Chapter 257: Ye Xiangfo's counterattack
In Eastern Shenzhou, whether it is Southern Chu or other dynasties, or the major vassal states, in fact, the division within the government and the opposition is very similar, and under the supreme imperial power, it is divided into two factions: civil and military.
Like Southern Chu, before the invasion of Eastern Qi and Ye Xiangfo's exit from the mountain, it was basically the three giants of Southern Chu who were in charge. Zhu Gui is the prime minister of the left, the head of the civil officials, and the entire cabinet is under his palm. Dingnan Ram Qiu and Zhennan Company Ma Yue are from the Wu faction, as the two major military gods of Southern Chu, they are clinging to the north and south sides of Southern Chu respectively, and even the six departments have been completely divided by them. Now, the killing of the king by the tiger, the civil strife in Southern Chu, and the displacement of the government and the opposition have caused a big shock as early as ten days ago.
The three princes died tragically!
Sima Yue, who had always been on the side of the three princes, also died, and the entire Sima Mansion was bulldozed overnight by Mi Hu with thunderous means!
Ram Qiu was lucky that he didn't die in the first place, because he was still on his way back to Beijing when the bear was funeral. Before the Great War of Eastern Qi and Southern Chu, Teng destroyed the country, after the war subsided, he was ordered to go to Teng with Liang Yufeng to regain the lost land, just ended, and heard the news of the funeral of the bear on the road, and then turned around directly to find Ye Xiangfo, but finally ended up with no news on the road......
This has always been a mystery, but now, when I hear Li Yunyi's analysis, where can I not guess his fate?
Ram Qiu must be dead, and it is even very likely that it is also the hand of Ye Xiangfo!
But it doesn't matter if he dies or not, on the night of the bear's death, the Ram Mansion and Sima Mansion ended up together, and even if he lives until now, he is still alone.
Mi Hu "ascended the throne" strongly, as his die-hard loyalty, Zhu Gui is naturally high-spirited and arrogant, in the entire Chu Jing can be said to be under one person, above ten thousand people, and the six departments have been replaced by his own people, but unfortunately, he only stayed at the peak of his life for less than a month.
Nanyang City was broken, Mi Hu was tied up, and as for Zhu Gui, he was worthless, and he had already been slaughtered by King Chu Xian. So now, the former three giants of Nanchu have all died tragically in just one month, and people can't help but sigh.
This is the struggle for imperial power!
Even if you have great skills, once you make a mistake in line, you will die in the end, and you won't even have a tombstone!
Ye Xiangfo's army approached the city, and just after tying up Mi Hu, King Chu Xian finally revealed his control over the entire government and the opposition, especially when it was announced that the right prime minister Wei Zhao was in control of the cabinet, the entire government and the opposition were shaken.
Wei Zhao!
Hasn't he been retired for years?
In terms of time, Wei Zhao and Ye Xiangfo were people of the same era, and when Ye Xiangfo was in control of the three armies, the only person in the cabinet of Southern Chu was Wei Zhao! At that time, Zhu Gui was a younger brother in front of him! Later, Ye Xiangfo went into hiding, and Wei Zhao also unexpectedly applied to Mi Xiong for retirement, which once made people wonder if there was anything to do with it. Later, Mi Xiong agreed to Wei Zhao's application, but he also retained his position, and Zhu Gui was able to rise as the prime minister of Zuo.
Now, he's back?
"He's a person from King Chu Xian?"
Wei Zhao took charge of the cabinet again, which caused a great sensation in the government and the opposition, especially tonight, when the fifth prince Mi'an died in the city, although King Chu Xian did not come back, Wei Zhao showed up.
"Recommend the prince. ”
The opportunity that King Chu Xian was waiting for finally came, and he gave this matter to Wei Zhao to do, which shows his trust in him. But even though Wei Zhao started preparing more than ten days ago, and King Chu Xian made a lot of preparations with the help of his might, Wei Zhao was still a little apprehensive.
Until.
"Whew!"
In a secret room, the gray-haired Wei Zhao had been here all night, eating, drinking, and Lazar in it, and he didn't dare to let the servants clean up, and the one who came in to clean up was one of his most trusted Deadpools.
The candle flame flickered.
Wei Zhao was looking at the full of posts on the desktop in front of him in a daze, they were all opened, no matter what the format, there must be a sentence on it-
"Recommended by the ministers, the seventh prince Mi Ying is the prince ......"
These are testimonials!
They were neatly placed by Wei Zhao at one end of the long table in front of him, and the height was even more than three feet!
"It's almost here. ”
In the busy middle of the night, Wei Zhao finally felt a little relaxed. This is the first task given to him by King Chu Xian when he returns to the court, and it is likely to be related to the throne of Southern Chu for decades to come, so how can he not be nervous?
This is a secret mission.
Li Yunyi's analysis is right, King Chu Xian knows that even if the fifth prince dies, his control over the Southern Chu government and the opposition is not comparable to Ye Xiangfo at all, but if he really recommends the next prince according to the laws of Southern Chu, he really may not be able to win.
Those who are qualified to exercise the right of internal recommendation are not only in the court, Ye Xiangfo's military marquis above the third rank has this qualification, including Li Yunyi, their attitude is also very crucial! Therefore, King Chu Xian chose to act secretly, because according to the laws of Southern Chu, once the internal recommendation starts, the time limit is only two days, and the recommendation after two days will not count. After all, a dynasty cannot be left without an owner for a day, and it is impossible for internal recommendations to drag on for too long.
Using the regulations to achieve the greatest benefits through operation under certain rules is politics! Similarly, this is also the reason why King Chu Xian is willing to take the risk of dragging Ye Xiangfo outside the city.
"There are twenty-five more, so it shouldn't be a big problem. ”
Wei Zhao looked at the bright moon outside through the window lattice, and his mood was relaxed. In the previous estimates of him and King Chu Xian, the number of people who were eligible to participate in the internal recommendation of the two factions of Southern Chu was about the same, about one hundred and fifty people, but most of the martial factions were under the command of Ye Xiangfo and were outside the city.
"As long as they can't enter the city, they should be stable!"
Wei Zhao's heart was like a big stone falling to the ground. At this time, the internal recommendations in front of him all pointed to the seventh prince Mi Ying, and it was also the arrangement of King Chu Xian, more than 110 copies, in his opinion, the rest of the Wen faction did not come, either swaying, or abstaining. But no matter what, as long as Ye Xiangfo and the others couldn't enter the city, Wei Zhao was not afraid.
If no one can get in, how can I submit an internal recommendation quota?
Even if everyone can change their choice at will before the final decision, there are only twenty-five people......
"No teeth. ”
Wei Zhao was relaxed, and he was even in the mood to bend down and pick up the bamboo strip and hook the fire. At this time, it was early winter, and although Chu Jing was located in the south of Dongshenzhou, this season was still a little cold, not to mention that Wei Zhao was old and indeed not resistant to frost.
Just as he was looking at the more and more vigorous fire, suddenly.
Tuk-tuk.
There was a knock at the secret door, Wei Zhao woke up, and the knock happened to fall, and a whisper came:
"Guogong, Shen Shibin, a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, handed over the letter. ”
Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows, immediately stepped on the mechanism on the soles of his feet, and said, "Come in." ”
He had been familiar with this action for most of the night, and sure enough, the secret door opened, revealing the figure of Deadpool outside, holding two letters in his hands. Wei Zhao's gaze subconsciously swept over, and he suddenly paused.
Two?
"This kind of thing, there are still people who are lazy?!"
"After this matter is over, I will definitely give it to King Chu Xian!"
Wei Zhao was a little angry, after all, he had been busy here for most of the night day and night, and there were still people who were lazy and didn't personally submit internal recommendations, how could he not be angry?
"Whose is the second one?"
Wei Zhao said angrily, and was about to take the letter from Deadpool's hand, but at this moment, he didn't see it, and a trace of panic and helplessness flashed in Deadpool's eyes.
"Yes...... It is the king of Zhenchu. ”
"King Zhenchu?"
"This guy is really ......"
Wei Zhao scolded and scolded, and was about to vent the depression and irritability in his heart, when suddenly, his heart twitched, his arms stiffened, and the two letters that had just fallen into his hands almost fell to the ground, only feeling like a thousand pounds!
King of Zhenchu.
Ye Xiangfo?!
This is his internal recommendation post?!
Wei Zhao didn't care about driving Deadpool, his spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly opened it, only to see that it was clearly written-
"Recommended by the minister, the Nine Emperor Princes Mi Xuan is the prince......"
Appeared!
But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that this internal recommendation letter is actually Ye Xiangfo's!
"He even knew?!"
"There's an inner ghost!"
Wei Zhao has been in the government and the opposition for many years, and he guessed the reason for the exposure of this matter at the first time, and while his heart was shocked, he hurriedly opened another internal recommendation letter in his hand, the one belonging to Shen Shibin.
"Recommended by the minister, the Nine Emperor Princes Mi Xuan is the prince......"
Except for the different signatures at the end of the letters, the rest of the two letters are exactly the same, just word for word!
"Traitor!"
Wei Zhao's face turned red all of a sudden, and his eyes were even more so, almost spewing fire.
After more than ten days of conspiracy, at a critical moment, someone chose to betray, not only told Ye Xiangfo about it, but also changed his camp!
Syllable!
Wei Zhao was furious and slammed the two letters on the long table, compared to the three feet high at the other end, these two thin letters seemed to be nothing at all, but Wei Zhao knew that things would definitely not be so simple. These two internal recommendation posts are like a signal, an introduction, once a dam cracks, even a trace of it, will lead to the disaster of the sky collapsing!
What's more-
This is a struggle for imperial power!
The winner is king, and the loser will not only be the loser, but will also face death!
"The senior of the virtuous king handed over this matter to me, and there was such a big mistake......
Wei Zhao's face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping water, he couldn't have made it more ugly. Because he knows that Ye Xiangfo's counterattack has already begun! And as a generation of military gods who have led troops to fight all the year round, once Ye Xiangfo really makes a move, the offensive behind him will inevitably be like a rolling tsunami, out of control, and like a raging fire, the wind will pass through, and the gods will be unstoppable!
"My debut on the mountain again, and that's it?"
For a while, Wei Zhao felt a bone-chilling coldness that could not be eliminated in his heart, and his hands and feet were cold. What's more, he passed through the door of the large secret room and heard another footsteps......
......
