Chapter 232: Candidates
"What?" There was silence in the main hall for a moment, and suddenly there was a lot of noise.
"It's nonsense!" Wei Cen even laughed out loud.
Even Li Jing felt that he was not suitable, although in his opinion, Han Xizai was indeed talented, full of poetry, music and literature, and he was quite popular with him on weekdays, but that did not mean that this close minister who had been in the palace for a long time could be qualified for the post of supervising the army, and this thin literati figure obviously had nothing to do with the military trek.
"Han Qing, forget it." Li Jing smiled bitterly.
At this time, all the ministers showed a slightly sarcastic smile to Han Xizai, who was standing on the left side of the Jinluan Steps, but he seemed to be not shocked by honor and disgrace, and looked at Li Jing on the dragon throne with his own eyes, as if he was deaf to the buzzing and criticism in the hall.
"Your Majesty, forgive your courage to speak out. This time for the post of supervising the army, the minister is the most suitable candidate, one is now not much contact with the officials of the DPRK and China, and he is also cautious about this matter, and the second is that the minister has been fortunate to serve by His Majesty's side over the years, and he thinks that he has no great talent but he is not without ink. Han Hee-jae insisted.
"Han Shilang, should you be a child's play about this war? Who is Li Yuan? I'm afraid you haven't even touched a sword, where do you have the confidence to brag about yourself here? Don't throw your life away in Langzhou then......" Feng Yanji said disdainfully.
Han Xizai blinked, stretched out his hand and smiled: "Look, Feng Xiang has made up his mind again!" Whether Li Yuan plotted rebellion has not yet been ascertained, how do you know that this battle will definitely be fought? Besides, isn't there still a Wei envoy? He is the commander of the army, doesn't Feng Xiang trust Wei Xiang? ”
The corners of Feng Yanji's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said with some deep meaning: "Han Shilang, I have never made up my mind!" It's just that I'm worried about your safety, you are a famous wise man in my court, not to mention that the battlefield has no eyes on the battlefield, and the march is also very difficult, if there is an accident on the way, what should I do? Do you say yes? ”
How could Han Xizai not know the deep meaning? was about to open his mouth to argue, but saw Li Jing waving his hand slightly and said, "You two don't have to say anything." Han Qing, you better reconsider a candidate for me. ”
Han Xizai said: "Your Majesty, the minister still feels that he is the most suitable. Your Majesty, why don't you consult your ministers before making a decision? The minister has no experience in the army, but there is always a first time in everything, right? Even important ministers like Feng Xiang who sit in the center often serve as the supervisor of the army, how dare the ministers care about personal life and death, and only want to serve the country! This time, let the ministers share the worries for His Majesty! The ministers will not disgrace their mission and live up to the emperor's grace! ”
Li Jing was stunned, frowned, and said: "But this time is not as good as before, maybe it is dangerous, Han Qing, are you serious?" ”
Han Xizai arched his hand and said: "At the moment of the holy drive, how dare the minister joke? ”
Li Jing still gave Han Xizai face, although he knew that he would definitely not pass as a candidate, but he still decided to give Han Xizai the last step, so he sighed: "Alas, it's okay, Zhongqing, do you think Han Xizai can take on this heavy responsibility?" ”
As soon as the words fell, Feng Yanji didn't even need to signal, and the opposition voices of the officials attached to him were already clamoring, and it seemed that the opposition voices accounted for eighty or ninety percent of the number.
Han Xizai sneered and said nothing, he wished that the more people who opposed it, the better. He is Han Xizai, a very small number of close ministers who spend most of the year by His Majesty's side drinking and writing poems, with His Majesty's temperament, the more noisy these people who look at Feng Yanji's eyes and act, the more disgusted His Majesty will be.
And one of the things that His Majesty is most disgusted with is that he was forced to do something by his ministers, which Han Xizai knows much more than the old stubborn Sun Cheng in the past.
Sure enough, Li Jing was already a little unhappy, frowned and shouted, "What are you doing?" What kind of system? ”
The ministers hurriedly shut up.
Li Jing said again: "Feng Xiang, Xu Xiang, let's listen to your opinions. ”
Feng Yanji said in a deep voice: "The minister knows that Han Shilang is a talent, but this is not to write poems and essays but to follow the army, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it." ”
Li Jing turned his head to Xu Xuan, who bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that Han Shilang is not the most suitable candidate. However, there is a suitable candidate in the minister's mind......"
This is already very explicit, Li Jing suddenly thinks that this Xu Xuan in front of him seems to regard him as a fool, as far as you and Feng Yanji have just sung and harmonized, how can you recommend a person who is not biased? Then he frowned and said, "Xu Xuan, what I asked was whether Han Xizai was competent, not whether you had a candidate. ”
But Li Jing still didn't think deeply this time, Xu Xuan's wishful thinking naturally took the opportunity to arrange his own people to go, but this own person must be a thorough "own person", that is, they are supporters of King Zheng, and there is still a clear difference between their position and Feng Yanji's faction, just because Xu Xuan is still thinking about the safety of King Zheng and Li Congjia at this moment...... But Li Jing refused, obviously there was no chance.
However, when asked whether Han Xizai was competent, the answer seemed to be about to come out, you must know that Xu Xuan had been aggrieved in the court for I don't know how many years, and he had always been jealous and resentful of Han Xizai, who had been favored by the saints, not to mention that Xu Xuan was nakedly on Feng Yanji's side at this time.
But things are often so sudden, and Seo Hyun's next words secretly surprised everyone. Although Feng Yanji and the others swore last night that they would be able to ensure the safe return of His Royal Highness King Zheng, at this time, even Emperor Li Jing was instigated to come to the top, but they did not mention the safety of their son, what is the use of Feng Yanji and the others' guarantees? Xu Xuan suddenly decided that no matter what, he couldn't let Wei Cen lead the army alone......
"Your Majesty, the minister has just thought about it carefully, Han Shilang should be able to do it. In the end, the prison army is not the main commander of the army, and there is no need to mix too many things to fight and kill, just observe the details and think carefully.
Moreover, the ministers who Han Shilang just said also agreed that there was no deep interaction between him and the ministers of the court, especially with Li Yuan, and there would be no likes and dislikes without a relationship, which was the premise of justice......"
Xu Xuan said in a deep voice for a while, not caring at all about the cold gaze of the surroundings.
Li Jing coughed a few times, then frowned, nodded and said, "Okay, one of you supports and one opposes, but the result is a bit unexpected for me...... It seems redundant for me to ask the opinions of the various departments under the Central Committee again, so let's ask the opinions of the people around me, young eunuch, do you think it is appropriate for Han Shilang to go? ”
Young Eunuch Liu, who was standing beside the emperor, seemed to be a little caught off guard, shuddered with a wave of dust in his hand, leaned over and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave thinks that it is appropriate for anyone to go, provided that he must fulfill his duties and not show favoritism." ”
Li Jing said unhappily: "You didn't answer me." ”
Han Xizai said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Young Eunuch Liu actually thinks that the minister can be competent, he said that it is appropriate for anyone to go, and he does not feel that the minister is inappropriate." ”
Feng Yanji said coldly: "Han Shilang shouldn't be too thick-skinned, where did Young Eunuch Liu come from?" ”
