Han Xizai pretended not to hear, and his eyes were always focused on the superior emperor Li Jing. Li Jing glanced around, in addition to Young Eunuch Liu standing on the right, he glanced at Wei Weiqing, who was standing majestically with a sword on the left, the veteran Zu Chongen.

Zu Chongen, this is a special role that the civil and military forces in the Manchu Dynasty dare not offend, since the founding of the martyr Li Yu has been serving as Wei Weiqing, and has always stood beside the dragon throne to protect the safety of the Son of Heaven, it is no exaggeration to say that to know all the major events and even details of the court since the founding of the Southern Tang Dynasty, just ask this veteran.

He is naturally one of the most precious legacies left by the first emperor to Li Jing, it was this ancestor Chongen who followed Li Yu with soldiers and horses to control Yangzhou, the capital of Yang and Wu, and eradicated Xu Wen's descendants and remnants in one fell swoop.

In the ten years since he ascended the throne, no matter how many candidates Li Jing's generals have replaced, only Zu Chongen's position is irreplaceable, although he is over the age of six, and his physical strength and martial arts have obviously faded, but as long as this veteran who has guarded him since he was a child stands beside him, Li Jing will feel extremely relieved.

"Zu Qing, do you think Han Xizai is the right person?" Li Jing asked.

Although Zu Chongen is old and has white hair, his waist is straight, his voice is loud, and his spirit seems to be no less than that of a young man.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Han Shilang is competent."

"Oh?" Li Jing was very surprised that Zu Chongen had such a clear attitude, and everyone in the palace was also a little surprised. You must know that this veteran is known for his integrity and uprightness, although he has the extreme trust of the emperor who is not envied by others, but he has never liked the affairs of the court, and the party competition between the ministers has been fierce for many years, but Zu Chongen has always been cold as a mountain as if he ignored it.

Therefore, often when Li Jing inquires, Zu Chongen always gives a perfect neutral answer, and never has any tendencies. But this time, it was clearly an exception.

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers in the hall smacked their tongues, over the years, there have been countless examples of people who have been ruthlessly scolded for trying to win over Zu Chongen, including many heavyweights.

Feng Yanji, Wei Cen and the others naturally couldn't believe their ears, Zu Chongen would actually open his mouth for Han Xizai? It seems that Han Xizai's ability is really not to be underestimated, and even this famous old stubbornness can be shaken by it, this is not an easy task, is there something about the relationship between the two in private?

"The old minister doesn't understand the affairs of the court, but Han Shilang, His Majesty can not only entrust him with the position of the center, but also often summon him to accompany him in the palace, obviously His Majesty recognizes his ability. And the old minister is most annoyed by someone to talk about things by experience, Han Shilang is right, there is always a first time in everything, when the old minister began to follow the first emperor from Rong, but only in his early twenties, if he really talks about things with battlefield experience, His Majesty will not entrust the important task to the minister.

What's more, the post of supervising the army is not a general who charges into battle, as long as he is loyal to His Majesty, has momentum, and has a flexible brain, he is enough to be competent. Therefore, the minister felt that it would not be a big problem to have Wei envoys leading the army, and it would not be a big problem to have Han Shilang as the prisoner, and it would even have a different effect. ”

When he first saw Zu Chongen when he was young, as a new escort to the mansion, he was only in his early twenties, and when Zu Chongen followed his father into Yangzhou, he relied not on the so-called battlefield experience, but with the courage and determination to become a benevolent if he did not succeed.

If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for the fact that the first emperor dared to use talents boldly, there would be today's glorious scene. Thinking about it this way, I don't think there's anything wrong with Han Xizai's self-recommendation.

"Even if you say so, I will be relieved, it's okay, I also have expectations for Han Xizai, since this is the case, let Han Xizai serve as Wei Cen's supervising military envoy, and lead the army to Langzhou together! Han Xizai, come forward. ”

Han Xizai took two steps forward unhurriedly, and walked to the throne with a calm face under the gaze of the ministers and bowed down, he could feel many murderous eyes staring at him, including Feng Yanji's seemingly smiling but cold eyes.

"Han Qing, it's rare for everyone to be so optimistic about you, don't let me down. This time, as Wei Cen's military envoy, you went to Langzhou to investigate Li Yuan's rebellion, but you must always remember your responsibilities and find out about Li Yuan's affairs for me, so as not to disappoint me! Do you remember? Li Jing said majestically.

Han Xizai nodded and said, "Your Majesty, the minister remembers!" The minister will do his best. ”

Li Jing nodded, turned to Wei Cen with a gloomy face, and said: "Wei Cen, although you are the leading general, you still have to cooperate closely with Han Xizai to find out this matter, and you must not conceal any favoritism, and you must be cautious in the use of troops." I hope you can give me a good explanation. ”

Wei Cen said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will definitely find out about this matter, if there is anything wrong with Han Shilang, the minister will also tolerate it first and not worry about him." But the minister must make it clear to His Majesty that the minister is the chief general of the army, and no one knows what kind of situation he will face after arriving in Chudi......

After all, Han Shilang didn't know how to use soldiers, and the minister hoped that when it was critical, Han Shilang would still interfere less and just listen to the minister's dispatch. If someone puts an obstacle in the way for His Majesty to find out about this matter, or affects the safety of the whole army, the minister will never tolerate it. ”

These words were obviously a warning to Han Xizai not to take the lead, Li Jing also knew what he meant, and he didn't want Han Xizai to dominate, after all, he was still not very at ease with Han Xizai, a scribe who was not familiar with military affairs, so he nodded and said, "That's natural." Han Qing, can you hear clearly? ”

Han Xizai promised: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister knows the measure!" He should obey the orders of the Wei envoy. ”

Li Jing nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered the draft decree to add the names of Hunan patrol envoy and supervising army envoy to Wei Cen and Han Xizai, and immediately rushed to Langzhou after the forbidden army was assembled tomorrow.

The early dynasty dispersed, and the ministers left one after another, and today the early dynasty not only had major events that were difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but also made Han Xizai the focus. In fact, most people already have a premonition that this huge storm is coming, and all they need to do is make a decision, whether to get involved or stay away? Although most of the ministers were attached to Feng Yanji, they were actually secretly considering it in their hearts.

And Han Xizai was suddenly pushed to the cusp, but it was unexpected, after all, Han Xizai became famous in the past and was appreciated by Li Jing, just because of his outstanding poetry.

At this time, Han Xizai slowly descended along the stone steps of the main hall, and the sun shone warmly on his body, as if it was plated with a layer of golden light. After a few moments, instead of appearing at the gate of the palace and boarding his magnificent carriage, he had been waiting at the foot of the stone steps of the main hall, just to solve the doubts ..... his heart.
