Chapter 457: What is the Divine Mystery going to Do?
The general plan for recovering Shunfeng Harbor has been decided, and the specific affairs still need to be planned in detail, so there is no need to discuss them at the court meeting, and as for the time of launching the attack, it is tentatively set around the beginning of summer.
Li Wanjiang was most worried that when attacking Shunfeng Harbor, the tribes in northern Xinjiang would attack in the south, and Xiao Chen also took the opportunity to propose to add titles to the kings of the tribes in northern Xinjiang.
There is nothing wrong with this in itself, Li Wanjiang and the others all agree in principle, but Xiao Chen's suggestion to crown Wanyan Pingqiu as the king of Mo Qian is also unexpected.
Isn't the old prince Mo Yan Hong still dead?
A Moxian country can't have two emperors.
"However, as far as the minister knows, Wan Yanhong's physical condition has not been good, and he may die at any time, so we should also prepare in advance." Xiao Chen's words sounded like something else......
But what he said next made sense.
Xiao Chen thinks that once Wan Yanhong dies, his sons will definitely compete for the throne, but those princes are all wolf ambitions, and their relationship with our Great Zhou is also very distant, if any of them become kings, it will be very unfavorable to us.
It's better to support Wan Yan Pingqiu to be the king of Moxi.
There are three reasons, first, Wanyan Pingqiu and I have formed an ally, and between the allies, there must be non-aggression against each other, so if he becomes the king and the minister is still in Yanyun County, the Moxian Kingdom will never attack us.
Because the tribes in northern Xinjiang are very committed to commitment, once he breaks his promise, he will no longer be able to live in the local area.
Second, Wan Yan Pingqiu is a man of great talent and intelligence, and it is far better to deal with such people than to deal with those fools. In addition, the emperor should not forget that the Xian Xiao Queen Wu Luolan is also a heroine, and it seems that the only one who can balance her in the northern Xinjiang tribe is Wan Yan Pingqiu, and vice versa.
In this case, both of them will have to make friends with our Great Zhou, otherwise no matter which side we lean towards, it will be a catastrophe for the other side!
The third reason is also very important, that is, Wan Yan Pingqiu's mother Qiu Ruolan is Chinese, so Wan Yan Pingqiu is also half Chinese, and we belong to the relationship between blood and water......
Everyone nodded again and again when they heard this, and Xiao Chen was reasonable.
"Of course, this Moxian King's gift can't be given to him now, so it's best to hand it over to the minister to keep it first, and as soon as Yan Hong dies, the minister will immediately go to the nearest place to announce the decree to them in the name of mourning, and then ask General Qin Gang to send a force to follow the minister, so that the other princes will not dare to play any tricks." Xiao Chen's words are also true enough.
"Hahaha, what Aiqing said is also refreshing, okay, that's what I did!" Li Wanjiang laughed when he heard this, and readily agreed.
Seeing that it was getting late, and the big guys were tired after a day's meeting, Li Wanjiang announced his retirement from the court, and the big guys left one after another, but Xiao Chen didn't leave, because he still had a few things to do with Li Wanjiang.
He also left Li Shi, Chen Wenqi, Wang Anbang, and Zhu Xiaochuan behind, and asked them to go with them to the Qinzheng Palace to meet the emperor.
A few people are inexplicable, didn't the emperor just come down to court? Why do you want to see him again?
"Let's go have a meal with the emperor." Xiao Chen said.
It's definitely not as simple as rubbing rice, this kid doesn't know what bad ideas he is holding back!
But they all stayed, because they were all curious about what this kid wanted to do mysteriously?
Li Wanjiang had just taken off his court clothes and was ready to eat, and he was quite surprised to see several people coming together, and asked them what else was going on?
replied that he followed Xiao Chen to eat.
Li Wanjiang was also very happy, and hurriedly ordered the imperial dining room to send a table of banquets over, and had a few drinks with a few Aiqing today to enhance the relationship between our monarchs and ministers.
There is also the affection between father and son.
"Li Shi, how is your health lately? I have entrusted you with the errand of the ministry, although it is a great responsibility, but you must not be too tired, and your health is still important. Li Wanjiang's eyes when he looked at Li Shi at this time were really full of love, after all, he was born.
"If you go back to your father, the son-in-law is in good health, and Wang Anbang will take care of the affairs of the ministry, and the son-in-law will not worry too much and will not feel tired." Li Shi said busily.
"Well, this time Xiao Chen brought me back a lot of wild ginseng, and I will reward you with a few decoctions to replenish your body, when the seasons change, it is easy to get sick...... Why does this chair of yours look so strange? Li Wanjiang caught a glimpse of Li Shi's wheelchair, and it didn't seem to be the same as before.
"Thank you, Father!" Li Shi said with a smile, "Speaking of which, this wheelchair is also due to Xiao Chen, and he saw that it was inconvenient for Erchen to come out and go in, so he personally built it for Erchen." ”
As he spoke, he also controlled the wheelchair, walked around the hall a few times, and demonstrated it to Li Wanjiang.
The big guy was amazed when he saw it, only Gong Shouli's eyes were extremely red, although Xiao Chen, this kid is not a thing, but he is really ingenious, this thing is really thanks to what he can think of, and he can make it!
But you kid knows how to shoot the prince's ass, so you don't honor you and me!
It's not convenient for me to get in and out of this leg, and if I have this wheelchair, it will be a lot of relief.
"This is actually an idea of the minister, or Liu Fuhai of the Imperial Treasure Prison made it by himself." Xiao Chen mentioned Liu Fuhai, and by the way, he also gave Gong Shouli a little eye medicine.
Sure enough, Li Wanjiang snorted softly and glared at Gong Shouli, and the frightened Gong Shouli hurriedly lowered his head.
"If you talk about making the best use of your talents, I think Lord Xiao is quite suitable for the position of the chief eunuch of the Imperial Treasure Prison." Chen Wenqi doesn't say good things about this guy.
"That's not making the best use of people's talents, it's overkill!" Wang Anbang said with a smile, "Our Lord Xiao is now a feudal official of the Eight Classics, a second-grade official, it is said that since ancient times, all dynasties have been counted, but there is no one who is so favored and reused by the emperor as our Lord Xiao." ”
This sounds good, but it also has a thorn in it.
Because no matter how good Xiao Chen is, he is still a eunuch, and the fact that eunuchs are in power is quite taboo in all dynasties.
But all the kings who reuse eunuchs, if one is counted as one, there is no good end.
"Actually, I quite agree with what Xiao Chen just said, to break the stereotypes and use talents in an eclectic way, whether this person is from a jinshi or not, whether he is a eunuch and a slave, whether he is a traitor or not, as long as he can do things, we should boldly enable reuse, no matter what a white cat or a black cat, if he can catch mice, he is a good cat!"
Li Shi's words seemed to belittle Xiao Chen a bit, comparing him, a eunuch, to a cheap slave, but in fact, he was supporting him.
That's why these people are all human sperm!
Only Zhu Xiaochuan is more realistic, "Anyway, I think Xiao Chen has great ability, these things he has done, these achievements he has made, looking at our entire court, there is no one who can compare, right?" ”
"Master Hou, are you praising me or pranking me?" Xiao Chen grinned when he heard this.
Looking at the entire court, how many people hate me to the core, why don't you say it?
