Chapter Ninety-Seven: Lin Heng Worships the Prime Minister

Ahya pinched a few thin pieces of letter paper, raised her eyes to look at the bright moon outside the window, and her eyes were red for a while.

Her younger brother, the disobedient little wolf who would ride a horse and trample on a rabbit's nest on the grassland, and the stubborn little boy with a dirty face and full eyes when he got lost, can now shoulder such a heavy responsibility.

Ahya clenched the letter with her fingertips, staring at the familiar handwriting for a long time, as if looking at Arthurs's face through thin paper, refusing to move away, but had to speak with difficulty: "Liunu, bring the candlestick." ”

These letters, including this purse embroidered with Beirong characters, could not be left behind.

Xie Wei was suspicious, if he found these things, thinking of the fact that he had betrayed him in Wancheng and leaked the military plane to let General Beirong go, he would definitely be suspicious again. At that time, if you want to gain his trust, the price you pay is absolutely unimaginable.

Who would believe that the princess of Beirong lurked beside the emperor of Daxu, without selfishness and conspiracy?

Besides, Ahya had a clear conscience.

Liunu looked at the purse and opened her mouth, trying to persuade Ahya to stay, but the words choked in her throat, but they only turned into one word: "Yes." ”

She knew that the princess didn't want to leave these letters. Thousands of miles apart, no time to return to China, these things are the only sustenance.

But for the sake of the overall situation, it had to be destroyed.

Liunu brought the candlestick and placed it in a porcelain plate filled with water, so that the ashes of the letter would not fall to the ground and leave traces.

Ahya's fingertips trembled slightly, she took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

When she opened it again, her eyes were condensed, but she was determined.

Ahya quickly lit the purse and the letters, watched them gradually turn to ashes in the firelight, and clutched the only remaining bracelet, only to feel her heart ache.

"Meow."

The kitten sent by Xie Yu jumped lightly on Ahya's knees, snoring and coquettish.

Ahya reached out and scratched the kitten, and her voice was very soft: "It's going to be fine." ”

At least for now, everything is going in a good direction.

Concubine De's status began to crumble with Xie Wei's actions against the He family, and the people who hurt him in her previous life took revenge little by little.

Zhou Yuanyuan entered the palace, and he had another person in this palace who could be trusted.

And Xie Ji......

Thinking of his tenderness, of his suspicion, of his exploitation, of his genuine friendship, Ahya paused, holding the kitten's hand.

She lowered her eyes.

So many days and nights, ears and temples grinding.

He was also moved.

After Xie Ji, who was worried about her, returned to the imperial palace, she didn't even sleep for a while, so she changed into court clothes and went to the court in the morning.

In the midst of the mountain call, Xie Yu sat on the dragon chair and beckoned to Zhou Zhong.

Zhou Zhong received his signal, raised his voice, and read out the will: "Bachelor Lin Heng, gifted and wise, has made many merits, and is now awarded the position of Zuo Xiang, leading all affairs in the court, fulfilling his duties and fulfilling his holy grace." Chin this. ”

Lin Heng bowed down respectfully when the decree was read, and after really listening to what the holy decree said, he was stunned in place and didn't get up for a long time.

Until Zhou Zhong squeezed a smile and reminded: "Lord Lin...... No, it's time to call Lin Xiang. Thanksgiving! ”

"Minister, thank you." Lin Heng subconsciously took over the holy decree, and the whole person was still a little unable to come back to his senses.

What did you do, why was you suddenly blocked as a left minister?

You know, although the right is respected, the left prime minister is also the prime minister, and he has to share part of the political affairs! Prior to this, there had always been only one person in charge of the DPRK and China.

Lin Heng's heartbeat couldn't stop a little, and for a while, he only felt that the eyes behind him were almost like knives poking at him. If you can kill with your eyes, I'm afraid you will be killed by the people under the He family on the spot.

Xie Ji knocked on the dragon chair, and his voice was slightly deep: "Lin Xiang, at the lantern riddle meeting last night, I promised to give you a big gift, how about this gift today?" ”

He named Lin Heng as the prime minister, naturally not for any reward.

He Xiang has been in charge of the government for a long time, and seeing that his plan is gradually progressing, the He family is already in decline, and it will soon be overcome. Now it's time to promote someone to take over the stall.

If Lin Heng can seize the opportunity, take over part of the government affairs in the hands of He Xiang, and also give the officials under He Xiang a place to climb after He Xiang's fall, when Xie Yu pulls out the rotten wood of the He family, the transition of the entire court will be much smoother.

It's just that now I can't completely tear my face with He Xiang. Although Xie Yu and He Xiang both knew it, they still had to put on a fig leaf, so as not to force He Xiang to be anxious and burn the jade.

Before Lin Heng could answer, He Xiang couldn't sit still.

He Xiang has been running around for He Yaozu's affairs these days, and the visible emaciation on his face has changed from a middle-aged man who can be called righteous to a gloomy face.

He cast a look at the imperial history behind him, and saw the imperial history coming out, kneeling, kowtowing, a series of actions flowing, and opening his mouth was blocked.

Yushi's voice was loud: "Your Majesty can't!" Lin is young and vigorous, and his qualifications are still shallow, how can he afford the position of Zuo Xiang? ”

Xie Yu didn't even raise his eyelids: "The holy decree has been read, how can I break the contract." ”

Zhou Zhong also said coldly: "There is a twelve-year-old Ganluo who worships the prime minister, and although Lin Xiang is young, the credit on his body has already exceeded that of all the adults. ”

The Lin family is one of the first people to follow Xie Wei to fight the world, and Lin Heng is now the only candidate for the Lin family in the court.

Yu Shi kowtowed heavily and did not back down: "Ganluo did not spend a single soldier to obtain more than a dozen cities for Qin. Lord Lin just opened his mouth and won a lantern, what is the use of Yu Guo? How can you pay homage to this one! ”

Lin Heng guessed the lantern riddle and competed for the lantern in the Taiping Building yesterday, and it has spread all over today.

Therefore, when Xie Jian said that he wanted to give Lin Heng a big gift, the ministers matched the number.

Zhou Zhong is neither humble nor arrogant: "When His Majesty inspected the border, Lin Xiang took danger with his own life, saved the driver, and helped quell the rebellion and restore the people's livelihood. If Lin Xiang is useless in the country, and the imperial history is in the court, what is the use? ”

Yu Shi was speechless for a while, and his face turned purple with anger: "What qualifications do you have to be disrespectful to this official!" It's just by His Majesty's sideβ€”"

Halfway through his words, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and fell silent, with cold sweat on his forehead.

Damn, I was so angry that I forgot that this was His Majesty's henchman, the commander of Jin Wuwei. offended Zhou Zhong, how could he have a good life?

Zhou Zhong still had a smile on his face, but he was obviously cold, and he didn't smile: "Heh." ”

He Xiang's eyes were gloomy, he glanced at Yu Shi, and secretly cursed in his heart that it was useless, and he was about to go out of the column to speak, when he heard Xie Yu speak.

Xie Yu's eyes fell on He Xiang, and he pulled the corners of his lips: "He Xiang, I am sympathetic to the complicated affairs in your family, and I specially promoted Lin Xiang to share one or two for you." If you don't want to, is it because you are greedy for authority? ”

His eyes were cold, as if he was careless, and with great authority: "He Yaozu killed people on the street, and he should have been beheaded, thinking that he was the only son of He Xiang, I only filled him with the army." However, one can be two or three, what is the situation, you should also take some time to take care of the upbringing of the children at home. ”

The meaning of this is actually a threat.

Xie Wei specially asked people to reveal the news, how could He Xiang not know that He Yaozu was not really assigned to the army, but was still in Jin Wuwei Prison?

Now it is specially mentioned that He Yaozu is used as a bargaining chip to threaten He Xiang to release part of the power in his hands.

He Xiang gritted his teeth, the flesh on his face trembled, and it took a long time to squeeze out three words: "The minister doesn't dare." ”

He hung his head, his eyes grim.

Left phase? Well said!

He has been sitting alone for many years, and he has overpowered Lin Heng in the name. Even if Lin Heng worships the prime minister and only gives him some marginal errands, what can he do?

Xie Yu retracted his gaze, and a mocking smile curled up at the corner of his lips.

He Xiang, an old fox, never thought that the officials under the He family relied on interests to unite, and naturally they would also deviate because of interests.

Now above the court, it is no longer the He family that is dominant. How can He Xiang win over these hearts that are ready to move, so that they can still stand on the side of the He family on the premise of having a better choice?
