Chapter 248: A dilemma
Lu Qian was silent for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said to Gao Weixin, "Since Your Majesty has made up your mind!" Then I'll have to obey!"
Gao Weixin saw Lu Qian's expression of resignation, and reminded him a little anxiously.
"Little Qianzi, didn't you understand what I said? If you go this time, there will definitely be no return! What I mean by telling you is to keep you out of the picture... Can be called sick... Or give up the position of secretary of the military department first. Let's stay in the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood."
Lu Qian shook his head and said, "Grandpa Gao, you think too simply... Your Majesty has already begun to fear me. No matter what I do in the future, he will be jealous of me. If I stay in Kyoto, he'll find a way to kill me... Instead, I'll go out and give it a go, maybe there's a chance of life."
After Gao Weixin heard Lu Qian's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "After you go out, Xia Yan will stumble you behind you, understand?" Without your supplies, you won't be able to survive the great desert of the Western Regions... Not to mention anything else."
Lu Qian didn't think so in his heart, the supplies were nothing more than money and food.
Now the income of the He's Chamber of Commerce is very high, and when the time comes, it will be a big problem to make preparations for Hexun to prepare some supplies.
However, if he can come back alive from his trip to the Western Regions this time, I am afraid that no one will be able to shake this military department secretary.
Crisis and opportunity coexist.
"Grandpa Gao, I told you. I don't really have a choice! Or choose to give it a try... That is, I had to ask you to borrow someone before..."Lu Qian said to Grandpa Gao.
Gao Weixin's mood is actually very complicated, Lu Qian said it well.
If he stays, his position as the secretary of the military department will not be stable.
"You want Rose, although he has a Western Regions face, but he grew up in Great Xia..."
Lu Qian smiled and said, "What I want is a face like her in the Western Regions."
Gao Weixin agreed, and then said to Lu Qian, "Tell me what you want, as long as I can do it, I will do my best to help!"
Lu Qian nodded.
Gao Weixin said, "Your Shangshu Mansion, I have already sent someone to..."
Lu Qian nodded, and then asked him to take care of some eunuchs and palace maids here.
For Gao Weixin, these things are simply a gesture.
didn't talk nonsense, and directly agreed.
Early the next morning.
Lu Qian got up early, this was his first time in court.
Tong Yao was waiting for him to wear an official uniform, and after wearing it, he couldn't help but admire.
"Master, you're so handsome when you dress like this! Or is this official uniform suitable for you?"
Lu Qian looked at Tong Yao's lovely face and pinched him lightly.
looked in the mirror, it was indeed much more majestic than the eunuch service.
Glancing at the time, he went out.
Xia Jiuyuan and Xia Yan are now eager to find his handle and embarrass him.
arrived at the Jinluan Palace early, and many ministers were already waiting.
"Master! You're here... I said it a long time ago. , a dragon that changes in the face of the storm!" After Liu Shiqing saw Lu Qian, he hurriedly walked over.
Lu Qian was a little surprised when he saw Liu Shiqing.
After all, after he went to the Ministry of Officials, he started from the grassroots level.
It stands to reason that he is not qualified to go to court, and it seems that he has also been promoted.
"Your kid has also been promoted..."Lu Qian said to Liu Shiqing with a smile.
Liu Shiqing smiled and said, "It's also lucky, wasn't Guo Shangshu promoted to the first assistant of the cabinet? The original squire was on top, and Guo Shangshu recommended me to be the head of the household department!"
didn't wait for Lu Qian to answer.
Xia Yan snorted coldly and said, "***, a change dragon in the first place? What do you mean... Is this eunuch a dragon?"
Liu Shiqing realized the loophole in his words just now, and just wanted to explain, "Second Highness, I didn't mean that..."
Xia Yan didn't care at all, and walked in front of Lu Qian, "It's only been a day since I became a scholar, which exposes the wolf's ambition..."
Lu Qian didn't plan to follow Xia Yan's explanation at all, just smiled slightly.
In Xia Yan's opinion, this smile seemed to be a provocation.
"You can't be arrogant for long...", he said, accompanied by Gao Weixin's sentence.
He glanced into the hall and walked in.
Seeing this, Liu Shiqing said to Lu Qian with an embarrassed face, "Master... I'm sorry..."
Lu Qian looked at Liu Shiqing's appearance and said with a smile, "What are you sorry for, no matter what you say, he wants to come to me for trouble." You can find it in any way! Let's go inside."
On the Golden Luang Palace.
Xia Jiuyuan looked at the entire court hall and said, "Today is the eighth day of General Huo's death, and I can't sleep well these days. Now the investigation has also had a result, that is, the countries of the Western Regions have united to assassinate our important ministers of Great Xia! So that we can have chaos in the summer! This hatred is a national shame! If we don't report it, then what will the people of the world think of our Great Xia! Therefore this vengeance must be avenged!"
Xia Jiuyuan is worthy of being an emperor, and his speech is still very inflammatory.
In a few words, several young generals of the Huo family were incited.
Kneeling on the ground, the mountain shouts Long live Your Majesty!
Looking at their stupidity, they are purely the kind of people who are sold and help them count their money.
"I'm ready to send an army of 200,000 to sweep through the Western Regions! I don't know, which general would like to go?" Seeing this, Xia Jiuyuan said.
Several people from the Huo family army got up one after another, expressing their willingness to go.
Of course, except for some generals of the Huo family, they volunteered.
No one wants to go either.
After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the crusade against the Western Regions is not so simple.
After all, where is the Western Regions?
How many countries are there?
How long has it been?
Since ancient times, there has never been a general who has gone out to the Western Regions with soldiers and horses.
"Good! If General Huo knew your mind in the Heavenly Spirit, he would definitely be moved! However, going to the Western Regions this time is something that I have never done in Great Xia, and even in the Great Zhou and Beiliang that border us. There will certainly be a lot of dangers along the way. The new Shangshu, Lu Qian is proficient in the art of war! I ordered him to be the commander of the three armies, and to go on a crusade against the Western Regions instead of me! Avenge the death of our Great Xia's humerus ministers!" Xia Jiuyuan got up and said impassionedly.
In Lu Qian's heart, there were 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping past.
I thought he would ask for his opinion.
Who knows, he didn't even ask for his opinion.
It was announced directly.
At this time, Xia Yan came out and pointed at Lu Qian and said, "Lu Shangshu, looking at your expression, you don't seem to be very willing? Don't you support the Western Expedition? Still don't support Huo Jiajun's revenge?"
After Xia Yan finished speaking, the generals of the Huo family looked at Lu Qian with burning eyes.
Lu Qian can see it.
The two men forced him to agree, and put him in a dilemma.
If, if he says not a word, then he will offend the entire Huo Jiajun.
The best emperor
