Chapter 290: The Empress's Scheming
Shangguan Xuan's afterglow swept the sky, and the empress had been standing here looking at the sky since early in the morning, and she didn't know what she was looking at.
These days, the empress's mood is uncertain, she can only stand aside and accompany carefully, and she doesn't dare to ask a word.
In just three days, Shang Shuling's position changed hands.
The entire Shangshu Province is even more blood-changing, shooting left and right, and all six Shangshu resigned.
What's more, Your Majesty has approved the resignations of these people, and she really doesn't know what Your Majesty thinks in his heart.
After a while, an internal officer walked up to her side and whispered a few words.
Shangguan nodded solemnly, then stepped forward slightly and said softly.
"Your Majesty, Liu Xiang asked for an audience."
Jiang Qingying came back to his senses, but his gaze still did not leave the sky.
"Let him come."
After a while, under the leadership of Shangguan Xuanran, Liu Cheng walked to the door of Fenglin Palace.
"Chen Liucheng, see Your Majesty."
Jiang Qingying turned his head and glanced at it, and said indifferently.
"What's the matter with Liu Qing?"
"I heard that Your Majesty has approved the resignation of the entire Shangshu Province?"
"That's the thing."
"Your Majesty!" Liu Cheng's voice raised a point, "Your Majesty must not!" β
Shangguan Xuanran breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, someone finally came to persuade His Majesty.
It's not good for her to intervene too much about the affairs of the court.
His Majesty didn't allow her to go to King Jin, so she was really anxious in the past two days.
However, Jiang Qingying seemed to be unable to enter the oil and salt.
"Why not?"
"The Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of War, these are all important three departments related to the operation of the country.
His Majesty wants to implement the new policy, and he cannot do without the assistance of Shangshu Province. β
The empress was unimpressed.
"They're gone, I'm still with you.
Moreover, those Jinshi students selected by me can also be entrusted with important tasks.
Without party strife, the operation of the imperial court will be smoother.
I am a big and powerful country, and without this group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, will it still collapse? β
Liu Cheng opened his mouth, party strife? What partisanship?
You have captured the heart of King Jin, hundreds of officials are like a family, where is there still party strife?
He took a deep breath and said slowly.
"Your Majesty, whether you want to implement a new policy or rectify the rule of officials, you need to do it step by step, and you can't rush it.
What's more, now that the world has been decided, it is not appropriate to make any more big moves. β
Jiang Qingying seemed to be tired of listening to Liu Cheng's chatter and began to change the topic.
"Xiahou Xun died in battle, and his son also experienced a period of training in Zhongshu Province, let him go to Shangshu Province to take charge of himself."
Regarding Xiahou Xun's death, she actually felt guilty in her heart.
If the person who commanded the troops in the Western Territory at that time was not her but Li Yunsheng, maybe Xiahou Xun would not have fallen into the ambush of the Western Zhou.
Since she can't make up for Xiahou Xun, she can only make up for Xiahou Xun's descendants.
"Obey." Liu Cheng still didn't give up, "Your Majesty, those people from Shangshu Province ......"
"I have approved their resignation, and I will never change it."
After a pause, Jiang Qingying changed her serious tone.
"Liu Qing, if there is a problem, we must solve it, not avoid it.
As for the vacancy in Shangshu Province, you and Huo Qing will jointly draw up a waiting list and give it to me tomorrow. β
Seeing that the empress had made up her mind, Liu Cheng could only swallow back what she wanted to say.
He always felt that the empress had changed, but he couldn't say exactly where it had changed.
"Minister, obey the order."
Jiang Qingying waved his hand.
"It's nothing, Liu Qing will retreat first."
Liu Cheng rolled his eyes and said immediately.
"Minister, retire."
After speaking, he hurriedly left the palace, and then went straight to the Li Mansion.
Since the empress couldn't make sense, he could only go to Li Yunsheng.
Lee House.
Li Yunsheng was about to go out, and Liu Quan hurriedly entered the house.
"Xiangye."
Syllable!
Liu Quan gave himself a mouthful and changed his words.
"The King."
He has been calling him Xiangye for so many years, so he always forgets to change his words.
Burst!
Li Yunsheng, who was drinking tea, heard this name and squirted out all the tea.
He can't be blamed for this, it's really that the voice in Daji's mouth is too deep into the bone marrow.
As soon as he heard the title of the king, he felt as if he had become the king.
This title came out of Liu Quan's mouth, but he couldn't think of Daji at all.
cough cough cough ......
Liu Quan stepped forward with a concerned face and gently patted Li Yunsheng's back.
"What's wrong with you, King?"
Syllable!
Li Yunsheng stretched out his hand and patted Liu Quan's forehead.
"Don't call the king!"
Liu Quan covered his head and said with an aggrieved expression.
"You've been crowned king, shouldn't you be called king?"
Li Yunsheng was speechless for a while, and it was indeed not wrong to say this, but the title of king sounded too awkward.
"Call it the prince."
"Lord Wang?" Liu Quan rubbed his head, "This is not in line with etiquette." β
If it is an ordinary king, it should naturally be called the prince.
However, the prince of his family, the feudal land, the establishment of the Jin Kingdom, and the establishment of hundreds of officials, this is not comparable to ordinary princes.
Li Yunsheng raised his hand, Liu Quan's neck immediately shrank, and he opened his mouth to understand the current affairs.
"Lord Wang."
Li Yunsheng nodded in satisfaction.
"What's the matter?"
"Liu Xiang is here, saying that he has something important to discuss with you."
Syllable!
Another slap landed on Liu Quan's head.
"Don't hurry up yet, please!"
As soon as the words fell, Liu Cheng had already walked in.
"I've seen King Jin."
"Liu Xiang doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat." Li Yunsheng glanced at Liu Cheng with a sad face, "I don't know what happened to Liu Xianglai?" β
"Leeβ"
Li Dang, he almost blurted out, and turned a corner again.
"Shangshu Province left and right, and all six Shangshu resigned.
There are also a large number of officials in the DPRK and China who resigned together, does the prince know about this? β
As for Li Yunsheng's title, he heard it clearly outside the door just now, so he naturally knew how to call him.
Li Yunsheng nodded, looking indifferent.
"I know about it."
In fact, he only found out about this matter yesterday.
If he had met Chen Turin, he might have prevented these people from resigning.
But now, the resignation has made it more real to lure the snake out of the hole.
Seeing his light-hearted appearance, Liu Cheng couldn't help but muttered in his heart: Could it be that this resignation was all instructed by Li Yunsheng?
"Is this what the prince meant?"
"That's what I meant."
"Yesβwhy?"
Even if you really want to establish the Jin Kingdom in Weidi, you don't have to rush this time if you want to gather the old department.
Li Dang asked for resignation, he understood the stakes of this matter, and he believed that Li Yunsheng naturally understood.
"Liu Xiang doesn't need to know too much about this matter, you just need to know to do what His Majesty tells you to do."
Liu Cheng muttered.
"I'm afraid that Your Majesty is young and too impulsive."
"You, don't underestimate our majesty too much, she has her own scheming now."
