Chapter 221: Recommending Candidates

Lu Xuanqing glanced down, and was about to squat down, but the prince who had been in the corner hurriedly stepped forward at this time, picked up the military report quickly and neatly, and respectfully presented it to Lu Xuanqing with both hands and smiled.

"Prime Minister Lu Cheng, please!"

Lu Xuanqing was slightly stunned, then bowed slightly, and apologized to the princess: "Thank you, princess." ”

The prince hurriedly made a frightened and respectful gesture, and Lu Xuanqing took over the border emergency report.

When the Nine Emperor Princes next to him saw this scene, his expression was very displeased, but the prince was the imperial eunuch next to Emperor Great Xia, and he couldn't say anything, but he felt that Lu Xuanqing was too coquettish, and he didn't hide his expression, and rolled his eyes in front of Emperor Great Xia.

Emperor Daxia didn't say anything, one was his son, and the other was the prime minister of the dynasty, although Lu Xuan was young and promising, and he also worshiped the prime minister, but in the end he couldn't compare to the royal dignity.

Moreover, this matter is not a big deal at all in the border emergency report.

Emperor Great Xia only wanted to know what the Nine Emperor Princes and Lu Xuanqing thought about it now, so almost when Lu Xuanqing opened the border pass emergency report, Emperor Great Xia couldn't help but asked.

"Prime Minister Lu, what do you think, today's news seems to be faster than mine, I just read this border emergency report, you will be here soon, want to come...... I think I already have a success in my heart, right? ”

When the Nine Emperors heard his father's slightly yin and yang strange words, he didn't dare to touch his head at this time, so he naturally wanted to target Lu Xuanqing, so he arched his hand at Emperor Great Xia.

"Father, Erchen has been paying attention to the affairs of the frontier, the content of this border emergency report, Erchen doesn't know, but Erchen has indeed been dissatisfied with the barbarians for a long time, Erchen came over today, just to discuss with his father, but not as well-informed as his father."

"It's Prime Minister Lu Cheng...... usually looks silent, and has been recuperating in the house during this time, but I didn't expect the news to be known so quickly, it seems that it is usually the son who has lost his eyes! ”

Everyone can hear the targeting in the tone of the Nine Emperor Princes, Lu Xuanqing is not stupid, and he is extremely smart, where do you not know?

However, in the face of the accusations of the Nine Emperor Princes and their guidance, Lu Xuanqing just handed the border pass emergency report to the Nine Emperor Princes.

The Nine Emperors subconsciously took it, and after reacting, he wanted to continue, but Lu Xuanqing didn't give him this opportunity.

Lu Xuanqing looked at Emperor Daxia, arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the affairs of the border pass can be big or small, and the barbarians have become more and more arrogant recently, they are deliberately provoking, if they continue to do so, they will only make their ambitions swell, maybe they will continue to attack, and when the time comes, it will be the people of our frontier who will be disturbed by the war, they are the people of our Great Xia Kingdom, and the barbarians cannot be trampled on!" ”

The Nine Emperor Princes listened to Lu Xuanqing for a long time, but he didn't say that it was a countermeasure, and he didn't bother to listen to his nonsense anymore, but directly snatched the words and said to Emperor Great Xia.

"Father, Erchen thinks that we really can't let the barbarians be so arrogant anymore, since they dare to provoke, then we have to beat them hard, Erchen feels that we should send troops to suppress it, and let them know how powerful our Great Xia Kingdom is!"

Emperor Daxia also meant this, and the reason why he didn't make this decision directly was mainly because there was no one available in the court now.

That's right, he promised a Great Xia Kingdom, and there were no generals to use, and there were generals, but there was no way to be competent for the duties of a general, otherwise, he would have already sent troops to suppress it.

When the barbarians provoked for the first time, they would not let it go easily, and now when they heard the words of the Nine Emperor Princes, the Great Xia Emperor was not polite, looked at the two of them and asked.

"Who are your candidates? Sending troops is naturally my idea, but I have to admit that those guys of the barbarians have grown up on horseback, and if they want to deal with it, it is not so easy, there is no outstanding general, and if they want to win the battle, they are afraid that it will be difficult. ”

This is also the heart of Emperor Great Xia.

If they send troops to suppress it, not only will they not suppress it, but they will lose the battle, it will be a big joke in the world, not only will it damage the prestige of their Great Xia Kingdom, but it will make jokes.

It is estimated that other small countries around will be ready to move, after all, they sent troops to suppress and lost the battle, doesn't that make others think that their Great Xia Kingdom is weak?

This is definitely not what Emperor Daxia wants to see.

Therefore, this recommended candidate must be powerful enough, otherwise, if he is sent out, it will be self-inflicted, anyway, this general who went to suppress it has a heavy responsibility, and it is not something that ordinary people can do.

The Nine Emperors were very excited, and when they heard Emperor Daxia's words, they immediately said: "Father Qi, the son does have a good candidate, Qi Rongwei of the Qi family, he can be qualified for the position of general, he is now thirty years old, in the prime of life, has been on the battlefield, and has strong martial arts, but he can take on a big responsibility!" ”

Hearing the words of the Nine Emperor Princes, Emperor Daxia frowned, and then spoke: "This Qi Rongwei...... I know that, as you said, they are the best of their age, but although they have been on the battlefield, they may still be a little lacking in experience. ”

Emperor Daxia did not directly refuse the Nine Emperor Princes, but moved his gaze to Lu Xuanqing's body, looked at Lu Xuanqing and asked.

"Prime Minister Lu, why haven't you been talking since then? I ask you what you think, now that the Nine Emperor Princes have recommended candidates, what do you think of this Qi Rongwei? ”

Lu Xuanqing seemed to have received an order from Emperor Daxia before he spoke.

"Emperor Qi, Weichen feels that this Qi Rongwei is not suitable, the so-called experience, the so-called battlefield, but it is to transport grain and grass after the war, this is not any experience at all, and this Qi Rongwei's deeds, Weichen also understands."

"At the beginning, he was a young general recommended by the family, and finally he was slowly promoted and became a military general in the capital, but as far as the minister knows, he has no military exploits, and even this Qi Rongwei has not even been a martial champion, so he is not strong in martial arts at all, maybe he is strong in martial arts, but there is no proof."

"So Weichen thinks that this Qi Rongwei is just a false name, and he is not a real soldier at all, speaking of experience, maybe it is not as good as an ordinary soldier casually in the frontier, at least their battlefield experience is real."

Lu Xuanqing's words were unceremoniously.

The Nine Emperor Princes were really angry, he looked at Lu Xuanqing, sneered and mocked: "Prime Minister Lu, this is said lightly, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, right?" You are a Wenchen, how do you know about military generals? ”

"Besides, now looking at the capital, the generals are old and young, except for the Qi Rongwei I said is in the prime of life, who can go?"

Lu Xuanqing glanced at the Nine Emperor Princes lightly, looking still indifferent and not angry at all.

In fact, his emotions really did not have any waves, and he just said calmly about the provocation of the Nine Emperor Princes.

"Nine Emperor Princes, you can't say that, even if the military generals in the capital are old and young, it is more suitable than this Qi Rongwei, the old generals have experience, and the young generals have martial arts."

"This Qi Rongwei is not slippery, he is tall among the short, not to mention, he is not tall yet, the most important thing is that Weichen does have a suitable candidate and wants to recommend it to the emperor."

The Nine Emperor Princes were refuted by Lu Xuanqing unhurriedly, and asked angrily in his heart.

"Do you have the right person? The capital is such a big place, why don't I know that someone is suitable for this general? Who is that person you are talking about? ”

Emperor Daxia also felt that Lu Xuanqing was hanging his appetite, and said angrily: "Okay, Prime Minister Lu, if you really have any suitable candidates, just say quickly, now the affairs of the frontier are very urgent, I can't allow you to drag my feet here, hurry up and say, who is it!" ”

Lu Xuanqing smiled directly at Emperor Daxia and said, "Naturally, it is the eldest young master of Pingbo Houfu, the great general of our Great Xia Kingdom, Yue Lingjun." ”

……

A quarter of an hour laterβ€”

Coming out of the imperial study, the Nine Emperor Princes looked at Lu Xuanqing with unkind eyes, and his words were also very polite, with a slight threat in his words.

"Prime Minister Lu, don't be complacent, Yue Lingjun? It's also a shame that you have the face to bring up this person, don't blame me for not reminding you, some people fled the capital in disgrace at the beginning, but they let go and will not return to the capital. ”

"Just a few words from you, will you run back and slap yourself in the face? Just now you made a military order in front of your father, if you can't invite people back, I see how you can give your father an errand! ”

When he said this, the Nine Emperor Princes looked a little bit villainous, and said proudly with his chin raised.

"When the time comes, don't blame me for watching jokes, our Prime Minister Lu has always been a spit and a nail, but if you can't do it in this matter, the wrath of your father and the emperor is not something you can bear!"

Regarding the ridicule of the Nine Emperor Princes, Lu Xuanqing seemed calm and calm, and even said to the Nine Emperor Princes in a very gentle tone.

"Nine Emperor Princes, how can I invite people back, I won't worry about you, but you, the candidate recommended by the emperor, forgive me for speaking more straightforwardly, if it is really Qi Rongwei who became this general and was sent to the frontier, and when the time comes, he will lose the battle, the Nine Emperor Prince, the person recommended by you, is estimated to be taught a lesson by the emperor."

"Xia Guan proposed Yue Lingjun, it can be regarded as relieving the siege for you, and the Nine Emperor Princes are not grateful to Xia Guan, even if they still say such things, doesn't it seem a little too ignorant?"

It's really not polite to say this, not to mention, it's still facing the noble royal family, but Lu Xuanqing said it in a gentle and respectful tone, which seems to be yin and yang.

It was impossible for the Nine Emperor Princes to complain to Emperor Daxia for such a trivial matter, so he could only raise his finger and Lu Xuanqing and say.

"Okay, Prime Minister Lu, you just have a hard mouth, I want to see how hard your mouth can be! I hope you can really invite people back, otherwise, you will be blamed by your father when the time comes, but don't blame me for not interceding for you. ”

Lu Xuanqing didn't refute anything, but arched his hand to the Nine Emperor Princes and said, "Congratulations to the Nine Emperor Princes." ”

This is an eviction order.

The Nine Emperor Princes didn't want to entangle Lu Xuanqing anymore, he had to quickly tell his staff about today's events and let his staff come up with a way.

Lu Xuanqing proposed to invite Yue Lingjun back, this proposal, the father did not seem to object, and it seemed that he was specially waiting, and for the Qi Rongwei recommended by himself, the father seemed to be not caring at all, or rather, he didn't look down on it at all.

To tell the truth, if the father taught two lessons, the Nine Emperor Sons would not feel so aggrieved, but the father was completely too lazy to read and teach the lesson, which made the Nine Emperor Sons feel very embarrassed.
