Chapter 186: Embarrassment
In the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, in Hu Weiyong's study, several figures were discussing in the room.
"Enxiang, my subordinates think that most of the affairs of the DPRK and China are now under our control."
"The younger generations of the cabinet are only sparse and shallow, and now His Majesty is in a wait-and-see attitude, without any support from His Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is difficult to support alone."
"Why don't we retreat and hand over these key northern places to the cabinet?"
"First, the few cadres in the cabinet can be transferred out of the center. Two, hehe. ”
"How do those children know how to govern? If they poke out some baskets, Your Majesty will be furious. ”
"At that time, my Zhongshu Province will ban the cabinet, and it will be pushed along the way."
An official fist at Hu Weiyong. This person has a Chinese face, eight feet long, and a well-organized face. Anyone who sees it has to praise a good official, and no one will think that this person is a treacherous villain.
But at this time, his back was slightly bent, and he was extremely humble in front of the short Hu Weiyong, and even called himself a subordinate with a servile face, but others did not feel that there was anything wrong.
"Guo Shilang, do you mean that you want us to let go of a few positions as political envoys in Northern Xinjiang?" Hu Weiyong sat on the top and gently twisted his beard.
"Well, that's a good idea. If you want to take it, you must give it first. ”
"Distribute a few of their political envoys in northern Xinjiang, and then get stuck in their money and food when they turn around......"
Hu Weiyong smiled ruthlessly. These people gathered here to distribute the eight newly released political envoy posts in the DPRK and China.
Since Zhu Su's showdown with Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu has either changed or banned many ills and old laws. Such as the tax package system, the road guidance system, etc. The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, so it is naturally necessary to send a few new political envoys to spread good governance.
Hu Weiyong's party is now overwhelming the cabinet party in the DPRK and China, and it is naturally inevitable to win these eight political envoy posts.
"It's just that the Northern Yuan Dynasty is still ready to move, if it does this, will it lead to the erosion of my Ming Dynasty's northern Xinjiang......" someone objected.
"It is precisely because of the stupidity of the Northern Yuan that we can do this." Without waiting for Hu Weiyong to speak, the waiter surnamed Guo got up and explained.
"It is already difficult to set up a political position in the north, and a small group of troops from the Northern Yuan invades the south from time to time, isn't it more difficult for this political envoy to do it?"
"This kind of difficult thing should be handed over to the cabinet people. Isn't it still teaching us to do it ourselves? ”
"If the north is eroded, it is a great fault of the cabinet and the prince. As far as we are concerned, it is just the right thing to set things right. ”
"You must know that what we are planning is not in the north, but in the court!"
"Guo Shilang's words are very good." Hu Weiyong stroked his palms and praised. "It's just a little bit of a North Yuan, and it's not enough to worry about it. If we can expel the cabinet, we have fierce generals such as Ji'an Hou and Yan'an Hou, are we afraid that we will not be able to defeat the Northern Yuan? ”
"Hmph, it's better if Beiyuan calls!" Ji'an Hou Lu Zhongheng stood up.
"It's time to let the Northern Yuan run rampant, so if we can pacify the Northern Yuan, why can't we get a national duke?"
In the study, some people frowned secretly, but more people looked indifferent, as if they had nothing to do with themselves.
"Ji'an Hou is brave and invincible, isn't Guogong still looking for things?" Hu Weiyong said with a smile. "Your Majesty has such good generals but doesn't use them, no wonder the first northern expedition returned in vain."
"In that case, let's follow Guo Shilang's plan. After the list of political envoys is drawn up, you and others will follow this list, and the officials can also follow the text in advance. ”
He waved his hand lightly, and finalized the name of the court with a word, and the officials below didn't even think there was anything wrong, so they all bowed their heads.
"Guo Shilang is also a good strategy! Judging from this appearance, in the future, a household book will not be able to run. Hu Weiyong casually promised.
The waiter surnamed Guo was overjoyed, and knelt down on the spot to give Hu Weiyong a five-body kneeling salute: "Huan, thank you!" ”
"Eun Xiang Zhen is Huan's reborn parents!"
Speaking of which, this Guo Shilang is not a few years younger than Hu Weiyong, and as soon as such disgusting and numb words came out, some of the other officials showed a look of disdain.
However, Hu Weiyong felt that he was extremely useful, and the feeling of being in power made him extremely intoxicated. The wrinkles on Guo Shilang's face when he picked him up were so smiling that he could kill flies.
……
"Hu Xiang, after this success, the government and the opposition will be in your hands alone. Under the door is Hu Xianghe. After everyone else said goodbye and left the study, Hu Weiyong's confidant Tu Cheng poured Hu Weiyong a bowl of tea.
"There's just one more thing to do. The five highnesses...... It doesn't seem to be very nice to see us. ”
"Before, I even used an excuse to play martial arts, and drove away all the children we sent over there."
"In my opinion, this son is still a hidden danger after all."
Hu Weiyong pretended to take a sip of tea. "His Highness doesn't want to see me, how can I not know?"
"It's just taking advantage of each other. He wants to use us to seize power in the hands of the crown prince, and we want to use his name to protect the officials who cannot be tolerated by the cabinet. ”
"It's ridiculous that the prince and the cabinet have nothing to do after all, and they don't know the truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish. Make up some kind of 'Jingcha', so that those officials who have ghosts in their hearts can only seek refuge with us......"
After belittling the cabinet of his old rival for a while, he turned the topic to Zhu Su.
"However, there is still a place for His Highness's name. In my opinion, Your Majesty will inevitably decree that he will marry the eldest daughter of the Duke of Wei. ”
"Xu Da, the Duke of Wei, is highly respected in the army, and this person is arrogant, but he is also from Huaixi, but he is unwilling to help us."
"If we can win over them because of the relationship between the Fifth Highness, it will be of great benefit to us."
"But ......" is painted with a melancholy color. In my opinion, although Xu Da is a martial artist, he is a very upright person. ”
"That's fine." Hu Weiyong said.
"I've bought off the Xu family's gatehouse, if he still doesn't know how to lift, then he will ......" made a downward gesture with a vertical palm.
Painted white on the face. This Hu Weiyong is too bold, he actually wants to assassinate the Duke of the Kingdom?
"If Xu Da dies, there will be no obstacle for us to take charge of the army. The five highnesses are useless. Hu Weiyong didn't notice the surprise on Tu Cheng's face, and still said as usual.
"When I am full-fledged, I naturally don't need to look at his face anymore. Use some small means to cook that shaft. ”
"His gold counting methods can be taken away to make a fortune......
The corners of his mouth rose, and the previous experience of carrying the left prime minister but being set aside made him understand that power cannot be given by others, and must be firmly in his own hands.
Now that he has tried his best to gain power again, he naturally cannot tolerate the possibility of being seized power in the future.
Only by standing at the pinnacle of power can we get power that will never be taken away.
"Before the Zhu family made their fortunes, they were not just civilians. He can do it, why can't I Hu Weiyong do it. Hu Weiyong said secretly in his heart.
was thinking about the sweetness of power, but suddenly remembered a frightened voice outside:
"Master, master, no!"
"Yongjiahou Mansion sent people to ask for help, saying that their Yongjiahou Mansion was surrounded by a group of soldiers for some reason!"
