Chapter 468: I'm More Fit to Be an Emperor Than Him!
Jin Chengzhong couldn't help but admire: "It's still His Highness who is far-sighted and thinks thoroughly." ”
He changed his words: "However, now that Da Chu and Da Qi are competing against each other, if we are rashly involved, I am afraid that we will cause trouble." ”
Xiao Chen didn't know this truth, and patted him on the shoulder, "That's why you have to keep a low profile." ”
"But what you said reminded me, and you are sending some people to keep an eye on the negotiation between Zhao Xifeng and Daqi."
"Let's wait and see how long that smoke goes!"
"As for now!"
Xiao Chen waved his sleeves: "Since there is nothing to do, then General Ben will personally train the army!" ”
Half a month has passed in a flash, and the smoke has not been in court for half a month, and all the affairs are backlogged, which can make the ministers scratch their ears and cheeks in a hurry.
Hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together, and all they were waiting for was the little eunuch's words: "Your Majesty is unwell, and the dynasty is closed today!" ”
After the eunuch left, the civil and military officials exploded in an instant.
"Now that all kinds of cumbersome affairs have been piled up, His Majesty still refuses to go to court, where is this like words?"
"I'm afraid it's because of that incident, it seems that the rumors are only true!"
"How can it be good to go on like this, the two countries are constantly at war, and natural disasters are everywhere, but the Son of Heaven turns a blind eye......"
They are in a hurry now.
The Son of Heaven ignores the government and politics, isn't this a group of dragons without a leader, and the ministers are all following like headless flies.
Ji Yunzhang clenched his fists slightly, and couldn't help but lean to Zhang Dongyang's side: "Prime Minister Zhang, in this situation, do you still want to sit still?" ”
Zhang Dongyang was silent, not knowing what to do.
"Your Majesty has already resolved several matters of asking Prince Li for advice, and no one dares to come up with such thoughts on the cusp of this kind of storm."
"Nowadays, everyone is mainly concerned with self-preservation, which is nothing more than verbal depression, what's the point of distress?"
Here he and Ji Yunzhang left.
When there was no one around, Ji Yunzhang clenched his fists, and couldn't help it: "This kind of absurdity, who doesn't ask about state affairs and government affairs, and is selfish, why is he the king?" ”
"Nonsense, how can you say such a thing!"
Zhang Dongyang glared at him, "But this matter really can't continue to be indulged." ”
"Now that General Zhao and Daqi are facing each other, we can only maintain our composure, and a little civil strife will affect the direction of the war."
"If there is anything, just wait for General Zhao to triumph."
Zhang Dongyang is also helpless, Chu Yanwu is the king, and he is the minister.
Once the prime minister was under one person after all, he had the heart to turn the tide but was helpless.
When he was separated from Zhao Xifeng, he returned to his residence with his front foot and heard a sound of announcement.
"My lord, the Nine Emperor Princes outside ask to see you."
Zhang Dongyang frowned slightly, "It's quite timely for him to come." ”
"Let him come in through the back door and lead people into the backyard."
Zhang Dongyang also got up and went into the backyard to meet with the Nine Emperor Princes.
The other party was very respectful, and bowed again and again: "Prime Minister, I am here to disturb you today, don't blame me." ”
"Your Highness doesn't have to be polite, please take a seat."
Sitting on the chair, he Zhang Dongyang poured tea for him, but the other party took the teapot in a panic and poured it for him.
"Your Highness, why do you have to be like this, you are the prince of the day, I am just a child and no one is a minister, how can I bother you to replace you?"
"My lord said that I was laughing, although I am a prince, I am also from a humble background, and I tolerate jokes."
"My father has never been waiting to see me, and even those palace maids and eunuchs occasionally make me look at me, but if I don't have some money, I can't move."
"Now the identity of this prince is also in name only, and it exists in name only."
He sighed heavily, raised his eyes, and his shrewd gaze fell on Zhang Dongyang.
The thin lips are slightly curled, and he wants to speak again.
Zhang Dongyang has never liked to beat around the bush, so he took the first step to speak: "If His Royal Highness is here for the position of the crown prince, there is no need, this is not the moment." ”
Chu Yuntian was slightly surprised, but he didn't hide it from him.
In an instant, he said: "I know that now is the time when the two countries are at war, and Da Chu can't spread some rumors that disturb the morale of the army." ”
Although the crown prince can establish the prestige of the country, the reason behind it is that once he goes out naturally, it will be counterproductive.
"Your Highness is transparent, and if a wise man is like this, why do you still come to me?"
Zhang Dongyang took a sip of tea, but his eyes wandered over Chu Yuntian, looking at his attitude.
I saw that the other party lowered his eyes, and there was a lot of distress in his expression: "I can't hide it, in fact, I want to go with the army to fight side by side with General Zhao and jointly deal with Daqi to capture the fugitive Zhou Tianfu." ”
"It's just that I haven't paid attention to it, and I'm not allowed to go to court, so I just hope that I can borrow the hand of the prime minister to say two good words for me in front of my father."
"As long as I can serve the country, I am willing to risk my life!"
His gaze was determined, as if he had made up his mind.
Zhang Dongyang is not a stupid person, and at this juncture, he took the initiative to ask to deal with Daqi, which is nothing more than wanting to use his military exploits to make up for the defects of his life and death, so as to come up with more competitive capital for the throne to block the mouth of Youyou.
And when he found himself, what he said was only superficial, but he wanted everyone to see his attitude towards him.
This kid is smart.
It's a pity that this little cleverness is not enough to see in front of Zhang Dongyang.
"Do you think I'll let you be a gunman?"
"There is no hidden act at all in terms of scheming and calculation."
Zhang Dongyang got up: "Now the situation is uncontrollable, forgive me." ”
Chu Yuntian was a little panicked, and walked quickly in front of him unwillingly: "But aren't you loyal to Great Chu and want a virtuous king?" ”
"Now, there are some things that don't hurt to tell you, about annexing land, oppressing the people, and collecting taxes."
"On the surface, it seems that Chen Jin is doing it, but in fact, it is all at the will of my father, and everything is the result of his own selfishness!"
"I know that I am lowly, but I am also yellow, although I am not orthodox, but I have royal blood."
"I have a heart that loves the people like a son more than my father, and I also have wisdom and strategy, isn't this the ideal king in Prime Minister Zhang's heart?"
"As long as you give me a chance, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Zhang Dongyang is still the prime minister of the imperial court, above 10,000 people under one person.
Part of what Chu Yanwu didn't want to do was pressed on him, and he could now decide the direction of the imperial court with one sentence.
Besides him, Chu Yuntian really couldn't think of anyone else who could help him?
Zhang Dongyang was stunned in place, hesitating for a while.
"That's it, I'll think about it, Your Highness, please go back and wait for the result."
At this point, Chu Yuntian also knew that it was useless to entangle, so he left with unwillingness.
