"Ladies and gentlemen, if you have any opinions, but it doesn't hurt to say it. {Sui}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}" Li Longji looked at the suspicious minister below and spoke again.

After hesitating for a while, a waiter surnamed Cheng stood up: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say." ”

"Quasi"

The person who stood up was called Cheng Qing, who was appointed by the Ministry of Works, and in addition, he also had an identity as Boling's son-in-law, at this time, Cui's people were not easy to speak, as the "half-member" of Boling's Cui's family, Cheng Qing stood up decisively.

"Your Majesty" Cheng Qing said respectfully: "The battlefield is changing rapidly, no one thought that Tubo and Ge Lulu would collude together, and I didn't expect the so-called bandits, from beginning to end is a complete trap, Zheng Qiancai has just arrived in the Western Regions, I don't know where the situation is, it is not easy to break through from the heavy encirclement, the battle report said that Zheng Qiancai is full of wisdom on the battlefield, has repeatedly made war exploits, and is also very brave when fighting, Weichen thinks that the court should not be punished, but also rewarded. ”

"Okay, step down" Li Longji didn't seem to be happy, waved his sleeves to ask Cheng Qing to step back, and then said loudly: "Zhongqing, is there anything else to say?" ”

There was silence at the scene again, and the ministers looked at their noses and noses, and no one easily expressed their attitude.

The emperor's heart is unpredictable, now who can't guess what Li Longji's mind is, everyone knows that Li Longji loves Zheng Peng very much, Zheng Peng is right, but the defeat has little to do with Zheng Peng, Zheng Peng has Li Xiancheng above him, in addition to the senior generals of the Western Regions military, that is, Zheng Peng is insisted on taking a little responsibility, at most he will be punished, and it will not rise to the level of discussing the crime in the court, or discuss it separately without other generals.

You must know that Zheng Peng has made a lot of contributions on this trip, and he paid for the return of the souls of the fallen soldiers to his hometown, which is also a voice of praise.

This is an attempt to capture the first indulgence, deliberately bring it up, and block everyone's mouths first, so as not to make trouble with this matter in the future? Or did Zheng Peng make the emperor unhappy and make an example of him by killing chickens and monkeys?

Another point, Zheng Peng has a wide range of people in the court, and has a very good relationship with several important ministers, he is the fast son-in-law of the Boling Cui family, and it is said that he is also a partner with Gao Lishi to do business, at this time to say bad things about him, who dares to guarantee that no one will find him to settle accounts in the future?

After waiting for a long time and no one spoke, Li Longji was a little dissatisfied, pointed at Song Jing and said: "Song Qing's family, you are the head of the hundred officials, so you will take the lead and make a statement." ”

Song Jing didn't expect Li Longji to name himself to make a statement, so he paused for a moment and quickly said: "Zheng Qiancai belongs to the Yulin Army, and the Yulin Army is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and the affairs of the Yulin Army can be said to be His Majesty's private affairs, which are private matters and are naturally decided by His Majesty." ”

The Yulin Army is responsible for defending the important place of the palace, and its importance is self-evident, whether it is the selection of personnel or the transfer of positions, it is all decided by Li Longji, and others have no right to intervene and intervene, which is the expenses of the Yulin Army, and it is also allocated by Li Longji's private treasury, and it is not unreasonable for Song Jing to say this.

The words were said steadily, but there was no dry goods, and he wanted to kick the ball back to Li Longji.

Li Longji was also not satisfied, and snorted coldly: "Stand down." ”

After Song Jing returned to the team, Li Longji continued to ask, "Does anyone have an idea?" ”

Zhang Shuo's eyes rolled, and he quickly stood up: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say." ”

"Quasi"

Zhang said after saluting, he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Yulin Army is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, representing the face of Your Majesty. ”

Li Longji just wanted to speak, but he didn't expect Yao Chong to suddenly stand up, and said loudly while saluting: "Your Majesty, the old minister has something to say." ”

"Okay, Yao Qing's family has also expressed its position, exactly."

Yao Chong looked old, but his old eyes were not faint, on the contrary, he looked bright, and said unhurriedly when he heard the words: "Zheng Qianqi's performance in this battle is worthy of the reputation of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, but he has failed His Majesty's expectations, and the old minister proposes to leave Zheng Qianqi in the Western Regions, and make meritorious contributions to the crime, when to regain face for His Majesty, when to return to Chang'an, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?" ”

Li Longji nodded: "Yao Aiqing is really old-fashioned, although Zheng Peng said that he lost, he also played the prestige of the Yulin Army, the battle of Pangong Mistake was a stab in the back of these shameless villains like Ge Lulu, and it is true that too much responsibility cannot fall on him, according to Yao Aiqing's opinion, what did Zheng Peng do in the Western Regions to make meritorious contributions?" ”

A fine light flashed in Yao Chonglao's eyes, and there was already a subtle smile on his lips: This time the emperor's pulse has been hit.

was called Yao Qing's house in the front, but it became Yao Aiqing in a blink of an eye, indicating that when his words talked about Li Longji's heart, Yao Chong felt a little proud in his heart.

Li Longji had a cold face as soon as he went to court, Yao Chong had followed Li Longji for many years, and knew that Li Longji was going to make a move, so he paid attention at that time, and when Li Longji gave Zheng Peng "guilt" above, Yao Chong below had already begun to consider various possibilities.

Yao Chong knew the importance of Zheng Peng, Li Longji said to Zheng Peng, and Li Longji exonerated Zheng Peng for the first time, blocking Youyou's mouth, but Li Longji did not mean to explain Zheng Peng, which is intriguing.

couldn't guess the intention from Li Longji's face for a while, Yao Chong immediately started from the people around him, Cui Yuan and Gao Lishi are important people around Zheng Peng, Zheng Peng is Cui Yuan's grandson-in-law, Gao Lishi is Zheng Peng's partner, and the two have won Li Longji's trust, however, they both gave Zheng Peng the guilt, whether it was Gao Lishi or Cui Yuan, both of them were indifferent, as if they had nothing to do with themselves.

People are old spirits, ghosts are old spirits, Yao Chong's decades of life experience told him that Cui Yuan and Gao Lishi were not pretending, but really not anxious, and immediately thought of Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.

In order not to let Zhang say that he was beautiful, Yao Chong immediately stood up and stole the limelight from Zhang Shuo.

Yao Chong glanced at Song Jing, who he was holding up with one hand, without a trace, and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes.

Song Jing and Zhang said that they were still tender.

Song Jing's words just now sound stable and stable, there is nothing wrong, if Song Jing is an ordinary courtier, this statement can be called perfect, the problem is that Song Jing is the prime minister at the head of a hundred officials, a prime minister who faces problems and plays official oil, without his own clear position, in terms of officialdom, is a disaster.

There was no way, Yao Chong could only take the initiative to jump out and snatch this "color" back.

The thoughts in his mind were like electricity, Yao Chong's mouth did not stop, he muttered, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, the Western Regions are in turmoil, there are too many things to deal with, presumably the whole Western Regions are very busy, the old minister proposed, it is better to give Zheng Qianqi an errand of deputy supervisor to assist Yang Yushi, anyway, Zheng Qianqi has held this position, and his performance is also very good, which is also conducive to Zheng Qianqi's meritorious service." ”

The proposal that Li Longji appoint Zheng Peng as the deputy superintendent of the Western Regions was carefully considered.

Li Longji's topic was too sudden, Yao Chong didn't think about it at all, and he couldn't guess what Li Longji wanted to do, but when he found out that Li Longji wanted Zheng Peng to stay in the Western Regions, everything would be easy.

The deputy supervisor sounds like a deputy, but this deputy is very knowledgeable, and the amount of power depends on Li Longji's words.

The imperial history of the supervised army is a characteristic of the Tang Dynasty, mainly to supervise the behavior of officials in various places, there are imperial histories of the supervised army in all parts of the Tang Dynasty, and most of these imperial histories of the supervising army are used as eyeliners, like Zhang Xiaosong, who can be the "emperor of the soil" in the Western Regions, the imperial history of the supervising army can be said to be unique, mainly because Li Longji gave him the power to make his own decisions.

It was proposed that Zheng Peng be the deputy supervisor, and there was enough flexibility for Li Longji to operate.

Li Longji nodded when he heard this: "The Western Regions are in turmoil, Yang Ji must be anxious, Zheng Peng can be civil and martial, and it is not bad to give him a hand." ”

Speaking of this, after Li Longji signaled Yao Chong to return to the column, he said: "Yao Aiqing proposed Zheng Peng to serve as the deputy supervisor of the army, and he made meritorious contributions in the Western Regions, what is the opinion of the Qing family?" Or if there is a better proposal, you may wish to put it forward and discuss. ”

"What Yao Kaifu said is very true, and the ministers agree with Yao Kaifu's proposal." Zhang Shuo said as he glanced at Yao Chong with some complicated eyes.

Jiang is still old and spicy, he only guessed a trace of the emperor's heart, Yao Chong is good, and he has reached the emperor's vein, Zhang said that he once again experienced Yao Chong's political tentacles and vision.

No wonder he was deposed, the emperor was reluctant to let Yao Chong go, and was reappointed as the Kaifu Yi and the Third Division, and he discussed any major matters, this is where Yao Chong is old.

However, Zhang Shuo quickly rejoiced again: Yao Chong is powerful, but he is old and will soon become history, and his opponent Song Jing, whether it is strategy or vision, is inferior to himself.

Zhang said that even if Yao Chong has the past and influences the present, the future belongs to him.
