After Wang Chen finished speaking, he looked up, the agarwood sprayed out by the beast furnace permeated the entire hall, Sima Yao, the son of heaven of the Great Jin Kingdom, wore a white gauze hat very casually, covered with a big-sleeved shirt, and sat behind the imperial case, with a watch seal on the case, except for the two palace maids standing on the side, only Sima Daozi and Wang Ya were sitting next to them, and the whole hall was extremely empty.

Sima Yao's voice was very kind: "Yuan Da, has the selection been prepared?" "This selected chapter is the chapter paper that Wang Min is writing. Although it is said that the authority is almost not in the hands of the emperor today, no matter how arrogant the scholars are, they have to give the emperor six basic faces, personnel rights, which is the most important power of the emperor, how much you have to respect it.

Although it is said that the emperor has no real power, let him see the personnel issues, in fact, it is just to give him face, but this is a matter of etiquette, if you don't respect, of course the emperor can't do anything to you, but political enemies may use this to attack you, so unless it is time to abolish the establishment, otherwise, the courtiers still maintain basic respect for Sima Yao.

At this time, Wang Chen presented the seal with both hands and said loudly: "The minister has been prepared, please Your Majesty to take a look!" ”

A small yellow door ran over, took the seal with both hands, and then carefully put it on the imperial case, Sima Yao smiled at Wang Min, then picked up the seal, looked at it from beginning to end, and handed it to Sima Daozi beside him, and said, "Daozi, look at it!" ”

Sima Daozi is the son of the previous emperor Jian Wendi, Sima Yao's younger brother, and now he is named the king of Langya.

Sima Daozi is now the closest branch to the royal family, and because the Xie family once gained great power at that time, and Xie An is different from Wang Dunhuan Wen, who is too suppressive of imperial power, so Sima Yao also has a little autonomy, so Sima Daozi now has some power, Sima Yao thinks that with Sima Daozi by his side, his throne can be somewhat consolidated, and maybe he can become a veritable emperor in the future?

After taking the seal, Sima Daozi browsed carefully, frowned, and glanced at Wang Chen, which showed that he didn't think so, and Sima Daozi didn't speak.

Sima Yao smiled and groaned: "Yuanda, do you know why all the officials selected this time are left to you to deal with!" ”

Wang Chen smiled and said, "Of course, it is Your Majesty's respect and trust!" ”

Sima Yao nodded: "The fifth Shengde of the Qing family, your father Wang Tanzhi has made great contributions to the imperial court, I will not forget it!" ”

Wang Chen knew that the emperor said that the great merit refers to the fact that Xie An and Wang Tan prevented Emperor Jian Wen from passing the throne to Huan Wen at that time, at that time, Huan Wen had military and political power in hand, and his henchmen were all over the government and the opposition, so it can be said that he had become Cao Cao's second, if he had to usurp the throne, I am afraid no one could stop him, but in the end, he still did not succeed, to some extent, this is also thanks to Wang Tanzhi and Xie An squeezed Huan Wen with words, Huan Wen has a good face, obviously wants to be the emperor, but he is unwilling to be a rebel and thief.

Sima Yao continued: "Hehehe, the same Wang's family, well, your Taiyuan Wang family is different from many people, I know in my heart, you have been loyal to the royal family for generations, your reputation is profound, and your talent is outstanding, King Langya has recommended you many times, I want to reuse you, the official Shangshu Lu Na has been promoted to the left servant of Shangshu, his seat is up to you to sit, others say that you are young and vigorous, and you are drunk and indulgent, and you must be a little restrained in the future, don't waste the king's affairs!" ”

These words, but the meaning is very deep, in addition to making a wish to Wang Chen as an official and clearly wooing him, the most important sentence is "the same surname Wang", which is very debatable.

Everyone knows that a very important factor in the Jin Dynasty's ability to favor the south of the Yangtze River is because of the Wang family, and generally speaking, due to the huge difference in status, the Wang family that people say is without exception Wang Dao Wang Dun's family, Langya Wang family.

And Sima Yao's words are clearly implying that Wang Chen has an opinion on the Wang family, which is an important signal.

The Wang family has always controlled the government, and the royal family is dissatisfied with the Wang family, which is normal, but Emperor Jin Ming was overturned by the Wang family at the beginning, because the difference in strength between them is too great, so even if they are dissatisfied, they only dare to come secretly, and dare not say it openly.

So Sima Yao actually dares to speak openly now, what does this mean?

But now, Wang Chen didn't have time to think about it, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, the minister must bow and do his best, and then die!" ”

Sima Yao smiled slightly, obviously very satisfied, and when he glanced at the seal on the imperial case, the smile slowly faded from his face, and said coldly: "Liu Yu's army, the momentum is like a bamboo, Ding Lingren revolted, captured Liyang, Murong Chong occupied Yecheng, it is said that he has sent people south, and wants to communicate with my court, now Yao Chang and Qifu Guoren have all held high the banner of righteousness, and the pseudo-Qin is now already stormy, and the building will fall, Xie Xuan, Huan Shiqian, and Zhu Xu jointly signed the table, wanting to mobilize the national army again, and then cut down the Central Plains, what do you think!" ”

Sima Daozi said without thinking: "Brother Huang, the battle between the north and the south has gone through four years, the soldiers are tired and the people are tired, although the battle of Weishui last year was a complete victory, but it basically used up the savings, and the next Northern Expedition was still fought with borrowed money, how to repay this money, it is still a problem?" Now the treasury money and grain are no longer able to support the war ahead! ”

Sima Yao listened, nodded and said: "You have a point, since this is the case, give an edict: Huan Shiqian will be reappointed as the assassin of Jingzhou and return to Jiangling; Zhu Xu took over as the assassin of Yuzhou and returned to Shouyang; Xie Xuan returned to Huaiyin, repaired the whole army, and did not use swords and soldiers! ”

At this time, Wang Ya, who was standing next to Wang Chen, straightened her waist and said with a solemn face: "What if Xie Xuan refuses to obey the edict?" ”

There was silence in the hall, maybe no one had considered this section, but Wang Ya was not alarmist, Xie Xuan led the troops outside all the year round, and the planning and scheduling all depended on Xie An, Xie An has now said that he is sick, it is said that no one has seen him, can the imperial court mobilize the soldiers of Beifu? Since the Jin Dynasty crossed the river, Wang Dun, Su Jun, and Huan Wen have all supported their own troops, and the lessons of the past are indispensable to be guarded against.

Sima Daozi snorted: "He Xie Xuan dares!" ”

Wang Ya said quietly: "One Xie Xuan can't become the climate, what if the two families of Huan Xie have different hearts?" ”

Sima Daozi chuckled, shook his head and said, "The two families of Huan Xie have deep contradictions, how can they be willing to come together!" ”

Wang Ya said: "The world is unpredictable, don't take it lightly!" ”

Wang Chen said at this time: "It was impossible for them to come together, but if King Langya was in a hurry, they would be able to come together!" ”

Sima Daozi's face changed suddenly.

Sima Yao's tone turned heavy and asked: "Do you have any good ideas, you are all my henchmen, at this time, you can speak freely, don't have scruples!" ”

Wang Ya said: "As long as Huan Xie is not a heart, it is easy to do, the key is to choose a suitable person to pass the edict, the role of this edict is very important, not only to express His Majesty's intentions, but also to be a qualified lobbyist!" ”

"Who's the best to go!"

"Wu Jun is too protective of Wang Xun!"

Sima Yao smiled with relief, Wang Ya's thoughts He understood that Wang Xun was quite prestigious among the Gaomen clan, and he had received the grace of Huan Wen, and had been excluded by Xie An, but he was a very loyal person, and he went to announce the edict, not only could he suppress Xie Xuan, but Huan Shiqian did not dare to act rashly, because he said: "Quickly summon Wang Xun to return to Beijing, add the servants, and go to the army to announce the edict!" ”

Sima Daozi said while agreeing: "The Zhongshu Ling Wang Xian said that he was sick and returned to his hometown, His Majesty has been allowed to play, and it is better to take over his position!" ”

Sima Yao sighed: "Wang Xian's brother is rarely famous, high and uninhibited, and the romance is the crown of the moment, but it is a pity that Wang Hui's elegance is unrestrained, I heard that he is not in Jingzhou, I recruited him as the Huangmen squire, and even abandoned the official Yue Jingdong to return, all the talents, the behavior is unbearable, the horse Wang Xian's work grass li, good Danqing, Gaomen Xun Wang can sincerely do errands, but unfortunately the sky is jealous of the talent, I heard that the illness is very serious, the above table said that people are old and miss their hometown, want to go back to their hometown of Huiji, return to the mountains and forests, resolute intentions, I am not good to stay, deeply regretted, The candidate for the Zhongshu Order must be like Zijing, who has both fame and talent, royal brother, what do you say? ”

Sima Daozi's eyes flashed, and he said with a little excitement: "Wang Guobao is a wang family, Your Majesty also said that the Taiyuan Wang family has been loyal for generations, and the minister recommended Wang Guobao as the Zhongshu Order!" ”

Just recommended Wang Chen to preside over the ministry, and let his brother serve as the Zhongshu Order, Sima Daozi can be said to be very close to the Wang family, and the direction of the wind here is too obvious.

Sima Yao didn't speak, and a sentence came out for a long time: "The Taiyuan Wang family is not just one of his family!" ”

Sima Daozi disagreed, and replied: "Your Majesty, the other branch, Wang Gong is a talent, Danyang Yin guards Gyeonggi, has a great responsibility, how to distract the court, although Wang Guobao is difficult to compare with Zijing's calligraphy, he can handle government affairs more than enough!" ”

Sima Yao was silent, and the hall was silent for a while.

Wang Ya secretly said in her heart, Wang Guobao is just a secretary, suddenly promoted to the middle of the book, promotion is too urgent, Langya King nepotism, too much, if he expresses his opposition, it is bound to offend the powerful Langya King and the upcoming promotion to the Ministry of Officials, the promising Wang Chen, thinking for a moment, Wang Ya said slowly: "On the door, on calligraphy, on romance, I think of a person, no less than Zijing, but he is not from Taiyuan Wang, but Langya people!" ”

Wang Chen's mind immediately appeared with the white fan, and he couldn't help but smile, Wang Ya had already said his name: "Wang Min in the service!" Wang Ya's calm voice continued: "You can let Wang Guobao enter the supplement, look at his talents, and use them in the future, what does Your Majesty think!" ”

"Hmm!" Sima Yao remained silent, looked at Sima Daozi and asked, "What do you say?" Royal brother! ”

Sima Daozi swallowed his saliva, bowed down and said, "Obey!" ”

"That's right:" Wang Chen suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister remembered something!" ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"

"A few days ago, the minister got a piece of news that Cui Hao, the son of the Cui family in Qinghe, and Zhang Gon, the former Zaifu of the Great Yan Kingdom, have gone to Liangzhou!"
