Chapter 402: The meeting was held, but Liu Xing sneaked

A few days later.

The first plenary meeting of the Great Song Dynasty was held, and Hu Anguo ascended to the top and shouted, and really fell into the big pit that Liu Xing had dug out with his heart, not intending to pit him.

Although the first governor of the Upper House of Councillors, Hu Anguo, officially assumed such a high position, on the afternoon of the day he was elected governor of the Upper House of Councillors, under the pressure of a kind of counselor and fellow intellectuals, he announced his resignation from the Ministry of Rites and all other positions in the cabinet.

However, the hole dug by Liu Xing is not really to turn the Council into an ornament, so that its person in charge really no longer has anything to do with the cabinet.

Early the morning after Hu Anguo announced his resignation from the cabinet, Liu Xing walked into the temporary hall of the Council and announced a series of new nominations for appointment.

In this nomination, Liu Xing clearly determined that the Privy Council would be solely responsible for the future military affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, and the cabinet would only have the power to supervise and coordinate, and no longer have the power to dispatch all the troops at will.

As the main functional organ in military affairs, it is natural for Liu Xing to nominate himself as the governor of the Privy Council. The two same acquaintances, Liu Xing, nominated Zong Ze, Ma Kuo, Yue Fei, Yang Yizhong, Wu Jue and Liu Qi respectively.

Zong Ze is recognized by the world as the only remaining old commander of the Great Song Dynasty, Ma Kuo is from Wuju, although Yue Fei is not prominent in terms of military exploits, he is also a commander, and is leading troops to Jinzhou to participate in the most huge decisive battle in the history of Song and Jin.

Yang Yizhong is the current supreme commander of the Jinzhou Armageddon, and he is also the living king of Hades who makes the Golden Dog famous. The advisors of Wu Jue Xiandi and Xishu Provinces were extremely supportive of it, and naturally their prestige was also very high.

In contrast, Liu Xing's brother Liu Qi looked a little weaker in terms of prestige.

However, just a few hours after Liu Xing announced the nomination of the Privy Council, a news that shocked the world spread to Wutai City: Liu Qi and Liu Xi led the soldiers of the three towns to march on a rapid march on the fourth day, and suddenly appeared outside Bianjing City.

And with the soldiers of the two towns led by Liu Ziyu, they quickly formed an iron barrel encirclement of Bianjing City, and openly played the banner of "Qingjun side, killing and rebelling".

Qingjun side? The councillors were puzzled. Could it be that there is a traitor around the emperor? In the midst of the uproar of the councilors, many of the directors of the council reluctantly walked into the Taifu Mansion at the east gate of Wutai City, and asked Liu Xinglai what was going on in the capital and who was besieged by Sanliu.

However, as soon as those principals entered the Taifu Mansion, they were stopped in the outer courtyard. The few junior colonels who were in charge of guarding the Taifu Mansion only gave them one sentence: Taifu had left Wutai City, and the next nominations had been ordered to be announced by the Zong Shuai.

Taifu left, and quietly and secretly left Wutai City when more than 3,000 counselors held a meeting. When the principals returned to the council, the news exploded in the two halls.

However, amid the shouts of the councilors, Zong Ze appeared in the hall of the upper house.

A cold glance glanced around the councilors in the synagogue. Stopping their noise with his gaze, Zong Ze opened his mouth and asked loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have three questions I want to ask you, and I hope you will give me a fair and clear answer. ”

The venue became completely silent, and Zong Ze asked the first question in a loud voice: "Let me ask you, are all the people in the world better living under the former imperial court and the rule of law, or are they better living under the new law and system that Taifu Liu has re-established and reformed today?" ”

"Nature is a better ...... under the new law and new system"

"Of course it's getting better now......"

Many of the people in the audience spoke up about this fact almost without thinking.

Nodding slightly, Zong Ze was in the middle of those noisy answers. Immediately, he asked a second question: "Then may I ask you, can the imperial court in the past reassure everyone, or is the current imperial court more reassuring to everyone?" Is the Great Song Dynasty of the past really strong, or is the Great Song of today really powerful? ”

"This doesn't need to be asked, of course, today's Great Song is the most powerful!"

"Yes, yes! Look at the soldiers and horses sent out by Taifu Liu and Zong Shuai, all of them were caught around Jinzhou City as kings! How dare you think about it in the past! ”

"Yes, yes! The troubles of Western Xia have been a hundred years, and Taifu just flicked his fingers and let those party members become defeated generals under my Great Song Dynasty, which is naturally more powerful today. ”

The audience answered like this again, and Zong Zecai's face suddenly sank, and he shouted sharply: "But now there are people who form a party in Bianjing City to rebel. intends to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes. Guys, will you agree? Will all the people of the world agree? ”

"Ah......h

As soon as Zong Ze said this, he said. The whole house was full of shock.

When many people exclaimed in surprise, several governors took the lead and shouted: "Whoever dares to rebel is the enemy of the world, and whoever dares to blackmail the Son of Heaven to make the princes is heinous!" Never forgive, never forgive......"

"Never spare ......"

"Kill the thief, kill the thief ......"

Many state capitals were acting as officials at the same time, and when they saw their bosses taking the lead in shouting, they immediately stood up in unison, raised their arms and shouted in response.

As soon as the magistrate shouted, the entire synagogue immediately turned into a sea of roars.

Seeing that the crowd was excited and people's hearts were available, Zong Ze immediately waved his hand to stop the angry shout.

After everyone stopped roaring. Zong Zecai said loudly again: "Taifu has gone to the Leopard Forest Valley to arrest the family of the chief person of the traitor, and I will also leave tomorrow and rush to Bianjing to serve as the marshal of the counterinsurgency." Taifu and I hope that in the days to come, you will join hands and do your best to help the imperial court assess the rebellious thieves and appease the people of all sides. Can you do it? ”

"Can be done, can be done ......"

"I must do my best to protect my ......"

The echo was heard. But some people in the council heard the clues from Zong Ze's words.

"The family of the chief person of the leopard forest valley and the traitor? Could it be that the breed has rebelled? A counselor from Shaanxi said softly.

A counselor from Qinzhou beside him was immediately confused, and whispered a little angrily: "How come, how come, isn't the seed family from Taifu's master?" Taifu didn't grow up in Leopard Forest Valley since he was a child, who would do such a thing in this kind of family that doesn't miss the old feelings and sticks a knife in the back! ”

"Unkind and unjust, the breeder actually did such an unkind and unrighteous thing, he should really be destroyed!" Another counselor, who was from the army but came from Xichuan, heard the conversation between the two and scolded softly with hatred.

"Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, I am now entrusted by the cabinet and ordered by the Taifu to officially start making nominations for the appointment of the cabinet and the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Those few counselors were only a part of the people, and many of them directly scolded the planters. In this case, Zong Ze danced his sleeves again and brought the topic back. (To be continued......)
