To give others a chance is also to give oneself a chance.

Liu Xing is giving Zhong Xiang a chance, so what kind of performance will Zhong Xiang make?

Liu Xing's order reached Bianjing, and that night Zong Ze issued a decree in the name of the Heavenly Council in accordance with Liu Xing's instructions, officially canonizing Zhong Xiang, the anti-Kang leader of the Southern Dynasty and the marshal of the Huguang Army South Road.

However, after Zong Ze discussed with the two of them, they did not completely follow Liu Xing's decision.

In the decree officially issued by the Heavenly Academy, the military rank was changed to General Dingnan, and the title was changed to the second-class Earl of Pingnan, and only the medal was awarded the bronze Baoding Medal according to Liu Xing's original instructions.

Zong Ze: What is this going to do? When Liu Xing learned the news, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart at first. Immediately, he quickly figured out that Zhao Ding did not participate in Tianshu's discussion, and it must be that Hu Anguo wanted to take the opportunity to win over Zhong Xiang to strengthen the power of his friends.

After sweeping away the second demon spirit interception circle on the periphery of the Surabaya abyss, Liu Xing sat in the carriage and looked at the secret report from Beijing, and first secretly cursed in his heart: Mr. Hu, Mr. Hu, the Chinese officials in the DPRK dare not form a party with you, but you want to run outside for the little master to win people to help you consolidate your power, right?

Wow, give you a face, you don't have a face. I remember that your kindness to me in Songshan Academy back then was to endure again and again, but you are pressing here step by step, right? Cheng, if you force me, I can't just tolerate it. What about the teacher, the master is charging in front and you are making trouble, and the master can't tolerate you anymore......

As soon as this idea came out, Liu Xing immediately issued an order to Lei Zhen, who returned to his side: "Go, pass on my order, and from now on, the Council, the Metropolitan Inspectorate, and the Privy Council will no longer be held hostage by the cabinet." Three courtyards and one pavilion stand side by side. Each has its own business and checks and balances each other. Juan Guo is also known in addition to Tianshu. Do your job as a Governor of the Council wholeheartedly. ”

After a slight pause and a little thought, Liu Xing continued: "Hu Yin was transferred to the head of the hall of Beijing Normal University, and he was also awarded the title of prince and young master to show his favor. Hu Xian was transferred to the general office of Songshan University Hall, and concurrently awarded the title of prince and young master to show his favor. Hu Ding was transferred to the general office of Yuelu University Hall, and concurrently served as the prince and young master to show his favor. ”

After stopping for the second time and thinking about it again, Liu Xing continued: "Liang Xing is also the acting Hu Yin's vacated post of secretary of the Ministry of Labor. With Su Dong acting Hu Xian's vacated governorship, Wang Juzheng, a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, took over Hu Ding's governorship. He Lian, the waiter of the Ministry of War, was reappointed as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and his position as the waiter of the Ministry of War was acted by Lei Zhen. ”

"Ahh

Listening to Liu Xing's order to say this, Lei Zhen didn't expect that even he would be appointed by Liu Xing as a squire in the military department, which frightened him and screamed.

After the exclamation, Lei Zhen shook his head and said, "Taifu must not, never allow!" Everyone in the world knows that I am a retainer and a soldier, and everyone says that I am actually your retainer. If you let a person like me, who has military merits but no great merits, go to act as a squire in the military department, I am afraid that the people of the world will not be convinced. You value your subordinates, and your subordinates are very grateful. But thank you. Your subordinates can't even ignore your prestige for the sake of their own fame! ”

Hear him say that. Liu Xing's face sank and said: "But master, the people I trust, only a few of you who will not hook up with the Hu family have not yet had any important positions." You're worried about me, so you'd like to recommend someone to me to take over the vacancy of the squire in the military department? ”

Hearing this, Lei Zhen shook his head again and said, "I can't be a squire in the military department myself, let alone recommend anyone to you." Because I recommended someone and really went to be the squire of the military department, your prestige will still be damaged. People in the world will say that you are conniving at me, a retainer, to interfere in politics, or even say that it is chaotic! ”

In the thousands of years of history of the Central Plains, the scourge of retainers in disorderly government is no less harmful than that of foreign relatives interfering in politics and eunuchs. Therefore, people in today's world, since Liu Xing walked out of Wutai Mountain, have paid great attention to Lei Zhen and Liang Xing, Liu Xing's retainers.

The attention of the two great ministers, in many cases, and even between the government and the opposition, is far higher than that of those governors and scholars.

Why is that? This is because all the people in the world are afraid that the two retainers will not know when they will jump out and become ministers. Take advantage of Liu Xing's trust in them to do mischief and do things that interfere with politics.

Compared with Liang Xing, the former commander of the Tiance Guard, Lei Zhen knew very well that he was not as credible as Liang Xing in the eyes of the people. At least Liang Xing used the privilege of Tian Cewei to avenge the people's grievances and correct the law for the court. And what about him? has always been just a follower of Liu Xing, and at most he can only be regarded as a lackey who accompanies him.

In addition, Liu Xing withdrew Tiance and Wu Ying the day before, and he had already issued a decree to pave the way for Liang Xing to officially enter the court. But as for him, without foreshadowing and falling out of thin air, he will inevitably be opposed by the people of the world, and may even be scolded.

He doesn't want to be infamy, and he really doesn't want to cause trouble to Liu Xing, of course he understands this psychology.

But there is no credible person who can use it, which is also the reason why Liu Xing thought of Lei Zhen helplessly, and when Lei Zhen's bad words were said for a while, Liu Xing couldn't help but be sad and deep in thought, wanting to find a credible person in his memory to be the squire of the military department.

"Brother Liu, I shouldn't have been involved in your decision on the government. But seeing that you and Commander Lei are so embarrassed, I would like to recommend you someone who at least you will also consider trustworthy and will not participate in the affairs of the partisan. Just as Liu Xing lowered his head and pondered, Zhao Jinzhu, who had been sitting on the other side of the carriage, suddenly spoke.

Hearing his words, when Liu Xing looked at her sideways, his eyes first rolled and secretly thought: Who will this little girl recommend? Could the trust she said be the beginning of her taking the opportunity to cultivate her henchmen?

However, just when Liu Xing was secretly thinking, he heard Zhao Jinzhu's heart: The hateful Hu Anguo, relying on you as the leader of the Confucian forest in the world, is so difficult for my brother Liu. No matter who will return to the court in the future, this palace will definitely let you get out of the court first......

Hearing the little princess's voice, Liu Xing immediately dispelled his doubts, and asked with a light smile: "I don't know who the princess sponsors?" ”

Zhao Jinzhu didn't hesitate, and directly said a name: "Xu Heng." ”

"Xu Heng." Repeating the name, Liu Xing lowered his head and said to himself: "Wu Zhuangyuan was born, can be literate and martial, and his hand-picked Xiaokai has already been praised by everyone in Confucianism." On origin, merit, prestige, ability. Yes, yes, how did I forget about him? ”

As soon as he stopped muttering to himself, Liu Xing raised his head and looked at Lei Zhen again: "According to the princess's move, Xu Heng was ordered to take over as the squire of the military department immediately." At the same time, let him temporarily lead the military envoy of the former division of the palace and give me the reorganization of the armies in Beijing as soon as possible. ”

The squire of the military department, and the general staff envoy of the former division of the palace, Liu Xing has not yet said that Xu Heng is being removed from the post of envoy of the craftsman and the military department.

When Lei Zhen turned around to give the order, he smiled secretly in his heart: Brother Xu, now you want a cow! The entire capital is in the hands of the army, and the power of the craftsman is still grasping, this capital is afraid that no one can compare with you in military power! (To be continued.) )
