"That's it, Suning's storage zài, always makes Ben Chang feel extremely annoyed, but I don't know how to get rid of Suning, as long as Suning saves zài for a day, we can't control the real government for a day, although Your Majesty trusts us and others, but I also trust Suning, Suning and those generals in the army as backers, it really makes me feel that I can't be underestimated, you all say, what should I do?" In the dimly lit small room, Wei Wuji said with a gloomy face.

In addition to Wei Wuji, there were quite a few people in the dimly lit small room, about a dozen, each dressed in an official mansion, all officials, all of whom "stood out" in the stormy action of Li Erma's attack on the courtiers, and those who successfully ascended the throne all chose to stand on the side of Li Erma's Xià in that storm, and together they fought against those important ministers who had always held great power, believing that if they did not bring down these important ministers, they would not be able to ascend to the throne.

In the previous action, they cooperated seamlessly with Li Erma, and successively overthrew Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Yu Shinan, Wang Yuan, these important ministers of the dynasty, and now these important ministers have been degraded, exiled, imprisoned, and resigned, leaving a lone Fang Xuanling and a Suning to stick to the court, it is obvious that Suning is Fang Xuanling's last ally and barrier.

Suning's power is too strong, so strong that they have almost no way to compete with it, military background, strong financial resources, bigwigs in the vertical and horizontal departments, royal status, so many powerful people are his friends, all of them are his arms, which made Wei Wuji suddenly find that even though they have the support of the emperor and almost control the court, they can't confront Suning.

Suning's most solid barrier, the last safe haven for his faction of officials, the vertical and horizontal department, the department that Wei Wou-Ki couldn't meddle in anyway, whenever he came up with such an idea. Li Ermajesty is to talk about him left and right, and when he is in Li Erma's slanderous words about Suning, such as Suning bullying people, forming a party in the DPRK and the like, but Li Ermajesty just said a faint "oh", and there is nothing else to say.

This made Wei Wou-Ki feel quite bad. It seems that Suning is the only important minister who Li Er Majesty does not want to touch, he can bring down the two prime ministers, but he can't bring down Suning, which is somewhat ironic for him, so he can't stand Suning's storage at all, the military department, the criminal department, and the civil department. The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Works, no matter which department, have all been placed by him, and he is the eyes and tongue of Li Ermaxi in these departments!

But there is no one in the vertical and horizontal department, and the officials of other departments are all mournful after their respective bosses lose power. For them also gradually admit defeat and obey. A few days ago, a loose cavalry attendant of the vertical and horizontal department beat one of his subordinates in front of him, but Li Er's majesty actually didn't say anything. Doesn't seem to care.

It seems that any laws and regulations are not very useful for the vertical and horizontal departments, and an old man of the Ministry of Civil Affairs severely reprimanded the people of Wei Wuji's faction, and as a result, he was deposed, but only the vertical and horizontal departments were not affected, and it seemed that any storm would dissipate into invisibility when it reached the gate of the yamen of the vertical and horizontal departments. Li Erma's Xià didn't plan to move the vertical and horizontal parts at all.

This is also the point that makes Wei Wuji feel the most powerless, his power and status are only due to the promotion of Li Erma, if Li Ermaxi does not support it, he can't do anything, and he doesn't dare to do anything, but only Suning, who went against him three times and twice, reprimanded a palace maid himself, was seen by Suning, and mercilessly said that this palace maid was favored by him, and he wanted to take it back to Su Mansion, and Li Erma Xià rewarded this palace maid to Suning the next day.

He sneered at a political enemy, but Suning came up with righteous rebuttals, protected the official of the Ministry of Rites, and there was nothing he could do about him, it seemed that when Suning was not there, he was the master, but if Suning was there, Li Erma would not face him at all, and Suning was in charge of everything, whether it was in the court or under the court.

Wei Wou-Ki felt that his dignity had been challenged.

"Chang Waiter, Xia Guan thinks that it is indeed not easy to deal with Suning, the meaning of His Majesty is already very clear, other people can, but Suning can't move, even Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui can be crushed by us, that is, Suning can't be crushed, it seems that His Majesty is also facing Suning, it is estimated that this has something to do with his royal identity!" Zhang Taiyun, the new left waiter of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, said.

"This is not necessarily, the prince and the king of Wu, the king of Wei, and the king of Jin were all reprimanded by His Majesty, they are the sons of His Majesty, and His Majesty will not tolerate it, not to mention that it is just a royal family who is not surnamed Li, if it is just the status of the royal family that makes His Majesty so kind to him, I am afraid it is unlikely!" Qi Boyang, the new right attendant of the ministry, said.

"I think it has something to do with his military background, we don't have acquaintances in the military, although the people in the military don't interfere in the government, but if it has something to do with them, it may be difficult to deal with, isn't that how Suning is? She is a powerful character who has led soldiers to fight, and I guess that's it. Wang Li, the new member of the Ministry of Labor, said.

Then there was a lot of nonsense, but they just argued about why Suning couldn't be defeated, and didn't think about how to bring down Suning, which made Wei Wuji feel a deep sense of powerlessness, when fighting for power, these guys were all masters, with the emperor as the backing, they dared to do anything, but once they encountered hard bones, they all had no fucking teeth, put away their claws, and didn't dare to move anything, they were all a group of unreliable guys, and they didn't use it at all!

Wei Wuji was extremely annoyed: "At the critical moment, all of you are waste, and you are useless!" A Suning will make you die down? There were so many ideas when I dealt with Fang Xuanling at the beginning, but now there are no ones?! After discussing it for so long, nothing came out! What do you want? ”

The angry Wei Wou-Ki made these guys bow their heads one by one and couldn't speak, indeed, Wei Wou-Ki is their leader, the most senior official whose status is only promoted under the prime minister, it is impossible to say that he has no ability, although these guys are all flatterers, but they are also a little capable, otherwise they would definitely not be able to do such an official position.

But it is clear that they are limited in what they can do.

"Chang waiting, I think below. This is not necessarily impossible. Xu Jingzong, the new scholar who had been sitting next to him and did not speak, spoke.

Wei Wuji's eyes lit up, he looked at Xu Jingzong, who was much older than him, and asked in a more polite tone, "Xu Sheren, do you have any opinions?" What to do to deal with Suning? ”

The reason why Wei Wuji was so polite to Xu Jingzong. Not only because Xu Jingzong is old and has deep qualifications, but also because of his current official position, Zhongshu Sheren, which is a close confidant of Li Erma, because of his deep qualifications and good writing, he got the official position of this Zhongshu Sheren, and in this group of people, he has also been an official for the longest time. It's just that because he is a former Sui official and has submitted to the Tang Dynasty, he has not been allowed to reuse.

This time, Li Erma's seizure of power could not use the original team, so Xu Jingzong, who had been suppressed, was activated, and there was a very important selection condition for the Zhongshu people, that is, the writing was good, in today's Tang Dynasty, the best writing must be Suning Su Houye. At the beginning, the name of the Su character shocked the whole country, and hunted the heroic. His Majesty was impressed, and Xu Jingzong spent ten years studying Su Ti characters, and actually studied the appearance of seven or eight points, Suning was in a high position, so it was naturally impossible to be a Chinese scholar, and now Xu Jingzong seized the opportunity. The sweet words slapped Li Erma's sycophants very loudly.

So when it comes to power and status, in this group of people, Xu Jingzong is a well-deserved second, and after so many years of ups and downs, Xu Jingzong is not awesome. The wisdom is deep, Wei Wuji has noticed this a long time ago, when he was as depressed as he was, he once had a relationship with Xu Jingzong.

Xu Jingzong touched his beard and showed a yin smile: "Suning himself, we can't be hard-shaked, although he is young, only twenty-nine years old, but he entered the government at the age of fourteen, and has been an official in the court for fifteen years, with a deep foundation, even many old ministers who are much older than him are not as good as him, and the relationship between him and His Majesty has always been very harmonious, His Majesty Xià is very fond of him, not to mention the relationship with the prince, the only prince to read, so far it is Suning."

Not to mention the relationship between the army, the original Liaodong Army was under his command, and there were not a few people who became officers and honors because of him, and they all wanted to repay him, as for the current Anxi Army, Li Zhen, Li Boyao, Cheng Chumo, Wei Chi Baolin, these people and those military academy students all have a deep relationship with him.

In the entire staff headquarters, nine out of ten senior officials have dealings with him, Li Shiji's son is Li Zhen, and he has always had a good relationship with Suning, who do you think Li Shiji will help? Suning has a deeper relationship with those meritorious veterans, Cheng Zhijie, Wei Chigong, Li Jing, Niu Xiu, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, it is estimated that even His Majesty will not be able to uproot Suning, let alone me wait. ”

Wei Wuji showed a depressed expression: "Elder Xu, don't be ambitious and destroy our own prestige!" ”

Xu Jingzong smiled and said: "Wei Changzhi is not strange, the old man just had a feeling, and he never noticed that Suning is such a deep-rooted behemoth, with such a deep strength, we were caught off guard, and His Majesty's attitude is also unclear, besides, after a hundred years, Nine times out of ten it will definitely be the crown prince's accession to the throne."

The relationship between Suning and the crown prince is so deep, if we make a fuss against Suning, not to mention whether we can succeed, if we succeed, we will incur the disgust of the crown prince, and thus offend the crown prince, isn't it also a very bad thing for us? Once the crown prince ascends the throne as emperor, he will definitely liquidate us because of this, and at that time, wouldn't it be a catastrophe for us? So if you still want to deal with Suning, isn't there only one way to go without letting the crown prince ascend the throne? ”

Wei Wuji was stunned for a moment, the officials below, you look at me, I look at you, they all showed frightened expressions, Wei Wuji hurriedly waved his hand: "No, Xu Lao, this is a heart-wrenching word!" We should be loyal to His Majesty, act according to His Majesty's will, and absolutely not disobey His Majesty's will. ”

Xu Jingzong looked at Wei Wuji, and then smiled indifferently: "It's just talking, it's just talking, it's not true, hahahaha!" ”

Wei Wuji was angry for a while: "Elder Xu, this is not a matter of whether to say or not, this is a very strict problem, Suning is against us everywhere, it's not that we want to go against him, I have never taken the initiative to provoke Suning, it is Suning who comes to provoke us and hinder us, I don't want to offend the crown prince and the army, but if this is not the case, how should we deal with ourselves?" Listen to Suning and wait for me to wait for good things? ”

Xu Jingzong kept silent, just stroked his beard, and when Wei Wuji was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, a young official stood up, with a mocking smile on his face, and smiled at Xu Jingzong: "Xu Lao's words, I'm afraid it's not just talking, right?" (To be continued......)
