Chapter 587 Wrist!
City of King Yu.
royal palace.
The two ministers walked out of the palace in despair, but they stopped at the same time and smiled at each other. The smiles were particularly bitter, and the expressions on their faces were also mixed.
How can you laugh when you are already a highly respected minister but are suddenly fired by your boss?
But his son became the deputy commander of Tian Yu's army. This is the heritage of the Dayu Dynasty!
"Lao Xie, would you like to sit in a pub?"
"Go to my house. Talking about things outside is a bit inconvenient after all."
"good!"
The two got on their sedans and arrived at Xie's Mansion. The mansion was surprisingly quiet, as if it was the calm before the storm. They called the servant to prepare drinks and the two sat across from each other.
"Brother Ji, have you ever understood?"
"Has little knowledge."
Ji Sui also had a deep look on his face and said calmly: "On the way back, I kept thinking about whose fault it was, and why the boys from our two families joined Tianyu's army without any warning, and even became Tianyu's army. The deputy commander of Yu’s army.”
"Now, I understand a little bit. Brother Xie, you and I have been studying this treacherous court for most of our lives, but we never thought that one day we would become pawns."
"Hahaha!"
Xie Xingxian also smiled self-deprecatingly, with a look of joy on his face: "It's a blessing to be able to escape unscathed. How can we avoid the trap that was set up by the person himself?"
"Besides, those two little bastards may not realize the importance of the matter at this time."
"Tian Yu's army...can they intervene?"
Ji Sui also had a solemn look on his face. He looked at Xie Xingxian. After being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked: "Brother Xie, what do you think King Qin wants?"
"Now in the court, you and I have been labeled as His Highness King Yong. But now, King Qin intervenes, and His Majesty takes advantage of the situation and takes you and me down. Who is this paving the way for?"
"Or in other words, who are you setting up for?"
"The enemy is facing a formidable enemy. Tian Yu's army changed its commander before the battle, and His Majesty ignored the stability of the court. Is it because he has broken the pot, or is he... full of confidence?"
Seeing Ji Sui's frown, a wry smile appeared on Xie Xingxian's face: "Brother Ji, the first priority is to meet those two boys first. You and I have suffered a terrible disaster today!"
"The Tianyu Army has never been restricted by the imperial court. Now, our two families have been included in the system of the Tianyu Army. It is reasonable for His Majesty to be angry. However, now that Mobei is besieged by 150,000 cavalry, the Tianyu Army It is the support of the imperial court. Even if His Majesty is dissatisfied with Wu Wu and Yan'er, he should not take action against you and me until the foreign troubles are resolved. "
"What is the reason that made His Majesty ignore the attitude of the Tianyu Army and take off the official hats of you and me with such thunderous momentum?"
"To be honest, I really can't see through it!"
Ji Sui smiled and said calmly: "Since you can't see clearly, you might as well jump out of the situation first. The authorities are confused, but the bystanders know clearly."
"Well, I'm going to meet that little brat right now."
"Thank you brother, I'm going back too."
…
Zhuge Mansion.
Since Zhuge Liang became the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he was also rewarded by Emperor Yu with a mansion. Although the mansion was not big, it was located in a prime location in the capital.
It's just that Zhuge Liang has always been a low-key person, and there are few official contacts in the house on weekdays.
"Sir, Mr. Shang is waiting outside the mansion!"
"oh?"
Zhuge Liang had a look of surprise on his face, looked at the book boy and said, "Please go to the study room later, I'll be there right away."
"yes!"
Not long after, Zhuge Liang and Shang Yang met in the study. The aroma of tea dissipated, and smoke curled up from the incense burner. Against the background of the full-frame books on the bookshelves, it added a bit of elegance.
"Shangjun, please!"
"please!"
The two drank tea together, and then looked at each other. Shang Yang said softly: "Kong Ming, news came from the palace just now. Ji Sui, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and Xie Xingxian, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, reported illness and retired. Have you received the news?"
Zhuge Liang's eyes narrowed and his brows gradually furrowed: "Ji Shangshu and Xie Shangshu have always been physically strong. Now that the Mobei Iron Cavalry is approaching, how can they retire at this time?"
"Is there another hidden secret in this?"
Hearing Zhuge Liang's question, Shang Yang nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Xie Yan, son of Xie Xingxian, and Ji Wuyou, son of Ji Sui, are appointed as deputy commander-in-chief of Tianyu Army."
"Tian Yu's Army!"
Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed with a deep gleam, and he said solemnly: "The King of Qin's plan, Your Majesty followed the current and won one Minister of the Ministry of War and one Minister of the Ministry of Industry."
"And these two ministers are close to the lord, so they can be regarded as his people."
"Haha, it seems that our Majesty has an idea!"
"With my lord's current power, whether in the government or in the opposition, he is deeply intertwined. Especially after His Majesty's Huainan delegation, he has a deep taboo in his heart."
"No matter how much he loves his lord, this world is his after all. Your Majesty is in his prime, how can he allow his son to threaten his status?"
"Not even for the heir he has determined in his heart!"
Zhuge Liang raised his eyes and looked at Shang Yang: "So, where is your Majesty's confidence?"
As soon as these words came out, both of them fell silent. Dayu's pool was too deep, so deep that even one of Tianyu's troops could not splash any water. In this case, the lord is about to enter the capital. Is it a blessing or a curse?
And His Highness King Qin, who has been hiding in the world, what role does he play in this?
It seems that the center of everything has quietly shifted within two days after the return of the seemingly peaceful and moderate Emperor Yu. The once arrogant Prince Qi Lin also changed his mind in just two days. , disappearing everyone.
It turned out that they all underestimated the Emperor.
"Who will take over these two ministerial posts?"
"I don't know!"
Shang Yang shook his head, and his eyes were in a daze: "The Minister of the Ministry of War is a very important position. Your Majesty will probably not hand it over to someone from the princes easily. If my expectations are correct, the successor of the Minister of the Ministry of War will be... He must be a direct descendant of His Majesty."
"As for the Minister of Industry..." Shang Yang paused and said calmly: "The third prince has completely missed that position. I just don't know which prince your Majesty will support in the next step."
"You and I never expected that the inheritance war would unfold in such a situation."
"Your Majesty is in control of the chess, and we will just follow the current. My lord's current foundation is not in the temple. The rivers and lakes are far away, and it is not possible for your Majesty to cover the sky with one hand."
After a secret discussion, the sandalwood seemed to have burned out in the incense burner in the study, and the last wisp of tobacco melted into the air silently. Everything began to become rippled and strange, until the cry of death came from the distance. With a sound and a roar, Mobei's offensive finally began.
