  Chapter 1325 The Faint King's Random Fate Shocks Luzon

"Wei Xuanzhen only joined the army in Puzhou, and the assessments were only middle and low. He is extremely incompetent. Now, just because his daughter is favored in the palace, he has to be made a duke of the state, and he is also bestowed on the world. He even wants to ascend to the sky in one step. How can it make sense for me to be a middle-level post?"

   Prince Shao Zhanshi and Nanyang County Hou Laiheng also sighed, "Your fate."

  Pei Xingjian sat in front of the desk, picked up a pen and began to write a letter of advice, resolutely opposing the emperor's indiscriminate doting on Webster.

  Since the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, a system has been formed long ago, and no one can be a prince unless he has made military achievements. Wei Xuanzhen is only the father of a concubine and not the father of the queen, and he is still alive. How can he directly grant the title of knighthood?

  According to the system, Wei Xuanzhen is only granted the title of Marquis of Dissent, and is not even eligible to add the word "Founding of the Country", let alone a real title or world title.

  As for the position of servant, it is the position of prime minister. Wei Xuanzhen has neither great merit nor special talent. How can he be promoted from joining the army to being a servant?

   How can a famous imperial weapon be such a trifle?

Pei Xingjian also copied Wei Xuanzhen's past evaluation files of the Ministry of Officials and submitted them. Wei Xuanzhen was an official, and the evaluations were very average. He had no political skills, and even had bad morals. Discuss crimes, not promotion or even worship.

   After Wan Yanjian finished writing, Pei Xingjian handed it to Lai Heng to read.

   Those who came to Heng to watch were also overwhelmed.

   Both of them are adopted sons of Qin Qiong. They lived together in the Qin family in the early years and studied in the Chongxian Hall together.

  The dismissal of Laiji and Cui Dunli is obviously the emperor's suppression of the Qin family. Both Pei Xingjian and Lai Heng knew that it might be their turn next.

  The submission of this letter of advice may have just given the emperor a reason to dismiss them, but they still have to submit this letter of advice.

  "The country is like this, unfortunately."

  Lai Heng sighed, "The meaning of going away has already happened."

  He also directly took the pen and paper, and wrote a letter of advice on Pei Xingjian's office desk.

   "If it doesn't work, go to Luzon!"

   Pei Xingjian said.

   Lai Heng thought for a while, "We must disappoint Saburo if we are like this."

   "The emperor is like this, what can he do?" Of course Pei Xingjian also knew that if he left, he would be a deserter, but in the current situation, there is no difference between whether to leave or not, and the emperor would kick them out if he didn't want to.

  Admonition book Chen Shang.

   Sure enough, the emperor's decree came down quickly.

  Pei Xingjian was demoted to be the governor of Beiting and the governor of Tingzhou, and Lai Heng was demoted to the governor of Bohai and the governor of Bohai Prefecture.

   One is north of the Tianshan Mountains in the extreme west, and the other is east of North Korea in the extreme east.

  To the west of Tingzhou are the tribes of the Western Turks.

  Bohai Prefecture is on the banks of the Huhan River (Mudanjiang) east of Changbai Mountain. It is covered with various tribes of Mohe, and it is covered with snow for half a year.

  After kicking Qin Lang's two righteous brothers out of the court, the emperor issued an internal regulation.

  Special decree to confer Wei Xuanzhen, the father of Concubine Wei Huangchen, as the King of Runan County.

  Wei Xuanzhen's elder brother, Wei Xuanyan, was conferred the title of Inspector of Xuzhou and canonized Duke of Lu. His son Wei Wen was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and his second son Wei Shuang was awarded General Yubayashi.

   Wei Xuanzhen's sons were all young, and they were all awarded the fifth-rank Sanjie.

  Xuanzhen was conferred with his uncles Hongsu, Hongqing, and Hongdu, and his younger brothers Xuanzhao, Xuanming, Xuanxi, etc., as governors, or as generals of Beiya Zhonglang.

   Luzon.

  Qin Lang couldn't help shaking his head when he saw the information that was rushed back from Luoyang.

  The emperor's behavior is indeed full of character.

  This barely concealed method is declaring to the world that he no longer needs the Qin family, and even doesn't want to be polite to the Qin family anymore.

  Now the ministers of the DPRK and China who are closely related to the Qin family have to lean on one side.

   Facing this kind of stupid people, Qin Lang was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't just raise the flag to rebel as Qin Jun said.

  Qin Lang never thought about such a thing.

   Unless the emperor really declares Qin Lang as a traitor and sends troops to Lu Song, it is impossible for Qin Lang to raise troops.

   But now the emperor is indeed acting too much.

  Although Qin Lang could see through the logical intention behind the emperor's behavior at a glance, it was to suppress the powerful Qin family in the court, and even to dismantle the Qin family's political alliance in the court.

  From the standpoint of the emperor, the political alliance with the Qin family as the core bond is indeed a bit strong, especially after Changsun Wuji's party fell and was liquidated.

  The emperor is now taking action against the Qin family, and it makes sense.

But this still inevitably made Qin Lang start to feel a little anxious, because no one knew where the emperor's bottom line was, and no one knew whether the emperor's love for the Qin family would be the same as that of the eldest grandson Wuji or Li Tai, Li Ke, Li Daozong, Xue Wanche's wife, etc. Just like people, do it to the end.

  Wei Xuanzhen entered the court as a servant, and was named king of Runan County in Jin Dynasty.

  Li Yifu added a new title, Zhongshu is in charge of affairs. The emperor broke the tradition that had lasted nearly 30 years since the middle period of Zhenguan period. Li Yifu, in the name of Zhongshuling presiding over government affairs, held pens for the prime minister of the Zhengshitang, and in fact became the prime minister of the Zhengshitang.

   This is no longer the pluralistic system of the political affairs hall in the past, but the system of the Zhongshu Ling leading the political affairs hall. In the past, everyone took turns to govern affairs, preside over the prime minister's discussion and decision-making, summarize their records, and more directly follow the purpose.

   Now, Zhongshu has ordered Li Yifu to be in charge of the political affairs pen.

This change is huge. In the past, in the Zhengshitang, whether it was Zhongshu Ling, Shizhong, Left and Right Pushe, or even Shilang, Shangshu, etc., as long as they entered the hall as ministers, they had the same status when discussing affairs in the hall. Who is high and who is low, who is the master and who is the follower.

  Only the person who is in charge of the affairs in turn is the host, but everyone takes turns.

  But now that the prime minister has come out, other people have lost their qualifications to be in power. Naturally, the right to speak in the political affairs hall is no longer what it used to be, and they actually become officials of Zhongshu Ling.

  The emperor broke the stable system formed in the past 30 years, obviously because Li Yifu was more obedient and understood the emperor's mind better, so the emperor simply let him hold the pen.

  After all, there are currently six prime ministers in the Zhengshitang, including **** like Dou Dexuan and mediocre people like Wei Xuanzhen. If they are allowed to preside in turn, there will definitely be troubles. It is better to let Li Yifu write and preside over it.

  Li Yifu also has the seal of the Zhongshu sect as a matter of course, and the resolution of the Zhengshitang is not legally valid if this seal is not affixed.

   "Saburo!"

   There was a sound of footsteps, Zhang Chao, Lao Huang, Wei Chang, Qin Yong and many other old people came over. Looking at their expressions, it was obvious that they had already known the recent drastic changes in the court.

  In this rapidly changing situation, what should Luzon do?

   Wei Chang, who is over ninety years old, still has a ruddy complexion. This old birthday star has always been Qin Lang's intelligence adviser, "I heard that the emperor is planning to abolish Su Liwei."

  Qin Lang nodded.

   Li Yin's series of actions are clearly directional. Such a favor to Webster was originally aimed at the Qin family. Compared with the strength of the Qin family, Webster's strength is much weaker.

  Although Webster is a well-known Jingzhao family with profound background, known as the Nine Great Dukes, there have been many talents, from the Western Wei Dynasty to the Northern Zhou Dynasty to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and even married to the royal family for generations. They are famous relatives and have produced several famous generals and prime ministers.

But after all, in the later period of Zhenguan, Li Shimin almost completely abolished it, and it no longer had the kind of prosperity in the early and middle period of Zhenguan. The emperor chose Wei Shi to replace the Qin family.

  The marriage between Empress Su and Li Yin for more than 20 years is still coming to an end after all.

   It's just that many people may not have imagined that the imperial concubine Qin has been waiting for many years, but now she is going to be helped by concubine Wei Huangchen.

   "This is too much."

  Qin Yongqi's beard trembled wildly.

He is Qin Qiong's adoptive son who treats him like a parent and child, and his relationship with the brothers and sisters of the Qin family is unquestionable. He treats sister Qin Shu and Qinwan like his own sister. Now that the two sisters are suffering such humiliation in the palace, how can they not angry.

   What's more, now it's not just about the two sisters being humiliated in the palace, it's also related to the life and death of the Qin family, and it's also exactly related to the families that are bound together with the Qin family.

  The people who came to Qin Lang at this time were all Qin Lang's most trusted people.

   Ah Huang, who is in his seventies, also openly called Li Yin a fool.

  Cabinet bachelor Zhang Chao even bluntly said that he cannot sit still.

  Wei Chang lowered his voice, "I still need a hidden stake in the palace. As long as Saburo agrees, I can arrange it. It can make the emperor die suddenly, and it can be guaranteed that no one will notice."

  Qin Lang just shook his head.

"There is nothing in this world that goes unnoticed, let alone in the palace? I know that you, Old Wei, have been in charge of the Zhenfu Division for more than 20 years and have managed a secret network. It's simple, not to mention that in the current situation, the emperor must have taken precautions. Maybe the emperor may have set up a net long ago, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net. "

  Once the matter fails, it can only be the result of fighting in battle.

But this is exactly the situation that Qin Lang never wanted to see. He established Lu Song overseas not to establish himself as a king and to rebel against the imperial court in the future to replace him. He just wanted to give the Qin family a retreat and drive the Central Plains to expand abroad Bring Chinese civilization further afield.

  If it develops to the point where Luzon goes to war with Datang, that is not his intention, and with the strength of Datang now, it is very difficult for Luzon at this stage to fight.

Although Lu Song is overseas, don't forget that Datang is not the Tang Dynasty in history. Datang has developed maritime trade for many years and has been familiar with the sea for a long time. Not to mention, the four major fleets of the Datang Navy also have nearly thirty With a history of more than 100 years, its strength is the absolute supremacy of the sea.

  The navy of the Qin family in Lusong is mainly armed with reserve merchant ships, and the real standing water force is very ordinary.

  Once there is a war, the strength of the imperial court is not something that Luzon can resist. The most important point is that once the two sides of the strait become hostile, the imperial court even needs to blockade Luzon, then Luzon, which has lost the mainland, is really just a barbaric island in the sea.

   "Things haven't come to a dead end yet." Qin Lang frowned.

   "Sanlang, I can't retreat anymore. If you retreat again, there is already an abyss behind you. If you retreat again, you will be crushed to pieces." Zhang Chao persuaded.

  Qin Lang is very calm, not impatient.

  It is more necessary to calm down when encountering major events.
