The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 319
Chapter 319
The ministers of the aristocratic family looked at Wang Gui's back in silence, and all kinds of thoughts were active in their hearts.

Wang Chen thought in his heart: "It must be the king of Beiliang who remembers the kindness bestowed by the Wang family of Taiyuan. So this time he wants to support me, the Wang family of Taiyuan!"

"And Wang Gui is not only the direct bloodline of the Taiyuan Wang family, but above the court, he is also an official fourth-rank servant, and also the wife of Wei Wang Li Tai!"

"Under such status, if the King of Beiliang supports him, he will definitely be able to easily win the position of prime minister!"

"At that time, my Taiyuan Wang family will definitely be able to sit firmly at the head of the family."

And the rest of the ministers of the aristocratic family saw that the Taiyuan Wang family was so profitable.

Then their hearts are naturally unbalanced.

If it is said that these people obtain the same benefits or benefits with little difference, the five surnames and seven Wangs must be in the same breath.

But when there is a huge gap in the benefits obtained, especially when joint contributions are made, only one family is rewarded.

Internal contradictions immediately emerged.

The ministers of these aristocratic families were wondering, what kind of benefits did the Taiyuan Wang clan promise to the Beiliang King?
Since he can get such support from the King of Beiliang.

At the same time, they thought that they and others were in high positions in the court.

If he can get the support of the King of Beiliang, can he also ascend to the position of prime minister?

Although they are very unbalanced in their hearts, they will not say it at all.

After all, who can sit in this position, which minister's city is not deep?
However, Wang Gui saw the trickiness at a glance. After all these years of working together, he really knew his colleagues too well.

Therefore, Wang Gui bowed to Bai Jingyi, clasped his hands and asked, "May I ask why the King of Beiliang is so sure that a subordinate official can ascend to the position of prime minister!?"

Listening to Wang Gui's question, the ministers of the other aristocratic families also cheered up.

They also want to know where they are doing so poorly.

However, Bai Jingyi said indifferently: "There is no reason at all! This king thinks that you can ascend to the position of prime minister!"

"Sigh~~"

The ministers of these aristocratic families present couldn't help but gasped.

In his heart, he felt that Bai Jingyi was really too rampant.

How important this prime minister position is to Datang, how could it be such a trifling matter! ?

Even if Bai Jingyi holds a high position and authority in the court, it is only the power of one person after all.

If you want to use the aristocratic family to jointly support Wang Gui's position, then there must be several other aristocratic families to discuss together.

It is impossible to obey Bai Jingyi's words.

Wang Gui smiled wryly and said, "How can your subordinate, He De, be so supported by the King of Beiliang!?"

"Even if one of the few people like me is to be elected to the position of prime minister, it must be decided by several aristocratic families!"

"I hope the King of Beiliang can forgive me for this matter!"

Bai Jingyi said indifferently: "It's okay, anyway, except for the prime minister, it's all yours in the end!"

"Firstly, you are the wife of Wei Wang Li Tai, and secondly, you are Li Jiancheng's man! Thirdly, you have my support behind you!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Gui's heartbeat accelerated rapidly.

Especially the one about Li Jiancheng made him go limp from fright.

After all, no matter how tolerant and magnanimous the Holy Majesty is, it is absolutely impossible for an old minister of rebellion to ascend to a high position.

And when the rest of the masters of the family heard the King of Beiliang admit that he was supporting Wang Gui behind his back.

The faces of each of them suddenly became very ugly.

After all they are the same.A lot of money was spent to support the King of Beiliang, and as a result, the King of Beiliang supported the Wang family of Taiyuan alone.

Bai Jingyi looked at them and said, "Wang Shilang is the wife of Wei Wang Li Tai!"

"For Li Tai's sake, Wang Shilang will definitely be noticed by the Holy Majesty! And he will be reused!"

"It is also because Wang Shilang is Li Jiancheng's old department, so the Holy Majesty will definitely choose you first!"

The ministers of these aristocratic families were a little dazed when they heard it. After all, these reasons were inconsistent and had no connection at all.

However, Bai Jingyi said directly: "After three days, this king will appear in the court, and I will definitely help you at that time!"

"Uh~~ this..."

Listening to Bai Jingyi's unquestionable tone.

The ministers of the aristocratic families present were all speechless, they didn't know how to answer Bai Jingyi's words.

But Bai Jingyi was afraid that they would have internal conflicts.So he said slowly: "Now Wang Shilang is the wife of Wei Wang Li Tai!"

"I have the best chance to ascend to the position of prime minister, so this king decided to help!"

"If you have the opportunity to obtain other official positions in the future and need someone to recommend you, this king will definitely accept it!"

After hearing this, everyone present understood.The King of Beiliang just cut off their thoughts of going back to discuss.

Moreover, what he said today was not a discussion at all, but a direct notification to them that he wanted to support Wang Gui.

The ministers of the aristocratic family were silent for a long time, keeping their expressions on the surface, but they were actually thinking about countermeasures in their hearts.

Immediately, they cupped their hands to Bai Jingyi and said: "If Wang Shilang can ascend to the position of prime minister, the position of our aristocratic family will be more stable!"

"When the time comes, Wen will have Wang Shilang, and Wu will have the King of Beiliang. I don't know how lofty my ambitions will be realized in the future!"

"That's right! In this way, those former court officials must have nowhere to go, either surrender or be kicked out of the court!"

Although the rest of the aristocratic families did not get the corresponding benefits, they were able to make the Wang family of Taiyuan ascend to the position of prime minister.

It is also enough to prove that Bai Jingyi stated that he is willing to help the ministers of the aristocratic family.

It's just that this time, the King of Beiliang thinks that Wang Shilang has a chance to be the prime minister.

After all, the King of Beiliang is still willing to help the aristocratic family.

So the ministers of these aristocratic families relaxed a lot when they spoke, and even vaguely regarded Bai Jingyi as one of their own.

Little did they know that if they were like this, they must have lured wolves into the house.

Bai Jingyi listened to the extremely arrogant words of the few of them, and thought with a sneer in his heart: "Oh! You really got the bait!"

"When talking in front of me, I also relaxed a lot. It seems that the day of closing the net should not be far away!"

The smiles on the faces of several family ministers gradually increased, and they became more and more relaxed when they spoke.

"Now with the support of the King of Beiliang, Wang Shilang will definitely be able to ascend to the position of prime minister!"

"That's right! When Changsun Wuji returns, it may be too late!"

"I heard that Changsun Wuji has always wanted to sit at the head of the hundred officials, and now that Pei Ji is stepping down, the Holy Majesty personally ordered Changsun Wuji to send Pei Ji away from Chang'an!"

"This move is enough to explain everything! It's a pity, after all, it's still one step away! Hahaha!"

"I will definitely report this good news to the Patriarch when I go back! At the same time, I must contact the other officials during this period of time!"

"At that time, at the court, we will jointly recommend Wang Shilang to the position of prime minister!"

"But this time I still have to thank the King of Beiliang for his great help!"

The ministers of several aristocratic families clasped their hands together and said to Bai Jingyi.Especially Wang Gui's gaze was full of gratitude.

And Bai Jingyi nodded lightly and said: "..."
