The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 375 Li Er Still Didn't Guess It
Chapter 375 Li Er Still Didn't Guess It
When thinking of this, Li Er's complexion changed again and again, and at the same time, a terrible thought rose in his mind: "Could it be that Bai Jingyi really discussed with the ministers and recommended a certain minister for the position!"

"In this way, Bai Jingyi will control all civil and military officials in the court!? At that time, I am afraid that Bai Jingyi's words will be more effective than my imperial decree!"

For a while, Li Er actually wanted to ignore the opposition of everyone and directly let Changsun Wuji be the prime minister.

After all, Changsun Wuji is not only his confidant from childhood to adulthood, but also loyal to him, and Changsun Wuji is a person with real talents and practical skills.

Even if Changsun Wuji is really allowed to take the position of prime minister, I am afraid that the officials present will not have any objections at all...

Listening to Li Er's question, all the civil and military officials present knelt and sat on the spot like sculptures. Even Cheng Yaojin, who talked the most on weekdays, seemed to be asleep.

Li Er said helplessly: "Could it be that in the Tang Dynasty where there are so many talents, I can't even choose a person with lofty ideals?"

While speaking, Li Er looked at Bai Jingyi. After all, he knew in his heart that the reason for his hesitation was all because of Bai Jingyi.

And Bai Jingyi stood there with a half-smile, as if nothing happened, and didn't even have the intention to speak.

And this situation is exactly what Changsun Wuji wanted to see. He hurriedly stood up, bowed to Li Er and said, "I report to you, Your Majesty! I believe that the matter of the prime minister is related to the future of our Tang Dynasty, and it should be decided as soon as possible." yes!"

Changsun Wuji's words seemed to give a signal to the ministers behind him...

Immediately, a minister stood up, bowed to Li Er and said, "I report to you, Your Majesty! I believe that Zhao Guogong not only has both ability and political integrity, but also has both civil and military skills, and he has made great contributions to our Tang Dynasty! He should be the prime minister!" position!"

"Report to Your Majesty! Zhao Guogong is a hero who founded the country, and his achievements during his reign were even more outstanding. He should be on the position of prime minister!"

"Report to Your Majesty! Duke Zhao came to Liangzhou in person, and when wars broke out, he put his life and death aside and acted as a negotiating envoy. Such a talented man with both civil and military skills deserves to be the prime minister!"

"Report to Your Majesty! Duke Zhao has worked tirelessly for our Great Tang, and he has worked hard without complaint..."

The first few people praised Changsun Wuji's character, and the latter few people praised Changsun Wuji's achievements.Everything seemed to have been discussed long ago.

In the end, Changsun Wuji stood up and waved his hands very modestly and said: "It is my honor to be able to contribute a small amount to my Great Tang!"

"However, the position of prime minister is of great importance, and I hope that all colleagues will recommend it together!"

What Changsun Wuji said was obvious, he wanted more people to recommend him, and at the same time reminded the ministers present that now is definitely the best time to recommend him.

When he ascends to the position of prime minister in the future, he will definitely not forget the people who recommended him...

After listening to Changsun Wuji's words, Bai Jingyi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, thinking in his heart: "If you want the position of prime minister, just say so, why are you so hypocritical?"

Immediately, Bai Jingyi walked forward slowly, and his footsteps also attracted the attention of everyone present.When Changsun Wuji saw Bai Jingyi walking around, he felt even more nervous.

I saw Bai Jingyi walked to the center of the Taiji Hall, bowed to Li Er and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, since Zhao Guogong feels that he is not capable enough, then I think that Zhao Guogong is really not suitable for the position of prime minister!"

"Sigh~~"

All the civil and military officials present could not help but gasp.

What Bai Jingyi said was too straightforward, he directly denied Changsun Wuji on the spot, and even slapped those who praised Changsun Wuji on the spot...

And even if those ministers were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to speak out at all.After all, they are not Wei Zheng, they did not take the wrong medicine today...

Changsun Wuji's face turned pale from anger and his eyes widened, staring at Bai Jingyi viciously.

However, Bai Jingyi smiled contemptuously and said: "Heh! These words were all said by Mr. Zhao himself. Do you want to argue in front of civil and military officials and the Holy Majesty?"

"you…………"

Changsun Wuji was so angry that he was speechless, anyone could tell that he was just being humble.As a result, Bai Jingyi's taste changed completely.

In desperation, Changsun Wuji could only snort coldly and said: "Hmph! Our Tang Dynasty is full of talents, and there are countless people who have made great contributions! Everyone should have a chance!"

Changsun Wuji almost gritted his teeth when he said the words "everything has a chance".

It never occurred to him that Bai Jingyi would not stand up sooner or later, but would stand up against him after he finished speaking.This made him very passive.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Li Er waved his hands and said, "That's right! I thought that the Tang Dynasty has a lot of talents, but the position of prime minister should be the most suitable person!"

"Besides, the prime minister should not only share my worries and handle state affairs, but also be able to unite all the officials to present a harmonious and stable court scene!"

"Only if you love each other, can you work hard for my Tang Dynasty together!"

"I hope that all the love ministers can recommend more, express their own ideas, and choose the most suitable prime minister for my Tang Dynasty!"

After hearing this, Changsun Wuji could only bear with it for the time being. After all, it was still a long time and there were still many uncertain candidates.

However, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said: "Heh! My Tang Dynasty is indeed full of talents, but there are not many people who have both ability and political integrity!"

While speaking, Bai Jingyi deliberately glanced at Changsun Wuji, which made him tremble all over with anger.

Changsun Wuji was even thinking in his heart: "What!? Could it be that you, a yellow-mouthed child, still find it embarrassing to reuse this old man?"

Bai Jingyi withdrew his gaze, then changed the subject and said, "Being a prime minister does not require both civil and military skills. What's more, even if my Tang Dynasty really encountered a war, it would not be my turn to fight on the battlefield!"

Hearing Bai Jingyi's arrogant and domineering words, the people present had no intention of refuting.After all, Bai Jingyi's strength is obvious to all...

Especially those who were swept by Bai Jingyi's gaze, when they felt Bai Jingyi's gaze, they all subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to look at him at all...

Then Bai Jingyi turned around, bowed to Li Er and cupped his hands and said, "My Majesty, I believe that the prime minister should be a civil servant!"

After listening to Bai Jingyi's words, Li Er began to guess the candidate again, and one name after another flashed in his mind.

In the end, Li Er was extremely irritable, because he couldn't guess who it was, so Li Er simply asked directly: "So Bai Aiqing thinks, who should be the prime minister!?"
