Chapter 482 Cheng Yu resigns
Chapter 483: Cheng Yu resigns
In the 23rd year of Qianyuan, on October [-]th, the sky in Wancheng was gloomy, the sky was drizzling, and the whole city looked extremely sad. White banners were hung on the gate of Su Mansion. Today is the day of Su Hong's funeral. On this day, Deng Xiaoping An imperial edict was issued to stop the court, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty went to see the meritorious minister of Deng Guo for the last time.

After noon, the crowd surrounded Su Hong's coffin and slowly walked out of the Su Mansion to the Mausoleum of King Deng outside the city. Su Yun, as the eldest son of Su, walked at the front with Su Hong's coffin in his hand. It was Deng Zun, the fourth prince of the Deng Kingdom who was wearing a filial piety on behalf of his elder brother. Behind the two of them were also a group of Su family children, followed by a group of courtiers, and there were also Habayashi guards leading the way. On the streets of Wancheng, The people of Wancheng spontaneously took to the street to see him off, and everyone's faces showed grief.

On the palace city of Wancheng Palace, Deng Sheng and Deng Hao are standing on the top of the city. Deng Sheng and Deng Hao are the kings, and Su Hong is the minister. The funeral procession can be regarded as personally seeing off Su Hong.

Looking into the distance, Deng Sheng murmured: "Su Qing, have a good journey. It's a great fortune for Da Deng to have you. Don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations. This world must belong to my Da Deng!"

The father and son watched the funeral procession leaving the city quietly, and turned back to the palace until the funeral procession disappeared from sight.

Back in Qianyang Palace, Deng Sheng discovered that Cheng Yu had been waiting for him for a long time. Cheng Yu was nearly [-] years old, and he was the oldest minister in the court today. He just went to the mourning hall to burn a stick of incense for Su Hong's funeral today. I didn't see him off in person, after all, at such an old age.

"Your Majesty, the old minister came here today to ask for his resignation!" The monarch and his ministers looked at each other, and finally Cheng Yu spoke. He came today to resign.

This surprised Deng Sheng, and quickly asked, "What does Cheng Qing mean? Is there something wrong with Cheng Qing's body?" What's wrong with Yu's body? After all, they are almost seventy.

Cheng Yu shook his head after hearing this, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, no, although the old minister's health is not as good as before, he is still in good health!"

"Then why do you want to resign? Could it be that the widow did something wrong that made Cheng Qing resign? If it is true, Cheng Qing can bluntly say that there is no need for you and me to be so alien!" Since It wasn't because of his health, Deng Sheng wondered if there was something wrong with him that caused Cheng Yu to resign.

But Cheng Yu shook his head again, and said: "Your Majesty's brilliance is obvious to all in the civil and military affairs of the court. There is nothing wrong with it. On the contrary, your Majesty has already done a good job. The reason why I want to resign is really because I Old and frail, I have no ability to help the king anymore!"

Deng Sheng looked at Cheng Yu calmly with both eyes, and did not speak. At this time, Cheng Yu continued: "Your Majesty should know that, in fact, the old minister should have retired ten years ago, but at that time my Great Deng was not as powerful as he is now, and The old minister himself was not convinced by his old age, so he stayed in this position for ten more years, and now I, Da Deng, is the best in the world. As long as we fight steadily, the world can be said to be at your fingertips, and young talents emerge in endlessly. The old minister should also give young people Make way."

"But neither the widow nor Da Deng can do without Cheng Qing? What's more, Su Qing has just left, and now Cheng Qing is leaving the widow, how can you let the widow accept it?" Although Cheng Yu's words are very reasonable, Deng Sheng also Knowing that Cheng Yu's age is indeed too old, but he still wants to keep him.

But Cheng Yu was very resolute this time, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty is joking, the veteran is not so important. Without the veteran, the Majesty will still be the Majesty, and the Great Deng will still be the Great Deng. There will be no change. Moreover, there are so many insightful people inside and outside the court, it is easy to find someone to replace the old minister, the king may not know that the old minister has become a great-grandfather!"

"Really? Then congratulations to Cheng Qing!" Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Deng Sheng knew that Cheng Yu's grandson Cheng Xu was the father, and hurriedly congratulated Cheng Yu.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this old minister is old. This old minister has been worthy of His Majesty and Deng Deng all his life. The only thing he owes is his family. A few years ago, the old minister was stationed in Wuguan, and he never came back to Wancheng for many years, even when his grandson was born. Not in the mansion, the old official felt very guilty. When he saw Su Shangshu passed away, the old official felt very emotional. The old official was older than Su Shangshu, and he might not be here anytime soon. The old official also wanted to use the remaining Time, spend time with your family, this is the last thing the old minister can do for them, please let the king do it!"

Cheng Yu has already talked about this point, Deng Sheng knew that if he continued to stay, he would become a villain, so he sighed and said: "In this case, the widow will no longer force it, but Cheng Qing will promise the widow thing."

"My lord, please tell me that as long as the veteran can do it, he will never refuse!" Cheng Yu was very happy to see that Deng Sheng finally agreed to his resignation, and said immediately.

"The widow asks Cheng Qing to do something very simple, that is, ask Cheng Qing to take good care of his body. If the widow and Da Deng have any major issues that cannot be resolved in the future, maybe we need to ask Cheng Qing to come out of the mountain. I don't know if Cheng Qing can agree. What about the widow?" Deng Sheng said.

Cheng Yu smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, there won't be any problems with my body for a while, and I haven't seen the king ascend to the top of the world, how can I be willing to leave? Woolen cloth!"

Deng Sheng and Cheng Yu smiled at each other, then sat down together, Deng Sheng asked Cheng Yu: "Since Cheng Qing wants to resign, the widow is not an unreasonable person, but this military aircraft department does not know who Cheng Qing wants to take over? "

Cheng Yu can leave, but who will take over the Military Aircraft Department is a big problem. The Military Aircraft Department is in charge of the military divisions of the world, and its status in the military is almost equal to that of the generals. The first military division general of the Military Aircraft Department is Su Hong, later Deng Sheng saw that Su Hong was not only the minister of the Ministry of War, but also the general of the Military Aircraft Division, and at the same time controlled the largest intelligence organization in the country, Mingjing, with too much power, so he transferred Cheng Yu who was far away in Wuguan to serve as the military aircraft He was a general of the military division, and Cheng Yu managed the military aircraft department in an orderly manner by virtue of his personal prestige and seniority, but once Cheng Yu left, who would be in charge of the military aircraft department became a problem.

"I have two candidates for the king to choose from, namely Yao Guangxiao, the commander of the Spirit Snake Guard, and Zhu Sheng, the commander of the Jinwu Guard!" Deng Sheng asked himself to recommend, and Cheng Yu was not polite, and directly recommended Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Sheng.

"What about Liu Bowen and Xun You?" Liu Bowen and Xun You, as well as Zhu Sheng and Yao Guangxiao, both served in the same period, and their qualifications were not far apart. Deng Sheng felt strange when he saw that Cheng Yu only recommended Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Sheng. , Liu Bowen and Xun You are also suitable for this position.

Cheng Yu explained: "Liu Bowen has outstanding abilities, and there are very few people in the entire Great Deng who can surpass him, but he is too lonely and not good at uniting his colleagues. Any guard division is fine, but if he wants to take on such an important task, he still has to do it. There is a lot lacking, and although Xun You is also very good, it is a pity that he was born in the Xun family in Yingchuan. The veteran also knows that the development of Deng Deng cannot do without the support of the nobles of the family, but what the veteran wants to say is that the king can rely on the government. They, but the army, it is better not to let them get involved, so as to avoid endless troubles!"

"Cheng Qing is far-sighted and far-sighted, and I am admired by everyone. To be honest, Su Qing recommended Yao Guangxiao to succeed him as the head of the mirror when Su Qing died. In this way, only Zhu Sheng can take over Cheng Qing's team. I don't know if Cheng Qing thinks Zhu Sheng can do it. Are you really competent?" Deng Sheng told about Su Hong's recommendation of Yao Guangxiao when he was dying, so it seemed that there was no other choice but Zhu Sheng.

Cheng Yu smiled, and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Zhu Sheng's ability is far superior to that of the old minister. Although Zhu Sheng is not the top among many military advisers, his qualifications and connections are unmatched by others. The old minister I believe that he can hold back, and there is still the King here, so the others can't make any waves."

Deng Sheng nodded and said: "Well, after Su Qing's matter is over, the widow will recall Zhu Sheng back to Wancheng. If he is really as Cheng Qing said, then the Military Aircraft Department will let him take charge, and he will be in charge." It's a matter of the widow's mind!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Cheng Yu said.

That night, Deng Sheng left Cheng Yu to have a meal in the palace, and the monarch and his ministers talked happily, and finally Cheng Yu left the palace drunk.
