Unparalleled Concubine

Seeing what the Son of Heaven said, Shen Kuan turned his head to look at Li Xin, cupped his hands and said, "The Grand Tutor is the emperor's teacher, so His Majesty will naturally speak for the Grand Tutor, but the Grand Tutor doesn't want to break the court rules, does he?"

"Besides, the Ministry of War is in the capital, and the imperial army is outside the city. The Taifu must be too busy alone."

Li Xin, who had been silent all this time, still tucked his hands into his sleeves, turned his head, gave Shen Kuan a faint look, and smiled.

"Shen Xiang is right. The late emperor's obedient arrangements really broke the rules. If so, after I go back today, I will write a letter to the imperial court and resign from the post of Secretary of the Ministry of War."

Now is the first year of Yuanzhao, and Li Xin started to serve as Minister of the Ministry of War in the third year of Taikang, and he has been doing it for seven full years.

However, in the past seven years, he has not paid much attention to the Ministry of War. In the past few years, the old servant Xie Jun took care of the Ministry of War, and later Ye Lin took care of the Ministry of War. Whether he wants the Minister of the Ministry of War is not a big problem.

Anyway, it will be handed over to Ye Lin sooner or later, it is better to hand it over now, he will write a letter to resign as Minister of the Ministry of War, and then recommend Ye Lin, Ye Lin's qualifications are enough for the position of Minister.

Shen Kuan looked at Li Xin in astonishment, and was stunned for a moment.

In his opinion, Li Xin's age is the time when his desire for power and fighting spirit are the strongest. Besides, everyone in the court knows that this Lord Jing'an is not a good tempered person. In his opinion, no matter what, Li Xin Xin will also fight for reasons and will not give up any identity.

But Li Xin gave up so simply and neatly.

Shen Kuan quickly reacted and bowed to Li Xinchang.

"The Tai Tuo understands righteousness deeply, and this old man admires him."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes, and chuckled: "Shen understands righteousness, Prime Minister Shen, let's wait a while before saying it."

He stepped out of the queue of military officers on the right, took out a document from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and then bowed slightly to Emperor Yuanzhao.

Taifu Li's voice was clear and bright.

"Your Majesty, Minister Shen Shutai colluded with the Governor's Mansion and colluded with Qian Sheng, the Minister of the Ministry of War, to control the Forbidden Army and plot evil!"

As soon as he said these words, the hall of Weiyang Palace was not silent, but an uproar.

The chief governor, Ji Lin, was impatient. He almost walked out of the queue, but finally he gritted his teeth and gave Li Xin a hard look.

Two days ago, Li Xin had warned him in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, asking him to think carefully about how the court would speak in the past two days. At that time, Ji Lin thought that the young Tai Tuo would at most cooperate with him and participate in the Shangshu Taiwan, but unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was also involved!

This is to offend four ministers at the same time!

The big Sima cursed in his heart.

Facing the court ministers, according to the most basic logic, at this time Li Xin should also pull one and beat one, instead of offending four at the same time!

Is he, Li Xin, crazy?The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion can obviously stand by him!

The three ministers on the other side also stared wide-eyed.

Compared to everyone's shock, the protagonist, Lord Jing'an, still looked calm.

No one understood why he did this.

In fact, since Emperor Taikang died, he didn't pay attention to the rest of the Taikang dynasty.

Emperor Yuanzhao on the throne stood up from his chair after being dazed for a long time. He looked at Li Xin with some doubts.

"Teacher... what did you say?"

Chapter 858

Originally, things didn't have to be so big.

For example, the transfer order of Fangshan Zhechong Mansion, if another person takes Li Xin's place, or swallows his anger, or the matter gets into the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, it's fine to abolish the transfer order. There is no need to make trouble in the court. In front of the emperor who is not in charge.

Even if it really happened in front of the emperor, you can still participate in Shangshutai for doing things that are not in compliance with the rules, participate in the overreach of the governor's office, and participate in Qian Sheng's private use of inspection and verification seals.

These three crimes are considered crimes separately, and they are not very big.

Even if they are put together, it's just mobilizing a small Fangshan Zhechong Mansion, not a big deal.

But Li Xin counted all these crimes together, not only that, he also "sublimated" a bit, and directly participated in their intention to control the Forbidden Army!

This is a great sin, the forbidden army is the emperor's sword, and all the emperors of all dynasties have regarded the forbidden army as their own forbidden army. Even if the emperor Yuanzhao was young and had not yet taken charge of the government, he would feel a little scared when he heard this sentence.

Lord Jing'an remained expressionless. He held up the document again, bowed his head to the emperor, and said, "Your Majesty, three days ago, I went to the Right Camp of the Imperial Army to handle military affairs. He was demoted, but the former Qianniu Weilang, Zhou Qingyang, was transferred to Zhechong Mansion in Fangshan without the minister's knowledge, and became the captain of Zhechong."

"The minister is the general of the Youying Army of the Forbidden Army. The replacement of the captain of the Youying Zhechong is not to mention nominated by the minister, but the court must at least notify the minister in advance."

Having said that, he raised his head to look at the emperor.

"It's true that the imperial court has the right to directly appoint Captain Zhechong, so you don't have to know the generals of the forbidden army, but at this time, I'm still the Minister of the Ministry of War, a change of military attache of the fourth rank, and this Minister of the Ministry of War knows nothing about it. The servant Ye Lin doesn't know anything, even the Langzhong and Yuanwailang of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War don't know anything about it!"

Lord Jing'an's voice was heavy.

"This transfer order comes from the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. It also has the seal of Shang Shutai, and even the inspection seal of the Military Selection Department of our Ministry of War."

As he said that, Li Xin said in a deep voice: "The minister traced all the way to the source of the military department, only to find out that the right servant of our military department colluded with the two principals, and secretly inspected the seal. At this time, the right servant Qian Sheng and the two principals have been suspended by the minister. I went home and waited for the court to interrogate."

"However, there is more than just the inspection and verification seal of the Ministry of War on this document."

Li Xin was expressionless, and said slowly: "There are also the seals of the Shangshutai and the governor's mansion on it. Qian Sheng is just a small servant of the Ministry of War. It cannot be him who is responsible for this matter. What the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion or the Shangshutai did, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the Shangshutai respectively commanded our military generals and civil servants in the Great Jin Dynasty, but they were colluding, intending to bypass the imperial court, bypass the Ministry of War, and replace the Imperial Army's Zhechong Duwei!"

"There are only eight Zhechong Mansions in the Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army, of which there are more than [-] people in Fangshan Zhechong Mansion. If Shang Shutai and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion can exchange Fangshan Zhechong Mansion silently, then the other seven mansions can be exchanged. It is even possible to replace all the captains of the sixteen Zhechong prefectures of the Gyeonggi Imperial Army with their own people."

Lord Jing'an turned around slowly, and looked at Ji Lin and the ministers at Shangshutai.

"The princes of Shangshutai and the governor are all extremely human ministers. They are all auxiliary ministers ordered by the late emperor. In terms of power, they have divided civil and military affairs. Even the imperial army is also under the control of the governor's office. I don't understand why they would do anything at all. The price is to get the military power of the forbidden army."

"After thinking about it for the past few days, I only thought of four words in the end."

"The Lord is suspicious of the country."

In recent years, although Li Xin has been "looming" in the court hall, giving people a feeling of being very cold and not talking much, but Li Chang'an was a "lobbyist" in his early years. It was Hou Jingde, he was the one who won over to the Wei Palace camp.

When it comes to speaking skills, there are not many people who can beat him.

Eloquent words were spoken, which made the governor Ji Lin and several prime ministers all look ugly.

Li Xin only paused, and then continued to the emperor: "Your Majesty has not yet ruled personally, so why not let these ministers do nothing, but the rules of the Great Jin cannot be disturbed by these ministers, and the state system of the Great Jin cannot be broken in the hands of these people."

Lord Jing'an, with his sleeves fluttering, bowed deeply to the Son of Heaven.

"Following the late emperor's last order, I command the forbidden army to protect Your Majesty. You must not sit back and watch the thieves, spy on the artifacts, and plot evil!"

"Today, the prime minister has no prime minister, and the assistant ministers are not ministers. I beg your Majesty... to govern personally!"

As he spoke, Li Xin knelt down on the ground slowly, closing his eyes and saying nothing.

He didn't make it clear, but the underlying meaning is still very clear. Today, the emperor is not in charge of the government. Although he has a high status, his actual power is not as good as these ministers. The halo of the ministers will be taken off, and they will be just ordinary courtiers by then.
