My prime minister has the final say

Inside the imperial study.

Xiao Yi thought a lot, although there was nothing embarrassing about the court situation, but are there really no problems in the current situation?

"You have already set up this game, what will happen next? The big brother will not give in on this matter, obviously he will continue to move forward, but when he finds out that he was just plotted by you, then the existence in this The confrontation between the two is thorough, is it really possible to win it with full confidence?"

Qi Yang is already very sure, and there is no ambiguity at all, "Could it be that the emperor forgot that there is another person who can be used just right for this matter. The emperor's mind is between that matter, which makes the queen mother a little embarrassed. , this matter, but it can also be given to the Queen Mother and the Xun family, a new way out, of course, not Xun Biao."

When Xiao Yi heard this, he already understood in his heart, "You mean Cousin Xunhuan?"

"It was not useless to keep Xun Huan in the first place, and to continue to let him stay in the barracks. We must all admit that the members of the Xun family are indeed capable of leading the army. , then he will still be his military general."

"Xun Huan? Then how are you going to use him?" Xiao Yi asked.

Qi Yang said softly, "Don't worry now?"

"Why don't you worry? This matter can't be settled casually. Maybe Xiao Yue's matter is only related to the front, but right now these are related to the relationship between the two countries. If there is a little carelessness, I'm afraid it will be The two countries met in arms."

"Your majesty is truly a wise king of the people, and his benevolence is unmatched by anyone!"

"I can't be that decisive and cruel. Perhaps, the only thing I can give is this level. In your opinion, it is a very important 'benevolence'."

Qi Yang twisted the words together, "Of course it is very important. If an emperor is left with only that kind of cruelty, then there will be tyranny in the end, there will be dissatisfaction among the people, and it will lead to a dead end. But if an emperor has a benevolent heart, then this road can continue, because there will be courtiers under the emperor, and there will be capable people who can assist him."

"It's all you said, anyway, I'll just listen to it, and I'll believe anything you do!" Xiao Yi showed that warm-sun-like smile, and then put the words aside, "So, now I've sent someone to take the Cousin, please come into the palace?"

Qi Yang looked at Xiao Yi's warm smile, whoever was in front of him, that ice-cold existence had never changed, only, in front of Xiao Yi, everything was the warm current of three springs. "Don't worry, Jiang Yi has been told to do it, and Xun Huan will send a secret edict to enter the palace."

"Now that the secret edict is entering the palace, how should we deal with the following matters? At that time, are you sure that there will be no problems? Once Xun Huan leaves the capital, won't he still be discovered by them?"

"If it was Xun Huan in the past, of course he would, but the current Xun Huan is worthless. He doesn't have the high-ranking Xun family as before to rely on. He, Xun Huan, is no different from the most ordinary soldier."

"If that's the case, then how does he play a role?"

Qi Yang responded with a slight smile: "Don't worry about this, don't forget, the soldiers and horses we stationed in the western region are in Xilong country at this time, the reason why Rong Ze dared to mention this new reform policy is to fade away from Xilong country The fact that the aristocratic family is in power shows that Rong Ze is in control, we only need to give him a little help, and give him a cooperation from the inside out, and the soldiers and horses stationed in the western region are enough!"

Xiao Yi was not too clear, "How many soldiers and horses do we have in the western region?"

"The reason why Dongxuan Kingdom can be under these four kingdoms, there is Nanyang Kingdom in the south, Xilong Kingdom in the west, and Beiqiong Kingdom in the north, but bordering on these four kingdoms, it can guarantee the border security. That's because we are on the border Set up troops so that they don't dare to act rashly."

"It's like, when we were in the Lijiang River, the Nanyang Kingdom thought they had taken the lead, but in the end they still didn't dare to act rashly, did they?" Xiao Yi immediately thought of the things that happened in the Lijiang River at that time, as if it was true. of.

"That's right, that's it!" Qi Yang replied seriously.

After all, Xiao Yi didn't say any more, just followed the trend and waited for Xun Huan to come into the palace.

……

Asahi Palace.

After Xiao Xu confirmed that he had received the news, his mind was a little dazed. For a moment, his thoughts were all in one place, and he couldn't move it.

Standing by the side, Shen Si saw it in his eyes, and said in a warm voice: "My lord, this matter has already come out, and the House of Internal Affairs is in a mess now, and the whole thing is re-preparing in a hurry, think about it, Mr. Prime Minister So I'm afraid I don't have the mind to take care of other things."

"Is the news accurate?"

"It's accurate, it's all burnt like that, how could there be a complete thing?" Shen Si said with great conviction.

Xiao Xu naturally didn't dare to be ambiguous. Everything he did now had to be dealt with seriously. If there was a slight deviation, it would be a land of eternal doom. "However, in the news, it is said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs burned several people to death. At that time, the king ordered only to destroy those, and did not let you kill people."

"My lord, the murderer is someone sent by my subordinates, but someone from Prince Ying's residence!"

Hearing this, Xiao Xu frowned, "This insidious villain is adding fuel to the fire behind his back, okay, after this matter is over, he will be the first person I want to kill. He is the only one who thinks Can you sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight? There will be no possibility of losing both sides in this matter, isn't he good at calculating? This king wants to see if he can calculate, he will die soon."

"What the lord said is very true. King Ying thought that with careful planning all the time, he would be able to deal with all these wonderfully, but he didn't know that in the hands of the lord, the arrangements had already been made, and he waited for the day when things would come true. It was he who became a prisoner and began to pave the way to death!"

Xiao Xu looked cold, looked at the people in front of him, and put all the thoughts in his heart together, "Now, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is in a mess, and this road has gone wrong. That old thing Gu Xiu You should come here too!"

"What the prince said is very true. There was nothing reported in the court today, but the fire broke out last night, and the whole palace was already full of uproar. How could you not know, but this matter involves the emperor and the prime minister. My lord's important event was ruined just because of a fire, if the Ministry of Internal Affairs can't make it on time, I'm afraid they will all have to be buried for it!"

Shen Si didn't stop talking, but continued, "As far as the current situation is concerned, in just a few short days, it is impossible for them to have a chance no matter what."

Xiao Xu just chuckled, "If there is a fault in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, then the Ministry of Rites must be completely broken to really ruin the matter!"

Just as Xiao Xu's voice fell, a young man outside begged to see him, saying, Mr. Gu begged to see him outside!

Shen Si smiled, "My lord, Mr. Gu's arrival is really timely!"

"He has no choice of retreat. He has already boarded this king's ship. He has no chance to claim the right to disembark at a critical moment like Yang Chen and Su Yu did!" Xiao Xu said coldly, "Let him come here Bar!"

Then, Shen Si went out and led Gu Xiu in.

Gu Xiu came all the way, and only met Xiao Xu when he met him, "Your Majesty!"

Xiao Xu raised his eyes to look at Gu Xiu, and said in an unhurried voice, as if nothing happened, "Master Gu, what do you think of the current situation? Is the trouble in the Ministry of Internal Affairs enough to make Master Gu's affairs in the Ministry of Rites made a statement?"

"The lower official understands that what happened in the House of Internal Affairs today, the lower official already understands the reason for it, and coming here at this time is to have a word with the prince."

"Master Gu can see from the bottom of his heart that as long as you act according to the king's wishes, there will be no problems, but if Mr. Gu does not follow the king's wishes, Mr. Gu should understand what will happen! Even if this dispute arises Deviation, then this king will definitely not let the person who betrayed this king live well."

"The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials must handle this matter well."

"This king can make the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs achieve results so quickly. Presumably after today, the Ministry of Rites will also see the waves!"

"Yes, I understand!" Gu Xiu replied again and again, not daring to delay for a moment, and left the Xu Palace directly.

Xiao Xu glanced sideways at Shen Si beside him, "Shen Si, go see Master Gu off!"

Gu Xiu hastily declined, "Your Majesty doesn't need it, I just leave on my own."

So, Shen Si just stood beside Xiao Xu, looking at Gu Xiuyuan's back, "Master Gu is still obedient to your lord, there will be no problem."

"If this king doesn't put pressure on him and don't let him understand, he can only hug this tree tightly, otherwise he will end up dead. He is a cunning old fox. Infiltrate, do one thing with this king, and then perform another way in front of Qi Yang!"

Shen Si could hear it clearly, "All things are under your control, my lord, no matter whether it is Mr. Gu's side or the side of Prince Ying's mansion, there are no mistakes. Then the lord thinks when is the right time to let Xi What happened to the Long Kingdom? After all, in Luo City, if the matter of the Emperor and the Prime Minister is completely delayed, they will simply focus all their attention, will the prince act as soon as possible?"

Xiao Xu frowned, "Of course, this is an urgent matter. In Xijing City, Rong Ze has already made a move. If this king doesn't rush ahead, the follow-up will lose the opportunity, but we have to wait for the Ministry of Rites to do it well." , make Qi Yang completely powerless, so that this king can use his strength."

Shen Si nodded in response.

……

After rushing back to the palace from the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing, he had to avoid all the eyeliners set up in various places, and then came to the imperial study. When Xun Huan saw the emperor, it was already in the sky.

Xiao Yi sat in front of the dragon table, and the person who saluted said, "Excuse me!"

Xun Huan kowtowed and stood up, "I don't know why the emperor hastily summoned my ministers into the palace?"

When he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yi's eyes turned to Qi Yang, and he understood that the situation set up here came from the prime minister!

"That's right, the emperor's thoughts often come from the prime minister, maybe the humble minister should ask the prime minister who he is!"

Qi Yang said calmly, "Xun Huan, the official's purpose of keeping you in the military camp in the outskirts of Beijing is what I said at the time. Don't you understand now that you have to go through all kinds of troubles to enter the palace?"

Xun Huan paused, "Things happened really quickly, I don't know what arrangements the prime minister has for this humble minister?"

"Let you be ordered to go to the western region. I will fly pigeons to pass on the letter. You have the emperor's secret decree. At that time, the generals in the western region will obey your orders. Moreover, if it is not because of your father, it must be just your major general. Identity, they will all obey you!"

"It's just that I'm not right now." Xun Huan responded in a calm voice. "Then what is the purpose of going to the western region and mobilizing the troops in the western region? Putting the military power in my hands again, could it be..."

"If there was that suspicion, it would not have left you with a way out back then, let alone what happened today. Just do what you should do. Worrying about those things is not in your consideration." Qi Yang continued. : "When you arrive in the western region, you will mobilize the soldiers and horses in the western region. At that time, you need to cooperate with the order of Rong Ze, the regent of Xilong. When the coup d'etat occurs in Xilong, you should cooperate with him from the inside and outside, so that the emperor of Xilong can sit firmly in that place." Jiangshan, just help him to change successfully!"

Xun Huan is not stupid after all, it is clear and obvious, but it seems that this matter involves the Xilong Kingdom, and probably has something to do with King Xu, but why should he study these matters carefully, just do everything!

"Okay, Your Majesty, Your Excellency, when will I leave?"

"Immediately!" Xiao Yi conveniently took out the secret letter that Qi Yang asked him to prepare in advance just before Xun Huan's arrival, and reached out to Xun Huan.

In this regard, Xun Huan also knows that this matter involves a lot, and it is definitely not an existence of ambiguity. If this matter is completed, what he wants will be achieved. Once there is a mistake, there will be no follow-up. , Since then, he has been unknown, and it is impossible to reach the top of glory.

Xun Huan stepped forward, holding both hands, and received the secret decree handed over by the emperor, "I will not disgrace the mission, and do my best to handle this matter well!"

What he wants is to regain all that was lost due to his father's reckless offense, and regain it in his hands. What should have been in the Xun family before, is now under him, exactly.

Finally, Xun Huan quietly left the imperial study.

Xiao Yi only saw in Qi Yang's eyes that this matter has been accomplished, and as for the other things, he didn't have to worry about it at all.
