"Situ Gong, I am willing to take care of Zhong Hui's affairs."
When Wang Xiang spoke, the room in the Chancery immediately fell silent.
Gao Rou, Sima Fu and others looked at Wang Xiang in surprise, wondering why Wang Xiang suddenly took over this matter.
The ministers at the Shangshutai were all rejecting each other and refused to take the initiative.
Wang Xiang suddenly said this, which made the officials worried and did not dare to agree to him easily.
Does he have some conspiracy?
On weekdays, I would like to ask the minister to do it, but when the minister takes the initiative to ask for it, he dare not give it to him.
Looking at the hesitant people, Wang Xiang acted very magnanimously.
"Xiahou Gong, since you are seriously ill, please don't participate in temple affairs. We all know that you are dedicated to serving the country. Please go back and recuperate first. We really can't bear to see you dragging your illness and continue to work here."
Wang Xiang looked at Xia Houxian and said seriously.
Xia Houxian was furious, "I have never been ill!!"
"Xiahou Gong! Don't be stubborn! Prince, send someone to send him back."
Wang Jing hesitated for a moment, then stood up and looked at Xia Houxian. Xia Houxian's eyes were full of astonishment, "How dare you?"
"Please ask Mr. Xiahou to go back and cultivate."
As Wang Jing said this, someone immediately helped Xia Houxian out of the chancery. His furious roar could still be heard from far away.
Wang Xiang sighed, "Xiahou Gong is already so ill. He is worried about the country and the people and refuses to rest. But after all, he is a member of the clan. How can we just watch him become ill from overwork?"
The ministers were all silent at this moment. Ever since Cao Yu and Xia Houxian came to the Shangshutai, Xiahou Xian had been causing trouble for everyone, making it difficult for the Shangshutai meeting to proceed. No one expected that Wang Xiang would be so straightforward and not afraid of causing any controversy. He sent Xia Houxian back directly. It seemed that he wanted to imprison him directly?
Wang Xiang looked at Cao Yu who was standing aside and said seriously: "Your Majesty, do you think it's okay for me to do this?"
"After all, we are a clan, and I don't dare to be rude. I still want to ask you what you think."
Cao Yu's face turned pale. Wang Xiang had done everything he could. Now he wanted to ask his opinion?
Wang Xiang stared at him. Cao Yu suddenly felt a little stressed and couldn't help but nodded, "It's time to rest for a few days."
Wang Xiang looked at the ministers again, "We can only obey the king's order."
The ministers finally had smiles on their faces, and even Gao Rou couldn't help but nod.
"You must obey the king's orders."
The eyes of the ministers looking at Wang Xiang finally changed. If nothing else, just getting rid of this annoying spirit made the ministers very satisfied.
Gao Rou pondered for a moment and then asked, "Why does Taichang want to take over this matter?"
Wang Xiang said seriously: "Gentlemen, the temple matter has been delayed for too long. This is completely different from what we originally thought."
"When I informed Gong Lu of this matter, he didn't allow me to act without authorization. But now, we are all busy calming down the chaos and have been unable to implement it. This is wrong."
"We can no longer allow things to develop like this."
"Zhong Hui is just a minor illness. How can we neglect important things because of him? Let him do it. As long as we do our own things well, he will destroy himself."
"I already have a solution to Taixue's matter."
"Please allow me to take charge of the rest."
Wang Xiang said seriously.
This was asking for power. Gao Rou looked at him and then at Zheng Chong.
Zheng Chong did not rush to agree, but looked at the ministers.
Except for a few big bosses, the eyes of the other ministers were full of praise. Wang Xiang's step forward was one of the few good things in recent times.
Wang Xiang is right. Why do you always run behind Zhong Hui? Since the ministers are united, they should do great things!
Gao Rou deliberately opposed it. He had always been afraid of Wang Xiang. After all, this man was the first person to speak up for reform. He had faced Master Sima directly. Moreover, recently, he had become more and more disobedient and seemed to be trying to recruit Lu Yu's forces. Posture.
Sima Fu also frowned. The development of this matter was completely beyond Sima Fu's expectation.
Wang Xiang came forward at this moment, making it extremely difficult for Sima Fu to deal with. Sima Fu's original enemy was Gao Rou, and now there is Wang Xiang. Although Wang Xiang does not have the title of Three Dukes, he has the support of a large number of Jiuqing, so this matter will be solved. It's a bit difficult to handle.
Sima Fu looked at Zhong Yu in the distance. He wanted to know what people from Sima Zhao's group thought of Wang Xiang.
Zhong Yu was indeed unhappy.
After all, they don't want to see a sincere and united Chancellor at this moment.
Sima Fu did not object. Now that all the ministers wanted to implement this matter, it was not easy for him to step forward. Let Sima Zhao's people take action first.
Zheng Chong saw the general idea from everyone's faces, and then he said: "Okay, that's the case."
"Wait a minute."
Zhong Yu suddenly interrupted Zheng Chong.
Wang Xiang asked very calmly: "Why, does Mr. Zhong want to save his younger brother?"
Zhong Yu laughed, "That's not the case, I just remembered something."
"Gong Lu left Luoyang a few days ago. I took someone to see him off. Before leaving, he told me that it was the prince who informed him about the reform, and he never ordered the prince to go to the temple to submit a letter."
"If he hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you had such a talent."
"And I also heard that His Majesty told people these things when he was in Yuancheng. Later, the prince also held a celebrity banquet, summoning many ministers and celebrities, and then something happened in the temple."
"I have thought about it for a long time. After these things, no minister has benefited. On the contrary, His Majesty has benefited the most."
"My lord, you are His Majesty's teacher. Your Majesty is extremely respectful to you. Your Majesty even knows what happens in the Chancery."
"Now that you are saying that you want to take the initiative to resolve these matters, you are going to deal with Zhong Hui and others, not to turn around and deal with us, right?"
Wang Xiang said with a straight face, "Mr. Zhong, what do you mean?!"
"After Lu Yu fell, you are the biggest beneficiary!!!"
"Wang Taichang! What's going on with this rebellion?! When the rebellion first broke out, you said in the Chancery that you wanted to order the order for the foreign generals first!!"
"Did you and the general have an agreement long ago?!"
"The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel is very close to you. The Censor Zhongcheng is in your mansion all day long, and you are in charge of Taichang. The matters of appointment and promotion are vaguely in your hands!"
"Shouldn't you explain to us the rebellions in various places?!"
Zhong Yu's words became faster and faster, and the officials' eyes widened and they looked at Wang Xiang in disbelief.
Sima Fu's face was calm, but he couldn't help laughing in his heart.
My younger brother is a weirdo, and this older brother is also unusual.
At this moment, Wang Xiang finally no longer looked as calm as before. He stood up and stared directly at Zhong Yu in front of him.
"These words are not like what you would say, but more like what your brother would say."
"Why not let Zhong Hui question him face to face?"
Zhong Yu sneered, "Everyone knows that I don't get along with him. Prince, don't say anything more. Please explain these things clearly before going to deal with the so-called big things. Otherwise, I'm worried that the big things haven't been done yet." If it succeeds, rebellion will break out again!"
"You are so slanderous!"
"Spewing nonsense? Wang Taichang, if you accept the order now, what is the first thing you will do? Are you going to order goods for those foreign generals to win them over? Are you trying to win over them, or are you fulfilling the promise you made to them?"
Wang Xiang just felt like his head was buzzing at the moment.
He was very sure that this must be what Zhong Hui said.
Although Zhong Yu is a deep-minded person and has a sense of the overall situation, he is definitely not the kind of person who can confuse right and wrong and has a sharp tongue. He is not good at doing this kind of thing.
On the contrary, it is his younger brother Zhong Hui who is best at such shameless tricks!
The timing is so right.
It seems that the emperor informed Zhong Hui of this matter, and Zhong Hui found his brother again and blocked him here.
Although Zhong Hui was at odds with Zhong Yu, their interests were the same, and Sima Zhao also did not want the temple to be peaceful.
It seemed that he still underestimated the young emperor.
At this moment, Wang Xiang analyzed everything that happened. He looked at the ministers around him. At this moment, he found that the eyes of the ministers looking at him became strange. Even Cui Zan was like this. There was even some anger.
Wang Xiang secretly thought it was not good.
"Mr. Zhong, you should be the clearest about what this matter is. If it hadn't been for these things, I'm afraid General Wei would still be observing his filial piety, and he wouldn't be like now, with military power in hand and foreign generals everywhere obeying him. orders, but I don’t have the ability to mobilize them.”
"As for what you said about His Majesty, we are all His Majesty's ministers. Do we still dare to be disloyal to His Majesty?!"
"Zhong Yu! Aren't you a minister of His Majesty?! Do you want to rebel?"
Wang Xiang asked loudly.
Zhong Yu smiled and shook his head, sitting in his seat again, "Since Wang Taichang has said so, I will no longer object, and the ministers can decide what to do on their own."
The ministers suddenly fell silent.
The atmosphere in the Chancery became a little weird.
Zheng Chong looked at the many ministers in front of him again, feeling even more embarrassed.
At this moment, Zheng Chong already had the idea of resigning. He did not want to get involved in these things at all. In the past, he could still be an official with peace of mind when he had a general, but now in this situation, he can no longer stay and must leave quickly.
He said, "Let's discuss this later."
Wang Xiang wanted to say something, but he held back, and his expression calmed down again.
The meeting at Shangshutai ended in a hurry, and Wang Xiang ignored others and directly caught up with Zhong Yu.
"Zhong Jun is obviously from a high-ranking family, why would he do such a thing?"
Zhong Yu stopped and turned to look at him.
"Wang Taichang, I just told the truth. What do you want to do? Start a rebellion in my hometown?"
Wang Xiang laughed and said, "These lies of yours cannot deceive the officials. As long as the officials think calmly, they can find the flaws. You are doing useless work."
"I never lie."
