After being surprised, the officials had mixed reactions.
With Liang Xiao's current status and talents, it is certain that he will become a consort in the future, but those aristocratic families will definitely object.
As long as Liang Xiao continues to perform meritorious service or has some official qualifications, it will be a matter of time before he becomes the consort.
But now that Tuoba's affairs have taken precedence, Duan Yunyi canonizes Liang Xiao as his consort, so there won't be much hindrance.
Is it still necessary to make external arrangements at this time...
Duanmujie, Gongyang Yun and others became more active.
Where will the empress arrange for Liang Xiao to serve?
Duan Yunyi looked at the officials in the audience, and he expected everyone's reaction.
"Where do the ministers think it is best for Liang Aiqing to serve?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Duanmujie and others spoke one after another.
"Guanlong!" "Western Regions!" "Bashu!"
Duan Yunyi frowned and looked speechless.
They didn't even bother to hide their malice towards Liang Xiao.
Which of these areas is not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den?
The governors of Bashu and Guanlong have always been elected by local warlords. Today, the court's control is weak and beyond its reach.
Unless they march westward in the future, they will completely capture these areas and firmly control them.
Zhuge Hui took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that Jiangnan has outstanding people and a stable and prosperous place, which is suitable for Liang Xiao to display his talents."
Sure enough, he wanted to arrange for Liang Xiao to go to Jiangnan!
The ministers of the aristocratic family were shocked.
Once Liang Xiao goes to Jiangnan and vigorously develops the industry under his name, what else can he do?
By then, Jiangnan's wine, sugar, and newspaper industries will all be monopolized by him.
Moreover, the empress has placed Liang Xiao as a close minister in Jiangnan. If Liang Xiao is allowed to control Jiangnan in the future, he will be in harmony with the capital...
Gongyang Yun was the first to object.
"The Prime Minister's words are wrong. The governors in various places in the south of the Yangtze River are managing well, so how can they let others add unnecessary extravagance? In my opinion, it would be good to send Liang Xiao to Liaodong or Yanzhou!"
"In the bitter cold land of Yanzhou, he is the only child of the Lanlinghou Mansion. If something goes wrong, how can the imperial court be worthy of the heroic sacrifice of the Lanling Marquis?" Zhuge Hui said disapprovingly.
Duanmujie and others also came out one after another to argue.
Even if they received the news in advance that Liang Xiao was going to Jiangnan, even if the matter was confirmed, they at least did not expect Liang Xiao to go so smoothly.
Duan Yunyi was impatient.
"Let's discuss it with the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Ministry of Officials. I hope to arrange this as soon as possible. After all, Da Zhou is in urgent need of talents."
After the dispersion of the dynasty, Duanmujie led all the officials to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the two sides argued endlessly.
Duan Yunyi returned to the palace with a rare serious expression.
This time's trial made her understand that the situation in Jiangnan was not good either.
Having military power does not mean controlling everything. It is entirely possible for these aristocratic families to incite local gentry and poor people to revolt everywhere.
However, they still have a place in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The official position brings intangible and huge conveniences, which is enough for them to tolerate Liang Xiao's challenges and the emperor's temper.
Next, it will be handed over to Liang Xiao and the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After Liang Xiao learned about the situation of the court meeting, it was just the same as before, without any changes.
This matter cannot be rushed. After all, Duan Yunxiu is not pregnant yet, and the Liang Jiajun's old troops also need training.
Instead, Zhuge Hui mobilized everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion and argued with the officials all afternoon, refusing to give in to each other.
The Gongsun Family Chamber of Commerce learned about the situation immediately.
"The empress wants to transfer him to the south of the Yangtze River? Didn't that 'ethnic' person say that he is going to Yanzhou?"
Gongsun Yue looked confused.
She couldn't contact the mysterious tribesman, and she didn't dare to contact him for fear of being exposed.
But Gongsun Xunfeng clearly told her to trust this person's judgment.
"Even if this beast intends to go to Yanzhou, the empress cannot agree, right? What if he dies in Yanzhou..." Gongsun Yue was in trouble.
The Gongsun family's chamber of commerce is transporting rice to Yanzhou, which is what the mysterious tribesman meant.
"Miss, how should we plan the plan?" Gongsun Ling looked puzzled.
After Gongsun Yue thought deeply, he gritted his teeth and said: "Let's go to Yanzhou to arrange a large number of industries, and we won't change it!"
"Why Yanzhou?" Gongsun Ling asked rarely.
Gongsun Yue hesitated for a moment and hummed: "Because he has the world in mind..."
Gongsun Ling was speechless.
In the eyes of everyone in the Gongsun family, Liang Xiao's trip to Jiangnan was just the icing on the cake.
But if going to a place like Yanzhou can improve people's livelihood and strengthen defense, it will be a timely help!
After Gongsun Ling repeatedly confirmed Gongsun Yue's order, he began to mobilize the Gongsun Chamber of Commerce's fleet to go to Yanzhou with personnel and funds.
After Gongsun Ling left, Gongsun Yue sat alone in the yard, feeling coy.
Among the letters sent home by her second sister, there were also letters from her grandfather.
According to Zhuo Mingfeng, since the Gongsun family was not sure of restricting Liang Xiao's development, they should tie up certain interests with Liang Xiao, or even enter into a marriage, in order to win Jiang Fuxue's favor.
After all, if they don't cooperate with Liang Xiao, the Dingguo Hou Mansion and other forces will also seek cooperation with him, which is equivalent to giving away the profits.
In other words, her grandfather had no objection to marrying her to Liang Xiao and letting Jiang Fuxue go home to visit relatives, but he just let her do it easily...
Her parents still don't know about this matter.
Gongsun Yue's mood is extremely complicated now.
In the past, she would have been so furious that she would have cried when she got home and asked her grandfather to take his life back.
This time, I am not angry at all?
She even looked forward to whether Liang Xiao would really go to Yanzhou as the tribesman said...
"I don't want to be a concubine..." Gongsun Yue murmured to herself, her eyes full of grievances.
Concubines have no status, and if they are more miserable, they may even be given away.
The news that Liang Xiao was about to be transferred abroad soon spread throughout the city, and the streets and alleys were filled with voices discussing the matter.
"Isn't Marquis Lanling going to be the consort in the capital?"
Everyone found it incredible.
In Dingguo Hou Mansion, Mrs. Mu was chatting with Mu Qinxue.
After learning about Liang Xiao's ambition, Mrs. Mu couldn't help but feel happy and said: "He is quite similar to his grandfather and Wu Sheng. He is calm and takes the world as his own responsibility."
Mu Qinxue felt mixed emotions.
Fortunately, her lover can be recognized by someone like her grandmother.
Of course, he was worried about Liang Xiao's safety.
The capital is the safest, but Liang Xiao told him that he was born in trouble and died in happiness. For Duan Yunxiu's sake, he couldn't just sit in the capital and enjoy the blessings. He had to go out and train an army with his own hands, improve the defense of the northern border, and prepare for the future. Be fully prepared for the strong development of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He wanted revenge, but also for the girl who entrusted her body and soul to him.
Early the next morning, a Yulin army of more than 500 people was guarding outside the military camp in the south of the city, specifically prohibiting outsiders from entering.
"It's just a training exercise. As for letting us guard the gate?"
Everyone in the Yulin Army looked unhappy.
They were ordered to guard the door for Liang Xiao to prevent the news of Liang Jiajun's training from leaking out.
On the military parade platform, Liang Xiao looked at the 2,400 Liang family troops below with a stern expression.
"It has been more than a month since you all joined the army. You train hard every day and work hard without complaint. You are very good!"
"Starting today, practice battle formations!"
