Wang Tang understood the emperor's intention in his mind, and without any worries, he said directly: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."
Ying Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Tell me and listen."
Wang Tang looked serious and reported: "Lin Feng has participated in all Qin's foreign wars, whether it is Gaochang, Xia, or the current war with Qi. Lin Feng has even served as a major decision-maker in the army. He is good at military affairs and knows the situation in the army well. Therefore, Lin Feng entered the court as an official. I think that he can be appointed as the Minister of War first, and please give your Majesty's advice."
Ying Jiuxiao frowned slightly.
Minister of War.
This is a good position.
Regardless of Lin Feng's age, becoming the Minister of War at the age of over 20 was already a monster-like arrangement. Historically, ministers in the imperial court could only serve when they were thirty or forty years old, and there were even some who were still ministers in their fifties and sixties.
However, Ying Jiuxiao was not satisfied.
Lin Feng must truly take power when he enters the court.
This is his layout.
With Lin Feng's support in the court, Ying Jiuxiao can ensure that Ying Yuqian can continue to implement Qin's reforms after Ying Yuqian ascends the throne. Otherwise, if Ying Yuqian does not have the prestige of Ying Jiuxiao, it will be difficult to advance many things.
Although all the reforms implemented by Lin Feng are going smoothly now, all of this is based on the strong support of Ying Jiuxiao. Once Lin Feng loses Ying Jiuxiao's support, he will fall into many disputes.
If you want to remain unmoved, you must enter the court and completely occupy your place.
Ying Jiuxiao was silent for a while. When Wang Tang saw it, his heart moved.
The emperor is not satisfied!
This means that Ying Jiuxiao expects Lin Feng to at least serve as a minister.
This is troublesome.
The official positions in the imperial court are like carrots and pits, and they are all numerous. As long as Lin Feng holds a major official position, there will be a chancellor to vacate his position in the court.
Wang Tang was also naughty and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I don't know how to make adjustments for a while. After all, this is not a matter of my household department. When it comes to the adjustment of officials, the official secretary Zhang Shu knows best."
Zhang Yi glared at Wang Tang.
This matter made it clear that the power of the current minister must be exercised.
This is something that offends people.
Zhang Yi did not dare not answer. He looked serious and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Duke of Zhen Guo has always been indifferent to fame and wealth. We are having a heated discussion here, but the Duke of Zhen Guo may not be willing?"
"If the Duke of Zhen does not agree to enter the officialdom, even if we finalize the matter, wouldn't it be a waste? The veteran suggested that after the Duke of Zhen returns home, we should give a simple reward first, and then ask the Duke of Zhen for his thoughts and ask His Majesty to make a decision. "
Ying Jiuxiao flicked his sleeves and said firmly: "No need, Lin Feng will agree."
brush!
Zhang Yi's expression changed slightly.
He immediately understood that the emperor was determined to make arrangements.
Zhang Yi also quickly thought about how to solve the problem. Although the emperor had arrangements, as the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, he could definitely confront the emperor and say that there was no problem with the ministers of various ministries. But even though Zhang Yi is senior, he has no confidence at all in front of Ying Jiuxiao.
When a new emperor succeeds to the throne, the new emperor has no foundation and cannot touch the old ministers because he has to protect his interests.
However, Ying Jiuxiao is different.
Ying Jiuxiao's prestige is too high, and he can follow his words and deprive Zhang Yi of everything with just one sentence.
Zhang Yi thought about it carefully and said: "I think it is necessary to arrange for the Duke of Zhen to be the Minister of the Ministry of War."
Wang Tang was surprised.
Minister of the Ministry of War.
This is Yandu!
We must know that Yan Du is quite competent in his position as Minister of War. The sudden removal of Yan Du from the post of Minister of War will inevitably breed dissatisfaction.
Wang Tang will not get involved in this matter.
Wang Tang knew very well that government affairs, especially personnel adjustments, had always been extremely sensitive.
It is enough for him to do the household affairs well.
When Ying Jiuxiao heard Zhang Yi's words, he nodded slightly and said, "Yan Du has resigned from the post of Minister of the Ministry of War. What position will Yan Du hold next?"
Zhang Yi looked as usual and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty, there was turmoil in Shuzhou before, so I arranged for Yue Yue to take office and take charge of Shu. However, Yue Yue has spent so long and has never completely solved the problems in Shu."
"Yan Du, Minister of the Ministry of War, is both literary and military. He is a man of both civil and military skills. He understands military matters. Therefore, I believe that Yan Du can be transferred to Shuzhou as the governor. The more the former governor of Shuzhou becomes more useful, he will be transferred back to serve in the imperial court. I am an official. In terms of the Ministry, there is a lack of a minister, and no talent has been selected yet. We can arrange for Yueyong to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."
When Wang Tang heard this, his eyes lit up.
Old fox!
As expected of Zhang Yi, this arrangement is perfect.
Logically speaking, a minister would be assigned to serve as governor in a local area, but in fact he was demoted. However, Shuzhou has never been stable, and barbarians are causing chaos on the border. Under this premise, arranging Yan Du to take office is to solve the problem.
This is tantamount to the imperial court placing high hopes on Yan Du, not relegating him, but relying on him.
Otherwise, if others don’t arrange it, how can Yan Du be arranged?
Yue Yong, the governor of Shuzhou, failed to successfully deal with the local troubles, but was transferred to the Ministry of Civil Affairs as a minister. The Book of Officials is the most important one. Serving as a minister in the Ministry of Personnel is equivalent to cultivating and relying on, and comforting Yue Yue.
Everything is different.
The entire arrangement did not offend anyone.
Moreover, whether it is Yan Du or Yu Yueyong, they all have to be grateful to Zhang Yi.
Because Yan Du held a local position, once he successfully solved local problems and was transferred to the imperial court, he would have to be given a heavy responsibility. After Yueyong is transferred to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and serves as a minister in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the next step is to be transferred to the position of Minister, or to serve as the governor of the most important state, which is naturally different.
Ying Jiuxiao tapped her hand lightly on the desk in front of her, but did not give a direct answer. Ying Jiuxiao was not satisfied with Zhang Yi's answer.
The good guy Zhang Yi was fooled, how could this be possible?
Ying Jiuxiao didn't speak for a long time, and the atmosphere in the hall became solemn for a while.
Zhang Yi and Wang Tang were sitting below with serious faces. They both felt a different atmosphere.
After a long time, Ying Jiuxiao opened his mouth and said, "As for Yue Yue's arrangement, it is not appropriate to transfer him to the Ministry of Personnel. He will be transferred to the Ministry of Works as the Minister of Works."
brush!
Zhang Yi's expression changed slightly.
This arrangement is tantamount to beating the greater the use, and derogating the use.
Of course, Yue Yueyong has indeed failed to achieve results in Shuzhou. This is something that can't be helped. The barbarians on the border of Shuzhou had been suppressed before. However, it is very inappropriate to rebel from time to time. In the final analysis, this is the responsibility of the governor.
Zhang Yi took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and said directly: "I will comply with your Majesty's arrangements."
Ying Jiuxiao nodded and said: "In that case, the matter is settled. Arrangements can be made after Lin Feng returns to the court."
"Here!"
Zhang Yi and Wang Tang answered in unison.
"Back off."
Ying Jiuxiao waved his hand.
Zhang Yi and Wang Tang stood up and bowed to Ying Jiuxiao. They walked out of the hall together. Zhang Yi stopped, looked at Wang Tang, and asked: "Wang Shangshu, you said that your Majesty suddenly wants to arrange for Duke Zhen to enter the court." What does it mean to be an official?"
Wang Tang shook his head and replied: "Your Majesty's thoughts are becoming more and more unfathomable. How can I guess it? Only Your Majesty himself knows about this matter."
"well……"
Zhang Yi sighed and said: "The situation in the DPRK and China is about to change."
Wang Tang said: "Don't worry about him, we just need to do the errands arranged by His Majesty. Furthermore, Lin Feng is a decent man, dedicated to the public, and has made great achievements for the Qin State. He joined the court as an official, and it will have no impact. . If Lin Feng is a flattering person and an incompetent person, that is different. Lin Feng laid the foundation of Qin State in Qin State. All these are different. "
Zhang Yi still frowned and continued: "Lin Feng's entry into the court can easily cause turmoil. It's not like you don't know Lin Feng's temper. He can't tolerate sand and has many ideas. More changes will be implemented in the court. , will affect more interests. Our peaceful life will be gone."
Wang Tang smiled and said, "Zhang Shangshu is right, but without Ansheng, Qin has become stronger and stronger, which is a good result."
"Wang Shangshu, Your Majesty invites you."
Just at this moment, a eunuch came out and spoke.
Wang Tang nodded after hearing this, bowed to Zhang Yi, and then turned back to the palace.
Zhang Yi glanced at it, shook his head and left.
Wang Tang went straight into the main hall, saw Ying Jiuxiao, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Tang, pays homage to your Majesty."
Ying Jiuxiao said in a deep voice: "Wang Qing, do you think it is a good thing or a bad thing for Lin Feng to enter the court?"
Wang Tang twitched his brows, braced himself, and said solemnly: "I think it is a good thing. Duke Zhen Guo has great insight, quick thinking, and is loyal to the Qin Dynasty. With Duke Zhen Guo here, Da Qin's overall strength will definitely be improved again. .”
Ying Jiuxiao smiled slightly and said, "That's good, let's go down."
Wang Tang was even more stunned.
He didn't understand what the emperor said just now. He asked him to leave the hall with just one question.
What does emperor mean?
Wang Tang didn't understand it in his mind and bowed before retreating.
He walked out of the hall and walked not far when suddenly Zhang Yi's voice came to his ears again. Zhang Yi asked: "Wang Shangshu, your Majesty summoned you, why did you come out so quickly?"
Wang Tang did not hide anything and said directly: "Your Majesty simply said a few words and asked whether it was a good or bad thing for Lin Feng to enter the court.
"That's it?"
Zhang Yi also had a puzzled look on his face.
Zhang Yi even didn't believe it. Because such a question is too unreasonable and difficult for people to understand.
Wang Tang nodded and said, "That's it."
Zhang Yi was doubtful and said tentatively: "Wang Shangshu, do you think I am easy to deceive? It is too confusing for Your Majesty to ask you this matter alone."
Wang Tang said: "I feel surprised too."
Zhang Yi chuckled, still doubting in his heart, and said: "In this case, Wang Shangshu is slowly thinking about it, and I don't understand it either. There are still many things to deal with in the official department, so I will take the first step."
Wang Tang also went straight back to the Ministry of Household Affairs and continued to think about the emperor's words. At this time, Wang Tang was reorganizing Ying Jiuxiao's arrangements. At the beginning, Ying Jiuxiao directly wanted to reward Lin Feng heavily. This was the emperor's reliance on Lin Feng.
Obviously, the emperor wanted to start cultivating Lin Feng.
Later, Ying Jiuxiao asked alone and mentioned whether it was good or bad for the court, but there was no more.
While Wang Tang was thinking about it, he suddenly thought of Zhang Yi's words. Zhang Yi said that the court would not be peaceful. So, does it mean that Ying Jiuxiao has predicted this outcome, beat Wang Tang in advance, and asked Wang Tang to take care of Lin Feng?
In other words, let Wang Tang support Lin Feng?
It's possible.
Wang Tang's eyes lit up. He felt that he had figured it out and thought it through.
The emperor wanted to support Lin Feng.
That's it.
However, the emperor seemed to have forgotten that with the emperor's support, who would dare to provoke Lin Feng? Based on what Lu Yi and others had learned before, everyone knew that Lin Feng could not be offended in Xianyang City. Under this premise, no one was willing to be Lin Feng's enemy.
The emperor was worried too much.
Wang Tang felt that after he had figured it out, he felt completely at ease. He just obeyed the emperor's arrangements. What's more, the Wang family and the Lin family are very close and support each other.
