"The Imperial Factory needs such talents!"
Hearing these words, Chen Yuan felt a chill somewhere in his body. Cao Zhengxian's adopted son Yang Yuanqing became even more jealous of Chen Yuan. For some reason, he just felt unhappy with Chen Yuan.
Seemingly sensing Chen Yuan's reluctance, Cao Zhengxian continued:
"Not everyone in the Imperial Factory needs to be cleansed. You don't need to worry. Don't worry. As long as you are willing to enter the Imperial Supervisory Department, this governor will definitely use you well.
Your talents will never be buried. "
Cao Zhengxian pinched his orchid finger, pointed at Chen Yuan and smiled.
Zhang Yantong snorted:
"Does Governor Cao mean that Chen Yuan was buried in our Tianxuan Department?"
"Isn't it? With Chen Yuan's talent and strength, he should have been transferred to the capital a long time ago, but you divine envoys are pushing back and forth, fighting each other secretly,
It is in vain that a good young man like Chen Yuan has been allowed to stay in the corner of Qingzhou for so long. If Chen Yuan were from the Imperial Supervision Department, this governor would never do this. "
"Chen Yuan was deliberately trained in Qingzhou by the envoy. Doesn't Governor Cao know that even the son of the envoy was sent to serve in the state capital below? Without such training, how could Chen Yuan defeat all the heroes in the world and reach the top of the mountain? Number one on the dragon list?
If it were in the Imperial Supervisory Department, haha... I'm afraid that would not be the case. "
"Zhang Shenshi has a problem with our Imperial Supervisory Department?"
"So what if you have an opinion? In the past few years, the Imperial Supervisory Department has repeatedly bullied our Tianxuan Department. Why, are you thinking that our Tianxun Department has no one? Governor Cao, the people in our Tianxun Department are all hard-blooded men, and they are not people who are free from trouble. "
In front of Jingtai, Zhang Yantong did not fear Cao Zhengxian at all. Even though various factions within the Tianxian Division were fighting endlessly, they were still able to act unanimously in the face of the Imperial Supervisory Division who came to seize power.
This is exactly what Jingtai wants to see, so he usually not only does not stop it, but also actively deepens the fight between the two companies. As long as it is within the rules, they are allowed to fight. M..coM
People can't be idle. When they are idle, all kinds of troubles will happen.
"Inexplicable and absolutely ridiculous!"
Cao Zhengxian snorted coldly and continued:
"That's because your Tianxian Division is incompetent. If you are really that powerful, go and defeat those demons in the Blood State."
"Why doesn't the Imperial Supervisory Department go? If Governor Cao dares, I, the Tianxun Supervisory Department, should follow closely behind."
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Jingtai coughed lightly and said calmly:
"They are all important ministers of the court, Zhenren Huayang, how can they be so noisy here?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It is true that Eunuch Cao was too deceptive, and I couldn't help but want to refute him."
"Your Majesty, forgive me. I just told a few truths. I didn't expect Zhang Shenshi to be still unconvinced."
Jingtai turned his eyes to Chen Yuan and said calmly:
"Both Governor Cao and Ambassador Zhang value you so much, what do you think?"
Chen Yuan's expression did not change, he cupped his hands towards Cao Zhengxian and said:
"Thank you very much, Governor Cao, for your kindness. It's just that Chen is used to being in the Tianxian Division. He will inevitably feel uncomfortable when he goes to the Imperial City Division. I hope the factory manager won't be surprised."
"It doesn't matter. If you are not satisfied with your stay in the Tianxun Division in the future, you can come to me as the Governor. There will always be a place for you in the Imperial Supervisor Division." Cao Zhengxian looked at Chen Yuan with a half-smile but said.
"With this envoy here, how could Chen Yuan not enjoy his stay?"
"Chen Qing, you defeated all the heroes in the world, climbed to the top of Qianlong, promoted the power of the imperial court, and managed the Tangshan Mansion well. It is a great achievement. Originally, I wanted you to break through in the secret realm of the capital. There will be Master Huayang will protect you, but since you have successfully broken through, this matter will be abandoned.
I have long said that I want you to take up a position in the capital and entrust you with important responsibilities. Can you find your favorite position in the Sky Patrol Department? "
Jingtai looked at Chen Yuan and asked.
"I'm afraid, I don't dare to accept His Majesty's love for me so much."
"Weak ministers are just a brick of the imperial court. Wherever they are needed, your majesty can go wherever they are needed. It is their duty to serve your majesty and contribute to the imperial court. I dare not make any demands."
Chen Yuan bowed.
Jingtai glanced at Chen Yuan with some appreciation. Although the other person was unwilling to kneel down and acted very extreme, his loyalty and attitude were very good.
If he is cultivated, he will become a pillar of the court and his arm in the future.
"What position do you two think Chen Qing is suitable for?"
His eyes were on Zhang Yantong and Cao Zhengxian.
Cao Zhengxian glanced at Chen Yuan with a half-smile:
"The old minister thinks that since Ambassador Chen Qing has done such a good job in Tangshan, he might as well become the commander of the city patrol. The capital has been unstable in recent years and must be suppressed."
"Where's Envoy Zhang?"
Zhang Yantong said in a deep voice:
"The commander of the city patrol is an offending job. With Chen Yuan's character, it is inevitable that he will cause some troubles. However, there is still a shortage of one of the four commanders of the imperial city recently. Wei Chen thought that it would be better to let Chen Yuan take this position. In this way, it can also be done Let some warriors who stare at the imperial court have nothing to say."
Ever since Chen Yuan was summoned to the capital, there has been some commotion in the world. It is speculated that Jingtai will give Chen Yuan a certain position. If it is lower, it will definitely arouse criticism.
Cao Zhengxian immediately retorted:
"The old minister thinks it is impossible. Chen Qingshi has just made a breakthrough. If he directly serves as the commander of the imperial city, he will inevitably attract criticism. There are many alchemy masters in the Imperial Supervision Department and the Tianxun Department who are eyeing him. Although Chen Qingshi has made a lot of contributions, , but it will inevitably make some people dissatisfied. After all,
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the minimum requirement for being able to hold the position of the eight major commanders inside and outside the capital is physical alchemy cultivation. There has never been an exception. With Chen Qingshi's strength,
The city patrol commander is more suitable. It will not be too late to appoint eight commanders after Chen Qingshi breaks through the real elixir. "
The city patrol commander is considered to be one level lower than the eight commanders, but he is not subordinate to the eight commanders. Instead, he directly takes orders from the four great envoys of the Patrol Division, which can be regarded as a high position and authority.
Generally, they are candidates for the eight major commanders. Compared with the outside world, they are slightly better than the deputy envoys of various states, but if the deputy envoys have real power, they will be among the best.
"Besides, the three-year ancestor worship is about to begin, and Ambassador Chen Qing has no experience at all. If he does not do well, not only will Ambassador Chen Qing be criticized, but also His Majesty, I am afraid..."
A recently vacated leadership position had long been targeted by Cao Zhengxian, and it was prepared for Yang Yuanqing. Although he had a good status with the emperor, he still had too little real power.
He has not yet taken up the position of commander of the imperial city, so he can naturally take over the position of governor in the future. For this adopted son, Cao Zhengxian is heartbroken.
Moreover, today Yang Yuanqing was reprimanded by the emperor again. The holy family is gradually disappearing, so preparations must be made early.
"Wei Chen feels that Governor Cao's words are wrong. Now everyone in the world knows that it was His Majesty who summoned Chen Yuan to the capital and entrusted him with important tasks. If he is only given the position of city patrol commander, it will inevitably make people feel petty.
Chen Yuan brought prestige to the country and became the first person in the imperial court to reach the top of Qianlong. Isn't such merit enough to stop those Youyou's mouths? As for what kind of experience it is, Governor Cao is talking nonsense. "
Upon hearing the words 'nonsense', Cao Zhengxian's expression changed slightly. Even though he was an eunuch, he did not want others to call him that.
In fact, with his cultivation and strength, he has long been able to find spiritual objects and regenerate their severed limbs, but... it is of no use in this harem.
Furthermore, he himself has no interest in this kind of thing. Isn't it just a matter of getting in and out?
"The three-year ancestor worship ceremony is based on the script and is based on previous years. Besides, the commander of the imperial city is only responsible for guarding. Things like sacrifice etiquette are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites."
"Governor Cao said before that Chen Yuan is the pillar of the country and a talented person. Is it possible that he is so talented that he cannot take on the position of commander of a mere imperial city?"
Zhang Shenshi said in a deep voice.
"His Majesty...."
Cao Zhengxian was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Jingtai raising his hand and saying calmly:
"What the two beloved ministers said makes sense, but after all, Chen Qing has made great contributions to the court. How can he convince the public if he doesn't give him a generous reward?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengxian frowned and said quickly:
"Your Majesty, it is true that Chen Qingshi has meritorious service, but Yang Yuanqing has worked hard to serve Your Majesty for so many years. The old minister originally wanted him to serve as the commander of the imperial city."
He knew very well that in recent years, the emperor had deliberately weakened the power of the Tiantian Division in the capital, and wanted the Imperial Supervisory Division and the Tiantian Division to restrain each other. Previously, the Imperial Supervisory Division had seized the two imperial city commanders from the Tiantian Division, and it was Jingtai who did this intentionally. .
Hearing these words, Jingtai was choked up and did not continue. He originally wanted to appoint Chen Yuan directly, which is why Cao Zhengxian interrupted.
The emperor's word is true, and the constitution is in his mouth. Once it is spoken, it will not be changed, especially-->>
[Reading updates are slow to load, there are ads, and chapters are incomplete. Please exit Reading and read again! 】
This is especially true in front of so many people, which will damage the emperor's majesty.
"You also want to serve as the commander of the imperial city?" Jingtai turned his eyes to Yang Yuanqing.
"The humble minister also wants to contribute to the country and guard the imperial city for His Majesty." Yang Yuanqing immediately bowed and said. He did not say that he had stayed with the emperor for too long and wanted some real power.
That will kill people!
In fact, the reason why he asked his adoptive father to transfer him to the position of commander of the imperial city was that in addition to wanting real power, he also wanted to be further away from the emperor. In recent years, he felt that the emperor had become more terrifying and moody.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, and he is a little timid.
That's why I wanted to stay away. Otherwise, if we just talk about power and status, working beside the emperor, not to mention the eight commanders, even the golden envoys in some remote state capitals are not as good as him.
Those concubines and maids in the palace who wanted to seek the emperor's blessings had to support him and let him do whatever he wanted.
Jingtai tapped his fingers on the table, narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought about something in his mind. The reason why the Imperial Supervisory Department was able to seize the two commander positions of the Tianxian Department in the imperial city was just as Cao Zhengxian thought, it was because of his instructions. .
That's why the Imperial Supervisory Department was able to succeed, and that's why the divine envoys of the Tianxun Tiansi didn't react too strongly. Otherwise, the power of the Tianxun Tiansi would not be comparable to that of the Imperial Supervisory Department.
And his real purpose is to completely separate the inner and outer cities. The four commanders of the outer city will be handed over to the Tianxun Division, while the four commanders of the inner city will be handed over to the Imperial Supervisor Division.
The strength of the Tianxun Division is too strong. A peerless true king is seeking to break through to the sixth realm. Four powerful God Refiners are stationed in the capital, and there are more than ten golden envoys guarding one side outside.
If they have any strange intentions...
It is inevitable that what happened to the royal family will not happen again.
Of course, not only the Tiantian Division, but also the military side, Jingtai, is also gradually weakening, scattering people from several towns in the capital, and firmly holding it in its hands.
If you want to revive the Jin Dynasty and eliminate its decline, you must first take all the power into your own hands, so as to stop the declining imperial court.
Looking at Jingtai's thoughtful look, Zhang Yantong frowned and naturally thought of something. I'm afraid Chen Yuan's appointment as the commander of the imperial city was not that simple.
After all, this goes against Jingtai’s long-standing plan.
Chen Yuan also squinted his eyes, raised his head and looked at Yang Yuanqing at the side. A coldness flashed in their eyes, and both of them disliked each other.
If Cao Yungou hadn't mentioned Yang Yuanqing just now, I'm afraid his position as commander of the imperial city would have come to an end.
"Is there any shortage of funds from each state's envoys recently?"
Jingtai's eyes turned to Zhang Yantong.
"There are no flaws, but the Golden Envoy of Liangzhou sent a letter saying that the Northern Liang Palace has almost ignored it, and the entire military and political affairs of Liangzhou are in the hands of the Northern Liang Prince. I hope the imperial court can reprimand the Northern Liang Prince. "
Zhang Yantong whispered.
"King of Northern Liang..." Jingtai took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"Since Liangzhou is short of people, we will promote one of the outer city commanders to become the Golden Envoy. If one is not good enough, then we will use two. We must stabilize the situation in Liangzhou, at least...to keep things going."
It is absolutely impossible for him to directly rebuke the King of Northern Liang. The reason why the Liangyou border is still impregnable is because the King of Northern Liang has withstood most of the pressure in Liangzhou.
If he was dissatisfied with the court because of the rebuke and deliberately caused some trouble, it would inevitably give him a headache. Since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, he had repeatedly tried to weaken the power of the Northern Liang King.
But he avoided them all one by one. If he couldn't avoid them, he would directly signal his subordinates to open the loophole and let the barbarians enter the Central Plains.
His elite 300,000 Northern Liang cavalry were feared even by the imperial court.
Together in battle, we are invincible.
"I obey the order."
Zhang Yantong finally understood that this was the emperor's detour. He neither wanted to lose his temper for not re-employing Chen Yuan, nor did he want to return the power to the Tiantian Division.
But fortunately, the position of commander of the outer city is not inferior to that of the commander of the inner city. Chen Yuan has been entrusted with an important task. The only person who will suffer may be the commander of the outer city who is about to be transferred from the capital.
Although the Golden Envoy has a high and powerful position, it depends on where he is. Even if he becomes the Jin Envoy in Liangzhou, he will be in charge together with others. Moreover,
There is also the King of Northern Liang here, which is really not a good job.
"Chen Qing, Yang Qing, there is still a lack of a commander in the outer city, who is not inferior to the commander of the imperial city. You both have merit, so please choose one each."
The implication was that he wanted Chen Yuan to serve as the commander of the outer city, which made Yang Yuanqing curl up into a sneer.
But if Chen Yuan fails to achieve his goal, how can he give up?
He bowed to Jingtai with a solemn expression and said:
"No one dares to have any opinions about where your majesty places the minister, and there is no difference between the two cities inside and outside. If it were someone else, the minister could choose him first, but Yang Yuanqing is different. There are some differences between this room and the minister. I have a personal grudge, and I am unwilling to give in. I ask your Majesty to allow me to fight with him.
If he wins, the humble minister can choose, if the humble minister wins..."
"arrogant."
Yang Yuanqing squinted his eyes. He had long wanted to fight with him. When he heard Chen Yuan's words, he immediately bowed and said:
"Wei Chen is also willing to fight Chen Qingshi, but the conditions must be changed. If Wei Chen wins, I hope Chen Qingshi will serve as the commander of the city patrol. If Wei Chen loses, the same is true!"
Jingtai's eyes darkened slightly:
"How can I tolerate my determination as a child's play?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me."
"Your Majesty, forgive me."
Chen Yuan and Yang Yuanqing said quickly.
Cao Zhengxian's eyes moved and he agreed:
"Your Majesty, since Ambassador Chen Qing and Yang Yuanqing have some personal grudges, we might as well take this opportunity to settle them. This way we can better contribute to the court and avoid stumbling upon each other in the future. Besides, it is said that Ambassador Chen Qing has unparalleled combat power and can It will not be difficult to defeat Yuan Qing in a battle across the ranks. Also, since His Majesty admires Chen Qingshi so much, doesn’t he want to see how powerful he is?”
Zhang Yantong frowned and looked at Chen Yuan. In his opinion, this fight could be completely avoided. The commander of the outer city was no weaker than the commander of the inner city. He went to fight Yang Yuanqing with Chen Yuan's virtual elixir cultivation not long ago. , it’s really unwise.
Is it just to let out a sigh of relief?
Of course that's not the case. In fact, Chen Yuan just wanted to find a suitable excuse, otherwise he would have to serve as the commander of the outer city, which would go against the plans of the Taoist Palace too much.
He is bound to win the imperial city!
Facing Zhang Yantong's gaze, Chen Yuan gave him a reassuring look, let him stare for a moment, and then echoed:
"What Governor Cao said is not unreasonable. Since there is a grudge between Chen Yuan and Eunuch Yang, we might as well take this opportunity to settle it completely. If Chen Yuan loses, it will prove that his current strength is not enough and he will be a patrolman." No matter how good the city commander is, he can stop the mouth of Youyou in the world. If he wins,
His Majesty can rest assured that the position of commander of the imperial city is given to him. "
Jingtai glanced at the two of them slowly and said softly:
"Are you two really fighting?"
Chen Yuan took a step forward:
"Please give me your Majesty's permission."
"Your Majesty, please give me your permission. They say that the demon sword Chen Yuan is the best in the world. Weichen has always disagreed. Today I have the opportunity to see it. It can be regarded as fulfilling Weichen's wish."
Yang Yuanqing said loudly.
Jingtai's face showed no sadness or joy, and he continued:
"Since you are determined to have a fight, I won't stop you, but today is a battle of spirits after all. If anyone loses, don't blame me afterwards."
"Wei Chen doesn't dare."
"Wei Chen doesn't dare."
"If whoever wins, the position of commander of the imperial city will be his, and there will be no objections. In addition, I will re-select the commander of the outer city."
His original intention was to have Chen Yuan serve as the commander of the outer city and Yang Yuanqing as the commander of the imperial city, but since both of them were dissatisfied, the winner would come first.
The loser gets nothing.
This is the consequence of disobeying him.
There is no such thing as a happy ending. Each leader chooses one. Right now, there is only one position left.
"Weichen understands."
"Weichen understands."
Chen Yuan and Yang Yuanqing bowed one after another and said.
Jingtai glanced at the two of them, looked at Zhang Yantong and said:
"This battle will determine the position of commander of the imperial city. If the other envoys want to come, they can also come and have a look."
"yes...."
