At noon on June 19, the emperor summoned Yang Yansi, the Minister of War, and Xu Hong, the left minister of the Ministry of War.
Not long after, Xu Hong, the left minister of the Ministry of War, was captured by the Golden Sword monks and was immediately escorted out of the hunting ground and returned to the imperial city. It seemed that he was going to hand over to the Black Flag Battalion of Fengri City who were inspecting the Xu family in the imperial city. However, Yang Yansi, Minister of War, was not seen.
It wasn't until Shen Chu that Yang Yansi walked out of the emperor's tent with an expressionless face. Those who were more attentive could see a trace of paleness on his face, and his eyebrows were filled with worry.
Many people breathed a sigh of relief, while some were dissatisfied and cursed inwardly.
Yang Yansi didn't seem to be implicated, and the matter was over when Xu Hong was there. This is a blessing among misfortunes for the army. The leading figures are still standing, so they will not collapse. The civil servants naturally secretly said that it was a pity. If Yang Yansi was as unlucky as Xu Hong, wouldn't the army be rubbed by them as much as they wanted?
Afterwards, the emperor ordered the camp to be broken up, officially declaring the end of the "safari" in which the emperor personally went out to help set traps.
No one noticed that there were two unfamiliar monks beside Yang Yansi, who was slightly pale and expressionless. Before following Yang Yansi, these two people had followed Yongsheng King Yang Xiu Sheng, but now they were dressed as military guards.
In the emperor's carriage in the Chinese Army, Yang Xiusheng had just finished adjusting his breath. He didn't find it difficult when he captured Xu Hong and Yang Yansi in the big tent before. For Xu Hong, a single thought can make the opponent lie on the ground unable to move. Although Yang Yansi had emergency response, it was still too slow, and he was unprepared for the sudden attack. How could he stop it?
This is the huge gap between the first level of Xuankai and the third level of Xuankai.
But when Yang Xiusheng later used the pulse-cutting method on Yang Yansi, it cost him a lot. Because the difficulty of intercepting someone else's meridians to prevent them from moving varies from person to person. The higher the level of cultivation, the stronger the meridians, so it will naturally be more difficult to intercept them. It was also the first time for Yang Xiu Sheng to use the method of cutting off the pulse on a Xuanhai realm monk, and the consumption was much higher than he thought before.
But fortunately the results were good. Yang Yansi's true energy was cut off, and he was fed the elixir of inert energy and turbid consciousness. Now he is just an ordinary person with stronger physical functions. Moreover, Yang Xiu Sheng also took down two of his bodyguards to follow Yang Yansi, so he could capture them as soon as possible if there was any abnormal movement.
"I will follow you back to the palace later. You can help me find a place to live closer to you. I will be stationed in the palace during this period. If you have any errands, just come to me." Yang Xiu Sheng completed the breath adjustment and consumed Although I haven't recovered yet, my fatigue has almost been relieved. He found that the emperor was in a very bad situation now, so he returned to Fenghong Villa uneasy.
The emperor sat cross-legged on the couch, closed his eyes and rested his mind. There was no medicated bath in the car to relieve the pain on his body. He could only rely on a clear and calm breathing method passed down from his family. This is what he usually uses most. Means, effective, but very limited.
Hearing Yang Xiu Sheng's statement, the emperor felt warm in his heart and said with a smile, "Don't you like living in the palace, uncle?"
"I don't like the palace. It's not a good place. It reminds me of some past things. But your current situation is very difficult. Although I can't help you much, I can still protect you. Besides, those at home are The kids may lose their sense of control when they get into trouble, but with me here they can still have some sense."
"Are you afraid that I will die in the hands of your own children?"
Yang Xiu Sheng did not answer this sentence, but his attitude directly acquiesced.
The emperor shook his head and did not explain. However, Yang Xiusheng's entry into the palace can indeed increase the security of the palace by several levels, and can also scare some young people who are lucky.
"Then uncle will live in Fu'an Palace. I also live there on weekdays."
"Can."
...
The emperor rode back to the palace, and everyone in the city knew about the grand ceremony. But this news is not breaking news. What is really breaking news is the news that Xu Hong, the left minister of the Ministry of War, was imprisoned.
In the morning, many people saw that Xu's mansion was sealed and his family members were detained. In the afternoon, they saw Xu Hong himself being locked up and sent to the prison of the Jingxi Town Governor.
The Ministry of War has changed!
In the evening, Yang Yansi, the Minister of War, personally wrote an order notifying all the armies of the country and dynasty. Xu Hong was removed from all positions and titles. Wen Ming was removed from the post of Right Minister of the Ministry of War and was appointed as Left Minister of the Ministry of War. The vacancy of the right minister of the Ministry of War is temporarily filled by another person.
This order caused as much shock in the military as the previous news of Xu Hong's detention.
What's the meaning? How can Wen Mingju, who eats everything inside and out, sit in the position of Zuo Shilang? ! And who is the newly appointed right minister? Why haven't you heard of it before?
Wen Mingju is the emperor's man. This is known to the entire army. Xu Hong is dead. The reason is not yet clear. It makes sense that Wen Mingju takes over as the left minister, but who is the new right minister? ?
There are many people who are concerned about this issue. Not only the military, but also the civilian officials are extremely concerned about this sudden personnel change in the Ministry of War.
Ye Lansheng, the left prime minister, had just returned home. When he walked in, heads from various ministries came to discuss matters. He was the head of the civil service, and everyone wanted to hear his opinion.
As soon as the conversation started, the first person who was curious was the newly appointed right minister of the Ministry of War. No one here had ever heard of this person.
"Who else could it be? His Majesty's people."
"Then does that mean that except for Yang Yansi, the Ministry of War is actually directly controlled by His Majesty?"
Ye Lansheng nodded and said: "You can say that. Something happened to Xu Hong, and he is Yang Yansi's number one confidant. Do you think His Majesty can have no objection to Yang Yansi? Now that Wen Ming has ascended to the throne, and a new right minister has been appointed to assist him, his intention to isolate Yang Yansi is no longer It couldn’t be more obvious.”
"So the Ministry of War is completely doomed now?"
"It's over? Huh, that's not necessarily the case. The Ministry of War is not a front-line command department, it is just a central coordination department. Now the emperor has ignored Yang Yansi, but has not moved Yang Yansi's position. He just wants to save face for all the front troops and show that he has no intention of killing them all. And After all, the allegiance of the armies is not to Yang Yansi but to His Majesty the Emperor. When the new military headquarters issues orders to them, will they dare not obey them?"
"Master Ye, if that's the case, then as long as we convince His Majesty, can we put out the army in the south?"
Ye Lansheng frowned slightly. Nowadays, the civil officials are not concerned about whether Yang Yansi will be ignored, but about the attitude of the Ministry of War. Now if Yang Yansi loses his previous confidence, does that mean that the opportunity to change the situation in the south has fallen into the hands of civil servants?
"Not necessarily. His Majesty's ideas have often been bizarre over the years, and I can't figure it out. However, after the major changes in the Ministry of War, it is certain that the right to speak will be weakened a lot. It is true that we have one less obstacle."
