Vol 2 Chapter 857: The ministers attend the book desk!

  Chapter 857 The Minister Attends the Book Desk!

  In the Weiyang Palace, civil and military officials are arranged according to their shifts.

   Li Xin was the imperial master of the dynasty, and he was already a top civil servant. According to the position of the master, several chief ministers, including assistant ministers, had to stand behind him.

   But he not only has the position of Taifu, but he was also enthroned as a column country not long ago, so he is also a top military officer, and it is normal for him to stand on either side.

  Li Xin chose to stand in the column of military attachés on the right, and stood in the first row side by side with Great Governor Ji Lin.

   This "big Sima", standing beside Li Xin, only felt uncomfortable, and glanced at Li Xin from time to time.

   Xiao Zheng, the **** of the inner court, stood on the imperial steps and sang loudly: "Your Majesty is here—"

At this time, the emperor has not yet been in power, and all the important affairs of the government are sent to the Shangshutai for handling. In the past, the grand meeting once every ten days was to discuss important matters. At this time, it became a passing scene. The little emperor usually just came to sit on the throne, and then Some officials have played a few books that have nothing to do with the government, but about the ritual system, the big court meeting is over.

  Since the emperor Yuanzhao ascended the throne, Li Xin has never participated in a meeting of the imperial court or a meeting of the imperial court.

   At this time, the first-grade Taifu, wearing a jade crown and blue clothes, stood quietly in the main hall of Weiyang Palace, along with the civil and military officials, bowed down to the emperor Yuanzhao on the throne.

   Emperor Zhao of Yuan has been the emperor for several months. He is no longer afraid of such a big scene as the Great Court Meeting.

   "All the ministers, let's be flat."

  The civil and military officials slowly stood up from the ground.

  Then the emperor saw Li Xin who was standing at the front, and he asked, "Why is the teacher so free today, the court is coming?"

   "There are some things to say to His Majesty,"

  Li Xin bowed his head slightly and continued: "Your Majesty, there are no masters and apprentices in the court, only monarchs and ministers."

   Emperor Yuanzhao scratched his head, then smiled.

   "The Grand Master is called Your Majesty, and I am called the Grand Master, and I will discuss it separately, and it will not get in the way."

  Li Xin shook his head and said nothing.

  The emperor sat back on the throne, and as before, he said, "If you have something to do, you will play it up, and if you have nothing to do, you will retreat to the court."

   The great court meetings in recent months have been all over the place. Not only civil and military officials are used to it, but even the emperor is used to it. After all, the regime at this time is not in the Weiyang Palace, but in the Shangshutai.

  The first few Zaifu standing on the left glanced at each other first, and then Shang Shu's left servant She Shen Kuan walked out slowly, bowed his hands respectfully to Emperor Yuan Zhao, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

   Emperor Yuanzhao said with a smile: "If there is anything with Prime Minister Shen, just discuss it with a few Saisukes. I'm afraid I won't be able to handle anything that Shang Shutai can't handle."

Shen Kuan lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, Li Taifu holds several positions. He not only serves as the Minister of War, but also leads the right battalion of the forbidden army. It is true that Taifu Li has made outstanding achievements, but according to the rules of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Minister of Military Affairs is not allowed to lead the army, and the selection of the Ministry of War is not allowed. Military attaché, in charge of military rank, ordnance, military orders, such important positions, and then in charge of hundreds of thousands of Gyeonggi forbidden troops, is a big taboo..."

   "Master Li is loyal to the country, so naturally it will not be a disaster, but he has to be in charge of another department, and he has to lead the forbidden army, which is hard to avoid. What I mean by waiting is to remove one of the military positions of Master Li."

   This is to strike first.

It is impossible for Shang Shutai to not know about Li Xin's trip to the Grand Governor's Mansion two days ago, and even Ji Lin has communicated with them. Therefore, at this time, this minister of Shang Shutai will preemptively take the lead at the great court meeting. Open your mouth.

   As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the main hall of Weiyang Palace.

   All the officials quietly looked at the Marquis of Jing'an in the first column of the military attache, but it was Li Xin himself, with a calm expression, as if it had nothing to do with him.

   Emperor Yuan Zhao frowned.

He stood up from his chair and said to Shen Kuan, "Shen Xiang, the positions of teachers are all appointed by the late emperor himself, which is enough to show that the late emperor trusted the teacher and was not afraid of any taboos. Taking the position of teacher, wouldn't it be contrary to the holy will of the late emperor?"

   In fact, Shen Kuan said it well, the Ministry of War has the military status, ordnance, and even the personnel power of the military attache. During the war, the Ministry of War and the Grand Governor's Office together issue military orders. Such a position is unlikely to be in charge.

   No matter where the generals are, even if they have the title of Minister of War or Minister of War, they are only empty leaders. There is no one like Li Xin who has served as Minister of War and still leads troops.

  These positions on him are very irregular.

   Seeing the Son of Heaven talking like this, Shen Kuan turned his head to look at Li Xin, cupped his hands and said, "Taifu is the emperor's teacher. Your Majesty naturally wants to speak for the grandfather, but the grandfather doesn't want to break the rules of the court, right?"

   "Besides, the Ministry of War is in the capital, and the Imperial Army is outside the city, so the Taifu cannot be too busy by himself."

   Li Xin, who had been silent all this time, still tucked his hands into his sleeves, he turned his head and glanced at Shen Kuan lightly, hehe smiled.

   "Shen Xiang is right. The arrangement of the late emperor really broke the rules. In this case, after I go back today, I will write to the court and remove the post of Minister of War."

   Now is the first year of Yuanzhao, Li Xin started to serve as Minister of War in the third year of Taikang, and has been doing it for seven years.

   But in the past seven years, he has not paid much attention to the Ministry of War. In the past few years, the Ministry of War was taken care of by the old servant Xie Jun, and then Ye Lin was in charge of the Ministry of War. Whether he wanted the Minister of War or not was not a big problem.

   Anyway, sooner or later, it will have to be handed over to Ye Lin. It is better to hand it over now. He wrote to the Minister of Military Affairs to resign, and then recommended Ye Lin. With Ye Lin's qualifications, it is enough to hold the position of the Minister.

   Shen Kuan looked at Li Xin in amazement, and was stunned for a while.

In his opinion, Li Xin's age is the time when his desire for power and struggle is the heaviest, and everyone in the court knows that this Marquis of Jing'an is not a good-natured man. In his opinion, no matter what, Li Xin Xin will also fight for reasons and will not give up any of his identities.

   But Li Xin gave up so neatly.

  Shen Kuan reacted quickly and gave Li Xin a long sigh.

   "Master Fu is very righteous, and the old man admires it."

   Li Xin squinted his eyes and smiled: "Shen Xiang should wait a while and talk about this sentence."

   He got out of the line of military attachés on the right, took out a document from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and bowed slightly to Emperor Yuan Zhao.

   Mrs. Li's voice was clear.

   "Your Majesty, the ministers and counselors have colluded with the governor's office, and colluded with Qian Sheng, the minister of military affairs, in order to control the forbidden army, and plotted against the law!"

   As soon as he said these words, the Weiyang Palace hall was not silent, but an uproar.

  The Great Governor Ji Lin was immediately anxious, he almost walked out of the queue, and finally gritted his teeth and gave Li Xin a fierce look.

Two days ago, Li Xin had already warned him at the Grand Governor's Mansion, asking him to think carefully about how the imperial court would speak. At that time, Ji Lin thought that the young master would at most cooperate with himself and participate in the performance of the Shangshu. Taiwan, but I didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, he also involved the Grand Governor's Mansion!

   This is to offend four ministers at the same time!

   This big Sima cursed in his heart.

   In the face of the court ministers, according to the most basic logic, at this time, Li Xin should also fight one by one instead of offending four at the same time!

   Is Li Xin crazy? The Grand Governor's Mansion can obviously stand by him!

   The three assistant ministers on the other side also widened their eyes.

  Compared to everyone's shock, Lord Jing'an, the protagonist, still has a calm expression on his face.

  Everyone didn't understand why he did it.

   In fact, since Emperor Taikang collapsed, he didn't pay attention to the remaining people in Taikang Dynasty.

   Emperor Yuan Zhao, who was on the throne, stood up from his chair after being stunned for a long time. He looked at Li Xin with some uncertainty.

   "Teacher... what did you say?"
