Chapter 366

The officials entered the Hongwen hall and sat down according to their seats. There are nearly 100 people in a hall, and the seats are quite clear. They are both civil and military. They are ranked according to their official qualifications. At that time, it was the emperor's seat, but he didn't come today, so the imperial seat was empty, and there were three Pu seats in front of it, which were prepared for changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng.

It's needless to say that Chang sun Wuji's position is that today's prime minister, Li Shimin, says, "I get most of the credit from this person in the world"; Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, in Li Shimin's words, before Zhenguan, Fang Xuanling got the first credit; after Zhenguan, Wei Zheng got no credit.

These three people are the undisputed three big men in the court today.

The chief seat of the military is not Li Ji, but Yuchi Jingde. Li is one of the four meritorious officials of Jingnan Kaiyuan, followed by Li Ji, Duan Zhixuan and Cheng Zhijie. On the other side of the civil service, Chu suiliang, the chief of the cabinet, sat down. Record the words and deeds of the meeting, followed by the Prime Minister of the cabinet and the senior officials of the three provinces and six ministries.

Entering the hall of Hongwen hall, you can see that it is hierarchical and orderly. There is no suspense, Qin mubai sat at the end of the position. Chang sun Wuji and Wei Zheng sat down first, next to a PU sat empty, Fang Xuanling still did not appear.

"Gentlemen." Chang sun Wuji gave a loud call. When the scene quieted down, he said, "today I'll meet with the important officials of the imperial court to discuss one thing. It must have been known in the minds of the public that it was the issue of Lanzhou war and peace. According to the old rules, it is under the cabinet. They expressed their opinions in turn. Chu Sui Liang took notes in the hall to record his opinions. "

"Yes, situ." Chu Sui Liang answered and held up his pen.

"Next, let's invite Duke Xuancheng of the state of Zheng to express his opinions first." Changsun Wuji said.

"Situ, how can this meeting be held like this?" Wei Zheng's eyes were dazed and he kept tears, but his words were still sonorous and full of air, so he immediately refuted.

They were surprised for a while. Chang sun Wuji said calmly, "according to Xuan Chenggong's intention, how can this meeting be held?"

"This meeting has been held twice, and no result has been reached. It's nothing more than mutual prevarication and vague attitude. How can we be efficient in doing things like this? When we have a clear discussion, I'm afraid that Lanzhou has already become a river of blood! " Wei Zhengyang started, just like playing a drum, "in my humble opinion, I don't have to speak one by one from the cabinet prime minister. In this way, when the prime minister speaks, it is difficult for the officials below to put forward any opposite opinions; when the general speaks, how dare the subordinate generals say no? Such a meeting is nothing more than a perfunctory one due to the size of the official position. "

"So what?" Chang Sun Wu Ji spread his hands and said, "didn't all the previous cabinet meetings have been held like this?"

"Not this time." Wei Zheng waved his hand stubbornly and said in a loud voice, "since the cabinet has invited all the important officials and generals from all over the country, we can't let them shut up. I don't think it's necessary to repeat the importance of this matter. If you listen at the same time, it will be clear; if you listen at the same time, it will be dark; everyone will come to express their opinions. "

"That everybody says to draw different to quarrel into a regiment, can not become, can have no system, how again?" Chang sun Wuji is a bit impatient. This Wei Zheng is disgusting to him today. Originally, Chang sun Wuji wanted to use his power and influence to have a preconception. Few of the following officials dare to challenge him openly. He expected the worst result, that is, Wei Zheng would urge him to fight, so he asked him to say it first, and then refuted him with righteous words, which was a late strike.

Did not think, this Wei Zheng completely does not play according to the routine, changsun Wuji is not angry, and bad attack.

Qin mubai sat at the bottom of the table and listened to the two men's argument. He was very happy and thought: there are two prime minister and assistant minister. Wei Zheng, a grumpy old man, has always been the emperor's face. How can you look down on Chang Sun Wu Ji? Now it's good. It seems that he and Chang sun Wuji have the same opinion. He is the opponent of Chang sun Wuji, and he is my ally OK, here's the chance!

Qin mubai stood up, bowed his hand to the stage and said, "you two have a proposal to reconcile their differences."

Chang sun Wuji and Wei Zheng took a look at Qin mubai. Wei Zheng looked round and round and asked, "who came out to talk?"

"Don't drive in Lanzhou, Qin mubai."

"Oh, Qin mubai, you say." Without waiting for Chang sun Wuji to speak, Wei Zheng motioned Qin mubai to speak as soon as he raised his hand.

Changsun Wuji was so itchy that he wanted to throw Wei Zheng's excrement stirring stick out.

"Xie Xuancheng." Qin Mu Bai Gong started and said, "since we want everyone to express their opinions, we'd better ask all the officials and generals present to vote anonymously."

"Anonymous voting, how to vote?" Many asked together.

"It's easy." Qin mubai said with a smile, "if you agree to fight in Lanzhou, draw a circle; if you don't agree, draw a fork. You don't have to sign. You can't make a single pen. So it is. Only in this way can everyone express their true thoughts. This is called Democratic vote

"Nonsense!" Changsun Wuji immediately became angry and said, "so, what's the use of the prime minister?"

"What's the hurry, situ?" Wei Zheng's face turned, and he glanced at Chang sun Wuji discontentedly. He said, "according to what you say, the world's affairs are all handled by your eldest son Wuji alone. What do you pretend to call us to do? I think Qin mubai's proposal is very good. Even if it is not regarded as the final public opinion, it at least represents the aspiration of the people. It can be used as an important reference. ""Wei Zheng, what are you talking about?" Chang sun Wuji said angrily, "as you say, someone is going to dominate the court platform?" You can think of a democratic vote! How can such an important state affair be used To vote in a circle

"That's what you want. What should we do? " Wei Zheng said coldly, "why don't you invite your majesty out to decide? Or, please say something to the king of Jin? "

"Presumptuous! You know that the emperor is seriously ill and the king of Jin is still young. How can you be so tricky and disrespectful? " Chang sun Wuji was a little angry.

"Then it's over!" Wei Zheng spread his hands. He said, "since your majesty doesn't come out to make up his mind, there is no crown prince and crown prince Chang sun Wuji. You are just assisting the king of Jin to supervise the state. You are not the king of Jin! We are not dead yet. You can't has the final say in a big thing. "

"Wei Zheng You Chang sun Wuji almost choked to death with a mouthful of hot water. He pointed to Wei Zheng, speechless, and his face turned red.

A lot of people are holding a smile. This Wei Zheng has always been like this. Don't mention it's with Chang Sun Wu Ji. It's the emperor sitting in front of him. He also dares to point and scold, which is not ambiguous at all.

It's no shame to eat turtle in front of Wei Zheng. It's just that Chang sun Wuji can't bear this tone any more, and it's going to break out soon. Li daozong came out and said, "well, situ and Shizhong, you two Xianggong will stop arguing. It's just a vote. Just look at the wishes in everyone's heart, and it doesn't count when you vote. It's just a reference. There's no need to argue so much. In my opinion, why not vote? Situ, are you afraid of voting

"Of course not." Li daozong said this. But he hit Chang sun Wuji's soft spot. He took a breath and nodded, "OK, then Anonymous voting, voting significance! Chu suiliang is responsible for the notarization of the count. "

"Good."

The petty officials immediately prepared the pen and ink and other things to serve them. Each of them drew a circle and fork on a small piece of paper, folded it up and handed it to Chu suiliang. Then, they returned to their seats and looked at Chu suiliang's statistics with bated breath.

"Yes, one vote."

"Yes, three votes..."

"Against Here are six tickets! "

……

With Chu suiliang's statistical process. The hearts of all the people were at sixes and sevens. Qin mubai also felt that he had no bottom in his heart. In fact, he did not have the slightest assurance that he could win by such means. However, in this way, the influence and power of Chang sun Wuji can be weakened. To weaken one's opponent is to increase one's self. Such a thing can be done well.

The vote count is coming to an end. To Qin mubai's surprise, the affirmative vote and the negative vote went hand in hand. Seeing Chu suiliang's tickets in his hand, the number of tickets on both sides was 46 to 45.

The vote against going to war is only one vote ahead.

Changsun Wuji's face became a little ugly. In the past two meetings. Only a few people, such as Li Ji, advocated sending troops to fight against him. He did not expect that many people on the surface of his eldest grandson Wuji respected, times to the only horse head is forward-looking, the heart actually has another idea.

It's like hitting Chang sun Wuji in the face!

"Three tickets left Two votes for it. Forty seven to forty-six, one vote ahead. This last ticket It's a bit interesting. It's against Lanzhou sending troops, and it's signed. " Chu suiliang took a look at Wei Zheng. "Xuancheng office voted against the use of troops in Lanzhou. In this way, 47 even, the two sides hold each other

Everyone was surprised. Chang sun Wuji was even more surprised to see Wei Zheng. Unexpectedly, the bad old man had been making trouble for a long time, and he had the same opinion as himself.

"What shall I do?" Wei Zheng said, "Wei is right about things and not about people. I'm just against the use of troops in Lanzhou. What's the matter?"

Qin mubai was a little sad and funny now. He was annoyed and funny. Originally, he thought that Wei Zheng would be an ally of his own, but he and Chang sun Wuji were on the same side.

This is beyond everyone's expectation!

Now it's a good thing. The two sides have a draw and a clear stalemate. However, Qin mubai was very satisfied with the "draw" situation. At least. Now Chang sun Wuji has no excuse to say that Lanzhou will not fight.

"Xuancheng, now you can talk about it, why not let Lanzhou send troops?" Chang sun Wuji took a deep breath and threw the hot mountain Yu to Wei Zheng to offend others. Anyway, this bad old man. I'm not afraid to offend people.

Wei Zheng did not give up, and said, "then I'll give you my opinion. At the beginning of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty managed the school by collecting soldiers, cultivating culture and governing the people's livelihood, thus making the world peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment. In the past two years, there have been many wars. The National Treasury is empty, and the army and the people are suffering. The struggle with Tubo is nothing more than taking tuconghun as the core. Now, since Tuyuhun belongs to Datang, how can we compete with it? Before that, Tubo sent envoys to Tang Dynasty to ask for marriage and peace. Only because they were slighted, did they feel resentment and go away... "

"Wait!" Li daozong suddenly interrupted Wei Zheng and said, "Mr. Wei, what does it mean to be 'slighted'? Do you mean that the officials of Honglu temple did not treat him well, or that my daughter of Li daozong is not worthy of the praise of his Zanpu abandoned sectwww.novelhall.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
