Chapter 298 Competing for the position of chief assistant
Chapter 298: Fighting for the position of chief assistant
When he opened the door, he saw Wei Zelong standing outside anxiously, like an ant on a hot pot.
"Xiaolong, what's the matter?"
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Big... big deal!"
Wei Zelong rushed into the room in a hurry.
He took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and then said, "Brother Chen, my father took you to see Mr. Chief Assistant earlier. Mr. Chief Assistant probably didn't say anything to you, right?"
"No."
Ye Chen shook his head. He had thought about recruiting him, and even offered to give up his position.
But the purpose of doing this is just to let Xiao Yuan'er take action and heal his sword wound.
As for his promise, Ye Chen didn't believe even a word of it.
"He didn't say that he wanted to win over you or recruit you?"
Wei Zelong looked serious and serious.
"I said it, but I didn't agree."
Ye Chen was a little strange, why did Wei Zelong suddenly care about this?
With his simple mind, he would be thankful to God if he could practice the formation well. How could he have the time to worry about other things?
"That's good."
Wei Zelong breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with lingering fear, "Just half an hour ago, the chief assistant rebelled, and took a hundred of his close men to defect to the land of three mountains and five ridges. I don't know what benefits were promised to him.
He is actually willing to give up the status and glory that is worth hundreds of millions to one person..."
"With his status and strength, what can make his heart move?"
Ye Chen smiled indifferently and said, "It's nothing more than life span!"
"Life span? What Brother Chen means is that the life span of the Chief Assistant is about to expire?"
Wei Zelong's face was full of curiosity. He really had never understood these matters in the court in detail.
"Soon."
Ye Chen said, "The reason why he begged me was because he wanted Xiao Yuan'er to take action and heal his sword wound. He has always had a sword wound in his body, and the sword energy inside him is very terrifying."
"Sword wound? Is it worse than my father's?"
When Wei Zelong heard this, he was shocked.
At the beginning, Prime Minister Wei also traveled around in order to cure the hidden illness in his body.
I tried all kinds of methods, but in the end I still couldn't cure the underlying disease.
If Ye Chen hadn't made a deal with him by taking out the emperor's blood essence and blood, I'm afraid that Prime Minister Wei would still be troubled by hidden illnesses today.
"It's serious. If I can't get effective treatment, I'm afraid I will only have ten years left to live."
Ye Chen smiled, "So I'm not surprised at all. There must be a way to heal sword wounds in this land of three mountains and five ridges, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to defect at this juncture."
Now, Ye Chen has taken advantage of the supreme power and single-handedly defeated the temptations of the three mountains and five ridges.
Occupy the top spot on the Hidden Dragon Ranking and tell the world.
Even Kong Xiang died in his hands.
The fighting spirit of the people in the two places has been ebbing and flowing, and there is already a big gap.
Today, the Xiaoyue Dynasty is making great progress and is extremely confident.
As for the land of three mountains and five ridges, they fell into deep silence after learning the truth.
So far, there is still no response.
"The defection of Lord Chief Assistant seems to have nothing to do with you and me, right?"
Ye Chen's eyes fell on Wei Zelong, "Why are you so excited?"
"Yes, why not?"
Speaking of the important point, Wei Ze took a deep breath and said, "After the position of chief assistant is vacated, one of my father and the left prime minister will be chosen to take his place to stabilize the morale of the army. Now my father is working with a group of people to take his place."
Officials' discussions should be about how to compete for the position of chief minister."
"I almost forgot about this."
Ye Chen slapped his head and then stood up, "Xiaolong, take me to find Uncle Wei."
From beginning to end, Prime Minister Wei's purpose was very clear, which was to ascend to the position of chief minister.
You may say that he is ambitious, but that's all he has.
As for overthrowing the dynasty and ascending the throne as emperor himself, Prime Minister Wei had never thought about it.
As for the left prime minister, it's different.
He has a deep mind and rarely reveals his heart to others. Even his mentor, the Chief Assistant, cannot see through his thoughts.
But both of them are equally strong in terms of strategy and combat power, and both have considerable influence in the court.
The meeting hall was filled with excitement.
The princes, nobles, generals and ministers all sat down and praised me.
"Congratulations to Prime Minister Wei, congratulations to Prime Minister Wei. By defecting as Chief Assistant now, he is taking the initiative to give up his position to you."
"Yes, if you really think about it, this is definitely a great opportunity."
"I am waiting here to congratulate Prime Minister Wei in advance on his assumption of the position of chief minister."
Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
He is truly worthy of being a member of the court, flattering everyone so loudly.
Fortunately, Prime Minister Wei was relatively calm and considered the matter more comprehensively, so he was not moved by this.
If it were someone else here, listening to them blow a few words, they might just drift away.
"Ye Chen?"
When Wei Xiangcai looked up, he saw Ye Chen standing in front of the door. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, "I was just going to find you!"
"Uncle Wei, I've heard everything."
Ye Chen did not show up and directly found a seat to sit down.
The dignitaries in the palace all smiled when they saw Ye Chen.
Nonsense, who doesn't know now that Ye Chen has unlimited potential?
Crossing the realm to kill Kong Xiang, his talent is transcendent, and he is firmly at the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
Beizhou is destined to be his stage in the future!
Being friends with such a talented person is a good thing for yourself and your family.
"Mr. Ye, my daughter has admired you for a long time. If you have the opportunity, you can get closer to me."
A middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing came up to me with a smile on his face.
Everyone was shocked. Everyone was just flattering her. It would be better for you to give your daughter away as soon as you come up.
If I want to talk about being fierce, you are the one who is fierce!
This middle-aged man is the father of Xu Jingyao, Xu Ran and Xu Jiaqi, the heads of the Xu family.
"This matter still depends on fate."
Ye Chen's face turned red, he was very moved, and then he rejected Xu Jingyao.
"Uncle Wei."
Ye Chen said seriously, "When will the next court meeting be?"
"Just tomorrow."
"I will go to court with you tomorrow."
Ye Chen looked serious.
It is foreseeable that the left prime minister will definitely sacrifice everything to compete for the position of chief assistant.
Naturally, you can't give it up to him.
"Ye Chen, you have helped me enough, I don't want to trouble you anymore because of this..."
Prime Minister Wei felt a little guilty. He never liked to owe favors. The last time Ye Chen gave him the essence and blood of his imperial veins, he had taken a big advantage, so later he took the initiative to help Ye Chen gain a foothold in the Xiaoyue Dynasty and protect him.
But with Ye Chen's advice, three people from Benliu Academy were promoted to sword cultivators.
In the battle, all the geniuses of the Kendo Academy were wiped out.
After that, he was the best in the competition for the Qianlong List.
No matter which one happened, it was a miracle and brought him great prestige.
Nowadays, fighting for the position of chief assistant is a private matter.
If you still want Ye Chen's gang, it would be unreasonable both emotionally and rationally.
"Xiaolong and I are friends, and Uncle Wei, you take good care of me. This small favor is nothing to worry about."
