Chapter Seven North-South confrontation mediocrity

The farce in Chengdu was just discussed by everyone. After Meng Yan returned to Chengdu, he followed Lu Qingfeng back to Yueqing Palace with a smile. He didn't know what he was criticized for, but he looked unhappy when he came out.

Someone asked Huo Youji for the truth. Huo Youji pretended to be mysterious and refused to tell the truth. However, after he was so mysterious, the title of King Yong's henpeck instantly resounded throughout the Central Plains. Xiao Yu, who was far away in Jinling, met with him after the court meeting.

All the ministers laughed and talked about this matter.

However, these are all rumors, and no one knows the real situation. However, Meng Yan issued an order the next day after talking to Gu Qingfeng, removing Gu Xifeng from the position of acting Shangshu Ling, and building a new pivot platform with left and right servants as

Zun, in charge of important matters; then set up the West Platform, with the left and right ministers as the Zun, in charge of reviewing edicts and having

For the power of sealing and refuting, three platforms stand side by side, with the Shangshu Taiwan as the respected one, and there is no Shangshu Order for the time being. Lu Chongzong is the left servant of the Shutai, Jin Qian is the right servant of the Shutai, Nie Huan, the left servant of the Xitai, also leads the army to discuss the Secretary, and the Xitai

Among the right servants, Zhuo Baiqing also served as the Minister of Shenxing, but in private everyone addressed Santai as "Xiang".

As soon as this move came out, the division of civil and military administration in Xifu became more clear, and the separation of powers was formally formed into five divisions. The palace came first, and the orders came out of the palace; Wen had three platforms as the sky, four middle halls as the ground, and six divisions as auxiliary; Wu Yu was the chief governor, and

The three generals' mansions were the wings, and then the Yuezhou general's mansion and the Changsha general's mansion were added, making a total of nine generals' mansions. With the supervision of the People's Intelligence Agency and the secret investigation of the Mingjian Division, a complete system was established.

"Qi Lang, what you do will arouse everyone's imagination. There are so many phases, which are a bit like the existence of the south pavilion of the mausoleum." Gu Qingfeng said while lying on his side.

"You're pregnant, so don't worry. I've tired you out in the past few years. You have the energy to deal with these things, but I can't. I'll set up more phases to keep them busy. But when it comes to Nange, I have some ideas.

, When the future is mature, I will set up a cabinet and stuff a dozen people with it, so that they can be busy fighting and save me trouble." Meng Yan said while blowing on the hot chicken soup.

"You, as a prince, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to tease your subordinates like this. Su Qing wrote a letter saying that Dong Que has been in panic all day long since he arrived in Western Sichuan. Your series of operations after you returned to Chengdu drove him crazy.

"

As soon as Lu Ping's name appeared, Meng Yan's expression changed, and he said coldly: "This guy is a general with outstanding abilities, but he doesn't know how to behave and has messy thoughts all day long. I originally wanted Jin Qian to

Entering the pivot platform, it seems that the weather is not yet high."

Gu Qingfeng stood up, gave a big salute, and then said seriously: "Your Majesty, I think I can no longer suppress Jin Shuai. He was almost wiped out by the childhood illness in the old Yeling army. If this continues in the long run, something will happen."

Seeing Gu Qingfeng bowing to him with a big bow, Meng Yan hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said: "Qingfeng, Jin Qian has been messing around all day long and has become the most disliked person in Xifu. The Medical Officer's Office came to report that his body is close to oil.

Even though the lamp has died, I have summoned his only son, Jin Fu, into the Baize Guard. I do this to leave him with the last bit of dignity."

Only then did Gu Qingfeng realize that Meng Yan had already made arrangements, so he stopped talking and said instead: "Speaking of the Medical Officer's Office, it's time to pay attention to your health. Ye Shuai's body has long been damaged by wine.

, he has never married until now, Qingshuai’s health has been getting worse since he was assassinated, and the two of them will be in their early forties.”

Meng Yan sighed and said with a sad expression: "Yes! I can't help them. Mr. Zhuo is not yet fifty years old and already has a head full of white hair. I saw Nie Huan two days ago. He is in his thirties."

People who are 6 years old are so skinny."

"Your Highness, it's time to select a group of people to come in." Gu Qingfeng reminded.

"Well, you have time to call your sister-in-law into the palace in the next few days and talk to her for a while. My uncle still has to take a step forward and give the young man some opportunities."

"Didn't you let your uncle take charge of the chancellery?" Gu Qingfeng asked doubtfully.

Meng Yan shook his head, "Brother is unwilling to live or die, and his health is not very good. I have an idea, what do you think?"

Gu Qingfeng suddenly stroked his belly and said softly: "I will listen to what you say. You should discuss the details with your ministers."

"I plan to make the eldest brother and Ye Bohuai the three princes. The eldest brother will be the Taishi, Ye Bohuai will be the Taiwei, my uncle will be in charge of the Shangshutai, Xue Zhen will be the central servant and the left servant, Deng Gang will be promoted to the right servant, and the governor will let Chen Zhiqing come back to take over.

.”

"Three of the four main halls are vacant. There are also six ministers, the counselor of the governor's office, and the three commanders' offices. They are all vacancies. Can they be filled in one time?" Meng Yan's move

It was too bold. Fortunately, the civil servants said that there was a gap in the generals. Although the generals headed by Xuan Song were good, they were not qualified and capable enough to run the general's palace.

"I'm just chatting with you, and I'm not about to make a decision right now. Your worries are also my worries. The talents selected by the two houses have been enriched in local experience in the past few years. I really can't find so many suitable ones at one time.

Man, these guys came out with me in the early years, I really can’t bear to overwork them." Meng Yan said helplessly while sighing.

"Are you planning to activate Lu Ping?" Only then did Gu Qingfeng understand the key.

"Yes and no, I haven't thought about it. If Qingshuai leaves office, who will be in charge of Jiangxia? Shi Ying can't do it. Yu Qingwu is his shadow. Yu Laohu has grown very fast in these years. Now I feel most relieved. After thinking about it, I can only

Lu Ping can take on the important responsibilities of Jiangxia."

Gu Qingfeng frowned, "My lord, be careful. Once someone like Lu Ping is given a chance, he can rebel against you!"

"That's what I'm talking about. So I'm almost worried to death these days. There is also the handsome manor in Langzhong. Can Xifeng be okay? It stands to reason that you know him best." Meng Yan raised a new question again.

Gu Qingfeng shook his head firmly and said: "My eldest brother is not good enough. He has reached the limit of his ability to be in charge of the general. To be in charge of the commander's mansion is to disregard human life."

"Well, it's not as scary as you said. My uncle's ability to control the overall situation is a bit poor. I just need to give him a good counselor. Moreover, we have an appointment with Xijing and we will not use large-scale troops in the next few years."

Gu Qingfeng still refused: "Even if you let brother Yanfeng take charge of the commander's mansion, you will be much better than him."

Meng Yan lay down on the bed with a sigh, and Gu Qingfeng also held his chin in worry. The two of them discussed it, but they couldn't think of a solution, and there was a lot of trouble.

When King Yong and Princess Yong were worried, Lu Ping's mentality almost collapsed. The more Jing Yi and Dong Que respected him, the more afraid he became. Jin Shuai's letter made him even more uneasy. Jin Fu was called to serve as the captain of Bai Zewei.

Shuai didn't say anything, which meant that Jin Shuai had surrendered to the prince. What should he do? Who in the whole Xifu didn't know that he was Jin Qian's pawn.

"General Lu?" Jing Yi's voice came from outside the tent.

Lu Ping's face suddenly turned pale, feeling that the end was approaching, so he bravely went out and saw Jing Yi and Dong Que coming.

"General Lu, are you feeling unwell?" Dong Que asked carefully.

"Well, there are some. Staying on the grassland for a long time is not as comfortable as at home." Lu Ping said perfunctorily.

Jing Yi and Dong Que looked at him a little strangely. Lu Ping was a strong man in the Xifu, and his physical fitness was comparable to that of Hu Shuai. How could he be so sick that his face turned pale.

Seeing that the two people looked wrong and their eyes were even weirder, Lu Ping almost went crazy, his knees were weak, and he asked timidly: "Two generals, are there orders from Chengdu?"

"Yes, it's an order from the Chengdu Palace. General Dong and I came over as soon as we received it." Jing Yi still felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.

Lu Ping closed his eyes, thinking that what was supposed to come would come anyway, and said in frustration: "Should he be beheaded on the spot or taken to Chengdu for trial?"

Jing Yi and Dong Que looked at each other and didn't understand what was going on. It was just an order urging them to find Zhuge Xingchen. What the hell was beheading and escorting him away.

"Ahem, cough, cough, the palace ordered us to find Zhuge Xingchen for a decisive battle as soon as possible to solve the problem in western Sichuan. What happened to General Lu?" Dong Que, as a subordinate, has never lacked the ability to alleviate embarrassment. As for what Shangguan was thinking, he couldn't guess.

But Jing Yi figured out what Lu Ping meant. He had heard about the rectification of Yeling. Although Jin Qian's power in Yeling was not completely uprooted, it was almost wiped out. Lu Ping had always supported Jin Qian.

, he probably thought that the prince was going to arrest him and question him.

Hearing Dong Que's words, Lu Ping opened his eyes suddenly, stood up suddenly, and said in surprise: "What?!" Then he realized that he had lost his composure, coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment, and then said: "Looking for Zhuge Xingchen's decisive battle?"

"Yes, that's what the royal decree said." Dong Que was so startled by Lu Ping's behavior that he lost his mind and answered mechanically.

"General Lu, Mingjian Si Qu Hao personally came to direct the military affairs. The war order from the Governor's Office wants us to divide our troops into three groups to search for traces of Zhuge Xingchen on the grassland." Jing Yi quickly became calm.

Speaking of military affairs, Lu Ping changed his wild thoughts and quickly walked to the desk to open the topographic map of western Sichuan and study it. After two cups of tea, he said: "General Jing, I am not questioning the royal decree and the battle of the governor's palace.

Order, in the vast grasslands of western Sichuan, the Shiqu tribe and the Daqu tribe are not weak in combat strength. Together, our three armies can only draw a tie with them. If we divide our forces, we may not be able to do it."

"The news from Inspector Qu is that traces of Zhuge Xingchen were found in the Shiqu Department. How about we bypass the Daqu Department and go to the Dege Department?" Jing Yi suggested.

Lu Ping shook his head and said: "General, General Hu, the soldiers of the Dege Department were already suffering from headaches when they marched westward, and their combat power reached the limit. At the same time, there was insufficient food and grass. It was not conducive to our army to station troops in the Dege Department. Zhuge Xingchen was hiding in the Dege Department.

Shiqubu is also because of this."

"General Lu, I am here to mobilize a lot of Zhaonan soldiers. They are cold-resistant and accustomed to the plateau. Can they be able to fight?" Jing Yi did not want to question the order.

Lu Ping frowned and thought for a moment and said, "No, the General's Zhaonan soldiers are our last bargaining chip. Once we enter the plateau, we can only rely on the General's eight thousand soldiers."

"General Yi Lu, what do you mean, we have to return without success this time?" Jing Yi was a little unhappy. I respect you enough, but after all, I am the general.

Lu Ping heard the unkindness in Jing Yi's words and was about to get angry when the peacemaker Dong Que immediately stood up and said quickly: "Since the two generals have differences, this is a good thing. The prince once said that only when there is a dispute will one have an idea."

, isn’t it?”

"Humph, since General Lu is unwilling to go north, I will lead my own troops to fight Zhuge Xingchen, and General Dong will postpone it." Jing Yi said forcefully.

"The general has made up his mind, and the general dare not disobey him. The general still insists not to go to the Dege tribe. I will take my own troops to the Daqu tribe." Lu Ping did not give in.

The two men were at war with each other, and Dong Que could no longer hold back. The curtain of the tent was opened, and it was Mingjian Si Qu Hao who came. Seeing such a scene, he immediately knew what was going on.

In order to avoid escalating the situation, he quickly said: "Three generals, Zhuge Xingchen went to Dafeichuan."

"What?!" Lu Ping and Jing Yi exclaimed at the same time.

This Zhuge Xingchen is really getting more and more weird.
