Li Zheng looked at Zhao Fengshou with interest: "Who does Zhao Aiqing want to recommend as the envoy?"
Zhao Fengshou looked at Mr. Liu who had his head down and smiled softly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I recommend Mr. Liu Mingzhi, the newly promoted member of the Tongyuan County Jue Hu Department, Mr. Liu. Mobile version https:"
Li Zheng narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect that Zhao Fengshou had the same idea as his. He had just had the idea of sending Young Master Liu as an envoy. In Li Zheng's opinion, Young Master Liu was an all-rounder with a lot of clever ideas.
The most important thing is that this guy is not a stickler for rules and acts more tactfully than these ministers who stick to rules.
"Your Majesty, Qi Run, a doctor in the household department, thinks this matter is inappropriate."
It was the 'first time' for Li Zheng to meet Qi Run. After all, Qi Run only attended the first court meeting after he was promoted.
"Oh? What does Qi Aiqing think is wrong?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Mr. Liu has only been an official for less than a month. His actions are not considered carefully and still need to be adjusted. In addition, he is young and energetic, which may backfire. He is definitely not the best candidate for the mission."
"One of you says that Liu Aiqing is suitable to be sent as an envoy, and the other says that Liu Aiqing is not suitable to be sent as an envoy. I am very embarrassed."
"Your Majesty, my recommendation of Master Liu is by no means a hothead. Your Majesty does not know something. Although Master Liu has been an official for a short time, when he was in the south of the Yangtze River, he single-handedly thwarted the conspiracy of the Jin Dynasty mission to start an undeclared war. Liu
Your Majesty's mission to the Kingdom of Jin will, after all, put pressure on the ministers of the Kingdom of Jin. Secondly, Your Majesty Liu has had a close friendship with Huyanyu, the prince of the Huyan tribe of the Turks. With this relationship, you can protect your wealth in the Turks."
"I second the proposal."
"I also second the proposal."
"What Mr. Zhao said is true. Mr. Liu is definitely the best choice for the envoy."
"You little bastard, please speak!"
Qi Run's face was a little anxious, and she whispered a message to Young Master Liu who was nodding his head not far away.
Those officials all agreed to Zhao Fengshou's suggestion, thinking that the matter was not of their own concern, and that anyone who sent an envoy to the Turks would second their opinions as long as they did not send envoys to the Turks themselves.
But Qi Run can't do it. This is his son-in-law. Qi Run is not worried about the affairs of the Jin Kingdom. He is worried that the Turks will not abide by the rules. In that case, his daughter will be a widow.
His grandson doesn't even know what his father looks like. Even if the chance is only half, Qi Run can't watch his son-in-law take risks.
Song Yu, who was in the second row, also looked worried. He looked at Du Chenghao, the Minister of Civil Affairs. Zhao Fengshou, the Minister of Civil Affairs, recommended Young Master Liu as the envoy. Could it be that he was instructed by Du Chenghao.
You must know that Young Master Liu was lying in the Ministry of Civil Affairs at the beginning, serving some areas of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the two ministers. The possibility that Du Chenghao instigated Zhao Fengshou to send Young Master Liu to die cannot be ruled out.
"Bastard, you should say something!"
Qi Run's face became anxious.
However, Young Master Liu still lowered his head and remained motionless. There was a slight bubble under his nose that sometimes became larger and smaller as Young Master Liu breathed.
Well, this guy actually fell asleep while sitting down.
Seeing that 70% of the officials below the rank agreed with Mr. Liu's mission to the Kingdom of Jin to discuss mutual trade with the Turks, Li Zheng nodded lightly: "Liu Aiqing is willing to go as an envoy!"
"Liu Aiqing!"
"Liu Aiqing!"
Li Zheng's voice became louder every time.
Young Master Liu finally woke up with a jolt, and looked at a group of officials who were staring at him in confusion. What was the situation? Why are they staring at this young master?
"Liu Aiqing!"
"As a humble minister, I am willing to sacrifice my life and blood for Your Majesty. I will go up to the sword and go under the sea of fire without any hesitation. As long as Your Majesty has a purpose, I am willing to do whatever it takes, even to the death."
Hearing the emperor's voice, Mr. Liu woke up completely and hurriedly got out of the queue. Don't worry about anything else. First, please flatter him and show your loyalty.
Li Zheng looked at Young Master Liu in astonishment, and his face couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. These words made me quite embarrassed.
A group of civil and military ministers also looked at Young Master Liu strangely, wondering if this man's face was made of the city wall? Such a sycophantic formation had never happened since the Xuande Dynasty.
How could this guy lick his face and say such straightforward words?
After being slightly embarrassed, Li Zheng smiled and nodded: "Since Liu Aiqing is also willing, that's great. Liu Aiqing will serve as the official envoy, and he will temporarily assume the position of chief of Honglu Temple. After the mission is completed, the official position will be restored."
Young Master Liu was a little confused. What was the emperor talking about? What extraordinary things did he miss after sleeping?
"Liu Aiqing, please step aside for now."
"I obey the decree."
Young Master Liu obediently sat back in his seat, still thinking about what happened, when he saw something was wrong with his father-in-law Qi Run's face.
"The chief envoy is Liu Aiqing. Is that Aiqing willing to serve as the deputy envoy?"
General Li Zheng looked at the ranks of military generals and said that deputy envoys were actually just bodyguards. Civil servants served as envoys and military attachés served as deputy envoys and were responsible for protection.
The generals looked at each other and no one came forward. Except for Wan Buhai, there was no official familiar to Young Master Liu among the generals.
Song Yu thought for a long time and stood up: "My minister, Song Yu, recommends someone to be the deputy envoy."
"Song Aiqing, please speak."
"I recommend Song Qing, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards, to be the deputy envoy."
Li Zheng was slightly stunned, and immediately understood Song Yu's thoughts and nodded gently: "Xuan Yu's former bodyguard commander Song Qing has an audience."
Song Qing was on duty in the palace. Hearing the eunuch's words, he rushed to the main hall without hesitation: "Commander Song Qing, the imperial guard, is here to see your majesty."
"Plain body."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"I want to expand trade routes, encourage private commerce to go north, sign a mutual market contract with the Turkic Jin Kingdom, jointly open up a place to exchange goods, and enrich the people's family property. Now Liu Aiqing, a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs, is willing to be the official envoy to the Jin Kingdom and the Turks.
The envoy to the chief military officer, Song Aiqing, the Minister of War, recommends you as the deputy envoy to the chief military officer to send envoys to the Jin Kingdom and the Turks."
"I obey the decree."
"Okay, both of you, my beloved ministers, are people who understand etiquette and care about the country and the people. I am very relieved and Zhou Fei has made a decree."
"According to the decree."
"Since I ascended the throne, I have been diligent in government affairs and dare not slack off."
"Your Majesty, I have something to say!"
Li Zheng looked at Mr. Liu in confusion, and saw that his expression was solemn and a little strange. He was fine just now, why did he look like this?
"Liu Aiqing, what do you have to say? You have worked hard to serve me as an envoy to the Turks of the Jin Kingdom. You have done a great job. As long as your request is not excessive, I can satisfy you."
"Your Majesty, when did I agree to be sent as an envoy to the Kingdom of Jin?"
Young Master Liu's face turned crimson, his body was trembling a little, and he looked at the emperor pitifully.
If my family knows about their affairs and goes to the Kingdom of Jin as an envoy, will Na Na Na Na be able to come back?
He looked at his hands gently. The trouble caused by these hands, the shocking arrest in the past, wouldn't he have to lie down when he returned from his mission to the Kingdom of Jin?
No, it is not impossible that there may not even be any bones left. The accusation of blasphemy against the Queen of the Kingdom of Jin made Young Master Liu shudder. He did not dare to think about it anymore. It was too scary.
Li Zheng looked stern: "Liu Aiqing, you have no words for me to say, and I have no words for you to say before you. I just asked you if you would be willing to serve me as an envoy to the Jin Kingdom and the Turks. You said that you were willing to shed your blood for me even to the death, and the whole court was full of words." Both civil and military officials can testify that if you go back on your word, it will be the crime of deceiving the emperor. The crime of deceiving the emperor is the crime of conspiring against the Yi tribe."
"Your Majesty, my lord"
Mr. Liu's face was tangled, and his hands had nowhere to rest. My name is Liu Mingzhi. I'm very panicked now because I'm facing a choice between life and death. Go or die, don't go or die. I can't choose, okay? .
Do you want to tell me what happened when you fell asleep just now?
"Your Majesty, do you have to go?"
"Zhou Fei!"
The Chief Steward gently raised the imperial edict with more than a dozen words written on it and gestured to Young Master Liu.
As a king, you cannot change your orders overnight. If things are already like this, they have to go.
The key point is that the Kingdom of Jin has ten thousand suns, ten thousand suns, and this young master did evil things at the beginning.
