Chapter eight hundred and eighty second weapon of the country
Li Luo sighed secretly, Yang Wanli was very loyal and brave, and he was extremely upright, but as Yin Mohuai said, he was really bad at responding to the enemy. When the inspection department was established that day, Li Luo would let Zhang Rongzheng stand aside.
Help each other. If Yang Wanli was half as cunning as Zhang Rongzheng, he would probably not be in danger of death today.
"Your Majesty, the Privy Council is just a temporary measure for Uncle Zong. Although Uncle Zong can accomplish some things, he is too upright and hurts others and himself.
When it comes to power, it determines life and death and determines victory or defeat. Rights come first, and these princes know better than me. Being too strong is not enough. If Zongbo's accident happens, it is the foundation of the Inspection Department that will be disrupted."
"Brother Yin, do you mean to give up Master Yang? I'm afraid it's a little late now."
"It's indeed too late. Rather than saying they are plotting against Uncle Zong, it's better to say they are spying on the Privy Council.
The Privy Council is a powerful weapon for the country, and it is also a murderous weapon. As long as you control the Privy Council, you will control half of the eyes and ears of Da Gan. Who can not be jealous of this kind of power? Perhaps it is more urgent than containing the Inspection Department."
"If it were Brother Yin, what would you do now?"
Yin Mohuai rubbed his shoulders and said calmly: "If it were me, I would wait and see what happens to see who is plotting against the Inspection Department and Mu Tianlang. Uncle Zong is not the best candidate to be the counselor of the Privy Council."
"What Brother Yin said is indeed true. When it comes to the Privy Council, someone like Brother Yin is the most suitable person to be in charge.
But as Brother Yin said, the Privy Council is a powerful weapon for the country. Without qualifications and reputation, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold this position.
Although there has been no explicit order from the imperial court in recent years, those who have been in charge of the Privy Council in past dynasties are not members of the Three Gongs and Nine Ministers, but also relatives of the emperor and the state. Even if there are not many important officials in the court who can serve as counselors of the Privy Council.
Back then, in order to quell the chaos, I had no choice but to let Mr. Yang take charge of the Privy Council for the first time. There was really no suitable candidate. This was the case then and it is the same now. Unless I dare to take over the errands of the Privy Council again, let Brother Yin secretly manage it for me."
"Haha, the prince is now the target of public criticism. Even if the emperor is interested, the court will not agree.
Inspection Department, Mu Tianlang, plus a Privy Council, then the emperor might as well give you the whole world of Da Gan.
So it’s because of this that the prince must protect Uncle Zong?”
"Yeah." Li Luo replied in a deep voice, but he secretly hid the shadow of Yang Liuyan in his heart and did not let Yin Mohuai know.
Yin Mohuai closed his eyes and rested for a while before saying slowly: "Although your thoughts are different from mine, there is nothing wrong with it.
Even if Uncle Zong can get away with it this time, his position as Counselor of the Privy Council may also be in jeopardy. Since you still want to save this useless person, you might as well try to take a different approach."
Li Luo didn't get angry and said softly: "I just came back to Zhuocheng, and there are people watching every move I make. If I want to take the wrong approach, even if I can hide it from these people, I won't have enough time."
"Haha, so the prince wants to lend me my hand to take advantage of the situation?"
"That's what I mean. I wonder what Brother Yin wants?"
Yin Mohuai opened his eyes and said leisurely: "Dizhou lost three cities."
"I heard that it was occupied by the Hui Mongols, and Linxia City was among them."
"These three cities should not have been lost, and they cannot be lost."
Li Luo's expression darkened. There were still more than 200,000 Mu Tianlang troops in Dizhou, led by Shen Xiangdong and Yun Wuyan. Mu Tianlang did not return to Mongolia, but he did not want to compromise his strength before turning against Meng Jue.
, Debate, today's Mu Tianlang is no longer what it used to be, and he will never let him go back to Mengzhan and go to the three cities of Dizhou so easily.
"Someone in the court reported that there was no need to station too many troops in Dizhou, the capital of the West, and asked the court to order to reduce the number of Mu Tianlang soldiers. I don't know how much they will be reduced, but it is said that there are nearly one hundred thousand. Mu Tianlang's elite
If we reduce the number by one hundred thousand, once Meng Jue raises his troops, what will Dagan use to counter it? Will he Dingbei's army?"
Li Luo was silent. What happened in the court could not be hidden from Li Luo's ears. He had been reducing the number of troops stationed by Mu Tianlang for a long time. Important ministers in the court mentioned it several times. Now that the war in Xifu has ended, there is no need to retain such a large number of troops.
army.
On that day, Li Luo led his troops to unite with Di Jie's troops and dismissed hundreds of thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled people. Even so, the people in the court were still not satisfied, but they were saying that Mu Tianlang wasted money from the national treasury. If it weren't for the Xifu
The war has rekindled, and Mu Tianlang is trying to revive Dizhou's farming, animal husbandry and business travel. Maybe he will be issued an order by the imperial court.
"You have been in charge of the most powerful people in the world for a long time. Unfortunately, you have killed too few people. Although it is shameful for everyone in the world to fight against different parties, the struggle for power has been like this since ancient times."
"Who should I kill?"
"You really want me to say that?"
Li Luo sighed and said calmly: "It's okay, I also want to hear Brother Yin's opinion."
"On top of the imperial court there are nothing more than civil and military officials. Wen is headed by the Grand Tutor Ling Shutong, and Wu is headed by Prince Chun.
Let's not talk about Wu for the moment. After all, you are the son of Prince Chun. A tiger can't eat its seeds, and you will eventually have a love for incense. But Ling Shutong is a two-faced person, and the chaos in the court has something to do with him. This kind of person just wants to keep him.
The sooner the disaster is eliminated, the sooner you can feel at ease."
Li Luo smiled bitterly and said: "The Grand Tutor ranks among the three princes, how can he be removed just by wanting to do so?"
"Back then, the Grand Master was also one of the Three Dukes, with all the power in the government and the public, but you uprooted him overnight. Now, these people in the government are more afraid of you than they respect you. If things go on like this, they will eventually cause trouble.
I have heard someone say, "My lord, the difference between you and me is that you will only take action after the incident, but I prefer to take action beforehand. If you can stay in Zhuocheng, I think you will be able to do it according to your intelligence."
There won't be any big chaos, but can you keep Zhuocheng?"
"Tiger has no intention of hurting people, but people have the intention to kill tigers. First it was the prince, then King Mingwu, and now it is all my fault. I have trapped myself in a cocoon. It is really a shame."
"As long as the prince understands, there is no need to accuse him of any crime. The prince has been running around for several years, but he can't even talk to me in the pillow."
"Thank you Brother Yin for your advice, but now we have to resolve Master Yang's danger first."
Yin Mohuai said nonchalantly: "Okay, since the prince has this intention, then I will pick up this knife."
"What should Brother Yin do?"
"In extraordinary times, extraordinary methods should be used. Your Majesty must have meant this too."
Li Luo stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go back home first. Before tomorrow morning, you and I should agree on this extraordinary method."
Yin Mohuai smiled faintly and was noncommittal. Li Luo walked a few steps, suddenly stood still, and asked: "Since Brother Yin doesn't want to help Mr. Yang, why did he design to postpone the case of Xiao Fu Wang for more than half a month?"
"I promised to help you, so why bother making you unhappy? If you can come back in half a month, it will be an explanation from me. If you can't come back, it just fulfills my wish. I didn't expect you to really come back.
,pity."
Li Luo smiled, cupped his fists and saluted, and quietly returned to the abandoned building.
