Chapter 853 Five ministers discuss politics, the genius Lu Tao
Ping County.
Ying Xiong, Xu Hanzhang and two other people wearing Confucian uniforms gathered in the Governor's Mansion.
Judging from the postures of the remaining two people, they clearly have the same status as Ying Xiong and Xu Hanzhang.
One of them is the youngest among the four, at least ten years younger than the youngest of the remaining three. He is Huangfu Qing, who was born in the clan.
Although this person is only two or three years older than Huangfu Mingzhao, Huangfu Mingfeng and the others, he is definitely a generation older than Huangfu Mingzhao and Huangfu Mingfeng, and is their uncle.
The late emperor's biological brother, and he has the same father and mother.
When the late emperor came to power, although many people in the royal family died, many people were still alive and well. Moreover, we can know from the age of this person, how old was he when Emperor Cang came to power? Naturally
It's alive and well.
After the Battle of Tianjing, like Yan Beikuan, he was also one of the people who fled.
After all, he didn't dare to bet on whether his brother, Prince Jing, could tolerate him?
The other one, Sima Wude, was a member of the Sima family of the Sixth Family. Wang Yu's classmate Sima Qingrou was his nephew. He had served as the magistrate of Yecheng, the governor of Guangyin, and many other official positions. He also served as the minister of the Ministry of War.
, after the war in Tianjing, he resigned and became an official, but now he has gone to live with Huangfu Mingzhao's son.
Ying Xiong, Xu Hanzhang, Huangfu Qing, Sima Wude, plus Xiao Ruolin, the governor of Hexi Province who was in charge of Hexi Province, these five people are now the five ministers of this newly established small court.
It was also the establishment of this small court, five of the eight heroes. As for the remaining three, two of them were naturally Li Shikai and Gu Yeming who had already died for their country.
And the remaining one...
Since the young emperor was young, the five ministers now formed a council of five ministers according to ancient rituals. The five ministers discussed government affairs, and state affairs were decided through discussion by the five ministers.
If there is any disagreement in the end, it will be decided by a vote of five people, with the minority obeying the majority.
According to historical records, five ministers discussed politics.
"The current situation has finally developed in the direction that we least want to see!" Xu Hanzhang had a worried look on his face.
Although they had already made preparations for Li Shikai's defeat and Hexi Dao to invade Hedong on the pretext of attacking Li Shikai and Gu Yeming, who would have thought that not only was Li Shikai defeated, but the leader of Hedong Dao was completely depleted.
The only ones who came back alive were the few thousand defeated generals led by Ming Dao and the rest of the cavalry.
Of the 100,000 troops and horses, nearly 90,000 have not returned!
With only half of the soldiers of Hexi Road, even if they continue to control the basic territory of Hedong Road in this way according to the original plan, they have empty territory but no soldiers and horses. In the face of Wang Yu's massive attack, there is really no chance.
Any confidence.
Li Shikai and Gu Yeming had sacrificed too much. If they couldn't support this small court just after it was established, they would be really sorry for those two colleagues!
I heard that Governor Gu did not forget Cangshi at the last moment of his life, and told King Zijiantang to fix the Cang day in the north, and to remember to tell Naiwen during family sacrifices. How could they live up to those who have passed away?
Although a small number of these five ministers have their own thoughts, at least most of them have the same enthusiasm as Li Shikai and Gu Yeming. And even if a small number of those have their own thoughts, at this time, their general direction
Still consistent.
"For the present plan, we can only adopt the plan of Xian Lin Gong!" Ying Xiong looked hesitant.
They said that Duke Xian Lin offered this last plan before leaving Da Cang, but they could not make up their minds to adopt it.
"When Mr. Xianlin left Da Cang, he must have already anticipated today, right? Otherwise, Mr. Xianlin wouldn't have to go there first!"
Although Xu Hanzhang was good at planning and coming up with strange schemes, he still had an honest side to his character, similar to Lu Su and Lu Zijing in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to take that last step. But from a situation perspective, he seemed to have to take that step, which made him in a dilemma and quite hesitant.
"Lu Tao and Lu Xianlin, that person is not trustworthy!"
Sima Wude did not doubt Lu Tao's talent, but he was still young, but he felt inferior to him.
Even among all the people he has met, his talents are rare. Among people of the same age as Lu Tao, Sima Wude has never seen anyone who can surpass Lu Tao. This Lu Tao and Lu Xianlin are worthy of their youthful fame.
However, Sima Wude really couldn't trust someone like him.
Eighty percent of the plans for establishing the dynasty came from this person. However, he did not have to hold an official position, and even the identity of the other party was only known to them.
Sima Wude asked himself, people always want something, and they always want a little bit of fame, power, wealth and fortune. But this man didn't want anything, which made him unable to let go of him!
"Even if Duke Xianlin is untrustworthy, at least he is definitely not a rebellious person!"
"That's it, that's enough!" Although Xu Hanzhang was worried about this, he still said so.
However, he didn’t know whether his words were meant to comfort others or to comfort himself!
"In that case, then send a message to Mr. Xian Lin as soon as possible!" Ying Xiong said with lowered eyes.
If he really had to take that step, Mr. Xianlin must have been prepared by now.
"Brother Chang Lin, what's going on with the Zhennan Army? Ma Zhennan is still willing to be loyal to the imperial court!" Xu Hanzhang said with the last glimmer of hope.
This is the last friendly force in the entire Great Cangzhiping!
The remaining ones, Da Cang and Da Cang are both strong, and they definitely want to destroy them quickly!
The four small alliances, as forces that directly participated in the demise of Huangfu Mingzhao's court, are also incompatible with them. This time, the Zhenxi Army was able to sit back and watch them fight with Wang Ni, instead of dealing with them, but cooperated with Xuanyuan
Ni and their covetous eyes on Jing Ni have reached their limit.
For these forces, it is politically correct to fight against them!
"General Qianli doesn't want to let go!" Huangfu Qing sighed. He is not a particularly outstanding member of the royal family. His bloodline plays a large role in becoming one of the five ministers.
Now that Cangshi has collapsed, he has always had thoughts about that position! But no matter what, he has no support internally, no troops outside, and it is difficult to be independent. It is difficult to plan for that position.
As for the Zhennan Army, Ma Qianli still believed that their side was orthodox compared to Prince Jing, the rebellious king.
It's a pity that the land east of Hexi and Zhennan Mansion are thousands of miles apart. Once he jumps out, the surrounding areas will be completely isolated and helpless.
Moreover, in today's small court, they do not have enough strength to let Zhennan Army see the hope of establishing Cangshi again. Therefore, they will not express their stance so early.
