The morning meeting the next day was still the same. Zhong Yehan was sitting on the dragon throne as usual, but his expression looked a little decadent: "This, my fourth prince, Zhong Langyu who is now in Luo City, he came up yesterday. Zhezi said that he is going to Beijing, please discuss it and see if it is appropriate."
The ministers began to discuss, and except for Ximen Dehao and a few ministers, everyone agreed that Prince Yin returned to the capital.
Zhong Yehan looked at Zhong Langyao beside him: "I already know what the prince means. He also supports Prince Yin to return to the capital. However, as soon as Prince Yin leaves, the post of Commander-in-Chief of Zhennan becomes vacant. Take a look. Who can do it?"
The ministers began to discuss again, and Ximen Dehao spoke first: "Your Majesty, I have never advocated that Prince Yinjun return to the capital. If the emperor has already made a decision, then I recommend someone who is not only well versed in the art of war, but also has a distinguished status. He He is fully qualified for the post of Marshal of Zhennan."
Zhong Yehan smiled slightly: "There is such a person beside me, why didn't I know! Tell me, who is it?"
Ximen Dehao pointed at Zhong Langfu, the king of Ling County: "The one I recommend is the third prince Zhong Langfu."
As soon as this statement came out, the ministers couldn't help but shake their heads. It seemed that everyone had different views on this recommendation.
Sure enough, Grand Sima Han Dun was the first to object: "Your Majesty, I also think that the third prince's martial arts skills are unparalleled, but although the third prince's martial arts skills are high, he is not very outstanding in other aspects. Luo City is close to the country of Yuli, and the situation is quite complicated. I still recommend it. The second prince Zhong Langxi. The second prince is smart and astute, and has a good way of handling complex situations. I believe he is qualified for the post of Marshal of Zhennan." Obviously, Grand Sima Han Dun is also in the prince's party, and he completely listened to the prince when he said this of bewitchment.
Zhong Yehan turned to the prince and asked, "What do you think?"
Zhong Langyao had already been rejected by the emperor yesterday, and naturally he did not dare to recommend his second brother today: "All sons and ministers listen to the father."
Zhong Yehan thought for a moment: "This is indeed a difficult matter, but I think Zhong Langyu has done a good job in the south. There is no need to rush back to Beijing. Even if he wants to return, he must wait until southern Xinjiang is stabilized. You guys What do you think?"
When everyone saw the emperor's ruling, they had no choice but to echo: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Zhong Yehan nodded: "Since everyone has the same opinion, I will issue an order later to let Prince Yin work for a while longer, and then come back when southern Xinjiang is a little more stable. Also, there have been a series of unsolved cases in Cangzhou recently. Cangzhou The prefect Duan Wenliang has been unable to solve the case, so I want to send a prince to go. Prince, who do you think is suitable to send?"
Zhong Langyao said to his heart, Father, what are you doing? Isn't it just a case? Why do we have to go? I don't want to go anyway, why don't we let the three reckless men go, right! This is the idea: "Father, this is what I should do, but the court affairs are busy recently, and I have to assist my father in handling government affairs. The third brother is wise and courageous, so he can go to Cangzhou to help investigate the case."
Zhong Yehan was secretly happy because he just wanted Prince Ling to go. The prince's evil deeds had completely disappointed the emperor. He had already planned to depose the prince, so he wanted Prince Ling to go and experience it. My third son is good at everything, but he is too reckless. If he becomes more mature through experience, I will make him the prince.
"Then Prince Ling, what do you mean, are you going or not?" Zhong Yehan looked at Zhong Langfu with earnest eyes.
Zhong Langfu stepped forward and saluted: "My sons and ministers all obey my father's orders!"
Zhong Yehan nodded, and then said: "Okay! Then go to Cangzhou. Handling cases is different from fighting. You need to use your brain more and learn from local officials."
"I understand!" Zhong Langfu stepped in and saluted, with the demeanor of a general.
Zhong Langyao was extremely happy when he saw that his idea was adopted by his father. The princes who were against me were all kicked out of the capital by me, and now my position as prince is even more secure.
