C4790 A Pillar of the Country
He didn't directly answer Zhao Yuanyan's question, but used the classics to explain his reason for doing so.
"Now, the Emperor has sent out twelve golden plate tokens, proving that you have given Lu Yu and the others room to maneuver. But Lu Yu and the others actually did not appreciate it and even killed the imperial advisor. They have already committed a heinous crime. No matter what period of time it was, this kind of crime was enough to kill all nine generations of their family."
Huang Zicheng revealed a smile and said," The Emperor seems to have lost face, but in reality, we have already broken the righteousness and reputation of Lu Yu. So what if he has more battle achievements? He is still just a person who disobeys orders and is arrogant and despotic. If we take care of him now, we'll be able to justify ourselves."
" So that's your plan... "
Zhao Yuanyan narrowed his eyes, as if he was calculating something.
Huang Zicheng suddenly prostrated on the ground and said earnestly: "The Emperor has many eyes and ears by his side. This official is worried that if this matter were to spread out, I'm afraid that Lu Yu would know in advance and let him think of a countermeasure. Helpless, he came up with this plan and hid it from the Emperor. I hope the Emperor will punish me."
Zhao Yuanyan looked down from above and asked: "In this situation, what do you plan to do?"
"Very simple, this official has already prepared the following countermeasures..." At the end, Huang Zicheng's voice suddenly became weak, as soft as a mosquito.
He was currently sending a sound transmission, so no one else could hear him at all.
Zhao Yuanyan's expression was sometimes shocked, sometimes delighted, and finally revealed a trace of a smile on his face.
"Your Excellency is the pillar of the country. With your assistance, I will rebuild Great Yu." Zhao Yuanyan said with mixed emotions.
Huang Zicheng said with fear and trepidation, "Your Majesty, you flatter me. I do not deserve it."
"If Zhen says you are worthy, then you will be Zhen's Kingdom Knight. Yang Shouyi is old, his old age and blurry vision is not enough for him to be the head assistant of the Imperial Court. Tomorrow Zhen will announce that you will be conferred the title of HuaGai Palace Grand Secretary. You are Zhen's first assistant. " Zhao Yuanyan made a prompt decision.
Huang Zicheng was so excited that his entire body was trembling. He hurriedly knelt down to express his gratitude and cried bitterly. He swore his loyalty to Zhao Yuanyan.
"In addition, the matter of making peace with Tang needs to be considered thorough. Xu Qing, I'll be relying on you at this time." Zhao Yuanyan looked at Xu Tiangang.
Xu Tiangang leaned forward and cupped his hands, "Emperor, my Xu Family happens to have a cruel official. At the most critical moment, using torture is enough to deter everyone and prevent them from having thoughts of rebelling."
Huang Zixiu also said: "That's right, the outside world has some negative comments about our peace with the Tang Dynasty. Now that the people are seething with resentment, this official is worried that in the long run, it might cause trouble."
Zhao Yuanyan helplessly shook his head, "These people simply do not understand Zhen's painstaking efforts. Minister Xu, I will have to trouble you with this matter. Get rid of those people who are fanning the flames behind the scenes."
...
In the dark starry sky, the stars were shining, silent and silent.
Numerous enormous transport ships were rapidly advancing through the starry sky, moving rapidly and breaking through the wind.
On top of these transport ships hung a Yun Fan, and a clear black dragon pattern was drawn on it. It looked like a true dragon was roaring towards the sky.
This was the backup transportation legion of the Qianlong Army.
A long transport line extended from the East Victory Galaxy to the front line of the Imperial Capital.
In order to force Lu Yu into a dead end, Zhao Yuanyan had cut off all supplies. However, this did not stop the Hidden Dragon Army. Under the arrangements of Pei Tianguang and the others, a long supply line was quickly built.
