0132 The old horse is not good, it is not a good Ji

He said that Wu Chengsi was involved in political affairs, and the military, national, Taiwan province, foreign states and other aspects were all orderly and moderately important.

After listening to Wu Chengsi's report, the God Emperor Wu Zetian looked at him with a hint of praise, and said, "I finally experienced it and had the temperament of the prime minister. Luantai and Fengge are equally important to both the state affairs and arrange you in this position. Whether you are in your own position or in a matter, you should have grand rituals and should not focus on the details. The prime minister should govern the people and not fight against personnel."

After hearing this, Wu Chengsi reacted very fiercely. He turned over and stood up, bowed to the hall and said tremblingly: "My material is dull, and I cannot bear great consequences. Fortunately, I have been celebrating my grace for many years. I have been carved with the Hadith, allowing me to grow up calmly. Now that I am at a high position, I don't like my own glory, but I am only happy that I can finally share my work for Your Majesty..."

Wu Zetian was in a good mood and had a much kinder attitude towards Wu Chengsi: "I just praised you for being the prime minister, why are you worried about gains and losses? The prime minister is very generous and not afraid of favors and disgraces. How can he destroy his demeanor because of a mere small reward?"

"I just bluffed my voice and used His Majesty's kindness to pretend that I was respectful to me. But in front of His Majesty, how could I dare to be so beautiful? On the outside, I am a puppet raised by ropes, and on the inside, I am a fool who is stubborn and seeks kindness..."

Wu Chengsi was able to let go of his figure. Seeing that His Majesty the Divine Emperor was even more happy, he danced and performed clumsy dramas.

When he returned to the table, he said again: "This time the army has returned, and has made great contributions to the frontier and is intimidated by the inside. The people who have made great efforts are also closely connected and ready to go. However, there are still obstacles in the planning of the government affairs hall and it is also time to be clarified. For example, Zhang Guangfu and others, the obstacles are particularly deep, and the expansion of hundreds of cavalry is here."

When Wu Zetian heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

The Yuqin Guard's plan failed to make her feel that the forces of the guards in the South Ya are still very strong, and there are too many hidden dangers hidden in it, which is also a great threat to the palace ban. Therefore, she wanted to expand the hundred cavalry to thousands of cavalry and recruit more strength to serve the Subei Ya, in order to replace the duties of the Suwei Guards in the North Ya.

This proposal was proposed shortly after Xue Huaiyi's army was dispatched, but it was delayed in the Nanya Zhengshi Hall. It was discussed continuously on many trivial issues such as soldiers, idle stables, utensils, salaries, etc.

"How about the guards of the Southern Yawu collecting folk songs?"

If the prime minister does not cooperate, Wu Zetian can only choose to attack in a roundabout way. If the guards of the Southern Yaya can get enough support, even if the Political Affairs Hall fails to pass, they can organize the soldiers and weapons and sticks first. After creating a certain fact, it will be much simpler to negotiate with the Political Affairs Hall.

"I thought about seeing Qiu Shenjie a few days ago. In this way, I have not yet replied firmly..."

Wu Chengsi said again.

After hearing this, Wu Zetian's face became even more ugly and he snorted coldly: "I really want to take power into my private affairs?"

Wu Chengsi frowned and said, "He should be afraid of such a retreat, and may be arguing for the Nanya community, so he did not dare to nod his head."

Since Emperor Gaozong's dynasty, the number of penny registrations in Zhechong Prefectures in various states has been severe, and the number of soldiers in the country has decreased year by year. In addition, the heavy military affairs of foreign wars are often several years away. Even if you get merit, it is often difficult to fulfill them in full. The soldiers in the government are very tired of war, and the situation of escape is getting worse and worse, so the proportion of athletes in the later battles has become higher and higher.

Previously, Wei Waiji made a major event that he had been preparing for in the three years of Chuigong, and he was able to officially go to war. The reason why Wu Zetian sent Xue Huaiyi again was that he deliberately regulated the military affairs of the two capitals and other prefectures in Henan, Hebei and other states.

After the two armies left, the Southern Ya Guards had almost no soldiers available except for the three prefectures of Xunyi. However, the Jinwu Guards were another exception. Since they still bear the heavy responsibility of city defense, the Zhechong Mansions under the left and right of the Jinwu Guards were not included in the conscript sequence of this expedition.

Because of this, the left and right Jinwu Guards have a particularly important position in the military system of the South Ya. Among them, the right Jinwu Guard General was led by Hu Kei, a border guard, and the left Jinwu Guard General Qiu Shenji's statement was particularly important for this matter.

This is also a situation deliberately created by Wu Zetian. Now the two most important military forces in Shendu City are the Nanya Jinwu Guard and the Beiya Imperial Army. Even if the prime minister still has the intention to restrain himself, it is difficult to refer to the Nanya military power. Qiu Shenji has always been her confidant. It can be said that Wu Zetian has gained an overwhelming advantage in the current Shendu City.

But Wu Zetian didn't expect that things would be stuck in Qiu Shenji!

Although it is obvious that the expansion of Baiqi is invading the military power of the Southern Yai Guard, this is definitely not the reason why Qiu Shenji obstructed him.

After all, the Jinwu Guard is not from his family. Even if his power is damaged, he can be the General of the Left Jinwu Guard today, and may be the General of the Left Yulin tomorrow. The level of power depends only on the will of the God Emperor. It has no meaning to him to guard the power of the Jinwu Guard.

Since this is the case, there must be a deeper reason, that is, the dispute between prime ministerial power and imperial power represented by the Southern Ya and the Northern Ya.

As Wu Chengsi said, Qiu Shenji was afraid that this retreat would damage the military power of the Nanya, and might be retaliated by the Prime Minister of the Nanya! In other words, he was worried that he would become a victim of this dispute, and he was worried that the Emperor of God would not protect him as hard as he did in previous years, and he had become centrifugal!

Qiu Shenji's ambiguous attitude naturally made Wu Zetian feel very dissatisfied. He thought of the previous person's enthusiasm for the border responsibilities of the north attack on the Turks. All kinds of things declared that the other party was unwilling or dared not to tie the future and power to the Divine Emperor, and wanted to plan a way out.

Although he was already unhappy, Wu Zetian still did not decide to attack Qiu Shenji.

The reason is very simple. Although she has been in power for a long time, her military control has always been weak. Qiu Shenji is one of the few military generals who can stand clearly behind her.

Once Qiu Shenji is moved, her weak military control over the Nanya will be completely exposed. No matter how disagreeable the prime ministers are, they will definitely join forces to give her greater restraint. Moreover, she is indeed unable to find both loyalty and qualifications. The monk Shenji is more suitable for the Zuo Jinwu Guard.

"Since that's the case, there is no need to ask him about this matter. Sansi is the Minister of the Xia Office of the Ministry of War, and he will also choose the family members of Shang Chengzhi to set up a stable in the ban. The left and right guards are all relatives, and the Qianniu Guards are honored, and they will recruit good cavalry, and collect the talismans of the palaces..."

Qiu Shenji's attitude is ambiguous. If he continues to negotiate, it will inevitably lead to the category of bargaining. If he makes him realize the importance of his current attitude, he will definitely become more and more indecent and demands are made, which Wu Zetian will absolutely not tolerate.

But she never follows the same method in doing things. Since the regular approach has not yet achieved the goal, she will do it in a roundabout way and first achieve the effect of expanding the Hundred Riders through several aspects.

If the Beiya wants to expand the new army, it only focuses on people, horses, and tools. If the veterans of Zhechong Mansion cannot be recruited, then the officials and slaves will be strong and powerful, and the troops will be fully promoted.

Without the order from the Political Affairs Hall, the Beiya could not set up a stable to accumulate horsepower, so I might as well take the position of Shang Cheng, who is in charge of the imperial horses in the Xianjian, and can be allocated additional imperial horses for the military use of the Beiya at any time.

If the Beiya cannot obtain the power of the patrol police in the imperial city, he simply takes the position of the general and the guard of the palace gate as his confidant.

Although nominally, these powers are still owned by each military and department, they can actually operate independently. Only a suitable opportunity can be completely separated from the military and department and obtain official numbers and authority.

Wu Chengsi recorded the instructions of the Divine Emperor in detail, and he admired the Divine Emperor's exquisite power and strategy even more. After the big goal of expanding the Hundred Cavalry was split, many personnel changes did not need to be approved by the Political Affairs Hall. With his current authority, he could fully operate it.

"In this way, when the frontier news spreads frequently and people are frightened, who will force themselves to stop things, and it will naturally happen!"

Hearing Wu Chengsi say this, Wu Zetian frowned again: "I am one with the country, and I will win the frontier, and the country is prosperous. This is a happy event for all the scholars and common people. Who will be afraid except for the traitors who have evil thoughts?"

Wu Chengsi nodded repeatedly and accused him of his crime.

"Yes, where has Emperor Yizong gone to Xiuzhou?"

After pondering for a while, Wu Zetian asked again. After weighing the pros and cons, she finally decided to re-report Xu Jingye's old case and eliminate the traitors inside and outside the court and the country at a targeted position.

One is that people and things are different. This will cause the least shock to the current situation and people's hearts, which is far better than directly investigating the imperial guards of the South Ya. Second, she also wants to see that so many years have passed, and how many hidden evils are still left behind and how many hidden evils are missed at that time.

"There was a message a few days ago. It has passed Dengzhou and is about to enter Luo."

"That's good. Be sure to pay attention to the secrets and don't be greedy for the convenience of the post road. The envoys who sent the searches of households in each state should also be sent out as soon as possible. Once the opportunity is ripe, arrest them immediately!"

When Wu Zetian talked about this, his face had already shown obvious murderous intent, but after a small pause, he said: "When I arrived at Guiluo, I would like to see all kinds of memorial secrets in Fangzhou."

When Wu Chengsi heard this, a trace of harsh gloom flashed in his eyes, but he quickly lowered his head. After a pause, he said again: "I thought about it three times and thought about Qiu Shenjie's fault. It is actually related to the old love. After all, he is still loyal and diligent, and he is afraid and distant..."

At this point, his tone gradually became weaker, because he saw the Divine Emperor looking at him without blinking, without any joy or anger in his eyes.

"High officials, heavy salaries, and thick shade. Why don't people give me what they want? There is a horse in the stable, although it has a force of thousands of miles, but it has no power to step. If you don't feed, you will neigh. Do you think such a beast is a good horse or a bad horse?"

Wu Zetian slowly withdrew his gaze. At this time, another female official went to the palace and reported: "Report to Your Majesty, Your Highness, Your Highness, please leave the palace again."

Hearing this, Wu Zetian sighed sadly, and after a moment of silence, he spoke again: "Go to summon Shangguan Cairen into the palace, examine all matters, and send the princess back to the yard."

While speaking, she looked at Wu Chengsi with a thoughtful look on her face and ordered: "You will also accompany you to send your cousin to the residence. If there is any lack of replenishment, make sure to make sure that this lady is not bothered."

After hearing this, Wu Chengsi quickly stood up and did not dare to refuse: "I must properly escort His Highness the Princess to the residence, and ask about daily life diligently, and never slacken."

"No need, after all, you are the prime minister of the founding dynasty, not her town order, just express your heart."
