It''s just that it''s disrespectful to the emperor to be absent-minded in the early Dynasty. The ministers at the bottom didn''t expect that even the emperor could tolerate it. The ministers who had planned to see Leng Shaoyuan''s play were somewhat disappointed, but they looked at Leng Shaoyuan with more resentment and reluctance.


    Leng Shaoyuan turned his head slightly and met those eyes very provocatively. With a hook on the corner of his mouth, he hummed. The ministers were indignant at once. The more impulsive one seemed to have to go up and quarrel with Leng Shaoyuan. Fortunately, some of the ministers who were still holding their breath held him in time.


    With a smile, Leng Shaoyuan turned back from their eyes, looked up at the emperor and said: "last time, general Shao led his troops to victory over the frontier, and the frontier lost a lot. What''s more, he signed an armistice agreement with us. Now the prestige of general Shao has made the small frontier countries lose their courage. Why don''t the emperor take advantage of the prestige of general Shao and let him lead the troops to the frontier again What about a heavy blow? "


    As soon as Leng Shaoyuan said this, the sound of air pumping around him began to rise one after another. Even general Shao''s face, who was always calm, gradually became ugly.


    It''s no wonder that general Shao''s face became ugly. Leng Shaoyuan was very thorough. From the upper court until now, he didn''t hear much about the important matters discussed between the emperor and the ministers. That is to say, he rarely heard a little, and most of them came from the left ear to the right ear. Therefore, he didn''t have any impression in his mind. Naturally, he didn''t know that general Shao had taken the initiative to talk about his public affairs Shao Mo Li recommended Shao Mo Li to the emperor and asked him to lead the army. However, because he had suffered many injuries during the last expedition, he has not yet recovered and is not suitable for the expedition.


    Sure enough, the emperor and Leng Shaoyuan said: "just now general Shao has said that his old injury is not healed, so it is inconvenient for him to go to the war. Shao Moli, who went to the war with him last time, also made great achievements in the war. What do you think of him as the commander in chief this time?"


    Shao Moli is really a general. Since general Shao dares to recommend him, he must be sure that he can win a big victory. Therefore, Leng Shaoyuan has no objection: "I also think that Shao''s son can shoulder the heavy responsibility."


    The emperor said, but he didn''t play according to the common sense: "although Shao''s son is good, I have a more suitable candidate in my heart."


    Leng Shaoyuan was stunned and looked at the emperor with a little doubt. However, he still followed his words and asked, "who is the more suitable person in Saint Shangkou?"


    The emperor took a meaningful look at Leng Shaoyuan and asked, "what do you think of yourself, Anyang king?"


    As soon as this remark came out, not only the ministers at the bottom, but also Leng Shaoyuan himself was surprised: "me?"


    The emperor looked at Leng Shaoyuan with a smile and said, "I want you to be in command. What does Anyang King mean? Of course, if you don''t want to, I won''t force you. "


    In the eyes of most ministers in the court, Leng Shaoyuan is a typical dandy, but this dandy is deeply loved by the emperor because of his good appearance and glib mouth, and has become a favorite of the emperor, but that''s all It''s OK to make the emperor happy, but now it''s related to state affairs. How can the emperor play with Leng Shaoyuan?


    No, before Leng Shaoyuan showed his mind to the emperor, as the mainstay of the fourth Prince party, Prime Minister Sikou changsikou immediately stood up and said to the emperor, "holy, this is not right."


    The emperor''s eyes swept to sikochang: "our prime minister seems to have some objection, but the prime minister has come to talk about it. What''s wrong with it?"


    Sikochang arched his hand: "it''s not right to send Anyang king to lead the army."


    The emperor was noncommittal, just quietly looking at sikochang, waiting for him to go on.


    Sikochang took a look at the emperor, and then continued: "although the frontier has not been afraid after the last heavy damage, Anyang king has never had experience in the battlefield. It''s too hasty to let him take command of the army for the first time."


    The emperor took a look at Leng Shaoyuan''s face and saw that he looked as usual. He said with a smile, "ah, the prime minister is worried. The king of Anyang has excellent strategy and excellent martial arts. Even if he has no combat experience, I believe he will live up to my expectations. Moreover, who has not had a first time in everything? If the prime minister is not at ease, I can order Shao Moli to be the deputy commander Help Shaoyuan, and you''ll be safe. "


    "Emperor, but this..."


    Si kouchang wanted to say something more, but the emperor interrupted him with a wave of his hand. He turned to Leng Shaoyuan and asked with a smile, "Shaoyuan, I have been arguing with the Prime Minister for a long time, but I haven''t asked your opinion. Are you willing to lead the army?"


    Leng Shaoyuan looked up at the emperor, his eyes far-reaching, as if he was thinking about something.


    The emperor ignored the opinions of the ministers and insisted on ordering him to be the commander in chief. However, he only appointed Shao Moli as the deputy commander in chief and asked him to help him. The emperor''s intention may not be seen by others, but Leng Shaoyuan felt like a mirror.


    In addition to knowing Leng Shaoyuan''s strength in his heart, the reason why the emperor did this was that he believed that it was impossible for Leng Shaoyuan to go out to fight a battle. What he did was that he wanted Leng Shaoyuan to make a ready-made contribution, make his position in the court more stable, and strengthen the power of the crown prince party.In fact, seven points of the emperor''s love for Leng Shaoyuan came from himself, and another three points came from the fact that he was on the side of the prince. Leng Shaoyuan grew up with the prince since he was a child. He had a good feeling. The emperor always knew this. Although the prince''s temperament has changed greatly since his serious illness two years ago, and he and Leng Shaoyuan are not as close as they used to be, this does not affect Leng Shaoyuan''s determination to support him to the throne.


    Although the emperor clearly preferred the fourth Prince and made the sixth Prince popular in the court, in his heart, the crown prince was the destiny. The so-called "Li Chang Li Di", once the crown prince was established, it would not be so easy to abolish it.


    However, the two groups of Ministers who support the fourth Prince and the sixth Prince obviously don''t think so. What they think about is how to bring down the prince so that their master can take his place.


    So what the emperor can do is to try his best to balance the power between the two factions, so as to protect the prince.


    Now there is a sikochang in the fourth Prince party and a Shao general in the sixth Prince party. Regardless of the top two ministers, the two groups are equally powerful. This is what the emperor is happy to see, so he does not allow any other forces to break this balance at this moment.


    But general Shao now wants to recommend his son Shao Moli to take charge of the battle. Once Shao Moli comes back after winning the battle, he is bound to strengthen the power of the sixth Prince sect. The emperor will not allow this to happen, so naturally he can''t agree with general Shao''s recommendation. But after all, Shao''s military achievements were outstanding, and the emperor had to give him a step down.
