In the first month of the first year of Jingrui, the new emperor decreed that Zeng Huai, the imperial prince of Zhaoyuan, and Yan Shixue, the minister of rites, entered the cabinet, and Zeng Huai was the head and auxiliary minister.

The first time Liang Zhen saw the seventy-year-old newly appointed first assistant was in the imperial study room of Ganlin Palace. Seeing him look solemn and unsmiling, Liang Zhen couldn't help sighing. The little emperor has become more and more polite since he ascended the throne. That's it, now an old-fashioned old-fashioned person has come to talk to the ears, and I'm afraid that he will be immersed in the ears and eyes, and those who are close to the ink will be black.

Zhu Yunxuan and Zeng Huai were discussing matters, and Liang Zhen came uninvited, and after listening to it, he realized that Zhu Yunxuan wanted to appoint the Marquis of Dingyuan as a duke of the country. After listening to it for a while, he said unwillingly: "Marquis Dingyuan has earned a lot of military exploits, and only got a marquis position. Now, with a stroke of his pen, His Majesty wants to give him the Duchess and Duchess?"

Zhu Yunxuan explained indifferently: "Mrs. Hou guarded the pass, and she also deserved credit. She should have been rewarded for her merits."

"That's far worse than Marquis Dingyuan. Your Majesty does this, isn't he afraid of being criticized?"

Zhu Yunxuan sneered lightly: "What is the credit of King Zhao, just because he has just reached the weak crown, he was given the king?"

Liang Zhen smiled and said indifferently: "Your Majesty is as selfish as the previous emperor, and he is not afraid of others' discussion, so naturally it is possible."

Zeng Huai frowned and reminded him, "King Zhao, please be careful."

"This minister is for His Majesty's sake," Liang Zhen only looked at Zhu Yunxuan, "I'm afraid that His Majesty's anger will fall into place."

"I have made up my mind, King Zhao doesn't need to say more." Zhu Yunxuan interrupted him coldly.

Liang Zhen simply shut his mouth and stopped talking. That Mrs. Dingyuan Hou was a man, and she was the abolished prince who fled by suspended animation, let alone a duke.

Zhu Yunxuan stopped paying attention to him and discussed another matter with Zeng Huai. In recent years, the rampant water bandits along the southern coast have become a disaster, especially after the sea ban was lifted three years ago, these bandits have intensified their efforts to burn, kill, and loot. As a result, the status of the Yue Shui Division has become particularly important. Half a month ago, the former Fujian-Yue Marine Division Chief Soldier retired as an old man, and Zhu Yunxuan wanted to transfer Dingyuan Hou He Huailing to Fujian and Guangdong to take over the position of the Marine Division Chief Soldier.

Zeng Huai thought for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Marquis Dingyuan has been guarding the pass for many years. Now that the barbarians in the north have leveled off, it's okay to transfer him to the south. It's just that he doesn't have experience as a navy leader, so I'm afraid something will go wrong."

Zhu Yunxuan shook his head: "That's fine. Marquis Dingyuan is an all-rounder, even if he has no experience, I believe he can adapt quickly."

"Your Majesty has an idea, and the old minister has no opinion."

Liang Zhen interjected again: "Your Majesty really trusts that Dingyuan Marquis, and even the Minyue Navy wants to hand over to him."

Zhu Yunxuan glanced at him coldly: "What does King Zhao think? Or does King Zhao have a better candidate?"

"Your Majesty has the final say," Liang Zhen let out a low laugh, "I have no objection, but this is the candidate to take over as the commander-in-chief..."

Zhu Yunxuan said: "Marquis Dingyuan and I have recommended Ding Yang, the current deputy commander-in-chief of Qiguan, who is brave and brave, and has great courage. "

"Ding Yang?" Liang Zhen narrowed his eyes lightly, "A candidate recommended by Duke Dingyuan?"

"Is something wrong?"

"This minister thinks that this new commander-in-chief in Guanguan should be dispatched from Beijing. If you want the minister, Xu Sen, the deputy commander-in-chief of the southern camp, can do it."

Zhu Yunxuan lowered his voice: "Why do you have to be dispatched from Beijing? Ding Yang has been leading troops in Qiguan for many years, and no one knows the situation there better than him."

Liang Zhen disagreed: "I remember that when Marquis Dingyuan led his troops to expedition to Beiyi, it was because this Deputy Chief Ding was greedy for merit and almost made a big mistake and lost tens of thousands of our troops. , the merits and demerits are equal, and such a person should not be the coach."

Zeng Huai argued for it: "That's all old and old. The old minister heard that it was also the deputy chief soldier Ding who gave a good plan, and my Dayan army was able to sweep the entire Beiyi in a short period of time."

"That's why I said, merits and demerits are equal," Liang Zhen raised his eyebrows, "In the past, Dingyuan Hou could still suppress him. If he becomes the head coach, what if he encounters something hot and just wants to be greedy for merit? The pass is the most important checkpoint in the northwest of Dayan, can you really feel at ease in the hands of such a person?"

Zeng Huai disagreed and said: "The person mentioned by King Zhao is even more inappropriate. Although Xu Sen is the deputy commander of the Jingnan Camp, he has never been on the battlefield. Such a general who has no experience and only knows how to talk about soldiers is transferred to the border. What's the use?"

"I am afraid that Zeng Ge can't even talk about troops on paper. This king thinks that Zeng Ge should not take it for granted," Liang Zhen smiled contemptuously, "The north has been completely settled, and it will not happen in a short time. If there is another war, as long as you can defend the level, even if you don’t know how to charge into battle, it’s fine. The biggest advantage of Xu Sen is his stability. It’s the most suitable for such a person to be sent to guard the level. Besides, what if he has no experience? Since Dingyuan Houneng Going to lead the navy, Vice President Xu can naturally go to guard the border."

Being scorned by Liang Zhen, Zeng Huai's face was a little ugly, and his tone was a little stiff: "King Zhao insists on transferring people from Beijing to Qiguan, what is the heart of it?"

No one knows that Liang Zhen was born in the Jingnan Camp. Even though he has already resigned from the post of the chief soldier of the Jingnan Camp, he is in charge of the defense of the entire Gyeonggi, including the Liangjing Camp, the Jingwei Army and the Imperial Guard Army. A total of about twenty-five Wan's soldiers and horses are all under his unified command, and the chief soldier and two deputy chief soldiers of the Jingnan Camp are his confidants. All the troops and horses in the world are under control?

Liang Zhen didn't answer, and looked at Zhu Yunxuan, who was also hesitant: "Does Your Majesty also think that this minister has ulterior motives?"

Zhu Yunxuan asked him coldly, "Don't you have it?"

Liang Zhen smiled and shook his head: "Of course I don't have it, I'm all for His Majesty's sake."

Zhu Yunxuan looked at him calmly, trying to distinguish the authenticity of what he said from the expression on his face, Zeng Huai suddenly said: "Since King Zhao said that he has no other intentions and is only thinking of His Majesty, why don't he take it out? Come back with sincerity, return the military talisman, and return the military power in your hands to Your Majesty."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the imperial study became more and more strange.

Zhu Yunxuan was silent, as if acquiescing to Zeng Huai's proposal, just waiting for Liang Zhen's answer.

Liang Zhen looked at him with a half-smile, "Your Majesty thinks the same way?"

Zeng Huai continued: "Since the founding of the dynasty, the military and horses of Gyeonggi have always been ordered by the emperor of the current dynasty. Before, the emperor was seriously ill, so he entrusted this important task to King Zhao. Now that His Majesty has ascended the throne, King Zhao should also take this military power. It's returned."

Liang Zhen sneered: "People say that a cup of wine will release military power, but now His Majesty is in debt for a cup of tea, so he wants to get the things back."

Zeng Huai suddenly changed his face: "You are presumptuous—!"

Liang Zhen was stunned, ignored him, and looked at Zhu Yunxuan: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Zhu Yunxuan didn't answer, but looked back at him with frosty eyes, and Liang Zhen said again: "I have something to say, and I want to tell your majesty alone."

Then Zeng Huai had to say more, but Zhu Yunxuan frowned and interrupted him: "Teacher, go back first, and we will discuss the candidate for the new commander of Guanguan tomorrow morning."

"His Majesty!"

"I have a number in my mind."

Zeng Huai's eyes showed concern, his eyes circled back and forth between Zhu Yunxuan and Liang Zhen, and he gritted his teeth and retreated.

The palace servants who were serving were thrown back together, and there were only the two of them left in the hall. Zhu Yunxuan said coldly, "If King Zhao has anything to say, just say it."

"Your Majesty really wants to take back military power?"

"Will you give it if I want it?"

The four eyes met each other, and each other's eyes were full of vigilance and speculation. After a long while, Liang Zhen sighed: "Your Majesty, you guard the country and the minister guards you, isn't that bad?"

Zhu Yunxuan was unmoved: "I don't want to be a puppet emperor, and King Zhao insists on not surrendering military power. Is he greedy for power or does he want to coerce the emperor to make the princes?"

"Your Majesty, do you believe in a minister?" Liang Zhen suddenly asked him.

Zhu Yunxuan was slightly startled, seemed hesitant, and looked away.

Liang Zhen shook his head: "You trust that Marquis Dingyuan so much, but you don't want to trust the minister. It really makes the minister very sad."

"Marquis Dingyuan can open up territory for me, what can you do? What is there for me to believe in you?"

Liang Zhen murmured in a low voice: "If you don't believe in the minister, the minister will not dare to believe you either."

Zhu Yunxuan's face sank: "What does King Zhao mean by saying this?"

"Your Majesty doesn't believe in the minister. Maybe he still thinks that he will kill the minister one day. The minister must keep something to save his life. If the minister obediently hand over the military power to you now, the minister will probably become a prisoner of that order if it doesn't pass today," Liang Zhen said. While talking, he walked forward, bullying Zhu Yunxuan step by step, and finally stopped at an inch away from him, leaning forward, his breathing almost blended together, "Your Majesty, do you want to kill the minister?"

Zhu Yunxuan didn't want to appear too flustered, so he didn't step back, but looked at Liang Zhen coldly: "Can I kill you?"

"You want to kill the minister." Liang Zhen affirmed.

Zhu Yunxuan didn't say anything, it was also a default.

Does he want to kill Liang Zhen? He must be thinking, he is just crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and he will kill the man in front of him. He is now the master of the world, who can persecute him? Who dares to force him? Liang Zhen, why is he? !

"Since Your Majesty doesn't believe in your ministers and wants to kill them, that minister would rather be a traitor or a scumbag who will give His Majesty a headache. If His Majesty wants to return to military power, then it will depend on His Majesty's ability to do so. If His Majesty can really kill a minister, the minister will die. If you do, you will die, or, your Majesty can change your way." The last sentence almost murmured in Zhu Yunxuan's ear, "Your Majesty will marry a minister and tell the world, and the minister will return the military power to His Majesty as a betrothal gift. ."

"Ridiculous! Do you really think I can't kill you?!"

Liang Zhen let out an inexplicable low laugh: "At least now, His Majesty can't kill him. As for the future... it will be long in Japan, and the minister will wait for His Majesty."
