The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 862
[Chapter 862 The officials leaving]
At this moment, a burst of footsteps came.
Everyone turned their heads subconsciously and saw that the person standing in front of them was His Highness Prince Kang whom they were waiting for.
King Kang looked at them, looked around, as if he didn’t know anything, and said in confusion: “What happened again? What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you that the affairs of the Sixth Division will be resolved in a month at most?” There will be results.
Even if you press me now, there is nothing I can do.”
All the officials were silent.
Because they all guessed a certain possibility.
Even so, seeing King Kang’s reaction, it seemed that it had nothing to do with this matter.
Therefore, they were all hesitant, not knowing whether to stay or go.
Fortunately, a director of the Ministry of Rites stood up, looked at King Kang, bowed, and said, “Your Highness, are the ministers gathered here not for the six ministries, but for the Shenji camp?”
King Kang heard this. , frowned slightly, and asked: “Shenji Camp? What’s wrong with the Shenji Camp? Could it be that Fang Xiu, the thief, can’t stand his ambition anymore?”
The head of the Rites Department shook his head and replied: ” That’s not true. Half of the people from the Shenji Battalion went north. The news I received seemed to be that there was something strange happening in the grassland tribes.”
“Is there such a thing?”
King Kang frowned even more. There was a vague look of anger on his face, and he said coldly: “A year ago, the Duke of Guizhou of the Southwest Road colluded with the Qiyan tribe, and was defeated by our King of Dachu in one blow. The Duke of Guizhou also died to apologize. “
The Qiyan Ministry and the imperial court have an agreement not to invade our country within fifty years!
Have they forgotten it in just one year?”
Everyone’s expressions changed when they heard these angry words. There have been some changes.
His Highness Prince Kang’s reaction was abnormal!
If you hear this news, your first reaction should be surprise first, then surprise, then doubt, then doubt, then confusion, and after confusion, then anger.
However, when His Highness King Kang heard the news, he didn’t say anything and first attacked the Qiyan Department.
This is not normal!
Judging from the performance of His Highness Prince Kang, it seems that in all likelihood, His Highness Prince Kang has already learned the news in advance.
Why did His Highness Prince Kang know this news in advance?
Everyone understands this very well.
If it were placed in the past, it could also be explained that His Royal Highness Prince Kang was well-informed.
However, nowadays, whether it is the Secret Service, the eunuchs in the palace, the guarding eunuchs in various places, or the spies, scouts, and craftsmen of Prince Kang’s palace, they are all not as good as before.
Otherwise, he would not listen to His Highness Prince Kang.
How could His Highness Prince Kang know this in advance before these people?
There is only one possibility that
His Highness Prince Kang was also involved in this matter!
Since His Highness Prince Kang is involved, there is no need to say which part he is involved in.
Although Prince Kang’s Mansion does not have any soldiers, it has a certain influence among the royal family.
Whether it is the King of Dai, the King of Liang, or the King of Shu who is far away in Liangchuan Road, they all have certain connections with His Royal Highness King Kang.
These vassal kings all have a common characteristic, that is, they have stayed in the vassal territory for several generations, are deeply rooted, and have a certain degree of influence in the local area. They want to gather a force, privately forge weapons, and It’s not impossible.
With the inside and outside working together, it was inevitable that
everyone would think of this, and their expressions would become even more ugly.
Because they understand in their hearts.
These vassal kings are no better than the Duke of Guizhou.
Although the Duke of Guizhou has elite soldiers and generals, it is really far away from Kyoto.
Even if we march with all our strength, it will take at least a month to reach Kyoto Prefecture.
It is almost impossible, or rather difficult, to form an encirclement with the grassland Qiyan tribe in the north.
Only when both sides have gained certain advantages will they be in an unstoppable situation.
However, these feudal kings are different. Although their fiefdoms are not close to Kyoto Prefecture, they are much closer than the Southwest Road.
Everyone was silent, and King Kang said to himself: “Does your father know about this matter?”
No one answered, and a few people even showed dissatisfaction. They did not look at King Kang, and there was a vague expression in their eyebrows. There was a look of disdain.
Seeing this scene, the head of the Ministry of Rites stood up and replied: “When I return to His Royal Highness King Kang, there is no news from the Ministry of War, so your Majesty and the elders should not know about it.
As for the Shenji Camp.”
That’s it .
, paused, and then said: “Everyone in the Shenji Camp is taking orders from Xin Anbu, and they are all taking orders from the fawning minister Fang Xiu. Even the Ministry of War can’t interfere with their transfer.
But the ministers have already reported it to His Majesty and the Cabinet .
The elders reported it.
I think the memorial has been sent to the palace, and your majesty and the elders have already read it.”
King Kang nodded and said only one sentence: “That’s very good.”
Then there was no movement.
At this time, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice: “Your Highness, I still have something to do, so I will not stay. I will leave first.”
After saying this, he did not salute or wait for King Kang’s reply. , and actually walked out like this, without leaving any face to King Kang.
The other people were stunned for a moment when they saw this scene.
However, after all, he is the Right Minister, and his rank is higher than most of the people present, so he is still a bit arrogant.
With a leader in charge, the other officials all stood up one after another, bowed and left.
Especially people from the Ministry of Industry.
According to common sense, in this battle between the Xin’an Marquis Mansion and Prince Kang’s Mansion, among the six ministries, the Ministry of Industry was the most severely damaged.
The entire Ministry of Works Yamen from top to bottom was occupied by people from Xin’anhou.
All we have to do is tear down the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry and replace it with the four characters “Xin’an Houfu”.
They should be the ones who support King Kang the most, because they have no other choice but to support King Kang.
However, even so, they were still very determined to leave, let alone other people.
Some people even said something to King Kang before leaving, but many people just left without saying a word.
They then used practical actions to show that they knew what was going on.
At the same time, they firmly believe that no matter what happens, it should be resolved within the framework of the imperial court. No matter what happens, it will not be the steppe tribes’ turn to intervene.
In their eyes, it was barbarians and a barbarian land.
The most important thing is that those people are cruel and cruel. If they are allowed to take over the Central Plains, the consequences will be disastrous!
Therefore, in just a short time of burning incense, King Kang was the only one left in the entire Prince Kang’s Mansion. He stood alone, looking at the backs of everyone leaving with cold eyes, silently
