On the second day, Yan Luan didn't go to court, and only asked Lu Tong to send someone to the court room to say that he had a minor illness and had to rest for a few days.
At noon, Chen Wenying and Yang Chao arrived.Lu Tong asked the boy to report in, Yan Luan came out, and let the two of them go to the study.
Chen Wenying took a sip of tea and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to pretend to be ill anymore."
Yan Luan said: "How can I pretend to be sick?"
Chen Wenying said: "When you first came back, you said you were recuperating and lived in the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a month. Now you are talking about illness, how can you have so many illnesses? There are so many things waiting for you to deal with, especially the Ministry of War, although before Xianlin is in charge, but he is only the left servant of the Ministry of War, and there are many things that cannot be decided without you, the minister."
Yan Luan said: "This is what I can't figure out the most. I am a civil servant. What do you want me to do as Minister of the Ministry of War?"
Yang Chao said with a smile: "Don't you know? During the month you were in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Ding Rubai said everywhere that you are a military genius, you use soldiers like a god, and you are responsible for more than half of the defeat of the Japanese pirates."
Yan Luan frowned and said, "Isn't Zimao talking nonsense? I was in his army, and at most I came up with a few ideas. Zimao's contribution to Pingwa is all due to him, who doesn't know?"
Chen Wenying said: "In short, you are now the Minister of the Ministry of War. You can't ignore it when you are in your position. The emperor didn't go to the court today, and he even issued an oral order. All the papers will be dealt with by the cabinet first. If there is anything that cannot be resolved, the cabinet will Directly report to the emperor. All urgent official affairs such as the six ministries, five temples and various supervisors and divisions will also be reported to you, as well as the military affairs of the whole country, which will be dispatched by you..."
Yan Luan said: "I am in control of the government and military power. In addition, Dongchang and Jinyiwei are my people. So if I want to usurp the throne, it is very easy for me. After I have planned everything, I can design a coup. The emperor is under house arrest. The three princes are all my students. I will support any one, just Chier. He is young and easy to control. I let this little emperor be a puppet for a few years, and then I can give myself a different surname Wang and add Jiuxi. In a few years, I will make three requests and three concessions with the civil and military officials. I will be able to stand on my own, anyway, there were Wang Mang, Cao Pi, Sima Shi..."
Both Chen Wenying and Yang Chao were dumbfounded, and Yang Chao hurriedly said, "Ling'an, I know that it doesn't matter what you say. But Yanhua and I still need our heads. If a word of these words gets out, We all have to be implicated."
Yan Luan said: "I'm afraid there are many people outside who say that."
Chen Wenying also said: "There are some, mainly the clan. Taizong's younger brothers Daijian Wang Zhaogui and Daisi Wang Zhaohuai, because of Taizong's grace, you know if they didn't become feudal vassals. Although they have not been very successful in Beijing these years, they are nephews in the mansion. In addition to some relatives and old friends, this force is not small. They were reprimanded by the emperor just after they said something in the court yesterday. The rest of them just talked behind their backs. After Xie Zihu became an official, who would dare to advance on the emperor? Your slander? Closer to home, will you enter the palace with us now?"
Yan Luan said: "Even if the emperor didn't go to court, it's impossible for all of you to disappear."
Yang Chao smiled wryly and said, "I see, but the emperor just said: 'Does Lord Yan know about this matter? Let Lord Yan come up with an opinion first, and then come back to me'."
Yan Luan sighed and said, "You two wait for me, I'll change clothes."
Yan Luan and others walked into the upper study room, and saw that most of the important officials from various ministries were here.When everyone saw Yan Luan, they saluted and congratulated Yan Luan, and Yan Luan responded one by one.Kou Yiqing finally smiled and said, "Now it's really not easy to see the Duke."
Yan Luan smiled, and said to a little eunuch next to him: "Go and inform me that I am coming, please see the emperor."
After a while, a young official dressed in regular five-pin uniform came from the direction of Hongde Hall.The man walked into the upper study room and said loudly to everyone: "My lords, the emperor said that from today onwards, the south study room will be used by the cabinet to handle government affairs. All memorials must be drafted by Mr. Yan before submitting to the emperor. My lords Please report any urgent business to Lord Yan first, and Lord Yan will decide to handle it." Then he walked in front of Yan Luan, knelt down and respectfully kowtowed three times, and said crisply: "Slave Lu Huaixin kowtowed to the master, congratulations on the new promotion of the master The joy of the Duke of the country."
Yan Luan thought he heard it wrong, so he said, "What did you call me?"
The young official knelt there, raised his head and said with a smile, "I am the master's slave, so of course I call you the master."
Yan Luan was startled, this young man with a face like a crown of jade, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, was actually the young man who drank and made fun of with Zhao Ying in Zhaoren Hall that day, because today he wore an official uniform and his temperament changed completely, so Yan Luan I didn't recognize it just now.Then he asked, "Who are you? What position do you hold?"
At this time, Yang Chao smiled and said, "Don't you recognize him? He is the second son of Lu Tong, the chief steward of your family. Secretary doctor."
Yan Luan nodded and said: "Mr. Lu, please get up. From now on, just call me the same as everyone else."
Lu Huaixin kowtowed again before getting up, and said: "My parents are both the master's slaves, so I was destined to be the master's slaves from birth. Just now, the slaves have brought a few father-in-laws to clean up the South study, the master went to have a look Bar."
Yan Luan thought to himself, no wonder the world likes to judge people by their appearances, this handsome young man is beautiful even if he kowtows, he calls himself a slave, so people not only don't think he is inferior, but only feel that he is humble and polite.
Yan Luan and others entered the main hall of the South Study Room, and said to everyone: "Everyone wait a moment, I will have a few words with the six ministers first."
Yan Luan, Chen Yanhua and others arrived at the second room of Nanshu's landlord, and they sat down.Chen Wenying said with a smile: "I didn't have time to say it in your mansion just now, we all prepared congratulatory gifts, just waiting for your treat, and congratulate you on being named Duke Ping of Qi."
Yan Luan smiled and said, "What's there to congratulate? People outside say how I, Qi Pinggong, got here. Do you think I don't know?"
Yang Chao said with a smile: "Yesterday, I just made a first-class Duke of the town, and now I am the chief assistant with the right to vote and add military power. How do you say such discouragement?"
Yan Luan said: "Everyone present here, except for Lu Langzhong, are all my old friends for more than ten years. I am not afraid to tell you that it is not what I want to be the Duke and the chief assistant."
Lu Guan said with a smile: "It's not what you want, but what we want. Think about it, if you change the chief assistant, they are fine, and I definitely won't be able to do it anymore."
Kou Yiqing also said: "That's right, Ling'an, there are always some quarrels between the previous cabinets and the six ministries. Only you and Yanhua are the ones who we sincerely support. If nothing else, just for our old friends, you do it. Isn't this chief assistant happy?"
Yan Luan smiled and said: "It's because I'm lucky to have you, otherwise I would be even more boring to be the first assistant." Then he said to Yang Chao: "By the way, Tingxi, was the title 'Qi Ping Gong' proposed by your Ministry of Rites? Although I can't understand the language, I can also see that the word "Qi Ping" is very inappropriate, but the plaque was ready and hung up so quickly."
Yang Chao said with a smile: "You don't have to be modest, who doesn't know you are so talented. This title was drawn up by the emperor himself, and the plaque was ordered by the emperor a month ago. You can't blame me."
