Chapter 75 Promoting Su Zhenting
The first issue of Li Chen's morning court was to push Su Zhenting to the front desk.
Because it was involved in the early rebellion case, Su Zhenting was beaten to the end by the Emperor of the Great Street. Although he was still holding the hereditary title of General and Champion King, both had false titles and no real power.
At present, Li Chen urgently needs to hire people, not to mention a handsome talent like Su Zhenting who has unparalleled prestige and appeal in the army, so he cannot let it go.
This issue was thrown out, which naturally aroused strong opposition from the civil servant group.
"Your Highness, I have objections."
Hu Xianpi, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, stood up.
Teng Huaiyi lost his horse, and the one who had the most hope to succeed was him, the second-in-commander of the Ministry of War.
If Su Zhenting succeeded in airborne, with Su Zhenting's prestige, he would never have imagined climbing to the position of Minister of War in his entire life.
"General Su is a prince of a different surname, with a superb official position, and the Minister of War is only a second-rank official. Isn't this a mess of the court? Please think twice."
Hu Xianpi was obviously a smart person. He knew that Su Zhenting was more than enough to hold this position in terms of ability and qualifications. If he took a stubborn position in this regard, it would only arouse the prince's dissatisfaction and the counterattack of the general group. On the contrary, on the grounds that Su Zhenting's rank was too high, no one could say that his opinion was wrong.
Sure enough, after Hu Xianpi's words came to the ground, Wang Tenghuan immediately bowed and said, "Mr. Hu's words are reasonable. In all dynasties, any official position is linked to rank, so that it can be orderly and orderly. If you condemn the second-rank Shangshu position as a super-ranked General Su, it is indeed inconsistent with reason. Please think twice."
As soon as Wang Tenghuan, the second-ranked person in the cabinet, spoke, the civil servant group immediately had a backbone, and they all advised: "Please think twice."
Looking at the civil servant group with opposition, Li Chen had a blank expression on his face.
He understood why, in the feudal era, apart from the founding emperors, most of the descendants of the emperors needed to play games with court officials.
If the emperor's proposal is opposed by all court officials, even the emperor will not be able to kill all those who oppose it and then force his orders to advance.
What's more, I am just the prince now.
When the ministers are combined, they have the strength to make him retreat.
Looking at Zhao Xuanji who had never said anything, Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He knew that all this seemed to have nothing to do with Zhao Xuanji, but in fact it was all centered around Zhao Xuanji. This old fox was his biggest opponent in the court.
As if he felt Li Chen's gaze, Zhao Xuanji looked up slightly at Li Chen, then smiled humbly, and continued to lower his head without saying anything.
The first political game has begun. Prince, you want to hold an early court. So, as you wish, this morning court will be held, but what if it is opened?
Without anyone to support you, you are just a clown who stands a little higher.
If the prince can't even take the first move that he didn't say even, then don't humiliate himself.
"This matter is reasonable, but this palace is not very thoughtful."
As soon as Li Chen said this, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.
Especially Hu Xianpi and Wang Tenghuan, their expressions were as if they had seen something incredible. They had another feeling of feeling of being light and ineffective when they had a punch, but they hit the cotton, which made them almost vomit blood.
Even Zhao Xuanji was a little surprised.
No one expected that Li Chen would admit defeat so easily?
But then Li Chen's words caused even greater turmoil.
"Since the position of Minister of War is not in line with General Su's rank, he will be promoted to General Su as the Grand Governor of the Five Army Governor's Office, and will be promoted to the first-ranking position, to coordinate the world's troops, and to actually control the capital, the southern Zhili, and the Shuntian Prefecture, the left, right, front, back, and middle of the Five Army, a total of 300,000 elite troops."
