C123 Prime minister

After the great battle, Zhao Chen's and Zheyue Ru's birth date was sent to the Venerate Heavens Sect!

The officials of the Venerate Heavens Sect would carefully calculate and come up with the auspicious day for the grand marriage!

On the third day of the second month, Zhao Chen went to court! This was the first time he was going to court after the new year!

Sitting on the throne, Zhao Chen kept yawning. On the other hand, Zhao Chen was holding onto a small piece of wood, holding onto a wooden knife, casually carving on it!

"If you have anything to say, you can start now. If you have nothing to do, then leave the court!" Lin Bao stood up and shouted.

"Your Majesty, this humble subject has an important matter to attend to!" Just as Lin Bao finished speaking, Han Ping stood out and said.

"What is it?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your majesty, ever since Li Gang was demoted, he has always been humble in the court! Master Fold Zhe Keqiu was originally a Privy Envoys, he protected the Emperor from the Tongguan and supported him to ascend the throne. Han Ping said.

"Milords, what do you think?" Zhao Chen said.

"This humble subject also believes that the Master Fold can be the Prime Minister!" Wei Ming stood out and said.

"This humble subject also agrees that the Master Fold is the Prime Minister!" Xue Rui said.

"The position of Prime Minister must belong to the Master Fold!"

"Other than the Master Fold, no one else is allowed to be Prime Minister!"

"Master Fold must be the Prime Minister!"

… ….

One minister after another stood up and said.

Until the end, with the exception of Zhe Keqiu and Zhe Yanwen, all the other ministers had stood forward.

Zhao Chen laughed and said: "Since that is the case, we shall issue an imperial decree appointing the Master Fold as the Prime Minister!"

"This humble subject thanks Your Majesty!" Zhe Keqiu said as he knelt on the ground.

"Please quickly stand, my beloved lady!" From now on, I will hand over all the matters of the country to you! "You must not slack off. You must be diligent and diligent in handling national affairs!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, rest assured! Even though this Song Dynasty is His Majesty's, he's still mine, Zhe Keqiu's! I, Zhe Keqiu, naturally will not waste my time on national affairs! " Zhe Keqiu laughed loudly.

His laughter was filled with pride and excitement! He was now the Prime Minister, truly above everyone else! Furthermore, he was different from that trash, Li Gang, as he possessed true power! No one from the Middle Han Area or the officials of the Chuan Shu dared to oppose him, and no one from the imperial court dared to oppose him either! He still had over a hundred thousand men left, and that was enough to ensure his status! Moreover, the Prime Minister was only the first step in fulfilling his wish! He felt that he would have this country in his hands sooner or later!

"Your majesty, after Master Fold becomes the Prime Minister, there will be no one holding the position of Privy Envoys. I think General Crop Zhe Yanwen can become the Prime Minister!" At this time, Han Ping stood out again and said.

"This..." Zhao Chen seemed to reveal a hesitating expression!

"Your majesty, this humble subject also approves of Master Zhe Yanwen becoming the Privy Envoys!" Wei Ming said.

"This humble subject also thinks that Master Zhe Yanwen can become the Privy Envoys!" Xue Rui said.

"This humble subject agrees!"

"This humble subject also feels that only Master Zhe Yanwen can assume the position of Privy Envoys!"

"This humble subject agrees!"

… ….

The officials stood up one by one, as if they had already agreed on it beforehand, and supported Zhe Yanwen to be the Privy Envoys!

According to the political system of the Song Dynasty, the Prime Minister was the head of the civil service and had control over the political affairs of the country! However, the Prime Minister had no right to interfere with the military affairs, while the Privy Envoys was in charge of managing the military affairs of the entire country! The Prime Minister and the Privy Envoys being one man, one man, one warrior, were the two most powerful positions in the Great Song Dynasty! Generally speaking, the relationship between the Prime Minister and Privy Envoys was not very good! Since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, there has been an open rivalry and covert warfare between the Prime Minister and the Privy Envoys! When the Song Dynasty was first established, its power was greater! When Zhao Pu became Prime Minister, the Prime Minister's power surpassed Privy Envoys's! From then on, the authority of the Prime Minister exceeded that of the Privy Envoys!

But no matter what, the relationship between the two was not harmonious, and everyone knew it!

But today, during Zhao Chen's reign, the Prime Minister and Privy Envoys had actually become father and son! His father was the head of the civil service in name, while his son was in charge of the entire country's military! This was something that had never happened before in the history of the Song Dynasty!

"Since that's the case, then let Zhe Yanwen take over as the Privy Envoys!" Zhao Chen said indifferently.

"Congratulations General Crop!"

"Congratulations General Crop!"

"I will need your help from now on!"

Immediately, countless of officials came in front of Zhe Yanwen to congratulate him!

Zhe Yanwen laughed out loud. He was extremely excited in his heart! Previously, he was only the Prefect of Middle Han Area, but now, he had become a Privy Envoys. His status had instantly risen by several folds, and his mood was naturally also very good!

Then Zhe Keqiu would also be in a very good mood! Regardless of whether it was the Privy Envoys or the Prime Minister, as long as he, Zhe Keqiu, was in the imperial court, he would be number one among all the officials! But after all, the Prime Minister was a head taller than the Privy Envoys, so it was even more reasonable!

"If there is nothing else, let's disperse!" Zhao Chen said.

There were no longer any court officials below, so Zhao Chen immediately left the Supreme Harmony Hall under the protection of a few guards.

After Zhao Chen left, none of the officials from Supreme Harmony Hall left!

"Let's continue discussing national affairs!" Zhe Keqiu looked at the surrounding officials, and revealed a satisfied expression, and said!

With Zhao Chen around, Zhe Keqiu did not discuss about national affairs! Now that Zhao Chen was no longer around, he and a group of officials were discussing national affairs! His heart was filled with disdain towards Zhao Chen, he simply did not want Zhao Chen to participate in national affairs!

After a full two hours, Zhe Keqiu and Zhe Yanwen finally led the group of officials out of the Supreme Harmony Hall!

After that, they left the palace and came to their own homes. The officials also followed them to their own homes!

Right now, father and son, one was the Prime Minister, the other was the Privy Envoys. During this period of time, all the officials came up to flatter and flatter him. There was no need to mention it! The father and son, Zhe Keqiu and Zhe Yanwen, were also extremely useful!

In the afternoon, the sun was setting in the west!

It was February of the Lunar New Year, and much of the snow had already melted in the Imperial Palace. However, when the cold wind blew, the weather was still extremely cold!

Zhao Chen stood in his own chamber while Kang An stood behind him!

"Kang An, how many people in Managed are willing to serve us now?" Zhao Chen said.

"Right now, there are over seventy people willing to serve His Majesty! I have already added the words' Slaughtering Bandits' onto their backs! Your Majesty, don't worry. They are absolutely loyal to you! As long as Your Majesty wants it, they can come and die for you at any time! " Kang An said.

"Over seventy people? It's a little too little! " Zhao Chen gently frowned.

There were a total of more than ten thousand people in Managed, but there were only over seventy people loyal to Zhao Chen, the number was too little!

"Your Majesty, these seventy odd guards are not ordinary soldiers. Most of them are officers of the Academy Officer! The only people this humble official can get in touch with are these people! Only after confirming their thoughts can I find a way to recruit them! If they do not agree, this humble subject can only kill them! During this period of time, there have been three people who have died in my hands. This humble one no longer dares to recruit any more, afraid that Zhe Keqiu, the traitor, will find out! " Kang An said.

"You did well!" You said that most of the seventy odd people are Academy Officer officers! That's right! That's right! "If this really turns into chaos, the soldiers will definitely follow us with a wave of their arms!" Zhao Chen thought about it and said.

In the era of cold weapons, communication was unusually lagging behind. As long as their leader was willing to serve Zhao Chen, all the soldiers, other than those who were particularly loyal, would definitely follow their leader and start a fight, serving Zhao Chen!

"Your Majesty, aside from the Managed, I still have a few good friends here! "Those good friends of mine are already willing to serve His Majesty. They have already sworn an oath to kill the thief on their backs!" Kang An said again.

"I wonder what their positions are?" Zhao Chen said.

"There are deputy generals from outside the army, two deputy generals, and a Academy Officer who is guarding the north gate of Middle Han Area!" Kang An said.

"The Academy Officer guarding the north gate of the Middle Han Area?" Zhao Chen suddenly noticed these words!

"That's right. His name is Meng Jun, and he has agreed to serve His Majesty!" However, there are a total of three Academy Officer s at the northern city gate, and he is only one of them! " Kang An said.

"This is good enough! The position of the Academy Officer was low, but they had a lot of power! In the future, this person will be of great use to us! Kang An, I have to thank you! "

"Your Majesty, what are you saying? This humble subject is loyal to His Majesty, that is my duty! " Kang An anxiously said.

"When I ascend to the throne, I will never forget your contributions!" Furthermore, those who are willing to serve us in the Home Breaker, we will not forget their contributions! Tell them that everyone will be promoted by three levels on the day that I succeed! "I will not lie!" Zhao Chen said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Kang An was overjoyed, and said.

He had no other choice but to rely on Zhao Chen, but if he could get rich and become an official, then that was what he wished for! If the people he recruited who were loyal to Zhao Chen were to receive this news, they would definitely be extremely happy!
