"The three of them are all talented people. According to what I see, Zheng Jia can be appointed as the deputy general first, and Chai Hu and Wang Rong can be used separately."

Last night He Yun had a careful discussion with Lu Chuanzai who came to the General's Mansion, and he still thinks that Zheng Jia is most suitable for the position of Lieutenant General of the Light Armor.

The emperor hesitated and asked, "What did He Qing say was the name of that captain?"

He Yun felt strange, Xie Xuan also focused on asking Zheng Jia's name yesterday, but he didn't take it seriously.From what I saw today, could there be something wrong with the name?Answer: "Zheng Jia, Xingyang Zheng, Tiangan Jia."

The civil servants standing on the right seemed to have breathed in unison, and He Yun looked over to them.Gongsun Ren came out and said, "It doesn't match the etiquette to have 'jia' in your name."

Do you dare to hate the name?He Yun understood.

"Since the founding of the dynasty, the people have mostly avoided their rulers and their superiors, but not their reputations. Why should Sir Shaobao worry?"

"Avoiding the emperor is called etiquette, and avoiding suspicion is called virtue. It has always been like this, and it is not easy to break."

In terms of etiquette and morality, military officers, civilians and officials have different opinions, and young and old people have different opinions, so it is useless to say more.He Yun could only retort as kindly as possible: "Your Excellency also said that avoiding suspicion is called an act rather than a ritual. Today's military is employing people, and Zheng Jia stands out again. If you lose talents for this, the loss outweighs the gain." gone?"

"The general's words are inappropriate. In recent years, there have been many turmoil in the Great Wei. Although they have passed through smoothly, we should pay more attention to what should be avoided."

As soon as Gongsun Ren said these words, several ministers immediately echoed them.

One person said: "The general said that the three are all virtuous talents. If Zheng Jia is left alone and there are two others, it is better to choose the best. How can the gain outweigh the loss?"

He Yun was speechless and was about to refute, only to hear Xie Xuan beside him reply in a lukewarm way: "With 'Jia' in your name, you can't take a lieutenant lightly; with 'Ren' in your name, isn't it human?"

He Yun got stuck in his throat and almost choked himself, turned his head and looked at Xie Xuan in surprise.The latter actually blinked at him, looking indifferent.

Normal people could recognize who this sentence was talking about, and the person who had just agreed with Gongsun Ren knew that he was not underestimated, so he consciously kept silent.Gongsun Ren himself stood there, his face flushed a little.

This is the first time that the prince never embarrasses others in front of others.

No one answered for a while, so Xie Xuan had no choice but to stand up and say: "It's not a ritual to think of names, so it's okay to talk about it on weekdays, but the position of Lieutenant General of the Light Armor has been vacant for too long, and there is really no delay. Outstanding, he is the best candidate, I don’t think it’s wise to misjudge the talents because of the so-called reputation. Of course,”

He glanced at the right side of the hall intentionally or unintentionally, "This matter is related to the Central Wujia, and it should be decided by the general and His Majesty together, and no one else needs to intervene."

This is so straightforward, it is clearly not Xie Xuan's usual style, but the deterrent effect that should be there is already in place.

The emperor smiled and said: "If the general thinks it is feasible, I have no objection."

On the surface, this sentence is to respect He Yun's opinion, but to be honest, isn't it just throwing the pot away?

"I think Zheng Jia is useful." Wan Guo pressed his body, not cowardly.

"Can you guarantee it, General?" Gongyi Yu finally spoke quietly.

"I dare not, Master Zhangyu." He Yun turned around, "Nothing in this world can be guaranteed, I don't have the guts. If Master Zhangyu dares to guarantee it, you can recommend someone other than Zheng Jia, I have no opinion."

Gongyi Yu squinted his eyes, knowing that what He Yun said inside and outside was trying to suppress Tao Jiang's matter, so he smiled and turned to the emperor: "Just ask casually, I have no objection."

The emperor didn't say much, but asked, "In this case, what do you plan to do with the other two talents?"

"Wuhuo has been an empty city since it was conquered. It needs one person to garrison it. This is what I'm going to do next. As for the other one, if he stays in the army, he will have a chance to make meritorious service."

The emperor nodded in agreement, and the matter was over.

There were a lot of things going on in the court recently, and the topic of the people turned to the construction of the altar. They all sighed and felt that it was a pity that the three-month project was wasted.

Xie Xuan suddenly asked: "I heard that the Shenji Battalion has been manufacturing new weapons in the past few months, how is the progress?"

This sentence attracted the attention of everyone present. When the prince asked this question, he clearly meant to oppose the rebuilding of the altar.

He Yun glanced at him, and replied: "There is a sample, which is a light firearm. There is also a blueprint of a new type of warship, which has been delivered to the commander."

"The sample is out? Has the general tried it?"

"I've tried it. It's very powerful, and it's easy to shoot and kill ferocious beasts. Compared with the firearms used in the past, the biggest advantage is that it is light, and each soldier can be equipped with one tube."

"This is really good news." Xie turned around and said, "Since this is the case, I suggest to manufacture in batches and put some of them into use first. If it is in hand, then increase the batch."

The emperor asked bluntly: "What does the lord mean, that the rebuilding of the altar will not be discussed?"

Xie Xuan was even more straightforward: "I am indeed opposed to the construction of an altar."

The air froze for a moment.

This prince has been in prison for half a year, how could he pick some unkind words when he comes out?Changed your temper?

The ministers stayed out of the matter one after another, and only the first-rank officials dared to speak at this time.Sure enough, Gongyi Yu sized Xie Xuan up and said, "The altar was blown up in front of the people. If we don't repair it quickly, we will inevitably lose the prestige of the imperial court."

"I'm afraid the master didn't hear what the king said. If the king was here six months ago, he would have opposed the construction of the altar, and it has nothing to do with whether it is rebuilt or not."

Su Xiang probably wanted to ease the atmosphere, and said gently: "The prince has reasons for objecting, why don't you come and listen."

When Xie Xuan saw Su Xiang open his mouth, he was obviously more polite, bowed slightly to Su Xiang, and gave him a smile that made people feel refreshed.

He was handsome, and his smile was so good-looking. The bewildered people finally put their hearts back into their stomachs, thinking that they would hear something good and bad next.Unexpectedly, Xie Xuan straightened up, and only asked back: "The lining is not strong, what face do you need?"

In short, don't slap a swollen face to pretend to be fat.

Naturally, this question was not asked by Prime Minister Su, who was asked clearly.

He Yun quietly observed from the side, seeing that the emperor's expression was only momentarily uneasy, he immediately recovered his expression, and said: "My lord's words are not unreasonable. Now that the national strength is insufficient, it is time to strengthen the army. Since the altar has been bombed Perhaps this is God’s will. In my opinion, let’s first allocate funds for the production of armaments.”

Xie turned around, smiled and bowed, "Your Majesty is wise."

This court meeting made people nervous, and every time they felt that there was going to be a conflict, some people gave in and managed to save the day.

It was finally over, and the emperor didn't know what it meant, so he said to Xie Xuan: "An'er misses the prince, it's okay to go to the palace to see him."

All the adults had different thoughts in their hearts, and they left the battlefield as if fleeing.

Only Gongyi Yu was left walking slowly, looking for something to say: "My lord seems to be a different person today, what's wrong?"

Xie Xuan became more patient at this time, stopped and replied: "During the past two years, the king himself has forgotten that besides the prince, there is also the word 'regent'. If the master doesn't remember, today This king just wanted to remind you."

The regent acts on behalf of the emperor.Separation of powers and governance is for the public.

How could Gongyi Yu think that Xie Xuan was so bold, and said in surprise: "My lord always speaks frankly today, please be careful with your words."

"My lord, this regent was conferred on me by the previous emperor, and all the ministers also called it that way on weekdays. Why be careful?"

Gongyi Yu was speechless for a while, Xie Xuan didn't bother to waste words with him anymore, he pulled He Yun and strode out of the palace gate.

He Yun breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and said in a low voice, "You told me to bear it back then, why did I become a blockbuster first this time?"

Xie Xuan pulled him through the first palace wall, and asked with a smile, "Scared?"

"It was a little bit at first, but Su Xiang once said a word to me." He Yun walked forward, turned sideways to Xie Xuan, and paused, "Why didn't you ask me what I said?"

Of course Xie Xuan cooperated: "What are you talking about?"

"He said that the ministers are all looking for advantages and avoiding disadvantages. For us, supporting is harmful and stepping on is beneficial."

"Su Xiang told you this, it is really intentional." Xie Xuan was a little surprised by this.

"So I guess, you didn't make it for the emperor and Gongyi Yu just now, but for other people. You want to scare them so that they don't dare to stand in line again, right?"

Xie Xuan looked at him with a smile: "That's very right."

"Why do you sound like coaxing a child?" He Yun stepped back and walked side by side with him, muttering, but his face was full of joy.

"There is another important reason."

"What's the reason?"

"I asked Feng Yi to tell you, did you forget?"

He Yun thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt a gust of spring breeze, and his whole face bloomed: "You mean, come back and help me vent my anger?"

"Yeah." Xie Xuan's tone rose, "Are you happy?"

More than just cool?It's so beautiful!Being in love is so wonderful!

The two went out of the palace gate and boarded the sedan chair, He Yun was still giggling.

He should have had a lot of worries, such as whether it was a good thing for Xie Xuan to shut up the courtiers in a few words, such as how obvious Xie Xuan's bias was towards him, such as what the emperor's unhappiness at that moment meant.

But at this moment, all he thought about was: Never mind him!There is brother Zichen!What am I afraid of?

No, it's not Brother Zichen, it's Zichen...

He Yun's thoughts turned here, revealing a tangled expression.

It's weird to be called Big Brother, but I'm really not used to it when I change my name to Zichen, it's too embarrassing.

Xie Xuan watched his expression change from a naive smile to a tangled one, thinking it was funny, and just about to ask, he heard a crisp "Brother Xuan!" from outside the sedan chair.

He Yun's thoughts were also pulled back by this sound, and he glanced at the sedan chair curtain in some confusion.

Xie Xuan let go of his hand, opened the car curtain and saw a round figure running out of the palace gate, shaking his hands while running and shouting: "Brother Xuan! Brother Xuan!"

The two father-in-laws chased after him tremblingly: "Your Highness, please slow down! Oops, let this servant hug you!"

"It's An'er." Xie Xuan turned around and said, then lifted the curtain and got out of the sedan chair, opened his hands and lifted Xie An who had rushed over, swung him round, and asked with a smile: "Why is An'er here?"

Xie An giggled and said, "An'er wants to turn to brother!"

Xie Xuan's eyes fell on the two father-in-laws, apparently asking questions.One of them immediately replied: "His Royal Highness King Jing wanted to go out of the palace to play, so His Majesty ordered to send it to you, my lord."

"How long?" Xie Xuan hugged Xie An upwards, the child is about to grow another year, and he has gained a lot of weight in advance.

"Your Majesty ordered, His Royal Highness King Kyung missed the lord early on, so it doesn't hurt to stay in your residence for a few more days."

"understood."

Xie Xuan hugged Xie An into the sedan chair, and saw He Yun staring at him with his chin resting on his shoulders, and muttered in a voice that was almost talking to himself: "Brother Xuan?"

The author has something to say:

The sentence Xie Xuan said, "Isn't it a human being with 'ren' in the name?" is borrowed from Han Yu's "Bi Debate"

The plot here is based on the taboo customs of the Chinese people.
