Chapter 976 Is there anyone who doesn't expect the good of Wei?

Shen Liuzhen used to go to court in winter and often coughed, but it's not winter yet.

Two days ago, I thought he was sick because of the shock of His Majesty's sudden death, but now how long has passed, he still looks like he is holding on.

And the coughing sound almost coughed out the lungs.

When talking in the hall of the court, the voice would have been amplified, but now Shen Liuzhen's violent cough suppressed the noisy voice, and everyone couldn't help but look at him.

Xie Yuan stood up straight, but looked at him with worried eyes, pursed his resolute lips, and resisted the urge to go over and check.

This is in the hall, everyone is watching, she said to herself in her heart.

Shen Liuzhen finally stopped speaking, let the handkerchief take a look, and seeing blood stains appeared on it again, so he quickly tightened the handkerchief and put it away.

At this time, I heard Dugu Liucheng, the master of the east, say something strange:
"Look at this look, it looks like it's about to be buried in the ground, and it's still a threat."

Shen Liuzhen lowered his eyes, smiled softly, and said lightly while stuffing the handkerchief into his sleeve:

"I, Shen Liuzhen, did not rely on force to threaten people. Lord Dugu, please hope that I will be healthy. My death will not do Wei Guo any good."

Dugu Liucheng was pissed off again, and said "you" without further ado.

Shi Yucaizhuang deliberately persuaded him with a smile in a friendly tone:
"Shen Shizhong, you are too greedy for power. Your health is the most important thing. Why don't you recuperate at home? Power is good, but you have to have your life."

Shen Liuzhen raised his eyes to look at him, smiled and asked:

"Am I greedy for power?"

Stared at by Shen Liuzhen's beautiful eyes, Shi Yucaizhuang felt a little contempt and ridicule, and suddenly felt a little guilty, and said:
"Isn't it?...No one objected to the crown prince's ascension to the throne. It is meritorious for Shen Shizhong to assist the late emperor, but since it has become like this...what's the big deal if you retire? You would rather mess up the Wei country than retreat. It's not because you are greedy for power. For what?"

Shen Liuzhen raised his head with a smile, looked at the carvings on the top of the hall, and said with a smile:

"If I were really greedy for power, I wouldn't be a servant now..."

Someone on the other side said coolly:

"Shen Shizhong's words are pretending to be confused. What's wrong with the servant? Since you, Shen Liuzhen, the position of the servant has replaced the prime minister... Are you not satisfied with this?"

Shen Liuzhen smiled sweetly, looked at the opposite person with sincere eyes, spread his sleeves and said:
"I have nothing to dissatisfy with. It's just that my salary and family wealth as a servant are not comparable to those of the Xianbei adults. As for the official position, it all depends on your care. You are willing to give me Shen Liuzhen a face. Otherwise, I can have another What kind of power? It’s just that when the time is right, it’s all about giving advice for the late emperor..."

The person on the other side blushed and fell silent.

Everyone is a sensible person, the so-called struggle for power is to seize profit.Everyone is fighting back and forth, not just for the pain of worrying, but also for the interests behind the power.

Shen Liuzhen really doesn't have much greed for land and family wealth.

He is not upright, but he is too "magnanimous".

He has never done such things as enclosing land and buying land. What he has is rewarded by the late emperor.

Even receiving gifts from others would be reported directly to the late emperor. Generally, the late emperor would go directly to the treasury and give him some as a reward later on.

There was a rumor that Shen Liuzhen had a relationship with the state treasury, and bribing him was equivalent to giving it to the first emperor.

It took a long time for them to know these things. Later, apart from normal human relations, no one dared to bribe Shen Liuzhen with large amounts of property anymore. If there is anything wrong, they might as well just go with their mouths.

Shen Liuzhen went on to say:

"Since everyone has doubts about His Majesty's appointment of me and Xie Yuan as auxiliary ministers, let's talk about it carefully today..."

He sighed deeply, with tears in his eyes, and said sadly:

"Although the first emperor passed away suddenly, his plans for Wei will not change suddenly. You are also veterans who have followed His Majesty for many years, so you naturally know what he wants."

Shen Liuzhen turned his sleeves suddenly, made a gesture of invitation, and said to Bu Liugu Chifeng opposite:
"Master West, what do you say?"

Bu Liugu Chifeng was suddenly named, a little flustered.

Because of the things that precious daughter did, he has long been isolated by the Xianbei nobles, and he was questioned towards the Han people whenever he spoke.

So he is going up to court now, and he will never speak if he can.

"Ask me what to do?" Bu Liugu Chifeng stared back in displeasure.

"Huh?...My lord, don't you know what the late emperor's great cause is?" Shen Liuzhen asked deliberately and simply, as if looking at an ignorant child.

Bu Liugu Chifeng couldn't hold back any longer, and said hastily:

"Why don't I know! Isn't it about enriching the country, strengthening the army, and unifying the world?!"

While talking, he stretched out his fingers excitedly, shaking the sleeves of his official uniform.

Shen Liuzhen nodded approvingly, stood up straight, clasped his hands, and said gracefully:
"I, Shen Liuzhen, have been with me for many years, and I am well aware of the late emperor's preferences in governing the country. In other words, he trusted me to continue to do as he requested.

You also said just now that I acted as the prime minister. After the death of the late emperor, it is strange to appoint a prime minister whom I trusted as the assistant minister? "

"Even if you are right! What about Xie Yuan?!" Shi Yucaizhuang suddenly asked, "There are so many people, why should it be her?!"

Xie Yuan, who had been silent all this time, turned his eyes sharply, glanced at Shiyu Caizhuang, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Since the death of Emperor Ulei, this Shiyu Wealth Manor has obviously become active, which is quite different from his previous appearance of only knowing how to raise concubines and fish in troubled waters.

Just underestimate him!

Shen Liuzhen stretched out his sleeves, widened his peach blossom eyes, his expression was as innocent as possible, and he said as a matter of course:
"Your Majesty wants to strengthen his army, so naturally he must start by recruiting more Han people. There are many Xianbei generals, but she is the only one who has strength and experience, can lead a mixed army of Hu and Han, and has good combat power!
Her central camp is what Wei's future army will look like.Can't you see that? "

Shen Liuzhen retracted his sleeves, and added impassionedly:
"For the future of the Wei Kingdom, if the country is to be rich and its soldiers are to be rich, it is natural that everyone's efforts are indispensable. But a rich country cannot do without me, Shen Liuzhen, and a strong army cannot do without her, Xie Yuan!"

Someone on the other side gave a disdainful "cut".

Shen Liuzhen was unmoved, and continued to say with emotion:

"...The first emperor was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He chose people not because of his status, but because of his needs. Just like the first emperor chose the British Duke, he also needed him to unite the nobles of Xianbei, so that the Wei country would not be chaotic and continue to prosper.

how?Everyone here, is there anyone who doesn't look forward to the prosperity of the Wei State and the unification of the world one day? "
