eunuch

Chapter 82 Master (ninth update, please subscribe)

"The post of head of Shenwu Academy really shouldn't be vacant for too long, Xiao Qing, do you have any suitable candidates?"

Sitting high on the dragon chair, Qianhuang looked as usual, then nodded and asked.

"Your Majesty, I do have a suitable candidate."

Prime Minister Xiao Rong immediately bowed and said.

"Xiao Qing, tell me."

Emperor Qian said with a chuckle.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Yecheng with the sword has made outstanding contributions. He has made great contributions to quelling the chaos in the six southeastern states. His combat power is amazing. He is on the top of the gold list of our country. In time, he will definitely step into the ranks of masters. Competent for the post of head of Shenwu Academy."

Prime Minister Xiao Rong said immediately, his tone was loud and full of admiration.

The whole place fell silent immediately.

Many civil and military ministers were dumbfounded, because they had thought of many names, but they just didn't think of the person Xiao Xiang mentioned.

"Your Majesty, absolutely not. How can an eunuch take on such a heavy responsibility. Once it gets out, won't it make all the countries laugh at me and have no one in the country?"

A figure rushed out from the ranks of civil servants, came to Xiao Xiang's side, knelt down directly, and objected loudly.

Like an introduction, ministers of civil and military affairs ran out one after another, and they also opposed it one after another.

Ye Cheng, who was standing at the end of the military officer, was a little dazed.

what's the situation?
Is this the purpose of Emperor Qian to let himself participate in the Great Court Meeting?
Isn't the post of head of the Shenwu Academy held by Grandmaster Qian Guo in all dynasties?

However, Ye Cheng was puzzled, but he understood that Emperor Qian wanted to take this opportunity to take the post of head of Shenwu Academy into his own hands.

For a long time, Shenwu Academy has almost become the territory of the Hetian Wang family and the Longmen Zhao family.

It is difficult for the emperor to intervene.

Most of the outstanding warriors cultivated from it were also attracted by these two forces.

The gangster rebellion in the six states in the southeast is actually the sequelae caused by it.

"In this way, don't I have to take the two routes of internal and external ministers at the same time?"

Ye Cheng secretly sighed in his heart.

Originally, he thought that he might become the master of Taiwu Hall.

Since Emperor Qian was going to win the position of head of Shenwu Academy, he must have prepared it long ago, and these opponents would definitely not be able to cause too much trouble.

After all, after the Hetian Wang family and the Longmen Zhao family were suppressed, some civil and military ministers who were close to them became much more honest.

After some opponents came out, there were actually quite a few supporters.

Among them, Taiwei Yuchiyan was the leader.

Standing out with his tower-like body, he was full of ferocious aura. He was dressed in heavy armor, and the ground seemed to vibrate as he walked.

"Bastard old thing, open your dog eyes and see, why can't the sword master be the head of this Shenwu Academy? Although he is a eunuch, he was ordered to risk entering Weizhou, surrounded by powerful enemies. Ma Yunlong took back the control of the Liefeng Army, found out the iron evidence of black iron city smuggling refined iron ingots, how much loss was recovered for the court? He also killed the leader of the Ma bandit, Zhao Wuji, and destroyed the lair of the Ma bandit. Clearing up more than a dozen innate-level martial arts forces in collusion with the Ma bandits, and returning the dire state of Weizhou to normal, with such credit, are you fools blind?"

Yu Chiyan was like a King Kong glaring at him, walking in front of an old man, his spittle almost sprayed on that man's face.

He even clasped the necks of the two civil servants with his big hands, his ferocious expression almost made people faint.

"You, you are disgraceful."

The old man's face was pale, his mouth was trembling, and he almost fainted from anger.

For a while, the hall was in chaos, and the two sides began to fight with each other.

Overall, though, supporters have the upper hand.

Because Prime Minister Xiao Rong, and Taiwei Wei Chiyan, the two heavyweights in the court, both supported the sword-wielding Hou Yecheng as the head of Shenwu Academy.

And these two people, as Emperor Qian's right-hand men in the court, naturally gathered a group of people behind them.

In addition, people from Longmen Zhao's family and Hetian Wang's family did not dare to make big moves, which also caused opponents to fall into a disadvantage.

It was the first time for Ye Cheng to see such a chaotic situation in the court hall, even worse than before.

Especially Taiwei Yu Chiyan's appearance of almost fighting and eating people, Ye Cheng finds it very interesting.

He, Prime Minister Xiao Rong, and Taiwei Wei Chiyan naturally had nothing to do with each other. When they were in King Jing's mansion, these two were King Jing's right-hand men, with high status.

After King Jing became the emperor, the two also entered the court, starting from a very high starting point.

Now it has become the head of civil servants and generals.

After a long time, Emperor Qian suddenly coughed a few times, then his face darkened, and he said seriously.

"What is the order in the chaotic court, Yu Chiyan, Mr. Xu are all so old, even if they have different opinions, they can't go to war like this?"

Suddenly, the main hall, which was still arguing, suddenly became quiet.

"Your Majesty said yes."

He was picking up a thin old man with one hand, and Yu Chiyan, who threatened fiercely, sneered, put him down quickly, and then straightened his clothes, "Master Xu, I'm really sorry, a certain family was a little emotional just now, please don't write it down." In my heart, after all, we are colleagues and we all serve His Majesty."

Master Xu was so angry that he was trembling all over, if he couldn't beat Yu Chiyan, he would definitely do it.

"Yecheng."

After the order in the court was restored, Emperor Qian suddenly shouted.

When all the civil and military officials in the audience heard Qianhuang calling Ye Cheng's name, they immediately knew Qianhuang's decision.
In other words, the scene of today's grand court meeting was planned by Qianhuang long ago.

Many people are even more amazed at Qianhuang's scheming.

No wonder Emperor Qian insisted on conferring Ye Cheng as the Marquis of the Sword, and his ultimate goal was to be the head of Shenwu Academy.

The title of Marquis of Holding Sword seems to be just a false title, which is not very meaningful.

But it is this title that can make a eunuch in Yecheng change from an inner courtier to an outer courtier.

"The minister is here."

Ye Cheng quickly walked out from the corner of the main hall, and came to the front of the hall to salute.

"I appointed you as the acting head of the Shenwu Academy. You must dedicate yourself to your duties, ensure the normal operation of the Shenwu Academy, and select outstanding martial arts talents for the imperial court."

Emperor Qian said in a deep voice.

"Sir, obey the order."

Ye Cheng quickly received the order.

Soon, the eunuch Xu Heng, the supervisor of ceremonies, came to Ye Cheng with a tray.

Above it is the imperial decree of appointment, the official uniform and badge of the principal of Shenwu Academy.

He raised his hands and took the tray from Xu Heng.

"Your Majesty has an order to play again if there is something to do, and to leave the court if there is nothing to do."

Xu Heng shouted loudly.

After a while, Xu Heng shouted loudly again: "Retire."

Ye Cheng and other civil and military ministers hurriedly sent Emperor Qian away respectfully.

Xu Heng whispered to Ye Cheng: "Yehou, come to Yangshen Temple later, His Majesty wants to see you."

After finishing speaking, he quickly tiptoed and chased after Qianhuang who was leaving.

After Emperor Qian left, the hall immediately became chaotic, and the ministers began to discuss in groups and left the hall one after another.

"Yehou, congratulations."

The prime minister, Xiao Rong, came over unexpectedly, and said to Ye Cheng with his hands clasped.

"Master Xiao Xiang, thank you for your recommendation."

Ye Cheng hurriedly returned the gift.

"Ye Hou, you and I are all serving His Majesty, and we are all colleagues. This is as it should be. Moreover, Ye Hou has made great contributions to quelling the chaos of the Ma bandits in the six southeastern states."

Prime Minister Xiao Rong smiled lightly.

At this time, Taiwei Wei Chiyan came up, "Ye Hou, Xiang Xiang recommended you, a certain family has performed martial arts for you, how about it, is it interesting?"

"Master Taiwei's heroic spirit, Ye Mou really admires it."

Ye Cheng laughed.

He thought this Yu Chiyan was very interesting, despite his rough appearance and fierce behavior, he was also a thoughtful person.

To be able to achieve the post of Taiwei is not just an old man who follows King Jing, he must also have something extraordinary in his conduct.

"Ye Hou, then you didn't say anything, why don't you find a place and invite me to have a meal with Xiao Xiang?"

Yu Chiyan laughed.

"That should be the case. It depends on when Lord Xiang Xiang and Lord Taiwei have time."

Ye Cheng laughed.

"Just now, it's just noon."

Yu Chiyan said.

"What are you doing in such a hurry, Ye Hou has important things to do."

Prime Minister Xiao Rong laughed immediately.

"Xiao Xiang reminded me in time, Ye Mou almost forgot important things, Xiao Xiang, Lord Taiwei, Ye Mou is one step ahead, I will be the host when the time comes, please find a good place to have a drink."

Ye Cheng arched his hands and said.

After Ye Cheng left, Xiao Rong said with emotion: "I didn't expect such a person to be born in the former Prince Jing's Mansion."

"That's right, this Marquis Ye saved the life of the eldest son back then, and this time he was ordered to do so in a critical situation, and made great contributions. He became a marquis as a eunuch and served as the head of Shenwu Academy. He is destined to be extraordinary in the future."

Yu Chiyan's rough face also showed solemnity.

After Ye Cheng left Fengtian Palace, he went straight into the inner palace and arrived at Yangshen Palace.

With his current status, it is naturally unimpeded.

No tokens are used.

Just brush your face.

Arrived at the temple of nourishment.

"Ye Hou, Your Majesty is inside."

Xu Heng, who was standing at the door, said softly when he saw Ye Cheng arrive.

Ye Cheng nodded and walked in.

When he came to the hall, Ye Cheng saw Emperor Qian sitting behind the case.

"The minister has seen His Majesty."

Ye Cheng hurriedly saluted.

"Ye Cheng, do you know why I appointed you as the head of Shenwu Academy?"

Emperor Qian smiled lightly.

"I know."

Ye Cheng said.

"The Wang and Zhao families control Shenwu Academy, monopolize the source of students, and suck a lot of blood from the imperial court. This cancer must be pulled out."

Emperor Qian's tone suddenly became serious.

Obviously, he hated the Hetian Wang family and the Longmen Zhao family to the point of deep hatred.

Ye Cheng didn't speak.

He naturally knew this truth. If he were to sit on the throne, he would probably want to destroy these two master families even more than Qianhuang.

These two families took control of the Shenwu Academy, desperately stuffing their own people in it, or recruiting the outstanding warriors they cultivated into their lineup.

Consumable resources do belong to the imperial court.

You must know that Taiwu Hall and Shenwu Academy share a spiritual land, and the spiritual objects produced are almost evenly divided, but before the Wang and Zhao families were not satisfied, they tried to reduce the resources and expenses of Taiwu Hall.

How can Emperor Qian endure?

However, due to the situation, Emperor Qian had to back down and agreed to reduce the financial resources of Taiwu Hall.

But in the next step, Emperor Qian appointed Ye Cheng as the secret envoy to investigate the heavens, to investigate the rebellion of the gangsters in the six southeastern states, and only then did the follow-up results come.

"Yecheng, you don't need to have any pressure. This matter must be done slowly. If it doesn't work in five years, it will take ten years. If I can't do it while I'm in office, I'll just wait for the prince to become emperor."

Emperor Qian seemed to realize that his tone and emotions were a little out of control, so he said in a relaxed manner.

Ye Cheng is not yet a master, but only a half-step master. It is not so easy to open up the situation in Shenwu Academy.

The Hetian Wang family and the Longmen Zhao family have been running the Shenwu Academy for several generations, and have already formed an extremely stable interest group. The forces in it are deeply intertwined, and it is too difficult to shake.

"The minister understands."

Ye Cheng naturally wouldn't express his opinion.

Moreover, he also knows how difficult this matter is.

This is not fighting and killing.

Maybe he has the strength beyond ordinary masters, but it may not be effective in Shenwu Academy. He can't kill all dissatisfaction, right?

Every place has its own rules, sects have their own rules, courts have their own rules, and Shenwu Academy naturally has its own rules.

What I need to do is to complete the cleansing of Wang Zhao's influence network in the Shenwu Academy within the rules, and finally achieve the goal of controlling the Shenwu Academy.

A long way to go!
