Chapter 766

If Yueshan wants to seal the fief to Qi Yong himself, then he will definitely not object, but will be ecstatic.But unfortunately, that fief has nothing to do with him.

He is a high-ranking official in the central court of the Yue Kingdom, so of course he doesn't want to see the Yue Kingdom weakened in disguise.

And not just him?Almost all the ministers in the palace now have similar ideas.

"Bastard!" Qi Yong compared Lin Si to those princes and kings who used to be independent without authorization, which caused a trace of anger to surge in Yue Shan's heart.

He said coldly: "Don't forget, Yue Lianshan is the only son of the lonely king..."

Yueshan's words were somewhat cryptic, but the officials understood what he meant.

His words undoubtedly amounted to announcing the fact that Prince Lianshan is the prince in disguise.

In the future, the entire Yue Kingdom will belong to Yue Lianshan, so what's the point of giving him a fief right now?After he takes the throne in the future, won't he still be incorporated into the territory of the Moon Kingdom?

The fiefdom of Yuelian Mountain is actually different from the fiefdoms of other princes.

The fiefs given to other princes are considered to be given to outsiders, although they may be taken back in the future.And for Yue Lianshan, it can only be regarded as Yueshan gave his son some territory in advance that will be given to him sooner or later.

Of course, these ministers understand this truth.

But understanding and understanding does not mean that they can understand this approach, let alone that they can agree with it.

Now that the north is allocated to Prince Lianshan, before Yuelianshan succeeds, if they go to the north, it is actually equivalent to going to another country.

During the decades they were officials, they were no longer able to intervene in northern affairs.Taxes in the north, resources in the north, trade in the north, military horses in the north, official vacancies in the north...all have nothing to do with them.

They can no longer control the north, let alone gain any benefits from it.

"Your Majesty, please think twice, this is absolutely impossible..."

No matter Qi Yong, Ge Yun Minran, or even many ministers behind them can't accept such absurd reward, this is completely splitting the Moon Kingdom, isn't it?

Among the ministers, the only one who stood there silently was the prime minister Yang Jie.

Except for him, the others, even his son Yang Yu and grandson Yang You were equally puzzled by Yue Shan's decision.

That's right, Yang Jie has already keenly seen something from this award.

Of course he knew that the reason why Yueshan kept him was to let him help Yuelianshan.Although Yueshan's reward was too much for him, he thought further.

The 400 people who turned to Hanyue last time, although most of them were not dismissed, and even many of them still stayed in the court, but their situation is actually very embarrassing.

Yueshan has a grudge against them, and they are also worried that Yueshan will go back on his word one day and secretly attack them again.

In the end, it is impossible for the rest of the surrounding officials to have no opinion of them at all.

Getting along like this is likely to cause problems.

So, what to do with these people?

manor!A flash of enlightenment flashed in the old man's eyes!

Lin Si's future fiefdom will be in the north, which has been ruled by the Southern Qi people for a year.

Several provincial governors, hundreds of city lords and deputy city lords, as well as thousands of small officials at all levels and even more can be relocated there.

Lots of people would beat their heads to go there if they could.How many people can refuse to be an official?
However, for these central officials in Chaozhong and Xiancheng, it is different.

They can be regarded as officials in the capital, and they accompany the emperor all the year round, so they are already superior to local officials.Being sent to the north from here is not a good job for them, it can only be regarded as a decentralization.

What's more, the north is still an occupied area, and the war has not yet ended. Who knows if the Southern Qi people will fight back one day, and being the city lord there is considered a head.

Yang Jie has already seen that Yueshan intends to send these 400 people and more of their cronies and relatives to the north.

Such a policy can quickly stabilize the city that was beaten down in the north. After all, these people are all talented and practical.Second, it can also solve the embarrassing situation of these 400 people in the court.The third is to let them get close to Lin Si as soon as possible...

No wonder why he wanted to give Yue Lianshan such a big fiefdom.In addition to doting on this son extremely, another reason is that only such a large fiefdom can accommodate so many 'offenders' who were once high in power and capable.

It counts in one fell swoop, even though he knew that the Moon King above was extremely powerful, the old prime minister couldn't help but feel admiration at this moment.

The 400 of them and many more people behind them could only accept the order of being released because they had no choice. The coup d'etat made them lose a lot of voice.

After trying to understand this point, he completely shut his mouth, looked at his nose, nose and heart, and just waited for the expected result.

Sure enough, Yueshan quickly rejected the request of Qi Yong and others.

"I've made up my mind, you don't need to say anything!" This time, he appeared extremely tough.

Before Qi Yong and others continued to speak, he took it as an established fact and skipped to the next topic.

"Gancheng has been conquered. General Yue Lianshan wrote to the imperial court, saying that there is an urgent need to send someone to take over the administration. Who are the ministers to choose?"

All the ministers looked at each other for a while, feeling helpless for Yueshan's arbitrary decision on the one hand, and on the other hand could not help but weigh the pros and cons of going to Gancheng to take up the post.

This is a decentralization, and everyone in the hall can see it.

But now around Gancheng, the war is not over yet, and it is actually still very dangerous.

What's more, even the city lord can only be regarded as a sixth-rank official, and he is still a local official. No one in this hall has an official title below the fifth rank, so many people frowned.

For a while, they couldn't think of any candidates.But at least one thing, they themselves are not willing to go.

When all the officials in the hall fell silent, Yang Jie finally spoke.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to recommend the two of you to Gancheng for their posts!"

The voice immediately seemed to wake up all the officials in the hall, and countless eyes with various meanings immediately focused on the thin and crooked body in front of him.

Yueshan glanced at him with a half-smile: "Oh? Who do you want to recommend?"

Yang Jie said loudly: "Shangshu Hucao, Yangyu, and Shangshulang, Yangyou, these two have been officials for several years without any fault, and their abilities are not bad. They should be qualified to be the city lord and deputy city lord of Gancheng!"

His words not only stunned the officials, even his son Yang Yu and grandson Yang You were dumbfounded.

Of course he is being modest. In terms of ability and status, Yang Yu is considered overqualified as a provincial governor, let alone a city lord in a war-torn land?

And although his grandson Yangyou is only Shang Shulang, he is an official in the court anyway, and his rank is higher than that of the city lord.

He was simply trying to trick his son and grandson on purpose.

If Yang Jie wasn't his grandfather, Yang You might hate him now.

There was a meaningful look in Yueshan's eyes.

He hooked the corner of his mouth: "Then Zhunqing will play, and Yang You will take over the position of Gancheng City Lord. As for Yang Yu...he will be the governor of Huaizhou."
