The Most Powerful Man in the World

Taking a deep breath, Bi Heng did not expect that Chu Yi would ask him what he meant instead of directly appointing him. In Bi Heng's view, this was a kind of respect and value that Chu Yi had for him.

Only when he respects and values ​​him, Chu Yi will ask him what he means, instead of directly assigning him an official position without even discussing it.

Bi Heng glanced at Chu Yi and said slowly: "Bi is very grateful for being valued by the governor. If the governor has an order, Bi Heng will definitely not refuse."

Chu Yi looked at Bi Heng and pondered: "I wanted to reinstate the official Bi Heng and take charge of the Ministry of Engineering, but Chu knew that Mr. Bi had served as the Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy!"

Bi Heng nodded slightly and said, "Xiaguan did indeed serve as the Lianghuai Salt Transporter. Could it be that the Superintendent is going to let Bi be the Lianghuai Salt Transporter?"

Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy is a fat poor, and there are not a few people who stare at him. When he was the Lianghuai Salt Transport Ambassador, he offended too many people and blocked the interests of too many people. As a result, he only served less than one person. In [-], he was transferred from the post of Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy.

Chu Yi shook his head slightly and said, "The Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy is a bit overkill for Master Bi. What the Governor is considering is to let Master Bi be the Governor of Cao Transport and take charge of Cao Transport for me, Daming."

"Governor of Water Transport?"

Both Bi Heng and Jiao Fang were shocked when they heard this, and looked at Chu Yi in amazement.

Jiao Fang took a deep breath and said to Chu Yi, "Could it be that the governor doesn't know that Lu Wenyang, the governor of water transportation, can't be moved lightly?"

Even Bi Heng looked at Chu Yi with a worried look on his face and said, "The Governor, the Governor of Caoyun is very important, so we must take a long-term view!"

Just by looking at the reactions of Jiao Fang and Bi Heng, they knew that they were not mediocre. It was because they saw Lu Wenyang's influence that they dissuaded Chu Yi for the first time.

After all, they know very well that once Lu Wenyang is moved, as long as Chu Yi is willing, there is indeed a great possibility to take Lu Wenyang, but with Lu Wenyang's temperament, he is definitely not a person who sits and waits, and will inevitably cause great trouble. trouble.

I don’t know how many people in the Chinese military have been staring at Chu Yi, just waiting for Chu Yi to reveal his flaws. Just like Liu Jin, it was because of his governance that Anhua King Zhu Zhixiu rebelled. As a result, the cultural management system seized the opportunity to take him down Take down.

It is conceivable that once Chu Yi turned against the words of a water transport governor like Lu Wenyang, the water transport governor would directly affect the stability of the capital, and the influence would be far greater than that of Zhu Zhixiu, who was far away in a border town. The officer would never let such a good opportunity pass by.

At that time, Baiguan came with righteousness, and even the emperor might not be able to protect Chu Yi.

Chu Yi saw the reaction of the two's expressions in his eyes and smiled slightly: "You two don't have to worry, the Governor of Caoyun, if the Governor does not take action, someone will take him down."

Speaking of which, Chu Yi gave Lu Wenyang a generous gift to compliment him, but he handed over the gift to the emperor one by one.

Jiao Fang and Bi Heng were equally surprised. Bi Heng saw Chu Yi even more pleasing to the eye. He had seen the eunuchs in the power of Daming several times. It was really rare for those who did not love money. Mindfulness is definitely not something ordinary people can do.How can this not be admired by the honest and upright Bi Heng.

Jiao Fang said with a strange expression: "The Governor means that His Majesty has handed over the investigation of Lu Wenyang to the Cabinet!"

Chu Yi nodded and said with a chuckle: "Your Majesty personally opened the mouth and handed it over to the cabinet. Several cabinet elders of the cabinet must give His Majesty an explanation, otherwise..."

Hearing this, Jiao Fang stroked his beard and chuckled lightly: "Your Majesty's trick is wonderful, this old man really wants to see how the elders will react when they hear the news."

Looking at Bi Heng, Chu Yi said with a chuckle: "So you don't have to worry too much about Mr. Bi, Lu Wenyang has his own cabinet to take care of, even if something goes wrong, it's the cabinet that will have the headache, so Mr. Bi might as well take care of the future. The governor in charge of water transportation should make some preparations."

The position of the Governor of Water Transport can definitely be said to be a senior official of the frontier. He is in charge of the Grand Canal, responsible for water transport, and his power is prosperous.

Bi Heng nodded and said, "Don't worry, the governor, the next official will not disappoint the governor."

For Bi Heng, an official who climbed up step by step by relying on his own strength, Chu Yi never worried about his ability. The only thing he worried about was whether he would be as greedy as Lu Wenyang in the seat of the Governor of Caoyun.

However, Bi Heng is an honest and honest person, and he was not greedy for ink when he was the envoy of salt transportation of Lianghuai, which was also rich in oil and water, so it is unlikely that he would be greedy for ink in the position of governor of water transportation.

A figure appeared, but it was Du Qian, only to hear Du Qian say to Chu Yi: "Master, only then did His Majesty's personal attendant come to pass on His Majesty's order, saying that His Majesty has urgently summoned the Governor."

Chu Yi raised his brows and nodded, and said to Bi Heng and Jiao Fang, "The two of you, Your Majesty is urgently summoned, and Chu will not accompany you. The two of you will rest here and wait for His Majesty's order!"

Bi Heng and Jiao Fang got up and sent Chu Yi away respectfully.

In the leopard room, Chu Yi came in a hurry. When he saw Zhu Houzhao, he saw Zhu Houzhao sitting there silently, and he couldn't help but feel a little doubt in his heart.

When did Zhu Houzhao become so calm, but the next moment, Zhu Houzhao seemed to hear his footsteps and looked up.

Seeing Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up with a smile on his face and said, "Chu Dafan, you are finally here, I have to think about it."

With a puzzled look on Chu Yi's face, he looked at Gu Dayong next to him, and then Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but wonder, "Oh, what's the matter with your majesty?"

Zhu Houzhao frowned and said, "It's not because of Lu Wenyang, the Governor of Water Transport! I never thought that Lu Wenyang would be such a big disaster."

Chu Yi only heard what Zhu Houzhao said and knew that Zhu Houzhao was probably aware of the possible consequences if Lu Wenyang jumped over the wall.

"Hasn't Your Majesty handed over Lu Wenyang to the Cabinet for investigation, His Majesty just needs to wait for the cabinet's news!"

Zhu Houzhao motioned for Chu Yi to sit down and said with a straight face: "But I want to tell my companion that Yang Qing's family came to see me not long ago!"

Chu Yi was not surprised and said with a smile, "Oh, Lord Yang has already come to see His Majesty. Could it be that the cabinet has already made a decision and is going to send someone to investigate Lu Wenyang?"

Zhu Houzhao nodded and shook his head: "Yang Qing's family decided that he himself would bring someone to investigate Lu Wenyang. I'm worried about whether to agree or not?"

Chu Yi almost spit out the tea and coughed lightly. Chu Yi looked at Zhu Houzhao with a look of astonishment and said, "Your Majesty, are you sure Yang Tinghe is going to bring someone to investigate Lu Wenyang, not someone else?"

[The third one is delivered, sweat, too sleepy, crawl to sleep, ask for a monthly pass, monthly pass, monthly pass, reward! 】

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

It wasn't surprising for Zhu Houzhao to see Chu Yi's reaction, even he was shocked when he heard Yang Tinghe asked him to investigate Lu Wenyang.

Whether it was Zhu Houzhao or Chu Yi, they never thought about this possibility at all. I have to say that Yang Tinghe's decision exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Yang Qing's family just left me not long ago!"

Chu Yi naturally knew that Zhu Houzhao would not be able to joke with him about this kind of thing, and he subconsciously asked because Yang Tinghe's choice was unbelievable.

After pondering for a while, Chu Yi looked at Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, have you granted Yang Tinghe's request?"

Zhu Houzhao shook his head slightly and said, "How could I have thought that the Yang Qing family would ask me to go and investigate Lu Wenyang, so I did not give the Yang Qing family an answer."

After speaking, Zhu Houzhao looked at Chu Yi and said, "I don't know what you think of Chu Dabian?"

With a smile on the corner of Chu Yi's mouth, he looked at Zhu Houzhao and said slowly, "Your Majesty, I feel that since Lord Shoufu wants to investigate Lu Wenyang, Your Majesty might as well allow Yang Tinghe!"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Chu Yi in astonishment and said, "My companion, Yang Qing's family is the first assistant of the imperial court, the head of all officials, if it is as my companion feared, Lu Wenyang is lawless, he may not dare to treat Yang Qing. Start at home."

If Yang Tinghe went to investigate and deal with Lu Wenyang, the head of the hundred officials, once there was an accident, he would lose the face of the court, which was what Zhu Houzhao cared about.

Chu Yi said: "Your Majesty can think of this, can it be that Yang Ting and him can't think of it? Since Yang Ting talked to himself, it means that he has a certain degree of confidence. Your Majesty will not think that Yang Ting and him are going to die!"

Hearing what Chu Yi said, Zhu Houzhao fixed his eyes on Chu Yi and said, "The big companion means that I will grant Yang Tinghe's request!"

Chu Yi said: "Yes, it is better for Your Majesty to add Yang Tinghe as an imperial commissioner, so that Lord Yang can act cheaply!"

Zhu Houzhao sat there, his expression fluctuating, obviously he was considering Chu Yi's proposal, and after a long time Zhu Houzhao spit out a turbid breath: "Forget it, since you also think Yang Tinghe is suitable, then I will do it!"

Chu Yi left the leopard room, returned to the East Factory, and immediately sent someone to inquire about Yang Tinghe.

To be honest, Chu Yi suspects that Yang Tinghe's actions are likely to be a retreat. After all, Zhu Houzhao's original intention was not to agree to Yang Tinghe's request.

In this way, Yang Tinghe was able to leave a loyal and straight impression in Zhu Houzhao's mind that he dared to serve and was not afraid of danger, and he could retire safely.

This time, under his persuasion, Zhu Houzhao agreed to Yang Tinghe's request, but he wanted to see how Yang Tinghe would react.

The emperor's will was very fast, but it took a while to reach the cabinet.

In the cabinet, since Yang Tinghe went to the leopard room, all the elders have been waiting for the emperor's will.

The emperor's hesitation was naturally within their expectations. If Zhu Houzhao really agreed very simply, it would be a strange thing.

How can the dignified chief assistant leave lightly, even the emperor must think about it carefully.

Fei Hong glanced at Yang Tinghe, who was sitting in the presence of the old god, sitting there as steady as Mount Tai reviewing the book, and couldn't help but admire Yang Tinghe's determination.

If it was him, I'm afraid he would have been restless, but Yang Tinghe was not worried or anxious at all.

"Master Jiang, do you think your Majesty will agree to Master Yang's request?"

Jiang Mian, who was sitting opposite Fei Hong, retracted his gaze from the memorial in his hand, put it down gently, first glanced at Yang Tinghe, then shook his head slightly, and said in a low voice, "How could Your Majesty agree to Lord Yang's request? How can you take risks so easily!"

Fei Hong nodded slightly, and the cabinet elders on the side also laughed lightly: "You don't have to worry, Your Majesty will never agree to let Lord Shoufu go to investigate Lu Wenyang."

It can be seen that several cabinet elders in the cabinet agreed that Zhu Houzhao would not agree to Yang Tinghe's request.

Just as he was talking, he saw Gu Dayong followed by two little eunuchs in the cabinet.

When the elders on duty saw Gu Dayong, they were stunned for a moment, and then they reacted.

With a smile on Gu Dayong's face, he bowed his hands and said, "Our family took the liberty to come here, but it disturbed a few patriarchs to handle government affairs."

Several pavilion elders returned the salute. At this moment, Yang Tinghe came forward and said to Gu Dayong: "Director Gu came in person, but what is your majesty's will?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Gu Dayong, and if Gu Dayong could come in person, if there was no accident, there must be Zhu Houzhao's will to convey.

Gu Dayong rarely conveys the will of the emperor in person, but this time he came in person, which shows that the emperor attaches great importance to this will.

With a light cough, Gu Dayong took out a bright yellow scroll from his cuff, which was the emperor's decree.

Seeing that Gu Dayong took out the emperor's decree, several elders immediately stepped forward to salute, and they heard Gu Dayong's solemn voice: "The chief assistant of the cabinet, Yang Tinghe listens to the decree!"

Yang Tinghe stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"...I hereby confer Yang Tinghe as a minister of imperial envoy to supervise Lu Wenyang, the governor of water transportation..."

A splendid imperial decree, the meaning is very clear, it is nothing more than agreeing to Yang Tinghe's request, and adding Yang Tinghe as an imperial envoy, has the right to act cheaply, and must strictly investigate Lu Wenyang!

The other elders were still full of confidence just now, firmly believing that the emperor would not agree to Yang Tinghe's request, but at this moment, they were all dumbfounded after listening to the emperor's will.

Looking at the decree in Gu Da's hand, and then at Yang Tinghe, the patriarchs felt like they were dreaming.

Why did the emperor agree? Didn't the emperor know that if something happened to Yang Ting and this, the court would fall into chaos?

Yang Tinghe slowly kowtowed, took the decree respectfully, and kowtowed: "My minister Yang Tinghe, the decree, thank you!"

Gu Da looked at Yang Tinghe with a smile and said: "Master Yang, Your Majesty has considered it for a long time before agreeing to His Excellency's request. Before we came to our house, His Majesty specifically asked me to remind Lord Yang that you must pay attention to safety during this trip."

Yang Tinghe looked flattered and said: "Your Majesty cares, the old minister is frightened!"

Jiang Mian on the side coughed lightly and bowed to Gu Dayong: "Director Gu, why did Your Majesty agree to Lord Yang's request?"

The other elders were also puzzled. After all, Zhu Houzhao, whom they remembered, was unlikely to agree to Yang Tinghe's request to put him in danger.

Gu Dayong glanced at a few patriarchs and said with a look of difficulty on his face: "Please forgive our family for not being able to comment!"

After speaking, I ignored the reactions of the several patriarchs, and bowed to Yang Tinghe and said: "Master Yang, since the will has been conveyed, our family should go back to serve His Majesty, so I say goodbye!"

Yang Tinghe sent Gu Dayong out of the cabinet, and when Gu Dayong disappeared in the distance, Yang Tinghe returned to the cabinet.

At this moment, several elders in the cabinet looked at Yang Tinghe with angry expressions on their faces: "Shou Fu, there must be something strange about this matter. If your majesty says you want to agree, when you ask, your majesty is afraid. Yes, I have already agreed, and I will never hesitate for so long."

Fei Hong stroked his beard and said, "Someone must have said something that made His Majesty change his mind. This person..."

"Chu Yi!"

"The castrate Chu Yi!"

Almost instantly, several patriarchs said Chu Yi's name in unison. In this world, there are very few people who can influence Zhu Houzhao's thoughts, and Chu Yi is exactly one of them.

They really can't think of anyone other than Chu Yi who can persuade the emperor to change his mind, and who has the motive to spend Yang Ting and the cabinet chief assistant.

Looking at Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian said with a worried expression: "Master Yang, Chu Yi persuaded the emperor to send his master to investigate Lu Wenyang. He is uneasy and kind."
