Chapter 670 A Special Errand

In the past, Yang Zhenqing might not be reconciled, but today, after going through so many things, Yang Zhenqing was the first to stand up and agree.

"Grand Master Yang, you have to assist from the side, and remember to put the overall situation first, don't mess up, and don't mess up." Lu Yan ordered again, and Yang Zhenqing bowed down.

At this moment, Yang Zhenqing looked solemn.

The current Shoufu Pavilion is no longer that fragrant nest. Under the imperial dictatorship, no one here can see where the Shoufu Pavilion will go. Now that the wind and rain are precarious, even the old enemies Xiao Yu and Yang Zhenqing can only do it. Abandon past suspicions and join hands.

"I will not participate in the court meeting. I am practicing outside, and the royal family still has scruples, so I dare not do too much. My colleagues, the 5000-year holy pilgrimage has been peaceful for most of the time, but there have also been dangerous storms. Sometimes, the situation It may not be better than today, and it is even more dangerous, but the holy dynasty can still survive, and that sentence, I hope everyone, still put the overall situation first.”

After Grand Master Lu Yan finished speaking, he waved his hand: "Others go out, Chu Xian, you stay here, I have something to tell you."

All the immortals in the Shoufu Pavilion were taken aback.

It would be normal if grand master Lu Yan left Xiao Yu or other immortal officials to explain things, but it is a bit strange that he left Chu Xian alone.

But everyone didn't ask too much, since Grand Master Lu Yan did this, there must be a reason for doing so.

The other immortal officials saluted and left one after another, leaving only Chu Xian.

Grand Master Lu Yan said at this time: "Chu Xian, what did you think of just now, I know what you thought, but there are some things, don't say it now, keep it in your heart, because I have something to ask you to do."

After speaking, speak softly and speak out one by one.

"Chu Xian, as long as you know one thing, that will never be written by the Holy Ancestor."

Chu Xian was taken aback, and wanted to ask, Lu Yan waved his hand: "I know what you want to ask, you want to ask, since you know it's not the work of the ancestor, why don't you try to stop it, but you have to know, this is like a master's move When there is only one chance to make a move, we can't make a move until there is no conclusive evidence to prove that the edict is fake. Otherwise, if we use this chance, we will have no chance next time. The other party dares to release this share at this time The edict means that you have made all the preparations. Even if you take it to the official code for verification, I am afraid it will not help. You are the number one detective of the Holy Dynasty. Today, I will let you go Do one thing, find out the truth of this matter, or that sentence, imperial dictatorship is not advisable."

How smart Chu Xian is now, he naturally understood what Grand Master Lu Yan meant.

So Chu Xian thought for a while, nodded and said, "Chu Xian will do his best."

"Okay, you go." Grand Master Lu Yan nodded with a smile, and Chu Xian retreated.

The explanation just now cannot be understood literally, because what Grand Master Lu Yan said alone is actually contradictory, but if you analyze it carefully, you will know what Grand Master Lu Yan is trying to express.

To put it simply, it is to tell Chu Xian that it doesn't matter whether the edict is true or not, because now it cannot be proved that it is false, the royal family can coerce the edict to disrupt the government, no one dares to control it, and they have to obey. 'Truth', in fact, is to let Chu Xian find a way to make the will into a fake.

It doesn't matter if it's confounding black and white, or it's a conspiracy. In short, since the imperial dictatorship is not desirable, then this will can only be false, and it must be false.

It's not fake, it can be fake.

It's just that Chu Xian was very surprised that Taishi Lu Yan actually entrusted him with such an important matter.

This is too trusting of myself.

Or did Grand Master Lu Yan feel that he was the most suitable candidate for this matter?
"Unexpectedly, I was such a person in Grand Master Lu Yan's eyes. I thought he would think I was a good person." Chu Xian laughed at himself.

But when Chu Xian walked to the court meeting, he already understood why Grand Master Lu Yan would look for him instead of other immortal officials.

Firstly, he is not what he used to be now, he is a Taoist immortal, and his official position is not low, and secondly, the most important thing is that Grand Master Lu Yan specifically mentioned that he is the number one detective of the Holy Dynasty.

One must know that Grand Master Lu Yan would not say this title for no reason, that is because the person who is best at solving cases and chasing murderers is also the person who is best at committing crimes.

Reversing black and white is not something that everyone can do, and it must be seamless, so Grand Master Lu Yan found him and entrusted him with an important task.

For a moment, Chu Xian felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier.

Because the previous emergency meeting of the Shoufu Pavilion has already set the tone, this court meeting is basically just a formality. The imperial power is already unstoppable. Disrespect will be regarded as treason and disrespect.

The royal family unanimously elected the Dragon Prince Li Qianlong to be the emperor. I don't know how Li Qianlong managed the royal family. It can be said that this is a very powerful figure.

The Shoufu Pavilion also tried to find someone else from the royal family to replace Li Qianlong, at least he could control it, but it turned out that none of the children of the royal family in Jingzhou, even if they were collateral, were willing to cooperate.

And in terms of seniority, Prince Long is actually the most qualified to become emperor.

In this way, even if you don't want to, you can't do anything.

Prince Long, holding the imperial edict of the holy ancestor, directly announced that after seven days, he would ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, and take charge of the power of the holy dynasty.

The news spread very quickly, and no one would have imagined that among the people, there were so many people who supported the royal family. Knowing that the royal family was going to proclaim themselves emperor and take over the authority of the Holy Dynasty, many people began to celebrate.

The shock on the common people's side is obviously far less than that in the officialdom.

This time, the authority changed, and an emperor appeared. For the official circles of the Holy Dynasty, the earth was shaken. Although most officials were shocked in their hearts, they still performed their duties. A small number of officials arrived overnight. Jingzhou expressed his loyalty to the new emperor in order to be reused.

Everyone knows that the first thing the new emperor will do when he ascends the throne is to disturb the officialdom, and it will inevitably be a 'bloody storm'.Of course, some officials believed that even if the royal family relied on the imperial edict to establish the emperor, it would be impossible to shake the position of the Shoufu Pavilion in a short period of time. After all, this power cannot be taken away overnight.Some things are obvious, like the royal family participating in politics, strengthening imperial power, and establishing an emperor. It is good to let people from the royal family join the court and participate in politics. It is enough to elect a royal family to be the emperor, but whether it can really control power depends on this. means.

Because of this, everyone knows that the struggle at that time will be quite 'tragic', so at this juncture, all officials, from top to bottom, are cautious.

Of course, officials in some small counties don't care. They are the lowest-level officials, and the battles and turmoil at the top will not affect their level, so this seat is actually the most secure.

After seven days, the grand enthronement ceremony was a grand affair, known all over the world, even the Wu Clan and some small neighboring countries sent envoys to meet the new emperor of the Holy Dynasty.

When Li Qianlong ascended the throne and became emperor, the first thing he did was to ask the Minister of Rites to set the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping the emperor.

Obviously, Li Qianlong's purpose in doing this is very clear, which is to establish imperial authority.

The ceremony of kneeling is the most solemn. Most of the time, once kneeling, it is difficult for most people to remember, and after kneeling for a long time, most people forget how to stand up.

It's a subconscious class divide.

Li Qianlong wants to use the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping to strengthen the concept of imperial supremacy, not only to deter all officials, but also to show it to the world.

However, the new emperor's first decree was refuted by the Minister of Rites. The Minister of Rites bluntly stated that the ritual of kneeling and worshiping is not legal, let alone inappropriate, and it is fashionable for the ancestors to rule the holy pilgrimage and there is no need for courtiers and people to kneel. special?Want to promote the pedantic rules that the ancestors are unwilling to do?

The Minister of Rites is also a sharp-tongued person, a well-learned person, and everything he says is reasonable. Although Li Qianlong has various reasons, he has never debated the Minister of Rites in the court, so although he was unhappy, he did not Forcing, kneeling and worshiping, he can only give up for the time being.

But this is just one of the countless confrontations that will follow.

In addition to the gift of meeting, the new emperor Li Qianlong revealed his orders in many ways, for example, he asked the royal family not only to participate in politics, but also to hold important positions.In addition, the appointment of officials not only needs to be approved by the Ministry of Officials, but he, as the emperor, also has to review and nod.

Obviously, the new emperor Li Qianlong intends to gradually fight for power, either to someone close to him or to himself.

In most cases, Li Qianlong can succeed. After all, he is the new emperor and has almost the greatest right to speak. There are some words that people like Grand Master Lu Yan dare not say, but he just opened his mouth, so it only takes a few days. The few officials are already complaining endlessly.

Unrestricted and having the greatest right to speak is a big problem in itself.

But in fact, this is just the beginning. At the court meeting this day, Li Qianlong directly issued many appointments, and even ordered the establishment of the "Emperor Yusi".

There are more than a dozen officials in the Imperial Division, who are directly responsible to the emperor. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Imperial Division has similar powers to the Shoufu Pavilion. Obviously, this is the authority that Li Qianlong used to replace and evade the Shoufu Pavilion.

The Chief Imperial Minister in the Royal Division is Nie Zhizhong, the Lord of the Starry Sky, and Li Qianlong directly conferred the first-rank official position on him.

Obviously, Li Qianlong had this plan long ago. He knew that it would be extremely difficult to enter the Shoufu Pavilion, or even disintegrate this organization. Moreover, the Shoufu Pavilion was established by the Holy Ancestor. Even if he wanted to, he would not dare to abolish the Shoufu Pavilion. Otherwise, he will be caught. How could a man like Li Qianlong, who is rich in the city and good at calculating, not think of this?
Therefore, the purpose of his establishment of Huang Yusi is already obvious.

However, it is not possible to replace Shoufu Pavilion with Huang Yusi. After all, Shoufu Pavilion has existed for too long. It was replaced by time, but this is a beginning and a strong signal.
