But everyone obviously underestimated the power of Zhao Shi.

In other words, Zhao Jin, who was underestimating Zhao Jin, has done a lot of things under the eyes of the empress over the years.

A few days later, from local officials to court officials, only a hundred letters were handed over.

They all have only one meaning: Please give Li Ruyu the king.

That's all, after all, people in the officialdom are easily driven by interests, and Zhao Shi can promise them the benefits they need, and anyone who can do it is a fence-bearer.

What is really shocking is the memorial from the garrison.

The commander of the Imperial Guard and below, almost all the middle and high-level generals jointly named Chen Shu and asked Li Ruyu to be the king.

The Beiman sent a note, which was the heaviest.

I only say one thing: I would like to seal Li Ruyu.

The meaning of this memorial is too important because this is Yue Dan's memorial. He said this at this moment, which represents his position: supporting Zhao Shi.

After all, Zhao Jin is still in the Northern Barbarians at this moment.

Zhao Shi, who received Yue Shan's support, completely took the initiative, and was not even afraid of the rebellion of the Iron Ridge Army controlled by Li Ruyu.

If it is a villain, it will be surrounded.

The Imperial Guard and the Zhenbei Army generals attacked each other from north to south. At that time, even if Baili Chunxiang was alive, or the military immortals who fought against the north to south appeared, they could not change the situation where the Iron Ridge Army was surrounded by enemies.

Will definitely lose!

Yue Dan's memorial was like the last straw that overwhelmed the balance. Almost overnight, the entire Lin'an court, except for Shu Xianggong and Wang Zhushu, remained silent, Wei Xi and Ning Que still insisted on opposing it. Any ministers who spoke a little weight in the court agreed to make Li Ruyu the king.

Among them, there were two insignificant voices opposing it.

Fan Xian, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhou Huaisu, a crazy scholar who had just been transferred from the local area to serve as a counselor.

However, amid the huge waves of voices, the opposition between the two was extremely slight.

The general trend.

Even though Li Ruyu refused repeatedly, even though Ning Que and Wei Xi opposed it, the ministers agreed, Zhao Sa and Zhou Miaoshu promoted it, and the act of being the king was imperative.

What the ministers discussed was no longer whether to be granted a king.

But what kind of king is enthroned and where is the vassal state?

Some ministers from the central department saw the opportunity, and some people from the Privy Council also smelled the power. Once Li Ruyu was granted the title of king, the Zuo Sanqi Changshou would have a vacant vacancies.

Even if Wei Xi fills the vacancy, then there will be vacancy for the Attendant of the Right Sanqi.

The head of the Privy Council, who was also a general of Li Ruyu, is likely to be filled by Wang Zhushu, so Wang Zhushu's position as a Privy Council will be promoted directly from senior generals of the local garrison, or directly from the Privy Council according to the convention.

Driven by the general trends of all parties, Li Ruyu had no choice but to accept it.

Before this, the young emperor ordered the world to advertise, and changed the year name to Yuanxin.

Of course, this is what Zhao Jin and Zhao Sa mean.

The year name Yuanxin, but the real meaning is that from this year, this is a new era in the Zhaoshi, and the era when the empress ruled Daliang will never return.

Afterwards, the will of Li Ruyu as king.

Announce the world.

Li Ruyu was named king, and the courtyard at Xizhao Mountain was promoted to the royal palace.

The title of King of Chu.

The vassal state Chuzhou.

This is a bit interesting.

The coastal area of ​​Chuzhou, from Lin'an to Suzhou, from Suzhou to Yangzhou, and from Yangzhou to Chuzhou, happened to be between Kaifeng and Lin'an, and happened to be the territory controlled by the imperial guards.

After being named king, we naturally discussed the issue of vassalism.

Zhao Shi did not want to give Li Ruyu a chance to fight back - although they never understood that Li Ruyu always accepted it in the court, and even though he knew he wanted to undermine him, he still chose to accept it.

But that's the plan. Li Ruyu doesn't fight back, that's the best.

However, what was unexpected to Zhao Shi was that on the second day after he was appointed as king, Li Ruyu raised the question of when to join the vassal state in the court.

It surprised everyone.

Why is he?

In addition to Xie Lang's understanding, even Shu Xianggong was inexplicably confused.

Did Li Ruyu give up on his own initiative?

Didn't he know that even if he gave up, Zhao Shi would never tolerate him as an idle prince. After all, the Daliang Iron Ridge Army controlled by Kaifeng Xu Xiao and Junziqi really belonged to Li Ruyu.

This is something that Daliang Zhaoshi is intolerable.

Li Ruyu must die.

Although he didn't know what Li Ruyu sold in the gourd, since he took the initiative to propose that Zhao Sa and Zhou Miaoshu would go with the flow and propose how to deal with the vassal within half a year.

After all, it will take some time to build the Chu King's Mansion in Chuzhou.

Li Ruyu smiled, but said that one month was enough.

This made Zhou Miaoshu and Zhao Sa’s second monk confused. You, Li Ruyu, are so anxious to leave Lin'an, so whether you have a trap.

A few days later, when Zhao Sa and Zhou Miaoshu from Lin'an received spies from Kaifeng that the Iron Ridge Army had not changed anything, and Zhao Jin from the Northern Barbarians had already begun to return to the country, they met at the dynasty meeting and decided that Li Ruyu would be in the vassal state.

After one month.

In a few days, Li Ruyu would be in the vassal state, so the two positions of Zuo Sanqi Changshi and Tongzhi Privy Council, who were in power, would naturally be handed over. They would not be able to take these two important positions in the vassal state.

Li Ruyu was also very pleased and directly resigned.

However, although Zhou Miaoshu proposed the position of the Northern Fushi Office, Li Ruyu insisted on it. However, although he was the King of Chu, he also needed the Northern Fushi Office's embroidered spring sword to intimidate the strangers in the vassal areas.

Zhou Miaoshu didn't insist either.

Just a politician from the Northern Fushi Department, is there any difference between the right prince and the official position of a prefect?

After the court was scattered, Li Ruyu and Shu Gong said a few words, saying that he would go to the Privy Council to hand over the position of Tongzhi Privy Council in the afternoon, and now he would hand over the government affairs of Zuo Sanqi Changshi to Wei Xi first.

Mr. Shu just sighed and said, "I want to be quiet but the wind will not stop."

If you just give in, the whole world will be blessed.

But you, Li Ruyu, have to face the state of irreversible destruction.

Li Ruyu smiled and said without comment, why don’t Mr. Shu think that just a vassal seems to be empty, but it is also a dragon entering the deep sea.

With the Iron Ridge Army in hand, is it in Lin'an or Chuzhou?

No!

Mr. Shu's eyes lit up, and after thinking about something, he couldn't help but sigh, "There are talents in the country and the country."

Li Ruyu seems to be more above him in his official career.

This trick of borrowing the power of Zhao Shi seemed to be plotted step by step, but in fact, I am afraid that Li Ruyu was thinking about it.

As long as the Iron Ji Army was still surnamed Li, Lin'an's political affairs had no effect on Li Ruyu at all.

Once the Iron Ridge Army in Kaifeng is really entitled to Lin'an, it is fully qualified and capable of financial autonomy. After all, the Iron Ridge Army controls Kaifeng and the entire Sixteen Prefectures north of Yanyun.

Even from Shouzhou to Kaifeng, the Iron Ridge Army could swallow it with the flow.

Of course, it is still not as good as Jiangnan.

After being separated from the Shu Gong, Fan Xian, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, came up in a corner where no one was around and said with a smile: "The prince is about to be a vassal, and it is difficult to meet again in the future. It is better to leave a few more paintings of ink for the officials to comfort the officials' calligraphy and seek the best."

Li Ruyu looked speechless, "Didn't you have written two pictures for Mr. Fan?"

Fan Xian waved his hand and said, "How can two paintings be enough?"

Li Ruyu coughed, "It's not worth much, so Mr. Fan won't not understand this principle."

Fan Xian was not embarrassed by the idea of ​​pointing out his intentions, but instead stretched out his hand and raised his thumbs up: "The prince used his power to do this, and he was beautiful. From now on, he will be the dragon of the sea, with no one to trap him, free and free, and without losing the general trend. He is extremely wonderful. Behind the prince, is there a master in the temple who is guiding him? Xie Lang and Xie Shenzhi should not have such foresight."

This seems to be a compliment, but it is actually a pride.

In Fan Xian's eyes, his eyes seemed to be higher than Xie Lang, the assistant minister of the political affairs.

Li Ruyu was indeed a little surprised.

Even Mr. Shu didn't understand what Fan Xian knew, and he actually knew that this person's political sense was really sharp, and he smiled and said, "Not as brilliant as Mr. Fan said, it's just that he wants to stay away from right and wrong."

Fan Xian smiled, looking tacitly, someone came from afar, and this scholar who was likely to be the Minister of Rites said softly, "If you can return in the future, you will be in a daze, and you will be ineligible."

When I return to Lin'an, I'm afraid Li Ruyu will no longer be the prince.

Li Ruyu smiled, "When will you not drink it?"

However, people's hearts are separated from their belly.

Even if Fan Xian shows goodwill, he has to be careful, as it will be seen over time.
