Chapter 41 National Security Department

Whether the details are seen or not, a reality has been put in front of everyone, that is, Xu Jinghongsheng, who has proved his ability with his own performance. Many officials looked at him at this time and looked a little wrong. Such a fierce and decisive killer came from this teenager, which shows his cruelty.

And among these people, the most unacceptable nature is Fang Yuanshan. This time, he can be regarded as a complete failure. Not only did he not take the opportunity to remove Xu Jinghong, but also grew his prestige, and even his masters died here. How can the owner of the Fang family, who has never suffered much loss, endure it? But when he was about to attack, he suddenly resisted, not because he was rational, but because he found that Xu Jinghong's eyes swept his throat, which made him feel a cool breath from head to toe for no reason, and he dared not move any more.

He Gang's theory of martial arts is not bad, and what's more powerful is that he seizes opportunities and fierce means. Even in front of the emperor and his ministers, he dared to kill as long as Fang Yuanshan ordered him. However, he did not expect that Xu Jinghong was not inferior in these two aspects, and his martial arts and plots were even stronger. Such a character made Fang Yuanshan afraid for a while and dared not be embarrassed again.

But this does not mean that no one will trouble Xu Jinghong. The Fang family has a lot of vassals in the court. Now is the time for them to stand out for the main family. Just as Xu Jinghong returned the knife into the sheath and returned it to the imperial army, an official had strode out and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, please take this rude man who dares to use force to kill in front of the emperor! Otherwise, where is the majesty of my court!"

This sound also quickly reminded other people who were shocked by the scene just now, many families who had a relationship with Xu Jinghong, and their vassals echoed: "Yes, killing people in front of the imperial court is no different from bullying the king. Please order this person to take down to defend the majesty of our court!"

The emperor was even more angry when he saw these people speak so shamelessly. But it was not easy for him to deny them immediately, otherwise everyone would know that Xu Jinghong was valued by the emperor, which would be very detrimental to his next plan. At this moment, a man stood up to speak for Xu Jinghong. It was Xu Zhengnian: "Your Excellency's words are too unreasonable. Xu Jinghong has said that his martial arts are for killing people, and His Majesty also promised him not to pursue it. What, now that the result comes out, you are talking like this? Do you want to fall into His Majesty's injustice, or is there something else?

"Yes, your words are really ridiculous. Obviously, it was decided before without any restrictions. What's wrong with killing someone now? Isn't it blamed that this person's skills are not as good as others?" Immediately, many vassals of the Xu family also came out to help their marquis speak.

Perhaps in terms of momentum, a single Xu family can't compare with the union of the Fang family and many family forces, but after all, this is on their side, but it is not useful for many people. After some debate, it was naturally the Fang family and others who lost the battle. And at this time, Fang Yuanshan also lost his fighting spirit because he was swept away by Xu Jinghong's threatening eyes. In the end, this episode could only stop.

Now that this layer has been exposed quickly, it's time to get to the point. After returning to the hall, the emperor said, "Lord, Xu Jinghong has used his strength to prove that the previous credit was indeed obtained by his own hands. The court will reward you for your achievements. How do you think you should reward this person who has made great contributions to the country?

"I think that the meritorious service of the generals is nothing more than rewarding silver and silk, and the promotion of knighthood. The former is determined by the Ministry of Household. This title... After all, he is still young. I'm afraid that some people will not accept it. It's better to be promoted to his position. Ye Mingyang stood up again and said.

Although his words still have the meaning of suppressing Xu Jinghong, there is also a certain reason. Although the Song Dynasty also has a precedent of military meritorious service, if such a young man, and there is almost no *, if he is really given the title, it is bound to arouse the dissatisfaction of many people, but it will hurt Xu Jinghong. This is indeed the most formal way to promote the official position.

"I don't know what position I should give him?" The emperor asked again.

"Xu Jinghong turned out to be just a team in the army, with no quality and no level. This continuous great achievement has given him an appropriate promotion. Well, what do you think of raising him to the position of five-grade general? Ye Mingyang had already planned and immediately gave another plan.

"Ye Situ is really fair. This position is the most suitable!" Immediately, many people agreed. Most of these people are people who have a holiday with Xu Jinghong. After they can no longer stop Xu Jinghong from becoming an official, they naturally hope to keep his power to the lowest. And this partial general with only a false title naturally meets their expectations.

To be honest, it has been super promoted to the lowest officer in an army to a partial general. In hundreds of years, no one has ever been promoted so fast. However, the rank of general is too vague. Although it is the same five grades, it can't be compared with the middle-level generals in the army with thousands of troops.

Both the emperor and Xu Zhengnian can easily see through this, but they can't crack it for a while. Finally, they have to acquiesce: "Ye Situ is really old-fashioned. The promotion of this position is indeed suitable for Xu Jinghong's credit."

Everyone was relieved to see that the matter had been settled. No matter how powerful Xu Jinghong is, a nominal general can make him completely useless. And as long as he is in Beijing, everyone has a chance to deal with him slowly, which is really the best result.

But their joy was just born, and the emperor said again: "This position as a general is indeed enough, but I think the court should still use a talent like Xu Jinghong." Seeing that everything is going to deviate from his budget, even if it may bring unnecessary trouble, the emperor must come out.

"But... Your Majesty, there is no vacancy in any position in the court, let alone a position suitable for Xu Jinghong. In my opinion, it is not too late to let him stay in Beijing for a period of time and let him take office after the vacancy in the position. At this time, Chu Ling, the minister of the Ministry of Public Affairs, also stood up and said. Although his daughter is interested in Xu Jinghong, he doesn't know it. And even if he knows, in order to stand in the court, he will not stand on Xu Jinghong's side with the Ye family.

As soon as this word comes out, it seems that everything is even more fixed. Most of the appointments and removal of officials in the DPRK are led by the Ministry of Officials and assisted by the Ministry of War. Now that the Minister of Officials says so, there is obviously no place for Xu Jinghong to sit on it. This made those who were a little nervous again relieved, and he felt that today's matter should be over.

But the emperor disappointed them again and saw him shake his head gently: "I also know that there is no vacancy in the court, and there is indeed no existing position for Xu Jinghong to take on. But I still feel that he has a place to use it."

"I don't know what the holy meaning is?" Xu Zhengnian asked cooperatively. At the same time, many vassals of the Xu family and a few military officers who are still loyal to the royal family also asked one after another, but it also added momentum to the emperor's next words.

Zhao Zhe knew that this time it would be related to the next series of deployments, which was related to whether the power could return to the emperor, and he also began to be a little nervous. After coughing, he said slowly, "I think the defense force in Daliang City is still insufficient now. Otherwise, those unscovered gangsters would not be so rampant. Whether it is the Gyeonggi government or the patrol camp, their ability is not enough to protect the safety of the people, so I plan to open another government office to protect the people outside these two government. And this government, I plan to let Xu Jinghong make the decision. I don't know what the officials want?"

"Ah?" The ministers were stunned when they heard this, but they didn't expect the emperor to come again.

The fastest reaction is those officials who have been instructed by Zhao Zhe for a long time. They agreed, "Your Majesty is clear. Nowadays, there are indeed many hidden dangers in Daliang City, but the patrol camp and the Gyeonggi Province are limited to solve the problem. It is appropriate to set up a new government gate to deal with these problems!"

Other ministers wanted to oppose it, but they couldn't make a decent excuse for a moment. Because the method proposed by the emperor this time was more than everyone expected, so that they could find out the reason for opposition in an instant, and it was really difficult for them to be reasonable. In the end, they had to be silent.

"Zhongqing, do you have different opinions? In my opinion, Xu Jinghong can eradicate those gangsters in a short time, and he has great ability in this regard. With his government, Daliang City will definitely be more stable and prosperous!"

"What Your Majesty said is true, and the old minister sincerely supports it!" Xu Zhengnian naturally hoped to see such a result and gave an attitude earlier than others. In this way, the people of the Xu family naturally expressed their approval, which made other officials have to express their positions.

In the end, with a sudden means, the emperor finally got his wish. He looked at the officials with different looks below with a smile and said to himself, "Wait, the good play will be staged soon!"

"I don't know what your majesty thinks the name of this new government?" Someone asked jokingly.

"This... I have also thought about opening this government for the stability of the capital. Only when the capital is stable can the whole country be stable in the Song Dynasty. Let's call it Guoansi!" The emperor gave the name of the new government. Since even the establishment of the government can't be opposed, naturally no one disputes the name.

No one would have thought that this newly established Guoan Division would soon become a government house for the ministers to talk about tigers...
