"Master, can the slave dare to ask first, what kind of reward do you think should be given to the old coach?" Zhou An asked the empress, and only he dared to speak to the empress, and others dared not behave like this.

The empress asked him, but he kicked the ball back.

"I think that with the talent of Shangshu Li, martial arts can be the commander, literary talent, and minister..." The empress said carefully.

Donggan did not have the position of prime minister, but it was found in the previous dynasty, and in historical books, the so-called prime minister of the empress actually refers to the cabinet chief.

"So..." the empress said again, "I want to make Li Shangshu the chief minister of the cabinet chief, but... I asked many old ministers yesterday and had different opinions, so, Xiao Anzi, you think..."

The empress was asking for Zhou An’s advice.

The reason why this matter cannot be heard by others is because the empress is worried that it will be heard by the old coach. Whoever supports him as the chief minister of the cabinet and who opposes him as the chief minister of the cabinet? If the old coach finds out and opposes him, he may be irresistible.

Especially Zhou An’s opinions, the old coach should not be known.

It would be fine if Zhou An supports him, but nothing to say.

But if Zhou An objected, he would be found out by the old coach again, it would be a bad thing!

Although the Empress understands very well that as an emperor, it is good to master the balance method. If the internal and external ministers are not on the same side or have some disputes, that is good! But at this time, the Empress does not allow this situation and must unite!

It's already chaos enough. If there is any more chaos within the court, it will collapse!

Especially Zhou An and Li Guangshan, if they fight, God knows what will happen.

Zhou An had made a decision in his heart.

No support! Li Guangshan is not good for him as the chief minister of the cabinet.

But he didn't say it directly.

"Master, can you tell me in detail what the elders are saying?" Zhou An asked again, it can be said that he asked knowingly.

"Let's not talk about those who support it, just those who object." The empress picked up the spoon, drank the soup, and said repeatedly, "Wu Xukuan was the one who controlled the world's military power from the position of the chief minister of the cabinet. Li Shangshu and Wu Xukuan both served as the Grand Marshal of the Zhongzhou Army, and both had a high reputation in the army. If Li Shangshu also served as the chief minister of the cabinet, it would be the same... The lesson of the past is that they told me that they were afraid of repeating the same mistakes, and another Wu Xukuan would come out!"

"I don't think so." The empress paused and said, "Li Shangshu is old and said unlucky words, he will not live for a few years. There is no doubt that Li Shangshu's loyalty..."

"Also, some people think that Li Shangshu is not capable enough or has insufficient qualifications. Li Shangshu has been serving in the military before. He retired twenty years ago and returned for less than two months. His military talent is undeniable, but it is hard to say whether he can lead the cabinet to help me handle the government well... There is too little experience in this area. In comparison, at least three are more qualified to serve as the chief minister of the cabinet than him..."

Faction struggle!

Although the empress did not say it very much, Zhou An knew it and felt it.

Now the cabinet chief is empty, and a large number of experienced old ministers have returned. There are no less than five people who have retired from the cabinet alone. Although they have never served as the cabinet chief, if they have compared their qualifications, they are now qualified to serve as the cabinet chief.

In order to compete for the chief minister of the cabinet, they were secretly about to make human brains into dog brains.

Interpersonal relationships, which old minister in his seventies or eighties does not have a huge interpersonal relationship network?

The emergence of factions is inevitable!

The largest faction before was the "traitorous party group" led by Wu Xukuan. When Wu Xukuan was there, they all kept it honestly, or were annexed by the "traitorous party group". Now that the "traitorous party group" has been destroyed, they finally dared to emerge and finally dared to move.

To be honest, if Li Guangshan is really allowed to be the chief minister of the cabinet, it would be a good thing.

No matter how loud the opposition is, as long as Li Guangshan becomes the chief minister of the cabinet, he will be able to suppress people! Everyone must be honest!

But this is really not good for Zhou An.

Regardless of Princess Yunjing's matter, it is not a good thing for Zhou An personally! Li Guangshan will greatly hinder Zhou Anquan's footsteps of conquering the world! This guy is really too old and has made too much contribution, so Zhou An is difficult for him to calm him down.

"Master..." Zhou An put down his chopsticks, lowered his head and was silent for a moment before speaking, "I think the old general is not suitable for serving as the chief minister of the cabinet. He has too much military achievements. If he is the most powerful minister, I am afraid it is..."

"Do you doubt him?" The empress frowned instantly, her face suddenly became serious.

Zhou An has an East Factory under him. He doesn’t trust the old coach. Did he find out something?

The Empress is thinking too much!

"It's not distrust." Zhou An spoke.

"Why is that?" the empress breathed a sigh of relief and asked again.

She didn't understand anything. She thought Zhou An would support her. In this conversation, she wanted to get Zhou An's support! If Zhou An supports it, there would not even be any opposition in the court, and everyone would shut up!

The empress knew very well that Zhou An’s current influence.

Those old ministers dared to argue with the empress and kept admonishing the empress, but few dared to tell Zhou An about those things.

Because Zhou An is cruel and ruthless!

They can't afford to offend!

Zhou An was so intimidating because the empress "raised" it. The empress gave Zhou An again and again and again, giving Zhou An the right to kill people. The empress also knew how to use Zhou An!

In fact, the empress could have directly ordered Zhou An to openly support Li Guangshan as the chief minister of the cabinet. It is possible to do this, but there is no need for this. The empress would like to know Zhou An’s true thoughts!

"Master, you should understand that you must prevent problems before they happen." Zhou An said carefully, "I believe that Lao Shuai will never become the second Wu Xukuan. He is loyal to Dong Qian and you. However, when he really takes the position of Prime Minister of the cabinet, many things will not be controlled by him. Lao Shuai is not alone, his Li family is prosperous, and his interpersonal relationships are complicated. Lao Shuai is upright, but who can guarantee that each of his descendants is upright..."

"The old general serves as the chief minister of the cabinet. Although he can quickly stabilize the government in the short term,... Is the slave saying something that should not be said? Master, do you think that civil and military officials in the court listen to the old generals more or you more? Are you the emperor or he is the emperor?"

"Those people, they are around the old coach. When the Lord wants to do something drastic, the old coach has different opinions from you. If the old coach advises you, how many court officials and the old coach will advise you together? Are they really sincerely advising you, or are they due to the old coach's power?"

"The slave must declare again that the slave believes in the loyalty of the old man, that is, the old man will not rebel, but he just will not rebel. He wants Dong Qian to regain his prosperity again. He wants his own ideas. You also have your own ideas. You can't, you are convinced by the old man every time, right?"

The empress's face changed when she was told by Zhou An.

So scary!

In fact, Zhou An can also say something even more scary, such as telling the empress a story about "wearing a yellow robe".

But he felt that it was unnecessary.
