The incident in the southwest had entranced the entire ee in the atmosphere
The people from the Court of Judicial Review and Chainally come to visit hiuards who occasionally came in to deliver food also seemed distracted
A somber air pervaded the capital
It see silently said to hi could do nothing but quietly wait
"Chong-er!"
It was ten days later that he nextuncle was dressed in his court robes, his face hard and grave
Upon seeing his big uncle, Wang Chong felt his eyes begin to twitch while a terrible foreboding suddenly rose from his heart
"The I has been ordered to lead the 180,000 elites of the Annan Protectorate and i for his offense against the Great Tang!"
"What?!"
Wang Chong's heart went cold at this news, sending a shiver running throughout his body Suddenly thinking of so Uncle, how could this be? Didn't you, King Song, and Consort Taizhen all oppose? Were you three not enough?"
King Song, the Wang Clan, and Yang Zhao's backer Consort Taizhen were three ureheads The united strength of those three should have wielded enough influence to alter the court's decision
Wang Gen sighed and began to give a detailed recount
AfterGen al Chong's sworn brother Yang Zhao, the three were co the court's decision
But both Wang Gen and Wang Chong had underestiht as he suddenly asked, "The Yao Clan?"
"If it was just the Yao Clan and King Qi, it would have been fine!" Wang Gen said with a shake of his head Only those present would understand the intensity of that court debate When the perennial hawks Wang Gen and King Song suddenly opposed the ith Mengshe Zhao, the entire court was stunned
The hall had been silent for a very long ti Qi were evena watch on the Wang Clan and King Song this entire ti Qi and the Yao Clan, who had always been in favor of disarmament, suddenly took the opposite stance and loudly criticized King Song and the Wang Clan
They said that these tere colluding with Geluofeng, had been paid off by hishe Zhao But everything would have been fine if that was all
After all, the Yao Clan and King Qi were still inferior to the co, and Consort Taizhen But in the end, someone completely unexpected, a most eminent yet also most inconspicuous person suddenly stepped forward and completely altered the result of this court debate
"Who?"
Wang Chong's heart tightened
Wang Gen gave a long sigh before giving the answer
"The Priaped, and his pupils constricted He found hile word
"Li Genu1…"
This na Chong's mind, it conjured countless hts flew like lightning through his her than the Prime Minister He was truly beneath only one and above the rest
Both the Wang Clan and Yao Clan were closely related to this position It was the pri Clan's reputation as a clan ofClan's Old Master, the revered Duke Jiu, and the Yao Clan's Old Master, Yao Chong, had already retired from the position of Prime Minister
Someone ne held the post of Prime Minister
Li Genu really was thatImperial Court, this person was abnormally low-key Never before had the holder of such an illustrious position as Priotten who he was
However, Wang Chong had never dared to underestimate him
"I didn't think that it would actually be hi's eyes
In all of the Great Tang Dynasty, the one Wang Chong feared theQi, but this Prie of his post
In all of the Great Tang E uncle knew just how terrifying this norenial Pri the 'Lord Pri had never expected the Prime Minister to break custoht of the Yao Clan, King Qi, and the Pri Clan, King Song, and Consort Taizhen
"…And there was one other thing At the crucialQi and the Yao Clan!"
"Ah!"
Wang Chong was co was part of Consort Taizhen's faction and they had a very close relationship In fact, it had been Zhangchou Jianqiong who had helped Yang Zhao travel to the capital
Consort Taizhen and Yang Zhao opposed this war, yet Zhangchou Jianqiong, the Minister of War, had stood with King Qi No one could have expected this
One Prime Minister could still be dealt with, but with Minister of War Zhangchou Jianqiong… the court debate was decided
Wang Chong fell quiet
"There was nothing to be done about that His position as Minister of War still isn't stable, and he is also from the Annan Protectorate There was a probleine how enerals in the Bureau of Military Personnel under his cochou Jianqiong flinched here, he would face a great deal of opposition as Minister of War in the future," Wang Gen said helplessly
