In a side hall, Liu Tong clasped his fists and lowered his head, but his tone was very solemn and serious!
"Your Majesty, Shangguan Feng is from the Holy Temple, and she has a large number of court officials supporting her. Your Majesty, aren't you worried that she might plot against the government?"
Chen An asked in return: "Do you think she dares?"
"It's hard to say... His Majesty has given her a position as a Heavenly Official, and she's in charge of the six central ministries. This puts her at the head of all officials, with even more power than the Prime Minister, who also shares power with the Left and Right Prime Ministers. If she has any evil intentions, I'm afraid it will get out of control!"
Chen An smiled and said, "What you said makes sense, but aren't you in charge of the Mirror Bureau?"
"She is a Saint Realm expert. Now that our Sealed God Sect's Saint Realm has been severely damaged, the Sect Master is also returning to the Sealed God Sect, and His Majesty is going to the Polar Regions, I'm afraid no one can stop her!"
Chen An asked in return, "Who among us from the Fengshen Sect understands what's going on in the court?"
"Zhang You is also a member of our Fengshen Sect, he..."
When Chen An heard this, his eyes flashed: "Do you think Zhang You is capable of taking on this important task?"
Liu Tong clasped his fists and said, "I do think he's capable!"
If Zhang Youan gave some of the money, perhaps Chen An would really be willing to let him host it.
However, this old fellow Zhang You had a very unconventional mind and acted in a very wild way as a powerful official. He even suggested that he should exterminate all members of the royal family and cultivated his disciples and old friends with great fanfare.
Let Zhang You take charge. Although he will not betray, it is estimated that when he comes back, the whole court will be full of his followers and dissidents will be eliminated.
This is even more detrimental to the stability of the dynasty.
Chen An's eyes flashed slightly. Zhang You didn't say a word in the court, but Liu Tong came and spoke for Zhang You!
I'm afraid that Zhang You and Liu Tong are approaching.
Ever since they met Liu Tong, Chen An felt that he couldn't quite see through this guy's thoughts.
I even always felt that Liu Tong had other intentions, but it was not to betray Fengshen Sect, but to seek something else.
But Chen An had been observing for so long but still couldn't figure out what it was.
As for what Liu Tong once said, he wanted to marry another woman openly, but he didn't dare to do that since Lu Hongyi was the head of the sect!
When Chen An heard it, he actually just thought it was a joke.
Who can say anything if this guy wants to keep a woman secretly?
Moreover, although Lu Hongyi had issued a clear order that people from Fengshen Sect were not allowed to take concubines, he knew that some people secretly kept concubines.
Especially the people from the four major halls, there are also singers and dancers in Liu Tong Hall, and Lu Hongyi has never asked about these!
This shows that the reason given by the fat man is far-fetched.
However, since Liu Tong said this, Chen An was too lazy to ask.
After all, there are plenty of people in Fengshen Sect who can deal with a hall master!
Moreover, during the days that he worked with him, Liu Tong was hardworking and did not stick to the old-fashioned thinking of practitioners. He was even more useful than people like Cheng Wei and Duan Chi.
Seeing Chen An remained silent, Liu Tong lowered his head even more: "Your Majesty, I think Zhang You is the most suitable, and Shangguan Feng is a woman, this..."
Chen An said, "It is precisely because she is a woman that I feel comfortable using her. Do you think she can be an empress?"
"this……"
Chen An interrupted Liu Tong and said, "Besides, Shangguan Feng is trustworthy, so you don't have to worry. Just do your job well. Since you are the head of the Mingjing Division, if there are any problems, you can use the Yanhong Formation to notify me immediately!"
"But if you go to the polar region, I'm afraid the Yanhong Formation will not be usable." Liu Tong was still full of worry.
"Then keep this in mind and talk to me when I come back. You can't be unable to do even such a small thing, right? If you can't, then go back to Fengshenmen and I'll let someone else take over."
Liu Tong immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I promise to do it well!"
"That's right. Go ahead and inform all the officials in the court that disobeying my order is punishable by death!"
Chen An's voice instantly turned cold.
Liu Tong suddenly felt his heart tremble and quickly retreated.
…
Outside the Imperial City Lord's Mansion, Liu Tong was sitting in a sedan chair, and Zhang Yutang was also in it.
Zhang Yutang frowned a little: "It's obvious that the monarch is using Huangfu Yu's name to let Shangguan Feng preside over the government. A powerful saint must have great deterrent power!"
Liu Tong's eyes narrowed into a line on his fat face.
"Your Majesty has made up his mind and will not change it. Let's take it one step at a time!" Liu Tong said and closed his eyes.
Zhang Yutang said again, "Zhang You seems to be useless. I thought His Majesty would trust Zhang You, but I didn't expect Zhang You to be so disappointing. From now on, Palace Master should not have too much contact with Zhang You, otherwise it might bring trouble to Palace Master!"
Liu Tong opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Yutang: "Zhang You is from your Zhang family. Have you ever thought about joining forces with Zhang You?"
Zhang Yutang's expression turned serious. "Palace Master, there are several branches of our Zhang family. We don't interact with each other and have never formed alliances. Although our Zhang family is based on strategy, each branch has its own emphasis. Therefore, the descendants of each branch want their branch to become the orthodox branch of the Zhang family!"
"How to become the orthodox of the Zhang family?"
"That is to use the strategies and means of my own branch to rule the world, go down in history, and become the number one person in the Zhang family throughout history!" Zhang Yutang looked solemn and serious.
Liu Tong sighed: "Forget it, when the Lord returns from the Arctic, I will recommend you to him. I hope you can get what you want!"
Zhang Yutang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Palace Master, the king has no ambition to rule the world, he is too complacent!"
Liu Tong suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty is easygoing, but he also becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents. You will see!"
