Changsun Wuji is very depressed now. He is different from Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Yaojin is discouraged and really wants to stay away from all this and go home to enjoy his old age. But he retreats without retreating. This power is addicted to, and no one can easily give up power. He resigns voluntarily, in fact, in order to protect his power in the court. It doesn't matter if he is alive. As long as he is alive, his influence will be.

Even if no one in the court dares to underestimate him now, his words still work!

After finally getting along for a while, he did not expect that Han Yuan and Lai Ji were suddenly revoked from the third rank of the Tongzhongshu Sect. Although they were still the heads of the Tongxia and the Chungshu Sect, some officials in the Chungshu Sect now obeyed the orders of Li Yifu instead of Lai Ji's orders. The reason is very simple. Li Yifu is now the third rank of the Tongzhongshu Sect. He is very close to the emperor. You are not going to be able to listen to the emperor's orders.

Their power was greatly reduced, which Changsun Wuji could not bear, because these two people were really important to him.

The only good news is that Han Yi has made great contributions and has slightly made up for the inner trauma of Changsun Wuji.

Now Changsun Wuji is thinking about one thing at home, how to protect Han Yuan and Lai Ji, because their status is very embarrassing and has reached a precarious level.

"Master! The Minister of Revenue asked for a visit."

The butler suddenly walked in and said respectfully.

Why did he come? Changsun Wuji was stunned. He knew that Gao Luxing would not come without any major events. He felt a sudden shock. The three provinces had already lost more than half of them. If something happened to the six ministries under the Shangshu Province, he would really faint. This Shangshu Province is his base camp and said, "Come in!"

After a while, Gao Luxing walked in and saluted, "I have met my brother!"

"It's time for the fulfillment, please sit down!"

Changsun Wuji reached out and signaled.

Gao Luxing sat opposite Changsun Wuji. After the tea ceremony was on hand and the servant stepped back, he glanced at Changsun Wuji and said, "Brother seems to have a bad face recently. Could it be that he is sick?"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "Perform, you don't have to go around here. Why is my bad face? Don't you know?"

Gao Luxing said, "It's because of the minister's servant and the minister's lord!"

Changsun Wuji nodded and sighed, "Actually, it's all my fault. I didn't stop them at that time. To be honest, I didn't expect that Your Majesty's resentment towards Deng Shan would be so deep."

Gao Luxing said, "Why don't you know if your brother can stop the situation from getting worse?"

"If I had a solution, I wouldn't look like this."

Changsun Wuji said, suddenly looking at Gao Luxing and said, "Are you here because of this today?"

Gao Luxing lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, saying, "Do you have a plan, don't know if it's possible?"

Changsun Wuji was overjoyed. Gao Luxing didn't speak much, but once he spoke, it would be feasible. He hurriedly said: "Speak quickly!"

Gao Luxing said: "Brother, no matter whether you want it or not, Empress Wang has passed away, and the new Empress has also entered the main palace. If we continue to point the finger at this new Empress, it will only make the gap between us and Your Majesty bigger and bigger. We should no longer oppose Your Majesty. This is not a wise move!"

Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "I understand this, otherwise I wouldn't have resigned on my own initiative, but the problem is that they won't be willing to let us go."

"This is the problem. We should not approach step by step, but protect ourselves."

Gao Luxing said: "At this point, who is still afraid of us, and who is afraid of us the most, not Your Majesty, but Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu and others. But if you come forward to deal with them, Your Majesty will naturally not stand by and watch, and the conflict will still arise between Your Majesty and You. This is also the reason why you cannot perform in this matter, Brother."

Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "It's reasonable!"

Gao Luxing said again: "Since the elder brother and his brother's power in the court are inconvenient to fight against Li Yifu and others, we can only find another way."

Changsun Wuji said: "What are your tricks?"

Gao Luxing said: "As far as I know, although Han Yi and Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong are both supporters of the queen, they have developed irreducible hatred. It is just because Han Yi's official position in the court is not high and cannot have more conflicts with Li Yifu and others. However, if Han Yi's official rank is high enough and he occupies a key position, the conflict between them will inevitably break out. In this way, Li Yifu and others will regard Han Yi as their biggest threat, not your brother."

Changsun Wuji's expression became solemn when he heard this, and said, "What do you mean?"

Gao Luxing said: "Now that the Lu State bus has returned military power, and the subordinates of the Shizhong and the Zhongshu Ling have also lost most of their power. Then, their targets will definitely be placed on the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel, especially the Ministry of Revenue. I guess Your Majesty doesn't want me to continue to take charge of the Ministry of Revenue."

Cheng Yaojin and Changsun Wuji had a close relationship, but they were suspicious of Li Zhi. They secretly ordered people to monitor Cheng Yaojin. This was really terrifying. Gao Luxing was Changsun Wuji's cousin, and he also controlled financial powers that were as important as military power. Gao Luxing certainly felt that the crisis had arrived. The emperor would definitely take back financial powers the next step. He was not greedy for power. He actually wanted to hand over the power to His Majesty as soon as possible, just to protect himself. Didn't you just want to take back the power? I'll give it to you, just don't kill me.

But now the Ministry of Revenue is the only one that has not been infiltrated yet. They are all forces of Guanlong Group. This is not something that Gao Xuan can make decisions. He must ask Changsun Wuji for instructions.

When Changsun Wuji heard this, he couldn't help but frown!

Gao Luxing said again: "I am incompetent, I am afraid I will not be able to protect the Ministry of Revenue. But I think it is better to hand it over to Han Yi first instead of letting the Ministry of Revenue fall into the hands of Li Yifu and others."

Tacit understanding!

Changsun Wuji was still thinking about how to cleverly lead Gao Luxing to recruit Han Yi to the Ministry of Revenue, but he didn't expect Gao Luxing to raise it first. He frowned and said, "Han Yi?"

Gao Luxing had no idea that Changsun Wuji and Han Yi had secretly colluded, and said, "I know that my brother hates Han Yi, but my brother should take the overall situation into consideration! Let Han Yi enter the Ministry of Revenue, first, it can prevent the households from falling into the hands of Li Yifu and others. This Ministry of Revenue is related to the people of the world. Li Yifu and others are despicable, cunning, and narrow-minded. If they are allowed to control the national treasury, the consequences will be unimaginable. Second, Han Yi's status has improved, and he can still restrain Li Yifu and the others, divide the queen's power, and win us a chance to breathe."

Changsun Wuji laughed and said, "The most important point is that you already think Han Yi is your best successor, I wonder if I was wrong?"

Gao Luxing smiled awkwardly and nodded, "What my brother said is good. I think Han Yi's talent is far better than me in terms of finance."

Changsun Wuji said: "But Han Yi's virtues have not been convinced. Can you guarantee that he will not be the same as Li Yi's mansion when he goes to the Ministry of Revenue?"

Gao Luxing smiled and said, "The biggest temptation of the Ministry of Revenue lies in money, but with Han Yi's ability, he does not need to be corrupt and abuse the law, and can also make more money. In addition, although Han Yi does something shameless, he is far better than Li Yi's mansion, Xu Jingzong and others in terms of major issues. He is indeed ambitious, but at the same time, he has never done anything to hurt the country. He still has the people in his heart, which shows that he is not bad by nature. More importantly, I want to promote Dai Ji, but will Your Majesty allow it?"

Changsun Wuji felt a hundred willingness in his heart, but he couldn't show it. He pretended to struggle for a while and said, "But don't forget, Han Yi was also worried that we would take revenge on him. How do you guarantee that he thought differently from Li Yifu?"

Gao Luxing lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a moment before saying, "I can't guarantee this, but the two evils are the least."

Changsun Wuji looked at it and said, "It seems that you are very confident in Han Yi."

Gao Luxing said: "My move is just taking advantage of the situation!"

When Changsun Wuji saw that the temperature was almost the same, if you take advantage of the situation, I will take advantage of the situation and follow the situation and say, "If you really do what you say, I agree." At this point, he pretended to think for a while and said, "Since you said that, then let's follow your words."

"Thank you brother for your understanding!"

Why Gao Luxing said this? A very important reason why he recommended Han Yi to take office is that he also wanted to retreat like Cheng Yaojin, and the Ministry of Revenue is a must-fight for the court. After all, he has backbone. Since your emperor does not trust me, I just don’t do it. He is not very obsessed with power, but he feels a little sorry for Changsun Wuji to do so, so he feels grateful and guilty.

After receiving Changsun Wuji's nod, Gao Luxing immediately rushed to the palace. He wanted to take advantage of Han Yi's great contribution to hand over the power to Han Yi. If the reward was given, it would be too late.

Li Zhi has been busy with rewards recently. He has always focused on the main ministers. Now this area has been consolidated, and Changsun Wuji's power has retreated. However, in the army, he has not moved much, especially in the military important areas outside Chang'an. He has no suitable reason. This is a very good opportunity. He can finally use his power to promote some generals. This is the great emperor's grace. In the past, Changsun Wuji planned to write a list of promoted officials. So of course those officials are all aiming at Changsun Wuji, not him. If the emperor wants to win over the ministers, he must first give kindness so that others will support you. I heard Gao Lu's request for a meeting, and was a little surprised. After all, it was already evening and he said curiously: "Why is your dear friend asking for a meeting?"

Gao Luxing sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I am old and my eyes are not enough to take on this important task. I would like to ask Your Majesty to allow me to retire and return home."

Li Zhi was stunned at first and said, "I haven't heard of my dear eyes!"

Gao Luxing said: "Although the empress does not suffer from eye disease, they will be like this when people get old. The position of Minister of Revenue is crucial and you must overestimate yourself. Some mistakes will cause major losses to the country."

Li Zhi immediately understood that Gao Luxing must have been influenced by Cheng Yaojin and planned to return the financial power to him. He wanted to take it back, but Gao Luxing has been in good order and he cannot find a suitable candidate for the time being. The Ministry of Revenue is not on his agenda at the moment, so he said: "My dear is honest and good at managing the Ministry of Revenue in an orderly manner. The ministers praised him. Under the control of his beloved, I have always been very relieved. I also care about my beloved's health. However, there is no suitable candidate now, so I would like to share my worries for a few more years."

You can't even trust Cheng Yaojin, and will you still trust me?

Gao Luxing didn't believe him anymore and said, "Your Majesty, if there is no suitable candidate, I will never dare to let go. However, now I believe that there is a talented man in the court, who is more suitable to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue than I did."

Li Zhi said curiously: "I wonder who I am referring to?"

Gao Luxing said: "The Royal Special Envoy Han Yi."

Li Zhi was stunned after hearing this!
