Chapter 1 Two Landscapes Under the Eaves
There is a garden behind the palace in Shangyun City, and there is a pavilion called Changle in the garden that covers an extremely large area. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Changle Pavilion.
All the eunuchs and palace maids in the imperial city know that now His Majesty will come to sit when he is fine, either to sit alone for a while, or to play a few games of Go with Mr. Wen, over time, as long as he can't see His Majesty the Emperor in the Imperial City after retiring from the dynasty, then His Majesty the Emperor must have gone to Changle Pavilion.
The weather was not very good early this morning, dark clouds were all over the sky, and the ministers didn't feel anything when they went to court, and most of them thought that even if it rained, they would at least have to wait for a while, but they didn't expect that when they came out of the court, it was already crackling and raining heavily.
The rain poured down, splashing on the ground and splashing countless silver splashes.
The sound was like a crackling sound like dried beans stir-frying in a pot.
The ministers looked at the heavy rain with sad faces, they didn't take it seriously earlier, so they didn't bring umbrellas, it would be good if it rained, how could they go back to this rain.
But after all, it is summer rain, and it comes quickly, and it will naturally go fast.
Therefore, none of the ministers who dared to brave the rain stood under the eaves of the main hall, chatting in twos and threes, passing the time when it was raining, and when the rain stopped, or when the rain was light, they could leave.
Since ancient times, no matter all dynasties and generations, there have been party struggles and gatherings, just as since ancient times, civil and military forces have been light.
There are cliques of civil officials and scholars who hug and form groups, there are groups of military generals who hug and gather, there are also independent parties of families that have gained a foothold in the court, and there are officials from all over the world who have united into a force because they are not familiar with the place.
It's just that now, Emperor Liu Pi's methods are extremely feminine, as if he wants to deliberately target these forces formed by the party, and has successively issued dozens of decrees since he came to power, which does not seem to be abnormal, and it is understandable, but in the field, these formed parties are killed by each other, borrowing the hands of the other party to deal with them, and the snipe and clam are not bloody when they fight each other.
There is always one side stronger and one side weaker to hurt each other, so in the end, the stronger side will always completely destroy the weak side.
Although Liu Pi was happy to see such a scene, he did not do it, but when the weak side was about to collapse, he stretched it out to let this side recover some vitality, and the strong side took a shot to suppress it, which would not let these forces gain too much power.
So over time, these formed party forces were all played around in Liu Pi's hands.
The Taifu Party where Xie Dongyang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is located, because the leader is the Taifu Li Hanze of the current dynasty, and now there are only a few people in the temple who have been sealed to the level of the pillar country, and the big pillar country has been sealed to Wang Peng, who has a different surname, and Wang Peng is far away in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, so there are only two in the imperial city, one is the left pillar country, the Taishi Yang Shanchang of the dynasty, and the other is the right pillar country, the Taifu Li Hanze of the dynasty.
Yang Shanchang was born in a scholarly family at this time, and was influenced by Confucian learning since he was a child, and he had a scholarly talent in his heart, and he has always disdained the people in these temples to make friends with the party.
Therefore, the limelight in the temple largely fell on Li Hanze's head.
Since there is a figure like Li Hanze as the leader, the Taifu Party is naturally beautiful in the temple for a while, and this is indeed the case, but all this is in the eyes of Liu Pi.
Liu Pi, who is extremely skilled in stretching and suppressing in his heart, naturally wants to start suppressing the Taifu Party at this time.
Therefore, in recent years, the Taifu Party has often been extremely weak, and many officials in the party have been deposed, not to mention that even the Taifu Li Hanze has been somewhat suppressed by Liu Pi.
Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of beatings of water dogs, and the Taifu Party, which has always been prosperous, has also been suppressed for a while, and those officials who have been bullied by the Taifu Party have not hesitated to spit a little bit of saliva in their mouths, pointing fingers, and laughing behind their backs.
The family is ruined!
It's just that at the beginning of this year, at the royal banquet on the first day of the first lunar month, the Taifu Party actually got two cups of extremely honorable Junchen wine.
A cup is naturally Taifu Li Hanze's.
And the other cup turned out to be Xie Dongyang, the secretary of the Criminal Department.
Except for Li Qian, the Qing of Dali Temple, no one knew why Xie Dongyang got a glass of Junchen wine.
So people can't understand it, and they don't dare to think about it, because to a large extent, that's what the emperor meant.
What the emperor meant was something they could guess at will.
Even if he lent them three more guts, he didn't dare to guess the emperor's meaning too deliberately.
However, they couldn't guess why Xie Dongyang got the meaning of this glass of wine, but they probably knew a little bit about this meaning.
Xie Dongyang wants to be reused by His Majesty the Emperor.
Xie Dongyang is also a member of the Taifu Party, so it means that the Taifu Party is about to gain power again.
Whether this is true or not, but the signal sent from the emperor is what it means.
To be an official, you must not only have a certain strength, but also have the ability to listen to all directions and see the eight ways to a large extent.
These officials who can mix in the capital to be officials will naturally not lack these, and soon the Taifu Party, which was once neglected, became the object of their stammering.
Needless to say, the old lady Li Hanze naturally has no need to say that Xie Dongyang, who has received the wine of the monarch and minister, has been in the market these days, and the officials have moved abnormally, as if he has become the number two person in the Taifu Party.
No, because of the rain, all the officials were trapped under the eaves of the main hall, and soon many officials came to Xie Dongyang's side, greeted him a few times, and even chatted a few words, for fear of being unfamiliar.
Xie Dongyang didn't care whether these officials had beaten them up or not, they all smiled back.
On the first day of the first lunar month, there was another person who could get Junchen wine as puzzling as Xie Dongyang.
Dali Temple Qing Li Qian.
At this time, Li Qian was also standing among the hundred officials under the eaves.
It's just that Li Qian has not joined the one-party dispute.
Although he did not form a party, as a minister who got the wine of the monarch and ministers, it stands to reason that at this time, he should be like Xie Dongyang, and many officials and ministers around him came to say hello or chat a few words.
Li Qian had no one around him, just like a grass carp among the many koi fish, which seemed out of place with the surroundings.
In fact, it is not that no officials came to greet Li Qian, after the first day of the new year, Li Qian, like Xie Dongyang, was scolded by officials, but Xie Dongyang was different in that from that day on, Li Qian's mansion refused to be a guest.
Walking around with people is not as good as it used to be.
Most officials understand this behavior as saying that you Li Qian is about to gain power, and you look down on these officials, so they will ignore them.
Since they can't get a good face, then why do they have to come up to see a cold ass.
In fact, Li Qian's behavior was not because of what these officials thought, but because he felt that after getting the wine of the monarch and minister, he always had a different feeling, and he couldn't say it, but it was there, as if he had a pair of eyes staring at him behind his back, which made him very uncomfortable, so he reduced a lot of time to come forward.
Of course, there is another point, which is one thing he is secretly preparing to do.
So at this time, he naturally has to keep a low profile.
Two glasses of the same Junchen wine have now formed two different landscapes.
