Chen Yizhong, a person from Wenzhou Mansion on Liangzhejiang East Road, was famous all over the world as a teenager for the impeachment of the minister Ding Daquan in the book, and was known as one of the six gentlemen, and after entering politics, he also showed his innate talent for political struggle, first took refuge in Jia Rudao Qingyun, Jia Rudao immediately reversed after the fall of Jia Rudao, and was promoted to prime minister, Empress Dowager Xie was forced to surrender and entrusted the dynasty to Chen Yizhong and Jiang Wanzai, in the process of exile, the prime minister still did not forget the infighting, squeezed out Wen Tianxiang, and degraded Lu Xiufu, When the first little emperor died of fear due to falling into the sea, Chen Yizhong went to Zhancheng to borrow troops under the pretext of going to occupy the city and never returned.

Now, the exiled court has come back to life, Yashan has won a great victory, Lian Keguang and Quanzhou have killed Pu Shougeng, forced Zhang Hongfan away, and sought a firm foothold in Liuqiu, opened up the situation, and Chen Yizhong, who was far away in the city, hurried to try to regain power.

However, the position of the right prime minister has been sat by Wen Tianxiang, and it is impossible to give it to Chen Yizhong, and Chen Yizhong, as the former prime minister, cannot hold a lower official position, so the imperial court appointed Chen Yizhong as a military important matter in Pingzhang after discussion.

This official title was set up in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the status was above the prime minister, just a kind of highest honor, and he did not participate in the decision-making of the court, but after the southern crossing, the important affairs of the military state of Pingzhang became the highest substantive position of the imperial court.

After Yashan, the trend of infighting in the imperial court began to appear again, the government-in-exile is good at everything, but there are too many redundant personnel, and they are all high-grade officials, these people can't fight, and they can't do practical things, only the people who are doing poetry and writing, drinking and drinking tea and prostitutes, and dumping each other, fighting for power, Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu are both pragmatics, no need for them, Chen Yizhong immediately gathered up this group of people after he came.

On a painting boat in Kaohsiung Port, Lord Chen, an important military affairs officer in Pingzhang, and a group of officials above the third rank wearing purple robes and goldfish bags gathered together to drink and talk happily.

Chen Yizhong is still in the stage of gathering intelligence, and many major events have happened in the days since he left, and he needs to re-understand the basic situation of the imperial court.

The scattered officials said that Chen Yizhong had a general understanding, and the current imperial court was divided into three factions, and the strongest was still the military generals led by the privy deputy envoy, the marching marshal and the governor of the army and horses, Zhang Shijie, followed by Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu, and the third force was a group of new demons, who replaced the original Hou Party and became the closest person to the Empress Dowager Yang and the little emperor.

Chen Yizhong has been in the political arena for many years, and immediately made a decision, first take the party and the party, and pinch the front secretary of the palace in his hands, Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu are not their opponents, in terms of qualifications and abilities, they are much worse, it is not difficult to settle these two people, there is only one Zhang Shijie left, but keep it, after all, someone has to fight.

He has two cards in his hand, one is to supervise the imperial history, the other is Jiang Cheng, supervising the imperial history needless to say, a legal tool used to bite people, Jiang Cheng is the son of Jiang Wanzai, the former commander of the palace, was demoted because of discord with Zhang Shijie, this is an important chess piece, Chen Yizhong has thought about it, squeezed Liu Yan straight down, let Jiang Chengguan reinstate, master the forbidden army to do things calmly, after all, exile overseas, the emperor is young, military power is the last word.

Liu Yanzhi has too many handles to grasp, he usually likes to eat and live with the people and soldiers, go to the fields to plant seedlings, go into the mountains to hunt, at least misbehave, lose official body, at worst, it is to invite people to buy people's hearts, intent to rebel, and he often goes in and out of the palace forbidden, and has a very close relationship with the female officials around the little emperor.

"Let's do it for now." Chen Yizhong said.

"My lord, I'm afraid it won't work, but it will startle the snake." Some sensible officials persuaded that the Hou Party was a faction of real power, and a few frivolous words from the officials would certainly not defeat them, but would instead cause frenzied retaliation.

Chen Yizhong smiled and said nothing, he knew in his heart, what is the Holy Family of the Heavens, what is the heart of the People's Army, as long as he commits a big taboo, even if his merit is higher than the sky, it is in vain, how did Yue Fei die back then, has everyone forgotten, everyone is golden, and the rumor is repeated a thousand times It becomes the truth, as long as he keeps preaching that Liu Yanzhi is going to rebel, and if he says too much, the official family will naturally be suspicious.

But who will come out has become a big problem, the officials here are all elites, and they can give advice, but they can't charge into battle, so the heavy task of impeaching Liu Yanzhi fell on the young superintendent of the imperial history, this person is named Lu Yueli, and is the nephew of the same clan of the former Xiangyang guard general Lu Wenhuan, Lu Wenhuan rebelled after five years of hard work in Xiangyang, and became the pawn of Boyan, and the Lu family surrendered all over the house, but this Lu Yueli fled south alone, and only recently kept up with the large army in Guangzhou, the young man has a tendon, and his temper is rushing, and he is the most suitable to use as a gunman.

……

After many high-level games, the positions of civil and military officials have been newly adjusted, Wen Tianxiang no longer serves as a privy envoy, and gave up this position to Zhang Shijie, he only served as the right prime minister, and the civil and military were separated to avoid monopolizing power, which was a good thing for the imperial court.

Every day, the right prime minister will deal with daily government affairs in the capital hall, every seven days, civil and military officials report to the emperor in the court, called the court meeting, every court meeting, Pingzhang military affairs Chen Yizhong will participate.

The next day, above the court, the superintendent of the imperial history Lu Yueli wrote to the emperor, formally impeaching the former secretary of the palace and commanding Liu Yanzhi and others to disturb the palace and intend to rebel.

This is a rod to overturn a boatload of people, not only impeached Liu Yanzhi, but also put all the eight immortals into it, Lu Yueli is upright, high-spirited, put on a look of unyielding, kneeling straight on the court, there is a posture that the court will not get up if he does not immediately kill the traitor.

Chen Yizhong secretly said that it was not good, this Xiao Lu was earnest, and he made too many enemies, not only joined Liu Yanzhi, but also participated in the party patriotism and others, which made it clear that he wanted to offend the queen mother.

The little emperor is not sensible, he sits on the dragon chair and only cares about playing, and the Empress Dowager Yang, who is sitting behind the curtain, is also panicked. Is this called a filthy palace?

Thanks to the absence of Liu Yanzhi and the others, otherwise with his temper, there would be a bloody disaster in the court today.

According to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, the impeachment of officials at any level by supervising the imperial history is legal and must be dealt with in accordance with the procedures. ”

Wen Tianxiang is also an official who came up step by step from the grassroots level, and he is very familiar with this set of ways to attack political opponents, if he directly deals with Lu Yueli, then Chen Yi and others will succeed, if they investigate and collect evidence according to the procedure, then it will inevitably chill the hearts of loyal ministers and good generals, he pondered for a moment and said: "This official wants to ask Lu Yushi to go around and see some things, and ask Lord Chen to be a witness." ”

Lu Yueli accepted it, his ultimate move had been released, no matter how the other party responded, his goal was achieved.

So far, Chen Yizhong has to agree hard.

Wen Tianxiang asked the Queen Mother to go with the little emperor, and the Empress Dowager Yang understood that this was Wen Tianxiang's countermeasure and readily agreed.

The Empress Dowager and the emperor accompanied by the prime minister, Pingzhang military affairs and other ministers, light car Jane, no guard of honor, only a dozen with imperial equipment entourage guards, a group of people went to the Kaohsiung treasury, here is one of the lifeblood of the Great Song Dynasty, storing almost all the grain, money and silver and weapons and armor, if the treasury is on fire, then 300,000 soldiers and civilians will have to starve to death.

The road is full of traffic, the road is smooth, the rammed earth compacted road is paved with a layer of gravel, so that even after heavy rain, it will not be muddy, and there are drainage nullahs on both sides of the road, and rows of red brick houses in the distance, which are distributed by the imperial court to the people for free, and even the palace is made of this red brick.

"If it weren't for the red bricks invented by the party, 300,000 soldiers and civilians would still be floating on the sea, or living in grass huts and wooden huts." Wen Tianxiang said lightly.

Lu Yushi snorted coldly, and Chen Yizhong was noncommittal.

When the car arrived at the treasury, the officials guarding the treasury came to greet him, and Wen Tianxiang instructed him to fetch the rockets from the arsenal.

A moment later, a hardwood rail frame was presented to the group, on which were five long, pointed cylinders rolled up from iron sheets, with iron wings resembling the wings of an arrow in the middle and at the tail.

"This is the Flying God Rocket made by the Ordnance Supervision of the Ministry of War according to the drawings of the Party Lord, which can fly 3,000 steps away, whether it is land offensive and defensive or naval warfare, it is a first-class sharp firearm, and with this sharp weapon, my Great Song Navy Division will be invincible at sea."

Lu Yueli said in a low voice: "It's just a trick. ”

Chen Yizhong stroked his beard and didn't speak, he was cunning and cunning, and he already understood that this impeachment had failed.

Wen Tianxiang asked the treasurer to take out the account books and report the grain stocks.

The treasury official said that there was 100,000 stone of grain in the warehouse, which was enough for 300,000 soldiers and civilians to eat for three months based on half a catty of rice per person a day.

Wen Tianxiang asked again: "How much grain was stored during the Battle of Yashan?" ”

The treasurer thought for a while and said, "The grain stored in Yashan has been exhausted, and there are only dry food and salt vegetables. ”

Wen Tianxiang asked again: "How much of the grain in stock is now transported from Guangzhou and Quanzhou. ”

"Lord Hui, the grain transported from Guangquan Erzhou has long been eaten, and now the grain in the treasury is all conjured by the Taishi."

"Lord Chen, Lord Lu, can you hear clearly?" Wen Tianxiang said with a slight sarcasm.

"Demon Dao, Demon Dao!" Lu Yueli suddenly beat his chest and stood up, "The demon is in charge, and the Great Song Dynasty is in danger."

Wen Tianxiang said: "Lord Lu feeds his wife and children every day, but they are all made by demons, so I think it is better to stop Lord Lu's rice." ”

Xing Dynasty went into exile overseas, and the officials' salaries were converted into grain distribution, and Lu Yushi could receive 100 catties of rice every month, which was slightly difficult to feed a family of four, but it was not to starve to death.
