Emperor Zhengqing opened the golden mouth, and just in the peaceful imperial study, there was an undercurrent surging, and a few joys and a few sorrows were staged immediately. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Those who didn't want Lan Mingdong to return to Beijing to get in the way of the eyes of the left minister all bowed down in unison and shouted, 'Holy and Shengming!' ’

The rest of those who were looking forward to Lan Mingdong's return and were not satisfied with the trust in Zuo Xiang, after complimenting, they inevitably took the opportunity to raise their eyebrows.

In the end, the person who was elected by everyone with their eyes was none other than Lord Shangshu Hu of the Ministry of Officials!

Hu Shangshu and Lan Mingdong are sons and daughters, this one is so easy to hope that his wish will be fulfilled, it is really a good mood, he is not willing to hide this good news at all, and he can't wait to beat the gong and drum to publicize it!

No, a few days after the marriage of the two families was decided, the upper circles in the capital all knew that Hu Shangshu's eldest daughter finally fell into the arms of Lord Lan's youngest son.

With this level of relationship between children and relatives, whoever stands up and speaks is not as justified as him standing up and speaking.

After all, even if the current saint is in Lan Mingdong's departure and stay, and his opinion is contrary to him, he will also think in his heart that this person is most likely in a hurry to marry a daughter, and he has personal selfishness, but it is not a party between the courtiers, so it will undoubtedly make the saint feel a lot more at ease.

And Hu Shangshu himself is indeed waiting for Lan Mingdong's family to return to Beijing, only when the Lan family returns to Beijing and Lan Mingdongguan is reinstated, he can be his daughter and marry the scenery, isn't it?

The three-grade Fu Yin, the first-grade Zuo Xiang, this is far from the middle, although Hu Shangshu has taken a fancy to Lan Mingdong's talent, but if he can take care of both face and heart, why not?

As soon as he heard that the meaning of the saint was to postpone the return date, he naturally sighed in his heart.

In the back, the people in his own camp unanimously signaled him to make a reply, and Hu Shangshu was almost not entangled, so he came out and said loudly: "Shengshang, the minister has a play, the last words of the first emperor, Lan Mingdong Lan is a quick thinker, highly respected, and worthy of great use, if you don't transfer it back, the spirit of the first emperor in the sky will not be at ease." ”

This is the intention to make a fuss from the 'filial piety'.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Gao Zhi sneered in his heart when he heard this, he was originally a former subordinate of Chen Zhizhe, the left minister, and the two were close to their children's families.

It is conceivable that if Lan Mingdong comes back, the position of the left minister of his in-laws will not be guaranteed, the two of them are dependent on each other, in this case, how can Gao Zheng sit idly by?

immediately came out and retorted: "Lord Hu's words are wrong! ”

"Every word of what the saint said just now is right, a piece of good intentions, all for the stability of our Great Zhou Dynasty, if the first emperor has a spirit in the sky, he will definitely understand the suffering of the saint."

"Besides, it's not like the Holy Lord won't let Lord Lan come back, but it's been a year and a half at night, why not?"

"What? Master Hu, can't you wait so much? ”

Peng Zhisheng, the secretary of the military department, listened to Gao Zhen's sharp words, and faintly gained the upper hand, and couldn't help frowning: "What kind of noise, listen to the saint, don't you think it's enough to be tired of the recent dark sky and white night?" ”

He indirectly relieved Hu Shangshu, no matter what, how could this old friend who was also a drinking and running horse with Chongbeihou be able to watch Lan Mingdong's future in-laws be deflated?

Don't look at the ministers below, your words and my words are really lively, but in fact, it doesn't have a big impact on Emperor Zhengqing, he has already made a decision in his heart, this will be announced in public, but it is just the heart of some people in An'an, let the family work steadily, let him spend this time smoothly.

Seeing that the six Shangshu were arguing with a clear banner, for the sake of a harmonious atmosphere, Emperor Zhengqing couldn't just watch the play and be silent, he waved his hand, turned his face and asked Prince Cheng gently, "Brother Sanhuang, what do you see?" ”

"Should Lord Lan return to Beijing immediately, or should he hold off for a while?"

King Cheng has not been calm in his heart since he entered this imperial study, he is really quite contradictory, when the three kings competed for the throne, he was at a disadvantage, and later he followed the advice of his staff, and chose to join forces with the young, more generous King Qi.

At that time, it seemed that giving up flaws would be rewarded, and King Lu, who was small-minded, couldn't be more correct.

But when the dust settled, sitting in this long-lost imperial study, he was different from the previous ninth brother who was already a monarch and a minister.

A man is so high that if everyone wants to speak, they must bow down first.

One sat on the side, no one cared, no one cared.

What is the difference?

King Cheng only felt cold and sad in his heart, and couldn't help but think, "If I hadn't chosen to retreat at the beginning, then is it possible, it may be me who is sitting in a high position at this moment, and it may be me ......"

Emperor Zhengqing's sudden questioning just interrupted King Cheng's thoughts, this eyes quickly swept over the big Zhou Dongliang in the room, and after weighing it in his heart, he arched his hand to Emperor Zhengqing and said: "Since Pingjing is still inseparable from Lord Lan for the time being, then it is better to take it a slow, but in order to make the handover of Lord Lan back to Beijing in the future, the Holy Lord can consider it now, and first send someone to study with Lord Lan." ”

"In this way, whether it is a year or half a year, with a suitable successor, won't Lord Lan be recalled to Beijing at any time?"

These words were very good at diverting the attention of the six second-grade masters, Emperor Zhengqing was greatly satisfied with his knowledge, smiled and nodded to his brother, King Cheng hurriedly replied with a kind smile of 'you know', and the two of them had a very brotherly and brotherly posture.

Everyone knows that the Zhou Water Canal is being built in Pingjing, and when the first emperor was there, it was always secretive, even if there was merit, he just said it small, lest it be too high-profile and public, and he would be waved and stopped by the first emperor.

But I don't know why, after the change of emperor, the attitude of Pingjing immediately changed, and the excerpts of the recital were all told according to the truth, although in a short period of time, there was only one excerpt, but the content in it was enough to let people know what a huge project Zhou Shuiqu was.

Where there is a project to do, it means that there is money to be fished!

Of course, a new round of discussion was launched in the imperial study about who to send to Pingjing to take over the position of Lord Lan, as before, they all wanted to benefit their own people, what do you think King Cheng is so meticulous and thoughtful, and what is it for?

He also has his own selfish motives.

Repairing the canal is an errand of the Ministry of Works, and the person sent to this must go from the Ministry of Works, so that if you go to pick up the people of Lan Ming Dongban and can make King Cheng, it will be pie in the sky.

If the competition is too fierce and others take advantage, the person who leaves will definitely vacate a vacant seat.

It's not bad to be able to eat an extra piece of bread in the Ministry of Industry.

King Cheng just saw it, in this matter, he could get benefits both in advance and retreat, so when Emperor Zhengqing asked him, he added such a provocative sentence, his original intention was not to want Lan Mingdong to come back.

The current left minister has only been in office for two years, when the first emperor deliberately chose a gentle personality and no enterprising spirit for the sake of autocracy, but Chen Zhizhe, who is old enough, came out, and the right minister is a well-known tumbler, which has led to the formation of a situation in the court where the prime minister has become the emperor's voice board.

When the first emperor was alive, the old man had a lot of power and was very able to control people, but with the new emperor, everything was different.

What Emperor Zhengqing needs most now is not a sounding board, but a capable and hard-working minister!

Only in this way can he, with the assistance of these people, completely control the entire court in the fastest time.

Lan Mingdong is such a capable official, so whether this person returns at this moment or not is really very crucial.

King Cheng didn't want this person to come back, he just wanted to slow down Emperor Zhengqing's grasp of power, as long as Emperor Zhengqing failed to sit firmly, then there was still hope for their brothers.

Come to think of it, in the past, he supported the current saint's ascension to the throne, and later in the name of helping the saint stabilize the court, his own emperor's younger brother should always have a little sincerity towards himself, right?

If something really happens to the saint, it will only be the loyal King Cheng who will be relied on instead of the ill-intentioned King Lu.

Looking at the first-class master who was fighting for a red face and a thick neck, and then looked at the old god who was there, and the heart abacus beads jingled, there was really no fuel-efficient lamp!

It's all a bunch of treacherous and cunning old foxes, or a bunch of old foxes just for personal gain.

"Why don't you use these eyes to help me deal with national affairs?" Emperor Zhengqing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Alas, father, you are going easily, poor son, from now on, you will not be idle!" ”

After sending this group of first-class officials to Longqing Hall to guard the spirit, Emperor Zhengqing instructed Zhang Qingcheng, the new chief eunuch who was standing bowed down, "Qingcheng, you have someone to summon the cloud flag." ”

Liang Yunqi, as an old man from the Qi Palace, naturally deserves to become the hottest celebrity in the capital, Emperor Zhengqing has always admired him as a lotus gentleman, and on the day of his accession to the throne, he issued an order to make him the left attendant of the Criminal Department, and one step further, it is the Shangshu of the Criminal Department!

This is really not at all hidden, paving the way for this young humble gentleman.

Emperor Zhengqing hopes from the bottom of his heart that Liang Yunqi can become an existence like Lan Mingdong in the future, and he can also achieve a good story of getting along with a monarch and ministers like his father and Lord Lan.

I couldn't help but think of the fact that before the emperor left, he was still holding his hand, and when he sighed to death, Lan Mingdong was not around, and the monarchs and ministers couldn't even see each other for the last time.

sighed that as the emperor, he still owed this loyal minister, and even repeatedly told Emperor Zhengqing to abandon his previous suspicions and reuse it.

Such trust, so important, really makes people sigh, Emperor Zhengqing is also a human being, and he also hopes that he can have such a person who can be trusted in the future.

Do the math, when Lan Mingdong comes back, he will only be fifty-five years old, and it will be no problem to work for another ten years, and with these ten years, Liang Yunqi, who is smart enough, will grow into a towering pillar.

Liang Yunqi was guarding the spirit in the Longqing Hall at the moment, and when he heard the Shengshang's separate call, he got up with the arm handed over by the little eunuch, bowed and staggered out of the temple door, but he didn't know how many envious and jealous eyes there were behind him.

"Go and bring a bowl of mutton soup to Fei Fei just now, it needs to be hot." Emperor Zhengqing treated his brother-in-law and minister of the humerus very kindly, with a smile on his face, and he made people hold the soup, and he made people sit down and rest his legs.

Seeing Liang Yunqi holding his legs in pain, gritting his teeth and sitting down easily, Emperor Zhengqing couldn't help but sigh lightly, "You, it's just that your heart is too real, don't people secretly get any knee pads and cotton pads?" You don't know how to get one for yourself? ”

Liang Yunqi quickly stood up, bowed his hand and replied, "Back to the saint, Weichen is young and can still stand it." ”

"Okay, it's all your own family, you're polite, sit down quickly, why bother yourself like this?" Emperor Zhengqing looked at the gentle young man in front of him who was like the finest white jade, and his voice unconsciously brought obvious softness, "Your body and bones have never been very good, if you fall ill at this juncture, won't I be even more unusable?" ”

Liang Yunqi was stunned, and asked when he heard the voice, "What, the Holy Lord has already decided?" This time, don't you recruit Lord Lan to return to Beijing? ”

Liang Yunqi was actually quite entangled in the matter of whether Lan Mingdong would return to Beijing, because he had been exchanging letters with his cousin, and Mu Lingxuan knew the news from the capital.

As early as when the first emperor was dying, this cousin wrote to him, saying good things again and again, playing tricks, and begging him to let him find a way to keep Lan Mingdong in Pingjing for two more years, even if he and Lan Jiayin became relatives today, and the old father-in-law set off the next day, he had to let him marry his daughter-in-law home, right?

Mu Lingxuan didn't think that after his old father-in-law returned to Beijing, it was too troublesome for him to marry Lan Jiayin in Beijing, he felt sorry for his little girl, this time, more than 2,000 miles of land was left behind, how much of a crime did his top son suffer? !

Liang Yunqi couldn't laugh or cry at his cousin, who was as ruthless as a wolf cub in the past, and now he is like this for the sake of his wife who has not passed through the door.

But who calls himself only such a cousin, and this cousin has always spared no effort to help him?

In the future, whether it is him who is struggling to travel in the court, or in the harem, his sister who is struggling to be favored will not be able to do without the full support of this cousin who is far away in Pingjing.

In fact, if you put aside Mu Lingxuan's request, according to the current situation in the court, you should recall Lan Mingdong, the former left minister who is still powerful, and have this person sitting in the court, and there is a Chongbei Houfu behind him as a backer, so that he can calm those civil and military officials who are still active.

But the saint still seems to be a little jealous of Lan Mingdong, after all, this is the courtier favored by the first emperor, and he, the new emperor, is just a new master who has only been recognized for a year, and the trust between the two is still a little shallow.
