The frequency of the prime minister of a country going up and down is an unprecedented spectacle, and the prime minister of Tian Qi is simply sitting on the crater of a volcano, and he may be wiped out at any time. Looking at the frequency of the prime ministers of the Tian Qi dynasty, it is far from being comparable to that of the island country that became a farce in the world political arena with the frequency of the resignation of the prime minister in later generations, and most of the ways in which the prime ministers stepped down were carried out in the form of imprisonment, hanging, exile, and demotion, and its tragedy was also rare in ancient and modern China and abroad.

Yao'er, who was flying like a horse, galloped all the way to Lin'an City, thinking only in his heart: "I am so dangerous to the prime minister, why are so many officials still eager for this position?" If it were me, I would rather stay down there than be such a dangerous official. ”

Although he has also studied since childhood, he cannot be compared with those scholars who have been in the cold window for ten years, and naturally they do not understand how attractive a "name" that can be recorded in the annals of history and passed down through the ages. Don't say that being the prime minister does not necessarily mean that the family will be destroyed, even if it is really risky, there are still countless people who are willing to rush up with their heads.

Yao'er and Cui Langzhong arrived in Lin'an, Cui Langzhong went back to Kouqing Palace first, and Yao'er rushed directly to the palace, he wanted to go to the political hall. Kou Qing Palace Shangshu Gua Lanjian and Kou Qing Palace Shilang Hua Tingwei are both there now, and the person who went to Rouming Villa to summon the message said clearly: "Xiangye is furious, Shangshu asked Changshi to rush to the political hall immediately after returning to the city. ”

entered the door of the government hall and asked Jiang Dexu where his official office was. Yao'er hurried away.

"Smack!"

A draft edict fell to the ground. Jiang Dexu was furious and said: "Stupid, really a stupid thing who doesn't understand it." He Zhimiao waved an army of 200,000 to seek Muhua, and spent a huge amount of money on military materials, horses, and armor. The imperial court is not enough to spend, according to your method of supply. More than half of the transportation alone has to be consumed, how can Feng Pavilion be such a group of stupid things! ”

The one who was scolded was the Fengge Shilang Gu Zili, and the Fengge was the Zhongshu Province among the original Zhongshu, Menxia, and Shangshu provinces. Fengge Shilang is also a prime minister in a broad sense. This Prime Minister Gu is such a big official, and he is also a very noble figure when he comes and goes, but he was treated like this by Jiang Dexu, and he only made a face as ashamed as an old hen that had just laid eggs.

Gu Zili explained with a red face: "Xiangye, it's not that the subordinate officials are incompetent. In fact, the four towns of Muhua are located in a remote area, and they have been lost to Chu Man for many years, and the original tuntian is all deserted. The local tribes have been plundered again, and now they are only supplied by the local community. Less than one-tenth of the military supply, all the grain and baggage need to be ......"

"I don't want to listen!"

Jiang Dexu spat Xingzi sprayed on Prime Minister Gu's face like rain: "Muhua Road is far away, and the sand moraine is extremely deep. Long-distance transportation. It's a lot of money. According to your method, when the four towns of Muhua are recovered, the country will suppress them, and they will be unbearable. Don't talk this nonsense with me. What is the use of you if you don't solve the difficulties, go back. Think of a good plan again! ”

Gu Zili was helpless, so he had to swallow his anger and agree, bending down to pick up the draft edict from the ground. Prime Minister Gu is thin and weak, but his actions are not flexible. Probably because of some disease in the legs and feet, I can't bend freely. bent down to pick up the edict, but could only pout his cheeks high, and his appearance was very ugly.

Jiang Dexu was in a nameless fire because of the imprisonment of the three prime ministers, and when he saw him like this, he hated it even more, and reprimanded with disdain: "The court will choose officials, and they will be rebodies, words, books, and judgments." Seeing that you are thin, vulgar, not vulgar, not outstanding, stupid and cowardly, slow in action, like a frozen fly, I really don't know how a person like you can become a Fengge squire! ”

Even if a small history is so humiliated, he has to be angry, not to mention that Gu Zili is the prime minister of the dynasty, but under Jiang Dexu's prestige, he doesn't dare to refute, the bigger the official does, the more scruples he has, although Gu Shilang has hatred in his heart, he doesn't dare to offend this prime minister who covers the sky with one hand.

Gu Zili was so angry that his lips trembled, and his eyes were blackened for a while, and he finally picked up the edict, panting heavily, and couldn't walk away for a while. Hearing Jiang Dexu so insulting, Gu Zili's body shook and he almost fell.

Seeing this, the superintendent Yushi Chen Lijiu, who also came to the political affairs hall to perform, hurriedly helped him. Chen Lijiu helped Gu Zili steady, and when he saw Jiang Dexu staring at him, he quickly withdrew his hand again.

Jiang Dexu reprimanded: "Look at you like this, Gu Zili is thin and withered, with no flesh on your cheeks, but you are as fat as a ball, with a round face and big eyes, you are just like a Pixiu, the standard of the imperial court is really getting worse and worse, what kind of people are used!" ”

Pixiu is one of the names of pandas, this old liquor is short and fat, with a round face and big eyes, and it really looks a little like a panda when you look closely. The little waiters waiting on both sides couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker.

Chen Zhaode is also a person who likes to give people nicknames, today's matter, after the big mouths of these little chamberlains, as soon as the big mouths of these little chamberlains are promoted, I am afraid that the nicknames of the frozen fly waiter and the Pixiu Yushi will spread.

Chen Lijiu was scolded by Jiang Dexu, and his fat face turned red, Jiang Dexu waved his hand in disgust and said, "Get out!" All out! It's annoying to look at you! ”

Gu Zili and Chen Lijiu were just about to retreat, when a small chamberlain turned into the hall and said to Jiang Dexu: "Grandpa Xiang, Kou Qing Palace Chief Shi Yao'er asks to see you!" ”

"Call her in!"

Jiang Dexu ordered angrily and sat down on the couch.

Jiang Dexu's office hall because it is a palace building, it is very different from the yamen outside, this is a palace building, Jiang Dexu's residence is a main hall, there are eight huge hall pillars on the left and right sides of the hall, and there are side halls on both sides, which become a courtyard by itself.

Yao'er stepped up to the hall, and saw Jiang Dexu sitting on the top angrily, and he didn't care to look at the people next to him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted with his crossed hands: "Xiaguan Yao'er has seen Xiangye!" ”

Jiang Dexu snorted, glanced at him coldly, and said in a strange manner: "You are so idle, as the main hall of Kou Qing's palace, you don't do your job, you are idle, you have lost your holy hopes, and you don't live up to the people, but you don't know that you are so unbearable!" ”

Yao'er was stunned, but she didn't expect that as soon as she entered the political hall, she was reprimanded by Jiang Dexu like this, and Yao'er couldn't help but get angry. replied coldly: "Xiangye, I came here by order to listen to instructions. It's not to listen to your lesson, as the main hall of Kou Qing's palace, whether he is not doing his job properly, idle, and has his own public opinion on the exam. ”

Yao'er was angry, and even the subordinate officials were no longer called, but claimed to be certain without humility or arrogance. Strictly speaking, even a bricklayer is unwilling to grovel. You can also claim to be certain in front of a prime minister, which is not rude, and Jiang Dexu can't find fault with it.

Yao'er said again: "As for whether it is to live up to the holy hope and live up to the people...... But I don't know that you can represent the holy will. Or can it represent the people of the world? What the sage evaluated, Yao'er didn't know, as for the public opinion, the people praised the little woman as the reincarnation of the blue sky. ”

These people mentioned by Yao'er are either nobler than Jiang Dexu, or higher than him, although Guan Bo is now a small county magistrate in the local government, but when he was in the political hall, Jiang Dexu was still the last little brother in the political hall. Officialdom is about seniority, and Uncle Guan is also more noble than him.

Jiang Dexu was furious when he heard this. "Smack" slapped a few cases, and shouted: "Yao'er! You are so bold that you dare to talk to your true self like this! ”

Yao'er smiled and said: "How can Yao'er have the majesty of Xiangye, this is the political hall, the country's confidential center, and Xiangye is the prime minister of the country, in this solemn place, he is called by a nickname at every turn, the little woman has her own name and surname, and the long history of the plague is also commensurate with you in this solemn place?"

deliberately slowed down his pace, listening to the movement behind him, Gu Shilang and Chen Yushi were shocked, this female Changshi is so bold, now who sees Jiang Dexu in the Manchu Dynasty is not trembling and respectful, he is so rebellious and rebellious in a small long history, speaking of which, it is still a backer.

In fact, even the backers behind Yao'er didn't dare to be so rude to such a righteous and arrogant Jiang Dexu, but these two officials could only think from the idea of backers, who would think that they didn't have the backbone to not bend their waists for five buckets of rice?

Gua Lanjian and Hua who were waiting in the side hall heard the news from behind the screen, and when they heard Yao'er and Jiang Dexu talking like this, they couldn't help but be shocked, Gua Lanjian hurriedly stepped out and shouted: "Yao'er, shut up!" He bowed to Jiang Dexu and said: "Yao'er is young and vigorous, and he doesn't know how to be polite, so it's no wonder that the prime minister is not weird!" ”

"Get out, get out! Get out of here! Jiang Dexu flicked his sleeves angrily and drove out the little waiters who were waiting on both sides. When the palace was empty and only the four of them were left, Jiang Dexu glared at Yao'er coldly, and said coldly: "Little girl, don't be too arrogant." ”

Yao'er shrugged her shoulders and said indifferently: "Be arrogant, if you don't get along with Xiangye, you don't get along with Shangshu and Lord Shilang, presumably the entire court from the saint down is happy to see it, doesn't Xiangye think the same way?" ”

Jiang Dexu snorted coldly and did not speak again.

On the surface, don't seem to be hugging the entire Kou Qing Palace, this is the strategy they set at the beginning, but they don't have to make trouble to the point where a Kou Qing Palace Chief Shi confronts a prime minister in front of him, everything that happened today is not in their plan.

Jiang Dexu is rigid by nature, probably because he was born as a concubine, and he had been treated unfairly at home in his early years, so he always has a bit of an extreme and mean temperament in his bones. At the beginning, he was still a junior in the political hall, so he dared to harshly ridicule the general who was an elderly venerable man and had just made great achievements, let alone now.

When he reprimanded Yao'er, it was indeed because he was angry and didn't care about the dignity of others at all. And the reason why Yao'er is-for-tat, of course, is because he has already made an appointment in advance, and he is not afraid that he will really turn his face, but it is also because he is really disgusted with Jiang Dexu's domineering.

Since Jiang Dexu monopolized the political hall, the loneliness, arrogance, meanness and unkindness hidden in his bones have become more and more obvious, and now Jiang Dexu is empty-eyed and arbitrary. In a short period of time, this image of a lonely minister can ensure that he can be unscrupulous no matter who he faces, but in the long run, it is by no means a blessing.

When Yao'er and Yinmo's people considered the officials who could form an alliance between the DPRK and China, they had long listed this person as a refusal to correspond. Therefore, Yao'er used the topic to play, deliberately letting people see that he was at odds with him, and Yao'er also had far-reaching considerations: "Jiang Dexu's faction is now an ally, but it must not be a real comrade-in-arms!" ”

"What are you doing with the Taoist and the dustless old nuns?"

Jiang Dexu was a true Confucian disciple and a pious saint disciple, who was dismissive of the so-called gods and monsters, and asked unhappily as soon as the conflict was revealed.

Yao'er teased: "This matter does not seem to conflict with our purpose, the lower officials heard that the three prime ministers were imprisoned, so they hurriedly returned to Beijing, it seems that the prime minister is not in a hurry about this matter, and he still has the leisure to inquire about Yao'er making friends." ”

Jiang Dexu snorted heavily. It's boring again, the so-called barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, he can't take advantage of the quarrel with Yao'er, the difference in status between the two people is too great, Yao'er doesn't ask for him, and the forces behind him are not afraid of him, he can't do anything to Yao'er, once there are some quarrels, but to help Yao'er improve people's popularity.

Gua Lanjian hurriedly diverted the topic and said: "The group of Yushitai started to fight back, but I didn't expect to leave a handsome minister, they still bit people so ruthlessly, and they put the three prime ministers in prison at once, and the government and the opposition were shaken, and they called you to come just to discuss how to deal with it." ”

Yao'er frowned and said, "Why did the three prime ministers go to prison?" ”

Gua Lanjian smiled bitterly, and stopped talking.

Seeing that they were choking badly, Hua Tingwei sat next to him, laughing and not saying a word, he was Mrs. Mu's person, not Jiang Dexu's faction, I couldn't wait to see them deflated, seeing Yao'er asking, Hua Tingwei interjected: "This time the matter is very tricky, the Yushitai has conclusive evidence in hand, and the human and material evidence has been presented to the emperor." ”

Hua listened to the words in detail, and Yao'er listened carefully, and then understood the reason.

It turned out that this incident was due to Prime Minister Zhang Xi, and the prime ministers of the political hall were in charge of a share of errands. For example, Su Wei is in charge of the judiciary, while Zhang Xi is in charge of the election of heavenly officials, in charge of the affairs of electoral examinees and electors, and the affairs of Quan's election of officials, to put it bluntly, is the appointment of officials in charge, and the corresponding yamen is the ministry of officials.

This position is very powerful, and the officials in charge of personnel have always been popular from ancient times to the present, and some officials with similar qualifications and prestige compete for the same fat difference, and in order to gain his approval and support, they will give him bribes. At first, he was still restrained and cautious, but then he gradually became unscrupulous, and he walked a lot at night and finally met a ghost, and was caught by the people of Yushitai.

Now that Yushitai has been hit, they have used this matter as a weapon to counterattack the civilian officials, as for Su Wei and Xia Ru, it is an unexpected gain, the people of Yushitai did not expect to be able to catch two big fish at first, if they knew from the beginning that these two prime ministers were also implicated, maybe they would use this matter as a transaction to seek reconciliation with the political hall.
