Chapter 251: The Man Who Does Big Things
Gu Zhengyang didn't know what had happened, and then looked at the conversation between Qi Guogong and Zhang Dan, his heart suddenly became uneasy, and he stared at Zhang Duan with a calm face.
The reform of the imperial court, the checks and balances of power have been greatly weakened, Su Song doesn't care about anything, this Zhang Dian is the 'de facto prime minister', Zhang Dian is a person, and the court knows that there is nothing he dare not do!
Seeing that Qi Guogong confessed so quickly, Zhang Dian did not move on his face, and said, "You did it to burn Kaifeng Mansion?" ”
Qi Guogong raised his hand and said, "Xianggong Zhang, the life of my Qi Guogong Mansion is all in your hands, why bother to ask." What I want to ask is, what does Zhang Xianggong want me to do? How can I exchange it for the thoughtfulness of the Duke of Qi? ”
Qi Guogong is not stupid at all, Zhang Dian came over single-handedly, not the Imperial City Siwei Mansion, there is room for turnaround!
Zhang Dan's eyes were sharp, and he said, "Are you saying it now, or go to the prison of the Imperial City Division?" ”
Gu Zhengyang didn't dare to speak, he had already heard very clearly, Qi Guogong was held by Zhang Dun with a fatal handle!
A cold sweat broke out on his head, if the Duke of Qi was raided and exterminated, what would they do with their family?
Qi Cheng, the Duke of Qi Guo, looked at Zhang Dan, the corners of his face were straight, his eyes were unprecedentedly solemn, he was silent for a while, and said, "I did it." I have a lot of acres in Kaifeng Province, and I need to hide them and delay time. ”
Zhang Dian said: "Your acres of land are only a few thousand acres in Kaifeng Mansion, which is not much compared to the thousands of hectares of fertile land in the Duke of Qi. ”
Qi Cheng took a deep breath through his nose, his eyes were a little red, and said, "Kaifeng Mansion is just the beginning, and the Fangtian Tax Law is just the beginning, I have a lot of things to do." ”
After Wang Anshi's reform was abolished, the conservatives carried out a retaliatory counteroffensive, and the 'new law' not only had no effect, but further deepened the various shortcomings of the Great Song Dynasty, especially the land contradictions, which became more acute.
The 'aristocracy' class frantically snatched the interests of the common people and further expanded, which is also one of the reasons for the large and small 'uprisings' that have emerged throughout the country in recent years.
In history, in a few years, especially after Song Huizong succeeded to the throne, the uprisings were everywhere and endless.
Zhang Dan's sword eyebrows moved, and he finally understood that these people felt the difference in this 'new law' and were going to pave the way back.
Outside the palace burned down the Fengfu Mansion to delay the resumption of the 'new law', and the palace attacked the queen in an attempt to set up another queen.
If it can't be stopped in time, we don't know what will happen later!
The corners of Zhang Dan's face moved, and he said: "I want you and your comrades to jointly write a letter, just say that you are sympathetic to the imperial court, and are willing to donate all your family wealth to spend the difficult times with the imperial court." ”
Gu Zhengyang's face changed greatly, and he said urgently: "No! ”
If they give away all their wealth, even if they still have the name of a lord, they are beggars with a lord!
Coupled with the watchful eye of the imperial court, they did not want to recover; If there is an attack from political opponents, it is simply forcing them to die!
Zhang Duan glanced at Gu Zhengyang coldly and said, "If you want to make the first bird in the Marquis Mansion of Ningyuan, I will fulfill you now!" ”
Gu Zhengyang opened his mouth and was about to fight back, but looking at Zhang Dan's stern and murderous eyes, he swallowed it back.
It was too easy for Zhang Dian to fiddle with the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion.
Qi Guogong's heart was also boiling with anger, staring at Zhang Dan, and said forcefully: "That's it? ”
Compared with the extermination of the family, spending money to eliminate disasters is nothing in his opinion.
Zhang Dian looked at Qi Guogong, his tone suddenly became flat, and said, "Qi Guogong is really a person who does great things. ”
Qi Guogong's heart was dripping blood, his face was stiff, gloomy and ugly, and he said, "Do I have any other choice?" ”
Zhang Dian said: "There are still three days to go to the end of the morning holiday, and the staff in charge of the donation of the household department will work in shifts at twelve o'clock. ”
The corners of Qi Guogong's face twitched fiercely, and said, "I will donate to the household department before the end of the court break." ”
Zhang Duan looked at him, his eyes were like a forest, and said: "The Duke of Qi has a big business, and the Duke of Qi may not be busy coming, I will order the people from the Imperial City Division, the Criminal Department, and the Household Department to assist." ”
Listening to Zhang Dian clearly to monitor, Qi Guogong could only grit his teeth, people were swordsman, he was fish and meat, and everything was up to him!
Zhang Duan glanced at Gu Zhengyang and said, "If the Duke of Qi or anything is unwilling, tell me, I will take the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion to set up a prestige, let them know that there are some things that you can't touch, and if you touch them, you will die!" ”
Gu Zhengyang dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, his face was almost frozen.
Qi Guogong didn't speak, he needed to calm down now, agree first, and then make calculations.
Zhang Dian looked at the expressions of the two, and said more and more calmly: "Let's open the table." ”
Qi Guogong was stunned, at this time, Zhang Dian still has to hold a banquet?
Gu Zhengyang looked at Qi Guogong, he still didn't know what was going on.
Qi Guogong stiffly stretched out his hand and went up the steps into the main hall.
The three of them sat down separately, except for two glasses of wine, only Zhang Dian was moving his chopsticks, and the other two did not speak.
The county lord of Qi'an didn't know when he came to the side door, and stood quietly, listening to the movement inside.
But there was no sound inside for too long, and the expression of the county lord of Qi'an gradually became a little cold, and after waiting for a while, she turned around and left.
Before she returned to her courtyard, she suddenly stopped and said indifferently: "Enter the palace." ”
There were five or six maids around him, and they hurriedly went to make arrangements.
Not long after the county lord of Qi'an left, Zhang Dian seemed to have eaten and drunk enough, wiped his mouth, and said, "Write a list for me." ”
After such a long time, Qi Guogong calmed down a little, looked at Zhang Dian, and said, "Wang Jieyu was really beaten into the cold palace?" ”
If Wang Jieyu framed the queen's incident, it shouldn't be so calm.
Zhang Dian sat up straight and said, "I asked Your Majesty to keep it a secret." ”
Seeing that Zhang Dian said it so bluntly, Gu Zhengyang's heart was cold.
Zhang Dian and Qi Guogong seem to have been 'bargaining', but in fact, they are ready to fly, and they are about to explode.
It was difficult for Qi Guogong to completely calm down, and he couldn't calculate everything, and said, "Does the official family know that you want to do this?" ”
Zhang Dan's expression suddenly became indifferent as ice, and said: "The political hall is the political hall, and Your Majesty is Your Majesty, you have to distinguish clearly." ”
Qi Guogong closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he was irritable and had a splitting headache.
He has already understood that there is an official family behind this matter, so no matter how hard he struggles, it will be in vain.
"Can you promise that you won't pursue it further?" Qi Guogong opened his eyes and said.
"I can't guarantee anything. I want that list, I've got to go back to the office. ”
Gu Zhengyang couldn't help it, and said coldly: "Zhang Xianggong, killing people with soft knives is the most hateful!" If you are in a hurry, it will not do you any good! ”
In this world, there are no saints, no one who does not make mistakes, and even if there is, they can make them!
Zhang Dun's current situation is very bad, and the 'old party' regards him as a thorn in the side, and it has never stopped chasing and beating him fiercely. Far from being successfully integrated within the 'new party', the rifts are getting bigger and bigger, especially the part that has not been able to recover, and the bite is even more fierce than that of the 'old party'.
If something big enough happens to Zhang Xuan now, so big that Zhao Xu can't forcibly shelter him, then Zhang Xuan will have only one ending - like Lu Dafang, he will be imprisoned and ruined!
Zhang Dian Huoran's eyes widened, and he said in an indifferent tone: "It seems that Ning Yuanhou can't wait." ”
Qi Guogong was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Ning Yuanhou didn't mean that, Zhang Xianggong was angry, and everything was easy to discuss." ”
Once Zhang Dian really made a move against Ning Yuanhou, he might not be able to contain it.
Gu Zhengyang didn't dare to say any more, but he was still resentful and unwilling.
Zhang Dian forced them to hand over all their family wealth, but they didn't give them a word of truth, hateful!
Zhang Dan showed a hint of disdain on his face and sat and waited.
Qi Guogong's heart was heavy, and he was silent for a while, and then summoned a subordinate and ordered him to prepare the four treasures of the study.
Soon, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were placed on the table.
Qi Guogong stared at the white paper for a while, his face was ruthless, he picked up the pen and began to write.
The terrible thing about the Xungui Group is that their foundation is too thick, they collude with each other, and their relationship network is too large, permeating all aspects of the Great Song Dynasty.
If you move one, you can pull out a large piece.
The Duke of Qi can burn Kaifeng Mansion with fire, and he also does not leak, which shows the means.
If he hadn't been in too much of a hurry, he might really have repeat the turmoil in history. Even if it weren't for the king's mercy on the throne, there was no good reason for Zhang Duan to want to make a move against Xungui.
Qi Guogong wrote more than 30 names in a row, and finally, he put down his pen, and his expression was very calm.
Zhang Duan took the paper, looked at the list on it, and raised his eyes to look at Qi Guogong.
In this list, there is not even Ning Yuanhou Gu Zhengyang!
Qi Guogong's face was expressionless, and he said: "There are so many of my henchmen, and others don't count." ”
Zhang Dian read it again, folded the paper, put it in his arms, and said: "Ten nobles, the acres of land shall not be less than 30,000 hectares, before you send it to the household department, I want to see the specific list." ”
Zhang Dian got up as he spoke, and left straight before he could finish speaking.
Gu Zhengyang looked at Zhang Dan, waited for him to go away, looked at Qi Guogong anxiously, and said, "Zhang Duan just left?" What does he mean by this, has he eaten us? He is just a governor of political affairs, and he has 30,000 acres, so his appetite is too great! ”
30,000 hectares is not a small number, they don't have that much!
Qi Guogong glanced at him, and did not speak with a calm face.
Zhang Dian now represents the political hall, and there is an official family behind him, does he have a big appetite? It's a blessing that there is no raid on the family!
Gu Zhengyang saw that Qi Guogong didn't speak, and continued: "Zhang Dian didn't give a guarantee, does it mean that we donated the family wealth, and he still has the next step?" What is he going to do, to kill all of us? ”
Qi Guogong still didn't speak, his face was irritable.
