Chapter Eighty-Nine: Strike Again
Ma Yan was silent for a while, the corners of his face straightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Let's not say so much, let's check!" Tonight, there must be a result! ”
Huang Yan understands that today's great changes in the Zichen Hall will definitely shake Kaifeng City, and there may be unexpected changes tomorrow, they must explain, otherwise it will be difficult to get out easily!
The two looked at each other, sat down in their chairs and waited. The expressions of the two are almost identical, solemn as ice!
It was not yet dark, and Zhongshu Province had already received more than a dozen recitals.
Qin Bing, a scholar in the middle school, can be regarded as the chief housekeeper of the political affairs hall, looking at the notebooks sent in, silent, and his heart is heavy.
Naturally, these recitals were not arranged by them.
There are a few that impeach the Criminal Department, a few that accuse Lu Dafang, a few that go to Su Song, and even one that openly accuses the Empress Dowager Gao of 'abusing power and giving the country and not returning to politics for a long time'!
It's unprecedented, as if it's heralding something.
Qin Bing looked up, Lu Dafang's duty room was closed, quietly, different from before, there was really no one here.
Qin Bing watched silently for a while, put away these playbooks, and not far away, a messenger came in, looked at them and asked, "Qin Sheren, where are these playbooks sent?" ”
In the past, after these recitals were approved by the ministers, they were naturally sent to the Cining Palace.
Qin Bing could hear what he meant, glanced at him, and said lightly, "Let's let it go first." ”
Seeing that he was really there, the Tongshi Sheren put it aside and asked softly, "Do you want to send it to Funing Palace?" ”
Qin Bing's expression suddenly became indifferent, and he said, "These things are not for you to ask!" ”
The general's eyes flickered slightly, and he raised his hand and said, "Yes." ”
Qin Bing ignored him, cleaned up, and looked around the various rooms again, before going out after work.
He stood in front of the door and looked at the Privy Council to the west, hesitating whether to meet Su Song, but in the end he still didn't go and went straight out of the palace.
At this time, the general clerk quietly came out of the corner, looked at Qin Bing's back, sneered at the corner of his mouth, and turned around and walked in the direction of the court bureau.
Now the situation in the palace has become more and more clear, although Zhou He is still a Huangmen order, in fact, there are two people in charge - Chen Pi and Tong Guan.
Through the relationship, this Tongshi Sheren directly found Tong Guan.
Tong Guan is cautious at this time, don't touch around, trying to make new contributions and stabilize the position in Zhao Xu's heart.
Tong Guan sat on the chair, looked at Li Pin, the general secretary who bowed in front of him, and said slowly: "You mean, Qin Bing put all the transcripts that should have been given to the official family in the political affairs hall?" ”
Li Pin hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Yes." The villain also specially asked if he wanted to give it to the official family, but Qin Bingyan refused. ”
Tong Guan suddenly snorted coldly and said, "Qin Bing is so bold, the official family dares to deduct the script!" ”
Li Pin looked at Tong Guan's expression, cautious and meaningful, and said: "Who said no, but the villain is humble and can only come to tell his father-in-law." ”
Tong Guan could hear what he meant, glanced at him, and said, "Don't worry, I won't rob you of your credit." Waiting here, I'll go to the official's house. ”
Tong Guan immediately went out of the court bureau, came to the Funing Palace, stood outside Zhao Xu's study, looked at Zhao Ji, and stood outside the door respectfully and silently.
In the study, Zhao Ji sat opposite Zhao Xu, holding a brush in his hand, and there was white paper on the table.
Zhao Xu held the teacup and watched the little bastard practice his words seriously and attentively, his heart was very satisfied and very leisurely.
After writing eight, Zhao Ji looked up at Zhao Xu and said, "It's written." ”
Zhao Xu sighed, his body did not move, he looked up, and said, "Yongzi is still not mellow enough, write again." ”
Zhao Ji pursed his lips, stared, and looked at Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu snorted and said, "The gentleman in the school building said, you don't write well, you have to urge me more, and if you dare to stare at me again, don't think about leaving today." ”
Zhao Ji hated the gentlemen in the school building to death, and thought about going to Concubine Zhu's for a snack later, seeing that Zhao Xu was so leisurely and comfortable, he said angrily: "No, you can write to me!" ”
Zhao Xu was expressionless, and said lightly: "I didn't hear clearly, you say it again." ”
When Zhao Ji saw it, he quickly picked up the pen, lost his anger just now, his little face was very serious, and he wrote attentively.
Zhao Xu looked at him, snorted in his heart, and said secretly: If I had you written well, I wouldn't have written it to you a long time ago!
Not long after, Zhao Ji wrote again, put down the pen, sat up straight, and looked at Zhao Xu seriously.
Zhao Xu glanced at Tong Guan, who had been waiting for a long time, and said to Zhao Ji: "There is progress, I will spare you today, go." ”
Zhao Ji didn't expect Zhao Xu to let him go so easily today, and he was overjoyed, but before he could be happy, he suddenly pursed the corners of his mouth, looked at Zhao Xu with a rare and somewhat timid expression, and said, "Official, can I go and see my grandmother?" ”
Zhao Xu was stunned, and then remembered that Zhao Ji also grew up under the knees of the Empress Dowager Gao, even though the Empress Dowager Gao was strict, she was not a wicked person.
Too lazy to have filial piety for this little bastard, Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Don't listen to those rumors in the palace, just go if you want." ”
Zhao Ji was only nine years old after all, and when he jumped up, he kicked over the stool, and even the table with Zhao Xu trembled, and the teacup in his hand almost spilled. And Zhao Ji didn't seem to feel it, turned around and ran outside.
The corners of Zhao Xu's mouth twitched, he really wanted to catch this little bastard and beat him up.
At this time, Tong Guan quietly walked in, stood in front of Zhao Xu's table, bowed his body, and told Li Pin about it concisely.
Zhao Xu listened, slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip on his lips, and nodded secretly in his heart: The direction of the wind has changed.
He held the teacup, thought for a moment, looked at Tong Guan and said, "It's really not enough to ask Zai Fu to go back to the house to introspect, but the political hall can't be moved lightly, what do you say?" ”
Tong Guan's waist arched a little deeper, knowing that this was a test, the early abdominal manuscript was useless, his eyes flickered urgently, and he said softly after a moment: "Official, the outer court has not heard of Your Majesty for a long time, and it needs to be warned." ”
Zhao Xu smiled and said with some playfulness: "Oh, I didn't do enough today?" ”
Tong Guan said: "Judging from the reaction of the political affairs hall, it is not enough. ”
Zhao Xu looked at Tong Guan and gently turned the teacup.
Tong Guan is right, it is far from enough. In addition, the news of the death of the Empress Dowager will spread tomorrow, and he must remind the outer court again!
"What do you think should be done?" Zhao Xu glanced at Tong Guan, fiddled with the tea, and asked casually.
Tong Guan paused and said, "The official family can send Qin Bing to prison and appoint a new Zhongshu Sheren, so that they can control the political affairs hall." ”
Zhao Xu shook his head secretly, the current Tong Guan, his eyelids are a little shallower, even if he wins Qin Bing, the new Zhongshu people don't have those ministers nodding, he can't be forcibly appointed, and he may fall into a rupture, which will damage his prestige and paralyze government affairs.
Zhao Xu took another sip of tea and said, "Have you issued a few orders from Shangshu Province?" ”
Tong Guan was slightly stunned, unable to figure it out, so he had to say honestly: "If it is issued, it should be reported to the official family, but now it seems that there is no yet." ”
Zhao Xu turned his head, looked out the window, and said, "At this time, the resistance is still the same...... Go, tell Chen Pi, order the Imperial City Division, and seal Shangshu Province overnight. ”
Tong Guan listened, and was shocked.
Yesterday, the three divisions of the yamen were sealed, and today is the province of Shangshu going to be sealed? What are the officials doing here?
If Shangshu Province is really sealed, it will not only remind the government and the opposition of the 'de facto pro-government', but I am afraid that it will also cause a violent backlash from the government and the opposition, right?
Tong Guan raised his head, looked at Zhao Xu's flat expression, and suddenly secretly woke up in his heart, he vaguely guessed that the official family must have a deep meaning in doing this, so he didn't dare to think about it, and hurriedly said: "Yes, the villain will go." ”
Zhao Xu snorted and continued to fiddle with the tea.
The three provinces and six dynasties have evolved in successive dynasties, and there have been many changes in the Song Dynasty. After the restructuring of Yuanfeng, the executive power of Shangshu Province was restored, and there were six departments under its jurisdiction. However, due to low efficiency, power was transferred to the government hall, which was seriously squeezed and weakened.
