"Han Yang's name is deliberately difficult."

Kou Ji said with emotion.

The housekeeper nodded and said, "The villain thinks it's also ......."

Kou Ji smiled indifferently and said: "The official family is worried that there is no excuse to clean up Han Yang and Song Qi, but I didn't expect Han Yang to take the initiative to send it to the door." I'll write a note, and you will send someone to the palace when you turn around. ”

The housekeeper nodded, and immediately prepared to step forward to help Kou Ji sharpen ink.

Kou Ji seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked, "Where is Di Qing?" Wang Deyong has been in Liaodong for half a year, why haven't you seen Di Qing return to Beijing to resume his life? ”

The housekeeper hurriedly said: "When General Wang went to Liaodong, General Di led the soldiers and horses to inspect Liaodi. The two met a month ago......"

Kou Ji pondered for a moment and said, "Di Qing probably wants to find a ...... to fight."

For a general who was born to fight, it was a sad thing not to fight.

Today's Di Qing has just entered the prime of life, and he is leading the invincible tiger Ben in the world behind him, but when he looks up, there is no enemy.

There must be a great sorrow in my heart.

It's like a person who has honed all his skills and suddenly finds that his skills have no market.

That kind of bitterness is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Di Qing led his soldiers and horses to patrol the Liaodi, probably eager to encounter a rebellion.

It's a pity that his partner is Zhang Zhibai, an honest and honest official.

An official who patrolled around the land of Liao for 365 days a year for 365 days.

Under Zhang Zhibai's supervision, the prisoners in Liaodi were treated most fairly, some of them were fed and some clothed, and it was impossible for them to rebel.

If someone rebels, instead of complying, they will carry the farm tools in their hands and kill a person to make military achievements, so as to get out of the country.

Under such circumstances, it was very difficult for Di Qing to encounter a rebellion.

Kou Ji understood Di Qing's feelings, but it didn't mean that he would let Di Qing waste his time outside.

Kou Ji instructed the butler, "Send someone to urge you." He is the chief officer of the Forbidden Army Division, and the Forbidden Army Department still has many government affairs that he needs to manage. ”

The butler nodded in agreement.

After the butler had polished the ink, Kou Ji wrote a note and asked the housekeeper to send someone to the palace.

After Kou Jizuo was sent out, he walked out of the door of the study with his hands on his back.

At the door, I saw a certain little fat man, step by step into the courtyard where the study was located, with a poem in his mouth, and a smug smile on his face.

The little fat man is worthy of the light covering up the poet immortal for thousands of years.

Kou Ji obviously didn't teach him to compose poetry, but he didn't learn how to do things without a teacher.

And he also likes to show off, and spit lotus flowers when he has nothing to do.

In the bamboo courtyard, no one touts him.

Because the students in the bamboo courtyard are either monsters like him, or great nobles who don't care about the way of poetry.

It's that people on the outside are very fond of touting the little guys.

Not only do they think the little guy is cute, but they also think that the little guy is a prodigy, and there is a prodigy in his belly.

When Taizu and Taizong were in the dynasty, they didn't like prodigies, so no one among the people touted prodigies, and there was no place for prodigies in the court.

Therefore, during the two dynasties of Taizu and Taizong, almost all the ministers in the court were old ministers.

The only exception is Kou Ji's grandfather, Kou Zhun.

Kou Zhun was a nineteen-year-old Jinshi who was criticized for thinking that he was too young and needed to be pressed for a term.

If it weren't for Kou Zhun playing properly in front of Emperor Taizong, it is estimated that he would really be removed from the list and pressed for another term.

It can be seen that prodigies were not very popular in the Taizu and Taizong dynasties.

By the time of the Zhenzong Dynasty, the prodigy slowly became popular.

Especially after the famous prodigy Yan Shu was appreciated by Emperor Zhenzong, the Great Song Dynasty set off a prodigy wind.

Both the government and the opposition like prodigies, and they also like to promote and praise prodigies.

It is precisely because of this that the prodigy is very popular in the Great Song Dynasty.

Prodigies like little guys, whose talents are pouring out of their bodies, are even more popular.

The little guy goes to the Qinglou and can come back with a mixed face of rouge and a lot of purses.

The purse was full of gold and silver leaves.

It can be seen how much the girls in the green building love the little guy.

Kou Ji felt that if the little guy was older, he would be able to replace Liu Yong, the former leader of the Fengyue team, and become the new leader of the Fengyue team of the Great Song Dynasty.

"I thought you just liked the fat powder of the girls, but I didn't think you were also obsessed with wine? You're only five and a half years old, and you're learning to play with people, right? ”

Kou Ji's gloomy voice sounded in Su Shi's ears.

Su Shi just chanted half a poem, sighed in his heart, immediately closed his mouth, and stood stiffly in place, half of his drunkenness dissipated.

When Koji's face appeared in front of him, he was about to cry.

"Hold it! Don't cry! ”

Koji snorted.

Su Shi hurriedly bit his lip and held back his crying.

Kou Ji said angrily: "You are only five and a half years old, and you are visiting the Qinglou and drinking, who did you learn from?" ”

As soon as Su Shi was about to open his mouth, he heard Kou Ji snort coldly: "Your father is a strict wife, your husband and I have been in the midst of thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf touches my body." Neither of us has ever been a poet or a writer, so who did you learn from for your bad problems? ”

Su Shi's little face tightened, and he asked timidly: "What is strict wife?" ”

Kou Ji's face darkened, through Su Shi's words, he understood, his preaching was in vain.

"Strict wife control is to lie on the ears ......"

"Oh...... I'm afraid of my wife. ”

“……”

Lying on the ear is a Sichuan dialect, Su Shi is a native of Meishan, Sichuan, and the closest person around him is also a native of Meishan, although he does not live in Meishan, but through the people around him, he can also know the meaning of this word.

Su Shi lowered his head and thought about it, and said to Kou Ji with a serious face: "My father is still very majestic in front of my mother......

Kou Ji snorted and glared at Su Shi viciously, "I'll clean you up later." ”

Su Shi shrunk his neck in fright.

Kou Ji stared at the moon gate behind Su Shi, and snorted coldly: "Come out, do you want me to invite you as a gentleman?" ”

Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, Su Jingxian, and Zhao Run also appeared in front of Kou Ji with a teenager.

Kou Ji snorted coldly, "Some of you have reached the age and can't resist the invitation of your classmates to go to the land of fireworks and willow lanes to play, I can understand."

But Su Shi is just an ignorant boy, is it appropriate for you to take him to the land of Fireworks Willow Lane? ”

Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, Su Jingxian, Zhao Run, and the young man they brought hung their heads together.

Why did they bring Su Shi?

Because it doesn't cost anything to take Su Shi to Lang.

Kou Ji glanced at them, gritted his teeth, and said, "I spared you last time, but you don't have a long memory?" When I'm a good bully as a gentleman, do you still think I can't intimidate people? ”

Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong and others did not dare to speak.

Kou Ji asked coldly, "Whose idea was it?" ”

Wang Anshi gritted his teeth, raised his head and said, "It's a student......"

"We all have a ......"

The others also raised their heads and took the initiative to admit their mistakes.

Kou Ji didn't pay attention to the others, but stared at Wang Anshi and said, "Take the prince to the land of fireworks and willow lane, you don't have the guts." ”

Wang Anshi sighed in his heart and was speechless.

Kou Ji's eyes fell on Zeng Gong, and he snorted coldly: "You don't have a ...... either"

Kou Ji looked at Su Jingxian, "You can't do it even more." ”

In the end, it fell on Zhao Run, "It's you who want to go, they have to accompany you." ”

Zhao Run had a calm face and said in a deep voice: "It's the students who want to go, a few days ago, I heard that Bianjing City will hold a peony poetry meeting every year when it comes to this matter."

The students wanted to go, so they were invited to accompany the students.

The Peony Poetry Club is just an elegant meeting, and there are no things like those flies and dogs, please Mr. Mingjian. ”

Kou Ji sneered: "Do you think that sir, I never go to the land of Fireworks Willow Lane, so I don't know what Yahui is?" ”

Zhao Run hurriedly said: "Don't dare to ......"

The young man who was brought by Zhao Run and the others, seeing that everyone was speechless by Kou Ji, he said with his head in front of him: "Kou Xiang, there are many great talents in the poetry meeting, and students and others can increase their knowledge by talking to them." ”

Kou Ji glanced at the young man coldly, and said sarcastically: "Great talent? The person who lingers under the pomegranate skirt all day long is a great talent? What is in the sanctum that day, above the court? Fool? ”

The young man opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "In the market, there are also great talents to be found. ”

Kou Ji stared at the young man like a torch, "You are very bold. ”

The young man bowed down without words.

"Butler?"

"The villain is here."

"Go to the palace to inform you, and let the official family and the queen see the talents selected by His Royal Highness the Prince."

“……”

Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, Zhao Run, and the young man all raised their heads and looked at Kou Ji in horror.

Kou Ji sneered: "Scared? Now that you know the consequences of your nonsense, be prepared to bear the consequences. ”

Wang Anshi and the others stared and didn't dare to speak.

Koji continued, "You have to be glad that you are attending a meeting, and if it were any other meeting, you would have died. ”

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong gritted their teeth.

Zhao Run lowered his head and said in a trembling voice: "The student knows ...... mistake"

Kou Ji said coldly: "You probably think that people are not romantic. But I can tell you in no uncertain terms that when I'm a student of Koji, keep me away from the women who smell of fat.

Otherwise, I wouldn't mind banishing you all from the portal.

It doesn't matter who you are. ”

Speaking of this, Kou Ji pointed to the young man who came back with Wang Anshi and the others, and said coldly: "You, don't be a leader in this life." Either go to the Tiansheng Pavilion to mingle, or go to the countryside to teach, there is no place for you in the officialdom. ”

The young man's eyes widened and he looked at Kou Ji in horror.

Zeng Gong hurriedly spoke, "Sir, the wrong thing was done by the student, and it has nothing to do with Brother Sima Xian...... I implore Mr. to punish the student and never implicate anyone. ”

Kou Ji asked coldly: "Who does the imperial court use, is it you Zeng Gong who has the final say, or am I and the official family having the final say?" Well? ”

Zeng Gong gritted his teeth and said: "It's obviously the fault of the students and others, why did Mr. get angry with others and ruin people's careers?" ”

Kou Ji sneered: "You still think about whether you can be a good person." I think you should clear it that Zhao Run is not King Shou now, but the crown prince.

What is the identity of the prince, you should know. ”

Zeng Gong's expression darkened.

Zhao Run suddenly stood in front of the person and said in a deep voice: "Everything is the fault of the student alone, if Mr. wants to punish, it is better to punish the student alone." ”

Kou Ji sneered: "You are a king, who dares to punish you?" So if you make a mistake, the people around you have to take you to punishment. You should learn to get used to it, because every time you make a mistake in the future, someone around you will suffer. ”

Zhao Run looked at Kou Ji in disbelief.

Kou Ji sneered and said, "Do you think that even if you become the prince, I will hit your palm." So what I'm saying is wrong? ”

Zhao Run didn't say anything, but he still stared at Kou Ji.

Kou Ji asked, "Can the officials in the palace who taught you anything beat you?" ”

Zhao Run was stunned.

Kou Ji continued: "When I accompanied your father to study, your father made a mistake and I was beaten. The only person in the world who can beat the crown prince is the emperor, and the power I have to beat you is given by your father, and no one else has it. ”

Zhao Run understood the joints, lowered his head, and said in a deep voice: "I beg Mr. to let them go." ”

Kou Ji snorted coldly, "If you still know some rules, then I'll punish you a little." However, those who are admired by you as great talents, if they can't show any real talent and real learning, if the officials blame them, I can't control them. ”

The faces of Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, Zhao Run and others were relaxed at first, and then became very ugly.

Kou Ji slowly spoke, "Wang Anshi translated ten great food books, Zeng Gong annotated ten great food books, Zhao Run...... I won't punish you, and someone will discipline you when you return to the palace.

Su Jingxian, you are weak, I will not punish you heavily, I will beat you ten boards as a punishment.

As for Su Shi...... He was not allowed to eat meat for three months, and he copied ten chapters of the sages. ”

Speaking of this, Kou Ji pointed to the pale young man standing beside him with trembling legs, "You can leave...... Don't go to the door of my Kou Mansion in the future. ”

The young man's body trembled, respectfully saluted Kou Ji, and hurriedly fled from the bamboo courtyard.

After the young man left, Kou Ji instructed Zhao Run, "You go back to the palace...... There should be a good show waiting for you to see in the palace. ”

Zhao Run bowed and agreed.

Kou Ji led Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, Su Jingxian, and Su Shi to the study.

Halfway through, Wang Anshi said in a low voice with a complicated expression: "Sir...... What will the government do with those people? ”

"Official?"

Kou Ji sneered and said, "Let's pass the queen's pass first." ”

Zeng Gong couldn't help but say: "Mr. won't really take away Sima Xian's career, right?" ”

Kou Ji paused, and instead of answering Zeng Gong's question, he asked rhetorically: "Yahui was what he told you, and then you told Zhao Run, right?" ”

Zeng Gong didn't hide it, nodded and admitted the matter.

Wang Anshi said on the side: "Sir, the Yahui is not as unbearable as you think, Mr. and others have participated in a lot before, didn't you punish you?" ”

Kou Ji sneered and asked, "So you can take Su Jingxian, Zhao Run, and Su Shi with you?" ”

Wang Anshi said frankly: "This matter is the student's fault. ”

Kou Ji snorted coldly and said, "You and Zeng Gong have reached the age, I won't say anything anywhere you two go." But Su Jingxian and Su Shi are still young.

Zhao Run's identity can't go to that kind of place.

When you take them with you, you are looking for a fight.

It can even be said to be looking for death. ”

Wang Anshi hesitated and said, "If Yahui speaks, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be able to go, right?" In the past, when Emperor Zhenzong was still in the palace, he often lingered among the Yahui. ”

Kou Ji said disdainfully: "Today, anyone who is talented is either an official in the court, or teaches in major academies, or hides in the mountains and forests.

I recruited officials three times before and after the Great Song Dynasty, but all the big and small talents that could be seen on the street were swept away by the imperial court.

Now those who are full of elegance in Bianjing City are just some corrupt Confucians and perverts.

How can it be compared with the Yahui that Emperor Zhenzong lingered in that year?

If you mess with them, not only will you not be able to learn at all, but you will also learn badly.

Zhao Run can go to those places, but if he marries some unclean women at those so-called elegant meetings and brings them back to the palace, or the golden house hides Jiaojiao, what do you think the official family and the queen will find out? ”

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong's faces instantly turned pale.

If the situation like Kou Ji said really happened, the official family and the queen would kill the two of them who had been by Zhao Run's side first, and then worry about the rest.

Zeng Gong hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, the student knows that this matter is wrong. But you won't cut off Sima Xian's career because of this, right? Although the Yahui was told to us by Sima Xiandi, he did not invite us to go, but we took the initiative to go.

Brother Sima Xian is also a talent, if Mr. cuts off his career, it will be a loss to the court. ”

Kou Ji stared at Zeng Gong and said, "It seems that Sima Guang has left a good impression on you, otherwise you wouldn't be able to speak for him again and again." ”

Zeng Gong said with some surprise: "Mr. knows Brother Sima Xian? ”

Kou Ji said nonchalantly: "The youngest of the four shows in Wenchang, everyone in Bianjing City knows it, how can I not know." ”

Zeng Gong hurriedly said: "Even so, then Mr. should know that Sima Xian is talented." ”

Kou Ji said seriously: "I admit that he is a little talented, but you have been friends with him for so long, haven't you found that he is a person who does not insist?" ”

Zeng Gong looked at Kou Ji in amazement.

Wang Anshi said on the side: "The student just knows that he is inconsistent, but he doesn't know that he doesn't insist. ”

Kou Ji nodded approvingly: "The difference between the outside and the outside is also a pertinent evaluation. What officialdom is most afraid of is this kind of person who does not insist.

He will follow you and help you when you are in power, so that you can withstand all the pressure.

But when you lose power and he gains power, he feels the pressure you were under, and it is very likely that he will overturn everything you have done.

In this way, everything you have done will be in vain. ”

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong glanced at each other in some astonishment.

Wang Anshi couldn't help but say: "But there are many officials of this kind in the officialdom......

Kou Ji nodded and said: "Yes, there are many officials of this kind in the officialdom, but they can't pose a big threat to the imperial court, but Sima Guang can."

Because of his talents, courage, and means of making friends, he was able to climb to a high position.

A person who does not insist on doing things in a low position will not do much harm.

But after climbing to a high position, it will endanger the entire country. ”

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong looked surprised.

They didn't expect Kou Ji to know Sima Guang so deeply, nor did they expect Kou Ji to have such a high opinion of Sima Guang.

"Sir, has you investigated Sima Guang?"

"It's not an investigation, it's just a little heard."

"I see......"

“……”

Koji led them into his study and told them to do their own thing.

A blink is a day.

Next.

Zhao Run's face was pale and he entered Kou Ji's study.

Coji wasn't there.

Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, and Su Jingxian quickly came to Zhao Run's side.

Wang Anshi couldn't wait to ask, "Your father won't really send someone to arrest those people, right?" ”

Zhao Run shook his head.

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong breathed a sigh of relief.

But Zhao Run's next sentence made them angry again, "My father didn't have it, but my mother had them arrested in the palace and examined them." ”

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong looked at Zhao Run nervously, they wanted to know what happened to those people.

Zhao Run gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Three straw bales and two color embryos were killed by my mother on the spot, just in front of me, and the other three who were a little talented were all sent to the border by my mother to go to the herdsmen." ”

Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong stared in shock, and a lot of regret arose in their hearts.

Zeng Gong let out a long sigh, "In the future, let's go to less unclean places." lest others be harmed. ”

Zhao Run's face was ugly and said: "Blame me for this matter, you should go in the future, I won't go." As long as I don't go, no one will suffer. ”

Wang Anshi scolded with a smile: "What nonsense. We are brothers, we are together. Otherwise, we wouldn't know that there was a risk, and we would take you, Su Jingxian, and Xiao Su Shi together. ”

Zeng Gong nodded solemnly and said, "Although we will be monarchs and ministers in the future, we are now senior brothers." Mr. is a person who values affection and righteousness, and we naturally cannot weaken Mr.'s name.

We are now both prosperous and loss-making.

If you say you go, you will go, and if you don't go, you won't go. ”

Su Jingxian added in a low voice on the side, "Advance and retreat together......

Su Shi pouted and said, "Don't eat meat together......"

"Hahaha......"

Su Shi's words full of resentment amused them all.

After Zhao Run smiled, his face looked a lot better.

He found that after Kou Tianci and Liu Boxu left, he had friends again.

A group of little ones talking about brotherhood.

Kou Ji watched from the door, and when he saw that they were still a little sincere, Kou Ji had a smile on his face, turned around and left the door of the study.

Arrived at the side hall.

The housekeeper hurriedly ran to him, bowed down and said: "Master, the official family inspected the Criminal Department today, and saw that Bao Shilang was working, Han Yang and the others were laughing and making trouble, and he was furious, and ordered Han Yang to be suspended for ten years, and went back to the house to think about it."

The Imperial Observatory is already preparing to impeach Han Yang together......"

Kou Ji nodded and smiled: "In this way, Han Yang, the secretary of the criminal department, is afraid that he will be handed over?" ”

The housekeeper nodded with a smile and said, "You went to the official family, and Han Yang, the secretary of the criminal department, is basically sitting at the end." The official family went to inspect the criminal department, just to find an excuse. ”

Kou Ji sighed with emotion: "As soon as Han Yang goes, there will be only one old minister left in the court. Song Qi has always liked to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and should obediently close his mouth and be a mud bodhisattva.

In this way, it is time for the restructuring of the remaining yamen to begin. ”
