Kou Ji was reminded by the eunuch all the way to the Shishitang.

Standing in front of the capital hall, Kou Ji glared at the eunuch.

The eunuch was dry and accompanied by a smile.

Kou Ji ripped his clothes, tilted the official hat on his head, and shouted, "It's unfair......"

"It's unfair!"

Kou Ji shouted these three words in a mournful voice, and in the shocked eyes of the eunuch, he entered the capital hall.

In the Shishitang, Liu E is in the first seat and is listening to the government, and since she ended her self-imprisonment and reappeared in the Shishitang, she has been in a state of listening to the government.

She only listens, only looks, and does not speak.

In her own words, she is helping the official's family listen to the government, but she doesn't dare to help the official's family manage the government.

Kou Zhun, Li Di, Ding Wei, Cao Yu, Wang Zeng, and a group of people, sitting under her, were busy with the political affairs that happened in the imperial court.

Kou Ji shouted, which really shocked them.

They put down the government affairs in their hands one after another and looked outside the door of the capital hall.

Kou Zhun frowned and roared angrily: "Who is howling outside the door and giving the old man a stick......"

Halfway through his words, he saw Kou Ji shouting with a sad face and entering the capital hall.

Immediately, Kou Zhun stopped his words, glared and said, "What are you howling about, this is a place where you can mess around?" ”

Kou Ji arched his hand.

"Minister, see the queen mother."

"Your Excellency has seen you."

After Kou Ji gave the salute, he shouted again: "What an injustice! ”

Liu E, Ding Wei and others subconsciously looked at Kou Zhun, and they wanted to see how Kou Zhun handled this matter.

Kou Zhun said angrily: "What's unfair, what's unfair, you have to have grievances, go to Dali Temple to shout grievances, go to Kaifeng Mansion to shout grievances, this is not a place for you to fool around, let the old man out." ”

Kou Ji arched his hand and said with a bitter face: "The lower official shouted injustice, not for himself, but for the lower official's Shangguan Zhang Lun. ”

Liu E, Kou Zhun and others were stunned when they heard this.

Shouting injustice for Zhang Lun?

What the hell is going on?

Zhang Lun's official residence is a fourth-grade official, he is an important minister of the court, and he can participate in the court meeting at any time, and he needs you to shout about his injustice?

"Get out!"

Kou Zhun was completely annoyed.

Kou Ji not only didn't listen, but said loudly: "My Shangguan is loyal, and I have been wronged on weekdays, and I refuse to speak, but I can't stand it, and I must help him talk about it." ”

Kou Zhun still had to open his mouth to reprimand.

But he heard Ding Wei say: "The old man wants to hear what kind of grievances Zhang Lun has suffered, and it is worth you to break into the capital hall and shout injustice for him." ”

Li Di glared at Ding Wei and scolded: "The child is fooling around, and you are also messing around, what kind of system will you become." ”

Ding Wei pursed his lips and said lightly: "In your eyes, he is a child, but in the eyes of the old man, he is an official of the court and a protégé of the Son of Heaven." Since he is an official, he is naturally qualified to talk about the government. ”

Kou Zhun frowned, wanting to reprimand Ding Wei.

Liu E suddenly spoke: "This palace thinks that Ding Xiang's words are reasonable. Kou Aiqing, although Kou Ji is your grandson, he is also an official of my Great Song Dynasty. In Koufu, you are the ancestors and grandchildren, and in the Shishitang, you are both officials of the imperial court.

But whatever is beneficial to our Great Song Dynasty and Sheji, we have to listen to it. ”

Since Liu E ended her self-imprisonment, she has always adhered to her duty as a queen, and everything has been based on Kou Zhun's intentions, and Kou Zhun is not good at embarrassing her again.

Now she suddenly opened her mouth to help Kou Ji speak, and everything made sense.

Kou Zhun couldn't refute it.

Kou Zhun groaned for a moment, glared at Kou Ji, and frowned, "Don't you say it soon?!" ”

Kou Ji hurriedly said: "The lower officials feel that the imperial court is unfair to my Shangguan Zhang Lun. I Shangguan Zhang Lun, Taizong entered the office, successively Zhiyi, Peng, Jian, Chen and other states, where they passed, the thieves were frightened, either raised the flag to surrender, or were all exterminated, governing the place, there is a great contribution.

He also sent envoys to the Liao State successively to exchange peace for many years for our Great Song Dynasty.

During the Dazhong Xiangfu years, the salt class suffered a big loss, and I went to the official Zhang Lun to go to Tong, Tai, and Chu prefectures to govern the salt households, and increase the salt class by hundreds of thousands of stones. In addition, salt farms were set up in Hangzhou, Xiu, and Haizhou, and another 1.5 million stones were entered into the salt class.

In just two years, the three prefectures of Hangzhou, Xiu and Hai not only increased the salt class, but also increased the supply of rice 800,000 stones, dredged five canals, guided Taihu Lake into the sea, and released 600,000 stones.

Since then, I have been appointed to Zhang Lun, and I have successively served in Taizhou, Zhaozhou, Qinzhou, Yingzhou, and Cangzhou.

The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, in terms of merit, how many people are comparable to my officials?

Yan Shu entered the court at the age of fourteen, and has been in the dynasty for fourteen years, and has little credit to the court, but he can rank among the four ranks, which is the same as my Shangguan.

How can I not be wronged?

Just because I'm a Shangguan and not a Jinshi, you treat him like this?

In the long run, all the scholars of the Manchu Dynasty followed Yan Shu's example, and how many people can do things for the court and reassure the people for the court like me as Shangguan?

If the people are uneasy, where is the country? ”

Kou Ji finished speaking.

Kou Zhun, Liu E and others were stunned on the spot.

They have seen a lot of impeachment of Shangguan, whispering bad things about Shangguan, secretly exposing Shangguan's shortcomings, or patting Shangguan's horses.

But it was the first time they had seen those who helped Shangguan to hold grievances and help Shangguan to ask for officials.

What's more, as Kou Ji counted Zhang Lun's contributions one by one, they felt that what Kou Ji said was very reasonable.

Zhang Lun has been an official for decades and can be regarded as a cadre.

There is also a lot of credit for Li.

But it was just that he was born in the wrong place, and he failed to pass the scientific examination three times, and he made up for a third-class job.

Therefore, in the officialdom, it is always the weaker than those officials who were born as jinshi.

Therefore, whenever it is time to be promoted, others are either promoting their protégés, or promoting their old classmates.

Only Zhang Lun, no one to support.

Moreover, he is an official outside, and most of the places he goes to are poor, and even if he is sent to a rich place, he is to gnaw hard bones that others are unwilling to gnaw.

is only after every time he makes a great contribution, he alarms the court, and the officials will promote him.

That's it, some people in the court who don't want to see Zhang Lun, a man from a wild background, get promoted, and they have to suppress it.

In the past, Zhang Lun's grandmother didn't hurt, but his uncle didn't love it, and no one helped him cry out.

Now, Kou Ji shouted for him.

Kou Ji saw that everyone was stunned in place, and didn't speak, so he said with a bitter face: "Niangniang, my lords, is this fair?" ”

Kou Zhun and the others frowned and said nothing.

Ding Wei opened his mouth and wanted to help, but swallowed the words into his stomach.

Speaking carefully, Ding Wei's previous experience is somewhat similar to Zhang Lun.

When he was an official outside, he also made countless meritorious contributions, but he couldn't get promoted.

So, his mind turned and he embarked on the road of gluttony.

Only then did he prosper all the way and make steady progress.

For Zhang Lun's experience, he should be the most sympathetic person.

Inside the capital hall, it was quiet, and the pins could be heard.

After a long time.

Wang Zeng suddenly spoke: "In the Criminal Department, there is still a lack of a powerful Cao Shangshu......

Cao Shangshu, the third product, the official of the pension.

The power of the Criminal Department has been hollowed out by the Criminal Department and Dali Temple.

The criminal department is up and down, and they are all in a state of retirement.

When Kou Zhun and the others heard this, some frowned, and some nodded secretly.

promoted Zhang Lun to Cao Shangshu, although he was promoted to an official, it did not affect the division of power in the court, nor did he take away power from any of them.

What's more, Zhang Lun was promoted to a pension official, and those officials who were born as jinshi would not be looking for trouble.

Why not?

He has merit, and someone helps him hold grievances, so he should be promoted.

Anyway, the imperial court just issued more money.

And it's not taking money out of their pockets.

Moreover, Zhang Lun was transferred out of the Criminal Division, and they could find a way to arrange their own people in and take charge of the Criminal Division.

Zhang Lun's guy is smelly and weekdays, and he is not obedient at all, and it is good for them to change to an obedient one.

The old man thought ...... OK! ”

Ding Wei was the first to speak.
