"But those officials are all over the yamen of the state capitals of my Great Song Dynasty. They can't be promoted, and the county officials below them can't be promoted, even if they have outstanding political achievements. If their superiors are promoted, they will have no one to restrain them.

So they can't be promoted, and the officials above and below them can't be promoted.

The imperial court can't let the state capitals transfer envoys, pacification envoys and other officials leave their posts, and then send a group of newly entered Jinshi to take their place, right? ”

Kou Ji said helplessly.

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military instantly had the urge to hit the wall.

Even the most stupid people understand that they were calculated by Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen.

But knowing this, they couldn't impeach Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen.

Because Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen just designated a place for them and gave them hoes.

The pit was dug by themselves.

If they accuse Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen of being wrong, then they are also wrong.

What's more, Kou Ji is standing in the shadows when he calculates them, and even if they want to blame Kou Ji, they can't come up with a defensible statement.

Zhao Zhen was standing in the open, but it was useless for them to accuse Zhao Zhen.

Can they still force Zhao Zhen to abdicate?

If they dared to do so, Kou Zhun would be able to pluck off their heads and hang them at the gates of the city.

"Kou Shilang...... Good means......"

The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu stared at Kou Ji with a complicated expression and sighed.

Kou Ji said with a serious face: "This matter has nothing to do with me. ”

The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu just smiled complicatedly, but did not say much.

In the complicated expression of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, the third envoy Li Jian took a step forward, got out of the train, and played loudly: "Minister Li Jian has a plan to play. ”

At this critical juncture, the three divisions made Li Jian run out to do something, which naturally attracted the attention of the Manchu civil and military forces.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked at him.

Zhao Zhen asked with a straight face, "What does Aiqing want to play?" ”

The third envoy Li Jian arched his hand and said: "The powerful official Cao Shilang Kou Ji, since he joined the office, he has made countless meritorious deeds before and after, just because he is young and has repeatedly made meritorious deeds, he is not allowed to be promoted, and the minister thinks that this move is inappropriate."

The minister thought that with Kou Shilang's contribution to the court, he should be promoted to a book. ”

As soon as these words came out, he was shocked.

How old is Kou Ji this year, serving as a Shangshu?

Just kidding, right?

When Kou Zhun, Wang Zeng, and Li Di heard this, they all frowned.

The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu pondered for a while, and instantly understood Li Zheng's intentions.

Kou Ji stared at Li Jian with some astonishment.

He didn't have any relationship with Li Zheng, and he didn't offend Li Zheng, why did Li Zheng want to hurt him?

That's right, it's to hurt him.

Li Qian seems to be fighting for Kou Ji, but in fact he is assassinating Kou Ji.

It's still the same method that Kou Ji used to use.

Kou Ji once used this method to deal with Zhang Lun.

Now Li Zheng also uses the same method against him.

It's just that Kou Ji's purpose at that time was to transfer Zhang Lun and to set up Zhang Lun.

And Li Jian is trying to kill Kou Ji.

He clearly knew that it would be impossible to suppress Kou Ji.

Because several people in power in the imperial court will not agree.

Since it can't be suppressed, it's better to just kill it.

As long as Kou Ji's official position is held to a high place, it is held to a dazzling place.

As soon as Kou Zhun dies, Kou Ji's death will also come.

Because at that time, no one will care how Koji has risen up.

No one counted how much credit Kou Ji had to the imperial court.

Those ruthless officials who did not die would only preach to the people that the reason why Kou Ji was promoted so quickly was because he had a grandfather who was in power.

At that time, not only will Kou Ji die, but Kou Zhun's reputation will also be stinky.

In the vertical arch hall, the only person who is happy is probably Zhao Zhen.

He had been thinking about Kou Ji's promotion for a long time, but he never found a chance.

Now that Li Jian proposed to promote Kou Ji, which is secretly in line with his wishes, he is naturally happy.

He was just about to open his mouth to cater to Li Zheng's words, when he heard Kou Zhun say in a dull voice: "No!" ”

Zhao Zhen heard the displeasure in Kou Zhun's words.

Although he didn't guess Li Zhen's intentions, he heard something wrong from Kou Zhun's words.

It seems that Li Xianzuo asked for Kou Ji's promotion, which is a bit ill-intentioned.

He thought of this, and did not speak.

Wang Qinruo took a step forward and said loudly: "The minister also thinks that with Kou Ji's contribution to the imperial court, it should be a book. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

“……”

Nearly sixty percent of the civil officials stood up in an instant and asked for Kou Ji's promotion.

In doing so, they are pandering to Li Zheng.

But they think differently than Mr. Lee.

Li Jian is to kill Kou Ji.

The officials wanted Kou Ji to be transferred out of the ministry.

Kou Ji stayed in the Ministry for half a year, and was stunned to make a good achievement of only 100 people being promoted.

If Kou Ji had been in the Ministry for a year, who knew what kind of moth he would have made?

Kou Zhun's face was gloomy and terrifying.

Li Di and Wang Zeng's faces were not good-looking.

The officials saw Kou Zhun's face gloomy, and their hearts were also drumming.

They were afraid that Kou Zhun would get mad and take a few heads to get angry.

Just when Kou Zhun was about to open his mouth to question the hundred officials.

Gao Chu Gong suddenly came out of class and asked: "The minister also thinks that Kou Ji can be appointed as a scholar." ”

As Gao Zuo Gong spoke, other martial artists also spoke.

In the end, Zhao Yuanyan also said in a rare voice: "Xiao Wang also thinks that Kou Ji should be a book." Now the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Crime, and the Ministry of Industry, the three books are still vacant.

It doesn't hurt to let Kou Ji try. ”

Although Zhao Yuanyan seems to have no real power in his hands, his status and weight are sufficient.

He also co-opted many officials in secret, and as he spoke, some officials followed suit.

Kou Zhun was about to open his mouth to be angry.

Li Di took the first step and said, "Are you taking the court's major affairs as a child's play?" ”

Li Di pointed to Kou Jidao; "How old is Kou Ji, and he is a scholar, I owe it to you to say this. Let's not talk about Kou Ji's credit, experience alone is not enough to control one.

The old man will give you a chance to take back your stupid words.

Otherwise, the old man will definitely cure you for the crime of lying to you. ”

Li Jian bowed his hand and said righteously: "The minister's sentences come from the bottom of his heart, why do you say anything in vain?" ”

"The ministers are also from the bottom of their hearts."

“……”

Kou Zhun stood up suddenly, his eyes widening.

However, without waiting for him to speak, Kou Ji took the first step and stepped forward and said: "The official family, the Taishi, since the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military hospitality is difficult, the minister will accept it." ”

When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, there was a stir.

Kou Zhun, Li Di, and Wang Zeng frowned in unison.

Kou Zhun scolded in court: "Kou Ji, do you know what you're talking about. ”

Kou Ji bowed, "Naturally, I know." ”

Kou Zhun said angrily: "I know that I dare to talk nonsense here." ”

Kou Ji smiled: "Xiaguan is not talking nonsense. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty begged for the lower officials, which is something that others envy and cannot envy, why didn't the lower officials agree? ”

When Kou Zhun heard this, he didn't care about the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military strategies, and he reminded with a gloomy face: "Do you know how powerful this is?" ”

Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "Not only do I know, but I know it very clearly." It is precisely because of clarity that Xia Guan agreed to serve as a Shangshu. ”

Kou Ji bowed solemnly and said, "Please also ask the Taishi to believe in the lower officials." ”

"Believe it!"

Kou Zhun was completely annoyed, and he didn't care about the etiquette of the court, so he scolded loudly.

He stared at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and said indignantly: "This matter violates the promotion system of the imperial court, and the old man does not allow it." You and others also did not mention the matter. ”

"Taishi ......"

Li Tan opened his mouth to speak.

Kou Zhun roared angrily: "Whoever mentions it again, the old man will punish him for the crime of disturbing the court!" ”

In the past, when Kou Zhun said this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would no longer speak.

But today is different.

When Kou Zhun shouted this.

Li Jian raised his head and straightened his chest, walked straight to the bottom of the imperial steps, stared at Kou Zhun, and said loudly: "The ministers are on the matter, and they will never disturb the court's actions." On the contrary, it was the Taishi who obstructed Kou Shilang from entering the official many times, so what was he planning behind his back? ”

Kou Zhun glared and said angrily: "The old man is loyal to the official family, and he has no second thoughts. On the contrary, it's you, the old man has already given a gag order, but you are still talking nonsense here. Is it an ornament to be the chief regent of the old man? ”

"Where is the avant-garde?"

"In!"

"Fork out!"

"Wait!"

Just when the palace avant-garde was about to leave with Li Xian.

Wang Qinruo stepped forward and said loudly: "If the Taishi punishes others because of his outspoken admonition, then please punish the sin together with the old man." ”

Zhao Yuanyan slowly stepped out of the ranks and said, "Xiao Wang also thinks that it is a bit too much for the Taishi to punish others because of his outspoken admonitions. Taishi really wants to punish the crime, together with Xiao Wang. ”

As Zhao Yuanyan spoke, dozens of officials in the court followed suit.

Under the persecution of these people, Kou Zhun gritted his teeth angrily.

But he no longer let people fork Li out.

Li Zheng, Wang Qinruo, and even the dozens of officials who spoke together were not enough in Kou Zhun's eyes.

If Kou Zhun had a darker heart, there would be countless reasons to make them become ministers, corrupt officials, and behead them at the entrance of the vegetable market.

But with one more Zhao Yuanyan, the situation is different.

In the absence of Zhao Yuanzuo, Zhao Yuanyan was faintly acting as the head of the clan.

His attitude is not only on behalf of him, but also on behalf of the Zhao clan.

Kou Zhun's current status made it impossible for him to deal with the Zhao clan.

If he attacks the Zhao clan, that ill-intentioned hat will not be able to escape.

If he has a different heart, now is the best time to do it.

But he didn't have any dissent, not only did he not, but he was also loyal to Zhao Zhen.

Since he was loyal, he couldn't do some time to cross the line.

He knows better than anyone that the higher his status, the more he can't cross the line.

Because once he crosses the line, it is tantamount to sending a signal to those loyal officials.

A signal to usurp the throne.

When the time comes, he doesn't need to do anything, and the officials who are loyal to him will help him get everything done properly.

For example, Zhu Neng, who was guarding the gate of the palace and had a smiling face when he saw everyone.

If he had obtained Kou Zhun's intention of usurping the throne, he would definitely not hesitate to lead his troops into the dormitory of Zhao Zhen, Liu E and others, and send them to see the first emperor together.

Then respectfully Fu Kou quasi-ascended.

When Kou Zhun dies, he will respectfully send Kou Ji to the throne.

It is precisely because he knows the consequences of crossing the line that he has been following the duty that a courtier should have, and he does not dare to cross the thunder pool by half a step.

Now that Zhao Yuanyan is forcing him to neither advance nor retreat, he feels very uncomfortable.

If he wasn't the chief regent, he wouldn't need to be so uncomfortable.

Like Zhao Yuanyan, a member of the Zhao clan, he has not taught him a lesson.

As early as the reign of Taizong, he stopped the prince's carriage on the street, and also dragged the prince to the vertical arch hall to find Zhao Guangyi's theory.

The end result was that the prince was beaten, but he didn't do anything.

Li Di seemed to see Kou Zhun's embarrassment, he stepped forward, stared at Zhao Yuanyan, and scolded: "Zhao Yuanyan, go back." Although you are classified as the great patriarch of the clan, you have no real position and are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the court. ”

Li Di is also domineering enough, and when he came up, he pointed at Zhao Yuanyan's nose and scolded.

Zhao Yuanyan smiled brightly: "Xiao Wang didn't interfere in the government affairs, just on a case-by-case basis." ”

Wang Qinruo smiled strangely on the side: "The Taishi is unfair, and if you don't use a good talent like Kou Shilang, don't you let the Manchu Dynasty discuss it?" If the official family is at fault, we can still talk about it, why can't the Taishi do it?

Could it be that the Taishi is already above the official family? ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military forces changed.

Wang Qinruo's words were a bit heavy, and there was an implication that Kou Zhun was going to usurp the throne.

Li Di was annoyed for a moment.

Wang Zeng was also annoyed.

Li Di raised his hand and threw it over.

Wang Qinruo hurriedly dodged in fright, and finally only hit the floor tiles under Wang Qinruo's feet.

Wang Zeng stared at Wang Qinruo and roared angrily: "Wang Qinruo, you are such an important minister in the court, how dare you talk nonsense on the vertical arch hall?" ”

Wang Zeng hugged Kou Zhun and Zhao Zhen, and shouted at Wang Qinruo: "During the period of Taishi's administration, he was diligent and diligent, and he did not dare to slack off in the slightest. Handle government affairs every day, busy from morning to night.

After handling government affairs, they still have to teach the officials how to manage government, and they often teach them until late at night.

I am so busy every day that I can't go back to my home, and I have children and grandchildren at my knees, but I can't enjoy my family. ”

When Zhao Zhen heard Wang Zeng's words, he nodded seriously and said, "I can testify." ”

Wang Zeng took three steps forward, approached Wang Qinruo, and said coldly: "Taishi is for the country and the people, how can you slander it casually if you work so hard." ”

When Wang Qinruo saw Wang Zeng stepping forward, he thought that Wang Zeng was going to make a move, so he took a step back in fright.

Seeing that Wang Zeng didn't mean to do anything, he stubbornly said: "Everyone knows that you and Li Di have a close personal relationship with Taishi, and now help Taishi speak......

"Shut up!"

Wang Zeng roared and shouted: "If you dare to say more, the old man will let you see what a dead admonition is!" ”

Wang Qinruo opened his mouth.

Wang Zeng narrowed his eyes.

Wang Qinruo saw that Wang Zeng was not scaring him, so he didn't dare to say a word in a frightened manner.

What is Death Advice?

Is the death admonition a joke?

Death admonition was the most ruthless admonition of the Great Song Dynasty.

The important ministers above the second rank take death as a note and advise the officials.

As long as the current officials do not abdicate and do not directly take the life of a certain important minister of the court, no matter what advice is given, the current officials must adopt it.

Wang Zengruo admonished the official's family with death and demoted Wang Qinruo to a commoner.

Wang Qinruo could only be reduced to a commoner.

With the prestige of the king among the people, on the second day when Wang Qinruo was demoted to a commoner, the people of the people could beat him to death.
