Chapter 41: Poisoning and Dismissal of Officials Response
Ji Wen left the temple and came to the residence of Li Heng, the residence of the Ten Princes.
Ji Wen is Li Yan's brother-in-law, but he is closer to Li Heng.
He can have today's status, which is also the idea that Li Heng gave him.
Pei Min became the main assistant, and with the heroic position of Shangshu Ling, he was in charge of the six departments, and capable officials like Zhang Jiuling and Song Jing were responsible for the affairs of Shangshu Province.
The deployment and review of the officials of the ministry were all through the hands of the two of them.
Song Jing is a first-class magistrate in the world, and he is particularly strict with the review of officials. And Zhang Jiuling is also a clear stream in the political arena, and Qujiang's demeanor is famous for a while.
In the face of the two of them, the mediocre and greedy unvirtuous people have little possibility to take on great responsibilities.
Jiwen has talent but no virtue, and there is no room for development.
Li Heng asked Ji Wen to beg his sister, develop the strength of his relatives, and lay a political foundation for Concubine Ji to squeeze out Empress Wei.
Ji Wen was like a chicken blood, and let Concubine Ji force Li Yan to promote herself.
What woman doesn't aspire to the queen's throne in the world?
Li Yan's temperament was already weak and unassertive, so Concubine Ji was forced to really lift Ji Wen.
Ji Wen is grateful to Li Heng and regards him as his best friend, and he will tell Li Heng whenever there is a major event in the temple.
And Li Heng will also prepare a shortcut route to the high position for him......
Ji Wen told Li Heng about An Sishun's recital, and also attached his own opinion: "I think this is An Sishun's unfounded worries, or it is ill-intentioned. Why did Zhang Kang rebel? With less than 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hands? ”
Li Hengxin laughed "idiot", he knew more about Liaodong.
Pei Min launched the rectification of Liaodong after he ascended to the throne, and he was personally responsible for this matter, not only cut off Liaodong's military resources, forcibly ended the war with the Bohai State, but also mobilized Shuofang and Hedong armies to semi-surround Yanyun, and invited Zhang Shouqi to Chang'an under house arrest.
This series of heavy punches is just a prelude.
As long as there is real evidence, the change of commander in the Northeast is a certainty.
If it weren't for the sudden war in the West, Pei Min would have led the people to the west, and the situation in the Northeast would have been flattened by peaceful means.
Zhang Shouqi and Zhang Kangkang are self-respecting, if there is really evidence in Pei Min's hands, they have to lose their skin if they don't die.
In order to protect himself, Zhang Kang took advantage of Pei Min's expedition to the west, and it was reasonable for him to rebel.
But through his mouth, what he said was different: "I also think that An Sishun is a little alarmist, that Zhang Kang is just a Khitan man, why rebel?" I think An Sishun has bad intentions and intends to force Zhang Kang to rebel, so that he can make a contribution to quelling the rebellion. ”
Ji Wen snorted and said, "That's true, when this imperial history is a soft rice can't be eaten?" ”
Seeing off Ji Wen, Li Heng couldn't help but grin.
**********
Chang'an Post House.
Zhang Shoujue's life in Chang'an was not comfortable.
Most of the people who can mix in Gyeonggi have a certain eyesight.
As the famous border commander of the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Shouqi fell into today's field, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that Pei Min is governing him.
As the Shang Shuling and auxiliary minister of the Tang Dynasty, and the first leader of civil and military affairs, Pei Min's power is almost to the extreme of the ministers, compared with Zhou Gongdan, Yi Yin, and Huo Guang in history.
Who does he want to deal with?
Zhang Shouqi entered Beijing this time and brought a large number of local products from the Northeast, intending to give gifts and intercede for himself.
But to this day, none of the officials in Chang'an, large and small, dare to accept his gifts.
Not only that, even if he licked his face and begged to see him, no one dared to meet him.
Zhang Shouqi also has a great feeling that the down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken, thinking back to his past years, he and Pei Min are called double walls, what a scenery it is, where did he think that it was only a long time before he landed on this field.
"Zhang Dashuai!"
Zhang Shouqi looked at Liu Luogu in front of him and laughed at himself: "Handsome? Where did the handsome come from now, it's just fish meat on the knife board. ”
Liu Luogu comforted him, and was about to speak, when suddenly the guards outside the house came to report, saying that he had been summoned by His Majesty.
Zhang Shouqi's spirit was shocked, it has been more than a month since he came to Chang'an, except when he first arrived in Chang'an, Li Yan saw him once, and he had never seen Long Yan.
Recruit yourself to meet today, could it be that things have taken a turn for the better?
Zhang Shouqi was overjoyed and said: "I'll change my clothes and enter the court!" ”
Liu Luogu got up and said, "I don't know how long the handsome man has been here, let's drink the medicine first, so as not to ...... after the hour" He said and went to get the medicinal soup for Zhang Shouqi.
Zhang Shouqi changed his clothes and drank the medicinal soup brought by Liu Luogu.
The medicinal soup was slightly bitterer than the one I drank in the past, and Zhang Shouqi didn't care.
Zhang Shouqi hurriedly entered the palace, thinking that there would be something good, but what he didn't want to wait for him was a confrontation.
Emperor Li Yan, Li Yi, Wang Hui, Du Xian, Yuan Qianyao, and Li Yuanhong were five ministers who came from Shuofang to send an edict.
An Sishun explained his suspicions to the imperial court.
Only then did Zhang Shouqi know that he had summoned him to the palace today, and he actually meant to interrogate.
Under the instigation of his son Zhang Kang, Zhang Shouqi did some illegal things because he was keen on power, but he really had no intention of rebelling, and in panic, he hurriedly knelt on the ground to defend himself.
Zhang Shouqi believed in his righteous son too much, and also played a package ticket for Zhang Kang, saying that he was fiercely loyal to the imperial court.
The more Zhang Shouqi spoke, the more rapid his breathing became, his face became more and more red, and suddenly a mouthful of blood sprayed in front of the hall, and he fell headlong.
This sudden change made Li Yan and all the ministers in the hall exclaim.
"Quick, pass on the Imperial Doctor!"
Li Yi was accustomed to seeing life and death, and reacted the most quickly, shouting to summon the imperial doctor.
However, the poison that Zhang Shouqi took was a chronic medicine, and little by little, it unconsciously became deeper into the viscera, especially the justification when he was excited, which accelerated the circulation and flow of blood in the body, and promoted the concurrency of toxicity, which was powerless.
Li Yan has no master, and Li Yi, Wang Hui, Du Xian, Yuan Qianyao, and Li Yuanhong could not imagine that this situation would be the case, and they could only put the matter on hold for a while.
Li Yi, Wang Hui, and Du Xian got together.
"How much do you think what An Jiedu said is true and how much is false?"
Wang Hui said: "It's hard to say, but Pei Xiang's attitude, you and I both know, and I can't rule out the possibility of them making a desperate bet!" ”
Du Xian also said: "I think it's better to believe what you have than what you don't have." ”
Li Yi was silent for a while and said: "I take Guo Ziyi as the guard of Changshan County, what do you think?" ”
Wang Hui and Du Xian were both people who knew the soldiers, their eyes lit up, and they said in unison: "Wonderful! ”
Changshan County is located in the throat of the north and south, and if the Northeast Army really wants to rebel, Changshan will bear the brunt, and the strategic location is very important.
Just as they were formulating a countermeasure, they unexpectedly got a piece of news.
An Sishun asked the dismissal of the official: Cheng Jiwen impeached An Sishun in the imperial history, saying that An Sishun framed Zhongliang, and for his own selfish interests, he framed the Liaodong general for his own selfish interests, and forced Zhang Shouqi to die Mingzhi.
Li Yan listened to the slander, directly dismissed An Sishun's official position, and handed him over to the Yushitai for disposal.
