Zhao Shu wanted Gan Qi to come out and say a word at this moment.

But Gan Qi disappointed Zhao Shu, Gan Qi didn't come out to speak, just watched Zhao Shu sit on the high platform like a puppet.

Zhao Shu's anxious expression was slightly disappointed.

As the court dispersed, Gan Qi walked to the door of the left door, looked back at the imperial city, and sighed deeply.

If Bao Zheng was still there, how could Han Qi in the court be so relaxed today?

It's a pity that Bao Zheng is gone.

Gan Qi did not go back to the Yamen, but went directly out of the city, met Di Qing, told Di Qing about the affairs of the court, and went to watch a ball game before entering the city.

At home, Gan Qi and Zhao Zonglan said: "Lady, tomorrow you can take the people in your family out of the city to live for a few days." ”

"Husband, what's wrong? Why do you want to go out of the city at this time? Zhao Zonglan seemed to be able to feel something.

"It's nothing, I will live in the old house for a few days, the old house can't always be empty, go back and live for a few days every year, and there are some popularity." Gan Qi explained.

Zhao Zonglan didn't ask any more questions, even though there were many conjectures and worries in her heart, she just nodded: "Hmm." ”

After arranging the family, Gan Qi went out again, and I don't know who else to meet tonight.

In the Han Palace.

Someone also stood in front of Han Qi and reported: "Xianggong, Gan Qi met with the official family yesterday. ”

"Oh? What did the two say? Han Qi asked.

"Forgive the incompetence of the subordinates, the two talked secretly, the subordinates didn't know what the two were talking about, they only knew that the two had met for a very short time, and it shouldn't be too late to plan anything."

"What about today? What is Ganchi doing today? ”

"Today, he did not return to the Imperial Court after going down to the court, but went out of the city to see Di Qing, and the time was not long, and then he went to watch a ball game, and then went to the city and went home."

"See Di Qing?"

"Returning to the father-in-law, it is Di Qing."

"Is this old dog still alive? The old man has almost forgotten him, what is this old dog doing now? ”

"Di Qing is still training those sumo wrestlers for Ganchi, more than a hundred and dozen, and this year there are more more."

"Hmph...... Is this a private training of soldiers and horses? Han Qi asked with a smile.

"Xianggong said that he is, then he is naturally so!"

Han Qi nodded: "What a big crime!" ”

Han Qi knew that Di Qing's training of sumo wrestlers was not today, but today he took this as evidence of his guilt. When Renzong was there, Han Qi knew that this big sin didn't make sense in Renzong.

But now that Renzong is gone, and the court is decided by the Empress Dowager Cao, then this big crime makes sense.

"The husband is clever!"

Han Qi waved his hand: "Send a few posts out, and let people impeach this matter in front of the Queen Mother tomorrow." ”

"Yes!"

"And that Gan Qi will also be impeached together, he is the person behind this matter, and Di Qing is just a lackey under his command." Han Qi now has to deal with Gan Qi again, and he no longer has to find a way, because the referee has changed, and the referee is no longer Renzong Zhao Zhen.

This also shows how important it was to be a Ming monarch in the feudal era.

"Don't worry, your subordinates know how to handle it."

Han Qi nodded and smiled slightly.

Getting up early in the morning, Gan Qi personally arranged for the family to go out of the city.

In the afternoon, Shi Honglei finally came back from Quanzhou and went to the Third Division to serve again, but Gan Qi did not see him.

When Gan Qi arrived at the Academy, he had not yet sat down in his room.

Tang Jie came in a hurry, and said with an anxious face: "Dao Jian, something is wrong, someone has entered the palace today to impeach you, and the Yushitai side has received the will of the palace and started to investigate you." ”

"Oh? What is the matter of impeaching me? Ganchi didn't seem surprised.

"Privately train soldiers and horses." Tang Jie replied.

Gan Qi laughed out loud instead: "I don't know where I trained my soldiers and horses? ”

"You can still laugh, saying that you and Di Qing are training soldiers and horses outside the city, with armor and blades, and they train hundreds of people a year, and now there are thousands of dead soldiers under your command." Tang Jie was really anxious for Gan Qi.

"There is armor, and it is needed for the game, and there are dozens of teams in Bianliang City, and each team has armor. The training staff is also real, all of them are sumo wrestlers in the sumo ring, two levels of leagues, the contracted and unsigned together, there are always five or six hundred people. Isn't this a crime of rebellion? Gan Qi asked.

"Right and wrong, black and white, where do you have to say, I have written to Your Majesty...... The Queen Mother, in order to exonerate me, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will not believe me. Tang Jie said.

Gan Qi sneered a few times: "Hmph...... It's too ugly to eat, when the emperor was there, who dared to frame it like this? ”

"Dao Jian, what's the use of saying this? You'll have to find a way to prove your innocence. Tang Jie also frowned and thought.

"With such innocence, do you still need to prove yourself? How many people go to watch sumo wrestling games in Bianliang every day? It's not that I trained soldiers and horses privately with the intention of rebelling, but which of the people in Bianliang City would believe it? What is the danger of adding to the sin? ”

Gan Qi's words, in Tang Jie's opinion, seemed to be angry, Tang Jie could only say again: "Dao Jian, at this time, when it is no longer a matter of will, when you think of a way to break the situation, what if you know that it is framed?" When Han Qi, the prime minister of the court, wants to cut you, and you still offend the Empress Dowager Cao to death, you can't be so casual, you should find a way! ”

Gan Qi spread his hands and said, "I'm a five-grade petty official, what can I do?" There are countless officials in the DPRK and China, but is everyone blind? There are many ministers, is there no one who thinks that this matter should not be? ”

A person suddenly walked in at the door, it was Sima Guang of the Tongzhi Academy, he said: "I don't think this matter should be, when the Cao family case, I was in Kaifeng Mansion on an errand, and what I was willing to do was what the gentleman did, so I shouldn't be retaliated against now. I became a book, asking the Queen Mother to return to the official family, and it is the righteousness of the government to be pro-government with the official family. ”

Sima Guang suddenly walked in and said such a thing, and Gan Qi was a little surprised.

Sima Guang has done a lot of wrong things in his life, but they are all in public affairs and political opinions, and above private morality, there is nothing missing.

Historically, when the Empress Dowager Cao controlled the government and the two palaces were out of harmony, Sima Guang was also one of the first people to come out to persuade the Empress Dowager Cao to let go of power.

Political struggles have become a few simple sentences written in the history books, but the danger is far from being as simple as these few sentences.

The queen mother and the emperor compete for power and profit, how can it be so simple?

The last people left by the Renzong Dynasty actually still maintain the spirit of the Renzong Dynasty. Otherwise, if Zhao Shu wants to be pro-government, it is almost impossible.

Tang Jie heard Sima Guang's words, and also said: "I will go to the book with you, how can there be such a truth in this world?" The new emperor has already reached adulthood, and he is not young and ignorant, how can the queen mother still be in charge of the government? As long as the official family is in power, there is no room for framing. ”

"Yes, the official family is in charge, and the crisis at this time will be solved." Sima Guang simply couldn't see the darkness.

Gan Qi poured a basin of cold water: "Thank you two below!" But the book is just a book, and the Empress Dowager Cao has already done such a thing, how can she easily put down her power? ”

"The ancestors have etiquette laws, so they should follow the etiquette laws, how can they let the harem interfere in politics?" Sima Guang thought a little simply.

"The day after tomorrow, let's go! Dao Jian, you also have to speak, when the time comes, everyone in the court will speak out and admonish, throughout history, where will the people who are involved in politics in the harem have a good end? "Tang Jie is very upright.

Ganchi just shook his head. It's okay if there is no Han Qi in this matter, once Han Qi stands on the side of the Queen Mother, things will no longer be so simple.

The dynasty will rise again.

Above the court, there are many people who are still there, and the leader is Ouyang Xiu, who was promoted to the governor of the government when Renzong was still there, and before everyone could speak, Ouyang Xianggong was the first to speak: "Minister Ouyang Xiu has a performance." ”

Zhao Shu, who was on the high platform, wanted to say a word, but was preempted by the Empress Dowager Cao: "Ouyang Xianggong, please speak." ”

Ouyang Xiu frowned and said: "The new emperor is on the verge of the dynasty, and the minister thinks that the queen mother should return to the new emperor, the new emperor is ordered by the edict of the previous emperor, and he has already reached adulthood. ”

Empress Cao didn't speak when she heard this, but looked at Han Qi.

Han Qi naturally came out to speak: "What Ouyang Xianggong said is not right, now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, it is a time when the Quartet is unstable, when the Queen Mother first stabilizes the inside and outside, with the name justified, the whole world is obeyed, and after the political situation is stable, His Majesty will govern in person." ”

Sima Guang stood up directly: "I don't know what Han Xiang said, what is the truth?" Inside and outside the court, where is the instability? ”

Han Qi glanced at Sima Guang and said, "Where is it unstable, do you still use the old man to say more?" If there is no queen mother, I don't know how many people will covet the throne, if the official family is the son of the former emperor, where is the need to work hard for the queen mother? ”

Some people echoed Han Qi's words: "It is still Han Xiang's lofty plan, the Queen Mother is in the dynasty, and everything is based on the overall situation." ”

"What Han Xiang said is extremely true!"

Ouyang Xiu and Sima Guang looked at these people who echoed them, and they were so angry that they had nothing to say, and they didn't know what to say.

Tang Jie came out and said: "Even if you listen to the government, then you have to ask Your Majesty about everything to make a decision, listening to the government is only to supervise and ask, not to act on behalf of the government, Your Majesty is in the court, why don't you ask Your Majesty about everything?" ”

Han Qi asked instead, "Why haven't you asked Your Majesty?" The old man also asked His Majesty about the increase in troops in the northwest. Don't you wait, but you still blame others? Everything is naturally important to His Majesty, the Queen Mother is the duty of overseer, and the old man has never trespassed. If you want to talk about trespassing, there is a person in the court, who really dares to do such a thing, and he dares to train people outside Bianliang privately, what is his intention? ”

Tang Jie immediately said: "Han Xiang, this matter is still under investigation, how can you make a conclusion casually?" ”

"Since it has been verified, then call Gan Qi out and ask him, why did he let General Di Qingdi train so many men for him every year, and he also secretly hid blades and heavy armor?" Han Qi directly attacked.

Gan Qi knew that he couldn't hide, so he could only take a few steps forward and replied: "Your Majesty, the minister has never had any rebellious heart, the so-called private armor is not actually a private collection, but a ball game, there are dozens of large and small teams in Bianliang City, each of which has armor. As for the training staff, they are just sumo wrestlers, just to go on stage and entertain the audience, so how can we talk about guilt? ”

"Oh? Are all sumo wrestlers in practice? So why do sumo wrestlers use Di Qing to practice? Who is Di Qing? Is it true that the human skills he trained are just for sumo wrestling? Han Qi asked again.

The right to speak in this court is in the hands of Han Qi.

"Your Majesty, the minister does these things only for commercial profit, and does not do what he thinks. If Han Xianggong had to think that the minister was ill-intentioned, then the minister was full of mouths, and he couldn't say it clearly. Gan Qi said to the emperor on the stage.

Emperor Zhao Shu also spoke: "Han Xiang misunderstood, Gan Qing's livelihood, at the beginning, my family's Runan County Mansion was also involved, it was not a big rebellion, it was just commercial profit. ”

"The Emperor...... Don't talk nonsense, you are the only prince under the knee of the former emperor, and you are also the official family of the current Great Song Dynasty, don't say anything about the palace. Those who have nothing to do with you, as the emperor, should take the heart of the emperor and protect the society. There must be a public opinion on whether it is loyal or treacherous, and we will talk about this matter after Han Xiang finds out. "Empress Dowager Cao obviously hates Gan Qi to the bone, the two brothers of the Cao family, one beheaded, and the other begs. In Empress Dowager Cao's view, it was all thanks to Gan Qi, and in this regard, she and Han Qi had the same idea, and they had to put Gan Qi to death.

Zhao Shu frowned, he became someone else's son, and he couldn't even mention his home?

Han Qi immediately continued: "The old minister thinks that he should temporarily remove Gan Qi from his official position in the Tongzhi Yuan, and then make a decision when the matter is investigated." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

Tang Jie immediately spoke: "The minister thinks this matter is inappropriate!" ”

Wang Anshi also came out: "The minister also thinks that this matter should not be like this, Gan Zhi is a member of the court, and he can't be convicted first because of some things that catch wind and shadows." ”

Empress Dowager Cao waved her hand: "Let's handle it according to Prime Minister Han's words first, if there is a wrong, it is not too late to reinstate the official." ”

"Yes!" Han Qi had already bowed down.

Zhao Shu on the stage stood up directly: "Is there anyone who can listen to me?" ”

"Your Majesty, please speak." Han Qi is also polite and courteous.

"Gan Qi is loyal, and he will definitely not do that transgression, I trust him, and there is no need to investigate." Zhao Shu was a little rigid.

"Emperor, you don't know your heart, you are not born to the emperor, how do you know that no one else covets this big position? How do you know that no one is colluding with Ganchi to usurp the throne? At such a critical juncture, everything should be done carefully to avoid the overthrow of the country. Just do what this palace says. That's it for the time being, retreat from the court. Then came the decree. Empress Dowager Cao had already gotten up and walked away.

That holy decree then arrived, leaving Zhao Shu speechless and slumping down on the dragon chair.

Han Qi had already bowed: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to Your Majesty." ”

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to Your Majesty."

Some people have gone out of the main hall, and some people are still standing on top of the main hall.

Gan Qi also went outside the main hall, seeing Tang Jie shaking his head again and again, and seeing that Wang Anshi was anxious.

Emperor Zhao Shu was even more anxious, and hurriedly said to the eunuchs beside him: "Manager Li, please hurry up and call Gan Qi and let him come to see me." ”

Li Xian nodded, put away the dust, and walked off the stage.
