Zhaodefang, Yangfu.

The study was brightly lit, Yang Lin was dressed in a white background swallow suit, looking at the piles of jewels in the big red lacquered wooden box in front of him, and chuckled: "Zhang Hanlin, why are you so kind to me?" ”

Hanlin bachelor Zhang Shangying owed a debt and said with a smile: "It's just a small courtesy, and please accept it with a smile." ”

Yang Lin is not short of money, but he is still very happy when a figure like Zhang Shangying comes to recognize the door.

The people of the time commented on Zhang Shangying, who was long and majestic, with a posture like a jade, a negative spirit, and a proud vision.

Yang Lin knocked lightly on the table, two guards came in from outside, and carried down the suitcase containing jewelry, Yang Lin raised his hand to invite him to take a seat, and said: "This official does not accept gifts in vain, just say anything about it." ”

Zhang Shangying said with a bitter face: "Shaozai, the lower officials are not having a good time in the court now, Liu Zhengfu Zheng Juzhong is looking for trouble with the lower officials all day long, and he originally wanted to endure it for a while, but recently, after Liu Zhengfu's old puppet climbed Wang Huang, the momentum is flourishing. Shaozai also knows the discord between the lower officials and him, and if he finds the wrong place, the lower officials are afraid that the official position will not be guaranteed. It's better to get out of Beijing as soon as possible and hide quietly. ”

Liu Zhengfu was still a scholar of the Ministry of Industry, Zheng Juzhong, like Zhang Shangying, was a bachelor of Hanlin.

The grievances of these people are nothing more than the affairs of the new party and the old party, originally they all supported Cai Jing as the prime minister, and the relationship between them eased a lot.

But now that Cai Jing is the prime minister, he doesn't take much care of these people who once helped him, Zheng Juzhong and Liu Zhengfu climbed up to Liang Shicheng's eunuch again, and then turned back to rectify Zhang Shangying.

Yang Lin was secretly happy in his heart, Cai Jing's stall was too big, and finally there was someone who couldn't take care of it, and he knew that he had come to join him.

Yang Lin was silent when he heard this, gently turned the jasper ring in his hand, and said slowly: "Wang Hao is very capable, flattering Liang Shicheng, why not force Zhang Hanlin out of Bianliang." ”

Zhang Shangying stood up and bowed, and said, "Please also ask Shaozai to think about the difficulties of the officials, so as not to let the villain succeed." ”

Yang Lin smiled and said, "Zheng Juzhong has no credit to the imperial court, but he is just a favorite of His Majesty who clings to Concubine Zheng and pretends to be a relative. That Concubine Zheng Guifei was born in a poor family, and she had nothing to do with a high-ranking family like Zheng Juzhong, and she was also greedy for the power of the Zheng family, so she pretended to be a relative of this family. This kind of pickled matter can be said to be clear to the entire Kaifeng Mansion, and it is ridiculous to hide it from His Majesty alone.

If Zhang Hanlin is willing to work with his own officials to rectify the treacherous and evil, and to eliminate the dynasty, why is he afraid of Zheng Juzhong. ”

Zhang Shangying was overjoyed, how could he come up with a trip to Beijing, it was just a means to sell miserably.

The officials of the Great Song Dynasty all cut their heads and drilled into Bianliang, who was willing to go to the poor countryside outside to serve.

It is the prosperous Liangzhejiang Road, which is not at the same level as Bianliang.

He was forced by Zheng Juzhong and Liu Zhengfu to have no choice, thinking that the backstage of the two people opposite was Liang Shicheng and Wang Hao, and only Shaozai Yang Lin dared to call out the hidden Liang Shicheng in the court, and he came to Yang's mansion as soon as he gritted his teeth.

After sending Zhang Shangying away, Yang Lin immediately sent someone to the dynasty office and asked him to write a letter to impeach Chen Xian, the secretary of the household department, for creating and spreading rumors, slandering the front-line soldiers, and causing panic in Kaifeng Mansion.

Poor Chen Xianshangshu, people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven, and the New Year is not over and is slandered.

Just as he rolled up his sleeves and was about to wait for the end of the Spring Festival, when he was defending himself in the morning, Yang Lin had already entered the palace with black materials in a hurry.

----

Forbidden, inside the Imperial Garden.

Zhao Ji is painting on a blooming cold plum, and future generations know the elegance of the thin gold body, but they don't know that Zhao Ji's attainments in painting are higher than calligraphy.

Seeing Yang Lin coming in, Zhao Ji didn't move his head and concentrated on painting.

Yang Lin was bored, stood aside and waited, and stood until his feet were sore, and Zhao Ji put down his pen.

"Yang Qing came to the palace, what happened?" Moving his sour wrist, Zhao Ji asked while admiring his paintings.

"Your Majesty, the people of Kaifeng Mansion have been panicked recently, and several rumors have been circulating in the market, and the people of the Western Army are disheartened, and they will collapse without a fight."

Zhao Ji blushed, turned his head and asked, "Is there really such a thing?" ”

Yang Lin said: "Your Majesty, please be relieved, the minister has investigated clearly, and this matter is purely false. It was done on purpose..."

Zhao Ji was taken aback for no reason, especially when he was looked at by the minister in a panic just now, and he was annoyed: "Who is chewing the root of his tongue in Kaifeng Mansion?" Such major events can easily shake the will of the people and must be strictly investigated. ”

Yang Lin looked sad and said: "Alas, at the moment, although there is a Shengming monarch in the Great Song Dynasty, he has no virtue to be worthy of being a courtier of the official family, so I can't wait for it." The matter... It turned out to be the work of the ministers of the same palace, which couldn't help but make us feel guilty as courtiers, and we had no face to see Your Majesty. ”

Thousands of clothes, not sycophants, Zhao Ji listened very usefully, and said with a smile: "Yang Aiqing doesn't need to be humble, I have a good minister like you, just like Han has Chen Ping and Tang De Li Jing, so that I can sleep peacefully in the forbidden." ”

"The minister also has to meet the Holy Lord, and the three lives are fortunate."

A pair of monarchs and ministers praised each other, and Yang Lin continued: "This person is not someone else, but Chen Xian, the head of the household, according to the minister's investigation, this is all Chen Xian's reluctance to see Tong Guan in charge of the deliberate act. He once met with people in Fan Lou in private, and bluntly said, 'Eunuchs in charge of soldiers, such as Si Chen, are not good for the National University, and I should get rid of them.' These are the confessions of the people of Chen Xian's mansion, as well as the confessions of the witnesses in the restaurant, please look at them. ”

Zhao Ji trusted Yang Lin very much, and Chen Xian, who had never agreed to use the money of the household department to build a building, had long been resentful, and said angrily: "Chen Xian is so intentional, his heart can be punished, and someone will pass on the decree, and degrade Chen Xian, the secretary of the household department, as the governor of Ezhou, and he will not delay his immediate trip." ”

Yang Lin played the Northwest War Report again, bluntly saying that the Western Army had formed an alliance with Tubo, and it was only necessary to completely pacify the Western Xia with a two-pronged approach.

Zhao Ji smiled when he heard this, and said: "If you can achieve this great achievement, I will live up to the ambition of my father and brother." ”

"Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the Holy Lord of Heaven and the Emperor should have swept away the Liuhe and swept the Eight Desolations, talking about the Western Xia, the Northern Expedition to Youyan in the coming days, restoring the homeland, Le Ma Yanran, and smashing the Yellow Dragon, so as to be worthy of His Majesty's Sage.

In order to come early on this day, although the ministers are crushed to pieces, they will not give up their deaths. Your Majesty, the minister thought that Zhang Shangying, a scholar of Hanlin, could establish the same and different things, and was called a virtuous, because people looked forward to him, it was just right to be a scholar of this household. ”

"That's right."

"The Western Xia grain, grass, military supplies, and siege equipment have been in disrepair for a long time, so it is better to transfer the Beijing battalion to help it destroy the summer."

"Exactly."

"The military orders are not in order, the people's hearts are not in order, and they are each in their own camps, and the reason why this emperor was defeated in Xingzhou. The minister thought that when Shengtong Guan was the envoy of Xihe Lanhuang and Qinfeng Lu Jingluo to pacify the system, he could lead the military and political power in wartime, in order to achieve the prohibition of orders and prohibitions, and the dispatch was appropriate. ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

Zhao Ji was coaxed into a daze, leaving Yang Lin to have lunch with him in the forbidden period before letting the person out.

Yang Lin worked non-stop, and together with Cai Jing, he dispatched grain and grass and military supplies, and the long-standing Western Army will finally usher in their first batch of food and salary within three years, and the Northwest War is about to break out!

Tong Guan's authority also overwhelmed the border families of the Western Army and became the real king of the northwest.

The Khitans got the fake news and were overjoyed, and they had already sent someone back to Shangjing to report that there would be no Khitans to stir up the situation in this war.

At dusk, a dragon scale cloud intersecting with black and gold in the sky, Yang Lin looked north at the sky, and murmured: "The surname Tong, Lao Tzu has arranged everything for you, just ask you not to drop the fucking chain, and destroy Xixia for me!" ”
