Chapter 208: Encountering Zhang Tang by Chance
The next afternoon,
Gongsun Hong came to the palace with a hurry, looking a lot haggard, and he also carried Lang Zhong with him.
"Prime Minister, look."
Gongsun Hong looked at the guards, and saw that Zhang Tang's carriage had also arrived, and he got off quickly, bringing a few bamboo slips in his hand, and it seemed that he was advising His Majesty about something.
Gongsun Hong was a little dissatisfied with Zhang Tang, except that he gave Liu Che some advice to Liu Che when he was fine, such as preventing his relatives from becoming bigger and stronger, but this person didn't know the rules very well.
Because Prime Minister Sun Hong was extremely busy, and now he had nothing to do with the affairs of the Tingwei Mansion, he didn't ask Zhang Tang either.
And Zhang Tang also went down with the trend, if you don't ask me, I don't know.
The last time Gongsun Hong arranged for Zhang Tang to raise grain and grass, I don't know how it turned out, let alone any other official business, and it didn't go through Gongsun Hong at all, just like Zongzheng Liu Qianyong, who was beheaded by the whole family for colluding with the princes and kings.
"Zhang Tang." Gongsun Hong shouted.
I don't know if Zhang Tang deliberately didn't see it or pretended, anyway, he didn't see Gongsun Hong, after hearing this voice, he first shook for a moment, and then had a feeling of helplessness.
But in the end, he didn't resist the majesty of Gongsun Hong, so he stepped forward and said, "Xia Guan has seen the prime minister!" ”
All the officials of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gongsun Hong was dissatisfied with Zhang Tang: "What is the matter with Your Majesty?" ”
Gongsun Hong, as Zhang Tang's direct boss, has the power to ask about these things, so Zhang Tang really froze: "Cheng, Prime Minister, some small things, small things." ”
"Show it to the old man!" Gongsun Hong stretched out his hand and put on a straight face.
The official level crushed people to death, and Gongsun Hong was also a celebrity in front of Liu Che, Zhang Tang naturally did not dare to resist in this public place, not to mention that this was outside the palace, once it reached Liu Che's ears, he would be miserable.
Zhang Tang reluctantly handed over the bamboo slip in his hand.
Gongsun Hong was immediately angry when he saw it, and Zhang Tang actually bypassed himself and went directly to Liu Che for some things, and he was angry and threw the bamboo slip over unceremoniously and said: "Zhang Tang, yes, go!" ”
Zhang Tang was a little apprehensive, he turned around slowly, his heartbeat had not stopped, and then he walked towards the palace in embarrassment.
Looking at Zhang Tang's figure, Gongsun Hong had an indescribable sense of fear, this person should not be underestimated, whether it is advice or ideas, they are all bad ideas, anyway, one is a scourge.
Originally, he also went to see Liu Che, but now Zhang Tang is also there, just right, so wait for him to see him first.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The chamberlain hurriedly walked to the main hall and reported: "Your Majesty, the prime minister asks to see you." ”
Liu Che had just finished reading Zhang Tang's advice, and he hadn't made any decisions or statements yet, so he announced.
Gongsun Hong walked towards the main hall under the leadership of the chamberlain, glanced at Zhang Tang on the side and said, "The old minister greets Your Majesty." ”
Liu Che attached no less importance to Gongsun Hong than Wei Qing, so he stepped forward and said, "What is the prime minister looking for?" ”
Gongsun Hong glanced at Zhang Tang.
Zhang Tang instantly understood that the things discussed below were definitely not something he could hear, so he arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the minister will retire first." With that, he retreated to the main hall.
Gongsun Hong smiled faintly: "Lord Zhang doesn't need to be nervous, it's just right, the old man has something that Lord Zhang can also listen to." ”
Zhang Tang's forehead was sweaty, and Gongsun Hong seemed to be unable to get off the stage today.
"It's okay, Zhang Tang, just listen to the prime minister first." Liu Che twisted his neck and said.
Gongsun Hong respectfully walked to the hall and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Ou has been demoted for several months, and no one is in charge of the national criminal law. ”
When Zhang Tang heard this, he suddenly didn't know what to do? Does Gongsun Hong know that he overturned Zhang Ou?
Liu Che didn't speak after hearing this, but pondered for a while, he really didn't pay attention to this matter, and he went to study the things in the north in the past few days, so he asked, "Is there a candidate for the prime minister?" ”
"Most of the Jiuqing are old ministers, ministers suggest, and fans." Gongsun Hong knew what Zhang Tang was studying in his heart all day, and the meaning of letting him stay was to let him listen.
Zhang Tang was angry in his heart, full of anger, but he didn't dare to speak.
"Fan?" Liu Che kept flipping in his mind, this person's name is very familiar, but who is it?
Gongsun Hong added: "The Fan Department is the person who assisted Han Anguo and Zhang Ou in establishing the thirteen assassination history departments in the country. ”
Right! Liu Che remembered that back then, this fan department was still a fierce general under Han Anguo, and he was very good in the field of promoting the supervision of the imperial court to monitor the place.
The Department of Assassination History is an important institution for the imperial court to monitor local officials, the most important means to return power to the imperial court, and the forefront of wrenching with local princes.
"Your Majesty, in the past, most of the imperial doctors were promoted to court captains, but the old minister thought that this year could actually be changed, so that some people who are really capable can stand in the foreground." Gongsun Hong added again.
After Gongsun Hong finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Tang again, and told Zhang Tang with his eyes: How is it? Don't you want to bypass the old man in everything? The weight of the old man's speech in front of His Majesty is not bad.
"Zhang Tang, what do you think?" Liu Che asked.
Zhang Tang was nervous, how to say it? Could it be that he wants to seek the position of Doctor Shi? So he could only arch his hand and say: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister, the minister feels that the fan department is still lacking, and there may be other talents." ”
Zhang Tang's meaning is very simple, that is, I hope Liu Che can still remember his name Zhang Tang, you know, before choosing the prime minister, Liu Che took the initiative to remember Zhang Tang's name.
Liu Che looked at Gongsun Hong and suddenly said, "In this way, your Gongsun Hong will be in charge." ”
"Ahh
Liu Che's decision surprised both Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang.
Gongsun Hong hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister is already in his last years, and it may be difficult to take on this great responsibility." ”
Gongsun Hong really didn't want to be a doctor of imperial history, he was really tired, and he sometimes wondered whether he could survive this year was still a problem, so he excused himself again: "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to be compassionate." ”
For Zhang Tang, Liu Che is not without consideration, but someone has to help him to take the position, if Gongsun Hong does not recommend the climbing system today, then Liu Che is really likely to choose Zhang Tang, but unfortunately Gongsun Hong recommended the candidate.
"That's it, you can do it first." Liu Che asked Gongsun Hong to take care of both, which meant that he liked Gongsun Hong really well.
In this way, Gongsun Hong wanted to resign from the burden of the imperial doctor, but in the end he did not shirk it, on the contrary, he compacted it, Zhang Tang wanted to seek the position of the imperial historian, but he had nothing to do.
Walking out of the palace, Gongsun Hong didn't give Zhang Tang a good look: "I still weigh how many taels I have first." ”
Zhang Tang was extremely embarrassed and had a feeling of being insulted.
Since Gongsun Hong became prime minister, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have been in his eyes, and Zhang Tang, who does not understand the rules, is a scourge.
