More than five years have passed since the Battle of Zhennan City, and the war in the grassland desert has ended.

During this period of forbidden time in Jiankang City in Southern Xia, it was also quiet.

The official family's imperial body is not as good as day by day, and there are no new tricks, and insiders even know that during this time, in addition to the Xiangyang Wang Gantang entering the Da Nei several times, even a few Zaifu in front of the hall can rarely enter the saint a few times. Jia Ru is still as graceful as ever. In summer, he gave a decoction to relieve the heat, and in winter, he sent mink qiu to keep out the cold.

Of course, Jia Ru did not accept it for granted every time, and the above table said that the official family led the ministers with the countrymen, and the ministers dared not to bow and do their best, and the energy was still good, enough to lead the government hall to solve the worries for His Majesty, if the energy was really low, he would return to his hometown as a skeleton, and he would not dare to delay state affairs. Between the monarchs and ministers, there is a harmonious appearance.

Which queen in the palace rarely shows her head these times, and mostly accompanies the official family in the palace.

Regarding Jia Ru's actions in the phase, there is no gossip. As if this reality has been accepted.

Since the supreme center of power is so peaceful, the attention of the Lin'an officialdom has shifted to other places. The Privy Council is still vacant, I don't know who is rising, and now the prime minister and the officials of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War, the four Zaifu do sort out this court in an orderly manner, but there are still people who can get a piece of the pie.

In the past, most of this position was sat by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but now the identity of King Chong'an, who is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, is sensitive, and the official family has never raised King Chong'an to the throne. It stands to reason that there is generally a royal family involved in the political affairs hall, and there are not many people who have the opportunity to sit in this position, but in recent years, there have been problems in the official family and the imperial body. Wudang sent Zhang Zhenren to be invited to the palace many times, but the imperial heir has not yet had an accurate statement. It caused the entire court to be worried.

There are also some small things that are also attracting people's attention.

The ordinary people who were implicated when Shi Mijian went to the throne were not ruthless in the downfall of Prime Minister Jia Cheng but offended his party ruthlessly, and now they can't get stuck, and some of them are still waiting to see if this cold stove can burn or not, Prime Minister Jia and his party are now in power, and it is inevitable that there will be some retaliatory actions. The entanglement is also quite lively.

The little prince of the Gan family, who can often enter the palace to face the saint, has become the hope of the entire Song Dynasty officialdom.

Unlike Jia Ru, no official was turned away, and all the visiting officials were invited into the mansion for tea, and there were as many as five or six people who received the visitors, including several other elders of the Gan family. After a detailed discussion, he was mostly retained for dinner, but most of the things he asked for were rejected, or the owner was still young, or Gan Tang was not at home and waited for him to come back and then report the matter to him, and so on.

For more than a year, in addition to entering the palace from time to time to accompany the emperor and the football headquarters, Gan Tang mostly stayed in the Huangzhuang outside the city.

All kinds of piles were added together, and when the power center of Great Xia was blocked, it did not make Jiankang Jingmen less to talk about.

In addition to these political disputes, as a great Xia Shi doctor, the most important thing is life. At present, when it is autumn, the north wind is blowing strongly, and this year's grain prices seem to have dropped by a few percent.

Since the gangsters from Jiangbei were sent to the south in batches three years ago, the prices of rice, spices, yellow wax, betel nut, coconut heart, tortoiseshell, and pearls in Jiankang have dropped again and again.

It is rumored in the market that the little prince of the Gan family invented a big waterwheel for alchemy, and the same manpower withdrew ten times and a hundred times. Most people in the world will be skeptical, alchemy has always been a process of absenteeism hammering gold-containing stones with a hammer, and so on? Everyone knows that the waterwheel is used for irrigation on dry land, and it is used for alchemy, so much so that you have never heard of it.

After the Shangyuan Festival two years ago, the Jiangnan Xie family united dozens of large families to receive it in Jiangbei

Looking at the hooligans, taking advantage of the civil war of the Yan people, they had no time to look south.

There were 50,000 or 60,000 people who emigrated at one time, and these hooligans did not stay in the south of the Yangtze River for long, and all of them were taken to Luzon by more than 1,000 warships of the Yangtze River Naval Division. I heard that the king of Xiangyang had discovered another large gold mine in Luzon. It seems that the Gan family did not mine it themselves this time, but gave it to the Jiangnan family headed by the Xie family, and for a while, the entire powerful family in Jiangnan went to Jiangbei to recruit hooligans or transfer people in Jiangnan to organize teams to go to Nanyang.

It's just that you can't find a mine, and with the fertile land of Nanyang, you can make some precious melons, fruits, and spices back, and look at so many displaced people being sent to Nanyang, and the price of grain may drop next year, which is better than digging in the fields again.

September 9, when the hairy crabs in Yangcheng Lake in the south of the Yangtze River are plump, a glass of rice wine is said to have the effect of driving away ghosts and suppressing demons.

At three o'clock, Emperor Suzong held a banquet in the Huangji Hall to accompany the hundred eighty-year-old people selected by the people to have the imperial meal, and then held a large court meeting at the same time. Although the court will be arranged after the banquet of 100 long-lived old people, the ministers should be present at the moment of the day, and those who are late and undressed will be expelled by the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Historical Tower.

Gan Tangyin was called by his family at all times, dressed up in a hurry, simply ate a snack, took a four-wheeled car invented by himself, and under the traction of three donkeys, he went to the Xi'an Gate of the imperial city, walked in, and went to the Wenhua Palace.

Those who are qualified to go to the Wenhua Hall are the relatives of the emperor and the emperor of the court, and other officials can only wait in the square outside the main hall.

Gan Tang is ranked first on the right, only after King Fu and before King Chong'an. There are more than 1,000 officials who are qualified to participate in the court meeting, and although the Imperial Pole Hall is a large hall specially prepared for the imperial meeting, a third of so many people still have to stand outside the main hall and accept the affection of the north wind. And most of the rookie officials below the fifth grade looked at those Zhu Zi with jealous eyes.

Kam Tong is located on the right side of the dragon chair, and there are nine seats in this area, with three rows in front and back, three people in each row, and a few in front of each person.

The bar faces the emperor, almost level with the emperor, but nine steps lower. People in this position have no say in the court meeting, and can only speak when the emperor asks them. In the summer, only those with the titles of prince, prince, earl, and prince are eligible to sit here.

If someone has both these fourth-class titles and leads the court, they will stand at the bottom like other ministers to facilitate the play, such as the king of Chong'an, who received the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and the uncle Jia Ru, whose title is the prime minister of Lu'an. There is a curtain between Gantang and the ministers, separating the 20 or so people who have seats on the left and right from other ministers, who are equivalent to advisers and generally do not participate in court politics.

By the time of the Ming Dynasty, except for the emperor, everyone else's seats were canceled, and they could only stand below.

Emperor Suzong sat on a high dragon chair, and behind him stood Wang Chun, the eunuch of the seal, and Gao Feng, the chief of the inner house.

After the procedure was completed, Lu Daozhi, the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, seized this opportunity and handed over a jade butterfly to the great eunuch Gao Feng and said: "This is the inventory report of the prison army to go to various places to investigate military funds under the order of His Majesty, please take a look at it!" ”

Emperor Su Zong had obviously forgotten about this matter, he was stunned for a moment before he remembered, and then he slowly picked up the report, he didn't rush to read the report: "I hope this report will not affect my mood today!" ”

Lu Daozhi's face twitched, and the tone of the Son of Heaven seemed to be a little unconvinced of this report, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "This report is based on a large amount of detailed data, and the minister can guarantee that it is absolutely true." ”

"It seems that the results of the monitoring are not very good!"

Emperor Suzong opened the report and looked at it slowly, its face gradually became gloomy, and his eyes flashed with anger

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

War and the next war of the Yan people? ”

Lu Daozhi knelt down and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Zhou Xiucheng is corrupt and perverts the law, indulges in evil and dereliction of duty, and commits a serious crime, and it will be handed over to the Yushitai for thorough investigation and severe punishment!" ”

Fan Zhu hurriedly went out of class and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, during the crime of Zhou Xiucheng, the ministers have been aware of it and are preparing to obtain evidence so that they can be questioned for the crime, but the officials sent by the Yushitai have no experience, which caused Zhou Xiucheng to abscond. ”

"You ---!"; Lu Daozhi's face was flushed, and he couldn't speak.

Chen Yizhong, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, since the war preparation materials have been corrupted by moths, and the Northern Expedition played by King Chong'an and Prime Minister Wang Cheng is not feasible, please ask Your Majesty to reject the above article." ”

"No." Wang Mingzhi hurriedly got out of class and knelt down and said: "The Northern Expedition is urgent, now that the Yan Civil War has just ended, it is its weakest time, and now is the best time to recover the lost territory, how can it affect the century-old plan because of a corrupt official." If you don't take this opportunity to base the Yan people north of the Yellow River, and when the Yan people have eased up this time, they will invade the south again, and Daxia still wants to defend the Yangtze River forever? ”

For a while, the ministers of the three parties of the imperial court came out to quarrel, and the hall became a pot of porridge in a moment.

After everyone argued for a few grams, Emperor Suzong looked coldly at the ministers below and said, "I'm a little tired, all the ministers don't argue about this matter anymore, and they all step down!" ”

Emperor Suzong thought that the ministers would not have a good result for a while and a half, so he turned his head to ask the opinions of several meritorious people, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Gan Tang secretly eating snacks on the table, and the food on the table was just an ornament to show the royal respect for the meritorious people.

Gan Tang was actually eating deliciously, and the other meritorious people nearby saw the official family looking over here, and they all held back a smile, looking at Gan Tang in unison, thinking that in the end, it was a teenager, and they would forget all about the instructions of the officials of the Ministry of Rites at this time.

Emperor Suzong's anger was diluted a lot by Yue Kun's behavior, and asked, "King Xiangyang, what do you think about this matter?" After speaking, he looked at Gan Tang with a teasing eye.

Gan Tang was stunned for a moment, hurriedly stood up, came to the front of the royal gate and arched his hand: "I'm here to listen, I won't express my opinion, everyone is good, the idea is very good, please continue!" ”

"Haha--" Emperor Suzong laughed and said, "I'm a little tired, let's wait for the next dynasty and the future ministers to discuss this matter!" Take a slip and present it. Make a decision again. ”

The ministers were helpless, so they had to bow their heads one after another, and said in unison: "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

"King Xiangyang entered the palace to accompany me." After Emperor Suzong finished speaking, he stood up with the support of Wang Chun and Gao Feng, turned around and left, and some guards shouted: "Retreat from the dynasty, Your Majesty will return to the palace!" ”

Fan Zhu glared at Lu Xiufu viciously, and quickly followed Jia Ru, who had left, Lu Daozhi sighed secretly, the official attitude was ambiguous, and he didn't know whether the result was good or bad.

After Emperor Suzong walked into the hall, he suddenly stopped, turned back and asked Gan Tang, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" In the future, don't play with those vain heads, if you have any ideas, you are an eleven or twelve-year-old child, even if you say that they are disloyal and listen to it, can the ministers still have opinions on you? You just said that you don't express your opinion, that is, you have a good opinion, and it is inconvenient to say it on that occasion, I guess right? ”

Gan Tang lowered his head in embarrassment and said: "Grandpa Huang has worked hard for a few hours in the morning, and hundreds of people are arguing and arguing, and it is impossible to have any results. After the imperial grandfather returned to the palace to rest and had lunch, he could raise his spirits, and he could recruit Wang Mingzhi and Lu Daozhi into the palace to deal with it alone, and the imperial grandfather might be able to find the right way. ”

"Well, Wang Chun, recruit Wang Mingzhi, Lu Daozhi Shen Shi entered the Taiyi Hall of the Shangqing Palace. Gan Tang went to accompany the queen first, and then came over to listen. ”
