Chapter 258: Indirect Influence

Under such a premise, when the Privy Council's signature in charge of the iron piece entered the main hall with the test results that were easy to obtain, it was looked at by dozens of people.

The Privy Council signed the same book, in the Privy Council, belongs to the middle and high-level officials, he is not as good as the Privy Envoy and the Privy Vice-Envoy, that is the real Governor's Political Affairs, but except for a few Privy Councillors, most of the Privy Councillors and Privy Vice-Envoys need to concurrently serve in other positions, such as Han Qi, for example, Cao Di, they are all serving outside, and the Privy Vice-Envoy is just a title.

Only many officials of the real Privy Council will deal with the daily affairs of the Privy Council, and the name of the same sign, which sounds unfamiliar to ordinary people, is very high in the Privy Council, even if it is placed above the court, it is also regarded as a high-ranking official of the third grade.

There have been many times in the court, and even because of the report, they talked eloquently in the court, but it was the first time that they had such a burning eye, and the level of these people was still very high.

Because of the fermentation of the iron matter, all the privy envoys and deputy privy envoys who are currently in Tokyo have arrived at the Privy Council, and even those who are ready to return to their hometowns and are 75 years old have come, which shows the excitement of it.

In addition to the Privy Council, including the three envoys Ye Qingchen, two of them came in by chance to participate in political affairs, they didn't know whether they came over intentionally or unintentionally, but their arrival put down a boulder in Jia Chaochang's heart, a simple transaction that should have been handled by the Privy Council, but it became a major event in the court.

It can be said that in the entire court, the heads of the East Mansion are all there, and even there are two in the West Mansion, plus one of the three envoys, except for Zhang Dexiang, who did not come, it is enough to hold a central meeting.

The heart is a little chaotic, but it is still stable, and there is a problem at this time, that is, the impression score has been greatly reduced, these people are the current Zaifu, and there may be one of them who will become the first assistant in the future.

Sanpin, above the current court, is already a very high official position, but who doesn't want to go further, Sanpin goes further, and he will definitely enter the center and become a governor of political affairs, so this group of people in front of him is very important.

In fact, he guessed very right, sitting on the court, in addition to Jia Chaochang, the head of the West Mansion, there are at least four future heads of the West Mansion, including two first assistants, it can be said that the court in the next 15 years is under the control of those here.

Trying to maintain a balance, he sent such a much-anticipated report to Jia Chaochang's desk, and after putting it down, he breathed a sigh of relief and bowed down.

Everyone stared at this document, and when Jia Chaochang got this document in his hand, his heart was put down, the situation was no longer under his control, so there was no point in dwelling on 120,000 yuan.

Jia Chaochang has always been a smart person, he knows very well that when it is impossible to do something, he can't grasp it, now that he has let it go, his mind is calm, looking at this document, there is no anger and apprehension like before, instead he is curious, what effect will be achieved by such a replacement of iron material.

As a privy envoy, Jia Chaochang is qualified to be the first to read this document, and everyone, including the third envoy Ye Qingchen, must also read it after Jia Chaochang has read it.

In the Privy Council, the test of documents has become the focus, and outside the Privy Council, because of the fluctuations caused by this matter, it is far from calm.

The huge fluctuations caused by this matter attracted two-thirds of the entire court to participate in political affairs, such a big thing, of course Renzong knew, if he didn't even know this, Renzong wouldn't want to sit on the throne.

Renzong's attention is different from Ye Qingchen's, although he heard that this is reduced by a few million, he doesn't care too much, it's not that Renzong doesn't care about such a few million, let alone millions, hundreds of thousands, it is enough to move Renzong.

Among the many emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty, only Renzong was more sad, and Renzong's reign time was the first in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Whether it is the ability to govern or the ability to slaughter and fu, the Renzong Dynasty surpassed other Northern Song Dynasty stages, but the money was used less and less, and the deficit became bigger and bigger.

On the one hand, the Renzong Dynasty was the Northern Song Dynasty with more wars, the northwest border troubles, and a large amount of money was contained, and at the same time, starting from Renzong, natural disasters began to become bigger, just Kaifeng City encountered several floods, floods and droughts and locust plagues, and they abounded.

It is also thanks to the outstanding ability of Renzong, coupled with the assistance of a group of slaughterers, although there are twists and turns, there is no big thing, and it has passed smoothly, but it has not left any foundation for future generations, and the Northern Song Dynasty has weakened from here.

Renzong is not extravagant, even the supply of the royal family is difficult to guarantee, even if it is for his daily use, he saves and saves, and sometimes a little bit of money is subsidized to the government, not to mention millions, hundreds of thousands, even if it is one or two thousand, he sees it in his eyes.

The reason why I didn't care, similar unreliable things, there will be several times a year, some ordinary officials, or simply small landlords, in order to grandstand and attract the attention of Renzong, often followed by this title into the body, at the beginning, Renzong still paid attention to one or two, but slowly, with too many things, too outrageous, he no longer cared.

Especially when I heard that Ye Qingchen also went, he just smiled slightly, and then he didn't care, Ye Qingchen went, what is the difference with his attention, if this matter is true, then Ye Qingchen pays attention, and he will be able to complete this thing, the profit of the three divisions is the profit of the entire court, if this matter is fake, then, Ye Qingchen will be enough to deal with it.

Renzong's more headache, in fact, is now more and more in the eyes of the northwest issue, in the Qingli peace talks are about to be signed, after about 3 years of peace talks, the two sides on the specific terms, a perfect and detailed agreement, now it is nearing the end, the many twists and turns in the middle, finally resolved, but the Northern Song Dynasty's expenditure has increased a lot.

If it's just this, it's acceptable, Ye Qingchen's ability, plus a little saving in all aspects, it's still okay to pay reluctantly, and the entire court thinks that as long as the contract is signed, at least, when you can take a breath in a short time, things will happen again.

At this stall, there was a twist and turn, and there was another disaster in Shaanxi.

Simple disasters, this is no problem, the Northern Song Dynasty started from Renzong's diligent administration, and there were no small disasters that year, and some of them have become more and more intense in recent years, but the mature disaster prevention and mitigation strategy of the Northern Song Dynasty still made these disasters smoothly excessive.

This time is different, it is in Shaanxi, Shaanxi is no longer the place where the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty were opened, thousands of years of farming, coupled with climate changes, so that Shaanxi has been unable to carry so many people, the vast loess plateau and various disasters, so that the already diligent Guanzhong, even harder.

After the establishment of the Western Xia country, it became the front line, and Han Qi went to the head of the Shaanxi Fourth Road this time, as well as the position held by Xia Zhu before, a key role is to prevent Western Xia.

Isn't it fatal to have a problem in this core area? How sensitive Xixia was, after discovering this problem, he immediately opened his mouth.

In the past 3 years, this contract has not been signed, because of the repeated times of the Western Xia, it seems to have grasped the lifeblood of the Northern Song Dynasty, and repeatedly took this condition to threaten the Northern Song Dynasty.

This has made the center tireless before, and now, with this real loophole, it is not yet grasping.

This greedy country without any ability to abide by the agreement, many times, Renzong thought that whether or not to negotiate peace with him was a waste of time.

Perhaps, after getting the benefits of the peace talks, after a few days of pause, maybe it will come up again, this is not impossible, with the Song State, with the Liao State, and the Western Xia once signed something, but there are few that have insisted for a few years, almost all of them have been overthrown by them.

But I have to talk about it, the Northern Song Dynasty can no longer support such a three-year two-headed use of troops, mainly peace talks, supplemented by military suppression, which is also the previous practice for the Liao State.

Then Shaanxi has to go to a person, Renzong still had a headache before, how to choose a candidate in Shaanxi, Xia Zhu is the best candidate, but after several failures and accidents, Xia Zhu's reputation has deteriorated, even if Renzong's insistence cannot force him to pass.

At this juncture, Han Qi appeared, Han Qi was very sensible, and after making great contributions to the Baozhou Mutiny, he did not ask to return to the center, but instead asked to go to Shaanxi.

Renzong recognized Han Qi's ability very much, and also believed that under the current situation, Han Qi was the most suitable.

Originally, Fan Zhongyan's change went to the edge of uncontrollability, and for Fan Zhongyan, Renzong was easy to deal with, and it was okay to delegate it directly, but it was not easy to deal with other followers.

During the reign of Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was the most glorious era of the Northern Song Dynasty and the heyday of the literary world, which not only gave birth to many Song poet talents, but also gave birth to outstanding Zaifu.

In this era, there are countless slaughterers, but I have to say that now, when some old people have retreated, the remaining capable ones are all concentrated by Fan Zhongyan's side.

This has to be said to be a sad thing, now in the end the capital is Zhang Dexiang, and the privy envoy is Jia Chaochang, these two are also above the level, but as the leader of the government, he is really inconspicuous among the many governors of Renzong, not as good as Lu Yijian and the like before, and not as good as Pang Ji and others later.

Wait a few years, Renzong sighed, now Zhang Dexiang and Jia Chaochang are still using it, the reserve force has not yet grown, the most important thing is to eliminate the influence of Fan Zhongyan, this is not something that can be done in a short period of time, perhaps, agreeing to the powerless requirements of the Xixia people will become the only choice.

Zhao Xinxin's approach, not only involved in the supply of iron in the Privy Council, but also indirectly involved in the government affairs, the Qingli peace talks began to change to another aspect, in a short time, the signing was completed, and the entire Northern Song Dynasty, this era, the toughest one of the slaughter, came to Shaanxi, in history he was only briefly in Jingxi Road, then turned to Hebei, this life, destined to be different.
