At first glance, when he heard that Zhang Dian had recommended Shen Kuo, Li Ding immediately turned his attention to Han Gang.

Zhang Dian is going to take Shen Kuo as a start? Did he break his relationship with Han Gang?

But with Han Gang's personality and qualifications, he should not compete with Zhang Dian for the position of prime minister. Since they don't fight, what reason is there for the two to break up?

Shen Kuo was ordered to extinguish the fire in the coal-field before, Shen Kuo had hard work and some credit, but because he only let the fire burn up the coal in the coal-field, and then extinguished it naturally, and demolished hundreds of people's houses to prevent the spread of the fire, causing the people's resentment to boil, and there was some trouble, and some court officials accused him of doing things badly.

Shen Kuo's appointment as Kaifeng Mansion was driven to the shelves, and he was ordered to calm down the crisis, and ordinary officials avoided it. It's just that Shen Kuo was already discriminated against because of his character, and only Han Gang was willing to accept it. Han Gang agreed that he knew Kaifeng, so he didn't dare to refuse, so he had to go on.

This time, Shen Kuo was once again pushed to the cusp of the storm, and Han Gang agreed, didn't this force Shen Kuo to leave Germany?

The ghost will believe that Han Gang will tolerate someone demolishing his platform, and that person should not be Zhang Dian.

However, after hearing Han Gang's reply, Li Ding was suddenly stunned.

The Kaifeng Mansion reviewed it and handed it over to the legal departments for review, which at first glance sounded like Shen Kuo had been sacrificed.

If everything is so according to the normal procedure. After the Kaifeng Mansion approved the verdict, it was reviewed by Dali Temple, and then sent to the Criminal Court for detailed discussion.

The verdict of Kaifeng Mansion has to be passed along the way, and it is impossible to pass it smoothly.

But what about after that?

If the judicial department rejects the judgment of Kaifeng Mansion, it is impossible for Shen Kuo to stop there, and he will inevitably appeal on it. The two sides hold one end, and the next step is either to ask the officials above the two systems to discuss in detail, or to ask the queen mother to deal with it.

If he was standing in the position of Han Gang and Zhang Tun, he would definitely choose to play the Empress Dowager secretly and let the Empress Dowager Xiang directly pardon.

If the judgment is really according to the law, the main members who participated in the rebellion, as well as the men in the immediate family, will inevitably be hanged and severely punished, and there will be a few beheaded. If Cai Qu, Song Yongchen and Shi Deyi were still alive, they would not be able to escape the death penalty of Ling Chi.

In the first two years, Li Feng and Zhao Shiju conspired against each other, and they each beheaded two trick officers. At that time, it wasn't even a conspiracy to rebel, but Zhao Shi had a book of soldiers and a book of wisdom in his house. There is not a single conspiracy in the correspondence. This time, it was a real rebellion, and the severed head should be ten times that of Zhao Shiju's case.

But as long as the Queen Mother is persuaded and the pardon is issued, it doesn't matter what precedent the story is

The Zaifu wanted to let go of the rebellion, and they originally wanted to ask the Queen Mother to surrender the edict. In order to justify the issuance of an edict, the necessary trial procedures are indispensable. Pardon can only be made if the conviction is preceded.

It's a good fit.

Han Gang and Zhang Dian did not give in at all, but just delayed for a while. With the disposal of the traitors, on the other hand, Zeng Bu and Xue Xiang also have standards to follow, and then we will discuss it next, but we can't get rid of the bottom line drawn by the Zaifu.

Li Ding almost understood a little bit of Han Gang and Zhang Dan's calculations, but he knew that it would never be so simple.

The core of everything is still on the Queen Mother.

Lu Jiawen's eyes were cold, staring at Han Gang and Zhang Dian. The two blatantly cooperate with each other, and it is not as simple as delaying it for the time being and succeeding in their schemes.

After defeating the rebels and saving the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven, the Zai Fu are already highly rewarded, and if they are too strong, they will inevitably be regarded as aggressive and arrogant in the eyes of the Queen Mother.

After a rebellion, especially the rebellion of Shi Deyi and Song Yongchen, who relied on their henchmen, the Queen Mother will inevitably be suspicious and extremely persistent in power, which is normal for this person.

Women are already suspicious, the suspicion of the Son of Heaven will only be more serious than that of women, and those who have just been betrayed will inevitably look at the outside world with suspicion.

If someone touches her heart, no matter how deep the previous trust is, it will immediately turn into suspicion.

Lu Jiawen dared to confront Zhu Zaifu with Li Ding, just because he wanted to borrow the psychology of the Queen Mother.

But Han Gang and Zhang Dian have now taken a step back, and if they bite on this side, the object of the Queen Mother's suspicion will be turned around.

Lu Jiawen was even more sure at this time, as long as there were still Zhang Dian and Han Gang, the vacated positions in the two mansions were like the moon in the water, which seemed to be within reach, but they couldn't catch it.

Is it just that you can't admit defeat?

Lu Jiawen gritted his teeth tightly.

Wang Anshi, Han Jiang, Zhang Qi, and Su Song, these four are not as young as Han Gang and Zhang Dan, and their energy has long been low. After a long time, the affairs of the court will inevitably gradually fall into the hands of Han Gang and Zhang Tun.

If he can enter the two mansions in the near future, he can also compete with Zhang Dian and Han Gang for the government. But if we can't fill those vacancies in time, when the situation in the court is stable, with the ability of Zhang Dian and Han Gang, we should be able to smoothly handle the major national affairs in both the military and political aspects, so that the whole court - the most important thing is the queen mother - feel that there is no need to make up for the members of the two governments.

When the time comes, it will not be so easy to squeeze in again. Even if the Queen Mother intends to expand the two mansions and contain Zhang Dian and Han Gang, she will have to compete with a major minister from the outside, where is the opportunity now!?

There are not a few important ministers who grit their teeth like Li Ding and Lu Jiawen, and they are all qualified to be among the two governments. Before or after, they asked themselves that they had seen through the tricks of Han Gang and Zhang Tun.

However, at this time, Su Song was as puzzled as Wang Anshi in his heart.

It is by no means tacit understanding and cooperation, Su Song is extremely familiar with Han Gang's character, he and Zhang Dian have spoken one after another, but there is a slight taste of confrontation.

In terms of seniority and rank, Han Gang will not compete with Zhang Dian for the position of prime minister. It's a little too early for the two to get into a disagreement.

Could it be that something is wrong?

Since Han Gang opened his mouth to support Kaifeng Mansion as the chief judge, the palace was silent for a while, and everyone was speculating about Han Gang's intentions.

Han Gang saw everyone's expressions change from suspicious to sudden, as if they had already understood what he and Zhang Dian were thinking.

Can you really figure it out?

Han Gang secretly sneered, the only people who really understood the other party's intentions were himself and Zhang Dian, who let his own family reveal his plans to Zhang Dian?

After experiencing a rebellion, what kind of changes will occur in the Queen Mother's heart, Han Gang is very curious to know Lu Dao.

However, no matter how things develop, his return to the position of the two mansions has become a foregone conclusion, and his influence on the court will return to the previous level, and most of them will be exceeded.

When the time comes, whether to pry the cornerstone of imperial power into the emphasis, or to set up a law in the palace now, this is just a difference in the urgency of the means.

I don't know how many people's eager eyes can be attracted by the remaining one or two vacancies in the two mansions.

Lu Jia asked again and again, his eyes became firm, he stole his uncle's grandfather's draft of the cantata, went to Wang Anshi, and was called a thief, it has been twelve years, and the two culprits who drove him out of the house are dying, and he has no second twelve years to delay.

But when he was about to stand up, he saw a chamberlain hurrying into the temple.

Chong the Empress Dowager saluted, and the attendant shouted congratulations: "Cai Qu's sons, Cai Shuo, Cai Wei and the following seventeen people, and Cai Jing from the party, have all been arrested." Among them, Cai Wei originally escaped, but he was captured at the same time by Wang Hou and Cai Jing for the Kaifeng Mansion and the Xishang Pavilion Gate, and they were sent to Kaifeng Mansion. ”

'Captured? ’

'How did you get to Kaifeng Mansion?' ’

directly cut the account, and even dragged it to Kaifeng Mansion.

Even if Wang Hou saw Cai Jing and Cai Wei, without saying a word, and cut off the heads of the two, Han Gang would still be able to repay him for a superior merit that would leave no trouble.

It's really a disadvantage.

Han Gang shook his head secretly, has Wang Hou been pampered in Longxi for too long, watching people gamble on football and horses every day, and now he has even forgotten his old business of killing people and setting fires? In other words, back then, such a good opportunity was let go in front of him, and without others saying, Wang Shao would use the family method to teach his son a lesson when he turned around.

However, Han Gang also had no right to let Wang Hou go to the soup for himself.

What Wang Sunsin and Li Xin will definitely do, Wang Hou will not. That's the difference.

Fortunately, there is a chapter of Biguang.

Han Gang's face was strange.

Zhang Biguang showed his face this time.

He first advocated driving the second king out of the palace, and then was driven out of the capital by the angry Emperor Gao. This torture is his capital. In terms of mentality, Zhang Piguang is a speculative and risky character.

The difference with Cai Qu is that one first took good fortune and then suffered a disaster, while the other responded to Mencius's hard work and strained his muscles and bones - this time the 'heaven' will descend on him.

"Han Qing, what should Cai Jing do with this."

asked the Queen Mother Han Gang, when Cai Jing and Han Gang were arguing, she was one of the participants.

"That's Shen Kuo's business." Han Gang simply pushed it to the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.

"If Cai Jing is repentant, he will not be blamed for the past. If not, it should not be forgiven by the law of the land. ”

The second half of Han Gang's sentence is the point.

In front of the Queen Mother, he couldn't say that Cai Jing should be reincarnated as soon as possible, but Han Gang's attitude was very clear - not to be spared.

He would not let Shen Kuo judge a result of 'repentance' no matter what.

And all the people who can't enter Kaifeng Mansion will be pardoned because of the oath of the Zaifu, and there must be one or two exceptions to verify the strictness of the national law.

Although there were enough loopholes in the original oath, it actually couldn't restrain Han Gang at all. Even if Shen Kuo betrayed again, it would have no effect on Han Gang.

And that Cai Jing, who doesn't even need to be interrogated, is easy to go to prison and report his death.

It's not a Taiwan prison, and the food and accommodation of the prisoners are a few points better than those in the capital.

This is the government prison, after the god of Gaotao, it is dark. Who would dare to stay in it longer?

The scoundrels in the market, whenever they are caught in prison, the first thing they do is to ask someone to quickly notify their families, take the money as soon as possible to redeem themselves, and they dare not stay for half a day. Which isn't a fart? There is no need to be punished, and they will stay for three or five days, and there are not one or two people who die of illness after leaving the city.

In particular, the deepest cells were used to kill prisoners. You don't have to see blood, you don't have to go into battle in person, you don't have to go into battle in person, you leave it for a few days, and you only have one breath left when you come out.
