The transfer from the Zhongshu Sheren to the Tired Marquis Mansion almost meant that he would quit the court and become a marginal official, and the low official position required by Zhao Ruosu surprised the emperor very much. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Ruosu explained: "Even in the court, it is not a secret, Weichen must be relieved of his official position before he can be open and honest with His Majesty, although the government is also a court official, but it is subordinate to the Zongzheng Mansion, half of the ministers, half of the foreign ministers, there is no need to abide by so many rules." ”

Han Ruzi really didn't feel the need to be so troublesome, but he respected Zhao Ruosu and said with a smile: "Okay, it's just...... I'll talk about that later, and I'll get you here as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Ruosu arched his hand and said: "The Zhongshu Sheren and the Hou Mansion are not prominent positions, and there is no need for Your Majesty to transfer them personally, and the relevant official documents will not even be sent to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will wait for a while, and Rong Weichen will adjust it himself." ”

"Wait for the good news." Han Ruzi felt more and more that this Zhao Ruosu was a strange person, but he hid it deeply, and he might really be the helper he needed the most.

Zhao Ruosu retired, and Han Ruzi turned his mind to finding relatives, called the king of the East China Sea, and asked him to help prepare a letter to ask Zongzheng Mansion about the situation of the two marquis of the Wu family.

"The Wu family is not even a relative, it is true that he is not qualified to retain the title, His Majesty is magnanimous and has never asked, and the Wu family is really thick-skinned, and after so long, he did not take the initiative to ask for instructions." The king of the East China Sea quickly finished writing, "Actually, Your Majesty doesn't need to be so formal, but instead settles down, it is better to find someone to blow the wind to the Wu family and ensure that they take the initiative to give way." ”

Han Ruzi shook his head, it was a trivial matter to recover the title of the Wu family, he wanted to convey his intentions to the prime minister, it seemed that even the king of the East China Sea did not understand the doorway very well.

The king of the East China Sea had no feelings for the Wu family, and when he saw the emperor shaking his head, he naturally wouldn't meddle in things, so the letter of inquiry was sent out.

Zongzhengfu replied quickly, and it was sent to the Qinzheng Palace the next morning, and Prime Minister Shen Mingzhi specially selected it and presented it to the emperor, without saying a word.

Han Ruzi personally wrote down the reply, to the effect that now the throne is flooded, the meritorious get a good fortune, and the meritorious live for a long time, which makes the heroes of the world cold, such as the Wu family, the disciples who are attached to the Ji, in vain called the princes, there is no benefit to the country, I am very worried, and I order Yousi to cut his position as soon as possible, from now on, we must be cautious when sealing the marquis, and do not make similar mistakes again.

The Wu family had no power, but now it was even more completely lost, and no one was willing to speak for them, Shen Mingzhi received the reply letter, read it and passed it to other ministers, and included it in the pending matters.

Everything was calm, and there was no half-sentence of argument in the palace of diligence.

Han Ruzi knew that Shen Mingzhi and the others had already understood his intentions.

Monarchs and ministers should be of one heart and one mind, but they can only communicate by euphemistic and subtle means, Han Ruzi both feels incredible, but also feels that it should be, monarchs and ministers are the same, but the balance between the similarities and differences is extremely difficult to grasp, even Yang Feng can't tell, can only recommend others to do it for him.

Han Ruzi has high hopes for Zhao Ruosu, and as for the official position, he will be able to rise again sooner or later.

In the afternoon of this day, it was another Zhongshu scholar who came to the Tihou Mansion to deliver the concerto, who was equally cautious, put down the concerto, bowed and withdrew, and Han Ruzi did not show anything abnormal.

But then he waited for a few days, Zhao Ruosu was like missing, there was no figure, there was no news, the emperor had the right to inquire about the transfer of all officials, but Han Ruzi held back, not wanting the minister to notice his urgency and attention.

Shangshu Yuan Jiuding of the Ministry of Rites had already gone out to the East China Sea Kingdom to check the truth, and Han Ruzi sent two eunuchs to accompany him, one was Zhang Youcai, the emperor's most trusted person, and the other was Jing Yao, who had been pardoned for a short time, and the emperor wanted to try how much of his ability to gather intelligence was left.

Empress Dowager Cining has only one impression of what happened when she was a child, that is, some people call her "little sister", and Zhang Youcai's duty is to find out if there is such a person.

This kind of thing can't be rushed, and it will take at least twenty or thirty days to get the result, and after Han Ruzi made the arrangements, he began to concentrate on dealing with the affairs of Yun Mengze and the East China Sea.

The cold winter is coming, there is no new progress on both sides, the East China Sea is still building ships, and the Yunmengze stronghold has only been built, Yang Feng has recruited a lot of people from the rivers and lakes, and there have been several conflicts with the bandits in Zezhong, but the scale is too small, Yang Feng did not elaborate in the official document, and when Cui Teng sent the letter back, he might be able to say more.

Yunmeng Zewen has Zhuo Ruhe, Wu has Shao Kejian, and Yang Feng is secretly controlled, Han Ruzi is not very worried, but there is no general in the East China Sea for a long time, which makes him feel at ease.

All the coastal counties recommended a different number of generals according to the regulations, and the military department first conducted a round of screening, and more than 30 qualified people were rushing to the capital one after another, and the emperor personally selected them.

Outside the Saiwai was relatively calm, to Deng Cui's sneak attack, the Xiongnu sent people to protest, but did not retaliate, but fled before the arrival of winter, Chai Yue dismissed most of the Chu army, leaving only a few garrisons in Mayi City and Broken Iron City, he established a shogunate in Jincheng, and Fang Daye was sent to Liaodong, nominally to supervise the repair of the old city, in fact, to survey the terrain, preparing to launch an attack on the Buyeo State in the summer early next year.

Great Chu must punish the Buyeo State and eradicate a threat from Liaodong.

The Buyeo State has sent several envoys to confess their sins and beg to surrender, and the imperial court has received them normally, but they are not allowed to see the emperor.

Deng Cui and Zhang Yin on the Western Regions side had the least news, they first wanted to stabilize the countries in the Western Regions, unify their forces, and then go to build cities outside Kunlun Mountain.

Da Chu is like a chessboard, Han Ruzi is a chess player, holding chess pieces, putting one in the east and one in the west, some are battlegrounds, some are long-term plans, there is more than one opponent, but he is not afraid at all, but he is excited about it.

Of course, internal and external troubles are not a good thing, but Han Ruzi is fascinated by the process of solving problems, and can deeply feel what the real imperial power is more than ever, although the imperial court is running slowly, but as long as it is operated properly, the emperor's will and orders can always be implemented thousands of miles away.

In all corners of the world, there are people everywhere who work for the emperor, Han Ruzi only hates a little, the news comes too slowly, and it often takes ten days and a half months to reach his desk, and when he replies to the letter, the matter over there is already over, and the emperor does not need to make an idea.

This is also one of the important reasons why Han Ruzi is willing to reconcile with the prime minister and court officials, the farther away he is, the more out of shape his power becomes, and he must rely on the rules and practices passed down by the ministers over the years to ensure that the imperial power will not be forgotten.

Ten days later, there was still no movement on Zhao Ruosu's side, and an accident occurred that had long been forgotten by the emperor.

The unexpected news was brought by Kim Chun-chung.

Jin Chunzhong did not want to be a Huns, he would rather have no official and no lord, and he would have to return to Beijing with the emperor, because he had not made any contributions to the Great Chu, so he was arranged in the Tihou Mansion and stood by with Chao Whale and others.

Han Ruzi was not in a hurry to appoint this person, and Jin Chunzhong did not feel wronged, so he honestly stayed in the mansion and waited for the opportunity, but he could always see the emperor every few days, which was a privilege.

Jin Chunzhong usually has nothing to do, if the emperor is too busy, he doesn't even speak, and leaves after a while, but today he has been staying.

Han Ruzi finally noticed Jin Chunzhong's abnormality, looked up and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"A little thing, Your Majesty."

"Wait a minute." Han Ruzi read a copy of the strategy in his hand, this is a pirate suppression strategy written by a military general of Nanyue County, which is clear and unique.

"Alright." Han Ruzi raised his head again, drew a circle on the paper with a pen, and memorized the name of the military commander in his heart, planning to make a decision after meeting him.

Jin Chunzhong took two steps forward, "Weichen risked his life to make a statement, and dared to ask His Majesty for forgiveness." ”

Han Ruzi said with a smile: "If you dare to 'risk death', don't be afraid of being convicted, just say it." ”

Jin Chunzhong's face was slightly red, and he raised his head and asked, "Is Your Majesty going to get rid of the Wu family?" ”

Han Ruzi was stunned, "Brother Wu Xiu? ”

"Yes."

"How so? They occupy the vacant throne, in fact, they have no power or power, and they have no foundation in the court, I just want to regain the throne, they are not qualified to be called marquis, and the princes of Great Chu cannot all be mediocre. ”

Speaking of these things, Han Ruzi was a little angry, it stands to reason that only those with high military merits should be crowned marquis, during the period of Emperor Wu, there were frequent wars, and there were many people with military merits, but when Han Ruzi needed a general, he checked among the hundreds of marquis, and he couldn't find a few available people, Biyuan Marquis Zhang Yin was already outstanding, and the others were either attacking the merits of their ancestors, or the emperor's relatives and relatives, and there were very few people who really relied on military merit to get the title, and most of them were old and could not serve the country.

"Of course the Wu brothers shouldn't be on the throne anymore, but they can't be guilty of death, right?" Kim Chun Chun said.

"To death? What exactly have you heard? "Han Ruzi is really a little curious.

"Since His Majesty issued a decree to seize the throne, the Wu family thought that they were going to be exterminated, and they were in a panic, and the yamen who didn't know where they sent soldiers to guard the gate to the Wu Mansion, and the Wu family was not allowed to travel at will, saying that they were waiting for His Majesty's holy decree."

Han Ruzi was taken aback, and then wondered, "How could the Wu family ask you here?" ”

Jin Chunzhong shook his head, "Wu Mansion is not far from here, I saw it by chance when I was passing by, and I heard the people on the street talking about it, so I knew about it." Originally, this had nothing to do with me, but I felt that such an approach was definitely not His Majesty's intention, so I felt that His Majesty needed to know. ”

"Well, you're doing the right thing, I should know." Han Ruzi was furious, he could allow a certain degree of deviation in the execution of his orders, but he could not allow anyone to distort his original intentions.

"You step down first, don't mention this to outsiders."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Kim Chun-advised to retire.

Han Ruzi thought for a while and asked the eunuch to summon Cai Xinghai.

Cai Xinghai took over an army of Su Guards, and he followed the emperor wherever he went, and was one of the most trusted close ministers, and he arrived soon after hearing the order.

"Do you know Zhao Ruosu, a person from Zhongshushe?"

"I know, the person who often gives His Majesty a recital, I haven't seen it in the past few days."

"Go get him."

Cai Xinghai was ordered to leave, but Han Ruzi was worried that his order would be misunderstood again, so he added, "Please come over." ”

Although "please" and "find" are only one word apart, the consequences are completely different, Cai Xinghai immediately understood, and was ordered to retire again.

It was Zhao Ruosu's idea to seize the marquis, and Han Ruzi wanted to listen to his explanation.

After nightfall, Cai Xinghai came back to restore his life, but he didn't bring Zhao Ruosu, and his face was full of doubts, "Zhao Ruosu has been missing for several days, and the family is so anxious that there is no news." (To be continued.) )
