Chapter 359: Chang'an Chaos Statue
Chang'an is in chaos, completely in chaos. Specifically, it was disturbed by someone, at first it was just an unclear gangster who entered Chang'an, and later it became a group of gangsters wandering around Chang'an. At first, the heroes chose forbearance, but later found that forbearance was not a thing. Seeing more and more territory occupied by others, it is natural that as a former land snake, it will not be comfortable.
Today, the Axe Gang and the Black Veil Gang had a dispute, and several people died. Tomorrow, Yijianmen and Ziwutang will make a move, smashing more than a dozen shops. The day after tomorrow, the copper-headed and horse-faced kings made a move, and more than 50 people were affected. In a word, Chang'an City can see fights and brawls every day, and Jing Zhaoyin's public servants are anxious, but they can't do anything. There is a force behind every strong man, not to mention them, even if Jing Zhaoyin comes forward in person, it can't be settled.
Jing Zhaoyin did not act, the people of Chang'an were miserable, in order to avoid the unjustified disaster, many people chose not to go out, but they really couldn't take the risk to come out. The Taixue construction site is in Chang'an, so naturally there is no reason to be spared. In fact, in the first few days of the project, a strong man once came, and in front of everyone's eyes, Su Ren actually chose to give money, so Sima Xiangru and others muttered in Su Ren's ear for a long time, and everyone had not convinced Su Ren, and there was an accident at the construction site again.
On that day, more than 20 men armed with sticks suddenly broke into the construction site, did not say a word to anyone, did not say who they were looking for, beat people when they saw them, and smashed things when they saw them. The wall painting that had just been painted was splashed with filth. The half-built model house was a mess inside. More than a dozen of the people working on the construction site were injured, seven or eight of the craftsmen were beaten, and even Sima Xiangru was beaten with a stick.
Covering the back of his head, Sima Xiangru said angrily at Su Ren: "Let you transfer some guards to take care of it, you don't listen, it's good now, it's been done for nothing in a month, and such a big construction site is stirred up like this, how much money do you have to lose?" The people are not here these days, and it seems that the construction period does not know how long it will be delayed! ”
Su Ren sighed and poured Sima Xiangru a glass of water: "I also told you, don't go, don't go, you don't listen, it's okay to get a stick, right?" ”
Sima Xiangru turned his face away and ignored Su Ren no longer. Hawking glared: "Big brother, do you know who it is?" I'm going to kill him tonight!" ”
"Get out!" Su Ren turned around and kicked Hawking: "I know every day that I am brave and ruthless, so I can't use my brains, get out!" No one is allowed to come without my orders! ”
Hearing this, Sima Xiangru turned his head and looked at Su Ren: "Should it be ......?"
Su Ren nodded with a smile and handed the water to Sima Xiangru: "Do you remember that before Dongfang Shuo left Chang'an, I was called to the palace?" ”
Sima Xiangru sat up suddenly: "Your Majesty is going to make a move?" ”
Su Ren smiled: "The more chaotic this Chang'an, the better, the more chaotic it is for us, Wei Qing's matter made His Majesty see the hidden danger of Haoqiang, and also understood the involvement of Haoqiang and the emperor's relatives, to deal with the emperor's relatives, Haoqiang must be among them, there is such a big thing at our construction site, you can go to Your Majesty to complain and complain, do you go?" ”
"Hey! You've been calculated again! ”
Liu Che's face sank like water, and Jing Zhaoyin, who was kneeling on the ground, was sweating. Xuchang, as a recommender, was also implicated. Throwing the music in front of him to the ground, Liu Che slapped the table and was furious: "What can you do?" Chang'an is more and more chaotic, this is the national capital, the national capital is chaotic like this, and you still expect other places? Jing Zhaoyin, how do you say this matter should be handled? ”
"The minister is guilty, I beg Your Majesty to surrender!"
"Condemnation?" Liu Che sneered: "What crime are you?" ”
"The minister did not govern Chang'an well, and he was entrusted by His Majesty, and the minister was willing to resign, hoping that His Majesty would approve it!"
"Gone? Think of it beautifully! Come on, drag it out and behead it, I don't need such a corpse vegetarian official! ”
Jing Zhaoyin, who had just been in office for less than ten days, lost his head inexplicably, and Xu Chang, who recommended him, did not dare to speak, but just turned his head slightly to look at Zhuang Qingzhai, with resentment in his eyes. Zhuang Qingzhai closed his eyes slightly, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with him, and he didn't react to the prime minister's side gaze.
Liu Che was angry, and it was unprecedented that it did not affect Xuchang, which made Xuchang feel better. Since Jing Zhaoyin, who had just taken office, was beheaded, someone had to replace him, and someone proposed Ji Di, and as soon as he said it, he felt that it was inappropriate, and Ji Di was dismissed because of his inaction, and at this time the nomination was obviously a personal vendetta of the communiqué. What's more, in the case of Chang'an City, proposing to anyone is not a good thing, but an offense.
"Doctor Yushi, do you have anyone to recommend?" Liu Che glared at the guy who nominated Ji Di, since the prime minister's person is not suitable, the Taiwei is in charge of the army, and there is only the Imperial Doctor.
Zhuang Qingzhai hurriedly said: "There is no suitable candidate for the minister!" ”
"Humph! Is there no one in my Han who can govern Chang'an? Liu Che was angry again.
Xu Chang glanced at Zhuang Qingzhai, didn't care if the emperor was still angry with him, and stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to recommend one more!" ”
"Who?"
"Doctor Xu Leke also!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhuang Qingzhai was a clever man. Xu Le, a doctor in the middle, is a talented person, and he is also good at resignation. Recommended, even Liu Che likes it, and many major matters are discussed with Xu Le and Dongfang Shuo. It's just that Xu Le doesn't have Dongfang Shuo's cleverness, and today he is just a middle doctor. For this reason, Xu Le was depressed and unhappy. And the person who recommended Xu Le happened to be him Zhuang Qingzhai, the two were each other's honor guards, and in the court, they could not only gain the trust of the Empress Dowager, but also be able to speak in front of Liu Che.
Zhuang Qingzhai hurriedly said: "No, Xu Le is just famous, the disaster of the Chang'an Rebellion lies in Haoqiang, Xu Le may not be competent as a scribe!" ”
Xu Chang sneered: "Xu Le is recommended by the Imperial Doctor, and he once said that he is talented, but now how can he say that he is famous, is it possible that the Imperial Doctor recommends unknown people?" ”
Zhuang Qingzhai was blocked by Xu Chang and had nothing to say, and looked at Liu Che anxiously. Liu Che looked at Xuchang, and then at Zhuang Qingzhai: "Then let Xu Le try, if not, Chang'an is the national capital, and it must not be messed up, whoever wants to make Chang'an ** unbearable, I will never spare it!" ”
As soon as Emperor Chrysostom opened, the matter was settled, and Zhuang Qingzhai had no chance to refute it. After retreating from the dynasty, Xu Chang glanced at Zhuang Qingzhai viciously, turned around and walked out of the palace gate, got into the car, and ignored anyone. The rest of the ministers, you look at me, I look at you, look at the prime minister's carriage, look back at Zhuang Qingzhai, and all kinds of thoughts come to mind.
Zhuang Qingzhai went out of the palace gate, and the more he thought about things, the more aggrieved he became. Although it is said that the prime minister and the imperial historian are both three dukes, their status is far apart, and they were counting on the matter of Chang'an to press Xuchang this time, but who expected the emperor to ignore Xuchang. And with a backhand blow, Xu Chang put himself on fire.
The coachman drove the carriage back, and just after passing Jingsheng Street, Zhuang Qingzhai hurriedly stopped: "Turn around and go to Changle Palace!" ”
The coachman was stunned for a moment, and wanted to ask the reason, but found that his master had a bad face, so he didn't dare to ask more, and turned around and went towards Changle Palace. Zhuang Qingzhai is out of the way this time, the Empress Dowager doesn't know about Chang'an's affairs, there is such a big mess, no one dares to tell the Empress Dowager, but if Xu Le really makes Jing Zhaoyin, Zhuang Qingzhai doesn't expect him to have good luck with Xuchang.
The Empress Dowager is in a good mood, and Wei Zifu's pregnancy has made the atmosphere in the palace much better, and even Queen Chen Ajiao, who likes to cause trouble, has a lot of peace. This must be the emperor's first child, and he is very strict from top to bottom, and the empress dowager has strictly ordered that whoever has to do his hands and feet will never be spared. Wei Zifu is also smart, although he has already shown his pregnancy, he still comes to the Longevity Hall every once in a while to visit the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager does not reject this quiet woman.
When Zhuang Qingzhai came, Wei Zifu was also there, and he made a small coat yesterday, and specially brought it to the Empress Dowager to taste, and said politely, saying that she didn't understand herself, and asked the Empress Dowager for guidance. The granddaughter-in-law asked herself for her great-grandson, and the old lady naturally knew everything, from the material to the stitches little by little, little by little, the grandparents and grandson chatted very well.
Zhuang Qingzhai begged to see him, and Wei Zifu said goodbye and left. At the gate of the Longevity Palace, the two met, and Wei Zifu hurriedly avoided it and nodded to Zhuang Qingzhai. Zhuang Qingzhai turned a blind eye and walked straight in.
The Empress Dowager Dou Shi stared at her empty eyes: "What's wrong?" The mourning family said, no matter what happens during this time, it will all be handled by His Majesty, what are you doing here at the mourning family? ”
Zhuang Qingzhai knelt on the ground: "The Empress Dowager is angry, and the ministers have no choice, the Empress Dowager doesn't know, Chang'an is in chaos!" ”
"Nonsense!" Dou's crutches knocked on the floor: "Chang'an is the national capital, there are two armies in the north and south, and there are three auxiliaries to protect each other, who is so bold and dares to make Chang'an chaotic?" Does the emperor just care? ”
"Your Majesty is also very helpless, Jing Zhao Yin Ji Huang has been dismissed, the new Jing Zhao Yin, who has just been in office for ten days, was also executed by His Majesty this morning, Chang'an has been chaotic for a lifetime, Your Majesty seems to be at a loss, I dare not make decisions as an old minister, and the minister has the courage to come to see the Empress Dowager!"
"Is that really the case?" Dou asked not Zhuang Qingzhai, but the attendants around him.
At this time, the chamberlain didn't dare to hide it anymore, so he could only nod his head and say yes, and briefly said the current situation in Chang'an, which was naturally modified and didn't say anything too serious.
Dou was furious: "Those heroes are so blind, and the feet of the Son of Heaven are so rampant, and other counties don't know what it looks like!" Go, bring Your Majesty here, and ask the mourning family how he is the emperor, and he can't even manage the things around him! ”
The waiter didn't dare to take it a little, and hurriedly went to find Liu Che. Zhuang Qingzhai let out a sigh of relief: "The Empress Dowager is gracious, it's not that Your Majesty doesn't care, it's really that Your Majesty is still young, and the Empress Dowager has to make up her mind for major matters, and the minister implores the Empress Dowager to transfer the Northern Army into the city, and crack down those who do mischief, this chaos in Chang'an may be alleviated!" ”
"No! Never! As soon as Zhuang Qingzhai finished speaking, a familiar voice sounded beside him. Zhuang Qingzhai was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned his head to look, and found that a person walked out from behind the screen. Seeing this person, Zhuang Qingzhai immediately had a premonition that he had smashed it this time.
