Chapter 264: Those who have learned before and after are teachers

The words are divided into two ends, Song Huizong and Zhao seem to be discussing major matters in secret; Zhao Gou came to the Supervision Yuan happily, and the others stepped forward to congratulate him, but only one person had a blue face and angry eyes, and this person was Xu Jingheng, the former Inspector Yushi.

Zhao Gou comprehended, didn't say much, and after being stunned for a while, he let everyone go down and continue to deal with official business. Now, under the leadership of Zhao Gou, the ministers no longer dare to scoff at it, just because Zhao Gou has dealt with two major cases in a row after taking office, and no one in the court can escape, as long as he is caught, no one can escape.

Today, it is not the Privy Council, which is in charge of military power, nor the Sanshu Province, which is in charge of power, but the Supervisory Yuan.

It is an eternal truth that prosperity must decline!

Even if he is an official of the Supervision Yuan who is in the limelight, he does not dare to be high-profile, if he is caught by Zhao Gou, he will be severely punished, and everyone admires him even more in their hearts, as long as it is Zhao Gou's order, they will do their best to do it!

After Zhao Gou took office, he made the Supervision Yuan's big long face, and it was no longer an embarrassing place in the court, as if there was a kind of competition with the Privy Council and the Shangshu Provincial Division, and it became a three-legged trend.

The officials of the DPRK and China hated the Supervision Yuan to the core, and it was limited to those who had ghosts in their hearts, and the upright people did not need to worry, so they gladly accepted it, but applauded what Zhao Gou did after taking office, and gradually talked to them, and even the people praised them, this is the first time they have been recognized since they became officials, how unhappy!

Xu Jingheng turned around and walked in with a cold face, he admired Zhao Gou's ability, but he didn't know why the investigation of the corruption case had no result, obviously the matter was clear and finally it was over, he had a grudge against him in his heart, and felt that he had mistrusted Zhao Gou.

Zhao Gou knew why Xu Jingheng was cold to him, and he didn't say anything, you must know that this matter is indeed difficult to deal with, and you have to take care of some things. If it weren't for Xu Jingheng's talents, and he was still a good official for the country and the people, how could Zhao Gou care about his thoughts.

"My lord, do you have something to find an official?" Xu Jingheng said lukewarmly.

Zhao Gou met with him alone, and saw his face at this time and said straight to the point: "The corruption case has come to an end, Lord Xu doesn't have to worry about it!" ”

"The lower officials don't dare!" Xu Jingheng replied sneeringly.

Zhao Gou didn't mind at all, and still smiled enthusiastically: "Lord Xu, you must know the truth between the trade-offs if you are familiar with the subset of scriptures and history!" Xu Jingheng didn't answer, raised his head to look at Zhao Gou, and heard him continue: "The trade-off is nothing more than a relationship of interest, I have already found out the person behind the corruption case, and I also know the ins and outs of the matter, but he is just deceived by others and does such a foolish thing!" ”

"Now that he's reformed, why not give him a chance! If a person is not a sage, who can be without fault; Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, good is great! He is more useful alive than dead, how simple it is to die, but he can reform himself and be loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, for the sake of the people, there is one less person with bad intentions, and one more good official for the country and the people, isn't it happy! ”

Besides, he has already confessed his sins, and the past is over! If we have been entangled in the past and do not give some people who have gone the wrong way a chance to correct their mistakes, then how strong will the Great Song Dynasty be? ”

Xu Jingheng lowered his head and pondered silently, Zhao Gou's age was very different from him. But what Zhao Gou said, he had to admire, thinking that he had been an official for more than ten years but was said by a boy who had been a fledgling for a few years, and he didn't feel good in his heart.

Xu Jingheng is one of the few people in the Supervision Yuan who has real talent and learning, but his character is too upright, and because of this, he has offended many people, but others can't bear it.

He doubted the identity of the person behind the scenes, but he did not have real evidence and did not dare to speculate. It's just that he is unwilling, the embezzlement case is too sensitive, and the impact of that incident is quite large, these are haunting his heart, and he can't sleep for several days!

Zhao Yan seemed to guess that he was still entangled, and said earnestly: "This matter can be big or small, some things don't have to be investigated, steel is easy to break, if you want to be like a fish in water, you can only learn to comply, otherwise you will harm yourself!" It is not uncommon for domestic officials in the Great Song Dynasty to be corrupt, and it is not uncommon to deal with too many people for fear of being implicated; Now that Tong Guan bows his head, why do you need to get to the bottom of it, so as not to anger Long Yan, I'm afraid that the consequences are not something you and I can bear! ”

Xu Jingheng's face changed several times, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, his own character knew better than anyone else, and he still couldn't understand the way of being an official after more than ten years of being an official, otherwise how could he be a supervising imperial history, and the official rank had never been promoted.

Now, Zhao Gou's words made him wake up like a dream and embarrassed; Thinking back to what he has done since he became an official, he has served the country and the people wholeheartedly, but he has never had the current treatment, and he is ashamed of himself.

It's not wrong to be upright, but you can't be too upright, otherwise you will be killed. The Great Song Dynasty is the world of the Zhao family, and the current emperor is obscure, and he can't see the depth. Now that the person behind the scenes has been found, this matter is over, and the emperor must know, that is to say, this matter has been approved by the emperor, so what reason does he have to continue to get to the bottom of it.

Xu Jingheng smiled bitterly, recalled everything, woke up like a dream, and said respectfully: "It's better for the lower officials to be ashamed, Master Xie for guidance!" ”

Zhao Gou could see that Xu Jingheng was speaking from the bottom of his heart, and he also knew that he had figured it out! Although Zhao Gou said it very vaguely, in fact, it was to point him out and let him understand his character flaws, and it was also for his consideration, as long as he changed his character that was too upright and went to the bottom of it, and then relied on his real talent and learning ability, he would definitely be able to be reused.

Xu Jingheng put down the mustard in his heart and talked with Zhao Gou for a long time; Zhao Gou also told the truth that Ye Mengde was not punished and was directly reinstated. As for the officials involved before, all the officials and others who were involved before were duly compensated, which was also an explanation given by Song Huizong, and Tong Guan became the culprit and destroyed his family.

The embezzlement case came to an end, and after that, Xu Jingheng's attitude towards Zhao Gou was not only respectful but also polite, as if he regarded Zhao Gou as a teacher, and the courtesy made Zhao Gou very strange, and he didn't say anything.

Xu Jingheng's ability is still very good, and Zhao Gou looks at him differently. As for the other officials of the Supervision Yuan, they didn't say much, they were originally the chief and deputy imperial historians of the Supervision Yuan, and it was normal for them to have frequent contacts. However, they saw that Xu Jingheng was extremely respectful to Zhao Gou, and they knew that Xu Jingheng's character could not be a sloppy horse, but sincere respect, which shocked them.

"There is no before and after learning, and the master is the teacher!"

Xu Jingheng was curious when he saw them, smiled, and finally only said this sentence to explain everything, which set off speculation among many officials in the Supervision Yuan, and after he said this, he didn't care about other people's eyes, and still went his own way!

If it weren't for the gossip being too powerful, Zhao Gou wouldn't bother to care, under his repeated orders, everyone else was silent, and no longer continued to ask, which made Zhao Gou depressed, he didn't expect this to be the result, crying and laughing at the initiator, the two also looked at each other helplessly and smiled bitterly, but the atmosphere of the Supervision Yuan returned to the long-lost harmony and smile, breaking the previous lifeless pattern, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain!
