Everyone's eyes are on Wang Hao, if Li Gang's criticism of Wang Hao also involves factional disputes, everyone will have other ideas, but Li Yanqing's accusation is different, he is a great hero in defending Taiyuan, even the Jin State is afraid of him, and he does not hesitate to withdraw the army in exchange for his transfer from Taiyuan, and he has the support of hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, which makes him invisibly have a prestige that is difficult for ordinary people to reach in the imperial court, and he also has a certain influence on the affairs of the imperial court.

So his face-to-face accusation against Wang Hao made Zhao Ji, the son of heaven, a little unable to sit still, and asked Wang Hao unhappily, "Wang Xiangguo, what's going on?" ”

Wang Hao's face flushed and explained: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen just wants to make overall arrangements for the relief of refugees, so it will take a little time. ”

"It takes a little time, more than a month has passed, there is no movement from the imperial court and the local government, hundreds of thousands of refugees who cannot escape are suffering in hunger and cold, they never dreamed that the relief of the imperial court actually disappeared in Wang Xiangguo's understatement."

Li Yanqing saluted Zhao Ji and the crown prince Zhao Huan again, "Your Majesty, the crown prince is in charge of the country, Weichen met a group of refugees who fled from Zhending Mansion this morning, they cried to me, they are not willing to be slaves of the Jin soldiers, even if they die, they will be the subjects of the Great Song Dynasty, he escaped the Yellow River with great difficulty, but many old people died of illness and hunger, Your Majesty, this is your people, they did not die under the iron hooves of the Jin people, but died in Wang Xiangguo's understatement, who will bear this responsibility?" ”

Li Yanqing's last sentence was full of emotion, he finally had a seizure in the court, shocking all the people in the court, since the disgrace of the minister, no minister has ever dared to have such an attack in the court, Zhao Ji's face suddenly became very ugly, but Li Yanqing's words were heart-wrenching, leaving him speechless.

At this time, Cai Jing got up and said, "Li Fuyin, please don't be angry, Your Majesty, please let Lao Chen say a word." ”

Zhao Ji nodded depressedly, "Cai Xianggong, please speak!" ”

Cai Jing said slowly: "Since the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, there have been clear regulations on the people of disasters, and the government will provide relief on the spot, in fact, it does not need to be approved by the court, and His Majesty made clear instructions on the rebellion of Fang La a few years ago, but all the soldiers and disasters are displaced from the people, and the local governments will provide relief on their own, so although Wang Xiangguo has some delays in submitting the reply, he cannot completely put the responsibility on Wang Xiangguo, it can only be said that the local government does not act, and there is also a great responsibility." ”

Li Yanqing raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this the rule?" The government has the right to provide relief on its own, without the need for approval from the Governor's Hall. ”

"That's the rule!"

Li Yanqing nodded, and asked Wang Hao sharply: "I believe in Cai Xianggong's judgment, and I believe in the Son of Heaven's compassion for the people's holy will, then I have to ask Wang Xiangguo, as the Yin of Kaifeng Prefecture, I followed His Majesty's will to give relief to the sixteen counties of Kaifeng Prefecture, but your dignified Wang Xiangguo sent people to the counties of Kaifeng Prefecture, strictly prohibiting the counties of Kaifeng Prefecture from providing relief to the victims, and openly confronting the Holy Decree, why is this?" ”

There was an uproar in the court, Wang Hao's face became extremely ugly, but he couldn't say a word, Zhao Ji couldn't sit still, and asked, "Li Fuyin, do you have any evidence?" ”

Li Yanqing took out Wang Hao's silver medal and presented it, "This is the token that Wang Hao sent people to the counties to order, please check it out for Your Majesty!" ”

A eunuch presented the silver medal to Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji looked at the silver medal, and was really a little annoyed in his heart, this silver medal is different in addition to the text on it, the style of the silver medal, and even the ornamentation on it are exactly the same as his own gold medal of the Son of Heaven, he has never approved the ministers other than the prince can have the silver medal, needless to say, this is engraved by Wang Huang without authorization, and there is a suspicion of trespassing.

Zhao Ji glared at Wang Ji fiercely, Wang Hao could see the dissatisfaction in Zhao Ji's eyes, and he was so frightened that he fell to his knees and kowtowed again and again, "Weichen is guilty!" ”

The guilt he said was not that he sent people to prohibit the relief of refugees, but that the secret of his silver medal was discovered by Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji said coldly: "You transfer all the court affairs in your hands to Cai Lao Xiangguo, and you are not allowed to ask about the government again within two months!" ”

Wang Hao sweated profusely and whispered: "Weichen.... Obey! ”

Zhao Ji said to Cai Jing again: "The plan for the relief of refugees must be introduced immediately, and it is not allowed to be delayed any longer, and the prefect can ask the prince for instructions to handle this matter well!" ”

Cai Jing hurriedly got up and said, "The old minister must live up to His Majesty's trust and start dealing with this matter today." ”

Zhao Ji nodded, glanced at Li Yanqing, and said slowly: "I know that Li Fuyin has just come out of the army, and some military habits can't be changed, and I don't blame you, but the imperial court is not an army after all, I hope that Li Fuyin can adapt to the status of a civilian official as soon as possible, and try his best to assist the prince in governing the capital." ”

"Your Majesty Thank You for your tolerance!"

Zhao Ji was very unhappy in his heart, Wang Huang's lack of anger was one thing, Li Yanqing's roaring at the court also made him lose face, and even Li Yanqing's aggressiveness actually made him feel a little afraid.

"Retreat!"

Zhao Ji got up and flicked his sleeves, and then rushed away angrily.

Wang Hao stared at Li Yanqing viciously and left in a hurry, at this time, Cai Jing walked in front of the crown prince Zhao Huan, and said with sincerity: "In the past, the old minister had more than enough heart and insufficient strength, but now the old minister can be a little master, and the old minister will cooperate with His Royal Highness to the greatest extent and make all the war preparations." ”

Zhao Huan was very happy in his heart, they were at a disadvantage at today's court meeting, but Li Yanqing came out of the air, reversed the situation at once, and knocked down the biggest stumbling block Wang Huang, although it was only suspended for two months, it was enough to make many of his decrees unblocked, and Cai Jing's statement made him taste the sweetness of victory.

Zhao Huan said with a smile: "I hope that we will first work together to introduce a refugee resettlement plan, which is a top priority." ”

"The old minister thinks so too."

At this time, Zhao Huan looked into the distance, only to see Li Yanqing saluting him at the door of the hall, Zhao Huan nodded, Li Yanqing turned around and left quickly.

Cai Jing looked at Li Yanqing's distant back, and smiled: "Li Fujun's strategy today is very clever, what does Your Highness think?" ”

Of course, Zhao Huan also saw it, Li Yanqing took every step of the way, created an atmosphere, and finally came up with a killer weapon to knock down Wang Huang in one fell swoop, and also made his father unable to protect Wang Huang, the strategy is indeed very clever, but Zhao Huan was also a little worried, and sighed slightly, "Today's performance is a bit excessive, I'm afraid that my father will be dissatisfied with him from now on." ”

"Actually, it doesn't matter, young and young! There will be opportunities in the future. ”

Cai Jing saw that Li Gang was still waiting next to him, so he bowed slightly, "Your Highness, the old minister has taken a step first,"

"The old man walks slowly."

Cai Jing left the hall and went back to his official room.

.........

Not long after Li Yanqing came out of the main hall, Gao Yu chased after him from behind, "Li Fujun, I'm sorry at noon yesterday!" ”

Originally, the two made an appointment to go to the Zhu Skull Teahouse for tea at noon yesterday, but Gao Yu had an urgent matter yesterday and had to apologize to Li Yanqing.

Li Yanqing smiled slightly, "Yesterday, my first day in office, I was indeed very busy. ”

Gao Yu smiled, "Why don't we go to Alum Tower for a drink now." ”

It happened that the time for the dispersal of the dynasty had also arrived, and Li Yanqing said happily: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!" ”

The two rode out of the Xuande Building, and soon came to the Alum Building, compared with the past, the Alum Building was much more deserted, the five restaurants in the spring, summer, autumn and winter months were closed to three, only the Lamei Building and the Furong Building were still open to the public, but the guests were still full.

Of course, there will be a special reserve room when Gao Yu arrives, they entered a private room on the third floor and sat down, the maid brought wine and food, Gao Yu personally poured a glass for Li Yanqing and said with a smile: "Alum Tower is going to move to the West Lake in Hangzhou, you know!" ”

Li Yanqing really didn't know, "What about the alum tower in the capital?" He asked, puzzled.

"I think it's going to be open! But it won't be as popular as before, the most beautiful women and the best wine were sent to Hangzhou, I heard that Hangzhou Alum House will open next month, I want to go to Hangzhou to see if I have the opportunity. ”

"The captain should have a chance soon." Li Yanqing said with a pun and smiled.

Gao Yu asked the two wine maids to go down, and he lowered his voice and said: "Originally, when the Jin soldiers fought to the Yellow River, the official family decided to abdicate, but was later dissuaded by Wang Huang. ”

Li Yanqing shook his head, "It's not that Wang Hao persuaded him to stop, but the pressure of the Jin soldiers is not enough, if the Jin soldiers attack in winter, they will directly cross the Yellow River and come to the city, and the ten Wang Hao will not be able to persuade them." ”

Gao Yu drank all the wine in the cup, "Everyone in the court said that Jin Bing would not come again, but secretly everyone is retreating, the court is very chaotic now, and the situation in the court in the past two months is very weird, I advise you to keep a low profile, your performance in Zichen Hall today is a little unwise!" ”

Li Yanqing smiled faintly, "Now is the time to stand in line with a high profile, even Cai Xianggong took the initiative to report to the prince when he retired from the dynasty, how can the prince be low-key at this critical moment?" ”

Gao Yu was stunned for a moment, he fell into deep thought, drank a few glasses of wine, and Gao Yu asked again: "Have you visited Liang Shicheng?" ”

Li Yanqing groaned and said, "I went to see him yesterday afternoon, but he was not in the house, saying that he had been in the palace recently. ”

"Liang Shicheng hasn't been back to his home for almost two months, and he has been staying in the palace, do you believe it?"

Li Yanqing was puzzled, "Why is this?" ”

Gao Yu sneered and said: "King Yun served as the commander of the Northern Expedition, Liang Shicheng stood on the wrong team, and actually ran to show loyalty to King Yun, but this matter was poked out by King Yun's personal eunuch, Liang Shicheng was terrified, for fear that the official family would not take him south, so he stayed in the palace every day, and asked me to say, the more he is like this, the more the official family is tired of him, last month he said that he would donate 500,000 yuan to the inner treasury, but he was scolded by the official family and asked him how he had so much money? ”

Li Yanqing knew in his heart that Liang Shicheng had completely lost power, but now Li Yanqing is no longer worried about Liang Shicheng catching him, even if Liang Shicheng told Zhao Ji that Li Shishi was taken away by himself, I believe that Zhao Ji would not dare to attack himself at this time, on the contrary, he would only vent his anger on Liang Shicheng, Liang Shicheng has concealed this matter for many years, which is a betrayal of Zhao Ji.

At this time, Gao Yu poured Li Yanqing another glass of wine, he took the sword from his waist, put it on the table and pushed it to Li Yanqing, and said slowly: "This sword has followed me for many years, please ask my brother to hand over this sword to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for me." ”
