Chapter 80: The Situation (Three Changes)
The so-called way of the emperor pays attention to a balance, and it is easy to say that he will not reveal his thoughts, but as Zhou Wei said, everyone dare not think that he does not understand the way of being a king.
It's just that the strength of the scholar can't be stopped because of a few words from the emperor, and those officials who are standing outside the queue, I don't know who started first, but they staged a drama of resignation.
Zhou Jian was still holding Lu Jian in his hand, the smile on his face was no longer pretending, he looked deeply at the old man in front of him, and said with appreciation: "Lu Xiang is worthy of being the minister of the humerus left by the emperor to me."
As soon as the words fell, Lu Jian bowed down a little more, but this respect was particularly ironic in Zhou Ji's eyes.
He walked back, stood on the stage and looked at the people who were hanging their heads below, and said, "I am preparing for the Ministry of Rites, and I want to open an Enke to take ......a scholar at the end of this autumn," and as he spoke, he glanced down at the hall and said word by word: "I don't believe it, there is no great talent for me to use."
Speaking of which, the field has been embarrassed.
Everyone turned their attention to Du Xian, but the right minister didn't mean to stand up and speak, and some people were angry but didn't dare to make any moves.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites came out to respond, and listened to Zhou Wei again: "As for the number of people in the hall...... We should go to the local area to see the people's livelihood. At the moment, adjustments were made one by one, and arrangements were made for these officials to accept their fate, and nothing more than that, they were all demoted and exiled to the marginal wilderness.
After doing this, Zhou Ji seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "There are a lot of vacancies in the imperial court at the moment, and the officials can take a list out and send it to the government hall for discussion, if there is no objection, they can be sent to the palace, and I will approve it immediately."
In a few words of the king, a large number of people changed their fate, but also let everyone see his thunderous methods.
Lu Jian listened quietly, but she was still cold and disheartened. What he did today had a slight implication of forcing Zhou Xuan to take back his life, but the little emperor didn't give him any face.
For a short time, they were speechless.
After the early dynasty, Zhou Wei returned to the imperial study and directly smashed the seal of his beloved, Huang En waited next to him, and he didn't dare to come out, as for the other little eunuchs, he was so afraid that he wanted to curl his head into his crotch.
"Hmph...... It's the other way around, it'......s the other way around," he said, his body couldn't help but tremble, his face turned white, and he coughed violently.
Huang En hurriedly ran over and took the silk scarf, and when he saw the blood stains on the silk scarf, Huang En immediately became anxious. After sending the little eunuch and palace maid next to him out, he immediately knelt down and said abruptly: "Official, you ......"
Zhou Wei looked at the silk scarf in his hand and only felt extremely ironic.
Raising his hand to signal Huang En to get up, he said slowly: "When I was still the prince, I thought about what I could do for this world...... Now that I sit in this seat, I think the time has finally come to show my ambitions, but ...... But those people, eating the court's money, but in private, they changed the law and embarrassed me...... Ahem, my body...... I don't have that much time! ”
With such a sentence, Huang En next to him had already knelt down. A strong relief. These words could not be said to them, but Zhou Wei said so, and this trust was really too heavy for Huang En. Even though he has been with him all the way since Zhou Ji was still a prince. Waiting with all my heart. But the status of an emperor's close attendant is naturally not comparable to before, and many people in the entire court expect to get news of the emperor from him.
"Huang Banban, you get up." Zhou Ji smiled and sat down on the desk.
"I know that many people have been asking you for news recently, you can say something to them, if you don't say it, someone will always say it."
Huang Endao: "The slave and maid will go to investigate, if they know who is chewing the root of the tongue, the slave and the maid will break his legs."
Zhou Ji shook his head: "No need, what is said outside, I don't want to know." I still have a few years to live, and there are other things that should really be bothered about, and I don't have the heart to pay attention to them. As he spoke, he also instructed: "You ask the people of the Imperial City Division to pay attention to the movements in the capital, those people are too lazy to do the work on the surface, and they must have some actions in private."
"I won't let them mess with the matter of changing the law one day I live."
Huang En nodded yes, and seeing that Zhou Xuan's face had recovered, he asked in a low voice, "Do you want Imperial Doctor Wang to come and have a look?"
Zhou Wei shook his head: "My body, I know it myself, don't talk about it, the Queen Mother will definitely call someone over, and you will help me block it."
Huang En's face was embarrassed, but he also responded.
Zhou Wei waved his hand and motioned for Huang En to go out.
Huang Ensue withdrew, Zhou Ji threw himself on the case, poof, a mouthful of thick blood spit into the water bowl, a pool of water was immediately soaked in red, and blood was splashed on the rice paper spread out next to it.
Zhou Ji took the silk towel on the table and wiped his mouth, his eyes showed a smear of dead ashes, but he became firm for a moment. Grunted: "Give me ten years, ten years is enough!"
Speaking of the back, even his voice trembled, obviously he knew that God would not give him ten years.
Fu looked at the bloody phlegm that had been dissolved by the water again, and Zhou Wei poured the ground thick ink next to him into it, until he could no longer see the slightest red, he called someone in and moved the water bowl out.
After returning to the table, he spread out the map of the territory of the new dynasty, Zhou Ji stared at the places marked in red, and smashed it with his fist at a certain moment.
Huang En was afraid that he would vomit blood again with anger, and was about to pounce over, when Zhou Wei had already opened his mouth: "My world...... How can you be so defeated by those guys. ”
Zhou Xuan's pale face made Huang En, who was next to him, worried and distressed.
*******
Du Xian returned to the house in the capital, and after a while, many people came to visit one after another, but he didn't see him, so he sent the housekeeper to stop people at the door.
In the study, the staff member named Ji Ning put down the account book in his hand and said slowly: "Du Gong is too cautious this time."
Du Xian looked at him and smiled: "I said that I said that those people outside said that the old man was ashamed of being a scholar in the world."
Ji Ning sighed: "Let's not say these polite words, according to Du Gong, Your Majesty is determined to change the law, knowing this is actually a great thing for us."
Du Xian nodded: "Indeed, this means that in the future, we can let go of what we do, but it is precisely because of this determination that we and the Korean and Central Sect and the gentry of the world have reached a point where there is no way to ease up.
Ji Ning nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Why don't you start with the northwest first?"
"Hmm...... That's one way to go. ”
