Chapter 139: A New Situation in the Imperial Court
Xia Zhu died, his son was favored, and even his nephew became an official!
Wang Ningan is simply mad, anyone who uses his brain a little knows how much sin Xia Zhu suffered on the issue of returning to the river! A Liuta River, the funds alone cost 3 million guan, if you count the food, materials, people, as well as the grain, bricks, tiles, wood washed away by the flood, all of which add up, there are 12 million guan, which is worth one-tenth of the annual income of the Great Song Dynasty!
This is not fatal, because of the mistake of returning to the river, delayed for more than a year, the tossed Hebei people withered, if the Liao State took advantage of the weakness, the consequences are unimaginable. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wang Ningan finally learned what wrong policies are worse than corruption.
The facts are clear, and the culprit Xia Zhu was not punished in any way, on the contrary, just because he died just right, he became a hero, and he was worshiped by everyone, and he had to continue to repeat his mistakes, and there was no heavenly reason!
"Drunkard, is this the preferential treatment of scholars? Xia Zhu from beginning to end, inside and out, is there anything worthy of respect? What is it to sacrifice him, is it a disaster to the country and the people, or a conspiracy? Let the Xia family continue to be free, is it worthy of the dead people? ”
Wang Ning'an finally broke out in front of Ouyang Xiu, he slammed the door, leaving the stunned old master, and left the Six Arts Academy directly, he had to calm down, otherwise he saw those big turbans, and he had the urge to rush up and beat them up, Ouyang Xiu was no exception, even Yan Shu!
The drunkard covered his forehead and smiled wryly, "Well said, scolded!" What a curse! But after all, the world is the world of scholars, and the old man is also one of the scholars, so what can he do? ”
Ouyang Xiu was drunk, Yaochi Qiong Jelly was gone, he drank the fruit wine brewed by the people of Santanzi Mountain, it was sour and astringent, difficult to swallow, exactly the same as his mood, this was not the first time Ouyang Xiu was disappointed, but this time it was too strong, which caught him off guard.
The Liuta River failed, Shanghukou broke its embankment again, and the Yellow River raged in Hebei, and displaced people were everywhere...... These imminent matters, the court is actually not interested, and the princes in the court and the opposition are all staring at the vacant chairs, one by one, eager to get their hands on it immediately.
The first to shoot was Jia Changchao, after he heard about the break, he immediately instigated his henchmen to impeach Zheng Xiang on the table, Jia Changchao calculated very clearly, as long as Zheng Xiang was taken, Xia Zhu would not be able to run, step by step, pull Xia Xianggong off the horse.
The old thing is too powerful, you must always be careful of his counterattack, and you can't let him run anymore.
Jia Changchao was full of joy, who knew that after waiting for two days, he suddenly received the news of Xia Zhu's death, Jia Xianggong laughed wildly, but halfway through the laughter, it was like being choked by the neck, and he turned into a rage and smashed the porcelain in the study!
Jia Changchao was only wearing a middle coat and jumped to his feet and scolded.
"Shameless old thief, pale face, traitorous like loyalty, dare to deceive the sky! You can deceive the people of the world, but you can't deceive my surname Jia, do you think it's over when you die, you should cut it with a thousand knives, whip the corpse 300, whip the corpse 300!! ”
Jia Changchao roared wildly, scolding and sweating profusely, but after scolding, he still honestly went to the study, and praised Jia Changchao on the table, saying that the old minister did not care about his reputation, worked tirelessly, cherished the people, and died of caring for the people, and should be treated favorably. Although Zheng Xiang made a big mistake, he still has a conscience, and he still has a trace of shame, and he can commit suicide to atone for his crimes, and the court should also sympathize with his descendants.
In addition, Jia Changchao also asked people to go to Xia Zhu's hometown with a generous gift to mourn the old minister, proving to the outside world that between him and Xia Zhu is not as hostile as the legend says, they are not right about things or people, and they are confidants in private. Jia Changchao also pretended to write a few poems to express his grief.
Although Jia Changchao's acting skills are 100 points, his reputation is too bad.
Some people impeached Jia Changchao, saying that he was hypocritical and treacherous, that the Liuta River project failed, and that Jia Changchao was also responsible, and that he was not worthy of entering the Western Mansion.
After working for more than a year, Jia Xianggong's dream of returning to the capital was temporarily shattered, and he could only cry and faint in the toilet.
Compared with Jia Xianggong, Han Qi's means are more clever, although the privy envoy is good, but Han Xianggong covets the throne of the prime minister more, and he wants to achieve his goal steadily.
On the day when the news of the break reached the capital, Han Qi personally went out and killed Chen Zhizhong's mansion, and the two talked for more than an hour, and on the third day, Chen Zhizhong asked for a resignation on the grounds that he was unwell, old and mediocre, and unbearable.
Zhao Zhen actually looked down on this mediocre prime minister for a long time, but symbolically retained a few times, Chen Zhizhong insisted on not listening, Zhao Zhen had to crown him with the Ping Zhangshi and privy envoy, out of Chen Zhou, although he is no longer the prime minister, but he is still the party with the highest salary and the highest treatment.
From here, it can be seen why the literati praised the Song Dynasty so desperately, did not hesitate to rhetoric, and praised the Great Song Dynasty to the sky, and the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty were too cool and crooked......
Xia Zhu and Chen Zhizhong are gone, and the other university scholar Ding Du's health is getting worse and worse, and he can't support it, so he asked Zhishi, and Zhao Zhen also agreed.
Three positions were vacated at once, and the eyes of all parties were green, and one by one, like wolves, they tore off all their disguises, and they couldn't wait to rush forward and fight.
……
It's a pity that Han Xianggong, who was once the most active, was embarrassed at this time.
"Brother Yanguo, during this time, Your Majesty often goes to Concubine Zhang's palace, and he cherishes it very much, better than the queen!" Han Qi is always so deaf and clear-sighted, Fu Bi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "I really don't know." ”
"Just play dumb!" Han Qi smiled indifferently, "Concubine Zhang Guifei can get His Majesty's favor, it is said that it is because she wears lantern brocade clothes, which are extremely gorgeous, like a fairy." Brother Yan Guo, won't you even know the lantern brocade? ”
Fu Bi had no choice but to nod, "I've heard that the lantern brocade is the best among the Shu brocades, the price exceeds gold, and it is not available when it is idle, where did Zhang Guifei get it...... Could it be that it's Wen Kuanfu? ”
"That's right, it's the old thing!"
Who has such a great ability to make Han Xianggong grit his teeth and be afraid?
This is the Wen Yanbo who poured the water float into the tree hole, Wen Kuanfu!
This person has been in the government for 20 years, has made a magistrate all over again, and dealt with Western Xia, it can be said that he is a civil and military all-rounder, with excellent wisdom, and deep scheming, even Han Qi sighed to himself.
Just when the world was in turmoil, Wen Yanbo went through Zhang Guifei's door, and the purpose was self-evident.
Fu Bi frowned, "Brother Gansuo, in my opinion, Wen Kuanfu has never been a zaifu before, even if he is summoned to the capital, he is not just participating in political affairs, so he doesn't have to care." ”
Han Qi was not so optimistic, he smiled and shook his head, "Brother Yanguo, you are a sincere gentleman, maybe you don't see that Your Majesty is disgusted with party strife and wants to change someone who has nothing to do with it." ”
I have to say that Han Qi's vision is vicious, this time the matter of returning to the river has come to this time, and above the court, two major factions have been faintly formed, and now Xia Zhu is dead, Chen Zhizhong is dismissed, and the faction that supports Huihe is completely finished.
If Han Qi and Fu Bi are appointed, and Jia Changchao is brought back, it means that he will never want to return to the river again, but Zhao Zhen still has such a thought in his heart, and he doesn't want to give up the Yellow River, so it has become a good choice to transfer Wen Yanbo from Sichuan to the capital.
Fu Bi also acknowledged Han Qi's opinion, but he felt that one Wen Yanbo was not enough to turn things around.
"Brother Gansuo, even if Your Majesty asks Wen Kuanfu to take over the East Mansion, then the West Mansion is still vacant, and you can still display your talents."
"Hahaha!"
Han Qi suddenly laughed, laughing a little desolately, and a little angry!
"Xia Zhu, old horseman! Even if you die, you should go to eighteen layers of hell! Han Qi was furious, without any scruples, and scolded when he opened his mouth.
Of course he wanted to scold people, Han Xianggong worked hard to force Chen Zhizhong to retreat, just to let others compete for the East Mansion, he easily went to the West Mansion and took over the position left by Xia Zhu.
After failing to return to the river and Xia Zhu's reputation, Han Qi took the opportunity to clean up Xia Zhu's forces, accumulate energy, and then enter the Eastern Mansion.
In the Qingli New Deal, Han Qi has endured enough of the hardships of an unstable foundation, and every step must be solid and accurate.
But it backfired, as soon as he won Chen Zhizhong, the news of Xia Zhu's death came, and then there were voices speaking for Xia Zhu everywhere, remembering Xia Xianggong from top to bottom.
made Han Qi embarrassed all of a sudden, Xia Xianggong not only failed to lose his reputation, but also became a saint, and then changed Xia Zhu's policy and overthrew Xia Zhu's employment, which was like a whip corpse.
In addition, he resolutely opposed the Liuta River Project before, and others would even take advantage of this to attack, saying that Han Qi was resentful and revengeful, narrow-minded, and unworthy of being a ruler.
If Han Qi doesn't do it and honestly occupies the position of the privy envoy, then it will be fine!
But the question is, can we Han Xianggong be willing to be a filial son and grandson of Xia Zhu?
"Brother Yanguo, this time I am on the road, Xia Zhu takes his life to play with us, the younger brother can only retreat and avoid the edge for the time being, and the overall situation of the capital will be entrusted to Brother Yanguo."
It's really worthy of Han Qi, he can pick it up and put it down, and he also wrote a book the next day, saying that he was not in good health, and asked to go out of Xiangzhou. Zhao Zhen didn't allow it, so Han Qi connected to the nine tables, each more earnest, and Zhao Zhen had no choice but to nod.
So far, the two governments have been public, and there are four shortages, and the Great Song Dynasty Hall is another fierce competition.
In the end, Wen Yanbo was summoned to the capital, added the same Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi, worshiped as a scholar of Zhaowenguan, supervised the history of the country, and became the prime minister.
And the governor Fu Bi was promoted to the rank of scholar of Jixian Hall and became the second minister. He is also the iconic figure with the highest position and the heaviest power among the princes of Qingli.
In addition, the privy envoy of Xifu accidentally fell into the hands of Pang Xianggong, don't be misled by the novel, Pang Xianggong is an authentic Qing official, his deputy is Wang Gongchen, this is very interesting, he was dismissed for opposing the Qingli New Deal, and later tried his best to prevent Xia Zhu from serving as the privy envoy.
In this way, with the arrival of all the prime ministers, a new page was opened in the court of the Great Song Dynasty, but only they knew how difficult this page was......
