In the Cuiwei Palace, Zhang Bangchang, the right monk of Xiangguo Cai Jing and the priest of the country, was persuading Zhao Ji, the son of heaven, to cancel Taixue to participate in the bow and horse competition. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

This time Cai Jing's news was a step late, he only learned that a Tai student won the first place in the semi-finals of yesterday's bow horse competition, which made Cai Jing shocked and angry, of course he knew very well that Tong Guan's purpose of pulling Taixue into the bow horse competition, didn't he just want to put his hand into Taixue?

Taixue was Cai Jing's absolute sphere of influence, he expanded Taixue, and persuaded the Son of Heaven to regard the middle school students in the upper house as being from the same Jinshi, so that the Taixue students would not only go to the state school and county to study as professors, but also serve as magistrates such as the chief county clerk, and then promote them step by step, and finally compete with the officials from the Jinshi.

It was Cai Jing's wishful thinking that made him not allow anyone to get involved in Taixue, but Tong Guan persuaded the Son of Heaven to pull Taixue into the bow and horse competition.

Since Cai Jing couldn't stop it, he used a negative response method, and only sent a few weak scholars to symbolically participate in the competition, the last Tai Bachelor's name fell to Sun Shan, and this session should have been eliminated in the first round, but Cai Jing never dreamed that the Tai Student actually won the first place in the cavalry and archery semi-finals.

Cai Jing couldn't sit still, he had to decisively stop Taixue from participating anymore, otherwise Tong Guan would find an opportunity to reach into Taixue.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has already explained the six reasons why Taixue should not participate in the bow horse competition, Taixue is a pure place to study, and should not be affected by activities such as the bow horse competition, the old minister implores His Majesty to agree to let Taixue withdraw from the competition."

"Cai Xiangguo was surprised by this!"

Tong Guan's voice came from behind, Tong Guan himself was Zhao Ji's henchman eunuch, and he had the privilege of entering the palace without reporting.

Tong Guan rushed like wind and fire, and finally stopped Cai Jing's plea at a critical moment, he stepped forward and gave Zhao Ji a deep salute, "Please forgive Your Majesty for Weichen's recklessness!" ”

Zhao Ji nodded, "Cai Xiangguo thinks that it is not a proper job for students to participate in the bow horse competition, Cai Xiangguo, I am not wrong!" ”

Cai Jing hurriedly said: "That's right! The main business of Tai students is to accept the teachings of the saints, cultivate themselves and cultivate virtues, learn the way of governing the country, and learn that if they appease the Li people, they have a business, and archery should be a matter of the army. What do you want the army to do? ”

Tong Guan smiled: "Cai Xiangguo probably doesn't know what happened today, right?" ”

Zhao Ji also became interested, and asked with a smile: "What happened today?" ”

"Your Majesty, today's Great Song Dynasty, Liao State, Western Xia, Dali, Tubo Five Kingdoms Competition Bow Horse, originally the first place was the first archer of Western Xia Sajin, that is, the son of the Western Xia general Sachen, he is strong in archery, riding ** fierce, invincible, 50,000 soldiers and people present to watch the battle were depressed, but it was a Tai student who turned the tide and defeated the Western Xia archer Sajin and regained the first place, which made tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians raise their eyebrows, and I believe that the people of the entire Bianjing will cheer for it tonight."

Zhao Ji couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and said repeatedly: "There is this kind of thing, it is actually a too student, it is really unexpected by me, what is the name of this person?" ”

"Your Majesty, this person's name is Li Yanqing, a native of Xiangzhou, who ranked first in the Xiangzhou Liberation Test last year, was recommended by Weichen, and is currently studying in Taixue."

"Li Yanqing?" Zhao Ji seemed to feel that this name was a little familiar, where had he heard of it, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Tong Guan said to Cai Jing again: "Protecting the family and defending the country and maintaining the glory of the Great Song Dynasty is not only a matter for soldiers, but also a matter for every citizen of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Cai Jing was about to refute, but Tong Guan didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "If you don't have the ability, then Taixue can not participate in the bow and horse competition, but Taixue obviously has this ability, why doesn't he want to serve the country and do his meager help to maintain the glory of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Tong Guan's last two sentences were righteous and awe-inspiring, making Cai Jing speechless, at this time Zhao Ji made a round and said: "Tomorrow the bow horse competition will end, anyway, there are three years left next time, Cai Qing doesn't need to worry, we will discuss this matter calmly in the future, let's let this bow horse competition end successfully!" ”

Cai Jing was helpless, so he had to bow down and salute, "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

"Cai Qing and Zhang Youcheng go first! I have to discuss something else with Captain Tong. ”

"Wechen retires!"

Cai Jing and Zhang Bangchang retreated, and Zhao Ji took a few steps with his hands in his hands, and then said to Tong Guan: "The detailed report on Yang Jian's death has come out, as Aiqing said, it is indeed difficult to judge the real cause of his death, whether he was plotted by someone, or died at the hands of Liangshan bandits?" Wang Yushi can't draw conclusions, but Xiang Du commanded Wang Jian's poor protection, resulting in a defensive hole in Yang Jian's guards, he has direct responsibility, I have already dismissed Wang Jian from his post and held him accountable, in addition, I am ready to exterminate the Liangshan bandits after the beginning of spring next year, I don't know who Aiqing thinks is more appropriate? ”

Tong Guan didn't expect the Son of Heaven to ask himself, did he want to let him lead the troops to exterminate Liangshan?

He said cautiously: "Weichen is willing to share your Majesty's worries!" ”

Zhao Ji shook his head, "I didn't let you go, you have to deal with Fang La with all your might, I asked you to recommend a competent person." ”

Tong Guan was overjoyed, this kind of opportunity is generally to recommend a confidant of his own, or to recommend a person he hates, he pondered for a moment, decided to adopt the latter, and said: "Although the deputy commander of the palace, Gao Yu, is in a high position in the army, he lacks actual combat merits, and his authority in the army is not good, and the Liangshan bandits are a rabble, but there are only thousands of people, so that the high commander can lead 30,000 forbidden troops to sweep up, and Wei Chen believes that he will not disappoint His Majesty." ”

Tong Guan's recommendation is in line with Zhao Ji's heart, and Gao Yu is also his confidant, so of course this opportunity for meritorious service must be reserved for his henchmen. ”

"What Aiqing said is exactly what I want, Gao Yu is indeed very suitable, I will let Gao Yu prepare first!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

At this time, Zhao Ji smiled again: "Several of my emperors and princes want to go to see the archery and horse competition, you prepare tomorrow, and I will also attend the last competition tomorrow!" ”

.......

Cai Jing came out of Yanfu Palace in frustration, and Zhang Bangchang whispered beside him: "Or we can get this Li Yanqing rid of Taixue, what he did has nothing to do with Taixue." ”

Cai Jing glared at him hatefully, "I think you are confused, if you could be fired, I would have been fired a long time ago, do you still need to say it?" Now that the whole capital knows that he is a student, you have expelled him, how can you explain to the Son of Heaven? I'm afraid that Tong Guan will seize your handle and impeach you, saying that you use public power for private purposes, do you still want to be a scholar? ”

Cai Jing is experienced, Zhang Bangchang is his confidant, holding the three heavy powers of the Ministry of Household Rites, Tong Guan really wants to meddle in Taixue, he can still deal with it calmly, but if Tong Guan seizes the opportunity to impeach Zhang Bangchang, that is, he picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon, which is more important, Cai Jing can carry it clearly.

Zhang Bangchang didn't dare to say anything, Cai Jing pondered for a moment and said: "I obviously explained that I arranged for lunge students to participate in the bow horse competition, how could there be a horse riding and archery student to participate in the bow horse competition?" It shows that Tong Guan also arranged someone in Taixue, you go to check who arranged it? ”

Zhang Bangchang smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, there is no need to check, the bow horse competition is arranged by Xuelu Sun Li, he is a fellow villager of Tong Guan, and he should have been bought by Tong Guan." ”

"Damn bastard!"

Cai Jing scolded, and said to Zhang Bangchang: "It seems that the Guozijian is also in charge of Taixue is very ineffective, and a Taixue Xuezheng must be appointed, you pay attention to it and see who is more suitable, although it is arranged." ”

"Xiaguan understands."

Zhang Bangchang said yes and hurriedly left, and Cai Jing shouted to the side: "What are you hiding?" I've seen you. ”

A young guard turned out from behind the big pillar, it was Cai Jing's fourth grandson Cai Zheng, Cai Zheng was only twenty years old, he had just entered the palace as a guard for two years, he trembled forward and knelt down and said: "Grandson see grandfather!" ”

Cai Jing saw that he had changed into civilian clothes and seemed to be about to go out, so he asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Cai Zheng swallowed: "My grandson wants to go out and find a friend to drink!" ”

Cai Jing saw his eyes flickering, obviously not telling the truth, Cai Jing was in a bad mood today, and now even his grandson was going to deceive him, Cai Jing suddenly said angrily: "Brute, you even dare to deceive me? ”

Cai Zheng saw that his grandfather was furious, so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, "Grandfather is angry!" Calm your anger! ”

"What the hell do you want to do? Say! ”

Cai Zheng didn't dare to hide it anymore, so he had to whisper: "Xiang Cong issued a heroic order, asking everyone to go to the alum tower for a party at night, it seems that there is something important, and my grandson wants to go and see it." ”

The so-called heroic order is a general order for a group of Yanai Party in Beijing to convene their accomplices, saying that there is something important, Cai Zheng did not join the Yanai Party, but Cai Jing encouraged him to join and establish a good relationship with the children of the powerful.

"What happened?" Cai Jing asked casually.

"Sun Er doesn't know very well, I heard that it was a student who ruined the Xiang family's business, and Xiang Cong wanted to teach this person a lesson."

Cai Jing's heart jumped, the three words 'too student' were too sensitive for him at this time, and he hurriedly asked, "What is the name of the student?" ”

"It seems that the surname is Li, and the grandson can't remember the name of the grandson who participated in the bow horse competition."

"Is it Li Yanqing?"

"That's right, that's the name, Li Yanqing."

Cai Jing's mind turned, and he immediately understood that it must be Li Yanqing's sudden rise that affected the business of Xiangjiaguanpu Shop, and he secretly rejoiced, "God really helps me!" ”

Cai Jing immediately pulled Cai Zheng aside and whispered a few words to him.

Cai Zheng nodded again and again, "Grandson understands!" ”
