No. 593 Gong Ding 2 No. 1

The puppet was furious and bled five steps.

If anyone wants to stand up against it at this time, it will not end well.

Therefore, the treacherous and cunning six prime ministers and the privy envoy Han Zhongyan did not stand up to express their position, and they were also waiting for Cai Dao's next step.

"Hehe, Lord Yang Mansion Yin, do you want to ask Poor Dao, where did you have such the audacity to dare to use soldiers in the palace to imprison my Great Song Dynasty's wealth minister, right?" Cai Dao looked at Yang Wei playfully and asked with a smile.

"Don't dare! However, Daoist Cai, there must be a reason why you do this! Yang Wei still asked with some reluctance.

However, this time, Cai Dao did not directly answer Yang Wei's question, but arched his hand to the people in the hall and said, "Everyone, since the first emperor has died, this is an irreparable fact. Then, the throne can't be empty, the prince Zhao Ban is the only bloodline of the first emperor, and he will inherit the throne, presumably everyone sitting here will not object! ”

"That's right, the old minister agrees with this." As soon as Cai Dao's words were finished, Han Zhongyan immediately stood up and said that he was worthy of being Han Qi's son, and he had always been unwilling to be left behind in this regard.

“……”

"We agree with that!" Everyone replied in the affirmative.

"Okay, Poor Dao and you will wait here for an hour, and when the Queen Mother and the prince rest for a while, they will immediately promote this matter." Speaking of this, Cai Dao deliberately paused and looked at everyone's expressions, they were all old fritters, and he would definitely not expose his mood in his expressions, and he continued: "Back to the question of Yang Fu Yin just now, since the successor has been decided, and Empress Liu is rebellious, then the question arises again, who should the position of the Queen Mother be given?" Yang Fuyin, what do you say? ”

"Shhh Cai Dao's question has actually pointed out the reason why he privately used troops to detain Zhang Dun and torture him.

Empress Liu's rebellion is a fact that has been closed in the coffin, and there is nothing to say.

As for whether Zhang Dun and Xing Shu were involved, it is difficult for others to say, and before there is real evidence, these civil officials must want to protect Zhang Dun, at least to save his life.

As for the official position, Zhang Dian is fairly fair, but since he got Zhao Xu's favor, he has become domineering, and he treats everyone like his own subordinates, calling back and forth. When Han Jin was still alive, he could have been better, but since Han Jin's death, he has completely lost his scruples and began to wantonly attack officials in the reform faction who have different political views from him.

That's how Cai Jing and Zhang Shangying were forced out of Bianliang City by them.

Therefore, none of the people present had a good impression of Zhang.

Not to mention the forgiveness, the treacherous villain, since the beginning of the party struggle, the repeated rise of the court prison has been inextricably linked with him, so that he can use conspiracies and tricks to frame others, since he replaced Cai Jing as the imperial historian, his actions have intensified.

Everyone present wished that it would be far away from Xihe Road as soon as possible.

Now, with the withdrawal of the Western Xia Kingdom and the Great Song Kingdom, Xihe Road has become a more feared place than the other roads in Lingnan and the Northwest, because there are few Song people and many barbarians in these places. Moreover, the Qingqiang people of Xihe Road only surrendered on the surface, but in private they disobeyed the orders of the Great Song Kingdom. Since there is no unified leader, it is not possible for the tribe to launch a rebellion and attack the Bunker and caravan in Heehe Road.

Now the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty dare not go to Xihe Road to do business.

However, this does not include Ding Youcai's caravan, there is the prestige of the fortune boy, and no one dares to plunder his caravan. What's more, Ding Youcai has always been honest in doing business, even if he does business with foreigners, he will not deliberately deceive the other party, so his caravan has a very good reputation in the entire northwest region, and the business is also very good.

There was once a tribal chief who was not long-sighted, and he didn't believe in evil and robbed Ding Youcai's batch of goods, and the things were not worth much, but the impact was very bad. Cai Lanling was already preparing to privately send Cai Yinghua to cut off the chief's head. However, it didn't take long for the entire Qingtang region and the tribes near this tribe to unite and wipe out this tribe together.

However, when it comes to the position of the Queen Mother, everyone understands why Cai Dao detained Zhang Xuan and Xing Shu, because it was these two goods who participated in the incident after the abolition of the original time, and now Empress Liu not only lost the prince, but also took advantage of Zhao Xu's death to attempt rebellion.

Just from the perspective of Zhao Ban, the soon-to-be-succeeded prince, these two fools can't be spared.

This is the consequence of making a wrong bet.

is already in a high position, and his achievements are high, but Zhang Dunwu is not satisfied. has to participate in the affairs of the palace, in fact, this is already a taboo as a minister.

"You don't have to worry, the crown prince is still young after all, and it is bound to be temporarily governed by the two palaces. However, neither Empress Dowager Zhu nor Empress Meng are the ones who hold power, so the poor Dao will advise Empress Dowager Zhu and let the prime ministers enjoy the treatment of Han Jin. How is it? Cai Dao said with a smile.

As soon as these words were said, no one present mentioned Zhang Xuan and Xingshu, and Meng's status was also determined, she was still the queen, and when his son ascended the throne, she would be the new queen mother.

Cai Dao expressed his opinion on the handling of the guards in the palace who participated in the rebellion: "Everyone, even if you cover your ears and steal the bell, this turmoil in the palace, Empress Liu's matter is over here, and it is still not suitable to spread it." After all, there is nothing strange about His Majesty's death, Empress Liu just wants to make waves through this. All the officers involved in this matter, regardless of their official ranks, were all assigned to Huanqing Road, Master Zhang. When the time comes, he will be sentenced to death according to a crime, and his family will be confiscated into the army. As for those ordinary soldiers, they were also coerced by the officers, and their crimes were not to death, so they were all sent to Zong Ze and Zhang Shuye, and their families also went to Hebei with them. What do you think? ”

For His Holiness, this is common sense, and those Qiu Ba are not suitable to deal with them in Bianliang City, and sending officers to Huanqing Road is also a small test for Zhang Qi.

Therefore, there is no objection.

"By the way, also, please rest assured, Poor Dao will not recall Poor Dao's uncle and father to serve in the capital, please rest assured! That's all Poor Dao has to say. After speaking, Cai Dao turned his head and ordered: "Cao Hu, Di'an, Pan Xiong, you take people to dispose of those people immediately." ”

"No!" The three of them said yes and quickly left, they really didn't want to deal with these civil officials.

An hour later, Cai Dao came to the Cining Hall with other important ministers.
