July 19, heavy rain.

It was already late at night, and although the light in Xu Wei's study was still on, it was a little dim. Zhu Jilan took the cover, picked out the candle wick, and asked, "There isn't much for dinner, I'll go and make a bowl of dumplings?" ”

Xu Wei was closing the window and said casually: "No need, you go to sleep first." Zhu Jilan listened, checked the things on the bookcase again, and confirmed that the ink had been polished, the tea had been brewed, and the pen on the pen holder was also the one Xu Wei used the most, so he left. She had just walked to the door, and after hearing it, she said, "Don't worry, I haven't experienced any storms?" ”

Ji Lan answered, stepped out of the threshold, and closed the door for him. As soon as she turned around, she suddenly felt a light in her eyes, and then a thunderbolt exploded on the top, which really scared her.

Xu Wei sat down after walking back to the bookcase, spread out a piece of white paper, pressed it with a paperweight, took the brush on the pen holder and held it in his hand, and did not move for a while. He has been in the office since he entered the office, and he did not write a lot of books, but at first he dictated it himself and asked the clerks in the army to write on his behalf. Later, I also learned to write by myself, because the official is a big one, and many affairs involve confidentiality, so don't fake others. After so many years, a well-educated person doesn't dare to be a person, but it's still okay to be coarse and ink.

This book alone must not be sloppy, and it is not necessary to consider every word, but it must be written reasonably and reasonably without being pretentious. After thinking about it again and again, he dipped it in ink, lifted his sleeves, and wrote on the paper, "It has been more than 20 years since the ministers announced and the matter of King Suqin. Lai Daojun, Taishang, Emperor Xian and His Majesty's mighty spirit, the loyalty and courage of the soldiers, repeatedly broke the stubborn enemy, and expelled the ugly ......"

When writing a recital, this Wenchen must quote the scriptures, and he must quote two sentences from the works of the ancient sages at the beginning, otherwise he will not be able to show his talent. But Xu Wei is a military minister, of course there is no need for this, even any quotations and classics are exempted, and he talks directly. Even the literary style can be ignored, even if it is written in the vernacular, as long as it can express the meaning clearly. Left and right, no one will criticize a person who raised an army before the weak crown is too straightforward.

"Now, the Jurchen number has changed greatly, and the gold lord has not won the country properly, and he is too busy to take care of himself, let alone invade the south? The Khitan returned to the east, aiming to restore the country, and if the dynasty did not commit its taboos, it should be safe. The world is gradually becoming peaceful. The minister has served the field for many years, and he has not been on the throne in the past, and he is always on the front line, although he has been injured by more than ten, he is also the duty of the minister. When I was embarrassed and embarrassed as a teenager, I recently had a recurrence of old wounds, so that I was slow to walk, and it was also inconvenient to lift a pen and a hand. The doctor said that it is advisable to abandon mundane affairs and concentrate on meditation. After thinking about it again and again, His Majesty Fu begged his ministers to release all their dispatches in order to nourish their crippled bodies. In all the affairs of the Propaganda and Fu Division, there should be no hindrance to the acting staff of the Xuanfu Judge and the Staff Counselor. The minister has received the grace of the country, and now he is invited to go, not unwilling to be driven, but it is really not good. If the lowly body recovers a little on a different day, Your Majesty will have a place to use his ministers, and he will always be able to do it since he was in charge. The above is merely heard, but His Majesty listens to it. ”

"Taiwei, the prince of Tianshui County, the envoy of Sichuan and Shaanxi Xuanfu, the third year of Jing'an, July 19."

After finishing it in one go, Xu Wei put down the pen, looked at it carefully, and thought that there was nothing wrong with it, so he dried the ink and put it in the cover. Hold it in your hands and think about it.

Once this recital arrives at the court, it will cause a shock, which is almost certain. But whether the emperor and those in the court will approve it, it is difficult to say. Admittedly, they all want to get themselves down, but never in this way. Perhaps, they will think that they are playing tricks, and use this to blackmail, regardless of him, once again, I will play again.

Just as he was thinking, the window creaked in the wind. Xu Wei's heart tightened for no reason, and he faintly felt a little uneasy, not for himself, but for his two brothers. His "elder brother" Xu Si was relieved of the dispatch of the deputy envoy of the imperial camp, and now he is hanging on the palace observation position, his niece is not in a good situation in the palace, and his sister-in-law's body has been poor recently, and it is not easy to live in the future.

But even more sad should be Xu Liu. Such a proud person, the prime minister monopolizes the government and the world, and in the blink of an eye, he went from the high second minister to Quanzhou to be a governor...... For example, Xu Wei is now, although he has taken away the prince, but in the end he is still the envoy of Sichuan and Shaanxi, if he is asked to be a governor, he will definitely jump and scold his mother. Therefore, he would rather resign directly than wait for someone to do it step by step.

Worry is worry, but now that he is in Sichuan and Shaanxi, he has more than enough heart but not enough strength, and now he can only take care of himself before he can worry about others.

After thinking for a while, he got up and blew out the lights, and the room fell into darkness. When I opened the door, it was raining heavily.

Because Zijin Hu was removed from the title of "Privy Council Officer", the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Division submitted a letter to the Central Committee that the Privy Council could no longer use the green and red cards of the Privy Council, so his recital was not sent to Xing until early August. Coincidentally, the time when he presented the book to the palace happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15. According to the rules, when the book arrives, it will be sent to the department for safekeeping, or the next day, and then presented to the prime minister or the emperor on a holiday. However, during the reign of the first emperor Suzong Zhao Chen, there were regulations that the urgent items of several major Xuanfu Divisions would go straight to Zhongshu regardless of time.

When his book was sent to the Chinese book, the prime minister participated in politics, and the subordinates all went home for the holiday, leaving only such as the Chinese scholar and the intellectual system in the Chinese book, in case the emperor had something to summon. Xu Xuanfu's recital was delivered, and the Chinese scholar took it, and at first glance, it was a direct recital to the emperor, not an official document in the text. I didn't dare to open it, thinking that today's festival, no matter what urgency, I had to wait until tomorrow. I plan to leave Xu Wei's book first, that Zhizhi is a person who knows things, and he has a certain understanding of the recent inside story of the imperial court, and when he saw that it was Xu Wei's book, he persuaded him to send it to the palace immediately. When the scholars heard this, they thought about it and sent them to the forbidden middle school.

Shangshu's right servant shot and Pingzhang military affairs, Qin Hui's official residence.

Qin Huizhi's market in the DPRK and China is bullish, which can be said to be one person's victory, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven. His mansion is also gradually becoming lively, especially during today's Mid-Autumn Festival, the people who come to celebrate the festival and give gifts will not step through the threshold, but they will keep the disciples busy enough. It's helpless, our prime minister was promoted to the second minister, and when he came to power, he said that King Lin Zheyan should also give three points of courtesy, not to mention these court officials?

As soon as Wei Shixun was sent away, he saw a car coming quickly, thinking that it was another official, but he saw at a glance that this was a vehicle in the palace, and he didn't go to greet him, so he was busy reporting to the palace.

The car stopped directly at the gate, the curtain was lifted, and the inner province knew that Shen Xue almost jumped off, how can you say that his small body has such work? As soon as he landed, he stumbled, and with a sigh, he was so panicked that the little yellow door that came with him grabbed it and asked repeatedly.

"Hugh! Walk! Shen Xue endured the pain, his face was distorted, and with the support of his entourage, he limped inside. Entering the gate, before the shadow wall had passed, Qin Hui came out.

Seeing Shen Xue like this, he asked in surprise: "Shen Duzhi, this is, what's wrong?" ”

"It's unlucky! Just come to your door! Shen Xue said with a bitter face.

Qin Hui heard it inexplicably, what does this matter to me? You have stumbled in front of my door, should you be responsible for me? It's just that Shen Xue is a celebrity in front of the emperor and queen, he didn't dare to offend, he personally stretched out his hand to help, and said: "Hurry up and sit in the hall, see if you need to ......"

"No, no, no! Qin Xiang, hurry up, summoned by the Holy Lord! Shen Ze flicked his sleeves and urged.

"Holy? What's important? Qin Hui asked.

"Don't ask so much! Hurry up and follow me! The cars are all ready outside! Shen Ze was a little impatient.

Qin Hui had just returned to the house not long ago, and the official uniform had just been taken off, seeing Shen Ze's appearance, he knew that there must be something urgent, so he said: "I will sit in the hall for a while, I will change my clothes, and I will come in a moment!" ”

"Hey!" Shen Ze sighed impatiently, waved his hand, and motioned for the other party to go quickly. The entourage helped him to sit down in the hall, and he didn't have time to look at his feet, so he waved his hand vigorously, "You guys also hurry up, no one has gone to the Chen Counselor's Office yet, oops!" After the retinue left, he felt more and more pain in his feet, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed. This Xu Jiu, the big festival is not comfortable!

But what exactly did he say? Rush the official family into that way? I didn't let myself read the book, so I threw him out of the palace, and asked him to ask Zai to go to the forbidden middle school to discuss matters quickly. Shouldn't it be...... No, if he really wants to have a different heart, how can he still go to the book? What's that?

Thinking about it, I didn't know the essentials, but why didn't Qin Hui come out yet? His heart became more and more anxious, and he shouted in the hall: "Go and urge your husband, don't delay the big thing!" ”

"You know how to be restless, what's the important thing about this?" Qin Hui turned out from behind, holding his head in his hand.

When Shen Xue saw it, he stood up forcefully, and waved his hand out vigorously as if splashing water: "Don't rub it, let's go!" Qin Hui saw that he was really anxious, and strode out, and when Shen Xue saw it, he shouted in a sharp voice, "You are leaving, what should I do!" Qin Huizhi was so panicked that he turned back and carried him out.

After getting in the car and driving towards the palace, Qin Huixin said that he was not in a hurry now, he should tell me what was going on, right? As a result, I didn't know what to ask, but I only said that it was Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Xu Xuanfu took care of it.

Hearing this, Qin Hui's heart suddenly jumped with a "knock"! What's going on? What did Xu Wei say, making the official family anxious like this? He couldn't help but panic, just because he suppressed the Xu family, and he led the package of things against Xu Wei. It's done, and he naturally has the greatest credit, but if he messes up, he has to carry the black pot! What does this Purple Golden Tiger want to do?

All the way to the forbidden middle school, the palace inside, who dares to ride a horse? So he got out of the car and walked, and he had to hold Shen Ze, and buried his head and went to the "Qinzheng Hall". Halfway through, Fan Tong, the governor of the political affairs, came up and asked with a breath, "What's wrong?" In a hurry? Shen Duzhi, what are you doing? Fell? ”

Shen Xue ignored him, just blindly shook his head forward, signaling to hurry up. Seeing that Qin Hui was struggling, Fan Tong took a hand, the two prime ministers and deputy prime ministers, and a eunuch, how funny do you say this scene is.

When they arrived at Qinzheng Hall, Shen Xue let the two of them let go, wiped a few handfuls of sweat indiscriminately, limped in to make a report, and then limped back to announce that the two of them were promoted.

In the hall, Zhe Yanzhi was already sitting with a look on his face, the emperor drooped his head, as if the frost had hit, these two went in, and they were saluting, Zhao Jin said impatiently: "That's it, sit down!" ”

The second minister thanked him and sat down opposite King Lin. The three of them exchanged glances with each other, and they didn't know what was going on, when the governor Chen Kangbo had not arrived, the emperor couldn't wait, he raised a notebook in his hand and shook it vigorously, and said: "Xu Wei's book, just arrived!" What did I say? It's better to endure than to be in a hurry and startle the snake! How about now? Woe to you! I remind you again and again, Xu Xu Tuzhi, Xu Xu Tuzhi, how is the result? took away the prince of the family, and immediately let Liu Guangshi serve as the judge of Xuanfu, this, this, this is too much deception! ”

He split his head and gave a training, and he didn't know who he was targeting, but he sprayed the prime ministers so much that they couldn't find the north! And listening to the words of the official, which end of the day are you standing? What does it mean to "deceive people too much", which of our cases and which ones have not been discussed with His Majesty?

Fortunately, these ministers all knew what the emperor was, and they were not surprised, so he asked stubbornly: "Holy Lord, I don't know what Xu Wei played?" ”

Zhao Jin vented, and barely got out of the anger that was depressed in his heart because of his doubts, and when he saw the prime minister asking, he sighed and handed over the notebook. Shen Zeyi limped forward to take it, and Zhao Jin saw this and said, "What about you?" ”

"The villain accidentally sprained himself for a while, and it doesn't matter." Shen Xue bowed down and answered, and then handed over Xu Wei's performance to Zhe Yanzhi.

King Lin took it with both hands and unfolded it to see. At the beginning, I saw Xu Wei reminiscing about his 20-year anti-gold career, but he didn't say it, and later, I saw him analyze the situation today, so I took it a little seriously. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words turned around, King Lin's eyebrows twisted suddenly, and he couldn't stretch anymore, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

After he finished looking, Chen Kangbo arrived, finished saluting, sat down under him, and handed it to him casually. Chen Shenzheng took it and looked at it, but did not see any reaction, and asked Neishì to hand it over to Qin Hui.

Qin Hui waited anxiously, and almost grabbed it, because he was in a hurry, he couldn't take a closer look, and picked up the important ones. Xu Wei's handwriting is scribbled, if you are not careful, you really can't read it. But he suffered him, his eyes widened and he recognized it word by word, and when he saw the sentence "the quasi-minister unloads all the sends", he trembled. After reading it, he was stunned, but he forgot to transfer it to Fan Tong, and only reminded him that the other party pretended to cough and reminded him.

"Xu Wei resigns, what can I do?" Zhao Jin's gaze swept over the face of the chief minister. In response, all of them bowed their heads and were silent.

It's not that the prime ministers didn't have an idea, it's just that it came too suddenly, without the slightest warning. But a normal person will think that even if Xu Wei knows the intentions of the imperial court, he must do everything possible to stop it, which is good, and people are also single, as if they know that they want to rectify him, so they simply ask for resignation, and resign cleanly, all positions are gone, and they have to recuperate.

This was originally the ultimate goal of everyone in the "Qinzheng Hall", but now they only need to reply one sentence, and it's over. But the question is, who dares to answer this sentence? Xu Wei has been in Shaanxi for 20 years, Sichuan and Shaanxi have maintained a relatively "independent" state for more than ten years, and the Shenwu Right Army has a great relationship with Xu Wei.

"Why don't you say anything? You came up with the idea, now that Xu Wei is leaving, what should I do? To be accurate or not to be allowed? Zhao Jin asked.

Zhi Yan thought for a moment and replied, "Holy Lord, I can't approve him right now. With Xu Wei's power and prestige in Sichuan and Shaanxi, no one can replace him for a while. If he leaves, Sichuan and Shaanxi are afraid of accidents, especially Shaanxi. According to the minister's material, Xu Wei didn't really want to resign, but he saw the intention of the court, and he used retreat as advance and threatened him with resignation. Now Sichuan and Shaanxi are still inseparable from him, so it is only appropriate to forbear and appease him for the time being. ”

"Yes, the saint should be kind to appease, slow down his heart, as long as he stabilizes him, Sichuan and Shaanxi are not monolithic, slowly penetrating, sooner or later there will be a day when he will be uprooted." Fan Tong also seconded the proposal, paused for a moment, and added, "I think it was the seizure of the prince and Taiwei Liu that alarmed him, so he took revenge." The minister thought that it was better to restore his king, so as not to cause extraneous branches. ”

It was Qin Hui's idea to take away Xu Wei's title of "King of Taiyuan County", and now that Fan Tong is saying this, it is aimed at him, how can he sit still? But this matter was too big, and in a hurry, he was unwilling to open his mouth, so he remained silent, as if he had admitted Fan Tong's accusation.

Seeing this, Zhao Jin said with some reproach: "Qin Qing, when you cut Prince Xu Wei the day before yesterday, you said that it would be fine. Nowadays......"

"Please forgive your sins." Qin Hui got up and bowed his head.

Zhao Jin wanted to hear this, and sighed: "I don't want to hold anyone responsible, now that the matter is out, I have to come up with a way." Xu Wei said that he was sick and resigned, King Lin couldn't say, what is your opinion? ”

"The minister also thinks that if Xu Wei is allowed to leave his post at this moment, Sichuan and Shaanxi are afraid of accidents." Qin Hui said.

"That's it, since it's not allowed. So how can I appease him? Zhao Jin asked again.

Qin Hui didn't think twice: "Since he threatens the court with his resignation, if the court wants to appease him, it can only do what he wants." ”

Hearing this, Zhi Yanzhi questioned: "What Xu Wei wishes must be to restore the prince of his county, transfer Liu Guangshi, and restore the previous situation." Can this be as he wishes? ”

Qin Hui seemed a little passive, and couldn't answer for a while. Zhao Jin was irritable and began to smuggle: "If you knew today's events, you shouldn't have easily moved your mind in the first place. If the imperial court did not reprimand, cut the lord, did not take power, and did not hinder, Xu Wei would still be at ease as his governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, how could these things happen? ”

The ministers muttered in their hearts, what is this called? Isn't this a taboo for medical treatment?

Before it was over, Zhao Jin said again: "Even, Xu Liang should not have been allowed to resign in the first place." It's good now, Xu Wei is like his cousin, and he asks for dismissal. I think I knew that the imperial court was going to be rectified, and Suo Xìng broke it himself! Xu Liang is out of the court, I still have you available, if Xu Wei leaves, who can lead the Western Division for me? Alas, more is better than less, this ...... Let's go, since it's not allowed, you come up with a specific measure, how to appease him? There is no problem with the resumption of the prince, is it necessary to transfer Liu Guangshi? Can this disposal power be returned to him? ”

"Holy Lord, this must not be!"
