Left and right stepped forward to fight, the sound crackled, Zhao Ji has been in the court so far, this is the first time that this kind of beating in the hall has happened.

Fang La, who was dressed in a dragon robe, was pressed to his knees by several military men, his cheeks were already red and swollen, and his teeth fell all over the ground. The person who can be an errand by Zhao Ji's side must have some means.

"How can this be reasonable, there are such vain people in the world, stirring up chaos in the world for their own selfishness, spending the country's money and food, sacrificing innocent lives, don't you hear of the Great Song Dynasty, prestige outside, kindness to the people, and prosperity in the world, how can you allow such a small night to make trouble." Zhao Ji is a scholar, a literati with noble sentiments, even if he is angry, the words he says are still reasonable.

Tong Guan squinted and looked at it for a long time, and knew that it was almost there, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, such a person who has brought disaster to the country and the people, according to the opinion of the ministers, it is appropriate to show the public the head of the owl to warn the world." ”

Zhao Ji seemed to be waiting for this sentence, although Zhao Ji has always behaved personaly, when Fang La spoke just now, Zhao Ji was a little weak in his heart for no reason, and when he heard Tong Guan's words at this time, he immediately continued: "Quasi-play, those who bring disaster to the country and the people, people and gods are angry." and Chai Jin, who rebelled in Liangshan, was shown to the public together! ”

Chai Jin was really a disaster this time, Zhao Ji had already forgotten the remnants of the former dynasty who were imprisoned in the prison, and the appearance of Fang La at this time made Zhao Ji feel uneasy, and in anger, Chai Jin, who was supposed to be released, was also punished by death.

Hearing this, Wang Hao spoke: "Your Majesty Shengming, repay grievances directly, and the way of a saint is also." The law of the country is straight, and Your Majesty is just! ”

Tong Guan waved his hand and motioned to a few former soldiers to take this party down, and this farce was over.

Zhao Ji calmed down a little, looked at the coiling dragon golden crown above Anji, and glanced at the palm-sized big seal again, and his heart slowly calmed down. opened his mouth and said: "The Privy Council envoy Tong Guan, the four states envoy Zheng Zhi, and the bandits are pacified." Outstanding meritorious, Wang Qing, tell me how to reward it! ”

Hearing this, Wang Hao stepped forward and replied: "Captain Tong has always been brilliant in battle, he is the talent of my Great Song Dynasty Dongliang, which is rare in a hundred years, and this time he has made new contributions. ”

Taishi, Taifu, Taibao. As the third duke, it is not a real position, but the highest nominal title for a courtier. The Great Song Dynasty rewarded titles as before, and they could not be hereditary.

Zhao Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Okay, quasi-play." How should Zheng Zhi be rewarded? ”

Zhao Ji asked again, Wang Hao lowered his head and pretended to think about it, and replied: "Zheng Zhi followed Captain Tong to fight on the battlefield and serve the country. ”

Zhao Ji was stunned when he heard this, what is the position of Dr. Zhongfeng? It's just a civil official rank under the fourth grade. Zheng Zhi is already a middle-class doctor from the fourth grade, and now he is a middle-aged doctor under the fourth grade, and this reward is too small. is a person who has no merit, and he can be promoted like this after two years of qualifications.

"Wang Qing, Zheng Zhi died on the battlefield for the country, it seems... Zhao Ji opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty, Zheng Zhi's achievements in suppressing thieves are obvious to all, but Zheng Zhinian is less than thirty years old, and this year Shandong has been promoted to three levels in a row, ranking in the fourth grade, and there is also the power of the land of the four states. With such a speed of promotion, the government and the opposition have already complained a lot. In the opinion of the minister, it would be appropriate to give Zheng Jingluo a record of his recent meritorious achievements, and if he has meritorious deeds in the future, he will be rewarded together. Wang replied.

Wang Hao's words are not unreasonable, Zheng Zhi has been promoted from a capital to a fourth-grade member in a few years, and the speed is really amazing. Many people know that Zheng Zhi was originally a Weizhou butcher, and it is inevitable that those serious scholars will criticize him behind his back, not only criticizing Zheng Zhi for taking shit luck, but also talking about Cai Jingtong's disaster to the country and the people. If even a butcher can be a four-grade official, what is the point of these scholars who have been in the cold for ten years to study?

Tong Guan frowned when he heard this, and asked: "Wang Xianggong, there is also a matter of being promoted to the eighth level above the court, why are there still people who are not used to being promoted to three levels in a row?" ”

Tong Guan's words are straightforward, and Wang Huang has done ruthlessly, and now Tong Guan is already a giant in the court, where can I see this Wang Huang's face. If Cai Jing is in the phase, Tong Guan naturally has a good quotient and good quantity. Wang Huang really doesn't fall into the eyes of Tong Guan.

As soon as Tong Guan's words came out, most of the princes in the court were really unhappy. Most of the people who can stand in the forefront of the court are gray-haired, but the one who stands at the forefront is a black-haired person who has been promoted to eight levels in a row, how to teach people to be convinced.

It was Tong Guan's words that made Zhao Ji a little embarrassed, after all, Zhao Ji did this thing, and he only heard Zhao Ji say: "Tong Guan, meritorious service naturally needs to be rewarded." Wang Qing is not unreasonable, Zheng Zhi is too young, and the credit will naturally not be forgotten, but he can't be promoted twice in a short period of time. ”

Zhao Ji said a word, and expressed his attitude towards Tong Guan and Wang Hao clearly. Most of the people who call Tong Guan are called by his name, and Wang Huang is called Wang Qing. It's not that this Wang Huang has a higher status in Zhao Ji's heart.

But there is a fundamental difference in the identities of the two, the eunuch, the emperor's personal servant, is the kind of private slave who beats and punishes, Tong Guan can get such authority now, and it is all thanks to such a eunuch identity.

To put it bluntly, Tong Guan is Zhao Ji's private property, which is also the basic reason why Zhao Ji favors eunuchs. Who is Wang Huang? Wang Huang is the head of the court scholars, is the representative of the world's corporal doctors, in the Great Song Dynasty with the scholars, in a sense, Wang Huang is with Zhao Ji in the world. Respecting Wang Huang means respecting the world's corporal doctors.

As for whether the scholars in the world are willing to be represented by Wang Huang, that is another matter.

Tong Guan listened to the words, bowed his head and was silent, but there was a lot of hatred in his heart. Zheng Zhi has no room to speak, and the Great Song Dynasty only has modest people, and there are no officials for themselves. At this time, it can only be endured in silence.

Tong Guan returned to his position after giving up his hand, and a sharp look fell on Wang Huang. Wang Hao seemed to be aware, and turned his head to look at Tong Guan, but he was not weak-hearted, but nodded with a smile on his face.

Probably Wang Hao thought that he had won the position of Taishi for Tong Guan, and the title of Duke of Chu State, which was already a favor to Tong Guan.

Above the court, it seems that with Tong Guan's sharp eyes, there is already an undercurrent.

Master Li took Xiaochan in a carriage all the way to Tong Guan's mansion, and he was full of excitement in his heart, although the separation time was not long, less than two months, but Zheng Zhi went into battle to fight, and Master Li was even more worried every day. At this time, Zheng Zhi returned victorious, which shows that Master Li is happy in his heart.

When the carriage arrived at the door of the Detongguan Mansion, Xiaochan got out of the carriage first, and then helped Master Li to get out of the carriage.

The two of them walked towards the door of the house.

A voice suddenly came from behind him: "Is it everyone Li in front of the head?" ”

Master Li turned his head to see a Confucian with a somewhat black and yellow complexion, and a few subordinates on the left and right, and also wore an official uniform, which looked really familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, and he was embarrassed to slack off when he saw this official uniform, and asked: "I don't know which minister is in front of him." ”

"Everyone Li, why don't you remember me, I'm Xu Shida, I still remember the Jinshi and the first, and I often talked to everyone in the alum building." This person turned out to be Xu Shida.

It is the person who has just entered the rank and the first, wants to be happy with Master Li, and can't get along with Zheng Zhi in front of Master Li, and is also the person who was provoked by Zheng Zhi to serve in Lingzhou City in the northwest.

Master Li had already remembered at this time, Xu Shida's change was really not small, his face was dusty, his face was not white, but a little black and yellow, which showed how difficult the land of wind and sand in the northwest was.

"It turned out to be Xu Gongzi, I haven't seen you for two or three years, everything is okay?" Master Li said politely.

When Xu Shida saw that Master Li recognized him, he immediately smiled and said busily: "Everything is fine, I don't know how everyone is doing lately?" ”

Seeing Xu Shida's face dusty and wearing an official uniform, Master Li guessed that he might have just entered Beijing, so he said: "Gongzi has been an official in the frontier for a few years, and it is really hard. If Zhou Gongzi knew that you were back, he would be overjoyed. The slave family still has important things to do today, and they will talk about it again in the future. ”

Master Li only thought that Zheng Zhi was coming back, so he had to hurry back to dress up and wait for Zheng Zhi. So I don't want to talk to a man at this door, and I want to leave after a few polite times.

Xu Shida didn't think much about it, and when he heard Master Li praise himself, his heart was like honey. When I was angry, I invited myself to the Northwest Frontier as an official, wasn't it just for the person in front of me. Hurriedly asked: "Everyone arrived at the door of the Mansion of Taiwei Detong at this time, I don't know what it is?" ”

Master Li's body had already turned halfway, and he was embarrassed to go in directly, and replied: "The slave family husband returned triumphantly today, and the slave family has been living in the Taiwei mansion and is about to go back to wait for the husband to return." If Xu Gongzi has something important, he will be busy first, and he will meet again when he has a fate. ”

Xu Shida just entered all the way from the northwest to Bianliang, and just entered the inner city of Bianliang, but he accidentally ran into Master Li, and he didn't think much about it, but when he heard Master Li's words, a Zheng Zhi immediately popped up in his mind, and he couldn't help but be a little unhappy. replied: "The Li family is a rare talented woman in the world, and it is a pity that they do not want to marry in the door of the butcher." How... ”

Xu Shida was only halfway through his words, and he had already angered Master Li, only to see Master Li say angrily: "The son is self-respecting, how can a person who reads speak like this." Leave. ”

After speaking, Master Li turned around and left, where could anyone bear to say this about his husband.

Xu Shida's words were not unintentional. but he is self-righteous, and he lives others with himself. After serving in the northwest for a few years, although I have heard a lot about the legend of Zheng Zhi, I also know Zheng Zhi's background, and even went to the champion bridge where Zheng Zhi sells meat. I only thought that Master Li married Zheng Zhi, but he was forced to be helpless, and he was even more humiliated in his heart, and he wanted to say a few words to explain, but he didn't want to anger Master Li with a word.

Xu Shida turned around when he saw Master Li's anger, hurriedly stepped forward to chase a few steps, and said: "Everyone Li, I have no mouth to hide, and I hope to forgive me if I offend." ”

Master Li was still willing to pay attention to it, and went straight to the door of the mansion. Xu Shida still wanted to explain a few sentences, and then to comfort Master Li's humiliated heart, but two guards at the door stepped forward to stop him.

Xu Shida was blocked by two military men, and when he saw Master Li walking away from the door, he said angrily: "How dare you stop this official." ”

When a military man heard this, he also said angrily: "Where did you come from to be idle, and you don't look at what kind of place this is, if you dare to go wild, you will be beaten up." ”

The military man was about to fight, and he really scared Xu Shida into taking two steps back, and he couldn't remember where this was, so he had to turn his head stupidly. After walking a few steps and looking back, he muttered: "A eunuch can also gain power, and it makes sense to be humiliated after studying hard for ten years." ”

Xu Shida scolded as he walked, and he couldn't be happy in his heart. Especially Zheng Zhi, a person who stammers and curries favor with the eunuch of the gelding, the more he thinks about it, the more angry he becomes.

Why did Xu Shida get to Tokyo? It was Zhe Keqiu who received the information that Western Xia was preparing for war, and was about to send someone to Tokyo to report. This errand was asked by Xu Shida, and Xu Shida said that he wanted to take this opportunity to go back to his hometown to see, but he actually wanted to take advantage of such an opportunity to enter Beijing to dredge up and transfer back to Tokyo.

The northwest is too barren and too hard. The land of Lingzhou is even more on the edge of the desert, and Xu Shida has been waiting for such an opportunity to return to Beijing for a long time.
