Chapter 272: Changing Generals

After listening to Zhang Shixun's words, Zhang Guan opened his mouth wide, his head was clouded, and he couldn't speak for a while. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoHe's a little pedantic, but definitely not stupid, and then there's no way out what happened.

At this time, Chen Yaozuo finished reading Gao Daquan's pleadings, got up and said: "Your Majesty, the incident happened in the forbidden army under the jurisdiction of the front division of the palace, no matter what the final truth is, Zheng Shouzhong cannot stay in the front division of the palace." In order to prevent the former division of the temple from changing the forbidden army, replace them immediately! ”

Zhao Zhen calmed down and said to the ministers in front of him: "The change of the palace marshal is not a small matter, do you have a suitable candidate?" ”

Zhang Shixun said: "Gaoyang Guan Lu Shuai Shou Gaohua has recently entered Beijing to report on his work, and he has not yet resigned, but he can manage the front division of the palace." ”

Li Zhi got up and agreed: "Gao Hua has a law to control the army, is cautious, and is a suitable person." The minister thought that not only Zheng Shouzhong, but also Marquis Sun Lian in front of the palace would also be replaced. This case is worse than the second, and the terrible thing is that it is terrible, and it is the commander of the army who ordered his subordinates to do it! ”

Zhao Zhen nodded, thought for a while, and said: "Li Zhaoliang is loyal and capable, but he can be the Marquis of Yu in front of the palace on behalf of Sun Lian." ”

The matter is urgent, and all procedures are simple. At that moment, Xia Zhu, a scholar from Hanlin who was present, wrote the words, took out the seal of the palace, and handed it to the Privy Council. Zhang Shixun temporarily left the Chongzheng Palace and hurried back to Xifu to recruit Zheng Shouzhong and Sun Lian and his successors.

Out of the big interior, Zhang Shixun only felt that the anger in his heart could not be suppressed. Originally, after Lu Yijian was demoted from the imperial court, it was not easy for him to be a privy envoy, and now that there is such a serious malpractice, sooner or later he will be held responsible. Although the military and political affairs are in charge of the three government themselves, the Privy Council is nominally the superior, how can it be safe.

Zhang Shixun left, and Li Di said: "Such a big case, if it is not an important minister, it cannot be thoroughly investigated, and the minister asks His Majesty to make a holy judgment!" ”

Zhao Zhen instinctively turned his head to look at Zhang Guan, and then shook his head. Just now, he was still arguing with Xu Ping to settle the matter, how could he trust him with confidence. After bowing his head and thinking for a while, Zhao Zhen said: "If the forbidden army commits a crime, it is still up to the Privy Council." Li Zhi, you will preside over the trial of this case, and you will be sure to find out if you choose reliable personnel to help you. ”

Li Zhi stepped forward to receive the order: "Weichen respectfully obeys the holy decree!" In addition, the minister asked the Imperial City Division to assist. ”

Zhao Zhen nodded: "If you are the Imperial City Si Lan Yuan, you will be cautious and able to do things with your heart, so he will assist you." Goshidai - "

Looking at Zhang Guan, Zhao Zhen couldn't make up his mind for a while. This kind of case must be involved in Yushitai, but Zhang Guan's performance just now is really unreassuring. It is not easy to choose the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory to bypass the Imperial Historical Observatory.

Xu Ping said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he has been in the state and county for many years, knows the laws and regulations, and can participate in the trial of the case without following personal feelings. In addition, this case involves a loan from the Beijing Divisional Bank, and there must be a lot of things to check the account books, so the Audit Department is invited to participate. ”

Li Di said: "The minister thinks that what Xu Ping said is pertinent, Pang Ji is available, and the Audit Department can order Zheng Jian to prepare consultants together." ”

The matter was settled, and the privy deputy envoy Li Shi was in charge, with the assistance of Shi Pang Ji and Lan Yuanyong, the Imperial City Division, and Zheng Jian participated in it to provide professional knowledge. Li Zhi was already in charge of the Privy Council's redundant personnel, as well as criminal and so on, and his use of him was just in line with the division of labor in the Privy Council. Not to mention, the Imperial City Division was originally to contain the Sanya, and there was usually a lot of cooperation with the Privy Council, and it was exactly what they couldn't ask for to clean up the forbidden army together. The Audit Department just because the case involved a bank, and the other officials really had no choice but to rely on their strength.

As for Cheng Zhang Guan in the imperial history, he will inevitably be released after this incident, but for the sake of his face, it will be postponed for the time being.

Zheng Shouzhong had already received the news of the confrontation between the two armies in the city, but he was still unclear about the details, and he couldn't help but feel worried when he heard that he had gone to the Privy Council. The status of the three marshals is equal to that of the ruling party, and it is still a little worse than that of the privy envoys. But strictly speaking, the Privy Council is the boss of the three yas, although this boss has no means to manage the specific affairs of the three ya, and the status is always there.

When he arrived in front of the Privy Council, he was meeting Sun Lian who was coming, and Zheng Shouzhong had an ominous premonition in his heart. Generally speaking, even if the Privy Council summons the military commander to read the edict in the future, it is very polite, and it is very rare to be a direct subordinate like this today.

Historically, the relationship between the Sanya and the Privy Council in the Song Dynasty was a dividing point in the Shenzong Dynasty. After the Shenzong Dynasty, the status of the Privy Council as a superior became more prominent.

After the ceremony, the soldier led the two to the front of the capital hall and asked them to stop in front of the door. Seeing that the soldier's attitude was extremely disrespectful, Zheng Shouzhong and Sun Lian felt cold in their hearts. The Privy Council routinely does not use the people of the three ya, their guards and other things are all used by the imperial city soldiers, as soon as they see the bad attitude of the people below, the two generals in charge of the army know that they are only afraid that it will be difficult to be good today.

In a moment, the courteous official came out and ordered the two to remove their scepters and prepare to enter the capital hall to listen to the announcement. The two of them had no choice but to unload their waist knives and other weapons, chant loudly, and followed into the capital.

Zhang Shixun was dressed in court clothes, and after sitting on the public case, a huge iron ruler on the case was particularly eye-catching. Behind him, the four carefully selected officials of the Imperial City Division stood up, not angry and arrogant, staring at Zheng Shouzhong and Sun Lian who came in.

The three generals are all martial artists, and if they are forced to be in a hurry, they may not do anything, and these four relatives and the big iron ruler on the case are just to prevent accidents. To put it plainly, if you dare to be rude to the privy envoy above the capital, you will be killed.

The Northern Song Dynasty only had a ceremonial role, and the generals in charge of the army did not go crazy, but when the power of the Southern Song Dynasty rose, then there was really someone to be killed.

Zheng Shouzhong and the others didn't know how many times they had come, but they had never seen this kind of atmosphere, and they couldn't help but be frightened, and they no longer had the invincible aura of the past. bowed and saluted, and stood under the hall in a daze.

Zhang Shixun did not give a seat as before, let the two of them stand, and there was no cold noise, he directly took the holy decree and came out from behind the case, and said sharply: "Zheng Shouzhong, the deputy commander of the palace, and Sun Lian, the marquis of Yu in front of the palace, come forward to listen to the announcement!" ”

The edict used under the Zhongshu Gate and the Privy Council used the Xuan, both of which were formal court edicts downward, and the orders could not be violated.

Since the case was not clearly investigated and not mentioned in the Xuanzhong, Zheng Shouzhong was directly relieved of his position as the deputy capital of Gaoyangguan Road. One thing and one order, after disposing of Zheng Shouzhong, Sun Lian is the same.

Put away the edict and let the public officials on one side hand it over to the two, Zhang Shixun said sharply: "The military order is like a mountain, when it is announced, the two of you will leave Beijing immediately!" In order to prevent accidents, the envoy and the official of the Imperial City Department will accompany the escort, and there shall be no violation! ”

After speaking, Zhang Shixun returned to the public case, sat down and asked the two: "What do you have to say, if there is nothing to do, this will be out of Beijing!" ”

Zheng Shouzhong asked respectfully: "Enxiang, can you tell me clearly, because of what is the reason for the two of us to manage the army?" ”

Zhang Shixun said coldly: "You don't have to know, just follow the order!" ”

Sun Lian was not as afraid of things as Zheng Shouzhong, and said with his head held high: "We are the generals in charge of the army, how can we be dismissed from the military without knowing anything!" The imperial court acted like this, which is really chilling! ”

Zhang Shixun slapped the case a few times: "Discussing the government and politics in the capital hall, are you dead?!" ”

Before the words fell, the family officer behind him had already reached out and put his hand on the big iron ruler.
