Chapter 28: The Beam's Soft Red Shower (9)

【First Update】

The Northwest War is about to start, and in order to deal with the emergency military situation in a timely manner, the Dongfu Government Hall and the Xifu Privy Council will leave one person on duty according to the story.

Today, there is a governor Feng Jing on duty in the East Mansion, and Li Shunju hurriedly came with an order. In the building of Zhongshu, there is also a room for people to sleep, Li Shunju thought that Feng Jing would take a nap in the inner room, but he didn't expect that at this time, he was still sitting under the lamp and reading.

After Feng Jing got up to salute, he stood solemnly in front of Li Shun and listened to the Son of Heaven's close attendants convey the edict. But the next situation was not Feng Jing's usual drama of bowing down to accept the order, but standing motionless, his eyebrows raised at a dangerous angle, and the anger in his eyes was faintly ignited.

Li Shunju chuckled in his heart, knowing that something was wrong.

"I don't know who Han Gang is?" Feng Jing opened his mouth slowly. In the slow tone, there was obviously a lot of anger mixed in, "Which way is it the supervisor, or the guard of the border county, or there is an urgent military situation to wait for him to face the Son of Heaven?!" ”

This time it was Li Shun's turn to bow his head: "...... It is the edge of Qinzhou to appease the driver. ”

"Didn't Wang Shao of the Qinzhou Border Pacification Division come here? Didn't the Son of Heaven see him, and what did he want to see Han Gang? A person selected in Hangang District is not to enter Beijing because of merit, but only to be transferred, and he is not even qualified to meet him, so how can he talk about overstepping? What's the precedent story?! Feng Jing slammed Li Shunju one question at a time, but inadvertently revealed his understanding of Han Gang.

There are no two days, there are no two lords of the people, there is only one Son of Heaven, the Great Song Dynasty, and the number of people who can meet every day is also limited, and the ministers who want to see the Son of Heaven are countless. Therefore, the opportunity to face the saint is something that everyone is fighting for. In order to settle such disputes, there is a list of orders, and there is a fixed number of who should be in the right place on any day. But there are always emergencies in the world, and there will always be people who have practical needs, and they must see the Son of Heaven as soon as possible.

But everybody's in line, and you have to have a convincing argument if you want to cut the line. Therefore, those who are qualified to break the order must either have sufficient status - ordinary supervisors and state officials are not qualified, they must be vassals who want counties and roads-and the other is to have an urgent military situation and be asked by the Son of Heaven, and Han Gang, neither.

"......" Li Shunju was silent, even if he wanted to speak, he didn't dare to speak, he only had the qualifications to speak, and he didn't have the right to intervene in official affairs.

Feng Jing glanced at Li Shun condescendingly, and snorted heavily, obviously his anger was still there, but his tone had eased, "Now there are still as many as 100 people waiting for the face saint in order, and all of them are in the heavy responsibility of the Dutch military state. Han Gang is just a contemptuous minister, but he can jump above everyone, and if he is obedient, he will definitely cause discussions, which is not a good thing for Han Gang himself. He is not even an official of the Beijing Dynasty, he is just a candidate. Although he is a little talented, and he has a small merit, the more he meets him, the more he is rewarded, it is not a comprehensive way. You go back to reply to the official family, the affairs of the court, the ancestors have their own law, you should act according to this, Your Majesty issued an edict, and the ministers did not dare to accept it! ”

Feng Jing coldly rejected the edict of the Son of Heaven, saying that it was to maintain the customs of the imperial court, but more importantly, because of his dislike of Wang Anshi. Feng Jing was not a member of the New Party, and his promotion to the position of Governor was the result of Zhao Ji's habit of 'mixing different opinions' when dealing with the political situation in the court of the Song Emperors.

Han Gang is from Wang Shao's sect in Qinzhou, and it is obvious that he is Wang Anshi's faction. This time, the Son of Heaven called him overnight to make him more and more right, no matter what Feng Jing thought, someone spoke in front of the Son of Heaven for him. In Feng Jing's opinion, newcomers like Han Gang are like flies that drill through cracks, which is really difficult for people to have a good impression of them.

Feng Jing didn't want to see Han Gang break the rules of the court, and there was no reason to change the rules for maintaining the order of the court for the sake of a candidate. is not a local commander, and he is not in the military, such a status really makes people can't see what role he can play in front of the Son of Heaven. Leaving the Son of Heaven's message behind, Feng Jing was determined to maintain order in the imperial court.

Blocking the Son of Heaven's disregard for the rules of the court, Feng Jing also felt a little complacent, "Fortunately, it's me, if Wang Yuyu [Wang Jue] listens, he will definitely not dare to push it." ’

Feng Jing didn't take the holy oracle seriously, and Li Shunju didn't dare to say much, there were too many such things. Mo said that the edict was written by the Son of Heaven himself, and it was common to be beaten back by the ruling and the two systems.

If the Son of Heaven opposes the resolution that the rulers handle, he will be drowned out by a refuge accusation. On the contrary, it was the edict of the Son of Heaven, which the rulers could ignore if they did not like it, and the emperor did not hesitate - almost all edicts were preceded by the word "under the door" [Note 1], which means that the edict must be reviewed by the province before it has the authority to issue the world. This regulation was passed down from the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty. Nowadays, the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia are united, and they are called Zhongshu Menxia, that is, the political affairs hall.

Therefore, Feng Jing refused Zhao Ji's verbal command, and he was justifiable.

How can Li Shunju be qualified to say no. The eunuchs of this dynasty are probably the least statused in all dynasties. There is no Han Dynasty Ten Standing Servants to control the internal and external government at all, and it is not like the Shence Lieutenant of the Tang Dynasty, who wants to change the emperor and change the emperor. In the internal and external affairs of the DPRK and China, the prime minister has nowhere to interfere. These servants, if they are evil or if they make the officials look unpleasant, even if the Son of Heaven goes up, even the Son of Heaven may not be able to protect them.

bowed down and agreed, and Li Shunju was about to go back to his life. But Feng Jing suddenly shouted again, "Wait......

Li Shunju hurriedly turned back and waited for Feng Jing's fate.

"Li Shunju, you came here at the mouth of the Son of Heaven at this time, isn't the official family sleeping yet?"

Li Shunju was stunned for a moment, and asked Feng Jing how to talk about this, but he still had to answer honestly: "The official family has indeed not gone to bed yet." ”

Feng Jing's eyes were full of anger again, and he scolded sharply: "Now that it is the queen of the third watch, the official family has not yet slept peacefully. As a close attendant of the Son of Heaven, how can you not admonish him!? ”

Li Shunju replied in a low voice: "The official family is in the Wuying Palace, discussing the military with the Song Palace, and the lower officials dare not disturb?" ”

"If the Son of Heaven has not acted properly, can't you advise? Just watch the official family stay awake at night? When it was spread outside the palace, outsiders did not know that the Son of Heaven was diligent in government, but thought that the official family was lazy...... If it goes on like this, can the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager still be able to see it? Do you have to change someone who dares to speak and follow the official family! ”

Feng Jing spoke sharply, and Li Shunju was so frightened that he didn't dare to raise his head, and even pleaded guilty.

And after taking Li Shunju for a while, Feng Jing glared at him and drove him out.

Li Shunju hurried away as if fleeing for his life, Feng Jing was still angry, picked up the cold tea in the cup and drank it all, and then slammed the tea cup on the table, "This Wang Jiefu, the day before yesterday, appointed a new recruit, but he is still a Beijing Dynasty official from Jinshi." Now Han Gang is just a person, he has no name, and he has no background, so he even let him get into the right place more times. It's getting too much! ’

……………………

Han Gang didn't know that he was unlucky enough to be injured by mistake, and he fell asleep peacefully.

The day after arriving in Beijing, it was a windless sunny day that was the most popular day in winter. When the morning sunlight shone through the window and into the room, Han Gang had already woken up. After leaving the warm and nostalgic futon, after getting up, he hurriedly freshened up, had breakfast, said a few words to Wang Shao, and then got up and went to Zhongshu to wait for the delivery.

Han Gang was ordered by Zhongshu to rush from Qinzhou to the capital. He now knows that this is because Wang Anshi wants to transfer him to Yan Yan to help Han Jiang. But yesterday he was a little unhappy with Wang Anshi, and Han Gang thought about how to refuse this troublesome task.

Han Gang is not a court official, and he does not need to rush to the palace when he is in the court. He is going to go to the Zhongshu Gate, and only after the court meeting will he officially start working. Riding a horse slowly in front of the Xuande Gate, the huge square was empty. Holding the text sent to his hand, he smoothly entered the palace from the right door, and Han Gang went straight to the pavilion of Zhongshu Province.

Through a public official from Zhongshu Province, Han Gang sat up on a cold bench in the foyer, along with a group of officials who were also waiting to be summoned by Zaizhi. He looked very young among these officials, and many of them gave him a few more looks.

After waiting for a long time, Han Gang saw that there were more and more officials in the foyer, but no one was summoned in.

"Why is it so slow today?" Someone whispered a whisper.

Someone is well-informed: "There are few people in the political hall now, Wang Xianggong was left in the middle today, and now there is only Feng Dashen in the political hall." ”

Everyone was stunned. Now in the political hall, there are two prime ministers in name, one of whom participates in politics, but now Han Jiang is in Guanxi, and Wang Anshi was left in the Chongzheng Hall by the Son of Heaven after today's court meeting, and only Feng Jing is responsible for official business, of course, he can't get up quickly.

"Isn't Wang Yuyu already in politics? Why didn't he come? ”

"Wang Yuyu only got the first resignation the day before yesterday, and it will take at least seven or eight days to get things done."

Wang Yuyu is Wang Jue, who is good at using gold and jade as poetry and is known as Zhibaodan. He has been appointed as the governor of the council, and is now in the stage of resigning from the Lord. After resigning a few times, he can officially serve as a vice minister of a country.

Han Gang quietly listened to this group of officials talking about various rumors in the court, time passed little by little, and I don't know how long it took, a middle-aged official walked into the foyer.

The hall suddenly fell silent, and dozens of pairs of eyes looked at the official.

"Qinzhou Hangang." The official called Han Gang's name.

Han Gang rose in response.

"Please come with the villain." The official's voice was so calm that he turned to go inside.

Han Gang was slightly stunned, and the suddenly sharp gaze around him seemed to pierce his skin like a needle. Under normal circumstances, ordinary officials are not qualified to meet with the governor alone, and must go with seven or eight officials to pay homage. He had just offended Wang Anshi, but now he was called in alone, could he still value himself so much?

"Am I the only one?" Han Gang chased after him and asked.

The middle-aged official didn't answer, but just repeated: "Han Guanren, please come with the villain." ”

Note 1: Regardless of the Tang and Song dynasties, the beginning of the edict was not 'Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict', but 'under the door'. If you see the historical drama of the Tang and Song dynasties, if someone reads the edict and reads 'Fengtian Carrier', you can laugh.
