Chapter 5: Sages Need Successor Recommendations (II)

The prince was sick, he was seriously ill, and he also set off a lot of waves in the court, some people were busy looking for medicine, some people were busy seeking medical treatment, and some even asked for luck, and offered the Diamond Sutra written with stabbing tongue and blood to keep him safe. And the palace is also a doctor to ask for medicine, praying to God and worshiping Buddha. As for whether the situation is true or not, everyone knows it in their hearts, and most of them are just superficial efforts.

As for Lu Huiqing, he didn't worry about the health of the third son of the emperor, Zhao Jun, or even the question of life and death.

The Son of Heaven is only twenty-five or sixteen, although his body and bones are weaker, he can still exert himself in the harem, and his children are born one after another, but they can't raise them much. It's not time to care about it, and if you don't have an heir after thirty, it's never too late.

Renzong Jiayou was in the imperial history of Zhang Yu, who was a clear introduction and did not make friends with colleagues, and Renzong once joked that he was "lonely and cold". And Zhang Yu directly refuted that Renzong was Lone Han, saying: "The courtiers have wives and children, and there are relatives outside, and there are only two people under His Majesty Zhaoyang [Note 1], so it is said that Renzong's mind was so decided. But at that time, Renzong was forty years old, and his body was sick, so he definitely couldn't give birth to an heir. And to say that today's Son of Heaven is 'lonely and cold' is a little early......

Now Lu Huiqing can be regarded as a lonely person. The New Party is looking forward to the main backbone of the new party's posture in Beijing, and there are only two or three people who are really looking forward to it. Deng Xuan's wall-head grass, before the edict came out, had already attached itself, and now it has fallen back.

Originally, after Wang Anshi left, Lu Huiqing was promoted to the governor of the political affairs department in one fell swoop, and he was full of spirit and wanted to show his talents. But the upper ones are controlled by the Son of Heaven, and the lower ones are undecided, and the left and right are restrained by their colleagues in the political hall, and their ambitions have nowhere to go. Originally, there was still a chance to break up, but who would have thought that Han Gang would suddenly use a cold arrow.

As soon as the news that Wang Anshi was about to return to Beijing was confirmed, all the monkeys that had just gathered around him dispersed. It is said that the tree has fallen and scattered, but he Lu Jifu has not fallen yet! At this time, Lu Huiqing discovered that Wang Anshi's thirty years of waiting were not in vain, and the prestige accumulated in the thirty years had been transformed into a deep-rooted tree that supported the sky, and he was just a vine wrapped around the tree.

It's ridiculous!

Lu Shengqing watched his brother be in a bad mood in the past two days, and then said something by his side to divert the irritability in Lu Huiqing's heart, and he didn't have a good word for Han Gang, the initiator, "It's ridiculous that Han Yukun, first tried to invite Wang Jiefu back to Beijing, and now Zhang Luo asked Zhang Zai to enter Beijing, don't you know that although the status gap between the two is huge, they are both regarded as masters in the Confucian sect, and the root of the avenue is that they are in the opposite direction, and the ice and charcoal cannot be the same furnace." ”

Lu Huiqing's eyelids moved, in fact, he was not convinced, Zhang Zai belonged to the same year as him, why is Zhang Zai a grandmaster? He, Lu Huiqing, also made extraordinary achievements in the scriptures, but he was overshadowed by Wang Anshi's light.

Moreover, Han Gang directly recommended Zhang Zai to sentence the national eunuch, which is simply a lion's mouth, and it is impossible to do it. No one can count on the priest and priest of the country, and according to the story, the position of the second chief of the country is rarely granted. No matter how famous he is, he can only be a prison sentence. Lu Shengqing said risingly, "But the sentence is not so easy to do, the famous Confucian Hu Ying, after being recommended by Fan Zhongyan to the Guozi Prison, only served as the position of the Guozi Prison." ”

"Han Gang is wise, Lu Dafang is a calm person, and Wang Qi is slippery, where would the three of them make such a mistake? What is clear is to repair the plank road in the light and Chen Cang in the dark. "I just suffered a big loss in the hands of Han Gang, there are still plate armor and spaceships in front of me, Han Gang's mental techniques, Lu Huiqing has already learned them, but he will not think that he is confused.

Lu Shengqing was stunned for a while when he heard this, and then sighed: "...... With the heart of the Son of Heaven, Zhang Zai is really settled in Beijing. Then you reluctantly laughed, "I think that after Wang Jiefu entered Beijing, when he heard about his son-in-law's actions, his face must be very good-looking." ”

Lu Huiqing didn't laugh, how could he be happy about such a thing.

Do you want to directly stop Jang Jae from going to Beijing?

As soon as this thought arose, Lu Huiqing shook his head, what is he doing at this time to show that loyalty!? It's up to them to fight with their son-in-law. If he is acting on his behalf, he will really fix Han Gang, maybe he will make Wang Anshi unable to see it, and he will not be able to kiss him! But he Lu Huiqing is by no means bullied, anyway, Wang Anshi is fifty-five this year, and he, Lu Huiqing, is only forty-four, sooner or later he can wait for the day when Wang Anshi can't keep Han Gang.

After nightfall, Lu Heqing also went home.

Lu Heqing was recently transferred to the position of Kaifeng Governor, and he happened to be on an errand to accompany the supervisor. Today is in the market to end the case of Zhao Shiju and Li Fengmou. Ling Chi three people, three people in half, the market outside Kaifeng Mansion has not been so lively for a long time.

Lu Heqing has not seen the world, but in one day, he watched three scenes of blunt blade meat, followed by three rounds of scenes of cutting living people, and when he came back, he didn't even have the appetite to eat.

He shook his head again and again in front of Lu Huiqing and Lu Shengqing, his face was full of unbearable: "It's all some unwarranted disasters, but they are not prudent and have made the wrong friends, which one really has the intention of rebellion?" It's really miserable to look at it one by one, and I've been shouting injustice. ”

"I went the wrong way, I saw the wrong person, and I can't complain about others." Lu Huiqing's color sank.

Lu Heqing was still sighing: "Zhu Tang gave the Inner Temple Chongban, and the reward was five hundred yuan. The first person to sue is so abundant, I am afraid that people will rebel every year in the future. ”

Lu Shengqing, who was also in the study, heard that Lu Huiqing was not sighing for Zhao Shiju's case, "Who is the eldest brother talking about?" ”

Lu Huiqing was full of worries, but she didn't want to say more. Although he has always been very deep in the city, and his joy and anger are invisible, this time he really fell too hard, and the psychological gap was too big, and he was a little unbalanced. Barely restraining the irritability in his heart, he turned his head and asked Lu Heqing: "Jian Zhoufu will also be killed together today, right?" ”

"Jian Zhoufu is sitting next to me in a newly given purple chapter suit, and he is only a pusher!" Lu Heqing was even more indignant when he said that his colleagues who had turned the originally set false accusation case into a major case of rebellion today. "How many people have been harmed, and they have changed into a three-grade uniform!" He, Lu Heqing, is still wearing a green robe.

Lu Huiqing sneered: "Zhu Zi is not very valuable, just stay up with qualifications." Twenty years of succession can be given purple, last year to the Empress Dowager for the treatment of the Empress Dowager meritorious service, remember that also gave purple early. Do you think he dares to sit down in front of his brother? ”

"The cycle of heaven and retribution is not happy, and Jian Zhoufu will not have a good result sooner or later." Lu Heqing cursed uncontrollably. Thinking about it, he got closer again, and asked in a mysterious whisper: "Yongguo Gong has been seriously ill recently, could it be because of the injustice in this case?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense! Hide it in my stomach for me. Lu Huiqing suddenly shouted: "You watched the fate of Li Feng and them with your own eyes, don't you know that you should be cautious in your words and deeds?!" ”

The eldest brother is like a father, Lu Huiqing was angry, Lu Heqing hurriedly stood up and pleaded guilty, and he didn't dare to defend himself for half a sentence.

After some more gossip, Lu Shengqing and Lu Heqing said goodbye together and left their brother's study.

"What the hell is going on today?" After going out, Lu Heqing felt that he was a little wronged today,

"Big brother has been in a bad mood lately, and you don't know what to do." Lu Shengqing glared, "But today I heard that Wang Jue, Lu Dafang and Han Gang recommended Zhang Zai together, and most of them also have this kind of thing." ”

Lu Heqing asked in surprise: "When did Han Gang get in touch with Wang Qi?" ”

"Who knows how to ......"

……………………

There are not a few people who are speculating about the relationship between Han Gang and Wang Qi now.

But Han Gang knew very well that Wang Jue was just doing a favor, and he just wanted to watch Weng Son-in-law play against him. Zhang Zai is worth recommending, so Wang Jue recommended it - he can't get along with Wang Anshi, and it is also in line with his positioning of himself - where there are so many deep meanings.

However, Han Gang also has to thank Wang Jue, he directly recommended Zhang Zai in the book It is not a big deal, the key is to invite Wang Jue and Wang Yuyu, the veteran ruler, which makes many hidden opponents restrain their hands. No matter how Wang Qi is, he is also a governor of political affairs, opposing his recommendation, preventing Zhang Zai, who is very famous in Shilin, from entering Beijing, and the imperial historians who want to gain fame will not do such stupid things.

Han Gang was waiting for the news from the palace to be confirmed, after all, Wang Anshi's news had now arrived.

"Official." Wang Yi hurriedly greeted him, and asked Han Gang, who had just walked into the house, in the courtyard, "I heard that there is news of my father?" ”

Han Gang nodded, he heard the news in the prison today, and sent someone back to inform him. When the prime minister and other important ministers are about to enter Beijing, the post stations along the way will send fast horses to inform Jingzhong so that people can greet them, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law have passed Yingtianfu yesterday, and there are still three days to go, and they will be able to arrive in the capital." ”

"Daddy, mother, mother, brother, sister-in-law, are they okay?" Wang Yi asked again.

"How can this be known to the husband? The one who came to report did not say anything. Han Gang spread his hands and smiled, "But the father-in-law and mother-in-law are no problem, otherwise the news will definitely mention it." And judging from the itinerary, there was no delay in the middle of the journey, and Yuan Ze probably had no problem. ”

After listening to Han Gang's analysis, Wang Yi's heart finally relaxed after more than a month. Accompanied Han Gang to the back room, peeked at his face, and asked cautiously, "Has the official's recommendation been approved?" ”

Han Gang shook his head, "Not yet, but it should be in the past two days." ”

Wang Yi wanted to speak and stopped, in fact, she was a little worried, the disagreement between Han Gang and her father was in academics. In case Wang Anshi went to Beijing first and prevented Zhang Zai from going to Beijing, there would be disputes again.

Which side can be the first step?

Wang Yi was worried, and his steps gradually became heavy as Han Gang walked into the backyard.

Note 1: In the Han Dynasty, there was Zhaoyang Palace, where Zhao Feiyan's sisters once lived. This refers to Empress Cao.
