Chapter 234 Official Fight

Zhang Shixun has been floating in the sea for decades, and this time is the third time, and it is unique in the history of the Song Dynasty. I don't know what Li Ruogu is thinking at the moment?

smiled faintly, with a hint of confidence on his old face. "Long! Sand! King! ”

When Zhang Shixun spoke, his voice was not loud, and it was even a few points lower than when he usually spoke.

But this is such a voice, such words, in Li Ruogu's ears, it is no less than a thunderclap on the ground.

After a long while, Li Ruogu came back to his senses, looked at Zhang Shixun in disbelief, forced a smile, and said, "This is a bit of a knife to use, right?" It's just a barbarian place, why do you need to conquer with the dignity of a prince! ”

"It's powerful! The barbarians of the ten states must send generals to conquest! Zhang Shixun's eyes were a little cold, and he looked at Li Ruogu fixedly.

Li Ruogu was silent, lowered his head slightly, and avoided Zhang Shixun's gaze.

Zhang Shixun said again: "Yanzhou, a military town!" These governors have all given them filial piety. Once you return to the court, it will be a hungry tiger out of the iron prison and will eat people! Shaoyuan is cautious! ”

Li Ruogu sighed, did not speak, and retreated from Zhang Shixun.

Looking at Li Ruogu's figure slowly withdrawing, Zhang Shixun's old face showed a smug smile.

Zhang Shixun met with several other prime ministers in the name of discussing the pacification of Anhuaman, some agreed, and some silently expressed the middle way, but what made Zhang Shixun angry was that some people actually took a firm stand against it!

This person is Cheng Lin, the governor of the political affairs, Cheng Lin is the only remaining prime minister when Lu Yijian was in the court, and he was one of the nine prime ministers when Zhao Yu returned to Beijing to take up his post. Now it's old and old, degrading. Wang Zeng, Li Shi, Cai Qi and others have all died of illness. Wang Sui, Chen Yaozuo, Han Yi and others were all degraded.

Even Song Shou, a young Zhuang faction, who has the reputation of "young minister" in the officialdom, was also demoted to Henan Mansion as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

The only one that remains, that is, Cheng Lin, the third envoy of the year, is now an official to participate in political affairs.

Speaking of which, the relationship between Cheng Lin and Zhang Shixun is not much better, in the second year of Ming Dao, Song Renzong was in power, and Zhang Shixun cleaned Cheng Lin to Jingdong Road to quell the chaos. If it weren't for Zhao Yu's help, Cheng Lin wouldn't have been able to say how down. At the same time, Cheng Lin had a close relationship with Lu Yijian, and was able to serve as the third envoy after returning from Jingdong East Road, but it all relied on Lu Yijian's recommendation.

Whether it is Lu Yijian or Zhao Yu, they have a bad relationship with Zhang Shixun, and Cheng Lin himself has been harmed by Zhang Shixun, how can he go all the way with Zhang Shixun?

Now that half a year later, Zhao Yu has returned to the dynasty, and he has a person who has joined forces to fight, how can he be willing to follow Zhang Shixun?

No, Cheng Lin is an official person. Sometimes I do commit two mistakes. It's like in the Tiansheng year, he actually sent Liu E "The Picture of the Martial Empress Linchao" in the early dynasty. instigated Liu E to be the second Wu Zetian. As a result, Liu E didn't know what she was thinking, so she didn't take the opportunity to agree, but scolded Cheng Lin fiercely, and then talked about the relationship between mother and son.

Liu E has made enough face, but Cheng Lin is Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror - she is not a person inside and out.

This time Cheng Lin was the same, after talking to Zhang Shixun, Cheng Lin entered the palace angrily and asked to see him.

The Prime Minister has come to see you!

Song Renzong naturally couldn't disappear, so he asked Cheng Lin to come in immediately.

As soon as Cheng Lin came in, he shouted. "Official! I can't live this day! There is a big traitor in the court! ”

Song Renzong was not as shocked as the officials thought. There is no way, the officials of the Song Dynasty just like to pull the banner, and even Zhao Yu exaggerated that the person who destroyed the Song Dynasty was so-and-so.

As an emperor who has been an emperor for more than 20 years, Song Renzong is very calm. "Cheng Aiqing! What the hell is going on? What makes you so angry and excited? ”

"Yingguo Gongye!" Cheng Lin was not stunned, and did not hesitate to point the finger at Zhang Shixun.

Pull the camera here to Zhang Shixun, Zhang Shixun, as the Duke of Yingguo, and even more so as Song Renzong's teacher, how can there be no eyeliner?

This Cheng Lin went to ask for a meeting, and there were already familiar forbidden soldiers who came to make a small report. The prince of the country is great! Oops, that Cheng Tianqiu! Go to the palace! Angry, nine times out of ten, it's suing your old man!

Zhang Shixun thought about it, is this okay?

Hurriedly asked the concubine to prepare court clothes, and he wanted to enter the palace to face the saint.

Nangong Tang happened to come to Zhang Shixun, and when he saw that the people in the room were busy, he naturally asked the reason. "Dong Weng? Didn't you just get off the job? Why do you seem to be preparing court clothes? When you're older, don't be so able to toss! ”

Zhang Shixun listened to Nangong Tang's uninhibited ridicule, and secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, this kid just makes people feel uncomfortable! Zhang Shixun said angrily: "It's not Cheng Tianqiu's bastard!" This word is really correct, it's just a bastard! The old man asked him to discuss the matter of Anhua's brutal chaos, but this bastard didn't agree, and said that the old man was selfish and suppressed the loyal ministers and filial sons! It just so happened that the head of the forbidden army soldier told him to enter the palace and face the saint, what is the matter with this holy place! You don't have to ask, you must have slandered the old man in front of the official! The old man said that he couldn't let him splash dirty water on the old man and defend himself in front of the officials! ”

Nangong Tang swept the hem, sat opposite Zhang Shixun with a golden knife, and said with a big grin: "I said Dong Weng!" Have you forgotten the lessons of the past? ”

Zhang Shixun is not a stupid person, although Nangong Tang's words have no beginning or end, but he can hear the taste from it. Dengshi broke out in a cold sweat.

What made Zhang Shixun so frightened?

Do you still remember why Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng were demoted? Isn't it just that the two prime ministers attacked each other, and Song Renzong simply came to play fifty boards each. If Zhang Shixun and Cheng Lin make a fuss, will they give Song Renzong fifty boards each like Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng?

Zhang Shixun felt that it was quite possible, after all, if Song Renzong could tolerate Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng, how could he give them fifty boards each? After all, these two prime ministers are handling government affairs, and Zhang Shixun has to admit that it is better than doing it himself!

Government affairs are not necessarily better than those of predecessors, but they are like predecessors in attacking each other. It's strange that Song Renzong doesn't belittle you.

However, Zhang Shixun was still unwilling. A stomping of the foot. said hatefully: "Could it be that Cheng Tianqiu, the bastard, impeached the old man like this." And the old man is indifferent? Isn't this a man for a sword, and a man for a fish? The old man is still a dignified Duke of Yingguo, and he is like a weak woman, so helpless to a big man? ”

The more Zhang Shixun spoke, the more angry he became, and scolded: "The weak woman can still shout a few times, and the old man can't even shout, even speak, even shout, nothing!" The old man simply went to the palace to fight with this Tianqiu, and if he loses both, he loses both! ”

The more Zhang Shixun spoke, the more angry he became, and his relatively fair face became red.

Nangong Tang didn't think so. You leaned back in the chair and said slowly: "Dong Weng! What's the mess? From the student's point of view, Cheng Lin's entry into the palace to file a complaint will not only not be helpful to the King of Changsha, but in the future, the King of Changsha will go to Guangnan West Road, maybe thanks to Cheng Lin's entry into the palace this time! ”

Zhang Shixun was stunned and couldn't help asking, "How come?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Shixun thought of the answer, and his face immediately turned red.

Nangong Tang looked at Zhang Shixun with disdain and said, "Dong Weng! You're too inferior, aren't you? The king of Changsha is barely a warrior. He Cheng Lin served as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture and served as the third envoy. He is also serving as Governor of the Council. In addition to the military position, I have served as the number one leader in the confidential department of the Song Dynasty, although it is said that people go to tea and cool, but who does not have a few old departments still left in it? With such a minister walking with the king of Changsha, do you think the official family will be suspicious? ”

Zhang Shixun coughed and said stupidly: "Why doesn't the old man know about this?" It's just a mistake! This time, the old man didn't enter the palace to see him, and he had to pretend to be sick at home. ”

Nangong Tang said happily: "That's right!" ”

When Zhang Shixun heard this, he was angry and said, "I said it badly, what do you mean by this?" What did the old man do in the past is not right? ”

Nangong Tang stood up, patted his clothes, and asked with a smile: "Dong Weng, what do you say?" ”

After that, Nangong Tang ignored Zhang Shixun, who looked angry, and left slowly.

Zhang Shixun looked at Nangong Tang's back, couldn't cry or laugh, sighed, and said, "This is not good!" Everything is good, but it's too arrogant, and it's annoying to speak! If you are an official, I am afraid that you will be eaten by your colleagues and subordinates, alas! ”

And where is Cheng Lin? Cheng Lin's complaint went smoothly, and this success did not mean that Song Renzong was moved, but that no one interrupted him. Song Renzong faced Cheng Lin's complaint, did not express his approval or impossibility, just nodded, or asked occasionally, and when Cheng Lin finished speaking, Song Renzong just said that he knew.

Cheng Lin walked out of the palace, worried in her heart, what the hell is going on with this? Why is the official attitude so ambiguous? This is the king of Changsha? The official family also has a little bit of a brother who protects his younger brother?

And the next day, to the surprise of the people in Zhongshu Province, why didn't Ying Guogong come to work today?

Soon Zhang Shixun's family came and said that Zhang Shixun was sick, what kind of disease? Occasionally contracted a minor illness, but you are old and need to recuperate for a while?

How long is the recuperation?

I don't know! Ying Guogong is old, and this conditioning thing is uncertain, maybe a day, maybe a month.

But soon, I didn't know that a message came out there.

The official Zhang San said to Li Si: "Do you know? Why didn't Ying Guogong come to order something? ”

Li Si glanced at Zhang San, looked strange, and said, "You shouldn't even know this, right?" Yingguo Gong is occasionally infected with a small illness! What's the matter, the Duke of Yingguo is seventy-five years old, what's so strange about being sick? Maybe after a while, the official family will be sympathetic to the old ministers and let the Duke of Yingguo be a five-day day! ”

Zhang San pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "What do you know!" Ying Guogong is sick there, I saw him yesterday! The face is full of red light, although it is said that there are five out of seventy, but even if it is said to be sixty, some people believe it! I've heard that! The reason why Ying Guogong is sick is because he is pretending to be sick! ”

Li Si frowned slightly and asked, "Pretending to be sick?" What's going on? ”

Zhang San said in a sneaky low voice: "I told you this matter only because of my two buddies!" Don't spread the word around! I heard that there was a barbarian rebellion on Guangnan West Road, and Ying Guogong wanted to ask the king of Changsha to quell the rebellion. Cheng Xianggong, who participated in the political affairs, entered the palace to face the saint, saying that Yingguo was favoritism, which was called quelling the chaos, and it was actually sent to the king of Changsha to Lingnan! also said a lot of bad things about Ying Guogong, all kinds of city favors, party formations, etc.! He also said that this allowed the king of Changsha to go to Lingnan, which was to cut off the official's arm, so that he could take the opportunity to control the court and become a courtier with power in the world. ”

Li Sisi was taken aback and said, "Wow! So soon, two more prime ministers are attacking each other? ”

After a pause, Li Si immediately said strangely: "That's not right! Ying Guogong didn't seem to have any reaction, what's wrong? Did Ying Guogong recite the Buddha too much and be compassionate? ”

Zhang San looked at Li Si with disdain on his face and said, "What do you know!" How dare Ying Guogong speak? It's just that he doesn't know about this matter to the king of Changsha, and if he knows about it, the prince of Yingguo still dares to speak! How powerful is the king of Changsha, do you know? Even if it's Ding Wei, the governor of Yanzhou, who is all involved, came back to the capital with his tail between his legs. In June this year, the king of Changsha will finish his filial piety, at that time, wouldn't the Duke of Yingguo be bad? Now Ying Guogong seems to be pretending to be sick, but he is actually subduing the king of Changsha and Cheng Xianggong. ”

This rumor intensified, and in the end, it all changed, not Zhang Shixun pretending to be sick. Instead, it is said that Zhao Yu, the king of Changsha, sent a letter to Zhang Shixun, on which was a bloody blade and letter paper, and the letter paper was written in blood, Do you dare not kill anyone?

scared Zhang Shixun into fart, and scared him out of illness.

How could Song Renzong not know about such a thing? Soon a eunuch came and reported the matter one by one, and even the version of the rumor said five, which was really dedicated.

After listening to the eunuch's report, Song Renzong was silent for a long time, looked down and saw that the eunuch was still in the distance, and said indifferently: "I already know, you go down!" ”

The eunuch couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "Official, just ...... That's it? ”

Song Renzong glanced at the eunuch coldly and said, "I already know!" Go down! ”

Although he was repeating what he had just said, it made the eunuch so frightened that his back was full of cold sweat, and he retired even if he was busy. Secretly vigilant in his heart, the emperor's mind is really like the sky, one moment it may be a sunny day, and the next moment it will be cloudy!

Four days later, the morning pilgrimage.

The matter has been reported, and the new Inner Capital Governor Wang Shouzhong is preparing to let the hundred officials retire from the court.

But Song Renzong suddenly made a gesture, and Wang Shouzhong hurriedly stopped the words in his throat, which made him suffocate a lot, and his face turned red.

The officials are naturally smart-eyed people, and many people saw Song Renzong's gestures, and secretly guessed in their hearts, what's wrong with the official family? What was he going to say?

Li Ruogu's heart jumped, and he looked sideways at Zhang Shixun, the Duke of Yingguo, who suddenly "recovered". I saw a fleeting smile flashing on the corner of Zhang Shixun's mouth. Li Ruogu's heart became uneasy. (To be continued......)
