Chapter 2 How to be respectful and respectful in the face of danger (I)

[A little late.] Next is the third watch]

Zhang Dian came over after he was released.

After Han Gang came back, he asked the people in the family to prepare wine and food. After waiting for Zhang Dian to come, the two of them sat down in the inner hall, drinking hot wine and eating exquisite dishes at the same time, so that they could also discuss the current situation well.

It's just that when Zhang Dian entered the door, his face was as if Han Gang was dragging a large sum of money and not paying it back, with a face, it was really not an atmosphere of drinking and chatting.

Seeing this, Han Gang led him to the study first, and sat down to chat slowly.

After another afternoon of busy work in the yazhong, Zhang Dian already felt that he was about to lose his stomach, but his mind was still immersed in excitement. This feeling of being sleepy, but not sleeping. It made his mood even worse.

Glancing at Han Gang, who was smiling freely, is this still like an official who resigned from his position? Refreshed to the point of jealousy.

Han Jiang served as the envoy of the mountain tomb, and the other Zai Fu were also busy and around, and none of them could be idle. Zhang Dian also went to Wang Anshi's mansion to inquire at the order of the Queen Mother before, and asked Han Gang to inquire here after the release of the government, and a few days ago, he wished that there were twenty-four hours a day.

After several days of continuous rotation, Zhang Dian was as tired as a dog, and when he saw Han Gang, who had become extremely idle due to his resignation, he complained and blurted out, "Yukun, you are really comfortable enough." ”

"People don't suffer from widowhood but unevenness, Brother Zihou, are you jealous?"

"How can you not be jealous?" Zhang Dun sat down, "If you knew that you would not let Yukun go, you would get out." ”

Resign and resign, this is called getting out? At least nine out of ten officials in the DPRK and China would not think so. However, as far as Han Gang is concerned, he has indeed escaped from a big trouble.

"It's too late to regret it now." Han Gangha laughed, "Brother Zihou, it's been hard these days. ”

Which pot doesn't open which pot to mention, just seeing Han Gang's sincere expression, Zhang Dian felt a sense of powerlessness, isn't he such a character?

Putting down the teacup, Zhang Dian said: "Yukun, do you know that the three armies still want to be rewarded this time?" ”

"I haven't heard of it, but I can guess it."

There is no precedent for the emperor in the Great Song Dynasty, in the past, the old emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, and then a lot of money was thrown as a reward, which also had the meaning of buying people's hearts. So now, there is a long gap between ascending the throne and dying, and in terms of the imperial court, of course, it doesn't want to give more unjust money. But the soldiers of the three armies, which one will be more beneficial?

Zhang Dian sighed: "I knew that Dao would be like this, so I wasn't in such a hurry at that time. ”

If he had known that Zhao Xu had only been on the throne for a few months, Zhao Xu, the emperor, would have died. There was no need to be in such a hurry to meditate in the first place, and now there is no need to dwell on the issue of the emperor being killed. But then again, if I had known that Zhao Ji would die because of an accident, there would be no need to prevent it now.

Han Gang's mouth moved, and he swallowed the words. After the previous reminders of Zhang Dian and Wang Anshi, he had a bit of self-reflection. In retrospect, it's really a problem.,It's a bit of a change in personality.,More and more like arguing with people.,It's nothing if it's just academic.,But it's also the same when you're with family and friends.,It's not a good thing.。

"What did you do after the last day?" Han Ganggai asked.

He gave him the land on the Cool Road as a reward. If you want, you can sign up by yourself. Those who dare to make trouble, their own military law awaits them. ”

Han Gang thought for a moment and understood what it meant to sign up by himself, "Exile Ganliang?" That's a good thing. But...... It's impossible not to give any benefit, right? ”

Zhao Ji's death in vain is bound to be cloudy in the eyes of the world. How many years have passed since the sound of the candle shadow axe was heard, it is not difficult to imagine how the death of Emperor Xizong would be choreographed. At this time, it is necessary to show it to the outside with a generous funeral, so as not to give people more excuses.

"It's up to the Mint. This year's taxes have long been gone, and nothing can be moved. Emperor Daxing's expenditure could only rely on the Mint. There was a mistake in the middle, and there was no means to make up for it. ”

This year, the money was spent one after another, and the savings in the inner and outer warehouses poured out like a flood that broke the embankment, and it was shocking to look at the numbers on the accounts. Zhang Dian can be regarded as knowing what kind of mood Lu Yijian and Fan Zhongyan were in when they watched the military spending in the northwest rise with their heads rising. If it weren't for Han Gang opening up new sources of wealth and using a large number of new coins to fill the shortfall, I don't know how Lu Dao would have supported the situation.

"If the quality of the coin doesn't deteriorate, it's fine. How serious the money shortage is in the world, there is no need for Han Gang to say more. As long as the people are willing to use it, no matter how much is cast, the people can accommodate it. ”

"It's Yukun that makes people worry when you're not there."

"As long as there is no negligence in the review, isn't it the same to change back? The subordinates of the Zhongshu and the palace should strengthen supervision, if they have committed a crime, they will directly seize the official and issue a match, and no one will dare to try the king's law. ”

Han Gang wasn't worried about not being able to find out. There are subtle differences in the coinage templates used by the money supervisors everywhere, and there will be a change every year, and the source of new coins with defective quality can be found immediately. All that is to worry about is law enforcement.

"Yukun, you have forgotten the theory of the source of money you wrote? Coins are valuable because of credit, and when it comes to credit, the withdrawals of dozens of money supervisors in the world add up to nothing compared to Yukun alone. It's not that the foolish brother is arrogant, and when it comes to credit, no one in the court can compare to you, and the foolish brother is far inferior. ”

"Brother Zihou thinks too highly of Han Gang. Even if that's the case, you have to get used to it. ”

This should be said with a good foundation. Yukun's time in the Mint is too short, it takes three or five years to build credit. Now that he suddenly let go, the military and civilians all over the world have doubts. ”

Han Gang frowned and stared at Zhang Dian for a while, "Brother Zihou, you came here today, shouldn't you be a lobbyist?" ”

"It's one thing. The Mint Bureau and the Firearms Bureau are not good errands, but the court still hopes that you will share your worries with the Queen Mother and the court now. ”

Although the Mint Bureau is newly established, everyone knows that its predecessor was the yamen under the Salt and Iron Division of the Three Divisions, and it is even more humiliating than the dismissal of the official to let Han Gang, a former ruler who has entered the two governments, take charge of the position. Although Han Gang was in office before, it was only a part-time position, and the main position was still in the Xuanhui Academy.

Zhang Dian believed that Han Gang's person should be able to understand the difficulties of the imperial court. But he also understands that this is too much to ask.

"No problem." Han Gang agreed, he was very simple, thought about it, and said: "By the way, I will give the position of the director of the Imperial Song University Library to the younger brother." In this way, the civil, military and financial resources are complete. ”

"Imperial Song Library...... Curator? Zhang Dian thought for a while, nodded and said, "This matter is easy to say, and it can be compared to the palace envoy." What do you think? ”

"This should be decided by the imperial court, and it depends on the imperial court."

The palace and ancestral hall officials are regarded as a place used by the imperial court to support the elderly and retire, and the officials who serve in it are all taking money and doing nothing. Zai Fu went to work, if he didn't go out as an official, he would mostly serve as palace envoys, such as Jingling Palace envoys and Taiyi palace envoys, and officials with lower status were promoted and Guan Gou, such as lifting Dongxiao Palace and Guan Gou Chongxi Guan. The status is too low to go, at least it has to be an official with a rank above the state level. If the so-called curator can compare with the palace envoy, it is equivalent to mentioning the Imperial Song Dynasty Library, which is still on paper, to the first order of Zaifu.

But there won't be much criticism in doing so. The Chongwen Academy, also known as the Secret Pavilion of the Three Pavilions, is also similar in nature to a library, but it is not open to the public. And the prime minister is to concurrently serve as a scholar of the three museums - a scholar of the Zhaobunkan University, a supervisor of national history, and a scholar of the Jixian Academy. Even though the open library is not as good as the private library of the Son of Heaven, just as the scholars in the external system are not as good as the scholars in the internal system, they are not much worse. Maybe in the future, there will be an inner and outer museum.

"Alright. This should be the thing on the surface......"

Han Gang sat up a little upright and gossiped, but it should be just the reason why Zhang Dian came over on his face, and the real reason could not be such a trivial matter.

"Hmm." Zhang Dian nodded, his expression a little more serious, "Yukun, do you know what the second king did?" ”

"The second king is not crazy?"

"I'm here to worship the Azusa Palace today, are you still crazy?"

Han Gang sneered, "...... Too anxious to worry about. ”

"Of course. If he dares to make trouble, one zhang of white silk, two or two opportunities, and the court will not be stingy with this reward. But that's just the beginning. Zhang Dan's face was gloomy, "Yukun." The Empress Dowager is also coming over today, do you know the way? ”

When a mother comes to worship her son, it is in accordance with heaven and human feelings, and there is no reason to hinder her. But this Empress Gao, where will he be at peace?

"But what happened?"

Zhang Dian shook his head slowly, and said calmly: "Not at all." ”

Han Gang couldn't help frowning, if something is abnormal, it must be a demon, this is not normal at all.

"Now it's just the ministers taking turns to keep watch, and after the twenty-seventh day, the Son of Heaven will lead the ministers to pay tribute to Zi Palace, in front of the civil and military officials, Yukun, Emperor Gao will make trouble, what kind of situation will it be?"

Seeing the poor dagger, Han Gang understood that Zhang Dian was here to settle accounts.

The reason why the Zaifu did not forcibly ask the queen to abolish the establishment that day was not because they felt that it was still early, and Zhao Xu's body was not good, so he could stay up and wait for him to die. As long as Zhao Xu is still sitting in the palace, when he thinks of how he will deal with the pro-government in the future, which one can sleep well?

But at that time, the situation was too sudden, and Zaisuke, who had the intention of abandoning the Son of Heaven, did not have time to connect with each other. In addition, Han Gang tried to protect Zhao Xu, and the Empress Dowager Xiang was also persuaded by him, and Wang Anshi, the only person who could suppress Han Gang, would never agree to abolish the little emperor, so he did not launch it immediately.

And Han Gang's proposal is even more of a trump card.

As long as the Emperor's bloodline is still there, no one else will be allowed to sit on it. ’

It seems that this statement is not clear, and there can indeed be another explanation. If you want to be flexible, it is to let the Empress Dowager Xiang control the court for a long time, and when Zhao Xu gives birth to an heir, let him be the emperor.

But now that they have calmed down, the minds of the Zaisukes have changed again, and they will have to think about it in ten years.

In any case, Han Gang must give an explanation.
