Three-five-nine, Dengwen drums
Since the last meeting with Dong Changqing, Li Gang has been hesitating whether to meddle in this matter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He didn't believe that Zhou Quan was going to rebel, at least before this incident, Zhou Quan should have no objection, Dong Changqing was right, Di Qiu had not built a city wall, and there were only 100,000 people in the city, if he wanted to rebel based on this, don't say that Zhou Quan, who is proficient in the art of war, is Li Gang's own scholar, and he will never do such a stupid thing.
However, he also felt that Zhou Quan had to be given a little restriction, not out of selfishness, but because he felt from the instinct of a politician that Zhou Quan's increasing influence on the country was not a good thing for them scholars.
So he hopes that there will be a degree that can not only restrain Zhou Quan, but also not force him to go away from other countries.
This hesitation has continued to this day, when Du Gou'er ran quickly and said that the Tai students had beaten the people of the Imperial City Division, and dragged all these people to Kaifeng Mansion, asking to chase down these people who were good at arresting students in Taixue, Li Gang was shocked: Although Dong Changqing looked for him, he did not regard him as the person who detonated the storm in Beijing.
By this time, Li Gang realized that he was also riding a tiger and could not stay out of it.
"Dong Rubai is a good means, he didn't have such skills in the past, he has only been in the hands of Zhou Quan for a few years, and he has already experienced it!" Li Gang praised and squeezed a piece of music in his sleeve.
As a civil minister, he was summoned by Zhao Ji to meet the right person, so he still has the right to write and perform.
This piece of music is to impeach Zhao Kai, the king of Jia, and take charge of the Imperial City Division as a prince, which is not in line with the ancestral system.
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with today's events, but as soon as this bullet comes out, it will be a weather vane, and Li Gang can be sure that when it appears, a huge storm will arise in the court.
He handed it over anyway.
If it is an ordinary concerto, it may be drowned in the general documents of the sea, and it may not be able to be handed over to the Zhongshu Province in a few days, and it will be even more difficult to reach Zhao Ji.
But this letter is different, after a short time, it can even be said that only half an hour later, it is in Zhao Ji's hands.
At first glance at this piece, Zhao Ji was so angry that he almost jumped up: "Zhu Ru'an dares to bully me like this!" ”
In the past few days, Zhao Ji's mood has been very unhappy, rumors have spread in Beijing, and there are few people who have reached his ears. He is not tired of Zhou Quan, after all, there is no one like Zhou Quan who can make money for him, so he has no objection to beating Zhou Quan, but if he really forces Zhou Quan away, he is not very happy.
But until now, Zhou Quan took his mother away, and there was no letter to defend him, which made Zhao Ji very disappointed.
Originally, in his opinion, Zhou Quan's coming to seal the chapter to defend himself gave him a chance to directly intervene in this matter, on the one hand, he would appease Zhou Quan, and on the other hand, take the opportunity to deprive Zhou Quan of part of his power and fine him some money. Zhou Quan was silent, he didn't have this opportunity, but because he was afraid that Zhou Quan would really be forced away from other countries.
Moreover, every day, someone whispers in his ear, saying that Zhou Quan has a heart of disobedience, which makes the suspicion in his heart more and more obvious.
Now Zhou Quan's self-defense did not come, but the chapter attacking the Imperial City Division arrived first.
"Where is Li Gang, Hugh wants to get away with this person, he dares to do this, provoke the love of the Son of Heaven, father and son?" Zhao Ji shouted again.
"Don't worry, this person will not escape." Beside him, Liang Shicheng said quietly.
Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment: "Why do you say this, how can he not get away with such a thing, isn't he afraid of punishing him?" ”
"The slave maid has heard of this person's reputation, and has always been known for his uprightness, and today when he entered the political affairs hall, he also placed a mat outside the political affairs hall......"
"Mats?"
"He said, when this recital comes up, the official family will punish him, and he can only die once to show his loyalty, and this mat is what he is going to use to wrap his body."
Zhao Ji was stunned at first, and then almost became angry.
The Great Song Dynasty treats scholars and doctors well, and there are few people who punish ministers with words, at least until now, there are few such examples. Li Gang's move is simply a fame and reputation!
But after thinking about it, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Then he looked at Li Gang's recital again, and saw one of the sentences, "If the blade is in the body, the murderous heart will rise, and the power in the hand will be difficult to dissipate", and then saw "Even if King Jia has no intention, it is inevitable that the subordinates will have a heart", "If it is not for the monarch's father's family and country, the minister does not dare not enter the speech, and the minister knows that he is guilty, if His Majesty can suppress the idea of preference a little, with the love of the whole father and son, the external benefit of the society, and the internal security palace, then the minister is willing to be punished", he sighed again: "Li Boji is really loyal to the minister, not a true loyal minister, and he does not dare to say this to me." ”
Liang Shicheng was silent, he just added a sentence, he had already received a generous gift, as for other more words, there was no need to mention it at all. In his heart, he doesn't have a good impression of people like Li Gang.
Of course, he has no good impression of King Jia's ambition to save the throne. In his selfishness, he is still inclined to the crown prince Zhao Huan.
"I won't ......report this performance," Zhao Ji said although he called Li Gang a loyal minister, but he had no intention of listening to his advice, so he commanded.
It's just that before his voice fell, he heard a faint sound of drums outside, and he was stunned for a moment: "It's not ...... at this time Dengwen Drum? ”
As in the previous dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty has a Dengwen drum in front of the Que Gate, in the time of Taizong of the Song Dynasty, a person called Mu Hui in Beijing once knocked on the Dengwen drum, which alarmed the Son of Heaven at that time, when he was summoned to ask, he knew that it was because of a lost sow at home, and the whole dynasty was made speechless at that time, and Zhao Guangyi, who had always been engraved, pretended to be generous at this time, and gave him a thousand dollars to pay the price of the sow. But after this time, the conditions for beating the Dengwen drum became complicated, and in the fourth year of Zhenzong Jingde, the Dengwen Drum Courtyard was specially set up to manage the affairs of the period.
When he heard the sound of drums, Zhao Ji had to go to the palace to ask about things, and he arbitrarily caged Li Gang's recital in his sleeve and hurried to the main hall.
Shocked by the Dengwen Drum, there were many people, important ministers of the DPRK and the central government, and nobles from all walks of life, who sent people to inquire about what was going on, which provoked someone to beat the Dengwen Drum.
Therefore, Zhao Ji sat on the throne angrily, and the ministers were already in front, and the news had already reached their ears at this time.
The Imperial City Division had a conflict with the Tai Students, and arrested the Tai Students in Taixue, but the result was not successful, but was beaten by the Tai Students and thrown to Kaifeng Mansion!
After everyone was stunned, the next thing was a little bit of a lively heart.
Don't look at their prominent positions, all of them are high-ranking officials, but the gossip heart is no different from ordinary women. Of course, too many students are nothing, but too many students, it is a little difficult to mess with, especially their self-mouths, no one in a high position likes it. As for the Imperial City Division, it is even more of a dog leg of the Son of Heaven, one by one, the wolf Gu Eagle Vision, and the person who is targeted has to shiver a few times if he does not shed his skin. Now that the two are not easy to mess with, there is a collision, of course everyone has to wait and see the play, if it is not for the fear of losing the dignity of the minister, they even want to move a small bench melon seeds to shout "Don't be cowardly".
"Is the governor of Dengwen Drum Academy?"
Dengwen Drum Academy's face is as pale as dirt, he is just an idle errand, who usually has nothing to do to go to Dengwen Drum! He is under the control of both the division and the righteousness, and he is only a small official in the Manchu Dynasty. Hearing Zhao Ji's obviously displeased voice, he went out of class to bow down.
"You are in charge of the drums, why are they being beaten?"
The prefect was full of grievances, and the original Dengwen drum had become an ornament, and it was impossible for three or five idle people to come close to beat the drum. But today he wanted to stop it, but how could he stop it, you must know that it was not a few people who came to beat the drums, but hundreds, followed by hundreds of people who didn't know whether to make a strong voice or watch the excitement, and he was in the Dengwen Drum Courtyard with more than 20 forbidden soldiers, and then they were dispersed.
"It's the Tai students of Beijing who sued the Imperial City Division for the arrest of people...... "The prefect was aggrieved in his heart, but he still had to tell the cause and effect in his mouth.
The high-ranking officials listened with joy, and Zhao Ji clenched his fists there.
In his hands, Li Gang's recital was almost crumpled into a ball. He even began to wonder in his heart whether today's incident was planned by Li Gang.
However, after thinking about it, he understood that Li Gang had gotten the news in advance of today's events, and it was impossible for him to plan it, after all, he might be able to secretly bewitch a few Tai students, but he couldn't mobilize the people of the Imperial City Division at all.
"Where is Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, just heard what the Drum Academy said, but the facts?"
Nie Shan, who was the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion at the time, was first cited by Cai You, and then had a close relationship with Wang Huang, and now he is attached to Cai Jing, and he is also aggrieved at this time.
Today's matter is a disaster for him at all, and he has not taken over the position of Kaifeng Mansion Yin for a long time, because Wang Hao and Cai Jing turned their faces, and he was also attacked by his old friends. When today's events first happened, his first thought was that this was a trap set by Wang Hao, waiting for him to jump down.
After all, Wang Hao has an excellent relationship with King Jia, and it can even be said that he is King Jia's party at all, and it is absolutely easy for him to instruct the Imperial City Division to do something.
Now that Zhao Ji asked, he could only step forward and say: "This morning, Taixue sent more than ten people to Kaifeng Mansion, complaining that they had no official documents, and they were arrested indiscriminately when they entered Taixue, and they also committed murder with knives. The minister has accepted it and persuaded the people to return, but the minister sent a servant to the Imperial City Division to inquire about the matter, and the Imperial City Division came with an official document and brought back all the more than ten people. When the minister saw the official document, he had to put it. ”
His meaning is very simple, I have already appeased and persuaded the Tai students to return, but later, the people of the Imperial City Division put pressure on me to release them, which angered the Tai Students, and simply knocked on the Dengwen drum - this is the pot of the Imperial City Division, and I will not carry it in Kaifeng Mansion!
Zhao Ji's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and he moved his gaze slightly, looking at one of the people in the train.
It was Zhao Kai, the king of Jia, the third son he preferred.
At this time, Zhao Kai was seventeen years old, and he looked beautiful, very similar to Zhao Ji. And his character is not as old-fashioned and pedantic as the prince Zhao Huan, he likes piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is even more peerless Zhao Ji. His mother, the princess, is in a favored position, and deep in Zhao Ji's heart, he does have the intention of abolishing the prince and establishing Zhao Kai.
At this time, in the face of sudden things, Zhao Kai was not only not frightened, but Zhao Ji also saw a trace of excitement on his face. Obviously, he saw this conflict between the Tai Student and the Imperial City Division as an opportunity.
This made Zhao Ji suddenly a little worried. (To be continued.) )
