Chapter 167: The headache Zhang Wenjun
But the problem is that the Empress Wu cannot and does not have the power to remove Zhang Wenjun!
Although Li Zhi is sick now, she replaces Li Zhi to look at the court, but like Zhang Wenjun, such an important minister of Jiuqing, she will inevitably alarm the emperor, and now she does not have that prestige in a word!
What's more, more importantly, Zhang Wenjun's Dali Siqing can't be removed at all, not to mention that he is a veteran of the two dynasties, loyal, although this old man sometimes doesn't speak very well, but he has always been fair and strict, and his prestige among the courtiers is excellent, and rashly moving him will definitely make the courtiers feel cold.
Besides, although this old man often glared at Li Zhiqi's blowing beard, Empress Wu knew in his heart that Li Zhi's heart was actually very dependent on Zhang Wenjun, otherwise he would not have handed over the Dali Temple in charge of the world's prison to him with confidence.
Even in the Empress Wu himself, it is also very recognized by Zhang Wenjun, regardless of factions, the Empress Wu has to admit that Zhang Wenjun's fair and strict character is the most suitable person to take charge of Dali Temple.
Except that the temper is really too stubborn!
Because of the confrontation with Li Zhi, Zhang Wenqian has not been punished once, but he still goes his own way, and since Zhang Wenjun mentioned his resignation last time, Li Zhi has been worried for a long time, for fear that this serious old man will really hang up the seal and leave!
At that time, it is still light to lose a capable and loyal courtier, and the vacancy of the position of Dali Temple Secretary will not cause a turmoil in the court.
So when he met such a soft and hard courtier, Li Zhi had a headache all the time.
Now Empress Wu also feels this feeling.
After settling down, Empress Wu slowly spoke.
Zhang Aiqing doesn't have to be like this, Zhou Zhongcheng is just a momentary gaffe. The palace did not mean to accuse Zhang Aiqing, and the matter of Helan Min had passed. Needless to say, as for the Chun Yu case. The trial has not yet been concluded, Zhang Aiqing does not need to be in a hurry, not to mention that today is the matter of the trial of the three divisions, not to discuss anything else, Zhang Aiqing will get up first! ”
In desperation, Empress Wu had no choice but to gently persuade Zhang Wenjun.
Although this old man looks like he doesn't eat soft and hard, but since the hard ones can't come now, he can only come to the soft ones.
I thought that Zhang Wenqian would continue to hold on for a while, but I didn't expect the old man Shi Shiran to stand up. Arch said.
"Xie Niangniang Longen!"
After that, he didn't forget to glance at Zhou Yunyuan provocatively.
Look, you just welcomed the martial arts so much, in exchange for nothing more than a reprimand, and now I ask myself to be dismissed, and I will be retained.
The treatment of the two of us is simply very different!
Immediately, Zhou Yunyuan's face turned green, but because of Empress Wu's attitude just now, he didn't dare to attack. had to stand in place awkwardly, staring at Zhang Wenqian fiercely.
And Zhang Wenjun, who had enough demonstrate, retreated to the place satisfied, but Li Hong caught a naughty smile in his eyes.
He shook his head slowly.
Li Hong sighed secretly, it seems that this big-looking Zhang Wenqian is not as simple as it seems. Although his actions just now seemed very reckless, when he thought about it, it was also ingenious.
He believes. Since the last night talk in the East Palace, Zhang Wenqian has also dispelled the idea of resigning. It's just a show.
Of course, Li Hong knew that Zhang Wenqian was scaring people. But Empress Wu didn't know how she could have thought that with Zhang Wenjun's seemingly extremely old-fashioned and strict character, she would also play the trick of empty city planning.
What's more, Zhang Wenqian must have calculated that the Empress Wu didn't dare to deal with him rashly, so he brought out this trick to be scary, but it seems that the effect is not bad, at least looking at Zhou Yunyuan's angry and red old face, Zhang Wenqian feels extremely comfortable!
However, Zhang Wenjun's troubles diluted the originally tense and depressing atmosphere in the hall.
A moment later, it was Empress Wu who was the first to speak.
"The matter of the three divisions is a major matter, although there is no clear purpose, but this proposal has indeed been approved by His Majesty at the court meeting, at this moment, Your Majesty is in poor health, I am afraid it is not appropriate to change this matter without permission!"
Empress Wu said very tactfully, but her attitude was very clear.
The emperor has just been sick now, and you are in a hurry to say that the emperor's order is wrong, are you falling into the ground? What's more, it is Your Majesty's intention to let Liu Renliang preside over the trial, and now that Your Majesty is not here, how can we easily change it!
The meaning of the words is still to let Liu Renliang preside over the case!
Li Hong frowned, and was about to go out, but saw that someone had already taken the lead and stood up to His Highness.
"Mother's words are wrong!"
This person is the minister in imperial history who Li Hong saw when he first entered the hall, at that time Li Hong was in a hurry and was hungry, and he didn't see his appearance clearly, and now he stood in the center of the hall, Li Hong was able to look at him carefully.
This person is about forty years old, and his court clothes are very clean, but he can see that he is very shabby, his face is white, and he can barely be regarded as a handsome scholar, but he has always been expressionless, and he is not polite than Zhang Wenqian when he speaks.
"Your Majesty is at fault, the courtiers should be correct, otherwise what's the use of asking me to wait for the imperial history? Now although His Majesty is sick, Niangniang has the responsibility to help the monarch instead of His Majesty, instead of using this as an excuse to shield his subordinates and bend the law for personal gain! Liu Renliang and Li Yifu have an excellent personal relationship, which is well known, and the suspect in this case is Li Yifu, so how can the minister believe that Liu Renliang can handle this case impartially! ”
The imperial history was still expressionless, and the lack of words was ruthless, and Li Hong, who listened to it, was shocked.
Is it now that the imperial history is so bold?
In these words, she almost pointed at the nose of Empress Wu and scolded her for deliberately protecting Li Yifu, and she was also blunt about the fact that this order under Li Zhi was wrong, this is the rhythm of offending the emperor and queen together at one time!
"Then what does Lord Wang think?"
The imperial history himself said it happily, but the face of the martial queen became more and more difficult to see.
This question is simply squeezed out word by word, and the dissatisfaction is overflowing.
What's more, although the imperial history has the right to say things, but it does not have the power to directly intervene in government affairs, and the ridicule of the Empress Wu is very strong, and it is obvious that he feels that he is beyond his strength.
"Hui Niangniang, the minister is the imperial history, and it is the duty to write a letter to advise when he sees that the king is wrong, as for how to deal with it, the non-minister can decide!"
The Imperial Historian continued without moving.
Hearing this, Wu Hou's tone slowed down slightly, and it seemed that this person was not completely ignorant of advancing and retreating!
But the next moment, Empress Wu knew that she was wrong! And it's completely wrong!
I saw that the imperial history paused and continued.
"However, as a subject of the Tang Dynasty, the minister also has the right to admonish the king, so in the name of a subject of the Tang Dynasty, the minister asks Niangniang to remove Liu Renliang from the position of presiding judge, and choose a fair and honest person to preside over the case!"
