Chapter 201: Roaring Court
"How dare those things that are blocked by the shaft be compared with military affairs? It's ridiculous."
"I heard that Wu Zhi's son has an official position, but he has never been interested in the people's will, and he has no intention of sharing worries for His Majesty, and he only knows how to seek personal gains.
"The minister impeached Wu Zhi, the military cavalry captain, and made a lot of nonsense above the court, despising the imperial power"
"Seconded by the Minister"
"Seconded by the Minister"
A group of officials knelt down in the court, demanding that Wuda be severely punished.
As mentioned above, in the Great Song Dynasty, the status of merchants has always been very embarrassing, and the imperial court has taken the taxes of merchants, but they have always looked down on merchants from the bottom of their hearts, and the status of merchants is even inferior to ordinary people.
Wu Da is a seven-rank military cavalry captain, but he has been personally doing business, which has been criticized, and now, the court is discussing national affairs, Wu Da actually dares to bet on it? If the bet is something else, it would be fine, and the bet demanded by Wuda was actually money, which made those officials in the court who have always boasted of having a clean breeze on their sleeves and not bending their waists for five buckets of rice not be furious?
In fact, their anger is very reasonable, although the Great Song Dynasty court is extremely greedy for ink, but all those who can serve as officials, most of them are indeed two-sleeved, they have won a reputation, that is, they use reputation to speak, and they will not destroy their lives for some small money at all.
Of course, whether their in-laws or even distant relatives are in business or not is another matter.
This is also a major drawback of the Great Song Dynasty, most of the officials will not be corrupt themselves, never handle it personally, relatives and subordinates are greedy for ink, after the incident, it is a big deal to cure a crime of lax imperial care, and they can't shake their foundation at all.
But in any case, at this time, Wuda was in the court, and the grandiose affairs of the military state were put together with the things in their eyes, and they absolutely could not tolerate it.
While frantically accumulating wealth, he also despises silver money as a blockage.
What does it mean to be shameless? That's shamelessness
Wu Da was not in a hurry, still holding his arms, sneered, and said:
"The boy was outside the door, and he seemed to hear that several bigwigs from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household were fighting for 20,000 pieces of silver, and now the kid put forward a bet of 10,000 yuan, and it became a big talk? Dare to ask you, are you deceiving me for being young? Or is it ...... You've always been so clever about it? ”
"You ......" an official was extremely angry and wanted to scold.
Wu Da didn't want to listen to him at all, so he directly interrupted him and said lightly:
"Ahh As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before they move grain and grass, this time my Great Song Dynasty joined forces with the Jin State to crusade against the Liao thieves, don't you need money? There is a famine in more than a dozen states, and the court does not need money for disaster relief? Don't you need money to raise soldiers in the court on weekdays? Don't you even need money for your lordship? By the way, this adult is so angry, the kid wants to ask, how many people are in your house? And how many slaves? As a speech official, you have a clean breeze on your sleeves, may I ask, if you really do not accept those things that you disdain on weekdays, how does your government spend your wages? As far as your little money is concerned, don't say that you are a captive slave, I'm afraid you can't even open the pot for your own family to eat, right? Money? I'm phew."
Speaking of this, Wu Da secretly glanced at Song Huizong on the dragon chair, found nothing abnormal, and continued:
"I don't understand, now that our Great Song Dynasty merchants are all over the Central Plains, and the taxes that the imperial court takes from the merchants every year are also extremely high, why do you look down on the merchants so much? Every action of the imperial court is obviously inseparable from money, why do you scoff at it? Is it really like the rumor in the market, you have to be a bitch, a son, and set up a memorial arch? ”
Above the court, there was silence.
No one thought that Wu Dali Temple was taken to the palace for accountability just now, or did he dare to "roar the court"? This kind of thing, except for Tong Guan, who is unreasonable and only talks about fists, who dares to do it? Don't forget, Wu Da's words can be said to have offended all the officials in the entire court.
After a long time, those officials came to their senses, knelt down for a long time, kowtowed "bang bang bang", and roared:
"Your Majesty Wu Zhi's son actually dares to make such a big rebellious remark above the court, and Weichen implores His Majesty to be the master of the old minister"
"I beg Your Majesty to be the master of the old minister"
At this time, Liang Shoudao, who had been closing his eyes and never making a sound, spoke up as one of the six thieves in the Northern Song Dynasty in history:
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that although what Wu Zhi said is vulgar, his words are not rough, sonorous and powerful, and thought-provoking, please ask Your Majesty for a holy judgment."
Liang Shoudao is the official of the inspection school, and all the imperial orders are out of his hands, and he has his own power in the court, as soon as he speaks, the ministers under him will naturally wave their flags and cheer.
"Minister, seconded"
"The minister also seconded the proposal"
Wu Da was slightly stunned, he really didn't expect that someone would stand up and speak for him, and glanced at Liang Shoudao with gratitude without showing his face.
However, Liang Shoudao is weak after all, and today he wants to put Wu more than death, or let Wu Da sit in prison, but the voices of the Tongfu Cai Mansion and Gao Yu Gao Taiwei's Mansion were made at the same time, so the voices of Liang Shoudao and others were quickly drowned out.
Song Huizong sat on the dragon chair, and he was tepid, and he let the hundred officials quarrel like a shrew in the market, and he never made a sound, just watched quietly.
It's just that no one noticed that there seemed to be a touch of sarcasm on the corner of Song Huizong's mouth.
After arguing for a long time, Gao Yu and Gao Taiwei suddenly came out of the queue and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that no matter what, let Wu Zhi finish his words first. If he can't solve the current problems of our military department, it is not impossible to punish him again."
Hit the nail on the head
However, don't think that Gao Yu is talking to Wuda.
These officials in the court are a group of big fools, who have been confused by Wuda, and this will actually refute the status of businessmen.
Gao Yu believes that the so-called wearing shoes for horses before Wuhan University is the key, as long as it is revealed that Wuhan University is playing tricks, it can completely knock Wuhan University into the dust.
He is falling into the well and cutting off the back road of Wuda.
The official also reacted, and was just about to re-ask for a cure for the crime of Wu Da, but at this moment, a loud and rough voice exploded in everyone's ears from the outside in.
"Punishment? I'll cure you, mother, one, egg"
A sturdy little old man wearing armor and a sword, walking with a dragon and a tiger, did not communicate or ask for instructions, and directly ran into it arrogantly and unreasonably.
Yes, he did crash in directly, and by the way, he crashed into several officials.
The eunuch's voice was only belated at this time:
"The inspector Taiwei Taifu Northwest Supervisor Jing Guogong, Tong Guantong General Audience"
