Speaking of the reason for Wei Guanzhi's grudge with Zhang Su, it should be said that it was for a piece of clothing, of course, not ordinary clothes, but official uniforms. Originally, according to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty government, the official uniforms of court officials were distinguished by color: high-ranking officials above the third rank wore purple clothes, officials above the fifth rank wore crimson clothes, officials above the seventh rank wore green clothes, and sesame officials below the seventh rank could only wear blue clothes. In addition to the color of the clothes, there are also fish bags. Of course, officials below the fifth rank should not think about it, because only officials above the fifth rank can wear a fish bag on the belt of the official uniform, and the fish bag has a fish charm hidden in it as a certificate to enter and exit the palace gate. Fish bags are divided into goldfish bags and whitebait bags, high-ranking officials above the third grade wear goldfish bags, and officials of the fourth to fifth grades wear silverfish bags.

Of course, if you are just a petty official, there is no need to hang your head, because you still have a chance, as long as you can please the emperor, as soon as the emperor is happy, he may reward you with one and let you show off, just like the emperor of the Qing Dynasty wore a yellow coat and wore a dazzling eye. This is not empty words, but there is a factual basis, the following little story, or a small joke, happened in the period of Empress Wu Zetian: It is said that the empress Wu Zetian of the year, finally survived her husband, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi, and snatched the throne from his son, and became the ninety-five supreme as he wished, but he has reached the age of old pearl yellow and beautiful people in the twilight, and suddenly felt that life is short, and gave birth to the illusion of borrowing from the sky for another 500 years. At this time, a person named Zhu Qianyi made a sycophant and said: "I had a dream last night, and I dreamed that Your Majesty lived for 800 years. "This sycophant is called a comfortable shot, and that is called a timely, Wu Zetian couldn't help but be happy, and immediately rewarded him with a petty official and picked up the legacy.

Seeing that he was a sycophant, he became a government civil servant, and the sycophant magic was so effective, Zhu Qian's mood was so cool, and he was determined to unswervingly put the sycophant, no, it should be called a dragon's fart, and shoot it to the end. No, Zhu Qianyi, who had just returned to Chang'an from the envoy, made another trick, saying that when he passed by Songshan, he heard Songshan singing long live. Wu Zetian Longyan was overjoyed again and immediately rewarded him with a silver fish bag. But our Majesty the Empress, I don't know if he is old and confused, but he still has to look at Zhu Qianji's jokes, and only rewarded him with a silver fish bag, but not a scarlet robe. Zhu Qian suspiciously hung the silverfish bag on his belt, but because he was less than five officials, the empress did not wear a scarlet robe, so she could only wear green clothes, green clothes and silver bags, which were conspicuous, and the government and the opposition were not surprised. Zhu Qian, who was ridiculed, became more and more courageous, and vowed to wear a scarlet robe.

The hard work paid off, and the opportunity soon came. It turned out that the Khitan rebelled, and there was a shortage of war horses on the front line, and Wu Zetian issued an unbelievable holy decree. The opportunity cannot be missed, a great opportunity is in front of him, how can Zhu Qiansu let it go? He spent a lot of money to buy a good horse, respectfully offered it, and then waited for the news of the official seal, but let Zhu Qian's suspicion wear the autumn water, and the edict of the official refused to arrive, Zhu Qianzhi really couldn't wait, so he went on a note and asked Her Majesty the Empress directly. But our Majesty the Empress obviously wants to repay the debt, seeing Zhu Qian's suspicion, he is angry, you Zhu Qianyi is something, and you dare to ask for an official, I will send you back to your hometown to farm. Zhu Qiansu worked hard, tried his best, and remodeled the emperor's sycophants, and now he returned to the pre-liberation period overnight, how could he be embarrassed? As a result, Zhu Qiansu became depressed, and not long after he was depressed, he was no longer depressed, not because he wanted to open it, but because he died.

Zhang Su's left mending que is from the seventh grade, which is a little larger than Zhu Qian's relics, but it is still a little far away from the scarlet silver bag. However, there is still an opportunity, this time, he was ordered to send an envoy to Ziqing, and the opportunity seemed to have come, because Prime Minister Pei Du suggested that the emperor reward Zhang Su with a silver bag of clothes. This is a common trick of officialdom, obviously not paying attention to others, obviously only sending a petty official from the seventh grade, but telling people with a red mouth and white teeth that the court attaches great importance to you, and sent a senior official of four or five grades, Li Chun of course knows this, and there is nothing to do. Seeing that Zhang Su's scarlet clothes and silver bags were about to be worn on his body, but, it was broken, and someone spoke: Zhang Su is just a traitorous villain, and he is not worthy of the scarlet silver bag at all! Yes, the clothes in my hands were stripped off again. Don't ask, it must be Wei Guanzhi who speaks, Zhang Su is so angry, I nod my head every time I see you, why do I offend you, I want to harm my good deeds, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, I will definitely make you pay for it.

Although he gritted his teeth with hatred, and although he hated deep into his bone marrow, Zhang Su still sadly found that he really had no way to take that hateful Wei Guanzhi, and there was no way at all. Because, no matter what, he is just a petty official from the seventh grade, and Wei Guanzhi is the prime minister, the two are not in the same heavyweight class at all, and if you want to bring down Wei Guanzhi, it is tantamount to shaking the tree. The disappointed Zhang Su did not despair, but chose to hibernate, quietly hiding in the dark, staring at Wei Guanzhi with a pair of cold eyes, like a greedy beast, staring at his prey. He believes that there will always be opportunities.

Now, the opportunity has come, Wei Guanzhi's holy favor is no longer there, and he has a sharp contradiction with Pei Du, the most powerful person in the dynasty, and the time is ripe to make a move, but Zhang Su still lacks an excuse. For ordinary people, this excuse is difficult to find, because Wei Guanzhi is upright and upright, and he does not leave any handle. But Zhang Su is not an ordinary person, but a traitorous villain, who has no excuse, he can make excuses, and create an excuse that does not require any evidence, but can definitely make Li Chunlongyan angry: friends.

As early as the eighth year of Yuanhe, rumors of friends spread over Chang'an, and the protagonists of the rumors at that time were Li Jifu and Li Jiang. Now, Li Jifu has traveled west, and Li Jiang has long since withdrawn from the center of power, but the string in Li Chun's mind is still tightly tightened. Back then, Li Jiang, who was a graceful saint, was questioned by the emperor again and again, and had a psychological breakdown, so he had to resign under the pretext of bad legs. Now, Wei Guanzhi, who is declining, is facing the same situation again, how long can he last?

As Zhang Su expected, Prime Minister Pei Du chose to remain silent about his small actions. To Zhang Su's surprise, when he quietly transmitted Wei Guanzhi's views on forming a party to the Son of Heaven, Li Chun did not ask questions at all, but directly deposed him as a servant of the ministry. Zhang Su was overjoyed and decided to add another fire to completely drive Wei Guanzhi out of the capital, and he did it, this time, Wei Guanzhi was demoted to the Hunan Observer Envoy.

Of course, there is another question, who is Wei Guanzhi's friend? Zhang Su had already made a long list of friends to Li Chun: Wei Qi, Li Zhengci, Xue Gonggan, Li Xuan, Wei Chuhou, Cui Shao...... Most of these people are the same as Wei Guanzhi, with upright character and are valued by the people of the time, and Wei Chuhou later became the prime minister of the Tang Empire. Of course, these people, like Wei Guanzhi, were all driven out of Chang'an and became the assassins of Yuanzhou. As soon as Hanlin Scholar and Zuo Shizhi Guo Qiu received the holy decree, they immediately went up to defend Wei Guanzhi and others, and soon, he was also added to that list and left Chang'an.

When Zhang Su was triumphant and happy, he would never realize that his actions just proved Wei Guanzhi's evaluation of him: a traitorous villain, that's all.

"This year's flowers are as good as last year's, and last year's people are old this year", Zhang Hongjing is gone, Wei Guanzhi is also gone, and the prime minister Wang Yi, who framed Bai Juyi, has also died, and the prime minister's position is vacant for two (Zhang Hongjing took one away) Li Chun left these two positions to Li Fengji and Wang Ya respectively. This time, the always wise emperor really saw the wrong person, not the wrong one, but the wrong two, because these two people are really not good birds.
