After all the things were discussed, Fan Zhen and more than a dozen important ministers withdrew from the palace, although everyone had a title, but some were only honored, and there were only a few people in the hall of the government, but just a dozen people were obviously divided into two or three groups. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Since Zheng Renzhi died of illness, the Privy Council now actually only has Wei Renpu as the privy envoy and Wang Pu as the privy deputy envoy, and the two talked quietly as they walked, naturally walking a little in front.

And Zhongshu Shilang, Tongping Zhangshi Wang Pu was originally close to Li Gu, but Li Gu was sick, and this year's father's mourning period was reactivated, Wang Pu asked to return to his hometown for the funeral several times, which made Guo Rong angry and almost surrendered.

Recently, Zhongshu has been busy with government affairs, and Fan Zhen has gone very fast, and he chattered and complained endlessly as he walked: "The war in Huainan is not enough, although the two camps in the northwest have made meritorious contributions to recover Hehuang, but the officials of all states have let the military attache of Jiezhen fill the position, what kind of system will it become if it goes on like this." ”

In fact, this is very common in various parts of the Kansai region, during the period of the first emperor Guo Wei, the military attachés were repeatedly replaced, and civilian officials were replaced, but due to the frequent wars, the court did not send personnel in time, or the town rewarded the officers under its jurisdiction for meritorious service, this situation still exists.

"This is also a matter of no choice, wait for a year or two before transferring the military attache of Jiezhen, and it will be too late to change the position of civil official." Of course, Wang Pu knew that in the final analysis, the court was still short of money and grain, although the gold mines in Tangzhou were still being mined, but every time the war was rewarded, the gold cakes cast by the Shaofu Zuozang Department were distributed, but they were changed to copper coins by the generals' private collections, and the gold cakes were still very few in circulation in the market.

Originally, there were two kinds of gold cakes, weighing one or two equivalent copper coins and six times; The weight of five taels is equivalent to 30 copper coins, mainly to facilitate the trade and circulation of goods by merchants, but in a few years, the gold cakes minted are worth millions of yuan, and they all go into the cellars of the wealthy chaebols.

"The third division has to think of a way, and if it doesn't work, the Tangzhou gold mine will be stopped!" When he thought about the financial matters, Fan Zhen was annoyed, but there was nothing good to do.

"This doesn't work, to put it mildly, the forbidden army is like a gold-swallowing beast, it is useless to issue any amount of gold cakes, and you must find two typical examples to kill chickens and monkeys. In addition, find a way to exchange it with the countries of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Shuzhong, and this golden cake will still be issued. Zhang Mei has a strong financial management ability, which is on par with Li Gu, and he certainly understands the source of this problem.

A few people walked all the way, and when they were about to reach Xuanyou Gate, they met Li Gu, who looked sick and did lose a lot of weight, and slowly entered the palace with the support of an old servant. Fan Zhen walked in front, and then greeted him from afar: "The official family has been summoned for a long time, why did Wei Zhen come now and still haven't recovered?" ”

"I can't serve the official family anymore, so I beg the beggar bones to return to their hometown to recuperate!" Li Gu pushed away the old servant's hand and returned the salute slightly, looking sluggish and weak.

"How so? Now that the country is employing people, it is just a matter of cherishing the illness and living in Beijing, so why do you need to return to your hometown? You are only afraid of upsetting the officials like this. Fan Qin persuaded.

Li Gu smiled, bowed slightly and continued to move forward. In fact, he was only a minor illness and could still go to court, but last year's Huainan War delayed the fighter plane, which went against the emperor's mind, and since then he has basically been in an embarrassing state of idleness. Although Guo Rong always sent someone to summon him whenever he encountered a major event, he didn't give him any real power, and he obviously no longer trusted.

Li Gu was aggrieved and depressed, originally he was only good at military strategy, and he could be a staff adviser like Wei Renpu, but he actually commanded the army and went out, but the generals were not very obedient and lacked the ability to make decisions, and often misjudged the battle situation.

"But the princess listens to the persuasion, don't ask for resignation!" Wei Renpu was very sympathetic to Li Gu in his heart, but he couldn't help it, wouldn't it be difficult for the emperor to resign again and again, after all, he was an old minister in the period of the first emperor, and the emperor would be suspected of being mean if he allowed you to ask, so of course he would not agree.

Li Gu ignored it, and walked slowly into the palace with the help of the old servant. Wei Renpu and Wang Pu went out of the Xuanyou Gate and returned to the Privy Council, until they sat down in the signing room behind the lobby, and when the little official came in to serve tea and retreated, Wei Renpu followed and closed the door, turned around and sat down and asked, "In the apse just now, why didn't Wen Bo make a sound?" ”

Who and what are you referring to? There's a lot involved. Wang Pu rolled his eyelids and said angrily.

"What else could it be? The matter of the camp of the Western Expedition! Zhang Jianxiong moved Song Pan Jing with merit, but Zhang Yuanzhen added Taiwei and Tongping Zhangshi, but did not add a real position, is this to move the town, or to enter the political hall? Wei Renpu saw the mystery in this from the book drafted by the emperor, but it was not easy to ask at the time.

"Do you think he can enter the political hall?" Wang Pu asked rhetorically.

"Wen Su Xianggong will not agree, although I heard that Zhang Yuanzhen is not good, and he is also a square person, but after all, he is a martial artist, his background is not very good, the first emperor has a good eye, and the official family has made a lot of appointments, but he is still too young, and it is unlikely that he will enter the political hall, but it is possible to move to the town, return to Beijing or enter the privy council, but such a young hero will enter the privy council, and we will speak much heavier!" Wei Renpu thought about it, but he still couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts.

"That's it, either move the town, or conquer Huainan, the latter is more likely." Wang Pu nodded.

"Pawn the Forbidden Army again? That prestige is too high, so let's make suggestions......" Wei Renpu guessed, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, another powerful martial artist was about to be idle.

In fact, there are many old and famous generals who have been idle in these years, such as Yao Yuanfu, Wu Xingde, Guo Chongyi, etc., all of whom have come down from several dynasties, and it is difficult to reassure people that they are useful, and they themselves are not willing to make great contributions and shock the Lord with their fame, so this is very helpless.

"Speaking of what to do, you and I should first set up a budget for the number of troops in Hehuang and Songpan prefectures, and the Zhongshu and the Ministry of Officials should also prepare officials at all levels in the prefectures and counties, which is a lot of things." Wang Pu is not interested in officialdom and personnel, but he is not ignorant, but attaches more importance to practice.

At the same time, in the Fu family's mansion on Madao Street south of Gulou Street, Fu Yanlin was meeting Li Duoshou in the study, and he was also talking about Zhang Yue. Of course, Li Duoshou will have a lot of things that are inconvenient for Zhang Yue to come forward when he returns to Beijing, but it is not Zhang Yue's instructions when he comes to see Fu Yanlin, but he has met Yang Wan, and after learning some news, he made his own opinion.

Fu Yanlin lives in Tokyo and only has some idle official positions, which is actually the meaning of the Fu family's pledge in Beijing, but this is a tacit example. He is an old fritter in officialdom, and he is also good at networking, Li Duoshou does not open his mouth to get down to business, and he never asks much.

This made Li Duoshou feel like he was reporting on the military situation, and he said almost everything about the Western Expedition, and finally remembered the purpose of coming here, and seeing that the old man was full of interest, he changed his words and asked: "There is a very important thing Fu Weng should have heard, the lord is not in Beijing, Li should have reminded Mrs. Xindu County, but today I happened to pass by your mansion, so I was suddenly disturbed." ”

"Oh...... That one...... Since it's a very important matter, you might as well report it to your father-in-law! As soon as Fu Yanlin heard it, important things were often troublesome things, and she immediately played tricks to shirk it.

"Ahem...... I heard that Zhao Kuangyin, the commander of the palace, proposed to the Wei Wangfu on behalf of his third brother Zhao Guangyi, and he had already made a gift, but I don't know if there is such a thing? If he was vague with the old man again, he would be sent away, so Li Duoshou had no choice but to ask.

"Oh? There is such a thing, why is there anything wrong with that? Fu Yanlin is old and refined, and when she listens to the voice, she knows that Li Duoshou is very sensitive to this matter.

"I'm afraid it's very inappropriate, what is the intention of my father-in-law, Li still doesn't know, but he will definitely not approve. In this way, Li said goodbye, and Fu Weng was exempted! ”

There is no need for a hammer to ring the drum, Li Duoshou got up and left when he said it, which caused Fu Yanlin to have a question, and he couldn't figure out what was going on for a long time, but probably he understood a little, but this matter was already in the boat, and regretting it would cost him fame, and Wei Wangfu would never want to be affected by this.
