Chapter Twenty-Three: Falling Flowers and Birds Crying in Chaos Fifteen

As Li Zongmin's sworn friend and close friend, Yang Rushi followed in the footsteps of his allies and left Chang'an one after another. However, he got a lower official position, which was a county order, a small county order. The magnates of Chang'an, who once called for wind and rain, now go to the remote Kaijiang to make a small county order, how can you make him embarrassed?

As the initiator of the attack, Duan Wenchang left Chang'an refreshed. In his eunuch bag full of gold, silver, pearls and jade, there are also calligraphy and paintings from celebrities, priceless celebrity calligraphy and paintings. is far away from the rights and wrongs of Chang'an, and it is far away from the public's field of vision. is far from the public eye, which also avoids the risk of being counterattacked by the opponent to the greatest extent. Now, Duan Wenchang could laugh and smile contentedly.

Yes, Duan Wenchang was very proud, because his last blow before leaving the capital not only got out of the evil breath in his chest as he wished, but also successfully escaped, avoiding the opponent's counterattack, and also piggybacking on his feet to make a windfall, a big windfall. You say, will he be happy?

That's right, Duan Wenchang is the beneficiary of the Changqing first year tribute case, and he is the only beneficiary. It's just that the federation that hurt him, the stupid Yuan Zhen, and the equally stupid Li Shen.

Taking advantage of the favor and trust of the Son of Heaven, Yuan Zhi and Li Shen teamed up to attack Li Zongmin and Yang Rushi, and expelled their political enemies from Chang'an as they wished. It's just that they were complacent, and suddenly looked back, but they were pleasantly surprised to find that they had offended someone, a person who should never be offended, Pei Du.

In fact, it's just a matter of offending a Pei Du, although there will be trouble, a lot of trouble, but after all, they still have the Son of Heaven above them, and they are covered by the Emperor Laozi, so it shouldn't be a big deal. The point is that while offending Pei Du, Yuan Zhen and Li Shen also offended others, not one, two, but a group, a large group, because it was a class, a class with a lot of power. Scholar class. Because, fundamentally speaking, the entire class of scholars and doctors is the beneficiary of the unspoken rules of scientific research, and Yuan Zhen and Li Shen are the destroyers of the rules, which will naturally cause their dissatisfaction. From then on, in Chang'an, Yuan Zhen and Li Shen, who were already isolated, will be in a more difficult situation.

This is a bureaucratic battle with nothing to do, and both sides of the prosecution and the organizers have ulterior motives. Defendants involved in cheating should certainly be condemned and punished. The attempt to ask for help, Duan Wenchang and Li Shen, who were embarrassed and angry, seemed to be unable to speak of justice. Only Yuan Zhen is dressed in a coat of justice, but its purpose seems to be more filthy and despicable.

In any case, because of Qian Hui's forbearance and responsibility, the Changqing first year tribute case has finally come to an end, and it doesn't seem to have caused a bigger turmoil. Chang'an will return to tranquility again. Actually, otherwise, the battle is not over, but has just begun.

Since then, Chang'an officialdom has become a veritable battlefield, a battlefield for officials to fight each other. Since then, the Tang Empire has entered a new era, an era of officials crowding officials and fighting officials. Either you squeeze me, or I squeeze you, either I fight you, or I fight you. In addition to using knives and guns, they also use gluttony, knives and guns are terrible, but gluttony is especially difficult to prevent. In the deceitful officialdom struggle, Chang'an inevitably degenerated, and the entire scholar class collectively degenerated.

Now, however, we have to look away for the time being and focus on distant Hebei. Because, Hebei, the never-ending Hebei, has an accident, something big.
