Chapter 365: Paving the Way for Execution

There was chaos in the court, first it was Sima Guang's impeachment, then it became a contradiction between the imperial history platform and the officials, and then it led to the rumors of Ouyang Xiu, which caused Wu Chong's anger. Wu Chong, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" pavilion, smashed Jiang Zhiqi with a wat board in his hand, and there were even officials in the court who stopped the persuasion and blamed each other. Wang Pan has seen this kind of scene in the news in his previous life, such as at the Executive Council of Taiwan, or at the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States. The literary struggle finally evolved into a martial arts, but fortunately, there was no one who threw shoes at Zhao Ji. Even so, Wang Jian couldn't cry or laugh, let alone Zhao Ji, who had just ascended the throne, how could he have seen this formation? Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang are both sixty or seventy years old, and they have no strength to manage, so they have to watch from a distance, for fear that they will not be injured and splashed with blood. Sima Guang, who caused this dispute, hurriedly came to the king's side: "King Zhennan, what do you think is good?" ”

"Stop arguing." Zhao Ji tried to show some dragon power, but his young voice couldn't suppress the louder and louder quarrels.

Wang took two steps forward and walked in front of Zhao Ji: "Holy Lord, let's retreat first!" ”

Zhao Ji stood up: "Please ask the two prime ministers, the official department Shangshu and the king of Zhennan, to discuss the matter in the vertical arch hall after retiring from the dynasty." Retreat from the court! With that, he flicked the sleeves of his robe and turned and walked towards the apse.

"Two prime ministers, Sima Shangshu, please!" And the king did not look at the people who were still quarrelling, but when he had made a request, he and the other three went to the hall of the arch in obedience to the holy commandment.

The emperor is gone, and gradually the ministers who feel that it is none of their business have also dispersed, Ouyang Xiu pulled up Wu Chong and said: "Let's not reason with them, I will definitely play the crime of slander against Yushitai!" The two of them also left the palace in a rage.

Jiang Zhiqi said behind them: "Hmph, are you afraid that you won't make it?" Xue Liangru, you are his wife's cousin, can you tell me? Well? What about Xue Liangru? When he turned around to look for it, Xue Liangru knew that he was in trouble, and he had already quietly gone down to the palace. Jiang Zhiqi stomped his feet, saying in his heart that he was unladylike when he met someone, and he was even more depressed when he remembered the impeachment of Sima Guang just now, and there was no one around him to persuade him, so he had to sigh and retreat from the hall sullenly.

In the vertical arch hall, Zhao Ji didn't seem to have recovered from the scene just now, he sat there dejectedly, this is very worrying about the affairs of the world, and then there is such a group of officials. In the long run, the imperial court has not become a busy city, but fortunately, the Great Song Dynasty is heavy on literature and light on martial arts, and most of them are usually noisy and goose fights, and if it is a Manchu general, it is even more fiery temper, which makes him, the newly enthroned emperor, how to hold his position.

Prime Minister Zeng Gongliang said: "The Holy Lord has called a few of us here, is there anything to discuss?" ”

Zhao Ji shook his head and said angrily and helplessly: "What kind of system, what kind of system?!" This discussion of political affairs turned out to be a rumor in the market, is this above the court? Tell me what is the use of keeping such officials. ”

Zeng Gongliang and Han Qi bowed their heads at the same time and were silent. Zhao Ji turned to Sima Guang again and said, "Sima Shangshu, you are a good participant!" Now, what do you say? ”

Sima Guang listened to Zhao Ji's tone, the word "good" seemed to be squeezed out by gritting his teeth, and he wanted to learn from Zeng Gongliang and Han Qi to bow their heads and be silent. But he thought that even if this matter came out of the song, it was not a way not to speak, and besides, he had some other thoughts in his heart. Song Yingzong did not fulfill his promise to himself when he was in power, and now he can be regarded as a veteran of the Three Dynasties like Zeng Gongliang, Han Qi and others, not to mention that what he did was also worried about him in the Great Song Dynasty, so he looked up at Shenzong Zhao Ji and said: "Holy Lord, I also have a reason to join them." The assassination of the crown prince has been solved under the auspices of King Zhennan. And he said that he deliberately mentioned the king, and went to look at the king, but the king did not look at him, but took what he said. There was no way, Sima Guang had to continue, and told Zhao Ji everything he heard in the Zhennan Palace.

Zhao Ji nodded for a while, and frowned for a while. Even the two prime ministers, who were silent just now, looked at each other, as if it was not easy to put this case on anyone.

When Sima Guang finished speaking, he let out a long breath and said, "Holy Lord, now that this Lin Bo is still in the Zhennan Palace, how to rule can only listen to the holy will." ”

Zhao Ji once again surrendered his gaze to the king's side, and said in an almost pleading tone: "King Zhennan, I know you must already have an idea, tell the official family quickly!" ”

The king smiled slightly: "Holy Lord, three ministers, don't you know until now, what is the key to the situation in the court today?" ”

"This matter is mixed together, the old minister has no clue, King Zhennan, you can talk about it!" Zeng Gongliang said, and then Han Qi also nodded.

Wang looked directly at Zhao Ji and said: "Today's chaos is chaotic, the emperor's prestige is not enough!" ”

This is a crime, if it comes out of someone else's mouth, it is also a crime to not lose your head, but this is said from the mouth of the king, Zhao Ji frowned and asked seriously: "Then the king of Zhennan said, how can I not be majestic enough in the official family?" ”

"It's no wonder that you're a saint. I would like to ask Han Xiang and Zeng Xiang: The two have been in charge for many years, do you feel powerless? ”

Han Qi Zeng Gongliang nodded, and listened to the king continue: "Let me ask the two prime ministers, can you manage the military?" The two shook their heads; Then the king asked, "Can you take care of your finances?" "The same is the shaking of the head; Wang Pansan asked: "Can the two prime ministers manage personnel?" The two men shook their heads again.

Zhao Ji seemed to be ignorant, so he asked, "Could it be that the king of Zhennan means that the prime minister is inactive?" ”

As soon as he said this, Han Qi couldn't hold back: "King Zhennan, what you said is not right, today's court affairs are not foreseeable by the two of us!" Although we did not dissuade, the responsibility is not ours! ”

Wang Fang laughed when he heard this: "Don't be impatient, I haven't finished speaking." What I just said is not the responsibility of the two, the current three provinces, in fact, only the Zhongshu Province is in the palace, and the two provinces of Shangshu have been moved outside the palace, so only the Zhongshu Province takes the decree separately and is called the political affairs hall. It is also called the two houses with the Privy Council. The Privy Council is in charge of the military, and the Zhongshu is the prime minister with a unique position. The governors of the two provinces no longer heard the supreme orders of the government. However, the Zhongshu and the Privy Council are opposed, that is, the prime minister is not in charge of the military. On finance again: The so-called three departments -- the first is the household department, the second is the salt and iron department, and the third is the degree branch department, which is in charge of the economic cashier. Now that the status of the three divisions has been raised, it is extremely unreasonable for them to independently control the country's finances. Finally, when it comes to employing people: it should be under the authority of the prime minister. Who should be used, what officials should be promoted, this is the matter of the Ministry of Scribes under the Prime Minister, but this dynasty has set up another examination institute. The examination course was equivalent to Quanxu, and it was later renamed the Inquisitionist Yuan. He also divided the court of judges into two courts, the east court, the east court, and the west court. And don't set up three classes of courtyards to Quanheng a generation of inner court worship and palace officials. In this way, the right to employ people is not in the prime minister. Am I right, Prime Ministers? ”

This analysis has convinced Zeng Gongliang and Han Qi, and even Sima Guang, who has always looked up to the position of prime minister, also cast strange glances at Zeng Gongliang and Han Qi. Isn't it useful to be a prime minister? Wang Bi didn't want to leave this conclusion for everyone, he then said: "The responsibility for today's situation does not lie with the prime minister, but today's affairs involve personnel, and the accusation of the imperial history platform should have pointed out the emperor's shortcomings, and had the privilege of exonerating the guilty and assisting the prime minister in governing the government." But now that the Imperial Historical Observatory has become the duty of supervising the prime minister and officials impeaching the prime minister and officials, it has naturally become a beauty difference that only focuses on the faults of others and impeaches others at will. Therefore, when Sima Shangshu impeached Yu Shitai, there would be such a big wave, and in the face of such chaos, the two prime ministers no longer had the ability to control the situation. The prime minister is the emperor's right-hand man, and if his left and right arms are broken, what majesty does the emperor have. ”

In the face of Wang's explanation, everyone was convinced, and Zhao Ji couldn't help but praise: "King Zhennan's analysis is very reasonable, I didn't expect that the origin here is so deep." But I don't know if the king of Zhennan has a way to let the official family rebuild the dragon power? ”

"Absolutely! Holy Lord, you have just ascended the throne, and I think the first thing you should do is to take advantage of Sima Shangshu's performance to rectify the discipline of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China and thoroughly investigate the corruption and bribery of officials. If the people's hearts are corrected, the people's words will be corrected, and then the responsibilities of the prime minister and various ministries will be redefined, and the prime minister will naturally have room to play, and he will be able to re-establish the prestige of the saint! The king carefully considered every sentence and said it sentence by sentence. And Zhao Ji and the others are also following Wang Bei's train of thought, moving forward step by step.

Of course, the two prime ministers were happy, and the words of the king almost expressed the hearts of the two people for many years. But Sima Guang pondered for a moment and asked: "Holy Lord, what King Zhennan said is right, it's just how to execute, especially since this case involves the descendants of the Chai family." ”

Zhao Ji looked at Wang Bian again, and Wang Bian said calmly: "Yesterday's conversation, Sima Shangshu also said just now, it is very simple to punish the crime. It's just that now Lin Bo is willing not to return the Danshu iron scroll in the name of the descendants of the Chai family in the future, and he will not receive the gift of the imperial court. This is the attitude, if the saint can start from himself and take the descendants of the Chai family as ordinary people, then he will not be able to make any waves in the future. ”

"King Zhennan, what do you mean by being an ordinary person?" Han Qi asked.

"You can test your fame and serve the court!"

Zeng Gongliang also said, "Doesn't this mean that the saint does not respect the ancestral teachings? ”

Wang next to him smiled: "Didn't Zu Xun also say that the descendants of the Chai family, since he is willing to give up this identity, why can't the saints treat everyone equally?" Buddhism is still purifying sentient beings, can't I, the son of heaven in the Great Song Dynasty, give sentient beings a chance to serve the court? ”

Several people looked at Zhao Ji together, and Zhao Ji said with understanding: "The official family thinks that what King Zhennan said is right, so listen to King Zhennan!" For bribery, give me a strict investigation! This Lin Bo is not heinous, now is the time of amnesty in the world, in order to show the emperor's grace, only he did what he said, and the official family will not pursue it. Also, how to deal with the matter of the Golden Lotus Society is also up to the king of Zhennan. Leave the king of Zhennan, and you can step aside. After making the decision, Zhao Ji was much more relaxed.

Wang Bi was secretly proud in his heart, Zhao Ji listened to him, this was the result he wanted; At the same time, when his father becomes prime minister again, if the prime minister is still the status quo, it will be a great obstacle to his father's domination, and what he has to do now is to pave the way and clear the way.
