Chapter 103: New Year's Greetings

This time Lu Yijian was obviously cheated, Wang Zeng first named Fan Zhongyan's name, that is, he knew that Lu Yijian was very jealous of Fan Zhongyan, and Lu Yijian was indeed fooled, and one sentence blocked Fan Zhongyan's way back to Beijing.

No matter how good Lu Yijian is, he is only a first minister, he is not a person who covers the sky with one hand, if he can block one Fan Zhongyan, can he still block others?

Wang Zeng recommended two people in one sentence, who are these two people?

That is the old minister of the first emperor, and if he moves out of any one of them, he is slightly older than him Lu Yi, and when they return to the capital, they can also help stabilize the government, and even suppress Lu Yijian together in some aspects at some time.

The most important thing is to let Lu Yijian share some power, saving Lu Yijian's power is too great!

Lu Yijian is a capable minister, the words "great loyalty" and "great traitor" can be used on him, and Lu Yijian is still a person who likes to do things.

For example, for the case of the Qian family, he did not hesitate to brave the heavy snow to travel from the capital to Hangzhou, and there were three provinces and six departments, almost no matter how big or small Lu Yijian would ask, Lu Yijian was so diligent in politics, and he also won the favor of many people, such as Liu E and Zhao Zhen's mother and son.

Of course, sometimes Lu Yijian's governing methods were indeed too harsh and evil, which was why he criticized those gentlemen and old ministers.

In fact, there is another reason why Lu Yijian works so hard to deal with government affairs, that is, Lu Yijian is already obsessed with the grasp and control of power, and he is afraid that he will not be able to do it for a long time, because in front of him, Ding Wei, Wang Ruoqin and Wang Zeng, these people have all been Zaifu, but they have not been in power for a long time.

Among them, Wang Zeng took the initiative to abdicate himself, and when Wang Zeng stepped down from the position of Zaifu, he also strongly recommended Lu Yijian to take the throne. The other two were well-known traitors. Especially Wang Ruoqin, this person can be said to have done all the bad things, and he is innocent of death.

As for Ding Wei, he and Wang Ruoqin are both raccoon dogs, but Ding Wei is still alive, but he has no chance to come out.

Because Lu Yijian didn't allow it. And not only Lu Yijian, even those gentlemen and ministers will not allow it.

Born in sorrow and died in peace, Lu Yijian is convinced of this truth, so after he took the throne, in order to stabilize his position, he can be said to have worked hard to assist Liu E and Zhao Zhen's mother and son to preside over the government, and even many things can be handed over to those young courtiers to deal with, and he Lu Yijian will sometimes snatch things up and do it.

In fact, Lu Yijian's mind was that he would rather do more by himself. You can't give others a chance to take the lead, because if someone else does, it means that it will pose a threat to your own position!

Looking back on Lu Yijian's career, it is indeed quite inspiring.

Although it is said that Lu Yijian's uncle is a famous generation of ministers in the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty is no longer the world of the scholar clan, and the imperial court selects talents through the imperial examination, and Lu Yijian's father was only a staff member of a county order in eastern Sichuan before, but even so. Lu Yijian still climbed to his current position step by step.

In the early years, Lu Yijian was favored by Wang Zeng and other old ministers, and there was naturally a reason, when Ding Wei and Wang Ruoqin, two traitorous ministers, made the Great Song Dynasty into a miasma. Lu Yijian went against the current, once impeached Ding Wei's henchmen, and was also a thorn in Ding Wei's side, a generation of famous ministers Kou Zhun exonerated and clarified the charges, under the circumstances at that time, Lu Yijian's behavior would naturally arouse the appreciation of these direct ministers.

But as Lu Yijian's power grew. Lu Yijian's person has gradually changed.

Until now, Wang Zeng and other old ministers had to turn their heads to restrain him Lu Yijian, especially after the contradiction between Lu Yijian and Fan Zhongyan became more and more acute, this situation became even more serious.

Lu Yijian was also very unhappy, he knew that Wang Zeng had such a hand behind. He might as well let Fan Zhongyan return to Beijing!

At least compared to Chen Yaozuo and Zhang Shixun, Fan Zhongyan's influence in the capital is much smaller than these two, and no matter how favored Fan Zhongyan is, it is impossible to squeeze himself as the prime minister in a short time.

What's more, with Fan Zhongyan's temper, how can he be the prime minister?

A person who does not know the way of officialdom and only knows that he is honest and strict is indeed a good minister, but he will definitely not be a long-term prime minister!

Privately, if Fan Zhongyan comes back, and then sends him to Caozhou and Puzhou to preside over disaster relief, maybe Fan Zhongyan will bring Ye Heng over, which can also add some credit to Ye Heng.

The last time the Qian family was in trouble, Ye Heng, the driving force behind the scenes, was not mentioned on the surface, and Fan Zhongyan and Lu Yijian thought of it together.

Although Ye Heng has a great credit for overthrowing the Qian family, but this reputation is not very good, plus there are many nobles and ministers of the previous dynasty in the capital, although they are now all interested in pleasure, but for Ye Heng, a person who has not yet entered the official career, it is not so good to offend these people.

returned home sullenly, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw a guest at home, and that person was still Ye Heng!

Today, Ye Heng wore a light blue robe, and it looked like the whole person's complexion was also good, his face was full of red light, and he looked even more handsome, he was chatting with Lu Gongbi in the hall, and after Lu Yijian came back, the two hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Why are you the only one at home?"

Lu Yijian didn't pay attention to Ye Heng first, but asked Lu Gongbi.

Lu Gongbi replied: "Mother and the third brother of the little sister are in the backyard, but the eldest brother is out!" ”

Lu Yijian frowned, he was in a bad mood, so he scolded: "You big brother, you also run around in the first year of junior high school!" ”

"Father!"

Lu Gongbi hurriedly changed the topic and said to Lu Yijian: "Persist in coming to the door to pay New Year's greetings!" ”

"Hmm!"

Lu Yijian looked at Ye Heng and took the main position.

Ye Heng said to Lu Yijian: "Lu Xianggong, the students wish the New Year a spring breeze......

"Hmm!"

Lu Yijian nodded to Ye Heng with a teachable look, then looked at Lu Gongbi again, and asked strangely: "What are you still doing in a daze, there are guests at home, why don't you invite your mother and them out?" ”

"This ......"

Lu Gongbi looked at Ye Heng in embarrassment, and didn't dare to continue.

Ye Heng said: "Lu Xianggong, it was the student who didn't let Brother Baochen disturb the lady and the little lady, that's right!" The students heard that this time the Yellow River burst its banks, and the people suffered very seriously, and even the Yellow River Cultural Society was not spared, so they didn't know...... Can the students ask? ”

"What do you want to know?"

Lu Yijian was a little unhappy, Ye Heng is here to pay New Year's greetings?

Although there were some gifts on the table, and Ye Heng came to the door on the first day of the first lunar month, in Lu Yijian's opinion, how could Ye Heng come to the house to inquire about the Yellow River Cultural Association? (To be continued......)
