Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo/。 qb5。 /

As Zhao Lei's most admired loyal minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan can be described as a model of famous ministers in the Northern Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan as a three-grade minister, increase the glory of the bachelor, and the monthly salary is enough to feed 100 people, but the Fan family in addition to a son and a daughter, only his stepwife, a concubine and four subordinates, originally according to Fan Zhongyan's Yulu and the population of Zhaofu, the life of the Fan family should be very rich, but Fan Zhongyan often helps the poor, and exchanges the Yulu for rice and grain to help the poor people in Bianjing, so that the Fan family has no life and lives a very hard life.

In the Fan family's study, Zhao Lei looked at the dejected Fan Zhongyan with a look of surprise and asked, "Brother Xiwen!" You said you had just been kicked out of the Imperial Palace by the official family! ”

Zhao Lei came to Fan's Mansion early in the morning, ready to persuade Fan Zhongyan not to be so stiff with Lu Yijian, but he didn't expect Fan Zhongyan to go to the Huangyi Palace in advance, Zhao Lei could only wait in Fan's Mansion, but waited for the news that Fan Zhongyan was kicked out of the Huangyi Palace by the official Zhao Zhen because of an unintentional gaffe.

"Not bad! At that time, I was so angry that I was dizzy, and took Wang Mang and Zhang Yu as examples, but Lu Yijian grabbed the handle and asked me to be released, and I had to tell who was Wang Mang who was preparing to seize power and usurp the throne, of course I couldn't say, so the officials thought that I was disturbing the court, slandering the ministers, canceling my honor as a scholar, and driving me out of the Imperial Palace. Fan Zhongyan said with a wry smile on his face.

"Brother Xiwen is reckless in this matter. Lu Yijian was able to serve one term as governor, two prime ministers, and three times as the ruler, how could it be so easy to overthrow, and Lu Yijian has always acted cautiously and done things without leakage. He is very principled, he has risen quickly after being knocked down several times, no one has ever been able to completely defeat him, and forming such a mortal enemy is not conducive to Brother Xiwen's future officialdom! Zhao Lei looked at Fan Zhongyan, who had a bitter face, and admonished.

Hearing Zhao Lei's words, Fan Zhongyan pondered for a while, picked up the teacup casually, and said with a wry smile: "I was careless, and now the official family is angry." Lu Yijian will not let go of the opportunity to fall into the well, I have offended a lot of locals over the years, any crime can make me have no place in Bianjing, it seems that I will not stay in Bianjing for a long time. ”

Fan Zhongyan's words were exchanged for Zhao Lei's sighs. He knew that Fan Zhongyan had made two big mistakes, the first was to submit a hundred official drawings and accuse the officials of delegating power, which is the most taboo thing for those in power, and the officials were already very dissatisfied with Fan Zhongyan. In addition, he made a second mistake, and even compared Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Yu and Wang Mang to the court and the official family, which made the official family seriously dissatisfied. The most depressing thing is that Fan Zhongyan not only blamed the officials, but also blamed all the officials of the court, that is, Wang Zeng, Zhang Shixun and Yan Shu and others did not dare to help Fan Zhongyan speak, for fear of becoming Wang Mang in Fan Zhongyan's mouth, such two serious mistakes. Fan Zhongyan will definitely not be able to stay in Bianjing, even Zhao Lei will not be able to protect him.

……

In the Imperial Palace, not long after Fan Zhongyan left, Lu Yijian was finally about to fall into the ground, and when the official family was angry with Fan Zhongyan, he directly kicked Fan Zhongyan out of Bianjing, saving him from being upset.

Lu Yijian knew that Fan Zhongyan had just participated in him, and if he directly participated in Fan Zhongyan at this time, he would inevitably fall into the notoriety of retaliation and narrow-mindedness, so he secretly glanced at Gao Ruone, the right secretary of his confidant minister.

The right secretary Gao Ruone and Lu Yijian have been friends for decades, and when he saw Lu Yijian's eyes, he immediately understood what was going on, sighed slightly, organized the crime of participating in Fan Zhongyan, and walked out of the column and said loudly: "Qiqi official's family!" Wechen has something to do in unison! ”

"Say!" Zhao Zhen, an official who was troubled by Fan Zhongyan's words just now, sat on the dragon chair with an expressionless face and said coldly to Gao Ruone.

"Wechen impeached Fan Zhongyan, the prefect of Kaifeng Mansion, he was originally the prefect of Kaifeng, and his powers were not divided, and he actually impeached the important ministers of the court, and he said wildly, he has committed the crime of overstepping his duties and dividing the monarch and ministers, in addition, Fan Zhongyan introduced friends to the party, chaotic government and politics, and Weichen asked the official family to order Fan Zhongyan to degrade Bianjing to show warning and return the court to a clear state!" The right secretary Gao Ruone looked at the official Zhao Zhen, and said with righteousness and awe.

In the Imperial Palace, the civil and military officials of the Great Song Dynasty heard Gao Ruone's impeachment of Fan Zhongyan, and they all felt cold, the theory of friends has always been the most vicious means of the imperial court, after all, the courtiers who are qualified to go to the palace are all old ministers who have been officials for decades, and everyone has a lot of close friends, these people belong to the category of friends, and the crime of friends has no meaning at all, it all depends on the thoughts of the officials, the officials say that you are friends, you are friends, and if you don't have friends, you don't have friends.

Gao Ruone took advantage of the official Zhao Zhen to be angry with Fan Zhongyan when he deducted a big hat from his friends, and it is very likely that he will be convicted of this crime, and whoever dares to intercede with Fan Zhongyan will be endangered by the crime of being a friend, this trick is too vicious, and the timing is too good, so that Wang Zeng, Zhang Shixun and Yan Shu and others dare not speak for Fan Zhongyan at this time.

After Gao Ruone's words were finished, there was silence in the Imperial Palace, and the eyes of all the civil and military officials were focused on the official Zhao Zhen, they knew very well that Fan Zhongyan's matter was related to the battle between Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian, because everyone knew that Fan Zhongyan must be the prime minister Wang Zeng standing behind him, and the person behind Gao Ruone was Lu Yijian.

The official Zhao Zhen sat on the dragon chair expressionlessly, but his heart was already turbulent, he originally wanted to take Lu Yijian, after all, Lu Yijian has occupied the position of prime minister for three years, and defeated his political opponent Li Di in a short time, although now there are Wang Zeng, Zhang Shixun and Yan Shu to clamp Lu Yijian, but these three years are not the same heart, and after Lu Yijian divides them, the authority will be greater, and then it is possible that the tail will not be lost.

However, Fan Zhongyan's impulse today made the official Zhao Zhen dare not act easily, if he moved Lu Yijian at this time, wouldn't he admit that Lu Yijian is Zhang Yu and he is Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, and he has to find a Wang Mang, the court may be turbulent at that time, and he will not adhere to the current national policy of balance and stability.

Fan Zhongyan is really stupid! The official Zhao Zhen thought angrily in his heart, and in a fit of anger, he decided to sacrifice Fan Zhongyan, a courtier who was always looking for trouble, and then slowly deal with Lu Yijian.

"Gan Ling! Proposed purpose, Fan Zhongyan overstepped his duties, alienated the monarch and ministers, introduced friends, confused the government, and belittled the governor of the state to show warning! The official Zhao Zhen pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice to Gan Ling, the waiter who was waiting beside him.

"And! Lu Aiqing and Wang Aiqing, the recent inefficiency of the imperial court is because of the frequent party disputes, and I order you to immediately start rectifying the party disputes and clear the atmosphere of the imperial court. The official Zhao Zhen thought about it and added to Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng.

"Enlighten the official family! The ministers have objections, but Lord Fan is angry and loses his words, which is nothing more than a big crime, and Lord Fan once wrote to the Queen Mother and the Queen, involving the affairs of the official family's mother, son, husband and wife, the official family can tolerate it generously, this time it is just an unintentional mistake, why can't the official family forgive it! During the Han Dynasty, Zhe Di attacked the Pingjin Marquis Sun Hong treacherously; During the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Zhao of Eastern Wu attacked Lu Su coarsely, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Sun Quan of Wu neither listened nor asked for guilt, both of them could be retained, leaving behind a good story through the ages, and since the official family was in power, he has been demoted several times because of his words, not the act of the peaceful and prosperous times, please take back the official Fan Zhongyan's fate! When the imperial envoy Yu Jing heard the holy decree of the official Zhao Zhen, he was anxious, and regardless of the impact of his friends, he came out to intercede for Fan Zhongyan and said.

Yu Jing's words made the official Zhao Zhen even more annoyed, and his words directly implied that the official Zhao Zhen was not a Ming Jun and was not broad-minded enough, which was no different from directly admitting that he was Fan Zhongyan's friend.

"Someone! drove Yu Jing out of the Imperial Palace, Gan Ling, and immediately ordered Yu Jing to be demoted to Yunzhou to collect liquor tax! Yu Jing's words completely angered the official Zhao Zhen, and he didn't say much, and directly kicked Yu Jing, an unlucky guy, out of Bianjing.

"Enlighten the official family! The minister also has something to say, the minister thinks that Lord Fan is loyal and upright, and should not be punished, the minister has always had a good relationship with Lord Fan and Lord Yu, since the official family demoted them to the crime of being a friend, the minister should not be spared, please punish the minister to prove the constitution! Yin Zhu saw that Fan Zhongyan and Yu Jing were demoted from Bianjing by the official Zhao Zhen one after another, and calmly and indifferently asked the official Zhao Zhen.

Of course, Yin Zhu's demonstration made the official Zhao Zhen even more angry, and with a holy decree, Yin Zhu was demoted to Yingzhou to supervise the collection of liquor taxes.

Since then, Pan Lou Sikui, except for Ouyang Xiu, who was far away in the New Army camp, the other three were once again demoted from Bianjing by the official family.

……

"What do you say? Lord Fan, Lord Yu and Lord Yin have all been demoted out of the capital by the official family, impossible, I only came out of Lord Fan's house in the morning, and I haven't heard about this matter at all! In the camp of the new army, Zhao Lei, who was discussing with seven civil and military officials in the new army, heard a report from a military commander Bo and asked in shock.

"The news came from the Chinese book, it is said that when Lord Fan left the Imperial Palace, Gao Ruone impeached Lord Fan for the crime of being a friend, and finally affected Lord Yu and Lord Yin!" The commander of the army, Bo respectfully, replied to Zhao Lei.

"How is that possible! I'm going to go to the palace to find an official comment! When Ouyang Xiu heard the news, he immediately lost his square inch and said to Zhao Lei in a panic.

"Wait! The official family has already issued an order, what reason is there to judge, the most important thing now is to find Brother Xiwen and them, see the specific situation, and then find a way to remedy it! Zhao Lei grabbed Ouyang Xiu, who was about to leave, and said to him calmly.

The army's short-lived deliberations were interrupted by the demotion of Fan Zhongyan, Yu Jing and Yin Zhu, and Zhao Lei and Ouyang Xiu went to find the three of them to discuss a remedy, and at this time, no one thought that something bigger was happening in Bianjing.
