Zheng Lang's eyes looked at Da Song again.

He still has some friendship with Da Song, but this glance is quite a warning. In this era, the eldest brother is the father, the eldest sister-in-law is the mother, and your younger brother has some excessive practices, and it is not right to be the elder brother.

In fact, this is Zhao Zhen's cover-up, with Xiao Song's salary, no less than thirty-six dishes per meal, thirty-two maids in the family, and every day he has to find the most beautiful popular leaders outside, not one or two, but dozens, to have fun with everyone. Even the former prime ministers of the dynasty, Lu Mengzheng and Kou Zhun, although extravagant, could not reach this point. The big and small Song brothers are not like themselves, their family background is acceptable, they are from poor backgrounds, this is the problem. Don't make comparisons, just with Zheng Lang's income today, if you play like Xiao Song, you will definitely lose money. It's not a joke, don't mention eating and drinking, these heads of the capital are also very expensive, shouting more than a dozen heads to get together, at least a thousand times a night. How much income does Zheng Lang have to play?

A word of warning, let go of the big and small songs. Then he said: "Although Your Majesty treats the world with kindness, this world is not the world of scholars, and the duty of scholars is to govern the country and secure the people, but Your Majesty has forgotten the roots of his ancestors and treated scholars with kindness, but he does not know that the people are the foundation of the world. ”

Zhao Zhen likes to be abused by ministers, Zheng Lang said this, maybe Zhao Zhen will like it...... Zheng Lang naturally did what he liked, and continued: "There is nothing wrong with treating scholars and doctors well, and they will be paid high salaries and honest, so that they will no longer be corrupt and accept bribes, and handle government affairs fairly." As far as the minister's salary is concerned, if you put aside the industry, it is only the salary, which may be twenty times that of Yang Guozhong. ”

Actually, no, Li Longji gave Yang Guozhong all kinds of rewards. and Yang Guozhong's land that was privately swallowed by his power, and his income was far higher than Zheng Lang's income. But just in terms of salary, Zheng Lang said. There is no need. The highest annual salary of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty was only one or two thousand, which could only reach one-twentieth of Zheng Lang.

"If a high salary is not cheap, what good is it for the imperial court to spend nearly 30 million yuan a year. This salary expense alone is far more than nearly twice the annual income of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Don't compare, a comparison is shocking.

Zheng Lang's eyes swept over Da Song and Xiao Song again, and a trace of shame flashed in Da Song's eyes, he was still a loyal minister. There was a slight resentment in Xiao Song's eyes. Zheng Lang saw it and didn't make a sound. Since you are resentful, when Bao Heizi canines you in the future, I don't mind falling into the well!

Skip. Not much to say. Zheng Lang said slowly: "Your Majesty, in the past two years, the corruption of the government has become more serious. Not to mention anything else, the minister sent the Khitan, and the Khitan tried to keep the minister. At the moment of life and death, the minister implored His Majesty to let Zhang Kang go to the northeast of the Khitan and cooperate with the minister to escape. The matter was confidential. The only people who know are His Majesty and Zhang Kang, Zhang Kang went to the northeast, and then it leaked out soon after, and someone released a rumor at the border, and there was a police in Khitan. There is only a difference of two or three hours, and the minister will not be allowed to return. The rule of the officials is so dark, it has never been seen in the ages. ”

After saying that, he snickered in his heart.

Jia Changchao let him step on the mud, and said: "As Bao Zheng said, as long as one or two out of ten, this person must not stay." His Majesty took the four glaring three tigers as a warning, and the four glaring three tigers only harshly exploited the powerful, but did not harsh the people, so he degraded a small state for it. Wang Kui is like this, how can Your Majesty sit idly by? Such officials sit idly by, and the ministers do not know how the country is governed. This minister is quite puzzled, will His Majesty scatter beans into soldiers, and turn stones into gold, and do not need courtiers to be good? ”

Bao Zheng's cannon beating Wang Kui had no effect, and Zheng Lang's cannon beating Wang Kui was not trivial.

Zhao Zhen was helpless, and he also heard Zheng Lang's words, when Jia Chang was in power, he made the officials corrupt, and the rule of officials could not be reversed if they were not severely punished. After thinking about it, he said: "Degrade Wang Kui as the governor of Yuanzhou." ”

It's hard work.

Above Yuanzhou is Meishanman, and next to it is the Kuizhou Tian family, no one wants to go to serve as the governor of this state, so that this official position has been vacant for a long time. With Wang Kui's various practices, there is no doubt that he will be sent to death. …,

Zheng Lang stepped back satisfied.

The old bag is more satisfied, and the same retreats.

Zheng Lang helped Bao Zheng this time, it was by no means to buy Bao Zheng, Bao Zheng can't be a myth, but it's not easy to buy Bao Zheng.

The main thing is to reverse the current feminine political style, blow more masculinity, and in addition, see if Bao Zhengcang can sell a little favor when he beats Zhang Fangping in the future. But Zheng Lang is also paying attention to this matter, and he can't let Zhang Fangping be spilled because of this.

For the big and small songs, Zheng Lang did not delve into it. The one who came forward was only for Wang Kui, and he stopped at a taste.

It's very measured, why do you need to make so many enemies.

But in the court, it is impossible to know it, and soon, Zheng Lang tasted the bitterness.

In Xifu, he gradually became familiar with the affairs of Xifu and began to deal with government affairs. An incident happened in the court, and Ye Qingchen changed from the Zhiqing Prefecture Hanlin Bachelor Hubu Shilang to the Yongxing Military Road Deployment Headquarters to pacify the Yongxing Army. Transfers were very normal in the Song Dynasty. However, for Ye Qingchen, it was very abnormal, and Zhao Zhen also felt this and awarded him the position of counselor. Chen Zhizhong said: "Therefore, the two systems have moved from Zhongxing Lang to the left and right Shilang, and now they have moved to the doctor, who is too good, and begging and ordering is also a bachelor of Longtu Pavilion. ”

It's okay to move, it's too fast, it's not appropriate, Zhao Zhen is permissioned.

Since it was done according to the previous practice, then according to the previous practice, the new Zhiyongxing Army, when there should be some rewards, Chen Zhizhong said: "The Qing ministers have been rewarded recently, and they should not be given." ”

Zhao Zhen has made Chen Zhizhong the prime minister, and he wants to establish his prestige.

Ye Qingchen's virtue is good, and he no longer cares about these rewards. But when I mention this reward, my eyes are full of water, and there are words of suffering. It's not that there is a reward for moving knowledge, but that there are too many of them.

Because of his disagreement with Lu Yijian, Ye Qingchen demoted the three envoys, wandered a few places, and was a transfer envoy for Shaanxi, and had a meritorious role in repairing the Sanbai Canal, but under the pressure of Lu Yijian, he wandered again, and later his father died and went home to worry. After the mourning period, the court revived. Sima Guang wrote in the Shushui Chronicles that the contradiction between the two was Chen Zhizhong's appearance, Ye Qingchen's grass words were not beautiful, and Chen Zhizhong was jealous, which was wrong, Chen Zhizhong's words were very exquisite, and Ye Qingchen did not serve as the chief of knowledge at this time. But the contradiction between the two is indeed due to word making.

In the first year of Kangding, Chen Zhizhong dismissed the prime minister, and the words were indeed written by Ye Qingchen, which was derogatory and exaggerated, which made Chen Zhizhong very dissatisfied, so the contradiction arose. After Ye Qingchen recovered. He knew Yangzhou with a bachelor's degree in Hanlin, and soon changed his knowledge to Pizhou. Ye Qingchen is not happy, how long will I wander like this. After passing through the Beijing Division, Zhao Zhen said that the minister spoke on behalf of the king. Don't dare to be beautiful, when you are in the middle of the phase, there is nothing to say about your virtue. Zhizhong thought that he was a resentful minister, so he moved from Yangzhou to Pizhou in midsummer, thousands of miles by land and water, and the minister was innocent, but His Majesty mourned.

It can't be said that it is wrong, how far is it from Yangzhou to Shaanxi. There are thousands of miles of land and water. Besides, Ye Qingchen is getting older, and he feels tired if he wanders like this. Zhao Zhen sympathized and changed to know Lanzhou, but it didn't take long, and he changed to Qingzhou. Zhao Zhen asked Cheng Lin to move from the Yongxing Army to Qingzhou. Chen Zhizhong relocated Ye Qingchen to the Yongxing Army.

It is customary in the imperial court that every time you move, you must give some relocation fees and travel expenses, but Ye Qingchen migrated too often. The front just gave, and then moved to other places again, so Chen Zhizhong said, don't give, give it in front, reward and save it.

Who can afford this drift?

Ye Qingchen was very angry, and different, in terms of qualifications, he was the third envoy very early, but the opportunity was not compatible, and he was not much worse than Chen Zhizhong. Passing through the capital from Qingzhou, Yu Chao asked for the right, and stepped forward to count the shortcomings of Chen Zhizhong, but Zhao Zhen did not listen. Ye Qingchen was furious, and he resigned that the master of Longtu Pavilion would not worship. Zhao Zhen appeased, rewarded generously, and did not accept it.

In some ways, the Song Dynasty Wenchen was very bullish.

Zheng Lang said a fair word: "Your Majesty, Ye Qingchen has been tossing and turning too often over the years, this person is a superior candidate regardless of his morality or the ability to govern, and it is useless to do so." And this person is a unique tree, and he never forms a party for personal gain, which is commendable. When the minister knew Hangzhou, he was the transit envoy of Hangzhou, and the minister saw with his own eyes that the officials were quite good and conscientious, lest they live up to the trust of the saints. Later, he presided over the affairs of Sanbaiqu in Shaanxi and made a lot of contributions. Please think twice, Your Majesty. ”…,

Said a word truthfully.

Even a minister like Ye Qingchen is not easy to use, what kind of person to use, is it possible to wait for Wang Kui to repent?

In terms of relationship, he and Ye Qingchen can only be said to be not evil, nor can they be said to be good friends. He didn't have much contact with Chen Zhizhong, but his disciple Yan Rong was Chen Zhizhong's son-in-law, and his attitude was even more fair.

Besides, Zheng Lang has a big plan and doesn't want to enter this whirlpool. It's better to do something practical quietly.

But his fair words changed the nature of other people's mouths.

Xia Zhu's opportunity came, and he walked out of the train and said: "Your Majesty, the drought in Shaanxi, the people's sentiment is not boiling, there is no other reason, one is to work for relief, the reason for the settlement of the displaced people, and the second is the work of Sanbaiqu, Sanbaiqu The world thinks that the ministers and Zheng Lang and Fan Zhongyan are the work, wrong, the ministers are only the work of planning, and the main thing is the power of the Qing ministers. Since the Qing ministers were the envoys of the two Zhejiang, they have made great achievements wherever they have passed, but they have been victimized by traitorous ministers and their political achievements have been buried. The minister sighed for it. According to the convention, the doctor must not be moved, but the Qing minister was the third envoy a few years ago, according to the convention, why should he be adrift, and the minister is not incomprehensible. ”

It's also a way of saying, isn't it according to convention, Ye Qingchen was the third envoy very early, and what advice to the doctor can also be done. Not to mention the doctors, qualifications, and political achievements, he is not a Yongxing military transfer envoy now, even if he enters the two governments as a deputy minister, it is not an exaggeration.

Zheng Lang shuddered, and before Xia Zhu finished speaking, he returned to the train.

In fact, some ministers in the court have inexplicable grievances, such as Zheng Lang and Ouyang Xiu, and after a few hundred years, future generations will find it very incomprehensible.

The same is true for Chen Zhizhong and Ye Qingchen.

Ye Qingchen is a good minister, and Chen Zhizhong's ability to serve as prime minister is slightly lacking, but he is also a good minister, but the two have a grudge that outsiders don't understand very well. Zheng Lang's advice is mainly to want Ye Qingchen not to drift like this in the future, and to say a fair word, not to Chen Zhizhong. However, after Xia Zhu's addition, Zheng Lang is likely to form a bond with Chen Zhizhong soon.

Well, I'd better retreat.

The ball was kicked back to Zhao Zhen.

Zheng Lang also looked at Zhao Zhen, and actually thought about it, don't envy being the emperor, it's not easy to be a good emperor, look at Zhao Zhen, what does this emperor mean?

Zhao Zhen also has Zhao Zhen's means, his magic weapon, silence is golden.

The turmoil was resolved, Zheng Lang looked at Chen Zhizhong again, and he didn't know what Chen Zhizhong thought about him.

The chaotic court, the court meeting dispersed, Zheng Lang buried his head in the affairs of the Xifu, he was waiting for the opportunity, ready to consult the affairs of the spy camp. At the beginning, the private salt channel was left in order to facilitate some secret agents to infiltrate the Western Xia and induce some tribes in the Western Xia to rebel, and then Zheng Lang Ding was worried, and the channel stayed, providing a large amount of private salt for the Western Xia to flow into the Song Dynasty every year, but the secret agent did not do a good job. As a privy envoy, it just so happened that Li Yuanhao was nostalgic for the Wuyi clan, and the national politics were mediocre, and it was possible that he had a hot fight with Yeli Wangrong's wife at this time, and the opportunity was rare. The special battalion must be tightened.

After the Khitan party, Zheng Lang did more and more steadily, this stability has advantages, high success rate, but flaws and slow speed. The stability made Pang Ji feel daunted.

Carefully planned, in order to seek support, but also modestly consulted Pang Ji's opinion.

The two discussed for most of the day, and Zheng Lang was on duty. As soon as he left Donghua Gate, a eunuch stopped him and whispered: "The slave is Liang Huaiji." ”

The name is very familiar, Zheng Lang thought about it again, but he couldn't remember it. He had just been stabbed by Xia Zhu, and his mind had not yet settled down, so he asked suspiciously: "Liang Neishi, what's the matter?" ”

"His Royal Highness is waiting for Zheng Xianggong upstairs," Liang Huaiji pouted at a teahouse behind him.

Zheng Lang stared at this chamberlain again, his appearance was very delicate, his bearing was good, and his conversation and demeanor were very quiet, but he still didn't understand, and asked, "That Your Highness?" ”…,

"Fukang ......"

Zheng Lang's head was sweating a little, how could this little Lori run out of the palace and stay in this teahouse waiting for herself. Thinking about it, I wondered in my heart whether to call the guards to catch this little Lori back to the palace, and after thinking about it, I still let Fukang go, and go to the teahouse to see first.

was taken by Liang Huaiji to an elegant room on the second floor of the teahouse, and Liang Huaiji consciously retreated.

Only Zheng Lang and Zhao Niannu were left in the room, Zhao Niannu cheered and said, "Zheng Xianggong, I didn't expect me to meet you alone." ”

Zheng Lang was about to faint to death, what is this little guy, and asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, why did you leave the palace?" ”

Zhao Niannu didn't answer, but asked, "Are you my guardian knight?" ”

"Yes...... But you have to go back to the palace, the outside world is very dangerous, anything can happen, and a small chamberlain can't protect your safety. ”

"You haven't done the knightly salute yet."

Zheng Lang made her very embarrassed, there was no way, she had to coax her back to the palace, and she couldn't come forward directly, there would be criticism, not only for herself, but also for Fukang. He gave a knightly salute and said, "Your Highness, go back to the palace." ”

He knelt down on one leg, there was no difference in height, and Zhao Niannu came to him and looked at him.

Zheng Lang was even more speechless, I gave a knightly salute, you have to show the demeanor of a nobleman, take my hand and let me get up, but this little guy didn't speak, and then looked at Zheng Lang, the closer he looked, Zheng Lang had no choice but to say: "Your Highness, the guardian knight asks Your Highness to return to the palace." ”

When he said this, Zheng Lang himself was speechless.

Zhao Niannu looked at him with a smile, and suddenly made a movement that Zheng Lang didn't expect, stretched out his body, and kissed Zheng Lang lightly on the mouth with his lips. With this kiss, Zheng Lang fainted directly, and all of a sudden, the person was lying on the floor. (To be continued) RQ
