The first important minister

It is said that Wang Jun and Guo Wei's daily meeting procedures are almost the same:

Jun: "Your Majesty, Zheng Renzhi is very annoying, this person must not be reused" Wei "I also don't reuse him..."Jun" I mean must not be reused... In other words, you can never reuse "Wei"? Ahh Oh well."

Jun "Your Majesty, Li Chongjin is very annoying, this person must not be reused" Wei "I didn't reuse him..."Jun "I mean must not be reused... In other words, you can never reuse "Wei"? Ahh Oh well."

Jun: "Your Majesty, Xiang Xun is also very annoying... Ah yes! I admit it! Actually, I just hate it very much. So this person can never reuse "Wei"? Ahh All right. Since you've said so, don't reuse him... But I want to reiterate: I don't use him very much..."

The sun rises and the moon sets, and the conversation between Wang Jun and Guo Wei continues every day. Even when Chai Rong, the heir of the Great Zhou, repeatedly asked to enter the court, because Wang Jun obstructed it every time, Chai Rong could only be far away in Lanzhou, and could not enter Bianliang City. Because Wang Jun is here, Chai Rong cannot have a meritorious performance. This almost brought Chai Rong and the Great Zhou Dynasty to death in the later Battle of Gaoping. At this time, Guo Wei may not have realized this crisis at all, and he always agreed to all of Wang Jun's requests. Until one day, Wang Jun's conversation finally had an unprecedented fresh idea: "Your Majesty, Wang Jun is also very annoying, remove him from the position of privy envoy" Guo Wei"? Ahh All right... Wait," Guo Wei suddenly came back to his senses, "What did you say?" You want to resign" Guo Wei, who was finally not excited, became extremely anxious and comforted Wang Jun in every way. But no matter how Guo Wei persuaded him, Wang Jun was uncompromising and directly gave himself a long vacation.

Guo Wei was lonely in the palace that day, but what happened next made him feel terrified. After the week, all the envoys from all over the country suddenly unanimously wrote to Wang Jun to stay in office. For a time, the momentum was surging, and the morale of the army was floating.

This incident forced Guo Wei to ask Wang Jun's personal friend Chen Guan to make a statement, saying that he would go out of the palace in person to pick up Wang Jun back to the Privy Council to do things, giving Wang Jun enough face. On August 5, Wang Juncai reluctantly returned to work again.

On December 4, when the Yellow River broke, Wang Jun went to the field to organize rescue and disaster relief. Taking this opportunity, on the 15th day of the first month of the leap month of the 3rd year of Guangshun (953), Chai Rong finally entered the court for the first time to see his father-in-law Guo Wei, and Wang Jun heard the news by the Yellow River, and was immediately jealous! On the 17th, he also returned to Bianliang City. Chai Rong was forced to go back to Lanzhou on February 3. Chai Rong's biggest gain this time was that under the auspices of Guo Wei, he married Fu Yanqing's eldest daughter, who was married to Li Chongxun, the son of Li Shouzhen. The prophecy given to Li Shouzhen by the Xiangshi "This woman should be the mother of the world", but with Wang Jun here, how long will the prophecy come true? At the same time, Wang Jun and Guo Wei started a new round of conversation.

"Your Majesty, in view of the fact that the prime minister's part-time privy envoy Wang Jun is doing a very good job, and he has more than enough strength to do so, is it better to give him a more "prestige"? Ahh All right. What more work do you have to do, "Jun" to get some benefits, Pinglu Festival Envoy "On the 21st day of the first month of the leap month, Wang Jun also led the Pinglu Festival Envoy.

Jun: "Your Majesty, Wang Jun works extremely well, and his family is too poor. Can you give him a salary increase? Ahh All right... How much "Jun" is added every month, and it is not easy to calculate piecemeal. So be it. Let's have 10,000 horses in the Zuozang Treasury in the future, so let's give Wang Jun an additional subsidy at one time."

In this way, Guo Wei was obedient to Wang Jun and never disobeyed. Until one day, Wang Jun invited Guo Wei to his office Privy Council as a guest. When Guo Wei arrived, it turned out that Wang Jun had built an 'extremely luxurious' new house and invited Guo Wei to drink. In the next day, Guo Wei was probably tempted by the new house and planned to build a small hall in his palace. But as soon as the construction began, Wang Jun came over, "Your Majesty, there are already a lot of palace houses, what are you going to do with this" Suddenly, Guo Wei's face turned red sharply, his chest suddenly bulged, as if he had been holding back his anger for a long time, he suddenly vented out, and said a more abnormal sentence "Brother Wang, there are a lot of houses in the Privy Council, how can you build them" Wang Jun was stunned for a moment, probably not prepared for such Guo Wei. He never thought that Guo Wei could speak to him like this. History says that 'it can't be right'.

On February 12, 953, Wang Jun and Guo Wei had the last conversation in his life. Li Gu and Fan Zhen are very annoying, and they must not reuse "Wei"..."Jun" I said that they must not be reused... That is, you can never reuse "Wei"..."Jun" Your Majesty! The reason why Guo Wei couldn't answer was very simple. Because Li Gu and Fan Zhen are at the same level as Wang Jun, they are both prime ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty! However, Guo Wei's silence meant weakness for Wang Jun. So he had to inch in, "Your Majesty, Yan Yin and Chen Guan don't let me hate it very much, let them replace Li Gu and Fan Zhen as prime ministers" Guo Wei finally felt that he couldn't be silent anymore. found a reason: "Brother Wang! Today is the official holiday of the Winter Food Festival! How about you let me finish this festival and do it tomorrow? In this way, Wang Junzhi left Guo Wei proudly that day, and left the palace of Hou Zhou forever......

On the 13th, Guo Wei got up early to work. The emperor cried in front of Feng Dao, "Wang Jun bullied me too much, and wanted to chase away the ministers and lose his wings." My only son is honored, and he is jealous, so that father and son cannot see each other. Now Jun is a cardinal, a reinstated prime minister, and a major leader. Looking at his interests, there is still not enough. If you don't have a king, who can do it? "Ordered Wang Jun to be imprisoned. On the 14th, Wang Jun was demoted to Shangzhou. Soon, Wang Jun died of abdominal disease. Thinking that Wang Jun, who was full of spirit, was suddenly driven to the place, he would definitely not be able to figure it out, and then he would not be able to eat. It's not surprising that you don't eat well, get a stomach problem and die.

On March 5, 953, Chai Rong, who was no longer restrained by Wang Jun, finally became the king of Kaifeng Yin and Jin (this official position would start the tradition of the crown prince of the Northern Song Dynasty in the future, and almost every crown prince sat on the throne from the back of Kaifeng Yin). At the end of 950, when Guo Wei raised the army to Qin Wang, Chai Rong has been staying in Yedu and Lanzhou, and after more than 2 years, the heirs of the Great Zhou finally entered Kaifeng City. And our protagonist Zhao Kuangyin, as Chai Rong's earliest team, also returned to Kaifeng with Chai Rong as the deputy commander of the Xingshun Army in Huazhou. A new page in Chinese history is about to begin......

In December of the 3rd year of Guangshun (953), Guo Wei fell ill. During his illness, He Fujin was the envoy of Chengde Jiedu to report to him all kinds of Wang Yin's tyranny.

That day was Wang Yin's first letter to Guo Weitong. Without him, maybe Guo Wei's head would have fallen off. Wang Yin's merits are huge, so when he divided the cake, he was assigned to the four titles of Yedu Stay-at-Large, Tianxiong Jiedu Envoy (that is, Wei Bo, the first feudal town of the Tang Dynasty), Commander of the Guards Ma Bujun (Boss), and Tongping Zhangshi, and lived a happy life in Yedu. But Wang Jun was demoted, and the information revealed by this incident was very bad. It will inevitably make Wang Yin think of Liu Bang killing Han Xinlai. And Guo Wei stayed in Yedu before he ascended the throne, and he knew that there was a lot of money in the official treasury of Yedu. But Wang Yin felt that it was not enough, and he was greedy for the officials and the people. This made Guo Wei a little unhappy, and he once wrote a letter to criticize Wang Yin. He was investigated and Wang Jun was demoted, and it was really not good for these two things to be put together, so Wang Yin decided to go to Bianliang City to test the emperor's tone. On the 19th, Wang Yin entered the court, and Guo Wei gave Wang Yin a new title: Commander-in-Chief of the Beijing Armed Police.

It's just that Wang Yin's entry into the court this time made a bit of a big move, and hundreds of his small soldiers hulala penetrated to the west of the city, and rushed to the east of the city. In fact, some of them may have followed two apples and a pear on the stall, and someone quietly touched the big girl's buttocks, and so on. But our Boss Guo has become angry and has lost his normal thinking and analysis ability. However, he also received reports every day that Commander Wang was jumping out of the capital, which made the good citizens of Bianliang City panic. So Guo Wei judged: Commander Wang may want to be the emperor. In order to live the Great Zhou Qianqiu, on December 26, Guo Wei, who was half dead, suddenly changed his personality, summoned Wang Yin into the palace, and immediately announced the crime: rebellion! At first, Guo Wei didn't want to kill people, so he was sentenced to Dengzhou. Later, it was estimated that Guo Wei's headache had another attack, so he had the intention of killing. Wang Yin was thus killed outside the gate of Bianliang City. Alas! Kill all the killings, then clean up the aftermath! But Zheng Renxue, who Guo Wei sent to wipe his buttocks, was indeed not a person, he actually took a fancy to Wang Yin's Wanguan family wealth and killed people......

However, now Guo Wei may not have the strength to punish Zheng Renxue. After disposing of the two high-powered kings, the person Guo Wei killed the most was called Zhao Feng. It was the general who shot Guo Wei's rebellious soldiers who entered the city and robbed with a bow and arrow. So now that Guo Wei killed Zhao Feng, is it the Autumn Queen's reckoning? There is a reason for killing, but the emperor wants to kill an old cadre, and it is too easy to find a reason. It is nothing more than making false accusations and snaring crimes. But the real purpose should always be buried in Guo Wei's heart.

But Guo Wei still said it, he only told one person. Guo Wei, who was lying on the hospital bed, said to Chai Rong, who was waiting for the sick, "I heard folk rumors that the surname Zhao will take us from the world." I think this Zhao Feng has an extraordinary bearing, and it may be fulfilled in him. So I killed him first. In order to protect my Great Zhou Dynasty for thousands of generations, longevity and eternal prosperity" This can be regarded as Guo Wei's last words. Of course, we all know in later generations that Chai Rong did not abide by this last word very well. At least one person surnamed Zhao was not killed by Chai Rong, but was reused. In fact, in order for Chai Rong to succeed smoothly, Guo Wei also did a lot of things......
