"Li Xianggong, please."

Everyone stretched out their hands one after another, and Li Gang went first and entered the room.

The difference between the indoor and the outside is quite spacious, although more than 20 people came in and a few small officials put on chairs, but they were not very crowded.

Li Gang didn't respect tea either, only stroked his beard and groaned, and said to everyone: "You have worked hard, for Your Majesty to hunt in the north, you have been exiled from the north for many years, and you can return today, and I am very happy in my heart." ”

When Ding Bo was in charge of the Ministry of War, although Li Gang was also a minister, he was only a squire of the Ministry of War, and he was still his subordinate. Later, he was the right man of Shangshu, the four walls of Tokyo guarded the imperial history, the prime minister, and was on the top of the clouds.

At that time, when he was in Jingkang, he had neither the organic change nor the determination to resist the war, but at this moment, he only felt that Li Gang only knew how to speak loudly, coerced the people to bully the lord, and now his prestige has risen greatly, and he has even achieved the Pingzhang military and state affairs that the courtiers cannot occupy the position, which makes him really jealous.

Li Gang did not return the courtesy, obviously because of this new official position, thinking of this, he felt even more uncomfortable.

Patiently, waiting for others to have a perfunctory greeting with Li Gang, he put on a gloomy face, and added fuel to the matter of the general, and explained it.

After finishing speaking, everyone looked at Li Gang and waited for him to speak.

But Li Gang shook his head and said: "Although the pedestrian division is under the command of military generals, it is actually not an army. ”

Seeing that everyone was surprised, he said again: "Its implementation of the duties of the Human Division, which is equivalent to the original Imperial City Division, is a reconnaissance and spy, and also has the position of an official. It's their business, and I don't care too much. ”

Ding Bo said angrily: "What kind of system is this? This dynasty has always been politically clear, how can there ever be such a spy yamen! ”

Li Gang knew that this person was an old man, so he looked down on him, so he was naturally angry at this time. It's just that he is a deep person, and he is a newly promoted Pingzhang military and state affairs, so he doesn't want to be criticized for such a trivial matter.

Because he was not angry at all, he smiled at Ding Bo and said: "Although this dynasty is politically clear, it can't be said that the monarch can't check his subordinates, and why is the establishment of the Imperial City Division?" When His Majesty set up the Pedestrian Division, he had already made it clear that this division was mainly for reconnaissance of the enemy country, not for officials, and this time he sent them to pick you up, also to see if you were mixed into the Jin Country from among the people, so why should Lord Ding be angry. ”

Seeing that Ding Bo was speechless, Li Gang said again: "In fact, some people persuaded Your Majesty to re-establish the Imperial City Department and use eunuchs in charge. Your Majesty said that a big mistake in this dynasty is to let this generation be an official, or even a general in the army. Although His Majesty took in some eunuchs and palace maids who escaped from Tokyo that day, he only let this generation sweep the courtyard and did not let them study and do things, which will always be an example. ”

The control and vigilance of eunuchs, the Song Dynasty began to do well. Later, the eunuchs commanded the army to fight, and even became the commander of the road, and some generations of the Son of Heaven pacified the roads, disturbed the place, and became a major disaster.

Fortunately, the Song Dynasty scholars and doctors were extremely powerful, the prime minister claimed to be in charge of both internal and external, and the eunuchs were also under the supervision of the system.

Zhao Huan's decision, no matter whether it was the main battle or the main peace, no matter how serious the political differences were, the attitude towards the eunuch group was generally the same.

After listening to Li Gang, everyone showed a look of approval on their faces, and said together: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. ”

This matter was gently revealed by him, and although Ding Bo was not convinced, he had no choice but to give up.

But I heard someone ask again: "Since Li Xianggong has seen us, I don't know when His Majesty will meet us, since the dust, Xia Guan has been detained in Shangjing, and he has not seen the sky for a long time, can you ask Li Xianggong to show his feelings and listen to the heavens, so that we can see us immediately?" ”

He looked forward to Ai Ai, and although the words below were not spoken, everyone in the hall was also clear in their hearts and clearly understood.

Of these people, the highest has been a chief executive, and the lowest is also the deputy envoy of the three divisions, the middle of the imperial history. Being captured that day cannot be regarded as their fault, and now that they have returned, how to settle down has become the most important and important thing in everyone's heart.

By the time they were on the way, they had already learned the whereabouts of their families and were not worried. In the Song Dynasty, as an official, Tian Fu did not pay, he was generous, and his status was lofty, all of them were hard work, and he was promoted to the rank of Jinshi, and he was promoted to work with qualifications.

Li Gang's heart was also bright, and when he got the news of the release of the captured officials, he began to have a headache.

His mind is very different from Zhao Huan, the problem of redundant officials has plagued the Song Dynasty for a hundred years, and the pain is that the emperor and the people, the officials have the same interests, and they don't have much feeling about this.

No matter how many officials come back, it is not difficult to install them according to the old system.

What troubles him is that he has different political views. Don't look at this group of people who are languishing and listless now, in fact, they all have a large number of old friends, intertwined, in the court, in the army and in the countryside, there are corresponding forces.

If an old man is installed as an official in the central government, this group of spineless and responsible people who are clearly displayed will make noise and control the situation, which will really make him uncomfortable.

Since the Song Dynasty, no matter how much power you have, unless you are like Cai Jing, you can get power and bully and suppress it, otherwise, don't think about the smooth government decree and have no elbows.

He pondered for a moment, knowing that he couldn't prevaricate this matter, so he had to reply: "Your Majesty has a word first, and after you have met all the rulers here, you can enter the palace to see you." ”

"Oh?"

From Ding Bo down, everyone is happy.

But listening to Li Gang, he said with a blank face: "The arrangement of your lords, the political affairs hall has already been calculated. ”

"I don't know how you arrange it?"

This time, not only Ding Bo, but also Qin Hui, who had hidden worries in his heart, couldn't help but look at Li Gang, waiting for him to say the following.

Li Gang only felt embarrassed, and first turned his head to look at Zhu Shengfei and Xie Liang, but the two turned their heads with a smile and refused to speak.

He secretly complained to himself, and said in his heart: "This Pingzhang military and state affairs are really not a good reason. ”

At that moment, I had to fight my spirit, squeeze out a smile, and said: "You have been in the dust with the second emperor for a long time, and the political affairs are sparse, and the current situation is not very clear. In my opinion, for the time being, it is better to be an official, and it is good to do practical things. ”

Ding Bo was furious, couldn't help but get up, and shouted: "Li Xianggong, when I was a soldier, Your Excellency was just a squire, and now I am proud in front of Your Majesty, so you say that I am neglecting political affairs?" ”

He Su also said: "What is this to say, I have been an official for decades, and I have served four Majesies, and I have never had such a test!" ”

The rest of the people were also furious, and they stood up one by one, and made a mess of noise.

Although Qin Hui didn't speak, he was also very angry in his heart. He was proud of his youth, he became a jinshi at a young age, and he rose all the way, and he has always only been praised, and no one dares to criticize him like this.

Li Gang had a big head for a while, but it was inconvenient to quarrel with everyone at this time. However, a few small officials in the hall persuaded one after another: "Ladies and gentlemen, how can there be such a noisy person in the capital hall, what kind of system is this." ”

After everyone was a little quieter, Li Gang hurriedly said: "You don't have to worry, this is also our kindness." For example, His Majesty intends to reform the official system, and has convened several meetings of ministers, the details of which you naturally do not know. In addition, the financial endowment and military system all need to be changed. I am waiting for Your Majesty every day, and there are many details that are not clear, so how can you be clear about you just returning to the south. ”

These few sentences are also true, and everyone who said them was silent.

But I heard him say again: "Not only you, but also those who are not familiar with political affairs in the local area, or who are not aware of the current overall situation, are also arranged in this way. ”

He Su sneered: "When I was in the Five Kingdoms City, I was often around His Majesty, and I never heard him talk about this. His Majesty has been returning south for such a long time, presumably surrounded by traitorous ministers around him, so that this is the case. ”

These words were extremely serious, Li Gang's face suddenly changed color, and he said sharply: "Lord He, if there is evidence, you can be impeached, and if we are suspected, we will naturally ask for resignation." If you humiliate Li so much in such a place, you can't. ”

He has always been kind and pleasant, and even when he was accused by Ding Bo, he was not angry. At this time, for a while, everyone was shocked and speechless.

Zhu Shengfei and the others said: "Lord He is too reckless, and Li Xianggong is acting as a person, how can he be blamed." ”

He Su also knew that he had spoken too much, thinking that this person in front of him was already a military and state affair in Pingzhang, but he had to press down with a vicious anger in his chest, and arched his hand: "He Mou lost his words." ”

Ding Bo knew that he was embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I don't know if we don't serve as an official first, but what are we doing?" ”

Li Gang's expression turned around, first bowed to He Su, and then said: "I'll wait for discussion, and I'll ask the hall to study." ”
