Chapter 358: Accountability and resignation
Zhao Shu looked at the more or less angry on everyone's faces, knowing that it was the person who came who was not good, although Fei Yi was asking, he must have known about last night's incident, so he didn't plan to hide it, and replied: "I am not strict in discipline, so that such a thing happened, I am afraid in my heart, I want to ask you to come to the house to discuss, and I hope that you can give more advice." He originally meant that he was not strict in disciplining Lu Rong, but Jiang Wan didn't know that it was Lu Rong who led the troops, and when he said this, the implication was that he wanted to put all the responsibility on Zhang Wei, so he said loudly: "The general said this, that is, Zhang Wei led the troops to kill the minister and forced the queen to kill herself, it was all his intention, and it had nothing to do with the general?" ”
When Zhao Shu heard this, he knew that Jiang Wan and the others probably didn't know about Lu Rong, so he felt a little relieved, and said with a wry smile: "At this moment, Shu Ruoyan really didn't know in advance, can you trust it?" Jiang Wan sneered a few times and said, "If this is the case, then Zhang Wei privately transferred troops into the city and did such a thing, it would be a capital crime." Please order the general to order it immediately, and correct it so that it can be punished properly. He heard that Zhao Shu put the responsibility on Zhang Wei, and knew that it was impossible to bring down Zhao Shu, but since he was willing to hand over Zhang Wei to take the blame, it was also better. One can damage Zhao Shu's confidant general, and the other can let future generations learn from it, and follow Zhao Shu's rebellion, that is, both sides are not pleased, so who will dare to work for Zhao Shu in the future.
Jiang Wan can think of these two points, how can Zhao Shu not think of them? It's just talking, and he won't throw Zhang Wei out, so he slowed down his breath and said tentatively: "Although General Zhang acted recklessly, it was Zhang Shao who plotted misdeeds first, although he was guilty, he also worked hard. Can it be disposed of leniently? Jiang Wan asked rhetorically: "The general only said that Zhang Shao was plotting against him, but is there any evidence?" "Everyone only knows that the imperial court issued a holy decree yesterday to let Zhang Shao's little sister marry Zhao Shu, but they don't know the reason. Zhao Shu had no choice but to tell Zhang Shao's serial plan, and then said: "General Zhang learned the news, but he was afraid that Shu would be harmed by traitors and shake the country, so he led his troops into the city before he could ask for an order. It can be regarded as a matter of urgency, and loyalty is commendable. ”
Wang Yun's serial plan has only been decades, Jiang Wan and others are familiar with the allusions, and after hearing it, they know in their hearts that Zhang Shao is indeed harmful to Zhao Shu's heart, so they caused this disaster. Jiang Wan sneered: "Murdering a general is not necessarily a rebellion, and rescuing a general is not necessarily loyal." Zhao Shu wanted to discuss with everyone and smooth out the matter as much as possible, but he didn't want Jiang Wan to say this sneeringly, the implication was that he should be killed, and he didn't feel a little annoyed, and sneered: "Then according to Lord Jiang's wishes, I should wash my neck and wait for Zhang Shao to cut it?" ”
Jiang Wan was not afraid, and was about to speak out, but was grabbed by Fei Yi, and preemptively said to Zhao Shu: "Why did the general say this? The important ministers of the military state can't talk about life and death lightly, but Zhang Shao is guilty and needs to be dealt with. Zhang Wei did not follow His Majesty's will, so he entered the city and killed the minister in vain, which is also a crime, and then he will think about the safety of the general, or he can be exempted. It's just that Zhang Shao died, and Zhang Wei raised troops to force the palace, forcing the queen to kill herself. The murder of the mother of the nation, such a great crime, is the general also ready to pardon him? ”
Zhao Shu also knew that Zhang Shao deserved to die, but he should not be killed like this, and Empress Zhang should not have died, let alone be forced to death by Lu Rong and others. At this moment, Fei Yi opened his mouth to ask, and Zhao Shu couldn't help but be speechless, hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "General Zhang led his troops to the palace, and the original intention was to protect His Majesty's safety. Zhang Shao did this, the queen may not know, and Zhang Shao is subdued, how can the queen live in the middle palace again? General Zhang had the heart to implore His Majesty to depose the empress, and he had no intention of harming him. It was only His Majesty's misunderstanding of General Zhang's meaning that made the queen kill herself. ”
Zhao Shu himself can't be convinced when these excuses are said, let alone Jiang Wan and others? Jiang Wan sneered again, and said, "The general is clean, so Zhang Wei is not guilty in the slightest?" However, we have received the great favor of the country and eaten the court, but last night we just sat in the mansion, not thinking about being loyal to the monarch and serving the country, and fulfilling our duties, but should be held accountable. Fei Yi only mocked Zhao Shu when he heard his words, and he couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for him.
Zhao Shu knew that in the eyes of these people, he was now no different from Wang Mang, Dong Zhuo and others, no matter what he said, it was in vain, but he couldn't do it if he wanted to take Zhang Wei's guilt, so he couldn't help but think of Guo Huai's method just now. Fei Yi peeked at Zhao Shu and was not annoyed and ashamed, his heart was a little relieved, and he gently pulled Jiang Wan's sleeve, walked in front of Zhao Shu himself, and bowed: "The lower official is old and faint, and he doesn't know that General Zhang Wei is guilty of merit and innocence, and he eats the court in vain." If not, please ask the general to play His Majesty, and allow the official to return to his hometown and retire for the rest of his life. ”
Zhao Shu was still thinking about Guo Huai's strategy, and he didn't know that Fei Yi would be like this, his face was stunned, and he immediately heard several other people bow down one after another, and said: "Please pass on Your Majesty, and let the official tell the old man to resign." Only Jiang Wan was still standing, looking at the kneeling crowd, and scolded: "Coward, coward, why are you afraid of him?" ”
Although the number of resignations is not large, they are all the pillars who preside over the government affairs of Shu Han. Zhao Shu really never thought that although Fei Yi did not have such fierce words as Jiang Wan, he had such a shady trick. Rengui is self-aware, and the reason why Zhao Shu wants to speak well to Jiang and Fei is that he knows that he is far inferior to the two of them in terms of internal affairs, and he has the heart to rely on the two of them to govern Shu Han. Now one is sneering at himself, the other is going to return to his hometown, a huge court, who will Zhao Shu rely on to help? In the past few years, Zhao Shu has not paid attention to collecting talents, but Shuhan is located in a remote area, and there are not many so-called talents. And Zhao Shu is bent on cultivating Zhang Shao, Li Feng and others, so they naturally can't look forward to it at the moment, so they have to rely on Jiang Wan and Fei Yi.
Zhao Shu hurriedly reached out to help Fei Yi, and couldn't stop saying, "How are you talking, adult?" The country is in an eventful season, and the lord is a pillar of the court, how can he easily resign? However, Fei Yi made up his mind, refused to get up again and again, and must resign. made Zhao Shu cry and laugh, and he couldn't help but think of the student strikes and workers' strikes in later generations, and now it is Fei Yi who is dismissed. Zhao Shu knew what was going on today, and he had to give an explanation to the two, otherwise it really wouldn't end, so he made up his mind to return Liu Chan to government according to Guo Huai's idea. Thinking of making such a concession, Jiang and Fei should be satisfied.
