Father Li's fainting can only be regarded as a small episode, and everyone can understand it.

After all, whoever is involved in this kind of thing will inevitably be nervous.

It's just that many people think that he let his daughter show his face and take refuge in Cao Bin for his future official position.

Hence the contempt in my heart.

After Father Li woke up, he was embarrassed by the strange eyes of everyone, but he didn't take leave by fainting, he was really not at ease.

If Li Qingzhao does not perform well in the court, it may affect his family.

At this moment, a eunuch entered the palace and said:

"Queen Mother, the female official of the Li family has been brought."

Empress Dowager Pan nodded and said:

"Announce it."

When everyone saw Li Qingzhao's figure like a willow, and his face was like a hibiscus out of the water, they suddenly felt a sense of relief.

This woman can make Cao Bin recruit as an official regardless of her face, and she is really a rare beauty.

Seeing this, the officials were even more angry in their hearts.

Cao Bin is using the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty as a place to mess with the relationship between men and women, what a bastard!

However, Empress Dowager Pan didn't think about it so much, and when she saw that she finished the court, she couldn't wait to ask:

"Li Girl, Zhongjing Hou let you be in charge of the seal, it can be seen that you are very trusted."

"You come from the truth, Jianghuai Salt case, does he already have a solution to it?"

Li Qingzhao was inevitably a little nervous when he went to court for the first time, but he could still suppress his mood fluctuations and responded calmly:

"Returning to the Empress Dowager, Zhongjinghou's plan is to buy salt from Western Xia at a low price, so that the people in the southeast can temporarily survive the crisis."

As she spoke, she took out a book of musicals, held it above her head and said:

"This is the recital that Zhongjing Hou handed over to Weichen, and it is about to be put on the table."

When Empress Dowager Pan heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly asked the eunuch to take the chapter, read it again, and asked the ministers:

"What do you think, is this plan feasible?"

Pan Renmei showed joy and said:

"Back to the Queen Mother, Xixia is bitter and poor, and if you want to sell green salt for a long time, this plan is completely feasible."

"We can even use this strategy as a compromise to make him compromise on Zhao Ji's matter."

“...... But don't let the Western Xia probe into our plan, lest they have different intentions. ”

Hearing this, Li Qingzhao couldn't help but glance at Pan Renmei.

His idea coincided with part of Cao Bin's plan, but his idea was too late, and this mark had already been implemented.

When Empress Dowager Pan heard this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with relief:

"Zhongjing Houguo has great talents, and the mourning family has long known that he is not a person who slacks off on state affairs and only cares about his voice."

When Li Qingzhao heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly.

Just when she thought that the trouble was over, Sima Guang suddenly retorted:

"Queen Mother, although Xixia Qingyan can save the emergency, this is not a reason for Zhongjing to pretend to be sick,"

"Xixia is far away from the southeast roads, and the road is far away, how to transport it? At that time, the price of salt will inevitably rise sharply, how will the people buy it? ”

"Besides, this is not a long-term solution, the Jianghuai salt works need to be rebuilt, and the salt affairs need to be rectified, isn't this the duty of Zhongjinghou?"

"As an important minister of the imperial court, how can he take on a big responsibility if he is so lazy and lazy?"

Although Li Qingzhao felt that his words were a little reasonable, as a person from Cao Bin's side, she still scolded back in a weird way:

"Hou Ye Cao is always in charge of the three divisions, and there is a problem with Yandao, he pointed out the direction and solved the problem."

"Do you want him to arrange these details himself? If so, what is the use of salt and iron? ”

"Lord Han Jiang Han is also a Jinshi, an important minister of the imperial court, right? Why don't you ask Hou Ye Cao how to do the scientific research? ”

Han Jiang was so frightened by her that her face was red, and she was embarrassed to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so she could only say:

"These things are Han's responsibility, I don't dare to shirk it, and please rest assured."

When Li Qingzhao heard this, he couldn't help but feel pity, in Cao Bin's heart, it was impossible for Han Jiang to solve these details.

Father Li was stunned by Li Qingzhao at this time, he didn't expect his daughter to be so bold, just to scare people at home, and dare to be yin and yang in front of so many court bosses.

This made him break out in a cold sweat and feel ashamed......

Wang Yanling glanced at Sima Guang with disgust, and nodded in agreement:

"Indeed, there is no need to bother with these things."

Now that the most difficult problems have been resolved, what is there to argue?

This is obviously giving credit to Han Jiang, why bother to hold on to Cao Bin's pretending to be sick?

Sima Guang was also stunned, but he couldn't care about Wang Yanling anymore, and he found that the current situation was very bad for him, especially Pan Renmei's idea of blackmailing Xixia.

You know, you've made a bet.

If you lose the bet, you will have to decide yourself in front of Kong Sheng, this is not a simple matter of death, but whether it will become a laughing stock for the ages.

He didn't look at Li Qingzhao, and said to Empress Dowager Pan:

"Queen Mother, there has never been a precedent for an unmarried woman to be an official alone."

"This woman is neither the wife of the Marquis of Zhongjing, nor is she related to the Marquis of Zhongjing."

"Now it is a shameless act to fight in the three divisions, which is really a morally corrupt act."

"If everyone is like this, won't my Great Song Dynasty court become a filthy place for unscrupulous men and women."

"The Empress Dowager Wanwang will be severely punished, take it as a warning."

This guy knows how to debate, and if he can't talk about the facts, he will attack your character and personal morality.

Although he didn't say it directly, it was obvious that Li Qingzhao and Cao Bin were messing with the relationship between men and women in officialdom.

And what he said is not without reason.

Even in later generations, it is very easy for women to be criticized for mixing officialdom, not to mention the Great Song Dynasty, which attaches importance to etiquette.

No one cares how you take a concubine at home, but it's unacceptable to get this kind of thing to officialdom.

Li Qingzhao didn't expect him to be so insidious, he actually made a fuss about the relationship between men and women, and as long as his reasons were recognized, no matter how difficult it was for a woman to become an official, she could only return to the boudoir.

Therefore she was extremely angry:

"This lord, the pure one is self-purifying, what evidence do you have that I misbehaved?"

Sima Guangli ignored him, looked up at the sky and said disdainfully:

"The official does not argue with the woman in the boudoir."

This unruly appearance almost made Li Qingzhao angry to death.

Even the Empress Dowager Pan frowned a little, she got the way to resolve the salt case, she was also much more relaxed, and saw Li Qingzhao wearing a men's official uniform, acting chicly, and her spirit was flying, and she appreciated it very much.

I didn't expect Sima Guang to make a fuss about men and women, but what he said was not unreasonable.

If a precedent is set, some women are likely to use beauty to confuse the court, and she is still very taboo about these.

I don't want to cause the court to collapse because of one of my decisions.

But Li Qingzhao is Cao Bin's person, and if she wants to agree with Sima Guang, she must be dismissed, which makes her hesitate for a while.

At this time, many ministers also argued, most of them supported Sima Guang, and some supported Cao Bin, but that was because they were in the same party as Cao Bin.

It doesn't mean that they don't agree with Sima Guang's statement.

At this time, Li Qingzhao faced many criticisms, even if she was eloquent, it was difficult to refute, and she only felt that there was malice everywhere.

Just when Empress Dowager Pan was in distress, the guards outside the door suddenly reported:

"Queen Mother, Zhongjing is waiting to see you when you are sick."
