Chapter 108: Framing Each Other! Officialdom is deceitful
In the main hall of Weiyang Palace, the hundred officials were shocked.
Shi Ni Kuan has something to impeach?
He is a good old man, a rare conscientious official in the Imperial History Mansion and the Imperial Governor's Mansion. It is easy to describe it with a line from a certain movie, this is the conscience of the capital industry!
The officials of the Imperial History Mansion, which one does not like to impeach the ministers of the court?
Which lieutenant doesn't like to grab the pigtails that are against him?
Only Ni Kuan doesn't do business!
At most, he can write a piece of music for someone, after all, he can write a good article, and even His Majesty praised the good writing after reading it.
Right now!
Ni Kuan, a good old man, actually has something to impeach?
This time.
Even Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, who was sitting in a high position, was a little interested and asked, "Oh? I heard that Ni Shi Yushi has never liked to play impeachment, but today it is rare. Tell me, what is there to impeach?"
Ni Kuan immediately held the wat board with both hands and said, "Back to Your Majesty."
"The minister wants to impeach him, Prime Minister Li Cai!"
"He used the power of the prime minister to privately encircle and encroach on dozens of acres of land on the edge of the first emperor's Yangling, disturbed the first emperor's sleep, and trapped His Majesty in the name of unfilial piety, which is a great disrespect."
As soon as the words came out.
The court instantly exploded.
Using the power of the prime minister to encroach on the land of the first emperor's Yangling is not a trivial matter!
Even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, frowned tightly after hearing this.
And Li Cai, the prime minister of the party, was even more trembling after hearing this.
Present!
Li Cai immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged. Ni Kuan's imperial history has no evidence, and he is going to trap the old minister in injustice just by relying on his red mouth and white teeth, which is a proper frame!"
However.
Ni Kuan's eyes were firm at this moment and said, "Framed? Hmph, Prime Minister Li, I, Ni Kuan, have never liked the impeachment of the court."
"Today."
"You've just gone too far."
"If I am framed, then may I ask Prime Minister Li Cheng, what was the reason for the quarrel that happened in the General's Mansion that day?"
Prime Minister Li Cai didn't think about it, and immediately shouted: "Nonsense, how can those long-tongued rumors in Chang'an City be taken seriously? I have a close relationship with General Wei Qing, and when I talked about the quarrel that day, it was just a louder conversation when we were chatting."
Now.
The prime minister didn't want to bring up the matter of Yangling again.
After all, if it is really investigated.
His Chinese chapter can have a great background, although he is said to be a high and powerful prime minister, he is the head of a hundred officials, but there are still political enemies in the court.
Far from it.
Speaking of the nearest one, Zhang Tang, one of the three princes, is his rival Li Cai.
It's not.
Zhang Tang saw that Prime Minister Li Cai wanted to avoid the important and lightly pull away from the topic, so he stood up, took the wat board and said to Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, "Your Majesty, the ministers have also heard about this matter. Moreover, it has something to do with His Majesty!"
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, stared at Zhang Tang with a torch in his eyes, a little puzzled.
Shi Nikuan, who has never seen the impeachment, actually impeached his fellow officials in the court today? Even the one he impeached was Li Cai, the prime minister at the head of the hundred officials!
Even more outrageous!
Imperial Doctor Zhang Tang said that he also had something to do with him Liu Che?
For a while, Liu Che, the extremely smart Emperor of the Han Dynasty, was also a little confused at the moment, and asked, "Nonsense, what does this have to do with me?"
The words fell.
Imperial Doctor Zhang Tang hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that you promised Huo Yilang that if he can complete the matter of raising funds for disaster relief in the northwest, he will be allowed to enclose land around Chang'an City!"
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, thought for a while before he spoke, "There is such a thing, but I remember that what was promised to Huo Yilang was to use it, and it was not said that it was for him to possess!"
"What's more."
"What does Ni Kuan's impeachment have to do with Huo Guang? Could it be that this kid invaded Yangling
Land?"
Doctor Yu Shi hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not that Huo Yilang encroached on it, but when Huo Yilang enclosed the land in the north outside Chang'an City, the land that was about to be enclosed had a handover with the prime minister's encroachment on Yangling, and the two had a quarrel."
"So."
"Prime Minister Li Cheng took people to the General's Mansion to hold them accountable."
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che heard it.
There was a cold chill in his eyes, and he glanced at Prime Minister Li Cai and asked, "Prime Minister Li, is there such a thing?"
However, Prime Minister Li Cai bit the bullet at this time and said, "What Zhang Tang said is not true, that land is not in Yangling, and it is not my Li Cai's land."
"Just that day."
"The old minister happened to be a guest at the General's Mansion, and there is no such thing as a conflict."
"If there is a conflict."
"The old minister is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, Huo Yilang refuted me, isn't it the following offense and messing up the etiquette!"
"Huo Yilang is a person who understands etiquette, I think Your Majesty should understand that he will never conflict with the old minister, so there is no quarrel as Zhang Tang said."
Prime Minister Li Cai knew that if he admitted that he had encroached on the land of the first emperor Yangling at this time.
Then he, the prime minister, is estimated to have made it home!
But he just bit it to death and said no, but there was still a glimmer of anger.
Let alone.
The land in Yangling is already strange. Whether it's his or not, not necessarily.
Li Cai is also an old fox.
His last sentence was not to praise Huo Guang, but to tie Huo Guang to a piece of hemp rope.
If it is confirmed that Huo Guang quarreled with him, the prime minister of the dynasty, then he would be guilty of the following crimes!
This was also a great sin in the Han Dynasty.
After all, the ancients still attached great importance to etiquette.
Just sometimes, right?
The more Li Cai said this, the more Emperor Wu of Han could feel that there was a problem.
Others don't know.
Huo Guang, this little guy, isn't he Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still clear?
Understand the number of etiquette...
Hehe!
Thinking of this, Emperor Wu of Han immediately spoke: "Since it is said that it is related to Huo Yilang, then announce that Huo Yilang will enter the palace to discuss!"
"No."
When the eunuch heard the words of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he hurriedly went to find Huo Guang.
By the time Huo Guang came, a long time had passed.
Fortunately, Chang'an City is not big.
came and went, and it didn't take much time.
Although Huo Guang didn't know what happened to make him be edicted into the palace, after coming in, he still honestly gave Emperor Wu of Han his luggage and said, "Minister Huo Guang, please see Your Majesty."
Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, had a dark face at this time, and asked Huo Guang, "Huo Yilang, Zhang Yushi and Ni Kuan's Imperial History said that you had a quarrel with the prime minister a few days ago, yes or no?"
Ooh?
Was he impeached by Zhang Gong for this matter?
That's not right!
Isn't Zhang Tang and Prime Minister Li Cai political enemies? Why impeach yourself!
Moment.
Huo Guang had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and he felt that the meaning of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was that the imperial historian Zhang Tang had impeached him.
But after thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong!
Huo Guang asked tentatively, "Back to Your Majesty, that Richen did not quarrel with Li Xiang, but just calmly recounted the facts."
No matter how stupid a person is, he doesn't dare to blatantly say that he has killed the prime minister!
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, heard Huo Guang say this.
I already have the answer in my mind.
But Liu Che's face not only did not show any expression, but his brows frowned even more, and he continued to ask, "Huo Guang, I don't have time to go around in circles with you now. You directly said that you quarreled with Prime Minister Li Caiquan, is it because Prime Minister Li Caiquan's land occupies Yangling, and you happen to be in the circle of that land?"
It turned out that His Majesty wanted to ask the Prime Minister
What about the land encroachment on Yangling?
Huh?
Why did things move so fast?
Huo Guang was shocked in his heart, according to his estimates, it would take at least a year and a half for this matter to break out.
Of course.
If it were said from his mouth, it would have speeded up the process.
Ineffable.
can also kick Li Cai from the position of prime minister in one fell swoop.
But the problem is, he can't do that.
If he kicked Li Cai down, wouldn't it be equivalent to standing directly on the cusp?
When the time comes.
He has an extra label of Zhang Tangpeng, which is extremely bad for his career development in the future.
With this in mind.
Huo Guang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the matter that Richen and Li Xiang were arguing about was indeed related to land. But strange things happened, and that land seems..."
The words are not finished.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, directly interrupted: "I don't need to say if there is anything strange, I will send someone to investigate."
"No."
When Huo Guang heard this, he had no choice but to shut his mouth stupidly.
Time.
The main hall of Weiyang Palace, which was still a little noisy, was quiet.
After pondering for a moment, Emperor Wu of Han broke the dullness again and said, "Li Xiang's invasion and occupation of Yangling will be handed over to the Imperial Governor's Mansion for supervision. During this period, no official in the palace of the court shall detain or detain the prime minister without permission."
After all that's said.
Emperor Wu of Han's eyes examined Zhang Tang and Ni Kuan back and forth again.
seems to be thinking, how did this Zhang Tang pull the good old man Shi Nikuan into the water?
Thinking of this, Emperor Wu of Han shook his head and asked, "Do you still have something to impeach?"
However, the ministers looked at each other, shook their heads together, and said, "I'll talk about it when I have nothing to do."
Looked at.
Emperor Wu of Han waved his hand and said, "Then let's disperse!"
"No."
So the court meeting ended, and the officials withdrew from the palace one after another.
And Prime Minister Li Cai, who didn't want to frame each other with the imperial historian Zhang Tang, returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion with a little more anger in his eyes.
He's the prime minister!
He is the head of a hundred officials, and his status and honor have reached the peak.
Because of the beating of the emperor last time, he can usually tolerate Zhang Tang's small actions.
But now he can't take it anymore!
There is no other reason, it is all what happened at today's court meeting, and I almost fell into a place of no return.
Immediately!
Li Cai asked people to call his pawns.
That is, the three long histories of Zhu Maichen, Bian Tong, and the Dynasty of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
I saw Li Cai say, "What happened at the court meeting today, you also saw it with your own eyes, that minister Zhang Tang wants to trap me in an unrighteous place."
"If Benxiang doesn't fight back, he seems to be afraid of him."
"Three colleagues."
"You are the long history of my prime minister's mansion, and you should be both glorious and honorable. So, please use your brains more and think about how to deal with this servant?"
When the three elders heard this, they glanced at each other, and they all saw joy in each other's eyes.
The prime minister finally made up his mind to deal with this Zhang Tang again.
Isn't that what the three of them want?
Thereupon.
The eldest prime minister, Shi Zhu Maichen, opened his mouth and said, "Prime Minister Li doesn't have to worry, I have a plan, I can punish Zhang Tang!"
Prime Minister Li Cai heard this.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Buyer, hurry up and tell me about it!"
Zhu Maichen immediately bowed his hand and said, "Can the prime minister know that the Imperial Governor's Mansion has reduced the Xuan?"
"Publicity?" Prime Minister Li Cai nodded, and said lightly: "I've heard of him, but the Tingwei Mansion is closer to the Imperial History Mansion, how can he help the prime minister!"
When Zhu Maichen heard this, he immediately burst out laughing.
Seeing him smile happily.
Prime Minister Li Cai's eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and he asked, "Zhu Maichen, what's so funny about you?" Is it wrong to say something in the true sense?"
Only then did Zhu Maichen stretch out his hand and waved, explaining, "The prime minister misunderstood, although this Zhang Tang also served in the Tingwei Mansion before, he had a good relationship with the Tingwei Mansion. However, there will always be some bad relationships between people."
"This minus is the one who has a bad relationship!"
"They're against each other."
"I heard that His Majesty's previous investigation of Zhang Tang was also handed over to Xuan Xuan."
"It's a pity."
"It's just this person who can't fight Zhang Tang."
Hearing Changshi Zhu Maichen's words, Li Cai nodded thoughtfully and said, "What do you mean, let Jian Xuan deal with Zhang Tang?" But I'm not familiar with Xuanxuan, how should I arrange it?"
In fact.
At this time, Li Cai was still a little confused.
It is said that Xuan's talent is not good, why do you want him to deal with Zhang Tang?
Doubts are doubts.
Prime Minister Li Cai still couldn't help but ask this.
When Changshi Zhu Maichen heard the Prime Minister's question, he immediately replied with a smile: "Why worry about the Prime Minister, although you are not familiar with it, there are people who are familiar with Jian Xuan. Otherwise, what are we going to do with those doormen?"
"Oh? Do you know anyone who has reduced the preaching?" Li Cai glanced at Zhu Maichen curiously.
Zhu Maichen immediately nodded and said, "I have it."
Hear the words.
Prime Minister Li Cai was in a much better mood, and even the old face that was originally black showed a hint of a smile.
"Hahaha, that's very good." Prime Minister Li Cailian laughed a few times and said, "Three colleagues, stay tonight, the prime minister wants to invite you to stay in Chang'an and not get drunk or not, just to discuss this matter."
"Good!"
The three of them replied in unison.
The court meeting of the Han Dynasty was not held every day, but only in a specific period, or if there was any major event, His Majesty would take the initiative to order the ministers to admonish him.
So.
The prime minister invited the three of them to a banquet, and he didn't need to worry about anything that he wouldn't be able to catch up with tomorrow.
At night, Chang'anle's life is not happy.
Zhu Maichen and the other three prime ministers had a long history, and after drinking a few glasses with Prime Minister Li Cai, they couldn't bear it and came out to relieve themselves.
After all, it's not like Prime Minister Li Cai, who was born as a military general.
In terms of drinking, the three of them together can't compare to one Li Cai.
Then.
The three of them put the water, and one of them, Changshi Biantong, said with some fear: "Zhu Changshi, the prime minister won't find out that we hurt him in that matter, right?"
"Shut up!" Zhu Maichen immediately scolded and said, "Don't mention this matter again, as long as you keep your mouth shut, nothing will happen."
"Oh, I know."
「......」
......
......
Two days later, Huo Guang stretched his waist and walked out of his restaurant.
Since the last time because of Prime Minister Li Cai's matter, Huo Guang was reprimanded by his uncle Wei Qing, and he has never returned to the General's Mansion.
After all, he is not Wei Yan, so he is not angry.
Then.
Huo Guang yawned and asked, "Have you prepared the new carriage for you?"
Because I don't live in the General's Mansion anymore.
The carriage that I usually ride is naturally useless, so I can only spend my own money to build a new carriage. The carriage is easy to manage, but the horse is not easy to handle, and it takes a little effort to get it.
But these can't help Huo Guang.
Who made him the champion brother!
Hearing Huo Guang's question, Busan hurriedly replied, "Childe, the carriage is ready. But because it's a new carriage, I haven't sat in it yet, so I don't know if it's comfortable inside."
Huo Guang waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, just be a means of transportation."
"Alright, hurry up and bring the carriage."
"I'm going to Da Nong Ling to do some business, and I need to use a new carriage."
After hearing this, he immediately went to lead the carriage.
Huo Guang wanted to turn around and go back to the restaurant to rest and wait, but as soon as he walked back, someone patted him on the back behind him.
Look back.
found that the person who patted him on the shoulder was a young man who was as gentle as jade.
"Eh, you're not..."
