Chapter 320: Hard to swallow
As soon as the new right minister came to power, he confronted the emperor and made the emperor unhappy, which naturally caused an uproar in the government and the opposition.
Although in the end, His Majesty still gave the prime minister enough face, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the emperor was still angry in his heart, so there was a scene where Fang Cai brushed his sleeves and announced his retirement from the dynasty.
It looks like Zu Ting's holy family is still there?
But who is Your Majesty? Your Majesty is a notoriously powerful son of heaven, whose martial arts surpass the previous generations of kings since the founding of the country, such an emperor, can he tolerate a mere courtier to challenge his authority?
The dispute between the two monarchs and ministers set off huge waves in the blink of an eye, and the camps on both sides immediately showed clear outlines!
As soon as the emperor left the court, many courtiers stood up and scolded him, accusing this one-eyed old thief of being disloyal and unjust.
"Your Majesty is such a holy king, you old thief, first said that Your Majesty's words and deeds are inconsistent, and then said that I should stop the war and even dare to compare Your Majesty to a sinister man? Do you have the court in your heart, but you can have Your Majesty?! ”
"This person is disloyal and unjust, wolf-hearted, and is being thrown into Dali Temple to cut a thousand knives! Why should I argue with him more, go directly to Your Majesty, and abolish his position as right minister! ”
Gao Xuan: "......"
Gao Xuan's Dali Temple is a place that is even more unpopular than the prison of Jinyi's secret spies, ten people go in, there must be nine people who lack arms and legs, Gao Xuan is worthy of being the seed of the Gao family, there are not many other skills, and torturing people is a set.
Therefore, the Dali Temple, which is served by Gao Xuan as the secretary of the Dali Temple, is definitely the place that the Northern Qi Dynasty does not want to go to, there is no one! How much these people hate this old blind man, as for saying it in front of him, the righteous master!
Zu Ting is also a bitter and mean lord on weekdays, will he not fight back in the face of such condemnation? Immediately scolded one by one, the words were unimaginably harsh, several ministers were so angry that they wanted to fall on the spot, if it weren't for the decency of the important ministers, and there were eunuchs and forbidden troops who came out to maintain order, they would have rushed up and beaten this old thief to death, how could he be so arrogant and presumptuous!?
Of course, Zu Ting is not very comfortable, after all, he is the lonely side of this scolding battle, although he still has a slight upper hand on the tongue, but it is inevitable to push and shove when arguing. What's more, most of his opponents are descendants of military leaders who came out of the noble team.
One was accidentally pushed by someone, and the other was accidentally greeted in the face with an old punch, these are all normal categories. Of course, Zu Ting will not be easily bullied, his nails have not been repaired for a month, which just comes in handy!
The others finally pulled away from these two groups, and while they were still angry, they claimed that they wanted to impeach Zu Ting, telling Zu Ting to stay at home obediently and wait for the guilt. Zu Ting also released cruel words that this year's official assessment should be intensified, and the threat implication is almost naked. It's really a needle-to-wheat mang, bandits meet hooligans, it's breathtaking!
finally stopped, Zu Ting covered his cheeks and walked out of the palace gate without saying a word with a cold face. Then, he was stopped by Zheng Shangshu of the household department.
When Zu Ting heard that there were still people who dared to approach him at this juncture, he couldn't help but be stunned, and when he saw that it was the old opponent who was speaking, his heart suddenly became unhappy.
He's been punched in the face, and now he's starting to turn blue, and God knows if this old thing came out of here to taunt him? But there is no such possibility, Zheng Yu is not the kind of person who is full of food and support.
Zu Ting is quite smart, and the city government is also deep, so naturally he will not expose his true thoughts in his heart, but as usual, he is just cold. So he seemed to inadvertently and tentatively said: "You came to see the old man's jokes?" ”
Tobe Shangshu frowned slightly, not at all to joke, or to see the meaning of his joke, and said straightforwardly: "What kind of trick are you playing?" Do you know that now Your Majesty only needs one word to make you doomed? ”
Zu Tinghu glanced at him suspiciously, and then said, "You all know things, how can I not know?" The old man will never recover, isn't it just what you want, you ...... Now I can fall into the stone like them, anyway, I can only wait at home for His Majesty to cut me off. ”
"It's as if you are pitiful," Zheng Shangshu sneered, "Your bad luck is all done by yourself, and you can blame others." Even if one day you are beheaded all over the house, I won't feel strange at all, what the hell do you want to do? ”
Zu Ting said as a matter of course: "I want power, I am the right minister, and I should have the power and responsibility of a right minister!" But before, many things were completely decided by His Majesty's words, Zhao Yanshen did not fulfill the responsibilities of a prime minister at all, and the left and right prime ministers were almost just an ornament, how could it go on like this? In the future, His Majesty's power will become greater and greater, and who will be able to dissuade him? ”
"Yo, what a righteous and awe-inspiring right minister, if I hadn't known you for so long, the old man would have almost believed it." Zheng Yu sneered and sprayed without hesitation, "What was your Zu Ting like in front of His Majesty before, other colleagues didn't know, could the old man still know?" Then he almost lay down in front of His Majesty to be a cow and a horse, and after becoming the right minister, he actually had the courage to provoke the imperial power? Hehe, I don't believe it. ”
"Do you believe it or not, don't believe it!" Zu Ting was about to leave, and then he was actually pulled by Zheng Yu, an old guy, with his sleeves pulled again. Zheng Yu completely restrained his smile, and his serious expression made Zu Ting, who wanted to vaguely pass over, stunned, and only heard him say:
"You're a supreme minister now, isn't it good to do it in peace? If you have to toss around blindly to test Your Majesty's bottom line, what good will it do you? And also...... We're the ones who support you, can you give a serious word, are you going to do something to the Xunmen? ”
"What does this have to do with you?"
"Of course it matters, although we are not used to your virtue, but you and we are both prosperous and lossy, if you fall, the rest of the Hanchen will inevitably be purged...... The current situation has not been easy to come by, so I hope you are cautious. Zheng Yu said word by word, "Your Majesty, you may not want to see this result, if you win, it is easy to say, if you lose, not only you, the new policy of this dynasty is completely corrupted, and your ancestor is a sinner through the ages." ”
Zu Ting's sneer froze on his face, and then said: "This is like digging an ulcer, when it rots to a certain extent, it must be dug up with a knife." The six towns are an ulcer and a tumor in my Daqi! I've played against His Majesty before, and in fact what happened after that is really going in the direction we envisioned......
"I'm a bad old man, I won't live long, the only thing I care about is my name, and I always want to do my best for my family and country, so that I can leave my Zu Ting's name in the future.
"I used to want to do these things too, but either because of bad luck or not enough power, now I have a good chance...... According to His Majesty, I also think that I have not forgotten my original intention, right? ”
Zheng Yu looked at this opponent with mixed feelings.
Zu Ting is a person...... How can I evaluate it?
It seems that you can evaluate it as much as you want. He is despicable and shameless but also understands the righteousness, he flatters the subject but is also strong and unyielding, he has a small belly but also takes care of the overall situation, he forms a party for personal gain not to get any specific benefits, just for some false fame, everyone's praise can make him happy, that's all.
That's why this person is a little incomprehensible, and many times everyone can't figure out what this person thinks. But in any case, looking at the current situation of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Zu Ting is very weighty, regardless of some small sections, Zu Ting can even be said to be a pure person and a person worthy of respect.
Zheng Yu exhaled lightly and said, "What if Your Majesty disposes of you immediately?" ”
"Then I can only sue the old man and go to the border state, so that I can leave the life of the old and the young. If Your Majesty does not dispose of me, it means that Your Majesty's thoughts are actually the same as mine. ”
Zu Ting's remaining triangular eyes flashed with fine light, "Since Your Majesty has not disposed of me like this, I can also rest assured that I can do it boldly!" My ancestor has gambled on the lives of the whole family and acted as His Majesty's pawn! ”
After Cushman & Wakefield retired, he was in a very unhappy mood. Zu Ting disregarded his face and confronted him in front of so many courtiers, which really embarrassed him. To put it mildly, Dazai has to pay attention to proportionality when he speaks in front of him, and Zu Tingfu wants to use the emperor as a raft as soon as he ascends the throne, is this underdrawn? This old guy, has he forgotten, who is his backer?
So the emperor had a cold face all the way, causing the attendants who followed him not to say anything at all, and a low pressure shrouded the emperor's surroundings, and everyone was trembling and had to wait carefully. Finally arrived at Jiafu Palace, Gao Wei raised his feet and sat down, and sat down without saying a word.
At this time, Wan'er's mother and son were coming back from outside, and they saw her husband sitting on the couch with a displeased face, so she smiled and quipped: "Why is Your Majesty free to come over at this time, and you didn't go to court today?" ”
Gao Wei restrained his anger, but he still kept a strained face, and snorted coldly: "What is the court?" Anyway, there is no, I am conscientious and conscientious in managing the country, and I will be scolded as a coward, so I won't go. ”
The queen saw that her husband was on fire now, men, sometimes he just likes to play with children's tempers, and after a while he will be fine, so she stuffed her son into the crook of his arm, "Okay, it's rare to have time anyway, it's good to help take care of Yu'er." ”
This small meat dumpling was stuffed into his arms, and Gao Wei couldn't care about being angry, and affectionately took off his chin and Mosuo's meaty face. Xiao Yu'er lived a peaceful and happy life, eating, sleeping and sleeping all day long, raw white fat and round, crying loudly, Gao Wei saw that he was liked, pinched him a few more times, he was actually angry, staring at his father with wide eyes, full of energy, not at all like a premature child.
The nature of this father and son is to like to with people, no one obeys anyone, and then Gao Wei pricked his face with the freshly shaved stubble, Xiao Yu'er couldn't resist, his face hurt again, and he actually cried, and his cheeks turned his head to look at his mother with tears, crying and accusing the unscrupulous father's atrocities. Wan'er stretched out her hand and twisted it on her husband's shoulder, then hugged the little meat dumpling, coaxed carefully, and glanced at Gao Wei by the way:
"Let you coax him, don't make him cry. Always bullying children, do you have a father who does this? Gao Wei was embarrassed by her glare, knowing that he couldn't let her continue, and planned to pass the test vaguely, and said with a smile: "Where did you go?" ”
"You can still go there, go to the Imperial Garden, the kites made by my little aunt are fun, isn't it?" The second half is said to the meat dumplings, and the meat dumplings are good at this point, as long as there is play, he is very worry-free. The female officer who followed behind heard the song and knew the elegance, and hurriedly sent the kite up, Gao Heng stopped crying, and reached out to touch his toy.
Since having a stinky boy, Cushman has clearly felt that his status has plummeted. Of course, he's going to have a little kid there, but he is a generous man! So he couldn't hold back the sour feeling in his heart, and said in surprise: "Baoqing's girl still makes these gadgets?" ”
"Hehe, she's weird, what she doesn't know?" Wan'er found a place next to him and sat down, and teased: "Say, who made our Majesty unhappy?" ”
"Who else, Zu Tingbei! This old thief, I'm going to kill him sooner or later! Dare to step on me, tired of him? Cushman & Wakefield was still indignant. The daughter-in-law thought for a while, and then said, "This old thief is really strange and annoying, so it's better to kill it sooner." ”
Gao Wei was silent for a while, according to the normal routine, shouldn't he scold Zu Ting first, and then she gently persuaded herself. What's going on now? Can this Zu Ting be killed casually?
knew that her husband was angry and didn't know how to persuade him, but instead instigated him to kill the minister indiscriminately? Is this the way a virtuous queen should think and act?
Because the queen did not follow Gao Wei's script, after Gao Wei's cruel words were released, he couldn't get off the stage a little, and after a while, he said with a black face:
"He is an important minister of the imperial court, and he is the right minister who I personally support, but within a few days, I killed him because of my confrontation, isn't it a joke? Where do you put my face? ”
"The concubine doesn't know, Your Majesty just knows it, since it can't be abolished, and it can't be killed, what can you do but endure it?"
Bear with him? How to endure it? Cushman & Wakefield hasn't experienced this kind of gas for a long time.
But what the queen said also makes sense, this old thief hates and hates it, but ...... Can't kill yet! Kill Zu Ting, who will deal with the nobles?
But letting Zu Ting go like this is too cheap for him.
What should I do?
Cushman sat silently on the couch and began to think about it.
PS: There will be a big chapter of more than 4,000 words tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and it should be repaid as a debt, there are really some other things. I don't have a habit of staying up late to code words.
