The smile on Song Xuan's face retracted, and he turned his head to look at Ji Xiao coldly.

"Are you pimping this officer?"

"After so many years in Xuanyiwei, you have been studying these things all day long?!"

As soon as these words came out, Ji Xiao's face suddenly became stiff, his flattering smile froze, his face was embarrassed, and he didn't know how to react for a while.

Fortunately, at this time, the courtiers bowed to the new emperor's ceremony, and the new emperor sat on the dragon chair and inspected the surroundings.

"There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat." As the confidant eunuch of the new emperor, Cao Zhengchun shouted at the top of his voice, although his voice was a little sharp, but in the ears of the ministers, it was a little rich.

This kind of vigor comes from strength, but also from the backers behind it.

The new son of the flawless grandmaster is his biggest backer, and Cao Zhengchun is unprecedentedly confident at the moment.

There was some silence in the courtroom.

The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and no one can figure out his temper, even if some officials originally had a book to play, they were hesitant at the moment, ready to wait and see.

If the gun shoots the first bird, it is better to let others wade through the troubled waters and touch the character of the Son of Heaven first.

Ji Xuanfeng looked at the officials of the six ministries, and at this moment, these high-ranking ministers bowed down one by one and couldn't see their expressions clearly, and they didn't have the slightest intention of being listed.

Even a few pavilion elders seemed to be wandering around the world, not knowing what they were thinking.

These old foxes!

Ji Xuanfeng snorted secretly, they are all refined guys, they are all waiting for others to come forward first, it seems that it is impossible to count on them to take the initiative, or they have to name them personally.

His gaze wandered, he glanced at the generals' group, groaned slightly, and then withdrew his gaze.

It's just that Da Zhou has not been at war with the outside world recently, and it is even more impossible for this group of martial artists to take the initiative to play the book.

In the stagnant atmosphere, Ji Xuanfeng glanced at Song Xuan vaguely and gave him a look.

Big brother, it's the first day of the day, can you warm up the scene?

Song Xuan was also speechless, but Xuan Yiwei and the Son of Heaven belonged to a community of interests, and the gang still had to help.

At that moment, he waved his sleeve robe and slowly walked out of the ranks, which immediately attracted the attention of a group of civil and military personnel.

Seeing him, the commander of the Xuanyi Guard, playing in person, many officials felt nervous, could it be that someone was going to be unlucky?

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book to play!"

As he spoke, Song Xuan beckoned to Zhao Dezhu, and Lao Zhao understood and took out a book from his sleeve robe.

It was Song Xuan's time in the Northern Song Dynasty that recorded the rebellion of Zheng Qian, the prefect of Sichuan-Chongqing Prefecture, and Gao Changlin, a thousand households.

"The minister went to Songzhou some time ago and dealt with a case of rebellion!"

Cao Zhengchun hurriedly walked over, respectfully took the fold from Song Xuan's hand, and presented it to Ji Xuanfeng.

Ji Xuanfeng glanced at it quickly, and immediately understood what Song Xuan meant.

The new official took office with three fires, and so did the new emperor!

Since you're all on the sidelines, well, I'll clean up a few unpleasant-looking prestige first.

"Songzhou, Zheng Qian, the prefect of Sichuan and Chongqing, colluded with Xuanyi Wei Qianhu Gao Changlin to rebel against ......"

Ji Xuanfeng's face began to be gloomy, and as soon as his complexion changed, the courtiers below became uneasy and panicked one by one.

Everyone is not stupid, and they understood right away that the Son of Heaven was deliberately trying to use the local rebellion case, and by the way, he wanted to clean up a few Beijing officials.

I just don't know how far the Son of Heaven wants to use this case to make trouble!

Song Xuan spoke again at this time, "The prefect Zheng Qian has been taken and is on the way back to the imperial capital, Gao Changlin has absconded, and I, Xuanyiwei, have already sent people to pursue him."

Your Majesty, rebellion is not an overnight thing, a local prefect rebels, there must be greater backers behind it! ”

As his words fell, the entire court finally warmed up.

It was no longer as quiet as just now, many people were breathing rapidly, and some officials standing in the distance lowered their heads and whispered to each other.

In the midst of everyone's nervousness, Lin Ruhai's tall and thin figure stood out.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that even if Zhao Kuangyin of Song Prefecture did not participate in it, he was not guilty of negligence.

The minister suggested that officials from the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai be sent to Songzhou to inspect the case and hold Zhao Kuangyin accountable. ”

Song Xuan tilted his head slightly, his cousin, this is to take this opportunity to take down a state pastor?

The state pastor, who belongs to the real feudal officials, is in charge of the military and political power of a state, and his power is so great that he can be said to be the emperor of the soil.

To be able to achieve this position, there is definitely an intricate relationship of interests with the court officials in the imperial capital, and there is no suitable reason and sufficient evidence, let alone take it, and it may not be easy to even transfer out.

Lin Ruhai started from Mingzhou, and only entered the cabinet in the past two years, and has nothing to do with Songzhou.

So he wanted to move Zhao Kuangyin without the slightest pressure.

It is best to become natural, and if it is not, it can be regarded as showing his sense of oppression and presence as a pavilion elder----- although the old man has been in the cabinet for a short time, and he has not yet formed a faction in the court, it does not mean that there is no foreign aid support behind the old man!

Ji Xuanfeng glanced at Wang Yan, the first assistant of the cabinet, "What does Wang Aiqing think?" ”

Wang Yan calmly came out of the ranks, as the first assistant, saying that he was exaggerating to lean towards the government and the opposition, but as the head of a hundred officials, his words and deeds should definitely not be taken lightly.

Over the years, Ji Xuanfeng has spent most of his time in retreat and cultivation, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, who can use and who can't, he doesn't know much, and he needs to make a decision after slow contact.

Although Ji Xuanfeng is the Son of Heaven and has absolute force, he always needs officials to govern the country, and the opinions of civil and military officials always have to be listened to.

"Your Majesty, Lin Xiang's opinion, the minister generally agrees, and the officials of the three divisions can be sent to inspect this case.

But to hold the state pastor accountable, is it a matter of delaying it first?

Zhao Kuangyin may have the responsibility of negligence, but he has been conscientious and conscientious in the position of state pastor for more than 20 years.

No one is perfect, as long as he does things, there will always be omissions, because of one thing, he denies his achievements for many years and is directly accountable, which inevitably seems that my central court treats foreign ministers a little harshly. ”

Song Xuan returned to his original position after heating up the scene and watched coldly.

He just started by throwing bricks and jade, as for the factional battles in the court, he is not very interested, just look at the excitement.

But he can also see it.

Wang Yan, the first assistant of the cabinet, even if he is not the backer behind Zhao Kuangyin, he definitely does not take the benefits of the other party, and this old guy is really reliable at the critical moment, and he is really willing to intercede for Zhao Kuangyin.

And Lin Ruhai wants to take this opportunity to bring down Zhao Kuangyin and improve his prestige, and it is estimated that he may also want to take the opportunity to hold Song Zhoumu's position in his own hands.

This cousin of his own, on weekdays, looks gentle and elegant, but he didn't expect that in the court battle, he was quite strong, and as soon as he made a move, he would collapse a state pastor, and even with it, he would also press the face of the first assistant of the cabinet.
