Chapter 569
"I...beg...beg for bones..."

"Your Majesty! Ding Daquan should be dismissed, not resigned. I beg Your Majesty to order you!"

Following the mournful and angry shouts, many courtiers in the hall looked at Li Xia who was standing aside, who had acted as if he had nothing to do with him.

Li Xia had only returned to the court for five or six days, and he actually brought down Prime Minister Ding?

Since Uncle Xie Fang, this is another prime minister in his hands.

But some people can see clearly that Ding Daquan was not brought down by Li Xia.

In essence, Wu Qian and Jia Sidao teamed up to defeat Ding Daquan...

Why did Ding Daquan choose someone like Zhou Zhenyan as his son-in-law, and come up with such a foolish trick?Why can't Ding Daquan, who covers the sky with his hands, even find out that Zhou Zhenyan has a wife?

Because of Wu Qian's tenure as Prime Minister, Ding Dang's party members have been losing power in a big way.

In government affairs, the right minister Wu Qian tightly suppressed the left minister Ding Daquan.

This is a talent gap that cannot be bridged.

……

Others only saw that after Wu Qian recovered, one of the things he often did was to ask the officials to dismiss Ding Daquan.

It is true that he is too upright to offend His Majesty.

However, every time Wu Qian's impeachment is actually to show his attitude - even if His Majesty does not dismiss Ding Daquan, the minister will also deal with Ding's party members.

As the right prime minister, he can do it.

It can be said that Wu Qian is not completely foolish and loyal, but has fulfilled his duties as a minister and maintained his dignity as a courtier.

When Zhao Yun really intends to dismiss Ding Daquan, he will find that Wu Qian has arranged many important official positions or prepared a list of filling vacancies.

But Zhao Yun still hates Wu Qian, because Wu Qian's approach is too rigid and straightforward.

Claiming to be loyal to the country, disregarding the majesty of the king!
And it is because Wu Qian did this that Ding Daquan dismissed his prime minister today, and the state affairs can be correct; therefore Jia Sidao has always said that the Ding Party "is over."

Ding Daquan can only invite the holy family to dismiss Wu Qian.

Therefore, Jia Sidao made a move to destroy Ding Daquan's holy family.

With Wu Qian's ability and Jia Sidao's strategy, what if the two are willing to work together?

For example, when Jia Sidao moved the town of Jiujiang and stabilized the defense of Jiangxi and Huaihe River overnight, a series of logistics such as food, troops, etc., all depended on Wu Qian's deployment in the court.

Even when Kublai Khan saw it, he also asserted that he could not win quickly, so he withdrew his troops.

Jia Sidao's strategy can make up for Wu Qian's rigidity but is easy to break;
Wu Qian's talent can make up for Jia Sidao's ambition.

Ding Daquan was no match for them at all.

It's just that when they made the last step, Li Xia took a step ahead...

~~
"Decree, surrender Ding Daquan as a doctor of Zhongfeng, and move to the fourth training envoy of the Nankang Army..."

"Minister... take the decree, thank you Shengen!"

Ding Daquan slowly fell to his knees and raised his hands high.

The evidence presented in public was not that he chose Zhou Zhenyan to deceive the officials.It was fraud in the examination room, the defeat of Huaixi, the occupation of people's land, embezzlement of power and bribery... His crimes are too numerous to record.

This is not the first time that these criminal evidences have been raised, and he has always stood firm.

But today is different, he lost his holy family...

Ding Daquan knew that it was useless to struggle any longer, he only hoped to save his life.

The imperial court does not kill scholar-bureaucrats, but nominally, he is still an official.

However, although the imperial court did not kill him, there are too many people in the world who want to kill him...

After accepting the order, Ding Daquan turned his head and gave Li Xia a vicious look.

Because Li Xia once asked Guan De to tell him, "Jia Sidao has already grasped Zhou Zhenyan's handle, and Ding Xiang chose Zhou Zhenyan as his son-in-law, which is dangerous. Li Xia has a way to erase these handles, but it needs money..."

The gold and silver have been sent over.

But I didn't expect Li Xia to strike back.

Looking back at this moment, it was both resentment and threat - "Save my life, or you will never get better."

~~
Li Xia saw Ding Daquan's eyes.

He doesn't care.

In the eyes of the officials, even if Li Xia is a little greedy for money, it doesn't matter.

The only reason to ask for Ding Daquan's money is to give Jia Sidao the false impression that "Li Xia and Ding Daquan are in a conspiracy", which makes Jia Sidao fall into a misunderstanding, and he cannot immediately think that Li Xia will report Ding Daquan first.

Grab a time difference.

Then, take the credit that Jia Sidao has arranged for a long time... and give it to Concubine Yan.

It can only be given to Concubine Yan, otherwise Li Xia has no reason to investigate Zhou Zhenyan at all.

For Li Xia, this matter hurt others and benefited himself.

It is of no benefit for him to report Ding Daquan, it will only make Zhao Yun evil and make him a target of public criticism.

Originally, Li Xia still had a lot of plans that needed Ding Daquan's help.

If possible, he wanted to save Ding Daquan, but unfortunately he was too treacherous and stupid.

With the joint efforts of Jia Sidao and Wu Qian, he could not save Ding Daquan.

That being the case, in addition to avoiding future troubles, at the same time help Concubine Yan recover, cited as aid.

As for those handles about Jia Sidao, Li Xia didn't plan to hand them over to Zhao Yun from the beginning.

Because, harm others and yourself.

Even if it proves that Jia Sidao Ming is inducing but not sending out and waiting for the officials to suffer, it will not hurt Jia Sidao's root, it will only irritate the other party.

It's better to make a deal.

After the deal was made, Jia Sidao would turn around to deal with Wu Qian after he paid his respects smoothly, while Li Xia and Concubine Yan got a chance to breathe.

In the officialdom, it is beneficial to cooperate.

Fighting for power and power, only talking about interests.

~~
Li Xia is still in the process of dealing with it, and has made some progress in the art of maneuvering.

Originally, he could only be regarded as a general, but now he has begun to make up for political deficiencies.

Because, his ambition is not only generals, politicians, he wants to be comprehensive.

You can't avoid it just because you think "partisanship and infighting are so dirty".

Farmers want to plant the land and still have to drip manure, but to protect the land of tens of thousands of farmers, they don't want to touch any dirty water.

To stand up for things, you must not be timid, and you must not be timid in struggle.

If you are not as good as others, then learn, learn tactics, learn governance, and make up for your shortcomings.

After making up for the shortcomings, even if you are not as good as others, you will have a chance to bet on your other strengths.

He can only be scheming, at most he can only become Shi Miyuan;

Can only govern, at most can only become Wen Yanbo;

He can only fight, at most he can only become Zhang Jun;
It can only make guns, and at most it can only become a stereotype.

Because this is the Song Dynasty.

What Jia Sidao said was indeed from the bottom of his heart.

The official system of the Song Dynasty made the career Li Xia wanted to do many times more difficult.

Encouragement by officials and positions, peace of mind of civil servants and generals, local officials are all "sent", so that the officials will not have the name of township for a long time.

It is difficult to seek rebellion, and it is even more difficult to revolt. There is no way to survive between the two forces.

Therefore, the process of history is to wait until 100 years later, when a dynasty has decayed and has no foreign enemies, someone can change the world.

That's why Jia Sidao said that the power of the world rests with the Privy Council, and he wants to protect the mountains and rivers with only one hand in the position of prime minister.

He sees it very thoroughly, and he can be called the most intelligent person in the world.

The same is true for Wu Qian, but he is much more upright than Jia Sidao.

~~
Li Xia is far less intelligent than them, and Li Xia thinks that his strength is that he is not a person of the world.

He has many ideas that are advanced in the world, such as people's livelihood and technology, but it takes too long to realize.

Until there is a turning point, that is, the power is so great that the court dare not move easily.

Otherwise, when the influence has just emerged and there is only a little threat, it will be wiped out.

Because, the entire framework of the Song Dynasty was naturally anti-rebellion.

So tricks are needed.

Machiavellianism should not be overdone, but it cannot be absent.

It is a protective umbrella, and Li Xia needs to use it to protect the growing rebel forces.

This is what he will do in his trip to Lin'an.

He kept telling himself that the purpose of coming this time was to learn tricks and then use tricks to prop up the umbrella instead of smashing everything and burning everything.

Therefore, the best strategy Li Xia wanted was to win the emperor's trust.

For this reason, the various plans of Shangce have been successful, some are in progress, and some have failed.

She has escaped the Zhang family's estrangement scheme, and has helped Concubine Yan rise to become his aid;
He is still in contact with Wu Qian and Jia Sidao, trying to get them to continue to support him as Shu Shuai;
Dante is gone, and all follow-up plans that need the help of Ding Dang will have to be adjusted.

……

During the boring court meeting, Li Xia was thinking about these things.

"You are wronged! You are wronged..."

Hearing someone yelling suddenly, Li Xia came back to his senses and turned his head to look, only then did he realize that Zhou Zhenyan, the champion of the new discipline, was also at the court meeting.

"Decree, deprive Zhou Zhenyan of the title of No. [-] Scholar, drop him to the bottom of the Sijia, and serve as Yazhou Sihu to join the army...Lead the order to thank you."

This is exile.

Li Xia recalled the killing intent in Jia Sidao's eyes before, and knew that Zhou Zhenyan would definitely not live in Yazhou.

He was a little bored thinking about... the ranking of the Lin'an society that Jiang Fan mentioned, No. 1 is his own.

Looking back, Jia Sidao was looking at the official on the dragon chair, and nodded.

Well, I can't live anymore.

How can a princess be married...

~~
It was not easy to break up the court meeting.

Li Xia was following the crowd towards Li's main entrance, the official wings on his head were not shaking at all, and he walked steadily as if he had been a minister for many years.

Suddenly, a thin voice sounded.

"Li Jieshuai stay here."

Li Xia looked back and saluted, "It turned out to be Chief Sun."

Sun An was very surprised, and said happily, "Li Jieshuai still remembers the slaves?"

Li Xia pointed to a jade pendant on his waist, and replied, "I dare not forget."

The smile on Sun An's face grew wider.

"Your Majesty said that the previous banquet given to Li Jieshuai was disturbed by state affairs, and it was arranged for Concubine Yan Gui to make arrangements, so Li Jieshuai will be invited to enter the palace tomorrow night and attend the banquet in Chengbi Hall."

In a word, the message to be conveyed has been conveyed.

Li Xia then cupped his hands and said, "I accept the decree."

……

After that, Li Xia came out of Li's main gate, but met Zhao Yuxi again.

"It's nice to meet such a talented person as Feiyu today, how about having breakfast together?"

"I'm afraid it will delay the prefect's official duties."

"It's okay, it's okay."

"Then, respect is worse than obedience..."

Li Xia knew that if he went with Zhao Yuxi, he would offend Zhao Yurui even more.

But so what?The deep hatred has been forged long ago...
