The struggle of the reborn prince

As a result, two groups headed by Jin Guo's Taishi, Bingmadu Marshal Wushu, and Jin's Shangshuyou Prime Minister Han Qixian appeared in the Jin Dynasty.If analyzed in terms of military strength, it is obvious that the 'Song Party' backed by Wushu will have an absolute advantage, but the prestige and qualifications of the old Prime Minister Han are there. , The struggle between the two parties is basically evenly divided, with each winning.

Wushu did not dare to touch Han Fang easily because his qualifications and prestige were too high. The former veterans of the three dynasties had received special care from Aguda and Wu Qimai. He didn't dare to touch this generation of sages easily.On the other hand, Han Fang is indeed outstanding. This prime minister has a good knowledge of the past and the present, and knows people well. Officials at all levels recommended by him can basically perform their duties. Gan, Nianhan, and Wushu all praised Han Qixian for this ability, and now he has become the leader of the Han officials of the Jin Kingdom.

The power of the two parties tends to be balanced, and it is difficult to distinguish the superiority for a while.However, this balance of power was quickly broken, because Han Fang, the prime minister behind the 'Liao Party', finally fell ill.The report of Han Fang's critical illness was of course a great joy to Wu Shu. In order to express his "concern" for the old prime minister's health, Wu Shu even went to visit Han Fang himself.Of course, the purpose of Wu Shu's visit was not to care about Han Fang's physical condition, but to inquire about Han Fang's subsequent arrangements, that is, the issue of the successor of Prime Minister Shang Shuyou.

However, even if Han Fang was about to die, he didn't give Wushu any face. He strongly recommended his favorite student Tian Jue to be the Prime Minister of You.This made Wu Shu very angry. I thought Han Fang would save face.He recommended members of his own group to take up the position of Prime Minister You, so he vented his anger on Tian Jue.He scolded Tian Jue in public that "this generation can be killed".What's even more coincidental is that Tian Jue happened to be visiting the teacher's mansion at that time, when Wu Shu entered the mansion.By the way, Tian Jue hid in the mansion and eavesdropped on the conversation of the two big men. When he heard Wu Shu scold Tian Jue that he could kill him, he almost fainted from fright. Tighten Han Fang's thigh.

It is also very strange to say that Han Fang's illness came about very strangely. It was not long after the emperor named him king that he had a big banquet in the mansion, and as a result, he fell ill with joy and sorrow. The symptoms were fever, thirst, irritability, and difficulty urinating. , Stool and dysentery.His family sought medical advice everywhere.Even Wan Yanquan personally sent an imperial physician to treat Han Qi first, but all efforts had no effect, and Han Fang's condition continued unabated.In order to save the life of the old prime minister, he had no choice but to use the last resort of hanging up the list to seek medical treatment.

Han Fang is an important minister of the country, and his condition is weird, so no one dared to come forward to announce the list.However, there are also people who are not afraid of death. Just two days after Wu Shu went to the Han Mansion to visit the sick, someone really picked up the imperial list.This is really not bad for the "miracle doctor" technology, a few medicines go on.The old man's condition began to ease.A few days later, Han Fang's symptoms were greatly relieved, and he was able to get out of bed and walk. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.The old man's life was saved, and everyone's status was also saved.But just when everyone thought that Han Fang would return to work soon, his condition suddenly deteriorated.And the "miracle doctor" who has been treating him has also mysteriously disappeared, and a group of people helplessly watched Han Fang die...

Following the sudden death of Han Fang, a generation of virtuous ministers of the Kingdom of Jin.The balance of power between the Song Party and the Liao Party was immediately broken.Before the members of the Liao Party found out the truth about Han Fang's death, the storm in Dajin's officialdom had already arrived.Tian Jue, the number one candidate for the Right Prime Minister, not only failed to become a regular.And soon he was demoted to be the governor of the Henghai Navy, and all the officials of the Shangshu Province under Tian Jue were demoted. At one time, more than half of the officials of the entire Shangshu Province were purged, and the Shangshu Province of the Jin Dynasty was empty. The political hub of the entire country The center is in danger of being paralyzed.

But how could there be no one in Dajin Chaotang with Taishi Wushu? Since the Liao Party has fallen, let your own Song Party come to power.So Cai Songnian served as Zuosi member Wailang, Cao Wangzhi served as official member Wailang, and all members of the Cai Party re-occupied important positions in Shangshu Province.But Wu Shu seems to have forgotten the most important position, that is, the position of Chancellor You Chancellor in front of Han Fang. It stands to reason that the Song Party has made great contributions in the struggle against the Liao Party. Characters to take up the position of the right prime minister.

But to the surprise of all members of the Cai party group, Comrade Wushu actually found an outsider to be in charge of the sixth department of Shangshu Province. This man was named Zhang Hao, and he was from Bohai, Liaoyang.This person is not less experienced than Han Fang. As early as when Aguda conquered Tokyo in the Liao Kingdom, Zhang Hao began to serve as Aguda's Yingqianwen, that is, his private secretary.In the following 20 years, Zhang Hao seemed to have become unknown, and he did not appear in the sight of the emperor of the Jin Kingdom at all, and thus escaped the political purges of the Jin Kingdom one after another, and survived.

The situation lasted until Wanyan Xiyin was out of the game under the blow of Wushu, and Zhang Haocai entered the Shangshu Province again, and successively served as the waiter of the Ministry of Households, Workers, and the Ministry of Rites.Although Wu Shu trusts the members of the Song Party headed by Cai Songnian, he knows very well that with the qualifications and abilities of Cai Songnian and others, it is difficult to hold the important position of Prime Minister You at present. Temporarily move out Zhang Hao, the veteran of the Three Dynasties, to stabilize the situation.And Comrade Zhang Hao lived up to his expectations and fulfilled his mission very well. The national hub of the Jin Kingdom Shangshu Province is operating normally again...

In just a few months, Wushu settled the empress, killed Han Fang, and eliminated the Liao Party among the Han officials with lightning.But in fact, there was a wave of ups and downs, and the officials of the Jin Dynasty's Han Party who were not afraid of death jumped out to fight against the officials of the Jurchen Party headed by Wushu.This person is Yuwen Xuzhong, who belongs to his confidant's party, which of course makes Wushu very annoyed, and also feels very tricky!

Yu Wenxuzhong came to the Kingdom of Jin as a trophy of the Jurchens, and he caught up with Wu Qimai and changed to Hanli after a short time as a prisoner.Since the Kingdom of Jin was established not long ago, many officials of the Jurchen tribe would not be able to recite poems at all. The so-called poets and writers in the literary circles of the Kingdom of Jin were all descendants of the Han nationality from the original Liao Kingdom and Song Dynasty. more famous.

Under the recommendation of Han Fang, Zong Han and others, Yuwen Xuzhong's status has also risen, and he has gradually entered the senior leadership of the Jin Kingdom and participated in state affairs.After Wanyan Quan succeeded to the throne, Yu Wenxuzhong's fate was changed again.The young emperor Wanyan Quan admired Han culture very much, especially appreciated the Han literati in Liao and Song, and began to promote a large number of Han officials. Yu Wenxuzhong was a rare talent in the literary circle of Jin at that time. His literary skills Quite profound, and at that time the literary circles of the Kingdom of Jin, which were dominated by Jurchen officials, were basically hard-to-find opponents, so Wan Yanquan, who had always cherished talents, had to be promoted to Yu Wenxuzhong.

Yu Wenxuzhong's political status and power in the Kingdom of Jin finally reached an unattainable height, and he personally became one of Wanyan Quan's favorites. ".Even after the peace talks between the Kingdom of Jin and the Song Dynasty began, Wan Yanquan specifically instructed Wu Shu to find a way to bring Yu Wenxuzhong's family members in the Song Dynasty to help him solve his personal family problems.

The status and honor came so easily, Yu Wenxuzhong, who was originally a prisoner of the Kingdom of Jin, began to be dazzled by the victory and flowers. He thought that his literary talent was outstanding among his peers in the Kingdom of Jin, so he began to be complacent and defiant. He despises Jurchen officials who are completely lacking in literature. After Han Fang's death, he regarded himself as the leader of Han officials.

Yu Wenxuzhong's lofty demeanor must have aroused the displeasure of most of the Jurchen nobles and officials, and their resentment towards him is also increasing day by day, and they are always looking for good opportunities to deal with Yuwenxuzhong, which of course also includes Wushu.But Yu Wenxuzhong is no better than an unknown person, he can kill if he wants to, his backer is the current emperor of Jin Kingdom Wan Yanquan, and his Wushu is good enough, but he also knows that he can't directly kill the emperor's cronies.

In the past, Wushu might wait for the opportunity to strike, but now he has no patience. He needs a team that completely obeys his command, not a troublemaker who is always elbowing, even if he is the emperor's favorite, so that Jin The country takes advantage of the short-term opportunity to achieve peace with the Song Dynasty to struggle out of the vortex of recession as soon as possible, otherwise it will be swallowed by the Song Dynasty one day...

Wu Shu is getting angry for Yu Wenxu, so is Zhao Tun.He knows how difficult it is to cultivate a successful spy, which is not much easier than cultivating a champion. People who die on this road do not know how to generalize, and the price paid is often incalculable.And like Yu Wenxuzhong, who successfully penetrated into the enemy's country and successfully entered the decision-making level, there are no spies who can get access to core secrets and affect the policy direction of a country. They can play a role in turning things around at critical moments, and their value is It is not an exaggeration to call it a national treasure that cannot be measured by money.

Today, Zhao Tun saw at a glance from the information sent back by Jin Guo that what Yuwen Xuzhong is doing now has violated the most basic code of conduct for a spy - keeping a low profile.The spy itself pays attention to the profession of walking on the tip of the knife. He must always be alert to his surroundings and hide his secrets in the shadows so that no outsiders can see them.But now that he is now an open enemy of Wushu, he will definitely attract extra attention, which is tantamount to exposing his invisible side to the sun...
