Song Dynasty Cannon Fodder Counterattack Record

Chapter 282 Struggle

At this time, it was already the early autumn of the second year of Zhihe. Pang Ji had been prime minister for five years, which was long enough. Li Buqi also paid off the national debt of 100 million yuan. The courtiers have always used the method of becoming big, and Pang Ji was dismissed because of a trivial incident, and he went to play in Shaanxi.The former prime minister Wen Yanbo successfully counterattacked and once again served as Zuo Pushe, and You Pushe was replaced by former prime minister Chen Zhizhong.Fu Bi also returned to the court and served as the Minister of Zhongshu, who was equivalent to the original political affairs. Since the death of the great god Fan Zhongyan, the Qingli party has no leader, which greatly reduces the vigilance of those who oppose the reform. Use it again.

However, even if Fu Bi, a member of the Qingli Party, became the Minister of Zhongshu, he was not as eye-catching as another person who was included in the "Qingli Party". This person is Han Qi, the new deputy envoy of the Privy Council.And Han Qi's attention is not because of himself, but because of Di Qing, the privy envoy appointed by the emperor.

Back then in Shaanxi, Di Qing was Han Qi's subordinate, and the grievances between the two are well known, but now Di Qing is Han Qi's immediate boss.Han Qi had ridiculed Di Qing face to face and said, "Donghuamen is a good man only if he sings his name", but Di Qing now manages Han Qi, a civil official, as a warrior with a gold seal on his face. I'm afraid only Han Qi's client will know.This can be seen from the fact that Han Qi is said to have never smiled in front of Di Qing.Therefore, everyone in the capital is waiting to see the excitement.

The golden seal on Di Qing's face and the military man Wang Deyong as a privy envoy is not only a satire to Han Qi, but also a satire to many civil officials who claim to be both civil and military, and know everything. Qi is not fighting alone.Ever since Di Qing was appointed as the privy envoy, civil servants have never stopped framing Di Qing.

In the past two days, there have been new rumors about Di Qing. There are rumors that someone saw two horns growing on the head of Di Qing's dog, which is a sign that the owner will become an emperor.Immediately, more than a dozen censors wrote a letter to report to the emperor like chicken blood, and they even made alarmist remarks alluding to the possibility that Di Qing, a privy envoy, might be adorned by a yellow robe.

The Xuande Gate hadn't opened in the morning, so hundreds of officials had to stand in the square in front of the Xuande Gate and wait for the court.This was the time when officials usually exchanged information and had a close relationship. Most of the people gathered around and chatted in low voices.Among the many officials, because of their special status, the censors are not willing to mix with them, and they can't mix with others, so they naturally form a group of their own.But now, whenever they are waiting in front of the Xuande Gate to go to court, the censors will always be divided into two groups, whispering their own whispers, and not paying attention to each other.

There were only three of them in the small group, and one of them asked a thin and beardless one: "Qinfu, I was not at Yushitai yesterday, and I heard that Sun Zhongcheng blamed you? I don't know why."

Another dark-faced and fat man said for Qin Lian: "Brother Gai, this matter is really annoying. My younger brother thought Sun Zhongcheng was looking for faults. He also accused Qinfu of poor writing skills, did not understand Spring and Autumn calligraphy, and was not suitable for Yushitai. What about the style of writing. My younger brother thinks that Sun Zhongcheng just finds that those of us who have been promoted by doing practical things are not pleasing to the eye, and pick the bones in the egg."

The censor surnamed Gai was the oldest among the three, and his temperament was the calmest. He said with a smile, "Zitong can't say that about Sun Zhongcheng. If it's true, the three of us really don't fit in with the style of this censor platform."

He raised his head and looked at the censors who were surrounded by Yushi Zhongcheng Sun Yan not far away, and smiled slightly: "The three of us can only do practical things, even when writing articles, we are used to getting to the bottom of it. The style of writing doesn't match. It's not that Sun Zhongcheng deliberately made things difficult for us."

Qin Lian said helplessly: "If you don't pay attention to the word "real", how can Hebei and Guangnan settle down? It can be seen that if you want the country to be peaceful and the people safe, you cannot do without the word 'real'. Doesn't even your majesty issue an edict?" I want everyone to discuss that in the future, I will take the "practical study" test when I open a course to obtain a scholar. I learned the word "practical" in the academy back then, so I really can't do it by catching wind and shadows."

Gai Yushi smiled and said: "You are right. It is really difficult for people like us to catch wind and shadows. But why should we learn others to catch wind and shadows? The rankings of the three of us are all at the bottom of the scientific examination, and the articles are even worse. Don't dare to say that you are outstanding, but His Majesty simply put the three of us in this position of censor. In Brother Yu's view, it is His Majesty who wants to see something real. Nowadays, the court is full of people who are pragmatic, and we are also Going to retreat is no match for them, it is better to stick to one's duty and do some practical things, so as to be worthy of Your Majesty's kindness."

Both Qin Lian and Zhou Zitong claimed to be taught. At this time, the Xuande Gate was opened, and the officials entered the palace one by one.Gai Yushi seemed to casually glance at Yushi Zhongcheng, Sun Yan, and subconsciously touched this chapter in his arms.

A majestic figure walked past him and cast him a questioning look.This is his same year, also a classmate of Qingyuan Academy, Wang Yun who has just been transferred to the detective room of the police department.He immediately nodded slightly, indicating that he was ready.Wang Yun kept walking and walked past Gai Yushi.Gai Yushi also walked towards Xuande Gate as if nothing had happened.

Arriving at the Xuande gate, a censor just came in, and when he saw Gai Yushi and the others, he immediately cast a disgusted look.Gai Yushi kept a gentle smile on his face, but when that Yushi walked over, a faint sneer flashed on the corner of his mouth, his eyes flashed on Yushi Zhongcheng's back, and he said in his heart: "I won't leave you alone. Let’s bring it down, those of us who do practical things don’t want to have a bright future. You can’t blame me for your own death!”

Today is not a big court meeting, the emperor does not show his face outside the court according to the usual practice, he comes out as a right servant and shoots into the Chongzheng Hall to receive the edict, and asks as usual: "If you have something to do, play it early!"

As the voice fell, a person came out from the censor: "Chen Zhang, the minister of the censor, has a book. Recently, it has been rumored in the capital that there is a dog with horns growing on the forehead of Di Shumi's mansion, and there are many monsters. Everyone says this is the emperor's book." Zhao, the material discussion is in an uproar, and negligence is something to worry about. Please also calm down the material discussion, Your Majesty."

Now everyone looked at Di Qing, who was in the military commander class. Di Qing's face was as black as charcoal, but he had nothing to do with the censor who was spreading rumors.

Wen Yanbo nodded slightly, and asked, "Who else has the book?"

Gai Yushi walked out of the shift calmly, and said in a loud voice: "The censor, Gai Jiao, also has his own. I recently found out a big conspiracy, which also involved Di Shumi and Wang Shumi. This matter is really shocking, so we must face it. Play Your Majesty."

Now Di Qing's face turned green, and Wang Deyong's face was so gloomy that it was about to drip.

Wen Yanbo's thoughts suddenly changed, and he was not sure about Gaijiao's intention.The censors Zhongcheng Sun Yan and other censors looked at Gai Jiao even more complicatedly. They always regarded these three censors who were born in Qingyuan Academy and opened their mouths and shut up "practical learning" as warriors, so they didn't know this Gai Jiao Are you going to help Di Qing, or take the opportunity to step on Di Qing in order to gain Zhongcheng's approval.

Gai Jiao made the matter so serious, he was the censor, and Wen Yanbo had no reason not to let him see the emperor, so he led the two censors to Chongzheng Hall.

Serving the imperial historian Gao, it was naturally Chen Zhang who first reported to the emperor that there were various visions in Di Qing's house in the capital recently.

The emperor had seen this kind of thing a lot, so he just hummed and didn't express his opinion.Then it was Gai Jiao's turn. Before he opened his mouth, Gai Jiao took a look at Chen Zhang and said, "Your Majesty, I have also heard rumors about Di Shumi in the capital recently. Because this matter involves important officials of the court, you must not be careless. Therefore, I secretly investigated and visited. Unexpectedly, a big conspiracy was discovered."

What he said next was earth-shattering. "I heard that some treacherous ministers of the imperial court framed Privy Councilor Di and Privy Councilor Wang with rumors to achieve the purpose of controlling the Privy Council. As for their conspiracy, I think that the people who framed Privy Councilor Di are serious and must be guarded against. I ask your majesty to order the police department Thoroughly investigate the rumors about Di Shumi."

Although Gai Jiao didn't say what the purpose of the person who framed Di Qing was, but controlling the Privy Council would control the army to a certain extent, so the purpose is obvious.

Wen Yanbo's heart slipped all of a sudden, and his teeth itch with hatred for Sun Yan and the rest of the censors.He had long heard that the three censors from Qingyuan Academy in Yushitai had been severely excluded, and he had hinted to Sun Yan not to do anything wrong because of this matter.But those guys like Sun Yan want to show their spotless and noble morals, and they are not willing to tolerate the "treacherous" in the censor's team at all.

What does the censor do?It's just talking!Civil officials make decisions about military generals because no one in the court can speak to the generals.Now someone has spoken to Di Qing, and it seems that he is desperate, and he will not give up easily.

Wen Yanbo glanced at the suddenly bright eyes of the emperor, secretly startled.Since the emperor appointed Di Qing as the privy envoy, the civil servants kept writing letters hurting Di Qing, pushing the emperor too hard. Now Gaijiao provided the emperor with a hand, and Wen Yanbo was very worried that it would cause an earthquake in the court.As a person who is good at trying to figure out people's hearts, he understands that the emperor actually has a little temper.
