Chapter 500: The Son of Heaven in the Distance
Just when Ye Ming and Li Xin in Jingzhou City were thinking hard about how to enter Shu, the recital written by the two of them before requesting a postponement of the dispatch of troops was also sent to the capital by urgent delivery.
Sent to the capital together, not only the two of them, but also the letters written by Li Xin and Ye Ming to their families, the reason why they were sent together was because not everything could be sent to the capital at such a six-hundred-mile speed, and the two of them could be regarded as having a little light in the book.
However, these things were not sent to the homes of the two of them, but all of them were sent to Shangshutai, and a few Zaifu led by Zhang Qu put these books on the table.
It is worth mentioning that since Zhang Qu became the witness of the enthronement edict, his position as the first assistant has become more and more stable, especially after Huan Chu went into the field, basically no one in the other prime ministers will have any different opinions with him, this Haoran Gong has become the undisputed leader of the new dynasty.
However, the impact of that incident was good and bad, the good thing is that Taikang Tianzi will always reuse Zhang Qu, and the disadvantage is that he will inevitably bear the infamy of "soft bones".
However, these are all details, as long as the Taikang Dynasty is still there, the status of Haoran Gong will be unshakable.
He first looked at the letters, then picked up Li Xin and Ye Ming's letters from them, handed them to the envoys beside him, and said, "Go and send them to the respective mansions of the two generals, why are the letters also sent here?" ”
As soon as he said this, the other four prime ministers all echoed him.
In fact, the family letters of the generals who lead the troops abroad, the imperial court will generally take a look at them with open or secret thoughts, Li Xin and Ye Ming sent the family letters through this channel, and they don't mind them reading it, but Zhang Xiang is obviously an upright gentleman and disdains to do this kind of thing.
As he spoke, the others naturally didn't dare to say anything, so they took the letters of the two people and went down.
And then there's the recital book sent by two people.
Generally speaking, the books sent from all over the country should be read first, not that they are more priority than the emperor, but they have to select the more important ones from them, and then hand them over to the Son of Heaven to deal with, otherwise the whole country and state affairs, an emperor will definitely not be able to deal with it.
But Ye Ming and Li Xin's joint recital, they have to show it to the Son of Heaven first.
Hao Ran Gong looked at the names of Ye Ming and Li Xin on the envelope, and frowned slightly.
Even if the two of you have a good personal relationship, but at this juncture, you shouldn't join hands like this, Ye Ming has also been in the court all his life, why can't you figure it out?
However, these things have nothing to do with him Zhang Qu after all, he held the envelope in his hand, glanced left and right, and said: "The southwest military should be the first major thing at present, let's not look at it first, the old man will go to Weiyang Palace and present His Majesty in person." ”
The others nodded their heads one after another.
"Hard work."
"It's been a hard work."
Zhang Qu stood up and glanced at the four colleagues in Shangshutai, not sad or happy in his heart.
Although he is powerful now, but this kind of power is not without a price, after all, when today's mutiny, no one says it now, no one will say it in the future, and most of the future history books will clearly record it, and at that time, he Zhang Qu will become one of the accomplices.
In other words, the current power is to exchange the future reputation.
To be honest, as a scholar who cherishes his reputation, Zhang Qu was not very willing to make this exchange, but this exchange was forced by the first emperor to do it, after all, he watched the first emperor lock the edict into the box.
Thinking of this, Hao Ran Gong sighed in his heart, held this book, and entered Weiyang Palace all the way.
At this time, it was already midsummer, the weather was a little hot, Zhang Xiang walked in the imperial city, walking in the shade of the palace wall, and after a while, he arrived at the gate of Weiyang Palace.
He was the first assistant of the dynasty, and before he could reach the gate of Weiyang Palace, someone went in to report, and after a while, Xiao Zheng, the young eunuch of the inner chamberlain, walked out in person, and arched his hand at Zhang Qu and said, "Why did Haoran Gong come in person?" ”
Zhang Qu nodded to Xiao Zheng, and then spoke: "There is an urgent letter sent over from the southwest, the old man is afraid that there is something urgent, so he personally sent it to His Majesty, if there is really something over there, the old man can listen to the holy will at any time." ”
Xiao Zheng walked to Zhang Xiang's side, hugged his sleeve, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is waiting for you inside, you can go in." ”
Zhang Xiang was very polite and nodded slightly at Xiao Zheng.
"There's Lao Xiaozheng."
But it's not that Zhang Qu treats people approachably, in fact, this old man is very proud on weekdays, except for giving some good looks to very outstanding scholars or peers, he usually has some taste that people are not close to, the reason why he is so polite to Xiao Zheng is because this young eunuch, if nothing else, will be the head of the inner court in the future.
At this time, it was already the middle of Taikang's second year.
That is to say, the former great eunuch Chen Ju, who has been guarding the imperial tomb for a year and a half, is most likely unlikely to come back, although Chen Ju is still hanging the position of the eunuch of the inner chamberlain, but as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that today's Son of Heaven prefers the young man in front of him.
Although the inner court of the Great Jin Dynasty does not interfere in political affairs, the authority of the eight eunuchs of the inner court is not small, and the Tianmu Prison can directly supervise hundreds of officials and act as the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, not to the point of having to offend, no one will want to offend this seemingly inconspicuous young eunuch.
After all, if he really takes charge of the inner court completely in the future, a small report from Tianmu Jian can make all the officials in the capital tremble.
The two of them entered the study of Weiyang Palace one after the other, and at this time, Taikang Tianzi was not taking care of political affairs, but holding a book, half lying on the recliner and reading it staggeringly.
This novelty was made by Jing'anhou when he was in the capital, and later Taikang Tianzi saw it when he went to Jing'anhou's mansion, so he asked Jing'anhou to help him get one, and it was quite leisurely to lie on it when he had nothing to do.
But this thing is a little not very solemn, so when Zhang Qu was waiting outside and Xiao Zheng came in to report, Taikang Tianzi stood up from the chaise longue and instructed a few palace people to hide the chaise longiser, and then the Son of Heaven sat on the chair again, and then Zhang Xiang was able to come in.
After Zhang Qu saluted, the Son of Heaven got up with a smile and said, "Haoran Gong has a book, just send someone to send it over, why did you run away in person?" ”
"It's a recital from the Southwest."
After Zhang Qu paused, he bowed his head and said: "It's a joint letter signed by General Ye and Jing'an Hou, and the old minister is afraid that something big will happen in the southwest, so he will simply come and present it to His Majesty in person." ”
Taikang Tianzi's face changed slightly.
At this time, if there is any urgent recital, it should be the war in the southwest.
The front line is already fighting?
Xiao Zheng on the side was very eye-catching, and stepped forward to hold the letter in front of the Son of Heaven.
By this time, the envelope had been removed.
The Son of Heaven opened the book and after a brief glance, his face became a little soothed.
"Zhang Xiang rest assured, the southwest has not yet started fighting."
The Son of Heaven continued to read until he saw the place where the payment was made, and two names were written.
His Majesty, the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, frowned slightly.
The power of the Ye family seems to be too great.
He felt a little uncomfortable.
"Zhang Xiang, this recital, you take it back to Shangshutai to discuss it, and give me an answer tomorrow."
