The morning sun spreads over the majestic palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info in the East Dynasty room, crowded, lively, very crowded. Junior officials can only stand in the corridors.

The scope of officials who can participate in the court meeting has already been mentioned above, so I will not repeat it. However, the foreign court discussed that nothing should be said to others. Talking about personnel today, you can't say that the officials are not qualified to come, right?

Another example is Jinyiwei, they want to come and sit and listen, this is impossible to be driven away, right? Also, the scribes who recorded, the nobles who were superb, and so on. These people, summed up in one sentence, can watch the excitement, but they are not qualified to speak. In layman's terms, it is called an observer. Therefore, it is understandable that junior officials are being squeezed out of the door.

At this time, the court discussion had not yet begun, and the officials were discussing with their friends and colleagues.

In fact, according to the usual practice, the court meeting will start early in the morning, and it will never be delayed until nine o'clock in the morning. The ministers are basically at five o'clock in the morning. The working hours of the yamen are 7 a.m. How can there be a matter of starting the court discussion at nine o'clock?

However, any system and rules will slowly loosen after a long time. Like the Chang Dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is only on every 369 days, not every day. After the appearance of Pravda, ministers and ministers were accustomed to reading the newspaper first and then discussing the matter.

Therefore, Scholar Ho set the time at mid-morning. This move won the hearts of all the ministers and ministers.

At this moment, the focus of discussion among the ministers in the Eastern Dynasty is the candidate who will be discussed at the meeting. At the end of September, Wu Yingdian held a meeting, and a total of four candidates were recommended by the court. However, Zeng Jin and Yin Peng were rejected by the Son of Heaven, and only Song Pu and Yu Zicheng were left.

And it is precisely this morning's Pravda newspaper that published an article by Yu Zicheng, the political envoy, on the front page: Suggesting a higher business tax. This is obviously a petition to Scholar Ho. And Song Tianguan had a bad relationship with Scholar He.

There are only two sides left. Today will be a contest of carriages and horses.

Song Tianguan took out his pocket watch and looked at it, coughed, and announced, "Let's start." "The Son of Heaven ordered He University to push the court, but the person who presided over the court push was still Song Pu, the secretary of the ministry. This is the embodiment of the status of the official book. Uphold the government.

Even if there is a scribe in the middle of the room to place the bookcase, put the book, pen and ink.

The nomination process, which has gone last time. There is really nothing to say about this court push. There are only two candidates left, and the vote is just waiting for the Son of Heaven to decide. But the Korean struggle is precisely this kind of one-force reduction of ten meetings, and the way of hand-to-hand combat is even more exciting.

In the quiet Dongchao room, there was a slight agitation at this time, and a low voice of conversation sounded.

At this time, while the scribe was placing things, Song Tianguan suddenly said to He Daxue, who was sitting in the front row in the center: "He Xiang, I recently heard a rumor that someone in Jiafu secretly took concubines during the period of national filial piety. ”

"Oh?" The noise suddenly became louder. Song Tianguan is provoking in person!

Who doesn't know what kind of scholar Jia Huan is? Jia Huan played a strong role in the debate over the introduction of a whip law. In charge of public opinion in Kyochu. As a science and Taoist official, he couldn't find trouble with He University if he was suppressed. Think about it, who cares about the excerpts of the official recitals attached to the back of Pravda? Let's all read the headlines on the front page!

During the period of national filial piety, he secretly accepted concubines, and said that he was disrespectful to the royal family, and his crime should be beheaded. To put it mildly, if you violate the etiquette law, you will be fined silver or hit the board. Before Song Tianguan voted in the court, he suddenly talked about this matter, obviously putting pressure on Scholar He. Trying to sway the votes.

He Shuo was in his sixties, tall, thin, dressed in a decent civil official robe, very dignified, glanced at Song Pu, and said lightly: "I heard? When did Song Shangshu change to Fengwen Song? If there is evidence, it will be discussed by the judge. ”

Scholar He has a tough attitude and a sarcastic tone. Immediately, someone laughed. At least half of them were laughing.

Song Pu gave He Shuo nothing to say, he didn't expect He Shuo to have this attitude. This made him unable to speak the basket of baskets he prepared later.

Song Tianguan snorted coldly in his nostrils. threw off his official robe, stepped forward and wrote his and Yu Zicheng's names in the book. After that, the ministers who were qualified for the court promotion stepped forward in turn and signed and voted on the books.

Later, Fei Minzheng, a scholar from the Chinese Calligraphy Department, stepped forward to count the votes: Song Pu 24 votes, Yu Zicheng 25 votes.

This result was somewhat unexpected by the courtiers. Song Tianguan stood opposite Scholar He, and he was only one vote away!

Prince Shun looked at the result with a smile, and it was obvious that he had made a difference in lobbying the king of Nan'an. sold Song Pu a favor. and then use the historian's Shi Nai to serve as the secretary of the military department, and in this political turmoil, the king of Jin will not lose.

After the results came out, Song Tianguan announced the results with an expressionless face, and said, "What else do you have to say?" If not, let it be dispersed. "The results of the court push were reported to the Military Aircraft Department. The Military Aircraft Department sent it to the Son of Heaven for approval.

In close hand-to-hand combat, the result was only one vote short. It is still up to the Son of Heaven to decide.

Looking at the lively courtiers from the east court's room, they were all a little excited. Anticlimactic! Shouldn't the script be: Song Tianguan provoked Scholar He Daxue, and then, Scholar He "hanged" Song Tianguan?

However, when all the courtiers thought that today's matter was over, in the afternoon, the recital reported to the Son of Heaven by the Military Aircraft Department was copied out, and the government and the opposition were in an uproar.

Scholar He only reported one candidate to the Son of Heaven: Yu Zicheng, the general political envoy of the General Political Department. Obviously, Scholar He was very dissatisfied with Song Tianguan.

…

…

The autumn wind in early October swept through the capital, and the chill was gusting, and the situation was stirring at this time: the contradiction between Scholar He and Song Tianguan surfaced.

In late autumn, the chrysanthemums bloom in the West Garden, and the trees are sparsely leafed. In the trees and gardens, there are bursts of yellow leaves blown up by the wind. Several eunuchs sent the recital approved by the Son of Heaven to the military aircraft.

In the Wenyuan Pavilion, Hanlin signed the painting on the turn and took over the chapter. They opened the recital of the Son of Heaven's reply to the results of the fifth day of October: reconsider.

When the news broke, this was another decision that surprised the courtiers extremely unexpectedly.

Some people interpret it: It is obvious that the Son of Heaven wants to canonize Yang Guifei as the imperial concubine. As long as the scholar He takes a recital, or instructs a close official, he takes a recital. This matter will be solved.

However, the courtiers will think in their hearts, whether the status of He Daxue, who has been in power since the thirteenth year of Yongzhi, is no longer in the sky, and is there an opportunity to take advantage of it?

This decision of the Son of Yongzhi seems to have added a fire to the already boiling court. One stone stirs up a thousand waves! The whirlpool of undercurrents in the court is constantly expanding.

On the tenth day of October, Song Pu, the secretary of the ministry, secretly met Prince Shun. What was talked about is unknown.

…

…

Jia Huan was aware of the changes in the political situation, but he didn't bother to pay much attention to it. The level of struggle was too high, and he didn't pay attention to it. How did he get involved in the struggle between the scholar and the scholar?

It can be said that there is no time for peace in the land of court. The difference is only in the length of time there is a temporary calm. The struggle is eternal. The balance is temporary.

Late at night on the sixth day of October, Jia Huan went to He Mansion to meet Scholar He, and the news in Dongchao's room naturally couldn't hide from him.

After that, Jia Huan's attention was thinking about how to get the imperial court to agree to add the Wenxuan Yuan to manage Pravda. To add the Wenxuan Academy, it is naturally best to have him as the main official. However, this matter is not easy.

If he wants to grasp the dominance of the four major families, he must come to the forefront, erect a banner, and compete with the Wang family. His official position cannot be higher than that of the prince. But the advantage is that Wang Ziteng is not in Beijing. This opens up endless possibilities for him to compete for dominance.

In the afternoon of this day, when Jia Huan was discussing with Pang Ze, Luo Junzi, and Qiao Rusong at home, the little guy outside came to report: Yushi Zhu Hongfei came to visit.

Jia Huan invited him in and served tea again, Zhu Hongfei couldn't wait to say: "Brother Jia, there is a royal history in the Imperial Court that is being connected, and I want to impeach you for holding the Pravda and blocking the way of speech." ”

Pang Ze was furious when he heard this, and slapped the table and said angrily: "What do you mean by blocking the way of speech? Which of our copies of the Imperial History was seized and not published in Pravda? If you want to add sin, there is no excuse. Who's behind it? ”

Pang Ze's level is extremely high, and he goes straight to the core of the problem.

Zhu Hongfei couldn't answer this question. The series of royal history, playing the flag, who will say who is behind it?

Jia Huan groaned and said, "Shiyuan, don't be angry yet. This is a bit strange! ”

At this time, it was reported from outside that the Jinshi of the same department, a native of Huating, and Tang Daobin, the head of the household department, came to visit. Jia Huan's subject, there was no museum selection, and Tang Daobin ranked among the top two in the second class, but he had to serve in the sixth department. Jia Huan went out and entertained Tang Daobin in the main hall in the front yard, "Brother Yuan Zheng, how did you come to visit today?" ”

Tang Daobin waved his hand, didn't drink the tea, and said urgently: "Brother Jia, I have been in the household department recently, and I heard some discussions about you. Is there such a thing as taking a concubine during the state funeral? ”

Jia Huan smiled bitterly and explained: "There are rumors outside. Brother Tang didn't know what was going on, it was my cousin who did it. "He didn't have a brain pump, how could he take a concubine during the state funeral? The documents for the concubines written to Xiangling, Qingwen and others a few days ago are not within the national mourning period.

Tang Daobin breathed a sigh of relief, in their Yimao family, the champion Weng Zongdao was a righteous man and a gentleman, admonishing the Son of Heaven, and was demoted to Yungui. The example is cautious and misconducted. He didn't want to be along. In the same year, Jia Ziyu was left with the highest official position. It would be a shame to make such a low-level mistake.

Tang Daobin reminded: "I'm afraid someone has already played the chapter." You have to pay attention. "Not every piece of the General Administration's recital will be given to Pravda. Pravda sent someone to transcribe most, not all.

Tang Daobin said again: "In addition, I went to other yamen to do business, and I heard some rumors. It is said that the Yunxuan you built by the south lake in the outer city is extremely luxurious, hiding dirt and dirt. colluded with the powerful and amassed countless riches. ”

Jia Huan was a little surprised and refuted: "It's nonsense. Picking up the star building, Yunxuan is just an auction and a hall business, how can it be called a dirty store? If there is anything lawless in it, it will be subject to the law of the land. ”

Tang Daobin smiled helplessly and said, "I just trust Brother Jia." But where are the three law divisions, they may not be willing to believe it. I'm afraid you have to prepare early. ”

At this time, the little guy outside came to report again, a friend from the same department, and the criminal department gave Jiangxi Yongfeng Fan Xijue a visit. Jia Huan was surprised and invited Fan Xijue in. Fan Xijue had a sharp mouth and a prominent image, and when he saw Tang Daobin there, he was slightly surprised.

After the three of them greeted each other, they exchanged a few words of greeting, and then Fan Xijue said: "Ziyu, I am in the department, and I heard people talking about it, saying that you flattered Shangguan, excluded Xiao Kaizhi, and controlled the truth." I'm afraid that someone will be in the book soon. ”

In the six sections, the department is the official. This is to prepare to scold Jia Huan's character. There are many kinds of scolding officials: economic problems, style problems, character problems, and so on.

If Jia Huan still doesn't understand what the problem is, then his IQ is worrisome.

The appearance of Pravda and the Great Sunday Daily, which was funded by the king of Chu in the outer city of Dongjingyuan, greatly reduced the spread of rumors in Beijing. But compression is not the same as annihilation. Rumors, there is still a market for roadside clubs. For example, if officials are tandem and discussed, the newspaper can't control it.

Rumors are not a problem. For example, who hasn't had a temple boss? But in a short period of time, there is a lot of smear rhetoric, and it can be heard everywhere, which is very abnormal. This shows that someone behind the scenes is deliberately fueling the trouble.

Throw plenty of dirt and some will be sure to stick!

Even though Jia Huan has the weapon of public opinion - the newspaper -- he has to take it seriously. Jia Huan got up, bowed his hand, and said, "Thank you two brothers for informing me." I know. ”

Tang Daobin and Fan Xijue saw that Jia Huan was cautious, so they didn't say anything more and left. Jia Huan pondered while returning to the small courtyard where Pang, Luo, Qiao, and Zhu were located, and explained the situation.

Luo Junzi said with a solemn face: "Ziyu, it's menacing!" ”

Jia Huan laughed.

He was originally a bystander, but in the end he was involved in the turmoil of this court dispute. While he enjoyed the "convenience" brought by the Fellowship, he also had to take the "risk". No court will point the finger at the university scholars at the beginning.

He, one of the three cadres of He University, seems to be the weakest link. He's got his eyes on him.

…

…

On October 14, the impeachment of Jia Huan was in full swing.
