Chapter 40: The New Era of Everything (8)

[The third watch, continue to ask for a monthly pass.] There are already a lot of catch-ups, only twenty votes short. But our goal is to transcend the past and not let our month's efforts come to naught. 】

Cheng Hao gave a bachelor's degree in Hanlin and lectured with Wang Anshi and Han Gang.

The next few days were calm. How many courtiers looked up to the sky and sighed, and finally stopped for a while.

How long has it been since the imperial court has been so peaceful?

Since the onset of the Emperor Taishang on the winter solstice last year, the big and small things in the court have not been interrupted, and there is no day that is safe.

First, the old and new party struggles that lasted for more than ten years finally divided the winners and losers under Sima Guang's faint words. Immediately after that, the entry of the northern captives was followed.

finally repelled the Liao thieves, and got a satisfactory peace agreement, and several schools that taught the Son of Heaven here fought again.

Wang Anshi insisted on not letting his son-in-law return to Beijing, and he couldn't compare to Han Gang, who was even more daring.

Han Gang returned to Beijing and lectured on the Zishan Hall for the first time, and then the second illness in the palace of the Emperor Taishang, and then he was in meditation.

Now that the emperor can finally go to the palace, there is the empress dowager who is firmly in charge of the government, and there is also Goryeo to contain the Liao State outside.

Both inside and outside, speaking of which, I can really live a stable life for a while.

After all, people who are born with disorderly morality are a minority, and those who like stability still account for the majority, and don't officials pay attention to enjoying wealth and prosperity? Every day, I watched the wind and waves in the court, rolling over and over wave after wave, and accidentally falling on my own head, who would want to do such an official?

It's still the best day in peace, and with the newly issued rewards, how many officials have entered the restaurant.

'Peace is also peaceful, and entertaining, don't hesitate to fall the gold bottle. ’

In the restaurant, the sound of music comes and goes, as if celebrating the arrival of peaceful time.

Late at night, Cai Jing was checking his recital for the third time under the lamp.

Every word must be perfect, and no flaws can be left behind.

The window was open, the cool night breeze blew in, the books piled on the table rattled, and Cai Jing picked up a piece of green jade paper and pressed it on it.

The light in the glass lampshade is calm and steady, and does not shake due to gusts of wind. There is a curved copper pipe hanging down above the lampshade, which leads to the water inside the lamp holder, and after washing, the smoke emitted by the oil lamp is free of the annoying smell of oil smoke.

Now it's summer, I don't think it's winter, the doors and windows are closed, and the oil lamp burns with a choking smell of oily smoke, which makes people not want to read in the room for a moment.

The changes are really amazing, every time Cai Jing sees the delicate glass lamps on the table, he will think of the government-run glass workshop that is now working hard every day. In the past, the utensils produced in the official workshop would only be used for the upper hand, and those that did not meet the standards would be discarded and destroyed immediately. Just like the porcelain produced in the official kiln. Only a small number of them will be transported out of Miyagi as gifts.

But now, more and more palace-like utensils, after removing the taboo patterns, are taken out and sold on the market. The glass lamp on Cai Jing's table is estimated to have a chance to be rewarded only when he becomes a waiter, but now, twenty-eight yuan can be bought. Although it is very expensive, it used to be impossible to buy with money.

Even seven or eight years ago, I would never have imagined that this would be the case today

The night outside was like ink, the wind was gusting, with a strong sense of water, and it looked like it was about to rain.

I don't know how Zhao Zhengfu and Qiang Yinji wrote their concerts. Are you waiting for the next time to check the mistakes and omissions in the words over and over again?

Cai Jing put away the original manuscript and the original, and did not plan to check it for the fourth time. No matter how nervous you are now, tomorrow, it's time to officially play. If you can't get a good night's sleep, you can't replenish your energy. Tomorrow in the temple, as long as the mind is slightly dizzy, someone will seize the opportunity to fight back, once the formation is disrupted, want to return to the correct rhythm, but who will give another chance?

Of course, without a certain certainty, Cai Jing would not have chosen such drastic means.

Cui Taifu, the secretary of Dali Temple, was sentenced to accept bribes and violate the law, and several cases that were changed because he bent the law for personal gain are now in the hands of Zhao Tingzhi.

Han Jinqing has worked hard to collect so much incriminating evidence, and Cai Jing is not surprised by this.

In other words, if there is a person who lacks ability and qualifications is not higher than his own for more than ten years, he will also try his best to find his handle, and then find an opportunity to throw him out and overturn him.

Even though Cui Taifu's backing is very hard, the evidence is conclusive, even Queen Taishang will not protect him as a backstage.

Similarly, there is no crisis on the head, and Cai Jing is unwilling to choose such a tough approach.

The wind direction in the capital is getting more and more wrong, and the seemingly calm situation seems to be brewing a tide. He went to Cai Qu's house several times during this time, and he felt that something was awkward.

Cai Jing trusts his instincts and knows that his relationship with Cai Qu is not reliable.

Even if he is exempt from his relatives, as long as Cai is in Dongfu for a day, he will not want to make any progress. If you want to be promoted again, either Cai Qu will leave, or you will be released.

And Cai did leave himself in Yushitai, which is equivalent to leaving a target to a political enemy. Any political enemy of Cai Qu found that he had a clan brother within five suits in Yushi Taizhong, and the first thing he did was to attack him Cai Jing, hoping that Cai Qu could be dragged out in the future.

If Cai really wants to compromise and does not intend to compromise, he will definitely throw himself out as a sacrifice. If you are going to compromise, you will still reach an agreement with them, and sacrifice yourself who is too conspicuous. Cai's statement that he does not form a party for personal gain allows him to continue to sit firmly in the position of prime minister.

Cai Jing didn't want to be Cai Qu's stepping stone, when the prime minister of the dynasty had already stepped on the bones of many opponents under his feet, he might be one of them in the future, but Cai Jing was never willing to give up. Opportunities are always reserved for those who don't admit defeat.

Rather than waiting for Cai Qu to kill his relatives in righteousness, it is better to jump out of the gang first and fight for a reputation. He is not afraid of the powerful, and he can kill his relatives with righteousness, leaving such an impression on people, and the name Cai Jing can be firmly engraved on the court. Such a result will definitely be a victory for Cai Jing for Cai Jing.

'Not upside down, not crazy, not famous. ’

Cai Jing encouraged himself to be motivated, which is the principle of the counselor.

After some lightning and thunder, the rain finally fell after a long time.

Speaking of which, it hasn't been a long time since the last rain, but in Cai Jing's mind, he always feels that during this time, the weather has been dry. When the water is poured on the ground, it will evaporate in the blink of an eye, and Mo Mingwei has the feeling of spending an unknown amount of time.

The plantain leaves outside the window rustled with the rain, and soon became louder with the rain.

The howling rain poured down from the sky like a river. Thunderbolts rang out one after another, and the flashes of light from time to time left traces in the bottom of the eyes, the former one had not yet recovered, and the latter began to appear.

Is this a sign that tomorrow's impeachment will only be revealed by heaven?

Cai Jing didn't close the window, and the companion who was guarding outside wanted to come over to help and drive him out. In the open window, the wind and rain kept rolling in, wetting the scrolls on the table, as well as a few pieces of manuscript paper. But Cai Jing still didn't move, looking at the night sky that lit up from time to time through the window, as if he was enjoying such a night.

Shock, the gentleman repairs the province with fear.

If someone doesn't know fear and doesn't know how to cultivate the province, Yushitai can just help him.

Cai Jing thought.

He counted them one by one, knocking down the objects he couldn't touch.

Fingers bent one by one, Cai Jing was sure that he could deal with everyone he wanted to deal with, he had been up and down in the Taiwan for several years, and then rose to the palace to serve the imperial history, who else could he not impeach?

But he froze suddenly.

One man couldn't move at all, and it was a little harder than a stone. No matter who bites it, without exception, they all have broken their teeth.

It was Han Gang, who had withdrawn from the two prefectures, who knew the way to advance and retreat, and his own talents and merits were so high that people were no longer able to be jealous.

Cai Jing was able to enter the Imperial History Terrace and enter the palace to serve the Imperial History, his experience in the Department of Health and Welfare, and the credit of the Liao State to live up to his mission, which is the biggest factor. But these two things are made because of people, and in the eyes of outsiders, they occupy a lot of Han Gang's light. If it weren't for that, he would just be an ordinary magistrate now. If you fight back, your reputation will become much worse.

Cai Jing stared at his fingers and didn't move for a long time, until another lightning bolt crossed the air, and the thunderstorm in the extreme distance came into his ears after a very short time, and the lights in the lamp also shook twice with the thunder, but immediately stabilized again.

The half-curved fingers finally bent down completely.

Han Gang couldn't move, but he couldn't move.

Don't think that everything can be calculated, and the answer will not change again, thinking that the roots are unshakable, and you can enjoy peace?

Cai Jing sneered, in "Nature", the big categories of mathematics, biology, physics, and chemistry are always placed at the front of the volume. Paying too much attention to arithmetic may be Han Gang's shortcoming.

If you don't have the courage to burn jade, you can only be mediocre for the rest of your life. If the future of the imperial court needs an opponent, as long as the Son of Heaven thinks of himself.

In order to deepen the memory of the Son of Heaven, the impression left must be deep and can be engraved in the heart all the time.

Isn't that the truth?!

……………………

"Official, but it's cold?" Yan Suxin put down the needle and thread in his hand and asked Han Gang who had just sneezed with concern.

"Nope." Han Gang rubbed his nose and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's nothing." ”

"It's nothing." Zhou Nan looked at the chessboard in front of him, pursed his lips and said, "Official, if you sneeze, the lost chess will be gone." ”

Han Gang laughed dryly, "It's not intentional to be a husband. As he spoke, he got up, "Oh, it's all at this time, do things!" Work! ”

Zhou Nan glared at Han Gang's back fiercely, eager to pick up the chess pieces and smash them over.

"The chess skills of the officials are really getting worse and worse, and even our women are bullied."

Han Gang turned a deaf ear, smiled and strode out.

It doesn't matter what chess is, isn't the key to playing chess to try your best not to lose?
