Chapter 29: Looking Back at the Sky (8)

[I'm sorry for today's update.] 】

Wang Shao is leaving.

When Han Gang returned to the post station, Wang Shao had also returned, his small courtyard was brightly lit, and his entourage was tidying up.

"Fang has already made it clear to the official family, and tomorrow morning, he will go to the palace to resign." Wang Shao said.

The so-called Majesty's resignation is the rule that when the court official leaves the court and goes out to serve as an official, the palace bids farewell to the emperor. However, compared to the temporary summoning of Wang Shao by the Son of Heaven tonight, the speech of His Majesty tomorrow morning is just a formality. But the rules are the rules, and when the court officials leave Beijing, they have to go through this under normal circumstances.

Wang Shao asked Han Gang to bring decanting soup, sat down together, and pointed to the busy entourage, "Tomorrow they will also get up early and wait outside the Xuande Gate." After I leave the palace, I will leave the city directly and return to the Tongyuan Army [Gu Wei]. ”

"In such a hurry?!"

"I've been in the capital for too long. Although there should be no change in the people of Hehuang recently, it is not a good thing to leave the Tongyuan army for too long. ”

Speaking of which, Wang Shao has been in the capital for more than a month, and if it weren't for the Son of Heaven to keep people, he would have left a long time ago. The two brothers, Yu Longke, who came to the capital with Wang Shao, Blind Yao, who has now been renamed Bao Shun and Bao Yue, and Zhang Xiang'er, returned to Qinzhou before Han Gang arrived.

The longer Wang Shao stays in the capital, the more in-depth Gao Zunyu in the ancient Wei village will be able to control the internal and external affairs of the village, and Miao Zhu, who is the leader of the army in the border pacification division, is Gao Zunyu's person. When Wang Shao and Han Gang were not there, how could they compete with Gao Zunyu with only one Wang Hou.

"And I'm also worried that the battle in Yokoyama will affect the Hehuang side. I thought about it every night, and my head hurt. You still have to see it in person. ”

Wang Shao frowned bitterly, rubbing his temples vigorously with both hands, looking like he did have a headache.

Han Gang also knew that with the current situation, Wang Shao would definitely have a headache.

Hehuang and Yokoyama are the main strategic directions of Kansai, and the two sides are naturally inextricably linked. From Wang Shao's heart, he definitely didn't want to see Han Jiang and Chong Chunfeng proud.

What is Tuobian Hehuang, is 'the right arm of the thief in the west'! From the side to contain the Western Xia army. And Hengshan is the heart of the party members. Capturing Luo Wu and controlling Hengshan is a sword piercing the heart. Once Han Jiang succeeds, the Western Xia Kingdom will die, and there is no need for Wang Shao's mission west of Qinzhou to continue, is it meaningful to cut people to death? No matter how many great victories there are in Hehuang, they can't match the significance of occupying Luowu City.

But Wang Shao didn't want to say the words of 'good wishes and good songs'. He may wish that Han Jiang rode a bad horse with a crooked neck and plunged into the Wuding River to drown, but he also didn't want to see the fiasco of losing troops and losing generalsβ€”at that time, the western thieves were strong, and the pressure on the Hehuang side would also be great.

Wang Shao is actually in a dilemma, and he is not in the mood to think about Han Gang's upcoming work.

"Today, when I entered the palace to face the saint, the official family mentioned Yukun several times, and I wanted to see you in and out of my words." Wang Shao recalled the situation when he saw Zhao Ji tonight, and the young Son of Heaven attached great importance to Han Gang, which really surprised him. Wang Shao felt sorry for Han Gang's failure to go to the palace: "If it weren't for Feng Dangshi blocking him in the middle, Yukun, you were able to enter the palace this time, maybe you would be able to change your official order." ”

"This is the time and fate, and we can only wait for the next time."

Han Gang sighed and smiled seemingly open-mindedly. But there was no grumbling in his heart, 'What's the use of talking about this now?' ’

Changing from an elector to a Beijing official and leaving the sea is a beautiful thing that every low-level civil official dreams of, how can Han Gang be an exception? As long as you see the Son of Heaven, you will always be rewarded. Han Gang's merits have been accumulated to the point that he is only one step away from becoming an official, and the Son of Heaven is gracious, and the transfer of officials should be a certainty.

It's just that since Zhenzong, the successive emperors of the Great Song Dynasty have been concerned about the reputation of future generations and don't want to fight in the ring with Zaizhi. And decades of leniency and politics have continued, and civil officials have fewer scruples. In order to show his integrity, a group of Zaifu can make trouble for a small thing as big as a sesame seed, and the son of heaven can't get off the stage.

If it was for the sake of the new law, it would be fine, but for the sake of Han Gang, and let Feng Jing make trouble, of course Zhao Ji was unwilling. If it makes the ruling party angry and makes trouble to the point of resigning and threatening, no matter who is right or wrong, the emperor loses.

These civil servants are spoiled! Feng Jing's words blocked his path of progress, but Han Gang hated him to the bone, "The world is reincarnated, retribution is unpleasant, and there will always be a day when this matter will pay off." ’

However, if Han Gang looks at this matter from the perspective of a minister, Feng Jing is actually not wrong, and it is also the duty of the minister to maintain the rules of the government and the opposition, so that the Son of Heaven cannot act arbitrarily.

In fact, Han Gang always believed that there was no harm in the emperor being weak. If you can turn the Son of Heaven into the decorative murals of Britain, Japan and other countries in later generations, or just like the Emperor of the East at this time, when he becomes the prime minister, he will be much happier.

As a courtier, Han Gang certainly hopes that the more honest the Son of Heaven is, the better. But if it were him Han Gang was the emperor, not to mention the power ministers of the run, he would not be able to tolerate it, even the ministers of the ordinary party, he would pull one faction to fight the other, so that both sides could be honestly obedient and taught. This is called the difference in the place where the butt sits, and the point of view is also different.

"That's right, Yukun." Wang Shao didn't know that Han Gang's stomach was now full of rebellious thoughts, and seeing that Han Gang suddenly fell silent, thinking that it had touched his current mood, he changed the topic as if comfortingly, and smiled: "Your romantic name has spread to the palace, let the Oiran keep the festival for you, not waiting for idlers to do it." And Zhou Nan got out of the mud without staining, which can be regarded as commendable. ”

When he was married to Wang Shao's niece, hooking up with a famous prostitute was indeed a little unreasonable. But now I can't see any anger on Wang Shao. And Han Gang was also surprised that the matter between him and Zhou Nan had reached the ears of the Son of Heaven.

"It's the Imperial City Division?!"

Speaking of the news of the Son of Heaven, among the hundred divisions in the capital, only the Imperial City Division is responsible for one aspect of the task.

"Don't think too much, the Imperial City Division can't find out everything." Wang Shao mistakenly thought that Han Gang was the kind of scholar who hated the words of the Son of Heaven to investigate his subjects, and helped the Son of Heaven Zhao Ji explain: "It's just that the matter between you and Zhou Nan, Yukun, has spread a little wider, so it has reached the ears of the official family. Tonight I said it as a joke, and I didn't blame you. ”

'Blame? Who's to blame for this? ’

Han Gang and Zhou Nan did not reach out to chaos and did not violate laws and regulations. And attracting the hearts of famous prostitutes, and even keeping festivals for them, is just a small affair, and the Son of Heaven will not spoil the scenery.

If you are in the face of the saint, say that you want to take credit for others, please ask the Son of Heaven to release Zhou Nan. With the character of today's son Zhao Ji, when it is a person, it is also a gift, and the credit is still given, and it is good to achieve a good story, just like Emperor Tang Ming, who made a fate for the palace people. It's like now, it's not up or down.

'It's a pity. Han Gang thought.

The next day, Wang Shao was sent away ten miles out of the city, and Han Gang and Li Xin returned to the post house.

When Wang Shao left, Han Gang felt a lot quieter. What he has to do now, in addition to Zhou Nan's affairs, is to wait for the transferred Lingwen to be handed to him.

"There should be a few more days." Han Gang whispered to himself.

If it is to appease the division at the edge of the edge and go through the procedures for a transfer, unless someone is watching and urging from beginning to end, it will take two days to go through the process. And with the complicated affairs under the Chinese book, it is usually idle to be transferred for ten days and half a month. Even if Yanzhou is in a hurry to ask for someone, and it is only a part-time temporary appointment, without going through Liunequan, Han Gang estimates that it will take three or five days.

Two days later, Li Xin was going to test the palace court, but he was in the third class courtyard, from several officers from the Beijing camp who also participated in the test shooting of the palace, and he was a little angry, and he was in a bad mood. There are already many fewer words. He didn't go out to contact the officials in the third class courtyard who could make Shangli, but stayed in the post house and practiced martial arts.

Han Gang couldn't help but sigh for Li Xin, unless he had been taking care of him, it would be difficult for him to be promoted for the rest of his life, but it was a pity that Li Xin had good martial arts and good art of war.

Li Xin couldn't handle interpersonal relationships by himself, and Han Gang could only come forward to help his cousin. First take Li Xin out of the city to take a turn, and by the way, go to Zhou Nan to see if you can find out any news - the intelligence network of the official prostitutes is sometimes even more powerful than the Imperial City Division.

Regarding the ransom of Zhou Nan's escape, Han Gang will not pin all his hopes on others. Cai does not have insurance alone, and Zhang Dian has to pay a few percent less if he gets a package ticket. With Han Gang's habits, the necessary work is naturally two-pronged. Li Xin was not invited to a banquet yesterday, and it was inconvenient for Han Gang to bring him, but today, it didn't hurt to see his own family.

But Han Gang was about to make a move, and the guests came.

Han Gang's identity is different, and it is impossible to meet people casually. The post man brought a message from a guest to Han Gang, saying that he was sent by the Teaching Workshop Division outside the post station.

It shouldn't be Zhou Nan's servant, otherwise a letter is enough.

Han Gang was not surprised by this. The relationship between Zhou Nan and himself, the Son of Heaven has heard about it, and it has long been spread in the city of Tokyo. In this case, if the Workshop Division has not reacted, it is an idiot. It's time for the situation to come.

Han Gang didn't call anyone over, but went directly to the hall outside, where a thin middle-aged man was waiting.

First found an empty seat and sat down, and several officials around him came over to greet him, and Han Gang returned the salute one by one very modestly, without any arrogance. After sitting down, he asked Li Xiaoliu to summon the thin man over and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"Villain Gan Mu, this time I came here for Little Lady Zhou." The middle-aged man bowed in front of Han Gang, but his tone was not at all peaceful, "The villain has been ordered this time, and I ask the officials not to come to Zhou Xiaoniang again!" ”
