Chapter 765: Reluctantly Compromised
Bai Shizhong also understood that it was probably unrealistic to severely punish Li Yanqing, so he had to change the title of Li Yanqing and leave him in the capital as Sun Fu said.
After all, Bai Shizhong has been immersed in officialdom for decades, and as soon as he thought about it, he had an epiphany about the meaning of the official family to let him express his position, He Li once mentioned that Li Yanqing should take over the position of Gao Shen and be in charge of the Privy Council, Zhao Huan obviously didn't want to give this position to Li Yanqing, so he let himself come out.
Thinking about this, Bai Shizhong felt comfortable for a while, it was not wrong for him to scold Li Yanqing, and the official family could keep it in mind!
"Your Majesty, since there is a clear provision in the agreement with the Jin people that Li Yanqing cannot be involved in the army, Wei Chen suggested that he be sealed as a secretary of the Ministry of Rites to completely block the mouth of the Jin people."
Bai Shizhong used the Jin man as an excuse to lightly beat Li Yanqing into the cold palace, and the Jinghu Xuanfu envoy had at least something to do, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was completely idle.
Zhao Huan nodded, and asked a few other ministers, "What about your opinions?" ”
Li Bangyan had already sensed Bai Shizhong's dissatisfaction with his silence just now, he hurriedly made amends, bowed down and said: "Bai Xiangguo is right, the Taiyuan negotiations are imminent, we can't get a little trick, and Weichen agrees to Bai Xiangguo's plan." ”
Immediately after Wu Min also expressed his approval, He Li and Sun Fu exchanged a look, where is Bai Shizhong's opinion, it is clearly the official's own idea, at this time they don't want the official family to come to the stage, He Li said no objection, Sun Fu also bowed down and said: "Weichen has no opinion!" ”
"Alright! Since the Zhizheng Hall has passed, it is so decided, cancel Li Yanqing's school inspection of Dr. Shi and the Xuanfu envoy of Jinghu, and change the title to the Ministry of Rites, He Xiangguo, Sun Xiangguo, and the current chaos will be handed over to the two of you to deal with. ”
After speaking, he turned around and left, and the officials also retreated, only He Li, Sun Fu and more than a dozen of their subordinate officials were left upstairs in Xuande, the two looked at each other, and actually handed over this mess to them, why didn't they let Bai Shizhong deal with it?
Sun Fu smiled bitterly and said, "Since the official family can afford us, let's make it difficult!" Li Yanqing, I'll go and say, you can persuade the students here, how about it? ”
This plan is quite reasonable, and the few times he dealt with Li Yanqing was Sun Fu, and He Li often went to Taixue to lecture on the current situation, and he was quite prestigious among Taixue, so it was more appropriate for him to persuade Taixue. The two of them each took someone downstairs.
At this time, there were nearly 300,000 people gathered on the royal street, and the mile-long royal street was crowded, and Sun Fu could not pass through the royal street at all, so he had to make a detour from the Baokang Gate east of the Suzaku Gate out of the inner city, and then enter through the Suzaku Gate, so that he found Li Yanqing.
"Li Dutong!" Sun Fu waved desperately to Li Yanqing's carriage.
Although Li Yanqing is no longer the capital commander, the Xuanfu envoy he appointed only yesterday has also been canceled, and the new post of the Ministry of Rites has not yet been officially implemented, of course, Li Yanqing is still the crown prince Shaobao, and it is okay to call Li Shaobao, but this title is estimated to be called no one yet, thinking about it, it is more convenient to call Li Dutong.
Li Yanqing was trapped in the carriage and couldn't retreat, and the people didn't have the excitement at the beginning, but even if he didn't let him go, Li Yanqing had no choice but to sit in the carriage and wait patiently for the court to solve the matter.
At this time, Zhang Hu was riding on a horse and saw Sun Fu at a glance, and he hurriedly said to Li Yanqing: "Qi Yu is the capital, Sun Xianggong is outside!" ”
The person who solved the problem finally came, Li Yanqing hurriedly opened the car door, but as soon as he opened the door, the people around him immediately cheered and shouted, "Li is not allowed to go!" ”
The crowd was excited, the sound was deafening, Li Yanqing had no choice but to point to Sun Fu at the head of the city and ask him to go to the city to say, Sun Fu understood, and quickly turned around and went to the city.
"Give me a drum!"
Sun Fu gave an order, and the soldiers beat the big drum at the head of the city, 'Knock! Boom! Boom! Boom! ’
The sound of drums shook the inside and outside of the city gate, and the people in the city gradually quieted down, and Sun Fu shouted loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers, I am Sun Fu of Xiangguo, entrusted by the Son of Heaven to give you an explanation!" ”
The drumming also stopped, and the tens of thousands of people in the city were silent, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen to Sun Fu's explanation.
"The Son of Heaven has revoked Li Dutong's transfer and appointed him as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, staying in the capital ......."
When the first sentence came out, a deafening cheer rang out from the city, and when the last sentence was spoken, the earth-shattering cheers had already resounded throughout the entire royal street, and the Son of Heaven finally compromised and they won.
Many people have long been exhausted, when the news of the victory came out, there began to be a lot of people retreating one after another, the first to retreat was the tens of thousands of people who surrounded Li Yanqing's carriage, they got the most accurate news, people have three urgency, surrounded for nearly half a day, not in a hurry but also in a hurry, at the same time, thousands of students in the Xuande Building in the north got He Li's guarantee, and also began to retreat.
As the flow of people loosened, Sun Fu finally squeezed in front of Li Yanqing's carriage, the weather was still cold, but he was sweating profusely, and said to Li Yanqing with a wry smile: "Li Shaobao, you are singing too much in this scene." ”
"Sun Xianggong misunderstood, this is not my intention!"
Li Yanqing shook his head, "Since last night, there have been thousands of people surrounding the military office, and I was still discovered when I set off from Caofu, and the people are in danger, so why not?" ”
"Li Shaobao is right, if Wang Hao and Cai Jingzhi go out of the city, I'm afraid that the only thing to see them off is rotten eggs and stones."
Li Yanqing smiled and asked, "What official position did Sun Xianggong say just now that I was renamed?" The voices were boiling, and I didn't hear clearly. ”
"Change the title of the Ministry of Rites."
"Needless to say, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites must have been suggested by Bai Xiangguo!"
Li Yanqing's official rank is the third grade of the Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor, which was sealed when he was reappointed as the Tokyo Defense Envoy, and has not changed, but his official position is the second rank of the prince Shaobao, and he has added the title of the school inspector Yu Shi Dafu, both of which are fictitious positions, used to represent status, and have no practical significance, while the real power of the rebuke official is the Jinghu Lianglu Xuanfu Envoy, in fact, he is the minister of the Qincha, inspecting the Jinghu Lianglu, adding the title of the imperial Shi Dafu, and he has the right of impeachment.
Now he has been renamed the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and like the prince Shaobao, he is also a pension official, which is actually depriving him of a real right to retire at home.
Sun Fu was a little embarrassed, so he had to reluctantly say: "I can only grieve Li Shaobao in extraordinary times, and after the Jin soldiers retreat north, the official family will definitely be reused, Li Shaobao will have a good rest for a while!" ”
Li Yanqing nodded, "I live in Cao Mansion, if there is anything, Sun Xianggong can come to Cao Mansion to find me, and leave first!" ”
Li Yanqing immediately ordered the carriage to turn around, and more than 100 personal soldiers escorted the carriage to the direction of Caofu, and Sun Fu saw him go away, only then did he breathe a long sigh of relief, and the matter was finally resolved.
........
Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the capital, in the following days, the whole capital was talking about this matter, this is actually a collective vent of the people of the capital after a long time trapped in the war, but the consequences it caused are very far-reaching, it is not a good thing for the imperial court, and even in the next hundred years, hundreds of thousands of people often erupt in the collective plea of the party, tracing back to the source, are all due to today's assembly.
Li Yanqing returned to Cao's Mansion and closed the gate, and nothing outside had anything to do with him.
Cao's Mansion is huge, covering an area of 500 acres, and it took a full year for Cao's Mansion to be emptied, leaving only hundreds of courtyard houses that could not be moved, guarded by a distant Cao clan and several domestic servants who did not go south.
More than 100 of Li Yanqing's relatives also lived in Cao's mansion, which made Cao's mansion somewhat popular, while Li Yanqing lived in the courtyard of his father-in-law's family in the past, and of course he lived in the embroidery building of his wife Cao Yun's former home, which was also where the husband and wife went back to their parents' house.
The first floor is Cao Yun's study, most of the bookshelves are empty, only one shelf is placed with more than 100 books that Li Yanqing carries, night falls, two light up the room, the light is very soft, Li Yanqing sat behind the wide desk, his finger joints gently tapped the table, quietly listening to Mo Jun's analysis on the side.
"Dutong's strategy of retreating this time is very rational and clever, but I think Dutong still has points to lose in terms of details."
"You mean me leaving the capital?" Li Yanqing smiled faintly.
Mo Jun nodded slightly, "Jingxiang is a long way away, one comes and goes for at least a month, the Jin soldiers go south for only a few days, how can Dutong want to return again, and at that time, the information between the DPRK and China is not connected, and the connections are lost, even if I rush back in time, there is no way to start, so I stick to my opinion, Dutong can resign, but must not leave the capital." ”
"Even if you have a point, but today ...... Isn't that a bit too much? ”
