Chapter 126: Choosing a Bad Out-of-State

The bright moon rises, all kinds of lanterns hang all over the streets and alleys, and the entire Kaifeng City is shrouded in a dreamlike blur.

Xu Ping rode slowly along the street, and was infected by the people who were watching the lights along the street like a tide, and his mood slowly brightened.

Since I returned to the capital last year, I have felt all kinds of discomfort, and after such an incident today, I suddenly figured it out. People live in this world, where can everything go smoothly? I don't dare to do anything, there are always all kinds of troubles to find myself, unless I don't come into contact with the world, it's always inevitable.

Don't be afraid of troubles, just deal with them head-on. Tiredness is not that things make people tired, but that the mind that suffers from gains and losses makes people feel tired. I have been a human being for two lives, and I want to be prosperous and rich in this world, as long as I am confident and bold to do it, I am worried about this and afraid of that, and I have all kinds of careful thoughts, and I am tired of myself in vain, and there is nothing to do.

After returning home and instructing Li Jing on poetry before the provincial exam, Xu Ping returned to his study, spread out the paper, and picked up a pen to write a letter.

It was given to the third class of the courtyard, and it was handed directly to Li Ruogu of the third class of the third class. Xu Ping wrote about Zhang Xinyi's actions in the past two days, and introduced Duan Yunjie's life experience and Duan Fang's life, and clearly asked the third class to send Zhang Xinyi to Yuanzhou, so as not to cause any more scandals and be unable to clean up.

Xu Ping figured it out, his relationship with Duan Yunjie is a little unclear, and there are many people who know it. It's better to simply pick it out yourself, and stand up for Duan Yunjie in the name of protecting your old subordinates, if you want to use this matter to attack yourself, just let the horse come.

In the six years of Yongzhou, the sugar cane business has created countless wealth, and it has made great contributions, but can it not even protect the daughter of an old subordinate?

The eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the first early dynasty after the Shangyuan Festival.

Lu Yijian, who was the first to come out of the case, implicated Zhang Shixun, the prime minister of the current dynasty, and Yang Chongxun, the envoy of the Xuanhui Southern Court, because of the case of exchanging tea for goods, and proposed to punish the two.

Zhang Shixun defended himself that the killing of the Jiaoyin shop was done by the officials in the house, although his name was hung in the shop, he did not know it. He also proposed that "Deng" record all the finances of the introduction shop into the official, and he didn't even take any capital.

What is the relationship between Zhang Shixun and Lu Yijian? Lu Yijian got the pleadings, and Zhang Shixun got the news that night, and he had already thought of countermeasures in the past two days. It's a big thing, anyway, it's pushed to the top of the royal family's laxity.

At this time, Yang Chongxun was not powerful, he only knew that there was an accident in the shop under his name, but when he was questioned, everyone had already been detained by Kaifeng, and he had no source at all, so he was caught off guard.

The final result was that Zhang Shixun seized an official, and the emperor issued an edict to strictly manage his family and servants in the future.

Yang Chongxun's treatment was much more serious, and he was demoted from the festival degree to the festival degree observation and stay, and then went out to Chenzhou. Because he had another trouble at this time, Zhou Huaizheng's family, who died because of his whistleblowing in Zhenzong's later years, was wronged and punished for both crimes.

Back then, Kou Zhun and Zhou Huaizheng discussed the establishment of the crown prince, that is, the current emperor Zhao Zhen, and Feng Zhenzong as the emperor. Because of Yang Chongxun's whistleblowing, Kou Zhun was demoted, Zhou Huaizheng died, and Empress Dowager Liu listened to the government. Empress Dowager Liu has been in power for ten years, and Zhao Zhen is obviously not having a good time, but now Kou Zhun and Zhou Huaizheng are loyal ministers, and Yang Chongxun has become a whistleblower.

Lu Yijian only reported what had happened, and the result was discussed when he sat down again in the afternoon hall, so there was no quarrel during the meeting. When the results of the treatment came down, the imperial historian blew up the pot, thinking that the punishment for Zhang Shixun was too light, and made an appointment to fight in the court the next day.

Li Ruogu is already over seventy years old, his body is not forgiving, and his ears have always been sick.

The little official in the back line brought tea, and Li Ruogu took a break and drank tea, which was considered to be in good spirits.

At this time, the hook officer took a document and put it on the desk and reported to Li Ruogu: "Xu Ping, the deputy envoy of the third division of salt and iron, moved here, saying that Zhang Xinyi, the official of the eastern head, was harassing the people's daughters and asked our courtyard to send him to the remote state army. ”

"Zhang Xinyi? Isn't it Zhang Servant who is in the family? ”

Zhang Qi's sons are all ranked by the third word "one", such as Zhang Shuye, the son of Zhang Liyi, who was well-known in later generations, still relied on Zhang Qi's ancestral shadow to enter the office, and was a famous minister at the turn of the two Song Dynasty. Li Ruogu has been in officialdom for decades, so he naturally knows it.

The hook officer said: "It is the Zhang family's little ya-nai." ”

Li Ruogu responded with an "oh", and then asked: "That folk girl also has some background, otherwise Xu Ping, a deputy envoy of the third division, would take care of these things?" ”

What the bachelor said is that the girl was born in a family of eunuchs, and her father was the former magistrate of Taiping County, Yongzhou, and unfortunately died of illness when she came to the capital to report on her work. Last year, Yongzhou broke the Jiaozhi Xugong, and this person was also posthumously awarded an official position. This magistrate made a lot of contributions to his subordinates when he served as Deputy Envoy Xu Yongzhou, so he took care of his descendants. ”

Li Ruogu nodded and did not speak.

Zhang Xinyi, a third-class envoy from a rich and noble family, because he thought that the errand officials were small and the affairs were trivial, many people did not choose them, and they were idle at home. At this time, the Que out of the third class court was also publicized, allowing the envoys to choose the right one by themselves, which was called shooting shortage. Many of these officials don't even do the prison officials in the capital, and those in other counties don't even look at it.

It is indeed inappropriate to harass the eunuchs, but if you really follow Xu Ping's suggestion and kick Zhang Xinyi to a place where birds don't, then you will offend the Zhang family. Although Zhang Qi is now out of power, he is still the prince of Jianjie, and it is difficult to say when he will turn over and rise again. Although Li Ruogu was not afraid of him, there was no reason to offend him for nothing.

After thinking about it, Li Ruogu said to the hook officer: "You write a book, write it to the middle book, and see what it says there." ”

The three classes of the academy are independent from the Xuanhui Academy, although the three classes of envoys in charge are military ranks, but they are subordinate to the Zhongshu Gate. Li Ruogu didn't take over this kind of thing that didn't conform to the norm, and pushed it to the ministers in the political hall.

There were very few public officials in the courtyard of the third class, less than twenty people, and this kind of official correspondence was originally very time-consuming, but as a result, several big holidays were released after the year, and at this time it happened to be free, and the official documents were sent to the government hall in the afternoon of the same day.

Seeing this official letter, I remembered that Xu Ping had helped his uncle Zhang Shi a lot when he was in Yongzhou, and at that time he also had a contradiction with Zhang Qi, who was the envoy of the Privy Council at the time, without saying a word, he approved the word "can" on it, used the seal of the political affairs hall, and ordered the official to send it back to the third class courtyard.

With Zaizhi's approval, what else is Li Ruogu polite? After checking the books and finding a shortage suitable for the little envoy, he immediately sent the Lianshui Army on the East China Sea to supervise the salt tax, and he was limited to two months to take office. (To be continued.) )
