Under the cross-play argument, Yan Wen should be demoted to the jurisdiction of Qinzhou, and before leaving Beijing, it was changed to the jurisdiction of Yunzhou. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info At this time, Yan Wenying was still lucky, and he wrote to him that he was sick and wanted to stay in the capital. In the end, Fan Zhongyan gave Yan Wenying a fatal blow, he entrusted his funeral affairs to his eldest son, entered the palace to fight for his life, and Zhao Zhen finally agreed to exile Yan Wenying to Lingnan. Yan Shiliang, the son of Yan Wenying, was demoted together.

As an internal servant, as soon as he left the capital, without a backer, Yan Wenying was like a grasshopper after the autumn, and died on the road before he left Jingxi Road.

No one cares how Yan Wenying died on the road, this kind of criminal officer who has offended countless people, the escorted chamberlain will make things difficult everywhere. Lingnan is thousands of miles away, and few people are willing to really go there, let alone take good care of it, and it is likely that the food and drink will not be timely. In the past, there were demotion officials, and there were also people who guarded the door of the house without food and drink, and it was more common to deliberately put the food into a bad smell. Not to mention that when Kou Zhun and Li Di were demoted by Ding Wei, the prison attendants directly threatened, and if the two of them had not endured it, they would have been forced to death at that time.

The most important thing for officials is that Lu Yijian has since lost his most critical internal response in the palace, like a broken arm.

In the second half of the month, Fan Zhongyan, who resolutely demanded that Yan Wenying be severely punished, was promoted to a member of the Ministry of Rites, and the Tianzhang Pavilion was changed from the sentence of the Guozijian to the Quanzhi Kaifeng Mansion, and the political struggle in the capital opened a new page.

At this time, there were no secrets in the officialdom, and what came to Luoyang City with Fan Zhongyan's appointment was the gossip that Xu Ping heard. The reason why Fan Zhongyan knew about Kaifeng Mansion was because Lu Yijian felt that he was being forced too hard, so he deliberately found a complicated errand for Fan Zhongyan, so that he would not always put his mind on finding Lu Yijian in the future. Of course, Fan Zhongyan didn't appreciate it, and he still impeached Lu Yijian from time to time, and the political atmosphere in the capital was more tense than before.

Zhikaifeng Mansion is one of the "four heads" for Zaizhi, but Fan Zhongyan's qualifications are obviously not enough. His own official is a member of the Ministry of Rites, and he is 108,000 miles away from Xu Ping, and he used to be a state and county official, and he has neither the qualifications of a transfer envoy nor the qualifications to serve in an important yamen in the capital, so that he knows that Kaifeng Mansion is a little reluctant. The minimum qualification for the chief official of Kaifeng Mansion is to be a valet official or above the official or above in the two provinces of the official system, and Fan Zhongyan is just qualified to be in the Tianzhang Pavilion to be systematic.

It is precisely because of this that the officialdom has decided that this appointment is a small trick played by Lu Yijian.

Putting the newspaper on the table, Xu Ping leaned back in his chair and was quietly distracted.

According to the recent political situation, it is time for Lü Yijian and Wang Zeng to separate the winners and losers in the first round. Yan Wenying's accident is a signal, which gives great confidence to those who oppose Lu Yijian, and they will surely press Lu Yijian in the next few months. At this time, the Tai admonition has not yet converged, and Du Yan in the imperial history is stable and will not be directly mixed into the tide of pouring Lu. But Du Yan has always been close to Wang Zeng, and he appreciates Fan Zhongyan very much, and Yushitai is a force that cannot be underestimated. Although Gao Ruone and Yao Zhongsun of the Imperial Court charged forward in the incident of overthrowing Yan Wenying this time, it was out of their own duties, and the two did not have sharp contradictions with Lu Yijian.

The main force of Lu Yijian is still on Fan Zhongyan. The identity of Tianzhang Pavilion to be controlled cannot be underestimated, the energy is far greater than that of ordinary officials, and he knows that Kaifeng Mansion has the right to play alone, he is hard-hearted, and Lu Yijian will be very troublesome.

Sorting out the current personnel and comparing it with the limited historical knowledge of his previous life, Xu Ping finally shook his head helplessly. The final result should be Fan Zhongyan's failure. The span of time is here, isn't Ouyang Xiu's "Theory of Friends" coming out at this time? It's time for the court to start a big storm.

It is not surprising that Fan Zhongyan will fall, and his weight to bring down the prime minister is far from enough. But thinking about it, it seems that Lu Yijian can't be at ease in the court. Gu Ben was because of this, but Xu Ping couldn't remember it, so he could only wait with peace of mind.

Yang Xuan came in from outside and said to Xu Ping: "Du Cao, today the king of Henan Mansion will hold a banquet and invite colleagues in Xijing City to enjoy the winter plum blossoms." It's getting late, should we go? ”

Xu Ping thought from his contemplation, got up and said, "Let's go, we'll leave now." It's rare to have a treat, how can you not arrive early! ”

As he spoke, he picked up the hat and put it on his head and walked out the door.

Luoyang people love flowers, like to enjoy flowers, as long as there are flowers blooming throughout the year, this kind of gathering between friends will continue. At this time, there are many varieties of plum blossoms planted in Luoyang, such as yellow plum, red plum, purple plum and so on, but plum blossoms in Luoyang will only bloom in early spring. The air in Henan Mansion is warm, and there is an old plum that has been handed down from the Tang Dynasty, although it has not yet been the New Year, but it has already begun to bud, so Wang Yaochen invited everyone to see.

The Yamen of the Transshipment Division is not far from the Henan Mansion, and Xu Ping took a few people and walked a short distance to the place.

Li Ruogu was still unwell and did not appear, and everyone didn't care. He was in a state of seclusion in Henan Mansion, and all political affairs were handed over to Wang Yaochen, and when he showed up, it was a surprise, just like the last time he recruited officials from the branch department to make trouble.

When Xu Ping arrived, there were already a lot of people gathered in the back office, except for a few yamen in Luoyang, some officials with status in the leisure or branch departments also rushed over.

After talking to everyone, Xu Ping was invited to the pavilion and sat with Yan Shu and others.

As soon as he sat down, a young man walked up to Xu Ping and said with a deep salute: "Late Qian Mingyi, I have seen Du Cao." ”

Xu Ping looked this person up and down, dressed in civilian clothes, he looked very energetic and had good etiquette. said lightly: "You are Qian Dianzhong, and you have heard of his name for a long time." Everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and there is no need to claim to be a late child. ”

Qian Mingyi smiled awkwardly and said, "Du Caogui is a dragon figure-"

Before he finished speaking, Yan Shu on the side said: "Xu Longtu, I haven't seen you for many days, come and talk!" ”

Xu Ping got up, looked at Qian Mingyi, walked to Yan Shu and sat down, leaving Qian Mingyi standing there awkwardly.

The reason why Yan Shu was sent was because Qian Mingyi made trouble, so not only did Xu Ping look at him unpleasantly, but Yan Shu also looked at him unpleasantly. The identity of the Qian family is enough to worry about food and clothing, but it is not useful in officialdom, and it is good if a descendant of the king is not deliberately excluded politically. As for the Danshu iron coupon issued by Taizu, that thing is useless to a person of Xu Ping's status, not to mention that it is Qian Mingyi's turn to take charge of the Qian family's lifeline.

Watching Xu Ping laugh with Yan Shu and others, Qian Mingyi couldn't help but feel stunned. The children and grandchildren of Wu Yue's Qian family are all outstanding, and there are many Jinshi in the family, but Qian Mingyi has repeatedly fallen behind. Without a Jinshi background, there is no hope for the official career, with Qian Wei to play a generation of literary leaders, he has a wide range of contacts, and he can drill camps, and he is not allowed to be Dongfu, what is he Qian Mingyi? Therefore, in the past few years, Qian Mingyi has been camping everywhere, and the ministers have spared no effort to climb the relationship if they are able to say it, just to take a shortcut that does not go through the normal imperial examination. I originally wanted to follow Lu Yijian's path, but I didn't expect the recent wind to be in the wrong direction, so I had to find another way. But he didn't expect Xu Ping to give face at all, and he didn't even want to say a word, so he left himself here.

(Note: In history, Qian Mingyi attached himself to Lu Yijian, and the failure of the Qingli New Deal was that he played Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi and Du Yan in one day, which was appreciated by Lu Yijian, and he became a bachelor of Hanlin in five years from the middle school, and was one of the fastest people promoted to the two Song Dynasty.)

By the way, it's not very comfortable these days, and there is only one shift today, so forgive me. ）
