Out of the gate of the Chongzheng Palace, Zhang Shangying walked slowly and unhurriedly, all the way to the direction of the Yushitai.

The slightly brisk footsteps quietly revealed the joy in the heart of the new palace attendant.

Even if it is as expensive as a bachelor and a straight learner, there are only a few court officials who can stand alone in the Chongzheng Palace. And today, just now, Zhang Shangying is alone in singing to the Son of Heaven, criticizing the Keju League for gathering too many people, and even becoming the source of chaos. And more emphasis is placed on blatant gambling in the league, corrupting customs, and hurting education.

Although Zhang Shangying did not make the Son of Heaven make a permanent ban on the Keju League, and agreed with the accusation of immorality. But today's emperor is willing to let him alone, which is already an encouragement to him.

A light smile couldn't help but float to the corner of Zhang Shangying's mouth.

Could it be that the Son of Heaven would not know what he Zhang Tianjue was going to say in the court beforehand? In the case that he already knew it in advance, he also let his family enter the Chongzheng Hall alone, which is tantamount to posting a notice outside.

As a result, Han Gang wants to enter Zishantang safely and steadily, of course, it will be a little more difficult - who let him not make a case to make the two leagues of Keju and horse racing? It's self-inflicted!

What Zhang Shangying said today is indeed that the Keju League gathers people to cause chaos, but his essential purpose is to prevent Han Gang from entering the Zishan Hall and teaching the prince. To be more precise, I don't want him to become the master of the future Son of Heaven. Otherwise, Han Gang, who has become the minister of the Hidden Mansion, will inevitably hold the power of the court in the future. The new study will inevitably be replaced by the qi science, and the new method will also become unrecognizable in his hands

- Although Zhang Shangying actually doesn't care about the last two, he believes that there must be many people who care about this. For Zhang Shangying, the reason to make a move is enough.

Whether it is Lu Huiqing in Guanzhong or Wang Anshi in Jinling, he must not want to see such an ending - even if it is a relative of Weng's son-in-law, he can't bear to spend his life's hard work in vain. Although Zhang Shangying knows how to use it.

In the eyes of many people, Han Gang's previous ability to rely on being able to make a huge noise in the capital was entirely because the new school in the Guozijian was too unhelpful.

Well, to put it mildly, there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey is the king.

It's just that Han Gang took advantage of the disgust of the old ministers to the new law and set off enough momentum. This turned what should have been limited to academic debates into a political offensive to shake the new law. And the Son of Heaven, after once again insisting on the position of advocating new learning, also had to use the opportunity of serving Zishantang to appease Han Gang.

To prevent Han Gang from joining the Zishan Hall, the tragedy caused by the Keju competition is a godsend. Doing so can also show favor to the New Party, and Zhang Shangying has no reason to let go of such a good opportunity.

Even if she fails, Zhang Shangying doesn't care. As a royal historian, what I am afraid of is not that I will offend people, but that I will not be able to become famous, and I will not be able to be in the heart of the emperor. As long as the emperor can remember him, there will be rewards in the future.

After walking for half an hour, the south gate of Miyagi was in front of me.

In the distance, Zhang Shangying saw an official in a purple official uniform riding through the door, and several Yuan entourages followed him, brushing shoulders with Zhang Shangying, and went to the palace.

Zhang Shangying, as the imperial history, roped hundreds of officials, and supervised the civil and military officials in Xuande Gate and Wende Gate before the court meeting, and the officials in the court had at least one face-to-face.

The person who rode into the palace on horseback felt familiar at first glance, and after taking two steps, Zhang Shangying suddenly woke up,

'It's King Cao! ’

The third son of Emperor Yingzong and Empress Dowager Gao, and the third brother of today's son, King Cao Zhao Hao.

Looking back at Zhao Hao, who had already dismounted at the inner east gate, Zhang Shangying's pace slowed down, and his brows couldn't help frowning: What did the three kings do when they rushed into the palace?

Thinking of yesterday, four or five members of the clan and their female dependents entered the palace to meet the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother. Zhao Hao's purpose for entering the palace today is almost clear.

'What if all the clans come?' ’

Zhang Shangying strode out of the south gate of the palace city, sneering in his heart. If the sect's words were useful, when Wang Anshi reduced the clan's lords, the Son of Heaven would not have hesitated to start implementing it in the world.

In the past two days, the clans in the capital, you and I have come and gone to visit each other, just like during the New Year, and there are more than two cases that have entered Zhang Shangying's ears.

But no matter how many clans join forces, they can't withstand a word from the Son of Heaven.

It's useless at all!

Could it be that Zhang Shangying didn't know what kind of position the Dao clan occupied in the Keju League and the Horse Racing League, and how they relied on the two leagues?

But the more good things the clan said, and the more diligent the contact was in private, the greater the risk Han Gang carried. aroused the suspicion in the heart of the Son of Heaven, and if Han Gang wanted to come out, it would be a hundred or a thousand times more difficult.

Zhang Shangying now wishes that after Zhao Hao enters the palace, he can help Han Gang say a few more words. That way, you'll be able to sit back and relax.

……………………

A tragedy caused by a Keju competition provokes a group of crows that eat carrion. It's like stabbing a hornet's nest, making the clans who are doing it but have damaged their interests become restless.

The wealth attracted by the two events is astronomical, and the profits drawn by the Qiyun Headquarters and the Horse Racing Headquarters as the organizers are not even allowed to be announced, but once distributed to many stakeholders, it is not too exaggerated to get into the hands of individuals.

For ordinary clans who use their identities to run for the event, they may only have the benefits of an additional hundred yuan a year, but the amount they use to support their families is only three or four times that amount. In proportion, if you lose this extra income, you will be cutting off a large piece of meat from them, which is not fatal, but it is very destructive.

Even the two princes, the brothers of the Son of Heaven, in addition to the Yulu, the minister's money that can be used is only 8,000 yuan a year, which is still half money and half silk. As for the head of the Keju headquarters and the proprietor of the first-class league team, the sum of their annual income from tickets, advertising, dividends, bonuses and other items is basically more than five or six thousand. Although the Jockey Club has not been in operation for a long time, Zhao Shijiang, the head of the association, has also received as many as more than 3,000 yuan in dividends - this amount, as long as you don't dislike appearance and age teeth, you can also catch two or three Jinshi sons-in-law, and you can also catch them under the yellow list.

Therefore, Han Gang can sit firmly in Diaoyutai and compile his "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the small courtyard in the corner of Taichang Temple. Because he knew the Tao, the clans, nobles, and wealthy families who were related to him could not sit back and watch the Yushitai continue to make waves.

Yesterday, even Wang Yi received an invitation from the princess of Shu and invited her to come over. Although the princess of Shu has nothing to do with the two leagues, there are not a few clans who are qualified to ask for her.

For this, Han Gang asked Wang Yi to send a reply, apologized, and said that he was not in good health and wanted to recuperate at home for a while. Now is not the time to get involved, and Han Gang has no intention of getting involved, he wants to see the ability of this interest group to escort him, instead of bowing down to everything himself, and learning Zhuge Liang to exhaust himself to death in Wuzhang Plain.

At noon, Han Gang heard another piece of news from his subordinate officials, "The old lady of the Cai ruling family entered the palace yesterday to meet the queen mother and the queen. ”

Han Gang raised his eyebrows, Cai Qu's wife also entered the palace? It's really hilarious.

If it weren't for the fact that the birthday of the Empress Dowager Gao was in June, I really thought it was my birthday. Empress Xiang's birthday seems to be in November - when it comes to the birthday of the queen mother and queen in the palace, the foreign women with titles have to enter the palace to celebrate their birthdays. Foreign ministers like Han Gang also have to prepare birthday gifts for the Queen Mother or the Queen Mother, and they have to keep it in mind.

Cai Qu's mother, Ming, is already sixty or seventy years old, and she can't talk to the concubines in the palace who are in their teens and twenties. Even the Empress Dowager Gao is much smaller than the Ming family. There is no popularity in the palace, and it is not so easy to enter the palace.

And it is said that the Empress Dowager Gao did not like all the courtiers of the current dynasty. Wang Anshi, Lu Huiqing, Zhang Dan, needless to say, the cadres of the new party, their family members entered the palace, and it was impossible for them to have a good face in the Empress Dowager Gao. Wang Jue, Cai Qu, Han Jin, none of these Zaifu can enter the eyes of the Empress Dowager Gao.

The people in the two mansions are also good to say about Lu Gong's book. As for him Han Gang, not to mention the identity of Wang Anshi's son-in-law, even with what he did in the past, it is impossible to have a good look. The layer of kinship that was drawn from his cousin Feng Congyi couldn't even be mentioned.

Although Feng Congyi's Hun family is the daughter of the Gao family, it is a side branch after all, and his father is close to Gao Zunyu. Gao Zunyu, who is a good martial artist, has never been welcomed by the Empress Dowager Gao. In the Gao family, Gao Zunyu is a complete exception, and the other Gao family members are all very honest, and An An enjoys the wealth provided by the imperial court.

And the most important thing is that Han Gang competed with Empress Dowager Gao's favorite second son for the Oiran, and he also easily smeared a layer of black ash on Zhao Hao's reputation.

As Han Gang's name spread all over the world, his old affair with Zhao Hao was also publicized. The story of changing the name of the person involved was widely circulated in the world, and was even written into a miscellaneous play, which was performed for two days in the famous elephant shed of Goolan Courtyard on the north side of East Cross Street—but only for two days, and was banned on the third day. It's just that the more banned books are, the more people love to watch them, and the more forbidden dramas they are, the more people naturally want to watch them, so the scripts of miscellaneous plays are spread everywhere.

In such a situation, although Zhao Hao still hates his brother Zhao Hao behind his back, it is impossible for Han Gang to be treated by the Empress Dowager Gao, and it is needless to say that he is even secretly hated.

Only those old ministers who were driven out of the capital could be valued by the Queen Mother...... Perhaps there is also Su Shi, in the Baoci Palace, it is said that Su Shi's new words are often sung.

However, Ming's entry into the palace should have nothing to do with this incident. Cai or his relatives should not have participated in either league. From the very beginning, most of the two head offices were imperial relatives or wealthy families who had lived in the capital for a long time, rather than courtiers who were often transferred everywhere in Beijing and localities.

It's just that the Ming family entered the palace, what people will think about it when it is placed outside, and how it will be passed on, it is difficult to say. Those with a heart will not let go of this opportunity to muddy the waters. It's not that there is a little misunderstanding, and no one will talk about such gossip in front of Han Gang.

Anyway, the whole thing is getting more and more interesting. Han Gang is looking forward to what kind of means this interest group he has cultivated will have to survive the difficulties.

When it was time to release the ya, a piece of news that made Han Gang couldn't help but laugh reached his hands, which came from the Kaifeng Mansion where the case was tried today.

On this day, more than 30 witnesses were brought to court. More than 30 witnesses unanimously said that the perpetrator of the whole tragedy, that is, the culprit who started to cause the chaos in the first place, was none other than Nam Shun Hou, who was trampled to death - Li Qiande!

"I can't imagine it!" Han Gang Dalu smiled, and he didn't know who he was talking about.
