Chapter 200: Coming Together
Walking to the door of the clean room, Yan Shu couldn't help but look back at the sun in the western sky. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's really hard to do it yourself! If the problem of the inability of the three divisions to pay the Henan Mansion ticket is not solved, Lu Yijian's decision cannot be said to be unreasonable, his decision stands, and with these people in front of him, how can he overturn Lu Yijian's opinion? I'm afraid that Wang Zeng will support it, but that won't work. If there was such a strong force that could compete with Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng would not be in a hurry.
Now in the imperial court, Lu Yijian and Song Shou are two people in the political hall, Wang Zeng and Cai Qi are two people, and the middle one is like Wang Zeng's same year, but it seems to be neutral, but in fact, he always helps Lu Yijian at critical moments. In addition to Li Zhizhong, Wang Deyong doesn't care about anything in the Privy Council, and it is basically all people on Lu Yijian's side, and the new Kou Yang is seriously ill and is actually no longer on the council. As for the other yamen, they are all over Lu Yijian's henchmen, and Wang Zeng can't implement any decision he makes.
The situation is stronger than people, and no matter how good "Rich Country and Peaceful People's Policy" is, it cannot shake Lu Yijian's status in the imperial court.
Sighing in his heart, Yan Shu stepped up to enter the clean room, but the corner of his eyes swept over and suddenly saw a blue horn flashing into the temple door.
Rubbing his eyes vigorously, he saw the Qingluo umbrella that had entered the temple gate, and Yan Shu suddenly felt that the corners of his eyes were a little moist. These days are really tormenting for him, from the bottom of his heart, he hopes to pull Lu Yijian down, especially Fan Zhongyan, who he values, was demoted from the court, and a group of promising young officials were suppressed, and he felt that Lu Yijian would really do more harm than good to sit in the position of prime minister again. But all kinds of practical concerns made him not have any confidence in this matter, so he relied on a book of "Rich Country Security and People's Policy" and relied on this group of middle-level officials on Jingxi Road to bring down Zai, Xu Ping was too whimsical. It was so easy to fall, and he underestimated Lu Yijian's ten-year operation.
The only ones who can give Yan Shu the most confidence are Li Di and Chen Yaozuo, who are officials on Jingxi Road at this time. Li Di used to be the emperor's teacher, and together with Kou Zhun was framed and attacked by Ding Wei, both in the officialdom and the people, they have a very high prestige, and Zhao Zhen is not comparable to others in his heart. Chen Yaozuo was born in a famous family, has been in and out for decades, although he is old, his momentum has not diminished. The Chen family's connections, coupled with Chen Yaozuo's own outstanding achievements in local politics, cannot be underestimated.
Such two people, just say a word, and Xu Ping can't compare how much he does. They didn't arrive today, which made Yan Shu's heart very depressed, and the last bit of confidence was lost. He couldn't listen to what Deng Zhou had discussed, and he had already decided to go back and repay according to Lu Yijian's previous intentions, at least to make clear his position not to oppose Lu Yijian.
"It's finally here!" Yan Shu grabbed Xu Ping beside him, and tears almost flowed down.
At this time, the guide had already entered the temple gate, and the officials who were signing and painting were in a hurry. Xu Ping turned around and saw Li Di and Chen Yaozuo under the Qingluo umbrella from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward with Yan Shu to greet him.
Xu Ping had already prepared for the two of them to arrive, and although they were a little surprised when they arrived now, they were not as excited as Yan Shu in their hearts. The two of them were able to rush to support him, Xu Ping was naturally grateful, but he knew very well that he could not change the situation.
Stepping forward past the busy officials, Xu Ping and Yan Shu saluted together to greet Li Di and Chen Yaozuo.
Looking at the busy officials in the courtyard, Li Di said to Xu Ping: "You have gathered today, have you already agreed?" ”
Xu Ping arched his hand: "Back to Xianggong, it has been agreed." The pleadings have been written, and I will have them brought to you. ”
"No need." Li Di waved his hand, "Chen Xianggong and I deliberately arrived at this hour, just because we don't want to disturb your deliberations." It just so happened that Chen Xianggong mentioned that Lu Ge was in charge of Zhengzhou last year, and he himself didn't know much about the new policy, so he decided not to participate in this matter with me. The politics of a state, the lord of the state, everything is subject to what Li Shen and Lu Ge said, and we sign the pleadings. ”
Xu Ping bowed and saluted: "The two ministers are virtuous, Xu is difficult to repay, and he will receive a salute." ”
Li Di and Chen Yaozuo calmly accepted Xu Ping's salute, and the other officials, led by Jia Changling and Zhao He, came over and greeted the two ministers who came from afar. People came and did not participate in the deliberations, Li Di and Chen Yaozuo came to stand for Xu Ping this time, showing the unity of the officials of Jingxi Road, and it was natural for them to be courteous by Xu Ping.
Although Tidian Prison is one of the chief officials of the road, the ranking is low, just a little higher than the sequence of Zhizhou, and the status of Zhao He and other Zhizhou who were present is higher than Jia Changling, and it cannot be compared with Xu Ping's identity as a dragon.
Lu is not an administrative division, and in the strict sense, the transfer envoy and the prison are the dispatched agencies of the central government, which are very different from the provinces with real power in later generations. It has to do with the high status of local officials and the officials they bring, and at this point the transfer of money and food is more important than the mention of prisons, and relatively speaking, the meaning of the superiors of local state and county officials is heavier, and the mention of prisons is far worse. In particular, there is a pacification envoy on Jingxi Road, and the prison is not patrolled to arrest thieves, and the status is downgraded by one level.
After the salute, the sun was already lying on the distant mountain, and it was about to get dark.
Xu Ping said to Li Di and Chen Yaozuo: "It's getting late, the two of you go to the clean room for tea." Tonight's banquet was held to entertain the officials who came, just to wash the dust for the two ministers. ”
When they arrived at the clean room, the guests and hosts sat down, Jia Changling continued to be busy outside, and Zhao He accompanied him.
The little novice in the temple served tea, and Li Di asked Yan Shu: "When will the bachelor return to Beijing?" ”
"After this incident, I went back to Beijing to resume my life. At this time, it has been nearly half a year since I left Beijing, and I can't wait any longer. The arrival of the two former Zaisuke gave Yan Shu the most crucial confidence, and his mood improved.
Chen Yaozuo said: "The officials of Jingxi Road are united, and the people who implemented the new policy last year also benefited a lot, and the bachelor must have seen it in the past few months." Because the tickets of Henan Province cannot be cashed, the money and grain of the states are stretched, and it is extremely inconvenient for the new policy to continue to be implemented. This year, the camp did not dare to expand its land to recruit people, and it suffered the most. It's our Zhengzhou, because we are in Beijing, there are a lot of businessmen who sell cotton cloth, and we also have a lot of flying tickets in our hands, and I can't get the money to repair the Xinhe wharf. ”
Yan Shu nodded: "I understand, I understand, this time I will return to Beijing, I must report to the imperial court, and I will pay all the tickets on Jingxi Road no matter what." If not, wouldn't it be a sin to be afraid that this effective new deal will die halfway? ”
Chen Yaozuo and Li Di looked at each other and smiled, in addition to showing their support for Xu Ping, another purpose was to give Yan Shu the courage to go back and fight against Lu Yijian. Sure enough, as soon as the two ministers appeared, Yan Shu's mentality immediately changed.
