Behind the curtain, the queen walked into the small door leading to the apse with a tiger face, and the confrontation in the Chongzheng Hall over whether to blame Han Gang was debated to the end, and the result was as good as ever.

Wang Anshi led the ministers to salute, got up, and remained silent. There was no euphoria of winning another battle.

Zhang Dun stepped out of the temple gate and couldn't help but sigh. The voice was a little louder, and I could feel that the attendant TV line guarding the temple gate had turned around. It's just that as soon as he came into contact with Zhang Dan's gloomy face, he immediately turned back.

Without the oppressive force from the outside world, any controversial resolution would have to be protracted before it could be issued, not to mention the Privy Councillor who had made great achievements, and the original intention of both sides of the argument was not to discuss the crime.

He remembered that the last few times he could quickly reach an agreement: one was to mint an additional 2.5 million copper and iron coins in the second half of this year for the use of the imperial court; One is the prohibition of smuggling grape shochu - there is no need to add koji to make wine, this secret has been tried to cover up by the government that controls the winemaking industry through the monopoly of koji, but after it was revealed in an issue of the "Qiyun Express", it spread to the people [Note 1], and now some people use wine to distill and make grape shochu, and the court can no longer bear it, and it is good to pay a penny more; The remaining one is a resolution to reward the Jingying forbidden army that participated in the war.

It took only three days to decide to get money from the queen and to punish the soldiers who led the trouble. This is an incredibly high speed since the peace talks were reached.

However, thinking of the public case of the Jingying Forbidden Army, Zhang Dian still couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

This matter was completely a stumbling block for Han Gang to the two governments, otherwise he would not have sent Jingying back so quickly. The thousands of people from the Western Army supporting Hedong are still in the Shenwu Army, and according to Han Gang's request, they will all be resettled on the spot, and they will also be sent to the fields, and the military cantonment will be launched.

waited until something happened that Han Gang's opinion came. After the war, the population of Daizhou was in dire need of immigrants. It is hoped that the soldiers who will relocate to Daizhou will receive the fields issued by the imperial court. If you can make military merits again, you can even leave the military. If Han Gang's recital could arrive one step earlier, the imperial court would not need to give them money, and they would be able to send everyone to Hedong directly.

The crimson military robe is not something that everyone wants to wear, even if they have a fairly stable income, even if they can wear silk shoes - soldiers have at least two silk horses a year - but once they hear that they can have dozens of acres of good fields, they can run more than half of it, even if they are far away in Daizhou.

As early as the time of Renzong, the imperial court wanted to sand the unqualified soldiers, although the monarchs and ministers were worried, but nothing happened after the end. Many of the soldiers were eager to get out of the sea of misery at once. A few years ago, when the art of war was introduced, it was a similar situation, many unqualified soldiers of the forbidden army were demoted to the inferior military rank, and their salaries were reduced, and some were sent home, but nothing happened - after all, joining the army is a cheap service, and the discrimination against non-commissioned soldiers is also the heaviest in the capital in the north.

To tell the truth, in the eyes of the imperial court now, the soldiers who participated in the troubles and even benefited from them were dangerous elements with treacherous intentions. In addition to the execution of the chiefs, in a matter of time, the Privy Council would break up the departments and reorganize them, and demote most of the soldiers to the inferior ranks. And Han Gang's proposal is to let them stay away from the capital from now on, and even leave the army in the future, so that the imperial court can also feel at ease, and save a lot of trouble.

It's just that the hearts of the two houses are not happy,

In these days, there is a lot of talk about Han Gang's request to move part of the Jingying forbidden army to Daizhou, and send it to the fields to calm the army's heart. is mostly related to the conversation with Zhang Xiaojie that circulated before.

But there are still some discussions, although they have not been published, Xue Xiangzhi said that there are many people who use Han Gang's recital to ridicule the incompetence of the two governments. The problem that can be solved with the wasteland of Daizhou, but the two governments went to dig out the private pockets of the heavenly family, and it also made the people in Beijing uneasy. Even if someone understands that this is a problem for Han Gang, the response of the two governments is a little too stupid.

Listening to such rumors, where can Dongfu Xifu feel happy in his heart.

Anyway, if you just kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, there will be no problem in a short time, and at least 10,000 forbidden troops who have gone through the war will move to Hedong, which will have a great impact on the strength of the forbidden army in Beijing, and it needs to be filled.

Today's events are basically the same.

Han Gang's proposal must be reconsidered, the disposition of Han Gang must be reconsidered, and the response to the Liaoli War must also be reconsidered.

At least until the real envoy of Goryeo arrives before he officially enters the agenda. Don't think about the reinforcements, it's impossible to send them anyway.

However, after Zhang's efforts, the imperial court also decided to provide Goryeo with some weapons, including bows, crossbows, swords, and even armor. Since the great change of armaments of the forbidden army, the arsenal has been filled with old goods that have been replaced in the army, purely for raising rats - there are small ones that gnaw on leather armor, and there are large ones that are cold and cold.

When the Song and Liao were at war, An Tao, who had been an envoy to Goryeo, proposed that he could sell it to Goryeo, or even Nuzhi, so that he could cause some trouble to the Liao people, and secondly, to avoid cheap 'rats' of all sizes, and to spend money to save them. At that time, it was rejected in the court, but now it seems that it is regrettable that it was not passed.

Behind Wang Anshi and the two prime ministers, Zhang Dian was followed by the deputies of the Government Hall and the Privy Council, and then behind. A group of slaughterers walked in unison, without saying a word to each other.

Passing through the Zuojiasu Gate, passing through the Ninghui Palace, to the east is the political hall, and to the west is the Privy Council.

Wang Anshi did not enter the political hall, but left alone. The Zaifu went their separate ways, Lu Jia asked to return to the third division, Li Qingchen went to Wutai, and the Hanlin returned to Yutang, each with its own place to go.

"Zeng and Li seem to have a tacit understanding."

Zhang Dian turned around, and Xue Xiangzheng was standing behind him. Before entering the political affairs hall, Zeng Bu and Li Qingchen hurriedly exchanged a look, Zhang Dian saw it, and Xue Xiang also saw it.

"I didn't expect Gao Li's accident, but I still couldn't let Han Yukun come back. Wang Jiefu seems to be iron-hearted. Xue Xiang took two steps forward and walked side by side with Zhang Dan.

Just now in the Chongzheng Palace, Li Qingchen insisted on asking Han Gang to blame, Zeng Bu pushed the boat to transfer Han Gang back for questioning, Zhang Dian insisted that Han Gang was not guilty, but he also vaguely agreed with Zeng Bu's opinion, and the most strongly supported Han Gang's innocence was Wang Anshi, and even when Li Qingchen said that Wang Anshi was harming state affairs with his personal relatives, when avoiding suspicion of relatives, Wang Anshi did not hesitate to talk about public and private, and he should defend Han Gang.

——The so-called relatives hide each other, and help their son-in-law speak with their personal feelings, which is also legally tolerant; And from the official point of view, Li Qingchen's impeachment is completely framed, as a Pingzhang, how can he sit idly by? Rightly so.

But the actual intentions of the two sides are known to everyone, and they happen to be reversed. Such an argument is simply ridiculous.

"But ......" Xue Xiang paused slightly, "Is Zeng Zixuan sincere?" ”

Zhang Dian looked left and right and said to him: "Li Bangzhi [Li Qingchen] is definitely not sincere. ”

Li Qingchen is Han Qi's nephew-in-law, who runs through Hebei and has never been a new party. He was frugal and selfless, so he was elected as the middle of the imperial history. It's just that Wutai is the middle party of the new party, and Yushi is only responsible for the Son of Heaven, and Li Qingchen can't control the people below him. The entire Yushitai is still biased towards the new party, and several of his subordinates are also eyeing his position.

Changing places, Zhang Dian will only try to get out of this fire pit. When you go out, you will never be reconciled; transferred, there is no position in the DPRK and China that can be compared with the head of Wutai; There is only one level to go further: that is the two mansions. Among the government, most of them are southerners, and adding an auxiliary from the north is even more desirable. But this will require the overcrowded two governments to vacate some places. The two governments, which had clear barriers and serious differences, were the most beneficial to Li Qingchen.

"It's all the same."

"Hmm." Zhang Dian nodded softly, and there was a wave of annoyance in his heart. Han Gang's remarks to Zhang Xiaojie gave him a great inspiration, which was the necessity and theoretical basis for expanding the territory, and from then on, there was the most effective counterattack weapon for the so-called reckless attacks of the outside world.

For an ambitious man like Zhangdun, the entanglement of the struggle for power and profit in the court, and getting along with that group of colleagues, was as unbearable as being immersed in a stinking puddle. Not only was it stained with a stench, but it was also imprisoned by the mud. When will we return to the efficiency and harmony of war.

Zeng Bu On the surface, he wanted to help Han Gang, but in fact?

Wang Anshi usually goes to court on the fifth day, and today's discussion in the palace is really related to important military affairs, so Wang Anshi, the important military affairs of Pingzhang, will be present. But the last time Zeng Bu asked himself to stay right, it was on the day when Wang Anshi went to court normally. If it was the day before or the day after, maybe he would be able to communicate with the queen smoothly and get Han Gang and Lu Huiqing back.

Now, Wang Anshi has taken precautions, even if the queen Liuzengbu asks the right question and makes a draft, he can also reject it through the knowledge system. Actually, it's a big deal.

Today, he chose to compete with Wang Anshi in person, whether Zeng Bu's original intention was to recall Han Gang, or to show favor to the queen and strengthen his position, Zhang Dian had almost confirmed his intentions. Provoke the relationship between Han Gang and his father-in-law, so that the two sides are incompatible, no matter who wins the last, Zeng Bu can always benefit.

It's really annoying. Zhang Dian couldn't help but recall that when he was in charge of the military and political affairs of the party, he sat down with words and deeds, and issued military orders on horseback, which was by no means as cowardly and sleepy as it is now.

Note 1: Although as early as the Tang Dynasty, some people in China recognized that wine can be fermented naturally without the addition of koji. The Northern Song Dynasty's "Evidence of Materia Medica" also has a "grape wine method, always collect the juice to make it, and make its own wine". However, in another professional winemaking monograph of the Northern Song Dynasty, "The Book of Beishan Wine", koji is still added to the process of making wine.
