Chapter 603: Prime Minister (1)
Spring is getting deeper.
The green grass is connected to the end of the world, and there is no end in sight.
A few swallows are flying in the sky, the willows are green, and the season of hope has arrived.
A carriage was escorted by several guards to the city of Beizhou, which should be called Enzhou City at this time.
The case in the palace was turbulent, but the city of Beizhou gradually returned to calm. Some people were arrested, but more people let Zheng Lang release and did not pursue them further. First of all, he organized people to rebuild the city wall of Beizhou, and the soldiers were disbanded one by one, and began to organize the people to cultivate and produce in spring.
The rebellion was devastating to the state.
Not only did Wang Ze's rebellion, but Jia Changchao and Gao Jilong rewarded indiscriminately, encouraging soldiers to kill, and also brought serious harm to the people.
But Zheng Lang knew that he had not been in Beizhou for a long time, and as Zhang Fangping said, there are two ways to govern the locality, one is to be short, flat and fast, and quickly give some favorable policies to make the local area safe and sound. One is the long-term governance of officials, including water conservancy, industry and commerce, etc., and it must take three to five years to see results. Zheng Lang chose the former.
The people are not interested, confused, frustrated, remorseful, pessimistic, and their names are registered, and they are also very worried. This is also very normal, and it is impossible to make them happy. Zheng Lang has nothing to do about the negative emotions in the hearts of the people, he can only hope that they will learn from the pain and not be used by people like Wang Ze next time.
On the whole, the people of Beizhou gradually returned to tranquility.
After all, Zheng Lang has more than nine years of governance experience in the local area, not a junior brother who has just arrived in Taiping Prefecture.
However, this time Zheng Lang didn't like it very much.
Cui Xian and Huan'er came to Beizhou in person, afraid of accidents. Zheng Lang sent soldiers from afar to greet Cui Xian to Beizhou City.
When he met Zheng Lang, he said: "Xian'er, you can't come to Beizhou City at this time. ”
"Official. I have come to make the officials more peaceful and the people's hearts. ”
Cui Xianlai is a kind of high-mindedness, and it is a kind of trust in the remaining Wang Ze believers in Beizhou. But the current Zheng Lang is not Zheng Lang who just came to the Song Dynasty, I treat people with the belly of a gentleman, and people will treat me with the belly of a gentleman. Wrong, on the contrary, the more some people treat them as a gentleman, the more they think that you are weak and can be bullied, and the same is true of the country, such as the Song Dynasty. Or, for example, the dynasties after the Song Dynasty. How many white-eyed wolves are raised in China.
So it is with the nation, and so it is with the man.
Cui Xian came to Beizhou City, which is the joint belief of the husband and wife in the people of Beizhou City, and it is also conducive to peace of mind. But some believers are still obsessed, but Zheng Lang scooped lightly and didn't want to kill, so he let it go. Surrounded by his own guards. It will be fine, but when some believers still don't give up, it is not good for Cui Xian. Could it be that Cui Xian and Huan'er will travel and send a large number of guards to protect them?
Cui Xian took his hand and said, "The concubine just wants to accompany you." ”
Nothing is in words.
Come to home. In fact, it was the original state government, because it was not extravagant, so the king gave up and set up the "palace" in a large family. Therefore, it was preserved in the flames of war. There was a prison next to the state office, and the king ordered the door of the cell to be opened and all the prisoners released. These prisoners all became the main fighters of the rebels, and either died or had Zheng Lang escorted to the capital and executed. Only a few people were tattooed by Zhao Zhen to fill the army.
This army is very different from the ordinary forbidden army, doing the hardest work, being supervised, and being poorly paid. It can be regarded as a kind of labor reform education that changes direction.
There were too many people, and Zhao Zhen couldn't bear to execute all the rebels.
It is a very benevolent approach, but in addition to these people, there are also some people who do not deserve to die, or who have doubts, or important leaders of the demon sect who have been escorted by other state capitals, and whose crimes have not been established, have been arrested one after another and stuffed into prison cells.
But there is still a mansion behind the Yuanzhou Ya, so Zheng Lang chose it as his residence. When Gao Jilong saw it, he had no choice but to learn from Zheng Lang, and he lived in this mansion simply. His huge family background is daunting for Wang Xin and Wang Kai, but for Zheng Lang, it is nothing. …,
No matter how fierce you are, you can beat the eight kings?
The Song Dynasty was the third largest of the Emperor Laozi, let alone the powerful, but the Shidafu Group!
Zheng Lang didn't say anything to Gao Jilong, as the governor of a state, this person is only Chinese-funded, as a military general, not as far away as his brother Gao Jixuan. However, there is still a family affair in the harem, think about that Gao Tao, there is no need to offend this magnate.
The two get along quite closely.
Zheng Lang did not bring his family, and Gao Jilong did not bring his family over. Don't dare to bring it over.
Hearing that Cui Xian was coming, Gao Jilong greeted him politely and said a few words.
Walking into the house, Huan'er took his subordinates to pack their luggage, and Cui Xian politely made tea for Gao Jilong. Gao Jilong was a little flattered. This is where Cui Xian's shrewdness lies.
With Zheng Lang's current status, there is no need for Cui Xian to respect Gao Jilong so much. But Zhao Zhen has been childless for a long time, and Cui Xian can't help but think of Pianpin.
After a conversation, Gao Jilong left with interest.
Xiao Biesheng is newly married, and Zheng Lang is not a prostitute, you know.
Cui Xian asked, "Official, when will you return to the capital?" ”
It's not really asking when you can go back to the capital, there are other meanings.
"Xian'er, I don't want to think about it anymore." Zheng Lang replied.
It's not that I don't want to go back to the capital.
When he came to Beizhou, the main thing was to prevent Wen Yanbo from carrying a sedan chair. Ming Ho didn't care, and because of Zheng Lang, he didn't enter the two mansions, and was awarded the post of governor by Zhao Zhen. Ming Ho is old and will die soon, which has little impact on the two provinces. Zheng Lang was afraid of Jia Changchao.
Don't be afraid if you don't do things, but be afraid when you do things.
The Junzi Party is so strong, Jia Changchao just gave a few small pushers, and then it disappeared, not all of it was Jia Changchao's fault, but Jia Changchao played an indispensable role in it.
However, the court is still very chaotic, even if it is the two mansions, it continues to be crowded.
It is possible that Zhao Zhen is not ready.
That position came like a tower, but Zheng Lang was hesitating.
Huan'er packed up the bed, ran over, and complained: "Official, as soon as your airboat arrived in the capital, there were four thieves in the palace. ”
I hate it so much, what a long face, but let the four anti-thieves stir up the atmosphere.
Cui Xian looked at Zheng Lang curiously.
This assassination case is too bizarre, and there are many things that Cui Xian didn't figure out. Especially the attitude of the emperor.
Zheng Lang was silent.
Because the answer is more bizarre and will cause an uproar, it is not said.
Cui Xian sneered: "That Xia Zhu has really fallen. ”
Zheng Lang said in a low voice: "He's very smart." But being smart is mistaken by being smart. ”
Cui Xian was confused, but after a while, she finally thought of the possible truth, and her face turned pale. said in a trembling voice: "The emperor is not like that......"
"It's an accident on Queen Cao's side...... This is a serious matter and should not be talked about. ”
Cui Xian nodded, but there was still a look of fear on her face. A warm breeze blew, but Cui Xian felt that the wind was very cold, and her body couldn't help but shiver.
The reason is the truth of this assassination.
The person who assassinated Zhao Zhen was Zhao Zhen himself!
Zhao Zhen doted on the Zhang family, but because of the status of the Zhang family and the orthodox concept of the minister. If you want to put the Zhang family on the throne, it is impossible.
That's why there was this assassination case, Zhao Zhen's insensitivity after the assassination case, the courage of the four guards to make trouble in the palace, and the weakness of not even punishing the families of the four guards. Because the envoy is Zhao Zhen himself!
His intention in doing this was to give Zhang a chance to make meritorious contributions.
Zhao Zhen will not kill the four guards because he will let the Zhang family take the throne.
There may be other arrangements.
But he underestimated Empress Cao's calmness. and command capabilities. So things went unexpectedly, and in the end they had to kill people.
But almost everyone doesn't think about Zhao Zhen, so this assassination case has become confusing. …,
Xia Zhu may not be so smart, he may be the same as Wen Yanbo, Pang Ji, and Lu Yijian in front. I want to know Zhao Zhen's movements, as well as some people in the harem who say good things about them, have some contact with some people in the harem, and get some clues. And with his extraordinary wisdom, he faintly perceived the truth of the assassination case.
This case can't be investigated!
If you check it out, what kind of storm will it cause if you find Zhao Zhen?
But this time he did it wrong.
Since Zhao Zhen has done this, and he is the emperor, how can he let the minister find the truth and evidence of the matter? He was trying to get Zhao Zhen to speak, but in the end, Zhao Zhen did not do much in his life, although he would never want to kill the four guards at first.
Zheng Lang took the golden finger to see the truth. Xia Zhu used some means to get the truth of the matter. Zheng Lang would not do what Xia Zhu did, and even deliberately avoided this matter, but Xia Zhu not only knew the truth of the matter, but also got involved.
Since then, Zhao Zhen has really alienated Xia Zhu.
is also Zhao Zhen, if he is another emperor, it is very likely that he will kill people.
But the timing of Zhao Zhen's choice made Zheng Lang a little puzzled.
Obviously, the airboat is about to return to the capital, why did it attack the day before? can completely take back a day, or move forward for a few days, could it be that Zhao Zhen will also have the idea of being a master of high merit? Is it self-defeating to show your loyalty?
"Official, lady, what are you talking about?" Huan'er didn't understand.
"Si'er, I'm talking about whether officials should go back to the capital."
"Why don't you go back to the capital?" Huan'er didn't understand, the capital was crazy, saying that the officials would become prime ministers as soon as they returned to the capital.
Several maidens have prepared a large number of sacrifices, preparing to return to Zhengzhou to worship the ancestors of the Zheng family when the officials worship as the prime minister.
"Do you want to be the prime minister for only a few months, or do you want to be the prime minister for a few years?"
As the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, it is impossible to stay in the phase for decades, even Lu Yijian has been delegated many times.
But as a minister, it will be longer in the center than in the locality.
Some ministers may worship the prime minister in front and be demoted from the court later. It's not just Xia Zhu a few years ago.
"Big lady, what's the difference?"
"Timing."
"Could it be that the assassination in the palace was instigated by Empress Cao?" Huan'er asked again.
I couldn't hear it clearly, I misunderstood.
"Huan'er, you can't ask about this matter." Zheng Lang shouted.
It was too embarrassing for people to hear about it, Zheng Lang didn't dare to say more, but just said to Cui Xian again: "Xian'er, it is possible that the two governments will have a new reshuffle." ”
Not far away, a family was cooking, and wisps of cooking smoke rose into the sky, like a thick fog gradually dissolving. What is the truth, is there a so-called truth in the world, maybe the truth will always be in the thick fog. (To be continued.)
