Zhao Ji asked Xiaohuangmen to turn out Xue Xiang's recital, and criticized a sentence in the back, saying that Xiang was repeated, and there was no minister's body.

Then prepare an edict to demote Xue Xiang to Yingzhou.

This incident was caused by horse breeding.

Previously, Kaifeng Prefecture sent an envoy Chen to Shangshu, suggesting that the people should be given a little money and let the people of Kaifeng Mansion also raise horses. Yang Ma You was sent to the military, and this letter was presented to Xifu, and Xue Xiang served as the privy deputy envoy, and after seeing it, he agreed.

The imperial court is ready to execute.

However, some people found Xue Xiang to discuss the pros and cons of raising horses in Kaifeng Mansion, Kaifeng Mansion is not unable to raise horses, on the contrary, from Kaifeng Mansion to Zhengzhou, the imperial court has set up several large pastoral supervisors. However, with the increase in population and land shortage, many herdsmen have engaged in large-scale encroachment, that is, many powerful people have encroached on the good land of the herdsmen and converted it into their own arable land.

As for the rest of the place, just look at the number of households in Kaifeng, the area of Kaifeng Mansion is not small, but the population including the capital is only more than 200,000 households, of course, the actual number of more than 200,000 households, because the floating population of Ruoda Beijing has reached half, including merchant households and hundreds of thousands of forbidden soldiers. It doesn't matter how many people there are in the capital, which shows that in addition to the capital and the nine compartments outside the city, there are only tens of thousands of people in the suburbs of Kaifeng, and compared with the current Song Dynasty, the population is not dense.

Why?

Land also.

Salinization has begun to appear on the outskirts of Kaifeng Province, so in order to survive, the people do not grow food, but plant mulberry fruit trees, and some fertile land is used for vegetable gardens. Even if Wang Ju proposed that Wang Anshi launch a silting action, the real area of fertile land is still not much. And it's this poor little silt. It was also successively used to house the forbidden troops who were transferred outside the city.

This geography. Is it suitable for ordinary people to raise horses? Or is it possible for the imperial court to remove those shepherds and let the people raise horses? Even if the court is willing to move, is it necessary to let the common people not work all day, ride horses to the pastoral prison in the morning, and come back in the evening?

Therefore, once it is implemented, the people of the capital will suffer.

Xue Xiang felt justified when he heard it, so he read the book cryptically. It is advisable to cancel this edict.

But because although it was proposed by Chen Xiang to raise horses in the capital, it was Xue Xiang who persuaded Zhao Xiang to issue an edict, and now he regretted it, Xue Xiang felt very embarrassed, and it was not clear in the chapter. After Zhao Ji looked at it, he didn't pay much attention.

Xue Xiang was anxious when he saw that the emperor did not express his position, so he privately persuaded other ministers to write a letter, as long as you write against raising horses in the capital, then I will say it again, the ministers were not appropriate at that time. It is true that there are many inconveniences in raising horses in the capital. Then the edict will be canceled.

But the matter reached Chen Xiang's ears, and he was furious when he heard it. What's the matter, we are all reformers, we are all new parties, why are you dismantling my platform? If it is inconvenient, is it inconvenient for Shaanxi Road and Hebei Road, or inconvenient! Isn't this to solve the shortcomings of the country's lack of horses, although the people have inconveniences, for the sake of the country's long-term plan, this inconvenience must be endured.

Therefore, he found Yu Shi Shu Yan and instigated it, and Shu Yan wrote to impeach Xue Xiang: Xue Shi is a minister, and he has to show his face when there is something, and he slanders him for stealing his name.

These concerts are all archived, Zhao Ji asked Huangmen to find Xue Xiang's recitals, and he was also furious after reading it, if it is really inconvenient, say it to his face, he can change his mistakes, and it is very good. Besides, you are a dignified deputy prime minister, what can't you say! However, you are hiding it in front of you, but you are nagging behind your back, what kind of behavior is this, is it still a dignified deputy prime minister of Xifu?

So there was this annotation and edict.

However, this edict was only a draft edict, and it could only become a real edict after it was approved and copied by the Hanlin scholars or the intellectuals.

Zhao Ji was about to send the edict to the Hanlin Academy, and there was an urgent report from the Yellow Gate to Shaanzhou outside.

"Spread, pass, pass on all the officials of the two governments, the two systems, the three divisions, the Sinong Temple, and the Yushitai to come to Yanhe Hall to discuss matters." Zhao Ji was so angry that he trembled when he saw it.

If this happened in the Tang Dynasty, it would be fine, there were assassins who publicly assassinated the prime minister, Wu Yuanheng was directly killed, and the other prime minister, Pei Du, almost met the king of Yama. But that was the chaos of the late Tang Dynasty, when the country was in decline.

Now that Lang Lang is in the middle of the country, there is actually a stabbing case, what does it mean? Zhao Ji's head was about to explode.

The ministers arrived at the Yanhe Hall one after another.

Zhao Ji shouted to Xiao Huangmen: "Read." ”

The little yellow goalkeeper recited Shaanzhou's urgency.

The ministers were also dumbfounded.

An Tao, the eastern official of the Zhiju Yuan, whispered: "Could it be a bitter meat plan?" ”

Since Xining's change of law, no matter how you fight and how you fight, no one will assassinate you, and once this head is opened, everyone will worry about their lives. But on the contrary, Wang Ju can be said to be the most fearless high-ranking official in the Great Song Dynasty, and Li Shidao (the envoy of the Ziqing Festival, the culprit of the Yuan and assassination cases, in addition to burning warehouses and other behaviors, it can be said that Bradden in the Yuan and Yuan era of the Tang Dynasty) is far from it.

There are really many ministers who believe this.

Wang Jue was very displeased when he heard it in front, and said: "An Houqing, the imperial court edict uses Prince An as the governor of the government, and you have always thought it is inappropriate. Whether it is appropriate or not, it needs to be discussed, but how can it be said that the knife and arrow have no eyes, the fierce bandits in front of him block the road, and the mountains and forests on both sides are shot with arrows. ”

If you simply use a knife, it's better to say that Guan Jian used a bow and arrow at that time, and under the random arrows, even Yang Zaixing's martial arts were shot to death. What kind of martial arts does Wang Ju have, at most, he is stronger and stronger than ordinary soldiers, but can he say that he is brave and champion of the three armies?

Therefore, An Tao's statement is not valid.

Zhao Ji was even more angry and said, "An Qing, what did you say?" ”

An Tao was interested, and immediately said: "The minister said wrong. ”

"Hmph," Zhao Ji continued to walk around angrily, and then threw a large number of impeachment pieces against Wang Ju from the table to the bottom of the steps, and shouted: "What did Wang Qing do, is it because he did not form a party with you, so he has become a thorn in your eye, and he will be removed quickly!" ”

This sentence also has a history.

Wang Jue proposed that Wang Ju be appointed as the governor, but many people opposed it at that time.

Lao Wang said something.

Wang Ju's martial arts don't need to be mentioned, but is Wang Juchang really good at martial arts?

Let's look at Gyeongju, and look at Quanzhou. Let's look at Quang Nam.

For example, Yanghu and Lu Xun. They all have achievements in martial arts. Maybe they are simply military generals?

There is another person, Zhuge Liang, who captured Meng Shu seven times and came out of Qishan six times, it seems that he has been fighting for the rest of his life, and he may regard Zhuge Liang as a military general?

But that's what Lao Wang said, and it still didn't work.

But everyone underestimated Lao Wang, and on the surface, Lao Wang was very weak. However, Lao Wang served as the Zhiji Xianyuan from the Qing Dynasty, and then served as the Zhizhi Edict, the Hanlin Bachelor, the Zhikaifeng Mansion, the Governor of the Political Affairs and the Prime Minister of the Dynasty.

For more than thirty years, I haven't left the capital, look at the top ministers of the Song Dynasty, how many people have done it?

So in the face of opposition, Lao Wang found an opportunity and said a few words to Zhao Ji.

The first sentence is, Your Majesty, everyone thinks that the king is a huge envoy of the privy council, but the old minister does not quite understand. Did the imperial court award Wang Ju's privy deputy envoy for the merit of civil governance, or did it award Wang Ju's privy deputy envoy for martial arts?

That's a little better.

The key is the second sentence. Who did Wang Ju gang up with?

What kind of minister is best for a wise man? Good ministers and generals, NO, that person is not afraid of the minister's high merits?

Loyal ministers, so what exactly is loyalty and what is treachery?

Just like Zhang Dan, in history, he was recorded in the annals of history as a traitor of the Song Dynasty, but Zhang Duan was really a traitor? Or Han Qi, who was a famous loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty, but Han Qi's various actions in his later years can be regarded as a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty?

Xuchen, first of all, as a human king, does he have a big belly, and then how many Yanchen have reached the height of Wei Zheng?

Trusted ministers? Take a look at the three closest ministers, Yi Ya, Kai Fang, and Ji Diao......

Therefore, the above kinds of courtiers may not be liked by a wise person, and there is only one kind of minister who really likes, a lonely minister!

In addition, everyone ignores another kind of relationship, including Wang Ju himself, that is, the friendship formed when he was a teenager.

Maybe Zhao Ji has grown up and has some of his ideas, such as Wang Ju's most disgusting dissenting opinions. However, with Wang Ju's arrogant practices, if it weren't for Zhao Ji's protection, Wang Ju would have been sad a long time ago. But this point is that Wang Ju has not yet noticed it.

Coupled with Lao Wang's two sentences, Zhao Ji finally ignored everyone's opposition and forcibly gave the order.

Today, Zhao Ji was furious, and finally translated Lao Wang's second sentence. Lao Wang said very implicitly, forming a gang is actually a party!

Of course, Lao Wang said this sentence with two intentions, one is to persuade Zhao Ji, and the other is to show merit to Zhao Ji, we did not form a gang, we belong to the category of lonely ministers, so the emperor, you have to rest assured that you use me......

Lao Wang knows behind this scene, but who do the other ministers know?

When Zhao Ji said this, it would be too damning.

Although the court competition has become relatively moderate now, how many ministers have not taken sides?

And many people don't believe Ahn Tao's words either.

Let's just say that the case in Yizheng County is actually the same as the case of Chen Shiru's wife killing his mother, do you still need to check it, you can see it when you look at the watch.

Zhao Ji insisted on letting Wang Ju serve as the governor, which made some people very unhappy, so he sent someone to secretly write a rap book, and then spread it around, and finally let the people of the world talk about it, forming a general trend, and then impeached in one fell swoop, Wang Ju will inevitably leave the court.

Who would have thought that Wang Ju made a detour to Qiongzhou, just heard this rap, and saw the greed of several Xu officials, but the victim Li Laohan's son died on the battlefield, and the compensation was unfair, and the three things collided together, so Wang Ju was angry and tempted Xu officials, and finally killed people.

Wang Ju's kind of "villain" style of killing people with knives at every turn, and this kind of "villain" style that will be retribution, makes many scholars and doctors dislike it.

But at the end of the day, someone made the first move.

It's a big case, and the emperor sent people from the Imperial City Division to check around, so you can't use the rap book to scandalize Wang Ju anymore, so it's hard to find out if someone really buys the mountain bandits, assassinates Wang Ju, and solves this thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh once and for all.

There is also the location of the crime.

It turned out that Luoyang Taishou was Zhao Ji's earliest teacher Wang Tao, this person had no grudges with Wang Ju, and even on the contrary, he had always admired Wang Ju.

However, after the autumn festival, the imperial court decreed that the envoy of the Hedong Festival, the Taishi of the inspection school, the Shou Situ, and the servant of the middle, the judgment of the Daimyofu, the Luguo Gongwen Yanbo Shou Taiwei, and the Kaifu Yitong three divisions, according to the former Hedong Jiedu envoy, sentenced to Henan Mansion.

Wen Yanbo's official positions are more than these, if they are written out one by one, there are more than a dozen, but these Tai Lieutenant, Kaifu Yi and the three divisions and a few knots make it not to take it seriously, of course, these official positions also have many benefits, first of all, the salary, so many top official positions are superimposed, so that Wen Yanbo's salary can reach the height of making future generations kneel and admire, and they are also an honorary position. But there is only one person who really exercises real power, and he is sentenced to Henan Mansion, that is, Luoyang Taishou.

With Wen Yanbo's strength, he has real power in his hands, and it is too easy to make some small moves in Luoyang.

And Wen Yanbo also has motives, let's not mention any party disputes, just talk about his grievances with Wang Ju, which can be said to be a handful of blood and tears.

So now everyone feels that the truth is confusing,

At this moment, they heard Zhao Ji say another thunderbolt-like word: "Li Ding, Yang Sui, the two of you will take the three generals and officials to Kunshan to arrest these bold mountain bandits one by one." ”

Yang Sui is the deputy commander in front of the palace, Li Ding is the middle of the imperial history, and the imperial history platform is also in charge of major cases, so there is absolutely no problem for these two people to go to Luoyang to arrest the mountain bandits.

But is there really no problem?

First of all, Yang Sui, he is a military general, and Wang Ju's status in the hearts of military generals can be imagined.

It doesn't matter, Guan Jian is Li Ding.

It doesn't matter to Li Ding, Guan Jian Luoyang is not only Wen Yanbo, but also a large group of people, Fu Bi, Sima Guang, Wang Gongchen, Chu Jianzhong, Liu Ji......

Think about how many people were implicated in a Wutai poetry case. Besides, this assassination of the prime minister! (To be continued.) )
