Chapter 284 Unpunishable(1/3)
After considering it for a moment, the two palaces agreed to Zhang Kai's appointment.
But before making an appointment, you still have to go through the process.
So, the Empress Dowager asked: "What position does Zhang Qi hold now?"
Han Jiang replied: "I know the Ci Sage, Zhang Kai now has the authority to know the Qin Feng Road Strategy and appease the envoy..."
He handled this matter personally.
Thinking like this, Han Jiang couldn't help but take a deep look at the young official sitting on the throne.
"When the officials sent someone to hint to me, I'm afraid they already had the idea of making great use of Zhang Kai..."
"It's just, how did Zhang Kai get favored by an official?"
What a problem!
Zhang Kai, every time he came to Beijing, he would come in a hurry and then leave in a hurry.
Moreover, this person is very old.
When he passed the Jinshi examination in the second year of Zhiping, he was almost forty years old, and he is sixty-one this year.
He has been an official in Hubei, Jingdong, Chengdu and other places all his life. Although his official reputation is very good, he is only famous in the prefecture and county.
"Is it really Lu Dafang's recommendation and praise in front of officials?"
Han Jiang felt that this was the only possibility.
After all, Lu Dafang worked with Zhang Kai in Chengdu.
After Lu Dafang entered the capital, he kept praising Zhang Kai and praised him to everyone he met - "Zhang Zhifu is the minister of the country and the most talented person in the world's economy!"
Isn't this just like when he and Han Wei and Han Zhen praised Wang Anshi in front of the late emperor every day?
However, after discussing with the Empress Dowager Xiang for a while, the Empress Dowager made a decision: "If you ministers have no objections, just follow the official orders!"
"Wei!" Naturally, the governors had no objection.
The emperor proposes a candidate for a commander-in-chief, as long as the person's reputation is not so bad that his reputation is so bad, or his ability is so bad that it is known to the whole world.
The rulers can only obey.
So, the play continued.
Lu Gong wrote a memorial, please go to Wenguyuan, and the authority to annotate and authorize it was given to Zhongshu by the inspector of the inspection hall.
This is actually what the two palaces hinted him to do.
The reason was that there were too many trivial matters and the two palaces were too busy to deal with them, so they simply delegated some of the power of appointment and dismissal of less important personnel to Zhongshu.
The minister Zhang Xunze reported that Lin Ya, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom congratulating him on his enthronement, Yelv Bai, the envoy of the Chongyi Army, the deputy envoy to the imperial court, and Niu Wenru, the Shaoqing of Shou Chonglu who served as the editor of the History Museum, etc., brought congratulatory gifts from the leader of the Liao Kingdom.
To congratulate you.
In addition, the emperor's grandson of the Liao Dynasty sent Yelu Gu, a Hanlin scholar, to serve as the envoy to thank the emperor's brother in the Southern Dynasty for presenting letters, and Zhao Xiaoyan, a privy scholar, served as his deputy.
He also sent two volumes of reading notes by the grandson of the Emperor of Liao Dynasty, thinking it would be a good idea for the whole family.
When the two palaces heard about it, they were very happy.
The friendship between Song and Liao means that there will be no trouble in Hebei, and if there is no trouble in Hebei, the world will be at peace.
Zhao Xu even asked: "Where is my book about the emperor's younger brother of the Liao Kingdom?"
Zhang Hong paid his respects and said: "When the Northern Envoy sees you, you should respectfully present him to your Majesty!"
"Good!" Zhao Xu nodded with satisfaction.
Zhao Xu has boundless love for his dear imperial brother.
Can you find a better 'brother' than Yelu Yanxi?
Bei Tianzuo and Nan Huiqin are both known as friends of Dajin!
So, Zhao Xu smiled and said: "I am also planning to give some reading notes to the emperor's brother..."
He even wanted to tell the emperor's younger brother - if you don't understand anything, you can come to Bianjing and ask me!
The ministers congratulated each other repeatedly and felt that if the current development continues, it is not a dream for Song and Liao to continue to have peace for a hundred years.
The Prime Minister of Dongfu has finished his work and is about to retire.
But at this moment, the Empress Dowager said: "Everyone, please stay!"
The officials were stunned for a moment.
"But there is something that needs to be discussed with all the ministers..." The Queen Mother said calmly: "A few days ago, the imperial censor Liu Zhi impeached the Kaifeng Mansion. You ministers should have heard about it.
Alright?"
Han Jiang held his hand and said: "I have heard a little bit about it!"
The expressions of other prime ministers all became amused at this time.
The struggle for power between the Ancestral Temple, Dali Temple and Kaifeng Prefecture was originally just a small matter.
But the sudden intervention of Yushitai stirred up the turmoil between the government and the opposition.
Subsequently, the two palaces issued an edict, ordering the capital hall to select ministers for review, which caused the matter to attract many people's attention.
After the investigation results came out, the two palaces went to the Yushitai to discuss how to deal with monk Huixin.
It makes people think that this matter ends here.
After all, Seng Lusi has already declined.
Even Kaifeng Mansion seemed to have been summoned to the palace by officials yesterday to be reprimanded.
The only problem left is how to deal with Monk Huixin.
Everything has been settled.
But why did the two palaces suddenly mention this matter again at this time?
Could it be that things have changed that no one knows about?
While everyone was thinking, they heard the Empress Dowager say: "This matter needs to be discussed with all the ministers..."
As she said this, the Empress Dowager clapped her hands.
Liang Weijian, who had been serving in the curtain, walked out of the curtain with the imperial censor's bullets that had been transcribed, and distributed them to the Prime Minister of Dongfu present.
The four prime ministers took the bullets, sat down again, and began to read.
The Empress Dowager continued: "Everyone of you, the imperial censors, heard that the report was made by the ancestors. I should not say more about it..."
"However, this Censor's courage is too great!"
"How dare you use words to spy on me and the Queen Mother..."
Everyone's eardrums began to tremble.
Spying on the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother?
Who!
How dare you do such a taboo thing?
"I don't want to pursue the case. After all, maybe the censor used the wrong words and didn't know the taboo, or maybe he was just out of loyalty..."
"However, he pushed even further!"
"I and the Queen Mother clearly issued an edict to ask the censor to discuss the treatment of Monk Hui Xin...but he...is pestering the Kaifeng Mansion!"
"Blatantly disobeying the will of me and the Queen Mother..."
"I don't quite understand..." The Empress Dowager sighed: "I and the Queen Mother seem to be so easy to deceive and mislead?"
Although the voice was light, it was like thunder, shaking the entire hall.
For a moment, everyone in the palace held their breath and concentrated.
They all looked at the copies of the bullets in their hands.
To be honest, Liu Zhi's first bullet book only has some flaws in the text, or it may be said that it is overconfident.
At least in the eyes of these rulers.
Because the censors of the Song Dynasty were so out of touch when impeaching ministers.
It is just to impeach a minister, not to admonish the emperor or impeach a clan relative.
There won’t be much care about the text.
Most of the time, in order to rush the work and grab time, it is not even polished properly.
However, Liu Zhi's second magazine is really a problem.
The two palaces asked him to discuss how to deal with Monk Huixin, but he insisted on the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion, and even went so far as to blame Kaifeng Mansion.
It is both deceiving and cheating.
The problem is big! Very big!
To be continued...
