Chapter 281 Hunting and Pastoring the Southeast
The ministers looked in the voice, but the one who spoke was Wang Xiabai, the chief minister of the palace.
Li Zongmian's face looked a little ugly. The Palace Chief is only a fifth-rank official rank, and he is not much different from the status of the left prime minister. Now he dares to directly refute his words on such occasions. To put it nicely, it is for state affairs, but to put it nicely, it is not taking him, the left prime minister seriously.
The clay man is still very angry, not to mention Li Zongmian, who is already the left prime minister.
The former Minister of Rites Quan Shaoan and Privy Councillor Lian Zezhi argued why the ministers and Zhao Yun did not have too many surprises. After all, the butts of both sides were different in different directions, but only Wang Xiabai, the chief minister of the hall who was not visible on weekdays and could not see the position at all, suddenly emerged at this time, and he directly called the left prime minister Li Zongmian as soon as he came out, but the ministers in the hall were a little confused about the situation.
Even if Li Zongmian does not have much power in the court, it is not something that Wang Xiabai, a small palace chief, can tell? It is not that Wang Xiabai's mind is in trouble, or he is fearless.
Zhao Yun was obviously a little surprised that Wang Xiabai had left the list and frowned slightly and said, "Can there be someone more suitable for Wang Qing's family to recommend it?"
It is personal that Zhao Yun was impatient at this moment. That's right, Wang Xiabai suddenly appeared, which made Zhao Yun feel a bad premonition. He originally had already made the worst plan, but unexpectedly, things seemed to be moving in a more unfavorable direction than expected.
"Returning to the emperor's words, I think that Taichang Qing Zhong Buli is loyal to the country and is diligent and can share his worries with the emperor."
The people recommended by Wang Xiabai once again stunned everyone in the hall, including Zhao Yun.
Taichangqing was from the third rank, and although he was of high power, he did not pay attention to it. He was naturally much inferior to Dali Temple. As for Taichangqing Zhong Buli, he was also considered an old minister in the court. It was enough to be the prefect of Jiankang based on qualifications. However, from Taichangqing to Jiankang Prefect, this was simply unrelated. Who doesn’t know what Taichang Temple does? Jiankang Prefecture has to manage the livelihood of millions of people in Jiankang Prefecture. How could divination be solved?
The water is getting more and more muddy.
Jia Sidao rubbed his head helplessly.
Whether it is Wang Xiabai or Zhong Buli, Suli rarely reveals obvious factions in the court. Of course, the positions of the two of them are really not worthy. Even if they stand in a team, they have no weight. It is not as good as appearing at some critical moments, but they can play an unexpected role, just like now.
However, Jia Sidao vaguely understood that Wang Xiabai and Zhong Buli, if they expected, should be secretly buried by those in the royal family.
I just don’t know if it’s Zhao Shimi’s three descendants or the princes in the royal family. Or, the three descendants and the other princes have joined forces?
It seems that the people in the royal family still have to be defeated!
The haze in Zhao Yun's eyes became even stronger. He waved his hand to let Wang Xiabai retreat, and said softly: "Do you guys have other candidates?...If not, then what if I have one?"
After hearing this, the ministers in the palace realized that the emperor had already had a choice in his heart, and probably had a different arrangement, but at this moment, he seemed to have no patience and wanted to click it out in person.
I just don’t know who the emperor wants.
"I think it's very good at the Censor Zheng Junzhi, what do you think?"
Zheng Junzhi, former left prime minister, and the youngest brother of Zheng Qingzhi, the Duke of Shen State!
The ministers in the palace kept swimming on Shi Songzhi and Jia Sidao.
"The wise and wise! The old minister thinks that Lord Zheng... is enough to take on this important task!"
Sure enough, Zhao Yun finished speaking, and Shi Songzhi kept bowing his eyebrows and said loudly.
"The Holy Spirit!"
"The Holy Spirit!"
...
As Shi Songzhi spoke, the members of the Privy Council and ministers who had some relationship with the Shi clan bowed and shouted.
When things have reached this point, no one knows that Zhao Yun, Zheng Qingzhi, Shi Songzhi and others have already prepared the candidates. However, for some reason, no one has ever spoken out to recommend Zheng Junzhi before.
"Old minister agrees!"
When the hall was quiet, the left prime minister Li Zongmian spoke again at the right time.
"The Holy Spirit!"
What was surprising was that Li Zongmian immediately spoke out that it was not Xie Jue or Jia Sidao, but Yuan Fu, Du Fan and Zheng Xingzhi from the Neo-Confucian school.
Wasn’t it just that the Neo-Confucian school and the clan members joined forces to take the position of censorship? At this time, the clan had already introduced the two secrets that had been buried after finally. Why did the Neo-Confucian school turn against each other at this time?
Although Xie Jubo and Jia Sidao have not spoken yet, the ministers knew that they didn’t have to consider whether they agreed or not. Even if they didn’t agree at this time, it would be a foregone conclusion that Zheng Junzhi would be the prefect of Jiankang.
However, it is no longer important to think about this at this time. What is important is that all the ministers knew that this time, the royal family and the Neo-Confucian faction joined forces to attack Zhao Yun and caught him off guard, but they lost their wife and soldiers, and they could not get anything.
Originally, the emperor was a little wary of the Shi family, worried that Shi Songzhi would follow the old path of Shi Miyuan. This is also the main reason why Zhao Yun expelled Zheng Qingzhi and Shi Songzhi from the court after failing to enter Luo.
However, now it seems that things have begun to change. The emperor obviously has the idea of reusing the Shi family again.
Is the reason...
It seems that there will be no other reason except for Jia Guojiu who has never said a word in the court but has never dared to underestimate anyone.
Jia Sidao's rise seems inevitable, and this also allows Zhao Yun to finally let go and borrow the power of the Shi clan without having to worry about being dominated by the Shi clan.
As for the Neo-Confucian school... Originally, Zhao Yun didn't know that Neo-Confucian school, the clan family and Sixiu Wang Zhao Shimi had been hooking up, but Neo-Confucian school was just a school, not a group of bureaucrats. They just wanted to make Neo-Confucian school the orthodox of the Song Dynasty, and that's all. In addition, Zhao Yun also liked the things advocated by Neo-Confucian school, so he turned a blind eye.
However, today, the betrayal of Yuan Fu and others made Zhao Yun hate it from the bottom of his heart. Therefore, he did not take the Neo-Confucian school seriously at all. After all, Neo-Confucian school is different from the Shi family and the clan family. Without his support, he was suppressed by Shi Miyuan for so many years and had a quarrel with Shi Songzhi. He really couldn't cause much storm.
As for Shi Songzhi, since he chose to follow him, it means that there is no possibility of joining forces with those members of the clan again. Unless there is a huge benefit that will allow them to let go of their current conflicts.
The great benefit... what else can it be if the throne comes out? But Zhao Wei is lively and the prince has decided that unless Shi Songzhi's head is clamped by the door, he will definitely not do such a thankless thing.
Not to mention, there is Jia Sidao.
"Since all the officials think that Zheng Junzhi can take on this important task, then I will issue an order to promote Zheng Junzhi as the prefect of Jiankang, and set up deputy envoy along the river to take over the affairs of Jiankang Prefecture."
The haze on Zhao Yun's face disappeared. Although the beginning of today caught him off guard, he still won the final result. And it was the most comfortable and relaxing win over the years.
"I will obey the order!"
After Zhao Yun's order was issued, the ministers naturally did not dare to say anything more and bowed to their orders.
After everything was over, Zhao Yun suddenly stopped his eyes on Xie Jubo, who had not spoken.
Xie Jubo seemed to feel something, and stepped forward and said, "I have a good job of reporting!"
"Speak!"
Zhao Yun turned around and returned to the dragon throne to sit down, and said with a smile.
Xie Jubo's sudden action made the ministers in the hall who were ready to go to court again. Is there anything else that has not yet been done today?
"Former Right Prime Minister, Guangdong Pacifier, Mr. Cui, has passed away for a long time. Your Majesty is compassionate and has been plagued by political affairs. He has never ordered the Ministry of Personnel to make arrangements for the position of Guangdong Pacifier. Old Memorials think it is very inappropriate. Guangdong and other places are the confidant places of our Song Dynasty. If any accidents are caused by the turmoil in the southeast and southwest of our Song Dynasty, I beg Your Majesty to make a decision as soon as possible, and to ensure the hearts of millions of soldiers and civilians in Guangdong with the spirit of An and Cui in heaven."
Hearing this, the ministers finally understood. They thought they were just discussing the positions of the Censor and the Prefect of Jiankang. Now it seems that the emperor has left a hand and has long focused on the position of Guangdong Pacifier.
In this way, the position of Guangdong's pacifier would definitely not fall into the hands of Cui Yuzhi's disciples? The ministers' eyes involuntarily glanced at the Minister of Works You Si, the Imperial Academy doctor Li Maoying and other dozens of officials who had never made a sound.
You Si, Li Maoying and others are all disciples of Cui Yuzhi.
"If Xie Qing didn't say it, I would have forgotten it. Today, Xie Qing mentioned it, is it that there is a candidate in his heart?" Zhao Yun touched his chin and said meaningfully.
"I think Mr. Jia, the prefect of Lin'an, has made contributions to the country. Although he is young, he has repeatedly led the court to the tide and has extraordinary talent. He can take this important task! I strongly recommend Mr. Jia to make the national economy and people's livelihood, and take on this important task. He is the emperor who is the emperor who is willing to hunt for the southeastern areas!"
Xie Jujiu said loudly with his fists.
After Xie Ju reported the words, the ministers in the palace who heard these words were immediately in an uproar. Everyone couldn't understand what Xie Jubo's move was for. Could it be that the queen and Concubine Jia were really just a match for their appearance?
Even Shi Songzhi, who had always felt that everything was under control, changed color instantly when he heard Xie Ju's report, and suddenly turned his head and looked bright.
