Chapter 57 This is unbearable!

When riding in a carriage, the servant waved the whip and exploded in the air: "Get up, I'll go to court!"

The servants standing under the eaves said together: "Great me, Master!"

Ouyang Bian couldn't help but cover his face. He hadn't experienced this for a long time, and he was really not used to it. He felt very ashamed.

The carriage turned around and came to Yu Street. In the darkness, there were already many carriages hanging on Yu Street with lanterns, and the owner's surname was hanging on the lanterns.

On this road, we usually don’t say hello, and everyone stays in the car and keeps resting. Even those who attend court every day will never get used to getting up so early. Most of them are still drowsy when they wake up, so no one is willing to say hello to others, and no one is willing to say hello to them.

Who is not angry yet?

I don’t want others to disturb me because I want to take a rest and don’t take the initiative to say hello to others. I’m really afraid of hitting someone else’s gun.

This is also good, Ouyang Bian doesn't have to say hello to others.

In the Song Dynasty, there was not only one dynasty meeting every morning, but two dynasty meetings were held at the same time.

One often attends Wende Hall, and the other is Chugong Hall to live in the morning.

What Ouyang Bian wants to participate in is the morning living in the Chuigong Hall.

This court meeting is the truly important court meeting, and the Wende Hall Changchao is actually a false description.

Because the interests of the Song Dynasty followed the Tang Dynasty and made some new developments.

The Song Dynasty dynasty meeting was divided into two major contents: obedience and etiquette. The dynasty meeting was a set of ceremonial activities by officials to worship the monarch. The dynasty meeting system in the early Northern Song Dynasty added some new content on the basis of the combination of the Tang and Five Dynasties systems, which caused duplication of system design.

That's why two dynasties are in progress at the same time.

Both dynasties need the priest to be present, because the dynasty meeting of the Chuigong Hall is more important, so the dynasty meeting of the Wende Hall can only be a formality.

Ouyang Bian came outside the Chuigong Hall to wait. He came early, perhaps because he was a little excited to go to work on the first day after returning from Qingzhou.

But others have arrived one after another.

Although Ouyang Bian's official position is considered a crane at the morning court in this Chuigong Hall, it is ranked first in terms of popularity and power.

Needless to say, Ouyang Xiu's son, the priest of the bold school, one of the reform leaders, and the celebrity in front of the emperor may be the richest person in the Song Dynasty. Even if these titles are just one of them, they may not be famous all over the world, but officials who can enter the court meeting will definitely know him.

So Ouyang Bian had no chance to put down his crossed hand, and his smile seemed to be on his face, but he already felt that his face was a little stiff.

Fortunately, there are not many people qualified to attend court, and there are only dozens of people who can do it.

Not only did Ouyang Bian's face become stiff, but his eyelids were also sagging. Young people were more energetic, but they were more persistent in sleep.

In fact, not only Ouyang Bian is like this, but the fatigue on the faces of others and the tone of speaking when they open their mouths, they know that they are not really awake yet.

Civil officials have been spurring the emperor to be a wise ruler and a diligent emperor, but when the emperor is really diligent, they will complain again.

The system of rulership in the Song Dynasty was established by Taizu, Taizong, and Zhenzong was implemented. Renzong and Yingzong did not strictly implement it because the empress dowager ruled behind the curtain and his health. However, Zhao Xu was different. He was energetic and diligent than Taizu, Taizong, Zhenzong, Renzong and Yingzong. Since he became ruled, he has not been absent for a day.

Moreover, even when Zhao Xu didn't need to attend court, such as ten days, holidays, and holidays, he still insisted on attending court.

This made Ouyang Bian secretly complain that it was because Zhao Xu, who had been criticized by ministers for not being diligent enough since childhood, insisted on going to court, which was actually a retaliatory act.

Humph, don’t you like to criticize the emperor for not being diligent enough? Then I will be diligent to the extreme, leaving you with nothing to say!

However, this kind of complaint is just a kind of complaint, because Zhao Xu really likes it.

According to historical records, from the beginning of Zhao Xu's ascension to his death, he would suspend the court meeting except when he was really sick and was overly sad because of his premature death. The rest of the time was really indispensable for a day.

This is a real workaholic.

The key is that the work intensity of the court meeting in Chuigong Hall is very high, and sometimes it cannot be reported in the morning. You have to continue the discussion after dinner in the palace. Only after the discussion is over will you go back to your respective office office.

But this was not enough for Zhao Xu. He not only participated in the court meeting from beginning to end, but also continued to receive officials who could not attend the court meeting to get more information.

Although civil servants complained in private, they would not really say it out.

Not long after, the gate of the Chuigong Hall opened, and all officials entered one after another according to their official ranks. Ouyang Bian naturally hung the rear of the car. But it was good that he had just returned and did not understand enough about the matter in the Regulation Department of the Three Divisions, so it is better not to speak.

Listening to Han Qi and others reporting on work, Ouyang Bian closed his eyes slightly, as if he was back when he was a daily official many years ago. At that time, he also listened to the ministers reporting on major events in the world, and then thought or complained, gaining a lot of experience from it.

However, over the years, the faces of all officials have been constantly changing. Some old faces have gradually disappeared, and some new faces have been added. It is also funny to say that Ouyang Bian is young, but he is only in his early twenties, but he is actually a veteran of three dynasties.

Ouyang Bian just came back. He wanted to live a low-key life first and develop in a secret way. But this has always been the case with the world. Whatever you are afraid of will come.

After reporting on some executives, Han Qi launched a war.

Of course, the finger was not directed at Ouyang Bian. Ouyang Bian has just returned and has not done anything yet, nor has there been any mistakes worth criticizing.

Han Qi's spearhead was directed at the Regulations of the Three Divisions.

Han Qi believed that although the three ministers and officials were in charge of the regulations, they were ultimately decided. If they were not in charge of the Zhongshu, the Privy Council, and did not obey the imperial edict, they could directly implement it. In this case, there was another Zhongshu outside the Zhongshu.

Moreover, the Registration Department gathered some young officials who were innocent and had no choice but to be profitable. They changed the old rules of their ancestors, which was simply a misleading people and harming the country!

Hearing these accusations, Ouyang Bian couldn't help but lower his head and smile bitterly, saying that he had also scolded him.

The so-called young officials who are weak but do nothing but know how to speak and profit are not just Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu and others, but also include his own.

Although Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu and others were his same year, many of their thoughts followed his theories!

It can be said that criticizing them is criticizing Ouyang Bian.

This is unbearable!
