Prime Minister

Chapter 380
After Zhang Yue heard Han Qi's words, he also thought a little bit.

I have lived in a peaceful and prosperous world for a long time, and I have somewhat forgotten the hardships of the regime change, especially for Zhao Song who won the world with the addition of a yellow robe, this matter is not far away.

During the mutiny in Chenqiao, Prime Minister Fan Zhi led Wang Pu, Wei Renpu and others to ask Zhao Kuangyin why he rebelled.

As a result, Luo Yanyu drew his sword in front of Zhao Kuangyi's tent and said sharply: "I have no master in my life, today I will win the emperor!"

When several prime ministers saw Bingren, their faces turned pale with fright, they immediately bowed down and recognized Zhao Kuangyin as the emperor.

Emperor Taizong commented on Fan Zhi and said with a smile that among Zaifu, he was able to follow the rules, be cautious about his reputation, and maintain integrity, and there was no one who was right.But it's a pity to owe Sejong his death.

Can this be blamed on Fan Zhi?

In the face of war, the dignified prime minister is no different from a native chicken, and the vulnerability of the civil service group is undoubtedly exposed when the regime changes.

At this time, with military power in hand, words have weight.

After this incident, the prime minister is not as useful as a warrior.

But think about why there was a mutiny in Chenqiao?It's just that the master, the young and the mother are weak, and the ministers such as Fan Zhi are not serious, and there are no powerful figures in the court, so Zhao Kuangyin, who holds military power, cannot be controlled.

What's the use of Fan Zhi's 1 regrets afterwards.

Fortunately, he met Zhao Kuangyin, otherwise the change of any dynasty would not be bloody.

After listening to Han Qi's words, Zhang Yue agreed with three points, and obeyed seven points: "As Xianggong said, when the country is in turmoil, the reserve position has not yet been established, and a strong prime minister is needed to sit in the center. Early establishment of the crown prince can reduce the burden on the country. When the board is swaying, the danger of replacement."

Han Qi laughed loudly when he heard the words: "I have been heart-to-heart with Du Zhi all night, and I just got what you said. It's really rare."

At this time, a cadre came in and had a few words with Han Qi.

Han Qi smiled and said: "The old man has roasted some mutton at home, why don't you chat with me while eating."

Zhang Yue said: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Immediately, Han Qi and Zhang Yue got up and went to the banquet hall. A charcoal fire was being lit in the center of the banquet hall, and a cook was turning over the roast mutton.

At this time, the mutton has just been roasted, and it is the time when the aroma is overflowing.

Zhang Yue suddenly felt hungry again.

Han Qi ordered the cook to take a knife to cut a piece of sheep tail oil and pass it to Zhang Yue.Zhang Yue directly took the roasted mutton with his hands and put it into his mouth. His mouth was full of oil, and he took a sip of wine.

After reading the chapter, Han Qi ate with gusto, and took a piece of fat off the back of a sheep by himself and put it in his mouth.

Zhang Yue was not afraid that the mutton would stain his robes, so he ate meat in big mouthfuls, paying attention to his willfulness.As for Han Qi's movements, he was more refined, cutting the mutton into moderate sizes, not wanting the fat to stain his beard.

Han Qi signaled the cook to step back and said slowly, "After Du Zhi enters the Sutra banquet, if you can persuade His Majesty to establish a reserve, I will owe you a favor. What do you think of this proposal?"

Zhang Yue asked back: "Master, if you dare to ask about the establishment of the crown prince, does Empress Cao object?"

Han Qi said: "To tell you the truth, Empress Cao is between two things, but Mr. Fu is afraid that I will have the merits of making a plan, so he repeatedly pushes this matter in front of Empress Cao."

Zhang Yue listened to his heart and said, it really is Rashomon, and each person has one explanation.

Zhang Yue said: "Sima Jun has served me for a long time. Why didn't Mr. Han look for him but for me?"

Han Qi had no words.

"Duzhi, it's okay if you don't want to belong to the old man, after all, Ou Gong is also in Zhongshu, and I am also a family." Han Qi said.

Zhang Yue saw Han Qi saying this: "Mr. Han, this matter is for the public and not private. I must persuade Your Majesty to establish a crown prince early. Mr. Han doesn't need to mention the matter of favor, let alone which prince is beyond my control." In other words."

Han Qi smiled and said, "Du Zhi is a gentleman, since you say so, I believe you."

After the official family recovered from illness, Zhang Yue resumed his service at the Jingyan House.

On this day, an oral official will come to the Jing Banquet Hall in person. It happens that Sima Guang is giving a lecture, and Zhang Yue is accompanying him in the Jing Banquet Hall.It was very pleasant for Zhang Yue and Sima Guang to sit and chat together.

At this time, an official came to the banquet hall and said: "I have seen Bachelor Sima, I wonder if I can take a step to speak."

Sima Guang said to Zhang Yue, please stay with him, walked behind the screen and exchanged a few words with him, after a while he left.

Zhang Yue didn't ask any questions, but Sima Guang took the initiative to say: "This person is a disciple of Zhongshu, Han Xianggong's confidant."

Zhang Yue remembered that he was at Han Qi's residence a few days ago, and asked himself if Han Qi had looked for Sima Guang?
At this moment, Sima Guang suddenly said with emotion: "I wait for the ministers to speak out for the king, the way, and the truth, so how can we be for Zhongshu?"

Zhang Yue thought to himself, no need to guess, it must be Sima Guang who also rejected Han Qi's solicitation.

Of course, Sima Guang refused the prime minister's invitation. This move can be described as very noble, but why should he tell himself that it is noble?It seems that Sima Guang has the habit of keeping diaries, but later these diaries are unavoidably and unexpectedly made public.

Sima Guang said to Zhang Yue: "If you have something fierce to say when you face the king, don't be surprised."

Zhang Yue thought, what is Sima Guang going to do?Is it a big move today?
At this time, the royal driver of the official family has arrived at Youying Pavilion.

After the official sat down, he was not very happy and said: "I don't want to lecture today, so the two gentlemen have a chat with me."

Sima Guang said: "I don't know why Your Majesty is bothered?"

The official said: "Today, at the right time, Fan Zhen's words are radical, and I am not very happy."

Sima Guang said: "Your Majesty is aware of this matter. I met Fan Zhen a few days ago, and he said that he wanted to talk to His Majesty about the establishment of the reserve, so as to avoid the repetition of the last time that His Majesty fainted during the banquet and the dragons in the Manchu Dynasty were leaderless."

The officials were taken aback by Sima Guang's words, and remained silent with an outraged attitude.

But Sima Guang continued to say: "Your Majesty, the minister spoke to Fan Zhen at that time. According to the Book of Rites, Da Zong has no sons, so Xiao Zong will be the successor. The successor is also the son."

"His Majesty Chen Yuan chooses a sage from the clan, and entrusts him to take care of the second son to wait for the birth of the emperor's heir. If the emperor's heir is born, the sage will retire to the vassal service. Otherwise, Dian Suwei and Yin Jingyi are enough to be the hope of the world. "

But seeing that the officials were a bit cold and disheartened, he pondered for a long time before saying: "Does it have to be the clan as the heir?"

Sima Guang said: "That's right, I risked my life to speak out!"

The official sighed: "This is the words of a loyal minister, but others dare not mention it in front of me."

Sima Guang knelt down and said: "I say this, and I say I will die, but I don't want Your Majesty to accept it."

The officials are silent again.

Zhang Yue watched from the sidelines, and knew that the officials were doing the same thing as before. How many times did Fan Zhen, Tang Jie, and Bao Zheng mention the establishment of the reserve, but the officials seemed to be persuaded, but finally came I know which sentence is repeated back and forth, and I will think about it carefully before replying to the Qing family. This day is not far away, it is really not far away.

Just when Zhang Yue thought that Sima Guang was going to do the same again, he heard the official suddenly say: "According to Zhang's opinion?"

Zhang Yue's heart beat like a drum.

Just now Sima Guang made the main attack, what about himself now?
At this time, Zhang Yue didn't show any expression, but just said a proper and authentic sentence next to Sima Guang: "I am attached to you!"
