Dajin royal family

Chapter 505 The Second Year of King Zhao (thanks to Mao Qiansong for the reward)

In the second year of King Zhao (the 11th year of Hongye), February.

"Dali Temple investigates the case, pedestrians give way!"

The sound of cold shouts sounded, and the common people gave way one after another. A group of Dali Temple officials galloped past, stirring up dust and filling the crowd.

When the people from Dali Temple left, the common people did not yell at them because they affected them by galloping their horses, but aroused discussions.

"Who did Dali Temple find again?"

"I heard that another high-ranking official has been corrupted and bribed. The people in Dali Temple have received a tip and have been investigating for several days."

"When did Dali Temple become so powerful? Isn't this the work of the men of the Ministry of Criminal Justice?" Some merchants and passers-by who had just arrived asked in confusion.

The people of Taiyuan squinted at it immediately, and their faces were filled with the sight of bumpkins who had never seen the world.

"You don't know this. Dali Temple heard that there is a new Lord Wei and Lord Wang. The two have joined hands to make a perfect match, yes." The enthusiastic Taiyuan people introduced to outsiders how clean the officials were in the Northern Jin Dynasty, and how fair and fair King Zhao was.

At the corner of the street, there was an unpretentious carriage parked, surrounded by only one guard.But if you observe carefully, you can find countless strong men mixed in the crowd, and the owner of the guardian's carriage is far or near.

These men are full of energy and blood, and they are fierce generals. They are carefully guarding the side at this moment, fearing that they will disturb the owner in the carriage.

A corner of the curtain of the carriage was lowered slightly, and there were two men sitting inside the carriage.

"Your Majesty, if we indulge Wei Xuancheng like this, will there be any trouble?" Du Ruming frowned slightly, a little worried.

Since Wei Xuancheng and Wang Hui entered Dali Temple, they have become a bureaucratic nightmare in Taiyuan. In just over a month, they have found out several unjust and wrong cases, and now they even have their eyes on officials of the fourth grade.

"It doesn't matter, Wang Hui's ability to flex his muscles and conduct unrestrained inspections shows that Wang Hong is behind his back. Although most of the officials who were arrested this time belonged to the Zheng family, many of the Wang family were also implicated. "

Jiang Chengxiao paused, "Few people who get angry can calm down. Wang Hong wants to use the officials of the Zheng family to push Wang Hui to take the position of the young minister of Dali Temple. Zheng Shanyuan doesn't want to lose in vain."

The role of Gongbu Shangshu's bones began to become clear.

Although Xue Ting became the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the gentry officials of Bingzhou were very satisfied, Zheng Shanyuan was not satisfied, because this time he lost not only the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, but also his grandson's Dali Temple Shaoqing, plus Wei Xuancheng who likes to make trouble , and now some contradictions have gradually become clear.

"Your Majesty, [-] troops have entered Qi County one after another, and the Great War in the Central Plains is about to start. At this time, we can't let ourselves get into trouble." Du Ruming persuaded tactfully.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled slightly, but he was looking forward to someone making trouble at this time.

"Master, the time has come." Nan Jiyun's voice came from outside.

Hearing this, Du Ruming cupped his hands and bowed, "Your Majesty, my subject is gone."

"Well, there is no room for mistakes in Hedong County, and you must discuss it with General Pei when you encounter problems."

"Yes."

In the Tiange, six ministers gather together.

The difference is that this time Tiange has changed two people, one is Xue Ting, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the other is Wen Yanfei, the servant of the door.

It was the first time for Wen Yanfei to participate in the highest-level meeting of the Northern Jin Dynasty, so he seemed a little nervous.Yu Qing who was on the side was kind enough to say a few words of relief, which made Wen Yanfei feel a little more at ease.

His tasks in Ziweitang are actually very simple, simple record paperwork, military and political affairs are not his turn to intervene.

However, such an opportunity is the position that every official envies the most. To be able to enter Ziwei Hall, one must either be Liu Xiang, or the humerus confidant of King Zhao.

For example, Du Ruming, the servant of Qianmen, has been appointed to serve as the sheriff of Hedong County this year.

A sheriff in his thirties has a bright future ahead of him.

This Tiange discussion is nothing more than drawing up a charter for the work to be done in the Northern Jin Dynasty this year, and then everyone discusses the details, what each department should do, when it should be completed, and what kind of results will be produced.

In the past, everyone discussed in a friendly manner how to make the Northern Jin Dynasty more prosperous and powerful, but this time it was different.

The first one to attack was Zheng Shanyuan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Due to the tense relationship with military expenditures, he reduced the salaries of officials, and at the same time blamed Pei Ju's Ministry of Rites for reducing the corresponding sacrifices and so on.

Naturally Pei Ju would not do it. As a minister of the Ministry of Rites, he naturally could not allow the Ministry of Households to deduct officials' salaries.

As the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Wang Hong would not stand by and watch this kind of thing, and soon joined the battle to besiege Zheng Shanyuan.

On the other hand, Wei Chijiong, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, bombarded the newcomer Xue Ting wildly. His reason for attacking was simple. The quantity of ordnance produced by the Ministry of Industry recently was not enough, and the quality declined, which affected the frontline war.

Xue Ting is tall, thin and honest.It was the first time for him to attend a meeting, and he was taken aback by Yu Chijiong, a big blunt talker. When he realized it, he immediately fought back.

Wei Shijian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, did not sit back and watch the show, but instead helped Yu Chijiong to besiege Xue Ting, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

The reason is the same, he doesn't want the Ministry of Industry to have any more lost ordnance, and if the king asks the Ministry of Punishment to investigate again, he will have to shed his skin.

Wen Yanfei opened his mouth, as if he couldn't believe that this was the legendary Six Aspects of the Heavenly Pavilion. The quarrel was a bit intense. How was it different from the officials at the Great Court Meeting?
He turned to look at Yu Qingze, and found that the latter's face was very calm, as if he had already gotten used to it.He looked at the one on the throne again, and found that that one also had a calm face.

Is this the daily life of Tiange?
After they had been arguing for half an hour and Jiang Chengxiao finished drinking a pot of tea, he calmed them down.

Then, he first refuted Zheng Shan's idea of ​​reducing his salary, and then asked Pei Ju to simplify some meaningless sacrificial activities in the Ministry of Rites on the grounds that "the world is not safe, so everything should be kept simple."

Then, based on the recent unjust, false and wrongly decided cases in Dali Temple, he reprimanded Wang Hong's officials for their inaction, allowing moths to harm the people in the officialdom, and removed one doctor and two Yuanwailang from the officials.

Each played [-] big boards, and Zheng Shanyuan and the three of them stopped their flags and drums immediately. They understood King Zhao's meaning and did not want them to continue to make trouble, otherwise it would not be as simple as each playing [-] big boards.

Although Xue Ting is a scholar, he is somewhat overwhelmed when facing a martial artist and another scholar.

After settling the dispute between the three of Zheng Shanyuan, Jiang Chengxiao comforted Xue Ting again, instead of reprimanding him for not doing enough work in the Ministry of Industry.

"Master Xue is the first time to contact the Ministry of Industry, and it is understandable that there are some difficulties."

Hearing this, Pei Ju and Wang Hong felt at ease.

"Zheng Renguo, the left servant, is quite proficient in the affairs of the Ministry of Industry, Master Xue can often discuss with him." Jiang Chengxiao added.

Zheng Shanyuan's face turned pale.

Wang Hong and Pei Ju's faces darkened, and they glanced at Xue Ting, with a hint of resentment.

Xue Ting: "."

He is very innocent, okay, how did he know that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment were attacking him at the same time when he joined politics for the first time.

Wei Shijian and Yu Chijiong are all to blame.

Then, he heard King Zhao say: "Master Wei, Dali Temple has uncovered a lot of cases during this period, what is your Ministry of Criminal Justice doing?"

Xue Ting secretly smiled from the bottom of his heart.

The corner of Wei Shijian's mouth twitched, he also wanted to investigate the case, but Dali Temple obviously had a dark deal with Wang Hong, otherwise how dare he openly seek trouble.

"I know I was wrong." Wei Shijian honestly admitted his mistake.

Jiang Chengxiao said: "The official officials are not clear, you need to help."

Hearing this, Wei Shijian was stunned, the king wanted him to supervise the officials.On the other side, Wang Hong's face was also a little ugly, but it was also because Dali Temple was too popular during this time.

"Yes, I understand."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chengxiao looked at Zheng Shanyuan and said: "I have a hunch that this time when our army goes south, Yu Wenshu may join forces with Chiju, so, Mr. Zheng, you have to work harder."

The Ministry of Households is in charge of money and food, and fighting on the front line, their tasks are equally heavy.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the four granaries have been checked in detail by the minister, and they will definitely not go on business trips."

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, and immediately said with a grim expression: "The battle is imminent, I hope we will join hands to suppress the thieves, and restore the stability of the people together. The artifact of the Jin Dynasty, my lords, do you understand?"

Although he hopes that someone will cause trouble to give him a reason to do it, it doesn't mean that he is definitely willing to see this scene, at least not yet.

Everyone understood what King Zhao meant, he was about to fight, and whoever dared to engage in internal fighting at home would be stabbed to death when he came back.

This is a warning.

"Your servants should keep this in mind." Everyone clapped their hands in response.

Pei Ju and others naturally understood the seriousness of this matter, so no one dared to ignore it.
