When Cao Yuanzhong made a motion to clean up the scholars and official circles, Li Bo, Feng Dao, Fan Zhi, Wei Renpu and others reacted fiercely. And when Cao Yuanzhong made a motion to clean up the merchants and markets, Feng Dao and others, based on the mentality of appeasement and exchange, prepared to fight with Cao Yuanzhong compromised.
However, Zheng Wei glanced at everyone and said coldly: "Businessmen pursue profit, but officials may not pursue profit! Merchants do not care about the country for immediate profit, but it is not necessarily true that officials will be more loyal to the country. In the past few decades In 2017, were there more people who rebelled against the country and turned to Hu? Are there more civil servants and officials, or are there more merchants and businessmen? If you want to move officials, the Supervisory Office will not allow it. Businessmen belong to the people. If you want to move businessmen, you might as well ask the Correctional Committee first."
Feng Dao, Li Bo and others felt very uncomfortable when they heard that Zheng Wei had brought scribes to the same status as businessmen. However, they could not say anything - how could the literati of the Five Dynasties have much integrity to speak of!
"I just don't know since when, the scribes who control public opinion often judge everyone from the moral high ground: warriors are vulgar, while literati are profit-seeking, so they are not worthy of trust. However, can the scribes who make such judgments be trusted? The moral benchmarks set by Confucian saints were originally used to demand themselves. However, when it fell to the late Confucians in later generations, it became a tool to judge others.
Wei Renpu said: "Does Prime Minister Zheng mean to invite Mr. Yang Guolao to discuss it?"
Zheng Wei said: "Instead of asking Yang Guolao to discuss it, we should put it on the rectification stage to discuss it."
Feng Dao and others were shocked. They only invited one more Yang Dingguo to discuss the matter. The matter was still limited to a small-scale discussion. If it were put to the correction table for discussion, it would be difficult to deal with the matter.
Although business in the Central Plains has flourished in recent years, the political status of merchants is still low - didn't you see that Naib almost didn't dare to say a word during this court meeting? If it weren't for Zheng Wei's special existence, Cao Yuanzhong's motion would probably have been passed, and the interests of the businessmen would have been "naturally" sacrificed by Feng Dao and others. The reason why Zheng Wei is in the position he is today is also due to historical reasons, not because he is a representative of businessman interest groups.
Now businessmen have more money. Their financial resources cannot influence court discussions, but it will be different if they are placed on the rectification and evaluation platform. The financial resources of merchants cannot control the officials of the three houses and two stations, but it is different if they influence many large and small rectification and evaluation envoys. .
Feng Dao said: "Don't plan important matters to the public. If things are not kept secret, it may harm the country."
Zheng Wei said: "This is not a state secret. What can't be said? Over the years, merchants have contributed money and efforts. During the defense of Qinxi and the battle of Mobei, there were soldiers fighting desperately in front, and there were also businessmen in the rear tightening control. They support us without their belts, let alone post-war reconstruction, rent and taxes. They are also the big ones - without them, how can we have the confidence to exempt Hebei, Shandong, Henan and Jingbei from agricultural taxes? This country already has them. We should not treat them as human beings. I really feel that there is something wrong with today¡¯s business affairs and we really need to rectify it. At least we should ask their opinions.¡±
Although Zheng Wei, as the prime minister, did not directly veto Cao Yuanzhong's second motion, it was no different from directly vetoing it. Cao Yuanzhong knew that if the matter was brought to the public comment stage, it would not only make the situation more chaotic. , the chance of passing is really slim! His first two motions failed, and the third motion was of course in vain.
According to the vocabulary of later news broadcasts, this court meeting in the autumn of the tenth year of Tiance can be summarized as "this was an unsuccessful meeting. A meeting without unity, a meeting without victory"!
Everyone has their own position. Everyone has their own agenda. Moreover, all parties expressed dissatisfaction with the outcome of this court meeting.
Needless to say, Cao Yuanzhong went directly to Xishan to find Guo Fen after the court meeting, hoping that she would come out to take charge of the overall situation. However, Guo Fen was not familiar with him in private, and Guo Fen did not trust Cao Yuanzhong as much as he did Zheng in public. Wei, so it didn¡¯t go as he wished in the end.
As for Feng Dao and others, they were not satisfied either. In their view, Cao Yuanzhong wanted to bypass the monitoring station and let the Espionage Department investigate officials. If it was allowed to develop, it would eventually turn into a terrifying spy rule. Of course, Feng Dao and the others didn't know what a spy was, but similar What happened in the Tang Dynasty was the cruel politics of Wu Zetian's era, which was a nightmare for all civil servants. So of course they must resist vigorously. But after checking the businessmen, Feng Dao, Li Ma and others all thought that it should be done. In their view, Zheng Wei, as the prime minister, should not obstruct it, but should have a more "overall view".
Zheng Wei was of course even more dissatisfied. Cao Yuanzhong wanted to bypass civil law to investigate merchants and bypass supervision to investigate officials. It was even more alarming that Feng Dao and others treated the interests of merchants as a dog bone and threw them out to appease Cao Yuanzhong. He felt queasy. He had grown up in the Western Regions. Although he had read the books of saints and admired the morals of the saints, he had never been immersed in the circle of modern Confucianism in the Central Plains. Therefore, his eyes were very different from those of the Confucian scholars in the Central Plains. It was really different. I feel that the group of scholars in front of me have any inheritance relationship with the sages of the Warring States Period.Tie.
After the meeting ended, everyone went back to their respective places to do their own business. The content of the court meeting was leaked out somehow, and in the process of dissemination, some parts were distorted. As a result, within a few days, there was an uproar in public opinion in You and Tianjin.
Shilin first expressed extreme concern about the incident. Think about it, after the Central Plains entered peace and the generals retreated to military towns and military districts in various places, the rise of civil rule was almost inevitable. At this time, the Privy Council jumped out to monitor Shilin and interrogate officials. , I wonder who is not vigilant? Although Zhang Mai hired a large number of young scholars after pacifying Luoyang, the old bureaucrats still accounted for a considerable share of the entire Central Plains. Not to mention localities, even in the central government there were many such as Li Bo and Wang Pu, even if they were newly promoted ministers. For example, Fan Zhi and Wei Renpu, who didn't have one or two relatives and friends who had served as officials in Shi Jin Dynasty? Therefore, as soon as the news came out, there were many opinions and condemnations, and the Privy Council immediately became the target of thousands of people.
Not only did the scholars criticize Cao Yuanzhong with words and writings, but public opinion also surged under the surface.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
If Shilin's reaction was excited and angry, then the businessmen's reaction was frightened and panicked. Among them, those who had something to do with the Khitan were the most worried, followed by those doing foreign business, who were also worried. .
The Silk Road stretches from west to east. On the Silk Road that passes through the desert, all luxury goods are transported, and bulk commodity trade is truly realized. It was still the river-sea trade after the Tiance regime unified Hebei and Shandong.
After acquiring Hebei, the Tiance regime ensured the smooth flow of inland waterways with the Grand Canal as its backbone. On the other hand, it expanded maritime trade. Coupled with the capital injection from Silk Road merchants, the combination of several aspects made it possible to achieve success. the current booming business vitality.
But once the business gets bigger, It is almost impossible not to involve Liao, Qi, Wuyue, Goryeo, Min, and Han. Not to mention anything else, just the timber trade in Liaodong involves countless families from Hebei and Shandong. Coupled with the grain trade, cotton clothing trade and spice trade, several large sums of money are involved in all aspects of the business circle. The shipbuilding industry is inextricably linked to "overseas". In this case, who dares to say that he has no relationship with "foreign countries"? Not to mention that there are still many "foreign businessmen" like Dazhi Festival in Tianjin Port!
When the news reached Tianjin. Dazhijie, who was serving a banquet to his newborn son, was terribly frightened. He was not colluding with foreigners, but was actually a foreign spy. So when he heard about this, he felt depressed that night.
Although Dazhijie's wife, Guan, comes from a small family, she is quite financially savvy. In the past year, some of Dazhijie's businesses in Tianjin and Hebei were handed over to her natal family to help run them. What about capital? The Dazhi Festival also needed the local advantages of her natal family, so Guan gradually became able to speak at home.
At this time, I saw the look on my husband¡¯s face. She guessed a little bit, and while trying to persuade her husband to relax, he said, "Husband, don't worry too much. This rumor is just a rumor, and wasn't it rejected?"
Dazhijie said: "Although it was rejected this time, who knows whether it will pass next time. Alas. It seems that this Tianjin is not a place where I can end up well."
Dai Guanshi was very ambitious and scolded: "My husband is so courageous! This is such a big deal, so we are afraid of it! As long as we do things correctly, whoever is afraid of him will come! Not to mention our Tianjin Dai family Nowadays, there are also prestigious families in Shandong, Hebei and even Yanjing. Where is our business? Even in Beijing Xincheng and the palace of Tian Khan, the wood in it also comes from our Dai family!" Naturally, she did not know the Khitan mission behind the Dazhi Festival. ¡ª¡ªSuch a top-secret matter, even though the husband and wife are deeply in love, Dazhijie dare not reveal even half of it, so Dai Guan always only thought that Dazhijie was a Han Chinese living in Liaodong.
Dazhijie said: "When the government really wants to punish us, sometimes there is no need for a reason."
"Why don't you need a reason?" Dai Guanshi said: "Although the Nu family is a house of women, we have also heard Monk Bian say that our emperor rules the world with justice, fairness, loyalty and filial piety! The correction platform in Cangzhou, These four words are engraved on the four pillars of Tianjin's correction platform. Gong means justice, Ping means equality, loyalty to the country, filial piety at home. Among the four words, justice ranks first! Since justice comes first, Then no matter what you do, you need a reason!¡±
Storytellers and monks were not only a weapon for the Tiance regime to seize the world, but even after the Central Plains was pacified, Zhang Mai did not shelve them, but continued to increase investment, making them the greatest weapon for the popularization of legal principles. Many of Zhang Mai's ideas They have all been transformed into various stories, spread all over the world, and penetrated into the people at a very fast speed. Otherwise, if we rely on those obscure Confucian classics, it will be difficult for ordinary people to understand them even in a hundred years.
Dai Guanshi paused and then said: "If there is really evidence of treason, then he deserves to be beheaded, butIf you have evidence, you can monitor and arrest people, and you will have to make an unjust case! If the officials can't be caught, then we businessmen like us are going to be arrested? If the Privy Council's motion is genuine, I don't know how many secret agents will take the opportunity to harass the market and extort merchants. We cannot agree to this. We have to fight back on this matter! "
Dazhijie was taken aback and said: "Fight back? Don't mess around! The Privy Council only made a motion, but it didn't happen. What kind of trouble are you making!"
Dai Guanshi said: "Husband, you are right what you just said. I failed this time, but what if I pass next time? It will be too late if we wait until we pass. So we have to call back, shout out, and call the people above. Know the plight of those below us!¡±
Dazhijie secretly complained when he heard it, and said: "What do you want? That's the Privy Council! The Tang Dynasty's invincible Tang Cavalry is in their hands. If they don't come to check us, we will have to burn incense. You still want to fight?" Go back? How to fight? Still shouting? Who are you shouting to? "
Dai Guanshi said: "The lower part is shouting for the people of the country, and the upper part is shouting for the people above. The emperor is on a tour to the west, isn't the empress still there?"
The ideas promoted by the system of storytellers and monks were deeply influenced by Zhang Mai, so even women and children in towns and cities sometimes learned some of Zhang Mai's grammar. Even thinking, but in the process of dissemination, it is inevitably distorted. For example, Zhang Mai has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, but the people are shouting, either the emperor or long live. Guo Fen was not called the queen, but she was the empress. In the hearts of women and children, calling them emperor, marshal, madam, or queen, that's what they mean. Changing the name verbally has little effect.
Dazhijie smiled and said: "You are a woman who has just finished her confinement. Who can you shout to? And can you let the queen hear you?"
Dai Guanshi smiled and said: "That's not necessarily the case! There is something I haven't told my husband yet. My brother has been chosen as the censor of Cangzhou!"
Dazhijie was stunned: "Youwhat did you say!"
Dai Guanshi said: "I said that my brother has been elected as the censor of Tianjin. Husband, are you happy? This matter has not been announced yet, but it has only been in the past two days. Last night, Yang Guolao also received me in person There are two brothers.¡±
"Yang Guolao? Which Yang Guolao?"
¡°That¡¯s Yang Dingguo, Yang Guolao, the one in charge of the ¡®Seal of the Words for All People¡¯ at the Correctional Commentary Station.¡±
Dazhijie said in shock: "Zhemo is Yang Yingyang's father!"
Yang Yi defeated the Khitan, and his power in the Northern Kingdom was unparalleled. No matter in Mobei or Liaodong, the mention of the word "Yingyang" can make children stop crying.
"Yes! He is the father of General Ying Yang who defeated the Khitans and beat the Emperor of Liao to the point of losing his soul!"
Dazhijie was stunned for a while. He knew that Dai Guan's brother was very active in Tianjin during this period, but he never expected that his brother-in-law, who didn't even know the word, would be chosen as the censor of correction! We even met Yang Dingguo!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Tianjin is a new city. It is also a city of immigrants. Although it has not long since opened its port, with the rapid development of maritime trade, a large population has gathered. The upper echelons here are the military, officials and major merchants, as well as those involved in overseas trade. Large families in Hebei and Shandong. The middle and lower classes are farmers and ordinary citizens who took advantage of this situation and came to Tianjin to make a living. Officials are floating around, the army is taking turns guarding, and there are many merchants who have no roots. Nowadays, more than 80% of the people who have settled in Tianjin are these lower-class people.
Tianjin¡¯s geographical location. To the east is the sea, to the west is Youji to the north, and to the south is Cangzhou. The people of Youji were wiped out by the Khitan migration, so people who poured into Tianjin to work as lower-class laborers were mostly from Cangzhou. It can be said that Cangzhou is Tianjin¡¯s backyard. These Cangzhou people In a foreign land, people naturally take care of each other based on their nostalgia, and over time they form a force.
Dai Guan¡¯s natal family is also a member of this group. His brother came here to explore the world when Tianjin opened its port. It was precisely because of this relationship that the marriage between the Dai and Guan families came about.
The Dai family comes from a humble background, which is what Dazhijie values. Although he is rich, he wants to keep a low profile. After the wedding, he dotes on his new wife and takes care of many benefits for the Dai brothers. Moreover, several brothers of the Dai Guan family can indeed help. For many things that are not convenient to come forward on the Dazhi Festival, the Guan brothers will come forward on their behalf.
Unexpectedly, although the Dai brothers are illiterate, they are well-connected and have a bit of politician talent. On the one hand, they use the manpower and local advantages of fellow villagers to pave the way for their brother-in-law's business. After solving many problems, it gradually established a lot of prestige among the Cangzhou people in Tianjin, and the public voice was very high.
Yang Dingguo established correctional commentatories in various places. Tianjin was a political highland alongside Yedu and Kaifeng, so he even came down in person. Brothers like the Guan family, who come from lower classes, are open-minded and active, have a good reputation, are popular and have a certain degree of influence.The well-informed local young Han is simply a seed tailor-made for the Correctional Review Station. Wherever he is placed, he is the target of Tiance's attention. It is difficult to escape Yang Dingguo's discernment!
When Dai Guanshi spoke to her husband tonight, she showed such a high spirit, which is also related to the fact that her brother has become successful!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Dazhijie listened to his wife talking about all the details of the meeting between the Guan family boss and Yang Guolao. The speaker talked endlessly, but the listener secretly complained. He tried every means to keep a low profile, but in the end he became extremely high-profile - he even met Yang Dingguo and was praised a lot. He even sent a scholar to educate the illiterates on various legal knowledge and official procedures. This is what a blind person can see. There is no intention of cultivation. From now on, the Guan family will no longer be able to keep a low profile even if they want to.
Dai Guan was a little bit offended by her mother's family, but she didn't notice the subtle changes in her husband's expression. She still said to herself: "Husband, our Dai and Guan families are now one. The affairs of the Dai family are the affairs of the Guan family. Things are not fair. Wait for me Brother, when you become the censor, you must speak out!"
Dazhijie said in shock: "No! You absolutely don't want it!"
"Why not!" Dai Guan said: "Husband, don't be worried. No matter how big the Privy Council is, it can't be bigger than Yang Guolao. Does the Privy Council have one of the six seals of the country? As long as we speak according to the charter, we have nothing to fear! Besides, , This is not just for the Dai family. It is for the merchants. In fact, it is not just the business of the merchants. If the market is really in chaos, the livelihood of us hardworking people will also be greatly affected. "
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Three days later, Dai Guan's brother Guan Dahe was indeed elected as the censor of Tianjin's Jiu Pingtai. As expected, the first thing he did after becoming the censor of Jiu Pingtai was to question whether the Privy Council really intended to impose strict regulations without evidence. Investigate merchants in markets in various places. Because this matter may disrupt the commercial order in various places, he asked the Privy Council to respond positively.
This matter is now spreading very widely, there are all kinds of rumors, and businesses everywhere are also trembling with fear. It's just that as the last of the four people, they didn't dare to speak out. At this time, someone stood up for them, and they immediately gathered in response.
A series of impeachment memorials from Shilin were sent to Xishan and piled up on Guo Fen's desk. The newly built correctional commentatories in Yedu and Kaifeng also raised doubts after Tianjin and asked the Privy Council to explain this.
Guo Fen was very troubled and asked Feng Dao for advice on what to do. Feng Dao said: "This matter is very contrary to people's hearts. It has caused such a public outcry and the culprit should be reprimanded."
Although Guo Fen has never formally handled government affairs, she has been with Zhang Mai for a long time, and Zhang Mai will not avoid her no matter what. Therefore, she understands Zhang Mai's style of dealing with things, and vaguely feels that if Zhang Mai is here, he will not avoid her. Such suggestions will certainly not be adopted. But she had no idea how to make a decision - she was originally an extremely neat person, but when faced with such a major world event, she had no idea.
Seeing his mother's worry, Zhang Yunzhao said, "Didn't Dad say before he left that you can ask Hanlin about government affairs and Dingliao about military affairs? Doesn't the Privy Council involve military affairs? In that case, why not ask Uncle Yi."
Guo Fen glanced at his eldest daughter and said with a smile: "If you don't decide on domestic affairs, ask Zhang Zhao; if you don't decide on foreign affairs, ask Zhou Yu!" Your father told us about the Three Kingdoms. It was his mother who reminded Sun Quan, but now I have my daughter to remind him. , I¡¯m really confused! But this place is also far from Dingliao. I don¡¯t know how long it will take to come back and forth.¡±
Zhang Yunzhao said: "It's better to be farther away. Don't you just have time to let all parties calm down?"
Guo Fen then drafted a letter and Feishuchi asked Yang Yi. There was a Feishu express station between Yanjing and Dingliao. Three days later, Yang Yi received the letter. Seven days later, Guo Fen received a reply. Yang Yi's attitude It is very clear: Cao Yuanzhong, as the deputy privy envoy, has the power to initiate espionage review. As long as the court meeting passes, it can be implemented. If the court meeting has not passed, the matter will be over. There is no need to bear unnecessary responsibilities and no need to respond to criticism. Taiwan's question - it's just that this matter should have been kept secret, but why was it leaked to the public, causing rumors at home and abroad? Therefore, the person who should be blamed is not Cao Yuanzhong, but the leaker of the court meeting!
After getting Yang Yi's reply, Guo Fen thought it made sense, but he didn't know how to find the leaker of the court meeting. He wanted to find the person, but he was also afraid of making a big splash and shaking the political situation.
Zhang Yunzhao said: "That's not easy! There are only a few people participating in the court meeting. Isn't it enough for my mother to write to them one by one and question them?"
Guo Fen said: "What if they don't recognize it?"
Zhang Yunchao said with a smile: "Don't those turned literary monks and storytellers brag all day long that our Tang Dynasty is now a 'conquering dynasty'? If they are all gentlemen, they will not dare to admit it. Besides, this kind of thing is really necessary." The police can always find out, but if you tell a lie and then get exposed, will you still have the nerve to stay in court in the future?"
Guo Fen smiled and said: "It seems to make sense." Then he asked Li Fang to draft a letter. Zhang Yunzhao said: "LetWriting for someone is not as intimidating as writing a letter written by the mother herself. "
Guo Fen said: "I can't write well."
"What kind of words do you want?" Zhang Yunzhao said, "Just speak clearly."
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
As expected, Guo Fen followed his daughter¡¯s suggestion and wrote a personal letter to everyone who participated in the court meeting¡ªincluding the four prime ministers of the government, the two privy councilors of the military government, the four academicians of the Hanlin Academy, and Wei Renpu of the supervisory board.
This is an inquiry written by the Mother of the Nation in a personal letter. It is a bit more serious than a face-to-face questioning. It is naturally easy to lie, but if this lie is exposed, the price will be very high - not to mention that everyone received the letter at almost the same time, and no one I knew that Guo Fen was asking everyone the same question.
It has to be said that in today¡¯s Tiance Court, at least the highest level, even if they are not all righteous, at least the average moral level is above the passing line: such as Li Bo. For example, Zhang Zhongce has a strong sense of justice; like Feng Dao, Fan Zhi, and Wei Renpu, they all still have a moral bottom line in their hearts; Cao Yuanzhong has the lowest bottom line among everyone, but he still knows how to judge the situation; Zheng Wei has a kind of Clearly a worldly mentality.
So as soon as Guo Fen¡¯s letter arrived. Several people who were involved stayed up all night. As a result of the final reply, both Feng Dao and Wei Renpu confessed that they had mentioned the matter to their disciples. Feng Dao was more experienced and spoke more tactfully, while Wei Renpu was still young and took the responsibility. After reading Guo Fen's letter, he was deeply conscience-stricken. When replying to the letter, he even took the initiative to reveal his dark motives for leaking the matter and requested to be punished.
Naib also confessed. It wasn't that he had a hard conscience, he just thought that Guo Fen would ask about it and it must have happened, so he timidly revealed the truth.
Cao Yuanzhong also confessed. He was venting his anger in front of his nephew. I wonder if his nephew had leaked the secret. In this matter, Cao Yangong and others may not take the initiative to leak it, because doing so would only be detrimental to the Cao family, but Cao Yuanzhong deliberately chose to confess .
besides. Everyone else said that they had never leaked the secret, and Zheng Wei didn't even reply to the letter. He just wrote the words "nothing happened" at the end of the letter and returned the letter. This not only meant that he was above board, but also showed that he was very dissatisfied with Guo Fen for questioning him.
After receiving all the replies, Guo Fen invited the official Zhang De to ask him what to do.
After knowing the whole story, Zhang De said: "The court meeting needs to be kept secret, and it has not been written in advance. Therefore, there is no clear example in the law, it is just a tacit agreement, but my wife's treatment today will probably become a rule for future generations."
Guo Fen said: "This kind of thing is definitely wrong, and the law is not clear. If it falls on ordinary people, you can let it go, but it is inappropriate for the princes of the court to use it to attack each other. The only question is how to measure the punishment."
Zhang Dedao: "If you want to put an end to the sentencing of law, you have to be strict."
After he left, Guo Fen thought about it and couldn't make a decision. Zhang Yunzhao said, "Why is mother in trouble?"
Guo Fen said: "I want to deal with it according to reason, but I'm just worried that your father is away and the political situation is unstable. The public opinion is already very noisy. If I deal with a large number of people again, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Zhang Yunchao laughed: "Will the army be in chaos?"
Guo Fen said: "It has nothing to do with the army."
"Then there's nothing to worry about." Zhang Yunchao said: "What a mess of public opinion, it's just a quarrel. If there is really any big trouble, the most likely thing is for dad to bring the seal of General Tiance and lead his troops back from the Western Regions."
Guo Fen smiled and said: "That's right." Then she wrote a letter to Zhang Mai, explaining clearly the whole story and her own thoughts on how to deal with it. After finishing writing, she suddenly thought: "Since he is the hands-off shopkeeper, , threw everything to me, then I will deal with it on his behalf, so what¡¯s the harm! Why do you ask him what to do! "
Then he finally came to the conclusion: he revoked Feng Dao University's bachelor's degree and replaced him with a political bachelor's degree in charge of the Hanlin Academy; he revoked his business bachelor's degree in political affairs; he revoked Wei Renpu's imperial envoy position and demoted him to deputy capital imperial envoy and temporarily took charge of the supervisory platform; he deposed Cao Yuanzhong. With the rank of general, he was demoted one level to serve in the Privy Council.
After the discussion was made public, the outside world learned about Guo Fen's questioning of the ministers, and the public opinion couldn't help but be in an uproar. Everyone was surprised that things would turn out to be what they are now. And Guo Fen, who used his heroine to take charge of the imperial seal, dared to dismiss the bachelor, the imperial envoy, and the general without Zhang Mai's consent!
The Hanlin Academy is an advisor to the emperor, and the Supervisory Office is directly responsible to the emperor, so the review can be effective if it is stamped with the imperial seal. But if you want to reduce Cao Yuanzhong's title, you have to write to the Western Regions and have Zhang Mai seal it for approval.
??????????????????????????????????????? However, after the punishment, Feng Dao still stayed in the Hanlin Academy unmoved. However, Wei Renpu felt deeply humiliated and felt that he had no face to serve as the imperial envoy of the Supervisory Platform again, so he resigned from Xishan that day.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
When the news reached the south bank of the Weishui River, Sang Weihan excitedly said to Liu Zhiyuan: "Unexpectedly?It will come so fast! Zhang Mai shouldn't leave at this time, and his mother-in-law is ignorant and doesn't know how to weigh things up! Now that Heaven is planning to kill the hen in the morning, the government will be in chaos, and the Zhang family will be destroyed today! Your Majesty, our chance has come! "
