    Chapter 303 Impeachment Ruyun The handover process was very cumbersome, and Zhao Juan did not pay attention to the whole process. Most matters were handled by the staff such as Yang Zhen, Mei Yaochen, and Qian Yanyuan.  It took a day and a half for the handover to be fully completed.  For such a long time, people in the officialdom of Fengxiang Mansion were amazed and secretly admired the abilities of Zhao Juan's staff.  But in fact, this is just superficial. After all, there is a thousand shi of grain recorded in the books. Who knows if there is really a thousand shi in the warehouse?  Even if he really had a thousand dan, if the grain was mixed with sediment, or if inferior old grain was used instead of new grain, then Zhao Jing would be fooled.  Therefore, after the handover was completed, Zhao Juan immediately appointed Zhou Xuan as the official and inspector of criminal and prison affairs.  The inspector was originally an official position in the Tang Dynasty, and his powers were similar to those of the pacifier in the Song Dynasty.  In the Tang Dynasty, after floods and droughts, the court often dispatched internal and external officials of fifth rank or above to serve as inspection officials and provide relief to the victims. They were called inspection envoys.  Naturally, the inspection envoys established by Zhao Juan do not have such great power. The purpose of their establishment is to inspect the actual storage conditions of money and grain in various places and report corruption in warehouses.  Mei Yaochen served as the pacification department, responsible for the affairs of the government, as well as the inspection envoy. Each of them had two deputy inspection envoys, four survey chiefs and a dozen subordinate staff who were proficient in arithmetic.  As soon as these two orders were issued, the officialdom of Qinfeng Road was immediately shocked.  Yin Zhu couldn't sit still anymore and hurriedly came to see him. He persuaded in a cryptic way: "I heard that the war is coming and I need to seek stability. A strange army can win a big victory, but it can also be a big defeat. It's not the behavior of a big country! It's a gambler's behavior."  It's not advisable!" Zhao Chun retorted: "It's true that if you know yourself and the enemy, you won't be defeated. Now the enemy doesn't know how to win. Even if you want to be safe, you can't retreat!  But he was not convinced, and sneered in his heart, Zhao Yan really didn't know how great the interests involved here, and you dared to interfere.  No matter what, I also said what should be said, you can also sell those people a favor, and something will happen to Zhao Juan in the future.  No one can blame me.  "However, Yin Zhu has some conscience and did not help the evildoers at this time.  When the staff proposed to unite with the gang of morons to deal with Zhao Juan, Yin Zhu flatly refused and ordered the officials he knew well not to interfere in this matter, but they did not need to help. They could do whatever they wanted and follow the procedures.  Come and do it.  What is unexpected is that Zhao Juan showed an extremely tough attitude on this matter.  The magistrate of Wushan County in Longzhou was found to have colluded with grain merchants to secretly sell grain to Jingzhao Prefecture.  That's not all.  The Chencang military camp was even discovered, and the local officers and soldiers were blamed for attrition.  Seventy to eighty percent of the new ordnance was sold at the price of scrap metal and circulated by smugglers to places such as Tubo and Xixia, among which Xixia accounted for the majority.  Zhao Juan was furious and without reporting it to the court, he ordered the leading personnel to be killed and the mansion to be sealed.  Things were better at the county magistrate's place, but at the Chencang military camp the officers and soldiers encouraged the soldiers to disobey orders.  Zhao Juan directly led the Beiwei army. Although there were only 500 people, he charged into the formation and killed hundreds of Song army soldiers with a tyrannical attitude.  The soldiers in Chencang's military camp did not dare to move and allowed General Beiwei to kill the officers on the spot.  In order to establish prestige, the remaining 800 soldiers in Chencang's military camp were all recruited as first-den soldiers, and together with the 200 death row prisoners, a new first-den camp was formed.  After Zhao Juan's series of thunderous methods, all the officials and generals of Qin Feng Road knew how powerful he was, and they were all frightened.  Of course, there are also negative aspects. The Shaanxi transfer envoy was the first to take the lead in impeaching Zhao Juan. He ignored the national law, sent troops to kill officials, and conspired to do evil. If the nine articles are really implemented, he will inevitably be charged with beheading.  Han Qi, the deputy envoy of economic strategy and comfort in charge of Jingyuan Road, was not left behind. He also impeached Zhao Juan for arrogance, domineering, evil intentions and other charges.  On the other hand, Fan Zhongyan in Yanzhou was more kind. Although he also impeached Zhao Juan, the memorial had a somewhat separate flavor.  He believed that what Zhao Juan did was right, but the problem was that "the rebels who have nothing to do with their horses and wheels are in a hurry." He believed that Zhao Juan should "obey the national law of the Song Dynasty and report it to the court for punishment! Otherwise, where will the national law exist?"  ?¡±.  Yin Zhu also didn¡¯t expect that Zhao Juan¡¯s methods would be so fierce and tough. What kind of methods are these?  During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, warriors would go on a killing spree if they disagreed. This is nothing more than what you think!  And the memorial was adapted from the description of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period in the history books. This Qin Feng Road was following in the footsteps of the Five Dynasties. "The rituals and music collapsed, the Three Cardinal Guidelines and the Five Constant Rules were eliminated, and the institutions and articles of the previous kings were swept away!" Song Renzong immediately came to power!  He felt as if he was hunching up a huge mountain on his back, and he blamed Zhao Yan in his heart for why such a thing happened at this time.  This time Song Renzong was not prepared to protect Zhao Chun, and directly asked Lu Yijian: "How does Lu Aiqing think the matter of King Wei killing officials and generals without permission should be dealt with?" Lu Yijian hesitated slightly.?, he resolutely threw out the trap he had left for Zhao Juan before.  "Officials, this matter is of great importance and needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Otherwise, if other military generals will imitate King Wei, how will the Song Dynasty return the country to the law? Isn't the world going to be in chaos? Logically speaking, he should be killed!" Song Renzong heard  He said, his face immediately showed embarrassment, and said: "Is this crime too much?" On the one hand, Song Renzong had feelings for Zhao Juan, on the other hand, Song Renzong was a face-loving person, how could he be willing to bear the notoriety of killing his brother?  What's more, Zhao Juan hasn't been beheaded yet.  I remember that when the Eighth Prince Zhao Yuanyan was still a prince, he learned that Song Taizong had made Song Zhenzong the crown prince, and he set fire to the imperial palace in anger.  This is nothing more than the punishment of "seizing the Wuxin Festival, being demoted to Duanwang, and leaving the former prince-in-law, Captain Shi Baoji"!  After that, Zhao Yuanyan "every time he saw the emperor, he felt sorry for himself, and the emperor took pity on him. He was sent to Zhenhai and Anhua Army as military governors, granted the title of King Peng, and was promoted to Taibao." In other words, every time he saw Song Taizong, he expressed regret.  , and soon the titles, official positions, etc. were restored.  "Those who thought Song Taizong was so ruthless would be so tolerant to their own sons, let alone Song Renzong, a flower growing in a greenhouse.  Lu Yijian also knew that despite the hesitation in Song Renzong's answer, in fact, if he wanted to kill Zhao Juan, this crime alone was not enough.  Even if Zhao Juan rebels, he may not be able to kill him.  The biggest reason is that the official family has no children. In other words, Zhao Juan is one of the only two bloodlines in Song Zhenzong's line, and Song Renzong also has to avoid cutting off his own lineage.  However, Lu Yijian claimed that his goal had been achieved. It was a lie that he wanted Song Renzong to kill Zhao Juan, and it was true that he asked Song Renzong to pay the price after asking for it.  "Officials and veterans also understand the difficulty. It's just that death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided! Otherwise, how can the national law exist? Otherwise, there may be a collapse of the rituals and music of the Five Dynasties!" "This is natural, everyone should imitate the king of Jing in the past.  How about the punishment of being banned?" Song Renzong thought for a while and suggested.  "No!" Lu Yijian immediately objected.  "In the past, when King Jing burned the ban, although it was a sensation, it was still a royal family matter. But now that King Wei has killed the scholar-bureaucrats and military generals, this is no longer a royal family matter. If it is not dealt with seriously, I'm afraid it will  It is the civil and military officials of Shaanxi who will be resentful and are about to launch an attack on Xixia. At this time, there should be no mercy for women! " "This" Song Renzong looked confused and didn't know what to say.  Lu Yijian took the opportunity to say: "Of course, the veteran also understands the brotherhood between officials. I think it is better to deprive King Wei of the post of Jingnan Jiedushi, demote King Wei to the title of two-character king, and then live in Jiangnan East Road, Jiangning."  Mansion, let¡¯s avoid the limelight for a while. If King Wei wants to repent, it won¡¯t be too late to increase the official title in the future, right?¡± Song Renzong thought for a moment, nodded and said, ¡°This is not bad, but it¡¯s just a matter of going to Jiangning Mansion.  Is it too far?" Lu Yijian said sincerely: "Guan Jian, I am doing this for the good of King Wei. With King Wei's temper, if he is resentful in Bianliang City, why not make things big?  At that time, should the officials punish King Wei additionally? Or should they turn a blind eye and let the matter go? No matter what they do, it will affect the reputation of the officials.  The king was sent to Jiangning Mansion, which is far away. Even if King Wei makes trouble, the officials can cover it up. Moreover, Jiangning Mansion is a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, with small bridges and flowing water, which is perfect for nourishing King Wei's sentiments!  Renzong thought about it and felt that it made sense. He nodded immediately and said, "That's fine. Lu Aiqing will follow the procedure and hand over the note. I will let Ye Qingchen draft the edict again!" "Yes! The old minister resigned!" Lu Yijian felt happy in her heart.  I resigned immediately and prepared to go back and write a note and hand it over tomorrow.  He was also afraid of something unexpected happening due to long nights and dreams.  It¡¯s just that Lu Yijian tried his best, but in the end he made a mistake.  It is said that after Song Renzong said goodbye to Lu Yijian, he returned to Yanfu Hall.  I happened to see Deputy Governor Wang Shouzhong sweeping up fallen leaves with a broom.  Song Renzong smiled and said: "Shou Zhong! Why do you work so hard to clean it? Just leave it to the people below." Wang Shouzhong smiled humbly and said: "This is what a slave should do, how dare you do it to others?"  If it affects the mood of the official family, it will be a big sin for the servant!" Song Renzong shook his head and said: "You, you! You are so cunning, so stop it and come with me!" "Wang Shouzhong!  He nodded and said: "Yes! I put down the broom, here we come!" As he spoke, Wang Shouzhong put the broom aside, but when he turned to leave, he turned around and put the broom on the other side, repeating this three times  Four times.  Song Renzong couldn't help but said: "Just put it aside casually. Shouzhong, why do you put it back and forth like this?" Wang Shouzhong said: "In the official family, the servants were put behind the door yesterday, and they were placed in the corner of the corridor yesterday.  ???I have been looking for it for a long time today.  And now that it's autumn, there are a lot of fallen leaves. I'm thinking that I should put them in a fixed place, otherwise the time it takes to find a broom will be enough to clean the fallen leaves in the yard.  " The relaxed expression on Song Renzong's face immediately condensed, and he said: "Shou Zhong, you seem to have something in your words?  "(To be continued)
