8. Forever Lost Burning Tail Banquet
On that day, the emperor chose to choose the prime minister and it still penetrated Dou Shen's ears.
Dou Shen became anxious. He could not watch the position of prime minister fall into the hands of Dong Jin and Ban Hong, but he was ranked behind. Dong Jin was fine, Ban Hong had been in charge of the national economy for a long time. If he became prime minister, he would not have to control all the power of the three departments of the Ministry of Revenue, so he could only stand aside.
So Dou Shen was restless and asked her concubine how to do Shangqing in the house.
Shangqing sighed slightly and advised Dou Shen: "The Holy Lord even had the favorite minister Gao Yue, so it must be considered because of the issue of class salary. Therefore, it was natural for Dong Jin and Ban Hong to stay in Ming Gong before. Moreover, I am not a good person to be with the prime minister. Ming Gong should not stand under the dangerous wall without authorization."
"What are you talking about Shangqing!" Dou Shen was extremely unfair. "I am in charge of the financial plan for the court. Which of the costs of military and national affairs is not my own? The Marquis of Ye is prime minister and praised me. The reason why Gao Yue was able to pacify Qiang was successful was entirely due to my abundant army. Now I am not the Minister of the Secretariat, but I am the Minister of the Secretariat, so why should I work together with the Secretary of the Secretariat? "
The Shangqing said that your clan Dou Shen has been too high-profile recently. Recently, another clan Dou Rong came to Pingling, his hometown. They had a deep relationship with the Hanlin scholars of the Neijing, the princes and the vassal states. If the saint master knew about it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Dou Shen was so angry that he ignored Shangqing and walked to the "Fifth Brothers' Shrine" in the corner of the main hall to pray...
The next day, Dou Shen suddenly felt refreshed again, as if he had received the advice of his fifth brother, and went to the Zhengshi Hall in the Daming Palace to pay homage to Li Mi.
"The problem of class salary is not unsolvable." Li Mi learned about Dou Shen's purpose and said while stroking his beard.
When Dou Guan saw that there was something in Yehou's words, he hurriedly stated: "Please ask Yehou to be compatible in front of His Majesty. He was also the Minister of the Censorate and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He is very familiar with the national financial plan. Now he is in a critical period of implementation of the rules of law. If he hastily asked Ban Hong to take over, he is afraid of making any mistakes. He is a minor honor and disgrace, and is afraid of causing harm to the country's major issues."
Li Mi nodded, but advised Dou Shen: "The prime minister is not as good as the chief censor, nor is he as the minister of the Southern Province. It depends not only on his talents, but also on whether he can properly adjust the relationship with the ruler. Senior three and Lu Jiu were both candidates for the prime minister, but Senior three were long-term leaders, and Lu Jiu was originally a Hanyuan official. Once he became the master of the world, his role changed and his way of dealing with things remained unchanged, he would not only disobey the master's wishes, but also his life would be worrying. This sentence is also something that Ben Shanren wants to tell you now, so you have considered it well..."
"It will definitely live up to the expectations of the Holy Lord and the Marquis of Ye!" Dou Shen asked Li Mi without considering it, so he spoke up to promise him.
Li Mi sighed in his heart.
On the same day, in Gao Yue's first grade in Xuanpingfang, Sima of Meizhou, Wang Guo, also the elder brother of Empress Zhaode, came to Gao Yue leisurely again.
Before, Gao Yue strongly protected the prince and asked Wang Guo to be grateful to him. Now Wang Guo is here again. On the surface, it is a private banquet with Gao Yue, but in fact the purpose is the same as Guo Zhuan.
The difference is that Guo Zhuan is now the magistrate of the City Inspection Department, and he is shameful to see Gao Yue; but Wang Guo is in a idle position, so he does whatever he says and does, completely wandering outside the eyes and ears of the court.
What's even more terrifying is that as Wang Guo's identity, he has a good understanding of things inside and outside the palace.
"I heard that Li Zezhi, the king of the Siguo, did want to seek the position of Privy Councilor of the City Supervision Commission. Outside, there was the recommendation of Cao Wanggao, and inside, there was the stimulus of Dou Shen's party, saying that military power could not be entrusted to eunuchs and the use of loyal and strong royal family." Wang Guo confessed information to Gao Yue in the pavilion.
"Will Li Ze's superior throne have any impact on the prince?" Gao Yue deliberately used the name of "Crown Prince" to spy on Wang Guo's more and more critical information.
Wang Guo pondered for a while, then approached and told Gao Yue a news:
Do you know who opposes Li Zezhi the most intensely?
"who?"
"The Holy Lord's uncle."
Gao Yue's face was stunned. The so-called Holy Lord's uncle should actually be considered the emperor's uncle Wu Coo.
Wu Cou was the younger brother of Empress Zhang Jing of Emperor Suzong. Empress Zhang Jing was born in Daizong, so Wu Cou was the uncle of Daizong, that is, the uncle (uncle) of the current emperor.
When Emperor Daizong killed Yuan Zai, Wu Qu was appointed General Jinwu at that time, and his support was very great. Now Wu Qu left the center and went out to serve as the Fujian Observer.
"The Holy Lord's uncle is now in Fujian, why should he oppose Li Zezhi?"
Wang Guo took advantage of the alcohol and told Gao Yue that this was an old hatred. When Li Zezhi's father Li Ju was still alive, he did not deal with Empress Zhang Jing and Zhang Liangdi. If you want to say the reason, Li Ju was relative to Emperor Xuanzong, and Empress Zhang Jing of course was relative to Emperor Suzong. Over the past few decades, the grudges between Wu Cou and Li Zezhi's families have not been resolved.
Wu was once the General of Jinwu, which is now the Imperial Capital City Supervisor. He knew that this position was crucial, so he was of course unwilling to let Li Zezhi, who had conflicts with him, take the post.
"This is the battle in the officialdom. If you exclude him, he will find allies, and he will force you to find allies and fight each other, just like fighting Gu." Gao Yue thought so, and gradually knew it in his heart, he calmly helped Wang Guo pour another glass of wine, sighing and saying that if Han Jin Gong is still alive, it will not only cause chaos in the government. "But even if the remaining loyal Yue is here, no matter who will be the General of Jinwu and the Privy Councilor of the City, he will still swear to protect the prince from his death."
Wang Guo was deeply moved and drank several glasses of wine with Gao Yueman.
However, when Wang Guo was staying in the Jiadike Hall, Gao Yue called Wei Tuotian and handed him a secret letter to him and hid it in a wax ball, saying that you will go to Fujian as the Kongmind of Xingyuan Mansion to do business and hand it over to Wu Observation Envoy.
Then Gao Yue prepared to return to Xingyuan Mansion and leave Fengxiang in winter.
As a result, just as he was about to go, a servant in Lu's house was wearing a weak and weak clothes. Gao Yue cried before, saying that the lady of the Lu family had passed away!
Gao Yue hurriedly helped the other party up and asked Lu Jiu where he was?
The answer he got was that Lu Zhi was wearing mourning clothes and cried barefoot to the Daming Palace, asking the emperor to send his mother's coffin back to his hometown of Wuxing, and buried with his coffin of Kao Lukan, and asked him to resign and return to his hometown to mourn.
"How did the madam walk so fast!" The emperor was also very heartbroken, almost slumped on the rope bed, muttering to himself, "Why, why? The imperial physicians clearly said that the prescription was prepared and that they could be cured by taking it, but they had not yet given me a tail-burning banquet..."
Although there was only the moment of conversation when visiting the disease, the emperor received maternal love from Wei, which he seemed to have never experienced before.
Now he and Lu Jiu have no mother.
In the Daming Palace and the Imperial City, when they learned that Lu Zhi was suffering from Ding You, Dou Shen's accomplices all celebrated each other.
