Chapter 224 Bao Zheng's debut
The cold winter is coming, Xixia is resting, Bianliang earthquake, and Liao is dormant.
Renzong lived in seclusion in the palace and did not show up for several days. All the big and small things in the court were dealt with by Lv Yijian alone. Some ministers had long been disgusted and complained that Lv Xiangde was too domineering and exclusive, taking advantage of the Beijing disaster to promote officials without permission.
This time, it is not someone else who enters the palace, but Ouyang Xiu. He usually says it bluntly. He is used to being an official, and his temperament is still the same. If he encounters something that is not conducive to the country, no matter who he is, he dares to impeach him.
A gust of north wind blew, and the east wall of Tianzhang Pavilion fell down.
With a bang, the bricks and stones fell to the ground, and the weight of a thousand pounds suddenly hit the ground. The earth trembled and rippled, and the invisible air waves scattered around, throwing the sand grains in the cracks of the bricks, which was like throwing a bean.
"There's an earthquake. Run, my lord!"
The doorkeeper broke into the warm pavilion in a panic, pulled up the adult inside and ran out. The man was dressed in a four-beam crown, gold-painted silver belt, and a thin black boots were spotless. In a hurry, he still held a book in his hand. The dust on the roof fell down and spilled his face. His eyes were hot, and tears couldn't stop flowing. When I came outside the house, I had already become a big face.
"Your Excellency, the earthquake seems to have stopped!" The waiter looked at the library behind him in shock and saw that the east wall fell down and smashed a pavilion. Even the stone lion near the pavilion was not spared and became a headless lion.
"Cough... How did this happen? It's really unlucky!" The adult spit out the dust all over his mouth and wiped his tears. His eyes were blurred, and he couldn't even see the road clearly. He wanted to reach out to hold the shoulder of the waiter, but he didn't know that it was really a powerful hand.
"Please come with me!"
"Slow down, slow down, I'm confused in front of my eyes"
"Yes, yes!"
The waiter didn't dare to go out and follow behind. He said to himself that Lord Bao would definitely get a notebook this time. Unexpectedly, he dared to take your majesty's hand. I, a slave, dare not. At most, I just helped your majesty's elbow.
Tianzhang Pavilion was built in the fourth year of the reign of Emperor Zhenzong (1020). When His Majesty Emperor Renzong ascended the throne, it had already been completed. Here, there is a collection of ink treasures, handwritten inscriptions, royal royal books, and portraits of the former emperors of this dynasty.
Lord Bao is Bao Xiren, Bao Zheng, Zhizhou, Duanzhou, who has only recently been transferred back to Beijing.
During his tenure as the governor of Duanzhou, he was well received by the local people. He reclaimed farmland, built water conservancy, and rectified the governance of local officials. It eased illegal merchants to maliciously raise the price of the local specialty Duan inkstone, which reduced taxes for the people. At the same time, he also made certain achievements in the education of the local barbarians. In addition, he was a clean and honest official, in the local scholar. Linzhong has a good reputation, and his popularity catches up with Lord Fubifu, a popular man in Beijing.
After passing the examination of the court, Bao Zheng's reputation was enough to serve as a Beijing official. Therefore, the officials' subordinates transferred the order to move Bao Zheng back to Beijing to serve. Lv Yijian gave Bao Zheng a small official who had no real power. Later, Renzong knew that he added a few words to the approval of the official department: Langzhong. Quan Zhi Kaifeng's affairs!
This is a great deal. Quan Zhi Kaifeng's affairs are actually a job. Generally speaking, Bao Zheng is not qualified to be the governor of Kaifeng. Lv Yijian once wrote a rebuttal, but Ouyang Xiu of the Yuan and a group of officials who were full and had nothing to do, but supported His Majesty's appointment, saying that it was Bao Zheng. This person can be reused, and Duanzhou's political achievements can be seen.
Lv Yijian knew that Ouyang Xiu was clearly against him, and several old men who were not afraid of death in the imperial history stage actually opposed him together, which was really angry and hateful.
Since so many imperial historians have said in support for Bao Zheng, Renzong did not mean to waver. Lv Yijian took the opportunity to take a step down and said that his majesty knows people wisely, and Bao Zheng should be able to bear the heavy responsibility of Kaifeng Mansion. The old minister was only worried for a moment. It seems that he was too worried. Please examine it clearly.
Renzong was very satisfied with Lv Yijian's geneaty. He felt that the admonsors were too careful to slander the prime minister in private. The prime minister was also dedicated to doing things for the court. He should not be suspected like this.
Therefore, it was more reassuring to let Lv Yijian deal with political affairs.
A few days ago, Bao Zheng returned to Beijing. Lv Yijian was busy with the reconstruction of Bianliang. He didn't have time to pay attention to those officials. He approved the official documents every day and issued a decree. There was no time to care about those rumors. However, the news brought by Shen Mio when he returned to Beijing on Jingdong Road was shocked.
I have to stop what I'm doing immediately and temporarily hand it over to Wen Yanbo.
I met a man in the political hall. This man's name was Zhan Qian, who was the magistrate of Dingtao County of the Guangji Army. According to Zhan Qian, he was ordered by the court to take the Guangji Army into the boundary of Jeju. After some investigation, he found that Juye City was occupied by traitors. He led his troops to attack the city bravely. Unexpectedly, the thief was so powerful that a cavalry attacked from behind. The Guangji army suffered from the enemy, and the whole army was destroyed. He, Zhan Qian, if he hadn't wanted to spread this news, he would have wanted to die in the country. He escaped after killing many enemy arrays. The horses were seriously injured and died. He walked to the capital with his feet.
On this point, Shen Mio's family and accompanying soldiers can testify to the transshipment of Jingdong Road.
When Lv Yijian first heard the news, he frowned and immediately remembered something, so he quickly asked Zhan Qian, "Do you know what the thief who occupied the huge field hit?"
"Master Xiang, they fought the flag of our army. If it hadn't been for this, the Guangji army would not have been attacked by the thief. It was not until soon that it was disguised by the thief!" Speaking of this, Zhan Yan burst into tears and cried into tears, as if he had already put life and death aside. He also vowed that if your majesty was willing to pursue his will with death, he would never humiliate the reputation of the Guangji Army.
Lv Yijian is a nostalgic person, not to mention that according to the roster of officials of the Ministry of Officials, Zhan Yu is indeed the supervisor of the Guangji Army. Although he has never had any political achievements and no fault, the Guangji Army has been quite stable in recent years.
Another point is that Zhan Qian is from Haicang Town, Laizhou, and his own family is also from Laizhou. With this, Lv Yijian will look at it differently. After several test, Lv Yijian found that Zhan Qian is very useful, at least very obedient, and will not always trouble him like those speakers.
So, he had the intention to take it for his own use. He didn't scold him too much. He just warned him not to speak out about this matter. If he spilled his mouth and military law to deal with the thieves in Jeju, the two governments have their own way. He will go down and wait for orders first.
After Zhan Qian left, Lv Yi ordered people to invite people from the Privy Council. Du Yan was not in the government office at this time. He was taking several pushers to patrol the city defense outside. After all, the four cities of Bianliang were seriously damaged. As the head of the army, he should come out to comfort him and inspire the forbidden army to guard everywhere along the city. Even if the wall is gone, he had to check the gate. Unless there are special regulations, the four cities will still close and open on time.
