Chapter 659 Phase Battle 7
On the tenth day of the first month of the third year of Yifeng, Hao Chujun, the servant of the province, was sealed back to Wu Chengsi of the Jin Dynasty. As soon as this matter came out, the government and the opposition were shocked. Since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the number of times the decree of the emperor under the door was not small. In those years, Wei Zheng, the famous prime minister, made many such actions, and since Gao Zong's independent government, I often eat this kind of closed door, which is not a rare thing to say, but it falls on the Empress Dowager of Wu, but it is different. It is because the decree he has never been sealed since the Empress Wu came to the dynasty. This time, it can be regarded as the first time. In addition, the connotation is the promotion of the nephew of the Empress Wu, which caused by the sensation is inevitably greater. In addition to the discussion between the government and the opposition, the dark tide began to surge, and all kinds of vertical alliances emerged one after another. Under the efforts of various forces, the atmosphere in the capital was strange and suffocating, and all kinds of rumors were rampant. In this way, the nine-fold Gaozong could not sit still. He couldn't wait for the next day to kill them in the morning. Fu and Prince Li Xian were summoned to the Zichen Hall of Daming Palace to discuss this matter.
"Speaking about it, how should this matter be settled?"
Gao Zong's body was weak, and he was angry and anxious. He looked quite bad. His face was as white as paper, and his eyes were big and black. His whole body was haggard as if the wind blew and would fall down. Looking at the wooden assistants below, he was even more angry. He was just angry, and the matter had to be solved in the end. In no case, Gao Zong had no choice but to suppress his irritability and ask calmly as much as possible.
Dead silence, a faction of dead silence, this matter is originally **. In addition, when one of them saw Gao Zong's gray face, a group of courtiers did not want to be the first bird, and they all kept their mouths shut. The hall was quiet, only Gao Zong's rapid gasp sounded like a windmill.
"What? It's all dumb, huh? What's the use of waiting!"
After waiting for a long time, no one spoke. Gao Zong's face became more and more ugly. In a hurry, he shouted and scolded regardless, leaving no face for the best ministers at all.
"My father is angry. My son thinks that the Chinese calligraphy is one of the pillars of the society. He can't do it unless he has both virtue and talent. This father's arbitrary thing is also, but he has a decision. My son and his ministers should obey it."
Seeing that Gao Zong was so angry, Li Xian couldn't bear it, so he stood up from Jin Dunzi and bowed to answer.
"I respectfully invite Your Majesty!"
With Li Xian's head, the courtiers did not dare to lag behind, and they all bowed and agreed.
"Huh, holy judge, such a holy judge! Since you know that you want me to be a saint, you have done anything for a long time, huh?"
It is rare for Gao Zong to be angry, but once he gets angry, it is not so easy to calm down. No matter how sincere the ministers and workers are, he is still unwilling to give up and scolds him rudely.
What did you do earlier? Look at what the old man said. You always hide in the palace and enjoy happiness. You don't care about anything. Who can tell you first? At this time, you blame others. It's really don't know where to start. Besides, this matter is caused by your old mother-in-law. If you really want to scold, you always have the courage to scold your mother-in-law, but I'm afraid that you will be old. Without that courage, of course, this is such a reason. Everyone knows it in their hearts, but who dares to say it face to face? In desperation, a group of courtiers had to continue to pretend to be wooden people and let Gao Zong be furious.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your dragon body is very important. If there is anything, let's slowly discuss it."
In Gao Zong's anger, his mouth was no longer blocked. After scolding Zai Fu and the minister, he scolded and scolded like this. Seeing that he was about to be scolded on Queen Wu, Queen Wu could no longer keep silent. She hurriedly interrupted from the side and persuaded him softly.
"Discuss, okay, then discuss it. I'd like to see what kind of discussion is, hum!"
Gao Zong scolded for a while, and the anger in his heart was almost vented. In addition, his fear was always there. When he saw Wu Hou's voice, he did not scold any more. He just brushed his sleeves angrily and snorted coldly.
"All of you, Aiqing, the position of Zhongshuling is very important, and it is indispensable for a moment. If you have any ideas, you can say it."
Queen Wu has been in the dynasty for many years, and her ability to control the scene is extremely strong. At this time, Gao Zong closed his voice and immediately took over the power of the chairman, and the faction opened his mouth shamelessly.
"Your Majesty, my mother, the old minister thinks that the position of the Chinese calligraphy order is related to the stability of the court, and no relative minister can do it. Now there is a minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, who is smart and diligent, and has repeatedly made great achievements. It is..."
As the backbone of the party after Wu, Jia Chaoyin was a master of holding stinky feet. He quickly grabbed it, took the lead in expressing his attitude and touted Wu Chengsi.
"Bullshit! Can Wu Chengsi be Wenhu? Do I have to write an edict by myself, huh?"
Gao Zong originally looked at Wu Chengsi, and now he was angry again. When he heard Jia Chaoyin brag about Wu Chengsi so much, he was immediately furious, regardless of Wu Hou was beside him. Without waiting for Jia Chaoyin to finish his words, he had said rudely and scolded him fiercely.
"Your Majesty is angry, the old minister deserves to die, the old minister deserves to die."
Jia Chaoyin is not a capable person. The reason why he can be included in the list of Zaifu is that it can be said to be caused by a little luck and the pusher behind the back of the Queen of Wu. As for the courage, he can't talk about it at all. Seeing Gao Zong's furiousness, he panicked and knelt down in front of the hall, and he was already trembling. Give me a break.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger. Emperor Taizong once said that he did not talk about sinners. Jia Xiang is just talking about things. Even if it is not what your majesty wants, it is also out of a fair heart. I hope your majesty will be more considerate."
Jia Chaoyin is the right arm of the Empress Wu. He can't sit back and watch him be attacked by Gao Zong like this. Seeing that the situation is wrong, the Empress Wu immediately said from the side.
"Huh! That's all. This discussion can't be mentioned again. Get out!"
Since Queen Wu has opened his mouth, Gao Zong is not easy to ask Jia Chaoyin again, and he can only wave his hand impatiently. In addition to driving Jia Chaoyin away, he resolutely put an end to the possibility of Wu Chengsi taking office.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Jia Chaoyin had been unable to escape the disaster, but when he saw that Gao Zong did not attack himself again, his mind was suddenly relieved. He didn't care that his back was already sweaty and heavy clothes. He hurried to thank him. Some of them retreated aside in embarrassment and dared not have any more outrageous words and deeds.
"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend Gao Zhizhou, the imperial historian, to take over the position of Chinese calligraphy, and I would also ask your majesty to judge!"
Originally, there were only two candidates reported. Now that Wu Chengsi has no hope, Li Zhen's heart is alive, but she blinks at Li Xianba vigorously, hoping that Li Xian can stand up and open this headshot. Unfortunately, Li Xian did not react much. The old god is sitting on the brocade on the ground. Not moving, which made Li Zhen angry, but she had no choice. After a little thought, the heart of power still prevailed, which flashed from the side and reported loudly.
"Well, I know the meaning of the eighth brother, and the public will discuss it."
Gao Zong still respects Li Zhen, his brother. Although he is not very satisfied with Gao Zhizhou, he did not scold him directly as Jia Chaoyin had before, but euphemistically expressed his unfavorable intention of Gao Zhizhou.
Discuss? It's not easy to discuss this matter. There is no doubt that Gao Zong clearly disapprove of Li Zhen's recommendation. Otherwise, he will agree directly. At most, he will ask the big guy if he has any objection. However, at present, Gao Zong does not make a statement, but asks the big guy to discuss it. Isn't this obviously asking the big guy to come out and sing the opposite tune? The question is that it's really not easy to sing this opposite tune. It's not hard to offend Li Zhen face to face. The key is that there is also a co-signed prince Li Xian. Before Li Xian's statement, who really dares to talk nonsense? Isn't it because it's boring or something? Therefore, no matter how eager Gao Zong's eyes were, the assistants pretended not to see and stood still.
"Hian'er, let's talk about it."
Gao Zong waited for a long time. Seeing that no one was willing to come out to be this villain, he couldn't help but get annoyed, but it was not easy to attack everyone again. He frowned and directly clicked Li Xian's name.
Ha ha, the old man is not stupid. This is calculating us!
Although Gao Zong's mind is hidden, Li Xian knows it well. He just thought that Li Xian raised Gao Zhizhou, but in order to pull Li Zhen to fight with Wu Hou. Now Wu Chengsi has been rejected, and the two sides should have no basis for cooperation. At this time, Li Xian only needs to vaguely oppose the last one. Gao Zong took the opportunity to veto Gao Zhizhou's election. In this way, it can be regarded as the 50 boards of the Empress Wu and Li Zhen respectively, and they can be even on each other's faces.
"Father Mingjian, my son thinks that Gao Zhizhou is quite talented and understands the government affairs. He is indeed the candidate for Zaifu, but there is a slight lack of writing. In the view of the son, it is not as good as the servant of Huangmen and the three grades under the middle school, and he can participate in the discussion of political affairs. As for the position of Zhongshuling, there is no need to give up the near and seek far. All the Zaifu are all If you are a person with both virtue and talent, your father can choose one at will.
You can be a villain, but Li Xian doesn't want to really offend Li Zhen to death. After a few words, he lightly took himself out. He not only took care about Gao Zong's intention, but also did not completely brush Li Zhen's face. It is not too much to say that it is not too much to cut the two sides of the tofu. Of course, Li Xian is the face of Queen Wu. But I don't pay attention to it.
"Well, Xian'er's words are very in line with my heart, so I decided to pass on my order. Gao Zhizhou, a doctor of Jin imperial history, is the servant of Huangmen and the third grade of Zhongshumen. The remaining shortages are made up by Wu Chengsi. As for the position of Zhongshuling, I think it will be taken by Pei Yan."
Gao Zong was obviously very satisfied with Li Xian's compromise suggestion. He was afraid that the Empress Wu would intervene again and hurried to make a decision. As soon as he finished speaking, he got up and did not give everyone a chance to object.
"Your Majesty, I will abide by the order."
Gao Zong has said so. Even if all kinds of ministers have objections, they can only hold it in their own hearts. In this case, there is nothing else to do except bowing and praise...
