It was also on this afternoon that Gao Zunyu, the uncle of the Queen Mother, who was living idle in Taipingfang, heard news from his son Gao Shichong that shocked him to the extreme.
"Wang Yuyu really said that?" Gao Zunyu couldn't believe his ears.
"Sir, it's true!" Gao Shichong raised his head proudly.
Unexpectedly, what he was waiting for was not a reward from his father, but a cane. Gao Zunyu's cane hit him on the head, leaving him with a bloody head.
"Sir!" Gao Shichong covered his forehead and immediately knelt down.
"If you dare to interact with the Wang family again, I will beat you to death!" Gao Zunyu said with a serious look on his face, his face ashen.
Gao Shichong was so frightened that he could only cover his forehead, kowtow and say: "My son knows!"
"Get out of here!" Gao Zunyu shouted angrily.
Gao Shichong crawled out of Gao Zunyu's study.
Gao Zunyu looked at his son's back and shook his head: "You traitor, you idiot!"
His family is a foreign relative!
Is it necessary to do this kind of thing with your head tied to your belt?
Then Wang Yuyu also lost his head!
How dare you ask him such a thing!
Who does the Queen Mother prefer?
Is this what you, a minister, should ask?
Even if Wang Yuyu takes ten thousand steps back, what can he do if he really knows the Queen Mother's intentions?
How many people can you call upon if you have three edicts?
Who is willing to follow the ministers of the three provinces and two governments?
Is Yan Da, the commander-in-chief of Sanya Palace, willing to listen to him?
Which one of the old party in Luoyang, Wang Anshi brothers in Jiangning, Lu Huiqing in Hedong, Li Xian in Xihe, and Wang Yuyu can command and move?
joke!
In Gao Zunyu's view, there is no difference between Wang Yuyu and seeking death.
The Wang family has one foot on the edge of the cliff!
He could be shattered to pieces at any time and at any time - as long as Gao Zunyu stepped forward and reported today's incident to the court, Wang Gui would have no choice but to commit suicide to apologize tomorrow.
pity……
Gao Zunyu shook his head.
If he takes the lead, Wang Gui will naturally die.
But Gao Shichong is also bound to die!
Even Gao Zunyu and the Gao family will be implicated, and it may even cause a serious impact.
No matter whether it is the new party or the old party, it is impossible to miss this opportunity.
Gao Zunyu didn’t dare and couldn’t do this!
…
That night, Wang Gui dragged his exhausted body back home from the Daqing Hall. In the past few days, the ministers of the three provinces and two prefectures had to go to the Daqing Hall every night to participate in the blessing ceremony in the Daqing Hall.
Before Wang Gui had time to take a breath, he received news from his son that was almost a bolt from the blue for him.
The Gao family completely and completely cut off contact with Wang Zhongxiu.
Wang Yan, who was patting his chest in assurance in the first place, has also disappeared.
Gao Shichong couldn't even be found.
As for punishment and forgiveness?
People pat their butts and pretend it didn't happen at all.
When Wang Gui heard the news, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his limbs all became stiff.
"Sir..." Wang Zhongxiu lowered his head: "What should we do?"
As he spoke, he was about to cry.
The Gao family are relatives.
There are countless escape routes for relatives!
And the Wang family? Once something happens, they will die without a burial place!
I just thought that the wolf-like imperial army might drag everyone out of the palace at any time.
Wang Zhongxiu trembled all over and regretted it!
"Why are you panicking?" Wang Gui scolded: "Things haven't gotten out of hand yet!"
"Otherwise, at this very moment, you and I should be in prison!"
"Gao Zunyu doesn't have the guts to show off!"
"Yes..." Wang Gui murmured to himself: "If he had the courage, how could he be so timid?"
"But, we have to guard against it!"
After Wang Gui walked a few steps, he gritted his teeth and said to Wang Zhongxiu: "For the current plan, the only way to avoid disaster is to muddy the water!"
Wang Gui had been in high and low officialdom for decades. He had experienced the Puyi disputes during the Zhiping period, the Xining Reform, the turmoil of Wang Anshi's two visits to the prime minister, Yuanfeng's restructuring, the Five-Road Expedition to Xia, the Yongle City War, etc.
A series of complicated things, but he still stands firm.
He is still the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty and the Duke of Xi!
Outsiders can laugh at him for having three decrees, and they can say that he is the land of Tokyo.
However, Wang Gui's intelligence and dexterity cannot be underestimated.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to survive the waves of so many years.
The same is true now. In the crisis, Wang Gui keenly grasped the chance of survival.
What should I do if I don’t want people to talk about what I do?
The answer is to throw out a shocking enough news to attract everyone's attention.
Now, what things can stir up people's hearts the most? What things can stimulate the government and the opposition the most?
Wang Gui only took one step and came up with the answer—Minister!
Find a minister who has enough weight and important enough status to come out and push him in front of everyone.
So, who is the most suitable?
It only took Wang Gui a second to come up with the answer.
After the envoy of Gyeongbokgung Palace and Wu Xin's army stayed, he entered the capital as the deputy governor and made a plan to appease the envoy Li Xian of Xihelanhui Road!
Even though Li Xian had just won a big victory!
Even though, in the past two years, Li Xian had led the Lanzhou Campaign in Xihe and made great achievements, winning five battles in Lanzhou and winning five times!
Moreover, in the first month of last year, when the leader of the Western Bandits, Bingchang, used his whole country to attack Lanzhou, claiming to have 800,000 men, he still held on to Lanzhou City. Not only did he defend Lanzhou City, he also killed and wounded hundreds of thousands of bandits and beheaded them.
There were more than 50,000, and the number of heads cut off was enough to build a temple in Beijing to show off their martial arts.
After this battle, the Western thieves no longer dared to covet Lanzhou city defense.
But, but, so what?
Li Xian is a minister!
Moreover, he was the most trusted minister of the official family, and also the most distinguished and outstanding minister of the Song Dynasty.
As long as you pull him out, the attention of the entire world and the entire court will be attracted!
No one will care about Wang Gui's little actions anymore.
Thinking of this, Wang Gui raised his head and made a decision.
He came to his study and found the old year in the study. He wrote a letter to the officials, asked for transfer, and criticized Li Xian's writings - these things are what the title should mean. The internal ministers are outside and have heavy troops.
, No matter how outstanding your military exploits are, no matter how high your merits are, you should still be suppressed, criticized, and discriminated against!
It would be abnormal for the prime minister not to do this.
Now, Wang Gui has brought out these things that were used in the past to serve as false stories.
Today, when the official family is seriously ill, these things will become his trump card, Wang Gui, and will also become the clarion call to launch an attack on Li Xian.
Even if Wang Gui knew in his heart, what would be the consequences of doing so?
The consequence is that as long as he succeeds.
Then, Li Xian and those generals with great military exploits under Li Xian will all be labeled and become different from now on.
As long as he succeeds, the victories and military exploits of Lanzhou's five battles will all be ignored, despised or even erased.
But, so what?
The one who rolls call outside Donghua Gate is a good man!
If you want to blame, blame it, you don't have a Jinshi background. If you want to blame, blame it, you are not civil servants and officials!
Wang Gui quickly found what he wanted in these words.
A sharp arrow shot at Li Xian!
…
Note: The long continuation of Zizhi Tongjian quotes several records of Shenzong compiled during the Zhezong period.
Each one points to the same thing.
Wang Gui sent someone to ask Gao Zunyu who the Queen Mother wanted to appoint. Gao Zunyu scolded him angrily.
Especially Gao Zunyu's son, Gao Shijing reported during the reign of Shaosheng: When the late Emperor Zunyu took medicine and was in danger... he cried angrily: How dare you do this, traitorous minister! The country has its own orthodoxy, why should it depend on me? Then he scolded his younger brother.
Shi Chong: If you dare to go further, I will kill you!
Note 2: A strange thing is recorded in the long continuation of Zi Zhi Tong Jian. First, around February 16, Li Xian was rewarded for his military exploits and promoted the generals who attacked Xixia. The reward was very heavy. Soon, within ten days, he
They began to discuss inexplicably that Li Xian's report last year was false.
It gives people the feeling of being insane, but considering the situation at the time and Wang Gui's subsequent performance in related matters, it can be roughly inferred that Wang Gui was deceiving others.
Note 3: "Three Imperial Edicts", Wang Gui's nickname among the scholar-bureaucrats, because as prime minister, he only did three things: requesting imperial edicts, obtaining imperial edicts, and announcing imperial edicts. Tokyo Land: the nickname given to Wang Gui by the people of Bianjing,
At that time, people in Bianjing City described Wang Gui as the earth in the earth temple and the heavenly king in the monk temple. There was also a folk song: Yu Yu Yu Yu is full of spirit, except for being empty, and has all the ten characteristics! The irony of Wang Gui is that there are
On the surface, it does nothing.
