"Although Zhang Zhibai has been approved to leave the court, he has left the court. However, his reputation among the people will continue to rise. When he returns to the court, he will be the assistant to the political affairs.
And Gao Kegong fell down, and he would not think about standing up again for the rest of his life."
Kou Zhun said with great certainty.
As a member of the civil officials, Kou Ji naturally understood that Kou Zhun's words were correct.
The more famous Zhang Zhibai is, the more likely he will be to recover. In addition, he has a good relationship with Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian, which left a good impression on Zhao Zhen. It will be a matter of time before he can recover.
But Gao Gu Gong is different. Not to mention that he has already evil the government and the people. Just because he is old, it will be difficult for him to recover again.
He can no longer fight and fight, and he cannot recover with military merits.
Although the girl sent to the palace by the Gao family has a status in the palace, Zhao Zhen rarely favors her. Now that Gao Dugong hates Zhao Zhen again, Zhao Zhen is even more unlikely to favor the girl of the Gao family.
It is impossible for Gao Chugong to regain his granddaughter.
The Gao family's career within two generations has been restricted by Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian, and Zhao Zhen also acknowledged this matter.
It is impossible for Gao Chugong to recover through the credit of his children and grandchildren.
It can be said that Gao Chugong has completely cooled down.
Although Zhang Zhibai retired, he became more valuable.
Kou Zhun stared at Kou Ji and said with a smile: "You are far younger than Gao Chugong and Zhang Zhibai, and your reputation is greater than that of them, so your career has not ended because of this. It is very likely that you have just begun."
Kou Zhun was afraid that Kou Ji would be sad because of his dismissal from office, so he spoke out to instruct Kou Ji.
Kou Ji understood Kou Zhun's thoughts and said with a smile: "I was also very excited for a while, but I was able to think about it. Grandfather doesn't have to worry about me."
When Kou Zhun heard this, he laughed and said, "I want me to say that your mind is just right this time. Dismissal from office is a bad thing for others, but a great thing for you.
If you have all your official titles, your achievements will shock the master. The possibility of being unable to be granted will be reduced to the lowest level.
If you enter the court again in the future, you can show your strength."
Speaking of this, Kou Zhun said with a little regret: "I returned from the Northern Expedition with the late emperor. If I could learn from you, my head would not be harmed by a traitor."
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji and smiled again, "Actually, I should thank those traitors. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have left the court. If I didn't leave the court, I wouldn't have been discouraged and had the idea of ​​taking over the child.
If you don’t have the idea of ​​reuniting your children, you will not meet your good grandson, and you will not have achieved what you have today.”
After hearing Kou Zhun's words, Kou Ji was slightly stunned.
His head was hot, not to hide his strength or to avoid disasters that could not be sealed.
He simply felt that if a famous general like Cao Wei could not leave the curtain with the most gorgeous posture on the battlefield and was critically ill on the bed, it would become Cao Wei's lifelong regret, and the regret of the Song Dynasty and historical books.
So when he heard Cao Wei telling that his body was not as good as before, he would be so passionate and choose to fight Gao Cugong and the Wei Prince's Mansion.
However, Kou Ji did not explain much to Kou Zhun, but just followed Kou Zhun's thoughts and catered to Kou Zhun's ideas.
The grandparents and grandchildren chatted happily.
The waves in Bianjing City were turbulent, but even more violent.
Cao Wei had a stir at the entrance of the Liao Kingdom Inn and lit a fire before the fire spread to the entire city of Bianjing.
Another fire rose from the Wei Palace.
Chen Lin, Li Zhaoliang and others were searching for a long time in the villa of the Wei Wang Mansion.
Finally, a huge secret room was found, which was filled with tattered armor, with more than 10,000 pieces.
Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian personally rushed to the other courtyard of the Wei Wang Mansion lineage, checked the armor, and immediately sent people to capture the Wei Wang Mansion lineage.
They not only sent people to capture the Wei royal family lineage in Bianjing City, but also sent people to capture the Wei royal family lineage in Fangling.
More than 10,000 pieces of broken armor were moved out of the Wei Wang Mansion's courtyard and turned into more than 10,000 pieces of renovated armor.
Chen Lin and Li Zhaoliang, wearing more than 10,000 armors, swam across the market, and were seen by the people of Bianjing City.
News of the Wei royal family intending to rebel spread throughout Bianjing City in an instant.
When the Wei royal family was captured, the people rushed to watch and applauded.
You should know that when the Eight Kings rebelled and the King of Chu burned the palace, the court sent people to investigate the residences of the two of them, and the people did not applaud.
Although the Eight Kings are unbearable, he has worked hard to manage his reputation for decades, so he has a good reputation among the people.
The King of Chu did not often appear in front of others, and the people in the King of Chu's Mansion were very low-key under his restraint. Therefore, the people in the King of Chu's Mansion had never done many things that harmed the country and the people, so the King of Chu still had a reputation among the people.
The Wei Wang Mansion was investigated and the people applauded. It can be seen that after the Wei Wang Mansion entered Bianjing City, it has been done so many days of anger and resentment in just a few months.
Therefore, the lineage of the Wei Prince's Mansion was investigated, which was in line with public opinion.
No one went to explore the real source of the armor in the villa of the Prince of Wei's Mansion, and no one went to explore the reason why the armor was suddenly renovated.
Even if some people who are interested in trying to find out the bottom line, they don’t have a chance.
Because people from the Wei royal family in Bianjing City had not been arrested, it was reported one after another that Gao Kugong was dismissed from office, Zhang Zhibai was dismissed from office, and Kou Ji was dismissed from office.
Three important officials who controlled real power, one of whom was a famous figure, was deposed together, which completely inspired the city of Bianjing.
The people inside and outside Bianjing City were completely shocked.
They ran around to inquire about the inside story of the dismissal of the three real-time officials, and they had no intention of caring about the life or death of the Wei Prince's Mansion.
Compared to the Wei royal family lineage that fell from the sky, the people paid more attention to three real-powered officials who were very close to them.
Things that happened in the Zishi Hall were inevitably spread.
The rumors were very true, and almost restored what had happened in the Zishi Hall.
So.
The reputation of the Gao family and the Wei royal family has become inauspicious.
The reputation of Kou Ji and Zhang Zhibai rose sharply.
The people said bluntly that the two were good officials who were not afraid of power and benefited the people.
For the sake of the people, gamble on the career path can be said to be a good official who is rare in a century.
Some of the strong-willed people felt that the court was unfair, and even risked their lives to run to the palace gate, preparing to beat the drums and help Kou Ji and Zhang Zhibai scream.
In just three days.
The people who helped Kou Ji and Zhang Zhibai arrested a total of a hundred people.
Some people may find it incredible.
But this was indeed a very common thing in the Song Dynasty.
The officials of the Song Dynasty were all very generous to the people.
I wanted to expand the palace, but I was afraid of damaging the people's houses and causing public grievances, so I decided to give up.
It’s hot in summer and I’m afraid that the people will have heatstroke. Not only will the decoctions be given, but also the occasional ice cubes.
It’s cold in winter, and I’m afraid that the people will be frozen, so I give them charcoals and firewood.
I am afraid of killing the people without permission, so every death row prisoner must undergo several inspections and confirm that there are really no omissions before I will start a trial and accusation.
If you have the opportunity to have a general amnesty, your sentence will be delayed.
Many officials and wealthy families in Bianjing City are afraid of them, but they are not afraid of the royal family.
...
Kou Ji sat in front of the brazier, staring at Kou Tianci sitting on the desk beside him, and said very seriously: "Call him dad..."
Kou Tianci is one year old and can make a single sound in ambiguous way.
Under Xiang Yan's guidance, Kou Tianci was able to vaguely call out words like "Master" and "Mother".
Kou Zhun is from Huazhou. In Huazhou, the single word "女" means grandfather.
After Kou Zhun heard Kou Tianci calling him "Master", he was so excited that he didn't care about confusing his seniority. He pulled Kou Tianci and made Kou Tianci shout for a long time.
It was not until Kou Tianci cried that he left Kou Mansion Villa with his beard with pride.
Before leaving, I complained that I had already beaten Qiufeng for the royal family once, so it was hard to fight. Otherwise, I would have to take Kou Tianci into the palace to fight Qiufeng for some rewards.
The mansion can be regarded as the elder Kou Tianci, even Kou Tianci can shout.
But I don't want to call me "Dad".
Kou Ji looked at Kou Zhun, who was full of pride and Xiang Yan was so jealous.
He decisively snatched Kou Tianci's ownership from Xiang Yan, and pulled Kou Tianci, insisting on teaching Kou Tianci to learn to call his father.
However, Kou Tianci probably did not match his horoscope.
He taught for a day, but there was no movement.
He even took advantage of him once.
"Call dad..."
“…”
"Follow me to learn, dad..."
“…”
"father……"
"Oh~"
Kou Ji glared at him in shock.
Liu Heng, who had just entered the door, also glared at him in shock.
The only one was Kou Tianci, looking around with a confused look on his face, not knowing that he had just done something that would be struck by lightning.
After Liu Heng was slightly shocked, he spoke in disbelief, "Is the Fourth Brother crazy about gaining and losing his heart?"
Kou Ji's old face turned black.
Liu Heng murmured in a low voice, "I called my son dad, my son agreed, it was the first time I saw him..."
Kou Ji's face turned darker and said in a heavy tone: "I'm just teaching my son to call him dad."
Liu Heng was stunned for a moment and was about to speak.
Then Kou Ji said decisively: "If you don't arrest those officials who have collusions with the Prince of Wei's Mansion, why do you go to our Kou Mansion?"
Kou Ji was afraid that Liu Heng would say something embarrass him, so he decisively changed the subject.
When Liu Heng heard Kou Ji's words, his face felt slightly bitter and said, "Can you send someone to come with me?"
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
Liu Heng smiled bitterly and said, "There are more than a hundred people who have asked for your orders and Mr. Zhang. They are now in prison and refuse to leave, and they do not eat or drink. If they continue to waste, they may die."
Kou Ji said with an unexpected look: "Please give me your life?"
Liu Heng nodded and said, "If you don't leave the mansion, you naturally don't know how many righteous men are willing to sacrifice their lives for you two after your words and deeds in the Zishi Hall were passed down."
Kou Ji was even more surprised, "My reputation is so great that someone is willing to die for me?"
Liu Heng curled his lips and said nothing.
Kou Ji asked, "Did you arrest the man by the Imperial City Office?"
Liu Heng nodded with a bitter face, "The Ministry of Justice is afraid of being criticized, so is the case with Kaifeng Prefecture. The people in the Inspection Department are even more deaf and dumb. We can only arrest our Imperial City Department. Anyway, our Imperial City Department is just a matter of hatred."
Kou Ji nodded slowly, "Since they are innocent, teach them and let them go."
"The problem is that they stayed in the cell of my Imperial City Department and refused to leave, nor did they eat or drink. I could not have cut them all down like I did to others, right?"
Liu Heng's face became even more bitter, "If I really cut them down, the people in Bianjing City will be filled with grievances. At that time, the government will inevitably use me to calm the anger of the people."
Kou Ji thought for a while and pondered: "I'll ask the manager of the mansion to accompany you, bring some food to reward them."
Liu Heng nodded decisively.
Kou Ji ordered the servant to go and send a message to the kitchen and ask the kitchen to prepare food.
After the servant goes down.
Liu Heng hesitated for a moment and said, "There is one thing I don't understand. Can the Fourth Brother help me solve my doubts?"
Kou Ji was slightly stunned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Liu Heng asked: "How did the armor from the Wei royal family come up with it? This matter has become a hot topic in the court, but no one has given a clear answer to this day.
It seems that no one except the fourth brother knows about this."
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, but did not answer Liu Heng's question, but asked back: "How did you discuss it in the court?"
Liu Heng admitted: "Some people say that the armor was in that villa early, some people say that you framed it, and some people say that it was brought in when Chen Lin and Li Zhaoliang were searching...
Some people even say that it was an armor that the Wei royal family had long been prepared for rebellion.
There are only four statements at present, but many people don’t believe the last statement.”
Kou Ji nodded slowly, glanced at Liu Heng and said, "Do you want to know?"
Liu Heng nodded.
Kou Ji continued: "So far, only four people know about this. Are you sure you want to know?"
Liu Heng was stunned when he heard this and shook his head decisively.
Kou Ji mentioned four people, so who is Liu Heng can roughly infer who it is.
Chen Lin is the first to bear the brunt.
Someone in Bianjing City hid more than 10,000 armors, and Chen Lin's men could not have known it.
In terms of well-informed information, few people can compare with Chen Lin.
Since Chen Lin knew, Zhao Zhen, as his master, must also know it.
Kou Ji obviously knew it too.
The identity of the remaining person must be very important.
The secret that only four people knew was the real secret in the Song Dynasty.
Since it is the real secret, Liu Heng feels that he still doesn't know.
Liu Heng was no longer curious, so he didn't ask about this matter again.
He chatted with Kou Ji for a while. After the chef of Kou Mansion's house had finished the food, Liu Heng took the Kou Mansion's manager and left Kou Mansion with the food.
After Liu Heng left.
Kou Ji took off a jade pendant from Kou Tianci's neck, played with it casually, and muttered: "It's just a group of lonely ghosts. The officials can really guess, they're so idle..."
The armor in the private courtyard of the King of Wei’s Mansion originated from the jade pendant on Kou Tianci’s neck.
Chapter completed!
