Chapter 317 Falling in love and killing each other(1/2)
Why.
Why me again?
Originally, this was just a trivial matter, but it happened at this time. Gu Ji, who was already panicking, was about to collapse. How could these things come together at the same time? He quickly ordered his cronies at Taifu Temple to investigate secretly.
this matter.
Now he doesn't dare to speak out.
This is so fucking exciting.
In the end, it is tribute peaches, not grain, so it is easier to check.
Within two days, it was found out that it really came from Taifu Temple. This batch of tribute peaches totaled two thousand catties.
When Gu Ji learned about this, he was furious and shouted, "Who asked you to take it out and sell it?"
The manager of the warehouse looked aggrieved: "Back to Zangu Temple, we can't be blamed for this. We have always dealt with it this way, treating the rotten tribute fruits and then selling them to merchants.
, give everyone some money for tea.
The businessman originally said he was going to sell them in Luoyang, but who would have thought that he found that the tribute peaches were going to spoil soon, so he changed hands on the spot."
"you.."
Gu Ji pointed at the warehouse manager, not knowing what to say.
Because this is actually the unwritten rule of Taifu Temple.
The imperial court has regulations that if there are too many tributes, some can be sold appropriately.
But the money from the sale originally belonged to the imperial court.
However, some food tributes may rot because they are not processed in time, and there is a lot of trouble in this.
Officials of Taifu Temple usually sell the tribute items that are about to rot, and then put them in the books as rotten. Anyway, if they are not sold, they will be left here to rot, and the money will go into the pockets of the officials below.
The manager of the warehouse said: "I think the Valley Temple incident is not a big deal, and no one was killed. On weekdays, rotten fruits can be seen everywhere."
"Having said that, at this time..."
Gu Ji waved his hand: "You don't understand what I'm telling you. In this case, you quickly go find the businessman and ask him to take some money to replenish those who bought rotten peaches. You must calm down the trouble for me. I'll go
Talk to Superintendent Cao."
"Yes!" the warehouse manager asked sarcastically, "What should the businessman do if he refuses to pay?"
Gu Ji bulged his eyes and reprimanded: "If you don't want to pay, you can pay me. Do you want money or your life?"
"Yes, yes! I'll do it right now."
The warehouse manager ran out in a hurry.
Gu Ji immediately went to Cao Ping and informed Cao Ping of the situation, because everyone knew about the situation in Taifu Temple and it was not a secret.
Since it was a tribute and related to the royal family, Cao Ping, as a relative, naturally did not want to make this matter a big deal.
But now that the court was in turmoil again, Cao Ping didn't want to get himself involved, so he told Gu Ji that the police station should try not to investigate, and you should resolve it privately.
After receiving Cao Ping's reply, Gu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, but it also strengthened his belief in opposing the new law.
It made people really panic.
However, since Sima Guang and Wen Yanbo had reservations about losing the law, the opposition gradually concentrated around the procuratorate.
Because at present, only the procuratorate can directly block the new law, because as long as prosecutions are instituted, the implementation of the new law must be suspended.
Then the government will start a trial, which will take a lot of time.
The most important thing is that both Fan Chunren and Su Shi are very determined to sue these two losers.
Although they also know that it is basically difficult to win, they want to give it a try to see if the procuratorate can supervise this new law.
It doesn't matter if you lose, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't last too long.
At least it can be proven that the procuratorate has the power to prosecute administrative orders.
This is very critical.
And when you go to court to litigate, you can ask a lot of questions.
They calculated over and over again, even if they lost, it was still a sure profit.
Now we are waiting to see when Wang Anshi will issue a decree.
Only if the content of the article forms a government order can they file a lawsuit.
Fortunately, Wang Anshi was also in a hurry.
After some publicity, Wang Anshi showed Zhao Xu the finalized decree of Junshufa.
"I have already read the article that Mr. Sir published in the celebrity newspaper. I am greatly impressed by Mr.'s talent."
Zhao Xu still looked like a little fanboy. He admired the regulations formulated by Wang Anshi, but then he said: "But I heard that many ministers in the court are very opposed to this."
Wang Anshi wrote lightly: "Throughout the past dynasties, when it comes to reforms, there will always be opposition from the central government. This has nothing to do with whether the new law is good or bad, but only those who are deeply benefited by the old system and do not want to lose those benefits. Your Majesty does not need to pay attention to it.
"
Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Should we discuss political affairs with the other counselors?"
Wang Anshi immediately said: "Your Majesty, could it be that you have forgotten why you established the Ordinance Department of the Second Government in the first place? Isn't it just to better implement the new law? If it needs to be reviewed by the Government Council, then there is no need to set up another Ordinance Department of the Second Government.
At that time, if someone in the Government Hall expresses objection, how should His Majesty make a decision? If His Majesty agrees and has no doubts, he can directly promulgate it from the Ordinance Department of the Second Government. This will determine whether the Ordinance Department of the Second Government is the new government.
The core of.”
Zhao Xu thought for a while and felt that this was the case. The purpose of setting up the Ordinance Department of the Second Government was to bypass the Government Hall, the Privy Council, and the Third Department. He went to consult with the Councilors and Political Affairs Bureau, which was equivalent to replacing the Second Government and the Third Department.
The Secretary came in and set up the Ordinance Department of the second government to check and balance the situation.
Isn't this just taking off your pants and farting? Isn't it unnecessary?
Wang Anshi added: "I can't guarantee that if the new policy is promulgated, it will be smooth sailing and there will be no problems at all. Therefore, I will implement this equalization method in the Jianghuai Sixth Road first. If there are no major problems, then it will be popularized nationwide."
Zhao Xu nodded and said: "Sir, you have really thought it through, and your article has already solved my confusion. I have no doubts. But I don't know who you intend to recommend as the shipping envoy?"
Wang Anshi said: "Xue Xiang, deputy envoy of Shaanxi transportation."
"Xue Xiang?"
Zhao Xu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "I have always admired this man's talent. I have read his fifteen chapters of "Profits and Disadvantages of the Western Frontier" and "Five Benefits of the Imperial Border" more than once. To be honest, sir, I have recently read
I also want to reuse him. Well, I will appoint Xue Xiang as envoy to preside over the transfer of law. You can also act expediently, and I will fully support you."
Faced with Zhao Xu's trust, Wang Anshi naturally burst into tears of gratitude. He immediately gave him a great gift and made a promise that he would live up to the emperor's kindness and make the Song Dynasty rich and powerful.
Let's talk about the situation. If the emperor still had doubts about the reform at the beginning, it would be better not to change. Song Renzong has already set an example. In fact, under the Qingli New Deal, Song Renzong didn't want to change at all. He was just forced to do so. There was no way.
, only then decided to reform.
As a result, in less than half a year, it ended without any cure, and the court was left in a state of chaos.
Zhao Xu can't make the same mistake again. The key is that he still has a hidden agenda.
At this time, he could support Wang Anshi without any worries.
After returning, Wang Anshi immediately used the name of establishing the Ordinance Department of the Second Government to promulgate the Uniform Law.
I have to say that this really caught the second government and the third division by surprise.
Political Hall.
Wen Yanbo threw the Di newspaper in his hand on the table, "That's great. For such a big matter, we political advisors can only learn about it from the Di newspaper. Haha."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Anshi walked in from outside.
Wen Yanbo immediately turned his head and disappeared.
Sima Guang immediately went to his desk to write, as if he didn't see Wang Anshi come in.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mr. Lu quickly said: "Wang Jiefu, you should at least discuss this important matter with us."
The second and third departments of their government were really completely beaten.
It was really unkind.
Wang Anshi said hurriedly: "I am thinking about you all."
Lu Gongzhu glanced at Wen Yanbo and Sima Guang and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
Wang Anshi said: "I have published this article in the Celebrity Newspaper before. If you have any opinions, you will naturally come to me to discuss it, but after so many days, no one has come to me to discuss it.
In addition, I also know that many officials are dissatisfied with this. If I discuss it with you and you agree, it will not involve you, but will put you in a dilemma."
Sima Guang couldn't listen anymore. He didn't blush after saying this. He raised his head and asked, "What if we object?"
Wang Anshi said: "If your objections are justified, then I will listen."
Sima Guang asked: "I thought that the shipping envoy was responsible for all affairs, and no one among them could supervise me. What do you think?"
Wang Anshi couldn't help but sigh: "Not many people have come to trouble me for this matter these days. I have been keeping silent for your sake, Sima Junshi, but you are questioning me like this. I...sigh...!"
When he talked about it later, his face was filled with grievances.
To be continued...
