Yu Wenbao happily agreed, Zhao Chengyong bowed respectfully, and the two of them left Zuowuku together.
On the way, Yu Wenbao didn't know what he told Zhao Chengyong. He was very excited about what he said. Zhao Chengyong didn't talk to him, but just listened quietly.
Looking at the two of them leaving, Li Yuanji shook his head and smiled, and continued to practice martial arts.
The martial arts skills left behind by his predecessor are not weak. In addition, his body has mutated and he has practiced diligently without falling. Therefore, his martial arts skills have now reached the point where he is very familiar with them.
After shooting a bag of arrows and practicing two sets of long and short sword techniques, I only had a thin layer of sweat on my body.
After a few simple punches and kicks, today's martial arts training task was completed.
After washing up and changing into regular clothes, when we returned to Wude Hall, everyone had already started to have lunch.
He said hello to Yang Miaoyan, nodded to Wang Ruan and his wife, got close to his children, and then sat at the top of the table under the service of the female officials.
Today's lunch is very simple, only three plates of green vegetables, two plates of dry goods, two plates of meat, and a vat of mutton soup.
Except for the three plates of green vegetables, which were a bit small, the others were all very generous.
I didn't finish it until the end.
After dinner, I exchanged greetings with Yang Miaoyan, Wang Ruan and the other two, and spent some time with the children to share their family relationship and let them feel their father's love. Then they rushed to the Tai Chi Hall to review the memorial.
The earth fire dragon in the Tai Chi Hall is burning very brightly. People in it feel like they are in a furnace, and they feel like they are in the hot summer of June and July, so they don't need to wear too thick clothes, just wear a tulle.
Liu Jun presented the gauze as usual, and after Li Yuanji put it on, he began to handle government affairs.
Recently, in addition to the martial arts warriors who have been pestering Li Jing and others to fight for the opportunity for their children and grandchildren to fight, the biggest thing is that Li Xiaogong and other martial arts warriors are facing off against Ren Gui.
After Chen Shuda failed to lobby Ren Gui, Li Xiaogong led the martial arts soldiers to attack Ren Gui.
Therefore, there are many memorials to impeach Ren Gui.
From princes to uncles, everyone who had a title and was involved in the military would write a letter to impeach Ren Guibin.
Even though Ren Gui made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty and promoted rice, he was a little embarrassed under the impeachment of Li Xiaogong and other military heroes.
It is extremely common in the history of the Tang Dynasty that people like him were targeted collectively by martial artists.
He was the only one in the early Tang Dynasty.
The reason why he suffered so miserably is not that he was a treacherous and evil person. On the contrary, he was a capable minister and an official who made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty.
The reason why the warriors collectively impeached him was purely because he blocked their way.
People relied on their military exploits to gain a foothold in the Tang Dynasty, and they also relied on their military exploits to honor their ancestors.
Now that there is an opportunity to obtain military exploits, others have agreed, but you are the only one who refuses to agree. If you don’t impeach, who will you impeach?
I casually opened a memorial and took a look, and sure enough, it was Ren Gui who was impeached again.
It's just that this memorial was not written by military honors, but by civil servants, and it was written by a very important figure among civil servants.
Yang Gongren, Minister of the Ministry of Official Affairs.
Yang Gongren is the person who carries the tripod of the Hongnong Yang family's Guanwangfang lineage, and is also the spokesperson of the Hongnong Yang family in the court. Although his reputation in history is not obvious, he is not as famous as Pei Ji, Chen Shuda, Xiao Yu, Wang Gui, and Fang Xuanling.
, Du Ruhui and others are famous, but they are very important figures in the Wude Dynasty.
During the Sui Dynasty, he served as the Shaoqing of Zongzheng Temple, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Cavalry General of Zuo Zongwei. He was awarded the title of Founding Duke of Cheng'an County and quelled the rebellion of the famous Yang Xuangan.
After Yu Wenhuaji killed Yang Guang, he became the official minister of Yu Wenhua and his subordinates. In the second year of Wude, Yu Wenhua and his subordinate Yuan Baobao, the general manager of Weizhou, surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and captured him.
.
Li Yuan and he were old friends, that is, old acquaintances. Thinking of their old friendship, he appointed him as the Minister of Huangmen and the title of Duke Guan.
The word "Guan" was taken from his father, Yang Xiong, the former Sui Dynasty king of Guan.
The reason why Yang's Guanwang Yifang in Hongnong is called Guanwang is because of this.
Historically, in the sixth year of Wude's reign, he was appointed Zhongshu Ling and Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
However, because Li Yuanji's appearance has changed history, he has not yet served as Zhongshu Ling, but he is still appointed as the Minister of Personnel, in charge of the promotion and scheduling of all officials in the world.
It is said that the predecessor was able to marry Yang Miaoyan because he acted as a matchmaker.
Thinking about it, he was the Tang Dynasty who surrendered to the Tang Dynasty in the second year of Wude, and his predecessor happened to be his niece whom he married in the third year of Wude. It would be strange if there was no reason for him in this.
After all, in order to find a good wife for his predecessor, Li Yuan asked all the eight families in Guanlong, as well as the five surnames and Qiwang.
Qiwang, the fifth surname, did not give Li Yuan this face. If he did not give Li Yuan this face, Yang Miaoyan would not be able to marry into Prince Qi's palace.
However, it seems that he and Ren Gui had little contact, let alone any enmity. Why would Ren Gui be impeached?
He is one of the six most important ministers, and now he is among the civil servants. The significance of his impeachment of Ren Gui is completely different from that of Wu Xun.
The impact caused and the damage to Ren Gui were completely greater than those of Wu Xun.
After all, Ren Gui is now one of the three prime ministers. If you look at it in detail, he is Ren Gui's subordinate.
When he impeached Ren Gui, he was trying to suppress the superior.
There is also a suspicion of infighting among civil servants.
The Tang Dynasty was originally strong in military affairs and weak in civil affairs, so only the civil servants working together could compete with the military officials.
He is now helping a group of military heroes, bullying the people in his own group, and if he is not careful, he will secede from the civil servant group. Therefore, if he impeaches Ren Gui, there may not be many benefits, but there are a lot of disadvantages.
He was completely thankless.
"Go and summon Xiao Yu. I have something to ask him."
Li Yuanji couldn't understand the joints, so he had to find someone who could understand to solve the problem.
Liu Jun agreed and rushed to the three provinces in person to find Xiao Yu.
Not long after, Xiao Yu entered the Tai Chi Hall under his guidance.
"Your Majesty, Xiao Yu, meets His Highness King Yong."
Xiao Yu arrived at the palace and saluted politely.
Li Yuanji waved his hand and motioned for Xiao Yu to sit down and talk.
After Xiao Yu sat down, Li Yuanji asked straight to the point: "Mr. Xiao, I just saw a memorial to impeach Mr. Ren. I wonder if you have read it?"
Most of the memorials in the court must be read through the three provinces.
The impeachment memorial for a person of Yang Gongren's level is no exception.
Of course, with Yang Gongren's level, he could directly deliver the memorial to Taiji Hall without going through the three provinces.
The problem is that this batch of memorials were sent from three provinces.
In other words, Yang Gongren delivered the memorial to the three provinces, and then sent it to Taiji Hall from the three provinces.
The three prime ministers of the three provinces must have read his memorial.
I just don’t know how Ren Gui felt when he saw Yang Gongren’s memorial impeaching him.
However, Ren Gui did not use his privilege to suppress the memorial, but instead had it sent to him. This shows that Ren Gui did not intend to stir up trouble in the matter.
As for whether they will take revenge in private, that is a matter between Ren Gui and Yang Gongren.
When Xiao Yu heard this, he pondered for a moment and then said: "Your Highness is talking about Duke Guan Guo's impeachment of Ren Zhongshu?"
Xiao Yu now knows Shangshu, and Chen Shuda is a disciple of Shangshu. He also serves as the right servant of Shangshu and Guizhi Zhongshu.
Since Ren Gui was slightly inferior to him in terms of title, and he was at the bottom of the three prime ministers, even though he was older than him, he could not claim his title as an official. He had to lower his status and could only use his official position.
proportionate.
From what Xiao Yu said, it was obvious that he had read this memorial.
Li Yuanji asked: "I remember that there is no enmity between Duke Ren and Duke Guan Guo. Why did Duke Guan Guo impeach him?"
Xiao Yu looked embarrassed.
The people under his command began to fight each other and fight among themselves. What should he say?
However, Li Yuanji specially called him over to ask about this matter, but it was hard for him to keep asking questions and not knowing.
After thinking about it again and again, he said dryly: "Maybe Ren Zhongshu and Guan Guogong have different political ideas!"
This was obviously perfunctory.
What does it mean to have different ideas on governance?
The conflict between Yang Gongren and Ren Gui has little to do with governance.
They were in conflict because one supported the conquest of the Turks and the other did not support the conquest of the Turks.
Although it is also a state matter, it is a military matter, not a civil matter. Does it have anything to do with governance?
What, they two want to interfere in the military affairs?
Have you asked Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong, Li Jing, Li Shiji, Su Dingfang, Xie Shufang and other martial artists for their opinions?
"Mr. Xiao, I'm afraid they don't have the same political philosophy, right?"
Li Yuanji asked angrily.
Xiao Yu was even more embarrassed. He knew that he couldn't do it without pouring out some useful information, so he hesitated and said: "Maybe... Duke Guan wants to build more achievements for the Tang Dynasty..."
When Xiao Yu said this, his confidence was very low, as if he didn't want to say it.
Li Yuanji did not stupidly ask, "What does this have to do with Ren Gui?"
Xiao Yu had already talked about this, but he still didn't understand what was going on between Yang Gongren and Ren Gui.
Yang Gongren wants to make progress, but he is already six ministers
Now, the only thing left to seek is the position of the third prime minister.
But the position of the third chief had always been a carrot and a pit, and now the carrot pit was all occupied, so he set his sights on Ren Gui, trying to unseat Ren Gui and sit on it himself.
Although he didn't understand why Yang Gongren was so confident in taking down Ren Gui, he could roughly guess that the reason why Yang Gongren dared to write directly was related to the recent collective impeachment of Ren Gui by the martial arts heroes.
After all, the battle in the officialdom is not just playing house, especially the battle for the position of prime minister, which requires more caution and caution.
Usually, one or two frontmen are sent to charge into the battle, and they control the situation behind the scenes, using a small fulcrum to influence the overall situation. It is rare that they go into battle in person and go into battle shirtless.
Because he goes into battle in person and goes into battle shirtless, if he wins, he will naturally take it all, but if he loses, he will end up miserable.
Not only will you suffer brutal revenge, but you will also be laughed at by everyone for not overestimating your abilities.
Therefore, Yang Gongren dared to leave the field in person and go into battle shirtless, which only shows that he is already certain that he can move to Rengui.
