His Majesty Li Er does not want to see the Taoist sect being suppressed by the Buddhists and unable to hold its head high. This is related to the foundation of the rule of the Li and Tang royal families, but it is not easy to intervene simply and crudely. Suppressing one faction and supporting another will damage the image of the court's fairness and integrity.
, will inevitably attract criticism.
Buddhism has a far-reaching influence and has a large number of followers. Once the impression of dissatisfaction with the imperial court is planted, the gain is really not worth the loss.
Fang Jun's so-called addition of an yamen to specifically manage the world's sects coincides with His Majesty Li Er's deep intention, which is to adopt the method of court management and make minor interventions in seemingly fair situations. As long as it is done properly, it will be enough.
To achieve a balance between the two major sects.
Controlling this power of faith in the hands of the imperial court is the perfect strategy...
His Majesty Li Er nodded slowly, looked around, and asked: "My dear friends, what do you think of this method?"
Everyone couldn't find any flaws and they all agreed. Even the company commander Sun Wuji remained silent and didn't say anything to refute.
His Majesty Li Er is very satisfied. This proves that everyone has seen the harm caused by sects and can abandon their prejudices and seek common ground while reserving differences in the face of harm. This is a good thing.
He asked again: "In this case, after the meeting tomorrow, the political affairs hall will draw up the specifications for the establishment of this yamen, and all yamen will fully cooperate with it. In addition, is there anyone who can serve as the chief executive of this yamen?"
Everyone looked at each other and weighed in their minds for a moment without saying anything.
Fang Jun looked around and said: "Your Majesty, one of my ministers has recommended Li Yifu, the magistrate of Wannian County. He is the first in the imperial examination. He has a distinguished literary talent, a quick mind, is rigorous, and is diligent in affairs. He will definitely be qualified for the job."
."
"Li Yifu?"
His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and thought about this person. He seemed to have a little impression, but it was not profound. There were hundreds of civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty, and there were hundreds and eighty of them above the sixth rank. A mere county magistrate with ten thousand years' history was not that impressive.
He may appear in front of the king from time to time, and it is really difficult for the king to have an impression of him.
On the other side, Changsun Wuji had already spoken out: "I think it's inappropriate, old minister! During the imperial examination in Li Yifu, due to negligence, he wore less clothes, so Fang Shaobao took off his clothes and gave them to him. There was a good story. Later,
This person obeyed Fang Shaobao's words and followed his lead. Although he did not avoid relatives when promoting talents, the people in Li Yifu were cunning, slippery, frivolous, attached to the powerful, servile and servile. He is not a gentleman, so he should not take on such an important task!"
The political hall suddenly fell silent.
Everyone knew that Changsun Wuji and Fang Jun couldn't urinate in the same pot, and they were deeply grudged and entangled with each other. However, Changsun Wuji's strong opposition still exceeded everyone's expectations.
After all, you are also a dignified Duke of Zhao, and you are a prince of the imperial dynasty. Isn’t it too ugly to go into battle so shirtless?
In fact, how could Changsun Wuji not know that his behavior would arouse ridicule?
But he had nothing to do. Now there was no one close to him in the political hall. No one obeyed his orders to charge into battle, and he was determined not to let Fang Jun's people take the position. What could he do if he didn't go into battle himself?
As for Li Yifu...
Haha, no one in the world knows that this person has a close relationship with Fang Junzhi, but he went to Jin Prince's palace to show his hospitality, with the intention of surrendering himself. Who knows whether this was behind Fang Jun's instruction, with the intention of breaking into Jin Prince's palace?
Do you know all the plans of King Jin?
Even though we are not certain, we absolutely cannot take such risks.
He just wanted to step on Li Yi's mansion and let the civil and military officials in the court see that Fang Jun's lackey was his Changsun Wuji's enemy. Even if he went into battle naked, even if he didn't have any shame, he would still be trampled to death.
!
As for whether Li Yifu is Fang Jun's person or not, it doesn't matter at all, as long as he used to be!
Want to get on top?
Then step on my corpse and turn it over!
His Majesty Li Er did not expect that Changsun Wuji's opposition would be so fierce. He was just a sixth-grade county magistrate, so what?
Of course, he can suppress the Guanlong clan and alienate Changsun Wuji, but in this political hall, under the watchful eyes of all the prime ministers and assistants, he must save some face for Changsun Wuji no matter what, and there is no need to pay for someone who is almost nothing.
The impression is that the sixth-rank official refuted Changsun Wuji's face, even though this candidate was recommended by Fang Jun...
Speaking of which, it is already beyond the limit for Fang Jun to be able to sit here today. For an official who is not even qualified to participate in government affairs, is it strange that the candidate he recommended was refuted?
After pondering for a while, His Majesty Li Er said: "My dear friends, do you have a more suitable candidate?"
Xiao Yu said: "Prince Zhan Shi, can Zhang Xingcheng do it?"
His Majesty Li Er thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Zhang Xingchen was a servant of the minister, with outstanding abilities and honest virtues. He only retired because he was ill at the time. Now he is well recuperated and recovering well. He is a suitable candidate."
.My dear friends, do you have any objections?"
Changsun Wuji said: "I think it's acceptable."
He couldn't catch anyone and bite him. As a "yin man", he should lead without firing, and hit with one strike. Today, he had no choice but to go into battle shirtless. If he caught Xiao Yu and sprayed him again, it would be counterproductive.
Furthermore, this yamen, which manages sects all over the world, has great powers and responsibilities, and it must have a lot of officials and scribes. You can sell it to Xiao Yu now as a favor, and then discuss it with other merchants and compromise, and finally everyone can do it.
There is profit sharing, and everyone is happy.
When selecting candidates for the Hanhai Protectorate and the Beiting Protectorate, the two families cooperated happily and each got what they needed...
Cen Wenwen also said: "Yes."
Li Ji also nodded in agreement, while Liu Ji and others remained silent and did not express their opinions. But it was no longer important. The big bosses agreed together, so the candidate was approved. As for the subsequent appointment of officials and scribes, the emperor
There is no need to worry. The ministers and ministers of the Political Affairs Hall will discuss it and make a decision and submit it to the emperor for reading. As long as there is no candidate who they particularly want to use or don’t particularly want to use, they will basically not be changed.
Between the monarch and his ministers, we must also treat each other with sincerity and trust...
The one who was most disappointed was Fang Jun. Not only was he slapped by Changsun Wuji when he entered the door, he lost his face. Even the candidate he proposed was refuted. It seemed like he was a complete defeat.
Seeing Fang Jun walk out with a gloomy face, Changsun Wuji felt very happy...
It wasn't until he left the political hall that Fang Jun stood on the stone steps at the door, looked up, and then walked calmly outside the palace.
Li Yifu is like a poisonous snake, which is more than one level more harmful than Xu Jingzong. This kind of people cannot be subdued, otherwise they may be bitten by them at any time. Even if they cannot be trampled to death, their path to the top must be cut off.
.
Not only that, but he must be firmly under control, and he must not be given a chance to turn over...
*****
"Is this happening? Oops, Fang Shaobao made a mistake on me!"
The next day, Li Yifu, Fang Yizhi and others had a gathering. When they suddenly heard about yesterday's confrontation in the political hall, they suddenly shouted and looked depressed.
Matters in the political hall involving imperial military aircraft are supposed to be kept secret from the outside world, but there will always be some gossip leaked out from time to time. Although it has nothing to do with the central decision-making, everything seems to involve some secrets.
For example, Fang Jun was caught by Changsun Wuji in the political hall and he was yelled at. His face was completely lost. For example, Fang Jun recommended his disciple Li Yifu, but was refuted by Changsun Wuji. The emperor and all the ministers and ministers in the hall were silent, and no one
Talk to Fang Jun...
In short, the impression that Fang Jun was suppressed and lost his prestige was exaggerated, and everyone in the government and the public knew that even though Fang Jun was still powerful, he could not play with the imperial center such as Zhengshitang.
Turned.
As for the source of the news leak...it's naturally a matter of opinion.
Hearing Li Yifu's shouting, Fang Yizhi on the side was immediately unhappy and frowned: "Erlang is helping you, and he can recommend you in front of His Majesty and the Prime Minister. How much trust does this have? Even if
Being refuted this time must be due to the inappropriateness of the move, but it left an impression in the eyes of His Majesty and the ministers. If there is such an opportunity next time, the chance of success will be greatly increased. If you don't know good people, you will be wrong.
That’s all, how can you complain?”
He is an upright person and has always disdained the intrigues in the court. But after all, he was born in the Fang family, and he is somewhat proficient in the ways of officialdom under his influence.
In his opinion, no one can be appointed upon recommendation. As long as his name can appear in the emperor's ears, he is afraid that he will not have a chance in the future?
Besides, it is Changsun Wuji who is refuting you this time. Instead of blaming Changsun Wuji, why are you blaming Qi Erlang for coming? You really don’t know the heart of a good person...
Li Yifu looked at Fang Yizhi who looked unhappy, he had something in his heart but couldn't say it out.
Brother, you are so naive. No wonder your Fang family lets you, the eldest son and grandson, do whatever you want, while letting the second Fang be the head of the family.
Is your brother helping me?
That simply cut off my escape route completely and harmed me openly!
