Shen Tang, Liu Xiangling, the iron-blooded traitor in the Southern Song Dynasty Chapter 1347: The position of the privy envoy, the dispute in the court

Chapter 1347: Privy Council position, disputes in the court
Moreover, he restored the world-famous Yuelu Academy and was an undisputed academic leader! Even Zhu Xi, Lu Zuqian and others who were famous for later generations had to salute Liu Gong and say "clan leader" when they saw him.
If you can make good friends with him, at least Shen Tang will have enough help in the literary world.
There is another most important reason, that is, the relationship between Liu Gong and Zhang Shi is very good. After he restored Yuelu Academy, Zhang Shi was in charge! And Zhang Shi was the son of Zhang Jun! With the relationship between Shen Tang and Zhang Jun It is not difficult for Shen Tang to have a good relationship with him.
As for the other Wei Qi, he was a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Shaoxing. During the Shaoxing period, he went to the Kingdom of Jin several times! Even when facing the Emperor of Jin, he dared to make impassioned speeches. Faced with unequal conditions, he would rather face the Jin Dynasty. Even though people threatened to go on a hunger strike, they still spoke generously and with forthright words. In the end, because of Wei Qi's loyalty and integrity, Wanyan Yong respected and treated him with courtesy!
When talking about envoys after the Northern Expedition, someone actually mentioned ordering Wei Qi to be sent as an envoy. However, at that time, Chen Kangbai and others wanted to seek peace, so they suppressed the nomination of Wei Qi and instead chose the unknown one. Shen Tang.
Although he was suppressed several times, Zhao Shen admired him very much and promoted him several times, and now he has reached the position of Minister of Rites.
After listening to Shen Tang's words, Zhang Jun couldn't help but nodded. These two people were indeed good choices.
Moreover, if such a person succeeds as Privy Councilor, there will be no constraints on Shen Tang.
"Well! After that, I will write to you directly and let him work on this matter! Although I am not in the court now, I still have some disciples and former officials. Although I dare not say that I am decisive, I am somewhat sure..."
Shen Tang nodded. With his position as Privy Councilor, he is naturally one of the top officials in the court. It is difficult to say, but it is also simple to say! However, as Zhang Jun, he is naturally qualified to say this!
After the two chatted for a while, Zhang Jun said, "You rest for a day or two, and then go to pay homage to Tang Qing! Although you two have not met, you can still be considered to have this fate!"
"This is exactly what it should be!"
Shen Tang responded.
"Then, you will reveal your identity and gather your troops!"
Shen Tang returned and went to Fengxiang Mansion again. This matter was not a secret, and as a result, there was an uproar in the court! This guy finally went to the North because he was looking for death, and now he is back?
Of course, these people can also imagine that the reason why Shen Tang returned must have something to do with Zhao Shen! Now that the Song Dynasty is facing a war with the Jin Kingdom, the Song Dynasty has no confidence at all, so Zhao Shen will naturally want to get Shen Tang back.
However, they didn't want Shen Tang to come back so easily!
Above the court, although Zhao Shen quietly took a two-day break and went to Lianli City, no one knew about this matter, so the civil and military officials did not come to trouble because of this matter!
After everyone reported some things piecemeal, the hall suddenly became quiet!
Seeing this, Wang Quan shouted in a sharp voice, "If you have the foundation, you will start early, if you don't have the foundation, you will retreat!"
Ye Yong narrowed his eyes, and then glanced at the ministers! However, he saw Ruan Liang, the Minister of War, coming out of the squad to report, "Your Majesty, the 'Anfeng Army' came to report the day before yesterday, saying that there was an army When the horse crossed the border, its commander was Shen Tang, the former pacifier of the Chengdu Prefecture, and he said he was holding His Majesty's sword. I wonder if this is true or not?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Zhao Shen!
Zhao Shen sneered in his heart, but his face was calm. He had expected this moment. If these people could let Shen Tang return, he wouldn't have to go to such trouble.
"That's right! Shen Tang was hurt when he went to Dali Kingdom before, so he resigned! But now, he heard that the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom were at war again, so he came back to serve the country! I am grateful for his loyalty, so I specially sent the prince Go to Sizhou, one of them restores Shen Tang’s previous authority, and the other orders him to go to Lizhou to join Zhang Jun and resist the Jin soldiers! What?
Is there any objection to this matter?"
"Your Majesty, this is against the rules!"
At this time, Wang Dayou, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, suddenly came out and said, "Since Chu Shen Tang has resigned from office, he will naturally be in vain. If the official is reinstated, he will need to report to the Ministry of Personnel for assessment, and then write a letter to the province, and then report to His Majesty for a decision!" Now His Majesty has made a final decision, where will the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty be placed, and where will the imperial regulations be placed?
Your Majesty, please take back the order and wait until it is verified before Shen Tang can take up his post!"
Zhao Shen's heart sank. He expected the opposition from Ye Yong and others. However, he did not expect that before Ye Yong jumped out, a Wang Dayou came out first! Although this Wang Dayou was not as good as Shi Hao, he didn't expect it. Although he had not much connection with Ye Yong and others, this was also the reason why Zhao Shen selected him as the minister of the Ministry of Personnel before, but why this time?
"Master Wang, what you said is wrong!"
At this moment, a person next to Wang Dayou spoke up. This was none other than Wei Qi, the Minister of Rites!
"Master Wang said that rules are of course the most important, but there are priorities, but they cannot be generalized! As we all know, although Master Shen is the number one scholar, he is also the choice of general! The conquest of Tubo and the pacification of the southern border are all done by Master Shen There is no need to go into details about this! Now, the Song and Jin armies are facing each other, the Jin soldiers are approaching Xiangyang City, and the newly defeated soldiers of Fengxiang Mansion have no intention of fighting! Under such circumstances, the war must naturally come first!"
"Therefore, Your Majesty made a decision at the opportunity and directly ordered Mr. Shen to go to Lizhou. Although this is not in line with the laws of the imperial court, it is in line with military affairs and people's hearts!"
"I would like to ask Mr. Wang, if His Majesty follows the law and orders Shen Tang to return to Lin'an for investigation, I don't know how long it will be delayed! If this delay causes the Jin soldiers to break through, then by then Mr. Wang will go to the battlefield to fight with Are those golden soldiers going to talk about the so-called rules?"
Having said this, he turned around and saluted Zhao Shen, "Your Majesty, your Majesty! Although what Mr. Wang said is wrong, it is true. I believe that special matters should be handled specially, and the Ministry of Personnel should work out the appointment of Mr. Shen as soon as possible. , after Master Zaizhi has verified that it is correct, Your Majesty will decide the matter as soon as possible! After all, if the name is not correct, the words will not be correct. Now, although Master Shen has His Majesty's sword, it is not as secure as the court's laws..."
Listening to Wei Qi's words, Zhao Shen couldn't help but praise him in his heart. He was worthy of being one of the famous ambassadors. These remarks not only temporarily ignored Wang Dayou's so-called rules, but even directly used his so-called rules to Shen Tang is a well-known person!
"Well, this matter..." Zhao Shen was about to speak, but Ye Yong was out of work and directly interrupted Zhao Shen!
"Your Majesty, even if you obey the authority in urgent matters, this matter is still inappropriate!"
Ye Yong spoke firmly. He knew very well how powerful Shen Tang was, so he never wanted to have another enemy like Shen Tang! Now that he had left, why would he come back again?
