When Jia Ke heard that the emperor appointed him as the foreman, he was overjoyed. He originally thought that because of his insufficient ability to handle political affairs, he could not compete with Pan Yong for this position. Unexpectedly, the emperor unexpectedly appointed him as the foreman.
Jia Ke quickly knelt down and told the emperor: "Your Majesty, your Majesty appoints me as the foreman. I am actually very willing, but I cannot accept this position."
"Oh, why? Since you are willing, why don't you accept it?" The emperor became interested after hearing Jia Ke's words.
"Although I am very willing to accept this position, I am still very unfamiliar with handling government affairs. I am worried that if I make any mistakes and miss the emperor's important affairs, even if I die, it will not be enough to atone for my sin." Jia Ke Yizheng.
I said this sternly and did not shy away from speaking out about my shortcomings. Sometimes this would make others believe in me more.
The emperor was silent for a long time after listening to Jia Ke's words. Then he stood up and walked to Jia Ke, helped him up with his own hands, and said to him: "With your words, you are qualified as a military aircraft foreman. As for the lack of political affairs,
It doesn’t matter. If you let others read these notes, you can summarize them in the end. If you are not satisfied after reading them, just send them back and ask them to rewrite them.”
After hearing the emperor's words, Jia Ke felt a little moved in his heart. These were not what the emperor said to his ministers. They were clearly the love and care of the elders for the younger ones. Jia Ke's eyes turned red. He held back his tears and said to the emperor: "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
I will live up to His Majesty’s expectations.”
The emperor patted Jia Ke on the shoulder and said, "That's right. This is a bit like fighting a general on the battlefield. You showed your cowardice just now."
After the emperor comforted Jia Ke, he sat down on the throne again, and then asked them: "I just heard you say that some information is going to be sent to me for me to make the decision. What is going on? Tell me carefully."
At this time, Jia Ke began to exercise the power of the foreman. He winked at Pan Yong next to him and asked him to reply. After all, he knew this matter better than himself.
Pan Yong had just recovered from his depression. When he saw the look in Jia Ke's eyes, he had to go forward and report back to the emperor: "Long live Qi, it's the students who jointly signed a letter asking the emperor to pardon the two former bachelors."
"Oh, there is something like this. Bring the book to me." The emperor didn't seem angry.
Pan Yong quickly took out six or seven memorials from another desk, took them over and gently placed them in front of the emperor.
The emperor just glanced at it, and Dai Quan, who was standing next to him, immediately went over, picked up the top fold and brought it to the emperor's eyes.
The emperor then raised his hand to take the memorial. He looked at it carefully and found nothing wrong after reading a few pages. So he put it aside. Dai Quan was very discerning and immediately handed the next letter to the emperor.
The emperor read three or four memorials in a row and found nothing strange. Although these memorials were all pleas to the two bachelors, their tone was very tactful and there was nothing extreme. So the emperor was puzzled.
Hold Jia Ke and Pan Yong and let them give their own explanations.
At this time, Pan Yong spoke, "These memorials to Your Majesty may seem to be nothing. They are just pleas for the two bachelors. But with so many students coming together to present the memorials, it would be impossible if there were no connections among them."
The emperor's face became serious after listening to Pan Yong's words. What Pan Yong said was very reasonable. If there was no one to connect them, it would be impossible for so many students to be so united and play together to plead for the two bachelors.
"Furthermore, among these petitions, there are only joint memorials from the students, and no official has submitted a memorial. This is extremely unreasonable. Someone must have asked the imperial students to take the lead in order to test the emperor's attitude, and then they will take the next step.
Action." Pan Yong reported the results of his and Jia Ke's discussion to the emperor in detail, and even added some fuel and jealousy. This was because he wanted the two bachelors to die. The two of them were ostracizing each other when they were in the study.
Pan Yong, now it's finally time for revenge.
The emperor's face was clouded at this time. It seemed that with Pan Yong's prompting, he also understood the mystery. At the same time, he was very happy that he had won two bachelors.
The power and prestige of these two great scholars had reached such an extent that if the prince hadn't rebelled this time and the two of them had neglected Xingzang, in a few years I would have had to discuss it with them even if I issued an imperial edict.
What the emperor didn't expect was that these two people, already in the prison, could command their disciples to stir up such a huge wave. It seemed that their influence had spread throughout the government and the public.
The emperor originally felt a little pity for them, and thought of sending them back home after a while, leaving them in the cold for a while, and then returning them to the court to serve him.
Now the emperor dares to let them out. If they get out, they may cause huge waves. Maybe when they return home, they will destroy themselves on the grounds of protecting the crown prince. There has been a betrayal, so
There will be no psychological burden if you betray again for the second time.
In fact, it is completely unnecessary for the emperor to think this way. The emperor now controls the military power of the whole world. How can the governors in various places dare to disobey the emperor's orders?
The two bachelors who don't have a single soldier in their hands may make some noises when they go back, but they may not have the courage to rebel. After all, no one is a fool. No one would think that with two mouths and a piece of paper,
One pen can take over the world.
The emperor didn't care about this, he just felt that he was threatened. In this case, no matter how big or small the threat was, he had to get rid of it.
So the emperor directly said to Dai Quan who was standing next to him: "Password, Li Lu, Yan Mu is a traitor and has evil intentions. He is still harboring ulterior motives in prison. Considering that they have made some minor achievements over the years, let them commit suicide in prison without knowing the canonical punishment."
"The emperor seemed still angry after saying this, and then issued an edict: "All his family property was confiscated, the men were sent to three thousand miles away, and all the women were sent to the Jiaofang as slaves."
This is the first time for Jia Ke to come into contact with this kind of thing, and now he is a little frightened. He did not expect that the struggle in the court would be so cruel. Those who lose will not only die themselves, but also their family members will not have a good end. Which men have to pay it forward?
Even if you go 3,000 miles away, as long as you are healthy, you still have a glimmer of life. But after these women are sent to the temple, they may never have the face to live again. They are all rich ladies. How can they be humiliated like this?
You still have the dignity to live in this world.
Jia Ke couldn't help but think of the scene in Dream of Red Mansions when Jia's mansion was raided, and the wealthy ladies from official families were sold into ecclesiastical houses. He didn't know why there was a feeling of anger in his chest. He was afraid that the Rongguo Mansion and him would end up like this in the future.
end.
Jia Ke's heart was churning at this time. Suddenly he thought of Cao Cao, Wang Mang, and even Sima Yi. These people may not have been loyal ministers of the court at the beginning. Cao Cao only wanted to be the general who conquered the west, Wang Mang was also humble and virtuous, and even Sima Yi
They are also the pillars of the Wei State, and they all turned into traitors in the end. This is because the situation forced them to do what they had to do.
Jia Ke made up his mind that no matter who wanted his life, he would fight him to the death. He would never surrender and let the other party slaughter him. Even if he was the emperor, he would not let the other party succeed.
After the emperor conveyed the order to deal with the two bachelors, he said to Jia Ke and Pan Yong: "The deposed prince still has many rebels. The cases of some people must be concluded as soon as possible and cannot be delayed for too long. Delay will lead to changes. Who knows these people?"
Will they be connected in series?"
Jia Ke and Pan Yong knelt down and said yes together. Pan Yong also promised the emperor that this time the case of the deposed prince's rebellion would be dealt with quickly and strictly.
The emperor nodded, and then said: "There must be no tolerance this time. These people are the culprits who deceived the prince and caused the Tian family to slaughter their flesh and blood."
The emperor still has one thought in his mind, that is, the prince's nature is good, but these ministers always think about Conglong, so they deceive the prince. Otherwise, their father and son are still a loving father and a filial son. Therefore, the emperor has no regard for these people who are dependent on the prince.
The ministers have no favorable impressions, only full of disgust.
After listening to the emperor's words, Pan Yong understood that the emperor was going to launch a large-scale prison. Although some of them were Pan Yong's old friends, the emperor was angry now and no one could save them.
Jia Ke thought of something else. Currently, both the Liaodong Jiedushi and the Xuanfu Town Jiedushi are vacant. These two places are important defensive areas in the capital. If a general is not appointed quickly, there may be mistakes in both places.
.If the Tatars invade again and let the neighboring Shu Kingdom know about it, then the Celestial Empire will really become a laughing stock.
"Your Majesty, I am still a little worried, so I would like to report it to Your Majesty." After Pan Yong finished speaking, Jia Ke also acted like an emperor.
"Jia Aiqing, if you need anything, just report it." The emperor's attitude towards Jia Ke was still very gentle.
"Your Majesty, the governors of Xuanfu Town and Liaodong Town are currently vacant. Both of these places are key points leading to the capital. If we don't appoint chief officers as soon as possible, I'm afraid the Tatars will take advantage of the vacancy." Jia
Ke truthfully reported her concerns to the emperor.
After listening to Jia Ke's report, the emperor also felt that it was indeed dangerous if there were no generals in these two towns, so he casually asked Jia Ke: "Who do you think, Aiqing, can be the general in these two towns?"
"Long live Qi Zhen, I have been serving as an official in Xuanfu Town. I am not familiar with the generals in the world, so I dare not speak nonsense." Although Jia Ke longs for military power, at this time, how dare he suggest anything casually. Besides, he wants military power.
He has a better way, there is no need to support his own power so blatantly.
"Jia Ke, if I ask you to say it, just say it without any scruples. Since you only know about Xuanfu Town, then recommend two people from Xuanfu Town. You are just recommending them. Whether I use them or not is up to me.
." The emperor still insisted on letting Jia Ke recommend him.
Jia Ke thought for a while and then recommended two people to the emperor: "Your Majesty, if you really want me to recommend, I can only recommend Huang Baifeng and Feng Mo. Huang Baifeng is a little older, but
He is mature and prudent, and if he is to guard Xuanfu Town, he will be absolutely foolproof."
"Oh, what about the other person?"
"Feng Mo is slightly younger, but he is very aggressive but never reckless. Letting him serve as the governor of Liaodong is the best choice for the newly developed land of Liaodong. It can not only ensure the stability of Liaodong, but also rely on his enterprising spirit.
Spirit, suppress the aliens in Liaodong." Jia Ke has now risked his life. Since the emperor wanted to ask, he told them all. After all, among the generals in Xuanfu Town he knew, these two were the only ones who could stand alone, and
These two people can also be regarded as his confidants.
