By the way, after Shi Wenbin left, Zhao Jiu, who had done such a ridiculous thing, had no intention of stopping the imperial meeting. On the contrary, he had been lying in the imperial tent all day and had lost his mind and was now thinking. Get ready to get down to business.
In fact, when the sun was setting in the west, following the Zhao official's personal order, several chamberlains moved out several chairs and benches, set up seats in the curtain in front of the imperial tent, and invited all the central officials to come, The ministers took their seats.
Even Zhao Jiu, who was already wearing a red robe with a round collar, went back to the tent in person and put on a hard-winged futou that made Lu Xianggong think about it day and night. He came out and sat in a chair with his back to the imperial tent. Of course, at this point, based on the political literacy and political sensitivity of a Song Dynasty official, Lu Xianggong no longer had time to care about whether he was a monk or not.
And sure enough, after Zhao Guanjia sat down, a long list of official names made the atmosphere more solemn:
"The Prime Minister of the East Prefecture (Lü Haowen), the Prime Minister of the West Prefecture (Wang Boyan), the Prime Minister of Xiantai (Zhang Jun), the Dutong of the Imperial Camp (Wang Yuan), the Imperial Guards of the Province (Lan Gui), and several Zhongshushe The most important thing is that there is me, the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Lu Xianggong? "
"I'm here." Lu Haowen, who was sitting first on the left hand side, stood up immediately.
"Mr. Lu, I was an ordinary prince half a year ago, and I fell into a well a little half a year ago..." At this point, Zhao Jiu was in a daze. He didn't expect that it had been almost half a year. "Anyway, no matter what For some reason, I am still a little confused about the official system of the Song Dynasty and its name. But no matter how confused I am, I probably know that now that we people gather together, it still looks like a serious center, right?"
"What the officials said is true." Lu Hao asked if he dared to show any slightness, and immediately responded seriously. "The Song Dynasty inherited the Tang Dynasty system. Although there were many discussions about restructuring, the basics of governance have not changed. It is the emperor who takes the center and gives orders. , the Prime Minister of the Government Hall is in charge of discussing the government in front of the king. Today, although there are vacancies and scattered places everywhere, there are serious and important officials accompanying the emperor in the two palaces of the East and West, and in all important places in the imperial palace. Therefore, no matter in front of the imperial tent at the moment, No matter what, the main center is located, so it can naturally give orders..."
At this point, Lu Haowen became more serious, but he couldn't help but pause for a moment before continuing: "But the officials, Mr. Li Xianggong (Li Gang), and Xu Dacan (Xu Jingheng) are not here after all. If there is a serious decree, Why don't you wait a moment? Even if you can't wait for Mr. Li, Xu Dacan and Privy Zhang (Zhang Cui) are in Huaidong and Huainan. You can call them quickly!"
As soon as this statement came out, the surrounding officials either sneered or felt helpless.
Among them, there were only others, except for the former Shouzhou magistrate who had just skipped the transfer and made an exception to this qualification to enter the Hanlin Academy. Now he is full of ambitions, and the current Hanlin Academy Lin Jingmo is almost contemptuous to the point of disdain.
This scholar Xiao Lin, who has only experienced some operations of the official family, sees it very clearly... What the official family obviously wants is that there are not so many powerful Xianggong in the center, and what they want is a useless leader of civil servants like you, Lu Xianggong. What you want is to be able to do things according to his wishes. Don’t you think this is ridiculous?
And as the only successful Xianggong of the Dongfu at this time, the Xianggong of the Xifu has committed a major incident again. When he should have taken power, he ended up in such a situation. Don't you, Lu Haowen, feel it is shameful?
In fact, thinking of the government officials' insistence on going their own way these days, all the civil servants here today should feel ashamed of themselves!
However, when Academician Xiao Lin thought of this, he was suddenly startled, because he suddenly realized that since he was also here, and he had not stopped the officials from sending ducks across the river before and spitting today, does that mean that he was also quite shameful? It seems like
I didn’t even get the job of writing documents just now! I am a serious Yutang bachelor!
"That's too late."
Just when Academician Xiao Lin was in a complicated mood, Zhao Jiu over there listened carefully and expressionlessly, but directly rejected this suggestion in one sentence, and then continued to talk. "What I mean is true for others, but today
Everyone in front of me, you have always been by my side, I am afraid you have already understood..."
The civil and military leaders present were silent and showed no reaction.
"My original intention is to stop the Jin people here and boost people's morale, and then go to Nanyang or Yangzhou to stabilize, issue orders, rebuild the general trend, and redefine the country!"
Zhao Jiu couldn't help but raise his voice when he saw this. "However, in the past few days on Bagong Mountain, I have seen people like Liu Guangshi fearing the enemy as much as a tiger. They also try to figure out my thoughts without authorization. They are also shameless and fearful of death when they frame me.
flow; there is also Bagong Mountain, and the morale of the troops in Xiacaicheng is turbulent. There are actually many sergeants who think that I, the official and the central government, are just a person who can only run away; and today, this Jin Wushu bully came to the door, it seems that
Treating me as my weak and bullied brother... is it intolerable?"
Lu Haowen and others couldn't help but twitch their eyelids when they heard the last two sentences, but others, like Lu Xianggong, couldn't escape at any cost, so they could only bite the bullet and ask again: "What do the officials think?
"
"Immediately issue an edict and inform the world!" Zhao Jiu, who was sitting in the Grand Master's chair, remained expressionless and motionless. "We don't have to wait to go to Nanyang or Yangzhou, and we don't have to wait for Li Xianggong, Xu Dacan and the others, they are here.
On the mountain, tell the world my thoughts!"
"May I ask what the official's intentions are?" In the silence, Lu Haowen continued to ask.
"First, it is clear that the Song and Jin Dynasties are enemies and a matter of war! Since the war has begun, we should call on the diligent kings from all over the world to resist the war! It is said that people are old and young, regardless of whether they are north or south. Anyone who considers himself a Song Dynasty will be treated like a Jin person.
At this time, everyone should occupy the territory and fight!"
This was actually something that was expected. Today, the official family is so formal, it can only be this kind of thing. However, Lu Haowen, the Prime Minister of Dongfu, clearly expected it in his heart, but he couldn't help but remained silent for a moment, with a slight hesitation.
He turned his head and glanced at his theoretical political opponent, the only remaining banner of the peace faction in the court, Wang Boyan, the prime minister who had basically become a vegetative state in the court.
It seems that he is expecting this husband to come out and take responsibility with him!
What's interesting is that after Wang Xianggong greeted Lu Haowen's silence, he took advantage of the situation and stood up without hesitation, and then raised his voice: "I second the proposal!"
Of course seconded!
Academician Xiao Lin, who was watching all this, almost shouted in his heart. The emperor's intention had been revealed a few months ago when he recalled Xianggong Li. Now that he has appeared on the front line of the battlefield, his determination to resist the war has reached its peak!
And although Li Xianggong, the only serious prime minister who can check and balance the emperor, is not here, he is a more famous militant faction than the emperor. Why should there be any hesitation in this matter?
If you are afraid that the emperor will cause trouble again, you shouldn't be afraid now, right? And as a high-ranking minister, no matter what your position is, how can you be afraid of trouble now?!
Lu Hao asked, look at Wang Boyan!
However, just when Academician Xiao Lin was sighing, Zhang Jun, the censor over there, Wang Yuan, the commander of the imperial camp, and even several Zhongshu Sheren decided to come forward under the leadership of Hu Yin to second the proposal.
! And Academician Xiao Lin was slightly startled when he found that besides himself, the only two people near the official house, Yang Yizhong and Lan Gui, who were not supposed to talk, did not speak out! Even when he raised his head next time, he simply greeted him.
The officials looked questioning...so Lin Jingmo quickly jumped out and was the last one to second the proposal.
