Chapter 1072 Sima Guang's Unwillingness
To be honest, Sima Guang was a little arrogant. In the last round of the Prime Minister's dispute, he was facing the old thief Wen Yanbo and his aggressor, so of course he was at a disadvantage.
But this time, he had accumulated more than four years and had sufficient capital. In addition, those old guys were defeated by Wang Ning'an. Among all the court officials, he had the highest position and the most experienced. He had been in the Political Affairs Hall for nearly twenty years and had generous favors and had a large number of people. Looking around, he was no match for him.
The only thing worth fearing is teacher Wang Ning'an.
Therefore, Sima Guang tried Wang Ning'an several times.
He could see that the teacher might not like him, but Wang Ning'an could not take action at the moment.
The important ministers of the two dynasties and the emperor's army taught the prince, as a vassal king, had been prime minister, and had worked in the border areas... At the level of Wang Ning'an, he was already in no way. If he was not satisfied and interfered with the government affairs at will, he would send out a very bad signal.
The King of Yan still wants to take a step forward!
To put it bluntly, we must usurp the throne and become emperor.
Even without Wang Ning'an speaking, the people below will take the initiative to help carry the sedan chair when they look at their preferences... In the end, even Wang Ning'an can't control it.
This was true for Wang Mang, Cao Cao, and even Zhao Kuangyin, who were forced to go to the path of powerful ministers and even usurped the throne and seized power.
Sima just wanted to be the emperor because Wang Ning'an did not dare to interfere with the government affairs casually, so he pushed his people. According to his calculations, Su Song's foundation was too poor and it was not worth worrying. As for Lu Huiqing, Zhang Dun and others, they were still a little young and could not fight him at all. The emperor was on an expedition, and the entire court was all in his mind!
But Lu Huiqing's sudden outbreak surprised him.
Sima Guang was muffled, feeling irritable, and almost crazy.
Others' eyes lit up, especially Zeng Bu, and immediately agreed, "I think what Lu Xianggong said is that Lu Hui was a censor, and he has always been an official in the capital, and has no local experience... Liaodong is so complicated, with Khitans, Jurchens, and barbarians, and construction, development resources, and building the granary of the Song Dynasty. Thousands of threads are all gathered together. If you don't choose a capable person, you will let down the world that countless soldiers have conquered! Don't forget that Liaodong was personally led by His Majesty and the King of Yan, and every inch of land is blood of soldiers!"
"That's right!" Wang Shao said immediately: "There are still many garrisons in Liaodong, and they often go out to fight. If they succeed to Pingzhang, they cannot coordinate and cooperate with the garrison, our Ministry of War will not agree!"
These three people were like three heavy cannons, blocking the front, making Sima Guang very embarrassed.
The boss is bullied, so the younger brother will naturally charge.
Feng Jing immediately said: "I don't think so. Liaodong went from chaos to rule, and it was the time to silence the martial arts and culture, and to calm the place. Lord Lu was kind and honest as an official, and was extraordinary in morality, and was the right candidate!"
As he said that, he chuckled, "As for Cai Jing, what is this person, let's not talk about it, but he has an older brother from the same clan, the treacherous Cai Que who colluded with Wang Rong! How can such a family tradition be convinced!"
He grabbed Cai Jing's braid and wanted to connect him with Cai Que, but he was not careful. Someone had widened his eyes, that was Han Zongwu!
In short, among the six ministers, Han Zongwu is the most embarrassing.
The Han family was involved in major cases several times, not only were they exiled, but even several elders were sentenced to death. It was impossible to say that they were not depressed. Han Zongwu became taciturn and just focused on his ministry affairs, regardless of other matters.
But Feng Jing's words were so hurtful. Cai Que was just a distant cousin, so he had to implicate Cai Jing. So, as a child of the Han family, should he be cut into pieces?
Thinking of this, Han Zongwu also spoke, "I don't know whether Cai Jing is honest. However, I have received many cases of suing Lu Hui for speculating on land and conducting stock trading illegally. Originally, the Ministry of Justice's investigation should not be made public, but it is necessary to promote such people to take on the heavy burden of Pingzhang in Liaodong Province. The Ministry of Justice believes that it is inappropriate!"
After he finished speaking, he closed his mouth and remained silent.
But these few words are no less than thunder!
Sima Guang's face suddenly turned red, and the people under his command were also very embarrassed.
Everyone knows that Han Zongwu, Lu Huiqing and others are not close, and there is no need for him to lie. If what he said is true, promoting an unclean person, even if he is with Wang Ning'an, he will not be able to do so!
Zhang Dun finally smiled, and he couldn't help but say, "My true uncle, how do you think about this case?"
Sima Guang was very unhappy, but he could only say: "The Ministry of Justice should investigate immediately and let Dali Temple, the Censorate, and the Censorate, and all the staff conduct thorough investigations. If Lu Hui really commits bribery, he should be severely punished. If it is indeed wronged, his innocence must be restored... As for the case, he is indeed not suitable to take over the Pingzhang incident in Liaodong!"
When these words were said, Sima Guang's old face turned red, just like he was slapped a few times.
Soon the Political Affairs Hall meeting ended, Sima Guang was the first to leave the venue. Feng Jing, who realized that he had made a big mistake, rushed over. The rest of the people might have laughed secretly in their hearts, or simply put their smiles on their faces.
Sima Jun has always made every decision, but this time, he is afraid he will fall apart!
In addition to the dramatic attacks at the meeting, what is even more surprising is the attitude of the New Policy Society.
Before this, many people believed that the New Deal Society was academic-oriented, mainly to study some issues, provide solutions, and provide reference for the court.
But this time, Lu Huiqing used the research report of the New Policy Society as a basis to overturn Lu Hui's nomination, which made people realize that the New Policy Society is not that simple!
This is a big killer left by Wang Ning'an. As long as it is used well, it will be enough to lead the court and make decisions on both sides.
It was because Lu Huiqing realized the value of the New Policy Society that he fought a beautiful battle.
On the side of all officials, Sima Guang and they were evenly matched, and the Political Consultative Conference did not have an advantage. The only advantage was the New Policy Society!
Lu Huiqing, Zhang Dun, Zeng Bu, and Su Che, these four people beat Sima Guang and killed the master with random punches and abused Sima Guang without any temper.
What's more, there are many people in charge of investigation and research under the New Politics Society, most of whom are from Wang Ning'an's disciples... The head of this group of people is Da Su!
They are very pure, not like officials, with a lot of fun.
One is one, two is two, and there is no ambiguity.
It is precisely because their research is relatively objective and fair that it has great reference value.
Lu Huiqing gradually realized that strengthening the New Policy Society was the key to his fight against Sima Guang!
"Brother Zihou, the court's employment of people depends entirely on the recommendation of the minister. To put it bluntly, it is to be nepotist, and the party will inevitably attack the differences and fight against each other... and the selected people may not be competent. If the new policy is asked to learn to do research first, define a scope, and then screen, and finally determine it, wouldn't this be more fair and reasonable?"
Zhang Dun thought for a while and said with a smile: "Although the words are reasonable, they will steal the power of the Political Affairs Hall in this way, and some people may not agree!"
Lu Huiqing smiled, "What can he do if he doesn't agree? Do you still remember the original intention of Master's establishment of the New Policy Society?"
"Well, Master hopes to continue the reform and prevent the death of the people and the political situation!"
"That's right! If the New Policy Society can only provide opinions, how can we avoid the destruction of the people? If the New Policy Society does not give the New Policy Society power, how can we maintain the results of the reform?"
"This..." Zhang Dun pondered: "Brother Ji Fu, according to your opinion, is it a plan that the master has already seen long ago, so he set up?"
Lu Huiqing was also a little hesitant.
If it is true, then Wang Ning'an is too amazing. If it is a coincidence, where does such a big coincidence come from in the world?
The problem at the moment is that they cannot ask Wang Ning'an for advice casually, and the master will not say that everything depends on their understanding. If they understand thoroughly, they can reach the sky in one step. If they are wrong, what is waiting for them may be ruined.
"Brother Zihou!" Lu Huiqing seemed particularly serious, "I came from an ordinary family and could not compare to the Zhang family... Looking at the master's governance, I always stand on the side of most people. The reason why I am today in the Song Dynasty is the result of my master's persistence. As a disciple of the master, we cannot betray his master's opinions. What does Brother Zihou think?"
Zhang Dun looked at him contemptuously, "Don't talk about Zhang's affairs. Even if you betray your master, I will not betray you! I will not sit on the side of the financial power... Since you have been in a high position and have power, don't think about being greedy for money! I, Zhang Zihou, can't do anything!"
"That's good!"
Lu Huiqing stretched out his hand, "You and I will fight side by side!"
...
"Dad, I really didn't expect that Lu Huiqing would win!" Xiao Tu stood behind Wang Ning'an, watching his father correcting his homework for Zhao Xu, and looking at the little guy's font like a ghost-drawing talisman, he grinned.
The Zhao family's artistic genius is not bad. Although Zhao Shu is slow, his writing is also very beautiful. Zhao Xu is not bad at his father and his mother is a talented woman. Logically speaking, he should at least inherit some advantages, right?
Negative negative gets positive, positive gets negative, excessive positive gets negative, too much is just like not enough... I can't figure it out!
He was thinking about it all, and Wang Ning'an finally put down his pen and rubbed his temples.
"Tell me, where will you go next to the bureau?"
Xiao Tiao paused and said, "Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun should rely on the New Politics Society to compete for power with Sima Guang. Sima Guang, as a secondary minister, has a strong foundation. His advantage lies in the officialdom, especially senior officials from Jinshi, who will most likely stand on his side. There is also Neo-Confucianism. They rely on the political meeting to constantly influence public opinion and compete for the right to speak. If the child is expected to be good, the next court will be the three-legged battle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly walked in quickly.
"Prince, the political meeting just now blocked Cai Jing's appointment!"
Wang Ning'an was not surprised too much, but Xiao Tong noticed that his father's hand trembled... In fact, his father still values emotions. He doesn't want his master and apprentice to turn against each other, but some people just don't realize it!
