Invincible son

Chapter 145 144 [Excellent Rituals]

Daliang Miyagi.

Dongfu Government Affairs Hall.

In the first duty room on the left, a decent-looking man is skillfully making tea.

Although it was only late October, the room was already burning with earth dragons, and it was as warm as spring.Compared with the former Wei Dynasty, Daliang Tianjia treated the important ministers of the DPRK well. At least the ruling military planes of the two governments did not have to squeeze into the cramped duty room and endure the torment of cold in winter and hot in summer.

On both sides of the long table, two rulers sat facing each other.

The one on the right is probably in his early 40s, with bright eyebrows and a long beard, and the court clothes on his body are clearly creased as if they were brand new.He looks gentle and elegant, with a beautiful temperament in poetry and books. Many young nobles will be deceived by this appearance when they meet for the first time, thinking that he is the kind of pedantic official who only drops book bags.

His name is Luo Ting, he was born in a poor family, he was the first in the high school examination at the age of 19, and his official career was prosperous all the way, and now he is in power in the Eastern Mansion.

There is a saying in the officialdom in Kyoto, "Wen Luoting, Wu Guliang, don't provoke them."

The one who understands this sentence the most should be Wang Pingzhang.Before Luo Ting entered the East Mansion, when he was serving as Yushi Zhongcheng at Yushitai, he impeached him face-to-face for "unpredictable intentions", and bluntly stated "three abuses and six crimes" in the army, which caused shock in the court.Afterwards, Wang Pingzhang had to defend himself. Although Emperor Kaiping did not reprimand him, but instead rewarded him with a large amount of gold, silver and jewels as a show of favor, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Luo Ting had won.

The reason is simple--in the sixth year of Renxuan, Luo Ting was promoted to the Dongfu Government Affairs Hall, where he took up political affairs and participated in politics.

From then on, Luo Ting began to display his political talents. Although sometimes he was a little impatient and his style was tough, he could fill the treasury day by day, and the government gradually became clearer. Even his political opponents could not say a word of belittling him. Word.

Looking at the imperial decree in his hand, Luo Ting frowned, and after holding back for a moment, he still rebuked slightly angrily: "This is nonsense!"

As he spoke, he pressed the imperial decree on the table.

The Sheren standing next to him looked at his nose, his nose, and his heart, as if he was used to such a scene.

The old man opposite Luo Ting took a sip of tea, and said to the housekeeper with a gentle expression, "Go down."

"Yes."

Sheren left the guard room lightly and closed the door.

There are only two rulers left in the duty room. They hold the fate of the empire in their hands. Numerous government orders were born and formed from here, and then sent to various places in the Thirteen States of Daliang.This small value house is the power center of the government affairs of the imperial court. Apart from the two rulers, there are only three political affairs participants who can enter the room for discussion, and the others are not even eligible to enter the six ministers.

As for those nobles, the West Mansion has plenty of places for them to drink and scold their mothers, but it is strictly forbidden to enter the East Mansion government office.

Luo Ting looked at the old man on the opposite side, and said solemnly: "Jun Xinggong, forgive me for speaking bluntly, the East Mansion cannot let this imperial edict be sent out."

The old man's name is Mo Haoli, he can write well, he is sixty-four this year, and he is from Jianglu, Yuzhou.

He is a veteran of the four dynasties. He has gone through Taizong, Zhongzong, Renzong and this dynasty. Now he is an official in the left of Dongfu.Except for Emperor Kaiping, he is the only one among the princes of the Manchu Dynasty who can suppress Luo Ting.In fact, without Mo Haoli sitting in the center, Luo Ting's style of acting would have caused a lot of trouble soon.

The old man coughed several times. Winter was coming, and he obviously felt that his body was not as good as in previous years.

Sometimes he envied Wang Pingzhang's copper pea. Although he was only two years younger than himself, he looked more like a middle-aged man with a strong body.When he was young, he also tried to practice martial arts, but after all, he didn't have the talent in that area, so he had to give up in the end.Hearing the anger in Luo Ting's tone at this moment, he smiled and asked, "Why?"

Luo Ting said bluntly: "How precious is the title of the court, how can it be given at will? If the son of the Pei family didn't have a good ancestor, what qualifications does he have for this viscount? A 14-year-old boy can have some real skills. I don't believe he is a general. Down to earth."

Mo Haoli spoke slowly, as if he had thought about every sentence: "Although there is no detailed description in the imperial decree, you should know that Pei Yue has contributed a lot to the suppression of the Hengduan bandits in the Beijing camp this time. If your majesty does not give a heavy reward, Then why did the Beijing camp make such a big move?"

Luo Ting sneered and said: "Your Majesty is in a hurry to suppress the thieves, but he is only worried that he will not be able to explain to the ancestors of the Tian family at the end of the year, so he insists on going his own way. Wang Pingzhang pretends to be the left military machine, has no responsibility and loyalty, and can't speak out to persuade him. It's a joke. The so-called mountain bandits are nothing more than Wang Pingzhang's sins, so he should be allowed to perform his crimes and meritorious deeds. How can there be military merits?"

Mo Haoli laughed dumbfounded when he heard the words, shook his head and said: "It is said that you, Luo Jiyu, are a firecracker that can't be fired at all. I don't think so. If you didn't know that His Majesty would not send someone to watch this value room, how dare you say these words Said outside?"

Luo Ting was at a loss for words, thought for a while and then said confidently: "In front of Mr. Jun Xing, lower officials don't lie."

Mo Haoli did not continue to tease, and sighed softly: "There is no need to mention what happened back then, even the old man feels guilty. As for the award this time, let's not interfere too much. After all, if the bandits are not eliminated, it is the capital that will suffer." People on the outskirts. Wang Pingzhang and the Jingying are two different concepts, and the contributions of the soldiers of the Jingying should not be obliterated because of him, because it will chill the hearts of these soldiers to serve the country."

"Ji Yu, the old man is fortunate to have had your help these years, but I have to say something long-winded. If you want to sit in our position, it is not difficult to sit for a long time, and if you want to do well, you have to keep the people of Daliang in your heart."

Luo Ting's face was serious, and he said seriously: "The junior is taught."

Mo Haoli waved his hand: "Actually, you know the truth, and you have always done a good job, but sometimes when you get angry, you will inevitably be a little careless. Regarding the case of Pei Rongtong in the Dingguo Mansion submitted by Mo Moyun, and the Fengcheng Marquis Mansion The case of Li Zijun, don't care about it in the East Mansion. I know you are close to those censors, so you go to say hello and talk to them in a few days."

Although Luo Ting respects the old man in front of him very much, he will not blindly follow him, which is one of the reasons why he can stand out from the courtiers.

Hearing the old man's instructions, after thinking for a while, he nodded slightly to agree with the other party's point of view: "There is really no need to get involved in these bullshit matters among nobles, and let them bite them to their heart's content. However, the son of the Pei family was knighted I hope Mr. Jun Xing will think about it for a while."

Mo Haoli didn't take Li Zijun's case seriously in his heart, it was just a fight between dudes, and he was not qualified to discuss it in this value room, so he just mentioned it in passing.But Pei Rong's weight is different, at least he is the current Patriarch of Dingguo Mansion, no matter how useless he is, his identity is there.

He knew the emperor very well, and when he knew that the other party temporarily suppressed Pei Rong's case and wanted to award Viscount Pei Yue, he already understood Emperor Kaiping's thoughts.Since Pei Yue was made a Viscount, and Pei Cheng succeeded the third-class Uncle Dingyuan before, it meant that Pei Rong's fate had already been decided, and Emperor Kaiping would not spare him lightly.

The glory of a double nobility is enough to offset the negative impact of convicting the ruler of the country.

So if you want to stop this viscount from bestowing it, you are undoubtedly going against the emperor.

Looking at Luo Ting with piercing eyes, the old man knew exactly what this junior was thinking.

A 14-year-old viscount is not likely to disturb Chao Gang, but behind him is the main military faction like Gu Liang, and he has a close relationship with Mo Moyun. For civil servants who naturally dislike the noble group, no one would like Seeing the emergence of such a military upstart.

Even if he is still very young, he can't talk about stirring up the situation.

After thinking for a long time, Mo Haoli said calmly: "If you have meritorious service, you must be rewarded, but it depends on how you reward, and you can't violate the court's laws."

He paused, then slowly said: "If the young man wants to get this title in a legitimate way, the current merits alone are not enough, he has to do more for the court, at least this matter must be completed. "

Luo Ting listened to what the old man said behind him, and said sincerely: "I understand, I will do as you said."
