I served as an admonisher in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 78: Don’t compete with ordinary people, only live longer than ordinary people.

In front of Xuande Gate.

Tang Jie and Su Liang walked from the outermost perimeter to the city gate, but neither saw a single official.

When the two of them saw that there were no more Imperial City soldiers and medical officers around them, they immediately understood that these soldiers had not lasted even one night.

Su Liang and Tang Jie were not happy at all, but very angry.

These people can already be regarded as outstanding young people in the Song Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, he was born with a soft head!

Although the Song Dynasty always lost when facing Xixia and Liao, it never suffered a loss.

If you can't beat him, speaking harshly is also a kind of counterattack, which at least shows your attitude.

But now, the bones of these people are soft, how can we expect them to say tough words!

The admonishing officials of the Song Dynasty.

At the beginning of his admonishment, he was prepared to die.

Most of them are strong-willed and upright.

Therefore, Su Liang and Tang Jie were very annoyed when they discovered this kind of softness.

If there is a huge war crisis in the Song Dynasty, these traitors will inevitably be the first traitors to surrender.

at this time.

Su Liang and Tang Jie suddenly heard shouts coming from outside.

"My dear sons of the Song Dynasty, you have worked hard by sitting quietly all night. The officials are kind and will never let you go hungry!"

"My dear children, my old lady has brought you food. Only after you have eaten and drank enough will you have the strength to sit still!"

"You young people are too reckless. If something goes wrong with your health, the officials will definitely feel sorry for you."

……

When Su Liang and Tang Jie heard it, they knew that someone had made up the lyrics for these old women.

Some words coming out of these people's mouths are very awkward.

Tang Jie frowned and said, "This must be a little trick that Xia Song came up with!"

Su Liang nodded.

"Since Prime Minister Xia has bought breakfast, it would be a loss of etiquette for us not to eat it."

The two of them were wearing official uniforms and begging for food from the old women, but the latter naturally did not dare not to give them.

After a while.

The mist cleared and the sky became brighter.

On the stone floor in the center in front of Xuande Gate, only Su Liang and Tang Jie were squatting on the ground eating steamed buns.

Lean slightly.

The ministers from the two governments and three departments came to Xuande Gate one after another.

When they saw this scene in front of them, everyone's faces turned green.

Even Xia Song didn't expect that these people would be so spineless and couldn't stand it all day and night.

But at this moment, what is even more embarrassing is——

The group of old women were holding bamboo baskets filled with food, looking confused, mumbling to themselves under the Xuandemen gate tower.

Xia Song immediately waved, and someone drove these old women away.

Du Yan glared and said: "If my officials after the Song Dynasty were this group of people, there would be chaos!"

After all, he flung his sleeves and left.

The first thing Chen Zhizhong thought of was that the officials would be furious when they found out about this, and he had to go to Chui Gong Hall immediately to find relief.

At this time, Xia Song walked next to Su Liang and Tang Jie.

Tang Jie couldn't help but said: "Xia Gong, thank you for the breakfast!"

Xia Song snorted coldly and rode into Xuandemen.

……

In the vertical arch hall.

After Zhao Zhen heard the news, he was naturally very angry.

However, after some enlightenment from Chen Zhizhong, he decided not to make the matter a bigger deal, saying that if any of these meditative practices were successful, they would all be sent to remote villages to serve as officials.

that's it.

The Xuandemen sit-in came to an abrupt end with heavy thunder and little rain.Zhao Zhen also knew that Xia Song was making trouble, but did not punish him.

On the third day of the second lunar month, Ouyang Xiu, who knew Gongju, entered the Gongyuan, and all the candidates started reading the article one after another.

Bianjing City is bustling with traffic and hustle and bustle.

This kind of prosperity buries all the mess, injustice, poverty, helplessness, etc.

……

Another day.

Zhang Fangping, the envoy of the Third Division, reported to Zhao Zhen that he wanted to resign from the post of the Envoy of the Third Division.

Zhang Fangping was still civil, and his performance in the Third Division could only be described as mediocre.

He can be said to have made the first contribution in this reform of the imperial examination, so Zhao Zhen naturally could not let him go.

Immediately.

Zhao Zhen swapped the official positions of Zhang Fangping and Wang Yaochen.

Zhang Fangping was appointed as a Hanlin bachelor, and Wang Yaochen, a Hanlin bachelor, was appointed as the third envoy.

Wang Yaochen's ability to take charge of the three divisions is actually about the same as Zhang Fangping's.

But the best thing is to be sure and never make mistakes.

At the moment, Zhao Zhen likes this kind of down-to-earth and steady official.

Wang Yaochen also readily accepted it.

at this time.

Xia Song, Wang Gongchen, and Chen Zhizhong suddenly jointly recommended Zhang Yaozuo, Zhang Meiren's uncle, as the judge and deputy envoy of the Third Division of Household Affairs.

They all believed that Wang Yaochen's ability was not yet able to support the Third Division and that someone needed help.

The most suitable candidate is Zhang Yaozuo.

At this moment, Zhang Yaozuo was on Jinghu South Road, knowing Chenzhou.

If the three people recommended her like this, it must be that Zhang Meiren is acting like a monster in the harem again.

No one knows that Zhang Yaozuo is a mediocre person!
Last time, Bao Zheng gave Zhang Yaozuo a one-day remonstrance and a group discussion with officials from Taiwan to drive Zhang Yaozuo out of the capital. Unexpectedly, the latter would come back so soon.

There was a quarrel in Chui Gong Hall.

Du Yan and Wu Yu both disagreed with Zhang Yaozuo's return to the capital, but Xia Song, Wang Gongchen and Chen Zhizhong strongly recommended him.

He Tan, Tang Jie, and Su Liang also opposed Zhang Yaozuo's appointment as the judge and deputy envoy of the Third Division of Household Affairs.

"In terms of official reputation, performance evaluation, and moral conduct, Zhang Yaozuo is qualified to hold this position. As for his qualifications, Su Jingming was promoted to the supervisory censor in just over a year. Compared with Zhang Yaozuo, his qualifications are completely sufficient!"

"Official family affairs are state affairs. Do relatives have to stay outside? I think it is very unfair to say this to avoid suspicion!"

……

Xia Song was on full fire.

Every sentence was for the sake of the officials and the country, and with the support of Chen Zhizhong and Wang Gongchen, they had the upper hand.

Zhao Zhen is obviously leaning towards Xia Song.

The final decision was made to promote Zhang Yaozuo to the position of judge and deputy envoy of the Third Division of Household Affairs.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Su Liang said no more.

When Bao Xiren comes back from the Liao Kingdom and learns about this matter, he will definitely report it. At that time, Su Liang can use his strength again.

Outside the hanging arch hall.

The ministers walked slowly in the corridor.

Xia Song walked slowly to Su Liang's side and said, "Jingming, court matters require a balance of yin and yang. Too much anger will lead to serious losses. Remember what I said, young people should speak less!"

These words seemed to have a hint of threat.

Su Liang looked at Xia Song's appearance of being a teacher, and couldn't help but cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Xia Shu, for reminding me. I'll take this as my official's responsibility."

Tang Jie on the side felt that Su Liang was being bullied, and suddenly said to Su Liang: "Jing Ming, there is a saying in my hometown, you have to remember, don't compete with other people, only live longer with them!"

puff!

Hearing this, He Tan couldn't help laughing, and then quickly covered his mouth.

This counterattack was perfect. When Xia Song was buried, Su Liang could say whatever he wanted. There was no need to argue with him now.

Suddenly, Su Liang puffed up his chest and said with a smile, "Yes, I'm still young!"

Xia Song's face turned livid and he immediately strode forward.
