Chapter 90: Staying in class and remonstrating hard in the pavilion, a great admonishment officer (please vote for me)

The next day.

Another person petitioned Zhao Zhen to grant Zhang Meiren and her family a title to help the official family have a son.

This person's identity is extremely unusual.

It was Zhao Yunrang, the king of Runan County and the envoy of Jiangning Festival.

That is, Zhao Zongshi's biological father.

Seeing that all the officials in the court were asking for memorials, he couldn't help but submit them.

Since Zhao Zongshi became the adopted son of Empress Cao, Zhao Yunrang's position has been very embarrassing.

When Zhao Zongshi was taken to the palace, everyone was fawning over him.

After Zhao Zhen had a son, he was immediately ignored by the family, and after the prince died in infancy, everyone was fawning over him.

He was extremely annoyed.

Zhao Yunrang has no ambitions.

He just wanted his son to be safe and have a smooth life.

He actually did not support his son's becoming a prince or even an emperor in the future.

Once Zhao Zongshi becomes the prince, he will be Zhao Zhen's son.

A few years later, Zhao Zongshi became emperor.

He didn't even know whether Zhao Zongshi called him daddy or Zhao Zhen as daddy when he paid homage.

This time, if he did not write a memorial to support him, some people would think that his son was greedy for the position of prince.

This is taboo.

Therefore, he had to submit a memorial.

……

Three days later.

Nearly [-]% of the officials in the court agreed to confer the title of Concubine Zhang and her family.

Some believe in popular opinion, some follow the trend, some welcome the holy will, some please Zhang Yaozuo, etc.

The only ones who raised objections were Su Liang, Ouyang Xiu, Tang Jie and He Tan.

Some officials have not yet expressed their opinions.

Maybe Bao Zheng was too busy and didn't express any opinions on this matter.

The officials in Bianjing City are very shrewd.

They chose to agree, not because public opinion controlled their minds.

The main reason why the officials acted this way was: to please the emperor.

As Zhao Zhen beheaded Yang Riyan and planted informants at the Yushitai, the holy power gradually increased.

People such as Xia Song, Chen Zhizhong, and Wang Gongchen who have done bad things will inevitably follow the Sacred Heart.

Furthermore, from a probabilistic perspective.

Zhang Mei is only 23 years old, and she is deeply favored by Zhao Zhen. It is very likely that she will give birth to a dragon son.

If you agree with this matter and Zhang Mei gives birth to a dragon seed for the official family, then all the ministers have merit, and they are not at fault for not giving birth to a dragon seed.

But if you object to this matter, once Zhang Meiren gives birth to a dragon seed, the officials will be displeased.

In the future, if this dragon ascends to the throne and someone tells this matter, the career of the opponents will be even more worrying.

Officials summed it up, so naturally most of them agreed.

Su Liang, Ouyang Xiu, Tang Jie, and He Tan were all Taiwan admonishers.

Their principle of admonishment is: People or things that are not in compliance with the imperial regulations and are harmful to the country and the country must be admonished!

Unfortunately, all their memorials were suppressed by Zhao Zhen. They wanted to meet the saint to remonstrate with them, but Zhao Zhen was unwilling to meet.

……

afternoon.

Su Liang learned that the official family had planned to make Zhang Mei a noble concubine. Her uncle Zhang Yaozuo and brother Zhang Huaji would also receive the title, and the edict would most likely be issued tomorrow.

soon.

Su Liang, Ouyang Xiu, Tang Jie, and He Tan gathered in the admonition courtyard. "Zhang Yaozuo must not be allowed to be promoted any further. His talents and knowledge are very mediocre. Whether he is appointed as the Third Secretary or the Secretary of the Central Committee, it will be harmful to the court and not beneficial at all!" Tang Jie said angrily.

He Tan sighed helplessly.

"At the moment, in the court, I am afraid that only four of us hold objections. How can we argue with all the courtiers!"

Tang Jie murmured: "The key now is how we prove that Zhang Meiren's status has nothing to do with the status of her family and whether the official family can give birth to a dragon."

"It doesn't matter at all. It's just that these officials took the people's jokes as fact and thought it was profitable!" He Tan said.

Su Liang thought about it.

"I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter. Public opinion was formed too quickly. Maybe it was under the instruction of someone."

"It's very possible. If he was given the order, it must be Zhang Yaozuo. This matter is most beneficial to him!" Ouyang Xiudao.

"But it's too late to investigate at this time. In any case, this matter is against the regulations. As Taiwan remonstrators, we must continue to remonstrate!" Tang Jie on the side said with an upright face.

At this time, Ouyang Xiu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"At this moment, the officials and the ministers are meeting in the Chui Gong Hall. How about a person who stays in the pavilion to admonish us? Let the officials and the ministers give us an explanation that is in line with the regulations!"

The eyes of the other three people suddenly lit up.

As a Taiwan admonisher, you must do it when it’s time to risk it!
The so-called staying in class means that when the king and his ministers are meeting or discussing matters, the admonishing officials will block them in the palace and ask them to debate on the spot.

The so-called "Fuge" means that when the official meets with him and is rejected, and all other avenues of communication are blocked, the Hou stands outside the palace where the official is and asks for advice, but the official refuses to leave without seeing him.

These are two very extreme ways of admonishing, and are rarely used by Taiwanese admonishment officials.

Because this means that the Taiwanese admonishers believed that both the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats had made mistakes.

But now this situation applies to both methods.

Immediately, the four of them tidied up their official uniforms, went to the toilet, and then went straight to Chui Gong Hall.

……

Outside the hanging arch hall.

Zhao Zhenzheng was happily discussing the etiquette of conferring beauty on Zhang Meiren with all his ministers.

The chamberlain came to report, including Ouyang Xiu, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, who was admonishing the academy, He Tan, who was admonished by Zuo Si, Tang Jie, the censor in the palace, and Su Liang, the supervisory censor, all gathered at the entrance of the Chui Gong Hall, requesting to discuss Zhang Meiren's affairs with the officials and other ministers.

Hearing this, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but frown.

"These four stubborn people don't know how to be flexible when doing things. Let them wait!"

After half an hour.

Zhao Zhen finished discussing the matter with Du Yan, Wu Yu, Chen Zhizhong, Xia Song, and Wang Yaochen, and ordered the five of them to leave.

Zhao Zhen wants to have a private chat with Su Liang and the other four.

If all the ministers were here, Zhao Zhen would still be embarrassed.

However, as soon as Du Yan and the others reached the door, they were stopped by Ouyang Xiu and the others.

"All the ministers are in agreement with Zhang Meiren's matter. Xiu hopes that all the ministers can stop in the palace and give an explanation!"

On the side, Tang Jie, He Tan and Su Liang stretched out their arms to stop the ministers.

"Uncle Ouyang Yong, do you want to stay on duty and go to the pavilion to remonstrate? But without the guidance of the director, you are guilty of the following!" Xia Song opened his mouth and labeled Su Liang and the others.

Ouyang Xiu said coldly: "As a Hanlin scholar, am I not qualified to lead the admonishment academy?"

Immediately, Xia Song took the lead in pushing forward.

Su Liang turned to one side and straightened his chest. Xia Song seemed to have hit a hill and almost fell to the ground.

In terms of physique, these old men are no match for Su Liang and others.

Especially Tang Jie, who was so thin and exposed that anyone who touched him would be hurt.

Seeing that a physical conflict was about to occur, Du Yan quickly said: "How can you use violence outside Chui Gong Hall? It's very indecent, very indecent. Let's all go back and explain this matter clearly."

Immediately, the princes and Su Liang returned to the palace.

Du Yan, Wu Yu, Chen Zhizhong, Xia Song, and Wang Yaochen stood on the left side, and Su Liang, Ouyang Xiu, Tang Jie, and He Tan stood on the right side.

Zhao Zhen looked helpless.

The admonishing officials blocked him and all the ministers in the palace. If they don't understand clearly today, I'm afraid no one can leave.

 Please vote for me, thank you very much!
