Yi Song

Chapter 152 What does Zhao Wuniang plus Liu Erlang equal?

Zhao Ji couldn't help but think back.

Yes, Liu Erlang has been working hard during the past three months, running around in the wind and snow. Because I had just received an important responsibility, I was afraid that I would not do well and miss my own important tasks. I always reported everything and did not dare to neglect at all.

The fifth sister just said that there are more than 200,000 disaster victims, people's hearts are floating, people are mixed, and they are all driven to work in the middle of winter. How can they be suppressed without some means?

It is indeed normal to kill someone to establish one's authority!

On second thought, losing a battle is normal.

Tong Guanchu, who had been on the battlefield with Li Xian, went to the northwest to lead troops and suffered several defeats. He just pretended not to know about it at the time.

When I arrived at Liu Erlang's place, why couldn't I be tolerant?

After all, dredging the Bianhe River and stationing in Nanjing to fight against thieves and eliminate rebels were indeed recommended by Grand Master Cai and appointed by him. Now that Erlang is a little bit off, he just screams and kills. Who will be willing to do things so carefully in the future?

After thinking about it, Zhao Ji felt that he was too harsh on Liu Erlang.

"Erlang, it's really not easy."

"Dad knows that it is not easy for him, yet he is so harsh on him and has a three-day deadline to eliminate the thieves. This is to force him to death. If you force him to death, let's see who else will serve you with such care in the future.

I see, it’s those people who can’t see anyone caring enough to do things for daddy. Once things are done, they won't be able to tease you. "

Zhao Ji's eyes flashed, and when he saw the snow on Zhao Wuniang's body, he asked heartbrokenly: "For Erlang, you waited outside the courtyard gate all night?"

"Waiting all night."

"Ah, my fifth sister, it's freezing cold today. Isn't it freezing to you?" Zhao Ji quickly waved his hand and called the waiter beside him, "Go get the hot soup, and quickly go get the cloak."

"It's not freezing, it's just chilling my heart."

"Feeling cold?"

"Yes. I came to Zefangyuan to look for my father. The gatekeeper said that my father had gone to bed and I didn't dare to disturb him. That's okay. I didn't dare to disturb my father's rest, so I waited at the door. I begged to go into the concierge's room to avoid the wind and snow. No."

The head of the courtyard house, who was hiding behind and eavesdropping, had his eyes bulging out of his head.

Grandma, you didn’t say anything either.

"I begged for some clothes to keep out the cold and wind, but I refused to give them life or death. Fortunately, the Concubine Xian of Jiuhuayuan took into account my mother's kindness and sent me cloaks and hot soup, so we didn't freeze to death. Wuwuwu .”

Zhao Wuniang wiped her tears and became more and more sad as she spoke.

"I am a child without a mother, no one feels sorry for me. I haven't married yet, and people in the palace dislike me so much. Wuwu, I will come less often from now on, so as not to annoy others. Dad, you should take more care of yourself in the future. My daughter can’t spend more time with you. Woohoo.”

Zhao Ji's heart was broken when he heard this, and he was angry and anxious.

Of course he knew that it was Wang Guifei and others who deliberately made things difficult for the fifth sister, as well as Yang Jian, who climbed up and down, and bullied the motherless fifth sister.

But how can you say these words easily?

Zhao Ji turned his head and stared at the head of the courtyard with a sinister look.

You kid, take the blame for this.

The head of the palace fell to his knees on the ground with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly.

"The palace has not been in order for a long time, and there is a slave who doesn't take the master seriously! My fifth sister was frozen to death, and you couldn't make up for it even if she was cut into pieces. Someone, kill this bitch. There are also those who were on duty here last night and the dog talents who were on duty at Gongchen Gate. Take them all and hand them over."

Zhao Ji paused for a moment and then said: "Leave it to Liang Shicheng for punishment!"

"Dad, Master Liang looked at the Imperial City Division and was so busy that he was dizzy. Why bother him with such a trivial matter? Well, it's better to leave it to Tan Zhen."

"Tan Zhen?"

"Yesterday he quietly sent a letter to Jiuhuayuan, so I didn't freeze to death."

"The imperial edict was passed, and Tan Zhen was promoted to serve as a senior official, and moved to Nei Nei to serve as deputy governor of the province. All these talented people were handed over to Tan Zhen."

"Yes!"

Seeing the top servants of the Guanyuan Hall being dragged away, Zhao Wuniang, who was in a good mood, took Zhao Ji's arm and said, "Dad, since you know Erlang's hard work, hurry up and pass on the edict to save the heroes."

"Okay, but I haven't had breakfast yet?"

"Go to Baozhuan Palace to eat. Tell people to report quickly and prepare breakfast. I will accompany dad there. You can have something hot when you get there."

"Okay, okay, okay, let's go." Zhao Ji responded dotingly.

After arriving at Baozhuan Palace and having breakfast, Cai Jing, Deng Xunwu and Bai Shizhong were also called.

"I have met Your Majesty and Emperor Kangfu."

Seeing Zhao Wuniang sitting next to the official, Cai Jing's heart couldn't help but thump.

"My lords, I have thought about it and I am still too harsh on Erlang. Young people should be given more opportunities. Erlang was born in the first year of Yuanfu and is only twenty-one years old now. What are you doing at the age of twenty-one? Grand Master, what are you doing at the age of twenty-one?" "I am still studying and taking the state tribute examination." Cai Jing replied quickly.

"Yes, Erlang is now dredging the Bianhe River for the imperial court and suppressing civil unrest in Huaibei.

The dredging has been completed and is awaiting acceptance. If there is a slight setback in the suppression, we will shout and kill. This is not good and is too harsh. How can we let good talents grow up in this way? "

Hearing the official's sudden change of tone, Deng Xunwu and Bai Shizhong immediately put aside their opinions and said yes again and again.

Cai Jing glanced at Zhao Wuniang, who was sitting next to her with lowered eyebrows and eyes, and knew something was wrong.

The official family suddenly turned 180 degrees overnight.

Done!

Cai Jing is well aware of the temperament of officials.

He has a soft ear and attaches great importance to family affection. According to the relationship between closeness and distance, what he trusts most is his children.

There are so many princes and emperors, but the ones he loves most are his third brother and fifth sister.

Next are the concubines, the most trusted among them are Empress Zheng, Concubine Wang, Concubine Qiao, Concubine Cui, and Concubine Liu Xian.

Next are the chamberlains who accompany him day and night: Liang Shicheng, Yang Jian, Tong Guan, Huang Jingchen, Li Yan, and Tan Zhen.

There are also brothers and clans who finally have their turn to go to the outer court.

Cai Jing suddenly realized that after careful calculation, he was ranked so low in the order of trust among officials.

Officials have no trust in themselves, they can only use them - they can make money and fight with the party, and there is no family affection or emotion in them.

What's the difference between this and a chamber pot?

Now Fifth Sister and Liu Erlang join forces, one is inside and the other is outside.

Cai Jing began to sweat on his back.

Moreover, they seemed to have found the key. Yesterday, I tried very hard to step on Liu Erlang, but in one night, the fifth sister easily overturned the situation.

Something is wrong!

"In this case, let's draw up an edict and recall yesterday's edict. If you lose the battle, you should reprimand those who deserve to be reprimanded. Then don't defeat the thief in three days, just defeat the thief as soon as possible.

Didn't Erlang say that he also killed hundreds of thieves and captured a member of the thieves chief? The reward still needs to be rewarded. A reward of 50,000 yuan will be given, and the official rank will be promoted by one level."

When Zhao Ji mentioned this, Deng Xunwu quickly added: "A few days ago, the officials gave me a favor and promoted Liu Erlang to Doctor Yiwei."

"Then the civil service rank will be raised one level."

Cai Jing felt even colder.

Civil servants who send salary and rank are more valuable!

"What was Liu Erlang's previous civil service rank?"

"Replying to Your Majesty, it's Doctor Fengzhi." Bai Shizhong replied.

"Promoted to be a doctor in the middle school. In the past three months, Erlang has been traveling abroad. He did not even return to Bianjing on Zhengdan or Shangyuan Festival. He spent all his time on the construction site. He is loyal to the king and does his part. This is rare in this dynasty. . No reward for meritorious service, no reward for hard work, will chill the hearts of all ambitious people in the world."

Zhao Ji was reminded by Zhao Wuniang, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Liu Guozhang had done a lot of hard work. Compared with those civil and military officials who only knew how to talk, he seemed down-to-earth, diligent and upright, and the more he felt heartbroken for his nephew.

"Give it to General Zuo Xiaowei again."

Good guy, not only has he been promoted to the most valuable civilian rank, he has also been promoted to the rank of environmental sanitation officer. This is a grace given to the clan and relatives, and is more honorable than ordinary military rank officials.

After planning so hard for so long, I finally pushed Liu Erlang into danger, with only one last push left. As a result, Zhao Wuniang whispered in the official's ear, and it was all in vain.

it is good!it is good!it is good!

Just give him an official title! No matter how many official positions, no matter how high the official rank is, they can't protect Liu Erlang. The fall of Nanjing was still a matter of guilt. "One oversight" on the battlefield could lead to death!

I want it.

"Official, official." A man ran in from the side hall, startling everyone.

The hard-winged futou on his head was tilted to one side. The red robe on his body was dotted with mud. He held up the front and ran in. His official boots were full of mud.

Standing in the middle of the hall, breathing heavily, I still haven't regained my breath for a long time.

"Gao Qiu, what are you doing?" Zhao Ji asked.

"Your Majesty, I am in Chenliu. I have received an urgent report. I am anxious and will send it directly."

"Could it be possible that you ran here from Chenliu?"

"At four o'clock, at one o'clock, ride a horse and run. Run here."

"What urgent report?"

"Nannan. Urgent report from Nanjing!"

"What? Erlang, he was defeated again?" Zhao Ji stood up and asked with an ugly face.
