Great Tang Broom Star
Chapter 800: One branch and one leaf always care about love
"Datang broom star ()"!
Xu Jingzong has been quite busy since he entered the imperial court, but Jia Pingan even gave him a job to sort out his years of experience in official career...
"What is he trying to do?"
Xu Jingzong muttered, sorting out the thoughts in his mind, and then jotted down the main points.
Alright, let's get down to business.
"Xu Xiang!"
An official came in, "Lu Xiang invites you to go over there."
Xu Jingzong frowned: "Why didn't he come?"
They are all prime ministers, why should you be superior to others?
The official said with a smile: "It is said that Lu Xiang's leg is injured and he is not good at walking."
"That's all!"
Xu Jingzong then went to the household department.
Lu Chengqing participated in the interrogation of Zhang Sun Wuji and his gang as the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. After he was done, he entered the court and became the prime minister.
"The old man is sorry."
Lu Chengqing got up while supporting the case, and said with a wry smile: "Riding the horse yesterday, the horse hadn't stopped yet. I was in a hurry to get off the horse. I'm old...and I sprained my foot."
"I'm getting older, so I have to be more careful. Why did Xiang Lu invite this old man?"
Lu Chengqing sat down and coughed dryly, "There were some natural disasters in Jinzhou last year. His Majesty ordered that 50% of Jinzhou's taxes last year be exempted, but it was a bit late and they were all collected. Now it should be made up this year...but this year The money is a bit tight, and the old man wants to wait until next year to exempt 50% of the Golden State tax as a compensation... But last time when we got together to discuss the matter, you rejected it..."
When Xu Jingzong heard this, he became angry, "It was shameless to collect taxes from Jinzhou last year... Jinzhou Governor Wang Quanzhong is shameless. The people were already suffering from natural disasters, but they were going to be raided by this cruel official. The people of Jinzhou How innocent? How innocent are the people of Jinzhou!"
Outside, Li Zhigang came out of the ceremony department.
"It says Xu Qing is in the household department, go and have a look."
As soon as Li Zhi and others entered the household department, the officials hurriedly saluted.
Li Zhi smiled,
"They're all doing things. Being busy makes me happy, so let them keep quiet."
He went all the way outside Lu Chengqing's duty room, and heard Xu Jingzong's roar.
"...Your Majesty is so wise. Jinzhou suffered a natural disaster last year, and immediately exempted 50% of Jinzhou's taxes, but Wang Quanzhong is shameless. Let me ask you, how can the Ministry of Households have the face to accept Jinzhou's taxes? Why not Impeach Wang Quanzhong?"
"Xu Xiang is extreme."
When Lu Chengqing opened his mouth, he was indifferent to the sons of the gentry, "If you accept it, you will accept it, and I haven't heard how many people died, so Wang Quanzhong has made a contribution..."
Boom!
There was the sound of something being tapped.
Xu Jingzong raised his voice again, furious, "How many times do you have to die to be moved? Does it mean that the people of Jinzhou must starve to death before they know how to show mercy? This old man told you that this year, 50% of the tax in Jinzhou must be exempted... No, According to this old man, at least 60% and 10% are interest!"
This treacherous minister is making trouble... Lu Chengqing said indifferently: "This matter is not up to you. The old man invited you here, just to tell you that this matter will be reported tomorrow. If you want to object... feel free."
The people are the old man's parents... Xu Jingzong thought of the suffering of the people in Jinzhou, and wished he could slap Lu Chengqing to death, he said solemnly: "You go ahead, tomorrow the old man is willing to be bumped to death in the palace, and I will never let a traitor like you Success!"
Outside, the officials who came in to welcome Li Zhi and others had some sweat on their foreheads.
Look at the emperor, his expression is calm, showing no signs of happiness or anger. But... better to remind.
He coughed lightly.
Li Zhi glanced at him with a sneer in his eyes, then turned and left.
On the second day, when the court was discussing matters, Lu Chengqing raised this matter.
"...This year, I heard that there is some movement in Liaodong. The household department should raise money and food, and plan ahead... Once the army moves, there will be money and food. If there is more, the army will be more confident. Besides, last year's taxes I have accepted them all, I think there is no problem."
He glanced at Xu Jingzong with a calm look in his eyes.
Old man, do you think it's that simple?
The DPRK and China have been planning to attack the three kingdoms of Liaodong, and money and food are the first priority in such a war. The old man has done nothing wrong with his actions, but you, Xu Jingzong, are just too impulsive and not successful enough!
Xu Jingzong stood up, "Your Majesty, I don't know how to attack Liaodong, but the people in Jinzhou are crying for food, but this is the real thing... Every time I think that the people of Jinzhou suffered from natural disasters and had to pay taxes last year, I feel like a knife." twist……"
When he raised his head, everyone couldn't help being stunned... This treacherous minister Xu actually burst into tears.
"Natural disasters lead to a decrease in harvest, but the governor of Jinzhou, Wang Quanzhong, actually forced the local government to levy taxes for his own political achievements... How guilty are the people! Your Majesty! Those people are hungry, and those children are screaming..."
He wiped away his tears and said: "What I said in the court is simple, but the life of the people... When I went to Huazhou, I went to Wuyang Gong's house. The house was completely empty and there was almost no food for overnight. So, what about Jinzhou, which suffered a natural disaster?"
He looked at Lu Chengqing, and his anger erupted like a volcano, "Those people just want to survive the natural disaster, but Jinzhou imposes taxes by force. I can think of the ruthlessness of those officials, and the despair of the people crying for mercy... …
What can they expect? In the court, there are cruel officials like you in charge of the household department, who treat the people as nothing. When their despair and wailing are heard in the court, they have long been unheard...So you thought about delaying for another year with peace of mind, but can the people slow down? ? Can? "
Xu Jingzong cupped his hands, "I implore Your Majesty to exempt Jinzhou from 50%... no, 60% of taxes this year."
Lu Chengqing smiled slightly.
He is a descendant of the Lu family of Fan Yang, whose father was an official of the former Sui Dynasty. After Li Yuan raised his army, his father surrendered without hesitation as soon as the army arrived. The descendants of the Lu family in Fanyang have been demoted. Although they are only minor officials, they have become Li Yuan's campaign tool... Lu Chengqing's father was named Duke of Fanyang.
When Emperor Taizong succeeded to the throne, he also cared a lot for Lu Chengqing. The life of this gentry son can be said to be smooth.
But after Li Zhi succeeded to the throne, the Guanlong faction was in charge of the government. The Guanlong faction and the Shandong gentry such as Fan Yang's Lu family were incompatible, and immediately Lu Chengqing was kicked out of Chang'an City...
After Li Zhi was determined to attack the Guanlong coterie, the first thing he thought of was to find helpers. The opponents of the Shandong gentry, the Guanlong coterie, came into his sight. Immediately afterwards, Lu Chengqing was promoted step by step... In the end, he also participated in the interrogation of the Guanlong coterie, and became Li Zhi's tool to wipe out his political opponents.
Lu Chengqing is naturally not a tool person, so he just smiled slightly.
The old man is dedicated to the country, what's the use of you talking about all this?
As for the common people, from the end of the Han Dynasty to the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, countless careerists appeared on the stage, and fighting and plundering were the main themes. The bones of the dead were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, and the people turned into piles of bones. Those ambitious people stepped on these bones and stepped onto the throne... Who cares about those bones?
If you can't see through this, what kind of prime minister are you, Xu Jingzong?
After years of inheritance, the Fanyang Lu family is well aware of these changes, and the same is true for the elites of the gentry... In their eyes, the common people are tool people: tool people who provide money and food, become tool people of sergeants, and become tools of craftsmen and businessmen people……
A tool is a tool!
When the prime ministers dispute, only the emperor can make a move. The two looked at the emperor, Lu Chengqing was quite confident in his heart, even Wang Zhongliang could feel Xu Jingzong's tragic aura.
A subtle blow from the Shandong gentry in the court!
Lu Chengqing glanced at Li Ji.
Li Ji looked calm and did not respond.
This old man is an old man, don't let your calculations fall on this old man.
Li Zhi moved slightly and sat up straighter, all the officials were respectful.
"The king is the boat, the people are the water, and the water can carry the boat, and it can also overturn the boat. When I was young, the first emperor taught me this way. At that time, I was thinking that the king is high and holds supreme authority. Why would I be afraid of those weak people?" People like sheep...the late emperor told me many examples."
There was some memory in Li Zhi's eyes, "The former Qin Dynasty ruled the Central Plains, the First Emperor was a great man, and he thought he would last forever, but the Qin law was violent and harsh. Someone climbed up and shouted, and the people gathered in the scene, and then the former Qin collapsed. In the former Han Dynasty, The officials are corrupt, the powerful and powerful are greedy, the people are in dire straits, and finally the Yellow Turban raises the flag, and the former Han Dynasty is destroyed... What did I see?"
The teachings of the late emperor came to mind one by one, Li Zhi thought to himself: Aye, you have far-sighted eyes after all.
"Whether it is the former Qin Dynasty or the former Han Dynasty, people are regarded as nothing. It seems that there is no serious problem for a while, but people's grievances will silt up, and there will be more and more..."
Li Zhi said solemnly: "I seem to have seen the scene of chaos in the world. If there is such a scene, the disregard for the people at this moment is the beginning! I will not be a king of subjugation, and I also hope that my descendants will not be kings of subjugation."
Lu Chengqing's heart trembled.
"Xu Qing has been with me for many years. At first, some people called him the treacherous minister Xu, and I made a joke of it." Li Zhi smiled, obviously thinking about what happened back then.
Xu Jingzong burst into tears, "Your Majesty!"
Li Zhi smiled and said: "But you don't think it's disobedient, you do things seriously, and put the overall situation first. I remember when you were in Huazhou, the officials and people in Huazhou said that you love the people like your son. I asked you, but you said that the people are your parents... …If all the officials of the Tang Dynasty have this kind of mind, who else in the Tang Dynasty can shake it?"
Xu Jingzong said with tears: "I regard the common people as my parents. Whenever the common people have something wrong, I will be very anxious and wish I could replace it with my own body."
"It's a good one who is burning with anxiety, and a good one to replace it with his body!"
Li Zhi nodded frequently, his appreciation was beyond words.
Everyone's hearts moved slightly, knowing that Xu Jingzong had scored.
This treacherous minister Xu... If you want to say that his attitude is impossible. Xu Jingzong acted straightforwardly and said what he had to say, otherwise he would not have been demoted for empress Wende's funeral.
This person actually regards the common people as his parents... It's ridiculous!
"There is a vacancy in Zhongshu Ling, I have been thinking about who can take up this position..."
Lu Chengqing raised his head, and there was something else in his eyes.
Xu Jingzong is the Prime Minister as Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he is the Minister of the Ministry of Households... But in the final analysis, there are only three high-ranking officials who are serious prime ministers.
Zhongshuling is the real prime minister!
Li Yifu's eyes became hotter. Zhongshuling was originally his position, but after he was demoted to Puzhou last time, he never took over this position. Is the emperor going to make a decision today?
The other prime ministers were also quite moved.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the hall changed suddenly.
Li Zhi knows all about these things.
who?
His eyes turned slowly, and finally settled on Xu Jingzong.
"Xu Qing can be the order of Zhongshu."
Lu Chengqing's body shook, and the rest of the family's children calmed him down immediately, but he felt extremely tormented in his heart.
Xu Jingzong actually went up!
Li Yifu opened his mouth and stared blankly at Xu Jingzong... This treacherous minister Xu, this idiot, he actually made a Zhongshu Ling!
Li Ji also took a look at Xu Jingzong quite unexpectedly. In his opinion, the emperor would use his dog Li Yifu as the Zhongshuling to control a part of the center.
"His Majesty!"
Xu Jingzong's hot tears finally rolled down, choked up, his body trembled, and he knelt down slowly, "Chen...Chen..."
He never thought that he would one day be able to join the center, never thought that the emperor would give him such an important position as Zhongshuling.
Li Zhi nodded slightly, "You have improved a lot over the years, I... am very pleased."
The original Xu Jingzong was more like a stunned young man, he did things directly and didn't know how to turn, which made him quite a headache.
Now Xu Jingzong has changed, this change makes him happy, he is glad that he has an extra capable helper.
After Xu Jingzong got up, the first sentence...
"Your Majesty, I impeach Wang Quanzhong, the governor of Jinzhou."
Li Zhi nodded, "Wang Quanzhong regards the common people as worthless, I can't tolerate it, so I'm dismissed."
Xu Jingzong couldn't help laughing.
It's still Xu Jingzong!
Li Zhi shook his head slightly.
Separated later.
Xu Jingzong was in a great mood, no, it was great.
"Lu Xiang, let's go down to the Yamen to drink together? After all, the old man has made a Zhongshu order, so we should get close to each other from now on."
Lu Chengqing's face was slightly green, and after a cold snort, he walked away.
Seeing that he refused to accept the offer, Xu Jingzong went to Li Yifu.
"Li Xiang, let's go drink together?"
Li Yifu was the previous Zhongshu Ling, and at this moment he was being squeezed by him like this, and he was furious and glared at him.
Xu Jingzong chuckled, "Why is Prime Minister Li glaring at the old man, the old man has good intentions..."
Bitch!
Li Yifu left in a huff.
Xu Jingzong stood there, raised his head and laughed.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Li Ji's cheeks trembled slightly, thinking that this kind of villain's appearance...it turned out to be Datang's Zhongshuling, how embarrassing!
Standing outside the hall, Li Zhi also saw this scene, covered his forehead and said, "I regret it a little. But... Only Xu Jingzong like this can make me believe in it."
Xu Jingzong was promoted.
When Jia Pingan got the news, he immediately came to Zhongshu to congratulate him.
"Mr. Xu, congratulations."
Xu Jingzong said with a stern face: "Being a Zhongshuling, the responsibility is even heavier. The old man is walking on thin ice, trembling... What is there to congratulate?"
Huh!
This is not Lao Xu's temperament!
Shouldn't he want the villain to be proud?
Xu Jingzong suddenly smiled, and said triumphantly: "Zhongshu Ling! This is the pinnacle of civil servants, and the old man can do it, hahahaha!"
This is Xu Jingzong.
"Xiao Jia, go down to the Yamen to drink?"
It seemed that Lao Xu was eager to find someone to show off, but Jia Pingan was not fooled, "I have something to do at home today, and I will go back later."
Xu Jingzong regretted a bit, then saw that his hands were empty, and said with a cold face, "Congratulations, congratulations, where are the gifts?"
"Mr. Xu, are you asking for bribes just after taking office?"
Jia Pingan looked angry.
Xu Jingzong said proudly: "Of course I don't want someone else's old man, but yours... can't be given!"
Jia Pingan thought for a while, "So, I will give Mr. Xu a poem."
Xu Jingzong sighed, "Benefits are not costly, Xiao Jia, you have learned from Yang Deli's stinginess."
He was a little disappointed.
"Xu Xiang."
The bigwigs from the Zhongshu Province came to see the newly promoted Zhongshu Ling, which can be regarded as a pier.
Xu Jingzong nodded. After these people came in, they saw Jia Pingan pacing.
Is this for poetry?
Jia Ping'an is known as Jia Babu, because Cao Zhi's seven-step poem was first, so he took an extra step humbly.
"one two three four five six……"
Jia Pingan stopped.
Everyone was stunned.
Isn't it Jia Babu?
How did he become Jia Liubu?
Jia Pingan stood with his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, and recited: "Ya Zhai is lying down and listening to Xiao Xiaozhu..."
This sentence is quite boring, and Jia Ping'an's performance is out of order.
Everyone laughed.
Jia Pingan glanced at Xu Jingzong, "It is suspected to be the voice of the people suffering."
After his transformation, Lao Xu has already been completely reborn. Back then in Huazhou, Jia Pingan, as Lao Xu's dog-headed military adviser, gave him an idea to substitute the common people as his parents. In an instant, Lao Xu exploded and embarked on the road of counterattack.
This poem could not be more appropriate for Xu Jingzong.
"Wonderful!"
An official praised: "Ya Zhai listened to Xiao Xiaozhu, which is suspected to be the suffering of the people. Xu Xiang regards the people as his parents, and cares about the well-being of the people all the time, which is really appropriate."
Xu Jingzong's face was full of red, "Xiao Jia's poem is tailor-made for this old man."
What about two sentences?
Everyone looked at Jia Pingan.
"Some of my little county officials in Caozhou are always concerned with love."
These two sentences are even better.
This is said in the tone of Xu Jingzong: Although the old man does not show his official position, the big and small things of the people make the old man worry...
This... good poem!
Xu Jingzong patted the table, "I got the paper."
After the paper was delivered, Xu Jingzong wrote this poem with a brush, and raised his head, saying: "It's time for people to paper it, and I will hang it in the old man's room later, reminding the old man to be the master of the people at all times."
Jia Pingan wrote poetry again after a long time.
"It is suspected to be the voice of suffering among the people..."
Li Ji sighed: "Xiao Jia is really talented, this poem can be said to be tailor-made for Xu Jingzong."
Immediately he thought of his grandson.
That stupid man, if he has such talent, so what if the old man takes the risk of letting him join the army?
Why!
"Aon!"
Li Jingye came in and said happily: "Brother wrote a poem, everyone agreed!"
Li Ji didn't speak.
"A Weng, why are your eyes wrong?" Li Jingye wondered: "Could it be that there is something wrong with your eyes? Yes, the ancients said that your eyesight is dim, A Weng, you are like this now, I will find a good doctor later, A Weng ... help!"
When this poem was passed on to Wu Mei, Zhou Shanxiang praised: "It really is a good poem, unique."
Wu Mei was also quite happy, "People who don't have people in their hearts can't compose such poems. Ping An can do this... Go to Your Majesty."
Wu Mei went to the emperor.
"Mei Niang."
Li Zhi beckoned, wanting to discuss political affairs with her.
Wu Mei smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Ping'an just wrote a poem, and the Yazhai listened to Xiao Xiaozhu. It is suspected to be the voice of the people's suffering. These little county officials in Caozhou are always concerned about love."
Huh!
Li Zhi was startled, and after savoring it again and again, he nodded and said, "This poem is well written."
Wu Mei took advantage of the situation and said: "The concubine thinks that the poem of Ping'an can set an example for the officials. If it is when writing the text, I will attach this poem at the end to motivate the officials..."
Li Zhi coughed uncomfortably, "This..."
"His Majesty!"
"Also."
...
Ask for a ticket.
Good night!
