The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 2449 An Uneasy Day

Yu Xingshu, who once served as the Grand Commander in Jiangzhou and later served in the Ministry of War, was transferred by Fang Yun to the Honglu Temple as a junior official.

The Honglu Temple is mainly responsible for foreign affairs, such as envoys to various countries, such as receiving foreign guests, etc., which has almost nothing to do with Yu Xingshu's military identity, and some people expressed opposition.

Fang Yun said that Jingguo has gradually become stronger, and foreign affairs need a decisive and tough official. Only scholars with military experience can adapt to the development of Jingguo.

After the officials discussed, even Sheng Boyuan, the Minister of Personnel who had always opposed Fang Yun, said that what Fang Yun said was very reasonable, which calmed down the doubts.

Jingguo also had a small episode. The Shengyuan Lidian sent a university scholar to the Jingguo Lidian, saying that it was to promote etiquette. This happened frequently, and the actions were low-key. People did not pay much attention to it and just regarded it as an ordinary move of the Lidian.

The personal report did not cause much trouble afterwards, but many people did not know that Fang Yun transferred some people one after another based on the personal reports of the officials of the Left Prime Minister's Cabinet, and transferred the capable officials of Mizhou and Xiangzhou to the Left Prime Minister's Cabinet.

Since these officials were only small officials of the eighth rank at most, and there were only five of them, even the Supervisory Council, which had been keeping an eye on Fang Yun, did not bother to care.

The censors of the Supervisory Council have always been the weapons of various factions, and they often stab the first sword of factional struggle.

Before finding a major problem, the royal family would not be stupid enough to attack indiscriminately.

What's more, there are also many clean censors in the Supervisory Council. Although Fang Yun does not have much friendship with them, more than half of the censors naturally support Fang Yun with his civil and military achievements.

The Supervisory Council is under the charge of the assistant prime minister, but in fact, the Supervisory Council, the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple under the charge of the assistant prime minister all have extremely independent systems. The reason why this famous three judicial systems are assigned to the assistant prime minister is to avoid the excessive power of the left and right prime ministers, not to really hand over the power of the three courts to the assistant prime minister.

Therefore, the real power of the assistant prime minister of Jingguo comes from the decision-making power of the cabinet, which has little to do with the three judicial departments.

After half a month of exploration, Fang Yun completely mastered the Left Prime Minister's Office with his experience in Ning'an and Xiangzhou, as well as the most important military merits and strength. However, he did not completely master the cabinet, after all, his qualifications as a Beijing official were too shallow.

The main reason why he was able to master the Left Prime Minister's Office so quickly was that Fang Yun was the first great Confucian left prime minister in the history of Jingguo. In the human race where literary status is supreme, Fang Yun has a very heavy authority in the Left Prime Minister's Office.

No matter which faction the officials in the Left Prime Minister's Office were inserted into, they would be intimidated by Fang Yun's identity as a great Confucian and virtual saint, and dare not have the slightest idea of ​​resistance, let alone secretly obstruct Fang Yun.

Half a month later in the morning, Fang Yun sat in the Longma luxury car and slowly drove towards the palace.

Fang Yun looked out the window and suddenly sighed.

Hu Li gently patted Fang Yun's shoulders and asked, "Why is Xianggong sighing?"

Xianggong is a name that used to refer to a person who holds a position of prime minister. Cao Cao was called this in the Cao Wei period, and later it was generally used to refer to officials or husbands.

Fang Yun said helplessly, "I thought that there would be a few thorns in the Zuo Xiang Pavilion, so that I could establish my authority in the Zuo Xiang Pavilion and scare off the various factions of the scoundrels. Unexpectedly, the officials in the Zuo Xiang Pavilion can only be described as "obedient", and all my methods cannot be used. After all, I am still sick."

Hu Li covered her mouth and laughed, "Don't you see what other identities you have besides the Zuo Xiang? Xu Sheng, the ancestor of poetry, the Lord of Blood Mang, the Lord of Ten Colds, the Lord of the Yangtze River, Wenxing Longjue, and the eldest brother of Fu Yue Bansheng. Not to mention those small officials, even the frontier officials working under you have to be obedient."

Fang Yun said, "If you haven't established your authority yet, you can only take it slowly."

As Fang Yun said, he took out a memorial and opened it to read it again.

Hu Li never dared to influence Fang Yun, but when she was around Fang Yun, she would always know a lot of things.

Hu Li looked at the contents of the memorial for a few times, and her face was surprised.

Fang Yun closed the memorial and looked out the window quietly.

"It is a serious matter, and I can only wrong you for a few years..."

The court meeting was as usual, the king was present, and all the officials came to see him.

After the drums and music, Fang Yun was still ranked first among the civil officials, and Li Wenying was ranked first among the military officials.

Nowadays, the left and right prime ministers and the assistant prime ministers of Jingguo are all there, but the civil minister is missing.

The civil minister has always been more symbolic, and the person who is really responsible for the position of the civil minister is the university scholar of the academy, so Jiang Hechuan's departure does not have much impact on the internal affairs of Jingguo.

With one less civil minister, the other factions will be less involved, so everyone tacitly understands and is not in a hurry to establish a new civil minister.

The officials thought that today was the same as usual, and some officials reported some things that had been agreed upon long ago according to the convention, and the king agreed to it. However, everyone was shocked to find that Fang Yun's Wuhou car actually moved forward slowly and left the civil servants' queue.

The air in Fengtian Hall suddenly stagnated.

Some officials of lower ranks were actually beating their hearts like drums and showing shock.

The officialdom of the Ten Kingdoms has its underlying rules. Generally speaking, there will be clues about what will happen in the court before the court, and officials from various departments will guess one or two in advance.

Any sudden situation will cause a shock to the court.

What's more, it was Fang Yun, the left prime minister, and the head of all officials.

Then Fang Yun slowly said: "I, your humble servant Fang Yun, have something important to report."

"What is it, my dear Fang?" Jing Jun answered in a formal manner, but his voice still trembled slightly.

Fang Yun said: "Your Majesty, I have implicated General Li Wenying for four major crimes!"

His words were like thunder, shaking the Golden Palace.

Everyone looked at Li Wenying and saw that even though he was a great scholar, his heart was calm, but his face still showed an expression of astonishment that could not be concealed.

Li Wenying was fearless, but he could not help but be shocked.

When the officials saw this scene, they immediately realized that Fang Yun and Li Wenying had not secretly colluded, and Li Wenying had just learned about this.

Considering that Jiang Hechuan was lured away from the mountain by Fang Yun and sent to the Holy Court, what does it mean now that Fang Yun is targeting Li Wenying?

Almost all officials came to the same conclusion.

Fang Yun wants to crack down on dissidents and make arbitrary decisions!

Jingguo will be in chaos!

Jingjun panicked at the time, looking blankly ahead through the curtain, and after a long while, he turned his head to look at the queen mother.

The queen mother was also in a daze.

After a dozen breaths, Jingjun slowly said: "Please speak, Lord Fang."

Jingjun's voice was weak and bitter.

Even though he was a minor and had experienced so many things, Jingjun instinctively realized that Fang Yun was going to stir up trouble.

Fang Yun said sternly: "Li Wenying's subordinate Dai Hong rode his horse in the city and injured people, but he only paid compensation. Moreover, this person was spoiled and had the bad habit of drinking and whipping officers and soldiers in the barracks. Li Wenying didn't care and didn't control his subordinates strictly. This is the first crime!"

Everyone showed an expression of incomprehension. Dai Hong was a fifth-rank general and had some bad deeds, but he was brave in battle and didn't care about trivial matters. For a general with outstanding military achievements, these were just trivial matters.

"Li Wenying's second crime was to indulge his slaves. Two years ago, the servants of the Li family had a conflict with the people and injured people. Later, they were acquitted in the name of Li Wenying, and Li Wenying's wife also knew about it."

Two years ago, Li Wenying was still training in the ancient land.

"The third crime is improper strategy. Before Li Wenying went to the ancient land for training, he should have known that the barbarians would take action against our Jing country, but he acted on his own, disregarding the national crisis, and went to the ancient land for refuge. As a result, when our Jing country faced a powerful enemy, the army was short of people and the war was difficult. If it were not for this prime minister to turn the tide, Jing country would have lost half of its territory!"

"The fourth crime is to condone evil. The villain Liu Shan has been causing trouble for many years. As a university scholar, Li Wenying failed to lead his colleagues to attack him, which led to the growth of Liu's party and almost caused Jing country to fall apart. With four crimes stacked up, I ask the king to deprive Li Wenying of his official position, leaving only the title, and exile him to Liangjie Mountain for three years to fight for his crimes and redeem his merits!"
