Chapter 784: Combined vertical and horizontal ten
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, heavy snow.
The weather today is not good. At dusk, it started to rain heavily outside the heavy snow. The heavy snow accompanied the heavy rain and landed on the earth with an unusually cold atmosphere. A carriage slowly rode on the official road to the palace.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted in a corner, revealing Li Xun's somewhat thin face.
Looking at the wind and snow outside and the howling wind, Li Xun couldn't help but feel a little dazed. He had been in this world for fifteen years. As time passed, he had completely integrated into it. Li Xun couldn't help but think that when he first came to this world, although he was confused and fear, there was also a little excitement and excitement. In a new world and a new beginning, he might be able to choose the direction of life and progress again. However, in the face of extreme poverty, Li Xun's original emotions, whether it was confusion and fear, or excitement and excitement, gradually disappeared in the long-term torture and suffering of life, and only one wish and spiritual sustenance, that is, he could eat a full meal and live, rather than being starved to death.
Can I have a meal every day, if I am hungry today, will I continue tomorrow, can I grow up alive, and when I grow up, I have the strength and strength, I can get what I eat. All of this has occupied all Li Xun's energy for a long time.
So much so that after recognizing his aunt Li Yi, Li Xun suddenly realized that his happy life had finally begun, but whether it was poverty or wealth, when a life lasted for a certain period of time, a person would eventually become numb and do nothing.
At this time, Fan Zhongyun entered Li Xun's life. He told Li Xun a lot. Combined with the specific environment and current situation at that time, Li Xun's somewhat numb mind slowly started to stir up trouble.
When my thoughts came here, a snowflake was blown by the wind, passing through a corner of the curtain of the car, and pounced on Li Xun's face. The cold feeling suddenly interrupted Li Xun's trance.
Li Xun put down the curtain of the car and sighed slightly in the dark car. After five years of Chenggong, the battle in Jiangnan was about to go. At that time, I was ready to go and was extremely excited. I thought to be a good person, a man who is worthy of the world, despising the power and nobles, and putting loyalty first. What rights, status, and official wealth are all bullshit. When doing things, you only need to have a clear conscience. There are so many friends who can be entrusted with life and death, and this life is definitely worth it.
To this day, how many of the innocence and straightforwardness I had at the beginning, are there now?
Six days ago, Mao Anfu returned to Fengjing alone. As soon as he entered the city, he was immediately arrested and taken to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. He was too close to Zhao He and was regarded as Zhao He's man. Now Zhao He was disgraced and his family was killed. Mao Anfu was naturally implicated and attacked. Zhao Xun was not polite to Mao Anfu and ordered the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple to interrogate and make judgments as soon as possible. Adhering to Zhao Xun's will, Mao Anfu had only one final judgment, that is death.
Just yesterday, on New Year's Eve, at dusk, everyone was reuniting with their relatives at home and waiting for the New Year together. Mao Anfu's wife Liu cried to Li Xun and begged Li Xun to help and save Mao Anfu's life.
Li Xun persuaded him kindly and swears to agree to Liu's family that he will definitely help. Afterwards, Zhao Xun summoned Li Xun to the palace to discuss matters. Before Li Xun entered the palace, he had already thought of asking for mercy for Mao Anfu. However, after arriving at the palace, Li Xun found that almost all the ministers present were discussing one issue, that is, how should officials involved in Zhao He and some people with higher official positions and status be dealt with? Representatives of Qian Mingdu, Qin Anming and others, he should make a statement and severely punish these people, be ruling and quick, and completely eliminate all influence and threats of Zhao He.
During this period, Li Xun wanted to stand up and speak several times, but in the end hesitated and hesitant by the atmosphere on the scene. He became a little hesitant and hesitant until Li Zhong came forward to speak, hoping that things would not be too fast and not too involved, but was rejected by Zhao Xun, and was criticized by many people. Li Zhong finally stopped talking, and until the end, Li Xun did not say a word.
What makes me afraid of myself, and what changes myself? I don’t say a word about my friend’s life and death.
Is it power or status?
"Boss, the palace has arrived."
Jiang Daxiong's voice came.
Li Xun lifted the curtain of the car, and the cold wind and snow rushed towards him. He took the straw raincoat and hat handed over by Jiang Daxiong. After putting it on, Li Xun got off the carriage and said to Jiang Daxiong: "Today is probably the same as yesterday. It will end very late. You go back first and come and pick me up in two hours."
Jiang Daxiong said, "It's okay, I'll just wait here."
Li Xun patted Jiang Daxiong on the shoulder: "Be careful to avoid the cold and don't catch a cold."
Jiang Daxiong grinned: "I understand, boss."
Li Xun didn't say much, tightened his straw raincoat and stepped into the palace.
When Zhao Zhi was there, every year on New Year's Eve or the first day of the New Year, banquets would be held in the palace to entertain relatives of the imperial royal family. Since he met Li Yi, except for the two years he was in Longyou, Li Xun and his son were invited to attend the royal banquet every year, but this year, it was gone. Perhaps Zhao Zhi had just passed away and the new emperor Zhao Xun was not in the mood.
In fact, early this morning, Zhao Xun summoned many ministers to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters. There were only a few days left before the New Year's meeting. On the fifth day of the New Year, Zhao Xun will hold a grand dynasty. This is his first dynasty. As the emperor, Zhao Xun will set his year name and formally named his biological mother Li Yi as the empress dowager, and the position of prime minister who supplemented the vacancies of the political affairs hall. There are also many people who led and participated in the coup, including the wing king Zhao He and the king of Hengshan Zhao Ke, and many others who led and participated in the coup. Although many of them have died, the final determination of their crimes still needs to be announced in the court. There are many things that will begin and end on the day of the fifth day of the dynasty.
Three days ago, Zhao Xun had officially issued an edict to appoint Li Xun as the Right Minister of War and the Chief Minister of Political Affairs. This appointment has become a settlement. However, on the fifth day of the dynasty, Zhao Xun would also appoint Li Xun as the Minister of the Secretariat to be a civil servant and enter the Political Affairs Hall to become one of the nine prime ministers. This most important appointment requires that in front of all officials, after the third reading, there was no objection of many officials to finally succeed in the promotion.
There was nothing Li Xun had to do today, but after a coup, whether it was the imperial guard system or local military officials like Mao Anfu, many people were implicated and hit, and fell one after another. As a result, many official positions were vacant. Although Zhao Xun had made arrangements and decisions, no matter what, Li Xun was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War and the main official in charge of the daily government affairs of the Ministry of War. For some appointments and arrangements, Li Xun, the main official, naturally must be present.
