Chapter 599: Neither is a simple role
This Di Renjie!" In the Fude Hall, Cen Wenwen showed a smile. Standing in front of him was a young official, Ma Zhou, who was originally in charge of the Chang'an case. At this moment, his face was calm, without any trace of resentment.
.This appearance actually made Cen Wenwen nod secretly.
"I very much agree with Huaiying's move. The officials of the Tang Dynasty should be like this." Unlike Cen Wenwen, Wei Zheng showed a hint of joy on his face and said with a smile: "If all the officials of the Tang Dynasty are like this,
Lord Chief Assistant is just trying to be a good person, so what will happen in the future? No one is willing to do these offending tasks, aren't those criminals going unpunished?"
"Huaiying's move really surprised us!" Ma Zhou also smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Ge, Xiaguan is replaced by brother Huaiying like this? Xiaguan is really unwilling! Why don't you let Xiaguan go to Huaiying?
Why don't you give me a try with my brother so I can gain some experience?" Ma Zhou said to Cen Wenwen with a smile.
"Don't think about relieving Di Renjie's pressure. Since he wants to do the heavy lifting, let him go." Cen Wenwen's face changed after hearing this, and he snorted coldly: "Is it true that we, the Tang Dynasty, are the only ones left?
How can one Di Renjie fail? What a joke, only he can solve the case, but others can’t. Isn’t it possible that you, Ma Zhou, can’t do it? Do you have to follow Di Renjie?” Ma Zhou was so scolded by him that he dared not speak. This is what Cen Wenwen said.
Zai Yu scolded him, saying, "Which other official would dare to treat Ma Zhou, a subject of the Eastern Palace, like this?"
"Brother, I think what Ma Zhou said is true. Di Renjie wants to deal with the Luoyang case on the one hand, and the Chang'an case on the other. Although he is capable, he doesn't do it this way." Ask Ma Zhou to help
Di Renjie also has a point. It's rare that Ma Zhou doesn't have any jealousy, I admire him very much." Wei Zheng persuaded at the side.
"Thank you, Mr. Ge, for your kind words. Thank you, Mr. Tong, for your kind words." Ma Zhou's face lit up and he said quickly.
"You don't have to stay in Chang'an and go to Raozhou!" Cen Wenwen shook his head and said: "Jiangnan has been pacified. After the chaos, great governance is needed. The army led by King Liang is about to return to Beijing, but Jiangzuo still needs people to govern.
You go to Raozhou to be the governor. You have accumulated experience and will have the qualifications in the future. I will report this matter to Your Majesty and the Crown Prince later. You go back and make preparations first!"
"Yes." Ma Zhou had a look of disappointment on his face, but he also knew that the overall situation had been decided and did not dare to speak any more. He could only nodded and retreated.
"Master Chief Assistant, isn't it a bit inappropriate to do this? It seems that Ma Zhou is not as good as Di Renjie, which will make outsiders talk about Ma Zhou in the future?" Wei Zheng saw this and couldn't help but said anxiously: "Also" Di Renjie suddenly made this move
, bypassed our Xuande Hall and went to Hanzhong to meet His Majesty.
What does this do to our Xuande Palace? This makes the entire Chang'an officialdom think of Di Renjie in the future. Hey, no matter how capable he is, it is undesirable to break the rules of the officialdom rashly. I really don't understand "Your Majesty's foresight."
How could he not understand this truth, but he still handed over the matter to Di Renjie and gave him the Cold Light Sword? "Isn't this clearly telling Di Renjie that this matter can be done with confidence and boldness? Chief Assistant, look at it! As soon as Di Renjie comes back
, I'm afraid a big prison is about to arise, I don't know if Lord Chief Assistant is ready." Wei Zheng walked around the hall dissatisfied, obviously angry about this incident.
"Brother Wei, why are you so nervous?" Cen Wenwen said with a smile: "Since the Cold Light Sword was given by His Majesty, His Majesty must have already made an opinion, so we don't have to worry about this matter." Compared to Wei Zheng's anxiety, Cen Wenwen said.
He was not anxious at all, and his face looked relaxed.
"You." Wei Zheng's expression changed, and he stared at Cen Wenwen carefully for a long time, but saw that Cen Wenwen did not look anxious at all on his face. He was moved in his heart, nodded, and coldly snorted: "You, Mr. Cen, have always been good at teaching others. You are good at teaching others."
Since you are not in a hurry to promote those young people, why should I be in a hurry? I still have something to do at the Yushitai, so I will leave first." After saying that, he ignored Cen Wenwen, threw off his official robe, and walked out of Xuande Hall.
"How can such a simple thing happen? If others don't understand His Majesty's thoughts, don't I understand?" Wei Zheng had left Xuande Hall, and Cen Wen was the only one left in Xuande Hall, with a hint of hesitation and helplessness on his face.
.No one knows Lu Zhaoci’s thoughts at this moment better than him.
Di Renjie is a rare talent. Whether he is Di Renjie's friend or his enemy, this cannot be denied. Even Cen Wenwen also believes that as long as time allows and as long as the experience is sufficient, Di Renjie will be the second Cen Wenwen.
But this Di Renjie is very different from Cen Wenwen back then, because at that time Cen Wenwen, Lu Zhaoci needed to rely on Cen Wenwen's wisdom, and the situation Lu Zhaoci faced at that time was not good, and Li Yuan was always there
Wanting Lu Zhaoci's life, even though Lu Zhaoci kept a low profile, his life was not very good around the Li family members, so he had to believe in Cen Wenwen. Even now, the reason why he still believes in Cen so much
Wenwen, on the one hand, Lu Zhaoci has already controlled the world and is not afraid of what Cen Wenwen will do. On the other hand, Cen Wenwen is the hero and has no way to deal with Cen Wenwen. Of course, Lu Zhaoci also trusts Cen Wenwen in the world.
Famous. But today's Di Renjie is different. Behind him is the prince Lu Chenglie, a young man, or a young man with excellent appearance, but without much experience in politics. The emperor Lu Zhaoci does not
He did not quite believe that his son would be able to handle state affairs well and push the Tang Dynasty to another peak in the coming days. Power ministers, party struggles, etc. were all problems that Lu Zhaoci was worried about. At this time, Di Renjie appeared
, a talent who can assist Lu Chenglie. On the one hand, this kind of talent must trust him, but on the other hand, you must be wary of him. To trust him, you must give him a stage to display his talents, and to be wary of him, you must prevent him from forming gangs and preventing him from joining forces.
He dominates the court, so he wants Di Renjie to be a lonely minister. Only in this way, if Di Renjie wants to use his talents, the only thing he can do is to rely on Lu Chenglie and never betray Lu Chenglie for the rest of his life.
Di Renjie got the Chang'an case back from Ma Zhou this time. Although Di Renjie's idea was essentially good, perhaps this matter was indeed related to the Luoyang case. Di Renjie might be able to gain a lot from the Chang'an case.
Maybe. But this kind of approach is unacceptable to people in the officialdom. What is this, snatching food from the tiger's mouth? Taking the credit of others and using it for one's own use is unacceptable to anyone.
Another unacceptable thing is the Cold Light Sword. Needless to say the origin of the Cold Light Sword, its function has made many ministers extremely jealous. The officials of Xuande Hall can appoint and remove officials below the fourth grade without an imperial edict. For
States, county governors, prefects, and magistrates are recalled, but for the appointment and removal of officials above the fourth rank, Xuande Palace can only make suggestions, and the real power of appointment and removal still lies with the emperor. Only this Hanguang Sword is different. It not only
Officials below the third rank can be appointed and dismissed. The most important function is that with this sword, officials below the third rank can be dealt with at will. As long as there is definite evidence, it can impose any punishment on the officials. This is the most important thing.
Now that the Cold Light Sword has fallen into Di Renjie's hands, everyone is envious but also jealous and fearful. This Di Renjie is so lucky that everyone in the officialdom of Chang'an is afraid of him. If Cen Wenwen gets this kind of honor,
Everyone can only say that it was expected, and everyone can only be envious, but Di Renjie is really too young. Not only is a young man in a high position, but he has also received such a great honor and is not in the officialdom.
Knowing how to hide his sharp edge suddenly aroused public outrage. Once the Chang'an and Luoyang cases are over, Di Renjie will become a lonely minister. A complete lonely minister, which is bad news for Di Renjie.
"When will Di Renjie come to Beijing?" Cen Wenwen asked softly.
"It is expected that we will be able to enter Beijing at noon tomorrow." The clerk on the side said cautiously. As for the contemplation of the chief and assistant minister just now, these clerks saw it in their eyes and took it to heart.
"I will pick him up personally tomorrow." Cen Wenwen said softly, as if he just said a trivial matter. But the look of horror on the young official's face proved that this was definitely not a trivial matter.
Di Renjie, who had such an official position, actually bothered Cen Wenwen to greet him in person. How many people could bother Cen Wenwen to greet him in person? When Lu Zhaoci returned to Beijing in triumph, Cen Wenwen personally went to greet General Li Jing when he returned to Beijing.
When he arrived, it was Cen Wenwen who went to greet him. In this case, Di Renjie’s face was really great!
It's just that he didn't notice the strange smile on the corner of Cen Wenwen's mouth. Cen Wenwen believed that what he just said would spread throughout Chang'an City in less than a cup of tea. There are no secrets in Xuande Hall, let alone
Cen Wenwen had no intention of hiding anything. He just wanted the news to spread throughout Chang'an City.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, the news that Cen Wenwen would personally go to the city gate to greet Di Renjie quickly spread throughout Chang'an City, and there was an uproar in Chang'an City. Originally, after these people heard that Di Renjie had obtained the Cold Light Sword, they came from the East Palace guest Ma Zhou
Taking the Chang'an case from his hands aroused ridicule and jealousy from others, and everyone was ready to look good to Di Renjie. But what they didn't expect was that at this time, Cen Wenwen was actually preparing to greet Di Renjie in person, which made everyone's faces shine with a strange light.
.Whether they admit it or not, Di Renjie has entered Cen Wenwen's eyes. Since he wants to greet Di Renjie in person, this can only mean one thing, that is, Di Renjie is under his protection. Well, to deal with Di Renjie, we must also
Consider Cen Wenwen’s feelings.
Di Renjie, who was traveling on the road, did not know the situation in Chang'an City. He was also thinking about the problems he was about to face. Of course, he was not thinking about his future, nor did he consider the meaning of Emperor Lu Zhaoci's move.
Quite what. He was just thinking about how to solve the Chang'an matter. Subconsciously, Chang'an and Luoyang were inseparable officialdoms. He believed that the Luoyang case would eventually be resolved by returning to Chang'an. Well, Di Renjie had always wanted to get involved in the Changan officialdom.
I want to do this, but now that I finally have this opportunity, how can I give up?
"Come here, please order Zheng Renji to stay in Luoyang and return to Luoyang immediately." Di Renjie thought for a while and said loudly to the guards around him.
At this time, he no longer wanted to wait any longer. In the past, he would have considered whether he had this right, but now that he has the Hanguang Sword in hand, who dares to make irresponsible remarks on this matter. On the surface, this case is still very complicated.
Jingzong is in hand, but he has the Cold Light Sword in hand. Even Xu Jingzong can't say anything. What's more, he believes that Xu Jingzong won't say anything. After all, this case also has his hard work.
Zheng Renji is an important figure, and thinking about it, Xu Jingzong has already set up many traps in Luoyang according to the original plan of the two of them, waiting for the other party to go up and die! Thinking of this, Di Renjie can't wait to rush to Luoyang right now.
Let's go and see how far Xu Jingzong has progressed the case at this time. When he thought of this, Di Renjie's face showed excitement.
Luoyang City received the news a little late, but the vibration level was no less than that in Chang'an City. After Xu Jingzong was stunned for a while, he finally burst into laughter. Wei Wang Lu Chengtai's face was pale, his eyes were dull, and he was silent for a long time.
After a while, he finally sighed softly and threw the fishing rod aside. Wang Zhongxin also showed a look of struggle on his face. As for the other officials, they were all frightened like bereaved dogs, and they were afraid that they would never be able to survive. At that time, Di Renjie
When he was just an imperial envoy, he was so majestic that he opened up the entire city of Luoyang, scraping three floors of land. Anyone in the family who was even remotely suspicious was arrested and interrogated. Now he holds a
Anyone who dares to block the way in front of the Cold Light Sword will probably be imprisoned, and will not even have a chance to resist in the end.
"Let's take action tomorrow!" Xu Jingzong was sitting in the hall. Standing in front of him was Xu Jingzong's eldest son, Xu Bing, who was also the only one who joined the army. Who made Lu Zhaoci still support the army when he was in power?
Xu Jingzong, who is good at speculating as a civil servant, will naturally not put all his eggs in the same basket. His eldest son joining the army is an example of this. Facts have proved that Xu Jingzong's approach is correct. The son in front of him has become a member of the Xingyang Camp.
One of them was General Ying Yang. When handling the case in Luoyang this time, Lu Zhaoci also personally ordered Xu Bing to lead three thousand troops to Luoyang and wait for dispatch. On the one hand, it was for the needs of handling the case, but on the other hand, he had to
He said that this gave Xu Jingzong face. This is also a kind of qualification, which is of great benefit to Xu Bing's development.
"Don't worry, dear Jian, the child will be carefully guarded. No one will escape." Xu Bing's face showed a trace of pride. After this major case, it can be said that after returning, his official position will at least be promoted to one level.
.
"I don't have to worry during the day, but it's at night. If I'm not wrong, the other party may take action at night. You must be careful then and don't make any mistakes. After Di Renjie's actions in Chang'an, he will definitely
He will come to Luoyang. Zheng Renji will also come back. When the time comes, it will be king versus king time."
"Father, is Di Renjie really that powerful?" Xu Bing asked slightly surprised.
"How about Cen Wenwen?" Xu Jingzong sighed softly: "He is the second Xu Jingzong. If he was not born in a different era, otherwise, even if it is not him who is sitting in the position of the first minister, at least he is Xuande.
A member of the temple. What do you think of this person?"
"I didn't expect this person to be so powerful." Xu Bing naturally knew that his father would not praise someone easily, at least he would not praise someone easily in front of his son, although his
His character is not very good, but this is a fact. From this, we can see that Di Renjie is indeed not simple.
"I'm afraid that the whole of Chang'an and Luoyang are now shaken. Holding the cold light sword in one hand and commanding the imperial guards on the left and right, how majestic it is!" Xu Jingzong sighed softly and said, "Although it is an offending job, it is a very powerful one."
Think about it, it is quite rare to be so majestic and have such trust from His Majesty." Xu Jingzong sighed deeply. Although he was a bachelor of Xuande Hall and had reached the pinnacle of ministers, relatively speaking, compared to Di Renjie, he still had
There are many shortcomings. After all, the other party has the emperor's trust, and this is the most important thing.
"My son, I will send people to seal the gate of Luoyang right now. No one can leave Luoyang." Xu Bing said loudly. He is older than Di Renjie, but now Di Renjie is at a height that is beyond his reach. The only one who can
What you do is to do better in your position.
"Don't worry. Everything is under control." Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "Not only is it under the control of me and Di Renjie, but also under the control of His Majesty."
"Father is saying that His Majesty also knows about this?" Xu Bing was shocked.
"That's natural. If Your Majesty didn't know, would you give the Cold Light Sword to Di Renjie?" Xu Jingzong said disdainfully: "The world is big, but if Your Majesty wants to know something, you can know it thousands of miles away in a few days.
How could His Majesty not know how far Chang'an is from Luoyang? He just didn't tell it. The opportunity has not come yet. Now that Di Renjie has taken action, it means that His Majesty has decided to close the net. "Humph, I have only just now
He entered the Xuande Palace and became His Majesty's Assistant Minister, but I have already begun to study His Majesty. Cen Wenwen is known as the person whom Your Majesty trusts most, but his understanding of Your Majesty is not necessarily as good as that of his father Heng.
Huh, this case is obviously a chess game played by His Majesty, and we are all pawns. Di Renjie is the pawn who crossed the river. Now I don’t know who is His Majesty’s final target. However, I think he is a big shot, otherwise there would be no need for Your Majesty.
