Fast Traveling Underworld Wish Department

Chapter 83 Faint Lord 9
Well, the prime minister crazily agreed in his heart, this is what he said in his heart, and he really deserves the title of "deputy prime minister".

Shen Zhizheng stopped and took a look at Li Zhen. Seeing that the emperor above him was expressionless, he couldn't tell what he thought about what he said.Shen Zhizheng sighed silently, this is a natural emperor, and he was not wronged.

Shenzhi Zhengshi continued: "I think it's because the people don't understand the emperor. I ask you to manage the Guozijian, starting with the students of the Guozijian, and gradually let everyone in Ningguo know the emperor's great talents."

Shenzhizhengshi decided to take a step back. If he can handle this matter well, he might be able to continue working in the court. Otherwise, with his previous behavior against the emperor, he might have nothing, and he doesn't even know if he can save his life. .

The prime minister yelled at Shen Zhizheng in his heart, his face was a little distorted.There was a slight smile in Li Zhen's eyes, this political adviser was indeed an old fox.

Li Zhen said: "Aiqing knows my heart very well, so Aiqing will take care of the Imperial College for me. However, the current position is also inseparable from Aiqing. It is said that those who are capable work harder, and Aiqing will work harder."

Shen Zhizheng's eyes lit up, and he admired the emperor again. As a superior, being able to tolerate it and not acting out of it due to a moment of anger is definitely the potential of a wise emperor.

Shen Zhizheng bowed down and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to the Emperor's kindness."

This is Li Qi's promise.Li Zhen doesn't care whether his words are true or not, listen to his words and watch his actions, if he can't do it, let him go home and eat himself.

Of the three authoritative departments of the three provinces, the third department, and the privy envoy, only the prime minister remained unclear, and Li Zhen turned his eyes to the prime minister.

Tang Jing avoided the emperor's eyes. He had been the prime minister for more than ten years, and now a young emperor wants to bow his head, which is absolutely impossible.

Li Zhen picked up a document and said: "This is the confession of the officials arrested yesterday. They withheld food and fodder and cheated with barbarians. Does the prime minister want to replace my court in Ning Dynasty with barbarians, or can't wait to submit to barbarians?"

In fact, the prime minister was not the only one who had liaison with the barbarians. The few bigwigs in the court, the prefects, the privy envoys, and the three envoys all had a part.But whoever makes the prime minister the most ignorant, Li Zhen can only use him alone.

"Come here, take off the prime minister's official uniform, take him into prison, and investigate carefully."

Jin Yiwei, who was like a wolf like a tiger, ran in immediately. With the previous example of killing people in the court last time, Jin Yiwei left a big shadow in the hearts of the courtiers.

The prime minister immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, I am not the only one who has fornicated barbarians. Ask them, which one has never done it? Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The privy envoy stuffed the prime minister's mouth tightly, Li Zhen winked, Jin Yiwei immediately dragged him down.

The privy envoy seemed to have just realized that he had done something wrong, and quickly knelt down to plead guilty.

Li Zhen also knew their tricks, but Li Zhen didn't care about them at this time, and he couldn't kill all the high-level officials. Li Zhen didn't want to have internal strife while the external troubles were still in place.He doesn't want to be the king of subjugation!

Therefore, Li Zhen chose to turn a blind eye to what happened just now.He said: "The privy envoy loses his manners and will be fined for one year."

This means to gently expose this matter, but they must also be given a certain warning, which is called kindness and power.

Li Zhen continued: "The prime minister confiscated the barbarians and withheld the food and grass of the soldiers in front, which is the same crime as treason. After the investigation, the house was ransacked, the head of the villain was punished, and the three clans were exiled."

It is said to be verified, but in fact it is already a certainty. The emperor said that there is, who dares to investigate and say no?What's more, the prime minister's charges are real.

Li Zhen said: "As a teacher who never forgets the past and the future, I hope that all my dear friends will not follow the bad example of the prime minister."

"The people who are vacant in the court should be filled in as soon as possible. As for the candidates for the prime minister, they will be involved in political affairs. The privy envoy, the third secretary envoy, and the six ministers will write a memorial to recommend the person to come up. I will make the final decision."

After Li Zhen crackled and said a lot of information, he announced his withdrawal from the court.The remaining officials breathed a sigh of relief, the matter is finally over, and they don't have to worry about their heads in the future.

With a series of measures, Li Zhen finally took control of the court as a whole. Of course, this is only the first step. If he wants to lie on the credit book like this, then Ningguo will not be far from subjugation.

However, follow-up matters also need to wait until the foreign invasion is over before continuing, so let's start sewing and mending now, let's make do for the time being.

Li Zhen ordered: "Let Jin Yiwei pay more attention to the news on the front line, I want to know the situation as soon as possible."

Wang Zhong agreed, then turned around and sent someone to look for Jin Yiwei.

"Wait, you tell Fang Bai that Jin Yiwei can add more people at his discretion, as long as he reports to me. I hope that Jin Yiwei can monitor the affairs of the world for me in the future." Li Zhen said.

Jin Yiwei is a very useful knife, and Li Zhen doesn't have to worry about its backlash. What it does means that no one can tolerate it except the emperor.Only the emperor can give it such a great power, otherwise Jin Yiwei would not be as good as those idle imperial troops.

"Your Majesty, the candidate for prime minister has come up. This is the memorial of several adults." Wang Zhong said to Li Zhen with several memorials in his arms.

Li Zhen opened the memorial. After the arrest of Tang Jing, the former prime minister, now he is headed by Shenzhi Zhengshi, followed by the Third Division and the Privy Council.

The prime minister recommended by Shenzhi Zhengshi is Qin Ju, who is a general, not to mention that even if he is a civil servant, his qualifications are not enough to be a prime minister.Li Zhen knew that participating in political affairs was a gesture of favor, and also handed over the right to choose the prime minister to the emperor.

The privy envoy recommended Gao Gong. The information on Gao Gong is very interesting. When Emperor Shenzong, that is, Li Zhen’s grandfather, was in power, Gao Gong was a grand master and a first-class official. Although it is an honorary title, the emperor generally did not give it to him. , Gao Gong can get it, which shows that he is definitely Shenzong's confidant.

Then, the problem came. Before Shenzong died, he demoted Gao Gong to the end. He didn't want to see him in the capital. Finally, he became a Weisi in Tong'an County. Weisi is the county captain. There is no need for a county magistrate, so the county Wei manages and is called County Captain.

In the first year of Emperor Shanghuang, Gao Gong was recalled and served as prime minister. In just one month, he was relegated from Beijing and became magistrate.

Li Zhen only wants to use four words to describe him, ups and downs.But it's just too weird to see such ups and downs in such a short period of time.

Li Zhen asked: "Wang Zhong, do you have any impression of Gao Gong?"

Wang Zhong followed the prince all day long, how could he have an impression of Gao Gong, but one person must know.

Wang Zhongdao: "Back to the emperor, the servant doesn't know, but Li Fu should know that he once followed the empress dowager, and the confidant eunuch beside the empress dowager is his godfather."

"Let Li Fu come back." Li Zhen ordered.

Li Fu came back soon.

Li Zhen asked: "Li Fu, do you know Gao Gong?"

Gao Gong?Li Fu shuddered, obviously impressed.

Li Fu said: "Back to the emperor, Gao Gong is a lunatic."

Um?madman? "what happened?"
