Zhao Shan's face suddenly turned cold.
This old guy Zhang Guangdao is really old-hearted. He has just served as the governor of Wu County. Just because Yu Song is the governor of Yangzhou, he persuades Zhang Yingxue to speak ill of Yu Song. Is it because he is the governor of Yangzhou?
It’s time to clean up!
This also proves that Yu Song's appointment as the governor of Yangzhou is completely correct.
If the governor of Yangzhou did not care about the court and the people, but sided with the Yangzhou clan and was determined to protect the interests of the Yangzhou clan, it would run counter to Zhao Shan's policy and have a great impact on the court.
Zhao Shan felt cold in his heart. He stared at Zhang Yingxue who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "What else did Zhang Guangdao say?"
Zhang Yingxue is just a little girl, a little cautious, even though she is good at dancing, but under the pressure of Zhao Shan, her psychological defense completely collapsed.
I dare not hide anything anymore.
Zhang Yingxue knelt on the ground and said quickly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, my grandfather hopes to overthrow Yu Song and prevent Yu Song from targeting the big families in Yangzhou."
Zhao Shan hummed and said, "Is that all? How is he going to bring down Yu Song?"
The suddenly raised tone and the chilling air that burst out made Zhang Yingxue's scalp numb and her whole body tense. She didn't want to tell Zhang Guangdao's plan, but she didn't dare to bet on whether Yu Qinghuan did.
She also thought that Yu Qinghuan had no brains and would definitely reveal the circumstances of her persuasion.
Yu Qinghuan is a waste and has no brains.
Zhao Shan was different. Once he knew the news revealed by Yu Qinghuan, he would definitely be able to understand the whole story.
Zhang Yingxue had tears in her eyes, and she said quickly: "Return to Your Majesty, I have all told you. My grandfather's plan to overthrow Yu Song is a strategy of killing two birds with one stone."
"My grandfather's plan is not to let my concubine persuade your majesty, but to let my concubine confuse Yu Qinghuan and let her persuade your majesty to depose Yu Song."
"After all, as Yu Song serves as the governor of Yangzhou, he will target the big families in Yangzhou, affect the Yu family, and may lead to brothers killing each other. It is possible to persuade Yu Qinghuan."
"Grandfather said that your majesty agreed to Yu Qinghuan's suggestion, which would achieve the purpose of overthrowing Yu Song. If your majesty is dissatisfied, he will vent his anger on Yu Qinghuan, so you can help me."
"My grandfather had a good idea, but I found Yu Qinghuan, but Yu Qinghuan refused."
"I had no choice but to speak in person."
Zhang Yingxue knelt her head on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this is the whole story. I didn't hide anything. Please forgive me."
Zhao Shan's eyes lit up.
There is such a thing.
He met Yu Qinghuan yesterday and rested in Yu Qinghuan's yard for the night. From the beginning to the end, Yu Qinghuan never mentioned a word, nor did he say anything about Yu Song's inappropriate marriage.
Yu Qinghuan only mentioned one thing, and that was whether Yu Song was qualified? Will Zhao Shan be affected by Yu Song's official position? The topic then changed.
Yu Qinghuan is a smart person who doesn't care about worldly things, but he doesn't understand people's hearts.
That's good.
Zhao Shan admired Yu Qinghuan even more.
From the current point of view, this is the family tradition. Yu Yong is low-key and calm, Yu Song is sharp but talented, and Yu Qinghuan is not bad either.
Seeing that Zhao Shan did not relent, Zhang Yingxue cried and said: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. Please spare me this time. Please have mercy on me. Please have mercy on me."
Zhao Shan looked at Zhang Yingxue who was crying, but he sneered in his heart.
It is important for people to know themselves!
This is a very simple truth, but it is the most luxurious quality. Many people know it but are unwilling to do it. Zhang Yingxue is such a person. She can't see what's going on with herself?
There is never a shortage of such people in the deep palace compound, but they are quickly overwhelmed.
Zhao Shan looked at Zhang Yingxue who was crying. After all, the husband and wife are grateful for a hundred days, and said coldly: "Being my woman, you must be able to endure loneliness, maintain aloofness, and reflect on it."
After saying that, Zhao Shan left Zhang Yingxue's backyard.
When Zhao Shan walked out of the yard, the sound of Zhang Yingxue crying could be heard in the yard. His voice was hysterical, filled with regret and despair.
Everything was fine, but suddenly everything was gone. Zhang Yingxue completely regretted it and hated Zhang Guangdao.
Why are you looking for her?
Why involve her?
She became Zhao Shan's woman and could stay by Zhao Shan's side safely. Because of her meddlesomeness, she was disliked by the emperor and had nothing left.
Zhao Shan didn't know what Zhang Yingxue was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart. He returned to the study and thought about Zhang Guangdao.
Zhang Guangdao wanted to fight Yu Song, but Zhao Shan had no objection.
It is impossible for officials to compete for interests in a harmonious manner. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are people who are sophisticated and fight.
Being in the officialdom means using one's own methods within a certain bottom line.
If it exceeds the bottom line, then it won’t work.
If Yu Song is not Zhang Guangdao's opponent, even if Yu Song has good ideas, he cannot control the people below and cannot implement the strategy, so he is not suitable to be the governor of Yangzhou.
The means are reasonable and there is no violation of law or discipline, so Zhao Shan will not take care of it.
However, Zhang Guangdao used extra moves and also involved Zhao Shan. Using Zhao Shan to deal with Yu Song touched Zhao Shan's bottom line, which is even more unforgivable.
Otherwise, everyone would want to borrow strength from Zhao Shan.
Zhao Shan thought for a while and ordered: "Whoever comes, tell Gao Yuan to come!"
The soldier went to inform. Not long after, Gao Yuan entered the study and saluted: "Slave Gao Yuan, I would like to pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Zhao Shan ordered: "Go to the Zhang family to convey the decree. Zhang Guangdao violated the law and was dismissed from the official position and will never be hired."
"As you command!"
Gao Yuan answered without hesitation.
He didn't know what happened, but he didn't ask any more questions and hurriedly left Prince Wu's Mansion and headed towards Zhang's house. When Gao Yuan came outside the Zhang family's house, Zhang Guangdao happened to return to the house. Seeing Gao Yuan come to read out the decree, Zhang Guangdao respectfully welcomed Gao Yuan into the house.
Zhang Guangdao had a flattering look on his face and asked, "Eunuch Gao, you have worked so hard. Can you please give me a cup of tea?"
Gao Yuan said coldly: "Accept the order."
Zhang Guangdao saw that his strategy of winning over people was ineffective, so he said helplessly: "My lord, Zhang Guangdao, accepts the order."
Gao Yuan solemnly said: "Your Majesty has decreed that Zhang Guangdao violated the law and was dismissed from office. He will never be hired again. You are bestowed upon him!"
boom! !
Zhang Guangdao's mind seemed to explode, he was dizzy, his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
