Xia Song had already pretended to sleep, but when he heard the noise outside the house, and Qiu Fu's flawless acting skills, he had to come out to pick up the guests!
The festive atmosphere of Xia Mansion has not completely dissipated, and there are still red and green clothes everywhere outside the house. Most of these officials followed Jia Chaochang, so when Xia Song married his daughter, he didn't show any sign at all!
A group of people couldn't help but feel embarrassed when they saw this scene.
After listening to Qiu Fu's report, Xia Song was sleeping in white silk pajamas. He didn't even wear boots on his feet, so he rushed out barefoot. This attitude was similar to that of Xu You who Cao Cao met in Guandu and surrendered. These things Politicians don't rehearse when they act, everything just happens naturally, and it couldn't be more real!
These two-and-a-half-year-olds saw that Xia Song was so polite to them, and even got up from the bed to greet them while they were asleep. In contrast, when they were at Jia Chaochang's place just now, they didn't even get a drink of tea. This difference in treatment was extraordinary. Big!
Everyone stood up and faced Xia Song, with expressions of guilt and flattery on their faces. As an old political fox, Xia Song had long expected these people to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. It was not surprising at all that they would come to his home at this time. !
Xia Song's look clearly shows that she accepts them!
It is not a shameful thing for Yi Zhi to change his family. What is shameful is that he has no money and power and has become a prisoner. It is such a reality! It’s not surprising that a good man like Kou Zhun would eventually lose his integrity!
Among this group of people, Gao Ruona, the Minister of Civil Affairs, had the highest official position, so he took the lead and said: "Master Xia, now there is a villain in the court, Yingting. Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, no one has dared to encourage officials to get close to beautiful women. , as ministers of the country, we cannot turn a blind eye...!"
Xia Song didn't wait for Gao Ruona to finish speaking, and interrupted him with a smile and waved his hand.
You guys still dare to call yourself ministers of the country?
The group of people looked at Xia Song in confusion, and Xia Song said: "What is Sheji? If someone sacrifices to the Taimiao, then it is called Sheji. The official family is at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period but there are no heirs to inherit the incense of Taizu and Emperor Taizong. If something goes wrong in the future, If we follow the actions of the thieves of the Five Dynasties, do you think historians will say that a hundred years from now we are ministers of the country or cowards of the country?"
Gao Ruona and the others were stunned for a moment, unable to react for a moment, after hearing Xia Song's words. . He also agreed to let Zhao Zhen expand the harem?
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they were frozen in place for a while, not knowing how to continue this topic!
Xia Song said: "Although the position of the East Palace currently has an owner, if the official family gives birth to a dragon son again in the future, will this position be given up or not?"
Gao Ruona thought for a moment and said, "Of course it's time to give up!"
"Then again, who wanted Zhao Zongshi to sit in the East Palace in the first place? Is this the official's original intention?"
When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to speak anymore. Xia Song dared to say that they had the courage to speak nonsense? No one can guarantee who will be an official in the future. If you talk nonsense now, it will reach the ears of the new master in the future. Isn't this the end of the day?
Xia Song is indeed Xia Song, how dare you talk about this?
Xia Song asked himself and answered: "This is not the intention of the officials! It is actually a helpless move by the officials who were forced by the powerful officials of the dynasty, and the officials reluctantly agreed!"
Now that Xia Song has set the tone for this matter, how dare they not agree!
"Yes, Master Xia means that we should also understand the Holy Will?"
Xia Song hummed, and then said: "Exactly! Instead of doing this, let's just follow the wishes of the officials. If a dragon son is really born in the future, wouldn't all the princes follow the dragon's merits?"
In just a few words, Xia Song's lies instantly aroused the emotions of these people. These people had just switched to Xia Song's family and Xia Song had promised them such a great future. Who could not be tempted?
They didn't know that Xia Song and Zhao Yunrang had already formed a private alliance. Zhao Zhen had to stop having concubines, and it was impossible not to continue to have sons. If he gave birth to a son in the future, there was really nothing he could do. As an official, he Protect Zhao Zhen's son. However, if Zhao Zhen has no son, then who should he protect? Naturally, it is the son of this in-laws. There is no need to consider it at all. And because of Xia Song's relationship, as long as his official career is prosperous, no one will You will suffer a big loss!
Who ultimately benefits? Xia Song undoubtedly has the greatest interests, and Zhao Yun has an extra insurance policy. After all, he has Xia Song as his political ally!
Everyone looked at Xia Song with hot faces, as if there were rich and powerful people waving to them in front of them. Just now when Jia Chaochang said that Zhao Zhen wanted to have more concubines, everyone seemed to be fighting, and they exploded. Xia Song said a few words. , everyone immediately turned the tide and decisively supported Xia Song's wise decision!
"Lord Xia is really wise and extraordinary. He really starts from the long-term perspective of the Song Dynasty and has far-reaching plans for the country!"
The younger brother next to him said with some worry: "Then tomorrow, Mr. Xia, will you always suggest that the official family adopts a concubine?"
This group of people are scared now. They are most afraid that Xia Song will ask them to submit their names tomorrow. If they, a bunch of little people, jump out and announce this plan, and then are abandoned by Xia Song, then they will completely fall out with Jia Chaochang. Being squeezed out by Xia Song again, how will he gain a foothold in the imperial court in the future?
After he said this, this group of people couldn't help but turn around and look at him. They came to someone's house to surrender at such a late hour. They were still worried about this topic. It would be weird if Xia Song wasn't angry!
However, they were only twenty-five young men, and Xia Song treated them so well when they first arrived. The nature of the fox was revealed one by one. Xia Song glanced at them and said, "Of course I won't tell them!"
Everyone was stunned and thought to themselves, wouldn't they think of asking them to submit a certificate?
Xia Song touched his beard and said: "Of course some people will say it! You just need to watch, you will find out whether it is a human or a ghost!"
Gao Ruona and his party were a little surprised. Besides them, who else would support Xia Song?
There will be a meeting the next day.
Hundreds of officials gathered in the Golden Palace, many with haggard and angry faces. Zhang Ze, the head of the Ministry of Industry, dropped a heavy bomb on the Golden Palace yesterday. The remnants of the explosion are still there today, and it seems inevitable today. A big battle!
Everyone turned their heads, Zhang Ze's face glowed red, he didn't know if he was afraid of being beaten by others, but the last one came slowly, quietly standing at the end of the stream, feeling much more confident than yesterday.
Yesterday, Zhang Ze blocked the door as soon as he came home and asked everyone at home to open their eyes and look carefully. If anyone comes to cause trouble, they should immediately report it to Kaifeng Mansion. It turns out that he overestimated this group of people. Anyone who dared to come to the door to cause trouble nor.
Xia Song sent someone to the mansion to offer condolences, and strongly affirmed the young man's heroic deeds, saying that victory was just around the corner, and hoped that he would continue his efforts!
Yes, Zhang Ze was sent by Xia Song. Xia Song told him that there will be many people in the court who oppose him, but when everyone reacts, many people will secretly support him. The best proof is that No one will embarrass him after he retires!
Sure enough, Xia Song got the idea!
The atmosphere today is even weirder than yesterday!
Huangmen sang loudly when he had something to do but nothing happened to leave the court. Zhang Ze, the head of the Ministry of Works, jumped out again, holding up the wat board and sang loudly: "Yesterday, I suggested that your majesty should expand the harem to inherit the emperor's favor. Yesterday, there was no conclusion Conclusion, I will report it again today, I hope your majesty will approve it!"
Zhao Zhen was very unhappy yesterday. It was rare for him to have such loyal ministers to consider the future of the Song Dynasty for him, but he was scolded by them as a rebellious minister and traitor, unfaithful and unfilial. He had already inquired about it, except for Xia Song's death, there was no wife in the court. Apart from getting married, who else is not a family of three wives and four concubines? They are all happy and free, and then they have to guard an empty palace with so many fierce and domineering concubines?
What kind of mentality do these people have? Judging from the photos, these people are really rebellious officials and traitors! He wanted to take a good look at who was loyal to the couplet today!
Gao Ruona and his party exchanged glances with each other. Yesterday, Xia Song said that he didn't need to say anything. Someone would naturally jump out and say who it was. This would save them the trouble of offending Jia Chaochang!
The ministers discussed for a while, but before the words subsided, Jia Chaochang suddenly stood up and said: "I agree with what Zhang Ze, the director of the Ministry of Industry, said. Now His Majesty does not have many heirs. He is the only one in the East Palace who is the crown prince. As we get older, the foundation of the Song Dynasty may be unstable!"
Jia Chaochang actually rebelled against Ge Chu!
Jia Chaochang, Jia Chaochang, spent all night thinking about it in his mansion last night. Now Zhao Zhen regards him as a thorn in his side, and Empress Dowager Liu does not come out to support him. Moreover, according to his analysis, the idea of expanding the harem was basically proposed by Zhao Zhen's ministers. In this case, Why not consider the Holy Will and take the 'credit' for himself?
Gao Ruone and the others had no vision at all, so they just wanted to use him as a shield to stand out. They couldn't understand the situation at all. How could they do anything important?
Thinking of this, Jia Chaochang waited for Zhang Ze to speak again as soon as he went to court so that he could show his loyalty to Zhao Zhen!
With a bang, everyone's emotions suddenly exploded. The prime minister took the lead in supporting Zhao Zhen to take a concubine, so who would dare to oppose it?
Gao Ruona was as surprised as anyone else. He turned his head and glanced at Xia Song inadvertently. Betrayed by Jia Chaochang!
They were really betrayed by Jia Chaochang. They went to Jia's mansion yesterday with the intention of gaining Jia Chaochang's support and suppressing the purpose of Xia Song and his gang. Unexpectedly, Jia Chaochang remained silent.
It turns out that he had already had second thoughts and wanted to go with Xia Song? Even his eldest brother, who was the leader, rebelled, but he didn't take them with him. He asked for credit and favor from the officials alone, leaving them behind with no scraps to eat. You Jia Chaochang, you are so shameless. If Xia Song hadn't given you They gave you some advice, and today they might even foolishly jump out and openly oppose the government!
Xia Song is so scary, everything happens according to his expectations, Jia Chaochang is so vicious, he is nothing at all, will they have a future with such a big brother?
Xia Song didn't stand up. He didn't need to stand up anymore. After Jia Chaochang, many people jumped out to support him. They didn't support Jia Chaochang. Jia Chaochang's behavior made them see through this person. They supported Zhao Zhen! They want to show their loyalty to Zhao Zhen and support the government unconditionally!
Xia Song just stood there silently and gained the support of countless people without saying a word. This is called a means!
In the future, Jia Chaochang will definitely bear the name of this sycophant! Everything is under your control!
Zhao Zhen was also stunned. How could Jia Chaochang be so on the road now and understand his own thoughts so well? It's a pity that this old guy is from the Queen Mother, and he is definitely on a different boat than himself. Otherwise, he really has to cultivate this guy. Sis!
"As expected, he is a loyal minister who is loyal to the emperor and the country! The issue of heirs has always been troubled by Lian, making Lian unable to face the late emperors. Since Jia Aiqing and Lian are of the same mind, others will no longer have second thoughts. In this way, Jia Qing, you will lead I ask you all to discuss carefully how to carry out this matter well. If it benefits the Song Dynasty, we will definitely not let you down in the future!"
Zhao Zhen gave a bad check, Jia Chaochang thanked him repeatedly, and the other courtiers were stunned. How did things develop to this point? It turns out that the big guys are planning to persuade Zhao Zhen to keep his pure heart and be a wise king, and not to be close to beauties. Who would dare to jump out when being treated like Jia Chaochang?
