When Zhao Tai left Jingzhi Hall, he felt dizzy and dreamlike.
The three provinces are Zhongshu, Menxia and Shangshu.
Decision making, review and execution.
The power of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province is very great.
Only Shangshu Province can only execute, and can neither make decisions nor refute.
All the foreign ministers and the Zhao family knew that Zhao Tai would become the minister.
To the Zhao family, a ministerial order was not as good as Zhao Tai's original position of minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Therefore, if the Zhao family dared to let Zhao Zhongzheng take Zhao Feiyu away, it was obvious that they did not take Zhao Tai, a rebellious boy, seriously.
It's okay for Zhao Tai to rebel, but it's also okay to protect his daughter.
But the premise is that you, Zhao Tai, become the prime minister and assistant, a provincial prime minister. If Zhao Tai becomes the prime minister and assistant, he will be the head of the Zhao family. He has the final say in the Zhao family, and he can rebel no matter what. Anyway, what you say in the future of the Zhao family Have the final say.
No matter how bad it is, you can still be a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Let alone protecting your daughter, no one will care about you even if you call your own daughter "Mother".
But you, Zhao Tai, are both rebellious and unable to serve as Prime Minister and Assistant Minister. You cannot keep your position as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so I definitely cannot tolerate you.
Before entering the palace, this was almost a desperate situation for Zhao Tai.
He didn't feel that after he was completely loyal to the emperor, Boss Zhou was willing to completely fall out with the Zhao family for him. This would be of no benefit to the country or the country.
But there was nothing Zhao Tai could do. He had no other options at all. He said that he was going to the palace to explain to the emperor why he wrote a letter last night asking for a secondment from the capital.
In fact, it was also to seek some degree of help, to seek help from the emperor.
Unexpectedly, when he really put down his face, Boss Zhou actually handed over the position of Minister of Zhongshu in the three provinces to him instead of Shangshu Ling.
Then all the problems will be solved. Zhao Tai never dreamed that the emperor could do this.
There is no prime minister or assistant in the three-province system. The two most powerful people in the dynasty are Zhongshu Ling from Zhongshu Province and Zhongshu Ling from Menxia Province. The two of them are also mutually restrictive roles.
Zhao Taicheng is a servant of the province, instead of a hard-working errand boy, Shangshu Ling. Do the Zhao family still dare to treat him like this?
The answer is no. The Zhao family absolutely does not dare. Not only do they not dare, the so-called elders must also take the initiative to admit their mistakes and serve him like a father.
To win over a Prince of Yan, it would be beneficial to the family to have one of the "Second Prime Ministers" as a servant.
When he walked out of the palace, Zhao Tai was surprised, happy, and even more emotional.
He finally understood why so many people in the army supported Boss Zhou to become emperor. He was extremely impressed by this courage and magnanimity.
Zhao Tai couldn't help but think that if he had been a military general back then, he would have followed Boss Zhou and never regretted it.
From this moment on, Zhao Tai is no longer a member of the Zhao family. He is just Zhao Tai, the future minister of Zhongshu Province of the Great Zhou Dynasty. A minister who no longer considers the interests of the family, but only considers the country, the people, and the country. A minister. A loyal minister.
When he was about to leave the palace, a sneer appeared on Zhao Tai's face.
The emperor said that a servant should have the majesty of a servant. If you are insulted, how can you not return it?
In this case, Zhao Zhongzheng and some members of the Zhao family must pay the price.
After being an official for so many years, Zhao Tai is very familiar with punishing people. The emperor obviously does not want to release the news first, so he will not take the initiative to say anything and let those people continue to run rampant. When the news is announced, he can took revenge.
Zhao Tai, who was preparing to transform into a revengeful god, left the palace. At this time, in the Taiqian Palace, civil and military officials were full of confusion.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhao has become the Attendant, and then Mr. Zhou..."
"How could Zhou Zhenghuai's temperament be such a good one? If Qian Ji becomes the Secretary of the Central Committee, will Zhou Zhenghuai get into a quarrel with Qian Ji over political affairs?"
Wen Wu was thoughtful and shook his head.
Don't tell me, Qian Ji is a strong person, while Zhou Zhenghuai is a soft person. If there is a disagreement on important matters related to the country, it will be difficult for Zhou Zhenghuai to be a competent servant to refute Qian Ji.
On the contrary, Zhao Tai would never do this.
"It turns out that Your Majesty has never thought of asking Mr. Zhou to be your servant."
"That's not the case. It's a bad idea for Zhou Zhenghuai to serve as a servant."
Boss Zhou said while reading the memorial: "I deliberately spread the news to force the Zhao family. The Zhao family who is forced will naturally force Zhao Tai. The Zhao Tai who is forced is eager to love his daughter, so he will turn to me for help when he has no choice. But I didn’t expect that the Zhao family would be so cruel and forcibly abducted Zhao Tai’s daughter.”
"But Zhao Tai comes from the Zhao family, and the city is quite rich. If one day he gets back on good terms with the Zhao family and takes up the position of servant, I'm afraid...I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of betraying me?"
Boss Zhou smiled and said: "Zhao Tai is extremely arrogant, and he attaches great importance to family ties. If Zhao Feiyu did not hesitate to break up with the Zhao family, the Zhao family would treat him like a pawn and use him as an abandoned pawn, but I, Du gave him the position of servant, you are Zhao Tai, how would you make such a choice?"
Wen and Wu admired each other and said: "Your Majesty is wise, Master Zhao will definitely do your utmost for your Majesty."
"I don't ask him to be devoted to me, I just want him to be loyal to the people and the country."
The corner of Lao Ba's mouth raised slightly: "But if he can do it, he will be loyal to me."
"Then why don't you send someone to spread the news? Your Majesty will take the position of servant..."
"Don't worry, if word spreads, the Zhao family will come to admit their mistake, and how can Zhao Tai vent his anger?"
"Your Majesty said yes, so what do you mean, Master Zhou will be the minister?"
"That's right, the minister is not the minister, not the minister. The foreign ministers don't know the inside story. They all think that I want Zhou Zhenghuai to be the minister. In order to stop me, they will use all kinds of means. By then, the court will be in chaos. Wu Dingbi of the Ministry of Punishment , Zhao family, and many officials and aristocratic families in Beijing will join forces to criticize Zhou Zhenghuai. After Zhou Zhenghuai sadly retires, these people will inevitably fight each other and be suspicious of each other. There will definitely be many fools vying for power and profit in the court. In the end, Zhao Taicheng became the minister, and the officials and the family were satisfied. If I ask Zhou Zhenghuai to be the minister, they will naturally not dare to obstruct it any more."
At this point, Boss Zhou laughed loudly: "I promised them not to touch the aristocratic families and officials, but I never promised them not to kill each other, hahahaha."
Wen Wu took a deep look at Boss Zhou. He looked more and more like a military commander. He was full of 800 tricks.
Isn't that what happened? Everyone, including Zhou Tai, was played by Lao Ba.
Menxia Province, Zhongshu Province, and Shangshu Province.
The eldest, the second, and the third.
Qian Ji, Zhou Zhenghuai, Zhao Tai.
This is what the outside world considers to be an "internal decision."
Even if Zhao Tai becomes the third child, he has no rights, and if he breaks up with the Zhao family, the family and ministers will definitely try their best to prevent Zhou Zhenghuai from becoming the second child.
At that time, this group of uninformed people will definitely criticize Zhou Zhenghuai.
It's useless to just criticize. You have to find someone to take the lead, Wu Dingbi or other officials.
After criticizing Zhou Zhenghuai, the group of people who joined forces at the beginning will start to undermine each other. It will definitely be a bloody storm.
At that time, the emperor also began to act as a "referee". When everyone was almost noisy and almost dead, he pretended to be helpless and said, "Don't fight, don't fight. I won't be able to do it." , then let Zhao Tai be the waiter, you are satisfied. As for the thankless job of Shangshu Ling, give it to Lao Zhou as a consolation prize.
For this result, the ministers and the aristocratic family will definitely accept it happily.
At this time, the second wave of massacre came, and Zhao Tai raised the butcher knife high.
Artest said, OK, I looked down on me before and bullied me like my third grandson. How about it? How about it? I’m here now. Now that Artest is the second-in-command, why don’t I take care of you guys? You bastard who tries too hard to get high, how can I be embarrassed to be the second in command?
The aristocratic families and ministers who were punished did not dare to do anything. Who said that everyone was "stupid" and had to stand upright after being beaten.
But no one knew that all this was designed by the emperor Zhou Ke. From the beginning, he had laid out suspicions, adapted to circumstances, and constantly forced Zhao Tai and the Zhao family.
In the end, Zhao Tai was forced into Zhou Ke's camp, and the courtiers were killed one after another, and then Zhao Tai was killed again. Then he became a good old man, a wise king, and a good emperor who pampered his courtiers.
