The First Minister

Speaking of which, Wang Jun and Guo Wei meet each other every day are almost the same:

Jun "Your Majesty, Zheng Renhui is very annoying. This person must not be reused." Wei "I didn't reuse him either..." Jun "I mean it must not be reused... that is, it can never be reused. "Wei "Ah? That's it... OK."

Jun "Your Majesty, Li Chongjin is very annoying. This person must not be reused." Wei "I didn't reuse him either..." Jun "I mean it must not be reused... that is, it can never be reused. "Wei "Ah? That's it... OK."

Jun "Your Majesty, Xiang Xun is also very annoying... Yes! I admit it! Actually, it makes me hate it very much. So this person can never be reused "Wei? That's it... OK. Since you said that, don't use him... But I still want to reiterate: I didn't use him either..."

As the sun rises and the moon sets, Wang Jun and Guo Wei talks continued every day. Even when Chai Rong, the heir of the Great Zhou Dynasty, repeatedly requested to enter the country, because Wang Jun obstructed each time, Chai Rong could only be far away in Chanzhou and could not enter Bianliang City. Because Wang Jun is there, Chai Rong could not have made meritorious achievements. This almost killed Chai Rong and the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future Battle of Gaoping. At this time, Guo Wei might not have realized this crisis at all, and he always agreed to all Wang Jun's requests.

Until one day, Wang Jun's conversation finally had an unprecedented new and creative idea. "Your Majesty, Wang Jun is also very annoying. Removal of his Privy Councilor's position. "Guo Wei" "Ah? That's it... OK..." Guo Wei suddenly recalled "What did you say? You want to resign." Finally, Guo Wei, who was never excited, became extremely anxious and comforted Wang Jun. But no matter how Guo Wei persuaded him, Wang Jun did not compromise and directly gave himself a long vacation.

On that day, Guo Wei was depressed alone in the palace, but what happened next made him terrified. The governors from all over the country suddenly wrote an unanimous letter to ask Wang Jun to stay in office. For a momentum, the momentum was surging and the morale of the army was floating.

This incident forced Guo Wei to finally invite Wang Jun's personal friend Chen Guan to make a statement, saying that he would go out of the palace to pick up Wang Jun and return to the Privy Council to do things, giving Wang Jun enough face. On August 5, Wang Jun once again reluctantly returned to his job.

On December 4, the Yellow River broke its mouth, and Wang Jun went to organize rescue and disaster relief on the spot. Taking advantage of this opportunity, on the 15th day of the first lunar month of the third year of Guangshun (953), Chai Rong finally entered the court for the first time and met his adoptive father Guo Wei. When Wang Jun heard the news by the Yellow River, he was jealous! He also returned to Bianliang City on the 17th. Chai Rong forced Chai Rong to return to Chanzhou on February 3. Chai Rong's biggest gain this time was that under the auspices of Guo Wei, he married Fu Yanqing's eldest daughter, Li Chongxun, the son of Li Shouzhen, and finally relied on his wit and bravery to save his life. The prophecy of the minister to Li Shouzhen, "This woman should be the mother of the world." But with Wang Jun, how long will the prediction be realized? At the same time, Wang Jun and Guo Wei started a new round of conversations.

Jun "Your Majesty, since the Prime Minister's part-time job as Privy Councilor Wang Jun is very good at work, and he is willing and has more strength, should he add some more position to him? "Ah? That's it... well. What more work do you have to do?" Jun "Come some affordable, Pinglu Jiedushi." On the 21st of the first lunar month, Wang Jun also served as Pinglu Jiedushi.

Jun "Your Majesty, Wang Jun's job is extremely outstanding, and his family is too poor. Can you give him some salary? "Ah? That's it... OK... how much does it add every month" Jun "it's more every month, it's not easy to calculate the fragments. Let's do this. There are still thousands of silks in the Zuozang warehouse in the Houzhou, so I will give Wang Jun an additional subsidy at one time."

In this way, Guo Wei obeyed Wang Jun and never disobeyed him. Until one day, Wang Jun invited Guo Wei to visit his office, Privy Council. Guo Wei saw that it was Wang Jun who built a new house that was "extremely extravagant" and asked Guo Wei to have a drink. After a while, Guo Wei was probably tempted by the new house and planned to build a small palace in his palace. But as soon as the construction started, Wang Jun came over, "Your Majesty, there are many houses in the palace, why do you build this?" Suddenly, Guo Wei's face turned red sharply, and his chest suddenly bulged, as if he had been holding it for a long time, he suddenly vented his anger and said a more abnormal saying, "Brother Wang, there are many houses in the Privy Council, why do you build them?" Wang Jun was stunned for a moment, probably because he was not prepared for such a Guo Wei. He never thought that Guo Wei could speak to him like this. It is said in history that "he is ashamed to be right."

On February 12, 953, Wang Jun had his last conversation with Guo Wei in his life. "Your Majesty. Li Gu and Fan Zhi both hate it very much, and must not be reused." Wei "..." Jun "I said it must not be reused... that is, it must not be reused." Wei "..." Jun "Your Majesty!" Wei "..." The reason why Guo Wei could not answer was very simple. Because Li Gu and Fan Zhi were at the same level as Wang Jun, they were both prime ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty! However, Guo Wei's silence was for Wang Jun.

It means weakness. So he became more and more arrogant. "Your Majesty, Yan Wei, Chen Guan doesn't make me hate it very much, so let them replace Li Gu and Fan Zhi as prime ministers." Guo Wei finally felt that he could not be silent anymore. He found a reason, "Brother Wang! Today is the legal holiday of the Cold Food Festival! How about you let me celebrate this festival and do this tomorrow?" In this way, Wang Junzhi left Guo Wei proudly that day, and left the palace of the Later Zhou Dynasty forever...

On the 13th, Guo Wei got up early to work. The emperor cried in front of Feng Dao, "Wang Jun bullied me too much, and wanted to expel all ministers and eliminate my wings. My only son Rong was so afraid of him that his father and son could not meet. Now Jun is a cardinal, and he is also the prime minister and leads a major city. Judging from his ambitions, there are still not enough. Who can bear it?" He ordered Wang Jun to be imprisoned. On the 14th, Wang Jun was demoted to Shangzhou. Soon, Wang Jun died of abdominal disease. Wang Jun, who thought that Wang Jun was suddenly driven to the place, would definitely not be able to understand and could not eat. If he didn't eat well, it would be surprising that he would have a stomach disease and then die.

On March 5, 953, Chai Rong, who was no longer restrained by Wang Jun, finally became the Yin of Kaifeng and King Jin (this official position will start the tradition of the Crown Prince in the Northern Song Dynasty in the future, and almost every crown prince was the last to take the throne from Yin of Kaifeng). At the end of 950, when Guo Wei raised his troops to serve the king, Chai Rong remained in Yedu and Chanzhou. After more than two years, the heirs of the Great Zhou finally entered Kaifeng City. Our protagonist Zhao Kuangyin, as Chai Rong's earliest team, returned to Kaifeng with Chai Rong as the deputy commander of the Xingshun Army in Huazhou. Chinese history is about to open a new page...

In December of the third year of Guangshun (953), Guo Wei fell ill. When he was ill, He Fujin, the governor of Chengde, secretly reported to him about Wang Yin's various acts of relying on his merits and domineering.

That day was the first letter to Wang Yin to report to Guo Wei. Without him, Guo Wei might have lost his head. Wang Yin's contribution was huge, so when he was dividing the cake, he was assigned to Yedu, the governor of Tianxiong (the first vassal state of the Tang Dynasty), the commander of the cavalry and infantry (the boss), and the four major titles of Pingzhangshi, and lived a happy life in Yedu. However, Wang Jun was demoted, and the information revealed was very bad. It would inevitably make Wang Yin think of Liu Bang killing Han.

The letter came. Guo Wei was left behind in Yedu before ascending the throne. He knew that there was a lot of money in the Yedu official warehouse. But Wang Yin felt that it was not enough. After greedy for the officials and the people, Guo Wei was a little unhappy. He had written a letter to criticize Wang Yin. He was investigated and Wang Jun was demoted. It was really bad to put these two things together, so Wang Yin decided to go to Bianliang City to test the emperor's words. On the 19th, Wang Yin entered the court, and Guo Wei gave Wang Yin a new title: Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Police in the Capital.

However, Wang Yin's entry into the court this time made a lot of noise. His hundreds of soldiers walked to the west of the city and rushed to the east of the city. In fact, some of them might have followed the stall and touched the big girl's butt and so on. But our boss Guo was so angry that he lost his normal thinking and analysis ability. However, he also received reports every day that Commander Wang jumped out of the capital, causing the good citizens of Bianliang City to panic. So Guo Wei judged: Commander Wang might want to be the emperor.

Emperor. For the long life of the Great Zhou Dynasty, on December 26, Guo Wei, who was half dead, suddenly changed his personality and summoned Wang Yin into the palace. He immediately announced his crime: rebellion! At first, Guo Wei didn't want to kill someone, so he was sentenced to Dengzhou. Later, it was estimated that Guo Wei had a headache again, so he became a murderer. Wang Yin was killed outside the city gate of Bianliang. Alas! He killed him, so let's do the aftermath! But Zheng Renhui, who was sent by Guo Wei to wipe his butt, was indeed not a human being. He actually took a fancy to Wang Yin's wealth and killed someone to kill him...

However, Guo Wei may not have the strength to punish Zheng Renhui now. After dealing with the two powerful kings, Guo Wei killed the last person named Zhao Feng. He was the general who shot and robbed Guo Wei's rebellious soldiers with bows and arrows. Now Guo Wei killed Zhao Feng and settled the score later? Killing is a reason, but it is too easy for the emperor to kill a retired veteran cadre. It is nothing more than to make false accusations and cover charges. But the real purpose should always be buried in Guo Wei's heart.

However, Guo Wei still said it, and he only told one person. Guo Wei, who was lying on the hospital bed, said to Chai Rong who was on the side of the hospital, "I listen to folk rumors that Zhao will take over our world. I think Zhao Feng's extraordinary demeanor may come true to him. So I killed him first to protect my Great Zhou Dynasty for thousands of years and a long and prosperous life." This can be regarded as Guo Wei's last words. When we all know that Chai Rong did not abide by this last words well. At least one person named Zhao was not killed by Chai Rong, but was reused. In fact, in order for Chai Rong to succeed, Guo Wei did a lot of things... (To be continued)
