Returning to the Chengxin Pavilion of the Wangfu, Zeng Baohua and Changsun Moli had been waiting for a long time and were very impatient.
Seeing Zhao Si come in, they all stood up and asked in unison: "Thirteenth Lang, is the matter done?"
"It's done. Brother Huang asked me to first draw up the "Regulations on the Administration of News and Distribution", review it and then approve it, and send it to the provincial minister Mingfa. Brother Xuanming, I have asked you to get an official rank in the Zhimi Pavilion, the eighth rank, first.
Make do. I am sent to coordinate the official affairs of the publishing house and take charge of the news and newspaper affairs."
"I understand. I will go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs tomorrow to receive my official position, and immediately go to the Secretary's Department to take up my post. Yu Gaopin has given me the statistics of the tabloid. But the Publishing House is a noble yamen, and I am afraid no one will take charge of it. Someone is needed.
Cooperate. As Thirteenth Lang said, people with law enforcement powers need to cooperate."
"Brother Xuanming, don't worry. The emperor has summoned Wen Yi, who has the power to know about Kaifeng, into the palace. He explained it in front of me and asked the Kaifeng Mansion to fully cooperate with me. I have discussed with Lao Wen that Kaifeng Mansion will set up a West Review Post and let Cao Liulang take charge of it.
, and allocate three hundred troops to him. If anyone doesn't open his eyes, ask Cao Liulang to take someone to be this evil guest."
"Okay, Thirteenth Lang. What's the name of our newspaper?"
"It's not that several names have been drawn up, you haven't chosen them yet."
"Haha, Brother Maoming and I think it would be more appropriate for you to make the order."
"Then the Tokyo Times."
"Okay. I have found a good editor, selected a location, and found engraving and printing craftsmen. It will be published soon. I think the license for the "Tokyo Times" should be the first one issued by the Publishing House.
"
After listening to Changsun Moli's words, Zhao Si smiled.
This incident caused a lot of trouble, so I issued a license to my own newspaper. But this just showed that I was abiding by the law.
"Brother Xuanming, there is something else that requires your attention."
"I know. Winning over those tabloid reporters who are well-informed and all-pervasive. Reporters, recorders, Thirteenth Lang. I'm afraid this title is not that simple. Does it have any other meaning?"
Yes, those guys who don't know how to use any means to get dirty information from the palace, the three provinces and the high gates and deep courtyards are all talents. They are much better than those "authors" who can only use pens.
Already.
"It doesn't mean anything. It just means correspondent, which means a person who collects information."
After hearing Zhao Si's explanation, Changsun Moli lowered his head and thought for a while.
"Correspondent? Thirteenth Lang, those reporters who have been recruited will select the outstanding ones and be incorporated into the China News Agency, the headquarters of the Tokyo Times, as correspondents. The treatment will be favorable and everyone will make the best use of their talents."
Zhao Si nodded with relief, and Changsun Moli understood his intention deeply.
"Hey, you guys are having such a lively chat, why don't you have anything to do with me?" Zeng Baohua, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help shouting.
"You have other uses." Zhao Si replied simply.
"What? Brother Xuanming has entered the secretarial department of Qinggui, where will you place me? I also want to enter the secretarial department." Zeng Baohua quit.
"There is no room." Zhao Si spread his hands.
How do you like it!
"There is no place? The Calendar Office, the Association Office, the National Historical Records Institute, and the Bureau of Classics under the Secretariat Department can just make room for me. If I go out in the future, people will ask me where to go? Secretary Department
!I also feel that I have face."
"Brother, I have already obtained an official rank for you. I am a minister in charge of recording affairs, and you are also in the eighth rank." Zhao Si told the truth.
"That's good. I'll be in charge of my job. Mr. Zhang and I will work in the same place." Zeng Baohua said happily.
"That's a sent-in official, and he was sent by Cao Cao, the powerful magistrate of Zhongmu County and a householder in Kaifeng Prefecture, to join the army."
"What? You asked Brother Xuanming to join the Secretary's Department, why did you send me to be the county magistrate? Returning the household to Cao to join the army is the most tiring job in the yamen. Thirteenth Prince, I didn't offend you, did I?"
Zeng Baohua jumped up and down like a tomato.
"My uncle!" Zhao Si quickly stepped forward to comfort him.
"Three thousand tribesmen drawn from Xihe, Qinfeng, Jingyuan and other roads have left Jingzhao Mansion and will arrive in Kaifeng in ten days at most. However, the Xiaoqiying camp in Zhongmou Wansheng Town is still in a mess. I have no choice but to ask you to take action. It’s a very important matter, so you can’t help me, right?”
"Kaifeng Prefecture Cao Canjun's mission is to transport grain and fodder to your heroic cavalry battalion. Do you want me to be the grain and fodder officer?"
"Didn't Marquis Xiao Feng (Xiao He) also start as a grain and grass officer?"
The eldest grandson Mo Li advised meaningfully from the side, "Three thousand tribes are just a spark in Thirteenth Lang's mouth. Entrusting all such important matters to you is tantamount to entrusting Thirteenth Lang's family and life to you." for you."
Zeng Baohua laughed and accepted it happily.
That night, in the study room of Zhang Dun's mansion in Wuyangfang, Zhang Dun, Li Qingchen, Huang Fu, and Zhang Shangying sat together, all of them looking unhappy.
"The imperial edict has been delivered to the door. When I went to the palace to argue, the official took Xing Thief's memorial and threw it directly over." Zhang Dun's face turned red, his chest heaved, and his long dark beard trembled together.
"Where did the officials demote Mr. Cai?" Li Qingchen asked coldly.
"He was demoted to be the chief minister of Ruzhou and joined the army, and was handed over to Jingzhou for resettlement." Zhang Dun said with his eyes closed and a painful look on his face.
"What!" Li Qingchen, Huang Fu, and Zhang Shangying changed their expressions after hearing this.
The officials were really angry.
Cai Bian's demoted official position was in the same Ruzhou as Xing Shu's, and the resettlement place was also placed next to the Wugang Army. Maybe when the officials hoped that the two political opponents were fine, they could have a wine pawn on the hilltop at the junction of the two places. Song.
This is a kind of naked humiliation!
The three realized the seriousness of the situation.
The temperament of the officials was stronger and more stubborn than that of the late emperor.
The late emperor had a soft ear, and he would change his mind after some persuasion and support. It was different for officials. The more you supported him, the more annoyed he became, and the more forcefully he had to carry out the edict.
"It seems that Cai Gong's demotion is unstoppable. It's just a matter of changing the derogation of the official position and the placement. Otherwise, how can it be embarrassing for Cai Gong?"
Huang Fu slightly closed his eyes and said sadly.
"The Cai Gong incident is one of them, and there are two other things, but they are very difficult." Li Qingchen's face became more and more ugly as he spoke, "The officials have decided to summon Lu Huiqing and Fan Cigong back to the capital. The intention is very obvious, to appoint Lu Xun as the minister. Cheng, Fan Cigong is the censor Zhongcheng."
There was silence in the study.
After a long time, Zhang Shangying spoke.
His voice was slightly hoarse and a bit sharp, as if it was squeezed out of a crack in a clay bowl.
"Fan Cigong is a virtuous gentleman, so he is not a big threat for now. Lu Huiqing is a biting wolf. If he becomes Zuo Cheng, the minister, there will be an undercurrent in the government."
His words made everyone's wrinkles increase and deepen.
"What's going on? Why did the officials suddenly change their minds?" Huang Fu murmured with a grimace.
Yes, in the past, the officials were coaxed and obeyed by the big guys, but why did everything suddenly change?
His words were like cymbals, banging in the hearts of several people.
Zhang Dun suddenly raised his head, "Hao Sui quietly handed over the message, saying that after the official talks with King Jian, he issued an imperial edict to denounce Cai Yuandu and recall Lu Huiqing and Fan Cigong."
Li Qingchen was also awakened, "Last time, after King Jian had a dialogue with the officials, there was an internal decree to denounce Han Xueru. Xing Shu was also reprimanded. Didn't Liu Gongda say that King Jian also helped the officials?
He said something."
Zhang Dun stood up abruptly, his long beard trembling like a piece of black silk.
"I have gone through a lifetime of ups and downs, and I never expected that I would be teased by a little kid!"
Huang Fu was still a little confused, "Your Highness, Prince Jian, isn't he in the same group as us?"
Li Qingchen said angrily: "Who cares about going with him? We are just using him. But we didn't expect that this son is so deep in the city that he would stir up trouble in the ears of the officials, slander privately, and disrupt the government. Prime Minister Zhang,
He must be impeached!”
Zhang Dun had suppressed the anger in his heart and sat down slowly, his face serious.
"This child used to act recklessly, and was protected and protected by officials. He was always unscathed. Now that Jane is in the emperor's heart, it is even more difficult to handle."
"We must impeach him even if it is difficult to handle! It is the law of the ancestors that princes of the clan are not allowed to interfere in government affairs! Use this article to impeach him! Defeat him in one go. Otherwise, when Lu Huiqing comes to Beijing, we will not be able to take care of it. If the two of them are together again
If we are linked together, we are in danger!"
Li Qingchen's loud shouting echoed in the study, and everyone had different expressions and thoughts.
Zhang Shangying quietly raised his head, glanced at the expressions on the faces of Zhang Dun, Li Qingchen and Huang Fu, then quietly lowered his head, his expressions flickering undecided. This chapter has been completed!
