Chapter five hundred and fiftieth chapters against the decree and correction
Almost all forces except Cao Yongli spared Ye An. After all, Cao Yongli, the privy envoy, also knew that Ye An was closer to his relatives and civil servants than to his generals.
As for the Cao family, they originally seemed to have a good relationship with the Yunzhong County Marquis Mansion, but what the Cao family's wife had done before made the relationship between the Cao family and the Yunzhong County Marquis Mansion extremely bad.
What’s even more weird is that Cao Yi doesn’t even know about this!!
In Li Zunxu's words, almost everyone in the Cao family kept it secret from Cao Yi. In addition, Cao Yi's second uncle, Cao Wei, the current head of the Cao family, was in the Yongxing Army. The Cao family had no choice but to listen to the words of Zhao Yingji, the daughter of the clan.
Almost all the men in the Cao family work as officials outside. For civil servants, this is far away from the political center, but for military generals, it is a great honor, because the generals can lead troops outside, and they all show the Tian family.
Trust it.
So Zhao Yingji was confident. She didn't want Cao Yi to know about it, so as not to ruin the atmosphere of this happy day, because Cao Yi served as the military governor of the Zhenrong Army and had considerable military exploits in the Huanzhou Rebellion.
Of course, Zhao Yingji was so proud that she had no place to rest, and she had also put behind her the things she had done to offend Yunzhong Junhou and the Li family. In her opinion, how could a small Yunzhong Junhou compare with the Cao family?
What's more, Cao Yi has made great achievements now. Once he returns to the court, he will definitely be favored by the saints and appreciated by the officials. It can be said that his merits will be greater than that of Ye An. So what is there to worry about?
The news brought by Lan Jizong was also very simple. Liu E wanted him to stay and report, and he also hoped that he could "seek truth from facts" in the court and make public how his ideas were secretly supported by Liu E.
Ye An touched the memorandum in his sleeve, frowned slightly and said: "Sir Lan, it's better not to tell Ye An's plan to lure the enemy? It's a matter of deceiving the husband of the two houses. Wouldn't it become a crime if he said it?
What is the secret plan between the saint and Ye An? This is not what is written in the Tiger Talisman document for mobilizing troops..."
Lan Jizong sighed. He knew that Ye An would not agree, but no one with a little bit of brain would agree to make things that he was not sure about at the beginning come to light after success.
"That's what the saint means."
"Then please ask Mr. Chen to play the sage's tune. I hope you will live forever and obey your orders!"
Even though Lan Jizong was prepared, his face was still ugly: "Are you planning to resist the decree?"
"It's not about resisting the imperial edict, it's actually trying to correct the imperial edict!"
Lan Jizong's expression changed drastically. He looked at Ye An's firm eyes and whispered: "How dare you, a kid, to be so bold! This can also come out of your mouth! Do you still want your head?"
Seeing Lan Jizong's nervousness, Ye An smiled and said: "Senior Lan, the more I say this, the more you should report to the saint truthfully!"
Lan Jizong's face was full of doubts. Seeing Ye An's sly smile, he frowned and said, "Do you have any plan to escape?"
"The more such a saint is, the less likely he will touch me. A young civil servant who is full of merit, and a lonely minister in the court, who presented auspicious and good seeds to the Song Dynasty. Do you think a saint can kill him? Gong Gun in the court
If the Duke knew about this, could he let Ye An die? What kind of chaos would there be in the court? How should the saint deal with himself? "
Lan Jizong looked at Ye An blankly, as if he had met him for the first time and looked him up and down: "What on earth did you learn from Fan Yong, how come you are becoming more and more cunning! Your methods are cunning and inappropriate.
Son of Man!”
Ye An smiled bitterly and clasped his fists and said: "What kind of means is immortality? It's just trying to save one's life. Offending civil servants, offending generals and offending saints, do you think I, a lonely minister, can do it? It's better than getting involved with them, right?
?”
Lan Jizong was stunned again, and then said thoughtfully: "That's a good thing, but if you want to be alone, you will offend a lot of people, you..."
Ye An crossed his hands and saluted Lan Jizong: "Since meeting the master in Songshan Mountain and arriving in Tokyo City, Changsheng has learned a lot. He also has his own means of preserving life. He will not die."
After looking at Ye An for a long time and seeing that he did not give in, Lan Jizong smiled happily: "You kid, if you can just be a little bit conciliatory, you won't be alone. The power of civil servants is huge and they care about the official family. Why don't you want to
?”
This is pushing him in the direction of civil servants! Ye An looked at Lan Jizong strangely and said, "Are the senior officials on the side of the civil servants?"
"That's not true of a certain family. Eunuchs are just retainers of the emperor and never associate with outsiders... You... don't try to taint someone's innocence!" Lan Jizong was startled by Ye An's remarks and quickly waved his hand to deny him.
statement.
Lan Jizong walked very fast, and the wind blowing under his feet made the courtiers look at him sideways. This high official has always been as calm as a mountain, so why was he walking in such a hurry today?
When they saw that he was leaving Ye An, the courtiers in the courtyard had a little idea of the problem. Apparently Lan Jizong did not get the answer he wanted from Ye An.
This kind of attitude actually aroused the favor of civil servants and military generals. After all, it is a gentleman's duty to keep his word. Since you want to be a lonely minister, you must do what a lonely minister should do. If you refuse a civil servant, you are not on the same path as a military general.
, let alone any force, even refused the invitation of the saint, this kid is really "stubborn"!
The court meeting began with the sound of bells and drums, and officials in court uniforms filed in. Ye An had rarely seen such a grand court meeting in the Song Dynasty court hall. The standards were so high that it even surpassed the one held in the Zichen Hall when he sent troops around the state.
Chang Chao in China.
The court meeting was held in the Daqing Palace. The censor in the palace, who was usually as sharp as a hound, stood quietly at the door and saluted each courtier who arrived. They did not represent themselves, but the country.
Of course, the courtiers would also be reminded of any inappropriate clothing and keep it in mind. After all, they should not forget their duties. Fortunately, the censors in these palaces were concerned about their appearance and would not impeach them in court.
In the magnificent Daqing Palace, after the courtiers stood still, they found that the official was already sitting on the throne, and Liu E had also appeared behind the bead curtain. This court meeting was not that the courtiers were waiting for the emperor and the queen mother, but as the emperor.
The mother and son of the family are waiting for the courtiers, which expresses the Tian family's respect for the courtiers.
Great court gatherings were rare in the court halls of the Song Dynasty. They only appeared during important festivals such as Zhengdan and Winter Solstice throughout the year. They were mostly ceremonial in nature and were used to demonstrate the imperial power and dignity.
The pacification of the Huanzhou Rebellion and the successful ambush of the party members were also in line with the nature of the Great Court Meeting to a certain extent, and were naturally the best means to promote imperial power.
Preparations for a grand court meeting need to start several days in advance, and even require complete preparations for ceremonial guards, public uniforms, etiquette, and even ritual and music accompaniment from the Jiaofang Secretary.
This is the first time that Ye An has seen Zhao Songtian's family with such a card. Compared with previous dynasties, the Song Dynasty's cards have never been very good, but this time it is extremely luxurious.
The courtiers were standing in the palace wearing formal attire, and on both sides were boxes and cages with various ritual vessels made of gold, silver, and jade.
While Ye An was still searching for the huge palace pillars, he was pulled into the ranks of nobles by Li Zunxun. Most of the rankings in the court were based on rank, and those with nobles formed separate classes according to their nobles.
Therefore, the positions of the courtiers in the palace are completely different from those in film and television works. Civil and military personnel are divided into senior groups, and nobles and nobles form independent groups. There are also intellectuals who stand on the side of the princes. For example, Feng Zheng is standing on the side now.
Beside Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian, they looked at Ye An with sly eyes...
