Chapter 188 What a big storm
~.-~ ------..
At the gate of the Shangshu Province, there were 10 or 20 officials coming. They were obviously just entering the gate and preparing to find Tang Song. But unexpectedly, they met someone coming in, so they turned around and rushed over.
Although the middle-aged man in the official uniform did not explain the reason very clearly, Tang Song could grasp the general idea based on the words he shouted. It must have been Lu Yuanfang who adopted his list, even if not all, at least most of them.
As soon as this result came out, the people who were originally listed on the alternative list and then lost the election could not stand it, so they had the appearance.
One or twenty people rushed over in a swarm, but Tang Song did not avoid as soon as possible as the head of the official reminded him silently. Running was not the solution to the problem, and he might not have come to the Shangshu Province again in the future. What's more important is that he did nothing wrong at all, so why did he run away?
Not only did Tang Song not run away, but instead stood steadily. When the first official rushed into the front three steps, he exhaled and shouted like a tongue bursting with spring thunder, "Stop!"
The drinking was too powerful and the sound was too loud. The official was stunned for the first time. Although he was stunned, his feet did not stop. He ate and hit the person behind him and fell to the ground, tripping over the four or five people who followed him.
This fall, fall and trip made the gourds rolling in front of the Shangshu Province like a mess.
Although the imperial city has always been a realm of right and wrong, it has always been a novel saying that many people slap ghost fires. In short, it is just a secret method. A conflict like this is rare in a year. At this moment, one or two officials wearing various official clothes are going to besiege another official. The scene is really hot, and it attracted a lot of onlookers almost instantly, and people from the yamen around him are coming to join in the fun.
Scholars are very proud, and officials are also very proud. The official who fell first was a scholar, naturally has better face. With such a good face, he made such a ugly appearance in front of the imperial city. After getting up, he was so embarrassed and angry. His face turned red like a pig's liver, and even the shouting sound was extremely sharp. "Zhu Zi, I have fought with you."
He shouted, the official rushed towards Tang Song.
Looking at his posture of bowing his head and bending straight towards his chest, it looked like the standard action of a loyal minister in history books when he tried to persuade the king to touch the pillar. Tang Song curled his lips. The civil servants used their mouths, so what kind of fights are they playing! The action of fighting you is really unprofessional.
As a time traveler, Tang Song had watched many action movies in later generations, and he had practiced a group fight on Huayue Tower a few days ago. When facing this most nine-rate low-handed hand, he calmly turned his head, and then he hit the fat butt that missed him.
The official lowered his head and rushed like a crazy bull, but Tang Song took the boat with the help of the boat and couldn't hold back the momentum anymore. He fell and ate the dog with a "bang". This time he didn't get up again, and he fell and was angry. He was so angry that he fainted in a daze.
While knocking down this one, Tang Song was ready to get three punches and two kicks. After all, there were too many people in the family! Unexpectedly, the official had fainted. The expected punches and kicks were still missing.
After all, it was the official who was concerned about his face. At the beginning, Tang Song was angry because of his promotion and was blocked. But now, after facing many onlookers, they have made some actions that are inconsistent with their identities. Otherwise, the scholar could not rebel for three years.
The remaining officials formed a circle and put on an attitude of arguing with Tang Song, but Tang Song was unwilling to help them. "The promotion and transfer of the Ministry of Personnel is all subject to the responsibility of the General Office of the Ministry of Personnel. Who doesn't know where the Ministry of Personnel is? Just look for me if there is any injustice and come to find me? I dare to see if I am a low-ranking official position and bully me?"
Tang Song first said with a stern voice and walked towards the officials, and said in a deep voice: "As the officials of the court, you are appointing officials in the court, you gathered people to surround and beat someone who is a small seventh-rank minister. Although a certain official position is low, he is not a person who can be bullied. If there is no official impeachment from the imperial court today, someone will go to the Censorate or Dali Temple to seek justice for himself."
At this point, Tang Song shouted again with a thunderous shout, "giving way"
The official who was standing in front of him couldn't help but turn his back. Tang Song took a step forward and directly ran over, and then went directly into the Shangshu Provincial Government Office without reviewing it.
It's really not good at fighting, and it's really embarrassing. I just said that they didn't give him a chance at all, so they left like this, and before leaving, they all took all the rules. At this moment, the dozen or so officials were left in the crowd of onlookers and didn't know what to do. They looked at each other and couldn't make up their minds, which made the onlookers around them laugh.
After laughing, these people became more and more confused. Some people couldn't bear it and said they wanted to turn around and go to the Secretariat to arrest Tang Song; some people said that this was the time to go to the yamen after all, and it seemed that the matter just now could not be repeated. If the official affairs of the Secretariat were disturbed, then they would be a loss. Now they should disperse and submit to the court to impeach Tang Song; some people said that although Tang Song was abominable, they said it was not bad, and it seemed that the promotion and transfer of officials was finally decided by the Ministry of Personnel. Now if there is any injustice, they should talk to the Ministry of Personnel first. Some people even directly advocated that everyone just went to the Political Affairs Hall to look for Lu Xiang to speak.
There are so many people talking, and each sentence is different, and no one can convince anyone. As they talk, the differences within themselves become increasingly greater. There are even two impatient self-affected quarrels. Their performance made the onlookers laugh even louder. At that moment, someone was talking strange words in the crowd, "Hmph! Just such a group of mediocre talents want to be promoted. Is it really a bully for me to be no one in the imperial city?"
These more than a dozen people gathered together to find Tang Song’s bad luck, but now they have not found it. One of them fainted first. Although the others were not fainted, they were not much better. They became a laughing stock for people to have fun in the public eye of the imperial city. This face was completely lost.
The internal opinions were difficult to unify, but there were more and more people outside who were having fun watching jokes, and the laughter became louder and louder. Finally, some people couldn't bear it and left. With this leader, more than a dozen people turned into birds and beasts, and a few of them were walking away with their sleeves covering their faces when they were leaving.
When Tang Song entered the gate of the Shangshu Province, the head of the official who had reminded him had a smirk and raised his thumbs up at him.
He went straight to the office. Perhaps he knew what happened at the yamen and knew that he was not at ease now, so no one of the head officials under Tang Song was in charge of him was in trouble. After waiting for a while, only the Yuanwailang, named Wei Bo, came in and shook his way around and comforted him.
Although they were all talking ordinary words, what made Wei Bo rare is that his comfort was indeed sincere, at least in Tang Song's opinion, and his attitude towards him was closer to yesterday.
While the two were talking, Wang Feng, the head of Tang Song's subordinate, looked outside. After asking, he said that someone from the Ministry of Rites came to look for Tang Capital.
"Since you have business here, I won't bother you. In short, there is nothing to bother with the matter just now. Tang Dushi has been in the officialdom for a short time. Nowadays, if you don't do anything, you will be fine. Instead, if you really do things, you will inevitably have to recruit things. You will inevitably find you... Forget it, let's not talk about it, just be busy, just a few steps, no need to send it away." After saying that, Wei Bo, the man who was in a state of mind, walked out of the door with a cool attitude, and said a few words to others after going out.
After Wei Bo left, the chief officer Wang Feng came in with the Ministry of Rites. Tang Song saw the first smile of today, "Ji Zhen. Didn't you say you wanted to go to Gyeonggi Province to review the tribute students in various prefectures and townships? Why did you come back so soon?"
The so-called people from the Ministry of Rites were He Zhizhang. After Wang Feng left, he turned around and closed the door of the office room, and laughed and said, "This trip to Gyeonggi Province has not been short. I came back last night. I didn't expect to see such a wonderful episode today. You didn't see the embarrassment of those people just now. Now it's good. From now on, these people will never leave the imperial city for one day, and they will be laughed at by people for a day. It's really a shame for themselves."
At this point, He Zhizhang pretended to bow and bowed, "By the way, I forgot to congratulate you on your successful career."
"But what can I have to congratulate with for a sesame mung bean official?"
He heard Tang Song's words, He Zhizhang was unwilling to do it, "Are you sesame and mung beans from the seventh grade? Then what do I say from the eighth grade? Even if I can be promoted smoothly after the exam next year, I will only be from the seventh grade lower level."
What He Zhizhang said is also the truth. The starting point for the distribution of new Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty was low, and it usually started from the eighth grade. He Zhizhang had a certain identity as the eighth grade. As for many others, they were from the eighth grade.
Since the officials and officials were separated by flowing inside and outside, it was unnecessary to make such complicated things inside. He Zhizhang's casual joke reminded Tang Song of many thoughts he had made from the list a few days ago.
"Okay, don't talk about these useless things, why did you come here today?"
He Zhizhang is a joke-loving person, and he was even more so in front of Tang Song. He laughed and said, "I originally reported to Wei Yuanwairang about the situation when he went to Gyeonggi Province this time. It happened that he was with you, so I bumped into him."
The Ministry of Rites ranks third among the six ministries, just like the Ministry of Personnel, it is under the jurisdiction of the Left Pushe in the Shangshu Province. After He Zhizhang made a long-term mission, he reported the situation to the Yuanwailang who was left by the Shangshu Zuo Pushe. This is the proper meaning in the title.
Speaking of this, Tang Song happened to ask about Wei Bo's origin. He Zhizhang has been in office for more than a year, so he is clear about this, "Our Wei Yuanwailang has a great origin."
After seeing Wei Bo's office and clothing, Tang Song was mentally prepared, so he was not surprised at this moment, just asked: "What's the origin?"
He Zhizhang lowered his voice, "He is the direct relative of Princess Luling."
"King Luling? Is Li Xian who is now under house arrest in Fangzhou?"
He Zhizhang nodded, Tang Song sucked and smiled, "That's how Wei Yuanwailang is really a big source."
Nowadays, the dispute between Wu and Li Zhi in the court is actually the identity of an heir. The Wu Party is not to mention respecting Wu Chengsi, and the target Li Party is Li Xian, the King of Luling. Li Xian was under house arrest for many years and was accompanied by only one concubine Wei, so he obeyed his will. Wei Bo is also the direct relative of Wei. If Li Xian was in power, this person would be able to soar to the sky, which is really of great origin.
He Zhizhang nodded, "But according to the current court, his identity is really embarrassing. Therefore, although he is a sixth-rank official, he never has any director on weekdays, and this is how he gets along well with Doctor Liu."
"How is he a normal person?"
"This person is very proud, and there are not many people who can see him. Fortunately, he neither takes on power nor does he take on things, and has a deep background. Therefore, although his temperament is not likable, he has not made much hatred."
"Huh?" He Zhizhang's answer was beyond Tang Song's expectations. Judging from his own contact with Wei Bo, he thought he was a person who was good at winning over relationships and was versatile everywhere, but he didn't expect that he had such a proud side.
But why does such a arrogant person treat him differently? As He Zhizhang said, he neither takes power nor takes matters. In this way, the original idea of guessing that he wanted to win over him against Doctor Liu was completely untrue.
How strange!
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for the time being. Tang Song threw this question aside and talked to He Zhizhang about his experience in Gyeonggi Province.
He Zhizhang has heard a lot in Gyeonggi Province, but what he said most is the quiet change in the current poetry world.
With the turmoil of Qingyin Wenshe, with the rise of Hongwen Yinshe like a comet and the gradual wind of "Qingyin Hongwen Bimonthly" in the north, it was also due to the decline of the four families. The current Anyi County Magistrate Chen Zi'ang proposed that the new style of "promoting character and promoting passion and sending" that was vigorously cited by Qingyin Wenshe has gradually been accepted by Shilin and poetry world as silently.
This move marks the inevitable decline of the style of palace style poetry that has been imprisoned for hundreds of years since the Six Dynasties and Qi and Liang dynasties. When this new literary theory that is more in line with the spirit of the times finally replaces the status of palace style poetry, the most brilliant in the history of poetry for thousands of years will completely break through the darkness before dawn, and announce its arrival with the majestic momentum of "Don't you see the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky."
The reason why Chen Zi'ang, a marginal figure in the poetry world, was able to achieve such a great spread effect in such a short period of time, Tang Song was the most important reason for his contribution to accelerating this process through his own efforts. He advanced the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the history of poetry by nearly twenty years. It can even be said that he pushed open the door to the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the history of poetry with his hands.
As a time traveler who loves ancient culture, although Tang Song cannot share this strong sense of pride and accomplishment with others, as He Zhizhang's narration, waves of surging torrents inevitably surged in his heart.
How many flag poets can be achieved in twenty years? How many flag poets can be achieved? How strong should the sense of accomplishment arise when thinking about these questions?
Even if we put aside these things that cannot be said to others, Hongwen Seal Society has benefited a lot in this process. After all, this new style in the poetry world, this new literary proposition was exclusively published and promoted by Hongwen Seal Society. The more people accepted the new literary proposition, the authoritative status of Hongwen Seal Society and its affiliated "Qingyin Hongwen Bimonthly" gradually became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The smooth expansion process of Hongwen Seal Society in the North is itself one of the best examples.
One day, no matter whether the land is north or south, no matter whether people are old or young, the Hongwen Seal Society and the Qingyin Hongwen Bimonthly will surely become a banner that leads the public opinion of the Shilin people. In this era, those who win the Shilin people mean winning the hearts of the people.
This is the most solid foundation that Tang Song laid for himself as a time traveler.
While the two were talking, they heard a turbulent sound outside. Before Tang Song could ask, He Zhizhang ran out to ask. Later, he returned to the door and waved to Tang Song again and again, "Go out and have a look, there is a lot of fun."
There was nothing wrong in the office room, so Tang Song simply went to the gate of the Shangshu Province with him, and encountered many officials along the way, who acted the same as them.
When the two of them arrived at the gate, there was already a rush of people inside and outside the gate. Fortunately, He Zhizhang was opening the way in front, and Tang Song followed him and drilled out of the layers of people at the gate.
When they finally reached the front of the crowd, they saw that the gates of the temples and prisons on both sides of the imperial city were already full of people. This incident was obviously a collective movement from the major yamen in the imperial city. The one who caused this lively scene was a group of people walking in the middle of the imperial city.
There were about a thousand people in this group, and there were neatly lined up. There were all people wearing all kinds of clothes, including white-haired old farmers in thick clothes, merchants in brocade clothes and big belly, scholars in green collars, craftsmen in black clothes, and even singers and dancers with heavy makeup. In short, there are representatives of this group of people who can imagine in Shifan.
The one who walked in front of this group of people from all walks of life was Wu Chengsi, the chief assistant minister in the current political affairs hall. A step behind him, following another man in a royal garment. It was also under He Zhizhang's introduction that Tang Song finally met Wu Sansi for the first time.
Wu Chengsi looked solemn, and he bent down and held a stamp with his hands. He led Wu Sansi and more than a thousand representatives of the people to travel to the palace. Tang Song, like everyone else around, didn't know which Erwu performed, but everyone knew that this time the matter must be small.
Then, chaos came in, saying that the more than 1000 people who could enter the imperial city were only a small part. Outside the imperial city, about 25,000 people gathered. As for what they were going to do, it has not been announced yet.
This strange team finally walked to the Chengtian Gate of the Palace City under the gaze of Manhuangcheng. Because the Shangshu Province occupied a good position, Tang Song clearly saw Wu Chengsi and others leading Wu Sansi and others to perform three kowtows and nine bows that were only available at the dynasty meeting. Then, Wu Chengsi, who was kneeling on the ground, raised the stamp in his hand high. Then, the eunuch on duty took the stamp and rushed into the palace.
Wu Chengsi and others were just kneeling and waiting. When Tang Song and others wanted to see the result of this excitement, they saw several other husbands in the Political Affairs Hall coming one after another, forcing each door to watch the excitement and retreating quickly. The one who walked to the gate of the Shangshu Province was Mr. Li Zhaode. Tang Song saw his face ashen with his own eyes and his tone was extremely harsh when he ordered everyone to return to the yamen.
Li Zhaode was the highest official of Li Dang in the court after Di Renjie went to prime minister. What made him so angry?
Although they went back to the yamen to sit in their offices, there were only a few people in the imperial city who could do things. However, no one took this rare opportunity to escape, and the imperial city, which was quite noisy in the past, fell into a strange silence.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for a reason, waiting for a result.
What exactly is Erwu going to do?
What will be the result of what they are going to do?
Seeing that the time to scatter at noon was getting closer and closer. Just as many officials smacked their lips with regret, the final news finally came back.
This time, Wu Chengsi led Wu Sansi and more than 26,000 people to submit the report, and asked the Holy Emperor to add the title of "Emperor of the Old and Modern Times of the Wheel of the Wheel of the God of the Wheel of the Wheel of the World"
After receiving the letter, Wu Zetian happily accepted it and summoned Erwu and some representatives of the petitioners, comforted everyone. He immediately summoned the Political Affairs Hall to discuss matters and issued an edict to amnesty the world.
Wu Chengsi's move was obviously because the drunkard was not in the wine. After Tang Song implemented the news, he only had one idea in his mind, "The convergence of the two martial arts is undoubtedly true, and history may really change unexpectedly."
It seemed to be to prove his view that a similar scene happened again the next morning. Wu Chengsi was still in charge, and Wu Sansi was still following Wu Chengsi closely, but this time the team behind the two had been replaced by the Four-Ringers and Hu people in various Hu costumes, and they vaguely represented the aliens in hundreds of prisoners under the command of Wu Zhou.
This time they submitted a letter to request that copper and iron be cast in Luoyang be Tianshu to "demolish the Tang Dynasty and sue Zhou". The scale of Tianshu is so large that it is terrifying in the world. If it can be truly built, the regulation of more than a hundred feet high will make it far away and become the highest thing in the capital of the gods.
The purpose of the establishment is to dismiss the Tang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty. The regulations set up are so supreme, and their symbolic significance is already obvious.
On the first day, Wu Chengsi brought representatives of the people of Wuzhou from 360 directly under the prefectures to ask the emperor to give him the title of honor. On the second day, he brought representatives of the people of nearly 700 prisoners to build the Tianshu, which was unprecedented in scale. He appeared as the general representative of the people of the world, and his intention was already the lice on the bald head - it was obvious.
Fortunately, although Wu Zetian also comforted the four barbarians and Hu people in this case, he did not immediately respond to the letter he presented, but instead handed it over to the political affairs hall for discussion.
Needless to say, this was another verbal battle, Li Zhaode took the lead in opposing it, and his responsive words were completely ignored. However, Wu Chengsi, the chief minister of the incident, not only did not avoid the rules, but instead went barely. The two prime ministers quarreled in the political affairs hall and almost started fighting.
Then, the whole court was like a hornet's nest that was poked over. The disputes in the Political Affairs Hall were amplified ten times and a hundred times and then staged again. Memorials flew towards the inner court like snowflakes. In response, Wu Zetian did not say a word before, and watched the dispute.
It was in this chaos that Tang Song was called to Lu Yuanfang's office room. (..)
