Five hundred and twentieth chapters weakness
Li Qingchen had no intention of turning around and said, "Wen Yanbo's actions will increase and more. People around him are gathering rapidly. The court should be vigilant and have some restrictions. He cannot get involved in the Ministry of Personnel. I hope that Shangshu Liang can act impartially when facing Wen Yanbo."
Wu Juhou stood at the side door, his fat face was always condensing, and he nodded secretly.
Power is nothing more than money, grain and official hats. The official hats are in the Ministry of Personnel, and in the hands of Lin Xi, Lin Xi is Zhang Dun's die-hard supporter, and Wen Yanbo cannot get involved. The only gap is the Ministry of Revenue.
Liang Tao, the Minister of Revenue, was from the official family, and this is why Li Qingchen personally visited on a snowy night.
Li Qingchen said it clearly, Liang Tao naturally understood it. He pondered for a moment and said expressionlessly: "The Ministry of Revenue has always been impartial in its actions, so don't worry, Shangshu Li."
Li Qingchen looked at Liang Tao's expression, and his already blue face became noticeably greener.
Liang Tao's "always impartial" did not agree to Li Qingchen's request, but actually told Li Qingchen: the Ministry of Revenue has always been impartial, and he has not followed the orders of the "New Party" and will not follow Wen Yanbo's leader.
Liang Tao took this opportunity to announce something to Li Qingchen, Zhang Dun and the "New Party": the Ministry of Revenue is the Ministry of Revenue of the court, the Ministry of Revenue of the government, not the Ministry of Revenue of the "New Party", and the "New Party" is not qualified to make private moves against him and the Ministry of Revenue!
Wu Juhou quietly poked out a trace and looked at Li Qingchen.
Seeing Li Qingchen's eyes cold and his face was so hard, his heart suddenly broke out.
Li Qingchen is recognized as that in addition to Zhang Dun, the most determined "New Party" in the dynasty, this man had a more resentful attitude towards the "old party" than Zhang Dun. In the series of liquidation operations of the "New Party", he was the main executor and the most radical planner in the "New Party".
If Li Qingchen is angry and clashes with Liang Tao, the Ministry of Revenue will be in an extremely embarrassing isolation!
In the dynasty, no one would have spoken out, Liang Tao and the Ministry of Revenue said that the "new party" would not, Xu Jiang, who tried his best to remain neutral, and Wen Yanbo, Wang Cun and others would not have it.
Of course, if Wen Yanbo and others talk to Liang Tao, it would be equivalent to sending Liang Tao for a long time. The "New Party" will never give up.
Wu Juhou did not dare to speak out, and looked at Liang Tao quietly.
Liang Tao talked to him several times about the particularity of the Ministry of Revenue. Today, the words with Li Qingchen were not on a whim or were angered by Li Qingchen's "notification".
Wu Juhou was actually a "new party" and Zhang Dun was placed in the Ministry of Revenue. He was originally planning to take over the Ministry of Revenue and serve as the Minister of Revenue, but this plan was not successful because of Liang Tao, or rather because of Zhao Xu's arrangement.
However, as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Wu Juhou has been in the Ministry of Revenue for a longer time, and his mentality has gradually changed. He believes that the Ministry of Revenue needs to maintain independence and should not become a tool for Zhang Dun and others. Especially in the case of the major reform of the "new law", the Ministry of Revenue needs enough space to deal with this change!
After Liang Tao finished speaking, he didn't say anything and looked at Li Qingchen with a distant expression.
He was very clear about the consequences he would face after he said this. The "New Party" would not allow him to deviate from the "pre-established plan of the court" and suppress, exclude, or even send him away.
But that's what he did, and said so.
Li Qingchen did not expect Liang Tao to say so directly, and his expression became colder. He then calmed down, nodded slightly, and said, "I understand, you said this to the government."
Liang Tao's eyes changed slightly, and he picked up a teacup and drank tea, which was a default.
Wu Juhou at the side door was asked by Li Qingchen and immediately realized that Liang Tao told him that the so-called "The Ministry of Revenue should have his own opinions and not be moved by criticism." Perhaps Liang Tao had such considerations. In essence, he was for the government to see!
The reason is actually simple. Liang Tao is a member of the official family, and the Ministry of Revenue is also the case. Liang Tao cannot be the vocal worm of the "New Party", and the Ministry of Revenue cannot be controlled by the "New Party"!
The only one who can command him and mobilize the Ministry of Revenue is the official!
‘What a deep scheming!’
Wu Juhou's fat face wrinkled together, which was both annoyed Liang Tao's deception and admired Liang Tao's official wisdom.
When Liang Tao's words are heard today, although Zhang Dun and others will be unhappy, the officials will be happy. As long as the officials are happy, Zhang Dun and others will not be able to move Liang Tao!
Li Qingchen learned about Liang Tao's thoughts, and no longer felt resentful. He thought, and said, "Actually, if I don't say it, Liang Shangshu will also restrain Wen Yanbo. I'm a little presumptuous to come tonight."
Wu Juhou looked at Li Qingchen at the side door and suppressed his anger in a flash. There was no trace of it on his face, and his fat face wrinkled more.
It is rare in the officialdom who can bend and stretch, but it is rare for Li Qingchen to change freely.
In the officialdom, people who can easily control their emotions are the most terrifying!
Liang Tao was also a little surprised. Li Qingchen was not angry, but instead "apologized" to him?
Liang Tao did not dare to be careless and bowed: "Li, the two ministries of the household need to do too many things. Li Shangshu and I should walk more. Why not go to the backyard and have a few drinks?"
The Ministry of Revenue plays an important role in the "new law". It is not only money and grain, but also the power involved is the widest, including land, taxes, households, etc. The Ministry of Revenue involves almost all core contents of the reform!
Li Qingchen did not refuse, stood up and said, "I'm upset."
Wu Juhou watched the two of them stand up one after another, walked towards the back yamen, and slowly walked out of the side door, sighing softly on his honest face.
The "Shaosheng New Policy" is near, and the many contradictions that were covered up in the court can no longer be hidden. No one knows what will happen one day in the future.
The court seems to be stable, but in fact it is leaking everywhere, complicated and entangled with too many people and things. It was accumulated by the Song Dynasty's court over decades, and now it is full of the court and the government and the country.
This night is destined to be difficult to calm down.
When Zhang Dun finished Zhao Xu's summons and returned to the green tiled room, he saw Cai Bian's face sinking like water and his hands were trembling with a memorial.
Cai Bian was still very able to control his emotions. Zhang Dun was a little surprised and dragged his chair, sat at his table, and said, "What happened?"
Cai Bian's eyes were red, and the fire of anger seemed to be burning. He stared at Zhang Dun, his voice hoarse and depressed, and said, "The news from Wentai, Luan Qi, Ying Guan and more than ten others suddenly hanged themselves in the prison, leaving behind a last-hand book that denounced the court's "rebellion against the ancestors and turmoil in the country."
Zhang Dunben chatted with Zhao Xu for a long time, relieved the depression in his heart. When he was relaxing, he suddenly looked gloomy when he heard Cai Bian's words.
Luan Qi, Ying Guan and others were ordered to be taken back to the capital for trial, so why did they suddenly hang themselves?
Through thousands of mountains and rivers, Zhang Dun didn't know what was going on, but he could guess clearly!
Zhang Dun's sword eyebrows were raised, his face twitched again and again, and he said angrily: "I just talked a lot with the official family. The official family is firm in his attitude, so it's time for us to abandon our fantasies."
Cai Bian looked at his expression, his eyes twitched unconsciously, and said word by word: "Okay!"
Cai Bian was Wang Anshi's son-in-law, and Zhang Dun was the backbone of the reform school, both of which came from the Wang Anshi's reform period. Their ideas were similar to those of Wang Anshi and others, and were generally "repairing and repairing" and were not real changes.
They were doubtful about Zhao Xu's "destructive reform". Even though Zhao Xu suppressed his consent, they still had various thoughts in their hearts.
