Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Once the emperor and the courtiers, in order to consolidate the power of the new emperor, the officials of the princeling party are going to attack the old officials who are still loyal to the emperor.

The attack on Li Gang is to warn the officials of the neutral faction that you can remain neutral, but you must never speak for the old officials of the Supreme Emperor.

Otherwise, even a person like Li Gang who has made contributions to the new emperor will not escape political blows.

That guy Geng Nanzhong can bite Li Gang, Minister of Qingliu, who else can't he bite?

This kind of mad dog can't be provoked, can't be provoked!

Geng Nanzhong's performance quickly took effect, and officials from all states in the world chose sides to take orders from the new emperor Zhao Huan.

After all, the Supreme Emperor represents the past, and His Majesty the Emperor is the future.

Soon, even the officials in the Jiangnan area moved closer to His Majesty the Emperor.

After the small court of the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji arrived in Yangzhou and Zhenjiang, he ordered the states in the south of the Yangtze River to send money and food to the line of the Supreme Emperor, which was equivalent to withholding the taxes in the south of the Yangtze River.

After the emperor Zhao Huanteng made his move, he immediately issued an order, ordering officials in Huainan and Jiangnan not to send national taxes to the Supreme Emperor, but all to Bianliang City, Tokyo.

On the surface, this matter is a dispute over money, food and taxes, but in fact it is a naked battle for imperial power.

The officials in the Jianghuai area couldn't bear the pressure, and they all turned to Emperor Zhao Huan, cutting off the supply of money and food to Zhenjiang.

As a result, the Taishanghuang Zhao Ji and his party were pulled from the bottom of the pot, and it was difficult to maintain the operation of a small court.

Forced to have no choice but to accept the emperor's request, Zhao Ji, the Supreme Emperor, drove back to Bianliang City, Tokyo.

Chapter 9 Eleven

Although Ximenqing is the king of Liangshan in Shuibo, he always pays attention to the political trends in Bianliang City, Tokyo.

Lu Xiaoyi has been lurking in Bianliang City, Tokyo during this period of time, and has continuously sent back the intel to Yanggu County.

Even when the Jin army besieged the city, Lu Xiaoyi did not leave Bianliang City in Tokyo to take refuge.Because the official Ximen Qing had told him long ago that the Jin army would not break through Bianliang City in Tokyo, and the siege would leave within a month.As long as enough food is prepared, staying in Bianliang City in Tokyo is safe and secure.

Lu Xiaoyi led his men to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and even took the opportunity of the mob in the city to make troubles, and secretly cooperated with the government to eradicate a few gangsters who took advantage of the fire to rob, and further expanded his power.

When there were signs of a struggle between old and new factions in the imperial court, Lu Xiaoyi, who got the news, passed it on to Ximen Qing as quickly as possible.

After Ximenqing got the news, he immediately called for Luan Tingyu and Brother Qiao Yun and asked them to follow their plan.

……

Taiwei Gao Qiu is very easy to follow the wind, and when he smelled a trace of high-level struggle, he immediately chose to join the new emperor Zhao Huan without hesitation.

A few days after the Jin army retreated, he took the fierce general "Double Whip" Hu Yanzhuo, "Yumu Victory General" Han Tao, "Tianmu General" Peng Qi, and [-] troops assembled on Southwest Beijing Road to the north and returned to Bianliang, Tokyo. city.

The reason why Gao Qiu was so decisive was because he failed to win favor with the Supreme Emperor and was excluded by Tong Guan, Cai You and others.

After the Taishanghuang's fleet was attacked by Ximenqing and the imperial guards were dispersed, Gao Qiu fled to Runing County, relying on the soldiers and horses of his confidant general Hu Yanzhuo and others to protect himself.

After that, Gao Qiu also tried to continue to follow the footsteps of the Supreme Emperor, and led the troops to escort him.But Tong Guan, who holds the victory in the Jie army, flatly rejected Gao Qiu's proposal and did not allow him to lead the troops close to Yu Jia.

Gao Qiu, who was excluded from the inner circle of the Supreme Emperor, became furious and immediately turned his allegiance to the new emperor Zhao Huan.He wrote to the imperial court early, claiming to recruit people to go north to serve the king.

However, Gao Qiu knew his strength. Although he recruited an army and ordered Hu Yanzhuo and other generals to train him, he did not dare to rush north to fight the Jin army.

After all, Hu Yanzhuo and others lost to the Liangshan Army back then, and lost all their most elite armored serial horses.

Now they are all newly recruited, so there is no fighting power.

After learning that the Jin army had withdrawn to the north, Gao Qiu just rushed to the city of Bianliang in Tokyo with his army, and sighed for not being able to fight the Jin army.

Zhao Huanjun and his ministers didn't know that Taiwei Gaoqiu was acting.However, the political and military struggles were complicated at this time, and the political influence of Gao Lian's stance was far greater than the contribution of his [-] new troops.

For this reason, Emperor Zhao Huan issued a decree to greatly praise the Taiwei Gao Qiu who was diligent in the king's affairs, and gave him many political honors.

It has to be said that Taiwei Gao Qiu's demonstration effect is still quite great, and many veteran officials of the Huizong Dynasty fell to the new emperor Zhao Huan.

Tong Guan and the other old stubborn people who nostalgic for the past were completely isolated.

Due to the lack of support from the subjects of the world, the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji had to return to Bianliang City in Tokyo from Zhenjiang.

However, when they walked outside Bianliang City in Tokyo, Tong Guan and others noticed something strange, and persuaded the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji not to enter the city, it is better to move to Luoyang Mansion in Xijing to spend his life.

The Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji hesitated, and the imperial driver stopped outside the city.

After Emperor Zhao Huan heard about this incident, how could he let the Supreme Emperor go to Luoyang to start anew.However, as a son, he can't use force in front of the world's subjects.

After thinking about it, Emperor Zhao Huan sent Li Gang to meet the Supreme Emperor Yujia.

Li Gang is a well-known Qingliu and Zhichen in the world, and the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji still believes what he said.

After learning from Li Gang that his son Zhao Huan took him back to Tokyo City just to show his filial piety and never dared to offend him in the slightest, Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji finally made up his mind to return to Tokyo Bianliang City.

It's a pity that Li Gang, who has an upright personality, was also deceived and used in this matter.

After the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji returned to Beijing, the Emperor Zhao Huan immediately adopted Geng Nanzhong's suggestion and deposed the Supreme Emperor's left and right ministers.

The Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji himself was also placed under house arrest in Longde Palace.

Didn't the Supreme Emperor love writing and painting the most in his life?Now I can concentrate on studying the art of calligraphy and painting without distractions.

The Emperor Zhao Huan's filial piety is really moving to prevent the Supreme Emperor from bothering about political affairs!

To bring back the Empress Dowager who fled south, it is time to deal with the so-called "six thieves" such as Cai Jing and Tong Guan who are beside the Empress Dowager.

When the Jin army besieged the city and the Supreme Emperor fled to the south, the capital was doing public opinion propaganda to clean up the important officials around the Supreme Emperor.

Tai student Chen Dong wrote: "Today's events, Cai Jing was in chaos before, Liang Shicheng conspired behind, Li Yan had grudges in the northwest, Zhu Xi had grudges in the southeast, Wang Fu and Tong Guan had grudges in Liao and Jin, and created the frontier. Provocation. It is appropriate to punish the six thieves and pass it on to the four directions to thank the world."

This means that the beatings I suffered from the Jin army in the Great Song Dynasty today were all caused by the six treacherous ministers Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Li Yan, Zhu Yan, Wang Fu, and Tong Guan, who were the most trusted confidants of the Supreme Emperor.

As long as these six treacherous ministers are killed, our Great Song Dynasty will naturally be clean and peaceful, and the world will be fine.

Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Li Yan, Zhu Qian, Wang Fu, and Tong Guan were the most trusted ministers around the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji, and to scold them was actually to scold the Supreme Emperor.

If Da Song was able to criticize the emperor, I'm afraid Chen Dong would include the Supreme Emperor and make them into seven thieves!

That's right, the person who had the audacity to accuse Sang and scold Huai of attacking the Supreme Emperor was that stinky and stubborn student Chen Dong.

Although Chen Dong wrote a letter scolding the Supreme Emperor and the party around him, which seemed rebellious, but this move was in line with the wishes of the princelings who were eager to take power!

This kind of stunned young man is needed to grab the class and seize power.The hot-blooded youth has used it well, but it is a sharp sword for stabbing political opponents!

Why was Chen Dong safe and sound after he gathered a crowd to make a scene at Donghua Gate?Isn't it because his attack on the so-called "six thieves" was in the political interests of Emperor Zhao Huan and the princelings, so he was secretly protected?

However, Chen Dong, a stunned young man, didn't understand this point, and thought that the royal family was magnanimous, and he could write random letters and say things.
