After Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen discussed the reform of the official system, they went to Xiaowan next to the imperial garden, and took Kou Tianci out of the palace in the spirit of Princess Baoqing's reluctance.
Out of the palace gate.
The father and son were sitting on the carriage.
Kou Tianci suddenly said, "Father, when I enter the palace in the future, can I ignore the eunuchs and maids."
Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, "Are they bullying you?"
Kou Tianci frowned and said, "They always have to taste the things I bring into the palace. The sugar people I brought into the palace are covered with their saliva. Every time I go to see Baoqing, I have to think about it. Do your best to clean their saliva before you dare to give it to Baoqing."
Kou Ji stared at Kou Tianci strangely, "Do you love Baoqing?"
Kou Tianci said in disgust: "I'm just afraid of trouble... Also, a few of them licked at a sugar man. It was very disgusting."
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, and said: "This is what the palace is like, unless you don't bring Baoqing food. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape their mouths, this is the rule."
Kou Tianci said with a stern face: "I hate this rule."
Koj hahaha laughed.
After laughing, Kou Ji said to Kou Tianci: "Why are you so good to Baoqing?"
Kou Tianci scratched his head and said frankly: "Mother said, I am Baoqing's cohort, and I will take care of Baoqing for the rest of my life."
Kou Ji nodded slightly and said, "It's also... Whose idea was it to paint on Zhang Zhibai's face?"
"I… "
Kou Tianci replied subconsciously, and after the answer, he opened his eyes in astonishment.
He hurriedly looked at Kou Ji, saw Kou Ji's gloomy face, and stretched out his hand to him.
"Father... I was wrong..."
"Papa Papa..."
Kou Ji grabbed Kou Tianci and punched him in the ass.
Kou Tianci was beaten and barked.
When he returned to the mansion, Kou Tianci's butt was beaten and swollen.
Kou Tianci ran to file a complaint with Xiang Yan, but was dragged and spanked by Xiang Yan.
Kou Tianci and Liu Boxu painted things on Zhang Zhibai's face. It was indeed too much. They should educate them to increase their memory.
…
After Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen decided to change the official system, Zhao Zhen discussed the matter with the three of Lu Yijian.
After some discussions, it was finally decided to start with Taoist officials and Tianxia Temples first.
The purpose is to clear out the Taoist officials in the world, and find out those fertile fields occupied by the temples.
The three of Lu Yijian were responsible for playing this matter in the court.
Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji were responsible for the hands-on.
After discussing it properly.
Early morning.
Zhang Zhibai went to work and said: "Officials, since I set up a Taoist official, all Taoist officials have used their identities to make a profit. Some have invaded and occupied private land, some have printed money, and some have reselled the population.
What's more, it uses temples to cover up to build a prostitute hall.
When the first emperor was in the dynasty, he punished the Taoist officials in the world.
The same was true when Kou was in charge.
But the Taoist officials were not completely deposed because of this, and there are still residues.
Therefore, the minister urged the officials to completely dismiss the Taoist officials, and to check all the temples in the world with the local government.
Anyone who commits crimes in crimes is imprisoned.
The property under investigation should be distributed to the poor local people.
The money investigated and handled should be put into the national treasury for the imperial court to promote education.
At the same time, the director of monk records strictly inspected the temples in the world.
The imperial court can issue condolences to practitioners who have not committed crimes.
The wild monk's demon way of endless rebirth should be arrested by all means. "
As soon as Zhang Zhibai said this, the government and the public were shocked.
Some people think that Zhang Zhibai is dying.
If this statement were to be spread out, Zhang Zhibai would not be hated by practitioners in the world.
Among those people, there are those who have a good heart, and there are also evil people who like to use the sword.
After Kou Ji exposed the erysipelas incident before, he killed some people and was assassinated.
Zhang Zhibai is now trying to seize money and money, and control the qualifications of other people to become a monk. People still have to fight with him.
Although the civil and military ministers felt that Zhang Zhibai was dying, no one spoke to refute the matter.
Because of the interests of the monks, it has nothing to do with the ministers of civil and military affairs.
They didn't care at all how the court handled the monks.
So Zhang Zhibai came out of the class to play the matter afterwards.
None of the ministers of civil and military affairs said anything, just staring at Zhao Zhen together, waiting for Zhao Zhen's reply.
Zhao Zhen said with a groan: "The temples in the world are really so unbearable?"
Zhang Zhibai bowed and said, "If you don't believe it, you can send someone to investigate."
Zhao Zhen thought about it and said: "Anyway, it won't take much effort, so let the criminal officials at all levels investigate the matter. If it is like Aiqing said, then naturally it should be cleared up.
If there is no such thing, it should be an admonishment for them. "
"Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry?"
Zhao Zhen shouted.
The Penalty Department Shangshu came out of class slowly.
"The minister is here!"
Zhao Zhen instructed: "After you go down, you will issue this matter to the criminal officials at all levels and let them all set out to investigate."
Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry respectfully agreed.
After the Criminal Department Shangshu agreed, Zhao Zhen stopped mentioning this matter.
He seemed to have dealt with a trivial political matter.
None of the civil and military ministers deliberately brought up this matter.
After going down.
As usual, the ministers of civil and military affairs left the Chui Gong Hall in twos and threes.
It's just that they all gave Zhang Zhibai a complicated look before they left the Hanging Arch Hall.
Zhang Zhibai's face was indifferent, as if he hadn't seen their eyes.
Kou Ji kept guarding at the door of the Chuigong Hall, and when Zhang Zhibai came out, he greeted him.
"Duke Zhang, I will send a team to guard your thoroughness when I turn around."
Kou Ji walked to Zhang Zhibai and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Zhibai smiled and said, "No, some young people don't dare to hurt the old man."
Kou Ji solemnly said: "That's no Xiaoxiao. Many of them think they are outsiders, so they don't care about Wang Fa. If you really go crazy, you won't care about your identity."
"Kou Ji made sense. Those people went crazy and no one would admit it."
Wang Zeng walked out the door of the hanging arch hall and said solemnly.
Lu Yijian walked out and said: "The left and right are just some guards. It is only good for you, there is no harm, you can let them follow. If you make any mistakes, the court's face will be lost."
Zhang Zhibai finally agreed to Kou Ji's proposal under the advice of Kou Ji's trio.
Kou Ji left the Chuigong Temple and immediately went to the Privy Council. Through the Privy Council, he mobilized a group of military experts and rushed to Zhang Mansion to protect Zhang Zhibai.
Never mind that Zhang Zhibai just said a few words lightly in the court today.
The hidden risks are very large.
Among the monks, there are countless wise men, and countless lunatics who dare to do anything when their heads are hot.
Zhang Zhibai's simple words offended a large group of lunatics.
After Kou Ji mobilized the best players in the army, he went out of the Privy Council and saw the people on the streets of Bianjing, discussing what Zhang Zhibai was saying and doing in the Suigong Hall today.
Some devout believers have already expressed their disgust towards Zhang Zhibai in their words.
Kou Jier listened to the people talking on the street and returned to the Kou Mansion Courtyard.
Once in the door.
I saw Kou Zhun standing in the front yard.
When Kou Zhun saw Kou Ji, he stared and shouted, "You are so brave?!"
Kou Ji first saluted Kou Zhun and said with a smile: "Why did my grandfather say this?"
"Do you dare to move monks?"
Kou Zhun glared at each other.
Kou Ji smiled and said, "Grandfather turned toward the monk? I remember when my grandfather was in charge, he often suppressed the world's officials."
Kou Zhun said angrily: "Suppression goes back to suppression. As long as they don't drive them to a dead end, they will not dare to oppose the court. You are now pushing people to a dead end.
There are many lunatics among them.
Once crazy, everything will be done.
Zhang Zhibai, too, accompany you to fool around.
Does he want to be completely clean
Life is gone? "
The smile on Kou Ji's face narrowed slightly and said: "If they really dare to make a fuss about Zhang's life, then I dare to directly use soldiers and horses to wash them with blood."
Kou Zhun stared and said: "Sanwu and Yizong also did this, so they didn't end well."
Kou Ji said calmly: "They are them, I am me."
Kou Zhun shouted: "The four of them are all emperors. They can't remove the malignant tumors in the monks. Why can you do it?"
Kou Ji bluntly said: "Just by learning... They'd better obey the court's will, don't provoke me, or I will dig their foundation together."
Kou Zhun was taken aback, frowned and said, "Do you want to shake their foundation by learning?"
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
Kou Zhun didn't know how Kou Ji influenced the foundation of the monks through his enlightenment.
But Kou Zhun believes Kou Ji can do it.
If Kou Ji couldn't do it, he would never say so confidently.
Kou Zhun said in a deep voice: "You are not allowed to mess around! Mengxue has just started, and it is now in its infancy. You give your family to your family and don't involve it.
Otherwise, it is very likely that the school will be hit hard. "
Although the enlightenment was not promoted by Kou Zhun, Kou Zhun attached great importance to enlightenment.
In Kou Zhun's eyes, Mengxue is the foundation for the later Song Dynasty to become stronger and stronger.
If Kou Ji pulls out the use of Mongolian learning before it has matured, he will absolutely not allow it.
Kou Ji said frankly: "Education is really not suitable to be involved in it now, so I will not use it for the time being. But if the monks make trouble too much, I will use it to dig their foundation sooner or later."
Kou Zhun said in a deep voice, "Since I don't plan to use Mengxue now, the monks are making trouble, what can you stop?"
Kou Ji confessed: "If it affects the promotion of the court decree, then I can only send them to die. If it does not affect the promotion of the court decree, then let them make trouble.
As long as the imperial court promotes the decree that restrains them, their words and deeds will be under the control of the imperial court.
At that time, even if they have the ability to pass the sky, they will have to listen to the imperial court in a proper manner. "
Kou Zhun asked, "How sure are you?"
Kou Ji asked in return: "The officials and I have abolished all the Xiangjun in the Song Dynasty and subdivided them into each prefecture and county. How confident do you think I am?"
Kou Zhun was taken aback for a moment, and said in surprise: "As early as when you reformed the military system, you already started to deploy?"
Kou Ji nodded slowly, "Yes..."
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji up and down, then snorted: "You are really scheming."
Kou Ji couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't be it!"
Kou Zhun coldly snorted: "Even so, the old man still thinks that you are playing with fire. Although the old man has never experienced Zhou Shizong's extermination of the Buddha, he has also listened to your great-grandfather.
At that time, the monks made trouble for this.
Zhou Shizong sent troops and horses to suppress countless times before suppressing the monks.
But within a few years, they revived.
And the development is very rapid.
Now it has become a malignant tumor of Song Dynasty. "
Kou Ji faintly said: "It's not that Emperor Taizong was too fond of them, not only designated Daxiangguo Temple as a national temple, but also built temples in the world."
"Don't criticize Emperor Taizong!"
Kou Zhun had been a courtier of Zhao Guangyi, so even if he knew that Zhao Guangyi had done some stupid things, he couldn't make it clear, let alone allow Kou Ji to speak ill of Zhao Guangyi in front of him.
Kou Ji pursed his mouth and didn't speak any more.
Kou Zhun glared at Kou Ji, and said, "The old man will always sit in the mansion, restraining the people in the mansion from going out. You can add some guards to the mansion and don't let those people come here."
"Got it… "
Kou Zhun took the matter so seriously, Kou Ji naturally did not dare to be vague.
Some old ministries living in Ruian Town were immediately recalled, and the guards at the mansion were strengthened.
No words for a night.
The next day.
As soon as Kou Ji opened his eyes, he saw Kou Zhun appear in front of his bed.
Before Kou Ji could speak, Kou Zhun said with a gloomy face: "Something happened!"
Kou Ji was taken aback, got up quickly, put on his clothes, and asked, "What happened?"
Kou Zhun said in a deep voice: "Zhang Zhibai's concubine has an affair with someone and was discovered."
Kou Ji stared in amazement.
"impossible!"
Kou Zhun said coldly: "Nothing is impossible."
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Grandfather, you should know that Zhang Zhibai's family style is simple and honest, and it is impossible for this to happen."
Kou Zhun coldly snorted: "But it has already happened."
Kou Ji hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on?"
Kou Zhun said with a sullen face: "Last night, someone found Zhang Zhibai's concubine room in the Guzi Temple in the city of Bianjing, and found out that Zhang Zhibai's concubine's room was fornicating with others. After the incident, Zhang Zhibai's concubine room was hanged and died in the Guzi Temple.
Nowadays, it is rumored in the city of Bianjing that Zhang Zhibai's story about hidden prostitutes in the temples in the court hall is his concubine room. "
Kou Ji's brows twisted into a word "Chuan" in an instant, "Isn't that talking about fornication? Why did you get involved with prostitutes again?"
Kou Zhun said in a deep voice: "Rumors say that Zhang Zhibai is poor and unable to support the young and old in the mansion, and the concubine room in the mansion is forced to go out and have fornication with others, in order to plan some money to supplement the family.
Kou Ji was immediately annoyed, "It's nonsense!"
Kou Zhun said coldly: "Smart people know that this is nonsense. But the more nonsense it is, the more fierce it is."
Kou Ji got out of bed after getting dressed and said, "I'll go to Zhang's Mansion to have a look."
Kou Zhun did not stop, but just reminded: "It is time to go and see. If Zhang Zhibai is devastated because of this, the official will lose a good minister."
Kou Ji walked out and said: "I just rushed to Zhang Mansion for this."
Kou Ji got out of the bedroom, and while walking outside the house, he tidied his hair, inserted a hairpin, and tied up his hair before arriving outside the house.
The horseman in the house had already prepared the carriage.
After Kou Ji got in the carriage, he went straight to Zhang Zhibai's mansion.
When I arrived at the entrance of Zhang Zhibai's mansion, I saw some people with hidden heads and tails looking around in front of Zhang's mansion.
Probably some people who receive news and good deeds.
Before arriving at the door of Zhang Zhibai's mansion, Kou Ji opened the carriage curtain and drank to those who were hiding in the dark.
"roll!"
The people hiding in the dark, seeing Kou Ji's face, were startled one by one, and fled the door of Zhang Mansion one after another.
Kou Ji arrived at the gate of Zhang's Mansion and got out of the carriage.
Send the groom to knock on the door.
After passing the notification, the concierge of Zhang Mansion led Kou Ji to the main hall of Zhang Mansion.
Not long after Kou Ji sat in the main hall, Zhang Zhibai appeared in the main hall.
Zhang Zhibai didn't have too much negative expression on his face. It seemed that the woman who had an affair with someone last night was not his concubine.
After Zhang Zhibai sat down, Kou Ji saluted Zhang Zhibai, and then asked: "Duke Zhang, what is going on?"
Zhang Zhibai sighed and said, "Planning and blaming!"
Kou Ji asked, "Then how did the female relatives in your mansion leave the mansion?"
Zhang Zhibai sighed and said: "This matter is my fault! I can't afford the Ji concubines given to me by the official family, so I use them as maids. They are my concubines, but they are just a maid in the house.
I can't always stare at the maid in the house, right? "
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
He knows a little bit about Zhang's mansion.
Knowing that Zhang Zhibai was a clean and honest official and could not afford to raise so many concubines, he used the concubines given by the palace as a maid, and sometimes gave some to his colleagues.
Giving maids and concubines to each other was nothing new in the Song Dynasty.
The maids and concubines have little status in the rich and powerful houses.
Zhang Zhibai, who is involved in political affairs, naturally can't care about a maid.
"Hey... That girl Chun'er ran into a handsome young man outside the house. At first sight, she was deceived by that handsome young man out of the house.
After one night, she became a corpse.
The old man has become a useless person who depends on his concubine to support his family. "
At this point, Zhang Zhibai finally had a trace of anger on his face.
Kou Ji asked in a deep voice, "Has that handsome young man caught?"
Zhang Zhibai nodded and said solemnly: "I caught it and interrogated him. He claimed that someone had given him money and asked him to trick Chun'er out of the mansion and go to Guzi Temple."
"Has the person who gave him the money caught it?"
"When the servants of the house found him, he had become a corpse."
"..."
Kou Ji said coldly: "You just played in the court to oust the Taoist officials of the world, and this thing happened. They did it really quickly.
It's just that they shouldn't make a fuss about your reputation. "
Zhang Zhibai took a deep breath and said, "The old man has a hunch, this is just the beginning."
Kou Ji coldly snorted: "Then we will watch them quietly to see what they can make. When they have enough trouble, it's time for us to clean them up."
Zhang Zhibai slowly nodded and said, "Don't keep your hands when the time comes, or the old man's stigma will be for nothing."
"I won't keep my hands."
Kou Ji said sternly.
He hurried to Zhang's Mansion because he was afraid that Zhang Zhibai would be devastated because of his reputation.
Seeing Zhang Zhibai as calm as ever, he was relieved a lot.
Those people made a fuss about Zhang Zhibai's reputation, and they really got stuck in Zhang Zhibai's pain.
But they shrugged Zhang Zhibai.
Zhang Zhibai is not one of those corrupt scholars. He cares about fame, but he will never fight his life for fame, and he will not lose his reputation because of fame.
After Kou Ji arrived at Zhang Mansion, he never left.
He was with Zhang Zhibai at Zhang's Mansion, intending to see what other demon would be made by those people.
Kou Ji stayed at Zhang Mansion all night.
The next day.
On the top of the main hall of Zhang Mansion, there is an extra layer of golden sand.
There is one more among the people, Zhang Zhibai has the appearance of the emperor, and Zhang Mansion is the place where the emperor lives, so it is rumored that the golden sands will be descended from the sky.
…
The third day.
The heads of the corner of Zhang's house are gone, replaced by a few glazed heads.
Two specious horns were added to Zhang's house dog's head.
The one that can be dropped as soon as you take it out.
…
The fourth day.
Nothing happened at Zhang Mansion.
However, something happened at the Shangshu Mansion of the Xingbu Shangshu, and the eighty-year-old mother of the Shangshu Xingbu suddenly fainted.
After waking up, he clamored to let the Criminal Department Shang Shudon participate in the matter of paying his family.
Otherwise, she would be hanged before the Ministry of Justice wrote.
Xingbu Shangshu was forced to report sick leave to the court.
…
The fifth day.
The Xingbu left and right servants, together on leave.
…
The sixth day.
Several members of the Department of Criminal Affairs under the Ministry of Justice took leave.
…
Seven days later.
Officials from all over the penal department, large and small, took leave.
The servants of Zhang's mansion who went out to buy were brought to life lawsuits.
Zhang Zhibai has been hiding in the house without going out, and there are heavy guards outside the house, so he didn't get into any major trouble.
Zhang Fuzhong.
Kou Ji and Zhang Zhibai sat side by side, Kou Ji smiled coldly and said: "I thought they had something to do, it turned out that it was just a little trick. They really thought that all the officials of the Criminal Ministry took leave, and you got into endless trouble. Do people clean them up again?"
Zhang Zhibai stared at Kou Ji and said faintly: "So, are you ready to shoot?"
Kou Ji sneered: "The official first ordered the Criminal Ministry to do this to confuse the public. If the official really wanted the Criminal Ministry to do this, they would have secretly distributed the documents to all parties before you asked the criminals The local government is gone.
But now, no one at the local yamen has received the secret decree to check the temples in the world and collect all the official seals of the Taoist officials in the world. "
Zhang Zhibai was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about it for a while, he said, "If you didn't pass the Criminal Ministry, and wanted to check all the temples in the world, and confiscated the official seals of all the Taoists in the world, it would only be the Ministry of War.
Only the Ministry of Defense at all levels and local yamen have enough manpower to do this. "
Kou Ji snorted: "Under the thunder sweep, how many demons can hide? Give them time and make them make noise, just to see how capable they are.
Unexpectedly, there are only such small means. "
Zhang Zhibai pondered for a moment and said: "As soon as he comes up, he will directly use soldiers and horses, which may cause huge conflicts. Some monks may confuse the local people and oppose the court."
Kou Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "The officials and I are ready for bloody suppression."
Zhang Zhibai frowned and said, "Those people are also deceived. You and the officials should not hurt their lives."
Kou Ji said frankly: "It's not enough to hurt your life, but a small punishment and a big punishment are still necessary."
"Hey!"
Zhang Zhibai sighed and said nothing more.
Although he mentioned this matter, it was not under his control from beginning to end.
From beginning to end, all the decision-making power lies in the hands of Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen.
