Lu Yijian looked at Wang Zeng and his voice trembled: "You also say that I am forming a clique for personal gain? If this is not proven, how can you speak from you? Xiaoxian, we have been with each other for decades, so what can we say in private?"

Seeing that Lu Yijian's eyes were wide open and he could not believe what he said, Wang Zeng remained unmoved: "Of course, we should say in the court that if we are ministers, how can we privately grant state affairs?"

"Of course, state affairs cannot be told privately, but if you have misunderstandings about me, you can always tell me, right? How can Lu bear it when I form a clique? Xiaoxian, without clear evidence, such words cannot be said!"

"There are gods who have come up with the head. Many things are done. Justice is in the hearts of the people. Why do you have to have evidence for everything? Fan Xiwen's friends are listed in the court. Is there any clear evidence for his friends?"

"The Censorate discovered the matter of Fan Xiwen. The Constitutional Office's list of affairs is nothing more than to prevent the problem from escalating. What does it have to do with me? Besides, Cai Qi agrees with you in everything. Could it be that he is also forming a clique with you?"

"My king has been in the court for more than 30 years. He believes that he is worthy of heaven and earth, serves the king and serves loyalty, treats his colleagues with courtesy, and always cares about the people of the world, and has a clear conscience. Cai Zisi has many similarities with what I have seen in the court. It is a common thing, but there is no reality of forming a party. However, if Tanfu thinks that he has formed a party with me, he will recognize that you have formed a large number of gangs in the court and control the government, so what if you ask you to say one thing? Tanfu, my king has been worthy of it, can you also say one thing about this?"

Lu Yijian couldn't believe his ears. Wang Zeng could say such words. This was a decisive intention to pull himself off from the position of prime minister! Seeing Wang Zeng looking at him with a serious expression and a clear look, Lu Yijian's heart couldn't help but slowly sink. The word "respectful" was, Wang Zeng could say, could he say, can Lu Yijian say? Even if Wang Zeng attacked him now, Lu Yijian still thought he could afford it, but if he wanted to say it, he was afraid that he would laugh at his future generations. Today, when he reached this stage, the position would definitely not be preserved. Why should he show off his verbal skills and let later generations underestimate him?

Wang Zeng couldn't stop Lu Yijian from making decisions on the government affairs. Can't he do it if he didn't become the prime minister together? Seeing Zhao Zhen above looking at him with wide eyes, Lu Yijian calmed down and said to Wang Zeng: "Xiaoxian was resentful to me in his heart. It's okay to say anything in private, but the government affairs should not be reduced to a dispute of will. You must have a clear proof of your intentions!"

"My king has been in and out for decades, and never told anyone that nothing can be said to others. If someone says to me like this, I don't need them to give any clear evidence. I should give up my throne and think about my mistakes behind closed doors! Those who are ministers should be cautious and fearful at the time, and should not show off their wisdom as villains, do their best to serve the country and the people. What do you think?"

What can Lu Yijian say? To be the prime minister together, he can control the government affairs and suppress Wang Zeng in everything, but when it comes to being self-disciplined, he is embarrassed to forcefully distinguish in front of Wang Zeng. Now it is meaningless to forcefully distinguish.

Seeing that Lu Yijian stopped talking and the situation was already extremely bad, Song Shou said in a voice: "How can everyone be satisfied with the government for the prime minister? Even if there is a temporary omission, why should you be satisfied with yourself? Wang Xianggong's words are too aggressive!"

Cai Qi sneered: "I have said that you are accomplicing Mr. Lu, and you are shameless in governing. Song Shou, you are really shameless!"

Song Shou turned around and looked at Cai Qi, his hair and beard were all open: "What did you say? Cai Qi, aren't you following Wang Xianggong? You have the face to say to me! Doing things is nothing more than the same thing, what do you think?"

"Hmph, my husband and I have the same views, and you are worthy of it?! Are you all blind people in the world?"

Song Shou had a gloomy personality. At this time, he was forced to be anxious by Cai Qi. He raised his head and even shot a fierce look.

Zhao Zhen, who was sitting on it, could no longer look down, stood up, swayed his sleeves, and went into the hall.

Looking at Zhao Zhen's back, Song Shou finally calmed down and remembered that it was in Chongzheng Hall, in front of the emperor. Turning around to see the people present, Lu Yijian was already full of fatigue, Zhang Dexiang was calm, while neutrals such as Du Yan, Chen Zhizhong and Han Yi were expressionless, and Zhang Shixun's face turned pale.

In the third year of Jingyou, in Bingzi, on the 16th day of the Jiazi period of the summer, the ministers quarreled in the Chongzheng Hall, and the conflicts were fierce. The emperor was rude. Prime Minister Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, the deputy governor Song Shou, and Cai Qi, all stopped overnight.

Two days later, in Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Zhen ordered the little yellow gate to serve tea, gave him a seat, and looked at Wang Zeng sitting below.

In just two days, Wang Zeng seemed much older, with gray hair and obviously deeper wrinkles on his face. Wang Zeng was born with a pretty face and a picturesque look. If the fortune teller in later generations saw him, he would definitely say that he had a female appearance and would definitely be a rich man. But in Zhao Zhen's eyes, he felt that he was very old. He couldn't help but remember that when he ascended the throne when he was young, Ding Wei was domineering and domineering. Everyone in and outside the court was silent. It was Wang Zeng who joined Feng Zheng to overthrow Ding Wei and stabilize the court. Later, in order to allow himself to take power smoothly, Wang Zeng had many restrictions on Empress Dowager Liu, which aroused dissatisfaction and was demoted from the court. When he left, Wang Zeng led Lu Yijian to the Political Affairs Hall to be the prime minister and helped him safely survive the empress dowager's life.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but miss the past. At that time, Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian supported each other and helped each other, and they really thought about themselves, the little emperor. Unexpectedly, in their later years, the two of them turned their eyes to this point today. Thinking of every bit of the past, Zhao Zhen couldn't help feeling sore and his eyes were a little wet.

Wang Zeng sat down, Zhao Zhen said: "My husband is under 60 years old and is so old. I am really unbearable. My husband has been working hard for the past few years and has done his best. I see it and remember it in my heart. Different national affairs and political views are common. My husband and Duke Shen have known each other for decades, so there is no need to hurt the harmony of this matter. When he leaves the capital, he will be healthy and will give up all the troublesome chores, and can shake hands with Gong Lu, so he does not have to break off his friendship for many years."

Wang Zeng held the scepter and said, "Your Majesty is kind-hearted, and I am the one who remembers the teachings."

"I don't know where my husband thought of being an official when he left Beijing? You see that your health is not as strong as before. If you are elected as a good place, you don't have to worry about it. Just take good care of yourself. Only when you are in good health will I feel at ease. Moreover, the national government will surely undergo a major change. I will rely on my husband in the future. I will return to Beijing today. I hope my husband will be as healthy as I did when I was young."

Wang Zeng said: "Your Majesty's love is unforgivable. Now that I am here, I will inevitably miss my hometown. I hope to choose the Xiaozhou army closer to Qingzhou to explain my hometown."

Zhao Zhen nodded: "I will remember it and it will not disappoint my husband's expectations. No matter where I go, I only have one word to him. I will temporarily put down the government affairs and take good care of my health. There are still many ways to rely on my husband in the future."

Wang Zeng held the scepter and thanked him for his kindness. At this time, the avoidance method was extremely strict and generally he was not allowed to be a prefect near his hometown. Zhao Zhen agreed to it as a special kindness, which showed his respect and trust in Wang Zeng.

After comforting Wang Zeng for a long time, Zhao Zhen said: "I am really helpless when my grandfather and Duke Shen leave the capital. The prime minister reported to the state's affairs and his position should not be slapped. My grandfather left the capital. I don't know who can be the prime minister? My grandfather taught me!"

"There is only Zhang Xiyan left in the Political Affairs Hall. At this time, the important officials who are not in the hope of the world cannot be in charge. After thinking about it, I must have been in Mengzhou Li Fugu. With this old man, even if there is a temporary turmoil in the state, it will be fine."

"I have recorded it. Li Zizheng is undoubtedly loyal. He has been familiar with the country's government for decades and has been familiar with the country's government. He is just a little rough, so someone must check for the missing. I wonder if my husband has a suitable candidate?"

The Political Affairs Hall is usually two prime ministers who restrain each other. It is common for them to be incompatible. If they are intimate, they will not be accepted by the emperor. Therefore, the more Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian are disagreeable, the more Zhao Zhen uses them. Until they can't cooperate, they will leave together. It is also a common practice for the prime minister to recommend successors after leaving office. Except for those who are really unable to tolerate the emperor, they will ask. Of course, it is necessary to ask whether it is necessary or not. It is not that the previous minister will definitely be appointed if they recommend each other. The two prime ministers check and balance each other, so they can only recommend one person in the Political Affairs Hall. Zhao Zhen asks Wang Zeng again now, and he will definitely not ask the candidate for the prime minister.

After thinking for a while, Wang Zeng held the scepter and said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember Mr. Zhang Wenjie? In recent years, he has to be the one who is in charge of the government affairs hall, but he deserves the word "virtuous prime minister".

Zhao Zhen nodded: "Zhang Xianggong has been an official for decades, without any trace of hair. He is as clean as water, so he naturally deserves a virtuous prime minister."

"In the fifth year of Tiansheng, Zhang Wenjie was the prime minister. When the imperial examinations in Chongzheng Hall were sung, auspicious light appeared in heaven. Wenjie Duke congratulated His Majesty on his help, and the country's government should have noble people to help. For nearly ten years, Wenjie Duke has been buried in the nine springs. Xu Ping, who had been singing the title, had also become a servant. From far to Yongzhou, Lingnan, he was an official, and the barbarians were the governor. He pinged the rebellion under the rule, built sugar and increased money and grain. When he rose up, he raised the troops of Yizhou to destroy the country of Jiaozhi. Xu Ping could be said to have responded to Wenjie Duke's words back then. The country's government was a lot of trouble, and it was just to implement the new policy of Jingxi Road, and the new policy of Jingxi Road was Xu Ping. Li Fugu was a little rough and Xu Ping thought carefully. It would be better to transfer him to the three departments of Jingxi Road, and the national government would definitely be without major mistakes."

Zhao Zhen said: "Xu Ping was young, and he was afraid that all officials would not accept it when he suddenly ascended to the high position."

"It is difficult to achieve both worlds, and Xu Ping, the three officials, must have such doubts. However, Xu Ping, who is known to me, has always been humble. As long as Li Fugu supports him in the Political Affairs Hall, there will be no big ups and downs. The new policy on Jingxi Road was made by Xu Ping, and it will definitely be inevitable that Xu Ping will be pushed to the whole country. Please think twice."
