Wang Mian had almost no achievements in the Western Prefecture and secretly made some small moves. Song Jiu did not want him to destroy the unity of the Western Prefecture, so he said that Wang Mian was good at military affairs, but was good at official affairs, so he was transferred to the Eastern Prefecture.

Wang Mian believed it, but in fact he was very entitled to power.

Li Fang was there, and Wang Mian was very honest. He was an old man from two countries and three dynasties. No matter how he was doing nothing, he would not dare to make small moves. After Zhao Pu came up, he was even more honest.

If Zhao Pu goes down, would I be honest with Lu Mengzheng? It just so happened that Lu Mengzheng was very serious and was careless, which gave Wang Mian a chance. So he started to take over the Zhongshu. In addition, he was quick and quick, and he could observe his face and flatter Zhao Kuangyi so comfortably. Therefore, he gradually took over the power from Lu Mengzheng's hands.

But he made a fatal flaw, that is, he did not have integrity in life.

At the beginning of the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was a suspicious country since the time of Zhao Da. Because it was taboo to have too much power in the prime ministers, it was very disliked by ministers who met their subordinates at home. The prime minister became even more harsh. Of course, it was not impossible, but everyone was paying attention.

Therefore, there are few officials at home, including Song Jiu, especially when he and Zhao Pu gathered at Changqing Tower, which attracted thousands of people. Therefore, all officials went to the Secretariat or the Xifu to find the prime minister when they were on duty. This depends on whether it was Song Jiu, Zhao Pu and Lu Duosun, they would not be allowed to meet with them unless they were official. But if Song Yisong, he would often meet hundreds of officials in a day, and 90% of them were private requests.

In fact, Li Fang, they also have selective receptions. Otherwise, they will receive hundreds of officials a day, not to mention watching beautiful girls sing and dancing, nor to deal with official documents. Even these hundred officials talk one by one. They will be busy from morning to night.

However, Wang Mian began to let go, making Zhongshu like a reception room every day.

Lu Mengzheng frowned, thinking that this kid likes to meet guests, so let him go, and then hid aside and silently reviewed the official documents.

It’s not wrong to like lively. Wang Mian likes to show off his favors. No matter whether he can do it or not, he will agree to everything if anyone asks for it. In fact, the East Mansion cannot be in charge of all matters, and many major matters must be handed over to Zhao Kuangyi for the final decision. Besides, there is also Lu Mengzheng on him.

Therefore, Wang Mian received the benefit fee and made a sweet promise to others. However, he broke his promise one after another. One or two promises were not a big problem, can everyone understand it? However, most of the promises were broken, what would these officials think? So more and more people hated him.

Zhao Kuangyi vaguely heard something that he was not disappointed with Wang Mian, but a little disappointed with Lu Mengzheng.

Wang Mian was a deputy general of the magistrate, just like the deputy envoy of the Western Prefecture. He was a supervisor, assister, and inspector, but he was not a decision maker and could be replaced at any time.

Since Song Jiu took a comet astronomy class, and disasters have been repeated year by year, he has become indifferent to natural disasters. He has also faded his enthusiasm for building temples. It is not your fault for natural disasters, but as the prime minister, you have to manage the East Mansion well. At that time, Zhao Pu and Song Jiu recommended, and Zhao Kuangyi was also full of expectations for Lu Mengzheng, but now.

Governing the country is like governing the family. In recent years, whether it is Zhao Pu, Lu Duoxun, Song Jiu, Song Qi and Li Fang, at least there will be no situation in the east and west governments. The ministry cannot control it, let alone the government affairs of all sizes in the world?

But Zhao Kuangyi didn't blame Song Jiu and Zhao Pu, but he was himself. Who could he find to take over as prime minister? Song Jiu could rest assured, but he really couldn't leave the Western Prefecture for the time being. Except for Song Jiu, who would he look for?

Therefore, I want to examine more talents.

So he called Song Jiu and asked, "Who can take over Kou Zhun?"

Song Jiu was a little confused and looked at Zhao Kuangyi.

Zhao Kuangyi said: "This year, the locust plague is severe, I'm afraid..."

After he finished speaking, both the king and the ministers smiled bitterly. The Liao Kingdom had not been moving in the past two years. One reason was that Li Jilong would suffer, and the other was that they would also have to rest and rest. But this precious time has caused disasters. There was another major locust plague in spring, and it seemed that they would have to continue to "rest and rest and rest" this year. However, Song Jiu finally understood Zhao Kuangyi's meaning, and he was eager to use the little bandit.

However, this candidate made Song Jiu feel embarrassed. Not only was the governor of Cangzhou, but even the candidates for the future plan were easy to find. But not only that, this was the candidate who planned to train the Privy Councilor for the court in the future.

Song Jiu hesitated and said, "How about Lu Duan?"

It has been hidden for many years. Although he was once Zhao Tingmei's person, Zhao Tingmei has also been dead for many years and is easy to use.

"No, I am also planning to reuse this person."

"Your Majesty is planning for the future?"

Zhao Kuangyi's head.

"This is a bit difficult. You can see what you can see. Your Majesty will use it one by one. If you can't see it for the time being, you can't see it either."

"So I discuss with you."

"I have a candidate, how about Bi Shi'an?"

Zhao Kuangyi shook his head.

This person is very famous, but he served as the royal family of Zhao Yuanxi for a long time and joined the army. Although he is now promoted to Hanlin Bachelor, there are many twists and turns in the middle. Song Jiu sighed in his heart, thinking that Lu Mengzheng is likely to be miserable. Although Zhao Kuangyi was cultivating Zhao Yuanxi, he was still guarded against his son. Lu Mengzheng didn't know that he was so close to Zhao Yuanxi...

However, Song Jiu didn't know how to persuade Lu Mengzheng. Could it be that he would not be able to do even if he had the imperial power!

Song Jiu meditated in his heart, and after a while he said, "How about Song Xi?"

This person was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Taiping Xingguo, which was like Xiao Kou and others. He had not been an official for a long time, but he was very famous. His father Wen Wen and his uncle Wen Shu and his uncle Zhou Jinshi. His father died early, but Song Shi and his brother Song Mi were inspiring to study hard and serve his mother filial. His uncle Wen Shu once stroked his back and said that this child is a real national weapon, and he hated that my brother was not as good as he met.

But the one who made him famous the most is Yang Huizhi. Zhao Kuangyi promoted the prodigy Yang Yi. Yang Zhengzhi disagreed, but he admired his nephew Song Shi very much, believing that Song Shi is the national weapon. He is now serving as the Ministry of Justice.

That is, he is famous, but his true talent may not have been shown yet, so he does not need to be reused for the time being.

Zhao Kuangyi thought for a while and said, "It's him."

It is better to be reused in the future, but not reused. I believe it doesn’t matter if you know a problem in Cangzhou.

So the two governments began to make major mobilizations.

First, Zhang Hong was dismissed, and this person was relatively poor. In addition, there was a strong Song Jiu in the Western Prefecture and a capable Zhang Qixian. Therefore, it completely disappeared, and Wang Xian could still help occasionally, but Zhang Hong had nothing to do except see the clerk bowing.

In fact, Zhang Hong was actually lucky when he heard the edict saying that he would be dismissed as the Minister of Personnel. It was not that he didn't want to do things, but he didn't know how to do things. It would be fine, so that he wouldn't be embarrassed to stay in the Xifu. Especially outsiders were talking about it, saying that the Xifu during the Chunhua period was the strongest Xifu since the founding of the Song Dynasty. However, when he mentioned this strongest Xifu, he was cowardly and incompetent and was criticized. Is it uncomfortable?

There was another person who disappeared, Xin Zhongfu, who was somewhat similar to Huang Ba, the best local official in the Western Han Dynasty. He had great achievements in the local area. No one could match him, but when he arrived at the priest, he had no choice.

When Song Jiu praised him for his local political achievements, he also agreed with him. After the facts reached the Secretariat, even Zhao Pu could not stand it.

He was also dismissed during this change.

However, unlike Zhang Hong, when he heard that the nine generals of Song Dynasty, Xin Zhongfu was praised as Huang Ba Empress. Zhao Kuangyi was ridiculous and dismissed. Therefore, although he was dismissed from his position as deputy prime minister, he recorded his outstanding political achievements in the local area, especially in Bashu, and several sons were recruited.

Then he made an appointment, allowing Zhang Qixian and Chen Shu to serve as the chief political affairs, Zhang Xun, Wen Zhongshu, and Kou Zhun to serve as deputy envoys of the Privy Council.

Zhang Xun had been working in Xifu for a long time. Although he was a little less capable, he was like Wang Xian. There were not many things, and Song Jiu liked them if he didn't have much trouble.

He didn't know much about Wen Zhongshu and Song Jiu. He was recommended by Lu Mengzheng. Song Jiu also heard a story. When Wen Zhongshu was appointed as the governor of Fenzhou, he had an affair with the maid of the military supervisor's family. The military supervisor was dissatisfied with the appeal and was demoted to the commoner. Wen Zhongshu was poor and had to come to the capital. In order to be appointed by the court again, he experienced the warmth of the world in that year. Fortunately, his good friend Lu Mengzheng came to the Secretariat and appointed Wen Zhongshu again. This doesn't matter, it's time for people to make mistakes.

Moreover, Wen Zhongshu issued an order. Before he went to the Western Prefecture, Lu Mengzheng recommended to Song Jiu again, that I, a man, are a talented person, and I hope that Song Gong will give me more support.

Whether Song Jiu has not been cited or not, is he a talent? He has to observe before he can determine whether he has talents. After all, there are some differences between the talents in Xifu and Dongfu. These Jinshi have never been in the frontier. Do they understand military affairs? Or Fenzhou, is that the Hedong front line?

But he had eager hope for the little Kou Songjiu.

However, as soon as Xiao Kou arrived in Xifu, his problem immediately broke out and began to take on a lot of things. Song Jiu was ridiculous and said, "Ping Zhong, don't learn from Wang Mian, it makes people laugh."

"Mr. Song, I was wrong."

"I did nothing wrong. Dare to take responsibility is a symbol of reputation. I used to be a deputy minister to serve as a minister in the Secretariat and handled many matters decisively. But my intentions must be pure."

"Mr. Song, I understand. Don't worry, I'm not ashamed to learn from Wang Mian."

Then Kou Zhun took on more and more.

Song Jiu was even more ridiculous and thought about it, but he would forget it. The spring locust plague finally slowed down. Once the plan was implemented, Xifu must have a capable candidate so that he could go on. So instead cooperated with Kou Zhun and then carefully taught him where he did it right and where he did it wrong.

The Western Palace is safe and sound. After all, anyone has to give Song Jiu a face, even if it is Wen Zhongshu who can do whatever it takes to the superiors.

But things happened in the East Mansion.

First of all, Chen Shu, most of these famous ministers dare to take responsibility. If they dare to take responsibility, they must be careful about power. If they do things, how can they do good things without the rights? It’s just that Zhao Puludoson, Kou Zhun and Lu Yijian not only grasp power, but also stubborn, bullying the superiors and inferiors, and arrogant. People like Song Jiu Wang Dan and Lu Mengzheng must be more peaceful in character and can tolerate subordinates. Chen Shu is also such a person who is doing things, so he is strict in power and has a strict obedience. Because of his talent, he is recommended by Song Jiu as a salt and iron envoy.

Last year, Wang Mian had a handover with Chen Shu because of government affairs, so Chen Shu didn't look down on Wang Mian, so he didn't listen to Wang Mian's orders, and the two had a conflict.

Chen Shu was a little better, especially Zhang Qixian, who was valued by both Song Jiu and Zhao Pu, and had the extraordinary achievements of the Daizhou victory. He came to the East Mansion with almost a halo.

But Wang Mian was very sad. When Song Jiu was in the Western Prefecture, he valued Zhang Qixian, which made Wang Mian very unhappy. Later, he made some small moves in Song Jiu, and he was memorizing Song Jiu's small moves and did not dare to come to him in person, but he had a head-on conflict with Zhang Qixian.

When these two men moved to the East Mansion, Wang Mian's expression was imagined. I made it all for the sake of getting up, but what I wanted was not to bring two enemies to the East Mansion.
