Chapter 464 Gao Sheng
"Zhang finished his face."
Chengdu in early May had already shown the heat of summer. If it weren't for the specially installed hand-crank fan for air supply in Wei's house, he would be a little depressed sitting there. However, Wei Li, who was most afraid of heat on weekdays, forgot to wipe his sweat at this moment. He stared at Du Shiyi and looked again and again, and was sure that he had not deceived him at all, so he suddenly burst out with a burst of laughter.
"It's great now. No one in the court is eyeing me. We can free up our hands in Yizhou to let go.
"When Your Majesty asked Zhang Shuo to imprison, your uncle was impartial and selfless. He found out that Zhang Shuo accepted bribes and sold officials, and as for astrology, he said good things to him. Because of this, Your Majesty also praised Shangshu Wei as a selfless and role model for ministers." With such great news, Du Shiyi was sent to Chengdu day and night by Princess Yuzhen through Wang Yuanbao's business road, which was faster than the news on the official side, and therefore, there were more details that others would never know. Seeing Wei Li being surprised and happy, he smiled and said, "Congratulations to uncle for getting the holy relatives again.
"You forced me to write a letter back to Beijing quietly, saying that if there is any reason, I would let my uncle uphold justice, otherwise my uncle would have no good feelings for Zhang, so how could he say justice to him?" Wei Li sneered at Du Shiyi's congratulations, but he was confused in his heart, "But I don't understand. This is good for my uncle, but if he doesn't die, Zhang said he will take the opportunity to revive him. At that time, you hate you because you have caused such a stir in your letter. Wouldn't you be harmed? If Yuwen Rong and the others know..."
"Will your uncle let Yuwen Rong know?"
Seeing Wei Li, Du Shiyi was speechless, but he did not explain again.
Since Li Longji took office in Kaiyuan, the prime ministers who truly held great power have changed several positions. First, Liu You asked Zhang Shuo, then Yao Chong, Song Jing, Zhang Jiazhen, and Zhang Shuo. Every change was accompanied by the dismissal and demotion of officials, and promotion and reuse, but without exception, these prime ministers were decently stepped down. Li Longji borrowed this kind of perfect apology to stop and worship each other and maintain the emperor's control over the government and all officials. This time, there was no difference. If Yuwen Rong really pursued and fought hard, he would touch the emperor's taboos.
Moreover, he would never put his overall plan for the future on his so-called allies. A good-looking prime minister like Yuan Qianyao will support him because he does not seek to dominate the political affairs hall, but will instead have the public intention of recommending talents; a straight and upright minister like Song Jing will support him because he values the ability and character of officials more; and Yuwen Rong and Li Linfu support him because he can provide them with what they need, and one day he can't provide, or when there is a conflict with him, they will inevitably turn against each other faster than anyone else.
When Du Shiyi was appointed as the Wannianwei and presided over the Jingzhao Mansion Examination, Wei Li and Wang Han and Wang Wei helped him review the test papers together, and they had some contact with both of them. Then Wang Wei was suddenly demoted to the Sihu of Jeju to join the army, and he himself was promoted from the Beijing official position. Thinking that Wang Han was promoted step by step as a minister who Zhang Shuo valued, now that Zhang Shuo has fallen, Wei Li couldn't help but think of Wang Han.
"By the way, that Wang Liu..."
Speaking of this, Du Shiyi couldn't help but sigh: "After Zhang said that, Wang Ziyu had been running around for his rebellion and had already been the chief minister of Ruzhou."
"Ruzhou? Ruzhou is only one arrow away from Luoyang, and this is a very slight result." Wei Li was used to the ups and downs. Not to mention others, his uncle and father were like this, so he smiled freely and freely, "I think Wang Ziyu is very generous, but he may feel that he is happy or not."
"I hope so." Du Shiyi said this, but in his heart he thought that Princess Yuzhen faintly revealed that Wang Han had also gone to Gao Lishi's way. It seems that it must be Du Shisanniang or Cui Jianxuan who saw through his hidden words, otherwise Wang Han would never think of the eunuch. I really don't know whether he helped him or harmed him.
"Not mentioning this, the tea gates everywhere in Shu have gradually become a system, and the implementation of tea quotations is also effective. It is said that the Tea quotations have sold a total of 3,000 tea quotations and more than 1,000 tea quotations. Is this true?"
When Du Shiyi heard Wei Li suddenly change his words and ask this, he laughed: "You are well-informed guys. I also told them to keep a low profile. I didn't expect that the number was already out but it could be sold so much, but because the demand for Tubo, Xi tribe Khitan, and even the Turks has increased sharply, otherwise how could those tea merchants submit so easily?"
"But in addition to Shu tea, I heard that Jiangnan is gradually growing some tea growers. Shu tea wants to attract tea, will those tea merchants turn to Jiangnan?"
"So, we have to wait for the joint discussion in the court. Now that Zhang has finished speaking, he just hopes that the matter I asked will have a good result."
After Zhang's official news came to Chengdu, nearly ten days later than Du Shiyi and Wei Li to get the news. Even so, the shock of this matter was extraordinary in Yizhou and even the entire Shuzhong. At the end of last year, Zhang Shuo was accompanied by Fengshan as a Fengshan envoy, and even his confidant was promoted to the top of the list. It was clearly the most glorious time, but now he said he would fall down? For a time, among the governors of various states, some of whom had been following Zhang Shuo or had friendship with him were anxious and some were filled with righteous indignation, but more people who had nothing to do with him were different in private.
But the most fortunate person is Rhode. When he thought of the fact that he had been tying up the road with Fan Chengming, he was chilling. After a few days at home, he begged Li Tianyi to accompany him and donated 2,000 chunks to the Chengdu County Party Committee. As for what he didn't care at all, he just wanted Du Shiyi to forget everything before.
The members and merchants of the Bashu Tea Party were emotionally stable. As pure merchants, who was the prime minister at the level, had little to do with them. Instead, the hearsay about Du Shiyi and Fan Chengming's tit-for-tat past, combined with Zhang Shuo's fall, made them feel a lot more respectful of Du Shiyi, who is now judging tea officials. As for those who secretly sell private tea, of course, they would not stop because of such a small matter, but they could not help but be more cautious.
