Chapter 734 Havoc in the Golden Palace
When Qin Lang walked out of the Ganlu Hall, his steps were very cheerful, and he almost wanted to jump a few steps at the entrance of the hall.
Looking at the way this guy obviously succeeded in his plot, Li Shimin gritted his teeth involuntarily, "What a difficult guy!"
Gao Quan, who came in to serve, responded softly, "Wei Gong has served as prime minister for three years at a young age, yet he can still be so indifferent, and he has no attachment to the high position of prime minister. Such indifference is really admirable."
Li Shimin glanced at the eunuch, "What is your name?"
"Slave and servant who supervises the high power, deserves death." Gao Quan quickly knelt down and slapped himself twice, very clear and loud.
Li Shimin looked at his frightened look, "Isn't it high power? Your comments are pretty good, but you may not be right about this guy. I don't think he is indifferent to power, but... Come on, get up."
The emperor's gaze swept Gao Quan from top to bottom, Gao Quan's whole body seemed to be scraped by a knife, and all the pores stood up.
"Go to Yushitai to summon Han Zhongliang and Cui Renshi."
······
Golden Palace Early Dynasty.
"Han Zhongliang, the official censor, please play!"
Li Shimin glanced at him, and then looked at Qin Lang, who was among the prime ministers in front of the officials, who was sitting there and seemed to be dozing off.
"Quasi-play!"
"Yushitai impeached Prime Minister Qin Lang for forming a party, embezzlement and other seventeen major crimes..."
As soon as Han Zhongliang's words came out, the morning court had already come to an end, and many people were already waiting for the officials to leave the court, and they were all shocked.
Many officials who were still dozing off immediately disappeared.
Some people even thought about it, this Han Zhongliang was a doctor of imperial history, but he failed to worship the prime minister and entered the political affairs hall, but came to impeach the prime minister Qin Lang. Is this trying to squeeze out a prime minister and empty a prime minister for himself?
Others secretly thought that Han Zhongliang and Li Jing are fellow villagers from Sanyuan, and have a close relationship with Zhao Guogong's eldest grandson Wuji, and Qin Lang has always been close to his eldest grandson Wuji. This is a well-known fact, so Han Zhongliang should be close to Qin Lang , why did you impeach Qin Lang?
Han Zhongliang held up the wat board and loudly impeached Qin Lang for one crime after another.
The censor in the hall interrupted the chief of the station loudly, reminding him that it was time to play Chen.
At the court meeting, only officials of the fifth rank or above have the right to make a statement, and there is a time limit to prevent the time of the court meeting from being out of control, and to improve the efficiency of the court meeting.
Han Zhongliang stopped.
Qin Lang stood up and went out.
"The Minister of the Ministry of Officials, the Secretary of the Ministry of Public Security, and Qin Lang, the Minister of Tongping Zhang, request His Majesty to send the three legal departments to jointly investigate. In order to show justice, the minister please resign and avoid!"
As soon as Qin Lang's words came out, there were already many officials' exclamations from the hall.
"Silence, silence!"
The censor in the palace had to shout orders to remind the officials of court discipline.
The new censor, Han Zhongliang personally impeached Prime Minister Qin Lang, and Qin Lang immediately resigned to avoid suspicion in order to accept investigation. This happened one after another, and many officials were a little excited.
In a peaceful and boring morning, nothing so exciting has happened for a long time.
Beyond all expectations.
The emperor spoke slowly.
"The Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice cooperated with the Yushitai to investigate the impeachment case of Qin Lang, the Zhongshu servant Ma Zhou, the Huangmen servant Cui Gan, and the Hanlin University scholar Cen Wenwen supervised the case!"
"As the prime minister, Qin Sanlang was able to take the initiative to resign in case of impeachment and to cooperate with the investigation. I am very pleased. Such an upright behavior makes me doubt Qin Sanlang's virtue. But to prove Sanlang's innocence, I accept Sanlang's resignation. Go to Qin Lang Tong Ping Zhangshi, Procurator of the Ministry of Officials, and Jing Zhaoyin, and after the investigation is over, if he is innocent, he will be reinstated!"
The emperor praised Qin Lang for being upright and upright, accepted his resignation, and gave Qin Lang a hundred volumes of books.
"I have one more request, I hope the sage can remove my father as prime minister!"
No one expected that Qin Lang not only resigned his position as prime minister, but also resigned his father Qin Qiong as prime minister.
"Please allow the sage to show justice and ensure the smooth progress of the investigation."
Qin Qiong is far away in Songzhou, and hasn't returned to the court for several years, so what can he affect? His prime minister, everyone knows, is just a name.
Last time Li Jing and Yang Gongren went to be prime ministers, but Qin Qiong didn't. It shows that the emperor still treats Qin Qiong differently.
"Remove Qin Qiong Pingzhang from the title of important military and state affairs, and give Songzhou Shiyi, a total of 2,500 households before the closure of Shishi!"
Qin Lang then played again.
"The Daming Palace under my supervision has been completed. Please remove the title of inspector Sikong."
Looking at Qin Lang, Li Shimin felt that this guy was getting excited, and glared at him, telling him to accept him as soon as he was good, but Qin Lang didn't back down.
"Okay, then Qin Lang will be removed from inspecting the school and Sikong."
"Your Majesty, I have one more matter. The imperial court formulated the civil and military rank system, with the rank as the main product. The minister has held civil and military positions successively. Your Majesty has successively awarded the Wen San rank to Kaifuyi Tong Sansi and Hushi General Martial Arts. The scattered ranks do not conform to the new scattered rank system established by the imperial court, I ask your majesty to remove one and keep only one."
Li Shimin is bored to death.
Originally, today's court meeting happened, it was only what the two of you had agreed a few days ago, to cooperate with the performance, let Yushitai investigate, Qin Lang resigned, set such a precedent, if Li Shimin doesn't like any prime minister in the future, there is no need Then kick the imperial case, or directly issue an order to dismiss the prime minister, but let Yushitai come forward, so that it will be easier to retract and release, and it will also be convenient for future generations to operate when they become emperors.
Helped his father to resign the title of prime minister.
However, Qin Lang's both civil and military ranks are indeed a bit special. There is only one in the imperial court. No one hangs on both sides.
Before, it was regarded as a special treatment for Qin Lang, but now he took the initiative to get rid of one.
Very sensible.
But in the eyes of other officials, it seems that Qin Sanlang is having a temper.
Well, this kind of thing didn’t happen once or twice. Qin Sanlang seemed to get angry a lot. I still remember that when the Xuanwu Gate was just out of date, he once had a lot of trouble because he refused the emperor’s bestowal on his younger sister. Marriage is the solution.
This time, I don't know what kind of trouble Qin Lang is going to make.
It's okay to make a fuss, everyone knows that Qin Lang is extremely favored, so it doesn't matter how much you make a fuss.
"Then you will be retained as the first-rank Wensan official of Kaifu Yitong and the third division, and the Hussar General will be removed from the first-rank Wusan rank." Li Shimin made a decision.
"Your Majesty, I want to keep Wu Sanjie." Qin Lang stood there and said.
Li Shimin began to gnash his teeth, what are you doing, have you repented and don't want to quit?
"I feel that I have some minor military exploits. Xuanwumen served Tian to calm the chaos, Zhongnanshan ordered peace, Youzhou calmed the chaos, Jingzhou suppressed the rebellion, and even Lingnan Fuman, Longyou conquered the Qiang, and destroyed the country and Tuyuhun. I don't read many books, and I guess I have left a few essays, and the scholar-bureaucrats are not willing to be with me."
Li Shimin suppressed his temper.
Young people are not so indifferent after all, and they are still a little bit reluctant to be the prime minister. Forget it, I don’t care about it like you, and I will do whatever you want.
Keep the Wu San rank and use the Wu San rank.
"Sanlang, the title of Kaifu Yitong Sansi is relatively rare." Li Shimin reminded Qin Lang again that civil and military are divided into categories. When fighting the world, military is more important than civil, but now when governing the world, of course civil is more important than military.
Your Qin family already has a general of hussars, you, Qin Lang, can keep Kaifuyi and the third division.
But Qin Lang wants to be the general of the hussars.
Now the entire imperial court, Hussar Generals are just the two of them, and Li Jing has changed to the third division of Fuyitong.
"Stop being a first-rank hussar general!"
The emperor patiently gave Qin Lang the San rank or changed it to Wu San rank the highest. After thinking about it, he simply said, "Design Taiwei Qin Qiong as the third division of Kaifu Yitong."
Since Qin Lang insisted on the Hussar General's Wu Sanjie, he would replace Qin Qiong's with Kaifu Yitong Sansi.
But in this way, in the entire Tang court, only Qin Lang is the general of Hussars.
The military generals and officials are the highest.
Qin Qiong and Li Jing are both Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and a famous clan king like Li Xiaogong is only a special advance of the second rank. Fortified generals like Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin are only the champion generals of the third rank.
Liu Hongji and Chai Shao, as the elders of the two dynasties, are only second-rank generals of the town army.
There is no one who is the second-rank general of Fuguo, and the first-rank hussar general is Qin Qiong and his father, but now there is only Qin Lang.
The important reason for this situation is that firstly, the ranks of hussars and auxiliary state generals are too high, from the first rank and the second rank, and secondly, after the new loose rank system is established, most of the top generals in the court have transferred It is a civilian job, so with the change of official position, it has also been changed to the prose class.
For example, Li Jing who became the prime minister, Hou Junji who became the minister of the Ministry of War, Li Xiaogong who became the minister of the Ministry of Rites, etc.
Chang Sun Shunde and Liu Hongqi are also in the rank of martial arts because they are military officers such as governors and in charge of the military. The same is true for Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong.
Originally, if Qin Langruo was the prime minister, he should also be transferred to the Wen San class.
But now that Qin Lang resigned as prime minister, the emperor just let him mess around for a while.
"Give Qin Lang the rank of Hussar General, and add Wu Anzhou as the governor! Add food and seal, a total of 2,000 households!" Li Shimin simply changed Qin Lang's fiefdom from the state to the governor's mansion.
With the current size of Wu'an Prefecture, it is more than enough to be promoted to the Lower Governor's Mansion. It happens that the title of Governor is more suitable for the military rank of General Hussars.
A group of courtiers were a little confused.
What are these two doing here?
The imperial censor Han Zhongliang was even more gloomy, feeling that he seemed to have been tricked. The imperial censor Cui Renshi instigated him to engage in Qin Lang, but this guy was born in a bungalow of the Cui family in Boling. It's the same branch, but it's also Boling Cui.
Could it be that he was fooled by Master Cui Ren? Xiao Cui is trying to cheat me, because he has taken a fancy to my position?
Qin Lang resigned to the end in the hall, and also resigned from the four official positions originally reserved for him by the emperor, namely, the scholar of the Chongxian Hall, the supervisor of the National History of the History Hall, the Prince Taishi, and the Prince Zhan Shi.
The current Qin Lang is truly unofficial and light-hearted.
Now his title is much briefer, Great Tang Hussar General Shi Feng Wuan Prefecture Governor Shangzhu State Wei Gong Qin Lang.
The court meeting ended, Qin Lang walked out of the golden palace, and waited for Han Zhongliang at the door, "Taiwan Master Han, don't worry, investigate slowly, you must find out clearly."
Wei Zheng thought that Qin Lang was going to threaten Han Zhongliang, so he planned to record it on the wat board with a pen, but he just said this.
Ma Zhou asked Qin Lang in puzzlement, "What does Sanlang mean? Just because of a bullet, he has to pile up his picks and quit. Is this the air of a prime minister?"
"You don't understand, I'm playing a game of chess, generally big." Qin Lang stood in front of the hall, looked up at the sky, and said slowly, pretending to be thirteen.
"It's nothing!" Wei Zheng walked by, leaving a sentence full of disdain!
Qin Lang almost stumbled, good you Wei Xuancheng!
