Chapter 3: Thinking of the People, Walking Together in the Courtyard?
Seeing Su Zhe's dark face, Tong Guan was very careful by the side. He did not even dare to breathe loudly!
Everyone in the court knew that the Right Deputy only had one brother. Usually, the Right Deputy would take responsibility for all the trouble Su Shi caused.
Today, the court had demoted Su Shi without informing Su Zhe. Who knew what this Right Deputy would do?
Tong Guan's heart was like dead ashes. If this Right Deputy was furious, then he would be the first unlucky person to be used to vent his anger!
At that time, it would be a problem whether he would live or not!
At this moment, Tong Guan's legs were trembling uncontrollably under his court clothes.
Standing in front of Su Zhe, every minute and every second was torture for him!
It was not only because this Right Deputy had a high position and power, but also because this Right Deputy was not just a scholar!
The Song Dynasty was the most prosperous country in the martial world. The imperial court was able to suppress the various powers of the pugilistic world not because of the hundreds of thousands of imperial guards in Bianjing City, nor because of the name of the Song Dynasty.
It was this Lord Little Su, Su Zhe, who was known as the " Sword and Calligraphy Master " in the pugilistic world!
Su Zhe's strength was unfathomable. There had long been rumors that his strength had reached the legendary level.
The person in front of him could really take his old life!
After a long while, Su Zhe finally moved. He put the note into his sleeve and scolded,"
"Damn it, have these people learned to be smart?”
It had to be said that Su Zhe was a little numb at this moment!
It wasn't just a day or two that his elder brother had been courting death. When the former emperor's divine sect was still around, this fellow had already written a letter to scold the former emperor.
After Zhe Zong came to court, Su Shi relied on his two dynasties 'elders and his literary reputation to court all kinds of trouble!
However, when Su Zhe, who was the Minister of State and was blessed by the heavens, appeared, he immediately suppressed everyone, including the little Emperor Zhao Xu.
He was a 14-year-old official, an important official entrusted by the late Emperor, and the number one expert of the Great Song Dynasty. Even the little Emperor had to give him face.
With this, Su Zhe barely managed to protect Su Shi!
However, he couldn't stop his brother from either courting death or courting death. This time, Wang Anshi and the others learned their lesson. He was just a little slower, and Su Shi was demoted from the court.
At this moment, Tong Guan was shocked by Su Zhe's reaction.
Last time, when Lord Su tricked the Liao Dynasty, he seemed to have revealed this kind of smile?
"Lord Right Deputy, this old servant is just an errand boy in the palace. This matter really has nothing to do with this old servant!”Tong Guan wanted to cry but had no tears, he even begged!
Su Zhe looked at Tong Guan, who was scared out of his wits, with a puzzled expression.""Eunuch Tong, I didn't say I was going to do anything to you. Why are you panicking?
Since His Majesty has already issued an edict, I naturally have no objections. Moreover, my brother should also suffer!”
Hearing this, Tong Guan felt like he had been pardoned. He quickly smiled and said,"That's good, that's good! Then Lord Su, this old servant will return to the palace to report to the Sage.”
Su Zhe nodded. When Tong Guan saw this, he immediately used his lightness skill and flew towards the palace. It was obvious that he did not want to stay with Su Zhe for another second!
"Am I that scary?"
Su Zhe pursed his lips. Back then, in order to strengthen the guards around the Emperor of Song, he had seriously taught this Lord Tong for half a month. At least they had worked together before.
Touching the note in his sleeve, Su Zhe made up his mind. No way!
This time, he would let his brother, who loved to court death, learn a lesson!
...
A few days later, at the Huangzhou government office.
The entire Huangzhou government was decorated with lanterns and streamers. Even during the New Year, it was not as lively!
"Grandpa, who are those people dressed in colorful clothes? Are you here to perform in Huangzhou?"
At the entrance of the yamen, a little girl with pigtails asked her grandfather curiously.
"I don't dare to speak nonsense. These are the officials of our Huangzhou government, the parents of our Huangzhou!”The white-haired old man looked terrified, but he couldn't help but feel curious.
What kind of big shot had come to Huangzhou?
Otherwise, why would all the officials of Huangzhou gather at the entrance of the government office?
At this moment, outside the Huangzhou government office, there were many people who were as confused as this old man. Although Huangzhou was rich, there was never such a scene during festivals.
At the entrance of the yamen, the Huangzhou Zhizhou looked up expectantly."Any news? Where is Lord Su?"
"Coming, coming! That carriage will do!"
The officials of Huangzhou were instantly excited. They hurriedly tidied up their appearance and prepared to welcome this legendary literary giant.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Huangzhou government's yamen. Su Shi pulled open the curtain with a worried expression. The swelling from the fight with Shen Kuo in front of the palace a few days ago had not yet subsided. In addition, he had been demoted to Huangzhou. At this moment, Su Shi could be said to be in a sorry state.
However, the moment he opened the curtain, Su Shi was shocked by the scene in front of him.
"Lord Su is tired from the journey. I have prepared a banquet in the government office.”The one who spoke was the Huangzhou Zhizhou. He had a very humble attitude because even if Su Shi was demoted, he still had his younger brother, Su Zhe, who was the right minister of the dynasty!
"Su Shi is terrified, and I have to trouble all of you to personally welcome him.”At this moment, Su Shi could not help but feel dejected. Now that he had been demoted, most of these people in front of him had become his superiors. If it was not for Su Zhe, these people would probably give him a hard time.
"Lord Su, you're too kind. Let me introduce you. These are the county magistrates of Huangzhou, and this is the chief registrar of Huangzhou, Brother Zhang Huaimin. Brother Zhang is very talented.”
"After tonight's banquet, Lord Su will follow Brother Zhang to the Chengtian Temple to settle down. After this lowly official has cleaned up Lord Su's official residence, I will personally invite him.”
Listening to the Zhizhou's enthusiastic arrangements, Su Shi's heart felt less uneasy. After seeing Zhang Huaimin, who had also been demoted to Huangzhou, Su Shi felt even more sympathetic.
At the banquet later, Su Shi and Zhang Huaimin chatted for a while. They regretted not meeting each other earlier and actually became bosom friends!
The two of them took a carriage back to Chengtian Temple. Under the recommendation of the abbot, Su Shi finally had a place to stay after a few days of bumpy travel.
"Sigh!" Looking at the cold moonlight outside the window, Su Shi tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep!
Thinking back on these few days, he had undoubtedly experienced the ups and downs of his life. From criticizing the current abuses in the court to being demoted to Huangzhou, Su Shi knew that his political career was over!
"That brat, it's fine if he didn't reply to my brother, but he didn't even give me money? If I hadn't borrowed some money from an old friend, I would have starved to death on the way.”
Thinking of his younger brother Su Zhe, Su Shi felt even more depressed.
When his career had hit rock bottom, he was not even willing to help his own brother?
Su Shi let out a long sigh. He couldn't sleep anyway, so he decided to get up and go to the temple to relax!
"I'm all alone here. I'm even more unfamiliar with this place. There's not even anyone to talk to…" Su Shi was dejected. He glanced at the room next door, but his eyes lit up!
That's right! There was also another Zhang Huaimin who was demoted like him in Chengtian Temple!
Thinking of this, Su Shi walked quickly to the door of the wing room.
The night in the ancient temple was peaceful and quiet. At this moment, an extremely discordant knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Huaimin, are we walking in the courtyard?”
