Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Gao Qiu snorted: "What a nonsense!"

    Looking at the entire Song Dynasty, Wu Zhi is probably the person Gao Qiu most wants to cut into pieces!

    Gao Qiu immediately asked his cronies to send the news to Tokyo via flying pigeons.

    Tokyo City Imperial City, Prince's East Palace.

    "What are you talking about? Wu Zhi just wants an iron coupon for the Alchemy Book!?"

    Zhao Kai looked in disbelief after receiving the news.

    After confirming that he heard correctly, Zhao Kai frowned tightly and asked Chuichiro Tairachi who was sitting next to him.

    "What kind of medicine is being sold in this Wuzhi Gourd?"

    "Anyone with any brains knows that the Iron Book of Alchemy is just a cover to deceive people. If the emperor really wants to kill a minister, how can he care about the so-called death-free gold medal?"

    Tairachi Chuichiro gently stroked his long beard.

    He said: "Your Highness, this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. We can take it apart and analyze it."

    "Wu Zhi is a brave and resourceful person, and he is very airtight when doing things. He told Gao Qiu that he wanted an iron certificate in the alchemy book, but here, his words should have another meaning."

    Zhao Kai seems very anxious, now is the most critical moment for him to win the throne.

    No matter which step you take, you must not be careless at all.

    ¡°Tell me quickly, what does Wu Zhi want?¡±

    Tairachi Chuichiro smiled slightly: "If my guess is correct, Wu Zhi should have an identity. Since Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, there has been an unwritten law that scholar-bureaucrats are exempt from prison, no matter how big their crimes are.  The crime is punishable by death!¡±

    "Although this is not entirely true, some scholar-bureaucrats can still be imprisoned. But for Wu Zhi, what he lacks most now is a real identity recognized by the court!"

    Zhao Kai clapped his hands after hearing Chuichiro Tairachi's words.

    "I see, this Wu Zhi is really insidious. He actually wants to be a scholar-official in a roundabout way?"

    Scholar-bureaucrat, to common people, means "senior official".

    In the Song Dynasty, there was a saying that was very popular.

    This is what Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin said.

    "Ruling the world together with the scholar-bureaucrats."

    Under normal circumstances, no matter what mistakes a scholar-official made, he would be spared death.

    The most classic one is Su Dongpo.

    At the beginning, because of the reform, Wang Anshi and his faction encountered strong opposition led by brothers Sima Guang and Su Shi.

    Therefore, some people tried their best to put Su Dongpo in jail and almost killed him.

    In the end, Su Dongpo's illegitimate son Liang Shicheng saved Su Dongpo from death on the grounds that "literary officials cannot be killed" and was subsequently demoted.

    Wu Zhi was originally the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he already belonged to the category of scholar-officials.

    ¡°But Wu Zhi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, has a somewhat unfair reputation. After all, he has now been branded as a robber and bandit.

    With Wu Zhi¡¯s status, it is absolutely impossible for him to just get an ordinary official position. If he wants it now, he must get a big one!

    Zhao Kai quickly asked Tairachi Chuichiro.

    "What kind of official position do you think we should strive for for Wu Zhi?"

    "He is already the minister of the Ministry of Industry. If we give him another promotion, I'm afraid other ministers won't be willing to do it, right?"

    For Zhao Kai, Wu Zhi is already a member of his faction.

    He will try his best to obtain an official position for Wu Zhi and completely bind Wu Zhi into his faction.

    Only in this way can we not be at a disadvantage when facing Zhao Huan, Cai Jing and others in the future.

    Tairachi Chuichiro smiled and said: "What do you think, Your Highness, from the second-grade Prince's Shaoshi, or the Prince's Shaobao?"

    Upon hearing this, Zhao Kai couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Is this too high?"
