Chapter 107 Section 5 Hu Shahu listens to politics

The ministers resolutely opposed Hu Shahu's becoming emperor, and Hu Shahu himself felt that the public anger was hard to offend, but he couldn't think of a better solution.Just when Hu Shahu was in great distress, someone gave him an idea to get the best of both worlds.So, who is this person? At this time, Hu Shahu claimed to be the Marshal of the Supervisory Capital, but no one asked him to supervise the country. He proclaimed himself to be in charge of the military.Tu Shanyi, the elder and prime minister, told Hu Shahu that Wanyan Xun, the king of Yi, was fifty years old. He was kind and sophisticated. He was the elder brother of Emperor Zhangzong.Hu Shahu thinks it's okay, the old man is fifty, and he might die someday; kindness and honesty show that he is useless, and his uselessness can be controlled easily.So Hu Shahu agreed to make Wanyan Xun the emperor, and this was Jin Xuanzong, the eighth emperor of the Jin Dynasty.After Emperor Xuanzong succeeded to the throne, it was said that such a rebellious official and traitor like Hu Shahu should be dealt with, but Xuanzong not only did not deal with Hu Shahu, but also named him Taishi, Shang Shuling, Marshal Du, and King Ze to take charge of military and political power.Because Xuanzong himself had no power, a big pie fell from the sky, and he took over. He could be the emperor, and Hu Shahu had the merit of supporting him.In the Jin Dynasty, apart from Wanyan Zongbi, no one had ever been such a great official.Hu Shahu became more domineering in the court.

Once, Emperor Xuanzong heard a report from Shangshu Zuocheng that the Mongolian cavalry had reached the vicinity of Zhongdu, and they were roaming around. Xuanzong asked Hu Shahu for questioning.The Mongolian soldiers are calling, why don't you report to me?Hu Shahu stared at him, His Majesty should not worry about this matter, this minister has already dealt with it.Then, he turned his head and glared at the officials of Shangshu Province in front of the emperor. I am Shangshuling. What are you reporting to the emperor? Why don't you pass me?The officials of the Shangshu Province were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed, we were wrong, the Grand Master forgives us, and we will never dare to do it next time.The emperor felt very sad, what Hu Shahu wanted me to know, I could know what, such a big thief, who can get rid of me?The emperor thinks Hu Shahu is too bad, who can help me get rid of this giant thief?Needless to say, there was really a person who stepped forward, fulfilled the emperor's wish, and got rid of Hu Shahu.The problem is, the front door drives away the tiger, and the back door enters the wolf. If Hu Shahu is a fierce tiger, the person who gets rid of Hu Shahu is a vicious wolf.Who is this person?
