Chapter 41 The King Reigns His Man
In Zhang's house, Zhang Zhaohua turned over the stove in his hand while staring at Brother Chun, who seemed to be very uncomfortable in the arms of the shaver.
Zhang Zhaohua dragged Brother Chun'er out of the palace early in the morning, and as soon as he arrived at Zhang's house, he called a head shaver to shave Brother Chun'er's head. Wang sat next to Zhang Zhaohua, her eyes were also staring at Brother Chun'er, she didn't dare to tease at this time, Brother Chun'er has never been very honest, in case the shaved head picker hurt him, it would not make her feel distressed to death.
"You give me honesty," Zhang Zhaohua saw that Brother Chun'er seemed to be kicking his legs again, and his eyes widened: "It'll be fine in a while!"
"What do you say you are shaving your child's head at this time?" Wang said: "Isn't it okay to shave your head in the spring?"
"Look at his hair growing fast," Zhang Zhaohua said: "It's about to be the first month, you can't shave in the first month, the dragon in February looks up, you can't use knives and cuts, and when it comes to March, his hair has to grow into inches!"
There is also a grate room in the house, which is specially designed for the royal children to ask for hair, hair, bag, and plastic surgery. According to the regulations, the princes and princesses must grow to the age of ten in order to keep their long hair tied behind, and not a single stem before the age of ten, like a Buddha.
Brother Chun'er often has a round bare head under a six-petal round hat of Yuanqing crepe, and there is a little scar on the head that is almost invisible, which is his own harm. At that time, the people in the grate room cleaned his hair, and seven or eight people surrounded him, still unable to persuade him, and rushed forward, and was scratched by scissors. It was also thanks to the quick reaction of the head shaving master, but he was only lightly stabbed and sporadically bleeding, but it made King Yan angry, and he whipped the man twenty times and drove him out of the house.
Zhang Zhaohua couldn't help it, she knew that she was not staring at her, and no one could control Brother Chun. It was all he who was naughty, but he caused others to be punished, and this person was at fault, so Zhang Zhaohua sent the money. But since this incident, no one in the grate room dared to shave Brother Chun'er's head, and Brother Chun'er himself was not happy to shave his head.
Zhang Zhaohua simply caught him in Zhang's house, and the master who shaved his head didn't know that Brother Chun'er was the grandson of the king, and when he saw Brother Chun'er jumping up, he grabbed his neck and patted his buttocks, bluffing Brother Chun'er and not daring to move anymore.
Zheng quickly opened the curtain and came in, and said with a smile: "Brother Chun'er has shaved his head, the meal is ready!"
Zhang Zhaohua glanced at Wang: "Why do you have food today? I'm a person who comes to my mother's house and can't even eat it!"
"You still hold grudges, hold grudges!" Wang couldn't help but pat her twice: "You beat my good grandson like that, can you still eat?"
Zhang Zhaohua turned over and stood up: "Who am I beating him for? My father-in-law and mother-in-law haven't taught me a lesson, so I was beaten by my own mother first!"
Wang's "oops" was about to speak, but he heard Brother Chun'er also have a big "oops", and the three of them hurried to look, but found that he was just learning to speak from Wang, and he learned vividly.
Zhang Qi and Zhang Chang are not there, they just went to the ground today, Xiaobao is now more than eight years old, sent to a private school to study, and did not come back at noon. At the dinner table, Brother Chun'er was very unhappy because he was forcibly caught and shaved his hair today, and he kept knocking on the table with his hands, and he also pulled Jingjing, who was eating well-behaved next to him.
While mischievous, he secretly looked at Zhang Zhaohua's expression, and saw that she seemed to be about to hold back, so he immediately stopped and took a big gulp of food in his mouth.
After eating, Zhang Zhaohua came to the east house alone, in this guest room, there was no teacher living in this guest room, but Zhang Zhaohua was under house arrest.
She walked in lightly, and saw a huge room, with books scattered on the ground everywhere, a person wearing only single clothes, lying on his back on the big table and snoring, but fortunately there were two braziers in the room, otherwise this person would have felt strange if he hadn't frozen to death.
When I got closer, I found that this guy was disheveled, barefoot, and looked like he had no action. Zhang Zhaohua couldn't help but laugh silently, sat quietly on the chair next to him, and picked up a book from the ground to look at it.
Zhang Zhaohua knew that he was pretending to be asleep, this person's belly was undulating unevenly, and his breathing was thick and thin for a while, she slowly flipped through a few pages and found that this was a book of "Analects", and many places in the book were marked differently.
She took a closer look and found that the words circled with a red pen were all "loyalty", such as "In the city of ten rooms, there must be those who are as faithful as Qiu, and they are not as studious as Qiu", "The Lord is faithful, and those who are not friends are not as good as themselves, and if they pass, they should not be afraid to change", "Zizhang asks about politics." Zi said: 'Stay tireless, and be loyal.' ββ
Zhang Zhaohua couldn't help but snort from his nose, but saw that this person had turned over and sat up at some point, looking at her with a vigilant and contemptuous look.
Zhang Zhaohua smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Wang, the name has been admired for a long time. β
This person is the person she caught in Changyimen, the person who planned the rebellion of Chongrenmen, almost caused a catastrophe and successfully escaped. During the Hongwu period, he was recommended by the Ming Jing as the supervisor of Shandong Province, and he was still an official.
When he came to Beiping, he was actually sent by the Shangshu of the Criminal Department - at that time, Geng Bingwen was stationed in Zhending, and the imperial court set up another political envoy of Pingyan, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department was in charge of the affairs of the political department. However, Geng Bingwen soon lost with his troops, and Wang Du was in the melee and did not enter Zhending City, so he had to follow the soldiers who surrendered to the official army and was escorted to Beiping.
When he entered Beiping City, he immediately used a trick to get out, pretending to be a beggar, and turned Beiping City around, and he knew it by heart- He was waiting for Li Jinglong's army to arrive, Beiping City was about to be broken, but he didn't expect Li Jinglong to abandon the opportunity, he found that he couldn't count on this person, so he planned to break open a door inside and outside, among the nine gates, Chongren Gate is a weak point, he imitated documents and put them into Renshoufang that night, deceived a group of poor people to believe his words, and then the next day encountered the official army attacking Chongrenmen, these people under his leadership, almost succeeded.
It's a pity that the offensive of the official army did not last long, otherwise the city gate would not have been able to hold - the more he thinks about Li Jinglong now, the more he hates it. Because this man led people to raise fire, he actually thought that reinforcements had come to reinforce Chongrenmen, and he didn't understand it, so he ordered a retreat, which caused his plan to fail.
After that, Wang Du had to hide again, and when Qu Neng attacked Changyi Gate later, he rushed out, ready to follow Qu Neng, but he didn't expect to be stopped by the woman in front of him, and he got this place and was firmly supervised.
"Concubine Yan Shi," Wang Du's tone was difficult to say respectful: "It's also a long admiration!"
"Listen to Mr.'s tone," Zhang Zhaohua said jokingly: "I'm still angry that I caught you that day! But also, if you hadn't been caught by me, you would have returned to the southern army camp by now, and I Beiping City, I don't know if I can hold it under Mr.'s advice!"
"Beiping City is deep," Wang Du said: "But it's not that it can't be attacked, otherwise Qu Neng wouldn't have attacked." This time, God gave Li Jinglong a good opportunity, but he made him ruined! He, a stupid thing like a pig, was obviously Zhao Kuo, and he thought he was Han Xin and Li Guang! Will he listen to my words?"
"Li Jinglong's chest has no ink, but he is still jealous of his ability," Wang Du sneered: "Otherwise, I won't fall for your strategy and put Qu Neng in prisonββ"
Zhang Zhaohua nodded in her heart, she planned to divide Qu Neng, and did not tell Wang Du, Wang Du just relied on his observation of Li Jinglong's transfer of ten miles, and deduced that he had used a divisive strategy here, which was really wise.
"The emperor doesn't know anyone," Zhang Zhaohua said: "The appointment of a person like Li Jinglong is doomed to failure." You are also a person with outstanding intellect, you will not fail to see the general trend of the world, you are a talented learner, you can't be empty, where to go, I don't need to say more. β
Wang Du first sneered, then looked up to the sky and laughed, and finally laughed almost out of breath: "Where am I going?
Zhang Zhaohua also sneered: "What kind of kindness does Jianwen have, so that you can only die to repay you?"
Wang Duhuo stood up suddenly, "In the past, Emperor Gao won the world with martial arts, focusing on the right martial arts, emphasizing martial arts and light literature, and the left class was not lucky, and there was no long or short effect, but the system was fixed, the chapter was repaired, and the decree was served. Until the lord is the heir, he ponders and lectures, and competes in martial arts, so the Han Academy has a tin and a book, and the left class Wenchen feels it in his heart, and he does not rush to his body, and he tends to die like home!
Even if Zhang Zhaohua prepared a belly of rhetoric, at this moment, he had nothing to say.
Indeed, as Wang Du said, Emperor Gao won the world with his martial arts, and most of his relatives were commanders and generals, and the kings also increased their authority by being able to control the armies. On the contrary, the status of Wenchen was very low, and Emperor Gao's killing of meritorious heroes in his later years did not touch the fundamental status and various privileges of martial artists. He killed only high-ranking generals who might pose a threat to imperial power.
In the hands of Emperor Gao, Wenchen is like a dog and a horse, not only Xie Jin thinks so, but most of the other civil officials who use things have this idea in their hearts. Since Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, he changed the policy of right martial arts and light literature, "returned to the left class", and strived to improve the status of Wenchen. He not only raised the rank of the six Shangshu and gave Wenchen the title of Minister, but also opened the imperial examination and re-established the officialdom principle of taking Jinshi as the right path of the dynasty, which was tantamount to the heavenly rain for the Wenchen who survived the high-pressure politics of Hongwu.
On the contrary, the military generals and nobles, because the improvement of the status of the civil servants will inevitably inhibit their rights and interests. Their dissatisfaction with Jianwen's new policy is inevitable, which is why Yan Wang Jing is difficult, many generals surrender to the enemy, half-push and half-push, or collapse without a fight, willing to be captured, these people are still the commanders of the governor.
Compared with the military generals, Wenchen's integrity is really admirable - only the county officials of Beiping are not all like Guo Zi, Lu Zhen, and Mo Lin who chose to serve King Yan, and there are 291 people who choose to abandon their officials or die, and they refuse to cooperate with King Yan. Many people are generous and killed, in the words of the righteous themselves, "two righteous qi return to the spring, and a little Danxin is in the emperor's hometown". In addition to doing the most of the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, the main thing is that they have their own political ideals and propositions. They would rather die for the Jianwen New Deal than return to Hongwu-style tyranny.
Just like the winter and frost around Zhang Zhaohua, in the palace, the rules were strict, and the people Zhang Zhaohua saw were like puppets, and when they arrived in Beiping with her, they seemed to be angry, just like flowers that had been bullied by the wind and frost, and when they saw a little warm sunshine, they were desperate.
Zhang Zhaohua unconsciously burst into tears, she didn't know who the tears were for, but they quickly dispersed, and said, "A little kindness is enough to make you sacrifice your life and forget your death?"
"This little bit of kindness is hard to find, and it is enough to make people forget themselves," Wang Du said: "Isn't it enough?"
"Emperor Jianwen is just elevating you and suppressing the military ministers!" Zhang Zhaohua said: "He has no means to balance the increasingly prominent contradictions between the military generals and the civil ministers, if he has the ability of the Tang Dynasty and Song Ancestors, how can he cause a military disaster!"
The essence of this struggle was that the Yan Emperor and the military clique were on the one hand, and they tried their best to defend the ancestral system; on the one hand, Emperor Jianwen and the Wenchen clique were on the one hand, they wanted to implement the new policy, on the one hand, they wanted to maintain and expand their own vested interests, and on the other hand, they wanted to participate more in the political power and change the old system.
"Emperor Gao is dedicated to the right military, and the new emperor is dedicated to the right text," Zhang Zhaohua said: "Between the civil and military forces, there is only the transition of peaceful evolution, and it is not said that it will be achieved overnight within a year." You are willing to die for him, but you don't know that whoever sits in that position will gradually improve the status of Zuoban Wenchen, but you don't know how much better you are than him! He has caused such a great disaster, but the consequences have been borne by you! Open your eyes and see, your loyal king is actually just a hairy boy who doesn't understand anything and is still self-righteous! A little kindness and righteousness will win over the hearts of scholars who have been tortured by Emperor Gao!"
"So what?" Wang Du wiped away the tears that came out of laughter and said, "I have been consistent. β
Zhang Zhaohua said: "What kind of Tao are you? Are you the way of loyalty? You are also a disciple of Confucius, and you have not understood the truth of Confucius at all!"
"I want to listen to it," Wang Du's eyes also showed a playful look: "I want to listen to the high insight of the princess." β
