Chapter 947: Eternal Advisors
The Hu family was abolished without fault, and the people of the world sympathized with it after hearing it. A few years later, Xuanzong also regretted it, and once laughed at himself, "This is what I did impulsively when I was young." “
After seven years of orthodoxy, the Empress Dowager Zhang, who had always been pitiful to Hu Abolish, died, and she cried bitterly after Hu Abolished, and died the following year, and Ming Yingzong was buried to Jinshan with the rites of concubine. In the civil change, Ming Yingzong was captured, and Empress Dowager Sun ordered the king to supervise the country, and after Emperor Ming Jing ascended the throne, he respected him as the empress dowager of the Holy Emperor. At that time, Yingzong was in the north, and the Empress Dowager Sun also sent winter clothes many times. After Yingzong returned to the dynasty, he was imprisoned in the South Palace by Emperor Jing, and the Empress Dowager Sun looked at it several times. After that, Shi Heng launched a rebellion to seize the door, first secretly told the Empress Dowager Sun and obtained permission. After the restoration of Yingzong, the emblem was called the Empress Dowager of Shenglie Cishou, which was the beginning of the Ming Dynasty palace emblem. In September of the sixth year of Tianshun, the Empress Dowager Sun died, and Yingzong said that filial piety, Gongyi, Xianci, benevolence, Zhuang Lie, Qi Tian, and the Empress Shengzhang, were buried in Jingling and Qitai Temple. And Yingzong's biological mother, no one knows?
After the death of Empress Dowager Sun, Empress Qian said to Yingzong: "Back then, Empress Hu was virtuous and innocent, and she was abolished as an immortal master. When he died, people were afraid of the Empress Dowager Sun, and her funeral was not as ceremonial. So he persuaded him to return to his original position. Yingzong asked the scholar Li Xian, and Li Xian agreed, and said: "Your Majesty's heart, the heavens, the earth, ghosts and gods are really there." However, the ministers take the mausoleum, enjoy the hall, and the god are all suitable for the first hall, and they are called His Majesty xià Ming filial piety. "In the seventh year of Tianshun, Yingzong pursued Empress Hu to respect Empress Cheng Shun Kang Mu Jing Ci Zhang, repaired the mausoleum, and did not build the temple. That's a story for later, so I won't say much about it here.
In short, after some persuasion by Yang Zheng, coupled with the dispatch of several cabinet ministers from the cabinet, Zhu Zhanji's early years on the throne of this post-abolition event slowly subsided, for those ministers outside the noon gate, at first still asked the emperor to make a promise, still kneeling and not getting up, Zhu Zhanji sent eunuchs to scold a few times, but these officials did not believe in eunuchs without eggs, and continued to kneel outside the noon gate, which made Zhu Zhanji very annoyed, and said to the eunuchs: "As the lord of the world, can't I still do my own family affairs? Didn't I do this for the sake of me giving birth to a dragon son as soon as possible, and setting the foundation of the country early, is this too much thought? ”
These words were said to the eunuchs, and the eunuchs in the palace were yearning for the emperor, and when they heard this, they naturally shook their heads again and again: "It's not too much, how can these ministers interfere in the family affairs of His Majesty, and besides, Hu Niangniang's health is not good, and she can't carry the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty, Your Majesty is doing this for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, for the sake of the future of the Ming Dynasty, and has a far-reaching vision?" How could it be that these ignorant ministers could understand that they were only afraid that they were not here to persuade His Majesty, but to win their own reputation? ”
Zhu Zhan basically just said it casually, but he couldn't help the addition of these eunuchs, and he was really a little annoyed with these nerds, the old scholar was indiscriminately playing the chapter in the unclear situation, pointing at his family affairs for no reason, if it was for the sake of the government, but some officials obviously took the opportunity to obtain the name of the eternals, and they even wanted to use this matter to provoke themselves and let themselves use the power of the court staff, so that he could leave the infamy of the ages to me, and he became a minister for the ages! “
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji's heart was full of fire and said: "They all want to be Wei Zheng? Want to be beautiful? ”
Wang Zhen on the side suddenly had a glint in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Wei Zheng is just beautified by the world, doesn't Tang Taizong like him?" ”
Zhu Zhanji admired the extremely clever eunuch beside him, and said when he heard the words: "I have only heard that Wei Zheng was outspoken and advised, and assisted Tang Taizong to jointly create the great cause of "Zhenguan Zhizhi", which was called "a generation of famous ministers" by later generations, and when Wei Zheng died, Li Shimin was very sad, and abolished the dynasty for five days. Posthumously presented Wei Zheng as the governor of Sikong and Xiangzhou, and called him "Wenzhen".
Li Shimin issued an edict to bury Wei Zheng, but Wei Zheng's wife Pei refused on the grounds that Wei Zheng's life was simple and simple, and the luxurious funeral was not the will of the deceased. Pei's only had a small car to load Wei Zheng's coffin, and Li Shimin summoned hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to send them off, and personally engraved the inscription.
After Wei Zheng's death, Li Shimin often said to the courtiers around him: "You can use the bronze mirror to straighten your clothes, use ancient history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, and use people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses." I often use this way to prevent myself from making mistakes, but now that Wei Zheng has passed away, I am missing a mirror. After Wei Zheng's death, I sent someone to his house to get a page of his posthumous form, which had just been drafted, and the words were all illegible, only the first few lines, which were slightly recognizable, and it read: 'There are good and evil things in the world, and if you appoint good people, the country will be stable, and if you appoint evil people, the country will decline, and among the ministers, there is love and hatred in feelings, and those who hate yourself will only see his evil, and those who love will only see his goodness. If you love and know his evil, and if you hate and know his good, and do not hesitate to remove evil, and appoint wise men without suspicion, the country will prosper. That's the gist of the testament, but when I think about it, I'm afraid I can't avoid the mistakes that Wei Zheng said. The ministers and ministers can write these words on the handboard, knowing that I have a mistake and must admonish, which shows my love for Wei Zheng, the relationship between the two of them is an excellent example of the monarch and the minister through the ages, what does Mr. Wang mean by this? “
Wang Zhen seemed to have been prepared, and said unhurriedly: "The emperor only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other?" “
Zhu Zhanji knew that the eunuch beside him was really talented, and when he heard this, he turned his head curiously and glanced at Wang Zhendao: "What did Mr. Wang say about this?" “
Wang Zhendao: "Li Shimin and Wei Zheng, for thousands of years, the exemplary friendship between these two Ming monarchs and their ministers, the tacit understanding of cooperation, and many good stories have been widely praised in history and have been praised to this day, becoming a model for later generations of monarchs and ministers to emulate!" Speaking of this, his voice changed and said, "But not long after Wei Zheng's death, Li Shimin ordered Wei Zheng's tombstone to be smashed?" I'm afraid this shouldn't be what the model friendship between Ming Jun and the minister should do, right? “
Zhu Zhanji hummed and did not speak.
Wang Zhen glanced at Zhu Zhanji with slanted eyes, and saw that his face was solemn, and he looked like he was listening carefully, and he was immediately overjoyed, he was a teacher, and said that this kind of historical allusion was the most one, and he brewed it a little, and said: "If you want to talk about this matter, you have to start with the Tang Dynasty, then Wei Zheng is certainly talented, but it may not be comparable to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others, not to mention that Wei Zheng is still the person of the crown prince Li Jiancheng, in this way, Wei Zheng can be reused by Li Shimin, and the talent in it is not the most important, And the need for the throne has taken the lion's shoulders? “
Zhu Zhanji frowned slightly, revealing a thoughtful look, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Rebellion, killed his brother and slaughtered his brother, and after seizing the throne, he tried his best to recruit the old ministers of the East Palace, and the most conspicuous of them was Wei Zheng, in the end, Wei Zheng could be reused by Li Shimin, or because Li Shimin's throne needed him?
At that time, the Tang Dynasty had just been established, after the change of Xuanwumen, although it was said that he killed his brother Li Jiancheng, his younger brother Li Yuanji, and Shun lì ascended the throne, but Li Jiancheng was the prince at that time after all, and the strength in his hands was still not small. Internal stability is the first priority, so he must be able to unite a force that can be united.
In this case, the former ministers of the crown prince Li Jiancheng are undoubtedly the most important force for him, first, to subdue Li Jiancheng's old department, can block the mouth of the world, take the opportunity to spread his good name, and secondly, let the rest of the party who are still waiting and see also join in, based on these two benefits, Li Shimin chose Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng is a native of Guantao (now Hebei), lost his parents when he was a child, and his family was poor, but he loved to read and became a Taoist priest. In the last years of the Great Cause of the Sui Dynasty, Wei Zheng was appointed as the secretary of the Chengyuan Treasure of Wuyang County of the Sui Dynasty (located in the northeast of present-day Daming, Hebei). After Yuan Baobao returned to Li, he was appointed by Li Mi to join the army as the Marshal's Mansion, specializing in document files.
In the first year of Tang Gaozu Wude, after Li Mi failed, Wei Zheng followed him into the customs and surrendered to Tang, but it was not reused for a long time. The following year, Wei Zheng requested to go to Hebei to persuade him to surrender, which was granted. So he came to Liyang (now Jun County, Henan) and persuaded Li Mi's Liyang guard to surrender Xu Shiji to the Tang Dynasty. Soon, Dou Jiande captured Liyang, and Wei Zheng was captured. After Dou Jiande's defeat, Wei Zheng returned to Chang'an and was quoted by the crown prince Li Jiancheng as the prince's horse wash, and he was very courteous.
In the fifth year of Wude, Liu Heimin colluded with the Turks to invade Shandong. Wei Zheng saw that although Li Jiancheng was the eldest son, his merits were not as good as Li Shimin's, so he went to ask for meritorious service. Li Jiancheng obeyed Wei Zheng's Jianyi, captured Liu Heimin, and pacified Shandong.
In the ninth year of Wude, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident and killed Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and others. Li Shimin heard that Wei Zheng had often advised Li Jiancheng to arrange Li Shimin to go somewhere else, and Li Shimin sent someone to bring Wei Zheng and asked, "Why do you want to separate our brothers?" Wei Zheng replied, "If the prince had done what I said, there would have been no disaster today." Li Shimin saw that Wei Zheng spoke straightforwardly and did not hide it at all, so he pardoned Wei Zheng and used Wei Zheng as the main book of Zhan affairs. Thus began a period of falsehood between the kings and ministers of the ages.
But the world ignores Wei Zheng's identity, Wei Zheng was born in Guantao (now Hebei) is true, but behind him stands the Hebei giant deer Wei clan, since the Northern Qi Dynasty is a famous family in the Shandong Shi clan.
