As a place for ministers to be on duty, Wenyuan Pavilion is often very lively. Nowadays, several ministers in the cabinet, although there are some discords in face and heart, it is inevitable that there are games and conflicts between each other on many things, and even many times they are blowing their eyebrows and staring at each other, fighting each other to the death, and they are eager to eat each other, but more often, they still have to sit down and discuss things. - To tell the truth, the country is so big, there are so many officials, and the general affairs are so heavy, not everything has to be fought for, and not everything can be fought over.
As for what can be fought for, what should be fought for, and to what extent, every cabinet minister has an account in his heart. There are so many doorways in the officialdom that there are so many that the whole book of Siku can't be written. Which of these ministers who rose all the way up from the Hanlin Academy has not been immersed in the sea for decades before they can understand all the rules of the big game of officialdom? Therefore, it is actually rare to roll up your sleeves in Wenyuan Pavilion, and the situation of really quarreling is actually not the most intense time - the fierce game is generally done under the table, and you still have to follow the rules on the table. When the quarrel starts, it is when the incident is sudden, everyone is really real, it is difficult to unify opinions, and it is impossible to give the emperor a unified attitude, and the quarrel will be terrible.
Of course, it is really a major matter that cannot be agreed upon, and the emperor will not hand it over to the cabinet, sometimes he will order the court to deliberate, and sometimes he will summon the cabinet ministers to the Wenhua Hall to discuss. Anyway, Wenyuan Pavilion and Wenhua Hall are not far from each other, in order to facilitate the rulers of this group of empires to have a small meeting at any time.
Therefore, the main theme of Wenyuan Pavilion has always been very low, very gentle, and very organized, like a meeting that can never be held, and the occasional silence is just convenient for you to deal with your personal needs. In this way, countless general affairs were pasted with tickets in the hands of cabinet officials, and then sent to the palace, and the master of ceremonies copied Zhu Pi on his behalf, which is the so-called batch red. Of course, when the emperor has free time, he will still listen to the opinions of the abridgement and the draft vote, and sometimes if he is not satisfied, he will order the master of ceremonies Wang Jin and others to perform the chapter and return to Wenyuan Pavilion, discuss with the ministers to come up with a new ticket draft, and then send it back to be approved by the master of ceremonies - whenever this time, there will be a slightly sharp voice of the eunuch in the room.
But today's cabinet is so quiet that it can be heard, and it is rare for people to be complete, but everyone is just bored to read the chapters in their hands - some of the folds of the routine, which were originally just glanced at the abridgement, but at this time they all opened it and looked at the contents carefully, as if it was the "Spring and Autumn Period" written by Confucius, which was really subtle and righteous.
Even Wang Jin, who was sent to urge the ministers, was silent, he wiped the sweat on his forehead in embarrassment, looked left and right, simply folded his hands, and stood there, and he didn't say anything.
That is, half an hour ago, the emperor just summoned the cabinet to discuss the process after the abolition, the first assistant of the cabinet, Lord Yang, was rarely moved, he repeatedly took Song Renzong as an example, and implored the emperor not to have to abolish the queen, although the emperor has taken out the queen's self-request to abolish the throne, it still can't stop the determination of the first assistant Lord Yang, and even most of the important ministers of the cabinet to maintain orthodoxy.
Monarch father, monarch father, courtiers should respect the emperor as a father, this is the requirement of Confucianism and royal road, all the people in the world read this set of advocating Confucius and Mencius, the emperor is your father, the queen is your mother, there are fathers in the world who want to abandon their mothers, and those who are sons are beating gongs and drums on the side? Of course, whether the father sleeps or not, the mother is not in the son's charge, but as the emperor, that is the example of the people of the world, there are some things that you don't follow the rules, and everyone will endure it and it will pass, but some things can't but be more serious. After the abolition, it is obviously such a major event - the standards of the cabinet ministers, sometimes they are so flexible, and the so-called righteousness and subsections are very clearly divided.
There are three Yang adults in the cabinet, one is Lord Jin, and the first assistant Lord Yang is Xiyang, who is resolutely opposed, Lord Jin does not speak, and the other Lord Yang is Lord Dongyang, and the attitude is ambiguous, just now in front of the emperor, he also said, "The mother is more precious than the son, and the son is more precious than the mother......
This sentence has always been the best excuse to abolish the childless queen and let the concubines with children take the throne. For example, the ascendancy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is a very typical example of the son being noble to the mother, and the mother being precious to the son. When Lord Dongyang said this, he obviously leaned towards the Prince's East Palace, but his words were immediately drunk by Lord Nanyang, "There are so many childless queens in the world, are they all abolished?" ”
- This Lord Nanyang, because he has not made many achievements in handling government affairs, and has not made many meritorious achievements in the past years, has always been very silent in the cabinet. Not many people take his words seriously, but in this matter, as soon as he spoke, even Lord Dongyang, the minister who had always been Emperor Wen's confidant and had been with him before his death, couldn't help but shut up immediately. It was also because of his words that the cabinet has been quiet until now.
The reason is also very simple - Nanyang's qualifications have no highlights, no abilities, where are the highlights?
The highlight is in the loyalty and integrity of Lord Nanyang, he has always been the loyal of Emperor Renzong Zhao, during the reign of Emperor Wen, the East Palace greeting incident almost ruined the future of Emperor Zhao's crown prince. Lord Nanyang was loyal at that time, and he always stood by the side of the prince, and even was imprisoned in the imperial prison for ten years for this reason, until Emperor Zhao ascended the throne and was released.
However, during the reign of Emperor Zhao, although Lord Nanyang was repeatedly promoted and reused extraordinarily, his starting point was too low, and he was originally a prince washing horses, and he wanted to be a cabinet minister step by step, and he didn't know what year or month. Lord Nanyang entered the cabinet like a rocket, and after he ascended the throne today, the emperor directly withdrew the Hongwen Pavilion where he used to do things, and let Lord Nanyang enter the cabinet to listen to it.
Having said that, in the year when Donggong was driving, he was still young today, so he may not remember him Nanyang. The one who really remembered the name of Lord Nanyang was afraid that there was someone else. Of course, you can't talk nonsense, and you won't admit it if you say it. And this is not his stain, the current queen mother has gone through four dynasties, virtuous and virtuous women, the major affairs of the country can be known, and she can be appreciated, that is the blessing of Lord Nanyang, outside the cabinet, I don't know how many people envy Lord Nanyang. The integrity of the scholars has always been like this, and it is relatively flexible......
If it is a matter of principle or policy, then no one will take Nan Yang's words to heart, and if you should fight, the queen mother will be the queen mother, I'm afraid you won't succeed? The problem is that now we are talking about the emperor's family affairs, and it is a matter in the harem, which cabinet minister is willing to offend the queen mother for such a trivial matter that has nothing to do with vital interests? As we all know, the emperor often consults the Empress Dowager on military affairs, and the Empress Dowager is still involved in politics. provoked the old man's grudge, a word at a critical moment, who knows if his career will be affected because of this?
The meaning of the old man is vividly reflected through Nanyang's words: it is okay to say that it is okay to make a fuss about the prince's life experience.
The imperial argument is a common thing in internal meetings, and the emperor will not be condemned for this, and has always listened quietly with a smile. But as soon as Lord Nanyang's words came out, the emperor's face was obviously distorted, and after a while, he shouted to disperse. After the meeting, Wang Jin came to Wenyuan Pavilion, and asked the ministers to discuss how to deal with this abolished matter.
This is obviously urging the ministers to hurry up and express their attitude, but it is really hard to say how to express this state, how to get it after the abolition, is the emperor not counting it? What he lacks now is a mouthpiece, but who will open it? Dong Yang seemed to be very supportive of Sun Guifei and the crown prince just now, but as soon as Nan Yang spoke, he didn't squeak.
Looking at Wang Jin's attitude again, it is also a mystery, the ministers did not speak, he did not urge, just stood there, and the intention of perfunctory responsibility was very obvious. Several ministers are prime minister-level figures, so they will always look at their faces, right? This look makes it clear: just like the rumors she received in private, the queen mother was dissatisfied with the re-establishment of the abolition, although she couldn't stop it, but she didn't seem to approve of letting Sun Guifei take the throne.
Your own mother and son have different opinions on this matter, and outsiders should not intervene. Mother and son have no overnight feud, who would be stupid enough to come out and offend the queen mother for the emperor at this time?
Lord Xiyang coughed, drawing everyone's attention, and he asked Wang Jin very kindly, "I don't know if the queen is on the table, and she is sick...... Is it really hard to get sick? ”
Ask privately, this is called probing the inner curtain, and the sin is not small. Asking openly is to care about the queen's phoenix body, no one has any meaning to Xiyang's approach, everyone looks at Wang Jin with hopeful eyes, very expectantly.
Wang Jin also coughed, and said as if authentically, "Niangniang has indeed been bedridden since she had a miscarriage last year, although it has improved recently, but ......"
But what, didn't say anything, you can make up for it yourself.
Lord Dongyang made the third person who coughed, "This matter is very important, you can't be cautious, and Bixia can't be in a hurry, you must know that the world is big, and there are many urgent tasks every day, and the general affairs are even more heavy." It seems that this matter can be postponed a little, and we still have the excerpt of the withdrawal of the army from Jiaozhi to see with you......"
Very good, he fought for everyone and Wang Jin to get down the stairs, and everyone found an excuse, so they happily went to their own games. - Actually, he also said it well, how many folds and how many things have to be dealt with in a day? It was time for a few people to eat at noon, which was the end of the morning's brainstorming.
The cabinet ministers have a meal, eat a freshly made Langxia meal, when the weather is cold, take a hot one, to say how delicious it is, there is no one, after all, the stove is not very much. Unlike in the Tang Dynasty, the Zaifu did not have a hard requirement to eat together, and the old qualifications of high and powerful positions such as Lord Shoufu Xiyang, there was a room in the Wenyuan Pavilion dedicated to him for meals and lunch breaks, and the rest of the people got together to finish eating, you can take a walk to eat, and you can also go to the back for a lunch break, the place here is small, but there is no separate room to sleep.
Lord Nanyang usually does not take a nap, and after eating, he goes to 'walk a hundred steps after a meal, and live to ninety-nine', circling around Wenyuan Pavilion, and sometimes going to the nearby small garden to take a leisurely stroll. He had no friends in the cabinet, and he had always been alone, happy and quiet. But today is different, Lord Xiyang wants to be his companion, and he also goes out to relax.
What kind of stuffiness is this, everyone knows in their hearts - there will be no withdrawal of troops in the afternoon to act as a buffer zone. Master Jin didn't pay attention to it at all, closed his eyes and went to sleep in the back room - he was going to Ningxia on a business trip tomorrow, and he was lucky to avoid it.
As for Dong Yang, he smiled contemptuously, looked at the backs of the two Yang adults, and muttered softly that he didn't know anything, then turned over and worked the case, and he didn't know what was so anxious.
The two Yang adults went out for a walk, and the first stick of incense was really just a walk, Nanyang was in prison for ten years, and he sat out of a taciturn temperament, and he couldn't knock out a fart with a few sticks, if Xiyang didn't speak, he could not speak for a day.
"Hongji." Xiyang has no intention of competing with him at all, he is sixty-two years old this year, his energy is a little lacking, he doesn't sleep after eating, and he is so sleepy in the afternoon that he can't be a director. At this time, he yawned as he walked, "So, the rumors are true?" ”
Wenyuan Pavilion is in the imperial city, very close to the inner palace, and in the distance is the palace wall full of shadows, which is surrounded by thousands of palace maids - also called Duren, that is to say, walking out from here, the straight line is not more than a thousand meters is the residence of the concubines, such a close distance, what news can't flow out? The prince has been established, and now it will be a hundred days, and the biological mother on the jade has not yet been written, and there is an extra concubine in the palace...... These things are different from who the emperor sleeps and who doesn't sleep, and they can't be hidden from the ministers. But what exactly happened, unless someone is willing to tell you a story, the ministers can only guess. After the Yulu Rebellion, the current eunuchs mentioned internal affairs, all like a gourd with a saw-mouthed mouth, it would be good to leak a little wind, but if you want to explain the reason in detail, you must not.
"Rumors...... "Nanyang was bored for a long time." Much more. ”
Xiyang had no choice, so he made it clear, "Nowadays, I often sing "Tanuki Changzi". ”
Nan Yang smiled rarely, "I heard that in the old dynasty, there is a female middle school Yao Shun in the palace." ”
actually matched with Xiyang.
The pair is not neatly matched, but the meaning is obvious enough. The female Zhongyao Shun, who exemplifies the history of the Song Dynasty, describes the Empress Dowager Gao. She has always been disgusted with her grandson's biological mother, Concubine Zhu, and throughout her life, Concubine Zhu has not been given the throne. The treatment was also pressed by the queen several times, and even the son was raised by the queen mother's side, and he didn't have too deep feelings with his biological mother.
The attitude of the Queen Mother, Xiyang is quite sure, but now it is only further confirmed, he asked, "Only Hou Cheng is sick, and there is no master in the palace......"
Lord Nanyang smiled slightly, "Immediately become virtuous." ”
Xiyang frowned, and he glanced south, a little incredible. "It's not that I mean—"
"Brother Shiqi," Lord Nanyang patted Xiyang on the shoulder, "It's a bit of a look, everything in the inner palace, let's wait and see what happens." Why bother talking about the family affairs of the master? ”
The relationship between the two is not very close, but Nan Yang's tone is very sincere - speaking of which, although the three ministers of the cabinet now have disagreements and struggles, they are not life and death, and Nan Yang has the least prestige and is the most excluded in Su Rili......
The abacus in Xiyang's mind has been crackling more than a thousand times, and the steps under his feet are becoming more and more dignified, he smiled to himself, and even said, "Look, look!" ”
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but smile, "I don't know Mianren, what do you think at this time." ”
Nan Yang has always been steady and silent, but at this time he was a little emotional, he pouted contemptuously, "I look at Mian Ren, and I only speculate in my life." However, he is full of ingenuity, and the master is more blinded, and now the debate between good and evil is just a golden stone, and watch him act. ”
The touchstone, whose eye is the color to fall? Nanyang and Dongyang were originally in the same year, and it is said that the relationship is the most intimate, but Dongyang was proud early, and when Nanyang was still in prison, he was already a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he was proud to go in and out, and he didn't know how many people he offended. It seems that Nanyang is also among the people who have been offended.
Xiyang didn't speak, just smiled - he was really a little sleepy.
In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Jin really came again with an edict, and re-mentioned the matter of the abolition, this time, Lord Dongyang came to the heart, stroked his sleeve pocket, and said that "the minister has a book", so he handed a piece of music to Wang Jin. - Everyone squinted their eyes, and saw the neat pavilion on the top row, and the words "queen" and "twenty articles" were shocking.
It was only noon, and twenty of the queen's faults were brewing, Lord Dongyang really deserved to be a genius who relied on Ma Qianyan, Lord Xiyang and Lord Nanyang glanced at each other, and they were both silent. Even Wang Jin seemed to be shocked by Dongyang's shamelessness, took the piece without saying a word, and turned to leave.
Everyone continues to work. Lord Jin glanced at Dongyang from time to time, and then at Xiyang, a little puzzled.
It didn't take long for Wang Jin to come back.
Bixia said: "He looks blank and can't see joy and anger." "Wait for the hurry to negotiate a charter, Yang Rong don't talk nonsense anymore, there are gods in your head, I am ashamed of you when I read these words."
Of course, the emperor has a lot of spoken words, but it is still rare to be so polite. Lord Dongyang's face was red and white, and he stood up and asked for guilt. Wang Jin waved his hand to stop, and said, "Bixia has a saying: don't play false anymore, it's good to gather and disperse, the queen is sick, let her have a good life and recuperate, how to deal with it, and the charter comes out." ”
The emperor's attitude is now very clear, Lord Xiyang hesitated for a moment, and his tone loosened a little, "That is ...... so"
Wang Jin glanced at him, and when he saw that Lord Xiyang stopped talking, he turned around and went back to Wenhua Palace.
Not for a while, the West Yang was called alone. The day after tomorrow, he summoned the cabinet ministers and the ministers who took care of their lives to enter, but Dongyang said that he was ill and could not attend the meeting.
Three days later, on the grounds that the queen was sick and resigned from the above table, she was allowed to retire to Chang'an Palace, called Jingci Immortal, eating and living, as usual.
Hu Hou was abolished without fault, the government and the opposition were shaken, and there were many people in the court who folded up for Hu Hou, but they all stayed in the middle and did not send it. There are also slanderous remarks against the cabinet, and all kinds of strange phenomena are just a few.
However, Lord Dongyang also gradually recovered, and he was waiting for a suitable signal to return to the cabinet, just like almost all the ministers of the court, holding a book in his hand, waiting to hand it over.
After the emperor abolished Empress Hu, he did continue to move, and he rewarded the families of Hu, Sun, He, Xu, Luo, Wu and other concubines in the inner palace, among which Sun Guifei's family received slightly more than the rest of the concubines. Lord Dongyang's confidence is also getting stronger and stronger, and he is waiting for the expected fireworks to go off, so that he can make a comeback with just the right moment. ——was reprimanded unceremoniously by the emperor, although Lord Dongyang was not emotional, but no matter how you say it, you have to be a little scruple and find a suitable time.
It's just that left and right, Lord Dongyang waited strangely, waited in a hurry, and didn't wait for the expected letter.
- British Gong Zhang Fu, there is no doubt that he is now the number one lord and magnate in the court, not to mention anything else, only his family background, qualifications, merits, and ability, who else in the court can compare with him? Whether it is to support the emperor or to ask the crown prince, he must be the first to be on the table, and that is called justification. Now that the queen is abolished, if you want to succeed the concubine - in the eyes of most courtiers, the concubine gave birth to a prince and has always been favored, if you don't set up a concubine at this time, who will appoint it? - If he is not on the table, who will dare to compete with him?
But the British public he just doesn't go to the table, he goes to court, sees things, his body is very strong, and he doesn't seem to have any mental problems, but it seems that most people don't live in a shijie, when the whole shijie is looking forward to him, the British public is an old man...... He just doesn't go on the table.
That's it for him anyway, what can you do with him? What can you do with him?
Lord Dongyang was confined at home and meditated for a long time, and the music in his hand was held back like this, he found a suitable auspicious day for the zodiac, quietly healed, and went back to duty.
Lord Xiyang continued to be his first assistant if he had nothing to do, and asked about the progress of the construction of Chang'an Palace from time to time.
Lord Nanyang continues to be his invisible man.
On the way to Ningxia on a business trip, Mr. Jin was extremely comfortable.
The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother sat in the Qingning Palace and hugged a little bit - after a few months, a little bit bigger, she can already walk, and she will babble a lot of things that are out of tune.
"Dot, do you want to be a mother?" The Queen Mother pinched her lotus-like arms, and she couldn't let go of her hands - a cat will have feelings for a long time, and the Queen Mother has not taken children for a long time, except for the emperor, the children behind her are taken care of by her mother most of the time. It wasn't until she became the queen mother that she really had time to take care of her children, and she really had the heart to enjoy the process. Luckily, she caught up with the Queen Mother's first wave of emotional vacuum.
A little babbling, "Mother! Mother! ”
The Queen Mother gently pinched her little nose again, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed, she took a sip of incense on her face, and half complained, "It's a pity that we don't fight for our mother's anger, mother's kindness and daughter's filial piety, this is not a mother's kindness, we have to do our filial piety, how old are we to be a little bit?" ”
She played with her forehead against her forehead for a while, and then sighed leisurely, "But no matter what, that's also our little mother, isn't it?" If my mother doesn't come out, I'm panicked, isn't it? ”
It wasn't until she lost her patience and struggled to get off the ground to play by herself that the Queen Mother half-stretched and returned to her normal tone.
"Go ahead and arrange it." She motioned to Nan Yima, her tone slightly colder. "—It's time to come back, and look at what happens to this Yong'an Palace while she's gone."
Nanyi's heart jumped: It seems that the Queen Mother also has a little hatred for Concubine Zhuang......
"Slave, let's go look for medicine." On the face, she really didn't have the slightest abnormality, and she agreed normally. "It will be arranged properly, please rest assured that the old lady."
So, in March, the fourth daughter of the emperor was infected with the epidemic and 'sick'.
The author has something to say: Xiao Xu is still naïve compared with the Queen Mother......
