Chapter 97: The Situation
There are officers and soldiers guarding outside, Tuen Nai is the cemetery of Emperor Song Ningzong, which has just been built, and it is still relatively new.
The incense was continuous, and many officials came to worship, Song Ci came to the destination, lit the incense wax, knelt down on the lin, and kowtowed three times.
"Wencheng Wenwu, the two of you should leave first, Song has something to say to the first emperor."
"Yes, my lord." They honestly went to the distance and waited for Song Ci to come out.
The ground coin has been burned out, Song Ci said: "First emperor, the minister is late, ten years ago, you and I met for the first time in the Xuande Palace, ten years later, it is already yin and yang, I have to sigh that time passes too fast."
"When the minister heard about the death of the emperor, he was even shocked, but life is as usual, no one can predict and stop it, everyone has a death, but it comes first and then comes.
"The first emperor's departure, it can be said that the Great Song Dynasty has handed over half of the country to Emperor Lizong, he is only eighteen or nineteen years young, I am afraid that he will not be able to find the problem among the ** ministers and thieves, in the current dynasty, Song alone knows, there are no less than ten, and the Great Song Dynasty is really difficult to keep."
"As early as before, the battle between Prime Minister Han Zhuxuan and Jin Ren has not been decided, I am afraid that after he is demoted, there is no one who can be qualified for the position of prime minister.
Song Ci took a deep breath, stood up from the ground and sat next to the mausoleum of Emperor Ningzong, and said helplessly: "About crickets, at this moment, not only Changting County, but even Jianyang, and other county towns have spread, can the emperor know the crisis left behind this cricket?"
"In these counties, including the prefect and the county, the common people are all playing, and over time, after you are like this, who else will defend the Great Song Dynasty? Defend this country?"
"The minister is not blaming the emperor for being dismissed, it's just that this Great Song Dynasty officialdom is too corrupt, and it has reached the point where it doesn't work, and the minister has gone to so many county seats, all of them are corrupt and bent the law, and over time, the people of the Great Song Dynasty will not be able to bear this oppression."
"They will rise up angrily, so that we will die without a place to be buried, the emperor, could it be that the ancestors worked hard to get from the Tang Dynasty are gone?"
Song Ci has been for a long time, he is also tired, his heart is even more tired, he has been a criminal officer for more than ten years, his body is not as good as day by day, this is all tired and incurable.
"Emperor, there are so many ministers today, I hope you know that you can bless the Great Song Dynasty, bless the thousands of people, Song will leave."
Song Ci turned around and left, Wencheng Wenwu was still on the side, and they immediately walked over, "My lord, how is it?" What did you and the emperor have?"
Song Ci said: "What else? It's just a complaint, so what else? Let's go, Wencheng Wenwu, let's rush to Lin'an now, and then go to the palace, Song has to meet this Song Lizong. ”
"Yes, my lord."
Outside, the three of them got into the car and left, and the carriage ran for a whole day, and came to Lin'an the next day, and then came to the outside of the palace.
At this moment, it was the time of the last dynasty, and the civil and military officials had been waiting here for a long time, and suddenly a new face came, they were very strange, and after a closer look, they found that it was Song Ci.
Lord Cao took the lead and walked over and sneered: "Isn't this the original criminal officer Song Ci, no, after being demoted to the magistrate, how can you still think of coming to the court?" Could it be that you don't know that you're just a seventh-rank official? Can't go to see the emperor at all?"
How could Song Ci not hear these words?
Lord Tang also came over at this time, and sneered: "I thought Song Tixing was a dragon, but I didn't expect it to be a worm, Song Tixing, I am really disappointed in you, you lost the two-year agreement, and you were demoted to the magistrate, but fortunately, the emperor finally gave you a bowl of rice to eat."
Song Ci looked at them coldly, "Lord Cao, Lord Tang, I didn't expect that after ten years of not seeing you, you are still in this position, disappointed, why, the Jin people didn't let you go over to be officials?"
They shouted, "Bold Song Ci, you actually spoke wildly, do you know who you offended with this sentence?" With this alone, the two of us can go to the emperor and play a copy of you, do you know?"
"However, I still have to thank Shi Jia She, if it weren't for him, how could Song be sentenced or sentenced at this moment, how could he become a magistrate?"
Song Ci watched coldly, not wanting to pay attention to it, there were all their people nearby, no matter how much they had, there was no need for them, and at the same time, there was no prime minister to speak for him.
The hour has come, and the civil and military officials have already stepped into the palace, and when Song Ci was about to enter, he was stopped, and a eunuch said: "Lord Song, you are only a Qipinzhi County, and you can't enter the palace, I'm sorry."
Song Ci had expected this a long time ago, but he was unwilling, he couldn't see the Great Song die at the hands of these people
Wenwu walked up, "My lord, we can't go in, what else can we do?" Could it be that you've been waiting here? This emperor will always have a way out of the palace!"
Song Ci immediately said: "This idea is good, but I will wronged the two of you, I have been running around with Song for ten years, I have really wronged you."
"My lord, where are you talking, if it weren't for you, the two of us probably wouldn't know where we went, so you don't have to say so much.
Song Ci nodded, and the three of them sat outside the palace, intending to wait.
At the same time, these civil and military officials also entered the interior of the Xuande Palace, and after a long time, with the arrival of Song Lizong, they immediately knelt down and said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
Song Lizong sat on the dragon chair, he had just become the emperor, he was very happy, and he didn't understand some human accidents at the moment, and he didn't know the problems that the Great Song Dynasty was facing.
"Everyone, love Qing Ping.
"Long live thanks." They stood up, and Lord Cao stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor has been buried at present, and the mausoleum has been sent to take care of it, the emperor doesn't have to worry too much, we have already done it for you."
Song Lizong said with a smile: "You have to work on your lords, come here, all the officials who are involved in this matter will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver per person to show their loyalty."
"Your Majesty." They are overjoyed, many people already feel that the opportunity to make a fortune has come, but compared with Song Lizong, the gap between Song Lizong and Song Ningzong is too big and too big.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we don't need to mention the matter of the former emperor, by the way, the adults from the Ministry of Industry are here? My current dormitory is in disrepair, so you can ask the treasury for some money to repair it. ”
"It's the emperor."
Someone jumped out, "The emperor really cherishes himself, and if the palace is broken, it must be repaired, otherwise if it collapses and presses the emperor, how can it be good?"
"Yes, everything is based on the emperor's dragon body, and the minister is in charge of the Ministry of Industry, and this matter must be handled for the emperor within half a year.
Song Lizong appreciated these words very much, and when he was about nineteen years old, he naturally focused on passing on the lineage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the first emperor has passed away, and I now want to know, what is the situation of the war between my Great Song Frontier and Jinrao?"
