Chapter 1052: I see

"Chief Zheng, what's going on with the Yuequan Yin Society?" In the briefing of the secretariat, Zhao saw this Yin Society several times, and it has been very active recently, so he summoned Zheng Huchen into the palace to ask in detail.

"Your Majesty, the Yuequan Yinshe was established long before the restoration of the country, and in the past, only a few scholars and relict ministers gathered together to chant poems, but there were only a few people. This year, however, it has become more and more active, and the number has increased, and there are serving officials joining it, and the subordinates think that they should report it to His Majesty. Zheng Huchen replied.

"Can they do lawlessness?" Zhao asked again.

He knew that association in the Great Song Dynasty was nothing new, and Hangzhou was active in the Tongwen Society initiated by students, the West Lake Poetry Society initiated by scribes, the Legal Hua Society initiated by professional poets, the Bow and Crossbow Society initiated by samurai, the Horn Society initiated by sumo wrestlers, the Qiyun Society initiated by juju athletes, the Scarlet Green Society initiated by acrobats, the Eloquence Society initiated by storytellers, the Painting Leather Society initiated by shadow puppet artists, the puppet society initiated by puppet artists, the combing and shaving society initiated by barbers, the Taige Society initiated by architects, and the Qihua Society initiated by horticulturists. The Splendid Society initiated by tattoo enthusiasts, the Championship Club initiated by bow and arrow enthusiasts, the Yingluo Society initiated by martial arts enthusiasts, the Lotus Society and the Pure Industry Association initiated by Pure Land sect believers, the Lingbao Society and the True Martial Arts Association initiated by Taoist believers, and even the Doubao Society initiated by Mrs. Kuo and the rich ladies to offer to the Buddha is actually Bikuo, and the Cuijin Society is similar to an industry association initiated by prostitutes.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you were born in the Song Dynasty, no matter what status you have, what kind of work you do, and what hobbies you have, you should be able to find a club you like to join. In other words, the vast majority of assemblies are permitted, except that they must not disturb public order, and there is no need to apply to the relevant units in advance or report to the relevant units afterwards.

"Yin Society" is the general name of the literati assembly, the specific name is "word society", "poetry society", "literary society", "Jinxin Xiukou Society" and so on, the scale is smaller than the village society, the date of the assembly is not fixed, but the members who participate in the assembly are fixed, and often also set the "social covenant", that is, the rules of the assembly. Generally speaking, it is to discuss current affairs, recite poems and paint. But if you can get the attention of the secretariat, it will definitely not be easy.

"Your Majesty, because these people are a bit literate, and the people who join are all familiar with each other, and they often change the location of the meeting, it is difficult for the subordinates to send people to get close to each other, and it is impossible to know the details of what they are discussing." Zheng Huchen said.

"Since you haven't found out, why do you mention it repeatedly?" Zhao was a little puzzled. But he also knew that Zheng Huchen was thoughtful and not a person who guessed his degree, so it was even more strange to do so.

"Your Majesty......" Zheng Huchen didn't continue, but looked left and right.

"Let's all go down, talk here!" Zhao immediately understood what he meant when he saw that he wanted to speak, waved his hand to let everyone in the hall withdraw, asked him to sit down opposite the bookcase, and poured him tea with his own hands.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates are not suspicious, but not only courtiers have joined them, but there are also people in the palace who often participate in gatherings. The subordinates felt the need to report to His Majesty! Zheng Huchen sat down and said in a low voice.

"Oh, there are people in the palace involved?" Zhao frowned and said.

"Yes, the head of the Imperial Office not only participated, but also organized a party as a convener!" Zheng Huchen said.

"Well, who are the officials in the court?" Zhao's brows furrowed even tighter, and he asked after a moment's silence.

"There are Zheng Sixiao, the imperial historian, Xie Ao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhou Mi, the judge of Lin'an Mansion, who also participate from time to time, and there are still a few new officials and students." Zheng Huchen replied.

"There are so many officials involved, who is the head of the society, and who are the initiators?" Zhao said with some surprise. He will not restrict the interaction of officials, but he is most afraid of forming a party, which cannot but make him wary.

"Your Majesty, the Yuequan Yin Society was established by Fang Feng and Wu Wei after the fall of Lin'an, Xie Ao was hired as the selector, all three of them are quite prestigious in the local area, they retreated to the countryside, determined not to be a Mengyuan, often collect poems, the participants are very numerous, and they are quite influential among the scholars." Zheng Huchen replied, "Later, with Xie Ao's defection to the Xing Dynasty, the Yinshe gradually fell. After our dynasty recovered the south of the Yangtze River, some scholars in Lin'an re-established the Yinshe, still named Yuequan, but it was very different from before. There are many people who join, there are all kinds of characters, the original initiators Wu Wei and Xie Ao have all joined the office, presided over by Fang Feng, and the other two are only sometimes invited to participate, but they no longer participate in the affairs of the Yin Society. ”

"In this way, this society is no longer another society, nor is it just a poetry meeting friends in the past, nostalgic for the homeland." Zhao nodded and said. He didn't care about the scholars, chanting the wind and admiring the moon, discussing current affairs, and venting their complaints, but if the association had another purpose, even if it was a civil society, he couldn't ignore it.

"It is precisely that the Yinshe is now a complex staff, including relict ministers who have retired for many years, as well as people from outside, and many unsuccessful candidates have joined it after the imperial examination. The current officials of the DPRK and China are also involved from time to time, so they pay attention to it. After Chen Pu was invited to participate in Beijing this year, many officials also admired his name and secretly headed him, and they often criticized the government and discussed the current situation, and sometimes made disrespectful remarks, and his subordinates thought that the situation was getting more and more serious, so they reported it to His Majesty. Zheng Huchen said.

"Chen Pu refused to accept the edict to join the office, but he played in the Yin Society." Zhao smiled bitterly and shook his head lightly and said, "Who are the most active people among them?" "He knew that Chen Pu was a famous Confucian, with a great reputation in Jiangnan and good at ingenuity, and he wanted to edict him to preside over the 'Academy of Sciences', but he was politely refused.

Chen Pu was a noble person and thought he was learning the world, but he was pressed by His Majesty, and he felt that he had no face to mix in the court again. However, those people in the Yin Society are very respectful of it, and there are sycophants who hold and respect it, so they are naturally happy. Zheng Huchen chuckled.

Now the nominal head of the society, but also the patriarch of the Yin Society, Fang Feng, who is a native of Pujiang, Pozhou, once served as a literary artist in Rongzhou, and once lived in seclusion in Huashan after the fall of Jiangnan. There is also Zhang Yan, who is the sixth grandson of Zhang Jun, the hero of Nandu, who lives in Lin'an, and his family property was fired after the fall, although he was once called to go north to write the golden scriptures, but he can return to the south immediately. Since then, he has roamed Wuyue, sold divination for a living, and sang and made peace with Zheng Sixiao, Deng Mu and other remnants. ”

"Another money selection, this Wuxing people, Xianggong Jinshi was born, and has a reputation for being good at painting things, and Zhao Mengxu is known as Wuxing Eight Horses. Zhao Mengshun and others should be edicted, but Qian Xuan didn't care about the rise and fall of the Six Dynasties, squatted and opened the picture, and was willing to hide his hand-painted things to end his life; There are also people from Xie County, Jing Dingnian Jinshi, who was demoted to the Yuan during his tenure in Zhiyan Prefecture, and resigned a few years later and returned to his hometown, and the world has mixed reviews for it. After I returned to the court, I caused Zhishi, but I only took away his fame, confiscated the land, and did not put him to death, but he also had the pain of thinking about the country. There is also a Deng Mu, presumably His Majesty knows who he is! ”

"This Moon Spring Yin Society is really as you said, fairies, tigers, dogs, everything!" Zhao leaned back and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, although these people have all kinds of characters, they have some influence in the government and the opposition, and their subordinates are worried that they will do something unfavorable to the court, so it is better to ......" Zheng Huchen looked at the little emperor's face and said.

"No, we can't arrest people just because they complained, and besides, they can't make waves, so let's take a look. If there is really something unfavorable to the imperial court, it is not too late to do it! Zhao understood what Zheng Huchen meant, and waved his hand.

"In this way, the subordinates will strengthen surveillance and verify the evidence of their crimes!" Zheng Huchen nodded.

"I'd like to meet them in person and see who they are!" Zhao picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

"Your Majesty, the time and location of these people's opening are uncertain, and besides, if we rush to the door, they won't let us in." Zheng Huchen knew that the little emperor meant that he wanted to go out of the palace to play again, and he was quite troubled by this, so he said perfunctorily.

"What's so difficult about this, let's deal with it again!" Zhao leaned forward and said with a wicked smile.

"This ...... Your Majesty won't startle the snake! Zheng Huchen immediately understood that Ma Duanlin was a person from His Majesty's side, and he was from the Yin Society, so he could naturally grasp their whereabouts, and it would be okay to bring a few people in. But he still tried to stop him.

"There are very few people among them who know me, and how can a few soldiers who are powerless to restrain me!" Zhao didn't care about it......

…………

A few days later, a horse-drawn carriage drove out of the corner gate of the palace, the most common, the most common single-wheeled carriage, covered with a plain carport, and quickly blended into the flow of people on the royal street and headed south.

"Your opinion, how could today's poetry meeting be chosen in the temple?" There wasn't much space in the carriage, and the four people were a little cramped in it, Zhao asked.

"Childe, now that the weather is getting cooler, the lake is cold and cold, so I chose Qinglin Temple, where it is clean and there is a nunnery, and it is very convenient to eat and live." Ma Duanlin replied. Two days ago, His Majesty suddenly asked about the Tsukisen Ginsha, and said that he was very interested and wanted to go and see it. He was very embarrassed, and he didn't dare to refuse, and he happened to receive the news that there was a poetry meeting on Mu Xiu's day, so he informed His Majesty and had today's trip.

"Master Ma, can anyone who has met with His Majesty attend today?" Tan Fei asked. He had already asked before, but for the sake of caution, he confirmed again.

"Commander Tan, I have already asked, there are not many people who have met with Gongzi in the poetry meeting, even if most of the officials among them are not of high grade, and there is no chance to see Long Yan, several officials who have participated in the court meeting have been arranged to be on duty. However, what I am worried about is Deng Mu, who has met with His Majesty, but I am not sure whether he will come. Ma Duan said.

"It doesn't matter, although I met Deng Mu on the West Lake, I didn't reveal my identity, and even if I went, I didn't know my true identity." Zhao waved his hand.

"What Childe said is true, this time Childe is going as my son and nephew, even if he has doubts when he sees it, he won't ask more." Ma Duanlin couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the things on the West Lake that day, and thought about it.

"Deng Mu was so angry that day, I guess I don't remember the appearance of my son!" Wang De laughed beside him.

"That's not necessarily, I'm afraid it will be more impressive!" Tan Fei was a little worried.

"Hehe, Deng Mu was so angry with his son that he took off his clothes that day, even if he recognized his son, how could he recognize him with his face." Ma Duanlin laughed when he heard this.

"Bastard!" While a few people were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped, followed by the sound of the coachman's cursing.

"What's going on?" Tan Fei hurriedly lifted the curtain and asked.

"Leader, two guys galloped down the street and almost crashed into our vehicle!" The groom, who was also a guard, asked back.

"Well, be alert, don't hurry!" Tan Fei frowned and asked, but he was still relieved, he only brought two guards to act as grooms when he went out this time, and it would be troublesome if he was stuck in the road.

"Running through the streets, no one cares? How can it be good to hurt someone! Zhao was very angry.

"Childe, this matter has been investigated, and if it hurts, it will be punished according to the law!" Ma Duan said.

"Oh, there's one more in the law?" Zhao was a little surprised, wondering if there was a traffic law in this era.

"Childe, of course there is." Ma Duanlin said with a smile, "The "Song Criminal Rule" stipulates: In the streets and alleys of the city and among the people, those who walk the carriage and horses without reason will be flogged fifty; Those who kill or injure others for any reason shall be reduced by one degree; Those who kill or injure livestock shall be compensated for the reduced price. If there is a public or private person who wants to leave quickly, do not sit; Those who kill or injure others for any reason are considered to be negligent; Whoever kills or injures a person because of his horror and cannot be forbidden, shall be reduced by the second degree of negligence. ”

"Those who want to be quick in public and private affairs, 'public' means to be quick in official affairs, and to take the post post and serve the envoys; 'private' refers to those who need medical treatment and rush after people and take the carriage and horse, and do not sit; although there are public and private people who want to rush to the chariot and horse, because there are those who kill and injure people, they will be redeemed according to the law of negligence; and those who kill and injure others because they cannot be controlled by the power of horror shall be reduced by two degrees of negligence, and their copper will be ransomed, and each of them will be killed by the wounded and killed."

"I see!" Zhao nodded when he heard this.

Ma Duanlin saw that the little emperor seemed to be unclear, and explained in detail. Zhao Cai learned that the "walk" in the Tang and Song dynasties did not mean "walking", but referred to "sprinting", which was still retained in idioms such as "walking and watching flowers" and "thirty-six strategies, walking is the upper plan". "Horsewalking" means galloping or driving a horse.

"Without cause" means that there is no public or private emergency. "Official business" refers to public affairs such as urgent delivery of official documents, transmission of imperial orders, firefighting officers and soldiers, etc., which need to be hurried and not allowed to linger; "Private affairs" refers to personal emergencies such as reporting funerals, sending patients for treatment, and urgently chasing people, which should not be delayed. According to the interpretation of the laws of the Tang and Song dynasties, "the crowd is more than three people", and more than three people can be called "the public".

That is to say, the government of the Song Dynasty implemented a "speed limit" system for urban traffic, unless there is a public or private emergency, no one is allowed to ride a horse or drive quickly in the streets and alleys of the city and places where there are more than three pedestrians, otherwise, regardless of whether or not the pedestrian is injured, it is regarded as "dangerous driving", and the punishment of "flogging fifty" (spanking fifty small boards) is given. Just like speeding today, regardless of whether it caused an accident or not, the driver will be deducted points......
