Chapter 1255 Family Temple

Wang Jue's heart was full of bitterness.

The reason why Zhao Ji made him the prime minister was to complete this glorious and arduous task through this obedient "three decrees".

However, Wang Jue thinks that since he has made such a big sacrifice, then he should be re-elected for one term, and it is logical to be from the same Zhongshu to do things in a peaceful manner, and to be shot by the left servant of the Shangshu Sect, which is the reward he deserves.

However, Su Song, Su You, the opponent is pressing step by step, why are there so many moths?

Cai did see Wang Jue's face full of sadness, knowing that his lobbying had worked, and lightly added the last code: "Yesterday, I accompanied Your Majesty to see the preface map of the Tang Liudian Dynasty, and Your Majesty pointed to the space of the Imperial Doctor and said, it is not available to Sima Jun." ”

"Him?!" Wang Qi was a little angry: "What else is going on with him?!" ”

Cai did also look worried: "The forces of the DPRK and China are now about three factions, one is the founder and supporter of the new law; One faction is the resistance and opposition to the new law; After Su Mingrun entered the court, there was another faction of neutrals and reformers. ”

"For the sake of the country's prosperity, Xianggong An Shi had no choice but to release the opponents to the foreign court, which offended the gang of people who died, Sima Junshi, is their party leader!"

"It's a pity that after An Shi Xianggong went, Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu, Lu Jiawen, Zhang Dian, there were many disagreements, and the same way fell apart, and then there were so many things, and the enmity between them became bigger and bigger, and the good situation was ruined."

"Su Mingrun's faction took the opportunity to rise, while encircling the old ministers from outside, while recruiting friends with the juniors who once followed An Shixianggong, and there were many people under him, and they were very prosperous."

"Now it seems that Your Majesty was bewitched by this son, and he actually moved the mind of using the three factions at the same time."

Wang Qi said: "What An Shi Xianggong did back then was indeed a little excessive, and the flaws of the new law did give people a handle, so it is no wonder that others attacked them." There is nothing wrong with Your Majesty's intentions. ”

Cai did smile and said: "Xianggong is magnanimous and elegant, but has Xianggong thought about it, if the three factions stand side by side with the court, who will adjust Zhou He?" ”

"We are like sugar, Sima Junshi and they are like vinegar, they taste like each other, and they can't be put in one place."

Cai Qu put away his smile: "But I know that Fang Zhiwei has a fish-flavored shredded pork, which is Su Mingrun's invention, which has both sugar and vinegar, and has a strong taste, which is quite popular in Bianjing City......"

Wang Jue is stupid, yes, if His Majesty wants to use the three factions at the same time, if the neutral faction has no strength, it will definitely be the target of the conservatives and reformers at the same time.

But what if the centrists are strong?

Conservatives and reformers themselves have irreconcilable contradictions, and can only rely on the neutral faction as a bridge and lubricant in the middle.

Only Su You has this qualification and ability.

At this moment, Wang Jue had already left behind Su You's kindness in cultivating his son, and felt that his IQ had been trampled on by Su You.

If it weren't for Cai Qu's timely reminder, once he obeyed His Majesty's wishes, the restructured court would basically have nothing to do with itself.

The time and place are favorable, and he will be monopolized by Su Mingrun, he is so deep and dangerous!

Now the question is, how do you deal with the fact that others have already done so many things on the sly?

Wang Qi was already sweating on his forehead, and he was playing these political tricks, and he was not the opponent of Su You, the little fox, at all, so he couldn't help but glance at Cai Qu, who was light and breezy, and coughed lightly: "This...... If Sima Junshi enters the court, I'm afraid you won't be at ease if you are upright, right? Is there any way to do it? ”

Cai Qu finally showed a sincere smile: "Xia Guan has been thinking about it for a long time, but he has gained a little. ”

"Oh? Hold on to it, come quickly. ”

Cai did said with a smile: "Actually, it's very simple, Sun Gu, Sima Guang, Wen Yanbo, Zhang Fangping and other old ministers have always advocated taking care of Western affairs. Ask Your Majesty not to go to war with Western Xia. ”

"As long as the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia really fight, even if Sima Guang receives the edict from the return dynasty, he will think that his proposition will not be approved by His Majesty, and he will definitely reject it."

"The key is that we all know that Your Majesty wants to fight this battle in your heart, so we will follow Your Majesty's will and support him to fight this battle."

"You don't understand what I mean...... Wang Qi couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart: "Sima Jun is really far away in Xijing, it's not the point, I mean ......"

"In the past few years, the world has been peaceful, the people are happy, and the court is peaceful." Cai did bow down and said: "Xianggong has made outstanding achievements, of course, he is the best choice for the left servant." Cai did want to consult with Xiang Gong for a few more years, and after the restructuring, he would definitely continue to follow Xiang Gong and help consolidate the good situation created by Xiang Gong. ”

This means that Wang Jue understands very well: "There is a holding being, the affairs of the Zhongshu are in order, it is Wang Zuozhicai, after the restructuring, His Majesty and the old man must rely on more." ”

This is to talk about a good business, Cai did say: "Xianggong, it is better to invite Your Majesty, the Su family, the son is virtuous, now Su Song is the governor of the political affairs, Su You Guida Guogong, it can be described as a grand event, and the family temple should be given to praise it." ”

Wang Jue was a little surprised: "This is too Chonglong, right?" Since the beginning of my dynasty, only Wenlu Gong has been given a family temple, and his Su family can afford it? It's not ...... Winged with the Tiger? ”

Cai did say: "Yuanfeng reform, Your Majesty started with the ritual system, this is a strategic move. ”

"The family temple system was extremely popular in the Tang Dynasty. After the five generations of mourning, the great clan was almost wiped out, and the system was difficult to apply to the Great Song Dynasty. ”

In the first year of Qingli, Zhang Fangping suggested that the system of the Tang Dynasty could be imitated, and the civil and military ministers who had meritorious service to the imperial court should be allowed to build a family temple to reward 'merit'. The recipient's own 'merit' must meet certain criteria before it can be bestowed. ”

However, the family temple system in the Tang Dynasty has long been lost, and the records are too unified. Zhang Fangping's performance is difficult to implement. ”

"It wasn't until nearly ten years later in the second year of Huang You that Prime Minister Song Zhen played again and asked the ceremonial officials to examine the family temple system."

"He believes that although Renzong opened up the establishment of family temples by officials in the court, the ceremonial officials did not sort out the feasible family temple standards in the Song Dynasty based on the old classics, and the sacrifices of officials in the court and China are still the same as those of the common people, and a distinction should be made."

Su Song, who was the Taichang Rite Institute at the time, was appointed to set the family temple system, and cited the "Tang Kaiyuan Ceremony" above two grades and four temples. Three products, three temples. Fourth, five products need to be knighted, three temples. Below the six grades, the provisions of the sacrifice in the bed, improved to the two grades above the Great Song Dynasty, four temples. More than five products, three temples. The following six products are sacrificed to the bed. ”

The five products are a hurdle in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, and the five products are up and down, not only have they jumped a lot of bits, but there are many, many differences.

For example, if hundreds of officials are killed, those who are above the third rank are called stingers, those who are above the fifth rank are called pawns, and those who are below the sixth rank are called dead.

After the family temple system was largely established, only Wen Yanbo applied for it and was approved.

This was thirty years ago. Wen Yanbo can't play, although he has qualifications, he still needs to be regulated by the detailed system, in case something goes wrong, it is a joke that shames his ancestors.

So he searched everywhere for the style of the family temple and the sacrificial rituals that could be followed, and finally found the old ruins of the family temple of the Tang dynasty Du You and imitated it.

It was not until the fourth year of Jiayou that the Wen family's family temple was really established, and Wen Yanbo asked Sima Guang to write the famous "Wenlu Gongjia Temple Tablet" for the family temple to record the beginning and end of his establishment of the family temple.

Later, after the genealogy was repaired, Su Song played again, thinking that "the ancient no sacrifice of the fourth generation", the previous system "not ancient", should absorb and learn from Su Xun, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu genealogy, the fifth temple said, that is, to worship the fifth generation of the first ancestor, high ancestor, great-ancestor, royal father, father.

It is suggested that the relationship between the official product and the number of temples should be: the consul of Wenchen and the martial minister of the festival to make the above sacrifice to the fifth generation, the official sacrifice of the civil and military promotion dynasty to the third generation, and the remaining sacrifice to the second.

When Su You arrived in the court, he also had a lively time.

Playing Zhao Ji, combining the temple with the ancestral hall.

If the descendants of later generations do not give strength, then the surrounding houses can also be emptied, or changed into a place for family discussions, and the temple is reduced to a "ancestral hall";

If the descendants give their strength and make a product of the dynasty, then they can arrange the empty house and promote the shrine to the "temple".

This design is very convenient and flexible, as long as the ancestors have been in power in this dynasty, reaching the level of building a temple, you can build a temple, but when the later generations sacrifice, you can choose a matching level according to the actual situation of the descendants.

The big temple shows the glory of the ancestors and the family; What determines the level is the number of houses where the ancestral god seat is placed.

It is allowed to have an empty house, which solves the embarrassment in the actual operation, and Zhao Ji also thinks it is very good, so he obeys it.

Wang Jue knew these things very well, but he didn't figure out what this matter had to do with the problem he wanted Cai Qu to solve.
