Chapter 400: A Letter from Home
Song Jiang was embarrassed to look at other people's private messages, and hurriedly excused himself: "My brother is ashamed of my brother, that is, it is a family letter, how can my brother trespass?" Can't! Can't! ”
Zhao Ji smiled and said: "Since it is a family, how can you say two words!" Brother Xian is afraid of what others will say, right? The virtuous brother is dedicated to the country and the people, and he is clear in his brother's heart. Let you read the letter so that you can understand the content of the letter, so that you can plan for the future development of the country, and there is no other intention. ”
Song Jiang shirked again and again, but Zhao Ji insisted, so he had to open it and look at it. After reading the letter, Song Jiang was greatly moved, and Zhao Ji resolved the contradiction between the imperial court and the autonomous region as soon as he made a move, and in the letter, he put himself in the shoes of the people and considered it more.
Once upon a time, this merry emperor only knew how to have fun, and he didn't care about the suffering of the world. Now I have experienced the ruin of the country and the death of the family, and I have experienced the suffering of the people, and I have suddenly awakened to the people.
In the letter, Zhao Ji first talked to his son about a few family routines, and then compared the differences between the lives of the people in the autonomous region and other prefectures and counties, and hoped that he would be a monarch who saved the common people and let the people live a prosperous life.
Then he used more and more harsh words, saying that now he should work hard to build the country, and not listen to slander and isolate the autonomous region. The autonomous region has always been an inseparable part of the Great Song Dynasty, and the authority of the autonomous region is evidenced by the national letter signed by him, which is in line with the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, and there should be no hostility.
Now he should send someone to the autonomous region to repair the credentials, and the autonomous region will definitely recognize the legal status of the Jianyan court, and at the same time pay a lot of taxes to Lin'an. And the killing of the scholar doctor and the person who wrote the book is contrary to the ancient teachings of the ancestors, and it is not what a clean emperor should do, immediately release Li Gang, bury Ouyang Che and others, and write an edict to apologize to the people of the world.
If he insists on going his own way, he will definitely be restored in the autonomous region, and send a document to all prefectures and counties to cancel Zhao Gou's legitimate throne.
In the end, he also said that he was doing well in the autonomous region, and the children did not have to worry about him, and if they really missed him, they would work hard to govern the country, and when the country was rich and the people were strong, he would go to Lin'an to see him.
The tone was slightly reproachful, it seems that Zhao Ji was fooled by his eldest son once, and he remembered it for a long time, and he penetrated Gaozong's intention to put him under house arrest.
After reading the letter, the two continued to drink and talk, and the teacher was furious next to her, she was still afraid that the two of them would have a knot that could not be untied, and she didn't want her worry to be superfluous.
After drinking for a while, Zhao Ji was a little upset, and said to Song Jiang: "If the virtuous brother encounters friction with the court in the future, just think that it will be a shield in the name of the brother!" ”
Song Jiang didn't understand what this meant, and Zhao Ji continued: "It's enough to have a teacher for my brother and a teacher in this life!" What can you do if you are prosperous and rich, and the power is overwhelming, in the end it is just a dream. Thank you for entrusting me with my teacher, and I will live up to my teacher in this life. If Brother Xian feels irritable, how about my daughter Roufu marrying you as a concubine? ”
Song Jiang was embarrassed, it seemed that Zhao Ji knew about the matter between him and his teacher, and when he heard that Zhao Ji was going to marry his daughter to him, he couldn't help blushing and hurriedly said, "How is it possible?" You and I are brothers, and you let me marry your daughter and mock me? But I see that Roufu is not small, and it is time to tell him about an in-law. Huachen is still unmarried, and has always been with me, I know him very well, but Huachen is born in cloth, and I am afraid that it is not right to be in the same household as the emperor. ”
Zhao Ji sighed faintly when he heard this: "When the capital was broken, all the doors were imprisoned by the captives, and when life was better than death, most people secretly complained about their royal identity in their hearts, if they were civilians, how could they have the sins of today." It can be seen that the noble identity is just a ring of vanity hanging over people's heads, which cannot withstand eating and drinking, cannot prevent disasters, and may become the source of disasters. Now that he is out of prison, how superficial and ridiculous it will seem to show off his noble status! I'm an ordinary person, my daughter is not the emperor, what's wrong with the family, everything is in charge of the virtuous brother! ”
Song Jiang sighed secretly, time is a carving knife, when everything that does not belong to you is shaved off, a real self will appear, and people who have not experienced the pain of that knife will not realize this. Unexpectedly, a catastrophe made a gentleman understand everything and become a real person. He let go of his power, his glory, and the dignity of the emperor, and perhaps the only thing he didn't let go of was his love for Master Li.
Zhao Ji, you are most qualified to have this love from the teacher!
Ginger is still old and spicy!
After reading his father's letter, Zhao Gou couldn't help but sigh, although the north and south are separated, his careful eyes seem to know everything about his father, and what he said in the letter is like seeing it himself.
Alas! Read it
It seems that you can only follow his instructions, otherwise you may lose a big one.
Because of that threat-like sentence, it has been circling in Zhao Gou's ears: "If you insist on going your own way, my father will definitely be restored in the autonomous region, and a document will be issued to all prefectures and counties to cancel your legitimate throne." ”
Knowing a son is better than a father.
Zhao Ji slapped Zhao Gou's life, so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe, and he only trembled in his heart.
The throne is really weird, when Zhao Gou didn't want to get it before, he didn't bother to think about it, and then when he had hope to get it, he thought about it for a while, now that the imperial power is in his hands, he doesn't want to let go at all, whoever wants to take it will take someone's life.
With such a big matter, Zhao Gou couldn't make up his mind alone, he had to negotiate with his think tanks Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan. Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan were even more afraid that Zhao Gou would lose the throne, in that case they would not be prime ministers, and after reading the letter, they reached a consensus, and they got off the donkey and resolutely implemented the instructions of the emperor.
Because this letter is Zhao Ji's hole card, the hole card can only be shown once, and it will not work next time.
As long as the Jianyan court and the autonomous region repaired the credentials again, and they handed over the taxes to the state treasury, it proved that the autonomous region had recognized the legitimacy of the imperial court.
If Zhao Ji is restored again, he will be a rebellion, so following the instructions of the Emperor Taishang now is to cut off his path to restoration. And doing so will also let the people of the world see that Zhao Gou obeys filial piety and is an out-and-out filial son, and at the same time, the high taxes of the autonomous region can also allow them to spend time and drink freely.
Zhao Gou was ecstatic after listening to the analysis of the two, it is good to have a few ministers, and any tricky matter can be solved. If that's the case, why should he think so hard about bringing the Emperor Taishang to the south of the Yangtze River, just rest wherever it's cool, and you won't affect my throne.
However, doing so will also discredit Zhao Gou, and the emperor must be kept out of the matter, and the edict cannot be written, but someone must be responsible for this bloodshed.
Wang Yuan, the general who ordered the arrows to be released to the people, was fully responsible, and he privately ordered the arrows to be released without permission, causing casualties among the people and damaging the reputation of the imperial court.
The dead and injured people are given a certain amount of economic compensation, and scholars with literary talents can also enter Taixue to study exceptionally.
Ouyang Che and the other four were patriotic, but their approach was too extreme, angering Long Yan and besieging the palace, which had already violated the laws of the Great Song Dynasty before they were punished.
Today, Ouyang Che and other four people are posthumously gifted to the secret pavilion, and their descendants are hereditary, and their work "Piao Ran Ji" is also allowed to be published publicly.
At the same time, no matter whether the Emperor wants to come to Lin'an or not, the appearance of invitation still has to be made, and the invitation team is indispensable, so that the people of the world can see the emperor's filial piety.
Zhao Gou was even happier when he heard it, and even called it a good idea. Wang Boyan also said that the autonomous region should not be allowed to go unchecked, and that the autonomous region must be restricted and secretly stumbling on Song Jiang. He promised King Xin the pastor of the capital, and Zong Ze promised the deputy prime minister to let him contain the autonomous region and cause some trouble to Song Jiang.
Zhao Gouyan obeyed, so he sent Li Gang, welcomed the emperor, and went to the autonomous region to repair the national letter of the three groups of people into one body, and marched towards the autonomous region with great momentum. At the same time, the capital also made a lot of fancy articles, and the people who didn't know what was going on began to be grateful to His Majesty, but they didn't know that this was just a superficial article.
And Wang Boyan secretly laughed again, the emperor was the gun in his hand, and he unknowingly stabbed his political opponent. Geng Nanzhong is the first, Wang Yuan is the second, who will be the third? It is not known, but it must be that whoever stands in his way is the third, unable to escape, and was shot while lying down.
