Chapter 54: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake (1)
"Official ......" A eunuch cautiously walked to Zhao Zhen, who looked a little wrong, and reported softly: "Guozijian speaks directly, Tianzhang Pavilion serves Wang Zhu Fuge to ask for the right ......" "Do you see it or not?" ”
"Nope!" Zhao Zhen waved his hand a little irritably.
The eunuch bowed his head and bent down, about to give the order, but only halfway through, he heard the helpless voice of the official: "Let's see it......"
"Otherwise, in this month's Zishantang Storytellery, Mr. Xiao Wang will have to talk at length again......"
"I'm also cocooning myself......" Zhao Zhen laughed helplessly at himself.
This storytelling office was established by him in the fourth year of Jingyou's edict, and the original intention was just to create an image.
But who knows, the civil officials actually took this matter seriously.
Every month, the scholars will gather in the Miying Pavilion and Yanyi Pavilion of Zishantang to tell him about the chaos in ancient and modern times, discuss the gains and losses of the country's employment and government, and criticize the ruling government by the way.
When encountering hot spots, then collectively change the outlet, and talk non-stop.
What can Zhao Zhen do?
I have to stick to the decisions I made while crying.
Of course, that is, this official has a good temper, and if Taizu and Taizong are replaced, I am afraid that the bachelors will lose a few teeth every month.
Not long after, a civil official wearing a scarlet robe came to Zhao Zhen and paid a big salute: "Weichen Guozijian speaks directly, Tianzhang Pavilion serves the system, and the special scarlet silverfish bag minister pays a visit to Your Majesty!" ”
Looking at the righteous and awe-inspiring Tianzhang Pavilion attendant in front of him, Zhao Zhen sighed helplessly, and then asked, "What is the matter with Mr. Xiao Wang's entry into the palace today?" ”
Wang Zhu's father is Wang Li, the most famous calligrapher in the contemporary literary world, there is no one!
With a single hand, the world admires it, and even the great nobles of the Liao State also ask for its ink treasure.
And Wang Zhu, as his son, not only has calligraphy been passed down by his father, but his knowledge is extremely profound.
Otherwise, it would not be his turn to speak directly for the prince of the country, and the courtiers would not have pushed Wang Zhu out to fight Lin Yu last year.
Because Wang Zhu is really strong in learning!
Not to mention, the book "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", which has been lost since the Eastern Han Dynasty, was discovered and rearranged by this Wang Zhijiao in the collection of books in the pavilion and compiled as "Jin Kui Yaolu".
As a result, Wang Zhu and Nai's father are called 'big and small kings' by the world in contemporary times.
And this Mr. Xiao Wang has always been known for his uprightness.
Not being afraid to say the wrong thing is his biggest characteristic!
Every month, Miying Pavilion and Yanyi Pavilion give lectures, and Wang Zhu has the loudest voice, the highest tone, and the most difficult.
Zhao Zhen had a headache when he saw him, if he couldn't meet, it was best not to meet.
At this moment, Wang Zhu still has no scruples in front of the king, he kowtows and bows: "Weichen heard that Jiangning Jiedu has made his wife Youxian County Jun Ren frequently in and out of the palace recently, and has friends with nobles, and often stays in the palace until the twilight ......of the day."
"What is this the work of a courtier?"
"Your Majesty!" Wang Zhu bowed righteously and awe-inspiringly: "Since the Tang Dynasty, the country's troubles are nothing more than feudal towns, clans, ministers, and friends!" ”
Zhao Zhen had no choice but to say again and again: "I know...... I see...... Aiqing is right, I will carefully order someone to investigate this matter! ”
is going to choke Wang Zhu's tirade in his throat like this.
But how could Wang Zhu easily let this official succeed?
He stubbornly puffed up his chest and refused to give up, but raised his voice and said impassionedly: "Your Majesty, in the Spring and Autumn Period, there is Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan, and the ancestor Zhuoran saw his story, and knew that the defense of the Xiao Wall was worse than that of the feudal town, so he prevented the slightest slight, set a system, and restrained the clan, so as to make it clear that the upper and lower are respectful and inferior to the kings and ministers!" ”
"The real temple is in the day, King Jing is young and ignorant, sitting and watching the maid set fire, the real temple hears it, and punishes the big precept, so he is demoted to the king of Duan, cutting the Wuxin Festival, chasing outside the palace, and selecting the people of the Qingming Festival to supervise it, King Jing then woke up, changed the past, and the virtuous name was broadcast in the world......"
"And King Jing, the brother and sister of Emperor Zhenzong! If Your Majesty turns a blind eye, the minister is afraid that the next day, the disaster will start in the palace, and it will be too late to regret it! ”
For civil officials, there are three things they absolutely do not want to see.
First, women interfere in politics, and eunuchs and relatives abuse power.
Second, the clan is presumptuous, interfering in national affairs, and even watching the unification.
Third, the power of the ministers is dominant, the king is elevated, and the orders come from the ministers.
Because, history has already told every reader, what will be the fate of such a dynasty?
The death of the country is only light.
If you die in the world, you can't regret it!
The lessons of the Han and Tang Dynasties cannot help but make these people vigilant and frightened.
And now, although Zhao Yuanfen's matter looks small, there is not even any evidence that the Jiangning Jiedu envoy really has the intention to watch the unification.
However, the signs are already emerging.
Confucianism never talks about any evidence in these matters.
Convicting with the original heart, regardless of the heart, is what they have always done.
Otherwise, how did Fan Zhongyan and Lu Yijian get out of Bianjing City together back then?
Fan Zhongyan's crime is called a friend, and Lu Yijian's crime is that he formed a party for personal gain and appointed cronies.
And there is no evidence for these two things, they are just made up by other people's brains.
And for civil officials, brain supplements are enough.
Therefore, it is logical that Fan Zhongyan degraded the place, and Lu Yijian dismissed Qingzhou.
Zhao Zhen's ears have always been very soft, and he was easily moved by the words of civil officials.
Now, it's the same.
After all, now, it is not only Wang Zhu who impeached Zhao Yuanfen, but also his close minister Lin Yu, Prime Minister Lu Yijian and the governors have also written books to talk about this matter, and they are worried one by one.
He thought about the experiences and encounters of Zhao Yuanfen's father and son, if he didn't have any thoughts in his heart, it would be a hell!
It's just that this official family has a very gentle temperament and temper.
He is unwilling to add to the guilt of his subordinates, and he is even more unwilling to hurt the harmony of the clan, since the pro-government, the prime minister, the ruling party, and the privy councilors, even if they poke a hole in the sky, his biggest punishment is only to dismiss the official.
Just like last year, Zhang Shixun and Wang Wei threw the pot at each other, if Taizu, Taizong or even just Zhenzong were replaced, even if these two ministers could keep their heads, I am afraid they would not be able to keep their official positions and words.
However, Zhao Zhen only dismissed these two after all.
Even after Zhang Shixun gave his honor, he posthumously presented the Taifu, named Deng Guogong, and promoted his official to the secretary of the Criminal Department.
Therefore, at this moment, although Zhao Zhen also doubted his cousin in his heart, he couldn't bear it after all, so he tentatively discussed it with Wang Zhu: "In this case, how about ordering Jiang Ning Jiedu to move to Xijing and make Deng Guogong strictly restrain him?" ”
Wang Zhu was unmoved: "Your Majesty's punishment, how is it different from a reward?" ”
What is Xijing?
The most prosperous, chic and romantic place in the Great Song Dynasty!
Otherwise, why did the ministers and relatives of the nobles rush to Xijing?
"Then ......" Zhao Zhen scratched his head: "I ordered King Jing to come to the Jiangning Jiedu Embassy in person, proclaim the law of the ancestors, and order the Jun of Youxian County to enter the Chongzhen Zisheng Monastery for meditation, and he will not return home without a will?" ”
Chongzhen Zisheng Monastery is a place built by the Zhao officials for those concubines, clan girls, and women who have made mistakes, and is specially used to face the wall and think about it or become a monk.
Because Emperor Taizong's eldest princess Chen used to become a nun here, it is also called the Seven Princesses' Courtyard.
Wang Zhu listened, knowing that this was probably the limit of what this official could do.
Therefore, he didn't dare to force it any longer, so as not to add to the painting, so he bowed and said: "Your Majesty Fu Wei can do the work of Weifu!" ”
