Chapter 212: Panicked
Song Huizong arranged for Zhao Gou to take over the post of supervising the imperial history, he had his own plans, and Zhao Gou was also happy to do it, which was the result he wanted. For a long time, the Great Song Dynasty pursued the rule of literati, which was also effective, but also left many thorny problems, and only by fundamentally dealing with them can the Great Song Dynasty be preserved.
Zhao Ji is still the same Zhao Ji, but it is a little different, he was incompetent in the past, he didn't dare to act, he only knew that he was obsessed with calligraphy and painting, strange stones, and he became decisive, more courageous and courageous than his father Shenzong. Once upon a time, the Song Dynasty changed the law, so that the Song Dynasty regained its vitality and vitality.
The implementation of the Xining Reform Law has greatly increased the state's financial revenue, the social productive forces have developed tremendously, the area of cultivated land has increased by a large margin, the country has reached 700 million mu of cultivated land, the output per unit area has generally increased, the output of a variety of mineral products has been several times to dozens of times that of the Han Dynasty and the middle Tang Dynasty, the urban commodity economy has achieved unprecedented development, and even the combat effectiveness of the army has been markedly improved.
Song Huizong knew that the only way to change the situation in front of the Great Song Dynasty was to change the law, but he did not dare to make drastic changes, so as not to alarm the dissatisfaction of the courtiers. Since the founding of the Song Taizu, it is not a long-term solution to emphasize literature and suppress martial arts, but there is no way to change it, and the time is not ripe.
Now, Song Huizong finally can't wait, and is determined to change completely, even if the ministers oppose it, insist on going his own way, even if he violates the instructions of his ancestors. Song Huizong took all the responsibilities and Zhao Gou carried them out, just so that he could understand the official system of the Great Song Dynasty, understand the suffering of the people, and find a way.
"Brother Huang, do you really want Lao Jiu to be the supervisor of the imperial history?" Zhao seemed to appear beside Song Huizong at some point, and said in a straight voice.
Song Huizong nodded and said, "Supervising the imperial history is also a position given to him, and this is also something I decided after thinking about it for a long time." Only this is the most suitable official position for him, and only he can truly punish him severely, and only in this way can he grow. ”
However, Lao Jiu's power in the DPRK is unstable and his foundation is weak. I am worried that after serving as the Inspector of the Imperial History, with his style of acting, he will definitely take drastic actions, which will be even more feared by the officials. I'm afraid that at that time, it will be harmful to him and not beneficial! ”
"I believe he understands the point of doing this, and as for the ministers of the court, don't pay much attention to it. I have always been worried about violating the teachings of Taizu, and I have not dared to make up my mind. If you don't do it, I'm afraid it's too late, and some things should be acted upon! ”
"Brother Huang, since you insist, then do it!" Zhao seemed to sigh helplessly, he was not persuading. Once, he also asked the imperial brother what kind of official position he arranged for Zhao Gou, but there was no reply, and it was not until today that he learned that he was given the post of supervising the imperial history.
Supervising the imperial history is not as easy as imagined, when Xu Jingheng served as the supervising imperial history, he was not greedy for ink, honest, upright, and jealous. However, no matter how hard he tried, he still had to scruple about some things, and he didn't dare to let go of his hands and feet to do it.
If Zhao Gou served as the supervisor of the imperial history, then the crown prince Zhao Huan, Gao Yu and others would definitely not be restrained, and their personalities would inevitably make them stumble. The supervision of the imperial history is not high, the power is too heavy, it is above 10,000 people under one person, and it is only necessary to obey the emperor's orders, even if it is the privy council envoy, the crown prince and others, they can ignore it, and they don't have to listen to their orders.
However, such a position is feared by everyone, and no court official is willing to deal with them, and no one wants to get into trouble. There are very few innocent ministers in the court, and even those who are honest and honest rarely contact them, just because the official who supervises the imperial history is like a double-edged sword, which is extremely sharp if used properly, and hurts himself if he is used inappropriately.
Zhao didn't seem to understand what his brother was thinking, so he asked Zhao Gou, who did not have much power in the court, to serve as the superintendent of the imperial history, and did not hesitate to demote Xu Jingheng to a deputy envoy to assist him. Even so, Zhao seemed to not want to ask too much, he knew that Zhao Ji had his own ideas, and he just needed to follow orders.
"Thirteenth brother, you don't have to make a move this time, I believe that Go'er will handle it properly!"
How could Song Huizong not know what Zhao seemed to think in his heart, and immediately spoke out to stop the thoughts that had not yet been born, and Zhao seemed to be able to nod his head. Since his brother has said that he should not meddle, he can only obediently obey orders, and this Zhao seems to believe that Zhao Gou has the ability to deal with it, after all, he does not really have no power in his hands.
"The other thing I asked you to do, how did you investigate?" Song Huizong said solemnly.
Zhao Ru replied: "Brother Huang, what you expected, they really started to act!" It's just that this time the spies we sent out did not go deep into it, and we didn't know the specific situation, but we saw a large number of well-trained soldiers training, and they were afraid of bad intentions! ”
"Keep watching, just in case something like that happens!" Song Huizong advised, "I just hope that the time can catch up!" ……”
Zhao seemed to be silent, frowning, and their minds went up to other things. As for the fact that Zhao Gou served as the superintendent of the imperial history, there is no point in arguing. Now, they have more important things to deal with than that.
The words were divided into two ends, the crown prince Zhao Huan panicked, after Zhao Gou served as the supervisor of the imperial history, he no longer treated it indifferently, but looked nervous. In addition, Song Huizong's attitude also made him suspicious, especially when he glared at himself and others fiercely in the court.
Although the words were not spoken, the meaning was obvious, and it was a warning to them to restrain a little. If there is such a thing again, it will not be tolerated. The crown prince Zhao Huan panicked, panicked in his heart, and always felt that his father knew more things than he thought.
"Now it's the ninth brother who is serving as the superintendent of the imperial history, I'm afraid it's a little tricky!" The crown prince Zhao Huan frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Today, in the court, the intention of the father is already obvious, to thoroughly investigate the corrupt officials in the court, and the people who form a party for personal gain, I am afraid that this matter is a little strange!" ”
"Don't panic, the prince hasn't come to that yet!" Gao Yu said, "Judging from the current situation, the emperor's personality has changed greatly, and he is no longer the emperor he used to be, so we must be careful in the future." If you are not mistaken, the emperor does not really want to make the dynasty chaotic, but Zhu Mian has gone too far, angered Long Yan, provoked the emperor's taboo, and will be fine after a while. ”
Wang Hao said angrily: "This Zhu Mian is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose, he actually made such a big fuss, and he was still held with evidence, this is not a pity to die!" ”
Wang Hao was angry when he mentioned Zhu Mian, if it wasn't for the incident in his east window, it would not have affected several of them to suffer. Now, this matter is not really over, Zhao Gou's methods, they are very clear, quietly and secretly collecting evidence, and then making ruthless moves, which makes people unguardable.
If Zhao Huan wasn't in a hurry, it would be fake, and he didn't expect that Zhao Gou, who had been standing still for two months, would actually make such a move, which caught them off guard. If it weren't for Song Huizong's scruples, he was afraid that Zhao Huan would also be able to escape the blame, so he was a little panicked.
