Chapter 178: The Fall of the Traitor?
"Master Bao!" "Morning to the Lord!" "Hello Bao-sama!" "Master Bao, this is fresh cabbage, don't need money, please accept it!"
I saw that not far in front of Zhu Zilong, a middle-aged man in civilian clothes walked in front of the meat case, vegetable stalls, and vendors from far to near. Everyone greeted him one after another!
Even Zhu Zilong, who was dressed up and disguised, had a look of admiration on his face, which loomed from time to time.
There is no other reason, because this person is the son of Bao Heizi Bao Gong.
Bao Gong had a total of two sons and two daughters in his life, the eldest son was named Bao Yi, and served as a general judge in Tanzhou. But later, Bao Gong's white-headed man sent the black-headed man, and he died young, earlier than Bao Heizi.
There is also a son with a very strange background, but Bao Gong, as a legendary figure of a generation, is destined to be "strange" to the end.
It turned out that Bao Zheng's first wife Li had no children, and married Dong after his death, and the eldest son Bao Yu born to Dong grew up and became famous after Cui's marriage did not leave a son and a half daughter after he became ill and died.
Then, the unexpected dowry lady also had a relationship with Bao Gong, but then Bao Gong sent her back to her hometown.
And this woman is Bao Gong's only son later, Bao Shou's biological mother.
Bao Shou, that is, the middle-aged man in front of Zhu Zilong!
Bao Zheng, who had a son in his later years, was naturally very happy. But when Bao Shou was five years old, Bao Zheng drove to the west. Before he died, Bao Zheng sent Bao Shou's biological mother back home, and Bao Shou was raised by Cui's family. Cui's treated him like himself, loved him abnormally, and after being sensible, Bao Shou also "served him with a mother's courtesy" and called him "sister-in-law".
The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty regretted that Bao Gong had only one son in his life, and he was the only one. He was given the title of judge of the regimental training in Haozhou (now Fengyang County, Anhui Province).
This is Bao Shou's first time as an official, he is grim, serious, law-abiding, not greedy for wealth and wealth, and after seeing Bao Shou as a famous family, he does not claim to be powerful.
As a result, the prestige of Bao Gong's second son also grew, and not long after Zhu Zilong crossed, he heard the news that he was transferred to the capital.
When Zhu Zilong was looking for Bao Gong's information, he had seen it, so he recognized it at a glance.
"Calculate the time, it won't be long before he is going to enter Kaifeng Mansion, right? However, for the time being, Kaifeng Mansion is still in charge of Uncle Zhang, and he can only be a deputy when he enters. Zhu Zilong bowed his head and muttered to himself.
Zhu Zilong clearly remembered that in history, Bao Shou was transferred to Kaifeng, promoted to the seventh rank Xuanyilang, and assigned to be the supervisor of the Shaofu.
Later, he was first appointed as the supervisor of the country, then promoted to Xuande Lang, and then promoted to Liupintong Zhilang, and soon after being appointed as the general judge of Ruzhou (now Linru County, Henan), after the efforts of Bao Shou.
Soon, Ruzhou presented a peaceful and clear scene. When Bao Shou was promoted to Liupin Chao Fenglang and transferred out of Ruzhou, the people of Ruzhou helped the old and the young to see him off.
After that, Bao Shou was transferred to Tanzhou (now Changsha City, Hunan) to pass through Hefei, he arranged family affairs, and then took a boat to Yannan River into Chaohu Lake, and then entered the Yangtze River, tracing the river upstream.
On the way, he became seriously ill, and the ship sailed to the vicinity of Huangzhou (present-day Huanggang County, Hubei Province), and then died at the age of 47.
Later, when people opened their luggage, they found that they could not find anything of value except for letters of appointment, books, stationery, and writings.
When he passed away, only forty-six copper coins were found in his pocket, compared to his father's rich life. I have to say that Zhu Zilong feels that this Lord Bao is the real Qing official.
Although his reputation is not as good as that of his father Bao Heizi, he has reached a higher level on the road of honesty and justice.
"It's a pity, I only lived to be forty-seven years old. If you can live for a longer time, maybe a second-generation adult who is more famous than Bao Gong and more loved by the people may appear. Zhu Zilong couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.
Bao Heizi lived to be almost 65 years old, but his two sons died in their forties, almost 20 years old.
-
Just as Zhu Zilong was thinking, Bao Shou quickly chatted with Su Mai, obviously both of them were old acquaintances. Vaguely, it was rumored that they would be one of the judges of this triennial literary meeting.
It was difficult to stay, and soon the two of them found a place to sit by the window in a teahouse on the side.
Zhu Zilong had an idea, pulled Li Qingzhao, who was also disguised, and quickly entered the public teahouse. Not far from them, they also asked for a place to sit down and drink tea.
The conversation between Bao Shou and Su Mai soon shifted from Wenhui to the government.
Su Mai said with a happy face: "Master Bao, it is said that Cai Jing disliked the official family because of the heavenly appearance, but he hung a rank and opened the mansion with the three divisions, and lived in a simple place. Zhao Xiang has been reused, which is really a blessing for my generation! ”
The Bao Shou opposite him was silent, but his expression was quite agreeable, smiling and touching his beard and nodding.
Zhu Zilong and Li Qingzhao on the adjacent table were startled, and then, Li Qingzhao gently said to Zhu Zilong: "Great, the traitor has fallen." My father-in-law was reused, and my big Song Dynasty was when there was a zhongxing. ”
Zhu Zilong was very happy when he heard the previous sentence, but when he heard the latter sentence, he snorted lightly and replied: "You and Zhao Mingcheng have already reconciled, and he is not your father-in-law." In addition, getting reused is completely incompatible with your Li family. On the contrary, in order to be reused, Zhao Xiang will definitely have more and more distant relations with your Li family to avoid suspicion. And when it comes to the fall of traitors, I don't think that's necessarily the case! ”
Li Qingzhao's eyes darkened, he was silent for a few seconds, and then asked rhetorically: "Let's not talk about anything else, you said that the traitor fell, and it is not true, but why?" ”
"What else? The art of imperial balance is also! Zhu Zilong sighed softly.
As soon as he raised his head, he gently explained to Li Qingzhao: "When I was used to making friends before, I explored the style. The thief was a close minister of the official family, and he secretly said that Cai Jing's power in recent years was too central, and he wanted to rub his sharpness, and then use it again. Do you think he is down, down, or down? ”
In history, Cai Jing has been dismissed several times, but he has been reinstated, repeatedly. can be called the longest-reigning Xiangye in Chinese history.
Fall?
If the Qing official dies, he will not fall.
This time, the resignation caused by the change of celestial phenomena is only his first time. It was also Zhu Zilong's cheap emperor father, who had just ascended the throne and was still a clear and fair emperor.
It is estimated that it is worried that there will be no checks and balances, and it will not be good. But with the loss of time, the emperor became more and more unreliable, and Cai Jing went up and down, and after a few times of fun, his power became more and more incomparable.
Fall? Great Song Zhongxing? Hehe, what a great irony!
