Chapter 1 Sitting on the Weishui Shore (Part I)
"It's been a success, but I can't imagine that it's still fate." Zhao Ji raised his hand and pushed away several wicker sticks in front of him, "I am the emperor, but it is so difficult to imagine seeing a courtier." is a good Han Gang, for a test, he even pushed the opportunity to go to Jingyique. Isn't face Cheng Qingguang still as good as a tribute qualification? ”
Wang Shao was shocked in his heart, and glanced forward, but he didn't see any unhappy expression on the side face of the Son of Heaven.
The garden is full of grass and trees, and the crown is like an umbrella, blocking the afternoon sun.
Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves He Tiantian.
Although it is not the south of the Yangtze River, a white jade railing encloses several acres of small lakes, lotus leaves cover half of the lake, the breeze is gentle, and the green lotus leaves are also undulating.
The two of them walked in the breeze, and Zhao Ji continued: "Speaking of me, since I ascended the throne, I can be regarded as diligent in government. The court officials who have not met each other, except for a few Zhizhou on the two roads of Guangnan, are only Han Gang. ”
"Han Gang is upright and does not want to be rewarded."
"His temperament, I also know the way." Zhao Ji nodded and said, "Hengshan is victorious, and he doesn't want to be rewarded." Speaking like this in front of the prime minister, there are really few people in the world. Saving the enemy and quelling the rebellion alone, all such merits have been put down, and there is only one person. ”
"There are also villains who say that Han Gang is so famous."
"Then give me a few more ...... who are also famous. I'm in short supply of people like that. Zhao Ji smiled, took Wang Shao to a small bridge, and held on to the railing, "Although I value Han Gang, if he goes to Beijing with the Qing family, I can only give him a qualification to participate in the Ministry of Rites Examination at most." It's not that I'm stingy, but it's actually Han Gang's merits, but his literary name is not good. Although the background of a Jinshi is not too heavy, it is inconvenient to give it to him. provoked discussions, and it was even more detrimental to his future establishment in the DPRK. I'm thinking I'm going to use him a lot in the future, and if I have a stigma, it's not going to be easy. ”
Wang Shao looked at the thin back in front of him and was shocked. Although he knew that Zhao Ji valued Han Gang very much, he was still surprised when he heard this. But Zhao Ji's words are also Wang Shao's opinion of Han Gang: "With Han Gang's talent, it should be easy to be a Jinshi." If poetry is given to scholars, it may be debatable. But when it comes to the scriptures and righteous policies, he is already outstanding. Its talent is not just a matter of governing the government and employing soldiers. ”
"In fact, if there is an economy of governing the government and employing soldiers, it does not matter if you are a little less educated. Just like Xue Xiang, he doesn't have a background, but hasn't he been the supervisor all the way, and even the current third envoy? Xihe used it, and in the court, it was also operated by Xue Xiang. Zhao Ji paused, "Even if you are not born, you can also be an important minister in the court." ”
But with Han Yukun's age and official character, how could he only think about the place all the way and the position of the three divisions, instead of being in the middle of the class? Wang Shao thought to himself, but didn't say it.
"I still remember Wang Qing's Pingrong policy five years ago." Zhao Ji turned around, and at the same time changed the topic, "'The Xia people attacked the Qing Tang Dynasty in the year, and they couldn't overcome it, in case of it, they would join forces to the south, plunder Qin and Wei, herd horses in Lan and Hui, break the ancient Wei realm, serve Nanshan Shengqiang, build Wusheng in the west, and plunder Tao and River when sending troops, then the counties of Long and Shu should be disturbed'. ”
I didn't expect Zhao Ji to remember the content of "Ping Rong Ce" presented back then, but time has passed, "Now Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it." Wang Shaowei bowed and said to Zhao Ji proudly.
"It's the power of the Qing family." Zhao Ji nodded approvingly, "'Western Xia is desirable. If you want to take the Western Xia, you should first restore the river Huang, and the Xia people will have to worry about the enemy. Now that Mu Zheng has been captured, Dong Yu will also be subdued. The momentum of breaking the right arm of the thief has been completed, and I don't know when I will be able to go straight to the heart......"
"Your Majesty ......" Wang Shao's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Although the battle of Hezhou was won, now that Qin Feng's warehouse is empty, Xihe must also recuperate for several years before he can be self-sufficient, and it is really not the time to use troops against Lingxia." ”
"I also know that the battle to destroy the country is not idle. I won't be in a hurry, I still have a few years to prepare. Zhao Ji looked at the railing, and his gaze fell on a residual lotus, but what he looked at was the Jin Ge Iron Horse thousands of miles away, "200,000 can't be successful, isn't 600,000 still okay?" ”
During the Warring States Period, the Western Qin destroyed the Chu War. The first emperor consulted the veteran general Wang Qian, and if he was taken as a general, he would destroy Chu and the soldiers. Wang Qian's answer was 600,000. This number is almost the national soldier of the Qin State. So the First Emperor used another general with only 200,000 soldiers. But the use of soldiers is not shopping, and the cheap ones are selected. The state of Chu is a hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen, and the 200,000 Qin army invades Chu, which is a great defeat. In the end, according to Wang Qian's request, he mobilized a full 600,000 before destroying the Chu State.
Because of the smooth implementation of the new law, Zhao Ji has enough confidence in the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty. The warehousing in the treasury is no longer the cold empty space of his hands and feet when Zhao Ji first ascended the throne. As long as you wait a few more years, you will be able to prepare enough manpower, material and financial resources to quell the Western Xia.
"I'm only twenty-three this year, and I can afford to wait for a few years...... At that time, it is indispensable to use the Qing family. ”
Wang Shao bent down deeply: "Ministers should serve to death." ”
"There's no need to die, I'm still waiting for the Qing family to be like this time, so that I can be congratulated by the ministers in the Zichen Palace......"
The two continued to stroll along the lotus pond. Zhao Ji was in front, listening to Wang Shao talk about some strange things about Hehuang, and asked a few questions from time to time.
Li Shunju came in a hurry at this time, and handed a report to Zhao Ji with a solemn expression.
Zhao Ji took it and unfolded it, his expression became heavy, his brows frowned slightly, and he whispered to himself: "There are only ten buckets in the world, but I don't mean that there is one less bucket today." ”
Wang Shao couldn't see what this report was talking about, but from Zhao Ji's own words, he could guess a rough idea. There are only ten buckets in the world, and the one who can monopolize eight buckets is Cao Zijian [Cao Zhi] during the Three Kingdoms. And the Great Song Dynasty is prosperous, the cultural movement is prosperous, the talented people are everyone, and the volume of the car is heavy, and no one can monopolize most of the world. And there are only a few people who can afford the number of eleven. After a little thought, his identity is about to come out.
Ouyang Jiu's romance was over. Wang Shao sighed in his heart, not without sadness. He was in the second year of Jiayou, and it was also the subject that Ouyang Xiu took the main exam. If it weren't for Ouyang Xiu's change of the sinister and difficult style that was popular at the time, he might not have been able to win that Jinshi.
"There is no drunkard in the drunkard pavilion...... Zhao Ji also sighed, and handed the report back to Li Shunju: "Give the late prince and young master Ouyang Xiu as the prince and princess, and the reward will be based on the prime minister's system." The order of the Taichang Rite House is to set its name. As for the shadow supplement and other things, we will talk about it later! ”
……………………
At this time, it was known that the Taichang Rite Temple was a permanent rank who entered the official by cloth. Ouyang Xiu was the best at Chang Zhi in the old days, and he was recommended to him several times. Although later, due to various incidents, they were alienated. But when people go to revenge, there is no need to mention the past.
Chang Zhi sat in the public hall, and the officials in the Taichang Rite Courtyard sat down, listening to Li Qingchen, a doctor of Taichang who drafted the name, and said: "In the life of the Taishi, the most in the education and governance of the Tao. The lower officials should follow the law, and the morality is erudite, and they should be 'literate'. ”
"Wen ......" is a word in Wenchen's name, which is already uncommendable. Chang Zhi thought for a moment and asked, "Who is the person who used to be 'literary'?" ”
Li Qingchen had already ordered someone to check the information, and replied: "Yang Yi is only one person who is a 'writer' in the country. In the Tang Dynasty, there were Han Yu, Li Ao, Quan Deyu, and Sun Di. ”
"It's okay for Han to retreat. But how can Yang Yi, Li Ao, Quan Deyu, and Sun Di compare to Ouyang Yongshu? ”
"Isn't it appropriate to use the word 'Wen'?" was denied, Li Qingchen was unhappy, "Dare to ask what the prefectural court wants to say?" ”
"Uncle Yong is the sect of the world, the word 'Wen' is unyielding, and it cannot be changed! Ran Yongshu is good at admonishing in his life, the so-called 'wisdom and reasonableness', when adding the word 'dedication', it is 'literature'. ”
"The literature is unusable!" Li Qingchen immediately denied it.
"If the dedication word is not available, add the word 'loyalty' for Wenzhong." Chang Zhi seems to have a fixed opinion, and after being denied before, he immediately put forward another plan, "Uncle Yong tried to participate in the political affairs of the world, and once entered the Yanrenzong, begging to make an edict to establish a prince as soon as possible, so that there is a clear name and a fixed score, so as to reassure people." and Yingzong Daxing, now the emperor's throne. Uncle Yong's two predetermined strategies have the merit of stabilizing the society. He also worked with Yu Nei and Wai between the two palaces, and ended in Yingzong's vision. According to the law, 'endangerment is offered' for loyalty. ”
"And Uncle Yong is honest by nature and sincere and insightful. A person understands that there is nothing to deceive, and he refuses to bend his will, so that he can be safe and secure by seeking stability. Discuss the merits of the matter, distinguish between the virtuous and the foolish, and never avoid people's grievances and slanders. Forget about the danger and think that the court is doing things. 'Honest and fair' is loyal, these four words, Uncle Yong is also worthy of it. ”
"Those who slander are also deeds; The number is also the work of the table. Uncle Yong's life, moral knowledge, danger and fairness, this is all there. Uncle Zhen Yong is Wenzhong, I don't know what you think? ”
Chang Zhi was Ouyang Xiu's old friend, and he said it very reasonably, and while all the officials nodded, they all looked at Li Qingchen. Li Qingchen stood up and saluted, "If you don't change the text and add loyalty, you will be exhausted." Qing Chen dares not to obey! ”
Ouyang Xiu's generation, such as today's scholars, mostly take it as their ancestor. However, although he was an important minister of the Three Dynasties, he never stood on the right side once in his life, and finally fell into slander and lost his reputation. He has lived in a remote state for several years, and it is not until today that he has returned to the hearts of the world.
When the Oiran of the Church Division, they began to sing, 'The curtain rolls in the morning. Try plum makeup. All have their own hatred, so when the painting is far away from the mountain, Wang Anshi also heard the name set by the Taichang Rite Academy to Ouyang Xiu, and after sighing for his old friend, he couldn't help but be gloomy, "Today, Uncle Yong has to be loyal to Wenzhong, I don't know how future generations will tell me ......"
Zeng preached: "Xianggong Kuang helped the present and swept away the disadvantages of the Great Song Dynasty. A hundred years later, why not worry about it?! ”
"Forget it!" Wang Anshi smiled freely, "After death, everything is empty." What to give, that's someone else's business. My generation talks about things, only in this life! ”
