On November 18 of the fifth year of Jing You, Gengxu Day, the winter solstice, Zhao Zhen led the ministers to worship the heaven and earth Yuanqiu, amnesty, and changed the Yuan Bao Yuan from this day, and the name of Jing Yu officially ended. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info November 26, Wu Wu day, the senior palace scholar, the left servant shot, the Yiguo Gong sentenced Yunzhou Wang Zeng died, Zhao Zhen dropped out of the dynasty on the second day, gave Wang Zeng to serve in the middle, Zhen Wenzheng.

Emperor Zhenzong was not in good health in his later years, and he felt that his days were numbered, so when Zhao Zhen was nine years old, he asked him to perform a crown salute and leave the cabinet. The ancient king was crowned at the age of twelve, and only after completing the crown ceremony can he be able to govern himself. At that time, Zhenzong intended to let the nine-year-old Zhao Zhen supervise the country as the crown prince, and it was Wang Zeng who was set to assist Zhao Zhen. Wang Zeng was in the later years of Zhenzong, the time when Empress Dowager Liu was in power, and the early days after Zhao Zhen's pro-government were the most turbulent years in the imperial court. In the end, the Great Song Dynasty passed this extraordinary period safely, and Wang Zeng contributed a lot. Lü Yijian only entered the political hall after Zhao Zhen succeeded to the throne, and Li Di's influence and role were far from Wang Zeng, who was the minister who really cared for the life of the three masters, and his departure marked the end of an era.

Wang Zeng's death left Xu Ping a little dazed and at a loss.

Originally, he wanted to go to the northwest to serve after the party officially opposed the Song Dynasty, one was to use war to promote military reform, and the other was to accumulate qualifications for himself. If the official achieves Xu Ping's level, one step further will be the ruler, but Xu Ping's qualifications are insufficient, and there will be great resistance to serving as the ruler. Some time ago, Zhao Zhen originally wanted to make Song Zhen, who had always been optimistic, a privy deputy envoy, but he was strongly opposed, and finally became a bachelor of Hanlin. Xu Ping's qualifications were more lacking than Song Zhen's, and he was only afraid that he would attract opposition from the Manchu Dynasty. Only by serving one or two more terms in the local area can we make up for the qualifications.

Once Xu Ping left the Third Division, there was a war outside and the new policy reform was implemented internally, Li Di and Chen Yaozuo were afraid that it would be difficult to ensure that there would be no problems in the government. Xu Ping's original calculation was to let Wang Zeng return to the court and partner with Li Di as prime minister when he left the capital. Wang Zeng's ability and prestige were enough to ensure the stability of the government.

Of course, Xu Ping's status today cannot determine the choice of prime minister, but with Zhao Zhen's trust in him, the great achievements made by the new policy of the three divisions in the past two years, the possibility of this plan being realized is still very large.

However, Wang Zeng's sudden death made Xu Ping's plan come to naught, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while. At the moment when the court is facing major changes, without Wang Zeng, who else can stop Lu Yijian from returning to the court? Lu Yijian re-entered the political affairs hall, his attitude towards the new policy can be said uncertainly, the new policy to this day, it is a pity that there is a change.

On the first day of December, after worshipping heaven and earth, the imperial court added grace to hundreds of officials, and the number of food seals of Xu Ping Yongning County Marquis increased again, and it was not far from entering the county of Fengfeng. In fact, the official title of the county marquis should be the founding marquis, but the system of the five dynasties of the Song Dynasty is different from the county name of the Tang Dynasty, but the name of the county, so it is generally called the county marquis.

The second day of December, Jiazi Day. Xu Ping was sorting out the report of the year-end final accounts in the chief hall of the Yamen of the Third Division, when suddenly a violent shaking came, and Xu Ping almost fell from his seat to the ground.

The general guarding outside the gate shouted, "Another earthquake! Lord, come out of the house! ”

Xu Ping got up from his seat, shook his head, and then came to his senses, and walked quickly to the outside of the governor's hall with the generals who ran over. This year is indeed ominous, although Xu Ping has never believed in strange forces and chaos, but the northwest will be chaotic, and there have been many earthquakes in a year, which still makes him feel a little strange in his heart.

At this time, all the people in the yamen had come out of the house and stood in the courtyards of the three divisions, talking a lot.

Xu Ping stabilized his mind and said to Tan Hu, who rushed over: "You assign people to pass on my orders everywhere in the yamen." Today's earthquake in Beijing, I don't know if there are any major aftershocks behind, so let the departments leave people outside to watch the yamen, and the others go home first, avoid the earthquake and return to the yamen tomorrow. Also, let the divisions check carefully, whether there are any casualties, and there should be no one in the house. ”

Tan Hu agreed, turned around and went with a few of Xu Ping's personal entourage.

For a while, I didn't know how much the three divisions were affected, and I didn't know if there was an edict in the court due to the sudden change, so Xu Ping had to stay outside the official hall, and it was not good to leave. Worried about the safety of his family, Xu Ping sent his entourage home to check.

Just after the order, Xu Ping didn't take a breath when he saw the little yellow door in the palace hurrying over.

In front of Xu Ping, Xiao Huangmen said loudly: "Provincial Lord, the official family has an edict, immediately enter the palace to discuss matters!" ”

Xu Ping was a little strange and asked Xiao Huangmen: "Pavilion Chief, when the earthquake occurred, you should be on the way." What's the matter, could it be that Si Tianjian predicted the earthquake this time? Otherwise, how could the decree be delivered so quickly? ”

Xiao Huangmen's face was serious, and he shook his head: "I don't know if Si Tianjian has a forecast for the earthquake, but this time the provincial lord entered the palace to discuss the matter, not because of the Jingshi earthquake." ”

"Oh, what's that for? After the earthquake, it is inevitable that there will be all kinds of chaos, and it is not a major event that should be temporarily suppressed. ”

Xiao Huangmen said solemnly: "What we are discussing is a military matter!" Provincial master, party item Zhao Yuanhao is reversed! Your Majesty specially instructed that when the little ones pass on the decree, they should make this matter clear to the ministers! ”

"Reverse? The party item is reversed?! Xu Ping's eyes widened, and he didn't believe what he heard for a while. said every day that Zhao Yuanhao wanted to rebel, and even wanted him to reverse quickly, but when it really happened, it still made Xu Ping feel sudden.

Xiao Huangmen stopped talking, but nodded heavily to Xu Ping.

The earthquake in Beijing can be described as a change in the sky, and the news of the party's anti-Song Dynasty came at this time, which is really impressive.

Xu Ping didn't dare to delay, so he summoned a few deputy envoys to come over, explained the affairs of the yamen a little, let them stay here, and quickly entered the palace with the little yellow gate. With the efficiency of this era, it should be a few days before the party project reacts. If the Privy Council and the border generals were to do their duty and use 800 miles to expedite the delivery of the news, it would take four or five days on the road. If Zhao Yuanhao has the heart, taking advantage of this time difference is enough to fight a big battle. The situation is urgent, and there is no time to delay, and the imperial court must respond as soon as possible.

Directly through the imperial city, Xu Ping went from the back pavilion of the Wende Hall to the outside of the vertical arch, and just happened to meet Chen Zhizhong, the governor of the government.

The two saluted, and Xu Ping said to Chen Zhizhong: "Participating in politics, I don't know if there is any news in the political affairs hall, when did Yuan Hao oppose the Song Dynasty?" Can there be a big war in the northwest? If necessary, I don't know if the third division should immediately allocate money and grain to Shaanxi Road? ”

Chen Zhizhong's face turned pale, and he shook his head at Xu Ping: "I am dedicated to the country, and I am naturally anxious when I hear this news." However, some ministers in the DPRK may not think so, and they regard state affairs as child's play, and even dare to conceal such military affairs and not report them. Today, Yan Yanlu was played, and Zhao Yuanhao, the party item, rebelled against the Song Dynasty, established a pseudo-national name of Daxia, and changed the Yuan to be the emperor. The problem is that it was two months ago, in October, and it only started today. Ridiculous! ”

Xu Ping couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't speak with his mouth open. The betrayal of the subject country and self-reliance, such a big thing, Yan Yanlu dared to suppress it for two months and not report it, which can no longer be described as absurd. The soldiers are fast, and two months is enough to fight a big battle.
