Chapter 1150: Take down Zhang Fangping
During the two months that Wen Yanbo was in Beijing, he was active and quickly gathered a large number of people from top to bottom, who gathered in Wenfu all day long, talking and speaking freely.
There is only one topic in all, that is, how to support Wang Ning'an to ascend the throne!
The usurpation of power has always been full of swords and swords, bloody killings. A group of people who are familiar with the history of the scriptures are actually discussing the peaceful transfer of the throne and the restoration of the ancient Zen concession system.
Could it be that their brains are pumping? Or is the book sick?
Not really!
After careful consideration, Wen Xianggong found that there was indeed hope that the soldiers would not be bloodless and complete the change of dynasty.
First of all, Wang Ningan's power and prestige are huge enough.
Even if Zhao Shu worked hard to fight abroad and expand his territory, in the hearts of ordinary people, especially the backbone of those over thirty years old, he admired King Qin even more.
Many of them benefited from Wang Ning'an's education order, and they leapt from poor peasant children to decent and wealthy successful people.
These people exist in various industries and fields, and many of them still hold power and can influence public opinion.
From merchants to officials, from scholars to soldiers, from cities to villages, from the Great Song Dynasty to overseas...... Wang Ning'an's supporters are widespread and unparalleled.
All Wen Yanbo had to do was to connect these forces that supported King Qin, and guide them to support King Qin's ascension to the throne and achieve a peaceful usurpation.
This road is not unwalked, such as the famous Wang Mang!
He first held power as a relative, assisted the young emperor to ascend the throne, called An Han Gong, and then added the position of Zai Heng to himself, above the prime minister, and then was pushed to be a fake emperor.
It took Wang Mang eight years to change from the Duke of An Han to the emperor of the new dynasty, and he usurped the rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty, which did not cause much turmoil, which is absolutely a miracle, and Wang Mang's reputation at that time was also excellent, and he was simply a living saint.
As for the words that scolded Wang Mang in later generations, they also appeared after Wang Mang ascended the throne, failed to implement the reform, and died and the country was destroyed.
Some people in later generations ridiculed that Wang Mang was a traverser, but there was actually a trace of truth.
And the more you research, the more you think it's possible.
For example, when Wang Mang assisted the emperor, he served as the Taifu, and his cronies Kong Guang was the Taishi, Wang Shun was the Taibao, and Zhen Feng was the young master, ranking on the third duke. When encountering major military affairs, they were all decided by An Han Gong and Sifu.
How is it, doesn't it look like Wang Ning'an did it in the political hall?
Also, after Wang Mang ascended the throne, he aimed at the situation that the imperial court was mediocre, the officials were greedy for ink, the land annexation was serious, the people were displaced, and the people's livelihood withered.
Wang Mang resolutely implemented the new system, changed the name of Tianxia Tian to "Wang Tian", and Wang Tian was not allowed to buy and sell, and then repeatedly changed the currency system, changed the official system and official name, and collected salt, iron, wine, coinage, and mountains, forests, and rivers to the imperial court...... These measures are Wang Mang's reforms, do they look a little familiar?
That's right, what I did with Wang Ningan is almost the same!
Two traversers, coincide!
Wang Mang promoted Wang Tian, and Wang Ningan did Juntian, and he couldn't buy and sell at will. The currency system was adjusted several times, from the copper standard, to the gold standard, and then to the credit standard.
Reform of the bureaucracy, the establishment of the Colonial Department, the General Staff, the Audit Department, the Royal Bank, the Council of Parliament...... At the same time, the mines and forests were also taken over to the imperial court......
After combing it a little, even Lao Wen was surprised.
After reading books for a lifetime and scolding Wang Mang for a lifetime, in the end, I found that the biggest Wang Mang was by my side!
What's even worse is that this grandson actually did what Wang Mang didn't do!
Oh my God!
Lao Wen can't be calm, maybe it's in the dark, there really is a destiny!
In the past few times, he was cheated too hard by Wang Ningan, there were grievances and grievances, Lao Wen said from the bottom of his heart that he was unwilling to give Wang Ningan a shout, let alone be a courtier.
But in the face of so many "coincidences", Lao Wen couldn't hold back.
People can fight with people, but they can't fight with the sky, the old man still responds to the sky!
Now that Wang Ning'an and Wang Mang are found to be so similar, it is obvious how to usurp the throne and seize power.
Wang Mang served as the Duke of An Han, and then served as Zai Heng, taking charge of the government.
Wang Ningan started with military exploits, was knighted King of Xiliang, and then served as prime minister.
He went out of the mountain again, was promoted to the king of Qin, and continued to serve as prime minister.
It can be said that the first two steps have already been taken.
The next thing is how to become a "fake emperor".
Lao Wen thought about it for a while, and still followed Wang Mang's strategy.
After grasping the power, the doctrine of Wei Wei Chan was prevalent, and all kinds of auspicious fortunes came one after another, and people continued to persuade Wang Mang under various names. Talismans and books emerge in an endless stream, such as "seeking talent and giving way", "declining in the Han calendar, when more ordained", "Heaven sue the emperor, the donor is crowned marquis" and so on.
For the people who offer the talisman, Wang Mang gives rich rewards, there are famous mourning people, but also offer the Jin Kui Ce book to the Han Gaozu Temple, to the effect that Mang is the true son of heaven, after a round of momentum, finally the time is ripe, Wang Mang forced Wang Zhengjun to hand over the jade seal of the country, and became the emperor of the new dynasty.
There is an example, just follow the prescription and take the medicine.
It's just that Wang Mang usurped the throne, using the superstition of Wei Wei, which obviously doesn't work in the Great Song Dynasty, after all, after years of education, the cultural level of the people of the Great Song Dynasty is the highest in all dynasties, and some ghost tricks can't deceive people, they can only become a joke.
After thinking about it, Lao Wen decided to focus on the banner of the virtuous.
Wang Ningan has done so many things and has so many merits, all of which are real and there. His foundation is much deeper than Wang Mang's, and it is easy to publicize.
Mobilize newspapers, mobilize scholars, write articles, praise Wang Ning'an, and praise Wang Ning'an as a living sage.
This alone is not enough, Lao Wen feels that we should fully mobilize the people's will and create a situation that everyone wants.
And the most powerful way to mobilize the people's hearts is the parliamentary meeting.
After discussing with his son Wen Jifu, he immediately took action.
First convene some close secretaries of parliament to discuss measures together, and after the big guys get together and communicate with each other, not to mention, they have come up with a very reliable method.
The secretary of parliament came from all over the country and all walks of life, so he simply went back, summoned people with lofty ideals from all provinces, wrote thousands of words together, and went to the street to preach, asking the king of Qin to conform to the will of the people, ascend the throne and become the emperor, and ask the Zhao and Song royal families to obey the heavens and hand over the dragon chair.
After discussion, they decided to name their group "Petition Group".
Detachments were to be formed in the provinces, and at the same time, merchants, citizens, scholars, students, presses, military circles, monks...... All of them have to come out, and they are willing to support King Qin to ascend the throne!
Not to mention, Lao Wen's fame is too great, and there are too many speculators in the world.
When the banner of the petition group was raised, it received an immediate response.
In less than ten days, there were more than 100 petition groups in Xijing alone, the largest of which had more than 10,000 people, and the small ones had hundreds of people.
And the petition group spread like a plague quickly.
Zhang Fangping, who was in Kaifeng, saw that Wen Yanbo had taken the lead again, and he suddenly jumped like thunder.
The old man is the first person to wave the flag and shout for King Qin, when you row up the Lingyan Pavilion in the future, you Wen Kuanfu can't climb on top of me!
Needless to say, Zhang Fangping also immediately moved.
Over there in Luoyang, the officialdom is quite calm, and there is no coaxing, but Kaifeng is not good, there are too many down-and-out bureaucrats gathered here, they used to hate Wang Ning'an, but now when they see the wind like this, they can't care about hate, they jump out one by one, take the family wealth, hire people, and really can't find it, so they pull their families out, and they are all over the world, scrambling, for fear that they will not be able to catch up with the excitement.
At first, the common people still had a good impression of King Qin, and when they saw so many petition groups, they also felt that there was nothing wrong, and some shops provided them with tea and let them rest for free.
But it's so noisy every day, the store is gone, we still have to do business, there are so many of you, the streets are closed, what's the matter?
Also, when you see people, you pull people, force them to join the petition group, and force them to pay money, what are you doing? hasn't become a dragon hero yet, just such a virtuous person, if you let you gain power, then you still have it?
Gradually, the big guy went from welcoming to disgusting, and the people's hearts quietly changed, and Lao Wen was still immersed in joy and didn't notice it.
However, as the prime minister, Wang Ningan has to get a lot of secret reports every day.
Since Lao Wen came up with the trick of the petition group, Wang Ningan's face has turned green!
He even suspected that this Wen Yanbo was the real traverser, you are shameless, how did you use the set of supporting Yuan Shikai on me?
Fortunately, someone secretly sent the book that Wen Yanbo reads every day to Wang Ningan!
The Biography of King Mang of Hanshu
Good for you, Wen Kuanfu!
Compare Lao Tzu with Wang Mang? Do you want Lao Tzu to fall into a thousand cuts?
This time, even if Lao Tzu wants to spare you, there is no reason!
Wang Ning'an's face was gloomy, and he immediately ordered, and several people from the political affairs hall, including Wang Shao, all rushed over.
"The petition group is doing mischief, disrupting the situation of the court, plotting to usurp the throne, and has ill intentions, you must immediately divide your troops and arrest all the leaders of the petition groups in various places, and at the same time take down the people behind the petition group, and show no mercy!"
After Wang Ning'an gave the order, several disciples immediately nodded, but Zhang Duan hesitated slightly.
"Zihou, could it be that you still collude with the petition group?"
Zhang Dian was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand, "Master, absolutely not, the disciple just got a letter." ”
"Letter?"
"Tianzhu came, it was sent by the junior brother." Zhang Dian said truthfully: "Senior brother told me that he has found some conclusive evidence that some people are funding the Tianzhu rebels, and the evidence is ironclad, and the junior brother is ready to do it." ”
Zhang Dian said as he observed his words, "Master, the disciple thinks, do you let the junior brother start first?" ”
Wang Ningan groaned for a moment, and his face darkened!
Rabbit cub, you acted, you actually told Zhang Dan, and didn't tell me that this is a father!
What do you guys think?
Do you think that the petition group, as well as Wen Kuanfu, is it really your father's meaning?
Little bunny, wait to try the family method!
Wang Ningan was so angry that he was about to explode...... However, he was still calm, suppressed his anger, and smiled reluctantly, "Okay, then let's see what tricks they can play!" ”
……
Kaifeng, Zhongyuan Academy.
Zhang Fangping gave a lecture on the altar for the fifth day in a row, and this time there were as many as 50,000 people, which can be said to be unprecedented, and the theme of this time was "forcing Zhao Song to retreat and supporting the new monarch".
Zhang Fangping was full of ambition, and when he was about to ascend the altar, suddenly from outside the crowd, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and tens of thousands of forbidden troops suddenly descended from the sky, and surrounded everyone......
Gouya'er looked solemn, rode on a white horse, and rushed out of the team, "Zhang Fangping, you colluded with traitors, the crime is extremely heinous, and you will be arrested before you can tie your hands!" ”
