Chapter Forty-Nine: The Liang Zi Knot Gets Deeper and Deeper
Zhu Han'an is tireless
Zhao Ruyu was careless
After the resignation of the prime minister, the ruling officials made another adjustment, Zhao Ruyu was promoted to the left prime minister, Yang Wenduan was the right prime minister, and Jing Yutang participated in political affairs and knew the affairs of the Privy Council.
Zhao Ruyu didn't think much about the resignation of the prime minister, and when he appointed him as the left minister, he still shirked. The emperor did not allow it, and then sat on the prime minister's throne with peace of mind.
But in the eyes of some other ministers, this is not a simple thing, where did the good royal pen come from, and who came up with the trick of using the imperial pen to directly dismiss the prime minister?
As the emperor's former ministers, Chen Junliang and Peng Zishou are very clear about the emperor's temperament. This emperor loves to read, and he has read a lot of books, but he has not seen any effect, you report to him on political affairs, and his mouth is dry, he is still vague, staring at a pair of big eyes, you have to pick the key points, and say it again, what things, what reasons, what to do, one by one clearly. You ask him how to decide, he can't say, let you make up your mind, he reviews a lot of pieces every day, and he doesn't know what to do.
Peng Zishou told him that all the recitals should be read by the people of Zhongshu Province first, write an outline and attach it to it, and then classify them according to their priorities. When His Majesty reads it, he first reads the outline, thinks it is necessary, and then looks at the folds, the main and urgent ones read first, and if he thinks that what he said is right, he should do so, so he writes a quasi-word, and if he disagrees, he writes a retreat, and if he does not need to express his position immediately, write a reading word.
I've taught it a few times like this, but I still can't remember it. So much so, no matter what the twists and turns, I don't know whether I have seen it or not, I will write a word, so that the ministers do not know what to do. I had to give a clear opinion from the Prime Minister's Department.
The two of them combined, at present, in addition to the minister, there is another person, that is, Han Yanxuan.
Xu Pingyang, the waiter of the Criminal Department, also felt that this surnamed Han should not be underestimated, so he found Zhao Ruyu and said straight to the point: Han Yanxuan is not a simple person, is the prime minister as he wishes, give him a temperance envoy?
Zhao Ruyu has no consciousness of potential coercion at all, and his face is disdainful, he is not suitable for reuse as a relative who has no background.
Xu Pingyang persuaded him again that Han Yanxuan was ambitious, so it was better to give him a temperance envoy and let him go to the state capital, so as not to interfere with the government in Beijing.
Zhao Ruyu still despises him, and it is not now to give him a temperance, with my old Zhao here, he can't jump far.
As the saying goes, people cannot be disguised, and the sea cannot be measured. Zhao Ruyu never thought that this Han Yanxuan, whom he had always looked down on. Suddenly, he jumped up, and even he couldn't parry.
In real life, there is often such a situation, when achieving victory, many people are often inevitably a little proud, it is difficult to do things perfectly, and unconsciously make some seemingly small but fatal mistakes.
The old master Zhu Xi was very conscientious, and he believed that this time he entered the court as an imperial teacher, which was an excellent opportunity for him to promote science and educate the people, so his enthusiasm for work was extremely high.
After entering Beijing and entering the court, he entered one zazi a day and five zaza in a row. The first note is to ask Emperor Ningzong to be sincere, the second note is to ask the emperor to read the scriptures and reason, and the last three notes are to discuss the relevant matters handled by Tanzhou political affairs.
In mid-October, Feng Zhaojin lectured on "University", and the old gentleman wore a high hat and a scarlet robe. It's like returning to the academy, facing the emperor Zhao Kuan, quoting scriptures, citing scriptures, citing from the side, and talking endlessly for more than an hour, which is nothing more than how to learn from things, how to cultivate one's self and govern the country and level the world.
According to the regulations, two days for one hour, his old man took the initiative to ask for overtime, every day, once in the afternoon, once in the evening, one hour at a time. After a few days, he was full of interest, but Emperor Zhao Kuo felt bored.
When lecturing, Zhu Xi also linked to reality, and when it came to loyal ministers and distant villains, the old master would say, Your Majesty, the ministers of the imperial court are all people with great wealth and outstanding talents, and they should be relied on more, while the inner servants and relatives around His Majesty are fortunate enough to have no talent and no virtue, so they cannot be trusted, and they should stay away from them.
Obviously, these words are pointed, indicating that Zhao Ruyu, Zhu Xi and others have seen the adverse impact of Han Yanguanli on the court situation, and want to make the emperor alienate them through prompts.
He also said that the emperor is the face of all the people, and he must refrain from reforming himself and abide by the rules. For example, His Majesty and the Emperor, according to the rules of the sages, this etiquette of greeting the Emperor must not be omitted. Even if the Emperor refuses to see His Majesty, His Majesty should insist on going. If you can't see you once in ten days, you can go once in five days, and if you can't see you once in five days, you can go in three days, two days, or even once a day. If the Emperor is still gone, His Majesty should lie at the door of the Emperor's residence, crying and shouting, begging him to see you, sincerely, gold and stone for opening, and treating his own parents is not afraid of hardship, tiredness, and grievances.
As soon as he said this, Emperor Zhao Kuo's head was big.
Emperor Zhao Dian and Xiaozong are not the same, the latter is looking forward to his son coming to see him, the former son came and didn't see it at all, the emperor insisted on seeing it, but he was cold, with a fierce and vicious attitude.
Shangshu Zuo Xuanlang official Ye Zhengze has a handsome appearance, chic manners, outstanding knowledge and talent, Zhao Ru is foolish and wants to take a heavy responsibility, Ye Zhengze thanks:
Loyalty to the country is the duty of the ministers, and I dare not invite merit to be promoted.
However, he made a suggestion to Zhao Zuoxiang: only if Yu Xuan is disappointed in his heart, if he appoints Jieyue now, he can get his wish, otherwise his resentment will grow deeper, and it will not be the blessing of the imperial court.
Zhao Ruyu disagreed, thinking to himself, how capable a martial artist with no background can be, and it is very good to give him a privy council. Response: This question, I'll talk about it later.
Ye Zhengze pushed the door and left. The authorities are fascinated, and the bystanders are clear, and it is extremely true that Han Yanxuan's energy cannot be underestimated. The prime minister did not listen to people, and the root of the curse has been planted since then, and I am still here waiting to suffer. So he submitted a report to the Ministry of Officials and insisted on going to the local office.
Zhao Ruyu, who has learned five cars and has been in officialdom for a long time, is too conceited, ignores the friendly reminders of the two comrades-in-arms, and does not take corresponding countermeasures, misses the opportunity, and will pay a miserable price for this.
A few days later, Ye Zhengze was appointed as a transfer envoy on the Huaihe East Road.
At the same time, Zhao Ruyu transferred three officials from the local government to the imperial court. They are Li Shixiang, the priest of the country, Dr. Yang Yijian, and Lu Zujian, the Taifu Doctor.
Everything is ready, and Zhao Ruyu is full of confidence. In a note to Emperor Ningzong, he wrote: Since the founding of the ancestors, the country has been more than 230 years, like a high-rise building, after the vicissitudes of time. There will be signs of breakage, collapse and damage, and even cannot protect against wind and rain, and so on. The first task is to promote the good and eliminate the bad, and repair the new. The revitalization of the world and the governance of the council are nothing more than the two ways of government and Confucianism, and now, the wind is clean and upright, and the top and bottom are concentric, and they have set sail and braved the wind and waves.
Ye Zhengze received an appointment from the imperial court, bid farewell to his teacher Chen Junliang, and left the capital to go to Yangzhou to take up his post, passing through the ground of Pingjiang Mansion and detouring to Shihu in Wu County.
One came to worship Fan Chengda, and the other came to visit the eldest daughter. Five years ago, he married his nineteen-year-old eldest daughter Rong Rong to Fan Cheng's fourth son, Fan Zuliang, and a few months ago, his daughter reported that she had added a grandson to him.
