There are too many ridiculous things in this world, hearing Shen Duan mention the need to restore the throne of the Taizu lineage, Zhao Zhen and Zhao Shu's father and son are as if they have heard a dream, what are you kidding?

From Zhao Er to Zhao Heng, and then to Zhao Zhen, three generations, the emperor who has been working for 80 years, has long been the heart of the world, even if the axe and candle shadow of the year, there are many rumors, but they have long been forgotten by people, or just regarded as a legendary history.

At the beginning, Zhao Zhen had no children, and he was only looking for it from Taizong's children and grandchildren, although some people mentioned Taizu's descendants, but it was just soy sauce, and no one really thought about restoring the throne of Taizu's lineage.

Shen Duan said this, it was too ridiculous, right?

Compared with the emperor's father and son, Wang Ningan thought a little more, because he remembered that in history, after Song Gaozong Zhao Gou crossed to the south, he had no children under his knees, and later he said to the ministers that it was Zhao Da who gave him a dream, told him the truth about the axe and candle shadow back then, and said that only by restoring the throne of the Taizu family can the country improve.

Later, Zhao Gou really passed the throne to the Taizu family......

For all kinds of magical rumors, Wang Ningan mostly does not believe it.

Zhao Er's descendants corrupted the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou fled to Hangzhou, appointed traitorous ministers, killed Zhongliang, bent the knee to the Jin Kingdom, failed to restore the Central Plains, welcomed back the two saints, and his prestige among the people has dropped to the limit.

He has no biological sons, and Zhao Eryi has been taken away a lot by the Jin people, and he can't find a close son and nephew to inherit the throne. Fortunately, the descendants of Taizu were put on the throne, and by the way, they won back the hearts of the people and boosted their morale...... How to put it, it's like a poorly run store, renovated, replaced with two beautiful clerks, and wants to save its performance, the reason is similar.

Of course, since it happened in the original history, it is not a fool's dream to restore the throne of the Taizu lineage, at least it is possible!

But to do this kind of thing, there must be a basis of public opinion and the support of the people...... To put it simply, it is necessary for the emperor to be angry and resentful, a mess, and the people can no longer bear it, so that there is a chance of success...... Our Uncle Zhao, has it been mixed up to the point of being a mess?

Obviously not, on the contrary, under the rule of Zhao Zhen, drastic reforms, the finances of the Great Song Dynasty increased year after year, the external war was generally smooth, the internal reform of the official system, the reduction of the clan, the inventory of acres, and fair taxation...... This series of actions has made the Great Song Dynasty prosperous, different from the past, and it is absolutely impossible to overthrow Zhao Zhen's position!

Wang Ningan thought quickly, and he suddenly shook his head.

"That's not right!"

The above judgment is his own opinion, but in the eyes of some other people, Zhao Zhen has pushed the law change too quickly in recent years, and the interests of too many people have been moved.

One rectification of the rule of officials will make tens of thousands of officials lose their jobs.

The descendants of the Reformed clan and the Taizu family will lose their preferential treatment and become ordinary people.

There are also acres of clear fields, and the average tax of square fields has offended the gentry of the world......

Any change in the law will benefit and some will suffer.

At present, the profit group is huge, but the victim group is even more powerful!

Moreover, these people have a strong background, sharp minions, and push up, even dating back to before the Qin and Han dynasties...... Are the Shinong industry and commerce, the huge civil and official group, and the Confucian scholars, willing to hand over power and withdraw from the stage of history?

Apparently impossible!

However, they lost their spokesmen in the court, and they also lost control over the emperor, and even could not control public opinion.

If this continues, their dominance will evaporate.

As a huge group, if there is no little countermeasure, it is a joke!

Wang Ningan suddenly thought of the incident of Empress Cao's poisoning, the design of the last poisoning was to like to let the emperor and the empress fight each other, and then get rid of the little prince, and successfully support the second prince to ascend the throne.

It is Wang Su who is in charge of this matter, and what stands behind him is the civilian forces in the southeast.

Obviously, after the last failure, they were not reconciled.

And this power has expanded again, and even the eunuchs of the inner court have been involved.

If you can't start from Zhao Zhen's side, then simply play bigger!

Assist the Taizu family!

Let Zhao Da's descendants succeed to the throne seems absurd, but it is a clever plan.

The descendants of Zhao Da have no burden, they succeed to the throne, and they can casually overthrow all national policies from Zhao Er to Zhao Zhen! After all, the source of their power is Zhao Da, not Zhao Er, so that Zhao Zhen's changes can be overturned logically, and the old-fashioned officials can control the court, call for wind and rain, and do whatever they want.

It's just that if you want to restore the Taizu lineage and overturn the change, the biggest obstacle is Wang Ning'an!

He is one of the two giants of the Fa-Reform School, holding military power and financial power, and at the same time he is the prince's teacher, plus Wang Ning'an is young and has unlimited potential.

If Zhao Zhen dies and the crown prince ascends the throne, perhaps within a few decades, the old school officials will not be able to turn over.

Moreover, the Six Arts Academy is expanding rapidly, and when the old wave of officials withers away, and the new scholars follow the concept of the Six Arts, then there will be no chance at all.

Assisting Taizu's lineage, instigating the relationship between monarchs and ministers, and letting Wang Ningan and Zhao Zhen fight to the death, it has become an inevitable choice!

Wang Ningan's brain spun extremely fast.

In a short period of time, after deducing various situations, he finally came to the correct conclusion. He became more and more confident and calm, as long as he saw through the opponent's calculations, and dealt with it in the next step, he was calm.

And Wang Ningan also thought of it, such a big strategy is obviously not something that Chen Lin can manipulate.

Many people were puzzled before, if the Great Song Dynasty wanted to transfer troops, it needed to go through the emperor, the political affairs hall, the Privy Council, and the military department, and also had to hide from Wang Ning'an, and let the local officials and border army generals be willing to obey the dispatch...... It's too hard, it's even more heavenly!

But now, if you see their plan clearly, you can guess the immortals behind you, with the strength of these people, let alone the transfer of troops, even if Zhao Zhen is secretly assassinated, Wang Ningan doesn't think it's anything unusual!

Sure enough, the deeper the change, the stronger the opposition!

And there is nothing that these opponents dare not do!

Thinking of this, Wang Ningan looked at Chen Lin and Shen Duan again, and had different ideas, in fact, they are also chess pieces, but they are relatively bigger.

Wang Ningan coughed, "Shen Duan, you said that Chen Lin wants to restore the throne of the Taizu lineage, but what evidence is there?" ”

"Yes!" Shen Duan said: "Wang Xianggong, you can send someone to search Chen Lin's residence, he retains the Taizu spiritual position, and he has to offer incense every three days, he, he also has a booklet!" ”

"What booklet?" Wang Ningan asked.

"It's a book for the rebellious!" Shen Duan gritted his teeth and said: "There are many people above, they are all former ministers of Taizu, noble generals, and they have been trying to rebel for decades. ”

Wang Ningan smiled at Chen Lin, "What excuse do you have?" ”

Chen Lin snorted, and only squeezed out four words, "What nonsense!" ”

Zhao Zhen turned his head angrily and said to Cao Tong: "Jing Xiu, check quickly!" ”

"Yes."

Cao Tong received the order and took people directly to Chen Lin's residence.

There, Cao Tong searched carefully, not letting go of any suspicions, even if he had to smash the porcelain bottle, to see if there was anything hidden inside...... It's just that Chen Lin's residence is very simple, there are only two cabinets, and nothing was found, so they chiseled the walls and dug up the floor tiles.

After tossing for a few hours, Cao Yan's eyes were red.

At this time, a whole day has passed since the trial.

Zhao Zhen specially ordered Wang Ning'an, Cao Tong, and other case-handling personnel to prepare a place to rest, and at such a time, who could sleep.

Wang Ning'an's eyes widened, staring at the ceiling for a long night.

There is a simple logic to everything, that is, to see who benefits the most, and usually this person is the one who is most motivated.

Assist Taizu to bring down himself, and even kill the emperor and destroy the change...... Putting this series of goals together, it's not hard to guess.

"Maybe it's time to talk to Wen Xianggong!"

Wang Ningan thought secretly.

After a night of hard work, Cao Tong returned in vain, and found nothing at Chen Lin's residence.

When Cao Tong saw Wang Ning'an, he couldn't help but complain: "Erlang, do you think Chen Lin will swallow the roster into his stomach, just cut the stomach of the old thing and look for it!" ”

Wang Ningan couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"What's your stomach? Safe, huh? Tan Xian can come out, but Chen Lin can't do it! Wang Ningan thought for a while, "I guessed well, it should have been destroyed by Chen Lin." ”

"Ruined?"

Cao Tong pulled Wang Ning'an's sleeve, stepped aside, and said mysteriously: "Erlang, do you say that booklet really exists?" ”

"It's hard to say, but based on Chen Lin's age, when he joined the army, there should be a lot of old ministers of Taizu who are still there, Chen Lin is a good border army, why did he enter the palace? If there is a real plan, it may make sense. ”

When Cao Yan heard this, his face became even more ugly, and he lowered his voice.

"Erlang, Shen Duan said that there are many generals and nobles on it...... Do you think it will ......" Cao Tong was full of worries, his ancestor Cao Bin was the founder of the country, and during Zhao Er's Northern Expedition, Cao Bin carried the black pot for Zhao Er...... Cao Tong tried to recall that when he was a child, many old people in the family despised Emperor Taizong when they mentioned the old things, saying that he was insidious, vicious in his methods, and even worse at leading troops...... Moreover, over the years, Chen Lin and Jiangmen have a very good relationship, and some Jiangmen have been bullied by civil officials, so they all go to the door of the palace and let the boss help him speak.

Chen Lin is also a good person and has made good connections.

"Erlang!" Cao Yan's voice changed, "I, why am I so scared!" If you investigate it and find out something, it will be a catastrophe! ”

Wang Ningan sneered and shook his head, "It's been more than 80 years, and now Jiangmen, who still has feelings for Taizu?" Believe in Your Majesty, know what you know! ”

At this time, Zhao Shu ran out and asked Wang Ningan to go in.

Zhao Zhen's health was very poor, but he couldn't sleep, so he could only rely on ginseng soup to maintain his spirits, and when he saw Wang Ning'an coming in, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Jingping, you and I talk to you, my virtue is thin, could it be that everyone in the world has abandoned me?" Zhao Zhen trembled his hands and pointed to a stack of manuscripts next to the dragon's bed, his voice was sad and full of helplessness, "I have asked people to check, and sure enough, there are many articles that want to restore the Taizu family, what do you want to do?" ”
