Chapter 62: The Study of the Clan
The shadow of war that has shrouded the entire Jin Kingdom since the winter solstice has temporarily dissipated, and the Zhao family has suffered a loss this time, for the imprisoned Le Qi, Zhao Ying can only slowly figure it out now, hoping to let the Marquis of Jin release him by means of negotiation.
But how difficult is this, the current situation is that the Fan, the Bank of China, the Zhishi, and the Monarch have adopted the means of detaining their allies in order to suppress Zhao Ying, who has the largest territory and the most powerful limelight. And if Zhao Ying wants to request the release of Le Qi through the form of the Six Secretaries and the Monarch's Public Meeting, at least four or even five secretaries need to seconded it before it can be passed.
Of the remaining forces, only the Han clan will definitely support Zhao Ying, and the Wei clan will probably remain neutral and strive to win the Zhao clan. Therefore, the other Quartet has to win over one or two more, which is not easy to say.
This is also a huge lesson, Zhao Ying decided, on the one hand, to increase the Zhao family's intelligence sources, and on the other hand, to speed up the cultivation of several sons, especially Zhao Wuxian. When this son persuaded Zhao Ying to quit the army, he analyzed the domestic situation very well, and he couldn't see that he still had such skills.
Since it has been a few days and it is rare for his son to return to the palace, Zhao Ying simply asked his daughter Ji Huan to prepare a hot morning meal, let them have a full meal, and ask about their respective governance by the way.
When asked, Beru was extremely humble, and said as much as he picked up the difficulties he encountered; Zhongxin said a lot of empty words, and didn't seem to do anything practical; However, Shuqi has outstanding political achievements and is full of self-confidence.
What Zhao Ying didn't expect was that Zhao Wuxian, who boasted about Haikou some time ago and said that he would double his plan next year, was extraordinarily low-key today, not saying too much, just asking Zhao Ying to wait and see when the wheat is ripe in the coming year.
During this period, Zhongxin and Shuqi made mocking remarks, asking Wuxian if he already knew that governance was difficult and wanted to take back his big words, but was refuted by Zhao Wuxian's sentence "Good drinkers have no outstanding words".
Zhao Ying was quite satisfied, because he felt that Zhao Wuxian had faded away from the frivolity and impulsiveness of the previous days and began to become steady.
After the family rarely got together after the morning meal, the brothers were going to return to the territory again, and after saying goodbye, the three sons left one after another, but Zhao Ying stopped Wuxian alone, saying that he had something to tell him.
Under the jealous gaze of Zhongxin and Shu Qi, Zhao Wuxian followed Zhao Ying to the side hall, stood behind him, and asked respectfully, "Father, what else is the matter?" ”
Zhao Ying stroked his beautiful beard and said lightly: "After the beginning of spring next year, on the first and fifteenth days of each month, you will also go to the public school in the capital to report." ”
Zhao Wuxian was stunned: "Public school? What kind of place is that. ”
"That is, the study of the Gong family, the Gong clan was originally the name of the monarch's clan, and our Jin State hindered the matter of Quwo Daiyi, and the Gong clan was destroyed and the Huan clan was abolished. Later, he expelled the princes, and from then on, if the prince of the country was not the prince, he was not allowed to stay in the country after the crown. ”
"But when it came to becoming a prince, it was restored under the advice of my ancestor Zhao Xuanzi, but it was based on the children of Zhuqing. The public school is the place where the sons of the weak crown learn the six arts of gentlemen and politics, history, military, law, and pedestrian speech. ”
Zhao Wuxian suddenly realized, isn't this a training class for aristocratic officials.
Zhao Ying continued: "In addition to the Liuqing, there are more than a dozen children of doctors, whose complexity is comparable to that of the court, and it is also the muddy water that the children of the Qing clan must pass through before entering politics. This time, I lost to Fan, Zhi, and BOC in diplomacy, and when you get to the public school, you have to overpower these three children, don't lose my Zhao face! As for the Wei and Han families, you should also try your best to make friends. ”
"The boy will not let his father down!"
Zhao Wuxian was submissive on his lips, but he was complaining in his heart: "Everyone is playing with their fathers, but your father has lost in the political battle, but he is counting on fighting his son to win back face?" How unreasonable is that......"
But he is full of expectations for the spring of the coming year, and although he is only a few dozen miles away, Zhao Wuxian has never entered the capital Xinjiang since he came to this era.
Who will be his friend and who will be his enemy?
Have the protagonists of the three divisions grown up?
In the original history, the Zhibo who forced Zhao Xiangzi to retreat step by step and almost wiped out the Zhao family, is also there?
Thinking of this, Zhao Wuxian went down the steps of the palace gate and stepped onto the black horse, and when he was compared, there was an embroidered sachet in his arms.
It was his sister Ji Huan who made it for him, knowing that he liked Xuanse, so he used black thread to weave it finely, containing herbs such as Jiang Li, Bizhi, Qiulan, etc., which were worn on the gentleman's body, and had the effects of driving away evil spirits, deodorizing, and refreshing the spirit.
And what Ji Ying wanted to express, Zhao Wuxian knew in his heart.
He struck the knot on his horse and sang in a low voice:
"Qingqingzi Pei, I think about it. Even if I don't go, Zining won't come? ”
"Pick and choose, in the city. Not seen for a day, like March! ”
For Ji Huan, Zhao Wuxian has an indescribable emotion, because the two souls in the past and present lives are mixed together, she is not only the sister of Wuxian, but also the object of Wuxian's secret affection. Since he went to Chengyi, hasn't he been "a day away, like March"?
Behind him, on the tall city gate of the lower palace, there was a red-clothed beauty leaning on the bronze pillar and watching him leave......
……
Fan's private town, nearly eighty years old, Fan Ying's white hair is pale, but he is still wearing rhino leather armor and standing on the city wall with a sword.
And behind him, there were thousands of Fan's private guards standing densely, like a forest of spears.
After hearing the spies' report that the Zhao clan had died down, Fan Ying let out a long sigh.
"It's a pity, I don't know which smart person persuaded Zhao Meng to quit this time. Tell the people in the city to retreat. ”
On the side, the son of Shangjun Zuo Zhong Xingyin and Fan Ying, Fan Ji came over and asked: "Fan Bo/Father, anyway, you are well prepared, it is better to strike first and assault the palace!" This time, the monarch is on our side, and it is expected that the Zhao family and the Han family are not opponents! ”
"Confused!" Fan Ying's answer was very simple, although he was old, his eyes were still sharp, and he let the erector help him take off his armor, after all, he was a dying old man, and this heavy armor was draped for a while, and he was actually a little tired.
It's no longer as young as when he was younger, Fan Ying couldn't help but think of the blood he had when he had just joined the army, and he and Luan Needle were two cars and two cars, and they charged towards the black and oppressive three armies of the Qin State together; I also remembered that during the Luan Ying Rebellion, he went to the Wei Mansion alone, and in front of thousands of Wei family armor soldiers, he held Wei Shu hostage with a white blade, forcing him to switch to Fan's decisiveness.
The glory of the past cannot be reproduced today, but it is a pity that he failed to lure Zhao Ying to make a move before he died, and by the way, it is a pity that he can only leave the disaster to his descendants.
And his son Fan Jiji, as well as his ally Zhong Xingyin, couldn't help but feel disappointed in their short-sightedness.
"Do you think that if I, Fan and Bank of China, attack Zhao first, Zhibo's old fox will stand by and watch? I'm afraid that when the time comes, he and the Wei family will ask for the order of the monarch, and take the people of Xinjiang to destroy my Fan family, Bank of China, and even Zhao and Han together! ”
"Death to the first culprit! You have to remember this, you must not disobey it, the Fox Clan, the Xian Clan, the Luan Clan, are there still few Qing clans who died under this iron law? ”
Who made this unwritten rule? Fan Ying rubbed his temples, and he remembered that it was Zhao Xuanzi, the man known as the "Summer Sun", who was the one who set a precedent for the dictatorship of the Jin Guoqing clan.
Hey, it's the nasty Zhao again.
However, with Zhao Xuanzi's power back then, only twenty years after his death, the Zhao family had difficulties in going to the palace because of the disgrace of his descendants. Fan Ying consciously felt that his control over the situation in the Jin Kingdom was not as good as Zhao Xuanzi, and his body knew that he might not have a few years to live.
It seems that it is better to train the next generation earlier......
"Ji She, this matter is over, you go and call Ah Jia and Ah He, and from next month, let them go to Xinjiang Public School."
"Since our older generation didn't win or lose, the future depends on their young people!"
……
Ask for collections, ask for recommendations, and the second one is after 14 o'clock......
