517, the rat in the room knows the building
"Zhou Gong, this is in the city!"
"No, this is in the city, and now except for that one, who doesn't say that Zhou Gonggong is loyal to the country and loyal? Originally, it was said that a traitor like Geng Nanzhong deceived that one, so he misunderstood Zhou Gong, but now, Geng Nanzhong has been expelled, and that one is still the same...... Since Zhou Gong has no problem, that one must have a problem! ”
The person who spoke was not in Yingtian, but in Bianjing. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhou Quan agreed to Zong Ze's request, and he personally did not come forward with the Donghai Chamber of Commerce to allocate 100,000 stone of grain and 200,000 silver yuan into Beijing, thinking that Zong Ze would recruit Zhuang Yong to consolidate the defense of Bianjing City.
It's just that the news of Zhou Quan's agreement and the content of his promise have already reached the Beijing division before Zong Ze set off from Yingtianfu to return to Beijing.
Newspapers are the main force that delivers news.
After Zhao Huan and the Jin people reached a "peace agreement", the Jin people hoarded fifteen miles north of the capital, and the traffic in the east, west and south directions of the capital was not isolated, so the communication with the outside world was still very smooth.
When the newspaper sent the news that Zong Ze took over as the secretary of the military department and borrowed a large amount of money and food from Zhou Quan back to the Beijing Division, the entire Beijing Division seemed to be relieved.
Even the golden people just outside the city don't seem to be so terrifying.
Inside and outside the capital, in the streets and alleys, Zhou Quan's name is sung, and not only that, but as the newspaper publicizes the matter, all parts of Gyeonggi and even the whole world will know about it.
Even if he knew that this was Zhou Quan's righteousness in the city, the people of the world felt that such a leader of the city's benevolence and righteousness was better than the current emperor Zhao Huan, who was all over the capital to loot gold and silver and use it as a peace negotiation fee.
"The Son of Heaven actually agreed to the peace conditions of the Jin people, and has already sent 100,000 taels of gold!"
"It's not Geng Nanzhong and other traitors who caused the trouble, if they hadn't stopped it, they would have summoned the Duke of Jiguo into Beijing earlier, where would the soldiers come to the city, and even the Son of Heaven would have been forced out of the city as a hostage."
"Geng Nanzhong, this dog thief should be punished!"
Geng Nanzhong sat in the long pavilion, listening to such a whisper outside, his face was red and white. He slammed the stone case hard, but the stone case was not broken, and his hand was painful.
In front of him, there were not many people who came to see him off, and they were all small officials with the size of sesame mung beans, and Zhang Bangchang was one of the more outstanding ones. After Geng Nanzhong became the prime minister, he wanted to invoke a helper, who was originally close to Tong Guan, but after Tong Guan's downfall, he lost his backer in the court, so he threw himself on Geng Nanzhong's side.
It's just that Zhang Bangchang didn't expect that his new backer would fall faster than Tong Guan.
"Eun Xiang doesn't need to pay attention to the words of such ignorant villains." Seeing him like this, Zhang Bangchang comforted him: "The Holy Family of the Son of Heaven is still here, this time it is just a small setback, and if you know the heavens, you can be tomorrow's son's mind." ”
Ying Tianfu is a key node, and Geng Nanzhong knew that Ying Tian was here to block Zhou Quan's influence. Of course, Geng Nanzhong understood this, after he was demoted, Zhao Huan specially left him in the palace and talked with him secretly for an hour and a half, and many of them made him feel deeply responsible.
"I know, after I go, there is any news in Beijing, and talk to me in time." Packing up his mood, Geng Nanzhong instructed Zhang Bangchang.
In a secret conversation with Zhao Huan before leaving, he recommended Zhang Bangchang to Zhao Huan, although Zhao Huan only gave Zhang Bangchang a petty official like Julang, but this position can be by Zhao Huan's side at any time, which is very important.
If it weren't for that, how could a figure like Zhang Bangchang be willing to be used by Geng Nanzhong, who had already lost power!
"Rest assured, in the court, there are sons of heaven inside, and there are subordinate officials outside, they will keep an eye on those chaotic ministers and thieves, and they will not let them mess with the Great Song Dynasty!" Zhang Bangchang swore an oath.
Geng Nanzhong is not very relieved about this.
Now Geng Nanzhong also has a clear understanding of Zhao Huan, this young son of heaven, if he is placed in the peaceful season, he may barely be able to be a king of success, tempered for more than ten or twenty years, and barely become an emperor of a mediocre level.
But now, he's just a fool.
Geng Nanzhong was about to say more, when he suddenly glanced at a figure and stood up, he didn't care about Zhang Bangchang, but pointed out: "Bring this guy in for me!" ”
He has his own companion as an attendant, and his companion as he follows the past, and grabs the person he points to.
The man was unkempt and looked like a beggar, Zhang Bangchang felt a little strange in his heart, he didn't know who he was, but when the man was dragged into the pavilion, Zhang Bangchang also recognized it: "Qin Hui! ”
It was Qin Hui who was ordered by Zhao Huan to send Yue Fei the twelfth gold medal!
After all, he had a holy decree, and although Yue Fei hated him deeply, he did not kill him on the spot, and after capturing Ah Guta, he released him - he traveled day and night, rushed back to Beijing, and heard the news that Wu Qimai had been captured by Han Shizhong halfway.
As soon as he saw Geng Nanzhong, Qin Hui cried and fell to the ground: "Enxiang, the subordinate officials are incompetent, and they are entrusted by Enxiang!" ”
Geng Nanzhong was also angry, at the beginning, Qin Hui patted his chest and packed the ticket, saying that he could say that he could move Yue Fei, but it turned out to be Yue Fei's help to capture Yanjing, after the news reached Beijing, some people simply laughed at Qin Hui, saying that the imperial court should give him a promotion and knighthood, just for his strength in capturing Yanjing.
Eager to kick this guy over, Geng Nanzhong spent his old strength to suppress the anger in his heart: "Say, what's going on over there in Yanjing!" ”
Yue Fei was able to capture Yanjing in one day and one night, and broke 50,000 Jin people with less than 20,000 troops, this news is too shocking, and there is no specific report on the details of the court, so Geng Nanzhong will ask this.
Qin Hui stammered and told him about his experience in the escort army, naturally downplaying what he was fooled for, and desperately saying about the cunning of Zhou Quan and Yue Fei, and at the end, he said with a crying voice: "Enxiang, it's not that the lower officials don't work hard, it's really that Yue Fei is too cunning." Xia Guan always thought that he was a straight man and could be bullied, but he never thought that he would be loyal to the outside and traitorous inside......"
"Shut up!" Geng Nanzhong scolded, what's the use of this kind of crying?
Now that he is not the ruler, Qin Hui is useless, so it's better to send him away.
Geng Nanzhong thought so, but he was about to speak, but he noticed that Qin Hui's expression was a little strange, and he asked at the moment, "What else do you have to say?" ”
"Enxiang, Zhou Quan, Yue Fei, will be the mortal enemies of the Great Song Dynasty, if they can't be removed, I am afraid that the imperial court will not exist, and we are scholars like us, there will be no more days!" Qin Hui said.
There was still some fear in his eyes when he said this.
He is an extremely smart person, when he was in Yue Fei's army, he did not spend less time observing this army, and also tried every means to chat with the soldiers and officers in the army, knocking on the side from their mouths, although he did not get any secrets, it was enough for Qin Hui to know what kind of army it was.
Every ordinary soldier was literate and could count, and in the Great Song Dynasty, he could act as an official. In addition to military skills, what they learned did include how to handle daily government affairs - Zhou Quan did not train them as consumables on the battlefield at all, but as grassroots officials of the state to educate them.
If you think about it carefully, the Donghai Chamber of Commerce has spread over most of the commercial channels of the Great Song Dynasty and even overseas, and there are tens of thousands of such people as the backbone, as well as tens of thousands of such people on the construction site of the Beijing-Xu Railway...... In this way, the number of people in Zhou Quan's hands who can be grassroots officials like this is probably nearly 100,000!
What does this mean?
After thinking deeply, Qin Hui finally realized that Zhou Quan's arrangement was not just as simple as stealing the country and becoming the king.
In fact, if Zhou Quan just learned from Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin and replaced the Zhao family, Qin Hui would definitely not be so afraid, anyway, his loyalty to the Zhao family would be like that.
But now he realizes that what Zhou Quan wants to cut is not only the foundation of the Zhao family, but also the foundation of the civil official system formed since Li Tang and even since the Han Dynasty.
Compared with replacing the world with one family name, Zhou Quan's ambition is much greater!
After thinking about this, how could Qin Hui not be afraid?
To put it mildly, the Zhao family is not the emperor, and someone else is the emperor, and Confucian scholars can still be officials, even if they themselves want to play the role of loyal ministers and refuse to go out, their children and grandchildren, students, will also come out to participate in the imperial examination of the new dynasty, and then become the ruling class of the new dynasty, and may even overthrow the emperor and become the de facto ruler.
But Zhou Quan kicked out the Confucian system, got rid of the shackles of Xu officials, and cultivated his own talents through compulsory education and adult education, which not only made Qin Hui's generation desperate, but also made their disciples and grandchildren and future generations no longer have the possibility of ascending to the position of minister through Confucianism.
When Wang Anshi changed the law, in order to train officials and advocate new learning, after all, he still belonged to a branch of Confucianism, and if Zhou Quan succeeded, the trend of Confucianism would be completely ended after the Han Dynasty.
It was not a two-hundred-year dynasty that ended, but a thousand-year-long era!
Qin Hui told Geng Nanzhong and Zhang Bangchang what he saw and thought one by one, and the two of them were terrified.
"This is the public enemy of Confucianism, the world's Confucianism, should rise up and attack it!" Zhang Bangchang couldn't help but shout.
Geng Nanzhong even clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "If you don't know, you are almost deceived by this thief, yes, yes, I said why do I always feel that this thief is inappropriate, it turns out that this is the reason...... We should secretly publicize this matter so that all Confucian scholars in the world know about it, so that it is unpopular and will be inclined to us! ”
Seeing that Geng Nanzhong and Zhang Bangchang were so angry, Qin Hui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
There are truths and falsehoods in what he said, it is really his new understanding of Zhou Quan, and what is false is his return to Bianjing.
Before returning, he was captured by the Jin.
Qin Hui was captured by the scouts on the way back to Beijing, and then he saw an unexpected person in the area.
A Meng'an who escaped from Yanjing City, Ah Guda had already expected it, and handed over all the evidence of Qin Hui's collusion with the Jurchens to this person, and sent this person out of the city to the south before the escort army attacked, and came to the camp of Lifu.
It was these evidences that made Qin Hui have to bow his head and promise to act as a rebel of the Jin people after returning to Bianjing, and the first task he took was to destroy the relationship between the Song family and Zhou Quan at all costs! (To be continued.) )
