Chapter 7: Interview with the Divine Sect
Outside the palace Qinzheng Palace, a sedan chair stopped there, which was specially approved by Zhao Ji, which shows Zhao Ji's respect for the people in the sedan chair. The curtain of the sedan chair www.biquge.info opened and leaned out from the sedan chair, this person was sixty or seventy years old, and he did not seem to appreciate the emperor's grace who could sit in the sedan chair to the palace. His expression was very serious, he limped up the steps of the Qinzheng Hall with his head held high, and from his frowning brows and closed lips, he seemed to be able to see a bit of righteousness and awe-inspiring look at death.
The eunuch outside the palace gate spread to the palace, and Zheng Guogong Fu Bi came to see him. On the left and right of the door, a minister and eunuch walked in front of Fu Bi under Zhao Ji's order, and helped Fu Bi to cross the threshold of the temple door and walked straight to the main hall. Seeing Zhao Xuan, who was sitting in a precarious position, Fu Bi respectfully said Long live our emperor. Then Zhao Ji sat down, and after Fu Bi thanked him, he sat there. looked up at Zhao Ji, waiting for Zhao Ji to ask.
Today, Zhao Ji summoned Fu Bi, and Fu Bi knew very well what it was for. It's not once or twice that I've been demoted, and the words of accompanying the king like a tiger are vividly reflected in Fu Bi. As soon as he came, he thought about it, no matter what Zhao Ji said, as long as it involved any new policies, changes and the like, he would rather not say a word than say much.
Looking at Fu Bi's expression, Zhao Ji knew that most of the results were inconclusive today. But you can't summon anyone, just sit with big eyes and eyes without saying a word. Besides, this old minister who has experienced the Qingli New Deal, even if he can't prescribe any panacea for governing the country, at least there should be some way to prescribe the right medicine.
Zhao Ji cleared his throat and asked straight to the point: "Zheng Guogong is an old minister who has experienced the four dynasties, and the official family wants to hear your strategy for governing the country and securing the country." β
Fu Bi said unhurriedly: "The emperor's preferences can't be known to anyone. If they knew, the wicked would come to cater to the association. You should be like the Divine with human beings, where good and evil are revealed by Themselves, and then rewarded or punished according to their deeds, so that there is no distinction between merit and sin of each person. β
It's another clichΓ©, Zhao Ji was tired of hearing this, he nodded patiently: "Zheng Guogong said this very much, this is what the official family should pay attention to." However, I want to know more about whether Zheng Guogong has more specific advice on governing the country and securing the country? β
Fu Bi said expressionlessly: "The Holy Lord wants to hear the specifics, right?" For example, at the moment, everyone knows that the saint wants to change, so there will be villains who cater to the saint, and I don't think it's advisable. β
Zhao Ji's expression was a little embarrassed, he was originally invited to give advice for himself, but he invited a gentleman to teach him a lesson. Fortunately, Zhao Ji is self-contained enough, and he has great respect for the old minister, he coughed twice to hide his past embarrassment and said: "This is probably because the official family is eager to change, and I will consider it myself in terms of employment." Zheng Guogong, as an advocate of the Qingli New Deal back then, does he have any good strategy? β
Fu Bi opened his eyes with an exaggerated expression, and looked at Zhao Ji with a very surprised expression: "Holy Lord, don't you know that the Qingli New Deal has failed after only a little more than a year?" β
Zhao Ji was nested there for a while, and mentally scolded this Fu Bi for saying that there was no useful sentence for a long time. Fortunately, Zhao Ji was influenced by the emperor's treatment of civil officials, and he ordered not to kill civil officials from the beginning of Taizu, and later civil officials could speak freely. This problem of directly talking to the emperor is all habitual. Zhao Ji can't break this convention, especially when he just ascended the throne and hired people.
After fixing his mind, Zhao Ji said: "The new policy of Qingli has failed, but you can sum up the lessons and lessons, especially ask Zheng Guogong for advice, so that I can revive my Great Song Dynasty." β
Hearing this, Fu Bi was also angry, Qingli administration failed, how can there be any experience, the rest is a lesson. I was already unlucky enough because of the Qingli New Deal, do I have to be unlucky again? What's more, the real failure is that Renzong is not firmly implemented, does he want to say to this little emperor that it is all your grandfather's fault? Thinking of this, Fu Bi stubbornly said: "It is not the same day, and besides, I am against the Holy Lord's new policy." β
Zhao Ji couldn't help frowning, and couldn't help thinking, if only Wang was around, he must have a way to deal with this old guy? If the king is beside him, how will the king brother solve it? Dragged out for a beating? Not at all! This rich man really made Zhao Ji scratch his head, and he said patiently: "Then what does Zheng Guogong think about the border matter?" β
Fu Bi said: "Your Majesty has not been in power for a long time, and when Bude is benevolent, I hope to be silent for twenty years. β
Zhao Ji was even more angry in his heart, Xixia Li Liangzuo sent troops to harass, and he was sending troops to go, dare to love this Fu Bi means that I am not Bude Xinghui? He couldn't help it this time, there seemed to be a pair of words hanging in front of his eyes, which read: The Tao is not the same, not the same!
Looking at Zhao Ji's deflated expression, Fu Bi said: "The minister is unwell and has leg problems, I want to resign and return to Luoyang to hope that the saint will give permission!" At this time, the old minister was really a little blind when he said such things, he thought that Zhao Ji would try his best to keep it, and then he persuaded the little emperor to dispel the idea of implementing the new policy. Who knew that as soon as his words came out, Zhao Ji said two words without thinking about it: "Quasi-play!" β
This time it's Fu Bi's turn to warm his heart, and the emperor promised too happily. The water that was spilled out of the words could not be collected again. Fu Bi got up to say goodbye, and Zhao Ji suddenly said, "Wait! β
Fu Bi's eyes lit up, did Zhao Ji change his mind?
"Zheng Guogong, since you are unwilling to help the official family fulfill their wishes, who do you think can do it? Sima Guangxing? β
Fu Bi smiled bitterly, he still didn't understand that Zhao Ji needed the officials to work together to do this, only in this way could his wish come true. What's more, relying on the father and son alone, how difficult it is to change.
"Sima Junshi is knowledgeable, he is an honest official, and if he is reused by the saint, he will definitely be able to become the right-hand man of the saint."
"Okay, I got it!" Zhao Ji didn't want to say more, thinking that his father had said that only Sima Guang in the Manchu Dynasty understood Yingzong's intention to change. As for why his father didn't use Sima Guang to do this, Zhao Ji still had some doubts in his heart.
With this doubt, Zhao Ji summoned Sima Guang again after Fu Bi said goodbye. Sima Guang didn't have Fu Bi's bitter and hateful look when he came, which made Zhao Ji feel more comfortable. Those polite words were avoided, and Zhao Ji asked very directly because he wanted to hear Sima Guang's essentials of governing the country.
Sima Guang has been thinking about this matter for the past few days, and the conversations of several old ministers in the political hall always come to Sima Guang's mind. He has been waiting for an opportunity for so many years, although just like the king said in the vertical arch hall, the power of the prime minister has now been divided and weakened, but who court official does not want to become the prime minister under one person and above ten thousand people? Especially after Shenzong Zhao Xuan ascended the throne, he also renamed his compilation of "Tongjian" as "Zizhi Tongjian", and personally wrote a preface on it. Doesn't this show that the Divine Sect favors him?
The homework was done, and finally Shenzong summoned him to ask about the way to govern the country, Sima Guang straightened his chest and said confidently: "The minister thinks that the three things to cultivate oneself are, one is benevolence, the second is wisdom, and the third is bravery." The three books of governing the country are to select sages, to reward and believe, and to punish strictly. In the past, when the minister was an official, he dedicated these six sentences to Renzong and Yingzong, and now he is dedicated to His Majesty, and the mechanics of the minister's life are all in it. β
Looking at Zhao Ji looking at himself in a daze, Sima Guang was secretly proud. For a long time, Zhao Ji nodded understandingly: "Does Sima Junshi have anything else to say?" β
Sima Guang shook his head: "I would like to dedicate these six words to the Holy One!" β
Zhao Ji opened his mouth: "Ah! That's it! Then you step back first! β
Sima Guang left happily, the more Zhao Ji thought about it, the more he didn't taste it, Sima Guang disappointed him too much, and this person was too pedantic. What does Sima Guang say have to do with his desire to govern the country? Zhao Ji thought about it, and regretted more and more that Wang Bian went to the front line, and Wang Bian didn't even have anyone around him who could discuss things and help him make decisions. Fortunately, at this time, Wang Anshi returned to the capital. But what made Zhao Ji strange was that Wang Anshi, who arrived in the capital, did not come to face the saint for a long time.
Zhao Ji has long heard about the discussions of officials in the court about Wang Anshi, for example, Wang Anshi's repeated refusal of the imperial court appointment is to sell his reputation and reputation, and he wants to wait for a higher position. But Zhao Ji doesn't think so, he knows Wang Anshi's talent, not to mention that Wang Anshi is Wang Bei's father, Wang Pan mentioned several times that his idea is from his father's book of ten thousand words, Zhao Ji also deliberately found out Wang Anshi's book of ten thousand words on Renzong, and the more he read it, the more he liked it.
But Wang Anshi didn't show up when he arrived in the capital, which made Zhao Ji a little embarrassed, isn't Wang Anshi like Wang described next to him? Or is he afraid that people will say that he will be reused by the court because his son is the king of Zhennan? Thinking about it, Zhao Ji thought of one person, that is, Han Jiang, the third envoy. In the early years, when Renzong was in power, he called Wang Anshi to be the judge of the group pastor, and it was Han Jiang who went to persuade Wang Anshi to take up the post at that time. Zhao Ji clearly remembers that it was also because he heard Wang Bi joke that his father was Bi Ma Wen and told himself "Journey to the West" in Pu Di that he knew Wang Pan and became a close friend since then.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ji secretly laughed, Bi Ma Wen back then is now about to give his order, this time the king has nothing to say, right? He called Han Jiang to talk to Wang Anshi and find out what Wang Anshi thought.
When Han Jiang came to see Wang Anshi, Wang Anshi had just returned from Ouyang Xiu's mansion, and Wang Anshi returned to the capital to visit his old friends in the past few days, and the more he knew about the things in the court, the more Wang Anshi felt that Zhao Ji really wanted and needed to change.
Hearing that Han Jiang was coming, Wang Anshi let Han Jiang to the study, and after some politeness, Han Jiang said: "It's really time for Jiefu to come back this time, I already knew that you had the idea of governing the country, but why don't you go to see the saint and talk to the saint?" β
Wang Anshi said mysteriously: "I'm waiting for someone, I should go when this person comes." β
Han Jiang looked at Wang Anshi: "Your shelf is still so big, who are you waiting for, I'll find him for you!" β
Wang Anshi smiled: "I'll wait for you!" Third Envoy Han Jiang, I'll wait for you to tell me, how anxious is the Holy One to see me? I'm not trying to hear from you, I want to hear ......"
