Zhao Zhe was speechless when asked by Yang Yi, Zhang Dian and others, indeed, the Empress Dowager Xuanren is the core of the old party, even if she is dead, she is still the banner of the old party and the spiritual leader of the old party; If we don't abolish her, if we don't bring down this banner, if we don't break the spiritual core of the old party, those who oppose the new policy will use her as the banner and stand up against the revolution one after another and endlessly!

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu was shaken again, his eyes fell on the edict, and he was silent.

Including Zhang Dan, everyone took off their official hats one after another, bowed down together, and urged them three times!

"Your Majesty, please!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

The loud voice echoed in the Baowen Pavilion!

Zhao Xu's eyes swept the ministers with complicated eyes, he knew very well in his heart that these people were the cornerstone of his order to run the world, these people were loyal to themselves and to the new policy, if there were no these people, in the case that he was seriously ill and could not go to the court, I am afraid that he has been isolated from inside and outside, and lost control of the government.

It is precisely because of these people that he can still command the world; Just as Xuanren had the allegiance of Lu Dafang and others, even if he was seriously ill several times, he could still firmly control the government; Yang Yi and others forced each other to resign collectively, this is indeed forcing the palace, because everyone knows that there is no other way than this step!

Rather than waiting for the old party to belittle everyone in the future, it is better to let go now, which may cause a rift between the new party and Zhao Xu, but compared to the terrible consequences of not being able to abolish the Empress Dowager Xuanren, this rift is bearable.

Zhao Xu was forced to do so, and he was really angry in his heart, and he really wanted to remove all these people!

But the dismissal of these men, and the departure of these staunchest supporters, are no different from digging one's own grave; The New Deal will be destroyed immediately, the old party will rebound strongly, his personal prestige will fall to a low point with the failure of the New Deal, and he will soon lose control of the government as an emperor who is too ill to control the court; In the Baowen Pavilion, there was such a stalemate between the monarchs and ministers, the air condensed, and the sound of everyone's heartbeat was clearly audible, until a long time later, Zhao Xu slowly spread out the grass edict with a calm face, and picked up the imperial seal with difficulty!

Everyone held their breath all at once, staring intently at his right hand holding the imperial seal!

If this hand falls, history will change!

The fate of the Great Song Dynasty will deviate from its original trajectory!

Perhaps there will be no more Jingkang shame, no more Song dynasty moving south, and no more the first fall of China!

"Your Majesty, please!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

The crowd shouted again and again!

Bang!

Zhao Xu used all his strength, almost by smashing, to cover the imperial seal heavily! Then he threw down the holy decree in a rage and looked coldly at the ministers below.

Zhang Duan secretly breathed a long sigh, put on his official hat again, solemnly held the holy decree in both hands, held it high above the top, and led the ministers to respectfully bow to Zhao Xu again.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"I'm still alive? I'm afraid that tomorrow I will be accused by the people of the world as a rebellious and unfilial king, and I will return to the Holy Ming? Get lost! Get out of here! ”

Zhao Xu was furious, shouting loudly as if venting, and a strange flush appeared on his originally pale face.

"Your Majesty may indeed be charged with rebellion and unfilial piety for a long time, but the ministers firmly believe that Qingshi will one day correct Your Majesty's name, and the people of the world will one day be full of gratitude for Your Majesty's decision today!"

"Yang Yi! If you say one more thing, do you really think that I can't demote you to Lingnan? Get lost! ”

In Zhao Xu's furious voice, everyone withdrew from the Baowen Pavilion, and then rushed to Shangshu Province in the face of the brilliant morning sun.

Victory! The rising sun of victory is so brilliant!

Perhaps, before the old party received the signal of a general attack, their handsome banner had already been smashed to pieces by the new party. Perhaps, the sound of Longyou's collapse is their death knell, the death knell that makes them tremble, echoing in the world of the Great Song Dynasty one by one!

With a smile of satisfaction, everyone walked briskly and quickly threw themselves into the work of cleaning up the battlefield:

Although Shang Qingren, the chamberlain of Longyou's palace, must be immediately detained; Chen Liu's rebellion needs to find out the truth as soon as possible and make it known to the world; The fate of the Queen Mother needs to be quickly agreed; The surging opposition from all over the world needs to be dealt with in advance; Zeng Bu needed to find a suitable reason to immediately belittle; …… As soon as the edict to abolish the Empress Dowager Xuanren was promulgated, the whole world was in an uproar!

The streets of Tokyo are full of discussion about this matter; Groups of clan relatives and nobles came to Xuande Gate to knock and cry, hoping to save the 'female middle Yao Shun' in their hearts; Tai students, who had received nine years of old-style education, loudly criticized in the restaurant tea shop, and took the Yuanfeng list of those years as the benchmark, and went through the list of 'power traitors' one by one in the court and the middle of the country with righteous indignation, and even dared to scold and foam at the mouth.

Ryuyu Palace.

The string of sandalwood Buddha beads was scattered all over the place, and the Queen Mother never dreamed that what she was waiting for was not the urgent report of the Chen Liu's rebellion, not the response of the relatives and nobles of the clan in Beijing and the old party in the world, besieged from all sides; It's not that the New Party has collapsed and the New Deal has come to an abrupt end; What I was waiting for was such earth-shattering news!

Why? Wasn't the edict to abolish the Empress Dowager Xuanren burned by the official family in front of Concubine Zhu?

Why is this the case?

Empress Dowager Xiang's heart was like ashes, her head and face were unintentionally freshened, after Mu Ran sat behind the golden screen, she began to curse Concubine Zhu over and over again in her heart, the eyeliner that was carefully arranged in Baowen Pavilion before, after rushing to Longyou Palace last night and reporting, she was discovered by Jiao Shou and others, and lost this eyeliner, what happened in Baowen Pavilion this morning, Empress Dowager Xiang couldn't know at all. In her opinion, except for Concubine Zhu, I'm afraid no one can make Zhao Xu, who has an extreme personality, change his mind.

"This vile and vicious woman!"

scolded the Queen Mother, frantically knocked down the screen in front of him, smashed the flower porcelain on the shelf, and smashed everything that could be smashed around him to the ground...... Finished! All ingenuity was in vain.

"Shang Qingren, you say! Why is this the case? Why? Xiang Xiang slapped the Empress Dowager hard in Shang Qingren's face, beating him all over the blood.

Shang Qingren knelt on the ground in a hurry, his fear did not come from the beating and scolding of the Empress Dowager, he knew better than anyone that he was finished, and the Empress Dowager Xiang might still be able to save her life, but as the wings of the Empress Dowager Xiang, he would never escape the punishment of capital punishment.

"Queen Mother! Save the minions! For the sake of the minions who have been loyal and waiting for the left and right, the Queen Mother, save the minions! ”

Shang Qingren cried and cried, jumped up and grabbed the skirt of the Empress Dowager Xiang, but was kicked on the door by the Empress Dowager Xiang, and turned over twice like a gourd rolling on the ground.

"Save you? It's all your doing! If it weren't for the delay of Chen Liu's matter for a day, would the old body have fallen into such a field? Now you want to save you? Who will save the old man? Who will save the old man? ”

As soon as the Empress Dowager finished yelling, Su Jue outside the palace rushed in with the people of the Imperial City Division, and couldn't help but escort Shang Qingren, who was full of despair, out!

At the same time, under the strong command of Shangshu Province, Chen Liuzhi County Qianlong, county governor Hu Jingxin, Shang Qingya, the head of the Shang family, and others were escorted into Beijing on the same day; He Shikuan opened the trial with a thunderous force, and the fact that Shang Qingren's brothers colluded with Qian Long and others to deliberately incite the people to rebel and conspire to obstruct the new policy was quickly made public.

The Shang family's property was confiscated and used to compensate the dead and injured Chen Liuren in the riots, and several masterminds were all sentenced to death; Although the Empress Dowager Xiang was not immediately deposed, she was ordered to live in Yaohua Palace, with a clear heart and pray for Emperor Shenzong's filial piety.

Zeng Bu disobeyed the holy decree and delayed the military situation, causing Chen Liumin to be convicted of being out of control and degraded to Fangzhou.

This storm is far from over!

With Xuanren being posthumously deposed as a concubine, Sima Guang, Lu Dafang, Han Zhongyan and others were all convicted of conspiring to abolish the establishment and cause chaos in the dynasty; Sima Guangjia pursued his guilt and agreed to dig up the grave and whip his corpse! Lu Dafang, Han Zhongyan, Liu Zhi and others died!

Da Song does not kill scholars, except for the crime of rebellion!

Chasing down the Empress Dowager Xuanren and convicting Sima Guang, Lu Dafang and others of rebellion is not just a retaliation launched by the New Party for personal grievances, it is a final showdown in the name of righteousness!

If the New Party wins, Gao Taotao, Sima Guang and others will be branded as sinners of history, kicked off the altar and nailed to the frame of shame, so that their repeal of the New Deal can be sealed and their halo and influence can be removed.

If the new party is defeated, Gao Taotao will continue to be the female middle school Yao Shun, Sima Guang and others will continue to be the gentlemen who are still worshiped after a thousand years, and the new party headed by Zhang Dian will inevitably be listed on the "List of Traitorous Ministers" and become the sinners who will be conclusive in later generations, trigger the party struggle of the Great Song Dynasty, and eventually lead to the fall of the Great Song Dynasty.

History may be written by different people, and those who are on the "List of Traitorous Ministers" may no longer be the cadres of the New Party, but Sima Guang and others!

Sima Guang's personal ethics is not easy to say, there is no record of his private morality in the history books, but his life, basically there are no commendable political achievements, strictly speaking, he is not suitable to be a high-ranking official, his most suitable position is to go to Taixue to teach history; The reason why his reputation is so high, and even ranked first in the Great Song Dynasty, is all because he wrote a "Zizhi Tongjian", which is the inherent respect for literati in the land of China. People subconsciously think that as long as they are family, historians, and university scholars, they are gentlemen and good people, but in fact, where is this?

Knowledge and character are completely different things, and from Sima Guang's ability to pull out the fig leaf of "changing the mother to the child", his character is very questionable. At the very least, it can be said that he is not very gentlemanly in politics, and he will do almost anything to achieve his goals.

Now the New Party has won! Sima Guang's aura will be shattered, he and Gao Taotao are the spiritual pillars of the old party, as these two people are trampled to the ground, the old party can only wait to slowly disappear!

Yang Yi stood in front of the window of Shangshu Province, the brilliant morning sun shining on his face, warm, until this moment, he was sure that the New Party had really won! In an incomparably strong way, he approached the middle palace, captured the flag, and won! Win! Really won!
