Chapter 621: The Glory of Imperial History
"You, use power for personal gain!" Wu Dingchen said angrily.
Many ministers frowned, it was normal at the beginning, what is a minister, specifically for the ministers and various policies, the imperial history also has another right, you can hear about things, the wind is outside, it's not good, the typhoon is coming, the breeze of the third or second level can be said to be a typhoon, but there is no mistake.
Of course, when it comes down to talking, listen to it.
The ministers have the right to speak, and the emperor has the right to listen.
Yan Chen blamed the court for taking in the father and daughter, Zheng Lang can also answer, or not, it is best to answer, to explain the minister's doubts. What is the court meeting, it is not a regular palace meeting to meet the emperor, the real intention of the court meeting is to deal with difficult problems of the country and work together. Zheng Lang replied, it can't be regarded as a court dispute, it can't even be regarded as a debate, it can only be regarded as an explanation and interpretation, which is a normal procedure.
As for whether Wu Dingchen is from the Jia Chang Dynasty or not, he can't make a hasty decision.
Wu Dingchen in the matter of Li Jing, was a patter of Jia Changchao, but then his performance, it was difficult for everyone to make a conclusion about him, the court was ready to summon Xia Zhu as the prime minister, it was Wu Dingchen who took the lead in speaking, impeached Xia Zhu for killing his personal servant in Bingzhou, and then discussed with the official and the imperial history that Xia Zhu and Chen Zhizhong were not in agreement and could not work together.
Dare to speak, dare to speak is a good history.
For this reason alone, Wu Dingchen issued Jiaozhi as a messenger, where is Jiaozhi? Even when Lu Yijian was alive, he didn't dare to do this.
Even Zhao Zhen looked at Zheng Lang with puzzlement.
Zheng Lang had to walk out of the train and hand it over to the eunuch to Zhao Zhen.
This is also not true.
At the court meeting, the ministers said and acted in a book, which was kept for archiving, but the book was not in the form of handing, but said aloud, and after speaking, it was presented again as an archive, and it was said so that everyone could discuss it together.
Zhao Zhenhu looked at the memora in front of him suspiciously, it was not very long. It's just a short piece of text. After reading it, he stared at Wu Dingchen coldly, his face quickly returned to calm, and said, "Quasi-play." ”
Then he said, "Scatter." ”
The ministers were inexplicable. Wu Dingchen's face was gloomy, not to mention Jiaozhi, even Lingnan was like hell in the eyes of the Beijing officials of the Song Dynasty.
Wang Yaochen followed Zheng Lang and asked quietly: "Xingzhi, what did you say on the fold?" ”
The emperor actually played on the spot, which made Wang Yaochen very puzzled.
Yan Chen flocked up, and the father and daughter were not allowed to accept the words. Doubts arose in my mind. ”
"Yes, the Khitan even dared to take in Brother Ning Ling, why didn't our Great Song Dynasty dare to take in the non-emigrants."
Zheng Lang did not answer, the Khitan was able to take in Brother Ning Ling, but the Song Dynasty took in the Yi family, which would inevitably cause controversy, and the idea of stealing peace has penetrated into the bones and spleens of many Wenchen, Hugh said now. See how Yue Fei died? Can Qin Hui and Zhao Gou really kill Yue Fei with just two people? There are not too many Wenchen who support killing Yue Fei and seeking peace with Jin Guo. He added: "I asked a few soldiers from the special battalion to secretly investigate. Watching the movements of the Western Xia envoy and his party, he learned that Yang Shousu had secretly sent his subordinates to bring some gifts to visit Wu Dingchen's house. This person left after saying something to the Wu family, and when he went, he took several gift boxes with him, and when he came back, he was empty-handed. ”
"This damn Wu Dingchen!" Wang Yaochen said hatefully.
It was not the first time that Xixia had done such a thing, but Wu Dingchen, as a minister, actually ignored the country and accepted bribes from Xixia. The crime is added to the first degree, don't say that you want to make Jiaozhi, even if you degrade Lingnan, it is not too much. No wonder the emperor agreed to Zheng Lang's advice.
Zheng Lang said: "What I am talking about is not only as a means of severe punishment, but also that most of the Lingnan officials are degraded for private crimes or dereliction of duty. Many incompetent, some officials and the Hao chieftain joined forces, the common people, and the imperial court policy was too weak, so that the various tribes in Lingnan became more and more unruly, and their desires were difficult to fill, and the country's center of gravity was the north and the west, ignoring the south, and there would be something in the south in the future, not only the south would have trouble, but even this Jiaozhi would be ambitious. ”…,
"Southern ......," Wang Yaochen muttered.
It's not that I'm afraid of Jiaozhi, but the land in the south is full of miasma, the climate is hot, far away from the capital, the cost of war is higher, once something happens, I don't know how much it costs, if it is not handled properly, even the three armies will have epidemics in that bad weather, which is also the reason why the imperial court has been spending money to buy security.
"Otherwise, why do you think I sent so many agents to the south? If there is nothing to do in the south, I dare to lead my troops to the south, and I must not let Yanchen drown his saliva alive. ”
Wang Yaochen shook his head.
In the Zhao Zhen Dynasty, Yanchen became more and more bold, daring to speak up, and did play a supervisory role, but there was a drawback, most of the time they also dared to talk nonsense, especially some Yanchen thought that the prime minister was broken down as their own glory. Sometimes it's getting overdone.
Not necessarily, there are bad sides and good sides. Zheng Lang can endure this, it is really too difficult to want these lawless ministers to seek truth from facts, but there is a basic principle, not to betray the country because of personal interests.
Wu Dingchen can't get used to Xia Zhu, and he can't get used to himself, when he is in the summer, he has made great contributions, and has a high prestige in Yanchen, so after receiving Yang Shousu's gift, he instigated Yanchen to attack himself, thinking of this, Zheng Lang said: "Let's go to the post house." ”
When he came to the post house and saw Yang Shousu, Zheng Lang said coldly: "Yang Shousu, don't make small movements under my eyelids, it's useless to do it, if you do it again, I will immediately order all private salt passages to be closed, do you believe it or not?" ”
Intimidated, Zheng Lang is not enough.
Zheng Lang was really angry this time, it would be better if Yang Shousu was a member of the party, but no, he was an authentic Han person, a native of the Central Plains, don't look at it now, in fact, his family was poor in the Song Dynasty, if it weren't for the Song Dynasty's national study policy, in the Han and Tang Dynasties, he wouldn't even have the opportunity to study. The traitor did this, leaving Zheng Lang speechless.
simply ordered the mobilization of two battalions of forbidden soldiers, learned from Li Yuanhao, and in the name of protection, the post house was taken into custody, so that Yang Shousu and his party were completely isolated from the people of the capital.
The attitude became more and more tough, and some Yanchen were dissatisfied, and in the end, it was Zhao Zhen who revealed the truth in the capital, and these Yanchen did not keep silent.
Yang Shousu was even more disappointed.
Behind Zheng Lang's strength also means one thing, the Song Dynasty emperor's support for Zheng Lang's hardline policy.
Compared with the recklessness of the Khitan, this prime minister's scheming is deeper, which is the most terrifying.
What made him even more worried was that he didn't hide the false Pang, he replied, the speed was very fast, the three Khitan armies fired together, the fire burned to the eyebrows, and he didn't hide the false Pang and didn't have the heart to drag it out any longer. In the letter, he directly blamed him for procrastination. Isn't it just a wild queen, who hurriedly agreed to get the benefits, is it important to fight with the Khitan now, or is it not important to move the clan?
Short-sighted guys!
But Yang Shousu dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak. In the past six months, in order to purge, he has killed many ministers. He was frustrated to make an agreement with the Song Dynasty, and there was not even a single document on paper, it was only a verbal agreement.
Sending this group away, some Wenchen, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, was still worried in their hearts. I don't know how Western Xia relieved this breath and took revenge on the Song Dynasty.
Zheng Lang did not explain further.
Not for fear of their revenge. Rather, they are afraid that they will not dare to retaliate.
As long as this battle is arranged by himself, Xia Liao will continue for several years, and when it gets to that point, the foundation of Western Xia will be empty. As long as they dare to retaliate and the division is famous, Zheng Lang doesn't mind taking down Western Xia in advance.
Continue to focus on the Yellow River.
Zhao Zhen issued an edict and ordered Tianzhang Pavilion to be systematized, Shi Changyan was in charge of the river repair, and Wang Deji was in charge of the river. Zhang Ge and Zhang Shicheng were in charge of the Diei estuary.
None of these four are the best candidates, but Zheng Lang didn't come up with a good way, so he didn't make a sound. …,
Under the edict. Yanchen impeached Wang Deji for dereliction of duty, this year's Yellow River is huge, Zhongshu has ordered since May, with the state capitals along the river to be strictly vigilant, or there is such an unprecedented big burst of embankment, dereliction of duty is so, what qualifications does Wang Deji have to take charge of the Gouzhou River affairs together?
and issued another edict, ordering Guo Chengyou to deploy Zhizhou for the repair of the river in Lanzhou, and let Yan Du and Zhizhou also take charge of the matter of repairing the river.
The candidate is still not ideal. Except for Yan Du, the other three are not good at water conservancy.
Zheng Lang still didn't say anything, and seemed to have returned to the low-key time of the first prime minister.
Zhao Zhen felt strange and asked, "Zheng Qing, why didn't you say anything?" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has not yet thought of a good plan. Therefore, it is not said. These days, Zheng Lang carefully sorted out the knowledge he remembered, the Yellow River broke this time, officially changed to two ways, one for the east flow, one for the north flow, can not keep all the two flows, either take its north flow, or take its east flow, from Song Renzong dispute, until Song Shenzong, Zhezong, until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, there has been no good policy. Those who agreed with the northward stream included Ouyang Xiu, Fan Chunren, Su Zhe, Fan Bailu and other important ministers, and those who went east included Jia Changchao, Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo, Wang Anshi and others. The eastward stream dominated the mainstream, and once let Wang Anshi completely cut off the northward stream, which seemed to be successful, but in fact failed in the end. The same failure to talk about the North Stream.
There is no reference material, unless you take the first policy you offer, but then you need to use countless manpower, material and financial resources, and it will take at least several years to make a contribution. The imperial court has so much financial resources to use? Or learn from Yang Guang and don't care about the lives of the people?
After dispersing, Zheng Lang said to Ye Qingchen: "Brother Daoqing, let's go to the Yellow River to have a look." ”
Learning from others, Ye Qingchen is very proficient in water conservancy, see if Ye Qingchen has a good way. The two of them came to the Yellow River together, and by August, the river had begun to level out, and with the addition of tens of thousands of square kilometers of super reservoirs in the north of Shanzhou, the water of the Yellow River had already dropped. The river gently laps against the embankment, like a lullaby. The sound of the waves was very soft, but the river was muddy, like a large mass of muddy water, flowing eastward.
Zheng Lang walked down the embankment, put his hand into the river, and then took it out, and even his hand seemed to be stained with a layer of turbidity.
Turning his head and asking, "Brother Daoqing, what is your strategy for controlling the Yellow River?" ”
Ye Qingchen spread his hands and said, "Xingzhi, you don't have a good plan, let me have a good plan." The way to control the river is to use your method to flush less water and drain downstream. The imperial court does not have this fund, and in my opinion, this is probably still a palliative measure. Either there is a ban on farming and grazing in the upper reaches of the country, which is not possible. ”
Zheng Lang was thinking, Ye Qingchen was also thinking, he couldn't think of it either, and in the end, like Zheng Lang, he simply shut up and didn't say anything. Zheng Lang sighed: "This prime minister is not easy to do." ”
Ye Qingchen laughed and laughed.
The two returned to the capital, and Zheng Lang got a message that he had just arrived in the capital with his family.
"Oh," Zheng Lang replied lightly.
aroused his curiosity, not only aroused his curiosity, but many people were curious, what kind of appearance did the Wuyi clan give birth to, which can make a generation of heroes fascinated? As soon as Wuyijieshan arrived in the capital, it caused onlookers, but to the disappointment of the audience, the father and son of Wuyijieshan were riding horses, and Wuyi's family was sitting in a carriage and never showed up.
Zhao Zhen came to Zhongshu, asked several prime ministers to sit down, and asked, "Can I see the queen of Western Xia?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
