Chapter 804: Countdown (1)
Because of the mention of some Confucianism, although it compressed its word count, I had to take a long exam, and I owed three more. Fortunately, this Wu's Confucianism is almost finished. Let's explain loyalty and forgiveness, loyalty in the heart, and inner dedication, which is the so-called selflessness, or doing good deeds without leaving a name. That's why I say it's an ideal state. Forgiveness is as the heart, such as, to also, to forgive others according to oneself. If I want people to be good to me, I have to be good to people. On the other hand, if I am good to others, people must be good to me. The realm is still good, a little worse than the realm of loyalty, but more practical. It is not loyalty and forgiveness. I'm going to make up for it today.
========================
Fan Zhen went down, and no one knew the truth for the time being.
The ministers did not speak, but Han Wei, who knew the truth, was the first to speak, at this time Han Wei was the one who knew the system, and the knowledge system and the Hanlin bachelor were both officials of the two systems, and they were usually good friends with Fan Zhen.
Fan Zhen was decentralized, and Han Wei played in the hall and said: "If the king likes and dislikes, he should clearly see the reward and punishment, so as to show the world, so that people know what to avoid, and the customs can be moved." β
In the past, many ministers also talked about this problem to Zhao Zhen, rewarding meritorious rewards, punishing excessively punished, why rewarding, why punishing, the edict was written clearly and clearly, everyone looked at it, it turned out that it was rewarded for doing this, and everyone studied together. Or if you do this, you will be punished, and everyone will pay attention to it in the future to avoid making mistakes again.
According to Zheng Lang's opinion, this is not advisable.
Because the situation is changing, Zhang Yongzhishu can be said to be incomparable, but the poverty relief measure, giving rice money to the spring and summer coupons, and finally turned it into a drawback, and Han Jiang went down to correct it.
But there is a temporal effect.
Just as Lao Tzu said, the universe was originally nothing, then a point, then expanded, and finally collapsed, or it was still one, and it was nothing. In line with the view of the formation of the universe. That's right. However, this process will take hundreds of millions of trillions of years to achieve.
The history of human civilization is only a few thousand years, so why do you want to be hundreds of millions of trillions of years from now?
Therefore, Han Wei's proposal still has a lot of merits, everything is open, and he is not afraid of the master and the leader to use people with likes and dislikes. The positive meaning is far greater than the dissipative meaning.
Or change it to Zheng Lang's other sentence, do things to things, not people.
Again. Sages ponder. If Your Majesty mistakenly has a punishment, it is enough to show the beauty of good admonition. If you are not afraid of making mistakes, you are afraid of making mistakes and not correcting them. It is a good thing for a gentleman to know that he can change his mistakes.
He also said that Fan Zhencheng was guilty, and he could be punished by the canon, and if he was lost in words, he should be allowed to look like a minister. His Majesty deposed Qian Gongfu in front of him. China and foreign countries thought it was too heavy, and now they are out of the town, and everyone knows what it is called, and the ministers are afraid of it since then, and they dare not be loyal to His Majesty.
The ancestral family law of the Song Dynasty did not sin by words. Even if the Sword Pavilion is burned, it is just an old Confucian going crazy. What did Fan Zhen do, he wrote Zhou Gong twice, what kind of crime is this? If Zhou Gong is convicted after only writing twice, there may be something that refers to the deer as a horse in the future.
In the book, it is not reported.
Under Fan Town, someone has to fill the gap.
How big is the big black hole in the country. It can reach a year of expenditure of nearly 240 million yuan. You must know that at the peak of the Qingli War, the state expenditure in one year was less than 190 million. This black hole is unimaginably huge.
Later generations say that Zhao Ji and Wang Anshi are not good, yes, they are in too much of a hurry, but who is not in a hurry?
This was in the Song Dynasty. If it was in the Ming Dynasty, the expenditure of more than 200 million yuan a year would be pressed on the poor finances of the Ming Dynasty, even the immortal Jiajing would probably be in a hurry to hang himself.
This black hole is made in many ways.
For example, the inaction of the ruling party has caused a lot of waste, such as the flood last year, and the drought this year, for example, the reward is excessive, for example, the old emperor has died for several consecutive years, and the new emperor has succeeded to the throne, and there is a great loss, such as the war is going on in the northwest.
Another important reason is redundancy.
When Pang Ji was alive, it began to spread, so that Pang Ji was under control, and it did not increase, but it was not solved. Pang resigned after his illness, and although he occasionally entered the Chinese book to help, he finally left the court. Redundancy is spreading. According to historical records, there are more than twice as many officials in Beijing, and more than three times as many local officials in prefectures, counties, and counties.
Originally, more than 20 million officials were dismissed, although most of the extra officials were not bad officials, but only professional officials, and they had to be paid. Coupled with the abundance of rewards, it is now possible to pay 50 million or 60 million yuan to settle the problem.
Also, there are many officials, that is, there are many officials, but there are very few real errands, what should I do? So they ran one by one. That is, through the back door. Under the competition, corruption is rampant and officialdom is dark. Zhu Xi said objectively, when Han Fu first came, he had to dismantle and wash it, but he couldn't do it, and it was only at any time to go out and come back. It was good at the beginning, but then it didn't work at all, and what actually didn't work was not only Fu Bi and Han Qi, but also Ouyang Xiu and Wen Yanbo.
These gentlemen are rich and beautiful, and they are not bad in terms of morality, and they are not good at governance. When these people's ability to govern came later, not to mention that they were inferior to Lu Yi and Jian Pang, even Jia Changchao, Liu Zhu, Chen Zhizhong and the like were far inferior.
Zheng Lang knew where this black hole was, but he thought that he and Zhao Zhen had worked together to lay a good foundation, and the situation should not be as bad as it was in history.
He was somewhat underestimated.
Because of his vague call, the opposition was louder than in history, which restrained Han Qi and made Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu even more daring to act. If it really comes to the rule of inaction, the country will be bad. The real situation was far worse than he thought.
The officials are so redundant that they can't make the two systems vacant, and there is another point, among the officials of the two systems, Zhao Shu feels that Wang Qi can be the edict, and the rest are mostly incompetent. In fact, there were many officials in the two systems, such as Sima Guang and LΓΌ Gongshu, but although they were capable, they were all disgusted with Zhao Shu's Puyi case, so Zhao Shu considered them incompetent. Combining the two, Zhao Shu wanted to choose another minister with a gentle personality and not too radical, and one person entered his eyes, Zhang Fangping.
Just ask Ouyang Xiu.
asked the right person again, it has nothing to do with Zheng Lang, if that's the case, then half of the officials in the court can't use it.
This is a personal grudge between Ouyang Xiu and Zhang Fangping, who cheated Zhang Fangping several times, and then came to the pit again, saying: "Your Majesty, Zhang Fangping also has literary talent, but he is straight to evil. β
At this time, if you only study papers, no one in the world can match Ouyang Xiu, and Dasu can't do it, and he hasn't grown up yet. But what does this official have to do with literature? He is good at literature, and he was born in a pavilion, so he often goes to pavilions or literature.
It doesn't matter. However, how can Zhang Fangping be regarded as a coercion?
So what are you and Han Qi, do you want to exterminate the Nine Clans?
Zhao Zhen was silent, asked Ouyang Xiu to step down, and then took Zhang Fangping's resume to watch, there was one thing that everyone was negligent, and Zhao Zhen and Zhao Zhen's family were related to him. He immediately had a nervous breakdown. If he didn't get involved in this matter, Zhao Shu would not be stupid.
After reading it, he gradually became suspicious, and called Zeng Gongliang and Zhao Yi to inquire.
Zeng Gongliang and Zhao Ji told the truth, and they didn't hear about their evil, and there was no trace. Yes, even the private house case of the year was also Zhang Fangping's sloppiness. As for doing it so rampantly for a little money? Then he said that Zheng Lang said in front of the first emperor in the past that Fang Ping was extremely good at the economy. but a capable officer.
Zhao Shu was speechless again.
Not only did Zeng Gongliang persuade him, but his wife also blew the wind in his ears, but the matter of the imperial examination was not settled, and it was impossible for Zhao Shu to use Zheng Lang. However, in my heart, I have to admit that Zheng Lang is a famous minister, and he has a good eye for people.
Ouyang Xiu did not succeed, but instead became a snake painting.
Not many people know the insider. But gradually there are some rumors.
Originally, he only hated the emperor badly, and there were still some ministers who thought that Han Qi was a famous minister of Qingli, and there were more people who had a good impression of Ouyang Xiu, after all, he was the grandmaster of the world of the world. After a few slanderous rumors, more people faintly recognized Ouyang Xiu's true face.
Shenma, you are even more hateful than Lu Yi Jian Xia Zhu.
β¦β¦
Spring returned to the earth, but last year it was a bitter winter. The sound of firecrackers kept going, and the spring cold was still very steep.
Not far away, in the dark corners of the fields and houses, I could faintly see some snow, which shone a dazzling white light in the sun.
Zhou Yuan came to Zhengzhou quietly again.
Look at the long oolong in the distance. said: "It's about to become a small city." β
Zheng Lang smiled, it is not a small city, in a few years, it will become a new city, or a medium-sized city.
The workshop was expanded again and again, and soon it would become the largest private workshop in the Song Dynasty, along with steel! This will eventually be handed over to the state, but with the convenience of Cai Shui, there are many craftsmen, and the first pilot must be on the bank of the Cai Shui River not far away. Then it is possible to absorb more than 10,000 households.
Combined with other sub-belt industries and tertiary industries, the population will inevitably exceed 100,000 in less than ten years.
It cannot be compared with the capital, and it cannot be compared with Ezhou and Hangzhou, which have a difference of 100,000 people, but if it develops smoothly into a city with a population of 100,000, it can at least rank among the medium-sized cities in the Song Dynasty.
Smile and don't answer.
In fact, it is very easy to make a fortune, at this time, it is necessary to circle the land in the surrounding area, and the property can be multiplied several times after a few years. But Zheng Lang did not interfere in any way, which can be regarded as overkill. A housing reform in his previous life more or less made him a frightened bird.
Only then did Zhou Yuan report on the matter.
There are several intentions for coming, the first is that the son of the blind felt is stationed in Taozhou.
Zheng Lang pondered for a moment and said, "You remember, you can get information, but don't interfere with them." β
Afraid that Zhou Yuan would not know, Zheng Lang simply made his words clear and said: "If you want to attack Western Xia, you must attack in many ways, after all, compared to our dynasty, the Western Xia army is not as large as our dynasty, and the financial situation is even less than that of our dynasty." Lanzhou is the most important region, and if all the two states of Lanhui are taken, it will make Western Xia lose the entire Hexi Corridor. β
Zheng Lang punished the failure of Xining's Western Expedition, and the military plan in his mind also changed.
In the future, it will not attack Western Xia first, but to cut off the connection between Western Xia and the Hexi Corridor.
At this time, there is still a passage in the Tengger Desert, but it is obviously impractical to walk from the Tengger Desert after the state is captured. All this is equivalent to cutting off the two thighs of Western Xia.
He also said: "The various ministries of Taozhou may not be satisfied with Mu Zheng, and finally there is a conflict, Mu Zheng is not a dragon crossing the river, just a worm crossing the river, but Taozhou Zhufan is a mountain tiger, once the conflict starts, Mu Zheng will be driven back to Hezhou, the foothold is unstable, and I lack a long-term vision of the ministers in the court, and I will fall to Xixia." β
"I understand, Zheng Gong deliberately let him fall to Western Xia to lay the foundation for sending troops in the future?"
"Yes, otherwise there would be no righteousness. And once they die, Tubo is no longer afraid. If I don't enter the river, sooner or later I will be taken by Western Xia. If Xixia is allowed to succeed, the consequences will be terrible. However, once Mu Zheng defected, you sent your men to infiltrate the territory and threaten to spread some historical hatred between Tibet and the party, so that some of his tribes were dissatisfied with Mu Zheng. β
"Oh, Gong Zheng, there is one more thing, Wei Yang and they sent a letter to express their gratitude to Zheng Lang."
"No thanks, you told them that this was the beginning. The scale of the workshop will grow, and it is possible to earn 1 million or 2 million in the last year. Zheng Lang said. Last year, the dividends for most of the year before last year allowed each of the six people to share more than 7,000 yuan. In the middle, nearly 30% of the proceeds are used for development and research, otherwise it will be more. It's a lot of money. However, now Wei Yang and the other five are also considered to be high-ranking in Western Xia. If they only pay 4,000 yuan in dividends a year, it may not be able to guarantee that they are all excited. If you can divide 10,000 and 20,000 yuan a year, the weak foundation of Western Xia. It was enough to guarantee the loyalty of the five.
"How can this be so good......" Zhou Yuan rubbed his hands weakly.
"You picked it out more than ten years ago. Diving to Western Xia, the elder is only twenty-nine years old, and the young one is only twenty-six years old, and more than ten years have passed. So far, the identity and merits have not been exposed. We have to wait, when we didn't hide the rebellion, we were working on the river, and we couldn't send troops over, and I wanted to look for another good opportunity, which was almost ten years. It will take fifteen years to slow. At that time, the six of you were all in your early sixties, and you had only been lying down for three years, and you had been lurking for more than 30 years. But you pass on a word for me. They are now in positions of great power, and they don't have to work as hard as they used to. Moreover, since they were retainers who had not hid before, they had to keep a low profile. I also heard that they all had some hidden wounds on their bodies, and asked them to call a good doctor to treat them one by one. Let them live well and live until we send troops to the Western Xia on a large scale, and make contributions to the country. Leave a name through the ages. I can also glorify my ancestors and enjoy glory and wealth. You too, once that happens, you can retreat. β
Master and Mencius forgive. Yang forgiveness, because loyalty is too difficult. Therefore, the master said that it is wrong for Zigong to refuse money, that is, loyalty, although it is more noble and not suitable for promotion, but Zilu is right to accept the cow, that is, forgiveness, the realm is a little worse, but it can be promoted.
This theory was also inherited by Zheng Lang.
Not to mention anything imaginary, patriotism, nationalism, it is very difficult to have in this era.
Some people say that Nong Zhigao is a national hero, fainted, is there nationalism in this era?
You have to bring something realistic out and let them see it in order to ensure their loyalty.
Zhou Yuan couldn't understand this, and he was a little moved after hearing it, and then said: "Gong Zheng, when will you return to the court?" β
I asked last year, and I asked again this year.
Because judging from the political situation in the court, the situation is becoming less and less optimistic. Several people have no bottom in their hearts, Zheng Lang is useless, and it is difficult for them to reuse.
Zheng Lang said: "Don't worry. At this time, it was the darkest hour of the night, the fourth watch, but at the fourth watch, the sky was almost dawn. It won't take long, a year and a half is enough. β
"Well," why is a year and a half enough, Zhou Yuan didn't dare to ask, but he knew that Zheng Lang must have made arrangements. Leave Zhengzhou satisfied.
No one knew about it.
The darkest hour in the court has arrived.
Fan Chunren and Lu Dafang played together: "The jackal is the road, the attack should be the first, the evil is in the court, and the impeachment dares to be followed?" Fushimi Governor Ouyang Xiu was the first to open heretical discussions, vainly quoting scriptures, pleasing the lord in vain, and defeating the first emperor with near benefits. The court was shocked, and the world was disappointed. What is unforgiven by the political code is rejected by man and God. β¦β¦ How can ministers and cultivators go hand in hand? Words are not enough, I am willing to take responsibility, live up to His Majesty's appointment, not abolish the profession of the court, and the ambition of the ministers. β
Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu are leopard wolves.
What is done, man and God forsake together.
The ministers are unwilling to stay in the court with such people, if they continue to use Ouyang Xiu, please depose us from the court. With Ouyang Xiu, there will be no Fan Lu for us, and if we want Fan Lu, we can't use Ouyang Xiu.
Especially Fan Chunren.
Fan's family is unparalleled in the world. It's surprising to eat a little minced meat at Fan's house, your family is so simple, how can you be willing to eat a trace of meat star?
The best of them all is Fan Chunren. originally had good qualifications, and he studied with Zheng Lang for many years, and occasionally communicated with each other halfway, and Zheng Lang constantly instructed him. Along the way, although the promotion is not fast, everywhere he passes, there are political achievements, and he is upright, and he has the demeanor of Fan Zhongyan back then.
Although his reputation is not as good as Ouyang Xiu's, it is not much inferior.
In the book, and in such a fierce tone, it is a rare thing for Fan Chunren, and it is overshadowed for a while.
However, it is not reported.
Recital: "Since the ancients ruled the world, it has not been based on the hearts of the people, and only when you get it can you avoid danger, and if you lose it, you can not keep it safe." Therefore, it is said that the people are like water, they can carry boats, and they can overturn boats. The gains and losses of people's hearts, can you be careful? How can there be a minister who is in the same position as the country, who wants to be in line with the will, who is selfish in his own business, who moves over the king of the people, and is disappointed in the world? For the evil of the minister, which is more important than this! β¦β¦ If you don't give the gift of King Pu today, you will not be able to comfort the hearts of the people, and if you don't sin the first evil minister, you will not be able to govern the Qing Dynasty. β
Zhao Yun has made the name to be decided, and it can't be delayed any longer.
It was King Pu, not the imperial examination. Why is it uncertain, the main reason is that the two rulers are in agreement, and they are selfish. It has nothing to do with the emperor, although you have this idea, if it is Zai Zhixian, you can still listen to it, but these two boys are wicked people, deliberately hoping for your heart, in exchange for glory and wealth, and deliberately let you carry this black cauldron. That is, Zhao Shu is not wrong, and the reason why he made a mistake was because Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu were bewitched.
It is still not reported in the book.
The two joined forces again to play three songs: "To repair the government, you can't use the ancient sages and kings to govern the arts, open up the mind, give orders, move the hearts of the people, and make the people of billions of trillions inspire and deify." Hoping to invite favors, advocate heresy, violate etiquette and law, disregard the righteousness, and will trap His Majesty in a place where he has passed, and the cultivator will promote his ambition and think he is loyal. and the ministers gathered, the ceremonial officials discussed, and when the passage was postponed, the big discussion was indecided. and involved in the deeds of the declining world of the previous generation, in order to disguise treacherous words, reject righteous opinions, coerce evil and recklessly, and be disloyal. If you are a minister like this, how can you participate in the country? Qi sheltered the evil and suppressed the public opinion. In the meantime, he has not been corrected, nor is he the body of the minister's assistant. Fu Wangsheng Ci was determined to be resolute, and the ministers and other officials were sparse before and after, and they were implemented outside, so as to divide the evil and the good, so as to subdue the world. β
directly talked about Ouyang Xiu's conduct in the past few years, he is very knowledgeable, and he used some literary ornaments to promote his ambition and cover up his treacherous words. In fact, he is a big traitor. Han Qi shielded Ouyang Xiu and depressed public opinion, which is also not a good thing. Although Zeng Gongliang and Zhao Yi did not have any evil deeds, as auxiliary ministers, they did not dare to distinguish between them, and they were not auxiliary ministers.
The whole book is rotten.
According to what they said, not only will all the bigwigs in Zhongshu be deposed, Han Qi will be imprisoned, and Ouyang Xiu will be beheaded to show the public.
It's all a bunch of bastards.
Fan Chunren and Lu Dafang aimed at Ouyang Xiu, and Lu Zhi directly aimed at Han Qi. Ouyang Xiu was just an embarrassment, and losing Han Qi, the wolf, was nothing. Han Qi is the first of the scourges. On the book, looking at Han Qi's talent, it is not as good as Huo Guang, Li Deyu, Ding Wei, Cao Yu, and arrogant. β
Fan Zhen only introduced Zhou Gong once, and then immediately delegated. Zhou Gong, you dream. Not only is it not the Duke of Zhou, but the four worse people, these four people have either deposed the emperor, or bullied the queen mother, persecuted colleagues, and are the lord of common anger.
You are not as talented as theirs, but you are arrogant and lawless, and you are more excessive than theirs.
There must be one thing, if you don't look at the article and the fame they have only after being covered up by later generations, Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu of Zhao Shuchao have been called traitors, but they will not be much better than Ding Wei.
The wind and rain are coming, and the wind is full of buildings.
Just when everyone was working together to eradicate the "two traitorous ministers" for the imperial court, Zhongshu suddenly lowered his handwriting: "I heard that the ministers asked the emperor to be the king of Chongpu Anyi, but it has not been implemented so far. When I read the pre-history again, I know my own story. King Pu Anyi, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Han of Xiangguo, and Jun Ren of Xianyou County can make the emperor call him a relative, and still respect King Pu Anyi as Emperor Pu Anyi, and the country of Qiao, Xiangguo, and Xianyou are called queens. β
When the minister heard this, he was stunned like a bolt from the blue. Could it be that Empress Dowager Cao's head is also broken?
