Chapter 272: Who's Working For, Who's Busy
The one-day course was actually less than half a day, and Zhao Tianci, who returned to the dormitory, was not too tired, but felt a little unfinished. Lu Haowen is indeed a person in the world, and the things in his mind are vast, and just a little bit of it is enough for him to listen to it for a long time.
Chunxi and Huba waited for him to finish washing, and the old eunuch Yan Fu came with a basket of pastries.
"Lao Yan, the pastries you make are delicious, delicious, but you can't eat them every day, don't talk about whether you are greasy or not, at least you will have indigestion, and your stomach can't stand it!" Zhao Tianci lifted the lid and took a look, it was still the same old three, and he couldn't help complaining.
Yan Fugan laughed twice, "Prince, the slave not only knows how to make pastries, but also has a unique skill." ”
"And the trick, what's it?" Zhao Tianci asked curiously.
"Tuina! The minion's massage skills are unparalleled in the world, do you want to try it, prince? Yan Fu rubbed his hands, looking eager to try.
Zhao Tianci's face was a little dark, "Old Yan, are you sure that your set is useful for a three-year-old child?" ”
"Huh? Belch...... Hehe...... The old slave owes it to consideration, please forgive the prince! ”
"Also, one day you brought that man into the palace for me to see." Zhao Tianci said casually.
"Who?" Yan Fu asked.
Zhao Tianci pursed his lips, "Don't tell me, those pastries are really made by your two veterans, right?" ”
Yan Fu was stunned, and said with a smile: "The prince is really as wise as a torch, the old slave just wants to do it, and he doesn't have the strength anymore." This is all done by the goddaughter of the old slave, Xiao Xing'er is not only outstanding, but also smart, and the prince is the same age as you, one day I will bring her in for the prince to see, keep what you like. ”
"About my age? How old is she? ”
"Back to the prince. Xiao Xing'er just turned 12 years old this year. Yan Fu's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
"Lao Yan, your brain was kicked by a donkey, right? She's twelve, I'm three, that's the same age? Zhao Tianci really wanted to carve a few more lines on his face full of ravines.
"It's only nine years old, it's not much!" Yan Fu said seriously.
"How much is that?"
"Well, it depends. Different situations......"
"Shut up! I'm going to sleep! Zhao Tianci really didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore.
Because of the formal class, his diet and daily life are no longer as casual as before, and there is a specific schedule for when to go to bed and when to get up to eat, so he can't help but be reckless.
After washing up the next day, having breakfast, I came to the upper study and said hello to Zhao Bocong. The person who found out was Li Gang.
After seeing the ceremony, Zhao Tianci said strangely: "Master Li, shouldn't it be everyone's class today?" ”
Li Gang was sitting precariously, "Everyone Li is in mourning, and I can't come today if I have something to do, so I will swap with her." ”
Zhao Tianci had yesterday's experience, and this time he behaved honestly, sitting there like a Buddha waiting for Teacher Li to speak.
Li Gang didn't bring anything with him at all. The case in front of him was empty, nothing. Zhao Tianci was thinking about what he was going to say. Li Gang spoke: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I met with Lord Lu yesterday, and Lord Lu mentioned to me His Royal Highness the Prince's performance yesterday, and the minister was deeply impressed. ”
Zhao Tianci chuckled in his heart for no reason, and his vigilance immediately rose to the top of the table.
Li Gang looked at him for a moment, "The prince doesn't have to be nervous. ”
Zhao Tianci asked cautiously, "What did Old Man Lu tell you about me?" ”
Li Gang smiled. "Old Prime Minister Lu said that the prince is a genius and a rare unicorn figure, and many views coincide with Old Master Lu, so the minister also wants to ask His Royal Highness the prince for advice today."
Zhao Tianci secretly came, and Li Gang and Lu Hao asked about their political disagreements. It doesn't seem to be a little bit of a disagreement, this is a fight, I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, I will become the target of the two of them.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, should Zhang Bangchang be guilty?" Li Gang went straight to the point, and there was no nonsense.
"This ......" Zhao Tianci was thinking about how to make a round and not throw himself in, but Li Gang said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to worry too much, how to talk to Old Master Lu yesterday, and how to say it to the minister today." ”
Zhao Tianci said that this is going to fight in the ring? smiled and said: "Master Li, you are a master and I am an apprentice, how can there be a reason for an apprentice to argue with the master, what do you say?" ”
Li Gang Huoran got up and said: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said so, the minister will ask the emperor to resign from the post of Crown Prince." ”
Zhao Tianci got up and said, "Master Li, please sit down, I said that's it!" Xin said that this person was really hot-tempered, thought about it and said: "I discussed other issues with Master Li yesterday, and mentioned this person, what ...... about him?"
"The prince just needs to say whether this person is guilty or not!" Li Gang did not give an inch.
Zhao Tianci sighed secretly, it is really character that determines fate, this Li Gang goes straight and will not turn around, this kind of character is not to say that he is disliked by the king above the court, even in ordinary times, I am afraid that there will not be many friends.
Zhao Tianci thought for a while and said, "Master Li, before answering your question, can you tell me whether Wang Anshi is guilty or not?" ”
Li Gang was stunned for a moment, "This...... That's not something I can say. ”
Zhao Tianci: "Why can't you say it?" ”
Li Gang shook his head, "Li Xianggong is a person, his merits and demerits are inconclusive, and his original intention to implement the new policy back then was also good, but the people below did not do things well and distorted his ideas." ”
"I'm afraid it's more than that, right?" Zhao Tianci said: "His new policy has even damaged the interests of officials who do things, how can anyone really do it?" Officials don't need to die, the people below know a ...... Know what? Almost burst into foul mouth again, Zhao Tianci secretly stuck out his tongue.
"The prince's words are wrong!" Li Gang said: "Since he is a minister, he should serve the king's orders, he has orders from above but cannot be reached, and the corpse is vegetarian, what use do such officials want him to do?" ”
Zhao Tianci shook his head, "Master Li, what you said is a little biased. ”
"What do you mean by this?" Li Gang's eyes widened like a fighter.
Zhao Tianci saw that he was pressing step by step, so he simply stopped worrying, "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, dare to ask Master Li." Why do the officials come? ”
Li Gang said: "The prince asks if he is a minister, he should share his worries for the king, if he is bent on seeking wealth and fame, then don't come to be an official!" ”
"Well said!" Zhao Tianci patted the case and said: "Master Li has this retribution, and he can be called a pillar of the country!" ”
Li Gang was not favored by his kindness. is still in hot pursuit, "Since the prince also agrees with the idea of being a minister, why do you still say to Old Minister Lu that although Zhang Bangchang is a ****, there is still something to be forgiven?" ”
Zhao Tianci smiled bitterly, this Li Gang's personality is somewhat similar to him, but after so many twists and turns, he is already tired and doesn't want to hold on anymore.
"Master Li, is there only black and white in your world?" Zhao Tianci asked.
Li Gang couldn't understand what he was going to say. Said: "Black is black, white is white, how can it be confused?" ”
Zhao Tianci shook his head, "Master Li, you are not wrong to only recognize black and white, but there are not only these two colors in this world, but also gray and color!" ”
Li Gang shook his head, "The minister knows what the prince is going to say, but yes is right." Wrong is wrong, that's a matter of principle. ”
Zhao Tianci said: "That's good." I also talked about Wang Anshi's matter, Wang Anshi implemented the new law back then, was he the only one? ”
"What does the prince mean?" Li Gang asked.
Zhao Tianci pointed upward, "The name is Wang Anshi's proposition, but it should actually be the meaning of the above, if there is no emperor's support." No matter how much he claims, it's just a fart! ”
Li Gang frowned, "Ming Jun needs Ming ministers to assist, and if the ministers are not pure, it will be difficult for the king to clear." ”
Zhao Tianci shook his head, "Master Li, you didn't understand what I meant. The harm of the new law has only been seen today. How many years have passed? That's why there is the saying 'closing the coffin'! ”
"But what does this have to do with Zhang Bangchang?" Li Gang asked.
Zhao Tianci said in his heart that this Li Gang is really a stubborn temper, and he still can't get over it by going around left and right. He sighed and said, "Master Li, you must punish him, can you tell me why?" ”
"Isn't it wrong for a minister to be in a position of king, so arrogance is tantamount to complicity?" Li Gang said confidently.
Zhao Tianci smiled: "Master Li, I can't convince you." But let's think about it the other way, if when the Jin people captured Kaifeng, they set up Zhang Bangchang as the puppet emperor, and he behaved with more backbone and didn't accept it, what would happen? ”
"How? Die! Li Gang's eyes widened and he asked rhetorically.
Zhao Tianci: "What is certain is that it is impossible for the Jin people to stay in Kaifeng and not leave, they can't rule the Han people, it's not that they can't, the main thing is that they won't." Since you can't find a suitable person to be a puppet, then it is very likely that the scene will be to slaughter the city and destroy the temple, and Kaifeng Mansion, as the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, has something in it, if Master Li doesn't understand this, the emperor must understand it today. ”
Li Gang stopped talking.
"Today, the emperor not only did not condemn the crime, but also crowned Zhang Bangchang for this. And you later insisted on convicting and killing him, may I ask Master Li, did you kill only one Zhang Bangchang? I'm afraid I slapped a person in the face, do you know who that person is? ”
Li Gang's face turned extremely pale.
Zhao Tianci said: "Master Li, I respect you as a person, but the steel edge is too sharp and easy to break, I believe you know this truth." And ......" He bypassed the table and came to Li Gang, "There is nothing wrong with crusading against the Jinren, but it is not possible to welcome back the Second Emperor of Huiqin!" ”
Li Gang frowned and said: "The Jin people kidnapped my Great Song Emperor, this is a great shame, as the people of the Great Song Dynasty, how can we sit back and watch the two saints fall into the hands of the enemy and suffer for no reason?" ”
Zhao Tianci took another step forward and asked in a low voice: "Master Li, if I really welcome back the second emperor, will I still be the crown prince?" Can the current emperor still be the current emperor? ”
Li Gang's color changed, his body trembled, his eyes stared directly at the child in front of him, and he couldn't say a word.
Zhao Tianci smiled faintly and continued to whisper: "There is a saying called 'who works hard for whom', master, you should also think more about yourself, historical merits and demerits are written by the people above." ”
Li Gang took a deep breath and stood up, bowed down and said, "Dare to ask the prince ......"
Zhao Tianci interrupted him, "Master Li, I only know that it is the Southern Song Dynasty now, and the current emperor is the original King Kang Zhao Gou, who is also my father, and the others...... I don't know. ”
Li Gang stood for a long time, until Zhao Tianci returned to his seat and looked at him with a smile, and then he sat down.
"Master Li, I want to learn from you how to arrange troops." Zhao Tianci said sincerely.
Li Gang smiled bitterly: "Didn't the prince say ...... just now?"
"Master Li, what I just said is today," Zhao Tianci interrupted Li Gang's words, "The skills I learned from you are going to be used tomorrow." ”
Li Gang's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "That's right!" The things I taught the prince will also be used tomorrow! (To be continued.) )
