The war report from the north arrived in Chang'an like snowflakes, and the news of the defeat of the four roads and the disappearance of the road spread in a blink of an eye.
In the Marquis of Wei Qi's mansion, Yuan Gusheng was teaching Dou Ying's grandson to be enlightened.
The first generation of the Dou family died and only the pillar Dou Yifang was alive, and the old lady of the Dou family lived in Lin Guang Palace for a few years to live a good life, but it was a pity that the old lady was destined to be unable to do anything again, a few years ago, she couldn't suppress the immature little emperor, and now she can't suppress the mature Shengtianzi.
Compared with the relatives of the Dou family who were in the limelight forty years ago, the fame and influence of the second generation are not comparable to their ancestors, there are more than 30 children and nephews of the second generation of the Dou family, and the famous ones are Wei Qihou Dou Ying, Nanpi Hou Dou Pengzu, Zhangwu Hou Dou Wan and Zhongshan Queen Dou Juan, among which the most famous is Wei Qihou Dou Ying, after all, he is the prime minister of the dynasty and has an extraordinary status.
Nanpihou Dou Pengzu and Zhangwuhou Dou Wan used to be the characters with infinite scenery in Chang'an City, since the reputation of the Dou family has deteriorated, the Empress Dowager Dou Yifang intervened in order to protect the reputation of the Dou family, but brought more harm to the Dou family, the old lady of the Dou family was forced to โกโ, wโww. left Guanzhong to go to the remote Lin Guang Palace to recuperate, the status of the Dou family plummeted, and Dou Pengzu and Dou Wan couldn't get up.
Dou Juan is a female streamer, married to Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, early, and is the king of Zhongshan who is drunk on wine, eating, drinking, and having fun all day long to give birth to a baby for his sister. Although the territory of the princes and kings is not small, and the population is not large, they can't stand the King of Zhongshan desperately having children. In recent years, it seems that there has been another wave of fertility peaks, and the total number of sons under the name of King Zhongshan has exceeded fifty. It's really easy to say that there are a few sons who are raised for others.
The relatively good Dou Ying is average, and he is not as good as Dou Shaojun, who almost became the prime minister back then, and finally became the prime minister, and he has no real power at all.
The third generation of the Dou family is all mediocre, except for following Nanpihou Dou Pengzu and Zhangwuhou Dou Wan to eat and drink together, relying on the family's money to lend and collect loans, buy and sell, I didn't see a few serious things, so Dou Ying pinned all his hopes on his little grandson. It is expected that the fourth generation of the Dou family will produce an outstanding talent to lead the Dou family to continue to maintain its prosperous family reputation for decades.
Yuan Gusheng's level of enlightenment is really extraordinary, after all, he has been a doctor in Chang'an City for many years, and he once had a heated debate with Huang Sheng in the Xuanshu Hall to win the weight of Emperor Gao Zongjing, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many bureaucrats who would not offend back then, he was just spread rumors by a group of people to smear him, causing him to lose his mood at all, and return to his hometown in the prime of life.
Dong Zhong Shumeng's level of learning and teaching is far inferior to him. Although both of them are PhDs who teach history and literature, the target of their services is also the Son of Heaven, who talks about neo-Confucianism mixed with Huang Lao Taoism, and his professional knowledge revolves around very difficult professional knowledge. Asking him to teach Mengxue is a waste of his personal ability and talent.
Dou Ying was in a good mood, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Sir, what do you say we should do with the news of the defeat in Northern Xinjiang?" โ
Dong Zhongshu glanced at it a few times and shook his head: "Is the prince planning to bring it up at the court meeting?" I don't think that's appropriate. โ
"Why?"
"Does the prince still remember the initiator of the Five Roads Expedition to the Huns?"
Dou Ying was shocked and was bluffed into a cold sweat, and the Son of Heaven personally made a major decision to review the decision. The sarcasm and sarcasm of the Five Roads Expedition to the Huns are constantly suppressing the face of the Son of Heaven, and when the Son of Heaven loses face, he has relied on the repeated stone temptations of the young and promising Son of Heaven in recent years. He could roughly know what the Son of Heaven was thinking, and the emperor, who had a very strong sense of self-esteem, could not tolerate failure. Even if it was his own failure.
Perhaps this is anger, a misguided emotional evacuation. But who cares?
If you change to an ordinary bureaucrat, choosing Mingzhe to protect yourself is the most moderate and safest means, you can't be rich and rich, you can't go bankrupt, at least you have to protect your income from drought and flood, but Wei Qihou Dou Ying is not an ordinary bureaucrat, he has his own ideas: "But the big defeat has been cast, and someone will eventually stand up and take responsibility for the failure, and it is not appropriate for me to say a few words as the prime minister, so how can I lightly push the responsibility to the other party." โ
"Does the prince want to put the responsibility on the Taiwei Tian Wei?"
"Not only him, but also the lieutenant Wang Xin who was wiped out by the whole army, some relatives are not good at fighting, so don't be generals, and use the valuable soldiers of the Han family and the hard-earned money of the people to make trouble, but anyone who has a trace of right and wrong in his heart will not dare to do this." Dou Ying was triumphant, and it was not easy to come up with a countermeasure in just half a day, especially since the opponent was from the more powerful Wang Tian family.
Dong Zhongshu still has doubts: "The statement of the prince is very reasonable, according to the provisions of the "Han Law", those who are cowardly and do not fight should die, then the life of Wu'an Hou Tian Wei will come to an end!" There is also the letter of the Marquis of Gai. โ
Dou Ying suddenly couldn't laugh, it is not difficult to let the Huns suffer a big loss, and it is not easy to let yourself not suffer a big loss, Wu'an Hou Tianwei withdrew with 10,000 elite cavalry without even doing a fart, and the brave lieutenant Wang Xin took the cavalry to collide with Zuogu Liwang Yizhi was beaten into the bottom of the sieve, and fled back to Chang'an with the shameful record of 10,000 cavalry annihilation, his status fell again and again, and he knew that he was not famous.
"Or I ask the Son of Heaven for permission to turn around and go to the Xiongnu to stop the scene."
"It's useless, the reason is like Tian Wei won't die."
Dong Zhongshu thought deeply and said: "Your Majesty should not let Tian Wei be humiliated, a small imbalance in self-esteem is relatively normal, it is more important to let Taiwei reflect more!" โ
Jinmamen has been edicted for two years, Dong Zhongshu's grasp of the political situation in Chang'an is clearer, and he often goes in and out of the palace to explain courses for the Son of Heaven, and the influence of the authorities is still there, and it is not that smart people are necessarily right, and there are many times when smart people die first in meaningless places.
It is said that the Son of Heaven suggested that the Son of Heaven divide the day into four time periods to calculate separately, the active period of eating in the morning, the fatigue period of declining attention in the afternoon, the excitement period of shopping and playing in the evening, and the dormant period of sleeping in the middle of the night.
Facts have proved that Dong Zhongshu's judgment was correct.
The next day, the angry roar of the Son of Heaven pierced through the Xuanshu Palace: "Tian Wei should die, Wang Xin should die!" If the two dare to come back, they will be captured and beheaded, and they will kill chickens and scare monkeys to set an example! โ
"Your Majesty! Please be the fury of the thunder, although the lieutenant and the lieutenant have ruined His Majesty's plan with poor performance, it cannot be said that there is no chance at all. Dou Ying whispered a few words, which suddenly made the expression of the Son of Heaven greatly improved, the emperor only needs to vent his emotions to prove that he is under great pressure, in fact, he knows very well whether the pressure is too great, and if there is really pressure, he will not build the Zhang Palace while repairing the Maoling Tomb, and also build a canal in the south of Chang'an City.
The imperial court is under pressure, the Son of Heaven is not necessarily under pressure, the treasury in the Great Agricultural Decree Mansion is the various expenses incurred by the imperial court, and the Shaofu belongs to the emperor's unique royal manor housekeeper, which is completely different from the state treasury to pay the world's bureaucrats, and the internal treasury only belongs to the territory completed by the state alone.
What's worse is that a month ago, the vanguard of the King of Dian suddenly attacked Qianzhong County (Yelang Kingdom), although several attacks were prevented by the Taishou of Qianzhong County, but the pressure was still very high.
Han Anguo, the captain of the Southern Army, quickly broke through the obstacles with 30,000 good hands who were good at jungle and mountain warfare, and now the main force is already making every effort to quickly pass through the Shuzhong Basin along the plank road, and enter the original area of Yelang Country when crossing the Yangtze River.
The big farmer ordered Zhuang Qingzhai to report the relevant taxes and reports as usual, and at the end it was mentioned that 50,000 Huns used 200,000 people to transport grain and grass, which is equivalent to the population of a county in the border area to transport supplies for the Han army of the Five Routes.
"Ting Weitian is outstanding, you can answer a few questions from me, how should those who are cowardly and not fighting be punished? How to judge the crime of escaping? How to judge the incompetence of the command and the annihilation of the whole army? How should I be guilty of violating my military plan even after fighting and retreating? โ
"This ......"
Tian Sheng opened his mouth and stammered, he, a half-court lieutenant, usually doesn't like to judge cases, and he sits in the public court absent-mindedly fooling around, if the emperor suddenly asks him to answer, he will inevitably hide in an unobtrusive corner and be lazy.
"Humph!"
The Son of Heaven's face suddenly darkened, and he said with displeasure: "You can't fight, you are incompetent in guarding your family, and you are the strongest in causing trouble, if you can become the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries, then all the men in the world will use this method to become the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries." โ
What a cat and a dog can do doesn't need to be done by relatives at all, at least if you have a capable poor background, maybe you can win the hearts of the people, and the impression left by your relatives on the people is always not a good opposite, just like the Lu family of the Lu Pheasant family of the Gaohou Pheasant family, and for example, the modest and low-key Empress Dowager Bo family has a Bo Zhao flying and domineering, but it does not affect the overall character, and the Dou family, which was very beautiful a few years ago, and the Wang Tian family, which is very beautiful now, are very powerful.
But this kind of power is very empty power, the emperor thinks that you need to exist and have your own strategy will give you a high ranking, probably the emperor doesn't look down on you will become a tragedy that wants nothing, similar situations will be replaced every ten or twenty years, this time the five road expedition Huns are composed of four kinds of people, remove the honest Gongsun Ao, the other four people are divided into three kinds of relatives, remove the Dou family who used to have a big business, and now the two Wang Tian families who have a big business, and the rest is the weakest Wei family.
Wei Qing led 10,000 cavalry and still hasn't replied, and even the emperor has begun to worry about Wei Qing's personal safety.
