After Zeng Gongliang received another forged letter, he didn't have the heart to stay, and just happened to deliver the 20,000 taels of silver from Youzhou. Before Zheng Lang left, he brought a large amount of money and silk, and Zhao Zhen heard that he would stay for a long time, so he allocated 20,000 taels of silver from the treasury and asked Zeng Gongliang to bring it to Khitan for Zheng Lang to use, so that the soldiers could rest assured, or to buy relevant personnel, or for other purposes. Unexpectedly, the Khitan used isolation methods, and the edict did not say that most of the Khitan people would not give this batch of silver to Zheng Lang.

But it doesn't matter, as long as Zheng Lang goes back, this account can be slowly settled.

Kou Zhun once said that it was impossible for the southerners to use it, and it was not right. Southerners are wise and changeable, not as loyal as northerners, such as Qin Hui and Cai Jing are southerners. But it is still Zheng Lang's sentence, it is difficult for people to distinguish loyalty, and it depends on how people use it. Lu Yijian was used in the hands of Zhao Zhen, although he was a villain, he was a loyal minister. Cai Jing was a supporter of Wang Anshi, but he was used in the hands of Song Huizong, but he was a minister. Therefore, this is wise and changeable, and if it is used well, it is a capable minister.

Compared with the ministers of the north, the ministers of the north and south of the Northern Song Dynasty also have a significant characteristic, which is more aggressive. Nor is it that southerners are more aggressive than northerners, but it is a matter of interests. The north did not form the gate valve of the Tang Dynasty, but it can form a family, which is the one who gains benefits, and insists on peace, conservatism, unchanged, and harmony, in order to consolidate interests. However, the south did not form a group of interests, so it dared to reform. This is a strange phenomenon in the later party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty, the new party has more southern ministers, and the old party has more northern ministers. The form is reversed, and southerners will also do bad things. For example, when the Ming Dynasty was prevalent, the south deliberately harbored the Japanese invaders. Because of the sea of the Ming Dynasty, the smuggling of the Japanese was beneficial to the powerful along the southern coast.

Zeng Gongliang is a southerner, and he is also a determined reformer.

Zhao Zhen has Zhao Zhen's intentions, there are few bosom friends, no one listens to the broken strings, as Zeng Gongliang, he doesn't understand Zhao Zhen in many places. The Khitan was defeated by the Western Xia. The Song Dynasty defeated the Western Xia, why did the Song Dynasty still have grievances against the Khitan and let the prime minister come to the Khitan to be humiliated?

I couldn't figure it out, and I looked at the car of silver very depressed. In order to grab time, he came early, and the silver came late, it doesn't matter, Guan Jian is Zeng Gongliang was very angry and ashamed at this time. Give the silver to the Khitans and wait for Zheng Lang to go back. After settling accounts, with a belly of anger, he left the Khitan and returned to the Song Dynasty.

When he arrived in the capital, he presented the secret music to Zhao Zhen, and when Zhao Zhen finished reading it, Zeng Gongliang said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that our dynasty is too weak." ”

What has become of this?

Zhao Zhen was not angry. He said softly: "Zeng Qing, there is also Xixia." ”

It was these words that made Zeng Gongliang silent. Before the Western Xia was resolved. If you want to use force against the Khitan, it is simply impossible.

Then all kinds of rumors came in.

First of all, the story of the tiger, not to tell Yelu Hongji was so frightened by the tiger that he couldn't stand up on the ground, but Yelu Hongji and the guards fought the tiger together, and finally Zheng Lang proposed to let Yelu Hongji pull the knife to kill the tiger, with the reputation of the king of Liang, and said that Yelu Hongji cut off the tiger's head and dedicated it to Liao Xingzong, and said that he took the king of Liang to see the suffering of the people. This is to educate the Khitan a crown prince who is both civil and military, benevolent and filial. When the news reached Song Realm, everyone was in an uproar.

Zhao Zhen also heard it in the palace and knew that it was fake, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. Although it is a false religion, it is still a teaching. originally wanted Zheng Lang to teach his son, but none of the three sons survived. If he had a son, what kind of crown prince would he teach in the hands of Zheng Lang? It may be the real benevolent and military crown prince.

Then it was rumored that Zheng Lang continuously participated in the Khitan Provincial Examination and the Trial Examination, and personally gave the test questions for the Khitan.

Immediately afterwards, it was rumored that Zheng Lang had four beautiful and unparalleled concubines in Khitana, and the two concubines were still descendants of the Liu family and the Ma family, a wealthy family in Youzhou. …,

Almost the entire Song Dynasty was talking about it.

If Zhang Hai hadn't ventured to see Zheng Lang and bring Zheng Lang's secret music to Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen might have been shaken by this huge rumor.

But this time Jia Changchao did not participate.

He was well-informed and knew that Zeng Gongliang brought back Zheng Lang's secret music, after all, Zheng Lang risked going to Khitan for the sake of the Zhao family's country and the princess of the Zhao family without being insulted and wronged. If you do too much, the emperor will be unhappy, and his career will be in jeopardy. But it doesn't mean that he doesn't make a move, he is sitting and waiting for the best time.

Guessed accurately.

Zheng Lang most wanted him to continue to shoot. Zhao Zhen is a very nostalgic person, including his teachers, such as Xia Zhu, such as Jia Changchao. After Lu Fan, this person will become the prime minister and become famous, which will be a big obstacle to his future. As long as Jia Changchao continues to shoot, the more times he shoots, the more disgusted Zhao Zhen will be, and the disgust will exceed the old heart, and Jia Changchao will be over.

However, some people don't think so.

Wu Yu continued to maintain some of the habits of the gentlemen's party, jealousy and hatred, and when he heard this kind of rumors, he still thought that Jia Changchao was a ghost. Under this psychological influence, he finally broke out, and there were more and more conflicts with Jia Changchao in the DPRK.

The superintendent of the imperial history Tang Xun wanted to curry favor with Jia Changchao, and he played a performance, which was virtuous and square, outspoken, and different.

In order to collect talents, the Song Dynasty gave some talented people who had talents, but repeatedly failed to pass the examination, and gave a chance for Confucian students and abilities to be able to do so. For example, Fu Bi entered the official career through Mao Cai and other subjects, as well as Hu Ming, Sun Fu and others.

Tang Xun Jin said that these three subjects were involved in the Tang Dynasty and were not often placed. Only when there is a catastrophe and there is a serious mistake in the government, will it be ignored. The old system was used for the examination in this dynasty, and the Zhenzong family built three subjects, and His Majesty built six subjects, so that the two governments and Shaoqing and the supervisor could try to test the people after the performance. Later, it was upgraded again, so that Xianliang and Maocai were actually above Jinshi. In recent years, there is no need to protect the officer, but to look at the subject from which he is examined, especially the virtue and squareness, and the beauty of Maocai. Something that has never happened since ancient times. However, in the actual examination process, only a few regulations of the history were used, and a little annotation was made. It can only be said that it is strong and broad, and it is said in general, but it cannot be seen in the auxiliary national body and Chen Zhidao's arguments. It was such a mistake in employing people, a few people at the beginning of the edict, and now there are more than 30 people. If you can't figure it out, you won't have to be an official in a few years. This is a disadvantage.

But how did it do it in the past, with the story of the two Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty edicted the ministers to be virtuous and square, and the outspoken people were extremely admonished, and the Yuan was sealed for five years. Zhaozhou County Chamin has different Maocai, fifty-four years, only one fell swoop, one fell swoop, one fell swoop. Until the fifth year of Takaozhao. Only to raise virtuous again, filial piety Xuandi Festival for three years, virtuous, Yuankang four years to raise Maocai, etc., twenty-five years, two virtuous, one fell swoop Maocai. Therefore, it is appropriate to be like a Han story. Personally plan the priorities of the world, and try to stop the secret cabinet.

If you look at Zheng Lang, it doesn't matter, it is to use some learned Confucian students, not necessarily these Confucian scholars are capable ministers. It's okay to do it. As for Fubi, it is a special case.

But the letter had a number of consequences.

The main Tang inquired about this performance with selfish intentions.

Originally, Wu Yu was in Hanlin, and recommended Tang Xun as the imperial history, and Tang Xun did not arrive, and his mother was mourned. Go home and worry. and Wu Yuwei participated in political affairs, and heard that Tang Xun was related to Jia Changchao, so he said to Jia Changchao unceremoniously. Tang Xun should be dismissed according to the old practice.

According to the system of the Song Dynasty, Wu Yu did not do anything wrong, what is the imperial history used for, specifically picking the thorns of ministers, especially the thorns of the prime minister. Is it feasible for you to be the prime minister and a relative to make a royal history? Jia Changchao had no choice but to take Tang Xun as the governor of Luzhou. But Jia Changchao made a small plan, and he said to Zhang Fangping: "Tang Xun dismissed the imperial history, it was Wu Yu's doing. ”…,

After saying that, he left.

Where Zhang Fangping is Jia Changchao's opponent, he is very disgusted with Wu Yu. After hearing about it, I put it in my heart. Jia Changchao used a second plan, according to the system, the official release of the court resigned, Jia Changchao used some means to make Tang Xun make an exception. Zhang Fangping said: "Tang Xun's material is beautiful, and it is advisable to keep it for speech." ”

At that time, Zeng Gongliang had not yet left the capital. He usually has a good relationship with Tang Xun, and secretly has some good words. The two recommended, and Zhao Zhen was approved.

Wu Yu was a little dumbfounded, stubbornly arguing, but Zhao Zhen did not agree.

Because Tang Xun held a grudge against Wu Yu, he attached himself to Jia Changchao.

In fact, these contradictions are really strange.

As for it?

This advice has a profound meaning, because after Wu Yuzhong entered the Shike, when he served as a writer, he was re-examined to be virtuous, and he was appointed as a general judge in Suzhou, and since then his career has risen to the top, and he has served as a governor in his early 40s. Therefore, the water in the court is too deep, and ordinary people really can't stand on their feet.

After Wu Yu heard this, he was very angry, and he also gave a advice, and he has been a scholar for three generations, and he is more than Han and Tang. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was virtuous and virtuous, and he made mistakes, so why did this happen in a good year? Emperor Wu is virtuous, there are Dong Zhongshu and Gongsun Hong, what is the difference? Tang Xianhe, who was outspoken and extremely admonished, won Yuan Zhi and Bai Juyi. Why wait for the disaster to be completed, and then issue an edict, this is the queen of the uncreated, how can it be enough? His Majesty has been recovering for several years, and the number is moderate. If there are three injunctions only after the disaster is completed, one is to make the wise men of the world wait for the disaster to advance, not to raise the shame. The second flat does not lift, and the shape is asked, not so afraid of natural disasters. The three light changes the letter to show that there is no thirst in the world, and it is not Guangxian Road. Please pay the ministers to play in the two systems in detail.

After Zhao Zhen watched Wu Yu's performance, he agreed with Wu Yu's words, and did not pay the two systems, and the quasi-performance.

Tang Xun did not give up, and secretly played Wu Yu's younger brothers and sisters for a long time, Wu Yu did not let him remarry, and used this to attach Li Zunxuan. Li Zunmiao is the sixth ancestor of Jigong, when the dynasty is a concubine, the Li family is also one of the wealthy families of the Song Dynasty. It seems reasonable, marrying someone else, the relationship between Wu Yu and Li Zunxuan's family was broken. The truth of the matter At this time, Wu Yu's younger brothers and sisters were in their thirties, and they gave birth to six more children, and their husbands died, and the children became a burden, and they were afraid of harming the children.

After Zhao Zhen saw it, he sent someone to check, and when he learned the truth, he couldn't cry or laugh, what did Tang ask for? A big mess. However, he is a speech official, and the speech official can hear about impeachment, and he is silent.

However, Wu Yu jumped again when he heard it, and admonished: "Evil things should be discerned, people and ministers should be confidential, and they should be respected by the group, or they should be told to make plans, and become the beauty of the country. This is a reckless act, not a holy hearing, if you coerce the evil beetle country, why not do it, willing to name and impeach, in order to affirm the law of the country. ”

My brother and daughter-in-law can't get married, what can I do?

I can't say it explicitly. Therefore, the spearhead is directed at Tang Xun and alludes to Jia Changchao.

Zhang Fangping was very unconvinced when he heard it, what did Tang Xun say? Compared to your original nonsense, what can Tang Xun be like? Anyway, it's still my protector, or my subordinate, and I feel angry in my heart.

The tripartite contradictions accumulated, and finally broke out in August.

Zhiyong Jingjun Xiang Shou is the son of the former Xiang Minzhong, who has a good family and a good appearance, but he has done some bad things in office, thinking that Jiang Zhongli wants to report himself, so he falsely accused him, and then forced him to commit suicide. Jiang Zhongli's family heard that Wu Yu was upright and outspoken, and fled to the capital to complain to Wu Yu. Wu Yu sat on the shackle and died.

After hearing about this, Xiang Shou's family begged Jia Changchao for help. So Jia Changchao said at the court meeting: "Xiang Min Zhongzhong has made many contributions to the first emperor in the past, and Xiang Shou is Xiang Min's neutron, so he can be judged as a good example." ”

Wu Yu said: "Xiang Shou committed such a big crime, not killing is not enough to explain to the people of the world." ”…,

About Wu Yu repeatedly challenged his dignity, Jia Changchao also became angry, and the two quarreled at the court meeting.

This dispute is far better than Wang Zeng's fight against Lu Yijian, Zheng Lang suppressed Ouyang Xiu's two court battles, Zhao Zhen was so angry that he flicked his sleeves and said: "Scatter the dynasty." ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Zhao Zhen called Zhang Fangping, and the final judge of the unjust case was the emperor, but it was impossible for the emperor to preside over the case, and the final presiding body was still the Supervision Yuan. Zhao Zhen asked Zhang Fangping how to judge, and Zhang Fangping was also disgusted by Xiang Shou's approach. But Wu Yu wanted to kill Xiang Shou, Zhang Fangping changed his mind and said: "Xiang Minzhong has made great contributions to the imperial court, and the imperial court has an allusion to not killing the scholar doctor, but the impact of this case is extremely evil, and he can be spared death and sentenced heavily." ”

Zhang Fangping's statement was quite acceptable to Zhao Zhen.

Then Jia Changchao didn't know, knowing that Zhang Fangping and Wu Yu had a grudge, and asked someone to ask Zhang Fangping to help him, Zhang Fangping said angrily: "What do I do with this statement!" ”

Lao Tzu is not used to the gentleman's party, and he is even more disgusted with your various actions.

Under Zhao Zhen's verdict, Xiang Shou was commuted to death, but he was degraded to Lingnan and never hired, and the sentence was very heavy. However, the impact of the dispute between Wu Yu and Jia Chang Dynasty was extremely evil, and Zhao Zhen repeatedly signaled that Wu Yu would not give up, saying: "The person who the minister distinguishes is the minister's own duty, if it is not right, he is willing to dismiss the minister." ”

If Xiang Shou is not sentenced to death, it means that Wu Yu is wrong. With Wu Yu, the governor of the government, as the privy deputy envoy, he was transferred to Pang Ji. However, Pang's daughter married Song Zhen's son, and she had just gotten married, and Song Zhen repeatedly wrote inappropriately, and the two of us were relatives, and it was not good to work together in Dongfu, so Ding Du was changed to participate in political affairs. Pang Ji was so angry that he almost vomited blood. But it was not him who vomited blood, but Zhang Fangping.

The same vice minister, the vice minister of the eastern government is a soy sauce minister, but the vice minister of the western government has a lot of real power. Wu Yu is tantamount to being demoted.

People outside spread that Zhang Fangping was attached to Jia Changchao, some people didn't understand it, they knew some inside, but they didn't know much, saying that Zhang Fangping was ungrateful, and the reason why he was able to take the position was all due to Zheng Lang's credit, knowing that Zheng Lang and Jia Changchao had grievances, at this time Zheng Lang's life and death in the Khitan were unknown, and he immediately turned back and took refuge in Jia Changchao, so he was ashamed.

But after this chaotic battle, Jia Changchao's status in Zhao Zhen's heart has plummeted. He was very shrewd, and although he was obsessed with whether Zheng Lang could come back, he still didn't dare to move.

Defeat and defeat!

A man steals fun in the dark.

Wang Gongchen has never participated, the three parties are fighting back and forth, he is happy to see it, and took the opportunity to write the book, Taizu was 120,000 soldiers when Taizu, 180,000 when Taizong, and 400,000 when Zhang Sheng (the statement is inappropriate, it is only the lowest number of each generation of army, and it is actually more than that), and it is twice as much today. The soldiers are not in the crowd, and they are redundant and sit and eat, and they are not counting. Although the three divisions have a big plan for the total finances, and the facts are outside, please ask the commanders and ministers to take responsibility.

The first two third envoys did a very good job, Ouyang Xiu said that Yao Zhongsun was not good, but justice was in the hearts of the people, so how difficult it was to maintain the country's finances under difficult circumstances? Wang Yaochen served as the third envoy, and the country's economy began to improve. Wang Gongchen also wants to do better. Because of the chaotic management of grain and grass, a lot of waste is caused. That's why there is this advice, so that all roads, such as the Daimyo Mansion Xia Zhu, Zhiji Prefecture Zheng Jian, and Zhiyongxing Army Cheng Lin are also in charge of the grain and grass on the road, which can save unnecessary waste.

Quasi-play.

In fact, this is the so-called ancestral family law practice of the anti-Song Dynasty, which is a centralized dictatorship, the political road is smoother, and the obstruction and waste will inevitably be reduced. However, the system of the Song Dynasty overlapped and divided powers, and divided and divided, resulting in redundant government, which inevitably led to waste.

Wang Gongchen is concerned about finance, the more money left in the treasury, the greater his political achievements, as for Zheng Lang, he doesn't want to be framed, and he doesn't want to rescue, so he has a neutral attitude.

At this time, a message was released from the Khitan, which was released by Xiao Yunjin. (To be continued)
