"I see!" Zhao said.

During this time, Zheng Lang's teachings brought him great inspiration, and one window after another was opened one by one.

But educating the crown prince like Zheng Lang is something that has never been done since ancient times, and it is also something that cannot be imitated.

Either there is a lack of morality, or a lack of wisdom, or a lack of experience. If we add the vision and ideological outlook that is a thousand years ahead, none of them can be imitated.

I understand, these four words have become the most spoken sentence by Zhao Ji.

"Tell me about it," Zheng Lang said gently.

"I understand why some of the measures taken by Zheng Gong to the south induced the barbarians to change their living habits and farming methods, educated their children, and warned the Han households not to discriminate against them. This is to allow the barbarians to finally integrate into the Han people, the Han barbarian family, this is the way of the master. Bought with money and silk, it is easy for the barbarians to look down on the court, suppress it by force, and inspire their hatred. Only by integrating will southern Xinjiang be peaceful, albeit slowly, it may be more thorough to solve the governance of southern Xinjiang. ”

"Medium."

Just as the master and apprentice were talking about this, Zhao Shu once again refused the envoy because of illness.

The court is now dominated by Han Qi.

Pang Ji went down, firstly, he was tired and old, and he was indeed often sick, and he no longer had the energy to deal with so many official affairs, and secondly, Yanchen's waste made him a little disheartened. Fu Bi also went down, although Zeng Gongliang moved to Pingzhangshi, he was under Han Qi, and he was an honest man, and almost all the real power was in the hands of Han Qi.

Zhao Zhen is not in good health, and he is a little tired of politics, not only tired of politics, but also does not want serious disputes in the court, so he does not deliberately divide the court into two factions to balance and restrain as before. Without the constraints of the two factions of officials, he took the initiative to delegate power to Zhongshu, which made Han Qi have greater power in his hands.

It seems that Zheng Lang and Pang Ji did not have the rights they once had, and they were in charge of the East and West at the same time, but in fact, they had more power than Zheng Lang and Pang Ji at that time.

Therefore, one of his ministers has the most say in the court.

There are also some people, such as Sun Luan, who was transferred back to the court, who are lonely ghosts. Even if you have any thoughts, it is difficult to speak alone.

But there is a powerful force, and that is Zheng Lang's faction.

This faction was led by Zheng Lang's friends, as well as several students who gradually grew up, including Er Fan and Lu Gong. Sima Guang and Wang Anshi. There is also Yan Rongyong, who has many meritorious deeds in the bank supervisor, as the second echelon, and there are more believers below.

Although Bao Zheng is dead, there is Zeng Gongliang and Cai Xiang of the third envoy. Even Yang Jin and others, their strength cannot be underestimated. It's just that Zheng Lang has been floating underneath, and he hasn't condensed it, which looks very loose.

But the more Zheng Lang is like this, the more believers there are. Including the privy envoy Zhang Sheng, he is also moving closer to Zheng Lang's faction.

Seeing Zhao Zongshi like this, Zhang Sheng couldn't bear it, so he casually found an excuse and called Wang Qi, Yang Jin, Sima Guang of the Zhiyuan Academy, Cai Xiang, Zeng Gongliang, and Pang Ji of the three envoys to the house.

Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu had a small party, and Zhang Sheng also learned from it.

Several people arrived and greeted each other. Zhang Sheng looked at Zeng Gongliang and said, "Zeng Gong, Han Gong and Ouyang Gong have gone a little too far. ”

Pang Ji closed his eyes and smiled, when he poured himself, Zhang Sheng was also very helpful, and now he finally regrets it!

Zeng Gongliang asked hesitantly: "You mean the crown prince?" ”

"Exactly. What the two of them did could be said to be treacherous. Zhang Sheng said indignantly.

In the matter of Zhao Zongshi alone, no matter what Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu did before, they can indeed be described as ministers. There are some of them. Even when Wang Qinruo was alive, he might not be able to do it.

"And you. Zeng Gong, why did the emperor's heir eighteen resignations, as a privy envoy, actually learned about it after more than half a year! ”

Wang Anshi sneered: "Who said that everyone was looking forward to it? ”

He had a conversation with Cai Xiang, because the Chinese book was not effective, and the financial situation gradually deteriorated.

You can't simply blame Han Qi, Han Qi's energy let Zhao Zongshi share more than half, and it is so easy to govern the country. As soon as the energy is divided, the ability of the officials to govern will also decrease. Wang Anshi didn't care, he just saw that this country was like a swing, coming up for a while and going down for a while, and his heart was panicked.

The biggest crisis is that after the autumn, once the river workers need money so much, Zhongshu will have a headache.

Zhang Sheng frowned and said, "Jiefu, how did I know it would be like this?" ”

It is also normal for them to do their best to protect Han Qi. There have been three changes in the court, the first is Fan Zhongyan's gentleman's party, and the actual gentleman may not be able to talk about it, but it can only be said to be a reform party. Lu Yijian's Lilliputian, that is, the Conservative Party. Lu Fan took the lead. Later, Zheng Lang came out, but Zheng Lang was afraid of quarrels, so he was still Lu Fan. After their deaths, they became Jia Zheng, Jia Changchao and Zheng Lang. Jia Chang went down, Zheng Lang went down again, and a hundred flowers bloomed.

This hundred flowers are almost all the giants of the Junzi Party at the beginning, the most famous four giants, Pang Ji, Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi, Han Qi, Chen Zhizhong once occupied an important role in the middle, and Chen Zhizhong actually played soy sauce.

Jia Changchao also returned to the privy envoy for a time, but at this time, their faction had no voice and went down quickly.

Wen Yanbo let Zheng Lang fight hard because of the Liuta River and Di Qing case. Pang Ji was strongly supported by Zheng Lang, but because he was close to Jia Changchao and Yan Shu, he was not happy with the gentlemen, and he kept falling. Fubi is good, but this good reputation is there, and there is inaction. Only Han Qi remains.

During the Qingli New Deal, the Junzi Party had three giants, Zheng Lang was a moderate reformist, and Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi were fierce reformers. Although he had fought against Fan Zhongyan, it was a dispute within the Junzi Party. Therefore, Han Qi ascended to the throne, and everyone expected it.

He also said: "Jiefu, I suddenly understood Xingzhi's accusation against you when he mourned Di Qing. ”

Wang Anshi looked at Sima Guang depressedly and was silent.

Sima Guang was even more depressed.

Zeng Gongliang relieved them and said, "Zhang Gong, you are wrong. Xingzhi blamed Jiefu and Junshi for being selfish, wanting the emperor to be in a better mood, and it had nothing to do with the emperor's heir. If this is the case, Xingzhi will not teach His Royal Highness. ”

"What is the purpose of Xingzhi?" Zhang Sheng was also puzzled.

"It's very simple, Xingzhi wants the country to transition smoothly, selfishness is selfishness, thinking that Your Majesty is in a good mood, it is the way of a courtier, but the way of a courtier is more responsible for the country."

"Ran Crown Prince......" Zhang Sheng wanted to say, what kind of fart is this crown prince, it's okay to refuse four tables, it's okay to write a few resignations, and there are eighteen resignations in a row. Is it really child's play for the crown prince of this country? Besides, there is an adopted son of a family, but he never forgets to mourn his biological father, what kind of etiquette is this?

Not to mention that this adopted son is not an ordinary adopted son, but the crown prince.

This is the emperor's benevolence, if he changes himself. This adopted son has long been swept out of the house. You can do whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me, and I don't have the energy to raise this white-eyed wolf!

Sima Guang raised his head and said, "Gong Zhang, it's not what you said. When the crown prince is decided, the country will have a smooth transition, and if it changes, it will cause a lot of turmoil. Although some of the crown princes did not do well, there were no bad deeds in other behaviors. This is also Zheng Gong's acquiescence. and taught the Son of His own intentions. ”

Zhang Sheng still wanted to fight, but suddenly his mouth closed.

Sima Guang said very implicitly, but there is an extraneous voice, which refers to the harem. Don't think that Zhao Zongshi is not doing well, you can change it. There are many children in the clan, and it is difficult to find a prince with the same qualifications and virtues as the emperor, but there are not too many people who surpass Zhao Zongshi. can be found, put in the harem foster education, who is in charge of the harem. Empress Cao. Can Empress Cao be willing? As long as Empress Cao is still the queen in the harem, what kind of prince is found, she will not be qualified.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng wanted to squirt blood.

"I'm worried, I'm worried that something bad will happen." Zhang Sheng said, he didn't have the ability to think of the bloody Puyi dispute later, but he felt faintly uneasy.

Several people were silent.

There are signs that something bad is going to happen.

Zhang Sheng said again: "Junshi, Jiefu." What are the plans for the end of the river work? ”

They both shook their heads at the same time.

They really don't know anymore. Zheng Lang recited the "Jizo Honwan Sutra" in front of Di Qing's coffin, intending to really enter this "hell", and did not have any idea of retreating. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and then wrote to ask, but Zheng Lang replied vaguely.

Zhao Niannu took his son to Yunzhou again, although their IQ was high, they had no way to judge.

Everyone was at a loss.

Sima Guang and Wang Anshi know the truth, and others don't know the truth.

The main reason is that Zheng Lang's deprivation of his post did not start from the Huixi City incident, but since Liangguang went to Tanzhou, when Zheng Lang's credit was too great, and Zhao Zhen deprived Zheng Lang of part of his rights in order to protect Zheng Lang.

If you can retreat, you can advance, which is the cornerstone for Zheng Lang to re-enter the two mansions. It is also a way of trust, and it is expected that Zheng Lang does not attach much importance to rights, and he is not afraid that Zheng Lang will be angry or angry after being deprived of rights.

Because of the deprivation of rights, before the Huixi City incident, let everyone get into the misunderstanding together, but they can't see the truth.

This includes the brilliant Pang Ji and Han Qi.

But it brought more confusion to everyone, saying that the emperor was jealous, but it was not like it, it could be seen that the emperor valued Zheng Lang more than before. But why suppress Zheng Lang?

Zeng Gongliang said: "If the river project is completed, I will resign as prime minister, and I will also advise the emperor to summon Xingzhi to re-enter the two mansions." ”

"If Zeng Gong is righteous, as a minister, I will not hesitate to give advice to the emperor at that time," Yang said. He also has a deep affection for Zheng Lang and Yang Ji, and the Yang family is gradually declining, only Zheng Lang still attaches great importance to the Yang family in his words, and especially admires his ancestors Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao.

But he didn't know the reason, the Yang family generals in later generations were all mythical, and they still had some influence on Zheng Lang.

So everyone discussed together how to let Zheng Lang return to the court after the completion of the river work. Wang Anshi and Sima Guang have never intervened, others think they are avoiding suspicion, but in fact, the two of them know it, and it is not as simple as they say.

In short, some of Han Qi's practices made many ministers feel dissatisfied.

In fact, Sima Guang also played a long piece two months ago, vaguely mentioning this matter. It is said that Zhao Zhen has the strictness of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and the heart of King Wen is small, but the government of the country is incorruptible and indecisive, and it is entrusted to his subordinates.

said other things, in fact, he said this at the beginning, and he was also slightly dissatisfied with the current situation, but it was inconvenient for him to say it too clearly, and he forcibly horned the bull with Han Qi, with his qualifications, it was far from enough, and it was not his style.

Each has its own difficulties.

Zhang Sheng was angry, many ministers were dissatisfied, and Han Qi was really going to spew blood. Just as he was about to think of a countermeasure, Zhao Zhen summoned him into the palace and asked, "Why did I send the envoys Wang Zhongqing and Liang Dezheng to summon Shu'er to Jinjin, but they still said that they were ill?" ”

What is this emperor going to do?

Do you want me to hand over the throne now?

Han Qi replied: "Your Majesty, think about it, when Tang Zhaoshun was called, how Shun did it, how Shun Zhaoyu and Yu did it, not to mention Ji Za, who was highly respected by the master. ”

Ji Za is a demon in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The first demon is in the moral exercise. Because of his virtue, Shou dreamed of passing the throne of Wu to his youngest son Ji Zha, and several brothers also vied with each other to support him, but Ji Zha resolutely refused to accept it and insisted on letting his eldest brother Zhu Fan inherit the throne. and the people did not spare him. Forced by his brother and the people, he once retreated between the mountains and rivers, ploughing and working.

Zhu Fan was helpless and became the king of Wu. still wanted Ji Za to ascend the throne, so he changed the tradition of passing on the son, not passing on the son, but passing the throne to the younger brother, hoping to pass it on for several generations. Eventually, the throne passed to the younger brother. Before the third child died, he wanted to pass the throne to Ji Za, but Ji Qi still did not accept it, and went into hiding again to show his intentions.

Secondly, the demon is proficient in music and rhythm, and even when he hears the music of a country, he judges the fate of this country in the ancient text "Ji Zhaguan Zhou Le", Zheng Lang is relatively proficient in music and rhythm, but he definitely can't do this step.

Then the demon has insight into the current situation. When he met Zheng Guozi, he said to him, Zheng Guojun has no virtue, and his reign will not last long, and the throne will definitely pass to you in the future. When you governed Zheng Guo. Be cautious and hold the country with courtesy, otherwise Zheng Guo will not escape the fate of defeat.

One by one.

This man has been praised since ancient times. It is considered to be one of the representatives of the Spring and Autumn Sages.

So Zheng Lang has always said that it is difficult to evaluate whether it is good or bad. What Zhang Sheng saw was that Zhao Zongshi regarded the crown prince as a child's play, but Han Qi said that it was the beauty of virtue. None of them are right! Only one thing can be said. It can be evaluated like this, it can be evaluated like that.

Zhao Zhen was silent.

Han Qi also had a back hand and said: "Your Majesty, not only the prince is virtuous, but the emperor and grandson went to Yunzhou, and all the ministers and workers reflected that the emperor and grandson were the image of the eternal heroes. ”

For Zheng Lang's ability to educate the future crown prince, many people are blushing. But there is no way, if not, it will not be able to get the support of Zheng Lang's faction, if Zhao Zongshi is obedient, it would be better, Guan Jian is committing evil, if Zheng Lang's faction suddenly falls, there will be more than one luck.

However, the following public opinion is good.

Zheng Lang stood behind him and taught carefully, Zhao Ji has good talents, he is already human, at least when talking with the officials and squires below, he can use the word decent, if you take into account his age, his identity will be covered with a layer of divine brilliance.

There is another one, because Gao Tao is tightly hidden, the world does not know that Zhao Zongshi is in poor health, thinking that Zhao Zongshi is only in his thirties, and the reputation of the future crown prince is good, but when Zhao Xuan ascends the throne, he doesn't know what benefits Zheng Lang can get in twenty or forty years?

has been neglected, so that a few years later, Han Qi regretted it a lot.

But there is still not much kindness, not to say the son, but to say the emperor and grandson, once this title is decided, Zhao Ji can no longer stay in Yunzhou.

Zhu Biao can get the prince, because he has a good emperor grandson Zhu Yunwen. Yinzhen was able to get the throne because he had a good son, Hongli. What kind of suspicious case of seizing the edict, that is only written by later generations. Both father and son are good, which is the ultimate reason why Kangxi finally passed the throne to Yongzheng.

The country must be passed on from generation to generation, and the selection of the prince is important, and the selection of the emperor and grandson is equally important.

Faced with this big topic, Zhao Zhen finally said with his forehead: "You go and ask him what he wants?" ”

Don't ask for any Jiza, it's a legend, it's a fiction, and I'm not easy to fool, let's have something practical.

"Oh," Han Qi breathed a sigh of relief, he was too tired to do it, and then went to see Zhao Zongshi.

Zhao Zongshi didn't care what he thought, and sent someone to Han Qi to say, I'm sick and in poor health, so I won't see Han Gong.

Han Qi was so angry that he wanted to go crazy, thought about it, called Meng Yang over, and asked what happened.

Meng Yang is divided.

Han Qi shouted: "Everyone in such a country is related to the future and safety of the Great Song Dynasty, do you want to play nonsense?" ”

Meng Yang told the inside story.

Han Qi suddenly lay on the table and gasped, so angry that he was going to die, we are working hard for you outside, you are all good, you actually wrote a speech table and rewarded ten gold! He asked again, "Is the prince sick?" ”

Meng Yang was divided again.

"Say!"

"I haven't ...... in the past few days"

Han Qi was negligent again, he hadn't been born in the past few days, but that person had never been sick? What he values is that he is doing well these days, not being sick.

He waved his hand weakly and said, "You go down first and listen to a certain summons." ”

"Whoa."

Han Qi called Ouyang Xiu and Wang Tao and others to discuss, and there was originally a good candidate, Sima Guang. However, Zheng Lang criticized Sima Guang in front of so many people, and this time this kid will not work for them anymore.

Besides, the palace has already placed Zhao Ji in Yunzhou, so there is no need to sell his life.

Han Qi said: "Everyone, the prince is actually not sick. ”

"Ah," several people opened their mouths together, it was really okay to refuse the decree if they were really sick, this one was not sick, so it was too much.

Han Qi asked again: "What about the plan now, you look at me here." ”

As he spoke, he patted the piles of twists and turns in various places, and said: "I am not in the mood to handle official business for the country, so this matter should not be decided early." ”

He was depressed, and Ouyang Xiu was also depressed. There is also a Xiang Zeng Gongliang in the book, but under the joint efforts of the two, Zeng Gongliang was excluded from the periphery, Zeng Gongliang was very simple, since I arrived at the periphery, I simply didn't ask, and I was a soy sauce player.

Han Qi is the number one, Zeng Gongliang is the second in command, and if it is excluded, Ouyang Xiu will become the actual second in command. Originally, government affairs were not his forte, and with Han Qi dividing his energy, Ouyang Xiu also felt bitter. Sometimes I can't help but reminisce about the old days, although the power is a little smaller, I can spray whoever I want, how easy is my life?

That day is almost gone.
