The New Party is in power

He took the orthodox line and passed the Jinshi examination, but after becoming an official, he took the initiative to give up his well-paid job and work in poor areas. After that, he went to the next level, feeling that being an official was filthy in itself, and for the purity of his heart, he simply resigned and returned home.

It's impossible not to admire the level of holiness. Such a person stood by the river and waited, and Zhang Dian had no choice but to invite him to the boat. Chen Qian came here for something, and as a scholar, he has a noble pursuit. Personal fame and fortune can be abandoned, but the justice of the world must be maintained. The purpose of his visit this time is to instruct Zhang Dan, who is going to become prime minister this time, how to work?

Zhang Tun asked him to speak freely. Chen Qian pointed to the boat he was on and said, "Zhang Xianggong, the world is like this boat." If one side of the boat is heavier and the hull rolls sideways, can the boat drive away?"

Chen continued: "Obviously, no. And moving what is on the left to the right is the cause of the roll," Zhangdun was silent.

Chen Qian was also silent. His words have been very clear, the left and right sides of the ship are used as a metaphor for the old and new parties in the court, the left is left, the right is right, only the two are in their own places, do not interfere with each other, the ship of the Great Song Dynasty can drive smoothly...

With the talent of Zhangdun, he can understand it completely. But he was silent, that is, he did not say anything. Generally speaking, when talking to high-ranking people, they pay attention to the point and stop. Now that Zhang Dian is not in the play, Chen Qian should say goodbye and leave. But the matter is important, he thought about it for a while, and decided to continue, "Now that Zhang Xiang is in Beijing to preside over the world's major affairs, I don't know what you want to do first?" What do you do after that?"

Zhang Dian was silent for a long time before finally answering, "Sima Guang is a huge traitor, exposing him, criticizing him, and reversing the losses he caused are the heaviest things, and this must be done first."

When Chen Qian heard this, he was burned, and he shouted, "Zhang Xianggong, you are wrong" Zhang Dian did not interrupt him. Let him finish...

Chen Qian said, "Zhang Xiang, you are wrong, you are moving the things on the left to the right, even if the starting point is good, it will cause the hull to be heavy, and sooner or later it will be overturned!" If you really want to do this, everyone in the world will be disappointed."

Hearing this, Zhang Dian was finally furious, and he asked in a fierce voice, "Sima Guang let the legitimate emperor not assist, but went to seek refuge in the empress dowager." He acted alone and betrayed the emperor. Arbitrarily repeal the laws of the previous dynasty. Misleading the country and bullying the king to this point, he is not a treacherous or evil", as long as he knows a little about the past, he will be speechless. Because every word he says is true! Don't worry, in the mouths of some masters, there are new explanations for everything!

Chen Qian said very calmly, "Regarding Sima Guang's matter, if you don't understand his inner world and his starting point, and doubt his behavior, then he may really be guilty." But you condemned him as a wicked man, and turned everything he did on his side. Then you are harming the country's Cheng dù, even stricter than him" Next is the point, Chen Qian gave his solution "Nowadays, there is only the abolition of the punkton. Impartiality, keeping the hull neutral and peaceful, is the only way to govern," Zhang Dian was amazed after hearing this, and thought for a long time. Indicates that it makes sense. He promised that after returning to Beijing, he would also take over and take a part of the government of the Yuan Yu period, and of course he would not engage in large-scale liquidation activities. Finally, in order to express his admiration and gratitude, he left Chen Qian for a meal.

Chen Qian got off the boat and left. The matter is not over yet, and the history books of the past dynasties always mention the table after Zhangdun. After returning to the capital, he threw aside what he had promised, and now he has exterminated the old party, which is really both faithless and murderous, a capricious thug and villain!

Returning to the court situation in the Shaosheng period, after the famous July liquidation, Kaifeng City gradually returned to calm, but don't think that Zhang Dian is satisfied. In his mind, it was just an eye-for-eye bargain! Want to be truly clear? The old party still has to pay the interest owed for these 9 years!

In September, the exemption law was reinstated. In the same year, the armor protection law was also restored.

On October 1, Lu Huiqing was appointed as the prefect of the daimyo. Since Lu Huiqing betrayed Wang Anshi, he has become the only person in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty who combines the sworn enemies of the old party and the public enemies of the new party. In the second half of his life, there was only one person who was friendly to him, and wanted him to return to the highest echelons of power and participate in the reform of the revitalization of the New Deal. It's a pity that the resistance is too great, although this person is fierce and tough, and no one dares to mess with it. However, in this matter, the old party and the new party are still all opposed. There's nothing this man can do, even if he's a Zhangduan... Han Zhongyan, a member of the Privy Council, and Zeng Bu, a member of the Privy Council, said, "If Huiqing is in the court, a good man and a gentleman will not be able to stand on his own." Zeng Bu also pointed his guns at Zhang Dan again, wanting to repeat the scene of shelling the headquarters within the New Party. And Song Zhezong, in order to balance and keep Zhang Dian, could only let Lu Huiqing go out of the court to serve as the prefect of the daimyo.

In October, Liang Yiqi conspired to rebel. He was killed by Xiao Lianghou, who relied on the name of Ah Wu, Ren Duo Baozhong and other royal generals.

When the end of the year came, the historiography team formed by the New Party headed by Cai Bian spent a year and came up with a new edition of "Records of Shenzong". This is a refutation of the first "Records of Shenzong" presided over by the Empress Dowager Gao and revised by Fan Zuyu, Huang Tingjian, Zhao Yanruo and others. In addition, Fan Zuyu, the editor-in-chief of the first "Records of Shenzong", was exiled to Yongzhou, Zhao Yanruo was exiled to Lizhou, and Huang Tingjian was exiled to Qianzhou. There is a big difference between the old and the new books, and the rewriting of this book, one to correct the name of the Divine Sect and the other to correct the name of the reformers, is the most important theoretical basis in the liquidation movement. With this thing, Zhang Dan can really do what he wants. What happens after that is the heart-wrenching revenge of Zhangton!

In Dali this year, Gao Shengtai abolished Duan Zhengming, the last emperor of Qianli, and established himself as king. And change the country name to Great China. The former Li officially died in the country.

This year, Po Ra Shu died of illness after being the head of the Jurchen tribe for 2 years, and time determined that he was only a transitional figure. He was succeeded by his fifth brother, Brother Ying.

In January of the 2nd year of Shaosheng (1095), Yang Wei, a servant of the Ministry known as 'Yang Sanbian', was kicked out of the imperial court and became known as the German army. Yang Wei first took refuge in Lu Dafang during the Yuan You period and impeached Liu Zhi, the leader of the Shuo Party. After the death of the Empress Dowager Gao and the pro-government of Song Zhezong, he transformed in time, betrayed Lu Dafang, and took refuge in Zhang Dian. At this time, the subordinate servant An Tao and the Chinese scholar Li Qingchen were at odds with Zhang Dan, and he betrayed Zhang Duan and took refuge in An and Li. Thinking about how Zhang Dian was a person who did not tolerate sand in his eyes, Yang Wei was naturally driven out of the court by him.

In July, the green seedlings were restored.

At the suburban ceremony that year, Song Zhezong announced: All sinners in the Yuanyou period will not be forgiven and will never be hired! At the end of the year, the attack area expanded again, from the ministers of Yuanyou to the middle-level cadres, and the officialdom of Kaifeng was changed in blood, and the functional departments really became the new party world... The New Party bloc from this point on. Regain state power!

On January 9, 1096, the last surviving member of the old party, Han Chung-yan, the son of Han Qi, was dismissed from the Privy Council.

The old account turned over to the nurse incident of the year. On August 23, Liu Anshi and Fan Zuyu were demoted again and demoted from the Yangtze River to Lingnan. At this time, Zhang Dun was happy to take revenge. For example, when Liu Anshi was demoted from the Nan'an Army to Yingzhou, Zhang Dian thought about it and inadvertently remembered some legends. Legend has it that Liu Anshi had a hard life, his mother entered Sichuan during pregnancy, fell from a horse into the valley, everyone thought she was dead, but a big tree caught her. This is the first catastrophe that has not been born. Grow into your 10s. Liu Anshi had an eye disease, and famous doctors near and far were helpless, seeing that he couldn't take care of himself and became disabled. But a veterinarian showed up and cured him... After that, he became a high-ranking official and a very popular minister. Everyone said that Liu An's life was so good...

Is it? Zhang Dian looked at the map, your life is good, then go south and go to Zhaozhou!

In the past 9 years, the invincible Yuanyu Party has become Zhangdun's toy. Life and death, honor and disgrace are all in his thoughts. Looking back at the humiliation, this is the husband returning the favor, repaying the grievances, and it is not too happy! Look farther away. Where are the young people who were full of enthusiasm for rejuvenating the country and saving the country? Is it his true nature to be cruel and angry at this time?

Fortunately, Zhang Dian never did anything but party struggle, as those vile old party members did. Under his leadership, the Song dynasty quickly came to life. Soon it achieved a glory that the Shenzong Dynasty could not even imagine!

Vitality and splendor appear simultaneously, and are reflected in both the inside and outside of the country. Vitality spreads in every corner of the country, and the indicators of agriculture and commerce, which were abandoned in the 9th year of Yuanyou, gradually rose with the restoration of the new law of Xining. It's a slow process of ascension, and you can't rush it, let alone rush it...

Glory comes from the frontier. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, every monarch devoted himself to expanding the territory and restoring the borders of the Han family. In this regard, Song Taizu did the most beautiful, Taizong did the most collapsed, Zhenzong Renzong won and lost each other, Shenzong made the most breakthrough, and recovering Xihe was an unprecedented initiative!

And the most shocking thing that shocked the world was Song Zhezong! Zhezong Dynasty deeply laid the spiritual imprint of Zhao Xu's youthful and energetic, retribution, and paranoid-like self-motivation. Of course, it is also full of the administrative style of the most tough, iron-fisted prime minister Zhang Dun in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty. Specific to the glorious frontier, it is the credit of another minister surnamed Zhang: Zhang Qi!

On September 13, Tubo Zampu Ali Gu died, and Zi Blind Zheng succeeded him.

Before the legend of the opening of the Zhezong Dynasty is about to start, we will first focus on the Song Dynasty. Something is wrong! On the 29th, Song Zhezong abolished his own Empress Meng!

Liu E arranged a marriage for Song Renzong that year, but the result was very unhappy, and Renzong was forced to abolish the queen. Empress Dowager Gao did the same, and also married a wife to Song Zhezong according to her own preferences, this matter was a farce from beginning to end, full of all kinds of incredible...

The queen is the mother of a country, how noble and noble? It's a big deal who to choose. Empress Dowager Gao also attached great importance to it, and she ordered bureaucratic families at all levels in Beijing to report the list of school-age girls, and the nuclear review team led by her was composed of major rulers and officials to select them one by one!

After being busy for more than half a year, a girl finally broke out of the encirclement and stood at the top of her destiny. This girl is really outstanding, first of all, she is good-looking, beautiful and beautiful. Secondly, she is of good character, chaste and virtuous. Once again, she was from a good background, and she was the granddaughter of the late Di Qing, the first person in the military and a privy envoy with outstanding military achievements! This is good, that's good, but it's a pity that the Empress Dowager Gao can't look down on it. She found the problem at the first moment with a woman's intuition, this girl can't be a queen anyway, and if she does, the world will definitely be in chaos!

Because she is so tough, this Miss Di actually has 3 mothers. They are the wife of Di Qing's eldest son Di Yan, the wife of Di Qing's second son Di Yong, and Di Yong's concubine...

A bit of a mess? To put it bluntly, she is a concubine, and the last concubine is her own mother. This social status made her very depressed at birth, and after being abused, her father Di Yong relented for a while, so he gave her to Uncle Di to raise.

This kind of plot is generally very lethal to older women, and if the girl is more delicate and graceful, it is simply their favorite treasure. It's a pity that this is ineffective for the Empress Dowager Gao. The old lady Gao smelled the danger for the first time - more mothers are equal to more relatives, which is equal to the infringement of royal power, and there are endless troubles in the future! As an intruder on royal power in the making, this is too sensitive for her. So she ordered: This election will be invalidated, and it will be re-elected!

This time, she adjusted the selection criteria and gave clear conditions - low background, small family, and low-key people. Only such children are easy to manage and will not rebel...

After 3 months, the election was chosen. Completely in line with her requirements, the girl's surname is Meng, her grandfather is the late Ma Jundu Yu Hou Meng Yuan, and her grandfather is very rare Wang Guangyuan, who is despised by both the old and new parties.

Wang Guangyuan has no diploma, but the official is not small, the reason is very simple, he is the intimate person of Song Yingzong, the husband of the Empress Dowager Gao, in view of the fact that Song Yingzong himself was completely intimate by the Empress Dowager Gao, so the intimate value was infinitely extended, passed down from generation to generation, and the girl of the Meng family made the Empress Dowager Gao very relieved...

On May 16, the 7th year of Yuanyou, Zhezong got married. This wedding is simply full of weirdness, and under the auspices of the old party, which claims to be the most authentic Confucian scholars, it is simply nondescript.

First of all, the specifications are super high, and the Empress Dowager Gao sent the entire set of slaughtering teams out to act as wedding officiants. Prime Minister Lü Dafang was appointed as the envoy of Fengying, Situ Han Zhongyan was appointed as the deputy envoy, Taiwei Su Song was appointed as the envoy of the register, Wang Yansu was appointed as the deputy envoy, Su Zhe of the second minister was appointed as the envoy of the proclamation, and Zhao Zongjing, the emperor's uncle, was appointed as the deputy envoy. In addition, people like Liang Tao and Liu Anshi also participated collectively, each taking care of their own shares...

The specifications are really high, but on the day of the wedding, the dignified emperor got married, and there was no drum group! Lu Dafang and others discussed collectively, quoted scriptures, and said that the big wedding held on this day was just not to have a musical scene. As for why? Boxes and boxes of ancient books will be smashed over, and there may be a whole year of reading... In this regard, the Empress Dowager Gao was convinced, and the ministers dared to argue with her about anything, and they really couldn't afford to provoke them. She thought about it, and it was obviously too shabby to have no music. What to do? She thought of a good way, and the "Long Edition" recorded that Qin Sheng (the honorific title of the old lady Gao) said, "I will not take care of him and the rulers, but she will arrange it" She hid a royal music team in the Xuande Gate, and when the palanquin to welcome the relatives entered the imperial city, she began to play... (To be continued......)
