Chapter 146: The Storm Begins
The news of the death of the wolf lord of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Aguda, soon spread to Bianliang City, Tokyo.
For a while, the entire Song court breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, it is to set up a new king. all sorts of power struggles, the division of interests between different tribes, and so on; Perhaps, the Jin State had a long period of internal strife, just like the Khitan Liao State in those years, resulting in an extremely weak national strength in a short period of time.
In the court of the Great Song Dynasty, there were many people who held this idea, especially the current saint - Huizong Tianzi.
The pressure some time ago was too great, and it has never been since Huizong ascended the throne; In particular, Tong Guan became jealous for a while, and forced Guo Yaoshi, the general of the Liao State, to switch to the Jin State, resulting in the weak front-line defense situation of the Great Song Dynasty being almost completely exposed in the eyes of the Jin State.
The court of the Great Song Dynasty suddenly became noisy, and the ministers were all worried; Originally, a group of old ministers favored by the emperor of Huizong, such as Tong Guan, etc., for a while, were like rats crossing the street
Now it's finally time to take a break.
Of course, there are also people in the imperial court who scoff at this view, and the crown prince and the prince and the master of the Qin Heavenly Prison, Master Ma Yize, are one of them.
On the contrary, Ma Yize believes that the invasion of the Jin people is imminent.
Because of this, Ma Yize and the crown prince Zhao Huan combined, and secretly invited the prime minister Wu Min and Shangshu Youcheng Li Gang to come to the secret room of the prince's mansion to discuss the prince's supervision of the country.
"What? Within three months, the Kingdom of Jin will invade our dynasty in a big way! β
Wu Min and Li Gang don't have much contact with the crown prince Zhao Huan on weekdays, but they came by appointment today, and they were suspicious. I don't know what is important for the prince of Lu Dao; Now I suddenly heard this earth-shattering news from the mouth of the prince. I couldn't react at once. I was stunned on the spot.
"Don't be surprised! I watched the celestial phenomena at night and found that the celestial phenomena were frequently changing: a new imperial star had appeared, purple qi was heading north, bulls were fighting against wolves, and the night was extremely blood-red. This kind of celestial phenomenon is an omen that the Jurchen Emperor's uncle Wanyan Wu begged to buy will get the great treasure of the Jin Kingdom, and then immediately send troops to invade our Great Song Dynasty in the south. β
Ma Yize knew that the words of the prince Zhao Huan were not weighty enough. It may not be possible to make Wu Min and Li Gang, two shrewd people, believe that they immediately used their own tricks.
"Why isn't Wanyan Aguta's son inheriting the throne, but his younger brother?" Li Gang questioned.
"Hehe" Ma Yize stroked his long beard and smiled lightly: "Ah Guda died suddenly, and he was bound to be unprepared; Ah Guta's sons are not yet full-fledged, and how can they be the opponents of their imperial uncle; The only way for him to deal with it is to invade the south as soon as possible in order to divert the public. β
"But," Li Gang asked.
As the first official of the imperial court. Li Gang is accustomed to asking questions about everything and getting to the bottom of it.
"Master Li doesn't need to ask." Ma Yize interrupted Li Gang's questioning and said: "I took a closer look at the Big Dipper according to the method of 'observing the time': I found that the Tianxuan Star was in full swing, extremely bright, and the bucket handle pointed north. β
Ma Yize paused for a moment, flipped the fingers of his left hand, made a calculation, and continued: "It is recorded in "Crane Guanzi" - the bucket handle refers to the east, and the world is spring; The bucket handle refers to the south, and the world is summer; The bucket handle refers to the west, and the world is autumn; The north finger of the bucket handle, the world is winter. The world is full of winter, and the main sword soldiers and living beings are also devastated. Therefore, Wu Qimai ascended the throne, and the southern invasion of the Jurchens was irreversible, and the fulfillment was within 7749 days. β
Observing time is the oldest form of astronomy in China, which is a method of determining seasonal changes and farming times by observing astronomical phenomena.
The specific operation is: at dusk every day, observe the position of the Big Dipper; The seasons are judged according to the regular changes of the Big Dipper and the surrounding stars.
In ancient times, when there was no calendar, it was used for a long time by the ancestors of the Han people.
As a foreigner, Ma Yize firmly occupied the position of Qintianjian Zhengtianshi, and after three dynasties, no one could shake him, relying on incomparably accurate astrology and divination. Now Ma Yize's words are conclusive, and he also clearly stated the time of fulfillment, and Wu Min and Li Gang can't help but believe it.
"If the Jurchens invade the south, I don't know what the prince will do?" Wu Min asked cautiously.
This kind of formation is already the prelude to the coup d'Γ©tat in the palace, Wu Min and Li Gang have been officials for many years, and they can probably estimate the thoughts of the crown prince Zhao Huan and Ma Yize.
"Today's emperor is mediocre and incompetent, I believe that the two of you are more painful than me, so I don't need to say more here."
Indeed, Huizong's suppression of the Yuanyou Party was the most among the emperors of the Song Dynasty. The most famous is the "Yuanyou Party Monument" erected by Taishi Cai Jing and inscribed by Huizong Tianzi's imperial pen, and there are more than 300 Yuanyou Party leaders such as Sima Guang, Su Shi, Su Zhe, Lv Gongzhu, and Lv Dafang.
What's worse is that Huizong also decided that the descendants of all the lists on the tablet will never be officials. The children of the royal family are also not allowed to marry the descendants of the ministers on this list. This is simply cutting off the way of the Yuanyou party.
If it weren't for the rebellion of the Golden Sword King last year, if it weren't for Yue Fei's rescue efforts, the Yuanyou party might have been wiped out by the "six thieves", where would there be today's situation.
Seeing that Wu Min and Li Gang both nodded in agreement, Ma Yize continued: "The prince thinks that the Jurchens invaded the south, and with the current emperor and Tong Guan and other six thieves, they are no longer able to support the overall situation, and they have ruined the country of Zhao and Song in vain; If the crown prince comes out to supervise the country in advance and reorganize the government, there may still be a chance."
"Then how do we cooperate with the prince?" Wu Min and Li Gang were quite satisfied with the prospects and promises made by the crown prince and Ma Yize.
Ma Yize said with a smile: "The Jin people invade the south, the court is bound to be shaken, and it is helpless, if the two adults propose to supervise the country by the prince at this time"
The plan was perfect, but Wu Min and Li Gang were shocked in their hearts, they couldn't imagine that this prince, who was famous for his filial piety and incompetence, had so much strength in his hands
At the same time, the inner hall of Yuefu in Yuejia Village.
The small seed is slightly related to the master of the public race, Master Dao, Yao Anren, and Yue Fei have been talking secretly for a long time.
The seed master Dao came this time to make sure that Yue Fei had no idea of becoming an emperor.
Although he had received information from County Lord Li before, Yue Feizhi was not here; But the stakes are very high, and the Seed Master Dao still has to communicate with Yao Anren and Yue Fei again.
For the Seed Master Dao, the best choice is of course to put Yue Fei on the throne of the emperor, followed by King Kang.
As expected, Yao Anren and Yue Fei did not have the heart to compete for the throne, and they agreed with the support for King Kang's ascension to the throne.
King Kang's mother, Concubine Wei, is from a similar background to Concubine Yao, and is like a sister; And the last time Yue Fei was in Bianliang City, he had a close relationship with King Kang, and King Kang also sent a piece of his private seal to Yue Fei to show his trust.
The most important thing is that Yue Fei was influenced by Zhou Dong and thought that he was a man among the gods, and he would definitely be born in the world in the future, and he would no longer be nostalgic for the things of Hongchen, let alone be bound by the court
