These words praised the Empress Dowager Cao, and the Empress Dowager Cao's anger began to disappear. But Ouyang Xiu then brought out Renzong to threaten Empress Dowager Cao, "The first emperor blessed the world, so the world supports the heir set up by the first emperor in this way." Otherwise, the queen mother is just a woman in the deep palace, and the ministers are no more than five or six scholars. We have no deterrent power against the world. The reason why the whole world obeys orders is because Zhao Shu is the choice of His Majesty Renzong! So you, a woman in the deep palace, don't think about disobeying your husband's orders! That's what all the conversation is about!

Empress Dowager Cao was silent. She knew that Zhao Shu had disobeyed her, but if she wanted to abolish Zhao Shu, she would have disobeyed her husband. I couldn't undo it for a moment...

When she was silent, the ministers of the two provinces had already bowed to her one by one to say goodbye. Who wins and who loses, we know that we have bullied the "first widow in the world", just when the "first husband in the world" Emperor Renzong has just entered the ground and his bones are not cold! But everyone knows that this is still only half the battle! The current emperor, Mr. Zhao Shu, who is stupid or not, and who is stupid, should also be re-educated! That's not how the emperor became! If you don't figure him out, there will be endless things like this in the future, and something big will happen one day!

A few days later, Zhao Shu faced the visiting ministers of the two governments, and only said 6 words, "The Queen Mother treats me without kindness" The sentence reminded Han Qi of when he first entered the palace, Zhao Shu carried so many books with him, which really made them cry and laugh! Even the most basic filial piety, kindness, courtesy, letting... I don't know, what have you learned!

Next, the bigwigs of the Song Dynasty took turns to make up for the emperor's etiquette lessons. First of all, Han Qi said, "Since ancient times, there have been many Holy Emperors and Ming Kings, but only Shun is a great filial son." It's not that everyone else is unfilial, parents are kind and their children are filial, which is nothing. Only when the parents are unkind and the children are still filial, this is commendable. Did Your Majesty do it? In fact, as long as His Majesty fulfills his filial piety, how can his parents be unkind?" Zhao Shu began to sober up. The history books of the past dynasties say this. They all praise Han Qi's fairness and Zhao Shu's timely correction. But from another point of view, you will find it very funny: May I ask Zhao Shu, who is 32 years old, who claims to love books like his life and has sound knowledge, actually asked someone to tell the allusions of Shun and what is filial piety? What's going on? And he actually made sense as soon as he said it, and he could change it immediately, what is going on? There can only be one explanation: this slut is faking illness at all!

After Han Qi finished speaking, the other ministers were not reassured, and they used every opportunity to correct the emperor's ideological style problems. There are a lot of people, and I pick two main ones: Lu Gong and Liu Chang. They are Zhao Shu's royal teachers, one speaks the "Analects" and the other talks about the "Historical Records", and on December 2, they started to lecture in the Yiying Pavilion. Liu Chang is talking about the beginning of "Historical Records": Why did Yao choose Shun as his successor? The reason is that Shun is a well-known filial son in the world! The voice outside the string warned Zhao Shu: Do you slut still want to continue to sit on the throne? Then do the word 'filial piety' well!

Under this condemnatory exhortation, Song Yingzong and Zhao Shu finally repented, and his illness began to "improve". After the start of the new year. The ministers decided to let him officially go to work. This involves a very head-scratching question - how to get the Empress Dowager Cao off work?

First of all, it is necessary to prove to the world that the emperor's "illness" has been cured. On April 28, the first year of Zhiping (1064), Song Yingzong took the big chariot out of the imperial city and went to Xiangguo Temple to pray for rain. Take the opportunity to appear in public and prove your health... To prove that health still needs to prove ability: Han Qi handed over more than a dozen urgent documents in one go, asking Song Yingzong to give instructions in a matter of moments. Zhao Shu was also very competitive, and it was all approved soon. These documents were transferred to the Empress Dowager Cao... According to the procedure, these documents still need to be reviewed by the Queen Mother, who is listening to the government at this time, before deciding whether to issue them.

This is the last chance for the Empress Dowager Cao to fight back. She can find a bone in the egg, saying that the instructions of these documents are wrong! Bite this bite. in order to prevent Zhao Shu from resetting. It's a pity that there is no information to prove whether she is really aware of the danger, Empress Dowager Cao's reaction is to watch them one by one, nodding frequently: Okay, everything is handled correctly...

Han Qi got everything he wanted. May 13th. The conditions are ripe to force the Queen Mother to remove the curtain!

Regarding the removal of the curtain of the Empress Dowager Cao, there are 3 versions of the official history and notes. Let's talk about the notes first, the most popular and dramatic statement comes from "Tiewei Mountain Cong Talk", in which Han Qi is the most incredible strongman in the history of the Two Song Dynasty. What Zhao Pu, Lu Yijian, Wang Anshi, Zhang Dan, Cai Jing, Qin Hui, Jia Yidao... It's all little ants! Which of them dares to falsely preach the holy decree and force the palace with the Golden Palace, and do what they say without communicating with any ministers in advance? Han Qi dare!

13th Morning Meeting. The ministers gathered outside the curtain of the Empress Dowager Cao, Han Qi suddenly came to the curtain and said, "The Empress Dowager is Shengde Guangda, Xu Guizheng is the son of heaven, there is an edict here, please implement it immediately" The Empress Dowager Cao in the curtain was shocked, and before she could reply, Han Qi stood up and ordered the left and right servants to "remove the curtain" These two words are decisive, in ancient times, women had to cover up, even if the Queen Mother, there had to be a curtain to block the man. At this time, Empress Dowager Cao jumped up like a conditioned reflex and hid in the inner palace... The curtain removal operation was a success!

But in fact, Empress Dowager Cao missed another opportunity. When she ducks back, her savior has stepped in: the Privy Envoy Fubi!

When Han Qi ordered the curtain to be removed, Fu Bi had already climbed the steps and was about to speak. But the curtain suddenly rolled up, and only Song Yingzong and Zhao Shu sat alone in the hall. Fu Bi's reaction was to immediately turn around and go down to the palace, without saying anything to the emperor. Han Qi chased him out, and explained with a smile, "I didn't communicate with Fu Gong in advance, because I was afraid that I would disagree and delay the date of returning to power" Fu Bi ignored him at all, and left the palace directly in anger!

This is the end of this first version. There are true and false ones, it is really Fu Bi's anger towards Han Qi, the two of them have long been incompatible enemies, so it is reasonable for Han Qi to keep Fu Bi secret in advance. The fake is too child's play. Who issued the edict that Han Qi was talking about? It can only be Zhao Shu or Empress Dowager Cao herself. If it's Zhao Shu's? I'm sorry, but it's still the curtain and his order doesn't take effect! So it's Empress Dowager Cao's? In other words, Empress Dowager Cao has agreed to remove the curtain, so what is she all afraid about?

Especially Fu Bi has long been unbearable with Han Qi, whether it is during Fu Bi's mourning or the upcoming battle between the courts, the two of them are fighting to the death! How could he not even say a word on his lips, and go straight down to the palace in anger? He just needs to stretch out his hand to Han Qi to ask for the edict and show it to me! Who wrote it exactly? That's it!

So this version is not credible.

Let's look at the second type of the notebook version: Han Qi has become a thief. This version is much more shrewd than the previous one, and it points out the crux of the problem from the beginning - the seal of the Son of Heaven!

The reason why the queen mothers who listened to the government were able to command the whole country was because they took the imperial seal for themselves. In this version, Han Qi thought left and right. There is no way to let the Queen Mother take the initiative to hand over to the public. So I did something during the rain prayer half a month ago. He took advantage of the queen mother and the emperor to leave the palace, and quietly got the imperial seal. As for how to do it, the wording is very subtle, called "stay"... I don't know how to "stay" the law?

When the imperial seal arrived, Han Qi was bold, he first praised the queen mother in front of the curtain, and as soon as the wind changed, he talked about the imperial history platform and the Zhiyuan, saying that the officials of the Taiwan government collectively asked the queen mother to withdraw the curtain. Empress Dowager Cao was furious (finally angry): "Teaching and doing is also a fairy, and not teaching and doing is also a fairy." Isn't it too much for you to persecute like this?"

Han Qi ignored it, and ordered Yi Luan Si to withdraw the curtain. The second version is like this, with a newer idea and a bigger flaw: how important is the Imperial Seal of the Son of Heaven? Empress Dowager Cao knows very well! So she stayed by her side all the time, and she didn't hand it over after the curtain was removed! That's why we have some other stories later...

The third version: The process of removing the curtain of the Empress Dowager Cao in the official history record is very simple. First of all, Han Qi chose an opportunity to face alone, and after the routine work report that day, the other ministers left, and Han Qi stayed. applied to the Queen Mother to leave the capital and go to other places to become a state official.

Empress Dowager Cao understood as soon as she heard it: "Can the prime minister ask for retreat?" It's me who should retreat. The old body lives in the deep palace, and he is here every day, and he is not even himself. And let the old man retreat first"

Han Qi was very moved, he counted the mistakes of the previous generations of the Empress Dowagers, praised the benevolence of the current Empress Dowager, and praised the unfinished fun. After kneeling down and bowing, he stood up and continued to praise. Until the Queen Mother stood up inside the curtain, as if she didn't want to listen to it. Prepare to return to the palace. Han Qi seized the opportunity and immediately ordered the Yiluan Division to roll the blinds! The movement is very fast, the curtain is rolled up, and the shadow of the queen mother's clothes can be seen passing over the screen...

The process is more credible, the more urgent the matter is delayed, and the more important the problem, the easier it is to solve it in a relaxed atmosphere. And Empress Dowager Cao's behavior is also more in line with her consistent temperament. She doesn't want to take power, the curtain is forced to do it, and she will naturally not make a big move when she withdraws the curtain. The only move was that she left a back hand and left the seal of the Son of Heaven...

This quickly turned out to be very sensible!

Empress Dowager Cao withdrew the curtain, Zhao Shu was in power, this moment is what Zhao Shu, a slut, has been waiting for! Finally about to start doing what he wanted to do the most, but didn't dare to do before...

He ordered Renzong's daughters to move out of the palace and vacate the house for his daughters to live in. Then all his children were added to the rank of knight, not enough once, and they were continuously superimposed until the children of the idle clan became princes and princesses. As for the Empress Dowager Cao? It's like he doesn't have this person, and he never asks Ann to visit!

This is really depressing, there are many unfair, unjust, and unfilial bad deeds in the world, but few people do it as narrow-minded and dark as Zhao Shu.

As an emperor, all the famous people in the world are out of his thoughts, and if he can't give even a little to the orphans of his adoptive father, will it be a great loss? And Empress Dowager Cao, even if there are thousands of resentments, for the sake of the imperial seal, for the sake of his own reputation, he should do some face-saving projects, right? But Zhao Shu doesn't! Because he cares so much! Only when a person cares too much and values something too much, can he be impatient and unscrupulous to fight for it. Thinking back to the refusal he gave in and ran away when he first entered the palace, what a big contrast!

The true face of Zhao Shu's slut was gradually revealed, and it was also clearly seen by the ministers, and they were diverted. Some people chose to support, like Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu, to serve the leader unconditionally. More people became silent, unconcerned and hung high. Some people kept their distance from him, such as Sima Guang. Master Sima is well versed in history, and people like Lu Dao can't get along at all, and they are not filial sons and disloyal ministers, which also applies to the emperor, and non-filial sons do not know the king...

Some people chose confrontation. Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people, even if you become an emperor, don't want to cover the sky with one hand! This person is Fu Bi. From the initial envoy to the Liao State and the dignity of the Great Song Dynasty, to the Qingli New Deal, to the cooperation with Fan Zhongyan, and then to become the prime minister of the empire again with Wen Yanbo... And now, the 'real prime minister' is finally back!

Now let's talk about the grievances between Fu Bi and Han Qi. It must be made clear, otherwise everyone will misunderstand what he is doing next, whether he is loyal to Renzong or morality, or simply against Han Qi?

In the Qingli New Deal, Fu Bi and Han Qi were comrades-in-arms, and at that time, people called "Fu Han" were good partners in their impressions? Actually, it's all wrong!

A person who abides by principles should never want to live in peace with a domineering person. There are many examples of this in real life, do you want to do everything according to the rules and maintain justice? But there will always be some people who jump out and tear down the stage! The wonderful thing is that these people are often still your subordinates... Han Qi is like this, he not only showed the difficult action in the office survival skills in the battle with Fu Bi - how to squeeze out the leader, but also perfectly interpreted his uniqueness in the officialdom of the Northern Song Dynasty: 1 Among the civil ministers, he is the strongest general. 2 Among the military generals, he is a genuine civil servant. 3 In the large group of civil servants and military generals, he always relied on the emperor for the closest. These three points give everyone a headache, especially these three points happen to be Fu Bi's weakness.

Fu Bi is a good leader, and he is good because he is polite, honest and disciplined, and does not bully others. But he just ran into Han Qi. Referring to the first of Han Qi's three characteristics: the strongest military general in Wenchen, he can't eat and walk... The specific manifestation is that he can't stand a fellow soldier like a ruffian.

Han Qi fought in the northwest, maybe he was infected, after he returned to the imperial court, he always talked about the army, and even took his usual office to be very "bold" One day in the political hall, he fought endlessly with Fu Bi for one thing, it stands to reason that Fu Bi was the prime minister at that time, the No. 1 leader in Tianzi, you Han Qi is the second minister, and it is wrong to talk too much! But Han Qi doesn't! After several unsuccessful exchanges, he suddenly took the lead in impatience "You chatter again" Fu Bi's face changed on the spot, chatter is a folk word, even the rich businessmen at that time did not say, the central hub of the Great Song Dynasty has actually become a vegetable market! He broke off and shouted, "What is the word" Han Qi just shrugged his shoulders and didn't react. A strong life doesn't need to be explained!

This is usually a small meaning, and Han Qi's characteristic can also make Fu Bi go downhill and fall from the pinnacle of power. (To be continued......)
