Chapter 7 Study Class (2)
"Studying in class?"
Ding Bo chewed on this noun that had never existed before, his face was cloudy, and he didn't know how to react.
Li Gang didn't wait for him to think too much, and immediately said: "You can go to see Your Majesty now, and the residence in the city will also be arranged." After two days of rest, you can start the class. ”
"Okay, thank you to Li Xianggong."
Everyone had nothing to say, and at the moment they gave up their hands, and they went out of the hall one after another. After they went out, they were led in the direction of the palace.
Seeing that everyone was dissatisfied, He Su and other old ministers were even more gearing up, obviously wanting to go to the emperor and complain, Li Gang shook his head again and again, and sighed loudly.
These were obviously all the emperor's ideas, and he also asked the emperor to issue an edict to the world that day, but unexpectedly, the emperor put all these things on his head.
Thinking of Zhao Huan, he seemed to be smiling, and said to him: "The secretary is a military and state affairs of Pingzhang, and the secretary also agrees with these things, so why do you have to give an edict?" ”
Li Gang only felt that the emperor was talking about crooked reasoning, and he would be for a while, but he didn't know how to refute it.
In fact, the matter is very simple, at least on the surface, Zhao Huan strengthened the power of the prime minister and took the initiative to weaken the power of the monarch. Everything comes from the political hall, which is equivalent to the cabinet responsibility system of later generations, and all achievements are related to Li Gang. And with Zhao Huan's political skills, he naturally doesn't have to worry about Li Gang gaining power.
Monarchy has been in power for thousands of years, and the monarchy has become stronger and stronger, and the monarchy has become weaker and weaker. During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Prime Minister Shen Tujia was dissatisfied with the emperor's favor of the minister Deng Tong, so he issued an order from the Prime Minister's Mansion to summon Deng Tong, intending to kill him.
Deng informed him of this, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly entered the palace and begged the emperor for help in front of Emperor Wen of Han. The emperor had no choice but to let Deng Tong go to the Prime Minister's Mansion first, so that he could beg for mercy. Then he sent someone to intercede and saved Deng Tong's life.
By the time of Emperor Wu, officials such as Zhongshu Ling began to be set up to divide the power of the prime minister with the inner court. By the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the chairs were removed and he had to stand and talk to the emperor.
The emperor's power is getting bigger and bigger, and there is nothing he can't manage. The power of the prime minister is getting weaker and weaker, and this trend has changed slightly in Chang'an, which has been in Jingkang for five years.
This change can only give Li Gang, who is in charge of Pingzhang's military affairs, a headache at present, and he can't figure out how to figure it out, although he bears heavy responsibility, the emperor is waiting to leave everything to himself.
For example, all the ideas for dealing with the officials who were released by the Jin people were decided by the emperor himself, and he only praised Xiangxiang to assist, but he gave orders and took all the responsibilities.
The pedestrian division was obviously held by the emperor, but it was in the name of the political hall.
And in this way, the emperor greeted him in advance, obtained his consent, but taught him that he had no refusal, and he carried the black pot one after another, but he could only be willing to do it, and he knew that he was suffering.
He was suffering from his old face here, but Zhao Huan was also upset.
In the past few months, with the political experience accumulated in the past, he firmly grasped the political and military power of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Ten Roads and reformed the political system, but only slightly changed.
As for the economic system and the military system, although I have a lot of ideas in my heart, I can't start for the time being. All kinds of things are complicated and complicated, and all kinds of forces are entangled.
The most bitter thing for him now is that there are too few people available at hand.
Set up the Pedestrian Division, he has already sent Fei Lun and other henchmen to the guards, because they are still young and inexperienced, they can only temporarily do some small things to collect intelligence and accumulate experience, and it will take two years before they can be of great use.
After the beginning of the spring, it was originally to reform the official system and eliminate redundant officials and redundant personnel, but before it started, there was a news that the Jin people were suing for peace and releasing the captured high-ranking officials.
In this way, his predetermined steps were disrupted.
And the new third envoy Zhao Kai came to visit, which brought him no good news. Although the army has stopped fighting for half a year, the army still has to be paid, the officials have a lot of money, and the taxes collected cannot be increased. At the same time, the supplies crowded over from all walks of life in the south of the Yangtze River are less than one day a day.
This is naturally Zhao Gou playing tricks, Sichuan and Shaanxi urged the documents one after another, and the other party did not say no, but just took a "drag" decision, but it has already made Zhao Huan's head big.
Sichuan and Shaanxi Ten Road, calculated at most 20 million yuan of income, of which ninety percent is used on the army and officials, his palace expenses can no longer be saved, except for dozens of eunuchs and palace maids from Tokyo, there is nothing else. Even so, it seems that it is difficult to make ends meet.
Although Zhao Kai is a financial manager, in the end, he is limited by the times, and he cannot propose any really effective methods, so he can only repeatedly reduce redundant expenses and tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.
Just as he was disturbed, a eunuch came forward and said softly: "Official, there is He Su and others outside asking to see him." ”
"Oh, it's here."
Zhao Huan reluctantly retracted his thoughts and ordered, "Announce them in." ”
"Yes, Lord's Will."
The eunuch went as ordered, and after a short time, he had brought more than a dozen people with him.
He Su fell to his knees with a flutter and cried: "Your Majesty......"
And the rest of them also fell to their knees and wept.
Zhao Huan looked at them, and the slightest emotion in his heart was also inadequate.
At the moment, he indifferently ordered: "Zhu Qing got up, there is no need to be like this." ”
After everyone's mood calmed down a little, Zhao Huan said to He Su: "Qing is from the Five Kingdoms, how is my father, how is the situation going?" ”
He Su replied: "The Emperor Taishang first heard that His Majesty had fled, and his heart was anxious, and he could not eat or sleep. Later, when I heard that His Majesty had successfully escaped, the Emperor Taishang was ecstatic, and the two were intertwined, and he suffered a little bit of wind and cold, but it was half a month in the bedroom, and the better. Before the minister returned, the Emperor Taishang took the minister's hand and said: I hope that Wu'er will take me back earlier, and the secretary will bring this words. ”
Zhao Huan stepped down from the throne, stared at him, and asked, "Does the Emperor have anything else to say?" ”
He Su shook his head and said, "There is nothing else to say." ”
Zhao Huan shook his head again and again, so he had to sit back again. He knew in his heart that Zhao Ji must have been warned by the Jurchens to prevent him from making a decision between Zhao Huan and the Zhao Gou brothers, so as to make the situation in the Song Dynasty even more chaotic.
At the moment, I was disappointed in my heart, so I had to say a few perfunctory words, greeted these ministers about their daily life, and after the answer was over, he said lazily: "Zhuqing must know the arrangement of the capital hall, and go down to rest first, and go to re-study government affairs in two days, and when the study is successful, the capital hall will be re-arranged." ”
He Su and the others originally wanted to seek him to complain, but when they saw the emperor talking like this, their hearts were already half cold. Ding Bo was unwilling to be like this, so he mustered up the courage to say at the moment: "The ministers have been officials for many years, and they are familiar with political affairs, so where can they learn again." Li Xianggong arranged it like this, and the ministers were not convinced. ”
Zhao Huan didn't like him very much, and when he saw him like this, he shouted: "Qing is familiar with government affairs? On the day Tokyo was besieged, Qing had no way to report to the country, only to collect gold and silver from the people of Tokyo to feed the enemy army, and listen to what Guo Jing said nonsense, with the god of Liujia to help the Great Song Dynasty? It's ridiculous! I was mistaken, how can I be wrong again! If you are not satisfied with Li Xianggong's arrangement, Yazhou is a good place for you! ”
Since Zhao Huan ascended the throne, he has never been so angry, even if the city of Tokyo was broken that day, he did not blame his subordinates so much.
Ding Bo's face was red with fright, his eyes rolled white, and he was about to faint when he saw it.
Zhao Huan brushed his sleeves up, didn't care about him, and only ordered Zhao Kai, who was standing on the side: "Zhao Qing come in, I still have something to ask." ”
The rest of the people had to fall on their knees and prostrate their heads, not daring to say more.
Zhao Huan was about to enter, but suddenly stared at Qin Hui and ordered, "Qin Qing also comes in." ”
Qin Hui was taken aback, it turned out that there was a ghost in his heart, and the emperor was angry, but he didn't know how to suddenly think of him, and he didn't know whether it was evil or lucky.
At that moment, he had to answer: "The minister obeys the order." ”
