CHAPTER XXV

Zhao Huan smiled slightly, helped him up, and said a few words of gentle comfort before letting him go back.

He walked slowly with his hands on his shoulders, and on the streets of this spring day, the night breeze was blowing slowly, which was pleasant. On the way, he encountered several groups of fire patrolmen, and he had already been driven away by the royal squad who accompanied him.

When he walked slowly to the west corner gate in front of the palace, Kang Chengxun, who was accompanying him, knew that as soon as he entered the palace, it would be difficult for him to speak again, so he took two steps forward and said to Zhao Huan: "Official, the minister has something to say." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Huan turned his head, looked at Kang Chengxun, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Kang Chengxun said in a deep voice: "Don't the officials remember what this Qin did when he went to Beijing in the Jin Kingdom?" He is cold and deep, resourceful and wise, and in the right way, he can speak well, and he is simply a character like Shaozhengmao. The official family forgave the ministers bluntly, this kind of person cannot be trusted, and it cannot be reused. My dynasty has always focused on character, and the emperor's use of Cai Jing is a mistake, if this Qin Hui is the phase, the future will definitely be a disaster not under Cai Jing. ”

Zhao Huan listened quietly, and when he finished speaking, he was noncommittal.

Kang Chengxun was in a hurry, took two steps forward, and said: "Official, the minister has concluded that this Qin Hui is a figure like Li Linfu and Cai Jing, if the official family does not notice, there will be a big disaster in the future!" ”

Zhao Huan finally had no choice but to remain silent, and took a few quick steps forward, seeing Kang Chengxun silent.

Kang Chengxun knew what he meant, and immediately turned around and waved his hand to stop the rest of the guards.

When there were only the two of them around, Zhao Huanfang whispered to him: "You are the commander of my palace, you must know that you are my most trusted minister?" ”

Kang Chengxun did not hesitate, and immediately replied: "The minister knows, it doesn't matter whether the official family is happy or not. Be sure to be blunt! ”

"Well, I am glad that you have such faithfulness."

Zhao Huan first nodded and praised, and then said: "Zhuge Liang said, and many scholars and doctors in later generations also said that they want the monarch to be close to the virtuous ministers and far from the villain." But in fact, there can be not only gentlemen around the monarch, but also villains. Why did Wu Zetian use Junchen and Zhou Xing? Because she took the woman to the throne as the emperor, how many people around her were not convinced. How many people are plotting in the shadows to oust her from power and re-establish Li Tang? Isn't she afraid? Lai Junchen and Zhou Xing have killed a lot of people, but how many people have died unjustly, compared to the throne, who is lighter and who is heavier? ”

Kang Chengxun said hurriedly: "The official family is different from Wu Zetian, she is a usurper and rebel, and she ascends to the throne as a woman. Naturally, people's hearts are not attached. The official family is the eldest son of Emperor Taishang, the justifiable Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, how can he surrender his identity so much! ”

Zhao Huan smiled coldly and said to him: "Things are different but the same." Cheng Xun, why did my Great Song Dynasty break the city of Tokyo, and the prince, prince, princess and concubine were escorted to the Five Kingdoms City, like cattle and sheep? ”

Kang Chengxun Nuo Nuo sounded. But there is no answer.

He wanted to say that the emperor and the official father and son were incompetent, so that they lost the country, but he couldn't say it.

Zhao Huan knew that he couldn't answer, so he said again: "Since Emperor Renzong celebrated the new policy, and then Emperor Shenzong used Wang Anshi to change the law, it didn't work, why?" Qingli New Deal used Fan Zhongyan, and Shenzong used Wang Anshi, they are all gentlemen, and they all want to enrich the country and strengthen the army. can be messed around, and in the end, they all pay Zhu water, because they are too gentlemanly and too square. This kind of thing is to make the country rich and strong, and the people are rich and strong, but who is the loser when the country is strong and the people are rich? It is the scholars who lose, and the officials and nobles who lose! So, why did the scholars and the imperial relatives change the law and why did they support the new policy? But it is precisely they who have the power in their hands that even the emperors of previous dynasties cannot be underestimated. Emperor Shinjong couldn't re-measure the land around Tokyo, and you think about how terrifying this power is. Now there is a strong enemy outside the Great Song Dynasty, and the inside is really tired, if I deal with it with the usual law, it can only be a partial situation within ten years, and ten years later, people will settle down, the Jin State will be ruled by dividing the river with my Song Dynasty according to the north, and the Northern Expedition can only be in vain, or after the bloody battle, it can only be an inch, and the bitter land is still the people. This Qin someone, don't I know what kind of person he is? Watching his deeds, listening to his words, and observing his deeds, the young man is ambitious and ambitious, but he can't endure hardships and can't straighten his waist. In the northern country, Jin Ren is like a father, and after he comes back, he is desperately depressed, and once he gets his will, he will definitely get power. However, this kind of villain has an advantage, that is, the top is good, and the bottom must follow. Whatever the monarch likes, they must flatter the monarch, they have no ideals themselves, and the monarch's thoughts are their thoughts. I want to change the law to become stronger today, and there is a most capable candidate in front of me, why not? Do you use Li Gang? He's too upright and too old. Zhu Shengfei, a mediocre person. Xie Liang, Zhang Suo, is not enough to be in front of him. Zhang Jun, Zhi Dacai Shu, Zhao Ding, the amount of gas is small. After thinking about it, Qin Huide is not enough to pass, I use it as a capable official, and I abandon it is just an edict, so what is there to fear. ”

He spoke at length in order to convince Kang Chengxun and to convince himself.

In any case, using such a big traitor instead of slaughtering him with a knife is also very sad for him.

Kang Chengxun was originally a martial artist with a straightforward personality, so he persuaded Zhao Huan not to use Qin Hui's move. At this time, the emperor was so reckless, telling himself that the emperor's mind was obviously defenseless, he was extremely moved in his heart, and said with a red face: "The minister is too reckless, I don't know that the official family has its own opinions, if you openly impeach that Fengjun, I am afraid that it will ruin the official family." ”

Zhao Huan smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "If you have any ideas, it's best to talk to me first." Outside, you are a military attache and a close minister, and it is good for the government to look at it, and it is no good to say more. ”

Kang Chengxun had nothing to say, and replied awe-inspiringly: "Yes, the minister must follow the official teachings." ”

The two were speechless for a while, and after half a ring, they saw that the back door was in sight, and many guards guarding the door saw Zhao Huan from a distance and had already greeted him. Kang Chengxun couldn't help it, and said: "Official, although Qin Hui is reasonable, but the minister always feels that the villain is ambitious, and it is no wonder that he is uncomfortable. ”

Zhao Huan sneered softly and replied: "I have the authority in my hand, and when I use him, I will naturally give him a blessing, and when I don't use it, it is common to erase him with one stroke." ”

After that, he walked away with his hands and no longer paid attention to this straight-hearted warrior.

Kang Chengxun was dumbfounded, and after half a sound, Fang thought: "The official family said this, it was really scary." ”

Zhao Huan ignored him, and he was surrounded by the guards of the brigade. Enter from the corner gate of the palace gate and enter the big inside.

When they arrived at the gate of the inner courtyard, the guards could not enter, only a few young eunuchs stepped forward, holding lanterns, and welcomed Zhao Huan into the courtyard. The palace in Chang'an City is just a little rebuilt by the Yamen. The regulation is narrow, and it is barely divided into the outer court and the inner court. In fact, the distance is just a courtyard wall, Zhao Huan receives officials every day, handles political affairs, and passes through a courtyard wall of blue bricks and blue tiles. You can go to the main hall of the outer courtyard. And after dealing with politics every day, stepping into the walls of this small courtyard, there will be no entry into external affairs and no internal affairs. It's a small world of its own.

Zhao Huan is from modern times, and he originally didn't like the eunuch system of mutilating people's bodies, so he made up his mind not to accept a physically disabled and mentally unhealthy eunuch in his hands. It's just that the original hundreds of eunuchs came from all over the place to vote, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to keep them all.

After a long time, he slowly realized the benefits of eunuchs.

Many of these people are physically disabled and abandoned by their families and parents. is alone, and is discriminated against by the world. There was nothing but an emperor in his eyes. Of course, relying on the emperor to accumulate money, or like Li Xian and Tong Guan, become the commander of the army, a very popular minister, is also the hope of eunuchs.

Zhao Huan naturally will not use eunuchs to command the army and supervise the army, nor will he use eunuchs in the spy organization. However, as the owner of the people, enjoying the meticulous care of hundreds of people also made him feel a little fun as an emperor in this era.

Of course, holding power and holding the life and death of millions of people in your hands is the greatest pleasure of being a man. It is also the biggest motivation to support Zhao Huan to survive in this era. The most reasonable old saying is exactly that: What should a husband do?

Although he maintains a simple image to the outside world, in fact, in Zhao Huan's opinion, the current enjoyment is enough.

Entering the room, it is spacious and gorgeously decorated, and Zhou Ding Qin Yi is displayed in it.

A one-person high tub with hot water. Five or six beautiful palace maids are lined up in a circle, with slender hands and a fragrant fragrance. After taking a bath, change into a soft cotton middle coat, and leave a bed brother to be served at will, which is naturally full of spring.

Zhao Huan doesn't need to be abstinent, but he is not a love saint. In ancient times, do you want to go to pick up girls and fall in love? It's stupid. Although he did not agree to the large-scale draft of his subordinates outside and harassed the people, he secretly sent people to carefully select women from good families, all of whom were tolerant and docile, and young women of about sixteen or seventeen years old, waiting by his side.

He has already suffered the losses of modern women, and he needs to give in, coax her, follow her, and finally turn his face into an enemy. It was these ancient young girls who regarded him as the sky, regarded him as everything, and every move in life was to please him.

A man can do this, give what he wants, but what can he say.

When he got up on the second day, he immediately summoned the Hanlin Bachelor, and the draft edict canonized Qin Hui as the governor of the political affairs and the secretary of the Chinese book.

The edict appointing a prime minister should be countersigned by another prime minister before it can be completed. Song Taizu dismissed Fan Zhen and the other three prime ministers, and there were only three prime ministers at that time, and they were dismissed together. As a result, when the new prime minister Zhao Pu was appointed, there was no other prime minister to sign it, and a big joke was made.

Zhao Huan sent an edict, and because Li Gang was not there, there were Xie Liang and other governors who signed countersigns. Although Zhu Shengfei was reluctant in his heart, he had to follow the painting.

After they countersigned, the Zhongshu Province sent someone to send the edict to the Qin Mansion, and Qin Hui received the edict and thanked the emperor.

Such a big event, other officials have not yet come to congratulate, the family members of the Qin Mansion are overjoyed, cheering, and kneeling down in the court, congratulating Qin Hui.

Qin Hui was not happy, and after holding the edict to the inner hall and putting it away, his wife Wang saw that he was not only unhappy, but had a sad face, and couldn't help but wonder: "What the Xianggong has asked for in his life is just today, why don't you like it and worry about it?" ”

Qin Hui sighed: "I naturally want to sell the emperor's family, and I will enter the picture, and my life is extreme." However, last night I had a long talk with His Majesty, and for a while I was out of my mouth, although His Majesty appreciated me and gave me this prime minister's hat. However, I am afraid that it will be eventful and laborious from now on, and there will never be peace. What I am even more afraid of is that in the future, I will be infamous, and Your Majesty will deal with me like that mistake, it is really a Huangliang dream, and it will be even more desolate when I wake up! ”

He bared his teeth and said, "I know this, but I can't bear this great wealth, but I can't help it." Anyway, wealth and danger are sought, and I am afraid of the tail, and Aneng is my Qin Hui! ”
