Chapter 45 The Conditions of the Whole World
readx; "I take back my words, every penny of money spent on Lan Lan is worth it. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info: "Ge Qiuyan, who hurried back from the farm, saw Lu Qingqing, and the first thing he said was this.
Lu Qingqing was sitting in front of the mirror, looking at the subtle wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and sighed: "That's how women wait for men to get old." ”
"Oh, sister, did you listen to me?"
Lu Qingqing reluctantly put down the small brush in his hand and said: "I heard, Hou Tanzhi is unlucky, the little tiger of the prince has begun to eat people, and his mouth is full of oil from the first bite, and eating people may become a habit in the future." ”
Ge Qiuyan hurriedly said: "I saw the miserable Hou family at the ferry outside the city today, Hou Zhitan was fixed on the cart, and he didn't even have a little cover on his body, so he was dragged to the ferry by his family, and shouted "wronged!" ”
In the past, the old lady of the Hou family always said that I was a fox when she saw me, but now she is holding a crutch with a snot half a foot long, and when she takes a step and howls, she can't hear what she said clearly, and she looks miserable.
The concubine also heard that all the concubines of the Hou family ran away, and when the men in the family went to the hall to receive the order, they ran away with the soft and soft, and the horsemen and male servants of the Hou family ran with them. Oops, what a filthy death. ”
Lu Qingqing looked at Ge Qiuyan viciously and said, "I always feel that if our family has such a day, you will also run away with the softness." ”
Ge Qiuyan sneered and said: "The concubine body is a good concubine of the grade, and the husband even wrote the name of the concubine into the family tree, this is called life and time, and death has land!" This is my home, where do I go? Besides, I still have children. ”
Lu Qingqing sighed and said, "I hope you run away then." At least a few children are taken care of by you, and they will not end up without food, the official family meal is very boring, and it makes people feel terrified that they have a bad life, when will this kind of day be the end. ”
Lu Qingqing said heavily. Ge Qiuyan was also in the mood to look at other people's jokes, and looked at the red sun outside the window and said: "The husband said that once he finishes the war, he will take us to the sea to find an island with the finest sand and the most beautiful scenery, and we can take a bath in the sea with a smooth strip." The husband also said that there is a fruit called coconut in the south, which is the size of a head, and as long as a small opening is inserted into a reed pipe, it can suck out sweet juice, which is the most thirst-quenching thing.
It's interesting to think about such a day. I just don't know when I'll be able to live like this. ”
Lu Qingqing said bitterly: "My husband and I never say these things when we are together, even if we talk about it in bed, it is also a matter of family, and we always deal with account books, all of which are hard gold, silver and copper coins, or people with armor, it seems that my husband really loves you the most."
I married into the Yun family, and I couldn't get any benefits except for hardship. ”
The two sisters were gossiping, and the maid reported that Lao Liao asked to see him. Lao Liao, who was lame with little effort, walked into the back hall, and saw that Lu Qingqing and Ge Qiuyan were there, and Shi Li said, "Mrs. Qiyu." Niu Qianqiu of Qinzhou Commercial Bank asked to see. ”
Lu Qingqing frowned and said, "There are only female dependents at home, so it's not suitable for seeing outsiders, right?" ”
Lao Liao said with a smile: "Niu Qianqiu is asking to see the eldest son!" ”
Ge Qiuyan said strangely: "The husband and gentleman are far away in Datong Town, how can he see it?" ”
Lao Liao saw Lu Qingqing and looked at himself in confusion, and hurriedly explained: "This is the title of our family, in fact, since the eldest prince has fallen, he should be honored as the master." It's you who don't want to call the eldest prince old, so give up this time.
Niu Qianqiu asked to see our young master Ting! ”
Ge Qiuyan was even more strange. opened his mouth and said, "Ting'er is only six years old this year, how can I meet guests?" ”
Lu Qingqing reacted. Gently knocked his forehead and said: "People just want a reason to meet, housekeeper, you can take Ting'er to meet the guests, in short, there will be no big deal." ”
Lao Liao said with a smile: "What Madam said is very true, Niu Qianqiu came to the house to thank him because he bought all the dried tofu, the old slave is not easy to refuse, as for him to see Young Master Ting, it is already his creation." ”
Lu Qingqing smiled bitterly: "Another one who sees the wind and makes the rudder." ”
Lao Liao said with a smile: "The Hou family is unlucky, I don't know if it was the one who killed a thousand knives and said that this was the end of offending our family, after Niu Qianqiu heard about this, he thought that our family had sent a marquis to Lingnan to eat lychees for his hundreds of thousands of catties of dried tofu, and he was very frightened, so he asked to see Young Master Ting regardless of etiquette, this person is a person who knows how to repay his kindness." ”
Lu Qingqing smiled: "In this case, just tell Ting'er to follow the etiquette I taught him before, our family still can't look down on the profit he makes from selling dried tofu." ”
After Lao Liao left, Lu Qingqing's face fell again, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Who taught the prince this method, he wants to kill pigs to collect money, why do you use our family?" ”
Ge Qiuyan said with a smile: "Regardless of him, there is no man in our family now, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not our family's business, we live our lives behind closed doors, but while others are looking down on our family now, do you want to transport the gold to Dengzhou first?" ”
Lu Qingqing said: "This is also a method, the Hou family has fallen, now no one is staring at our family, take the path of Xiaolin to transport the gold and silver, the Cao boat is now along the Jishui to Shuibo Liangshan, as long as the gold and silver get there, we have a thousand ways to transport it to Dengzhou."
You're going to go to Hua Niang tomorrow and ask her if she can make it? ”
Ge Qiuyan nodded solemnly, and got up with Lu Qingqing and went to the front hall to eavesdrop on how the eldest young master of Yunting entertained guests for the first time.
Zhao Zhen half leaned on the pillow and listened to his son tell how to remove the Hou Zhitan family from Tokyo City, he listened very carefully, more than once asked his son to speak clearly, the vague places had to be scrutinized again and again, Pang Ji sat beside the prince and closed his eyes to recuperate, today, the emperor needs this old minister to solve his son's doubts, some profound things Zou Tong has not yet understood.
Zou Tong took out the four words of killing a hundred from the dictionary, and after a while, he turned out four words, Pang Ji saw Zou Tong's confused face, coughed and explained to the prince: "Kill a hundred people from the "Book of Han. The Biography of Yin Weng.
It is said that during the Western Han Dynasty, there was a Taishou Tian Yannian in Hedong, and he found that Yin Wenggui, a market official, was a rare talent in Pingyang, the hometown of Huo Guang, so he asked the emperor to appoint him as the Taishou of the East China Sea. The East China Sea is a place where bandits are rampant, and Yin Wenggui decides to make an example of him and execute the powerful Xu Zhongsun, so the East China Sea becomes stable.
As for the overreach, it is too late to say the Analects. Advanced", during the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius's student Zigong asked Confucius which of his classmates, Zhang and Zixia, was more virtuous. Confucius said that Zizhang often exceeded the requirements of the Zhou rites, and Zixia often failed to meet the requirements of the Zhou rites.
Zigong asked again if it would be better for Zizhang to surpass, and Confucius replied that the effect of surpassing and not achieving it was the same.
Since His Majesty has linked these two allusions together, he is probably worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's killing will be too severe, so that it will have the opposite effect.
Hou Zhitan's corpse has been on the throne for more than ten years, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very happy to get rid of it in one fell swoop, and at the same time, he also issued an obvious proposition to other nobles on the corpse, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot tolerate the incompetent and mediocre officials on the corpse. ”
When Pang Ji said this, he received the emperor's affirmation from Zou Tong and continued: "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just an official except for Hou Zhitan, and abandons him as a commoner and does not take back his family property, this will definitely make other mediocre officials only feel afraid and not have the heart to resist.
Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has descended a thunderous rage, not only to seize the title, but also to seize the wealth, as soon as the day comes, His Majesty is worried that those mediocre officials will be in a panic all day long, and finally in order to keep the family wealth, they will fight back, which is not a good ending for His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
Pang Ji's words made Zhao Xu sweat profusely, Zhao Zhen looked at his son dotingly, and then looked at Zou Tong again.
Zou Tong hurriedly turned out a few more words, either don't do it, or do it, the trick of imperial power lies in majesty.
Pang Ji opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty is talking about the old things in the Han Gaozu period, and Peng Yue, the king of Liang, was deposed as a concubine by Han Gaozu and exiled to Shu.
On the way, he met the queen Lu Pheasant, Peng Yue cried that he was not guilty, and Lu Pheasant promised to intercede for him and bring him back to Xianyang.
She said to Liu Bang: "If you let Peng Yue go, it is equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain." Liu Bang then put him to death, killed him, chopped it into meat sauce and distributed it to other princes and kings.
His Majesty means that the imperial power is supreme, and whatever you do is right, but you must do things without any trouble.
His Royal Highness deposed Hou Tanzhi and recovered his wealth, so even his life should be taken, the nobles of the Great Song Dynasty are angry, a person who is full of anger towards His Highness, and he can't let him leave easily, this is what His Majesty wants to say to you! ”
After Pang Ji finished speaking, he closed his eyes in pain, and the Great Song Dynasty really began to kill the ministers, starting with Hou Tanzhi, and the rule of not killing scholars and doctors that had lasted for nearly a hundred years would be gone.
The sweat on Zhao Xu's head trickled down, and letting an eleven-year-old boy decide the life and death of a hundred and ten people, even if he was the crown prince, it was a difficult choice at this time.
Zhao Zhen looked at his son with interest, and saw that his son had not made a decision for a long time, and he was a little disappointed, just when he was about to turn his eyes to Zou Tong and plan to give this order in person, he heard his son grit his teeth and said: "Father, it's not that the child doesn't dare to kill Hou Tan's family, but because he feels that there is no need for it at all."
The child has some experience in reading his father's daily life over the years, and the most impressive thing for the child is the kindness of the father!
It is because of the kindness of my father that I have the prosperity of the country today, and because of the kindness of my father, countless arrogant soldiers and fierce generals will be willing to serve, and the people of the world will love their father from the bottom of their hearts.
With these loves, even if Hou Tanzhi is unwilling, he can only swallow this bitter fruit.
The child didn't intend to take Hou Tanzhi's life, that is, he didn't want to tell the world that the child was a mean monarch. I just want to tell the people of the world that the Great Song Dynasty will not tolerate mediocre officials from today onwards.
If you want to be an official, you can show your true skills, and the lonely king will share the world with you! If you are an official but don't have the talent to match your official position, then don't blame the Lone King's subordinates for being ruthless! (To be continued)
