Chapter 96: Three Dozen (10)

Happy Chinese New Year, book friends, all the best.

The cold winter wind blew through the open space outside the barracks, and Zhao Jiaren felt a bit like a knife cutting noodles. Let the son who walked beside him look at his son's thick military coat, scarf, and mask are all ready. He didn't mention his willingness, and called Zhao Qian to continue walking.

Zhao Qian didn't understand what his father was checking, but at this time, he didn't care about it at all. Dad likes to talk a lot a lot, and there are a lot of times when he just does nothing but says nothing. Since Dad didn't say anything, it means that he was very satisfied with the test results. That's enough at this stage. Zhao Qian saw that his father sent him out of the gate of the barracks, and hurriedly said what he was worried about, "Dad, I'm still a little worried that I will make the wrong decision." ”

"Hehe, if you engage in hindsight, where is there anything right." Zhao Jiaren chuckled.

"Still, I don't think I can get over my emotions." Zhao Qian said worriedly.

Zhao Jiaren pressed his hand on his son's shoulder, "Da Lang, from my point of view, you have a great advantage. It is to know the right and wrong to fear good and evil. With such a mind, talents will not expand infinitely and end up destroying themselves. I'm going to ask you to change that. It's just that anything too much is wrong. Snake venom, arsenic, and opioids, as long as they are used in the right amount, are all miraculous drugs. If the dosage is not right, it will make people die immediately, or even life is worse than death. My advice to you is, either do it or don't do it, don't try it. ”

Zhao Qian felt as if he understood, but he didn't seem to understand at all, so he could only say: "...... Be. ”

After finishing speaking, he followed again, "Dad, it's cold outside, you can go back first." ”

Do you think I'm in the way? Zhao Jiaren almost made this joke. But he didn't say anything, just stopped and responded, "Okay." Be careful on your way. ”

"Hmm." After Zhao Qian finished speaking, he pulled the horse and walked forward a few steps, and then turned over and got on the horse. He said, "Dad, you also take care of your health." Then he hurried his horse away. Looking at the back of his son in the distant team, Zhao Jiaren's nose suddenly became sore, and tears almost flowed down.

Zhao Jiaren also felt a little puzzled about his emotions. His son has finally grown up, but Zhao Jiaren is dead now, relying on Zhao Qian's real knowledge and insight, Zhao Jiaren has a lot of confidence in him. It should have been a happy thing. But now the cold wind is blowing, and the team that my son is in is running around in the cold. Zhao Jiaren was inexplicably worried.

The guard saw that Zhao Qian and the others had already walked away, and stepped forward and said, "Official, go back to the camp." ”

"Wait a little longer."

Hearing this order, the guard was stunned, because he saw that Zhao Guanjia's voice was not quite right, and he wiped it on his face with his hand. Could it be that the official family is crying? The guards didn't dare to come out. Although everyone doesn't think that the official family is a cold person without blood and tears, such a thing as tears is beyond imagination. Over the years, the official family has only cried when worshipping the Emperor Taishang and the Empress Dowager who passed away in Quanzhou, as well as the deceased second brother Zhao Jiali.

Zhao Jiaren didn't care what everyone thought, he touched a cigarette and lit it, looking for the reason why he was so weak. Soon, he found a very likely answer, Meng Wubo asked filial piety, and Zi said: "Parents are only worried about their illness." ”

Zhao Qian is a filial child, and his growth has made Zhao Jiaren no longer worry about Zhao Qian's ability and knowledge. At this time, Zhao Jiaren was just distressed that his son was running around in the winter of the Xiaoice River era, worried that he would fall ill.

Although he found an answer, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but feel a little funny. If his opinion is correct, the group of apprentices who recorded the words and deeds of Master Confucius are really slippery. Fathers and mothers can only care about the child's ideological realm, which shows that parents are not confused. If you want to have a filial son, you must first have an understanding father. If parents blindly only care about their own interests, they will only ask for it from their children, and no matter how good the baby is, they will have to be forced to become this kind of unfilial son in the mouth of their parents.

It is possible that these disciples and grandchildren really understand Kong Laoer's wishes, so they deliberately made their words vague and did not give an explanation. Because of the words, most parents will be angry when they see it. Because they know it's hard for them to do it.

However, Kong Lao Er himself is also in this tune. In the past, the history books were written straight, rebellion, rebellion, and murder. What to write, in order to record the facts, I am not afraid of death. When Kong Lao Er wrote "Spring and Autumn", he used the so-called Spring and Autumn penmanship to hide these words, and the entire history of Yiye forced the correct history.

Hum! After going back, I will write an article to criticize Kong Lao Er's viciousness, and I must not let those officials think that they can still do this now.

After arming his heart, Zhao Jiaren turned around and left. The guards saw that the familiar official had returned, and hurriedly followed behind Zhao Jiaren and walked towards the barracks.

At this time, it was close to New Year's Day, and the 335th year of the Great Song Dynasty, that is, the year 1295 of the Western calendar, arrived. Prime Minister Wen Cheng sat in the temporary office prepared for him by the Ministry of Officials, and several ministers were waiting for Prime Minister Wen Cheng to speak in front of Wen Tianxiang.

If you don't count the so-called prime ministers when Lin'an surrendered, there were only three prime ministers in the past forty years of the Great Song Dynasty, Jia Yidao, Zhao Jiaren, and Wen Tianxiang. Therefore, Wen Tianxiang was silent at this time, he knew that the ministers in front of him represented the hearts of almost all civil officials in the Great Song Dynasty, and he hoped that the acting prime minister Wen Tianxiang could end the situation of the army controlling the judiciary.

If it was in the era of Song Lizong, there would be no need for others to usurp it, Wen Tianxiang would have been scolded a long time ago. At the moment when the Zhao official family is in power, Wen Tianxiang has also decided to look at the mind of the Zhao official family. Of course, this does not mean that Wen Tianxiang supports the military to control the judiciary, he just hopes to discuss it privately with the Zhao official family first.

But at this time, it is not okay not to speak, Prime Minister Wen said: "You wait to go back and get busy first, I already know what you think." ”

Hearing this prevarication, the Minister of Civil Affairs almost shouted with tears in his eyes: "Prime Minister, you can't wait any longer at this time." If the official family decides, we will not have a chance. ”

"What do you mean no chance?" Wen Tianxiang replied displeasedly: "The fact that military generals can meddle in the judiciary is only the beginning of twenty years ago. At that time, the localities were all under military control, and there was no peace in various places, so naturally they could not be prevented from being in charge of justice. Your words are ridiculous. ”

Hearing this, the Minister of Civil Affairs did not back down, "Prime Minister, the current military generals just want to turn this power into a system. If this is the case, it will be a reappearance of the feudal town immediately. ”

This Tianxiang was even more unhappy, and his voice was full of dissatisfaction, "If the official family really wanted to institutionalize this, it would have been done a long time ago." I haven't done it yet, do you think the officials are confused? Speaking of this, Wen Tianxiang suddenly showed a mocking look, "And don't think it's a good thing for you to wait." Once the military generals are excluded from the judiciary, I am afraid that the next thing is to rectify the atmosphere of officialdom. I've heard that many officials thought that it was still the time of the Confederacy, and that the transmission of information in the local area was extremely slow. The imperial court had no idea what was being done locally. With the telegraph, many things spread very quickly. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the civil officials changed their faces. They are all high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and their intelligence and experience are extraordinary. It is not a simple matter to mix under the Zhao official family. Therefore, Wen Tianxiang's description of the place, these people know that it is not nonsense.

However, when things came to such a point, the Minister of Civil Affairs was upset and said loudly: "Corrupt officials and corrupt officials must of course be severely punished." It is a good thing for the officials to clean up the officialdom. ”

Hearing these insincere words, Wen Tianxiang sneered: "Hmph! Just remember what you said today. I know what you said, and when the official family comes back, I will go to see the official family. ”

Before the words fell, a secretary hurriedly came in and whispered something to Wen Tianxiang. Wen Tianxiang's face changed, and he said to the high-ranking officials: "I still have something to do, you can go back first." ”

The high-ranking officials are all human beings, and when they see this movement, they all know that Wen Tianxiang really wants to do his own thing, so he can only choose to leave. After they left, the secretary went out and brought Zhao Qian in. Wen Tianxiang looked at Zhao Qian, the director of the Kaifeng Water Conservancy Department, and said with a smile: "Prince, I have received a telegram from the official family, congratulations to the prince on being crowned the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion." ”

Any prince of the Great Song Dynasty who is crowned Kaifeng Mansion Yin is equivalent to officially canonizing the crown prince. This year is the 335th year of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhao Guan's family is 55 years old. If it is according to the virtual age, Zhao Jiaren can be regarded as 56 years old. Ordinary emperors would have lived to this age, and they would have been canonized as princes long ago.

Zhao Qian was also happy in his heart, but he didn't feel anything about being canonized now. What he expects is to be like Daddy and learn how Daddy sees the world, rather than taking everything Daddy has for himself. Especially after having a deep conversation with his father before, Zhao Qian felt that being the emperor was just shouldering the responsibility of the country and assuming his obligations to the people like his father. So he listened to Wen Tianxiang's words quietly, wanting to see what Wen Tianxiang would say next. From Wen Tianxiang's words, you can also use what you learned from your father to analyze what kind of person Wen Tianxiang is.

As a result, Zhao Qian stood quietly and listened, and after Wen Tianxiang finished saying polite words, he also waited for Zhao Qian to say something without saying a word. The two of them stared at each other and stood dryly.

While the two of them wondered why the other party didn't speak, they both felt that the other party would speak first. So just like that, you look at me, I look at you. In the end, both of them thought such a cockfight-like performance was too funny, and laughed almost at the same time.

This smile also diluted the awkward atmosphere. Wen Tianxiang is a free and easy person, and he no longer mentions the topic of Fang Cai, but asks Zhao Qian to sit down according to politeness, and he naturally sits on the main seat. Seeing that Zhao Qian naturally sat in the guest seat, Wen Tianxiang sighed: "I didn't expect the prince to be like an official. It's really gratifying. ”

Zhao Qian looked at Wen Tianxiang and felt that this prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty was really free and easy. was so praised by him, Zhao Qian also felt happy. He replied: "After decades of learning from my father, I finally feel that I can touch my father's shirt at this time, and I also feel infinitely happy." ”

Wen Tianxiang looked at Zhao Qian's calm and calm expression, it was definitely not the previous forbearance, but now after being canonized, he couldn't help but show his edge, and he was also happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "The official family is unparalleled in intelligence, where can ordinary people touch." It is already a blessing for the country that the prince can touch it. ”

Zhao Qian didn't come to brag with Wen Tianxiang, he had recovered his mood at this time, and he said: "I came to meet the prime minister this time to ask the prime minister that there must be a bottom line for officials, but I don't know if the prime minister has a clear view on the bottom line of civil officials. ”

"There are regulations now...... Wen Tianxiang was happy in his heart, and couldn't help but respond casually. But after saying that, looking at Zhao Qian's expression again, he felt that he was a little casual.

Zhao Qian is just sitting now, and Wen Tianxiang feels that he has the taste of Zhao Jiaren. All the vanity, all kinds of self-confusion thoughts disappeared in Zhao Qian's body. At least it can no longer dominate Zhao Qian's words and deeds. At this time, Zhao Qian came to do things, and the purpose of doing things was no longer driven by emotions.

After being a minister for so many years and seeing all kinds of chaos in the Great Song Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang is very confident in his judgment. Back then, he watched Zhao Jiaren solve the complicated government affairs one by one one without urgency, and let the devastated Great Song Dynasty be reborn. With the strength and prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty today, Wen Tianxiang was very worried that future generations would not be able to continue to carry forward such a situation. Seeing that Zhao Qian finally had the appearance of a father, Wen Tianxiang was really happy in his heart. At the same time, there is a hint of indescribable jealousy.

The intelligence of the Zhao Guanjia has already impressed Wen Tianxiang, but he didn't expect the adopted son of the Zhao Guanjia to be so capable. Although I can't remember the last time I saw Zhao Qian, judging from the information collected by the officials, Zhao Qian didn't have a sense of excellence before. That is, the level above the middle person.

Zhao Qian saw that Wen Tianxiang looked a little absent-minded, so he reminded: "Prime Minister Wen, you are still a secretary of the ministry, I know that officials have various regulations, but some of those regulations are not too general." ”

"How?" Wen Tianxiang decided to listen to Zhao Qian's opinion.

"For example, officials are not allowed to abuse their powers, is there a lack of a rigorous retaliation. Or is retaliation also classified as abuse of power? Zhao Qian put forward his own opinion. Wang Quanle can't let it go, but it's not a reason to make Zhao Qian unhappy because of him. Zhao Qian slowly clarified his thoughts along the way.

If Wang Quanle's attack on a child is wrong, then it should be a mistake to do so, and all officials who attack a child should be punished. As Dad said, Zhao Qian himself actually knew the good and evil he believed in for a long time. It's just that Zhao Qian's judgment of good and evil is dominated by his emotions. The desire to punish evil and promote good is also Zhao Qian's own desire to satisfy the emotions brought by his body.

As a person who holds the power of the Great Song Dynasty, good and evil should be defined by the system, and the system should be gradually improved. In contrast, personal feelings and impulses need to be put aside.

"But I don't know what the prince knows?" Prime Minister Wen Tianxiang asked in the words of officialdom.
