Well, I can't hide it anymore.

I was hospitalized, and the high fever did not go away, almost a week.

Fortunately, there was no 'suffering', but it was also a crime.

Jidi

Ji Huang's ancestors were favored by the ancient monarch, and he is already the seventh generation, and he has been honored as a secretary and doctor in the court for generations.

Relying on his father's protection, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty became the prince and washed the horse, and was feared because of his solemnity.

After the death of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, the crown prince Liu Che succeeded to the throne and appointed him as the official of the confessor.

The Minyue and Ouyue people in Dongyue attacked and attacked, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Ji Di to inspect.

Before he arrived in Dongyue, he turned back when he arrived in Wu County, and reported that "the people of Dongyue attacked each other, because the local folk customs were so aggressive, and it was not worth bothering the envoys of the Son of Heaven to ask." ”

A fire broke out in Hanoi County, which burned more than 1,000 households, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Ji Di to inspect it.

He came back and reported: "There is no need to worry about the fire in the ordinary people's homes, and because of the dense housing, the fire spreads." When I passed through Henan County, I saw that the local poor people were suffering from floods and droughts, and that there were more than 10,000 families affected by the disaster, and some of them were cannibalized by father and son. Now I ask for the restitution of the symbols and bear the responsibility for the false proclamation. ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought that Ji Di was virtuous and virtuous, so he was exempted from guilt and transferred to the county magistrate of Xingyang.

Ji Di thought that the county order was humiliating, so he resigned and returned to his hometown due to illness.

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard the news, he summoned Ji Huang back to the court to serve as a doctor.

Due to his repeated outspoken admonitions to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he still had to stay in the court for a long time, and was exiled as the Taishou of Donghai County.

Ji Huang advocates Taoist doctrine, governs the government and handles civil affairs, likes to be quiet and has few things, and entrusts everything to the powerful county officials and scribes of his choice.

He manages the affairs of the county, but he only supervises his subordinates to act according to the general principles, and does not demand small details.

He was frail and sickly, and often lay in his bedroom to rest and not go out.

For more than a year, Donghai County was very clear and peaceful, and people praised him.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty learned about it, he summoned Ji Huang back to Beijing to serve as the lord and lieutenant, and compared the treatment of Jiuqing. He strives to rule by inaction for the sake of government, and promotes its great importance without abiding by the letter of the law.

Ji Di is very arrogant in getting along with people, does not pay attention to etiquette, confronts people in person, and does not tolerate the fault of others.

He who is of the same heart as himself, he is close and friendly; Those who do not get along with themselves are impatient to meet each other, and the scholars are therefore unwilling to cling to him.

But Ji Di is studious, and he is good at fighting righteousness, and he pays great attention to ambition and discipline.

He is usually at home, and his conduct is beautiful and pure; When he entered the court, he liked to speak outright and advise, repeatedly offended the face of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and often admired Fu Bai and Yuan An.

He was friendly with Guan Fu, Zheng at that time, and Zongzheng and Liu Qi. They were also prevented from staying in their official positions for long because of repeated direct advice.

Just when Ji Huang was the lord of the capital and ranked in Jiuqing, the younger brother of the queen mother, Wu'an Hou Tianwei, became the prime minister.

When the high-ranking officials of 2,000 stone came to see him, they all bowed down, but Tian Wei refused to return the salute.

And when Ji Di asked to see Tian Wei, he never bowed down, and often gave up his hands to him.

At this time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was recruiting scholars of literature and Confucian scholars who admired Confucianism, and said how I want to do it, and Ji Di replied: "Your Majesty has a lot of desires in his heart, and he only implements benevolence and righteousness on the surface, how can he really imitate the achievements of Tang Yao and Yu Shun!" ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was silent, angry in his heart, and his face changed and he quit the court, and the ministers were all frightened and worried.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty retreated, he said to his close ministers: "It's too much, Ji Di is too stupid!" ”

Some of the ministers blamed Ji Di, and Ji Di said: "The Son of Heaven has set up ministers and hundreds of officials to assist them, is it to make them blindly subservient and flattering, and put the monarch in a dilemma of violating the right path?" What's more, I am already in the position of Jiuqing, even if I cherish my life, but if it damages the major affairs of the court, what can I do! ”

Ji Di was sick, and he had been sick for three months, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty granted him many vacations to recuperate, but his illness never healed.

The last time he was very ill, Zhuang Zhu asked for leave for him, and Emperor Wu of Han asked, "How is this person Ji Di?" ”

Zhuang Zhu said: "Let Ji Huang be an official deacon, there is nothing extraordinary. However, he can assist the young monarch and stick to the established cause, he will not come if he is lured by profit, he will not go if he is driven by threat, even if someone claims to be as brave as Meng Ben and Xia Yu, he cannot shake his ambition. ”

Emperor Wu of Han said, "Yes. In ancient times, there were loyal ministers who were so-called Anbang to protect the country, and they were very similar to Jidian. ”

The general Wei Qing entered the palace, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once sat on the side of the bed to meet him.

Prime Minister Gongsun Hong usually asks to see him, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sometimes doesn't even wear a hat.

As for Ji Di's visit, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would not have received him without wearing a good hat.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once sat in the majestic military tent, when Ji Di came to start the official business, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not wear a hat, and when he saw him, he hurriedly hid in the tent and sent a close attendant to approve his recital.

Ji Huang was honored by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and encountered this level.

As soon as Zhang Tang became a court lieutenant by changing the formulation of criminal laws and regulations, Ji Di repeatedly questioned and accused Zhang Tang in front of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, saying: "As a Zhengqing, you can't carry forward the merits of the previous emperors and suppress the evil desires of the people in the world. Ensuring the prosperity of the country and the people, and making the prisons empty of criminals, you have achieved nothing in either of these aspects. On the contrary, you do your best to do the wrong things, and wantonly destroy the laws and regulations in order to achieve your own career, especially if you dare to change the rules and regulations set by Emperor Gaozu in a disorderly manner? If you do that, you will cut off your offspring. ”

Ji Di often argued with Zhang Tang, and when Zhang Tang argued, he always liked to deliberately delve into the provisions and demand details.

Ji Di spoke upright and serious, high-spirited, and refused to give in, he angrily scolded Zhang Tang and said: "Everyone in the world says that the official of the sword and pen must not be allowed to occupy the position of the minister, and this is true." If you have to act according to Zhang Tang's law, you will be so frightened that people in the world will stand with their feet together and dare not take a step, and their eyes will not dare to face it! ”

At this time, the Han Dynasty was conquering the Xiongnu and appeasing ethnic minorities in various places.

Ji Di strives to have few things to do in the country, and often takes the opportunity of giving advice to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to suggest that he should be close to Hu and not raise troops to fight.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was obsessed with Confucianism and respected Gongsun Hong, but he did not care about it.

When domestic incidents arose, lower-level officials and lawless people all tried tricks to escape the legal net, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to separate laws and strict laws and disciplines, and Zhang Tang and others continued to play the important cases they tried, so as to win the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

And Ji Di often slandered Confucianism, and criticized Gongsun Hong and his ilk for being treacherous inside and clever outside, so as to gain favor from the Lord; The scribes and penmen specialize in harshly slashing the provisions of the law, slandering them with clever words, framing others for guilt, preventing the truth from being revealed, and using victory as a capital to invite merit.

So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty relied more and more on Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang, and Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang hated Ji Di deeply, and even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not like him and wanted to kill him for some reason.

Gongsun Hong became the prime minister and suggested to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "There are many high-ranking officials and nobles and royal family relatives living in the right internal history management circle, which is difficult to manage. ”

Ji Huang has been the right internal history for several years, and the political affairs in the office are in good order, and he has never been slack.

The general Wei Qing has become more and more noble, and his sister Wei Zifu has become the queen, but Ji Di still acts as an equal with him.

Someone persuaded Ji Di: "From the Son of Heaven, I want the ministers to live under the general, and the general is now respected and respected by the emperor, and his status is even more noble. ”

Ji Huang replied, "Because the great general has a guest who bows his hand, does it make him disrespectful?" ”

When Wei Qing heard him say this, he thought that Ji Di was virtuous and virtuous, and asked him many times about difficult things about the country and the court, and regarded him better than the people he had befriended.

Liu An, the king of Huainan, conspired and rebelled, fearing Ji Di, and said: "Ji Di loves to speak out, and he is willing to sacrifice his life for justice by sticking to his will, and it is difficult to tempt him with improper things." As for lobbying Prime Minister Gongsun Hong, it is as easy as removing the covering cloth or shaking off the leaves that are about to fall. ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had already won many victories against the Xiongnu, and if Ji Di advocated making peace with Hu instead of raising troops to conscript, he would not listen to it.

When Ji Di enjoyed the treatment of Jiuqing at the beginning, Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang were just ordinary officials.

When Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang became more and more noble, and Ji Di's official position was equal, Ji Di blamed and slandered them.

Soon, Gongsun Hong was promoted to prime minister and named Pingjin Marquis; Zhang Tangguan to the Imperial Doctor; In the past, Ji Di's subordinates were all at the same level as Ji Di, and some of them were reused, and their status even surpassed him.

Ji Di's heart is narrow and irritable, it is impossible not to complain a little, when he met Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty's use of the ministers is like a pile of firewood, and the later ones are piled on top. ”

Emperor Wu of Han was silent. After a while, Ji Di retreated, and Emperor Wu of Han said: "A person really can't be uneducated, looking at Ji Di's words, his stupidity is getting more and more serious." ”

Not long after, the Hun Hun evil king led his troops to surrender to Han, and the imperial court requisitioned 20,000 vehicles to pick them up.

The government had no money, so they borrowed horses from the people.

Some people hid the horses, but the horses could not be gathered, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious and wanted to kill the Chang'an County Commander.

Ji Di said: "The Chang'an County Order is not guilty, as long as you kill me, the people will be willing to sacrifice horses." Moreover, the Xiongnu generals betrayed their monarch to surrender to the Han Dynasty, and the imperial court could slowly let the counties along the way prepare chariots and horses to transport them in order, so that the whole country would be harassed and uneasy, and our people would be tired of serving those Xiongnu surrendered generals! ”

Emperor Wu of Han was silent.

And when the evil king of Hun led his troops to arrive, more than 500 merchants were sentenced to death for trading with the Huns.

Ji Huang asked for the opportunity to be received, and met Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the Gaomen Hall of Weiyang Palace, he said: "The Xiongnu attacked the fortress we set up on the main road, cut off the friendly relations with relatives, and our country sent troops to recruit them, and the number of people killed and wounded in the battle was innumerable, and it cost tens of billions of huge sums of money.

I was stupid to think that when His Majesty captured the Huns, he would reward them all as slaves and maids to the families who died in the army, and give them the captured property, so as to thank the people of the world for their hard work and satisfy the wishes of the people.

Even if this cannot be done now, and the evil king of Hun led tens of thousands of troops to surrender, he should not have poured all the money and goods of the official treasury to reward them, and recruited honest and responsible people to serve them, and praised them like darlings.

Where did the ignorant people know that if the Huns were allowed to buy goods in Chang'an City, they would be convicted by the law enforcement officers who were struggling with the letter of the law as illegally smuggling property out of the customs?

Even if Your Majesty could not seize the materials of the Xiongnu to comfort the people of the world, and still kill more than 500 ignorant civilians with harsh decrees, this is the so-called practice of 'protecting the leaves and damaging the branches', and I privately think that Your Majesty's move is not advisable. ”

Emperor Wu of Han was silent and disagreed, and then said: "I haven't heard Ji Di's words for a long time, and today he is talking nonsense again. ”

A few months later, Ji Di was convicted of committing a minor law, and he was only dismissed from office when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty granted an amnesty. So he retreated to the countryside.

After a few years, when the state changed to mint five-baht coins, many people minted coins privately, especially in Chudi.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed that Huaiyang County was the main transportation route to Chu, so he recruited Ji Huang and appointed him as the Taishou of Huaiyang County.

Ji Di bowed to the ground and thanked the holy decree, refused to accept the seal, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty repeatedly issued edicts to force him, and he received the order.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to summon Ji Di, who cried and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "I thought that after my death, the bones would be discarded in the ravine, and I would never see Your Majesty again, and I never thought that Your Majesty would accept and appoint me again." I often have dog diseases and horse diseases, and my physical strength is not up to the duty of the Taishou. I hope that Zhonglang will enter and exit the forbidden gate of the palace to correct your mistakes and remedy your shortcomings. That's what I want. ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Don't you look down on the position of Huaiyang County Taishou? I'll call you back later. It's just that because of the tense relationship between the local government and the people in Huaiyang, I have no choice but to use your prestige to ask you to lie at home and govern it. ”

After bidding farewell to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Ji Di went to visit Li Xi, the commander of the Great Order, and said, "I have been abandoned in other counties and cannot participate in the deliberations of the imperial court. However, Zhang Tang, the imperial historian, was clever enough to thwart the criticism of others, treacherous enough to cover up his own mistakes, and he devoted himself to clever flattery, strong arguments and critical words, and refused to speak for the people of the world in an upright manner, but devoted himself to catering to the thoughts of the Lord.

What His Majesty does not want, he will slander as he pleases; What His Majesty wanted, he followed and praised. He likes to make trouble out of nothing, and manipulate the provisions of the law, and in the court, he is deeply treacherous to meet the will of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he strengthens his power by holding officials who harm the society outside the court.

You are in the ninth position, if you don't speak to Your Majesty as soon as possible, you and he will be killed. ”

Li Xi was afraid of Zhang Tang and never dared to admonish Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Ji Di's governance of county affairs, as in the past, Huaiyang County's politics became clear.

Later, Zhang Tang was really ruined.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty learned of what Ji Di had said to Li Xi, he convicted Li Xi and ordered Ji Huang to enjoy the treatment of the princes and state ministers and still be in charge of Huaiyang County. Seven years later, he died.
