Chapter Twenty-Five: Father and Son
In fact, Zhao Guanjia may not have realized that Lu Haowen was very special to him. Yu Lu Hao asked that the Zhao official family made him a supreme minister and a sanctification in the flesh in the year of Ershun. During his tenure to complete the revival of the country, he sometimes inevitably had a literati mentality, and estimated that he would revise history in the future, not only could he be listed alone, but it was estimated that he would only be ranked behind Li Gang Zongze, and his fame would definitely far exceed that of the ancestors.
As far as Zhao Guan's family is concerned, when he climbed up from the well, he was only twenty-one years old, and there were few people around him who could be trusted. And then it was fate, the big waves washed the sand, who would have thought that it had been eleven years since Jianyan, and in the end, it was Lu Haowen, who was dedicated to Taoism and advocated moving the capital to Yangzhou, who had been by his side? Looking at the essence of the problem, it can only show that Lu Haowen is truly moral, willing to work hard for the change of the country and the nation, and does not agree with the heart that "ruling the world with scholars and doctors rather than with the people." ”
This made him from a "three ministers" to a figure that can never be ignored in the history of Shao and Song, and also became the existence of the Zhao official family's half-minister and half-elder, otherwise he would not be willful, and he would not run to other people's houses if he had nothing to do, as if this is the liberation of the soul. Although Lu Hao asked very helplessly, you ask all over Tokyo, how many people are willing to open their doors to welcome. You Lu Gong don't know what to do.
The monarchs and ministers here rejoiced together, but the father and son over there were speechless. At the same time, between the Genyue ruins and the Yanfu Palace, among the Jingyuan heavy villas that the Zhao Guan's family rewarded the important ministers, there is a particularly simple one, although the geographical location is superior and the area is large, but it is not a heroic style at first glance, at this time the Mid-Autumn Festival, but there is a kind of lonely cold of moonlight, which is particularly weird.
But if you see the "Imperial Mansion of Zheng Guogong Zhao" on the gatehouse, it is not surprising that the soul of gossip is burning in Tokyo.
This is exactly the house of Zhao Ding, the prime minister of the dynasty, which was built when he was named Zheng Guogong, and later named King Zheng for meritorious service, he felt that as the prime minister, he still had to avoid suspicion, so he did not let people change the plaque. Coincidentally, the former Duke of Shu and now the King of Shu also did the same. The man's name was Zhang Jun.
In the "cough cough" study, Zhao Ding was lying on a rocking chair, listening to his son reading the new issue of the Di newspaper to him, but he didn't know if it was a cool autumn outside, so he coughed twice.
Zhao Fen hurriedly put down the newspaper and served his father to drink ginger tea. That's right, father and son nature, since the old father came home and thought about it behind closed doors, he came back, looking at the white hair between the old father's sideburns, his heart was sour and regretful, but he didn't dare to let his old man see it, so he had to smile and say: "Father, it's not early, why don't you eat some moon cakes and rest early." ”
Zhao Ding shook his head and said, "No, Chen Gongfu sent me a message, the errand of this batch of jinshi has been decided, and you are the county commander in Jing'an County, Shenzhou." You have been by my side for many years, and you have also learned from it. I'm not worried about anything else. But you still have to remember to be the master of the people, even if you are called a parent by the people, you have to shoulder the responsibility, Li Xiuzhi made up for the housekeeper, and you should not break off your friendship with him. That's it, I'm really getting more and more nagging, while you're at home, read the newspaper for me for a few days. ”
Zhao Fen became more and more uncomfortable, but he heard Zhao Ding say: "But you also have to prepare, you and your daughter-in-law are newly married, pack up and go by yourself, your grandson is still young, and your mother is reluctant, so stay in Tokyo." I heard that Liang Su came to vote for a post yesterday, and I want to go to work with you. ”
"Yes." Zhao Fen gritted his teeth, understanding that he couldn't hide it from his father, and said, "But my son politely refused." ”
"Why?" Zhao Ding straightened his waist slightly, as if he was still the prime minister who dealt with thousands of military affairs.
"Liang Su, Liang Su's first teacher is the stubborn Song traitor Shi Gao, everyone in the same year knows that he came to the exam because he and his junior brother helped Ling back to Dingzhou, General Wang Sheng saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, and he made it difficult for them, so he wanted to come out to fight for fame. Shame on children to be in the company of such people. ”
I thought that Zhao Ding would criticize it, but who knew that he then asked, "Then Fan Cheng's family and your daughter-in-law's family are world friends, and he is only fourteen years old, since you are going to cross the Yellow River together, why don't you take him with you?" ”
Zhao Fen replied stubbornly: "Brother Xiao Fan Xian, I was arranged to go to the Imperial Camp Navy to report to the palace, and the official family has sent Li Xianggong (Li Guang) to say goodbye and let him get engaged to King Zhang Lu's daughter, wouldn't it be a hindrance for me to go." Besides, my son is also thirty years old, and I don't have anything to say with them. ”
Zhao Ding raised his eyebrows, boy, his psychological quality is good, so he asked the last question, "Well, a few days ago I was still in the capital, and Du Yan was promoted to Shenzhou Zhizhou in Chengdu, and it was your top boss, I heard that he also invited you to the banquet, why didn't you go?" ”
"Because my son is not angry with him." Zhao Fen suddenly straightened his neck, looked directly at his father, and said: "I know that Du Chong almost ruined the overall situation back then, and Du Yan was a righteous murderer of the Song Dynasty, and he admired him. But as a son of man who denounces his father, even if he doesn't commit suicide afterwards and apologizes, he should spend his whole life in the countryside, how can he still be like a human being........
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ding, who was full of fatigue, suddenly straightened up, and slapped him almost hard, Zhao Fen didn't react in time, and he was hit hard, his body was crooked, and the tea bowl in his hand that he had time to put down was broken, making a crisp sound.
Mrs. Zhao in the compartment didn't listen well, so she quickly knocked on the door and said, "Official, what's wrong?" But Fen'er made you angry again. ”
Zhao Ding moved his wrist and said calmly: "It's okay, madam." Fen'er is about to be appointed abroad, and I will teach him the principles of being a man and an official. ”
When he heard that his wife was far away, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said coldly to his son: "Kneel." ”
Zhao Fen really lost his temper this time, although he knelt well, his face was full of anger.
"Let me ask you, back then, Du Yan colluded with the enemy country, which almost made the land of Henan and the official family irreversible, and you also think that Du Yan was right to kill his relatives in righteousness."
Zhao Fen was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Naturally, it's right, not to mention the prince of heaven and earth, Du Yan should have been loyal to the official family first." I also heard that Du Chong's dog thieves were mad and wanted to dig the Yellow River, which was the life of tens of millions of Song people, where could he be foolish and filial? Just ......."
"Then you don't want to think about it, Du Yan's accusation, if he himself cuts himself, it will be a good story in the history books. But what will happen to his mother, brothers and sisters? ”
Zhao Fen was stunned!
As a left-behind minister of treason, the lightest punishment is also for his wife and daughter to enter the Teaching Workshop Division, and his son to join the army on Salmon Island!
I saw Zhao Ding leisurely find out the reading glasses given by Zhao Guan's family, put them on and looked at the newspaper by himself, and said calmly: "But as far as my father knows, because of Du Yan's merit, except for Du Chong's wife, he is inevitably forced to do hard labor." The rest is not to mention, it is this woman, who was later redeemed by Du Yan's intercession. If you think about Shi Gao's fate again, you are sure that Du Yan did not do it right, son, what is loyalty and filial piety, people understand much better than you. ”
"My father has been in a good career for more than ten years, but I asked others to spoil you, forget the hardships when you were a child, and go out to experience one or two as soon as possible."
