Li Xiuzhi's Laozi is called Li Gang. This is the first impression of many people on him, even if he himself was the first and first in the imperial examination in the eleventh year of Jianyan, entered the dynasty for more than 30 years, and participated in the governor's affairs, but until the Shaoxing period, some people who came from the south to the north would still introduce him to his juniors.

It's not that Li Xiuzhi is bad, but because Li Gang is too special. The first minister of the Jianyan Dynasty, who once advocated the anti-Jin stability of the dynasty when the world collapsed, was recognized by the lord of Zhongxing as a model for a while, and the essence of a century-old monk..... Of course, because he didn't know that the soldiers had buried Zhao and Song Dumiao, he almost died on the Song-Liao border when he was old, and Li Xiuzhi was taken hostage..... It can be said that Li Gang is destined to shine in the history books, and as his son, even if Li Xiuzhi is good enough, he will inevitably be overshadowed.

Just like today's Shaoxing Son of Heaven, he is also an excellent monarch when he is taken out alone, but the people of the Quartet will secretly compare him with his Laozi, the emperor Zhao Jiu, who single-handedly saved the world and turned the Great Song Dynasty into a great Song Dynasty, and then secretly came to a conclusion that was not easy to declare.

But Li Xiuzhi was lucky, because what he did in Shaoxing in the second year allowed him to get rid of his father's shadow and become a famous person praised by a generation of scholars.

This matter is also simple, when the provincial prime minister Hu Yin died, the successors were Zhao Boyao and Li Xiuzhi, and it is really hard to say that the qualifications of a clan and a famous minister are about the same, but Li Xiuzhi himself sentenced himself out.

Not only was he out, but he was almost driven to Annan Road by the angry officials, and in the end, it was the privy envoy Yu Yunwen and Yang Wanli in the imperial history who desperately blocked him, and the former Hu Quan, the middle of the imperial history, even threatened that if Li Xiuzhi had an accident, he would go to Tokyo and commit suicide in front of the emperor.

Only then did he force this Zhao Changtianzi, who was not as strong as his father, to take a step back, and reappointed Li Xiuzhi as a bachelor of Hanlin Academy and sent him to Hangzhou for the elderly.

So how could Li Xiuzhi, who has always been tactful, offend the Son of Heaven to this extent, and how could the courtiers who have always had a personality offend Tianwei to unite and save him like this?

The reason is nothing more than two words: storage location. It is said that since Zhao Ding, the provincial prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty has generally served as the prince and young master.

But because of the special Jianyan Dynasty

The "secret prince" system, until the prince is twelve years old, is taught by a bachelor together, and even the princes can study together.

But this secret is also an open secret within a certain range, at least the important ministers of the secret cabinet are tacit, so the selected prince will follow the prime minister from the age of thirteen to begin to familiarize himself with the imperial education, and then contact some government affairs when he becomes an adult, but it is just a little worse than the official prince.

Zhao Chang was cultivated in this way, and to be fair, his father was much more interested in him than Emperor Song Huangling was to Emperor Song Yin.

But this person just can't be too used to it, Zhao Chang himself is one of the few biggest beneficiaries of his father's respect for etiquette, but when it came to choosing his successor, he actually had some thoughts that he shouldn't have - he was dissatisfied with his sister-in-law Zhao Zhi was good at martial arts, and because of his weak relationship with Queen Han, he hoped that Li Xiuzhi would be able to serve as the teacher of his eldest son Tang Wang after taking over as prime minister.

Do you suggest it could be more obvious? Li Xiuzhi only felt that his eyes were dark at that moment, and Zhao Chang also knew that it was a bit unauthentic to do so, so he didn't mention it to Liang Su, Lu You or Fan Chengda at all, just hoping that the relatively sleek Li Xiuzhi could give him a little hope.

But Li Xiuzhi, who has been through a lifetime, is rare and hard, and replied without a crown,

"If Your Majesty wants to be a prince, you can first remove the minister from the position of the capital province, and if the prime minister is the commander of the vassal king, you must not." Zhao Chang also tried to persuade him,

"In this dynasty system, if there are no kings, you can't take Zaizhi as your master?" Li Xiuyi saw that this person was still confused here, and simply took out his head iron that Lao Tzu looked up to the emperor, and said directly: "That is the chaotic life of the Emperor of the Desolate Spirit, the Hidden Emperor may not have lost his religion because of the loss of religion, the Emperor Taishang swept away the disadvantages of the former Song Dynasty, is it for His Majesty to take such absurd actions as an example?" "No matter how good-natured a person is, he is taken with two

The ancestor of "Northern Hunting" was about to get angry, so Zhao Chang said angrily: "Presumptuous, Li Xiuzhi, are you from some kind of background?" "Li Xiuzhi's biological mother is an official, and it is not a secret that she was posthumously ordered by the Emperor Taishang, so Li Xiuzhi's answer is also righteous,

"Therefore, the family business of the Shao Wu Li family is inherited by the eldest brother of the minister, and the emperor is crowned when the minister is still the secretary, and the mother is the first, and the biological mother is second." It's true that I'm not from a formal background, but I also follow the etiquette.

This quarrel is definitely not an opponent, and the reasoning is also on the other side. Zhao Chang is not really faint after all, just drive people out.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiuzhi, who has not offended people for more than 30 years, took the most fierce resistance. He went out to publicize the matter, not only a few Zaizhi colleagues, but even retired old comrades did not pull down, and the ministers repaid it when they heard this!

We must resolutely resist the emperor's intention to subvert the emperor's idea, and when Zhao Chang finds out, he only has time not to let the emperor know, but Yanjing is already known to everyone.

He was quite merciful, he gritted his teeth at Li Xiuzhi, and really wanted to throw it on Annan Road. And then isn't this a crowd against it?

Even Li Xiuzhi's competitor Zhao Boyao said,

"Li Da, the important minister of the country, the son of the king of Fujian, if he is degraded in one fell swoop because of the admonition, the world will inevitably shake, is Your Majesty ready to face the emperor's questioning?" Different people say the same things with different weights.

Zhao Boyao was not only the first champion in the Jianyan period, but also from the clan. In a hurry, he really dared to go to Tokyo to find the Emperor Taishang, and unite the face-saving clan to admonish.

And Zhao Chang's own family knows his own affairs, and all his legitimacy comes from his wayward old father. And the old father's feelings for King Han Qin are very unusual, if he knows that he intends to change the prince, this matter will be yellow.

Of course, you don't want to think about it, your father is old and not deaf, you do this all day long, this matter will have to reach his ears sooner or later.

Don't forget that in addition to Wenchen and the clan, the Great Song Dynasty also has the Xungui Group, and although Han Shizhong went, he was also one of the representatives.

Sure enough, only a year later, Zhao Chang was announced by his father to Bianliang, the central capital, by an edict, and it happened that it was destined to go down in history

"Gyeongbokgung Gong played right", so that some later generations who didn't know about Song Xuanzong's martial arts would only think that he was a cold person who intended to mess around and be stopped by his father, ignoring the fact that he was actually very good at other things.

In fact, the contrast between him and Lao Tzu is too tragic. You said that Zhao Jiu, as the son of the king of the fallen country, was put on the throne when he was in danger, and he actually rejuvenated the country step by step, indomitable, and he could destroy the enemy country with his hands, and he could make the people rich with his hands.

Occasionally writing a "Qingyu Case" makes a large number of ministers doubt life, and in the end, when you are old, you still miss the old ministers like this, which really doesn't give other emperors a way to live.

also put his son under a lot of pressure. But turning back to the topic of Li Xiuzhi, when he was governed by his father, he also rested Yi Chu's heart - after all, Zhao Zhi is also his son, and there are contradictions.

But he also understood that this son was strong, and in order to prevent the rift between father and son from further expanding, he ordered Li Xiuzhi to be re-promoted to the vice minister of the capital province and concurrently served as the crown prince Shaobao.

Zhao Zhi still has very clear grievances, knowing that Li Xiuzhi lost the position of prime minister because he supported him, and he was grateful in his heart, when he returned to Beijing, he specially brought his friend Yang Wanli and the prince's teacher Chen Liang to greet him

"Mr. Lee". But Li Xiuzhi's strength seems to be like this, and after returning to the center again.

He is still a good man, and this character is naturally incompatible with Zhao Zhi, who is fierce in his work, and cannot be further reused.

However, Li Xiuzhi is not discouraged, he usually goes to the court to do things, and occasionally goes fishing and drinking tea when he is free, and is leisurely.

In the twelfth year of Shaoxing, Li Xiuzhi, the vice minister of the province, asked for a request for office due to old age and illness. Jinshang and the prince kept one or two, and found that this old comrade was not acting, but really had the heart to retreat.

The father and son are still a little bit of Zhao Jiu's kindness, and the treatment of the county king makes him retire. But one point, Li Xiuzhi's special request, hoping to retire in Hangzhou instead of returning to his hometown Fujian.

For incumbent ministers, of course, it is also possible. However, after hearing about it, Zhao Jiu, the emperor who was far away in Zhongdu, smiled and said to Zhang Xiaoxiang: "In Xiuzhi's life, big things are not confused, and small things are not confused, and they should start and finish well." Although Zhang Xiaoxiang has a good level of education, he knows that his political ability is not enough to evaluate a prime minister, so he can only laugh and laugh.

Before he could do so, he presented a small poem made by Yang Wanli for his friend to the Emperor,

"After all, in the middle of June, the scenery of West Lake is not the same as the four seasons. The lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red. After reading it, Zhao Jiu had no words, just stunned for a long time.
