Chapter 748: The Golden Alliance
"Good!"
The two stood side by side.
looked at the people of six, seven or eight in Xuande Gate, as well as the hundreds of people in Xuande Gate.
Zhao Zhen raised his hand, and Fudge came over with a tray.
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "There is a paper, ink, pen and inkstone next to it, and here is red ink, which represents me; This is the black ink, which represents him, and whoever you support can use the corresponding ink, no need to write, just draw circles, so that you don't have to worry that I will follow the handwriting to trouble you. ”
"Do you disagree on this?"
Zhao Shoulian pursed his lips.
"If you do this, you will agree, and I will stand here with you, waiting for the result."
His Majesty is standing, how can Li and the three of them still sit still.
They all got up and stood aside and waited for the results.
Wang Gongchen, who was standing next to Gu Qingjue, was very nervous, kept rubbing his hands, and almost paced back and forth to relieve his anxiety.
Ouyang Xiu stood in the second row, looked at Wang Gongchen like this, and said, "What's there to worry about, just wait patiently." ”
"You don't have a backache when you stand and talk, Your Majesty is so willful, how can you not worry, in case you ......"
"Say you're elm, you still don't admit it."
Ouyang Xiu said: "Your Majesty has been in power for so many years, solved the Western Xia, so that Da Liao did not dare to attack, carried out political reform, military reform, and began to reduce forced labor last year, the people are living well now, who doesn't want to live a peaceful life." What the hell! ”
"You!"
"What am I, am I not right?"
Wang Gongchen was just the stupidest, so he was repeatedly scolded by Ouyang Xiu.
If you are someone else, Wang Gongchen can still say it.
But against Ouyang Xiu, he was suppressed by him this time.
even scolded him for his elm head.
When he was on the scientific expedition back then, he was the champion, and this name was given to him by His Majesty.
"Speaking of which, Emperor Taizong has really done ......"
"Eh, don't be confused, it's been seventy or eighty years since this happened, and it's impossible to investigate which is right and which is wrong."
"Yes, yes, no, no, you can't deny it because it's been a long time!"
Gu Qingjue listened to the two arguing on the side.
Whether it is from the contact with Wang Gongchen over the years, or Yixin said in his ear that this person has responded to that evaluation: honest and upright.
The truth about Emperor Taizu's seizure of the throne, as Ouyang Xiu said, is no longer important.
Taking a step back, even if Wang Jien listened to Queen Song's words and announced Zhao Defang into the palace at that time, would he be able to sit on the throne?
At that time, Zhao Defang was only a defense envoy in Guizhou, and he was not rated as a five-grade official, even the king of the county.
At that time, both the Chinese book and the Privy Council were controlled by Zhao Guangyi.
Without this ability, sitting in that position is not a blessing for himself or the people of the world.
After Emperor Taizong sat on the throne, he was afraid of being criticized, so he reactivated Zhao Pu as the prime minister.
Who is Zhao Pu.
He was a close confidant of Emperor Taizu.
It is the greatest help for Emperor Taizu to be able to smoothly add the yellow robe.
It stands to reason that once a son of heaven and a courtier, after the death of Emperor Taizu, it would be good for Zhao Pu to be able to live for a long time.
Where would I have thought that there would be a chance to be a photo again.
Gu Qingjue thinks that the biggest possibility is that when Emperor Taizu was abroad, Zhao Pu and Emperor Taizong were left in Kyoto, maybe the two had a different friendship at that time.
In short, Zhao Pu accepted the appointment of Emperor Taizong.
and presented the "Golden Alliance" to calm down the rumors at that time.
"Jinkui Alliance" roughly means that as early as the second year of Jianlong (960 AD), the Empress Dowager Yang was ill for a long time, Emperor Taizu served the decoction medicine left and right, and the Empress Dowager Yang urgently summoned Zhao Pu, in front of Zhao Pu, asked Emperor Taizu how the throne was obtained.
Emperor Taizu said that it was the protection of the ancestors, but the Empress Dowager Yang said that because Zhou Shizong let the child rule the world, if the Zhou family had elders, this position would not be Emperor Taizu's turn, so let Emperor Taizu pass the throne to Emperor Taizong after a hundred years, saying that there is a long monarch in the world, which is the blessing of the society.
His Majesty Taizu cried and agreed to Empress Dowager Yang's words that he would pass the throne to Emperor Taizong a hundred years later.
After a hundred years of Emperor Taizong, he passed the throne to his younger brother Zhao Tingmei, and then to Zhao Defang.
Empress Dowager Yang ordered Zhao Pu to write down the outspoken words of the day and hide them in Jinkui.
This is the Golden Alliance.
It's just that this Golden Alliance, whether it was said when Empress Dowager Yang was seriously ill at that time, or did he pretend to make such a thing in order to let Emperor Taizong sit on the throne justifiably, so that everyone could get by on face.
After all these years, no one knows what happened.
You don't need to write your name, you just need to draw a circle, and the efficiency is very fast, but the people standing outside the door of the election also want to participate, Zhao Zhen asked Zhao Shoulian what he meant.
Zhao Shoulian felt that there were many people, and the possibility of Zhao Zhen cheating was small, so he nodded in agreement.
So, the two of them stood motionless for nearly three hours.
Just wait for the results to come out.
After the results came out, Fudge took out the notes with red circles and the notes with black circles from the wooden box in front of the two of them, and counted them.
It took another hour for the count.
The officials didn't drink a sip of water, and wherever those ministers dared to withdraw, they all gritted their teeth and insisted, and their bodies were not good, and their faces were really like vegetables.
Nearly 2,921 people voted.
There were 2,887 people circled in red and only 34 circled in black.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Zhao Shoulian flipped over the tray with a black circle note in front of him: "Obviously, I am the orthodox royal family, why don't you support me?" ”
Ouyang Xiu sighed twice: This person is stunned!
At this time, some people shouted: "The official family is very good to us, we like the current official family, although you are of royal blood, you can launch this mutiny, that is, you don't care about the life and death of our people at all." ”
"If you want to get the throne back, how can you not shed blood and sacrifice. I'm already trying to minimize casualties. ”
At this time, Pang Ji stood up and said: "What you said about reducing casualties is the intention to arrest our hundred officials so as to threaten Your Majesty?" When you asked Xiang Shihong to go to the Pang family, the unbeatable majesty is still remembered. ”
Pang Ji spoke out, and many people began to crusade.
Pang Ji is a military general, he can still resist, and many civilian officials were really arrested, fortunately they met the Su Guards who came to support, otherwise their lives would be really auspicious.
The rebels were also on their way to arrest hundreds of officials, and they arrested many civilians who had not had time to go home.
Because hundreds of officials have nursing homes in their homes, it will be difficult to break through for a while and a half, and they need hostages, so they are arrested on the road, and if they don't have them on the road, they break into the homes of civilians to arrest people.
This scene has just ended, and they are still apprehensive.
is such a person, where do they dare to let him be the emperor, he really sits on the throne, how can he care about the life and death of their civilians.
