Chapter 8: Song Jing

Di Renjie didn't believe it, and Shen Sanwen didn't look at it anymore, he wasn't a selfless person. can only wait for Song Jing to come to Beijing to see what kind of character he is.

Song Jing worked day and night, in order to develop, he also fought hard, and when he arrived in Luoyang, he fell seriously ill, and he failed to take office for half a month. Too much desire backfires.

Fortunately, there will be no changes after the appointment letter is issued, and Song Jing is sick while looking forward to making a difference in Luoyang. During her illness, the princess was also visited, and some precious supplements were given to this country man. Today, when he recovered from a serious illness, he visited in person, and Song Jing was very pleased.

I have heard others say that this Song Jing looks mediocre, but at first sight, he is mediocre.

However, the etiquette has not been left behind, probably because it is good to read, so it is a little poor.

Shen San asked, "I don't know Lord Song, can it be better?" ”

Song Jing was flattered and saluted with a smile, "With Lord Lao Shen worried, Xia Guan's health has improved a lot." I don't know what Lord Shen came to order. ”

Reasoning Shen Sanwen's official position is indeed quite high, but most people will call Shen Yuma, Song Jing may have gone through complex psychological activities, and then out of respect considerations, this title can also make people understand that he has a heart, after all, he is different from people like Lai Junchen who live by observing words and feelings.

Shen Sanwen just came to knock him, "I'm just here to visit Lord Song and congratulate Lord Song on his move." ”

Song Jing: "My lord has a heart, and Song is grateful." ”

Shen San asked, "Did Lord Song come to Beijing alone?" Is there anyone else to take care of at home? ”

Song Jing: "There is still a mother at home, Song has not yet married a wife, and when Song settles down in Luoyang, he will pick up his mother to reunite." ”

Shen San asked: "Don't wait, I have already bought a house for Lord Song in the east of the city, if you don't dislike it, you can go after you recover from your illness, and I will immediately send someone to pick up your mother." ”

Song Jing: "Don't dare to have Master Lao." ”

Shen San asked, "If you remember... If you can do a good job in this long history of Luoyang, you can. The princess recommended you as an official, but she took a fancy to your talent and learning, so don't make people look down on the princess. ”、

Song Jing knew what he hadn't finished, you have to remember that you are here today because the princess recommended you.

Shen San asked here to remind him not to forget who he was, but looking at the person in front of him who was quite honest, he said it too bluntly, and he was suddenly embarrassed.

So he intends to give an example.

Shen San asked: "Brother Song, what do you think of the orthodoxy of the world?" ”

The question is about the opinion on the rule of Emperor Wu, such as today's Confucian scholars, the most is also to criticize Emperor Wu's throne for not coming in the right way, but to usurp the Tang Dynasty and stand on his own.

Song Jing: "Eat the king's fortune, bear the king's worries." Your Majesty can sit on the throne, that is, it is orthodox as it is today. ”

Shen San asked: "If one day, someone clamored for the restoration of Li Tang's orthodoxy, what does Brother Song think?" There are only two people here, there are no outsiders, Brother Song can tell you frankly. ”

He once discussed with Yao Chong some history of usurpation, and then introduced it to today's Wu Zhou, Yao Chong's answer was that Emperor Wu was just the master of today, and he would still return to Li Tang's hands in the future, and the old master would not dare to forget, and Li Tang's orthodoxy would not dare not to maintain.

It's just for the sake of Princess Taiping who is also surnamed Li, otherwise Yao Chong, the fox, I'm afraid he won't say so much.

Song Jing: "Shang Tang destroyed the summer, King Wu fell, and the world was replaced, but it was the will of the people." Be kind to all the people, and you can naturally sit firmly in the country for ten thousand years. The world has never had the surname Li, or the surname Wu. Confucian scriptures teach the way of kings and ministers, not what is a king and what is a minister. Song is just seeking fame with his body, and he has no intention of judging the right and wrong. Song will always remember the great kindness of Princess Taiping, Her Majesty is the mother of the princess, and she should serve faithfully to repay the kindness of her recommendation. ”

Shen San asked, "What if the princess and His Majesty agree with each other?" What about agreeing with the emperor's heir? ”

Song Jing: "When the justice of the world comes first, we must not lose the grace of today." ”

Shen Sanwen was a little disappointed, Song Jing meant that if it was in line with the justice of the world, then the princess's order was the criterion that Song Jing implemented. If it is contrary to the justice of the world, then he will stay out of it.

But I can't ask anymore.

It's hard to be neutral.

Shen San asked: "Shen should respect Lord Song's choice, if Lord Song remembers today's events, he must not embarrass the princess in the future, if there is a disaster, he must inform him first, is it okay?" ”

Song Jing: "This is Song Jing's duty, and I will never dare to violate it." ”

Shen San asked to say goodbye at the moment, "Lord Song doesn't need to thank the princess, if it is not an important matter, there is no need to go to the princess's mansion, keeping a distance is the way to protect yourself." Today, seeing that Lord Song has recovered, I wish Lord Song good luck in his official life, and Shen said goodbye. ”

The purpose of his visit has been achieved, just one less enemy, as for whether he can be a friend, he can only observe slowly.

After Shen Sanwen left, Song Jing thought carefully about his words, Princess Taiping seemed to be a very assertive and courageous person, and she was willing to recommend herself to an important position before she had ever met, and she really did it. The princess publicized this matter to the whole world, and she could naturally get a benefit, but she also said that she should not be too close, and she could also be called thoughtful. At the moment, I have some regrets, and I don't know which friend recommended myself to the princess, so I should be grateful.

Emperor Wu was actually a little annoyed by this matter, and the matter of Princess Taiping must have been promoted by the princess herself, which was contrary to Emperor Wu's original intention. The children are too sharp, as the emperor, they naturally have to consider the thoughts behind them, and they have to guess a few malicious intentions. Since going to Luoyang, Wu Lun, Wu Sansi, and Wu Chenghei have each drawn factions together, fighting openly and secretly, and the court has been uneasy, but I didn't expect the most reassuring daughter to also get involved at this time. Emperor Wu secretly made up his mind and decided to support Shangguan Wan'er, who had won his heart, to participate in politics and split power in decision-making. This girl is well-behaved, and she has been in front of her for a long time, and she doesn't dare to betray it, so she can participate in it, but she can rest assured and make decisions that are beneficial to her. Emperor Wu also hopes to use this to teach his four sons and nephews a lesson, the power is given to you, you only have it, and it is by no means something that can be forced at will.

Fortunately, the princess recommended the innocent Song Jing, otherwise Emperor Wu didn't know how much to think.

Song Jing's new official took office, because he was born in a poor family, the official was remote, he had no foundation in the capital, and he was not familiar with government affairs, which was quite difficult. Fortunately, he always greets people with a smile, even if some colleagues despise him, he doesn't take it to heart, and he just can't tell the difference. In addition, his back to the tree, no one dares to embarrass him, so he can not only handle his government affairs in an orderly manner, but also actively help his colleagues to deal with things.

The characters who can leave a name in history really have the corresponding wisdom and skill, Shen Sanwen wanted to ask him about office politics, but unfortunately the princess had already told him, so he could only resist his impulse. The princess knew that participating in the power struggle at this time would bring serious consequences, but after listening to Shen Sanwen's assertion, Yao Chong and Song Jing would become a figure on the same level as Fang Mou Duduan, and she had to take a risk. The ones who can really play a role in the struggle of the imperial court are always a few core figures, who can not only understand the operation of political affairs, but also arrange personnel and unite people's hearts.
