Xiao Ming and his entourage, from the air to take a straight line to fly north, in order to avoid the interference of the air flow hot air balloon rose to a height of several thousand meters, under the propulsion of the small gas-powered spiral pulp, the speed is not slow, Xin Qiji is the first time to take this kind of transport, at the beginning was scared to tremble, but then adapted to it, the young man's heart is still competitive and fun-loving. 【Baidu Search Member Login】

Watching the clouds and mist drift by, the earth is like a chessboard, vertical and horizontal, people and animals are like ants, which makes Xin Qiji's heart happy! couldn't help but shout happily and wanted to express his chest, Xiao Ming knew that this person was a well-known hero, so he smiled and took out a fine wine to drink with him, and the two talked for a long time on the balloon.

Xin Qiji's family is very knowledgeable, and he has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, but his temperament is very liberal, and he is not very willing to accept those so-called rules, but this person is very good at studying and summarizing, and there are many famous teachers who have instructed him to study, so although Xin Qiji is young, he is very familiar with the entire school of learning in the Great Song Dynasty.

Throughout the academic history of the Song Dynasty, he is very important in China's national studies, the Song Dynasty learned the study of righteousness and reason to innovate Sinology, it is not like the Han Confucian rule of the scriptures from the subtleties such as chapters and sentences, but from the gist of the scriptures, the general righteousness, the righteousness of the place, that is, from the essence, the overall focus, to explore the original meaning of the classics, to achieve the purpose of the scriptures. Moreover, Song Xue did not treat the scriptures and discuss the scriptures on the classics, and did not take the Confucian classics as a dogma, but it was combined with the reforms of Fan Zhongyan and Wang Anshi from the beginning, and its ideals of application to the world were no longer empty words, but emphasized the improvement of social life.

Xin Qijian can start from the Song studies in the early Song Dynasty, and the evolution of Song studies can be divided into three stages. Song Renzong Qingli is the formation stage before and after, and its representative figures are "Mr. Song Chusan" Hu Jin, Sun Fu, Shi Jie, Li Ji and Ouyang Xiu, with Fan Zhongyan as the core. In the later years of Renzong, from the Jiayou period to the early period of Shenzong, the Jinggong school represented by Wang Anshi, the Wengong school represented by Sima Guang, the Shu school represented by Su Shi, and the Luo and Guanli schools represented by Ercheng and Zhang Zai were formed, each of which has its own characteristics.

After the Southern Crossing of the Great Song Dynasty, due to the rapid development of the social economy and the Northern Expedition to the Dajin Empire, it was known that after Xiao Ming opened up his territory and expanded his territory, social thought underwent earth-shaking changes, and it was indeed very difficult for the school of Confucianism to still be imprisoned in people's minds as it had been.

And Luo and Guan Lixue are academic schools that inherit and Confucianism are relatively complete, and there are more people who influence this aspect, and people are also very stubborn, and there is a certain proportion of people in this area, just like Zhang Zai and Zhu Xi! Song Studies is a wide range of academic topics, Xiao Ming can't communicate with Xin Qiji normally, but he has Xin Qiji's knowledge of science and technology and culture in later generations, which Xin Qiji can't catch up with.

For example, Xiao Ming painted a science and technology tree for him, the backward deduction method of logical thinking, the great Song Dynasty can achieve today's scientific and technological achievements, it is nothing more than a little bit of accumulation, if there is no discovery of saltpeter, it is impossible to improve the essential power of gunpowder, if there is no improvement in the technology of steel-making, it is impossible to form the foundation of the entire Great Song Dynasty industry.

The two of them talked about it, time passed relatively quickly, and the thing that Xin Qiji admired the most was the relationship between Xiao Ming and Gu Xiaoliu and Guo Shouxin, these two people were obviously Xiao Ming's personal guards, but Xiao Ming treated them as family, and the two of them were not polite to Xiao Ming, everything was so natural, obviously not pretending, which showed that Xiao Ming was like this to the people below from beginning to end.

The air flight is very fast, in addition to the night can not fly and need to camp on the ground, the whole day is in a hurry, three days later, the balloon arrived in Nanjing, Jinling Mansion Zhongshan is a balloon docking station in Richanglong, where the carriage and horses have already been prepared, Xiao Ming immediately took the carriage and horse into the city as soon as the balloon was launched.

Now that the emperor is going to abdicate, Xiao Ming didn't dare to delay this matter, he rushed to Wu Yong's mansion in advance, wanting to know the situation of the whole thing, Wu Yong was quite surprised to see Xiao Ming, he thought that Xiao Ming was still overseas, even if he rushed back, then how could it take ten days and half a month to come back by boat!

Xiao Ming explained to him how he came back, Wu Yong suddenly realized that Xiao Ming was in such a hurry to come back, naturally he was concerned about the emperor Zhao Hao, so he went straight to the topic, Wu Yong introduced him to the current situation, Zhao Hao has completely fallen out with the Queen Mother and the ministers of the clan because of his marriage!

At the beginning, Xiao Ming warned the Empress Dowager Wen to let her do a good job of remedial measures and countermeasures after the incident in advance, obviously the Empress Dowager did not listen to Xiao Ming's words, and now the form is very subtle, Zhao Hao used the abdication of the improper emperor to threaten the Empress Dowager and the ministers, just to ask for an explanation for her marriage.

If Zhao Hao is not the emperor, then there will be a crisis in the clan immediately, to choose another emperor to come out will inevitably involve the power competition between Taizong and Taizu, plus Zhao Hao is the emperor who was set by Gaozong to abdicate and take over, which has been supported by many old ministers from the Central Plains, if Zhao Hao once abdicates, these three forces will immediately start a life-and-death contest, which is undoubtedly a huge damage to the current situation of stability and unity in the Great Song Dynasty.

Just in case, he had already asked Xin Qiji to take the warrant of the Taishi in advance to go to Wu Luan, the president of the Jingshi Public Security Supervision and Law Enforcement Brigade, so that his men and horses could be on guard at any time and could receive weapons, because in addition to the thousands of royal guards in the palace, Xiao Ming did not let the garrison at all.

Therefore, the "armed police" in Wu Lan's hands is a vital force! Because the mobilization of the army not only requires the military order of the Cabinet and the Privy Council, but also needs to check the tiger charm, and the transfer of the supervision and law enforcement brigade Xiao Ming can directly issue a warrant, in the eyes of the people, after all, these law enforcement teams that were originally restructured from the patrol soldiers and horses only have rattan cards and water and fire sticks in their hands, which should not be considered an armed force.

With this force in his hands, Xiao Ming is not afraid of emergencies, although there are some other forces in the military at present, at least half of the personnel still obey Xiao Ming's orders, so after he learned some key situations in Wu Yong, he didn't even go home, and went directly into the palace to see the Empress Dowager Wen!

The Empress Dowager Wen has been washing her face with tears every day for the past few days, and suddenly saw Xiao Ming coming as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and cried to Xiao Ming about Zhao Hao's desperate determination, regardless of the Queen Mother's bitter pleading, she did not hesitate to go against the entire Great Song Dynasty for the sake of a barbarian woman, and completely abandoned the ancestral patriarchal law to be the ...... of the disloyal and unfilial person!

Xiao Ming persuaded and asked about the development of the situation, of course the Empress Dowager Wen did not want other people in the Zhao clan to be the emperor's seat, the ancient mother was expensive by virtue of her son, although Zhao Hao was not his own son, but after all, he was his adoptive mother, and he could only be in the position of the queen mother by virtue of this, if Zhao Hao was not the emperor, he would be nothing!

Xiao Ming comforted the Queen Mother, saying that he would persuade Zhao Hao to change his mind, and then Xiao Ming went to see Zhao Hao again non-stop, Zhao Hao was also very excited after seeing Xiao Ming, and poured bitter water on Xiao Ming, he told Xiao Ming, and he didn't know what was going on, and the matter between him and Dao Meiyu was leaked out by Kangjing tabloid! And it's all over the city!

For this reason, the queen mother led a kind of old minister to give Zhao Hao huge pressure, not only let him come forward to refute the rumors, but also to cut off the barbarian woman from now on, and never have any contact with each other again! Zhao Hao was finally forced to lose his temper, and he shouted that he was going to marry a barbarian woman in this life, even if he was no longer the emperor!

"Master! I can't wait, I haven't seen Meiyu for more than half a year! What does it mean to be an emperor if you can't be with your beloved? Zhao Hao shouted at Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming said: "Do you know the consequences? ”

"What consequences?" Zhao Hao asked in amazement.

Xiao Ming sat down and said: "As soon as you announce your abdication, there will immediately be people from the Zhao clan who will come out to compete for the emperor's throne, and in addition, the queen mother will completely rely on you, as well as those old ministers...... Under this series of reactions, the entire Great Song Dynasty will inevitably be torn apart and may fall into war! ”

Zhao Hao gasped, he sat on the chair gloomily, as if thinking about this harsh question! Soon he stood up and said loudly: "My Great Song Dynasty has gone through the Liaojin War and the shame of Jingkang!" Kangjing's new policy and even the prosperous era, the life of the people is constantly improving, people's thinking is not like before, everyone should have the right to pursue happiness, including me, the emperor, the emperor should be an ordinary person first, because of the power and the emperor, but that is the shadow of the ancestors, not the ability of the individual! If ...... as a man! ”

Xiao Ming said: "As a man, if he protects and treats his beloved woman, then what kind of man is it, let alone an emperor!" ”

Zhao Hao was even more stunned when he said this, but he quickly understood, rushed up and grabbed Xiao Ming's hand and said, "Taishi!" Do you support me? Thank you so much! ”

Xiao Ming said: "Everything is up to me, Meiyu was arranged by me in advance to go to Ryukyu to play is to beware of someone who will hurt her, now I will ask your master to escort her to Beijing, you don't have to do anything now, everything is waiting for my arrangement!" ”

Zhao Hao nodded solemnly, and the next Xiao Ming's busy heel spanking almost didn't stop for a moment, he kept meeting with all kinds of people, talking with all kinds of people, and arranged for the Tiger Guards stationed in Hangzhou to secretly rush to the capital, and the battleships of the Zhoushan base also arrived at the dock in Nanjing Xiaguan from the mouth of the Yangtze River!

Two days later, Ding Jianpeng came to the capital with Dao Meiyu, and three days later, Xiao Ming held several cabinet meetings, and then suddenly informed all the civil and military ministers in the dynasty that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, Xiaozong Zhao Hao, would hold a court meeting with all the ministers in the Zhengde Hall at noon the next day, and hoped that you would not be late.

At noon the next day, all the ministers, princes and clan nobles were all in place, and the emperor Zhao Hao sat on the dragon chair, and then he asked the eunuch of the Yellow Gate next to him to read out an edict, which had two things, the first was that the Great Song Dynasty set the name of the country: the Great Song Empire of China! This is easy to understand, but the second one, the Chinese Song Empire wants to start implementing a constitutional monarchy!

Then the following is a detailed explanation of the constitutional monarchy, the emperor exists as the head of state, but not as the moral head of the government, the government agency that governs the country elects the head of government through elections, and after being appointed by the emperor himself, he can exercise the power to manage the country, and the head of government serves for a term of five years, and cannot be re-elected after five years!

For example, the emperor had no judicial power, but judicial immunity, and the emperor, as the commander-in-chief of the imperial armed forces, did not have the right to mobilize the army, which had to be decided by the cabinet of the government and ordered by the Privy Council......

The explanations are very complete and detailed, so detailed that everyone understands what is going on, to put it bluntly, the emperor completely handed over the power in his hands to the government he did, and then the emperor is free, basically do whatever he wants!

At this time, the entire hall suddenly seemed to be boiling! Some people scolded, some argued loudly, some cried loudly, and more watched coldly, silently, and the whole hall was in chaos!

The scene in front of him made Zhao Hao stunned and at a loss, and he had to look at Xiao Ming, but he found that Xiao Ming was smiling, looking at the performances of these people in the court with great interest......!
