Chapter 227: Shi Xian's Monopoly 5
Shi Xian forced his dissatisfaction with the Feng family in his heart, he has always had a principle when he does bad things, he must plan and then act, xt/
In the fourth year of Jianzhao (35 years ago), a war report was sent to the imperial court, and the court was suddenly happy. According to the battle report, Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang have been in battle with Shan Zhizhi, and Shan Yu will be sent to Chang'an in the near future.
This matter is undoubtedly a strong shot in the arm for the Han Dynasty, which is still frequent, and the Son of Heaven is ill and unhealthy, especially a sentence in Chen Tang's song, "Those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away", which makes people suddenly full of pride, and they can't wait to go to the battlefield to kill them immediately.
There was a voice of praise in the court, and Liu Xiang (formerly known as Liu Gengsheng) was even more enthusiastic, and immediately wrote a book to praise it. Liu Xiang's article is beautifully written.
Liu Zheng was extremely happy, and it is no wonder that since he ascended the throne, it is extremely rare for him to raise his eyebrows and raise his head, and his brows are about to wrinkle into a twist. Now that there are miraculous merits and even more strange writings, it is natural that you have to have a good time.
As a result, one after another, amnesty was granted to the world, banquets were held, and the edicts of the meritorious people were spread all over the world, and the momentum of the whole country was boosted.
Du Qin, the son of the late Marquis Du Yannian of Jianping, saw a good opportunity to make friends with the Feng family and benefit his career, so he took the opportunity to write a letter to ask for the seal of the late general Feng Fengshi.
Feng Fengshi has been dead for several years, and he is famous all over the world for breaking Shache, and Shache is still an old thing in the previous dynasty.
Feng Fengshi's daughter Feng Zhaoyi is now being favored, and the eldest son, Feng Yewang, is very popular in the court, and many officials have recommended him as the imperial historian to replace the predecessor who died of illness, and the Feng family can be said to be in full swing.
Feng Fengshi had nothing to do with the battle of the Zhizhi Branch, and the person had been dead for many years. Now, Du Qin has turned it out, hoping to make up a knighthood for General Feng, and a discerning person knows at a glance that Du Qin's move is to tie up the Feng family.
If the emperor can posthumously confer the title on Feng Fengshi, then King Feng Ye's confidence will be more sufficient, his voice will be higher, and he will be one step closer to the throne of the imperial doctor. So this is a trick to repair the plank road openly and secretly cross the Chen Cang.
Liu Zheng made it difficult when he saw Du Qin's performance, and refused to seal it, after all, it was his old father-in-law, although he was a dead man, but many living people were staring at it. It's sealed, he Liu Zheng is not the one who opened the knighthood shop, and the credit for breaking Shache is not worth mentioning compared to cutting Zhizhi.
Liu Zheng is not a fool, he knows that this is the following officials who have changed their methods to recommend Feng Yewang to succeed him as the imperial doctor. If it is blocked, it does not mean that the matter is acquiesced.
Shi Xian, who was waiting next to him, saw Liu Zheng in trouble, and he was overjoyed, remembering Feng Jun's ignorance back then, the anger in his heart did not come out.
He rolled his eyes and said to Liu Zheng in a matter-of-fact manner: "Your Majesty, don't worry, General Feng's posthumous proposal can be put on hold for the time being, but the position of Imperial Doctor can never be given to King Feng Ye." ”
"Why?" A hint of confusion flashed in Liu Zheng's eyes.
"King Feng Ye has both talent and virtue, he is an excellent candidate for the imperial historian, however, Feng Yewang is Feng Zhaoyi's own brother, Your Majesty think about it, Feng Yewang is the imperial historian, doesn't it make the world think that Your Majesty is partial and a full-time relative." Shi Xian said as he observed Liu Zheng's face.
He knew very well in his heart that his words were actually untenable, and Emperor Xiaowu had often appointed relatives as senior cadres before. The key to employing people is to look at people, not relationships. The so-called virtuous do not avoid relatives.
If Liu Zheng can understand this truth, Shi Xian's words can be released like a fart.
Liu Zheng felt that Shi Xian's words were very reasonable, so he denied the idea of promoting Feng Yewang, and shelved Feng Fengshi's posthumous proposal.
Just a few words wiped out other people's ascent paths, this Shi Xian is indeed extremely terrifying.
The reason why Shi Xian has stood tall for many years, in addition to his wit, is also very related to the timing of his choice to make a move, if he wanted to engage the Feng family, he could have done it a long time ago, he had to wait until now, it was because of his cautious style.
Timing and acting cautiously is the secret of his ability to stand tall as a eunuch for so many years.
In his record book, such as heavyweights Xiao Wangzhi and Zhou Kan, one was killed by him, one was killed by him, and others such as Jia Xianzhi (Jia Yi's descendant), Chen Xian (Chen Wannianzi), Jingfang, Liu Xiang, Feng Qian, etc., one by one, the young talents who offended him were either killed or injured, which shows the horror of this person.
What's even more terrifying is that this person is scheming and cautious, and countless people have investigated him and appalled him in the past few years, but they have not been able to find out the real evidence that he has done evil.
So there was a very strange phenomenon, except for Liu Zheng, everyone in the court knew that Shi Xian was doing evil, but they couldn't figure out what evil he had done. said that you Shi Xian is authoritarian, but every time this kid does something bad, he will go to the emperor, saying that he killed Xiao Wangzhi and Zhou Kan, but after careful investigation, Xiao Wangzhi committed suicide, Zhou Kan died of depression, and Shi Xian just acted on orders. Some people linked the natural disasters during the Yuan Emperor period to Shi Xian, but this statement is untenable, the key is that Liu Zheng doesn't believe it, and you can't do anything about him.
Shi Xian has lived well over the years, and he wants the wind to be windy and rainy.
If Liu Zheng lives a few more years, I'm afraid no one will be able to suppress his limelight. In fact, Shi Xian is also an understanding person, he knows that the current limelight is all from Liu Zheng's trust, and one day Liu Zheng doesn't trust him, he probably won't even be a fart.
Therefore, Shi Xian has been thinking about how to eliminate hidden dangers.
It wasn't long before he had a brilliant idea.
He suggested to Liu Zheng, "The palace is levied, please order Your Majesty to open the palace gate if it is too early to enter at night." ”
Liu Zheng nodded in agreement without thinking about it.
Shi Xian was secretly happy, he was going to arrange a performance, in order to win Liu Zheng's selfless trust.
According to the rules, the palace gate guards opened the palace gate after closing the door, and Liu Zheng's edict was required. Shi Xian asked for the first time, and with this will, he often sent people out to run errands, and people deliberately waited until the palace gate was closed before returning, and then he used the edict to open the palace gate.
In this way, the matter of Shi Xian's night order to open the palace gate spread.
Soon after, some unknown officials were fooled, thinking that they had seized Shi Xian's handle, so they played and appalled Shi Xian, accusing Shi Xian of dictatorship and opening the palace door.
After Liu Zheng saw Shi Xian's performance, he thought it was very interesting, and showed it to Shi Xian with a smile, wanting to tease Shi Xian.
Shi Xian wanted this effect, because the opening of the palace door was consulted by Liu Zheng, and now there are officials who are dissatisfied with him to impeach him, which is a good time for him to win Liu Zheng's greater trust.
Shi Xian pretended to be aggrieved and said: "Your Majesty favors Weichen, everyone is jealous and conspires to murder, fortunately, Your Majesty Shengming, if this is the case, it is better for Weichen to go to the harem to sweep the floor, so as not to attract hatred, and Weichen will die without regrets." ”
When Shi Xian talked about the sore spot, he knelt on the ground aggrievedly and shed tears.
Liu Zheng softened his heart for a while, this old slave has served him for many years, and he is often impeached and he knows it, but he treats himself wholeheartedly, and Liu Zheng also knows.
Liu Zheng threw away the song, put away the joking mood, helped Shi Xian up, comforted him with kind words, and rewarded him more.
Shi Xian's face was full of tears, but his heart was happy, from this moment on, he knew that as long as Liu Zheng reigned for one day, he would have a day of glory and wealth.
After this play, Liu Zheng no longer watched those performances of Shi Xian.
The so-called prosperity and decline, with Shi Xian's popularity, the decline he faced also quietly came. And all this is because of the crown prince Liu Che.
