Chapter 68: Confrontation (1)
In the middle of summer, in Lin'an Da Nei, in the vertical arch hall, a fierce battle of words and tongues is being staged.
Entering the scorching summer, sweating all day long, sticky all over, people's anger is naturally great. If you don't pay attention, it will explode in one click.
"Minister, Liang Chengda, the imperial secretary Taizhong, has a book. Your Majesty, please be wise! ”
Liang Chengda went out to work, and the ministers in the palace were all surprised.
As soon as this immoral and ruthless black fat man opened his mouth, there must be no good thing.
"Your Majesty, the Duke of Jiguo is confusing and making waves, and the minister wants to refer to him to set the record straight!"
Sure enough, as soon as Liang Chengda spoke, the spearhead pointed directly at Zhao Hong, the most popular Jiguo Duke in Lin'an City.
Zhao Kuo on the throne was silent, nodded slightly, and Liang Chengda's recital had been presented.
The hall was silent, and all the ministers were full of interest, looking at Zhao Kuo on the throne together to see what kind of reaction this Great Song official would have.
disappointed the ministers again, and as they expected, Zhao Kuo raised his head, looked at Liang Chengda with a righteous face, and said softly.
"Liang Zhongcheng, is it an exaggeration to say that the Duke of Jiguo is coercing public opinion and disrupting the court?"
Zhao Kuo's words made the ministers prick up their ears.
Sure enough, Liang Chengda was furious with the prince Zhao Hong again.
Some ministers unconsciously became excited. Jiguo Gong Zhao Hong wrote a book and said, every speech is like a spring, if it is a counterattack, a sharp mouth, today in this hall, but there is a good show to watch.
"Your Majesty, the Duke of Jiguo used his book "Tatar Policy" to propagate it everywhere, maliciously spread rumors, chase after the wind and shadows, and coerce public opinion, causing panic among the people, unrest among the people, and turmoil in the court. The intention is just to deceive the world and steal fame and reputation. My Great Song Dynasty and the Tatars have always been on good terms, and they have agreed to cut gold together. If this had been known to the Tatars, it would have caused bad relations between the two countries. Please ask Your Majesty to severely punish the Duke of Jiguo to set the record straight! ”
Liang Cheng is righteous and righteous, his voice is loud, and he is an upright and upright minister of the country.
Wei Liaoweng, the squire of the military department, and Xu Huo, the young secretary of Dali Temple, glanced at each other, and they both snorted coldly.
Zhao Hong is famous in the capital with a "Poetry Anthology" and "Tatar Policy". Liang Chengda, a-stirring stick, actually used "Tatar Strategy" to talk about things, and his heart can be punished.
Zhao Hong remained silent. Every time he goes to court, he is mentally prepared. If the opponent doesn't toss, he won't get used to it, and his heart will not be steady.
"Jiguo Gong, why are you doing this?"
The governor of Dazongzheng and the show king Zhao Shimi had white hair, and whispered in Zhao Hong's ear.
Zhao Hong couldn't help but be stunned, and wanted to ask, but Zhao Shimi had closed his eyes, his head lowered, and he didn't say a word.
Zhao Hong looked at King Pu Zhao Bu on the side, he looked at Zhao Hong, his eyes were playful, and he just shook his head slightly.
Zhao Hong was secretly frightened. Several princes of the clan seem to have unspeakable secrets, could it be......
"Your Majesty, Zhao Hong, the Duke of Jiguo, disregarded the safety of the imperial court and misled the public with his evil words, which made the hearts of the people in the world turbulent and violated the laws of the imperial court. The official documents of Jiguo are outstanding, but they are frivolous and arrogant, and they cannot be used as important weapons of the country. It is better to remove the position of the prince and go to the academy to serve, which can be regarded as making the best use of talents, and the people and the country are fortunate! ”
Zhao Hong was thinking hard, and Cheng Jue, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, followed out of the ranks, solemn and solemn, with fluttering sleeves, and the heart of worrying about the country and the people was overflowing.
Frivolous!
Cheng Jue's words made the ministers stunned instantly.
Does Cheng Jue mean to depose the current prince of the Great Song Dynasty?
As early as when Zhao Ji of Song Huizong was not yet the emperor, Prime Minister Zhang Dian commented on him: "You can't rule the world lightly." Sure enough, Zhao Ji of Song Huizong ascended the throne, and then there was the shame of Jingkang, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished.
According to Cheng Mi's meaning, Song Huizong, like the current prince Zhao Hong, is a literary and artistic youth, and it is not suitable to go to politics, it is best to go to the cultural department, complement each other with the imperial court, and do not mislead the country and the people.
The ministers were surprised, supervising the imperial history Li Zhixiao, and followed out of the class.
"Your Majesty, please depose the prince of Jiguo, so as not to make enemies with the Tartars. Once the war breaks out, the world is restless, the people suffer, and the lives are miserable! ”
"Your Majesty, please abolish the position of the prince of Jiguo, appease people's hearts, and set the record straight!"
"Ministers attached to the agenda, please depose the prince of Jiguo!"
"Subordinate Agenda!"
The black fat man Liang Chengda, the supervising Yu Shi Tang Lin, and Li Zhixiao spoke one after another, and they were all patriotic.
Zhao Kuo couldn't help but smile, and his face was silent.
The enemy's team is very strong!
Liang Chengda, a black fat man, doesn't buy his own books, how can he slander himself?
It seems that his existence has caused great trouble to Shi Miyuan.
Could it be that it was really because of his fame that he posed a huge threat to Shi Miyuan, so that Shi Miyuan tried to force the emperor to depose him?
Zhao Hong's gaze involuntarily glanced at Zhao Kuo on the throne, and it happened that Zhao Kuo's gaze turned around. The father and son looked at each other, and the look in Zhao Kuo's eyes was playful.
This "Dao Monarch Father" won't really be intimidated by Shi Miyuan's obscenity and abolish himself, right?
Zhao Hong retracted his gaze and muttered secretly.
Cheng Mi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, seems to be a fellow practitioner of Shi Miyuan.
In history, it seems that this person was the one who cooperated with Shi Miyuan to write the edict of enthronement.
On the throne, Zhao Kuo was silent, Zhao Hong's eyes glanced at Prime Minister Shi Miyuan, the old god was there, and he didn't say a word. Several ruling ministers, Xue Ji, who has been promoted to the governor of political affairs, Xuanxuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Hu Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, were also silent and silent.
In history, Shi Miyuan's "four woods and three murderers", "four woods" are Xue Ji, Hu Yu, Nie Zishu, Zhao Rushu four people, these four people have a "wood" in their names, and they are also Shi Miyuan's sworn friends, and the people of the time called them "four woods".
It's just that now, Nie Zishu in "Simu" is still the Ruijin County Order, and has not yet entered the center, so there is only "Sanmu".
As for the "three murderers", it refers to Li Zhixiao, Liang Chengda, and Mo Ze. These three people were attached to Shi Miyuan, excluded dissidents, spared no effort, and brutalized Zhongliang, and were called the "three murderers".
"Three Woods and Three Murderers", Xue Ji and Hu Yu are the governors, Zhao Rushu is the squire of the Criminal Department, Li Zhixiao, Liang Chengda, and Mo Ze are all imperial historians. Shi Miyuan has mastered political affairs and words, and the court naturally does whatever he wants.
In addition to the "Three Woods and Three Murderers", there are also Cheng Mi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who are willing to be wings, which really makes him more and more afraid the more he thinks about it.
He inexplicably remembered a famous quote from later generations:
Let the storm of horseback riding come more violently!
There is no "stepping on the horse", just their own anger.
"Your Majesty, the Duke of Jeguo wrote a book and said that it was just to wake up the world, how could he deceive the world and steal his name and sell his reputation? Liang Cheng slandered the prince, Cheng Mi vainly said that he was abolished, and his heart could be punished. Your Majesty's Holy Judgment! ”
Wei Liaoweng, the squire of the military department, immediately stood up and openly fired cannons at Cheng Yu and others.
They want to depose the prince because of the words of the warning, are these people crazy?
"Your Majesty, what Wei Shilang said is extremely true. As the prince of my Great Song Dynasty, Jiguo Gong is not at fault, how can he be abolished lightly? The success of the iron smelting of the Jeguo Gonggong and the development of gunpowder have also been successful, how can it be said that it is not in government affairs? If you easily replace the prince, wouldn't it be too child's play? Your Majesty think twice! ”
Xu Xuan, the young secretary of Dali Temple, played angrily.
Zhao Hong is now in the limelight, which makes these Shi Miyuan's minions restless and begin to deduct the basin.
"Your Majesty, Wei Shilang and Xu Shaoqing hold the country steadily, and the ministers second. Your Majesty, please be wise! ”
"Your Majesty, the minister seconded Wei Shilang and Xu Shaoqing!"
Yin Wujing of Lin'an Mansion, Li Zongmian and others in the palace all agreed with Wei Liaoweng and Xu Xuan's advice.
"Shi Xiang, the stakes are very high, you are the chief of the court, what do you think?"
The ministers had their own opinions, and Zhao Kuo finally spoke, his eyes turned to Shi Miyuan, who was in the forefront, with a tepid attitude.
Shi Miyuan glanced at Zhao Kuo in surprise. This puppet official's family, when he goes to court on weekdays, always only brings ears, the left ear goes in, the right ear goes out, and there is no mouth and head.
What's wrong today, you have to get to the bottom of it?
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the matter of Jiguo Gong is related to the stability of the world, so I should listen to the courtiers' discussions."
Shi Miyuan's advice seemed fair, but it shocked Zhao Hong's heart.
In the court, the vast majority of them are Shi Miyuan's henchmen, and these people are complicit and don't play him to death.
Sure enough, as soon as Shi Miyuan's words fell, Xue Ji had already walked out and spoke with a bitter face.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that as a prince, the prince of Jiguo rashly published a book and publicized it everywhere, although it was a good intention, but it made people's hearts fluctuate and boil. In order to calm the panic of the people and stabilize the people's hearts, the Jeguo Gong should be severely punished, so as not to make the world restless and the people panic. ”
"Your Majesty, what Xue Xianggong said is extremely true. Jiguo Gong Zhao Hong's inappropriate remarks and improper publication of the book disturbed the Quartet, and he must be severely punished. Jiguo Gongwen is very popular, the article is the first in the sea, let him go to the academy to be an official, he can also share worries for the country, and it will be beneficial to Jiguo Gong and my Song Dynasty. ”
Hu Yu, the governor of the political affairs, echoed Xue Ji and said stubbornly.
The official document is the most popular, and the article is the first in China.
Zhao Hong's heart was shocked again.
He wrote books and said that "Tatar Strategy" and "Selected Poems of Zhao Hong" made him famous all over the world, and also became an excuse for the other party to attack him.
Participated in the governor's political affairs and the military department's Shangshu Xuanxuan, but his eyebrows were lowered and he didn't say a word.
It seems that this Shi Miyuan's sons and daughters are planning to be silent to the end.
"Your Majesty, please depose the position of the prince of Jiguo, and appease the hearts of the ministers!"
It's the black fat man in the imperial history again, Liang Chengda, and he followed the play.
"Your Majesty, attach the ministers to the table and depose the Duke of Jiguo, so as not to cause a catastrophe!"
Another superintendent, Li Zhixiao, followed Liang Chengda to speak.
The ministers spoke one after another, mostly in favor of deposing Zhao Hong, the Duke of Jiguo, and Wei Liaoweng, Xu Xuan and others were weak and obviously at a disadvantage.
Liang Chengda was even more aggressive and excited, hitting Zhao Hong's sore spot.
"Since the Duke of Jeguo is so familiar with the Tatars, and knows that the Tatars are powerful and the soldiers are indestructible, then may I ask, how should my court deal with it?"
Since the last time Zhao Hong was impeached for visiting the Shaoxing Imperial Mausoleum, he was personally attacked by Zhao Hong for "Liang family filial piety". Since then, Liang Chengda and Zhao Hong have been on the bar, pinching each other as soon as they go to court, full of fighting spirit.
"Why am I telling you? Can you understand it? What qualifications do you have, let me tell you? ”
Zhao Hong raised his eyebrows and slammed back unceremoniously
"I'm not eligible? I am a dignified Song Dynasty in the imperial history, but I can hear about the world's affairs. Jiguo Gong, you are despising my imperial history platform and the imperial court! ”
Liang Cheng's face was red, and he said angrily.
"What are you anxious about? Are you a roaring hall? The dignified Emperor of the Song Dynasty and the important ministers of the country, just this bit of upbringing? I think you're a big Song-stirring stick! ”
Zhao Hong said coldly, shocking the entire hall.
-stirring sticks!
This title can be described as hitting the nail on the head!
