Chapter 132: Liquidation of Zhao Tingzhi
"Edict of Return!"
When the Empress Dowager Gao's edict on returning to power spread throughout the three divisions, the civil and military officials were suddenly shocked, and no one thought that Fan Zheng would persuade the Empress Dowager Gao.
The civil and military officials verified it in person, and couldn't help but glance at each other, this was indeed the Empress Dowager Gao's handwritten edict, and the conservatives who followed the Empress Dowager Gao suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, and immediately knew that the general trend had gone.
"The Empress Dowager has long intended to return the government to the official family, but she is worried that the official family will not be able to grasp the major affairs of the country when she is young, so she deliberately set a series of tests, and the official family really did not disappoint him, and only by such means can the Great Song Dynasty be revitalized." Fan Zheng said with a serious nonsense.
The faces of the other important ministers twitched, when they went to persuade the Empress Dowager Gao, the Empress Dowager Gao did not have this attitude.
"The Empress Dowager has good intentions, and the official family is wise and martial, which is really the blessing of the Great Song Dynasty." A group of ministers cooperated with the sudden enlightenment, and the court was in harmony.
"The imperial grandmother is dedicated to the country, hard work, and nurturing me, although she is still in power, I can not treat her badly, I specially ordered her to move to Qingshou Palace to enjoy her old age, and ordered the Tai Hospital and the Chinese Medicine Hospital to jointly send famous doctors to the imperial grandmother, and dedicated to the imperial grandmother's diagnosis and treatment." Zhao Xu said.
"The doctor obeys!" Fan Zheng said solemnly.
Zhao Xu nodded and said: "I once remembered that Lord Gao once wrote that the maternal bloodline was equivalent to the paternal bloodline, and the Gao family was also my relatives. ”
Zhao Xu ordered again to reward the Gao family and chase the Gao family, but it seems to be grand in name, but in fact it is all a false name, and even Gao Gongji and others were promoted to the second level, but they were also promoted and secretly descended, and they were no longer in power.
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty bowed slightly, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, after all, the Empress Dowager Gao was kind to them, if the Empress Dowager Gao had just returned to power, it would obviously be difficult for them to accept the liquidation of the Gao family, and now the situation is already happy.
"The Empress Dowager is very old and loves her son, so she allowed Huainan Jiedu to make Zhao Hao return to Beijing once on the birthday of the imperial grandmother to fulfill her filial piety for the imperial grandmother."
………………
Zhao Xu's series of rewards and actions made hundreds of officials in the Manchu Dynasty secretly praise, even Liu Zhi and Zhao Tingzhi couldn't find fault.
"The official family is benevolent and filial!"
Baiguan said with a touched face.
Seeing this, Fan Zheng couldn't help but sigh, in addition to being able to rank in the court, the ministers who can rank in the court must not only be talented, but also have acting skills, yesterday the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty accused Zhao Xu of being unfilial, and now Zhao Xu is in power, and the Manchu Dynasty praises the benevolence and filial piety of the officials.
"Qi Qi official family, Zhao Tingzhi in the imperial history connived at his son's murder, secretly coerced and lured the boatman to commit perjury, and his virtue is not worthy!"
"Weichen impeached Liu Zhi, a scholar of the Guanwen Palace........................
Yushi Yang was afraid of the wind and steered, figured out Zhao Xu's holy will, opened his firepower, and impeached the stubborn old school who followed the Empress Dowager Gao.
"Accurate!"
Zhao Xu waved his hand. He can open up to the Gao family, but he no longer shows mercy to these followers of the Empress Dowager Gao, he has obviously forced the palace, and these people even intend to let the Empress Dowager Gao continue to listen to the government, and now that he is in power, he naturally wants to liquidate him.
"Liu Zhi, a scholar of the Guanwen Palace, was demoted to Guangluqing and knew Huangzhou."
Liu Zhi was shocked in his heart and sighed, Guang Luqing and Zhi Huangzhou could be regarded as reserving a trace of face for him.
"In the imperial history, Cheng Xing did not abide by the law and discipline, remembered his hard work, and degraded the deputy envoy of the Xinzhou regiment."
And Lu Dafang was not so lucky, he was directly demoted to the end, Xinzhou is the land of Lingnan, and Cai was indeed exiled here at the beginning.
Zhao Ting's heart trembled, and he hurriedly looked at Lu Dafang for help, hoping that Lu Dafang would save her again.
Lu Dafang ignored Zhao Tingzhi's distress gaze, if he hadn't acted at the opportunity, I am afraid he would also be in liquidation.
Fortunately, he had the foresight, first drove Zhao Hao, the king of Yong, out of Kaifeng for the official family, and then took the initiative to express his support for Zhao Xu's pro-government, not only standing, but also taking the opportunity to go further.
Looking at the figure of Fan Chunren at the front, Lu Dafang signaled slightly, and Yushi Yang Wei attacked again to impeach Fan Chunren for inaction during his administration.
Fan Chunren sighed in his heart, and took the initiative to come out and say: "The old minister is ashamed to be the first assistant, he failed to change the situation and revitalize the Great Song Dynasty, and he is willing to resign!" ”
"Fan Chunren has the shadow of Fan Wenzheng, but that's it!" Lu Dafang sneered in his heart.
However, when he swept over Fan Zheng, his face suddenly froze, although Fan Chunren was conservative and dull, but there were successors to the Fan family, Fan Zheng single-handedly promoted the pro-government of the official family, and in the future, he would definitely be comparable to Fan Zhongyan and Wang Anshi, becoming the right and left hand of the official family.
Zhao Xu's heart turned, and he did not directly agree, but said directly: "I have just been in power, and I have successively dismissed the scholars of the Imperial History Zhongcheng and the Guanwen Palace, and Fan Xianggong will resign again, how do you let the people of the world think of me." ”
"The old minister doesn't dare!" Fan Chunren gave up his hand and no longer mentioned the matter of resignation.
Lu Dafang's heart sank, he understood that Zhao Xu really cherished his reputation, and I am afraid there was a more important reason, that is, the backbone of the New Party had not yet arrived in Beijing.
Sure enough, Wang Di, the new waiter of the East Palace, stepped forward and said: "Qiqi official, Cai Xianggong is really wronged, the Chegaiting poem case is framed and slandered, Cai Xianggong is dedicated to the country, and there is no intention of ridiculing the court." ”
Zhao Xu heard the words and said: "My Great Song Dynasty literary style is prosperous, and there are countless people who write poems and lyrics, and it is a big mistake to convict with poetry. ”
"The official is wise!"
Su Shi also has a relative, once upon a time he was also attacked because of his poetry, if he is convicted according to Cai Qu's poetry, I am afraid that he will not lose if he is relegated to the ends of the earth.
"Thank you, official!" Wang Di bowed again.
Doctor Zhengyi is a civil and official name, which is equivalent to the position of the squire of the Sixth Ministry, but its significance is extraordinary, indicating that Zhao Xu is ready to rehabilitate the New Party.
"New Party!"
Above the court, the faces of the old party have changed, and the Empress Dowager Gao has carried out a large-scale liquidation of the new party when she is in power, and now that Zhao Xu has ascended the throne and the new party has made a comeback, I am afraid that there will be another storm in the court.
Fan Chunren sighed in his heart, he took the initiative to resign and still end up decently, if the new party makes a comeback, I am afraid it will not be much better than Liu Zhi and others.
"Rest assured, Aiqing, the new law and the old law are all beneficial, after I became in power, everything that is beneficial to the Great Song Dynasty will be adopted, but any law that is harmful to the people, I will never allow it."
Zhao Xu said proudly, he did not shy away from publicizing his determination to change the law, and at the same time reassured the old Manchu party.
"The official is wise!"
The ministers complimented them and were slightly relieved.
…………………………
"Cai is indeed loyal to the country and slandered by villains, and now he is specially rehabilitated and restored to his position as a doctor.
Inside the hospital.
As soon as Wang Di got out of the court, he couldn't wait to come to Cai Qu's hospital bed and tell him the good news.
However, now Cai is lying on the hospital bed, extremely weak.
He forcibly took the medicine of the tiger and wolf, although it was supported by the return of light, and now he finally couldn't hold it anymore and collapsed.
Hearing the news brought by Wang Di, Cai Qu's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up. It is also comforting to be able to hear the news of his ordinariness at the last moment of his life.
"Good!"
Cai Quliang spit out a word for a long time, and then there was no response.
Eight years of Yuanyu! Cai Qu, the leader of the New Party, died, and his life was full of controversy, but he shed his last drop of blood for the new party and new law.
After Zhao Xu got the news, he sighed for a long time, posthumously presented Cai Qu with the position of Taishi, called Zhonghuai, and rewarded the Cai family mansion with a number of treasures to show grandeur.
