Chapter Seventy-Nine: Teachers and Students Return to Old Age
"It's not the same. Lan Yu said in a deep voice: "The first emperor is the king of entrepreneurship, and His Majesty is the king of business, and the responsibilities are different, how can they talk about the same day?"
The emperor said flatly: "This heart is the same, this reason is the same, and the different paths return." ”
Lan Yu sighed and didn't speak.
Xiao Xuan looked down at the thin layer of falling snow in the wine bottle, and suddenly said, "Teacher, in fact, you already knew about today's events. ”
Not a question, but an affirmation.
Lan Yu didn't deny it, and asked rhetorically, "Don't Your Majesty know?"
Xiao Xuan smiled, "Of course I know, but it's one thing for me to know for myself, and it's another thing for the teacher to tell me about this." ”
There was silence on the altar.
There are some things that both sides know, but once they are broken, it will be a different situation.
There was no snow at this time, but the wind was getting more and more urgent.
The blue jade white beard trembled slightly in the wind, and after a long silence, he slowly spoke: "Your Majesty...... Do you want to blame the old minister?"
Xiao Xuan finally turned around, looked directly at the teacher, and said slowly: "This kind of thing, it can be big or small, at the big point, it is a deception and a bad plot, and at the small level, it is just a matter that everyone knows, and it is trivial and insignificant." ”
Lan Yu didn't seem to want to abide by the way of the monarch and the minister anymore, and asked bluntly: "Then does Your Majesty want to say it bigger, or do you want to say it smaller?"
Xiao Xuan was not angry, and said calmly: "There is an old saying called the crime of wanting to add, there is no excuse, if I want to ask the teacher for the crime, it is enough to form a party and act recklessly." ”
Lan Yu suddenly smiled and said: "On June 20 of the tenth year of Zheng Zhengming, Zhang Jiangling, the Taishi and the first assistant of the cabinet, passed away, and Emperor Shenzong gave him the Zhuguo and Wenzhong. Nine months later, in March of the 11th year of Zhengming, Shenzong issued an edict to take back Zhang Jiangling's Shangzhu State and Taishi titles, and then issued an edict to deprive him of the title of 'Wenzhong'. This was not enough, a year later, in April of the twelfth year of Zhengming, Shenzong issued an edict to confiscate Zhang Jiangling's family property and send his son to the army. In the Zheng Dynasty, there were three people who raided the house, one was a rebel, two were rebellious, and three were traitors, but the crimes set by Shenzong against Zhang Jiangling were slanderous against the feudal clan, clamping down on the officials, dictatorship and disorderly government, and seeking disloyalty to the country. ”
Xiao Xuan said calmly: "The cabinet system began with Emperor Taizu of Dazheng, when Taizu Dazheng deposed the prime minister and set up a cabinet, there were two ancestral precepts, one is 'There are those who dare to speak out and set up a prime minister in later generations, there is no forgiveness for killing!', and the other is 'six parts of the world's affairs, and the cabinet shall not be invaded'." Therefore, the cabinet has no authority as the prime minister, only because at the time of Xuanzong, the six ministers of the cabinet entered the cabinet one after another, and the ministers of the six departments had to obey the orders of the cabinet, and the cabinet had the fact of the prime minister. At this time, Emperor Shenzong first ascended the throne, and the position was not solid, Zhang Jiangling first controlled the government with the respect of the heavenly officials and the emperor, and then took the six departments to the examination law, supervised the six departments with six departments, inspected the place with six departments, and finally manipulated the hundred officials, all military and political affairs were decided by him alone, and even the first and auxiliary decrees were more than the emperor's holy decrees, so the authority, how could the word prime minister be included?
Lan Yu said softly: "Your Majesty can see it thoroughly. ”
Xiao Xuan continued: "All countries look up to the great Zheng Tianzi, and the Quartet praises the prince of Jiangling. This is a couplet at that time, the people of the time compared Zhang Jiangling with the great Zheng Tianzi, it can be seen that his name is Shoufu, in fact, he is the regent, since ancient times, how many regents have died well?"
Lan Yu said softly: "The old minister is not Zhang Jiangling. ”
"Of course, the teacher is not Zhang Jiangling. His Majesty the Emperor said with a smile: "Since this dynasty, the first emperor felt the disadvantages of the previous dynasty's cabinet and the six ministries, and added the power of the cabinet to govern the six ministries, making the cabinet override the six ministries. ”
Lan Yu was silent for a moment, and said with emotion: "Back then, the Prime Minister of Jiangling once said, 'I take the world as my own responsibility, and I have forgotten my home and martyred the country, let alone others. Zhang Jiangling didn't know that taking the road of regency was embarking on a road of no return, but he still 'Although tens of millions of people have gone to me.' ’”

Xiao Xuan said softly: "The emperor's heart has always been sealed when there is no seal, that is, the bird is hidden with the bow, the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, it has nothing to do with the world, nor does it matter about the likes and dislikes of the people, it is only about the honor of a surname. 'Haven't you already seen it through?'
The official clothes on Lan Yu's body were blown by the strong wind, trembling like his beard, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty wants the old minister to retreat." ”
Again, this statement is an affirmation, not a question.
Xiao Xuan said word by word: "Here and now, you can't go up to the sky, you can't go down to the ground, some words can indeed be said clearly, the dispute between me and the teacher is never in the details, nor in the governance policy, not even in the Daomen, but in the authority, the teacher has assisted the left and right since the beginning of the first emperor's affairs, and it has been more than 60 years now." Teacher Fang Cai said that he was not Zhang Jiangling, and I did not want to follow Zheng Shenzong, so I wanted to ask the teacher to tell him to grow old. ”
Is Blue Jade old?
In terms of ordinary people, his age can indeed be regarded as a dying old man, but if he is considered an Earth Immortal Great Cultivator, he is not old, even if he is the first assistant of the cabinet for another sixty years, it is more than enough.
However, at this time, on the altar of the mound, in this gloomy weather, in the current situation of the great enemy, on the last day of the twenty-second year of Chengping, His Majesty the Emperor of Daqi asked his teacher to say goodbye.
Lan Yu was silent for a long time and did not speak.
Xu Bei lobbied that the world is always mistaken by the position, this sentence is very right, even if it is the autumn leaves on the eighteenth floor, otherwise he should be ascending to the Tao at this time, instead of hiding in the Zixiao Palace to make up for the Tao.
Lan Yu is an earth immortal and a great monk who cultivates to the realm of transcendence, but he is not a person who looks down on fame and fortune, in his life, he has been accompanied by countless ups and downs of fame and fortune, and now it is not easy to let him go.
As the saying goes, if you stay out of the matter, everyone can be calm. In the midst of it, who is indifferent? It is not easy to judge people, because you are not among them.
didn't sit in the position of Lan Yu, just saying that fame and fortune were just passing clouds, it was all.
The great monk persuaded people to put it down freely, just because the things they picked up were not in his hands.
Mr. Confucianism persuaded people to be happy with poverty, just because the word poor and cheap did not press on his shoulders.
The Taoist priest persuaded people to throw away their wealth and seek immortality, just because wealth was not his wealth.
All the truths in the world can't escape the four words easy to know and difficult to do.
Say it to others, easily. It's hard to do it yourself.
After a long time, Lan Yu said softly: "Now that the enemy is present, Your Majesty wants the old minister to tell the old man, so he is not afraid of destroying the Great Wall? ”
Xiao Xuan gently rotated the three-legged wine bottle in his hand, "What I said today, the teacher should have known it in his heart, the teacher is a determined person, once he makes up his mind, he will not change his original intention, so whether I say this or not will not affect how the teacher does it." ”
Lan Yu chuckled, "In this world, it was the old ministers who accompanied the first emperor to fight down, and the old ministers accompanied His Majesty to govern, so the old ministers will never let it fall into the hands of Xiao Jin and those people." ”
He paused for a moment, looked at the mound altar at his feet, and sighed: "After this incident, if Your Majesty is unharmed, the old minister is unharmed, and I am all fine, the old minister will write to the old man." ”
