Chapter 664

"All the ministers are exempted from rituals, and I will give you a seat!" Zhao Bing cleaned up and returned to the yard. The ministers said, "Long live the rituals, just like the court, and there was no sage standing there. After he sat down, he pressed his hands.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The ministers sat down one by one after another.
"I don't know if I can give you some herbal tea to relieve the heat in such a hot day. I really don't have the eyesight to see you!" Zhao Bing looked at the table without tea, and thought that these people had stood on the playground for a long time and didn't even drink saliva. Don't get caught in the heat and fainted here. He turned his face to the guards who were accompanying him.
"I dare not!" Everyone knows that the little emperor stayed on the playground longer than he did and was much tired. Wouldn't it be too ignorant if he enjoyed it with peace of mind?
"You have to be polite. What's the point of seeing me today!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and let everyone sit down. He was not interested in these cumbersome etiquettes, but these people were stubborn and had no choice, but they were always unable to adapt, so they simply turned to the topic.
"I have respected the Shengming to report two detectives who leaked military aircraft. One person in the Privy Council Pavilion and the merchants colluded with him were killed for causing trouble for the crime of collusion with the enemy. The departments and government agencies also investigated, and found that there were 16 officials who colluded with the merchants. They were all sent to prison camps and confiscated their family funds to be appointed to the officials!" Liu Fu first reported that the Minister of Justice is now short of staff, and he is temporarily in charge.
"The identity of the merchant can be found out. Is it related to the Mongolian Yuan?" Zhao Bing nodded and asked.
"Report to Your Majesty, I ordered the officials to conduct strict interrogation and personally check the case files. It was not found that it was related to the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. It was just a clerk of Qiongzhou Prefecture who was crazily crazily. In order to increase sales, the news of the purchase from the Privy Council was tampered with and published, and there was no affair with the enemy!" Liu Fu replied.
"Okay, I did a good job. I will find out the truth in a few days and handle it properly. I feel very relieved!" Zhao Bing praised.
"I dare not take credit for it. It was because Your Majesty found the clue and was able to quickly find out the people who leaked the military situation. I am ashamed!" Liu Fu bowed and retreated back to his original position.
"I congratulate Your Majesty for reporting the great victory this time!" It was His Majesty's imperial order that he must report the first, and then Lu Xiufu stood up and bowed.
"Oh, there is good news coming back from Wen Xiang?" Zhao Bing asked.
"Report to Your Majesty, the Northern Expedition Army has all contracted to the coastal ports and established defense lines. It is reported that nearly 100,000 people evacuated with the army this time. Yesterday, there were more than 10,000 people and more than 30 ships of spoilage to Qiong. Later, they were reaching the port one after another!" Lu Xiufu reported.
"There are so many people who have defected to the court. God is so virtuous!" Zhao Bing said in surprise. This has exceeded his previous expectations, which made him excited and a little uneasy. He rubbed his hands and asked, "Will there be a proper placement plan for so many people who have flocked to Qiongzhou?"
"Report to Your Majesty, the number of people returning to the court this time does exceed the previous estimate. However, although Qiongzhou is small in area, its population has always been insufficient, and there are still tens of thousands of hectares of wasteland that have not been reclaimed along the rivers. There is no difficulty in resettling the people returning to the court, but the oxen and agricultural supplies are slightly insufficient, so a large amount of purchase is still needed!" Yao Liangchen, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, stood up and said.
"Well, we must work with all prefectures and counties to resettle the people, and allocate the required materials as soon as possible. The insufficient amount will be supplemented by the depots under the Ministry of Revenue!" Zhao Bing said.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I have already drafted a statement and submitted it to the Secretariat!" Yao Liangchen replied.
"Prime Minister Lu, you can hold a meeting as soon as possible and report it to me after the discussion and review!" Zhao Bing turned to Lu Xiufu and said.
"I obey the order!" Lu Xiufu politely said, "Your Majesty, in addition to the people who came with the army from Guangnan recently, there are also other righteous men who crossed the sea to Qiong to serve the king. Among them, there are many old ministers and famous scholars of the court!"
"Oh, who is here?" Zhao Bing said happily again.
"Report to Your Majesty, the former Minister of Rites Wang Yinglin, who is from Bianliang. After moving to Qingyuan Prefecture after moving to the south, he moved to Lizong, Duzong and Emperor Beishou of the Three Dynasties. He was knowledgeable and talented and relied on the knowledge of erudition and poetry. After the fall of Lin'an, he lived in seclusion in the village and opened a library to teach disciples and teach classics and history. After hearing that Xing Dynasty moved to Qiong, the enemy army repeatedly defeated him, so he came to serve the emperor to repay his kindness!" Chen Zhongwei, the Minister of Personnel, who was in charge of this matter, came forward to report.
"There were other three Hu and Sanshengs who returned to the court. Bao Younian was the same as Lu. He was upright and did not flatter and had a rough career. In the third year of Xianchun, he was appointed by Li Tingzhi, the commander of the Jianghuai regime, and served as a professor of the Shouchun Prefecture and assisted the Huaidong Shogun. Later, after passing the examination, he was changed to Fengyilang and was appointed as Jiangling County. In the tenth year of Xianchun, he served as the driver of the Yangtze River commander Yiwenzi and was promoted to Fenglang. The following year, he was changed to Jia Sidao's aide and joined the army on the Yangtze River. However, he did not agree with Jia, and Jia would not accept any suggestions. In that year, Jia Sidao was in charge of Wuhu and was defeated in Lugang in February. After the Song army was disintegrated, the three provinces returned to Ninghai, and since then they have been hiding in the village for a long time, living in seclusion and writing books."
"Also, Shu Yuexiang, the head of the Chicheng Academy in Zhejiang, ordered dozens of disciples to come; the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Confucianism was promoted, the Suzhenglian visits the officials of the Ministry of Justice, Jixian Zhishi and the Imperial College Supervisor, Hanlin Seminar Deng Wenyuan, Zhu Xiong He, the three disciples of Zhu Xiong He, and Xie Xiang, one of the three wise men of Fu'an, all came to Qiong!" Chen Zhongwei reported.
"Well, these people are all pillars of my throne. They are talented at the moment. They must be properly placed and welcome them well. When I have time, I will visit them in person!" Zhao Bing nodded and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I will place them in the Qiongtai Inn first to rest and wait for resettlement!" Chen Zhongwei replied.
"Your Majesty, the former right prime minister Ma Tingluan and his eldest son had arrived in Qiong last night, and will be placed in my house for the time being!" At this time, Lu Xiufu reported again.
"Oh, Ma Xiang has returned to court, too?" Ying Jieyan said in surprise.
"Ma Xiang came to the army and the emperor would regain his reputation!" Liu Fu also said excitedly.
"Please tell me that I am still confused!" Zhao Bing saw that several people could not hide their excitement after hearing this, and could not help but whisper. He was the only one who looked at them as foolishly as if they were not sure what to say.
"Your Majesty, I will report it in detail..." Seeing that the little emperor was confused, Lu Xiufu suddenly thought that he was still young and did not know what he was doing, so he quickly introduced it in detail.
Zhao Bing also learned about his deeds. Ma Tingluan lost his father when he was young, and did not change his ambition when he was poor. He studied hard. In the seventh year of Chunyou, he went to Beijing to participate in the provincial examination of Yiwei, and won the first place in the imperial examination. He became the fourth place in the palace examination. He became famous in one fell swoop. After obtaining the provincial government, he was transferred to Chizhou professor. In the first year of Baoyou, he was summoned to the capital hall for review and resigned. The following year, he was transferred to the Ministry of Revenue to build a pavilion. In the third year of Baoyou, he was transferred to the Taixue Record and was summoned to the examination hall.
However, his birth was not at the right time. At that time, his relatives Xie Tang, Li Wenweng, and the eunuch Lu Yunsheng, and Dong Songchen were in power. Ma Tingluan said in the trial strategy: "The king of the border is virtuous, respects the power of the prime minister, collects the ministers, and prevents the recent practices." His words hit the current problems, but offended the powerful ministers and later changed to the official title of Secretariat. In the fourth year of Baoyou, You Yu recommended historical events. He valued Ma Tingluan's talent and made him a history museum proofreading.
But he was not without the opportunity to make a fortune. The powerful prime minister Ding Daquan was appointed as the magistrate of Fuliang County, and attempted to win him over, but Ma Tingluan was unmoved. When he entered the court, Ding Daquan was already signing the letter to the Privy Council. When the court was in the wheel pair, Ma Tingluan wanted to impeach Ding Daquan, so he instructed Wang Chihou to investigate the situation and deal with the middle. He asked Ma Tingluan to make an illness and not participate in the wheel pair, but was rejected by him. So Ding Daquan tried every means to impeach Ma Tingluan, which instead made him famous.
Ma Tingluan discussed three tribute matters: "Sing the village's actions, Yan Tai Province's re-examination, and visits the legacy of the mountains and forests." He also said: "The wasteland should be paid, except for disaster-stricken states and those who cannot obtain rent and taxes in the county." He was also the military weapon supervisor, the right minister, the crown prince's right emperor virtue, and the Imperial Master and the left minister. During the wheel pair, Ma Tingluan said: "Those who gather the blessings of peace start from Your Majesty's body, and those who cultivate the virtue of peace start from Your Majesty's heart." He was also promoted to the Secretary-General's Shaozheng and promoted to the direct academician of the Bachelor's College.
In the fourth year of Jingding, he was promoted to the clerk of the prince, the right son of the crown prince, the editor of the National History Academy, and the reviewer of the Records Academy. When he entered the report, he boldly proposed: "The Grand Historian must be careful in writing disasters and Xun. I hope Your Majesty will be given the gifts to strengthen the spirit of talents and be humble to accept them, cultivate the backbone of people's words, think of helping the foundation, destroying private people, and strictly guarding the border, and thinking about prevention of troubles." At this time, the court appointed Dong Songchen as prime minister, and Ma Tingluan cited He Tan's theory to advance, and said that Dong Songchen was not available, so the emperor followed it.
In the first year of Xianchun, the clan ascended the throne. In the intercalary May, he joined Ma Tingluan as a scholar in Duanming Palace. He signed a letter to the Privy Council and was also appointed as the editor of the "Jingwu Yaoluan". In the third year of Xianchun, he joined the Tongzhi Privy Council and participated in the political affairs. In the fifth year of Xianchun, Ma Tingluan became the Chief Minister and the Chief Minister. In the third year of the same year, he became the Right Prime Minister and the Privy Council. From then on, he entered the central government. However, he was disagreeable with Jia Sidao and was dismissed from his right prime minister and transferred to the local government. After Zhao Xian ascended the throne, he ordered him to return to the court and not to come, and he would dismiss his post and return home...
"Good luck makes people!" Zhao Bing sighed after hearing this, Ma Tingluan was diligent in his work and loved the people, and was upright in nature, from a local official to a high position of prime minister. Unfortunately, the Southern Song Dynasty court was unable to fully demonstrate his talents. Jia Sidao, a treacherous minister of the Duzong Dynasty, and Ding Daquan, who controlled the government affairs as dissent, was suppressed by him, and was forced to retreat due to internal and external troubles. The Song Dynasty did not cooperate with the Yuan regime, and still had the national integrity and aspiration to serve the country. When he was obedient, he returned to the court and showed his loyalty.
"Your Majesty is full of blessings, and the wars have been won one after another. Now there are famous scholars who have come to join us. It is just right for the ceremony to hold a lecture to assist Your Majesty!" Lu Xiufu congratulated again.
"Yes, this is the time to restore the country!" Zhao Bing nodded with a smile, but the ministers who were in excitement were a little reluctant to see that the little emperor smiled.
Zhao Bing knew that Lu Xiufu's intention was to worry that he would value military men and despise scholars, so he wanted to use the lectures to influence him and thus preserve his position as scholars. But he also understood that there were no tyrants among the eighteen emperors of the Song Dynasty in history, but there were many foolish monarchs. Zhenzong, who was timid and afraid of the enemy, Huizong, who was drunk and drunk, Gaozong, and Lizong, who was not concerned about politics, are all typical examples.
Although there were not many wise monarchs among the emperors of the Song Dynasty, the tyrant monarchs had a good tradition, that is, they were easy to study and re-read. During the reign of Emperor Taizong, he organized the compilation of three large series of books with rich content and voluminous content, and left the idiom "Opening is beneficial" for later generations.
In "Poems of Encouraging Learning", Zhenzong wrote: "A rich family does not have to buy good land, there are thousands of millets in books; there is no need to build a high hall in your house, there is a golden house in books; there is no regret for marrying a wife, there is a beauty in books." Huizong loves literature and art, his painting skills are perfect, and he reaches the pinnacle, and he creates the famous "slim gold style" in calligraphy. Although Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty has been infamous for thousands of years in history, he is also a calligrapher with profound attainments.
Zhao Bing was also an educated person in his previous life. Of course, he was not disgusted with studying and studying. After this era, he should be said to be very dedicated to education. However, he was very dissatisfied with this kind of education that was purposeful and directed, especially because he wanted to exert influence on himself to suppress his political opponents. It can also be said that he was always wary of the conspiracy against him. However, he could not refuse in public, so he could only agree and take one step at a time.
"Your Majesty, I will prepare to speak in spring and arrange for my ministers to join the service." Lu Xiufu did not give the little emperor a breath and immediately asked for a remark.
"Let's make arrangements for now, but I've been busy with military affairs recently and there will be conflicts in time. I'll decide when to start the lecture after deliberation!" Zhao Bing knew that the spring lectures every year range from February to Dragon Boat Festival, but this stage is also the season for the military's spring training. I'm afraid I have to stay in the new military camp for a while, and only after getting on the right track can I have time to listen to their longings, so I did not say death, but left a back door for myself.
"Your Majesty, the lectures of the country are a major event. Do not delay the matters of spring. Do not mislead national affairs because of trivial matters!" How could Lu Xiufu not hear the perfunctory intentions in His Majesty's words? His Majesty has devoted himself to military affairs at present. He cannot help but worry that once he is "deeply trapped" in it, they will eventually become supporting roles for military personnel, and he can't help but say anxiously.
"Is this statement from Lu that I am not doing my job properly, and is it the right thing to listen to the whineless complaining all day long? Let's discuss what Chun talks about later!" Zhao Bing was reluctant at first, but when Lu Xiufu's words meant to force the palace, he had to listen, and if he didn't listen, he had to listen. He said with a deep expression.
"Your Majesty, I have no intention of this. The things I will talk about are all for Your Majesty and for the country!" Seeing this, Lu Xiufu was very anxious and hurriedly said.
"Your Majesty, although Prime Minister Lu is anxious, he is also concerned about the country. Only by receiving the teachings of a saint can you know how to govern the country and control the people!" Xu Zongren and others were also stunned. They had to prepare just now, but why did they become anxious as they said that, and quickly agreed.
"Yes, Your Majesty, only by hearing the truth first can you know the way to govern the country. You must not go to the wrong path!" Yao Liangchen also advised.
"If it is a mere lecture to support the country, why should I work hard here? Then you might as well go to Dadu to tell the old thief Kublai Khan. If he hears it, he will have a kind heart and return all the Jiangnan and Jiangbei to our court!" Zhao Bing was furious and slapped a few times. These people kept saying that they were doing it for their own good and for the country. In fact, they were all planning their own plans. Now they were almost forced to jump into the sea to swim and play this game.
"I don't dare!" Lu Xiufu saw that the little emperor was really annoyed, and hurriedly saluted with the ministers.
