Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, adjusted his mood, and said to Gao Shi: "Gao Shi, go and get the portraits of Qin Shihuang, Meng Tian, Yang Guang, Yang Yong, Li Yuan, Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and other monarchs and ministers, as many as you can."
Take some."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Gao Shi respectfully agreed and went with a few Xiaohuangmen.
Xu Qingsou wondered why Zhao Yun wanted to see the portraits of Qin Shihuang and others. Could it be that there was something special about it?
Soon, Gao Shi and others came with portraits in their arms, and Zhao Yun ordered them to unfold them one by one. The portraits of more than a dozen people, including Qin Shihuang, Meng Tian, etc., appeared in front of Xu Qingsou and Chen Guiyi.
"Let's take a look at Xu Qing's house first and then talk."
"yes."
Xu Qingsou agreed and looked at the portraits carefully. When he saw them, he was stunned and speechless.
It turns out that the portraits of more than a dozen monarchs and ministers are all similar. It can almost be said that they were painted after three or two people.
When comparing Chai Zongxun's portrait again, it is similar to those portraits. They are all somewhat similar. If there is no identification on it, I'm afraid it's impossible to tell who is who.
The portraits of emperors, generals, and ministers are all somewhat similar. This is not surprising, because the ancients mostly described the appearance of noble people as plump in the heavens, round in the ground, and with faces like crown jade. This way, the face shape is defined and the appearance is imagined.
It's difficult not to be similar.
Zhao Yun said to Xu Qingsou with a sullen face: "Xu Qing's family, what else do you have to say?"
"this,,,"
Xu Qingsou knew that he had miscalculated. He finally raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I have nothing to say and am willing to resign. However, I still want to advise your Majesty that the person who disrupts our Song Dynasty must be Chen Guiyi."
After saying that, Xu Qingsou took off his official hat, handed it over to Gao Shi, and then left Funing Hall.
Zhao Yun shook his head, and then said to Chen Guiyi: "You don't have to take this matter to heart, I understand it."
Chen Guiyi raised his hand to express his gratitude, feeling even more awed and moved by Zhao Yun in his heart.
At the palace of Prince Wei, Han Hong had just left his official duties when his son Han Chengfu came and said that Yuan Shao, the prime minister of the left, wanted to see him.
Han Hong frowned, waved his hand and said, "When you answered him on behalf of my father, you just said that my father was tired and had rested."
Han Chengfu said: "Father, Yuan Shijun has a well-known name and a high authority in the government and the public. There must be something going on when he comes to the house. Wouldn't it be bad if my father doesn't see you?"
"It's okay, let's go back. Now is a delicate moment. Any actions that may arouse suspicion from the officials must be avoided as much as possible. Do you understand?"
Han Chengfu was surprised and said: "Father, the officials treat you like an arm and a leg, how can they doubt you?"
Han Hong gave a bitter smile and said: "Son, you don't know that the official family appointed Chen Guiyi to preside over the reform, but he never considered being a father. Don't you think that the official family is always wary of being a father?"
Han Chengfu's face changed color, and he couldn't help but show a look of fear. He was with the emperor like a tiger. He didn't expect that his father had made great contributions to the official family. After he became the privy envoy, he devoted himself to his job, but he still could not gain the full trust of the official family. The emperor
The heart is unpredictable.
Seeing that his son seemed to have complaints against Zhao Yun, Han Hong said: "Son, please remember that the official family does not fully trust his father. This is not the official family's problem, but our own problem. In today's world, our Han family is the only one in the world besides the Tian family.
The first family outside the country has a great reputation, with millions of acres of land under its name, and more than ten thousand slaves and tenants. It has food, money, people, and prestige. With such power, other dynasties would have been uprooted long ago.
It is already a great kindness for Heavenly Family to allow us to continue to enjoy wealth and honor."
Han Chengfu couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Han Hong said again: "Now the official family is going to implement reforms to get rid of the powerful people and prolong the life of the Song Dynasty. And our Han family is the biggest powerful person in the Song Dynasty. With such a big matter, how can the official family fully trust my father? It's important.
How can the officials not be cautious when it comes to the country and the country?"
After hearing this, Han Chengfu understood why his father was so cautious and avoided many officials.
"Then how will my father respond to the reform? Is it necessary to hand over millions of acres of land to the government for free?"
Han Hong suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Han Chengfu with such sharp eyes that he was so frightened that Han Chengfu took a few steps back and almost fell down.
Han Hong solemnly warned, "Child, please remember, the Han family is today thanks to the gift of the Heavenly Family. Everything in the world belongs to the Heavenly Family. If the Heavenly Family gives it to us, we will collect it on our behalf. If the Heavenly Family does not give it, we cannot do it."
Grab it, the Heavenly Family needs it, and we will give it to you with both hands. The etiquette and laws of monarchs and ministers, and the teachings of the Outline, cannot be surpassed. This is not only the way to govern the country, but also the way to survive forever. The Heavenly Family must have mercy from Heaven and obtain the "Tao" from Heaven.
As a minister who rules the human world, you should never try to fight against the heavenly family, do you understand?"
Han Chengfu silently recited Han Hong's teachings in his heart. He understood Han Hong's worries and knew that many famous ministers and generals in the past dynasties had not ended well. Are they incompetent?
Of course, they are not incompetent. The powerful ones among them are even more powerful than the emperor, but they still inevitably get killed in the end.
Say one thousand, say ten thousand. They are not fighting against the emperor, but against God, and God chooses who will dominate the world. This is the "Tao" forged by God. This is not a casual replacement. Who wants to change this "Tao"
", then he must die.
Han Chengfu bowed and said sincerely: "Father's teachings, children should remember them carefully."
Later, Han Chengfu went out to express his apology to Yuan Shao, "Ms. Yuan, my father has been tired and tired for many days. It is not suitable to see guests. Please forgive me, Mr. Yuan."
Yuan Shao's face was full of anxiety and he said: "Now is the autumn of the country's survival. How can Prince Wei only care about protecting his own life? Is it really necessary for the world to be in chaos before he is willing to stand up?"
Han Chengfu raised his hand apologetically and said, "My father is really overworked. Please forgive me, Mr. Yuan."
Yuan Shao had no choice but to throw up his sleeves and said: "That's all. You, the Han family, are just watching from the sidelines. The world is about to be in chaos, but you turned a blind eye. You are really serving as a minister in vain. Today, you just treat me as if I have never been here."
After saying that, Yuan Shao turned around and left disappointed and angry.
Evening, Funing Hall, study room.
Zhao Yun took the booklet handed over by Zhang Chu and looked through it one by one. It recorded the movements of all Lin'an officials today. When he saw the information about Yuan Shao's visit to Han Kong's house, Zhao Yun couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.
, lower your head and get closer, take a closer look.
"Have Prince Wei and Yuan Shao met?" Zhao Yun saw that they had not met, but still asked subconsciously.
Zhang Chu was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the two of them have not met. The King of Wei Jun has always kept a distance from all officials, and it is the same today. He just ordered his son Han Chengfu to reject Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao seemed to be quite...
To be angry."
Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "Well done, continue to pay attention to the behavior of the officials, and report any abnormal phenomena to the palace at any time."
