Chapter 965: Scrape bones to cure poison and remove carrion!
Starting from Detective Li Yuanfang, Chapter 982 of the main text volume Wanyan Gou officially launches "Zong Ze?"
Li Yan was a little surprised: "How did my father meet this person?"
Although one is the Supreme Emperor and the other is the Supreme Emperor, the relationship between family members is still the same as before. Lin Yuanjing has nothing to be embarrassed about: "We met on the racecourse. This person is very knowledgeable and generous."
He is extraordinary and can be a good minister. It is a pity to be idle in the countryside..."
Li Yan listened to the detailed process, nodded and said: "I see, since you have talents and are willing to serve the imperial court, you should use them yourself."
He gave an order, and soon the information queried by the officials was sent over. He chuckled and said: "This is a scholar who is to be admitted to the capital. He comes to the capital to take part in the imperial examination. There is a big exam in ten days. He can also go to the racecourse to combine work and rest.
He is quite an interesting person.”
Lin Yuanjing was a little surprised when he thought that Zongze, who was about the same age as himself, actually came to take part in the imperial examination: "Isn't this year a new exam... can he adapt?"
Li Yandao: "Who did my father listen to before he had the opinion that it was difficult to adapt to new learning?"
After all, their status was different. Lin Yuanjing was a little cautious, but he did not hide it: "These days, there are indeed rumors outside, saying that it was the imperial court's efforts to promote new learning that suppressed the scholars of the previous dynasty, and many of them were convicted..."
Li Yan didn't take it seriously. He knew that this would be the case as early as after the gentry led by the Kong family in Qufu and the Han family in Xiangzhou were rectified: "The influence of scholar-bureaucrats among the people should not be underestimated, and now they cannot accept the reduction of their status."
If there is a gap, there will always be some gossips and anecdotes about unofficial history, which is normal."
Lin Yuanjing was a little worried: "Then what are you going to do?"
Li Yan smiled and said: "No matter what you do, there will always be opponents of any policy. Back then, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was arranged to travel to the underworld by Shandong scholars. It does not prevent him from being a wise emperor rarely seen in the ages..."
"Now that the treatment of scholar-officials has been greatly reduced, are they still not allowed to complain and complain? Besides, some of the words are not completely unreasonable. All voices must be listened to. The most important thing is to defend the people's words more than to defend the river."
Lin Yuanjing admired this man's broad-mindedness, and when he thought of the status of a scholar-bureaucrat, he was deeply moved: "Ten years ago, I still firmly believed that the only way out was to study for the imperial examination, and I advised you to take the imperial examination. It turns out that you are so capable.
But those extremely noble scholar-bureaucrats no longer have a position above others..."
Li Yandao: "Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and the four peoples of the country, were originally no different in superiority or inferiority. However, after the scholars took control of the right to speak, they began to seek a position above their abilities. In addition, in the late Tang Dynasty, the warriors brought trouble to the world, which caused people to think that
Only by learning from this can the custom of the previous dynasty of worshiping literature and suppressing military force be completely formed."
"If we continue to follow this situation, the trend will become more and more abnormal. Fortunately, it is not difficult to correct it now. There are more people participating in the imperial examination this year. They complain and complain, but they still take the exam together."
"The meaning of new learning is to refresh the atmosphere and at the same time pursue practicality more and more. Based on the cultural education of the previous dynasty, it is a good thing for scholars with real talents and practical learning, such as this Zongze."
There were still a large number of talented people in the previous dynasty, Zhao and Song, but after the change of dynasties, many people were still in opposition. Li Yan was not prepared to use the foresight of history to search specifically. Those who should come will always come. He was happy for Zongze to participate in the imperial examination of the new dynasty.
.
Zong Ze will adapt to the new subjects because he was a man who dared to think and do things when he was young. He ignored the word limit and wrote more than 10,000 words in the imperial examination, expounding on the current shortcomings and criticizing the "disaster of cronyism" in the court. Then the examiner "took it for granted"
"Speak outright and fear disobedience", placed in the "last", "given the same background as Jinshi".
This is because the palace examination will not depose scholars, otherwise Zongze would not even have an imperial examination background. However, in the next thirty years of history, he has been working at the grassroots level. It is probably because his upright character is very consistent with the official atmosphere of the Song Dynasty.
They couldn't get along until the Jingkang crisis.
Zongze, who had become an old man, was ordered to guard Kaifeng in the critical situation. He resisted the Jin army's attacks again and again in such a critical situation, so that the Jin people were afraid and called him "Grandpa Zong".
Zongze was still Yue Fei's bole, and Yue Fei would be punished for breaking the law. Zongze felt that Yue Fei was a talented person, so he asked him to make atonement when the Jin attacked Sishui. Yue Fei defeated the Jin and returned, Zongze promoted him to the commander, and Yue Fei
It became famous from this.
Of course, according to the behavior of the early Southern Song Dynasty, all generals who were loyal to the country would not end well. Zongze was one of them. During his tenure in Kaifeng, he wrote to Zhao Gou more than 20 times, urging the return of the capital, and formulated a plan to regain the Central Plains.
None of the strategies were adopted, and in the end he was worried and angry.
When he became seriously ill, he cried out "cross the river" three times before he died, and he never closed his eyes until he died.
Nowadays, such a loyal minister no longer has to die in worry and anger. Although Zongze will definitely be discovered in the palace examination once he passes the examination, Li Yan still handed him over: "To promote talents for the country, you are worthy of being the Supreme Emperor!"
Lin Yuanjing laughed: "Your mother has disliked me recently. Remember to tell her that I am also doing business... By the way, on the field, I also heard that the golden man sold horses to merchants. It is true.
What?"
Li Yan nodded: "It's true."
Lin Yuanjing found it a little unbelievable: "That's strange. I have heard for a long time that the Jin people were ferocious and cruel. They destroyed Goryeo and the Liao Kingdom. Now they are robbing people everywhere, even the Qiang people on the border of Xixia. Now they are selling horses to support the enemy.
, is there some conspiracy?"
Li Yan raised his lips slightly: "Don't underestimate the enemy, and don't hold yourself too high. The Jin people are also human beings, and their subjects will naturally do things to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country out of greed."
Lin Yuanjing stroked his hand and said: "That's good, it's best to sell more!"
Li Yan Youran: "It is definitely not enough to rely on the horses of the Kingdom of Jin and the cavalry of Dayan, but then it depends on how the gold owner copes with this crisis. How long can the rule based on fear be maintained?
"
…
"Drag them down! Kill them all!"
Wanyan Agu cut off a human head with a knife, and with blood splattering, he gritted his teeth and gave the order.
"Your Majesty, please spare your life! Your Majesty, spare your life!!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Amidst the shrill wails, the chiefs of four or five small tribes were dragged down. Not long after, the guards presented their bloody heads. Wanyan Aguda looked at the
With distorted faces, they said sternly: "These collaborators and traitors will not be allowed to be buried in a civil ceremony, but will be thrown out to feed the dogs!"
The guard took the order: "Yes!"
Seeing the imperial brother slowly sitting down, his face turned green and white, Wanyan Wu Qimai, who was appointed as the master of banbojilie, the crown prince of the Jin Kingdom, hurriedly said: "Brother, please calm down, it is not worth getting angry for such a thief.
The body..."
Wanyan Aguda patted the table angrily: "How can I appease my anger? Emperor Yan held horse racing, and Yan Ting searched for good horses everywhere to breed them, in order to revive the horse administration and cultivate large-scale cavalry. This is to destroy our Jin Kingdom.
!These chiefs are so greedy that they sell horses to the Yan people? Sell weapons to the enemy to kill themselves? Are they crazy!!"
Wanyan Wu begged to buy and whispered: "The Yan people are cunning, the prices are extremely high, and they even have goods that are urgently needed by the original source. The chiefs of these small tribes cannot see such far-off things and only care about the business in front of them..."
Wanyan Aguda raised his hand: "I understand what you said, businessmen are so greedy."
"Not to mention me, the Jin people, even if Yan Ting closed the mutual market, wouldn't there still be Yan merchants who took desperate risks, looked for gaps in the Great Wall that had not yet been built, and sold large quantities of goods?"
"But these chiefs shouldn't be like this, and I will never allow it. If they can't see clearly, they will die, and others will naturally see clearly!"
Wanyan Wu Qimai couldn't hide his worry: "But if we continue to kill like this..."
Wanyan Aguda was silent for a moment and sighed: "We have no other choice. We must kill them as a warning to others. As long as we show the slightest sign of weakness, the hearts of the people in each department will be even more scattered!"
In fact, Wanyan Wu Qimai also knew that since Yelu Yanxi died at the hands of the Jin people, the line of ruling with benevolence would not work. However, he still felt that this imperial brother was too extreme and whispered: "Brother Huang, those
Han civilian officials can be used in many ways!"
Wanyan Aguda took a deep breath and listened to the heir's opinion: "Who do you think can be reused?"
Wanyan Wu Qimai thought for a while and named the most obedient and eloquent person: "Recently, there is a man who has gone through untold hardships and fled north to Dajin. His name is Du Chong. He is from Xiangzhou, Hebei. For
He has a deep understanding of the situation in the Southern Dynasties and has good insights that can be reused!"
Du Chong and Zongze were about the same age. They were both Jinshi scholars. Their official careers were not prominent at first. Historically, they only came to prominence during the Jingkang crisis. However, this is a notorious negative example.
This man first served as the magistrate of Cangzhou, Chai Jin's hometown, and the border of Song and Liao where he first recruited rural soldiers. At that time, the Jin people invaded the south, and many people fled from Yanyun and lived in Cangzhou. Du Chong felt that there were internal Jin people among them, regardless of gender.
All young and old will be killed.
Immediately guarding Daming Mansion, he boasted that "Commanders are not allowed to strategize, but should take risks."
"The target is a stone", it seems that Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, has been reincarnated. Not only can he plan strategies, but he will also personally lead the troops into battle. As a result, the Jin soldiers really came. He escaped before the battle and ran away. He also came up with a "brilliant" idea and started to fight.
Cut off the Yellow River and let the flood drown the Jin soldiers.
There are indeed many examples of floods that flooded armies in history. As a result, no Jin people were killed when Du Chong fought against the river. More than 200,000 local Han people were directly drowned. The number of deaths caused by subsequent plagues was too high to be counted. The Northern Song Dynasty was the most
The rich and prosperous Lianghuai region was destroyed, leaving tens of millions of people homeless and becoming refugees.
What is even more frightening is that due to the lack of timely control, the Yellow River has since lost control and entered a period of frequent flooding and diversion, which has brought endless harm to the entire middle and lower reaches and will last for thousands of years.
After ravaging Hebei, Du Chong came to Henan again. At that time, Zongze died in grief and anger. He took over the guarding of Kaifeng and immediately went in the opposite direction. He suppressed Yue Fei and was not able to provide any rescue to the rebels. Finally, he gave up Bianjing.
Fleeing south to Jiankang, he lost all Song Dynasty territory north of the Yangtze River.
A general like Zongze who was so loyal to his country was so angry that he was so angry. What would he do with a minister who killed the people, crossed the Yellow River, avoided fighting in fear of death, abandoned the capital, and abandoned the vast territory?
Du Chong was worshiped as the Right Prime Minister.
This is the Southern Song Dynasty, this is Zhao Gou, it is very reasonable.
The key is that Du Chong surrendered to the Jin people in the end, so that when Zhao Gou received the news of the surrender, he could not accept it. "He who does not eat will be tired for days."
At this time, Zhao Song had died early. Wanyan Wu begged for a wisdom eye pearl and recommended Du Chong. Wanyan Agu didn't agree immediately after being knocked down. He frowned, looked outside, and showed a rare smile: "Gou'er is here!
"
As soon as he finished speaking, a child with a tiger-like head and a single ponytail lifted a corner of the curtain and rushed in: "Uncle Huang! Uncle Huang!"
