Chapter 128 Zhao Xu: Lu Huiqing, Su Shi, you and others are all now
Owe me
Wuzi in April of the eighth year of Yuanfeng.
After Zhao Xu got up in the morning, as usual, he accompanied the two palaces to review the memorials in Baoci Palace, and also served as an atmosphere harmonizer.
Today, some small things happened in the Song Dynasty.
Lu Huiqing of Taiyuan Prefecture reports: The scouts on this road have detected that most of the Western bandits have gathered troops at Xingpo and other places after hearing about our country's funeral. They want to plot against the invaders. I am in charge of border defense and have the responsibility of guarding the territory. I have not yet requested an order.
, in accordance with the edict issued by Emperor Daxing in July last year, he dispatched the generals of this route: Xing Zuochen, Zhe Kexing, Zihu and other 22,000 people from the Han Dynasty on foot, starting from Gengchen (seventeenth day) of this month, they left the left compartment and went to the thieves
In Juxingpo, Manlang, Jiayi and other places, we defeated six strongholds of thieves and obtained more than six hundred heads. We killed thirteen thieves officers and leaders, obtained dozens of thieves' bronze seals, captured thousands of thieves and obtained camels.
Tens of thousands of cattle and horses are waiting!
Standard Lu Huiqing's face.
Just thresh the grass paddy.
It’s not that people gathered together to join the bandits.
The two palaces read Lu Huiqing's report. Although they both disliked Lu Huiqing, they were still happy.
Especially the Empress Dowager Xiang, who happily said after reading: "I am newly mourned by foreign thieves, and Lu Huiqing is able to detect the enemy's situation, deploy in advance, and lead his troops to attack, so that the thieves' plans fail. He deserves to be commended by the Secretary!"
The Queen Mother also nodded and said: "What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true!"
"Sixth brother is young now. There are thieves from all over the world, so he will inevitably despise our court. Lu Huiqing can detect the thieves' plans in advance this time and attack in advance. This is indeed a reward!"
Therefore, he gave instructions to the commander-in-chief to report according to Lu Huiqing's report and reward the meritorious generals according to the story.
This is normal. The two palaces are new to politics and have no military experience. Naturally, they believe whatever the commander-in-chief says.
Zhao Xu had no choice but to wipe Lu Huiqing's ass.
So, he gently picked up Lu Huiqing's memorial and put it in front of him.
"What's wrong with Sixth Brother?" Queen Mother Xiang asked after noticing Zhao Xu's movements.
"I'm thinking..." Zhao Xu said softly: "Will this minister named Lu Huiqing become proud and underestimate the enemy because of this victory?"
"I have observed that my father's handwriting on the border ministers left behind contains many words of advice and warnings, not to make the border ministers arrogant and not to underestimate the enemy!"
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager looked at each other.
It just so happened that they didn't like Lu Huiqing very much.
It's just that when people have made meritorious deeds, it's hard to beat them up or punish them.
But now Sixth Brother is worried that Lu Huiqing is proud and underestimates the enemy!
This is easy to handle!
Just take advantage of the topic and hammer it out!
So, the two palaces spread out paper, and after some discussion, Empress Dowager Xiang took the lead and wrote a relatively stern warning edict, asking Lu Huiqing not to underestimate the enemy, especially not to neglect border defense.
Zhao Xu took the opportunity and slipped in something private.
Empress Dowager Xiang didn't pay attention. According to Zhao Xu's words, she directly wrote the original text and emphasized: This is an official sacred precept.
Then the seal was added, and the Empress Dowager ordered Liang Weijian to immediately send someone to deliver the edict awarding the general and the edict admonishing Lu Huiqing to Lu Huiqing in the east of Hedong.
Zhao Xu watched from the side and let out a slight breath.
"Lu Huiqing, Lu Huiqing, please be more careful!"
"Don't let down my good intentions!"
In Zhao Xu's previous life, Lu Huiqing's achievements today were instantly transformed into a serious crime of "taking advantage of the border" in the hands of the radicals of the old party!
Liu Zhi, Wang Zhan, Su Che, Wang Yansou and others gathered together to besiege.
Lu Huiqing himself also provided assistance to these people at this time - the Western thieves took advantage of Lu Huiqing's slackness and relaxation after the victory, and unexpectedly assembled a large number of light cavalry to attack a border village in Hedong a month later and broke through the village.
, and carried out massacres.
This matter was regarded as a treasure by those radicals.
Not only did they not feel that they should take revenge, but they believed that this was evidence of Lu Huiqing’s crime!
Solid evidence!
As a result, Lu Huiqing suffered brutal political persecution and attacks throughout the Yuanyou era.
He was even more mentally humiliated in turn!
In particular, the edict drafted by Su Shi to accuse Lu Huiqing was harsh and humiliating. It was even more vicious than the edict written by Zhao Xu later to liquidate Wang Gui!!
Therefore, Lu Huiqing hated Su Shi deeply.
During the Shaosheng period, after Lu Huiqing was resurrected, when he went to Beijing to pay homage to Zhao Xu, he stated Su Shi's vicious intentions to his face, talked about the blows and persecution he had suffered in the past few years, and finally burst into tears.
Zhao Xu originally sympathized with Lu Huiqing's experience, but when he heard Lu Huiqing crying, he was furious!
Therefore, Su Shi, who had been kicked out of the court during the party strife in Yuanyou's era, was sitting at home, and his sin came from heaven.
This time, Zhang Dun no longer showed any favor to Su Shi.
Whoever created the figurines has no descendants?
First, he was demoted to the same position as Deputy Envoy of Ningyuan Army, which was the same as Lu Huiqing was demoted. He was not allowed to sign any official documents to vent his anger on Lu Huiqing.
Immediately afterwards, there was another edict of censure and humiliation, and he was sent across Lingnan to Huizhou, where there were no lychees.
Zhang Dun did not let him go, and found another reason. Two years later, he was sent from Huizhou to Zhanzhou to go fishing.
Therefore, Su Shi wrote a famous poem in Zhanzhou: I am the Zhan'er family, parasitic in Western Shuzhou.
Zhao Xu thought about these things and calculated them in his mind.
"Lu Huiqing, Lu Huiqing, if you can pass the test this time, then you will know how much of a favor you owe me!"
"How should you repay it?"
"Let's calculate it according to the interest rate you set for the exemption method last year..."
"With an annual interest rate of two cents, I'm afraid your descendants and grandchildren won't even be able to finish it!"
"So, be obedient and guard Hedong for me. It's best not to act rashly until I grow up!"
Well, Zhao Xu feels that no matter how he uses Lu Huiqing in the future, he will feel at ease.
After all, this is what he owes me!
Paying back debts is a matter of course!
"besides……"
"Su Shi... If you can escape the disaster of fishing in Zhanzhou this time... how can you repay my kindness?"
Thinking like this, Zhao Xu felt quite regretful.
After all, in Hainan Island, the Song Dynasty had not produced any candidates for hundreds of years, let alone Jinshi.
But modern historical records show that after Su Shi arrived in Hainan, he launched a great development in local education.
Finally, Hainan produced the first person to be promoted to the imperial examination and the first Jinshi in its history.
And he was awarded Jinshi title!
So...how about finding a way to send Su Shi to Hainan for fishing in the future?
How about discussing it with him?
I won’t belittle you this time. How about I give you a title like Hainan Economic and Strategic Envoy or Development Envoy and go to Yazhou or Zhanzhou to stay for three to five years?
After thinking about it, Zhao Xu felt that Su Shi would be grateful for his willingness to agree.
After all, he owes me a lot!
It’s not clear at all!
…
The two palace memorials were reviewed at about the same time.
Tong Jiansi came to report: Bachelor of Guanwen Palace, knowing Heyangchenjing, begging for your Majesty's words.
The two palaces then took Zhao Xu to the banquet hall of Yanhe Hall.
After the ceremonial condolences and encouragement, Zhao Xu hinted to the Queen Mother and said, "Feng Qing, the senior minister, my father, the emperor, should use the country to treat the senior ministers well and praise the Confucian ministers." , awarded Jieyue'.
Feng Jing listened and immediately felt grateful and thanked him again.
So, in the evening of this day, Zhao Xu from the two palaces came to the small hall under the inner east gate, and dictated the decree to Zeng Bu, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, who ordered Zeng Bu to make a cloth. On the grounds that Feng Jing was a veteran of the four dynasties and was a popular emperor.
kindness.
He became a bachelor of the Wen Palace in Fengjing, went to pay homage to the Jiedu Envoy of the Baoning Army, and learned about Henan Prefecture. He also ordered Yousi to make the Jiedu Yue.
