Chapter 332 Jiayou Lao Chen’s Skills (500 monthly votes plus more updates)
)
Jiayin (25), the first month of the first year of Yuanyou.
Zichen Palace listens to politics.
Before being pardoned by the imperial edict, he entered Dongtou to serve as an official, and was assigned to Han Yongshi in Ruzhou Prison. He was exempted from his sentence and was specially released to his home.
This is a legendary figure.
The legend is that he came out of Salmon Island alive!
And for him to be pardoned, he must thank his mother, who has been writing letters and quoting various pardons over the years to exonerate him.
From Salmon Island to Ruzhou to deploy troops, and from deploying troops to being free.
Han Yongshi has been gone for five years!
His mother spent thousands of dollars in family wealth!
This time, it was even more related to Mrs. Xiang’s family. When Mrs. Xiang sent people to the palace, she begged the Queen Mother for mercy and told the story of Han Mu’s begging for amnesty every year.
The Empress Dowager Xiang burst into tears upon hearing this and felt sympathy, so she granted this pardon.
Chao Fenglang, Quanfa sent Lu Changheng, the deputy transshipment envoy to Huainan, Lu Dazhong, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, and Quanfa sent the deputy transshipment envoy to Shaanxi, so that they could go to Shaanxi hand in hand to help Fan Chunchun.
This was recommended by Han Jiang and Lu Gongzhu.
Cai Jing of the Quan Zhi Kaifeng Prefecture reported: According to the decree, Kaifeng Prefecture has reinstated county captains, archers, etc., and the counties in the Kaifeng Prefecture should be responsible for arresting and stealing civil and military officials and arresting people, and should be under the jurisdiction of the government and the official affairs of the prefecture. Rewards and punishments are entrusted to the government for implementation.
Because it was the place under Zhao Xu's direct control, Zhao Xu made a ruling in the palace: Accordingly, Kaifeng Mansion was ordered to take charge of the official affairs of the government. When recruiting county captains and archers, they must be assessed. One teaches archers.
Because Di Yong and other generals were heading south, we issued a special order: If any armies move to defend in the future, they will be given special rations every day. The generals will be given three liters per day and the soldiers will be given two liters per day.
This was at the request of Han Jiang, the Prime Minister of the Left. The story is that in the past, only the troops guarding the border were moved to provide rations. The other armies moved to defend and all used domestic rations for road use. Han Jiang thought it was uneven and hurt the sharpness of his soldiers, so he begged for legislation.
Supervisory censor Sun Sheng wrote a letter to impeach Dr. Chaosan, Guang Luxun and Lu Jiawen.
A total of two evidences of Lu Jiawen's crimes were cited. The first is: Lu Jiawen was the first to advocate the change of market laws, which would harm the country and the people, and he could not stay in the court for a long time.
Second: The guilty criminal Zhao Xuan, a minor official, was specially ordered to never be hired because he was involved in the fraud cases of Wu Anchi and Wen Jifu.
But Lu Jiawen asked this minor official to change his name and use it as an official of Guanglu Temple.
This is disobedience to the late emperor's will and even more blasphemous to the imperial laws.
Lu Jia was ordered to defend himself.
Zhao Xu was as motionless as a mountain during this process.
It's not that I don't want to pull Lu Jiawen out of the way, but I really can't get rid of this 'family thief' of the Lu family.
The Market Change Law was indeed Lu Jiawen's idea, and now that it has been abolished, he will naturally be affected.
What's more, he was caught doing it.
That Zhao Xuan clearly had a purpose - never to hire him.
Lu Jiawen thought he was smart and changed his name to Guanglu Temple.
If no one finds out, that's fine.
Now someone has caught him.
Then there's no way!
but……
Zhao Xu rolled his eyes and decided to demote Lu Jiawen repeatedly - let him go to Guangnan West Road to serve as Youjiang's pacifier, responsible for coordinating and managing the current Guihua Prefecture, Shunzhou and the possible future Guangyuan Prefecture and Silang Prefecture.
Such a Jizhou!
Zhao Xu was still very optimistic about Lu Jiawen.
This guy can even think of market changes!
He must be full of bad ideas!
As the saying goes, evil people must be punished by evil people. Demoting Lu Jiawen to Guangxi to run the sugar cane sugar industry in the future will definitely make new contributions to the Song Dynasty!
Of course, we have to wait until Zhang Dun wins the battle.
…
After leaving the court, Zhao Xu changed into casual clothes and sat with the two palaces again in Chongzheng Hall.
Here he met Zhang Dun, Di Yong, Yan Chen and others who came to deliver his speech.
The so-called speech has long been a ceremonial procedure.
So, just go through the process.
Zhang Dun and others bowed again to express their determination, and then Zhao Xu and the two palaces expressed their condolences, and then they were able to retreat and prepare to set off.
The total time spent before and after is only a quarter of an hour.
After sending Zhang Dun and others away, Zhao Xu accompanied the two palaces to the Qingshou Palace in Da Nei.
This palace has now been completely renovated.
The cinnabar, lead powder, and mercury on the walls, corridors, and screens have all been removed, and many places have even been rebuilt along with the pillars.
At the same time, it has been ventilated for a month.
Walking in it can be said to be refreshing and refreshing, which Zhao Xu liked very much.
The two palaces looked very happy.
For Ouchi, doing so naturally comes with a price.
From now on, the maintenance cost of this Qingshou Palace will increase greatly!
Every summer and autumn, the cost of insect and ant control increases dramatically.
But, this is all small money.
Moreover, the royal family's internal expenses are neither left to the left nor right to the treasury.
Nor is it using the money left by the late emperor to seal the piles.
It is the rent collected by the Bianjing store housekeeper, the profits of various shops and workshops in Beijing, and the supply of goods.
Therefore, the outer court cannot control it.
…
Zhang Dun and others resigned and left the palace.
We were about to go home and were ready to go - we were going to Guangxi with high mountains and long roads, and the roads were rugged.
When I return to Beijing again, it will be at least next year or even the year after that.
Considering the bad transportation and even worse medical standards in this era.
Even if you are a high-ranking official or aristocrat, if you travel so far away, if you are in poor health or have bad luck, you may have to say goodbye forever.
Therefore, I need to say goodbye to my family, wife and children.
At the same time, a banquet must be held to say goodbye to relatives and friends.
Especially for Zhang Dun, he had to say goodbye to the governors of the capital. From now on, he had to count on these prime ministers to speak more kind words and give him more policies in the capital.
At this time, Feng Jing, a minister beside the emperor, appeared in front of them with a booklet.
"Everyone..."
"This is the strategic plan given by Your Majesty..."
Zhang Dun and others quickly faced the direction of Funing Hall and bowed to receive the documents given by the emperor.
They weren't surprised either.
Zhao officials, when did you not give some formation diagrams or something to the ministers?
However, after taking the booklet, Zhang Dun took a peek at it quietly.
There are no diagrams - it's all text.
Zhang Dun made a sound of surprise and put it into his sleeve.
…
Sima Guang, disappointed, took the edict from the palace not to allow His Majesty to see his hands from his son Sima Kang.
It’s still a cliché to comfort me—Sima Gong, the national stock-in-trade, my teacher and protector, should take care of himself, why bother to care about trivial matters?
Along with the edict, there was also a so-called budget book given by the emperor.
Sima Guang sighed after reading it.
"Three hundred and nine thousand strings..."
"This is also a matter of people's wealth and people's anointing!"
However, the attitude has softened somewhat.
Although he didn't believe that it really only cost 300,000 yuan, and he didn't believe that only 5,000 imperial troops could conquer Jiaozhi.
Sima Guang knew it.
Now it's five thousand. If the war starts, even fifty thousand won't be able to stop it.
Fifty thousand people, that’s three million!
Maybe even ten million guan will not be able to stop it!
Where can I get so much money?
In the end, shouldn’t this money have to be spent on the people?
The people are already suffering a lot!
However, Sima Guang also understood that the matter was actually a done deal.
The appointments of Zhang Dun and Di Yong have been given.
The decision-making between the DPRK and China has also been finalized.
He cannot change the status quo.
The reason why Sima Guang persisted in submitting the letter was so persevering.
He even drags his sick body with him and keeps begging for sex.
In fact, it is to advance before retreating - this is the habit of Jiayou Laochen.
When talking about things, we usually take three steps forward, then one or two steps back, so that we can at least take one step forward in the end.
If you are lucky and can achieve all three steps at once, that will be even more beautiful!
Renmiao and Yingmiao were often fooled by ministers.
Therefore, after Sima Guang learned about the affairs of Jiaozhi in the south, he had only one appeal from beginning to end - the people of Jiaozhi should be given a chance to defend themselves!
As long as the people of Cochin surrender, it will be fine.
By then, only the three hundred thousand guan will be wasted.
300,000 yuan is a good deal for a decent face - after all, the Jiaozhi people are indeed provocative and invade first. If they don't even respond to this, then the emperor and the two palaces will indeed lose their face!
What's more, these 300,000 yuan can also save one new general in the capital!
This is more cost-effective.
So Sima Guang picked up his pen again and began to write a letter.
This time, he wrote very seriously, it was very long, and he put a lot of emotion into it.
However, his health was not very good, so after only writing for a while, he felt a little unable to do what he wanted. He had no choice but to let his son Sima Kang write it for him, and he dictated it.
After finishing writing, Sima Guang checked it twice to make sure that there were no taboos or typos, so he asked Sima Kang to copy it and then stamp it with his own hand.
After finishing this matter, Sima Guang said to Sima Kang: "When Zhang Dun and others leave the capital tomorrow, hand this letter to the Secretary of Tongjian!"
Sima Kang raised his head in surprise.
Sima Guang smiled and said: "As a minister, you must be aware of contingencies!"
He is indeed stubborn, but he is not ignorant of flexibility and insists on having his own way.
What's more, his purpose from the beginning to the end was not to stop the army from going south - five thousand people, the total cost was only 300,000 yuan.
But to prevent war, at least a large-scale war!
And Sima Guang believed that the emperor would know his good intentions.
You must also know that the people are already suffering terribly!
The Son of Heaven is benevolent and sage, and he must be aware of the sufferings of the people, and he must not tolerate the suffering of the people because of a barren land.
Well, starting from today, I will first pay off the August monthly pass plus 40 chapters.
Then pay back the arrears from yesterday and the previous few days.
I remember clearly, there were 3 chapters yesterday, and one chapter every day for the past few days, a total of 4 chapters, which adds up to seven chapters. I will try my best to pay it off within two months, that is, within November.
