Chapter 580 Why are you wearing old Liu’s clothes?
After the Jiying Palace retreated, the elders and governors came to the capital hall to talk and drink tea. Naturally, there was a business exchange, and the whole capital hall was in a happy mood.
While everyone was talking, an old official in soap clothes suddenly came up behind Han Jiang and whispered something.
Han Jiang's expression suddenly froze.
"Zuo Kui, what's wrong?" Lu Gongzhu asked.
Han Jiang looked strange and replied: "Shi Deyi is here."
The whole capital suddenly became quiet.
Shi Deyi was the late emperor's confidante and had been controlling the Imperial City Department for the late emperor.
When the late emperor was seriously ill, he was placed under house arrest.
But later there was a miraculous comeback, and it is said that it was Bao Ci Gong who took action.
Since then, this big mink has become very low-key and rarely appears in front of people.
However, everyone knows that Shi Deyi is currently one of the most powerful ministers in the palace.
Moreover, he was also the most trusted figure among the current officials and the Empress Dowager Baoci Palace.
Therefore, if this big Diao Dang suddenly came to the capital hall, something must have happened.
After a while, Shi Deyi was invited to the capital hall.
"In the words of the benevolent saints of the two palaces, I invite you all to follow me to the palace to discuss matters!"
As soon as Shi De entered the door, he got straight to the point and announced his mission.
Now, it's not just the officials who are confused.
The elders also looked at each other in shock, because Shi Deyi used the word "Qian Chen".
This means that even they are within the scope of being summoned.
Wen Yanbo couldn't help but ask: "If you ask me, you know, what happened?"
When Shi De looked at Wen Yanbo, he quickly bowed and said, "I am a member of the official family. I saw the disaster report reported on the Huainan Road. I felt the suffering of the people and the difficulty of livelihood, so I cried bitterly for the people of Huainan." Weeping, the Sacred Heart was greatly hurt, and the compassionate saints of the two palaces also cried together."
Everyone listened and felt only one thing - their scalp was numb!
Wen Yanbo was even more stunned. His eyes and Han Jiang's looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes - this is not the way of Zhao Guan's family at all!
No matter how you look at it, it looks like you are wearing the clothes of the old Liu family!
The next second, Wen Yanbo's political sensitivity came online on time, and his body nerves, even earlier than his brain, stood up in a swish. He was not as strong as an eighty-year-old man.
His eyes instantly turned red, and he burst into tears. He looked in the direction of Funing Palace, and knelt down with a bang: "The benevolence, saintliness, and virtue of an official are truly a blessing to the world and the country!"
Upon seeing this, the other elders and prime ministers quickly followed suit and bowed to the Funing Hall: "Your Majesty is benevolent, saintly, and virtuous. He is a blessing to the world and a blessing to the country!"
A quarter of an hour later, the prime ministers and elders were taken to Funing Hall.
At this time, the curtain has fallen in the palace.
Only the figures of the two palaces can be seen, sitting in them, but the officials are not there.
As it was an important matter for Pingzhang's military affairs, Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Lu Gongzhu looked at each other, and then led their ministers to step forward to salute and say hello.
Then, Wen Yanbo came forward and asked: "I heard that the official family was saddened by the disaster in Huainan. The old minister was bold enough to invite the benevolent saints of the two palaces and the ministers to pay homage to the official family."
Queen Mother Xiang, who was sitting in the curtain, replied in a slightly hoarse voice: "To be honest, Master, my son was just too sad and has already fallen asleep."
Wen Yanbo bowed again and said: "I would like to ask for your permission to allow me, the old minister, and others to come in and pay homage to the official holy face."
This is a necessary process.
The emperor was sad in the palace. Tired from crying, he fell asleep.
This is a one-sided statement from the two palaces, and these ministers must see it with their own eyes before they can rest assured.
What if - you, relying on the power of your servants, use this excuse to hide the emperor in the palace from now on, thus isolating China from the outside world?
Therefore, there should be no opportunity for people to take advantage of the loopholes from the very beginning.
This is the consciousness of the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty!
The world is a world governed by officials and us.
Anything that might threaten this matter should be nipped in the bud! Eliminated!
They won't give it to anyone but take advantage of it!
There was a little silence in the curtain, and the two palaces were obviously frightened by such a straightforward request.
However, this is indeed the power of the ruling elders.
After a long time, he said to the Empress Dowager: "The invitation given by the Grand Master is certainly appropriate."
"It's just my son's sleep. If too many people come in, they might disturb my son's sleep."
Wen Yanbo also knew that he should give face to the two palaces, so he immediately went down the ladder and said: "I risk my life, please be kind and gracious. I, the left minister, and the right minister will go in to pay homage to the emperor's holy face."
"Yes!" After deliberation, the two palaces in the curtain finally gave the answer.
Written by Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Lu Gong, thank you again.
Then, accompanied by Shi Deyi, Feng Jing and others, he bowed and entered the inner bedroom of Funing Hall through the small door on one side.
Upon entering the dormitory, the first thing Wen Yanbo and the two prime ministers saw was a giant map of Bianjing hanging on the wall of the dormitory.
There are many notes on the map, and each note seems to correspond to a neighborhood, a street, or a market.
The three of them quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look any further.
They were brought to the imperial couch, where they bowed down and bowed their heads four times (Wen Yanbo prayed three times) as the emperor and his ministers did. Then, daring to risk their own lives, they stood up and approached the imperial couch, and looked at the people sleeping on the imperial couch.
The emperor above.
The emperor's face was rosy and he was sleeping peacefully. There were only a few tears in the corners of his eyes.
So the three of them bowed and bowed again, saying: "I will wait until I die to offend you."
Then he retreated step by step.
The moment he exited the bed, Wen Yanbo caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of his eye.
It was his granddaughter Wen Xunniang, the shadow coming out from one side of the hall.
Wen Yanbo was immediately overjoyed.
Serve the emperor, and serve in the emperor's bed.
These are two concepts!
After leaving the bedchamber, Wen Yanbo and the two prime ministers came to the curtain and apologized: "I deserve to die, and I beg the two palaces to punish me."
The two palaces in the curtain will neither convict nor dare to convict.
The Empress Dowager said: "What crime did the three ministers commit?"
He also said to the Queen Mother: "The three ministers are so sincere. I and the Queen Mother deserve to be commended."
The three people hurriedly bowed again: "I don't dare."
After this, the other governors and elders all calmed down and understood the importance of this matter in their hearts.
Everyone knows this is a good thing!
The emperor was sad, cried, and even felt guilty and blamed himself for the Huainan victims.
What's this?
This is the journey of the Holy King!
It was a deed that moved the Song Dynasty even more!
When news of this incident reached Huainan, it was enough to comfort and stabilize the hungry and cold victims.
The emperor was sad for everyone and shed tears.
Even if the victims are hungry or shivering with cold, they should still be grateful.
When it comes to the court specifically, this matter is even more worthy of a special mention.
If there is a sage king, there must be famous ministers and virtuous ministers.
As long as you help the emperor calm down the disaster in Huainan.
This incident will definitely go down in national history, and may even become an allusion.
As a result, everyone's minds suddenly became active.
Especially Feng Jing was almost dumbfounded.
"How stupid I am!"
"Why didn't you think of a way to stay last year?"
I had only been back in Beijing for a few days, and I encountered such a good opportunity to build my reputation.
Moreover, it was created by Xiao Guanjia himself!
Feng Jing now finally understood why the two old guys Zhang Fangping and Sun Gu refused to go back to their hometowns and insisted on staying in Bianjing.
This is not just because the officials of the current dynasty treated the elders with great courtesy.
It is very likely that they will encounter such things often.
Every now and then, through the light of a small official family, I can appear on such occasions and participate in such historical events.
Just thinking like this, Feng Jing felt deeply that he had lost 100 million.
He swore that even if the emperor drove him away this time, he would not return to Luoyang.
Stay in Luoyang and be sent by Henan Prefecture. Whoever likes it can take it!
Anyway, he didn't want to go back.
With this mentality, Feng Jing sat upright.
At this time, the two palaces had ordered people to help Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Lu Gong, and helped the three people back to their seats.
Seeing Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Mr. Lu sitting down, the Empress Dowager in the curtain asked: "My dear ministers, please come and discuss this."
"Today, the officials read the memorials of Cai Bian, deputy envoy of the Sixth Route of Jianghuai and Jianghuai, and Song Yongchen, ambassador of Huainan River Control and Disaster Relief. They cried to me and the Queen Mother: The saintly virtues of our ancestors are as bright as the sun and the moon, and the saintly conduct of the late emperor,
It will last forever, and I dare not harm it at all."
"He also said that all parties are guilty, but I am the one to blame. I just hope that no one in Huainan will be harmed."
Having said this, the Empress Dowager also sighed softly in the curtain.
Empress Dowager Xiang thought of her child's appearance just now and couldn't help but sob softly.
That child is truly holy!
He also truly loves the people!
Upon seeing this, all the ministers stood up one after another and held fennel to apologize: "I am waiting for the death penalty... I beg the benevolent saints of the two palaces to punish me!"
Since ancient times, the Lord has humiliated his ministers and died, so naturally the Lord is worried about his ministers.
Today, the emperor is crying and sad for the people affected by the disaster.
The responsibility must lie with them, the rulers and elders.
The two palaces in the curtain did not answer their words. The Queen Mother just said to herself: "I and the Queen Mother are just women and know very little about world affairs."
"The public and other ministers are all members of the late emperor and important ministers of the country. They must have good strategies to solve this problem."
"I also ask you all, gentlemen, to speak freely and without any scruples."
All the officials listened and bowed in silence.
Even Wen Yanbo kept his mouth firmly shut.
This makes Feng Jing very strange.
He looked at Zhang Fangping standing next to him, and then knocked on Wen Yanbo in front.
Although it was a little strange, Feng Jing still did not suppress his inner impulse. He took a step forward and said: "I know that the two palaces are kind sages, and I have been to Mount Tai, so Sikong, and Han Wenzhonggong, who comforted Jingdong in the seventh year of Qingli."
There were 500,000 refugees, and many regulations and articles were written during this period, all of which were compiled into a book called "Qingzhou Zhenji Policy."
"The original manuscript is now in the hands of his son Shaoting. With the mercy of the saint, Shaoting can be recruited into the palace, which may be beneficial to Huainan affairs."
After listening to the two palaces in the curtain, they seemed to have a discussion, and then the Queen Mother said: "Good!"
"I would like to trouble Feng Qing to fetch this book and present it to the official family tomorrow."
Feng Jing was dumbfounded when he heard this.
Isn't that what the script is like?
Shouldn't he immediately send an envoy to his father-in-law's mansion in the capital to get the book?
Why wait until tomorrow?
Why did he go to get it?
Feng Jing didn't understand.
But soon, he understood.
Because at this moment, Wen Yanbo turned around and gave him a wink.
This look made Feng Jing very uneasy, and he quickly bowed his head to thank him.
Then, Feng Jing heard Zhang Fangping's voice.
"I learned that the two palaces were benevolent saints. The old minister was frightened and boldly thought that although today's emperor, Yuji, is only a few years old, he still has a holy heart and benevolence, just like the ancient kings; he is smart and decisive, and has the blessing of his ancestors; he loves the people like a son, and he has won
The Personal Teaching of the Two Saints."
"Now that your Majesty's holy heart is hurt by the disaster in Huainan and you sympathize with the suffering of the people, you will surely have grace to extend to Huainan."
"Old minister is guilty of death. I dare you to ask the Merciful Saint to be here. Waiting for Your Majesty to wake up, he will first send you a message of virtue and then make a decision."
As soon as Zhang Fangping finished speaking, Left Prime Minister Han Jiang had already bowed: "Old minister, I second the proposal."
Then came Zhang Hong, the minister Zuocheng: "I second the proposal."
"I second the proposal!" Li Qingchen, an official of the Privy Council, held the fluorene in his hand and bowed.
Deng Runfu, the right minister of Shangshu, followed closely: "I second the proposal."
The Right Prime Minister Lu Gong wrote it. After a while, Shi Shiran paid homage to the inspector again and said: "I second the proposal."
Therefore, Li Chang, the servant of the sect, An Tao, the Tongzhi Privy Councilor, and others began to stand in line.
Apparently, North Korea and China have quietly divided into two factions.
Leftists and rightists.
This is something Feng Jing could not discover in Henan Mansion.
On this issue, both factions of leaders agreed with Zhang Fangping's words.
what's the situation?
Feng Jing suddenly woke up, raised his head, looked at Zhang Fangping in front of him, and cursed secretly: "Old man!"
Why?
Because Feng Jing discovered that he seemed to have been tricked by Zhang Fangping.
Because of Zhang Fangping's words, he was put in an extremely embarrassing place - he had just asked the Cisheng of the Two Palaces to go to his father-in-law to ask for the "Qingzhou" which the father-in-law had summarized and written when he was doing disaster relief in Qingzhou. "Relief Policy" was used as a blueprint to preside over the relief of Huainan.
As a result, Zhang Fangping immediately jumped out and asked the two palaces to wait for the officials to wake up before requesting an order. Once the order was given, everyone would discuss how to do this in accordance with the officials' orders.
In other words, Zhang Fangping stepped on him and Feng Jingfeng acted as a loyal minister here!
If Zhang Fangping is a loyal minister, then who is he? A traitorous minister?
Feng Jing suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
Although he has never heard the saying "loyalty is not absolute, it is absolutely disloyal".
However, he was still aware of the sensitive and suspicious temperament of the Zhao officials.
If this offends that little official...
Feng Jing quickly shrank his neck and did not dare to speak again.
But there was one thing that he couldn't understand.
Today's officials are known all over the world for their intelligence, benevolence, saintliness, and generosity.
He has also heard of many deeds of this young emperor.
But the problem is...
This is disaster relief!
Moreover, it involves major disaster relief events in areas such as Huainan Road that are stuck at key nodes of the Grand Canal.
It's not like playing house in Bianjing City.
Are these ministers, senior ministers and ministers willing to follow the baton of the petty officials?
Aren't they afraid of something going wrong?
And Wen Yanbo, why didn’t he question it?
Wasn’t the lesson learned at Liuta River that year not enough?
The decisions made by the Zhao officials on the spur of the moment have killed so many people. Isn't that enough? Do you want to follow them and make nonsense?
Feng Jing had personal experience and participated in the Six Pagoda River debate.
He also watched with his own eyes, Ouyang Xiu and other ministers who opposed returning to the river argued hard in front of the emperor and even put forward a mathematical model - but it was ridiculous to try to accommodate the water of the big river with a narrow area of fifty steps. A man can open a three-foot square, which is doubled to six feet. The breadth and thickness are three feet and the length is six feet. The result of doubling the work is manpower and hard work. The six-foot square is calculated by the method of opening, which is eight feet. Is it possible to achieve twice the result with human effort? Therefore, the previous result is great but difficult to achieve, and the final result is small but unrealistic.
However, Renmiao refused to listen and the bastard chanted sutras.
He just insisted on going his own way and finally caused a catastrophe that continues to this day!
The Yellow River bursts its banks and roars into the Ergu River!
And today, although I am smart and handsome, I am afraid that I may not be that smart when it comes to disaster relief and disaster relief.
The evidence is - the late emperor also suffered a big fall on the Huihe River!
Xining returned to the river and made the same mistakes as the Liuta River again.
Hebei has still not recovered its vitality!
If the late emperor is like this, how much stronger can the little emperor taught by the late emperor be?
so……
What's the situation now?
Feng Jing really didn't understand.
How did he know that the elders and governors were willing to believe Zhao Xu and unanimously requested that they wait until he woke up and received instructions before discussing this matter.
There is a reason for this.
In the past year and a half, Zhao Xu has been extremely cooperative and willing to listen to opinions in the DPRK.
As long as he is present to listen to politics, no matter what the matter, he is willing to listen to different opinions and then invite everyone to discuss it.
Even when it was difficult to govern, the policy of nominating the prime minister and waiting for the recommendation of the ministers above was invented.
It pushed the national policy of the Song Dynasty and scholar-bureaucrats to govern the world to a new level!
On the contrary, the two palaces, especially the Empress Dowager, would sometimes act according to their own tempers and do things in their own way, which was really unkind to a scholar-bureaucrat!
Secondly, Zhao Xu has already made achievements in related aspects.
Last year, Hebei did a good job in desilting and achieved remarkable results.
Especially in the east flow channel, after cleaning, the Yellow River has been quiet this year - although this is related to the decrease in precipitation in the upper reaches.
But results are results!
And this year, Song Yongchen once again took command and led his troops south to provide disaster relief, and also achieved results.
It only took two million yuan to basically stabilize Huainan, especially the artery of the Grand Canal.
The emperor was willing to listen to advice and was particularly willing to seek opinions and suggestions from professionals and let them do professional things.
At the same time, he has achievements in this area.
If you don’t invite him out, will you be here to listen to the two palaces making decisions?
The Liuta River back then almost wiped out the Song Dynasty!
Neither the prime minister nor the elders wanted to do it again.
But Feng Jing only entered Beijing in mid-July, so how did he know about these things?
Fortunately, when Wen Yanbo saw his appearance, he quietly reminded him: "In this world, if you want to stay in the court, you should talk less and do more in the future."
Not like others.
Wen Yanbo felt something was wrong from the beginning!
He now seriously suspected that the officials of the current dynasty were wearing the clothes of the old Liu family, and they were also the clothes of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Taizong of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty.
Especially today, this scene makes me cry.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like the foundation of Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty.
However, Wen Yanbo buried this matter in his heart and took it to the coffin.
