Chapter 339: Autumn Comes and Spring Comes Early (Part 1)
The next day, Wang Anli and Wang Yu's uncle and nephew were invited to the house as guests.
With Wang Yu's cold and noble character, he would never bow his head and admit his mistakes. Being able to come to Chen Ke's house was already his limit.
Fortunately, Chen Ke acted as if nothing had happened and still talked to him very cordially.
Wang Yu knew that he was saving face for himself, and he was grateful, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he took the initiative to ask: "I heard that Brother Zhong Fang has been in some trouble recently?"
"It's true that good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles." Chen Ke smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, it has been a bad year and I have become the target of public criticism."
"Then what are your plans?"
"We are preparing to present the memorial to others." Chen Ke sighed and said, "Leave Bianjing, a place of right and wrong."
"Absolutely not." From the bottom of his heart, Wang Yu really wanted Chen Ke to get away as far as he could, but now the enemy was too strong, and Chen Ke needed to attract firepower from the front. If Chen Ke left, they would either ignore Zhao Zongji, or they would have to
He walked up to the stage and faced Zhao Zongshi's attack.
Neither Wang Anshi nor Sima Guang had established a firm foothold in the court, so they were really no match for Zhao Zongshi!
Wang Yu hurriedly said: "You must not leave Beijing at this time, otherwise the young prince will be dead!"
"It's not that serious, right?" Chen Ke smiled and said, "With you, father and son, and brother Jun Shi in the capital, I have nothing to worry about."
"The officials don't appreciate my father, but Sima Shishu is at a low point." Wang Yu sighed and said, "He is really not strong enough."
"That's it..." Chen Ke muttered: "Do you have any good ideas?"
"It's not really a problem." Wang Yu said in a deep voice, "It just depends on whether you have the courage."
"Tell me about it?" Chen Ke said with a smile.
"Get someone to play for you." Wang Zhuo said quietly: "If you say your number one scholar came from the official family through the back door, then it will be fine."
"Oh..." Chen Ke was not surprised at all about "Heroes see the same thing", because this guy is the best conspirator.
"Brother Zhong Fang, don't get me wrong." Wang Yu quickly explained: "Now everyone knows how knowledgeable you are. A bullet will not affect your reputation at all. It will also make the officials have to protect you."
"What a great idea." Chen Ke nodded and praised, "Yuanze is really smart!"
"It's not that exaggerated." Seeing that Chen Ke had adopted his suggestion, Wang Yu had a smile on his face.
"I have one more thing to ask." Chen Ke struck while the railway was hot.
"Please speak." Wang Yu nodded.
Chen Ke then briefly stated his concerns about Zhao Yunrang's possible actions.
"I don't think we should worry too much." Wang Yu shook his head and said: "The official is only fifty years old. It's crazy to say that he still has more than ten years of life, right?" This guy really dares to say,
Fortunately, Chen Ke's study has the strictest confidentiality measures. There is no risk of being eavesdropped.
Chen Ke nodded and motioned for him to continue. Then Wang Yu said: "You underestimated the official family, or overestimated the official family."
"how to say?"
"The official has been the emperor for forty years, and he did not take charge until he was almost thirty years old. He must be very clear that although the emperor's position is supreme, it is still possible for his power to be taken away." Wang Yu said quietly: "I
I don’t believe in the officialdom and would like to have another reign title like ‘Tian Sheng’ or ‘Ming Dao’.”
The "Heavenly Sage" is the two saints. The "Mingdao" is the sun and the moon shining together. They are all symbols of Liu E's regency era.
"..." Chen Ke nodded silently. This was also his judgment.
"So, I think that even if the officials want to determine the heir, they will delay it as much as possible." Wang Yu said: "If you establish a prince early, have you forgotten what Emperor Taizong said?"
After Zhenzong was established as the prince, he was cheered by his subjects. Zhao Guangyi could not accept it, and he said jealously: "If the hearts of the people belong to the prince, where will they put me?" He is still his biological son! But now Zhao Zongshi is just a human being.
Just a nephew!
"But we still have to remind the officials," Wang Yu said again: "Otherwise, if we are not prepared, we will be caught by those ministers if we speak in a hurry!"
"Yes." Chen Ke nodded and said, "But how to remind me?"
"We can't say it openly. No one will leak this kind of thing in advance, and the Imperial City Department has nowhere to investigate." Wang Yu stood up and walked twice with his hands behind his back and said: "And once Zhao Yunjang detects it, he will just cancel the plan.
This will prove my son's innocence, and even the officials' suspicions about him for many years will be wiped away. But we lost my wife and lost our troops."
"Yeah." Chen Ke nodded.
"I want to come up with a clever way, without revealing it, but it will make the officials think." Wang Yu murmured, his eyes lit up as he spoke, and he clapped his hands and said: "I heard that the officials are obsessed with listening to operas recently.
!”
"Yes." Chen Ke nodded and said, "Since the last incident, officials have often watched dramas to relieve their worries, but they have been restrained."
"The theater troupe in the palace must be able to sing the play "The Golden Chamber", right?"
"Of course," Chen Ke nodded. That was the fig leaf of the Zhao family.
"Do you think you can let the officials watch the play again as soon as possible?"
"Is this..." Chen Ke estimated that this matter would not be difficult for Zhao Zongji. Of course, he couldn't say it to death: "I'll give it a try."
"It's best to see this show before the officials decide to go to the Runan Palace!" Wang Yu didn't believe that he couldn't do it: "As long as we can do it, we will have a good show!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the same time, Chen Ke's defense papers for various impeachments were also sent to Zhao Zhen.
Regarding the impeachment of his collusion with businessmen, Chen Ke said that before he became an official, he did run some businesses, which was well known to the whole court. However, since becoming a Jinshi, he has already transferred all his business to his former partners.
There is no longer any business under the name of myself and my family. Regarding this, Kaifeng Mansion has archives, and it will be clear at a glance as long as you check it.
Chen Ke was even more angry that he denied the "Shang Shu" and was a heretic. He said that I was not denying the "Shang Shu", but only proved that what was circulated was a forgery written by Wang Su.
Still saying that it is the true scripture leads students astray. This is heresy and harms the way!
He expressed his willingness to publish a "Research on Shangshu Apocrypha" at his own expense and ask scholars all over the world to judge. If anyone can prove him wrong, he is willing to punish Shao Zhengmao!
Chen Ke was even more depressed about the impeachment of his ambiguous relationship with Princess Dali. The status of women in Dali was high, and the King of Dian lacked helpers. His sister was the one who came forward for everything. If I was just to protect men and women, I would avoid it.
If you don't see it, wouldn't you miss the important affairs of the country? Do you have to lose the great justice because of a trivial matter in order for the censors to be satisfied?
There was also the one who accused him of neglecting his duties and neglecting the Wushu Academy! Chen Ke was even more furious! Three years after the Wushu Academy was opened, it was declining step by step. It was getting worse and worse. Whose credit was it? When the Wushu Academy was beaten to death
, where have all the officials gone?
If you had not been able to receive a salary for half a year and had no food to eat, would you continue to wait for death in the martial arts academy? If the money and food were not available, and the teachers and students were in dire straits, what kind of courses would be offered?
Finally, Chen Ke cried and cried, asking the officials to urge Yousi to save the loyal people of the martial arts academy! Otherwise, if the country has trouble in the future, who is willing to work hard for the Song Dynasty?!
Chen Ke's literary talent is excellent, and he turned his full grievances into a two thousand-word memorial. The image of a loyal minister who did great things without sacrificing his own life, but was slandered by villains, emerged vividly on the page.
After Zhao Zhen read it, he slammed the table and sneered: "Okay, okay..." and then asked the eunuch to find Mr. Zeng.
After a while, Zeng Gongliang came to see him.
Zhao Zhen let him read Chen Ke's memorial, and Zeng Gongliang felt sad at first... These days, under the planning of some people, a group of officials attacked Chen Ke in groups, hoping to bring him down and make him disgraceful.
, and he vowed not to give up. He wanted to say a few good words to Chen Ke. However, the Yanguan of the Song Dynasty was a group of mad dogs who became more and more excited as their opponents got stronger. For fear of doing bad things with good intentions, he had to keep his mouth shut.
When he saw the end, his expression changed, and he lost his voice and said, "It's impossible. When he came to see me more than a month ago, Wei Chen gave me the approval!"
"Even the approval documents from the Privy Council are useless." Zhao Zhen said with a dark face: "Who has the final say in this Song Dynasty?"
"Wei Chen will investigate thoroughly now." Zeng Gongliang stood up and said.
"I finally understand that it's useless to treat a headache and a foot pain." Zhao Zhen shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Some people just want to squeeze the martial arts academy to death!" He slapped the table heavily and said:
"They are so cruel!"
Zeng Gongliang rarely saw such an outburst among officials, but after thinking about it, he understood. You must know that establishing the Royal Martial Arts Academy is in the interests of the Song Dynasty and the Zhao family, but it will make civilian officials uneasy. They are worried about the status of military generals.
Promotion will affect their interests... Although it's hard to say how big the impact will be yet. But out of instinctive disgust, they will still try their best to prevent the emergence of the martial arts academy.
Now Zhao Zhen has clearly felt the resistance of the civil servants, and believes that this is a manifestation of their selfishness and disregard for the country.
However...Zeng Gongliang was also like this. His heart sank and he gritted his teeth and said: "It can be seen that the status of the martial arts academy must be truly improved!"
Zhao Zhen glanced at him with some surprise, nodded approvingly and said: "Yes, just a 'Royal' brand is useless, you have to have something real!" After saying that, he asked people to find out what Zeng Gongliang was wearing last month.
Zha Zi approved the red letter from behind and handed it to him and said: "You go to Mr. Fu to decide this matter. There is no need to go to the court to discuss it!"
Zeng Gongliang took it with both hands, and saw that on the cover of the manuscript, it was written: "Please imitate the official teachings and reform the martial arts notes"!
