Early the next morning, Zhao Xin had just woken up, finished drinking breakfast milk, and was about to bask in the sun happily. Gan Zhaoji came to report in a panic: "The Duke of the State, the Third Secretary of the State and the Tongzhi Privy Councilor Yan Tongshu and his right It's true that Fu Yanguo of the Admonition Academy is here to ask for an audience!" "Yan Shu?" Zhao Xin opened his eyes, full of surprise: "Why is he here?"
He had never met Yan Shu in his previous life, only his son Yan Jidao.
However, Yan Shu's famous name will be heard even in later generations.
Even ordinary people can recite the phrase "There is no choice but the flowers fall away, and the familiar swallows return".
But in contemporary times, Yan is not most famous for his poems, songs and articles.
Just like Fan Zhongyan's most famous thing is not his articles, but the nickname "Little Fan Laozi" given to him by the Western thieves.
What Yan Shu is most famous for is his temper!
Who in the entire Song Dynasty, and even in the Liao Kingdom, didn't know that Uncle Yan Tong was a powder keg that could be ignited at a moment's notice?
I think back then, in front of the Empress Dowager Zhang Xianmingsu, the third envoy broke several teeth of a favored minister of the Empress Dowager Liu!
Although Yan Shu has greatly restrained his temper now, it is difficult to change one's nature.
This Third Secretary is not someone to be trifled with.
After thinking about it, Zhao Xin ordered: "Please come quickly... No, I have to go out in person to greet you!"
So, he asked Liu Yongnian to help him up, and he was dressed neatly under the service of the palace servants. Then Liu Yongnian led him out of the Chunfang Pavilion and to the entrance of the square.
"The three envoys and ministers also know that the Privy Council has special affairs..."
"I am right to tell you that the admonishment court has judged Liu Neiquanbi..."
"Meet the Duke..."
The moment they saw Zhao Xin, Yan Shu and Fu Bi immediately stepped forward to pay homage in fear.
"You two beloved ladies, please excuse yourself..." Zhao Xin quickly asked someone to help them up: "Please come in and talk..."
"The Duke of the country is virtuous, and I will be grateful to you!" Yan Shu hurriedly pulled Fu Bi to thank him again, then he dared to get up, stepped aside, and then followed Zhao Xin respectfully, and entered the spring together. Square.
Arriving at the inner hall of Chunfang, Zhao Xin was hugged by Liu Yongnian and sat on the bed. Then he ordered those around him: "Hurry up and give a seat to the governor and Zhengyan!"
So, two chairs were placed in front of Zhao Xin's bed, and Yan Shu and Fu Bi were immediately invited to the chairs by Liu Yongnian.
But the two people did not sit down, but looked frightened.
Fu Bi, in particular, stepped forward and kowtowed with great ceremony and said: "I am guilty, and I have no face to see the holy face of the Duke. I thought about everything but did not report it, so I did not dare to hang my seal. I came here shamelessly to beg the Duke." Punish him!"
Yan Shu also bowed slightly and said: "The old minister is old and stupid, and cannot correct the family tradition. As a result, the rich Yanguo's words and deeds are inappropriate, which undermines the Duke's plans. He is guilty, guilty, and I beg the Duke to punish him!"
When Zhao Xin heard this, his face became serious.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, because Zhao Kuangyin's founding edict said, "Convert the family into the country, Hong En should be transferred to Huan District."
As a result, the family, the country, and the world are integrated into one.
Through this, the scholar-bureaucrats were able to repeatedly interfere in the emperor's family affairs, intervene in palace disputes, and even participate in the dethronement of the crown prince.
However, the effects of forces are reciprocal.
Scholar-officials could interfere in the king's family affairs, and the king could also deny the scholar-officials' family affairs.
Strict family rules, disrespectful family tradition, and improper family education are all stains for ministers.
As a result, family tradition is no longer just a matter of personal morality, but has been elevated to the level of public morality and even official qualifications.
"What happened?" Zhao Xin asked.
Fu Bi then stepped forward and bowed his head and said: "I am a scoundrel and have leaked the secrets of the government to the outside world. I feel deeply guilty and have no face to go to the government again..."
Then he carefully told Zhao Xin what happened yesterday, when he asked Zhao Xin to run a tabloid but accidentally told Yan Shu and Yang Cha.
Yan Shu also bowed deeply to apologize.
After hearing this, Zhao Xin naturally felt a little dissatisfied.
But there was a warm look on his face. He smiled slightly and said, "What do you think it's about?"
"It's such a small matter. Zhengyan doesn't have to be so scared. Please get up quickly..."
He smiled and said to Yan Shu: "The provincial governor is a hero of the country. He has always been highly virtuous and highly respected. I am my father-in-law. I can't bear such a great gift from the provincial governor, so I'd better avoid it as soon as possible..."
He also told Liu Yongnian and Gan Zhaoji: "Liu Qing, Gan Qing, quickly help these two ministers to be alone!"
After Liu Yongnian and Gan Zhaoji helped Yan Shu and Fu Bi up and sat on the chairs, Zhao Xin continued with a smile: "In the future, if it is such a trivial matter, please speak up to the provincial governor and don't do it again.
So solemnly..."
Listening to this, Fu Bi really felt like a spring breeze. He felt that he had really met the Holy Lord of Mingzhu. He just wanted to go through fire and water for Zhao Xin.
But in Yan Shu's ears, it was a different feeling.
Since becoming a Jinshi at the age of fourteen, Yan Shu has been an official for almost forty years.
Throughout the history of Zhenzong, Empress Dowager Zhang Xianmingsu and the current officials, they have experienced countless turmoils and struggles, and witnessed countless swords and swords.
Therefore, Yan Shu has understood a truth - your mouth is a liar!
Even today's officials are like this.
What's more, the person in front of me now is a sage king known both inside and outside the country. He is said to be like the Gao Xin clan, who is "clever enough to know the far distance and wise enough to detect the subtle things." He once sat in Chunfang, Bianjing, strategizing and deciding on matters along the way.
How could you be deceived by his appearance and age?
It should be treated as an adult prince. In this way, the perspective and experience will be completely different.
Anyway, at this moment, Yan Shu's heart was filled with trepidation, caution, and caution.
Because the image of the young prince in his eyes was not the cute and innocent child carved in pink and jade that he saw, but a man wearing a crown, sitting upright, with twelve layers of beads, and palms.
A monarch who takes life and death and speaks the constitution of heaven!
What's more, he has experienced hardships and ups and downs in his life.
Back then, when Zhenzong saw him, with just one word, he made him fly to the heavens and became a world-famous child prodigy, which laid the foundation for his career.
Then, with one word from the Empress Dowager Zhang Xianmingsu, he was dismissed from his post as magistrate of the state.
Therefore, Yan Shu has a deep understanding of what is meant by "if you use it, you become a dragon; if you don't use it, you become an insect."
Therefore, Yan Shu carefully chose his words and said: "In this matter, the Duke of the country is indeed holy and virtuous, but the old minister dare not be presumptuous. When he returns, he will definitely teach You Zhengyan well, so that he knows the way of being a minister and abides by the minister's duties."
I will definitely not dare to do it again in the future..."
"The provincial governor's words are serious... His words are serious..." Zhao Xin laughed. When the two-year-old child showed his face, his smile was enough to melt the ice: "The only person who can speak the right words is the only one who knows, and the provincial governor also knows that the future of this country will be
His ministers are also the pillars of the country..."
"Don't be too harsh, give more opportunities for trial and error..."
"It's like a cedar, which can be made into a material without being exposed to wind and snow. It's also like a beautiful jade, which can't be considered beautiful without being carved."
"Therefore, when the king used people, they used their abilities and eliminated their shortcomings..."
These words presented two completely different experiences in the ears of Fu Bi and Yan Shu.
Fu Bi felt as if he was bathing in the warm spring breeze, and his body, mind and soul were infected.
Yan Shu, on the other hand, seemed to be in the cold winter, with no trace of his body, surrounded by ice and snow, and his soul was about to be frozen!
Because he heard the warning and beating hidden in the Duke's words.
If you do it again next time, you will really be beaten like a cedar in the wind and snow, and like a rough jade, carved by craftsmen.
And where in Song Dynasty is suitable for doing this kind of thing?
Lingnan Leizhou!
The last person who traveled to Leizhou was named Ding Wei!
