...There was a person in the imperial dynasty who had Xing Shuhe, Xing Shuhe, who had studied with Zhang Zaiguan as early as possible. Later, Zhang Zihou was too obsessed with studying and was unable to hold office, so Xing Shuhe turned to Ercheng's Neo-Confucianism and became a disciple of Neo-Confucianism.
However, Er Cheng formed a school of his own, but it failed to gain traction and failed to become an official school for a long time.
Wang Jiefu, Duke of Jing, admired his talents and devoted himself to teaching new learning, thinking that Xing Shu was his right arm. However, when the court held a debate on scriptures, Xing Shu turned back and was regarded as a disciple by Sima Yongshu.
At this point, Xing Shu went out and took charge of Yanling, a county of herdsmen. The imperial court implemented new laws such as the Green Miao Law and the Municipal Yi Law. Although Sima Yongshu strongly opposed it in the court, after the court's review and judgment, it was finally implemented in the country.
Shu was in charge of Yanling, and he regarded the new law of the imperial court as Guigao. He vigorously implemented the new law in the area where he was in charge. He was rated high in the exams over the years, and based on his merits, he was promoted to Zuolang and Huaizhou Tongpan.
With Xing Shuhe's qualifications, it is natural for him to be selected into the imperial council, and even appointed to discuss politics. This is a model for the imperial court to let things go by the way...
Zhao Xi couldn't help but praise this article.
There is no word that belittles Xing Shu in the whole article, and even praises Xing Shu's ability to govern...
But in today's dynasty and today's scholarly environment, where human character is valued more than the sky, this is simply an insulting article about the capriciousness of punishment and punishment.
This is not the key point. The key point is that this article begins to discuss politics with examples and involves all the important officials in the court... This is obviously a rhythm that wants to attract the ministers to the court.
This should be regarded as the explosive point of ignition, right?
Sure enough, Sima Guang couldn't hold it back in the first place.
Sima Guang signed the article and it was published in Shi Lun.
Sima Guang said, Confucius and the sages all said that there is no distinction between teachings, and Sima Guang's teaching of punishment and Shu was only about knowledge, not character.
When selecting officials in the imperial court, one should first focus on virtue and then make use of their talents. Promotion of punishment, punishment, and promotion is the result of the examination by the Ministry of Civil Affairs and has nothing to do with the subject of study...
In fact, Sima Guang didn't make it clear and his position was not clear. He wanted to draw a clear line with Xing Shu, but he didn't really like to do this kind of thing that would add insult to injury.
It was his inexplicable article that started a discussion among the people about whether the imperial court should emphasize virtue or talent when employing people. It also started the writing of too many articles that used examples to prove their opinions.
Ever since, the drama has begun...
As the biggest stage of this drama... "Shi Lun" removed the stage in time and did not publish another article on political affairs. It began to serially publish the explanation of the three-level decision-making system and the reform of the official system, and it was still to the emperor of the dynasty.
Published by invitation.
Because the officials had said that not everyone could participate in some plays. The Empress informed her family as soon as possible.
In fact, anyone with some sense of consciousness can understand that the political discussions at this time have reached the stage where the storm is about to come, or the storm has already arrived.
This in itself is a speculative act. When there were rumors in the court about rectifying the reporting industry, people with ideas finally couldn't bear it anymore. If they want to get stuck in the official system reform and compete for a higher position, they only have a short time...~
Originally, it was for court meetings, political affairs and cabinet positions...~ It is said that cabinet positions are a bit big. Since it is a competition for positions, there must be someone who is qualified and can be ranked.
It is estimated that the reason why I did not go into battle shirtless at the beginning was because of the issue of qualifications... After all, they are all well-known ministers.
After such a long period of so-called debate, the firewood has been set up and the fire has been lit. As for who to burn...it depends on everyone's ability.
At the beginning, even if it was criticism, there was still a certain degree of restraint. Just like the impeachment in the previous court meetings, he talked about some past events and compared his current position, so as to explain the precedent of the court not to blame the past...~The court is allowed to make mistakes.
Then excerpt some provisions of the supervision regulations, compare the behavior, and comment on what punishments should be imposed based on the current supervision regulations.
Finally, he asked implicitly: Is there really no one available in the Song Dynasty? Is it really necessary to let such an official with a bad record of misdeeds occupy the court?
These articles are basically concentrated in the middle level of the Six Ministries and Nine Ministers, the chief officials of Xiazhou and Shangxian, who are basically qualified to enter the court.
A lot, very messy, very vivid, very real.
"Your Majesty, does the Ombudsman need to intervene?"
Even Fan Chunren couldn't hold it in anymore. He felt that the whole court was like mud and there was no good person!
This made Fan Chunren very disappointed and confused. In the end, he could not restrain his anger. He was not angry about this mess, but because he believed that the case exposed at this time was probably true.
That’s why I wanted to let the officials take back their orders and get the supervisory office to intervene...
"Yao Fu, let's not say whether these articles are true or not. Even if they are all true, will the Supervisory Yamen have the energy to thoroughly investigate them all?"
"Officials and supervisors do not hesitate to take the trouble!"
"Don't worry! Let's just say that the censors don't care about being overworked, but the government won't punish nearly half of the state and county officials, right? Officials make mistakes first, and regulations are promulgated later. Use regulations issued later to punish previous mistakes.
This in itself is a fallacy.”
"The most important thing is the credibility of the court. The court must not have edicts that are changed overnight! Supervising the yamen's responsibilities, investigating and punishing officials is one aspect. The most important thing is to supervise the court officials to establish the credibility of the court among the people!"
"Punishment is not the purpose, the purpose is to regulate behavior, to clear up the entire court, and to ensure that the court moves forward on the normal track!"
"However, the supervisory yamen can record the facts of the case exposed this time and focus on supervision in subsequent work."
Fan Chunren's integrity is enough for Zhao Xi to be honest with him.
Being unable to change Fan Zhongyan's fate has always been a regret in Zhao Xi's heart, and it is a pain that is difficult to let go. Especially when he saw that Mr. Fan's son was so loyal, the pain became clearer... But at that time, he was too
It's too small to control.
Fan Chunren is a gentleman, but he is not stupid at all. He understands the government's entrustment very well...
Those who can understand Zhao Xi are those who are increasingly unscrupulous in retaliating...
When Zhao Xi saw the arrival report and started to say that Lu Jiawen stole his uncle's memorial and flattered his benefactor Wang Anshi, Zhao Xi knew that there was no bottom line.
There is really no bottom line. The current situation reminds Zhao Xi of the gossip of future generations...~
These reports have completely broken away from the scope of the three-level decision-making system and official reform, and have begun to use sensationalism to attract readers and increase sales.
Zhao Xi saw someone writing in the arrival newspaper about Su Shi acquiring a concubine. The concubine was pregnant and gave birth to a son without knowing who the father was...～
Su Shi is already like this, is it really necessary? He has been reduced from being qualified to discuss politics to only having a seat in the court meeting...
But when Zhao Xi saw someone writing in the arrival newspaper, Zhang Dun stole his father's concubine...
When I saw someone writing about Ouyang Xiu and his niece...~
When I saw someone writing a story about Sima Guang peeling walnuts when he was a child, it was about integrity...
Zhao Xi knew that this was a complete chaos, a truly uncontrollable chaos.
However, is it troublesome for the Ministry of Rites to introduce an arrival report approval system?
