Zhao Zhen misjudged the patience of his ministers. In the past few days, the whole court was filled with people handing out notes stating the disadvantages of restoring the six rates. There were no advantages at all, only disadvantages.
Zhao Zhen also misjudged the rogues of this group of people who rely on their words. Even if you keep it in vain, you will still hand it over the next day... anyway, you will use public pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Originally it was just a matter for the Yushitai, but in the end, almost all the ministers and officials in the entire court were handed in. The only purpose was to restore the crown prince's six-year rate.
You don’t have anything else to do, so you just cling to this thing?
Zhao Zhen suspected that the princes were conniving at it, and even instigating it. It had been a few days, and none of them, including the Eastern and Western Prefectures and the Censor Zhongcheng, had said anything, just watching the joke.
Even if Zhao Zhen left one by one to report to each other, or summoned them together to report to each other, as long as the matter of Six Rates was mentioned, he would always consider the left and right, and would not give an accurate answer at all.
There is no support or opposition, just don't mention it.
Zhao Zhen was helpless. How many times had he worn himself out like this and then let it go? This time, I'm afraid it would be the same result.
His biggest mistake was that he forgot that he could not bargain with his husband, or even talk about Zhang Wei.
That would not only disgrace Shilin, but also the disgrace of the country...
Because this matter made a big fuss.
It was the Du Yuhou of the Xiang Army who led the one or two thousand Xiang Army who made trouble at the post station, which can also be said to be the rebels of the Maitreya Sect. Now they have gone through many twists and turns, crossing the Yellow River, walking through Lu'an, and crossing the Taihang Mountains, all the way to Hebei Bei
The state began to raise the banner of rebellion blatantly.
Zhao Zhen didn't even know how his own dynasty had become a sieve. It wasn't just one or two, but one or two thousand. Just like this, from Jingxi Road, to Hedong Road, and then to Jingdong Road, he was safe all the way.
Even ghosts don’t believe it if local officials didn’t release the water!
Didn’t it mean that the Maitreya religion only became popular in Shu? Didn’t it mean that there was only a small presence in Hebei? Now... the entire so-called small presence has gathered tens of thousands of people and directly occupied Beizhou.
But in the court, they didn't care about the rebels, but they were still holding on to a six-year-old man!
This group of scholars who misled the country could do this, but he couldn't. He was the master of the country and could not ignore this matter.
Even though Fu Bi and Fu Yan were appointed to Hebei Province, they gave him many discounts to reassure him. But just like this, how could he feel at ease?
Could it be that the Liuli issue was just settled like this? Zhao Zhen was unwilling to give in. He also encouraged himself, wait, until the chaos in Beizhou was settled, he would still have to raise it.
Just such a son, but still a son with the qualifications of an eternal emperor. His safety is really related to the country.
The Beizhou rebellion came at the right time. If it hadn't happened, the whole court and His Majesty would have really been in trouble because of the Liuli issue.
That's great! If it weren't for the identity issue, they would all want to be grateful to the rebels, and it's time for the chaos.
As for rebels and scabies, no one takes them seriously.
Han Zhigui trained troops in Hebei and reorganized the army, which has initially achieved results. Now that Fu Yanguo is in Hebei, and Wen Kuanfu is present, the rebellion in Beizhou will not expand.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the group of bandits we defeated at Hulaoguan Station are causing trouble in Beizhou, Hebei."
Uh... Wang Zhongzheng's words stunned Zhao Xi. How is that possible?
How far is it from Jingxi Road to Beizhou, Hebei? How can one or two thousand get there?
"Where did the gossip come from?"
"Your Majesty, what Zhongzheng said is true. Xiao Zeng asked himself to go out to supervise the army in Hebei. And the person who raised the flag was Wang Ze, who happened to be Yuhou, the capital of the Xiang army who attacked the inn that night as discovered by the Imperial City Division."
After Li Xian came back from worshiping his ancestors, he was assigned to Zhao Xi by the officials. But he always wanted to make contributions, so he kept colluding with the Imperial City Division.
Sigh...Dad, you are just backing me like this. Now you don’t care about the crown prince’s success, right? Even the appointment of the heir apparent has to be postponed.
As for making trouble, Zhao Xi seems not to remember any successful rebellions in the Song Dynasty.
It is said that the image of Shui Po Liangshan is a fabrication, and there is also Fang La, also at the back.
Wang Ze... Oh, by the way. Suddenly the contents of the history textbook flashed through Zhao Xi's mind. He clearly remembered that in the end it was a minister named Wen Yanbo who dug tunnels to destroy the city...
"Zifan, you are still young, and there is still a long way to go. Now that the country is surrounded by enemies, you will have the opportunity to make contributions. Don't be anxious!"
When Zhao Xi talks to these two people, he often doesn't take it into consideration, and occasionally makes a few remarks about future generations.
"Your Majesty, I also want to go out."
Although it was good to follow the prince, if he could go out and fight a few battles, and finally be appointed as an escort to the Jiedushi Guangzong Yaozu... He also thought about it.
Yes! Everyone wants to make contributions, isn’t it time for you to show off your skills?
Dad came to my mother again to seek comfort.
Zhao Xi sometimes wanted to insult his father. When he was in a good mood, he would go to Mrs. Zhang or other young people. When he had troubles, he would come to the queen to take out the trash.
"Xi'er, I might not be able to do this at Liusu."
Oh, it turns out I was apologizing to myself. That's it...should I have made the decision?
"Dad, Liusu has been related to palace chaos since ancient times. There are fathers and sons who fight each other, and there are brothers who fight against each other. It is common for them to fight against each other."
"Among them are the problems between the emperor and the prince, the accumulation of conflicts between Qiandi's old ministers and the princes in the court, and the reasons why the children of various clans are close to Qiandi."
"To put it bluntly, it was just a matter of interests. The imperial dynasty abandoned the old system of subordinate officials and six rates out of this consideration to avoid internal strife."
"The prince's sixth rate, with a scale of 20,000 to 30,000, is indeed a great hidden danger in the capital. This will breed more thoughts among the scholars. This is the fundamental reason for the opposition of the princes in the court."
He paused to let his parents digest his first speech on political affairs, and also let his parents taste what he said.
It’s not too shocking, there is no such conclusion in the classics, but from Zhao Xi’s reading, the whole history is just one word: profit!
"Xi'er, do you have any good ideas?"
It seems that my parents are not surprised by what I said.
"Father, mother, my child has been thinking about it for the past few days. My child thinks that there is no need to restore the old six-rate system, or to put it another way."
"First, the so-called six-rate soldiers can be reduced. I think 10% is enough. Second, I think that when preparing to build the East Palace Guards Military Palace, we can set up assistant officers as civilians in the army, and implement a rotation system, every three years
Replaced."
"As for the rank, it doesn't have to involve the specific rank, it can only be used as a dispatch. Name... I think it can be called teaching."
"From now on, the scholars will naturally focus on how to obtain teaching positions, and will not unanimously discuss the restoration of the old system of six rates."
"Also, daddy, if this agreement can come true, I want to choose the soldiers myself..."
That's the general idea, unfinished business...
"Xi'er, can you elaborate on this?"
After all, dad is an emperor, and there are some things that dad can't figure out. It's good, I can explain it clearly this way.
