Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1475
General Shen's Northern Expedition to the Jie Kingdom, killing the rebellious traitors, the day of success, the universe is naturally jubilant.

But different from the common people who are simply happy when they hear the achievements, the people in the current situation, apart from the heartfelt honor, soon realized that the world has advanced to this point, and the national destiny has entered a very delicate stage. situation.How the future will develop, although everyone already has a general understanding in the bottom of their hearts, but how to enter the next stage in detail still makes people dare not relax.

It was Shen Chong who really brought the first wave of thrust to the advancement of the world.

General Shen's meritorious service as the king of Liang is indeed what everyone expects.In addition, in the Taicheng edict, there are also conferments for other important members of the Shen family. For example, Shen Chong confers Wu Guogong and Taifu, which can be described as extremely honorable.

But Shen Chong directly rejected this honor. Not only that, but also resigned the conferments of other members of the Shen family. Inside and outside the territory, the governor led the Northern Expedition, and on the day of success, he will be rewarded of course.But the rest of the Shen clan, including Shen Chong, just raised them up and enjoyed their achievements, and they really didn't dare to invite extraordinary conferments, forcing them to be the beginning of disorderly rituals.

With this, Shen Chong refused to accept the great honor in the stage, which led to a new topic, that is, he is not the only one who is really honored, but there is also a more outstanding and superior candidate.

"Shen Chong seems to be respectful, but in fact he slanders me, and his virtue is not worthy. He can no longer bear his son's bowing down."

As he grows older, the emperor is no longer the ignorant young man of the past. He knows the meaning of elegance when he hears the string songs, and he is very clear about Shen Chong's thoughts.

Whether it was his brother-in-law Shen Weizhou who ordered the immediate execution of Shi Hu, the host of the Capricornus, in Hebei instead of leaving it to him, the emperor, or Shen Chongyan's accusation that the imperial edict of Taicheng was chaotic, it means that the Shen family has already begun the last step of gaining momentum. across.

In this regard, the emperor was actually not so depressed and disappointed.Although he has been a king for a long time, he has never been able to enjoy the sweetness of power brought by the supreme being in the world.

Of course, it is impossible to say that there is no resentment, but the emperor also understands that this is no longer something he can control. Regarding the expansion of the Xingtai and the emptying of the Jiangdong court, he can only watch the changes.

As an emperor, as he grows older, he naturally occasionally has his own ambitions, but the reality tells him cruelly that even if he has any ideas that benefit the country and the people, it is best to put them away. Not asking about everything is the greatest kindness he can show to this world.

And any attempt to make a difference will only make the world retreat to the previous chaos again, interrupt the progress of the world, and make the people in the north and south continue to immerse themselves in the chaos of war.

With the evolution of the general trend of the world, the emperor also realized that even if he took power, he could not do better than General Shen.Once there are any restless thoughts and actions, it will definitely not be a good thing for him or the world.

It is precisely because of this self-knowledge and prudence that the emperor can maintain a tacit understanding with General Shen.But when the morals of the world finally had a substantial change, some problems were unavoidable. When faced with Shen's aggressive posture, the emperor felt more aggrieved.

He may be incompetent or mediocre, but when it comes to not letting himself become an obstacle in the world, he has done enough to ask himself.His sister-in-law is so wise that it is impossible not to understand his intentions.Could it be that the supreme authority made people stunned, which made General Shen act too eagerly, making things go off the safest track?
After several days of hard thinking in Yuanzhong, the emperor finally decided to take a step forward and summoned Shen Chong in the Taiji Hall.

Seeing Shen Chong entering the palace alone, the emperor was still a little bit surprised, but his mood was still a little relieved. He stood up and greeted him with crossed arms, and said with emotion: "Mr. Shen is willing to come to see you at this time. I want to thank you very much."

The emperor's words were too straightforward, and even Shen Chong's face showed a little bit of unnaturalness. After he worshiped and entered the table, he replied with a straight expression: "The dead are like this, and it is inevitable that the world will disturb people. But no matter outsiders No matter what the noise was, the father and son always kept in mind that if it wasn't for Suzu's benevolence and righteousness to protect them, the father and son would have become rich and powerful, and there would be no future incidents. Suzu has been on the road for a long time. How sad..."

"Father... I only hate that when I was young and weak, I couldn't deeply appreciate the sufferings my father suffered. My filial piety was too weak, and I was ashamed to be the master of others."

Hearing Shen Chong's words about the first emperor, the emperor also showed a lot of nostalgia and shame on his face. After a long while, he restrained his appearance and looked at Shen Chong again: "Father, the emperor left Ze Hui, and I still rely on it to become an adult. All kinds of old favors I won’t go into details, these years, my brother-in-law and brother-in-law have been loyal to the king’s affairs, and he has not slack off for a single day, ruined the rivers and mountains, and restored the country. That’s all, even if we don’t talk about the general trend, just analyze the personal feelings, the brother-in-law has saved me several times , not for this kindness and care, I am now, now..."

Speaking of this, the emperor was already a little excited.It is undeniable that he has sincere and simple feelings for this brother-in-law, and it is by no means the misplaced relationship between a weak king and a powerful minister, and he sincerely hopes to maintain this feeling, even if he takes more initiative back down.

But this kind of alternation of honor and status is itself the most serious event in the world, so how can it be possible to achieve both love and affection.Previously, the emperor's extravagant hopes for this were only because he believed that his brother-in-law's shock was amazing and could be handled properly.But now that he really felt the aggressive oppression, besides the panic, he was also disappointed.

"I'm not, I'm not... Although Shen Gong and I lack intimacy, I am open-minded and seldom have deep plans. I wonder if Shen Gong can understand this?"

Even if it was just a puppet, it was extremely difficult for the emperor to say this and show weakness to this point. After he finished speaking, he was already extremely ashamed and wronged.

He has shown his posture so clearly that he almost said directly to Shen Chong: Don't worry, I don't have the idea of ​​being attached to the big position at all. Up to now, I just want to have a happy ending, so that I can maintain my status as emperor Entering Luo to worship the ancestors, kowtow that the Hu troubles have been eliminated, the country will be restored to order, and the unworthy descendants can retreat without shame.As long as this last matter is settled, I will cooperate with the honorable position to abdicate, the world will change hands, and there will be no need to intimidate and persecute.

Hearing the emperor's statement, Shen Chong avoided the table and bowed again. His tone was not lacking in sincerity: "The minister may not be lucky enough to enter the heart of the king, but he also dares to peek into the heart and gain a little. Although your majesty is not known for his judgment, he is kind and knowledgeable. A virtuous king in ancient times. If the first emperors of the Chinese Dynasty could guard this quietly, the common people in the world might be able to avoid the turmoil of decades of tyranny in China."

"The preface of the minister, Su Zu Enzhong, dare not be negative. It is not hypocritical and self-decorating. It is the truth from the heart. The father and son of the minister are nothing more than the commoners of Jiang Zuohan's residence. They have no reputation in the world, and no talent is more important than the public. Wuzhong , The world is in panic, Yongjia's catastrophe, the world is in turmoil, Wu Township is remote, and it can't be outside, the birds are startled, they lose their sense of proportion, good and evil are confused, and they don't know where to live. It is not Suzu's benevolent shelter, Ze and the inner court , then Shen Chong and his son have already sunk into the river with dead bones, and their lives are long gone..."

When Shen Chong spoke up to this point, his eyes were faintly red, and he bowed again: "Everyone in the universe knows the importance of a family's graciousness. It's a pity that when the world is changing, everyone is fighting for a chance. If you tend to the way, you will lose In love, in righteousness, in loyalty, although kindness is more than a mountain, it is difficult to last forever. Weizhou is now tied to the popularity of people in the country, coerced by the crowd, and everything can not be independent. But driven by the situation, there is still I have worked so hard to find a place for His Majesty to advance and retreat calmly, so that I can enjoy the rest of my life in peace and not be harmed by common sentiments."

Seeing Shen Chong's sincere statement, the emperor was a little stunned for a while.He also understood that he was not a quick-witted, smart person who knew little things, and he couldn't figure out the reason for the aggressive attitude of Shen and his son, so he simply asked directly: "If you want to ask Mr. Shen, how will you make me retreat? "

When it comes to this step, Shen Chong simply no longer conceals it, and directly expresses his true heart: "Emperors special Zen, three generations of successors, at that time followed the customs, and would rather be a righteous disciple than a usurper. Not yet, since it has already died, please stop here, Your Majesty, and pursue it again if you have no regrets."

"What, what does this mean?"

Hearing this, the emperor's face suddenly changed, and he stood up from the imperial bed suddenly, glaring at Shen Chong with wide eyes: "Is this what you mean? Or is it sister, or is it General Shen?"

Hu Run held his sword outside the hall, and when he heard the emperor's exclamation from inside, he immediately stepped in, but saw Shen Chong turning his head again, waving to him to signal to leave.

The etiquette of fighting for concessions, the behavior of Yao and Jie, sometimes high and low, cannot be normal.Zhuangzi did not think that Yao and Shun's Zen positions were more expensive than those of Tang and Wu's conquests.

Shen Chong's citation of this allusion here is nothing more than saying that China lost its morality and lost its country, which directly led to an unprecedented catastrophe that led to the misfortune of Zhuxia from the border areas. The reason why Shen was able to win the country, It lies in being sensitive to the difficulties of the world, obeying the demands of the living and the people, and killing the Hu in the Northern Expedition to achieve this brilliant achievement. This is an act of benevolence and righteousness.

Strictly speaking, Emperor Min Sima Ye, who had long since died in Guanzhong, had already died in Guanzhong. As for Jiangdong Zhongxing, it was already a different set of logic. Whether he could inherit the legal system of China and North Korea in terms of rituals was questionable.Now that the general is in charge, it is the consensus among the people in Yunei, and there is no need to inherit Jiangdong's unjustifiable legal system.

Before the general situation changed, the power of the Shen family had already reached an extreme point, but General Shen has always been forbearing and restrained, because he was unwilling to accept the replacement of the Jin court in the form of abdication.

There is nothing to pursue in the Jin Dynasty, and there is nothing to bury. As the foundation of the new dynasty and the new order has been solidified, General Shen can't tolerate the legal system of the Jin Dynasty continuing to linger in the order of the new dynasty like a wandering ghost.

Wherever you die, that's where you're buried!The new Daliang Empire will take over Zhuxia Shenzhou with a brand new look, and will not force the shadow of the remnant souls of China and North Korea to do any meaningless cover-up of favors.
