Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 85
The days of winter are short, and at the end of Shenshi, the sun has already hung down beyond the palace wall, casting a large black shadow.

Usually at this time, after the court meeting is over, the courtiers either return to the Taicheng Government Office, or return home after taking a rest.Recently, the emperor has been rather elegant. Those above the nine ministers all stay in the West Hall, or talk about the past and the present, or criticize the people of the time, or talk about the night.Since the fall of China and North Korea, there has been no such thing as a harmony between the monarch and his ministers inside and outside.

Naturally, today is no exception. The imperial court meeting has not yet concluded, and there are palace maids serving cheese drinks or tea soup at the seats of the courtiers in the west hall.The heating dragon that was extinguished late at night due to saving the palace was also ignited, and soon the whole hall was filled with warm wind.

Not long after, the emperor moved to the west hall with a group of courtiers, and went to their respective seats. They didn't have to follow the etiquette of the court meeting, but just wanted to be comfortable.

After everyone was seated, the emperor picked up the jade ruyi on the table in front of him, ready to set the tone for today's discussion.Jade Ruyi in his hand pointed to Wen Qiao, who was not far from his seat, and said with a smile: "In the past, most of the discussions were about ancient times, and most of the people and their affairs were untested. It is actually difficult to tell whether the later generations have been added or deleted due to the current situation and customs. Let's try to talk about it today. In recent history, how did China and North Korea win the country? All the princes can speak freely, so how about starting with General Zuo?"

The so-called Zhongchao refers to the early Jin Dynasty, which was called because its capital was established in the Central Plains.Everyone didn't expect the emperor to discuss the sensitive topic of how the Sima family won the country today, and they felt awe in their hearts. They were glad that they were not the first to be called out, and they were also thinking about how to speak when it was their turn later.

When Wen Qiao was called first, he smiled knowingly.He came from the north to the south to persuade him to come in. At the beginning, he was a servant of the East Palace, and he married the emperor and made a deal with each other.The emperor has behaved strangely recently, and he knows the purpose of it.Does it mean to be evil?The picture is Jingzhou ear!
It seems that today the emperor intends to move from China to the present, and wants to further explore the position of the courtiers.

With this understanding in mind, Wen Qiao sat upright, and just as he was about to speak, the Taibao Wang Dao on the right spoke first: "What your Majesty said, the history of later generations is biased, I think so. Although Wen Qiao served in the Central Dynasty, his The age is still young, it is better for the ministers to try to discuss it."

When the emperor saw that Director Wang took the initiative to invite Ying, his eyes flickered coldly. However, he had already said his words, and Director Wang invited him with reason. His age and seniority were among the best in the field, so he was naturally more qualified to talk about it than Wen Qiao .

The others were also surprised when they saw Director Wang speak up suddenly. Usually, this man always kept his voice to himself and rarely talked loudly in front of others. Why is it different today?When he saw the emperor's slightly stiff expression, he faintly smelled a trace of anger, and became even more vigilant in his heart.

"I respectfully hear that the Taibao has a great opinion." The emperor had no choice but to smile at Wang Daobao.

"Gao Zu's rise, Confucianism is called sage. However, at that time, after the beginning of Zhengshi, Cao He and his followers all died under the prestige, and the subordinates of Jiang and Jia all rose up because of luck."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions became a little unnatural, as if they were sitting on pins and needles.On the other hand, the emperor's expression became even more rigid. He did not expect that Director Wang, who has always been calm and elegant, would speak so sharply this time.

Gaozu was Sima Yi, Emperor Xuan, who was able to be promoted and reused at that time with the principles of Confucianism and classics.There is nothing wrong with the first half of the sentence, but the second half of the sentence bluntly states that Sima Yi launched the Gaopingling coup in the first ten years of Zhengshi, punishing Cao Shuang, the clan's relative, and his henchmen.

Although this is a fact, how can the emperor feel indifferent when it is publicized.

However, Wang Dao had no intention of giving up, and continued: "When the Taizu punished the noble township for his crimes, the temples of all the sages were destroyed, and the prestige at home and abroad was gathered, and the country came to its ears."

If the former sentence is still reserved, then the latter sentence will expose the evil deeds of the Sima family's disobedience to the emperor, usurping power and seeking rebellion.After hearing the words, the emperor couldn't control himself, he stood up abruptly, clenched Ruyi in his hands, and looked directly at Dao Wang.However, Director Wang lowered his eyes and straightened his body, his expression was still dull.

Everyone seemed to be unable to restrain the heat waves rolling in the hall, or fanning the noodles with their hands, or sipping tea, their eyes wandered from side to side, and they didn't dare to look up again.

Snapped!
With a clear and clear sound, the emperor threw Ruyi in his hand to His Highness, just when everyone's heartstrings tightened, they saw the emperor covered his face with his hands, fell down on the couch, and said in a sad tone: "If it is as the Taibao said, Jin Zuo will be safe for a long time. !"

Hearing the emperor's statement, everyone relaxed their hearts, secretly thinking that today's invisible turmoil should be over.

However, at this moment, a slightly cold and stern voice sounded from the other side of the hall: "The Taibao is ridiculous! The whereabouts of the ancestors are not unique to Zhengshi! He resisted Shu and oppressed Wu, and made great achievements. Searching the world, the leftovers and the virtuous. Open the canal to store Build, the world appreciates it!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw that the speaker was the leading general Ji Yin Bian Po, a pure minister of She Ji who served in the Eastern Palace.Regarding what Wang Dao said, it is reasonable to argue.Just when everyone was worried about the turmoil, they saw Director Wang, who had made the shocking remarks earlier, seemed to be dozing off, just lowered his eyelids, and did not respond.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit awkward. Yu Yi, who was present at the bottom, turned his eyes darkly, taking in the different expressions of everyone, but he was thinking in his heart, what would the elder brother say if he were in the hall today.But then he thought about it and thought that if the young man of the Shen family could be on the table, what amazing words would he say?

In the early days, he had the intention of seeking a foreign job, and Shen Zhezi persuaded him to stay in Jiankang. Now he has been transferred from the servant of the Huangmen to the Zuocheng of the Ministry of Officials.Although he is not the chief official of the Ministry of Officials, Chen Liuruan Fu, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is drunk and sleeps at home all day long, ignoring affairs.When the Ministry of Officials selects officials to serve, Yu Yi has a great right to speak, and he has already been reused.

The emperor said a few more words of emotion, encouraged Bian Pan and thanked Wang Dao for his teaching, and did not intend to continue the previous topic.Then his eyes fell on Yu Yi who was in the back row under the hall, and he smiled and said, "Brother-in-law is lonely again, I don't know where the birth uncle is drunk?"

Yu Yi didn't expect the emperor to change the topic to himself. The birth uncle is the nickname of Ruan Fu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.Although the emperor's tone was teasing, Yu Yi was inconvenient to speak out about the fault of the chief official, so he didn't know how to respond for a while.

However, soon someone rescued Yu Yi, and the speaker was Shangshu Ling Xijian: "Otsuka is the most important official, and the duties are selected. Ruan Fu is in his position but does not perform his duties. He releases his birth outside all day long. Proposal to remove its officials."

"Ruan Gong was a high-ranking sage at the time, and his talents were worthy of his duties. If he didn't use them, he would be putting his talents in vain."

The emperor said with a smile, even though he admired Ruan Fu on the surface, he didn't think so in his heart.It is just to use his name to occupy his position, and then he has the power to select and appoint officials. If he really changes the chief official who works diligently, it will be very inconvenient.However, he also knew that Ruan Fu was a high-ranking official, and that Ruan Fu's appointment would be vain, and staying in this position for a long time would ruin the government. When everything is properly arranged next year, this guy will just go home drunk and dream of death.

Speaking of the affairs of the officials, the emperor suddenly remembered the hustle and bustle of Wuxing County Zhongzheng Dingpin, and then looked at Prince Shaofu and Lu Ye of the Lu family of Wujun: "I heard that Wuzhong often recites the five words of "Yongzhi" First, can Young Fu hear about it?"

Hearing this, Lu Ye felt a little embarrassed. Wu Xing and Shen Mu's five-character chants used Xiang Wang's bravery to ridicule the lack of courage in the North. The inferiority of the North.However, there are many overseas Chinese in the hall at the moment, and the emperor wants to use his mouth to slap many courtiers in the face, but he can't calm down, he can only presume that he doesn't know.

Although Lu Ye didn't say a word, the overseas Chinese and ministers in the hall could hardly remain calm.Although the emperor held an honorable position, he was only a baby when he traveled south, so the crime of losing the country could not be blamed on himself.As for the current princes of Gungun, all those who traveled to the south felt ashamed when they heard this poem, and they became more and more resentful and hoped that the Wu people would criticize it.

At this time, Bian Xing said again: "I also heard about Wu Xingzhong's upright order. Shen Zhezi, the son of Shen's Xiaolang Guanneihou, did not follow the etiquette and violated the rules. people of the time."

After the emperor heard this, he frowned. This Bian Po was indeed a loyal minister, but he was also a pure minister.For example, at the moment, the emperor was really pleased with Bian Yan's disobedience to the king when he spoke earlier.But now he blamed a young man with etiquette, which made him a little embarrassed.

Although Shen Chong's son impressed him a lot, it was not too embarrassing.But right now he is going to attack the Langya Wang family to take Jingzhou back, and he is about to win over the Wu people to join forces, how can he blame Shen Chong, the only remaining Southern Fang Bo, for a small crime at this time?

What's more, Yu Tan's appointment as Zhongzheng of Wuxing County came from Wang Dao's suggestion, so he was not the emperor's favorite candidate.Now that the young man of the Shen family overwhelmed the Qingwang Yutan with righteousness, theory and classics, it was in line with the needs of the emperor to bad-mouth the royal family, so how could he be the one to sing the opposite.

When the emperor was in a dilemma, Yu Yi spoke in the hall: "I dare not agree with Bian Gong's suggestion. The young man of Shen's family has not entered the village, and he said that he has gained it. If he blames the court for this, it will cause Fei Dunxian to die. Silence, the gain outweighs the loss."

The emperor nodded slightly to Yu Yi with a smile. After experience, his brother-in-law was finally able to read his eyes and know how to speak out for him.He also knows that Yu Yi and Shen Chong have a good personal friendship, but now there is no need to worry too much about it.

As for the young man from the Shen family, the emperor was quite optimistic about it, especially the sentence "do my part" which surprised him even when he heard about it.Then he remembered that this kid had recited the words of papaya in Yuancheng earlier, and his mind became a little more active.This young man's family background is considered to be considerable, and his talents and expectations are already somewhat clear. If he wishes to ask for the papaya of the royal family, from the present point of view, it is not impossible to give it.

The emperor knew that it was only an expedient measure to unite with the overseas Chinese to suppress the Wu people. The so-called land has no distinction between the north and the south, and all belong to the land of Jin.If you can't take root here, the country will still be in turmoil, so how can you talk about Beifu Shenzhou!
Therefore, the emperor still cared a lot about Jiang Donghao's Shen family.If it can get its full support and echo with Liyang and Xuzhou from north to south, the Wang family will not be a problem.

However, the idea of ​​getting married just flashed in his mind, and he didn't think deeply about it.Now that the emperor is in the prime of his life, his sons and daughters are all immature, so there is no need to rush.

After talking with the ministers for a long time, the emperor became a little tired, and suddenly remembered that he had not seen King Nandun for a long time, and he thought in his heart that he would call Nandun King to see him tomorrow.That Xueshuang powder can really strengthen the spirit, after taking one dose, he will be in good spirits all day long, giving him enough energy to deal with these disobedient ministers.
