The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 20 You... are the best
Liang Xin didn't say anything.

Liang Shicheng continued: "Zhang Xianggong and the others may use yesterday's solar eclipse as a reason. Such a terrible thing happened to this official just after he ascended the throne. My father is also uneasy."

Liang Xin continued to eat with his head down. At this time, he also realized that if ancient emperors encountered such a thing, it was common for them to reflect on themselves, or to issue edicts for sins.

Liang Xin looked around and approached Liang Shicheng: "Dad, you said that the official family is our wealth."

"Yes." Liang Shicheng was very sure of this.

Liang Xin said again: "Dad, you don't mind killing a few more, so that the officials will trust you more, dad."

Liang Shicheng narrowed his eyes: "Who?"

Liang Xin asked: "Who do the officials hate the most?"

Liang Shicheng shook his head: "It's Xianggong Zhang. This is impossible. The officials themselves can't sit still, and this matter is very complicated."

"Dad, tell me."

"Okay." Liang Shicheng took a sip of water: "When Emperor Daxing came to the throne, that is, seven years ago, the old method used many disgraceful methods to suppress the new method with almost cruel methods. As for the late emperor, It can be said that I hate the old Fa lineage and the Queen Mother Gao very much."

Liang Xin listened silently.

Liang Shicheng spoke very slowly and had to think for a while every time he said a word. He was afraid that he would mislead Liang Xin if he said something wrong.

"With the support of the late emperor, the New Fa Lineage turned around. Their methods were more ruthless and cruel than the previous Old Fa Lineage. Even the deceased Sima Guang was regarded as a traitor."

Liang Shicheng talked about many things from that year.

After listening to this, Liang Xin felt that this was like being incompatible with fire and water, trying to kill the other party.

Liang Xin asked: "Where is the official family?"

Liang Shicheng shook his head: "The official knows what the new law is and what the old law is. He only relies on his personal likes and dislikes, ah... By the way, dad remembered it. The newly appointed Zuo Zhengyan and You Zhengyan are both from the old law lineage. People, Taijian is basically controlled by the old law lineage, and they are looking for opportunities."

"Dad, we've arranged for people to search the house."

"Whose house are you copying?"

Liang Xin: "I'll see the official family in the afternoon and see what's going on."

Liang Shicheng: "Be careful and cautious."

Liang Xin nodded.

A sharp blade is already there, and Liang Xin hopes that she can grasp it.

Then, kill some people.

In the afternoon, Liang Xin entered the palace with several volumes of history books. His task was to read to the emperor.

No one in the civil or military court took Liang Xin seriously.

He just thought he was a eunuch from Prince Duan's palace who found a job for his son, just a bookkeeper at Zhaowen Hall. To put it bluntly, he was a librarian in the library.

Entering Zhao Ji's study, there was no one in the study today. Zhao Ji sat alone on the ground in front of his desk. After entering the room, Liang Xin untied his robe, took off his belt and placed it on the ground, then stepped aside.

Zhao Ji didn't understand.

belt.

It's a very beautiful belt, especially the jade buckle on it. It's no worse than the one used by my emperor.

The noise in the court today was so fierce that even Queen Mother Xiang could hardly suppress it.

Although no one mentioned a word about him as the emperor, it was a solar eclipse after all, and Zhao Ji was extremely flustered by this matter.

After Liang Xin put down his belt, he stood there motionless.

"Present treasure?" Zhao Ji was confused.

Liang Xin said: "It was found in the house of an old eunuch in the palace. My father checked the palace records and found that it was awarded to King Jian by Emperor Daxing two years ago."

Zhao Ji stared at Liang Xin: "Solar eclipse, it's solar eclipse now. I..." Zhao Ji's tone suddenly became very sad: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid."

Liang Xin took a few steps forward and sat cross-legged in front of Zhao Ji: "Just because of the solar eclipse, you will be happy in less than a quarter of an hour. Now let's talk about the belt." The solar eclipse is Zhao Ji's biggest worry at this time, to be precise. Said it was the throne.

He was really scared to death.

But looking at Liang Xin's half-smiling expression, Zhao Ji suddenly felt at ease again, more at ease than his uncle, who was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak when he heard about Empress Dowager Xiang.

Liang Xin can help him deal with Empress Dowager Xiang.After Zhao Ji calmed down, he took a serious look at the belt again. After looking at it for a while, Zhao Ji still didn't understand: "Then why is it in the palace eunuch's home?"

Liang Xin wanted to say, is there shit in your head?
Liang Xin pulled up a chair and sat down: "As a book boy, let me tell you a piece of history for the master Zhao Yi. Let's talk about Tang Zhongzong Li Xian..."

What did Li Xian have? He was deposed after less than two months as emperor.

Zhao Ji started to listen to the story, then started to sweat, until he broke into a cold sweat.

At this time, the Queen Mother "has the same authority to handle military and state affairs."

The power was in the hands of the Empress Dowager Xiang. Han Zhongyan was promoted to the right prime minister. When he had something to do, he would run to the Empress Dowager Xiang without taking himself as the emperor seriously at all.

However, Zhang Xianggong himself opposed his ascension to the throne and always advocated that King Jian ascended the throne...

The former eunuch in the palace actually had a secret relationship with King Jian...

One by one, every word Liang Xin said made Zhao Ji nervous, afraid, and frightened.

Yesterday, there was another solar eclipse.

A strong sense of crisis emerged from Zhao Ji's heart.

He panicked.

"How to do how to do?"

At this time, Zhao Ji had never thought that Liang Xin, who was only 16 years old this year, could have any amazing talents, but he was the only person he could ask.

At least, Liang Xin helped him solve the problem before.

After asking, Zhao Ji cursed bitterly: "Ask your father to suggest that they impeach Mr. Zhang, but there has been no result after so many days, so they don't take me seriously."

"Don't panic."

"I, I'm so scared..."

Liang Xin shouted: "Zhao Yi!!!"

This sound shocked Zhao Ji, and he heard Liang Xin say: "Solar eclipse is not a problem, just find someone to take the blame."

Zhao Ji: "Take the blame?"

"Yes, there are people who are being arrogant and disrespectful and trying to confuse the court. This is the cause of the solar eclipse."

Zhao Ji's face showed joy: "Then, who will take the blame? I don't dare to choose King Jian."

Liang Xin did not dare to choose King Jian.

You can apply pressure, but you don't dare to retaliate casually. If you are not careful, you will lose your head.

In fact, Liang Xin's target was not King Jian, but another person.

Liang Xin asked: "Is there anyone in the palace who is always praised?"

Zhao Ji: "Speak more straightforwardly."

Liang Xin: "That is, your concubines and eunuchs often whisper in your ears who is the best?"

"Well, there is." Zhao Ji still knew some things in the palace, and immediately said: "Cai Jing, some people are impeaching him, saying that he has friends with the chamberlains, and the eldest lady put in good words for him, wanted to protect him, and let him go to write history."

Liang Xin picked up the tea cup and saw that Zhao Ji was already at his own pace and said slowly: "Who is the best calligrapher and painter in the world?"

Zhao Ji: ...

Bang, Zhao Ji snatched Liang Xin's teacup and threw it heavily to the ground.
