Chapter 580 Why are you wearing old Liu’s clothes?

After the Jiying Palace withdrew from the imperial court, the elders and governors went to the capital hall to talk and drink tea. Naturally, there was a lot of business exchanges, and the whole capital hall was in a happy mood.

While everyone was talking, an old official in soap clothes suddenly came up behind Han Jiang and whispered something.

Han Jiang's expression suddenly froze.

"Zuo Kui, what's wrong?" Lu Gongzhu asked.

Han Jiang looked strange and replied: "Shi Deyi is here."

The entire capital suddenly became quiet.

Shi Deyi was the late emperor's confidant and had been controlling the Imperial City Department for the late emperor.

When the late emperor was seriously ill, he was placed under house arrest.

But later there was a miraculous comeback, and it was said that it was Bao Ci Gong who was responsible.

This is a one-sided statement from the two palaces, and these ministers must see it with their own eyes before they can rest assured.

Anything that might threaten this matter should be nipped in the bud! wipe out!

Everyone listened and felt only one thing - their scalp was numb!
Wen Yanbo was even more stunned. His eyes and Han Jiang's looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes - this was not the way of Zhao Guan's family at all!
No matter how you look at it, it looks like you are wearing the clothes of the old Liu family!

Now, it's not just the officials who are confused.

However, everyone knows that Shi Deyi is currently one of the most powerful ministers in the palace.

This means that even they are within the scope of being summoned.

Wen Yanbo also knew that he should give face to the two palaces, so he immediately went down the ladder and said: "I risk my own life, please be kind and gracious. I, the left minister, and the right minister will go in to pay homage to the emperor's holy face."

As soon as Shi De entered the door, he got straight to the point and announced his mission.

This is the consciousness of the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty!
The world is a world governed by officials and us.

As it was an important matter for Pingzhang's military affairs, Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Lu Gongzhu looked at each other, and then led the ministers to step forward to salute and say hello.

However, this is indeed the power of the ruling elders.

"It's just my son who sleeps. If too many people come in, they might disturb my son's sleep."

At this time, the curtain has fallen in the palace.

Upon entering the dormitory, the first thing Wen Yanbo and the two prime ministers saw was a giant map of Bianjing hanging on the wall of the dormitory.

After a long time, he said to the Queen Mother: "The invitation from the Grand Master is certainly appropriate."

"Yes!" The two palaces in the curtain finally gave the answer after deliberation.

The emperor was sad in the palace, tired of crying, and fell asleep.

A quarter of an hour later, the prime ministers and elders were taken to Funing Palace.

Therefore, something must have happened when this big Diao Dang suddenly came to the capital.

Wen Yanbo bowed again and said, "I would like to ask for your permission to allow the old ministers and others to come in and pay homage to the official holy face."

The elders also looked at each other in shock, because Shi Deyi used the word "Qian Chen".

When Shi De looked at Wen Yanbo, he quickly bowed and said, "I am a member of the official family. I saw the disaster report reported on the Huainan Road. I felt the suffering of the people and the difficulty of livelihood, so I cried bitterly for the people of Huainan." Weeping, the Sacred Heart was greatly hurt, and the compassionate saints of the two palaces also cried together."

Seeing this, the other elders and prime ministers quickly followed suit and bowed to the Funing Hall: "Your Majesty is a benevolent, saintly and virtuous man, a blessing to the world and a blessing to the country!"

There are many notes on the map, and each note seems to correspond to a neighborhood, a street, or a market.

Written by Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang and Lu Gong, thank you again.

Since then, this big mink has become very low-key and rarely appears in front of people.

What if - you, relying on your mighty spirit, use this excuse to hide the emperor in the palace from now on, thus isolating China from the outside world?
Therefore, there should be no opportunity for people to take advantage of the loopholes from the beginning.

Wen Yanbo couldn't help but ask: "If you ask me, what happened?"

They were brought to the imperial couch, where they bowed down and bowed their heads four times as the emperor and ministers did (Wen Yanbo prayed three times). Then, claiming to be risking their lives and being bold, they stood up and approached the imperial couch, looking at the people sleeping on the imperial couch. The emperor above.

Then, Wen Yanbo came forward and asked: "I heard that the official family was saddened by the disaster in Huainan. The old minister was bold enough to invite the benevolent saints of the two palaces and the ministers to pay homage to the official family."

Moreover, he was also the most trusted figure among the current officials and the Empress Dowager Baoci Palace.

The three of them quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look any further.

Then, accompanied by Shi Deyi, Feng Jing and others, he bowed and entered the inner bedroom of Funing Hall through the small door on one side.

After a while, Shi Deyi was invited to the capital hall.

The next second, Wen Yanbo's political sensitivity came online on time, and his body nerves, even earlier than his brain, stood up in a swish, looking so strong that he didn't look like an eighty-year-old man at all.

His eyes turned red instantly, and he burst into tears. He looked in the direction of Funing Hall and knelt down with a bang: "The benevolence, saintliness and virtue of an official are truly a blessing to the world and the country!"

"In the words of the benevolent saints of the two palaces, I invite you all to follow me into the palace to discuss matters!"

They won't give it to anyone, take advantage of it!
There was a little silence in the curtain, and the two palaces were obviously frightened by such a straightforward request.

Only the figures of the two palaces can be seen, sitting in them, but the officials are not there.

This is a necessary process.

Queen Mother Xiang, who was sitting in the curtain, replied in a slightly hoarse voice: "To be honest, Master, my son was just too sad and has already fallen asleep."

The emperor's face was rosy and he was sleeping peacefully. There were only a few tears in the corners of his eyes.

So the three of them bowed and bowed again, saying: "I will wait for you to die for the offence."

Then he retreated step by step.

The moment he exited the bed, Wen Yanbo caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of his eye.

It was his granddaughter Wen Xunniang, who was coming out of the hall.

Wen Yanbo was immediately overjoyed.

Serve the emperor, and serve the emperor in his bed.

These are two concepts!

After leaving the bedchamber, Wen Yanbo and the two prime ministers came to the curtain and confessed: "I deserve to die. I beg the benevolent saints of the two palaces to punish me."

The two palaces in the curtain will neither convict nor dare to convict.

The Empress Dowager said: "What crime did the three ministers commit?"

He also said to the Queen Mother: "The three ministers are so sincere. I and the Queen Mother deserve to be commended."

The three people hurriedly bowed again: "I don't dare."

After this, the other prime ministers and elders all calmed down and understood the importance of this matter in their hearts.

Everyone knows this is a good thing!
The emperor was sad, cried, and even felt guilty and self-blame for the Huainan victims.

what is this?
This is the journey of the Holy King!

It was a deed that moved the Song Dynasty even more!
When this matter spread to Huainan, it was enough to comfort and stabilize the hungry and cold victims.

The emperor was sad for everyone and shed tears.

Even if the victims are hungry or shivering with cold, they should still be grateful.

When it comes to the court specifically, this matter is even more worthy of a special mention.

If there is a sage king, there must be famous ministers and wise ministers.

As long as we help the emperor to calm down the disaster in Huainan.

This matter will definitely go down in national history, and may even become an allusion.

As a result, everyone's minds suddenly became active.

Especially Feng Jingdu was almost dumbfounded.

"How stupid I am!"

"Why didn't you think of a way to stay last year?"

I had only been back in Beijing for a few days, and I encountered such a good opportunity to build my reputation.

Moreover, it was created by Xiao Guanjia himself!

Feng Jing now finally understood why the two old guys Zhang Fangping and Sun Gu refused to go back to their hometown and insisted on staying in Bianjing.

This is not just because the officials of the current dynasty treated the elders with great courtesy.

It's very likely that they still encounter this kind of thing often.

Every now and then, through the light of a small official family, I can appear on such occasions and participate in such historical events.

Just thinking like this, Feng Jing felt deeply that he had lost 100 million.

He swore that even if the emperor drove him away this time, he would not return to Luoyang.

Whoever wants to stay in Luoyang and be sent to Henan Prefecture can take it!

Anyway, he didn't want to go back.

With this mentality, Feng Jing sat upright.

At this time, the two palaces had ordered people to help Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Lu Gongzhu, and helped the three people back to their seats.

Seeing Wen Yanbo, Han Jiang, and Lu Gongzu sit down, the Empress Dowager in the curtain asked: "My dear ministers, please come and discuss this matter."

"Today, the officials read the memorials of Cai Bian, Deputy Envoy of the Sixth Route of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, and Song Yongchen, Ambassador of Huainan River Control and Disaster Relief. They cried with me and the Queen Mother: The saintly virtues of our ancestors are as bright as the sun and the moon, and the saintly conduct of the late emperor, It lasts forever, and I dare not damage it at all.”

"He also said that Wan Fang is guilty, but I am the one to blame. I just hope that no one in Huainan will be harmed."

Having said this, the Queen Mother also sighed softly in the curtain. Thinking of her child's appearance just now, she couldn't help but sob softly.

That child is truly holy!
He also truly loves the people!
Seeing this, all the ministers stood up one after another and held fluorene to apologize: "I am waiting for the death penalty... I beg the benevolent saints of the two palaces to punish me!"

Since ancient times, the Lord has humiliated his ministers and died, and naturally the Lord has worried about his ministers.

Today, the emperor is crying and sad for the people affected by the disaster.

The responsibility must lie with them, the prime ministers and elders.

The two palaces in the curtain did not answer their words. The Queen Mother just said to herself: "I and the Queen Mother are just women and know very little about world affairs."

"The public and other ministers are all members of the late emperor and important ministers of the country. They must have good strategies to solve this problem."

"I also ask you all, gentlemen, to speak freely and without any scruples."

The ministers all bowed and remained silent as they listened.

Even Wen Yanbo kept his mouth firmly shut.

This made Feng Jing very strange.

He looked at Zhang Fangping standing next to him, and then knocked on Wen Yanbo in front.

Although it was a bit strange, Feng Jing still did not suppress his inner impulse. He took a step forward and said: "I know that the two palaces are kind sages. I have Taishan, Gu Sikong and Han Wenzhong Gong. They comforted Jingdong in the seventh year of Qingli." There were 500,000 refugees, and many regulations and articles were written during this period, all of which were compiled into a book called "Qingzhou Zhenji Policy."

"Now the original manuscript is in the hands of his son Shaoting. With the mercy of the saint, Shaoting can be recruited into the palace, which may be beneficial to Huainan affairs."

After listening to the two palaces in the curtain, they seemed to have a discussion, and then the Queen Mother said: "Good!"

"I would like to ask Feng Qing to fetch this book and present it to the officials tomorrow."

Feng Jing was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Isn't that what the script is like?

Shouldn't he immediately send an envoy to his father-in-law's mansion in the capital to get the book?

Why wait until tomorrow?

Why did he go to get it?
Feng Jing didn't understand.

But soon, he understood.

Because at this time, Wen Yanbo turned around and gave him a wink.

This look made Feng Jing very uneasy, and he quickly bowed his head to thank him.

Then, Feng Jing heard Zhang Fangping's voice.

"I learned that the two palaces were benevolent saints. The old minister was frightened and boldly thought that although today's emperor, Yuji, is only a few years old, he has a holy heart and benevolence, just like the ancient kings. He is smart and decisive, and has the blessing of his ancestors. He loves the people like a son, so he will win. "Teaching by the Two Saints."

"Now that Your Majesty's holy heart is hurt by the disaster in Huainan and you sympathize with the suffering of the people, you will surely have grace to extend to Huainan."

"Old minister is guilty of capital punishment. I dare you to ask the Merciful Saint to be here. Waiting for His Majesty to wake up, he will first give you a message of virtue and then make a decision."

As soon as Zhang Fangping finished speaking, Left Prime Minister Han Jiang bowed and said, "Old minister, I second the proposal."

Then came Zhang Hong, the minister Zuocheng: "I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal!" Li Qingchen, who knew the Privy Council, held the fluorene in his hand and bowed.

Deng Runfu, the right minister of Shangshu, followed closely: "I second the proposal."

As for the Right Prime Minister Lu Gong, after a long while, Shi Shiran bowed to the inspector again and said: "I second the proposal."

As a result, Li Chang, the minister under the sect, An Tao, the Privy Councilor with Tongzhi, and others began to take sides.

Apparently, North Korea and China have quietly divided into two factions.

Leftists and rightists.

This is something Feng Jing could not discover in Henan Mansion.

On this issue, the two factions of prime ministers agreed with Zhang Fangping's words.

what's the situation?
Feng Jing suddenly woke up, raised his head, looked at Zhang Fangping in front of him, and cursed secretly: "Old man!"

why?
Because Feng Jing discovered that he seemed to have been tricked by Zhang Fangping.

Because of Zhang Fangping's words, he was put in an extremely embarrassing position - he had just asked the Cisheng of the Two Palaces to go to his father-in-law to ask for the "Qingzhou" written by his father-in-law during the disaster relief work in Qingzhou. "Relief Policy" was used as a blueprint to preside over Huainan's relief measures.

As a result, Zhang Fangping immediately jumped out and asked the two palaces to wait for the officials to wake up before requesting an order. Once the order was given, everyone would discuss how to do this according to the officials' orders.

In other words, Zhang Fangping stepped on him and Feng Jingfeng acted as a loyal minister here!

If Zhang Fangping is a loyal minister, then who is he? Traitor?
Feng Jing suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

Although he has never heard the saying 'loyalty is not absolute, it is absolutely disloyal'.

However, he is still aware of the sensitive and suspicious temperament of Zhao officials.

If this offends that little official...

Feng Jing quickly shrank his neck and did not dare to speak again.

But there was one thing that he couldn't understand.

Today's officials are known all over the world for their cleverness, benevolence, saintliness, and generosity.

He has also heard of many deeds of this young emperor.

But the problem is...

This is disaster relief!

Moreover, it involves major disaster relief events in areas such as Huainan Road that are stuck at key nodes of the Grand Canal.

It's not like playing house in Bianjing City.

Are these ministers and senior ministers willing to follow the baton of the petty officials?

Aren't they afraid of something going wrong?
And Wen Yanbo, why didn’t he question it?

Wasn’t the lesson learned at Liuta River that year not enough?

The decision made by the Zhao officials on the spur of the moment has killed so many people. Isn’t it enough? Are you still going to follow them around?

Feng Jing had personal experience and participated in the Six Pagoda River Discussion.

He also saw with his own eyes that Ouyang Xiu and other ministers who opposed returning to the river argued hard in front of the emperor and even put forward a mathematical model - but it was ridiculous to try to accommodate the water of the big river with a narrow area of ​​fifty steps. A man's three-foot square is doubled to six feet, and the width and thickness are three feet and the length is six feet. Since the work is doubled, it depends on the human power and has been laborious. The cloud is six feet square, calculated using the method of opening, which is eight times the work. How can this be defeated by human power? Therefore, the previous work is great but difficult to achieve, and the later work is small but unrealistic.

However, Renmiao refused to listen and the tortoise chanted sutras.

He just insisted on going his own way and finally caused a catastrophe that continues to this day!

The Yellow River burst its banks and roared into the Ergu River!

And today, although I am smart and handsome, I am afraid that I may not be that smart when it comes to disaster relief and disaster relief.

The evidence is - the late emperor also suffered a big fall on the Huihe River!
Xining returned to the river and made the same mistakes as the Liuta River again.

Hebei has still not recovered its vitality!
If the late emperor is like this, how much stronger can the little emperor taught by the late emperor be?

and so……

What's the situation now?
Feng Jing really didn't understand.

How did he know that the elders and governors were willing to believe Zhao Xu and unanimously requested that they wait until he woke up and received instructions to discuss the matter.

This is for a reason.

In the past year and a half, Zhao Xu has been extremely cooperative and willing to listen to opinions in the DPRK.

As long as he is present to listen to politics, no matter what the matter, he is willing to listen to different opinions and then invite everyone to discuss it.

Even when the government was in trouble, the policy of nominating the prime minister and waiting for the recommendation of the ministers above was invented.

It pushed the national policy of the Song Dynasty and scholar-bureaucrats to govern the world to a new level!
On the contrary, the two palaces, especially the Empress Dowager, would sometimes act in accordance with their own tempers and do things in their own way, which was really unkind to a scholar-bureaucrat!
Secondly, Zhao Xu has already made achievements in related aspects.

Last year, Hebei did a very good job in desilting and achieved remarkable results.

Especially in the east flow channel, after cleaning, the Yellow River has been quiet this year - although this is related to the decrease in precipitation upstream.

But results are results!
This year, Song Yongchen once again took command and led his troops south to provide disaster relief, and he also made achievements.

It only took two million yuan to basically stabilize Huainan, especially the artery of the Grand Canal.

The emperor was willing to listen to advice and was particularly willing to seek opinions and suggestions from professionals and let them do professional things.

At the same time, he still has achievements in this area.

If you don't invite him out, will you let the two palaces pat their butts and make decisions here?
The Liuta River back then almost destroyed the Song Dynasty!

Neither the Prime Minister nor the elders wanted it to happen again.

But Feng Jing only entered Beijing in mid-July. How did he know these things?

Fortunately, when Wen Yanbo saw his appearance, he quietly reminded him: "In this world, if you want to stay in the court, you should talk less and do more in the future."

Not like others.

Wen Yanbo felt something was wrong from the beginning!

He now seriously suspected that the officials of the current dynasty were wearing the clothes of the old Liu family, and they were also the clothes of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Taizong of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty.

Especially today, this one makes me cry.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like the foundation of Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty.

However, Wen Yanbo will bury this matter in his heart and take it to the coffin.
