Chapter 701: The Great Framework

Yin Yan didn't directly teach King Jin what to do next, but this analysis (mental massage) played a role. It inspired the fighting spirit of King Jin. As the son-in-law of today, who doesn't want to be an emperor?

The situation in Beijing is undergoing some slight changes.

After the Chung Yeung Festival, it will soon be the end of September. The autumn breeze is cool.

In a temple in the landscape "Penglai on the Sea" in the West Garden, Yin Yan walked into the palace under the leadership of the palace maid.

Along the way, there have been several groups of eunuchs and palace maids leading the way. It can be said that the palace gate is deep. Yin Yan had already been mentally prepared. As far as the DPRK and China are concerned, it has long been a beautiful day. However, Emperor Yongzhi Tianzi is scheming and still controls the government.

This temple is not the main hall of the previous dynasty, but a small hall for rest. The pattern is square, the walls, Duobao Pavilion, cabinets, seats and other furnishings are exquisite, and the curtains and curtains are carved with dragons and phoenixes. Royalty.

A screen was arranged in the middle of the small hall, blocking Yin Yan's line of sight. Seven or eight palace maids stood inside and outside the screen. Each holds a variety of utensils, or stands with his hands down.

Yin Yan bowed, etiquette standards, and said: "Weichen see the queen's mother." ”

Behind the screen, it was Empress Yang. Empress Yang sat upright on a chair, and the two palace maids who were close to her body stood upright. She was dressed in a dark red palace dress, and her plump twin peaks held up a charming curve on her chest. Round and jade. A slightly plump beautiful woman. The dark red palace dress adds to her graceful and luxurious atmosphere.

Today's meeting was facilitated by King Jin. He said a few good words of Yin Yan in Queen Yang's ear. The reason is very simple, Yin Yan said that he would convince Empress Yang not to support the King of Chu. This is what King Jin urgently needs. And helping Emperor Yang recommend a good teacher can win the favor of Queen Yang.

The so-called, yang conspiracy, means that others have to follow your train of thought. Yin Yan used Yang Mou against King Jin.

Empress Yang smiled and said, "Yin Langzhong is flat. This palace heard that the king of Jin said that you are erudite and talented, and you are full of wealth. What is Yin Lang's rule of classics? ”

Yin Yan was in contact with Empress Yang for the first time, and a very strange feeling rose in his heart. You must know that the phrase "what a classic to govern" is basically the opening sentence of the conversation in Shilin. Everyone reads the same of the four books, except for the Five Classics, each with a different emphasis. However, Queen Yang can ask such a question, which shows that she has worked the scriptures. What an extraordinary woman!

Yin Yan changed his strategy when he came, calmly bowed his hand, and said, "It's just ordinary to be subordinate to Jingyi." Only benevolence and filial piety are good at. ”

Yin Yan was born in Hanlin, if it is said that Jingyi is just ordinary, this is definitely a modest statement. Those who can enter the Hanlin Academy are all elite scholars of the year. For a mother, her son was born in a heavenly family and was born wealthy, so what does it matter if she can't read the scriptures or not? What kind of person do you want him to be?

Empress Yang was slightly stunned, and then chuckled, "Mr. Yin's education is really different. She was very satisfied with Yin Yan.

The news of Yin Yan and Empress Yang's meeting was not eye-catching in the entire court. One is that Yin Yan is just a five-grade rite Langzhong. The second is that Prince Yang is only more than two years old, which is not the age to enter school.

However, for Han Jin, who knew the details of Yin Yan's words, this news from the palace made him frown slightly.

On the shore of Jingyuan North Lake, the autumn water is clear and the white clouds are flying high. Han Jin stroked the piano in the small pavilion near the lake. The news was brought over by Luo Xiucai, one of the two generals.

Luo Xiucai saw Han Jin frowning, staring at the endless lake, and said worriedly: "Brother Han, is there a big problem?" ”

Han Jin shook his head, "No." It's just that our plans need to be accelerated. "Prince Yang is not yet three years old, and they still have plenty of time. At least at the age of six, Yang Huangzi could apprentice.

With Yin Yan's talent and ability, he will inevitably help King Jin fight against His Royal Highness King Chu. So, he only has one or two chances. And as long as His Royal Highness the King of Chu becomes the crown prince, the big thing will be decided. No matter how powerful Jia Huan is, it is not enough.

Of course, in the process of fighting, he has to consider Jia Huan's impact on the progress of things. It is best to transfer Jia Huan out of the capital for a period of time. Of course, Jia Huan is now in Jiangnan.

The entire northern land is in the golden autumn, and the nine-sided Yulin has the breath of winter. The cold wind blows coldly in this military town. In the evening, the sunset, the remnants of the sun, the barracks, the streets with few pedestrians. Construct a landscape painting of the side plug.

The Yulin General Military Mansion is located in the middle of the city. In the outer study, coal is burning, steaming hot, warm as spring. Wang Ziteng was dressed in light clothes and asked the old servant who came from Beijing to deliver the letter, "How is it at home?" How is my wife's health? ”

Asked one by one, the old servant replied. Hearing that the family was fine, Wang Ziteng sent the old servant down and drank hot tea comfortably and comfortably. Sitting at the desk, he opened several letters from Beijing. This is already a letter from a month and a half ago. He first read the letter from his eldest son, Wang Chenghei.

"Father, the family has already received 0.3% of the minting shares. A total of 30,000 taels of silver needs to be paid. It has been raised and handed over to Jiafu..."

In the letter, Wang Chengsi talked about the recent situation of the Wang family. The four major families are currently headed by Jia Fu. This general trend does not mean that the views of one person or two people can be changed. Jia Huan went to Jiangnan, and Jia Zheng was still willing to help coordinate the affairs of the palace.

Wang Ziteng threw the letter on the desk, feeling a little embarrassed. The Wang family has been in charge of the four major families for many years, and they don't want to be in his hands, and they will surpass the past for Jiafu. This is still in the case of the abolition of the Jiafu Guifei card.

How embarrassing is this?

Wang Ziteng sighed, and then looked at the letter written by Jia Zheng. It gives a more detailed description of the coinage, as well as some recent wind trends in the court.

"The general army of Liaodong prayed for summer and wanted to conquer Monan Xianbei. There is a lot of controversy between the DPRK and China. The household department does not spend the treasury, and Hua Xiang acquiesces to it..."

No matter how bad the political level of the political father is, he will not write such words as "acquiescence" in his letter to Wang Ziteng. And how Hua Mo acquiesces, this kind of words, don't need to be written too clearly.

Wang Ziteng understood it at a glance. Combined with the recent news in Pravda: Praying for summer was rewarded. The idea in his heart was formed: Scholar He had left his job, and the Son of Heaven was very interested in Tuobian.

This can be seen from the reward for the general army of Liaodong: the general of the Fujun army (Zheng Erpin), a third-class baron. Promoted to knighthood. In Yulin City, there were scholars who traveled to the Western Regions and Saibei and came back and sang: The border court bleed into the sea, and Emperor Wu had no intention of opening the border.

Wang Ziteng secretly made up his mind in his heart, and shouted to the soldiers waiting outside the door, "Go and ask Zhang and Liu to participate in the future." ”

In the autumn of the sixteenth year of Yongzhi, 40,000 elite soldiers under the command of Yulin of the Great Zhou Dynasty went out of the north of the Saibei in multiple ways to attack the Chahar Department. Under the intelligence that had been prepared for a long time, it lasted half a month, and many battles took place, and finally a decisive battle was fought outside the city of Jungar on the west side of the Yinshan Mountain Range, with a total of 12,000 beheaded people and countless captured. The vitality of the Chahar Department was greatly injured and fled far to the north of the desert.

Subsequently, Wang Ziteng reported his merits to the imperial court.

By October, it was already very cold. A weakened team marched northwest to Mobei.

This is the Bayegu tribe under the Chahar tribe. They suffered heavy losses in the war from September to October. had to migrate to the north of the desert. Otherwise, they will either be captured and enslaved by the Zhou people, or starve to death.

On a small hillside, the tribal patriarch riding on a yellow horse, the 13-year-old patriarch Baye Gu Xiaode looked back at Nan Wang, with deep hatred in his eyes.

"Drive!"

He whipped his horse hard and rode after the group. One day, he wants the people of Zhou to taste his pain at this time.

The good news is a thousand miles a day, and the itinerary of the Wang family's slaves from Beijing is different. In mid-October, it was already spread throughout the capital. All sorts of gossip are flying. There is news that Wang Ziteng may be made a marquis.

Wang Ziteng's qualifications are too deep. His current official position is the capital of the nine provinces (Zheng Yipin), the governor of the five armies and the governor of the government Tongzhi (from the first product), and the Yulin General Army (Zheng Erpin). Official positions have always been taken from higher than from lower. The court wants to reward again, and if you go up, you can only be a marquis, and the lowest is an earl.

Needless to say, the joy of the Wang family is self-evident. The atmosphere in Jiafu is also very good. Regardless of whether there is competition between the Jia and Wang families, in the eyes of outsiders, the four families are one. The prince was knighted, and for Jiafu, it also contributed to the momentum.

Grand View Garden, in the Dharma Temple. Qin Zhong brought his new wife Fu Qiufang to meet his sister Qin Keqing.

Fu Qiufang has a beautiful appearance, a knowledgeable temperament, and a virtuous person. Qin Zhong was in charge of several answers. Qin Keqing was very satisfied with her, took her hand, and said a lot of words in a warm voice. Be a parent. But speaking of which, she is only 25 years old this year.

The remnant sun of early winter carries the afterglow. Reflected in the mountains and forests. Qin Keqing reluctantly sent Fu Qiufang and Qin Zhong outside the Damo Nunnery.

On the flat stone slab outside the mountain gate, Fu Qiufang said goodbye and said, "Sister, please stay." If my sister has time to practice, she can go home and stay for a few days. ”

Qin Keqing smiled softly and said, "Where can I go?" You two have a good life. You pulled Qin Zhong and admonished: "Brother, you have always been weak, but now that your brother and sister are at home, you should listen to her more." ”

Although she never considered herself a family member in her heart. But, as Uncle Huan said, take the form seriously. Why does she often go back to the Qin Mansion to live?

Qin Zhong was covered with a green shirt and a straight jacket, with a slender figure, very handsome, quite a daughter, and replied, "Sister, I know." ”

Qin Keqing watched the two of them go down the hill, sighed softly, and said to the big girl beside him, Baozhu: "If Uncle Huan is here, he will definitely be very satisfied when he sees Zhong'er and Qiu Fang so good." "This marriage was originally arranged by Uncle Huan.

It's just that Uncle Huan left Beijing in early summer and has not returned in winter. It's been a long time.

In the afternoon of that day, Luo Junzi and Qiao Rusong from Wendao Academy came from Dongzhuang Town to ask the mountain chief for teaching.

After the end of the autumn season, the classmates of Wendao Academy, such as Qiao Rusong, Qin Hongtu, Wei Yang, and Ji Cheng, were all selected. Wei Shentong married the granddaughter of Scholar Liu, and this time he won the course. It can be described as high-spirited.

In this Beizhili Township Examination, nearly 9,000 scholars participated in the examination. 120 people were admitted. Wendao Academy has a total of 139 talents plus township examinations. There were 21 people who were lifted. At the threshold of the township examination, under the cruel admission ratio, the results of Wendao Academy can be described as quite dazzling. It deserves to be a key high school.

After Zhang Anbo dispersed, he put down the officialdom and entertainment, returned home to eat with the students, and then went to the study to lecture on scriptures and answer questions.

Pang Ze was bored listening from the sidelines. After the township test, he served as a staff member in the Yamago shogunate. Not surprisingly, Pang Shiyuan, who is obsessed with practice, once again fell off the list.

In the checkpoint of the imperial examination, the township examination is really cruel. The normal admission ratio is 30:1, which is even lower than the admission ratio for the college entrance examination. And a very strong area like Beizhili has a large number of admissions, but the competition is just as cruel. This year's admission ratio reached 75:1.

In the middle of the night, the students took their leave and went to rest. Luo Xiangyang, Qiao Rusong, Ji Cheng, and Pang Ze stayed.

Zhang Anbo's hair was white, and the old man in his seventies drank tea with a smile and asked Pang Zedao: "Ziyu hasn't returned to Beijing yet?" ”

Pang Ze was in charge of the correspondence and said, "Ziyu has not sent back any letters. I think it's going to be soon. He also said to a few classmates: "Prince Teng, the chief soldier of Yulin, won a victory in Saibei, expelled Hu Lu, and was about to be made a marquis." There will be major changes in the situation in Beijing. ”

Qiao Rusong said puzzledly: "Wang Ziteng is Jia Huan's uncle. If he is a marquis, logically it should be a good thing for Jiafu? ”

Pang Ze sneered and explained, "Youruo, that's not necessarily. Maybe it will pull Ziyu's hind legs. Mr. Wang's political level is very poor. Can be called a pig teammate. If you are not careful, you will drag Jia Fu into the water.

Moreover, what the chief is worried about is the growth of the atmosphere of provocation by the generals, which is not a good thing for the country. In the land of Saibei, I took it from China and could not cultivate it, so I lost my son's life, and took it and occupied it, and a few years later, there was a rise and occupation of Hulu. ”

Ji Cheng is a newcomer and listens honestly.

Luo Xiangyang said worriedly: "Mountain Chief, are you the Son of Heaven in Shangshu?" ”

Zhang Anbo nodded calmly, "Exactly." I am the imperial history of the left capital, and I should advise the Son of Heaven. Don't provoke without permission. It must be decided by the imperial court. Otherwise, the side will be difficult to control. In addition, under He Xintai's leadership in the past two years, the treasury has only improved slightly. If there is a war at the border gates, I am afraid that the national treasury will be empty. ”

Several students were silent. If the treasury is empty, something will inevitably happen to the country. Either raise taxes and exploit the people. Either it is the indiscriminate distribution of salt, etc., or other things that undermine the system, and make money to fill the holes.

In the last years of all dynasties, this is the scene.

Pang Ze gently pinched the teacup, which was a habit he slowly developed in Jiangnan. In fact, he did not approve of the mountain chief to advise the Son of Heaven. Hmph, the heart of the Son of Heaven is known to passers-by. Emperor Wu opened the border. The consequences of angering the Son of Heaven are hard to say.

However, how can the mountain chief turn a blind eye to the Yushitai in charge? The temperament of the mountain chief will not turn a blind eye. The mountain chief is a good teacher, elder, and great Confucian. However, he is not the leader of a good political group.

In his heart, the change in the situation he thinks about is actually another thing: to seize the heir. This is the general framework of all political struggles in the court at the end of the Yongzhi Dynasty.

If you want King Jin to ascend the throne, don't trouble Jia Huan. The prerequisites are two. First, kill the King of Chu. Second, their own strength must be strong enough. The prince was knighted, which was definitely an increase in the strength of Jiafu.

So, how do I use this strength for my own use? So, do they want to push the process of seizing the heir?

In the sixteenth winter of Yongzhi, on October 21, Jia Huan took Lin Qianwei to the end of his trip to the south of the Yangtze River and arrived in Tongzhou in the afternoon of the same day.
