0938 Mulberry Returns
After the emperor's wedding, the situation in Jiankangtai City was also adjusted, and the main content was to focus on the queen mother's return to the garden and the emperor's personal government.
Regarding this matter, there are not too many twists and turns.
Although since the death of Su Zu, the Empress Dowager has been in the dynasty for many years, although there have been evil things such as Su Jun and Zu Yue rebellion in the middle, but at least until now, the situation in Jiangdong can be guaranteed to be stable, and even the situation in Jiangbei is much better than when Su Zu was alive. Even if there are too many details to say, on the whole, for the queen mother's years in the court, both the government and the opposition have expressed their affirmation, and there is no criticism.
The queen mother herself is not a person who loves power, and even before the emperor's wedding, she repeatedly stated that she wanted to return to the court. As for his maternal family, the Yu family, it is also a situation where the outside is light and the inside is heavy, and it is difficult to disagree with this.
After the emperor's wedding, several auxiliary ministers in Taicheng were ordered by Zhongshu Ling Chu Chong, Protector Mansion Wei Chong, Servant Shen Chong, Yangzhou Assassin Shi Zhuge Hui and several others. Wen Qiao was really old and sick, so he officially resigned and returned to rear, but the second son Wen Shizhi got the princess Nandi, the youngest daughter of Shang Suzu, so he still retains great influence between the government and the opposition.
At this juncture, the only one who was slightly disappointed was Guanglu doctor Liu Chao. Liu Chaojin was the general, and the Jinling was too guarded to supervise the military of the capital of the capital, left Jiankang and went to the capital.
Although the name is more respectful, but in addition, Liu Chao's power has been weakened to an extreme, and he is a general who has reached the extreme. Jingfu itself is the capital and the rear base of the Xuzhou Assassin's Mansion, and the military and political affairs are both under the dual jurisdiction of the Taicheng Zhongshu and the Protector's Army, as well as the intervention of the Xuzhou Assassin's Mansion.
And some people's livelihood affairs, including the business alliance, are subject to the jurisdiction of Dingcang. It can be said that military, political, and financial powers cannot be monopolized. So Liu Chao, the general, is completely a puppet ornament.
And the reason why this is the case is not because Liu Chao made any big mistakes, but because the emperor is in power. Liu Chao, whose image in Taicheng is almost the same as that of Bian Yan in his early years, can be said to have a pure heart and want to restore the imperial power.
The difference is that Bian Yan himself is a famous family, and he has a group of old township party supporters. And Liu Chao started as a small official, and served as a retainer from the Langya Palace, until Emperor Yuan Zhongxing in Jiangzuo, he was used as a confidant, and he promised himself to be a lonely and loyal minister. Therefore, when the emperor was in power, he was swept out of Taicheng by all parties with tacit understanding.
The names of several Taiwan assistants are different, although they are all respected, but the powers are also different. Chu Yu has been in charge of the Phoenix Pool for a long time, and in the case of the retirement of the old ministers, whether it is seniority or fame, he is a well-deserved head of the Taiwan auxiliary. Wei Chong of the Protector Mansion became a rising star with the respect of the national abbot, and he was able to record the affairs of Shangshu. Yangzhou Thorn Shi Zhuge Hui added to the service, and recorded two things in the book.
As for Shen Chong, he is also a member of the overhead. After Tao Kan's death, Xi Jian was transferred to the position of Tai Lieutenant, and the vacant Sikong was pressed on Shen Chong's head. In the early years, Su Zu once used the position of commonplace to persuade Shen Chong to give up making trouble, and now this name has come around and finally fell on Shen Chong's head.
Today's Shen Chong can be said to be the first person among the Chaonan scholars, even surpassing the predecessors of Lu Wan, Kong Yu and others. But in fact, the original Shangshu was deprived of his power, and he respected his position and did nothing. In addition to still being able to stay in Taicheng, it is almost the same as Liu Chao who was driven to Beijing.
Of course, Shen Chong's situation is much better than Liu Chao's, and now there are two people on Shen Jiaqing's position, Si Nong and Jiang Zuo are both held by the Shen family, and his in-law He Xi also serves as Danyang Yin. As for the Taige Palace, there are many subordinate officials, even if they are alone, they are already an extremely large force in the Taige.
Not to mention that the Shen family also has a Liang Duke Shen Weizhou who is in charge of the army in Jiangbei, especially the strength of the Huainan Army, which has even been recognized as surpassing the old town of Xuzhou, but it is slightly inferior to Jingzhou.
In such a situation, even if he was promoted and secretly surrendered, Shen Chong had no complaints, and had a positive and cooperative attitude. changed the style of local tyrants who were not lacking in arrogance in previous years, and was even praised by the government and the opposition as an example of the elderly and virtuous.
So at present, the entire internal and external situation in Jiangdong is headed by Chu Yu, Wei Chong, Zhuge Hui and Sima Chong, the king of the East China Sea who also leads the Chinese army, and outside, Yu, Shen, Xi and other families are in charge.
The arrangement of such an internal and external situation, although it can only be formed by the running-in and forbearance of each family, but as the person who controls the balance in the game, the queen mother also plays a great role. Although her mother's family, the Yu clan and the Shen clan of her son-in-law, are both in charge of heavy troops, they do not have the authority to directly interfere in government affairs, and the ruling families are all in-laws, and there are checks and balances between them, and they will not hurt the harmony.
In this adjustment, the original strongest Langya Wang clan in Yuefu was completely kicked out of the game, and the only one in the real high position was Wang Dao On the eve of the emperor's pro-government, he was promoted to Dazai from Taifu again, which was completely blocked Wang Dao's opportunity to return to Taicheng to govern.
But this does not mean that the Yuefu forces with Qingxu Qiaomen as the main body will be abandoned, and Zhuge Hui in the original Yuefu will officially take over the banner in the hands of Wang Dao and become the representative of Yuefu in the court. But although Zhuge Hui is also very capable, his prestige is not the same as that of Wang Dao, and there is no way to repeat the situation of the previous family dominance.
The loss of power of the Langya Wang clan is a foregone conclusion, especially the children of Wang Shu and Wang Bin, although there is no clear edict, but it has become a consensus and is imprisoned.
But as long as Director Wang does not die for a day, his family can still maintain a transcendent status. And although his later generations are not as beautiful as their parents, they have gradually stepped up to the position of 2,000 stones.
Wang Huzhi, the son of Wang Xuan, served as the domestic historian of Wu, Wang Tian, the son of Wang Dao, served as the Zhongshu Shilang, and Wang Xizhi, the son of Wang Kuang, served as the Taishou of Dongyang. There are also other children of various lineages, and most of them serve as subordinates between the pavilions.
This is also a tacit understanding of the gate lord's government, if it is not a life-and-death feud, it will not drive out all political enemies. If the situation continues like this, after several rounds of government replacements, when the atmosphere of political struggle is no longer there, among these children of various lines, their personal or descendant may not be able to appear on the stage again and obtain the high position of the three princes of Taiwan.
For example, the Wei Zong of the Wei clan in Hedong, the Chinese and North Koreas were almost killed in political struggles, and their descendants could not find a foothold after Jiangdong Zhongxing, but in the Wei Chong period, they finally came to the bitter end, united with the emperor, and once again obtained the high position of power, and could continue to enjoy the family business for decades.
But just because there is hope for the future doesn't mean you can take it easy. After Wang Dao retired, he almost disappeared from public view, except for some large-scale sacrificial celebrations that would appear in the front row, and only in some highly private banquets in the mansion.
As for Director Wang's home life, there is no shortage of curious people inside and outside. Although he is no longer in office, at least in recent years, no matter how the current situation in Jiangdong has changed, it is still difficult to completely dilute and eliminate the influence of his existence.
But in fact, Director Wang's life is very simple, every day at home to play the piano, cultivate interest, occasionally convene the children of the family to teach carefully, only push but not outdated, will come forward to meet some protégés who repeatedly ask to see. It's not like what people imagined at the time, who couldn't be depressed all day long, or who painstakingly planned a counterattack.
But as a politician and an important minister who created the situation of ZTE with his own hands, even if he leaves the current situation, how can he be completely free from the influence of the current situation. Without a lot of government affairs, Director Wang seems to be open-minded and cheerful, but in fact, the whole person is also aging rapidly, his hair is pale, and he has a lot of aging and illness.
If outsiders see Wang Dao's appearance like this, they may laugh at him after all, they will inevitably fall in love with the power position, and they can't be completely open-minded. In fact, Director Wang does not pursue complete open-mindedness, in his opinion, this so-called open-mindedness is completely irresponsible, whether it is for family business or national affairs.
But he is not unbalanced and lonely, but more of a sense of confusion that he suddenly can't find his own positioning and existential value.
Therefore, although Director Wang does not say anything about today's internal and external events, he also retains a concern. Although the Taiwan assistants are guarding against his return to the current situation, they will not completely block his news channels, so Director Wang's sources are also relatively fast.
On this day, Director Wang was still sitting quietly in the room, and the protégé hurriedly walked in and put a note on the desk, and saw the red pen mark on the envelope, Director Wang's eyes were slightly condensed, and then he raised his hand to pick up the letter and hurriedly glance at it, and then his face changed sharply, and his expression was extremely complicated.
After being silent for a long time, Director Wang said astringently: "Quickly attract Shenyou to see me." ”
Soon, Wang Yunzhi, who was dressed in a plain robe, entered the room, he was filial by nature, even if he went out early during the mourning period, but he would never be colorful on weekdays, in order to show his mourning, although he would never go out in the high gate, and he would not indulge himself at all.
Seeing Wang Yunzhi's more clear and mature face, Director Wang was also very emotional for a while, in recent years, the royal family has suffered many disasters, even the younger generations are inevitable. Among them, the only one he feels sorry for is Wang Yunzhi, among so many children, if you talk about daring to take responsibility and live up to your spirit, Wang Yun is the only one.
This should have been the Yushu of the court, the humerus of the country, but he was deeply burdened by his father, and he could only support his family idlely, and he couldn't learn it when he was full of stomachs.
After cleaning up his mood a little, Wang Daocai looked at Wang Yunzhi and said in a deep voice: "Jiangbei has passed the good news again, and Sang Zi has finally recovered for Wang Shi, which is really a great luck for the court." I want you to lead some of your family members to visit their hometowns, and if the countryside is stable, they should also think about returning, and I hope that my old body will have the opportunity to be buried in my hometown......"
When Wang Yunzhi heard this, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and Director Wang did not hide it, and directly handed over the information from Jiangbei to Wang Yunzhi.
After Wang Yunzhi finished reading it, his face was as uncertain as Director Wang, and after a while, he looked up at Director Wang, and his tone was cold: "Jiangbei has made trouble so far, and the raccoon dog is very difficult to contain." Could it be that Dazai thinks that as long as my family returns to the countryside, there will still be room for peace? ”
