Chapter 38: How to Divide the Weight with the King (22)

[I went out during the day and wrote it after I came back. This is the second shift of the day, and the first shift will be as usual tomorrow morning. After the last, I also asked for a monthly pass as usual. 】

As soon as the words of the queen fell, the ministers in the palace raised their heads at the same time, looked at the prince, looked at Zhao Ji, and did not forget to glance at the screen. However, they soon withdrew their gaze at the same time, and their eyes intertwined, and they both avoided each other.

In their hearts, they were suspicious, the prince looked fine, was the Son of Heaven's situation wrong? Or does the queen have any ideas?

Only Wang Anshi and Han Gang stared at Song Yongchen, and the status of Zai Fu gave them more privileges, courage, and experience.

Song Yongchen sweated like pulp.

It is a sin of disrespect to look directly at the Son of Heaven. The other courtiers in the palace did not dare to blaspheme, but Wang Anshi and Han Gang had enough power not to care. But Wang Anshi and Han Gang were staring at themselves, although the difference in angle was very subtle, but the pressure that came with the sight made Song Yongchen not mistaken.

If it was just Zai Fu staring at himself, Song Yongchen would not break out in a cold sweat, but what if he added the queen?

The Son of Heaven has nothing to do, it's the queen who has something to do.

The queen interjected at will, which was completely unreasonable. And he interrupted the feast with words, which made people even more suspicious.

When the husband is present, where is the wife's share in talking freely? On an occasion like a feast, if the queen didn't have the qualifications to listen to the government, she wouldn't be able to enter the Jiying Hall at all. Even ordinary people entertain guests, and it is difficult to see that the host has not spoken, and as a hostess, he takes matters into his own hands to drive away guests. Not to mention the queen of the world, the rules are a little heavier. But now the queen has made it, and she is still chasing a group of noble officials, including Zaifu.

Back then, Empress Guo accidentally injured Renzong in a quarrel with her favored concubine, and was deposed as queen. And what Xiang Xiang is doing now, if you really want to exhaust it, it must be more serious than the nature of the small friction in the family.

Don't you can't help but want to seize power?

Growing up in the imperial city since childhood, Song Yongchen was as familiar with the struggle for power as his own hands and feet.

The Son of Heaven is paralyzed, and in the final analysis, the queen has to be the master.

has been in control of power for more than half a year, and there is nothing to be missed in national politics, and militarily it is beyond the reach of several officials after Taizu Taizong, but the emperor always refuses to let go of his hand, and still listens to people read the chapter every day and interferes in state affairs.

But in order to prevent the emperor from worrying too much, the news of Liao's entry into the Kou was hidden from him. If you get the current recital, you have to try to change it again, so that there is nothing on it that will make the emperor suspicious. It's just that more and more lies are told, and it is becoming more and more difficult to make up, and in order to fulfill one lie, three must be told. Being cautious for a long time can indeed make people feel impatient.

If it was Empress Zhang Xianmingsu back then, she would have had a seizure a long time ago. Although today's sage is too far away from Empress Zhang Xian according to the impression in Song Yongchen's heart, his tough personality is far inferior to that of Empress Cao and Empress Dowager Gao. But people can also change, and if they can endure it until now, they can be regarded as patient.

No matter how you think about it, you shouldn't start in a place where Wang Anshi, an important member of the Pingzhang military state, is there.

If Wang Anshi stands up and the Son of Heaven cooperates again, the queen will definitely not be able to do well.

The queen is wrong about the time and place, and if she is in the harem, she can do whatever she wants. Now there are at least two Zaifu in the palace, although they have handed in the resignation form, but it is impossible for the status to be shaken because of one or two resignation sheets.

is that Han Shumi may be on the side of the queen, but there is also a Wang Pingzhang over there.

From his side to the back of the screen, I saw Liu Weijian's black face hanging, his lips were blue and white, and there was no blood, which was really a funny expression. But Song Yongchen can't laugh now. He knew that the expression on his face would only be a copy of Liu Weijian.

became the target of everyone, Song Yongchen bent down, glanced at the sand table, and then gritted his teeth, "The emperor has a will, and today's feast ends here." ”

Wang Anshi frowned, wanting to make some moves, his gaze swept over the other people in the hall, but he was a little hesitant.

Han Gang met Wang Anshi's gaze and nodded steadily and forcefully.

"The ministers obey the holy commandment." Han Gang turned around and saluted first.

He is not a loyal courtier, and he can't figure out the situation, so it's not a good thing to say it casually.

Wang Anshi hesitated slightly, and also saluted and sent the Son of Heaven away.

Just like when he came over before, Zhao Ji was carried out of the Jiying Palace. The queen pulled the crown prince and followed.

After sending the emperor's family away, the courtiers withdrew from the Jiying Palace.

"Father-in-law." Han Gang called out to Wang Anshi, who was walking in front, in a low voice.

Wang Anshi stopped one step earlier than Han Gang told him.

Of course, it is not so easy to go back, walk slowly, if there is something to greet, someone will definitely catch up.

Lu Dian's saw Han Gang and Wang Anshi stop their footsteps and stop outside the Jiying Palace. But a petty official like him didn't dare to go slower. When the Son of Heaven is uncertain, the Zaifu can enter the dormitory at will and visit the Son of Heaven's illness. Others don't qualify.

looked at Cheng Hao, and after greeting Wang Anshi and Han Gang, he left first, and Lu Dian, who also stepped forward, hurriedly saluted Wang Anshi and Han Gang, and followed the team.

What happened to the Son of Heaven? Lu Dian's heart churned.

It's just that Fang Cai didn't think much about it, and now that he saw Han Gang and Wang Anshi's reactions, he also knew that something was wrong.

The Son of Heaven must have wanted the two families to join forces to suppress Han Gang, but this is just in Han Gang's hands. It has completely become his one-man show. The intervention of the queen in the palace just now thought that it was to give the Son of Heaven a step to step down, but now it seems that there is another reason.

Lu Dian thought to himself. The queen has been pulling the side frame on the feast, otherwise Cai Bian would not have ended up so miserably.

This is not a feast at all. It was supposed to teach the Confucian classics, and then connect it with reality to govern the country with the Son of Heaven. But Han Gang is talking about his set of things, and then pulling on to the classics - today is "Spring and Autumn".

But the world doesn't think too much, Han Gang's victory at the sutra feast will definitely be spread tomorrow.

However, the scene just now made him feel that the situation might change somewhat.

……………………

"Yukun, what's wrong with the Son of Heaven."

When everyone was far away, Wang Anshi asked Han Gang, his tone was a little hurried.

Han Gang shook his head, "Son-in-law doesn't know. ”

The Son of Heaven has always been paralyzed. Unless the condition is getting better, there are more places in the body to move. Otherwise, even if the condition of the eyelids and fingers worsens, it will be difficult to tell the difference. He was so far away from the palace, how could he see clearly what had happened to the Son of Heaven?

"Father-in-law doesn't have to worry, can the situation be worse now?" He asked rhetorically.

Wang Anshi was not relieved by Han Gang's words, with Zhao Ji's situation, no matter how bad it was, there was only one possibility.

But he wasn't too sad, Wang Anshi was actually like many people, and now he was a little numb. After the sixtieth year, I don't know how many relatives and friends I sent away, and I have long been used to seeing life and death. There are already two emperors who have experienced, and one more is actually used to it.

The Son of Heaven was still breathing until this time, and the courtiers were accustomed to it. Every day when I go to court, I see the queen behind the curtain, not the emperor sitting in a precarious position. And after the collective deception of the Son of Heaven, it is actually difficult to say how much loyalty there can be. I hope that the bells of the large and small temples inside and outside the capital will ring early, and there will not be a few.

Wang Anshi walked slowly, and suddenly spoke: "Natural selection, survival of the fittest." I didn't expect Yukun to come up with such a truth after you learned the most things. ”

Han Gang didn't expect Wang Anshi to shift the topic to Fang Cai's debate, "What, father-in-law thinks it's wrong?" ”

"Nope." Wang Anshi shook his head and said very slowly, "That's right." ”

He walked forward slowly, letting Han Gang follow behind, and didn't speak for a long time.

The art of governing the country of the Great Song Dynasty is actually both Confucianism and law, and the king is domineering and miscellaneous. A familiar reading of the Bible and history will lead to this.

And Han Gang's natural selection is said to be the opposite of benevolence. But even in the Great Song Dynasty, looking at it, there are examples everywhere, and the way of man and beast coexists in the world. The evidence used to distinguish between Huayi and understand the difference between humans and beasts is actually more of a law that prevails in the world.

Whether it is physics or arithmetic, including the epidemic prevention method of gilding Han Gang's golden body, in Wang Anshi's view, it is still just a miscellaneous technique. The deeper you study, the more you deviate from the Tao that Zhang Zai is talking about. This is the reason why Wang Anshi has always maintained his confidence,

But when he looked at it again today, Han Gang really walked down the avenue.

Now that none of the new juniors have become successful, can they still expect themselves to continue to press their son-in-law?

After Han Gang came to visit that day, the words he left were tantamount to an ultimatum, Wang Anshi was stimulated, and he had already decided to follow Qi to the end.

The best opportunity to suppress the gas has been lost. Perhaps the opportunity never came.

Wang Anshi understands that today's feast is the same, although it ended hastily, but the one who won the most victory was Han Gang after all.

Such a result is a big blow to Wang Anshi and Cheng Hao.

They all wanted to give Han Gang a head-on blow in the scriptures, but no one could have imagined that Han Gang would expound the theory of 'natural selection and survival of the fittest' from the Spring and Autumn Period.

To tell the truth, Wang Anshi was also caught off guard. At first, he didn't expect that Han Gang had the talent to argue with the real Confucian scholars on the Five Classics.

When Han Gang mentioned the Spring and Autumn Period, Cheng Hao took the initiative to cooperate. But if Cheng Hao doesn't cooperate, Wang Anshi will also help.

The Spring and Autumn Period is about respecting the king, and Dong Zhongshu's most advocated celestial and human induction is the focus of it. How much of Dong Zhongshu's "Three Strategies for Heaven and Man" belongs to the "Spring and Autumn" component? What is "Spring and Autumn Dew" talking about? There is also the Spring and Autumn Prison Break, which almost raises the Spring and Autumn Period to the position of the head of the Five Classics.

The biggest flaw in qi science is in the induction of heaven and man! This is a common understanding among all.

Both of them have a close relationship with Han Gang, and others don't know Han Gang's roots, but Wang Anshi and Cheng Hao are very clear. They are all Confucian masters, no matter how Han Gang hides it, he exchanges letters a few times, discusses the classics, and his actual level in Confucianism has long been seen through by them.

No matter how Han Gang changed the annotation of "Spring and Autumn", he couldn't get around Dong Zhongshu at the least. Even though Han Gang can find a different way and have the confidence to explain the essence of "Spring and Autumn" separately, which of Wang Anshi or Cheng Hao is not full of confidence in his knowledge? What's so difficult about pulling back into the three strategies of heaven and man?

But the answer given by Han Gang was far beyond imagination.

The enemy is unknown, and it is no wonder that he lost completely.

What Wang Anshi was thinking, Han Gang could more or less guess.

But he doesn't have much to be complacent.

The degree of completeness of the learning he advocated, from the goal, to the program, to the means of implementation, and the learning route from shallow to deep, is not possessed by other schools.

Compared with all the schools of thought in the world, the foundation of Qi itself is not in the scriptures written by the sages, but in the whole of nature.

This is the gap between the times, and this is the difference in the height of vision. It is the accumulation of hundreds of millions of people in the world as a hole card, and the gap is far beyond the limit that Wang Anshi and Cheng Hao can imagine.

No matter how capable Wang Anshi and Cheng Hao are, they can't shorten such a distance.

Victory is a matter of course, the only question is the level of the practitioner and the number of twists and turns that will be caused in the process.

"Privy, please stay!" The voice behind him interrupted the stroll of Weng and his son-in-law, and Yang Jian hurriedly ran over from behind and called Han Gang, "Privy Council, the queen has an edict, please hurry to the Funing Palace." ”
