Chapter 454: Bold (Part II)
Li Ping instinctively felt that this recital was framed, although there was no problem in the procedure, Han Qi's book was divided into two kinds, one was a public book, which was handed over to the Jinjuyuan by the post station, and handed over to the Zhongshu by the Jinyuan Yuan, or Xifu or Yushitai, and then judged whether to hand it over to the emperor according to the severity. There is another kind, that is, the secret music, Han Qi also has the right to play the secret, so the guest will bring the book, and then hand it over to the door envoy, and the door envoy will hand it over to the emperor. But can Han Qi say such a thing? So he handed it over directly to the Imperial Tower.
Li Ping didn't do anything wrong, and Lu Gong was embarrassed.
If you check it, if it's true, Han Qi will be miserable.
If you don't check it, Han Qi Xingjia will be impossible, but you can't escape if you make a threat, and now that the book is in your hands again, what should I do when the truth is leaked?
It is this kind of psychology that may have been vaguely said during the deliberations in Yanhe Palace, and even Zhao Ji didn't pay much attention to it, but it just reached Wang Anshi's ears, and this is the story of Wang An's crying complaint.
So although Lu Gongshu did not frame Han Qi, he did make a mistake, at least such a big thing, you are the middle of the imperial history, why don't you play?
At this point, all the people who defended Lu Gong's work were speechless.
But the question is, why did Shen Weigong do this?
The two were imprisoned in Dali Temple, and first Shen Weigong admitted that he instructed Sun Di to present the book.
However, soon, Shen Weigong immediately overturned the case, Sima Guang likes to make a name for himself, every article is published, or a letter, or a book, even if it is a chapter, he likes to send people to spread it in Jingfang. Sun Di deceived Sima Guang and Chen Wuzhang's recital, and Han Qi's sentence was on it. Then he brought it to Shen Weigong, Shen Weigong thought it was true, so he asked Sun Di to hand it over to Li Ping, the envoy of the door, but Sun Di directly pretended to be Han Qi's performance, and handed it over to Li Ping as a guest of Han Qi.
This is purely using Sun Di as a substitute for the dead ghost, and the case is overturned.
However, Shen Weigong's background is very troublesome.
He is the grandson of Shen Yilun, the founding minister of the Song Dynasty, and the son of Shen Jizong. Shen Jizong has three sons, Weiwen, Weiqing, and Weigong, and Shen Weigong is the youngest.
It doesn't matter, the Song Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, and I don't know how many powerful children there are, not to mention Shen Yilun, that is, Shen Jizong has been dead for more than 40 years.
Only a very small number of the sons and daughters of these powerful people have made a profit, and the vast majority of them have become unknown, for example, Zhao Pu has many descendants, and there are still many descendants serving as officials, but these are all low-level officials, how much influence can they have?
Just because Wang Ju reduced the ordnance supervisor, he didn't know how many powerful children were laid off.
But the trouble is that Shen Weigong also has a sister, that is, Shen Guifei of Song Zhenzong. It doesn't matter if Shen Guifei is concerned, Song Taizu and Song Taizong don't have many concubines, but Song Zhenzong and Song Renzong have many concubines. How many relatives do these concubines have?
However, the trouble is that this old man Shen Guifei is nearly eighty years old and still alive. People go to human affection, people are human affection, this Shen Guifei is about to become a living fossil in the inner palace. Hearing that his younger brother had an accident, he immediately held the crutches and found Mrs. Cao and Aunt Gao, facing this living fossil, even if he was arrogant, he had to respect it.
So Gao Taotao found Zhao Ji again, and repeatedly told him that it was okay to investigate, but not to be tortured. Moreover, Shen Weigong himself is also sixty years old.
It is in this situation that the Shen family has been overturned, and there are many people staring at it, together with Sun Di, the officials of Dali Temple do not dare to use torture, anyway, it is a dead end, what is it just a cane, once he dies, his family can still get the protection of the Shen family, so Sun Di gritted his teeth.
This situation is no longer adjudicated.
Wang Anshi will not agree to close the case, if the case is closed like this, there is no doubt that Sun Di was instructed by someone to slander Sima Guang and Han Qi. So who will be instigated?
The time also makes people suspect that it happened just after Sun Jue went to the book. Think about it, how many people can know about Sun Jue's book? Or maybe it's a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence.
So Dali Temple had to continue to be tortured.
And Shen Weigong was imprisoned, and another way was immediately unimpeded, that is, the Imperial City Division, without Shen Weigong's manipulation, the inner secret agent was also dispatched. Under the investigation of the Imperial City Division, one thing was found. Sima Guang deliberately circulated his writings, including three letters he wrote to Wang Anshi. This can still be made public, but the secret agents of the Imperial City Division found another article, which not only attacked Wang Anshi, but also spoke viciously, and was signed by Sima Guang.
Wang Anshi was furious, and Zhao Ji couldn't think of the role Sima Guang might play at this time, so he said: "This is definitely not done by Guang. ”
Even if Sima Guang dislikes Wang Anshi, he won't be so despicable.
Wang Anshi said: "Even if it wasn't done by Sima Guang, it was because Guanghao passed on private books to buy a name, so it caused the customs to follow suit, making the new law frustrated, and there were many different opinions, all of which were advocated by Guang. ”
Then let the spies of the Imperial City Division arrest the messenger and put him in prison, and investigate the person who has obtained it, where did you get this article? The Imperial City Division wantonly arrested the common people, and from then on.
Another person couldn't sit still after this arrest, and the Sifang Pavilion belonged to Zhang Ze, the official of the Sifang Pavilion. He heard a piece of news, saying that Shen Weigong had asked Sun Di to threaten outside that the prince would not be born soon.
This is another problem, that is, the early marriage and early childbearing of the ancients, open the history books, you can see that many ministers' first wives died early, and most of them did not die of illness, but died of difficult childbirth. Of course, this is not much documented.
There are also many people whose first sons died early, including Zhao's previous sons. But the later the marriage, the more peaceful the children, such as Fan Zhongyan. This was most evident in the Song Dynasty.
In fact, the reason is very simple, at this time, people who got married early, but the Song Dynasty regarded thinness as beauty, and the thinner it became pork ribs, the more beautiful and moving. One got married early and did not mature, and the other was thin for beauty, and everyone lost weight together and was malnourished. Moreover, the royal relatives are mostly the daughters of high-ranking officials and nobles, who do not work and have poor resistance. Such a woman, most of whom are teenagers, will give birth to a healthy child.
So Song Zhezong's biological mother, Zhu, who was born in a civilian family, lived one by one.
Anyway, several children born to Zhao Ji died one after another, including Empress Xiang's son.
If this is not good, it will become the second Song Renzong again. But Zhao Ji is still young, and the concubines in the harem continue to make children for him.
However, Shen Weigong made a prince born, and it will not be long before Zhao Wei gives birth to a son, that is, the son born by Zhao Ji in the future!
Before the Song Dynasty, there were many people who talked nonsense, such as when Zhao Zhencai was in power, he was very excited, dealing with government affairs day and night, with his body bones, where to eat, and soon fainted from exhaustion and almost died.
But the ministers didn't appreciate it, and with the abolition of Empress Guo, Fu Bi wrote that Zhao Zhen couldn't keep the teachings of his ancestors, disrespected his parents, and had lust. This is simple nonsense, Zhao Zhen's health was worse in his later years, but he was beautiful and worked hard to make a child, and he didn't see him faint.
However, Fu Bi is kind-hearted, and he is on the book, and he speaks on the table. First, he did not send people to the market to threaten to make the capital gossip, and second, he did not curse.
This matter is a big problem, even the old lady Shen Guifei can't shelter it.
Therefore, the thorough trial continued, and even the masters of the Imperial City Division were dispatched one after another, and as a result, the matter was more strict than imagined, not only the people, but also the military camp There were rumors that God did not bless His Majesty, causing the holy heir to be sterile.
Why doesn't God bless Your Majesty, that is, your emperor is not a good emperor. But now Zhao Ji is working hard and saving money, where is he not doing well, it is undoubtedly a change.
What's worse is that this rumor is not quite consistent with Shen Weigong, who gave birth to a prince and will not be in the near future, that is, in addition to Shen Weigong's curse, there are still people spreading rumors.
Wang Anshi was silent, this water is too mixed, anyway, he cursed Zhao Wei and the law changer, so Shen Weigong's back is definitely not the minister of the law change faction.
But who gave it to me?
Therefore, Zhao Ji checked Sun Jue's recital, because Shen Weigong slandered Han Qi after Sun Jue wrote the book, that is, he was inspired by Sun Jue. But Sun Jue, who wrote the book, did not come into contact with many ministers, including Wang Ju.
Of course, it is not Lu Gong's writing, and Lu Gong's writing is also very passive in this matter.
It's not Wen Yanbo, he is already the prime minister of Xifu, it's not worth it, it's not a faction that changes the law, he can take out Han Qi's Hebei pacification envoy, and it's Han Qi who resigned from this official position, and Wang Anshi took it away, but it's not worth offending Han Qi too much. Not to mention the prestige and huge relationship accumulated by Han Qi as prime minister for ten years, it is not trivial to say that Han Qi's children are in-laws, Han Gongyan's ex-wife is the daughter of Jia Changchao's cousin Jia Changfu, and his stepwife is Zhang Wenchang's daughter. Han Zhiyan is the daughter of Han Qi's brother-in-law, Dali Temple Cheng Cui Mian. Han Zhengyan's wife is Wang's great-granddaughter. Han Zhongyan's wife is Lu Gongbi's two daughters. Han Chunyan is the daughter of Emperor Sun Gu. Han Cuiyan's wife, Chen, is the daughter of Chen Bei, a senior scholar of the Imperial Palace. Han Zhiyan's son Han Ji's ex-wife is Chao Zhonghui's daughter, and his post-wife is Fan Chunli's daughter...... The background of these sons and grandsons is not counted, and there are daughters, the four sons-in-law are Wang Kecun, Wang Juzheng, Li Qingchen, and Cheng Huang, most of whom are people with backgrounds, and when they reach their granddaughters, they are mostly related to Wu Chong, Wen Yanbo, and Cai Jing's family.
The grandchildren have not yet come out. However, the generation of sons and daughters has already begun to marry.
The gentleman definitely doesn't like this kind of bonding, but people say that the door is right, but what?
But it is this kind of relationship, how dare Wang Anshi step on Han Qi to death? Originally, because of the change of the law, I offended too many people, but it can still be said that it is for the country. If you use this Xingjia, you will take advantage of it. Not to mention cursing the emperor for having no children, what is the benefit of changing the law? In order to step on Han Qi, however, Wang Anshi obviously wanted to leave Han Qi aside.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ji thought of a person.
First of all, this person is bold and scheming.
Secondly, this person came into contact with Sun Jue's recital.
Again, this person is not easy for others to think of, so he dares to do it.
That's Sima Guang, why did he do this, it seems to be confused, but in fact he is not confused, his intention is to provoke Wang Anshi, and Wang Anshi is very disgusted with Han Qi, and he just got what Xingjia, plus the curse of the capital, which angered Zhao Ji again. The emperor was angry, Wang Anshi was angry, and Han Qi would inevitably be arrested and imprisoned for questioning. Don't say it's impossible, and look at the ancestors who have no choice, they are still in prison, and the case is not closed.
Once Han Qi is imprisoned and the sky falls, I don't know how many people will go to school, and even resign and threaten, and in the end, it will become a possibility, like Lu Yijian, and he will not even stay in the capital when he is sick, forcing him to Luoyang for life. The change is over!
Even what Sun Di said about Sima Guang's five things was written by Sima Guang, and then sent someone to Shen Weigong's hands, and said something similar to the prince's life, which will not be long enough, Shen Weigong believed it to be true, and only then said some gossip in the capital, which happened to let Zhang Ze hear it. Zhang Ze is also reluctant to change the law, of course he will not tell the truth, but when the matter is big, he has to report it.
It was this background that Zhao Ji began to doubt Chen Xiang.
Don't say that Chen Xiang can't do it, even the prince will come out soon, why don't you dare to step on Wang Ju's feet in the court, and then lie down to frame Wang Ju. It's just that Wang Ju is clever and debunked on the spot. That's it, Wang Ju still can't say clearly.
That's the trick.
Then Zhao Ji talked to Gao Taotao, Gao Taotao was suspicious and a little annoyed, so he summoned Wang Ju and asked him. It is also because of this background that Gao Tao just asked, and did not blame. So Wang Ju felt suspicious.
Of course, this public case did not dare to publicize it, and even Wang Ju was kept in the valley.
After competing for the bid, the Imperial City Division was still conducting a thorough investigation, but Zhao Ji couldn't help it.
Sima Guangjin talked about the general knowledge of governance, borrowed the story of Jiashan Shangshu in the Han Dynasty, said that it was not appropriate to depreciate Lu Gong's writings, Li Chang, Song Minqiu and others, and said that Wang Anshi was virtuous, but he was ignorant of things and was ashamed, Li Ding was talentless, and Lu Huiqing was treacherous.
Zhao Ji was annoyed when he heard this, so he said: "There is fraud to slander the book, shaking the army, and saying that God does not bless His Majesty, causing the holy heir to be infertile, it is about the book of Qing." ”
If you are an ordinary person, you will be scared into a cold sweat. However, Sima Guang's expression was calm, and he said: "The book written by the minister, His Majesty has seen it, and the minister has not tried to show people with a song." ”
The book that Zhao Wei pointed to was the five things that Shen Weigong received, which was not a real sparse, but it made Sima Guang say that it was a real sparse. Zhao Ji sneered in his heart and said: "What Qing said, outsiders are ignorant, what Taiwan admonishes says, I don't know, but outsiders know." ”
You say what you said, outsiders don't know, but what you said to Taiji, I haven't known yet, outsiders know. The simplest is like the three letters written by Sima Guang to Wang Anshi, Zhao Ji didn't know about it, but it was all spread in the streets and alleys of Kaifeng. It's just that Zhao Ji is a man after all, and it's not good to tear his face and talk about it.
Sima Guang was embarrassed and couldn't answer on the spot.
However, although Zhao Ji was annoyed, there was no direct evidence, just a guess, so he took the initiative to change the topic and said: "Today, Sun Shuao's so-called country is what it is, and what everyone is evil." ”
King Chuzhuang asked Sun Shuao, I don't know the policy of governing the country (the widow has not been obtained, so the country is also, yes, refers to things, policies and regulations).
Sun Shuao said that the policy of governing the country will be hated by many people, and it is useless to sue you (the country is yes, and everyone is evil, and the king cannot be determined).
King Chu Zhuang said, can't it be done by me, the king, is it all my fault, and the ministers are not responsible?
Sun Shuao said that the monarch treated the scholars arrogantly, believing that talents could not be rich and noble without relying on the state, and the scholars also treated the monarch arrogantly, believing that the monarch could not have long-term peace and stability without talents. The country perished, and the king did not know why, and the scholars were hungry and cold, and could not obtain a proportionate position. Therefore, if the monarch and the minister do not agree, then there is no way to handle the major affairs of the country.
Zhao Ji used this allusion to implicitly say that the policy of governing the country will partially harm the interests of many people, so many people oppose it. But the country remained unchanged and went to perdition, and the scholars did not think about it. Why can't we unite as one to make the country rich and strong, and share the prosperity?
It means that you, Sima Guang, have this ability, why don't you put this ability on state affairs and engage in some intrigues.
As long as you, Sima Guang, corrected it, even if this is not blessed by God, I don't care about it.
However, Sima Guang came back to his strength, and immediately said: "However, Your Majesty should observe its right and wrong, and then keep it." But what the Ordinance Department did today, but Wang Anshi, Han Jiang and Lu Huiqing thought it was true, and the whole world thought it was wrong, how could His Majesty be the world alone with the three of them? ”
There was no medicine doctor, and Zhao Ji asked Sima Guang to step down.
However, Zhao Ji undoubtedly frightened the snake, and with Sima Guang's talent, he didn't immediately clean up some clues.
The clues disappeared together, and they couldn't be checked anymore, and if they continued to investigate, it was estimated that the whole world, including the Western Xia of Liao, would laugh at the early death of Zhao Ji's sons. Therefore, under the edict, it was said that the imperial city made Shen Weigong resentful because he was unwilling to ask for grace, and let the doorman Sun Di threaten that the prince would be born soon. was implicated in the Xingjia case again. So Sun Di was killed in the city, and there was an old lady behind Shen Weigong who pleaded for mercy but it didn't work, and he was also relegated to Hainan Island.
But no matter what, having this old lady is the same as not, otherwise Shen Weigong will definitely die this time.
At the end of the case, the court took Zhao Ji's face into account and only disclosed a small part of the truth.
However, this case was quite beneficial to Wang Ju, and Lu Huiqing said: "Your Majesty, this can see that some people do everything to suppress dissidents, and Wang Ju has been wronged." ”
From the three insufficiencies, to the prince's birth, it will not be long before the prince is born, so Chen Xiang can't get a fake fall?
And Gao's summons was also beneficial to Wang Ju.
Sima Guang said at every turn that I am a gentleman, selfless, and dedicated to the country, although it has confused many people, but if I think about it carefully, it is always a bit fake.
On the contrary, what Wang Ju said is more credible, it is difficult for gentlemen and virtuous ministers to learn from them, everyone is just a politician, at most they can learn from Lu Yijian, although they are selfish, but they put the interests of the country above their private interests, and exchange their achievements for glory and wealth, and they can be regarded as useful courtiers of the country.
Wang Ju said so, and did so, not only for political achievements, but also for the income brought by a few workshops, no matter how Wang Ju used it, but it was mostly used for the country.
Therefore, Gao Taotao's side also began to question Chen Xiang.
Chen Xiang himself did not do it decisively, and he was slapped in the face like this, do you still want to stay in the capital? However, Chen Xiang said that he would retire, how much he was nostalgic for the prosperity of the capital, and even connected a few resignation sheets, but he never dismissed, and simply threw the official seal back like Zhang Zai, or like Wang Ju, the affairs of the military weapons supervisor were settled, and he waited to go down.
However, how to deal with it has not yet come down, but after Zhang Ruoshui heard some news, he immediately said to Wang Ju: "Zi'an, congratulations." ”R1152
