Chapter 805 Conferring
In fact, don't talk about Cai Bian, even Fan Chunren also thinks it's too disgusting to do this.
Wang Zhen's mouth opened.
These days, he is also sending people to investigate secretly, and the results found out that this little character is extremely bad, good dressed, good vanity, and living a luxurious life.
This is also normal, ** unrighteous, ruthless play, it's not that there are no good prostitutes, such as Wang Ju's concubine Qiongniang, such as Fan Zhongyan's Mrs. Ru, in fact, Han Shizhong's concubine Liang Hongyu was also born as an official prostitute, and she is still a prostitute!
However, there are very few such prostitutes, and can the words of most prostitutes be taken seriously?
Guan Jian's little heart is "ambitious", I don't know where I saw Wang Ju and Qiong Niang and his party, and once said: "That powder, how to get along with the slave family." β
Can this be the same, I think Qiongniang was also beautiful and fragrant back then, but with Wang Junan's expedition to the north and her age, how can she compare it with a little girl. And Wang Ju, the little concubine, treats people and things better than the lady of Wang Ju's family, and even Wang Zhen respects three points.
Compared to Joan Niang? Wang Zhen was also happy when he heard the report.
Maybe the other fans in her hall thought this sentence was funny, and passed this sentence out, only to be noticed by someone who cares.
But does this message work?
Guan Jian had to find out the fake Wang Ju, but there was a vast sea of people, where to find this person. Kaifeng Mansion arrested more than a dozen people who looked alike, and one birthmark was really born on the chest, but there was no scar, so he had to be released.
It's not that you don't check. It's too hard to check.
In order to check this person. Wang Zhen didn't know how much manpower and material resources he used. Even the power of the local snakes and ruffians in the various squares was used, but they did not get a useful message.
Wang Ju is very angry, but whoever changes him, he will be angry if he somehow gets a "son" over.
But he endured it and said, "Chief Prince, you take her fan, it's not a few words, it's more than a hundred words." Let's take a look, but what eyebrows are there. β
"Okay."
Soon after the court meeting was dispersed, Wang Zhen asked the officials of Kaifeng Mansion to hand the fan to Zhongshu.
Wang Ju opened the fan, whether this small order was good or bad, Wang Ju didn't care, but read the words. Several other officials also came up to watch, on the word Xiao Su is not as good as Da Su, but Xiao Su is still good, Cai Bian is not as good as Cai Xiang, but Cai Bian's calligraphy is not bad.
"It's like." Cai said.
Of course, it is, otherwise Wang Zhen would not have misunderstood.
Cai Bian lay on it and looked at it carefully. He also compared the pieces reviewed by Wang Ju.
Wang Ju is right, if it is easier to imitate a word, but this small order is relatively long, more than a hundred words, looking at it, Cai Bian found out the difference, he pointed to the Tong character and said: "Zhugong, you see, if it is written by Taibao, this vertical hook will be very urgent, and the angle is small, so the whole word looks strong and powerful, which makes people awe-inspiring." β
How to say it, maybe Wang Ju was influenced by the hard pen calligraphy in his previous life, the calligraphy is quite similar to Ouyang Xiu and Fan Zhongyan, it is thin, and it is strong to collect and collect faster, so it may not be so beautiful, but it has its own meaning of coldness.
However, the vertical hook of the paulownia character on the folding fan is closed gently, and the angle is relatively large, which changes slightly, and it looks a little flattering. This is also in line with the mainstream of calligraphy in the Song Dynasty, before Sumi Cai Huang calligraphy was not famous all over the world, most of the calligraphy was based on the font of the Tang Dynasty, mainly charming, including the famous Cai Xiang calligraphy, which also did not deviate from the category of Tang Dynasty calligraphy.
Cai Bian's analysis, everyone immediately found more than a dozen suspicious places.
It's very similar, but there are so many errors, it must not have been written by Wang Ju.
In fact, there is no need to analyze, and I know that it must not have been written by Wang Ju.
Cai did sigh: "Good intentions." β
This is to know that it was not written by Wang Ju, otherwise who would analyze it so seriously? In fact, it doesn't take much, as long as Wang Ju is forced to the court of Kaifeng Mansion and confronted the head of the line, Wang Ju's face will be lost.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Lady, isn't it," the little maid asked eagerly.
Xiao stared at Wang Ju, who was about to enter the Xuande Gate.
But the pair of lords and maids are now wearing thick skirts and thorns, and no one notices.
The two are really alike, but the real is real, and the fake is fake. Xiaoxiao watched for a while, and it wasn't until Wang Ju walked to the palace gate that she was gloomy.
The appearance is very similar, if there is a mistake, unless you look carefully in front of you, Xiaoxiao dares to run in front of Wang Ju and stare wide-eyed to see where the difference is? If you don't get it right, you will let the guards think that she is mistreating and dismembering the corpse.
Therefore, from a distance, there seems to be little difference in appearance.
However, it can still be seen that Wang Ju has been on the throne for many years, and even served as a county parent official at the age of eighteen or nineteen, and now the official worships the prime minister, and there are nearly 10 million people on the other side of the secret, all in his thoughts, so his demeanor is calm, and he has a look of not being angry and self-assured.
Just by virtue of this bearing, it is not comparable to the Wang Ju that Xiaoxiao encountered.
"Lady, how is this good?" The little maid was even more anxious.
If it's fake, it's fake, Guan Jian is his own little lady, which is equivalent to framing the prime minister of the dynasty, which is not a small crime.
Xiaoxiao also thought of this section, her face was discolored, to be honest, this woman's character is indeed very bad, a young man surnamed Qiu from other places was fascinated by her, and all the thousands of travel expenses brought were spent on her, the money was gone, and the people were immediately driven away, if it wasn't for the help of fellow villagers, the young man surnamed Qiu almost starved to death on the street.
There is also a member surnamed Liu in the suburbs of Kaifeng, who was also cheated of thousands of dollars by her, Liu Yuanwai's wife did not listen to the persuasion, and divorced his wife, but the money was cheated, people refused to disappear, and Liu Yuanwai's family also dispersed.
She has done similar things several times.
The nature of the mind can be seen in general.
But this is a complaint against the prime minister, alas!
Don't say anything about Qi people, even if in the last early dynasty, Cai did not leave with Wang Ju, and that minister dared to rush them into the palace?
Even Wang Ju himself, it is impossible to really treat himself as a common man and go to Kaifeng Mansion to confront Xiaoxiao.
"Let's go."
"Lady, where are you going?"
"Yangzhou. Suzhou. Hangzhou. The farther away the better, anyway. Xiao Xiao said decisively, she is still pregnant, but this doesn't matter, in ancient times, there was a set of contraceptive and fetal means, just want to have a fetus, it will be very difficult to get a bad person, but it is better than slandering the prime minister and arresting it.
"Alas. Who did this? The little maid said resentfully.
Who did it, Wang Zhen also had a headache, he didn't find it, besides, it was their pair of masters and maids?
Wang Ju didn't know that the pair of lords and maids were looking at him from a distance, even in person, and Wang Ju didn't know that the woman's name was Xiaoxiao, and he entered the palace.
Today is the day he told Zhao Maid.
Then let's talk about it, anyway, Zhao Maid has several teachers, Cai Qu, Fan Chunren, Zhang Dian and Zhang Shangying, all of whom are important ministers. There will be no minister who will be angry with him.
Wang Ju led the eunuch down to the Ying Pavilion.
Zhao Ji was also curious, so he quietly went to the Ying Pavilion. As soon as the eunuch was about to call His Majesty, Zhao Ji waved his hand, signaling these eunuchs and palace maids not to talk, and then quietly came to the outside of the window, wanting to hear what Wang Ju said.
Wang Ju has already started to talk about the history of the early Han Dynasty, which is very crucial in Chinese history, why do you say that, it is to further consolidate the county system of Qin Shi Huang, and lay the foundation for China to be unified for a long time in the future.
The system of kings with different surnames, that is, the system of princes, was abolished.
Compared with the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty began to pay attention to people's livelihood.
Controlling strong ministers with a weak monarch, so Liu Bang is not good for heroes, but he is actually wrong, mainly because Liu Bang's talent is bad, unlike Liu Xiu, Yang Jian, Li Shimin, Zhu Yuanzhang and Taizu, and even inferior to Zhao Kuangyin, so as an emperor, Liu Bang is actually very unconfident. And yet he was in control...... It's also remarkable.
Wang Ju said these four first, and Zhao Ji listened to them surgingly.
What is the atmosphere at the beginning of this lecture, and then compared with the general knowledge of governance written by Sima Guang, there are also many things that Chen Guang said, but it is fragmentary, and it can even be said that Sima Guang did not make it clear at all, or if he did, it was also plausible, or it was not comprehensive.
In the end, the two of them are different, Zhao Ji sighed.
It's not that the talent is different, Wang Ju has the idea of being a thousand years ahead, can he look at the problem from the same angle?
"Your Highness, do you know what it means to have more, the merrier?"
"Taifu, I know."
"It's Taibao, Your Highness, the title can't be messed up."
"Taibao."
"Your Highness, tell me about its background."
The history books say that Han Xin was worshiped by Han Gaozu as the king of Chu, but soon Han Gaozu received a secret report, saying that Han Xin took in Xiang Yu's old department Zhong Lifu and was ready to rebel. Han Gaozu used Chen Ping's plan, pretending to tour Yunmengze, and asked the candidates to go to Chen Land to meet. Han Xin saw through Han Gaozu's intentions and took the initiative to kill Zhong Liwu to visit Han Gaozu, but he was still arrested by Han Gaozu and escorted back to Luoyang. The two talked in the palace, discussing the talent of the generals, and Han Gaozu asked, how many soldiers can I lead. Han Xin said, Your Majesty, you can only lead 100,000 people. Taibao, is it that the more troops you lead, the more troublesome it is? β
"Yes, if the military talent is poor, the more troops you command, the more difficult it is to adjust, just like Gao Gong (Gao Zunyu), if you lead a few thousand soldiers, you can also be called a famous general, but if he leads the army to tens of thousands, then there will be problems immediately, and it will lead to a big defeat."
"That's the case, no wonder Han Xin said, the more I command, the better. Han Gaozu was not convinced, saying that the more troops you command, the better, why are you controlled by me? Han Xin said that His Majesty cannot command soldiers, but he is good at leading generals, which is why the ministers are controlled by His Majesty. And this ability is born with His Majesty, not something that can be achieved through acquired efforts. β
"That's about the case, but Huaiyin Hou's words are also incorrect, at that time, the three people, Han Gaozu, Xiang Yu and Huaiyin Hou, Xiang Yu's loss was too confident, and he was more than domineering, Wen Ren was insufficient, and he didn't listen to people, so he was virtuous, and he couldn't play the role of virtuous, and finally failed. Huaiyin waits for military talent, unparalleled in the world, but does things forward, especially in the battle of Qixia, if you want to be loyal to Han Gaozu, then you have no hesitation to support, either put up another banner, or maybe divide the world. But it's not that Huaiyin Hou doesn't understand, the reason why he looks forward and backward is because he is a rising star, there is not much righteousness, and there is no stable rear, so he wants to put up another flag, but he is worried that he will not succeed. But because of this forward-looking, he finally died tragically...... Or that Empress Lu didn't kill him in vain, because Huaiyin Hou did have an antipathy in his heart, at least when he was in the Qi Kingdom, he did consider rebellion in his heart. β
"That Taibao ......"
"Your Highness asked. I'm on the other side. Why did His Majesty summon the ministers for the first time. If the minister doesn't come back, he has to wait for the fiasco of Yongle City before the minister comes back? Your Highness, it doesn't matter, the minister is here to teach, what is teaching, is to solve doubts, if you have any ideas, just ask. However, the minister can also explain the difference between the two. The minister did not come back the first time and came back the second time. None of them were very important, but the first time they didn't come back, it was true that they had to wait for a few miscellaneous grain seeds, the further improvement of artillery and new machine technology, and the preparation of sufficient gold and silver. If it weren't for the fiasco of Yongle City, the minister would have dragged on for a year before he came back. But whether it is the first, second, or third year, as long as the minister returns, he must make several requests to His Majesty. β
"Request?"
"If a minister makes a mistake, a mistake is a mistake, and he can't make credit for his crimes. But back. If we can't revitalize the military, we can't preside over state affairs. Then it's better not to come back. But if you want to do these two things well, and you are guilty of sin, you must have the trust and support of your majesty to your ministers. So this is not a pinching and wait-and-see, but Huaiyin Hou's distinction is clearly a pinching and wait-and-see, and even has anti-intentions, so it seems to be the same, but the nature is completely different. β
"Oh," Zhao snorted.
Zhao Ji said dizzy, my son is still young, can he understand what you say?
Of course, Wang Ju knew that Zhao Maid was still young, but now that he said it, there would always be some images left, but when he left, who would say it so thoroughly?
"Your Highness, let's talk about the history of the early Han Dynasty. Some people say that Han Gaozu doesn't know anything, but if he uses Han Xin, Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and he will win the world. Or that Renzong doesn't know anything, he can only be an official, and he is a good official. This is not right, Renzong is not only a good official, but also has a clever way of being a courtier. The same is true of Han Gaozu, and the minister will talk about this way of royalty...... Especially Han Gaozu, internal governance is not as good as Xiao He, strategy is not as good as Zhang Liang, and martial arts is not as good as Han Xin, which is the real way to resist the strong with the weak. β
Of course, his situation is special, but as the son of heaven of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no need to fight as hard as his ancestors, let alone go to the front line to fight in person. But it is also necessary to control this way of countering the strong with the weak. The minister first said that I was in the court, and then I said that in the Han Gaozu. β
"The best example of my dynasty is Renzong, others don't say it, I only say that Lu Yi Jian Lu Gong, Lu Gong's movement is skillful, and domineering, how can it be compared to Han Gong and Wen Gong, but Lu Gong has not harmed the Great Song Dynasty throughout his life, but on the contrary, he is conscientious. How did Renzong control it? That is to use Fan Wenzheng Gong to impeach LΓΌ Gong, in fact, these impeachments are sometimes very wrong, but Renzong just took advantage of it and demoted him from the court when LΓΌ Gong's power reached its peak. But this is not the same as not using it, but suppressing the power in its hands, and it will soon be used again, so it seems that Lu Gong is also up and down, and in fact, Renzong has been reusing it. That's why there was the politics of the early period of Renzong. β
Zhao Ji sweated on his forehead.
Lu Yijian is for Song Renzong, Wang Anshi is for Zhao Ji, and see how Zhao Ji uses Wang Anshi, it is completely a grinding and killing donkey!
"I get it, it's about constantly balancing."
"Your Highness, it is not a simple way of balance, in fact, whether it is the three-province system of the Tang Dynasty or the Great Song system of the ancestors, it already contains the art of balance. The decision of the book, the deliberation of the door, and the implementation of the book. His Majesty has now picked up the three-province system, but it also includes the reconsideration of the two officials, and the Privy Council's restraint on the soldiers, which is equivalent to superimposing this balancing act. Therefore, it is overkill to further balance, and if you don't do it well, it will be overkill. β
"Therefore, the art of balance is no longer the art of a clever courtier for our dynasty. The truly clever art of balancing act is a reasonable system of emissible officials. The prime minister was incompetent, so he should be demoted immediately and make room for a virtuous minister to serve as the ruler. But if you have the ability, you can't depose him because of a small mistake or some rumors about Yanchen. Because of a policy, it is almost impossible to achieve results in a short period of time. Therefore, it is necessary to give at least three to four years, or even more than five years, to ensure that the policy of the ruler is effective. If the rotation is too frequent, it tends to lead to inaction, or inaction. β
"But there is time, if the time is too long, a certain ruler has been in the position of prime minister, no matter what kind of official system the Great Song Dynasty has, because the connections will be inclined to this famous ruler, there will be a powerful minister. For example, Han Gong is for His Majesty, as well as for Duke Wen and Fu Gong, all because of his deep qualifications and too long a reign, which has become the biggest constraint to His Majesty's actions. This is not bad, if it is the kind of system of the Tang Dynasty, it is easy to produce traitors like Li Linfu. β
"Taibao, but I have also served as the ruler of Wang Dan and Wang Xianggong for a long time......," Zhao retorted boldly.
"So I have always admired Wang Xianggong, but in fact, Wang Xianggong is mild-mannered. He is a humble gentleman. So it's a long time. It did not form the harm of the Great Song Dynasty. In fact, he also didn't dare to forge ahead because of the long time, so he didn't dare to speak before he died. β
"What's the best time to go?"
"A humble gentleman like Wang Dan Xianggong should not last more than ten years, and a radical minister like me and Han Gong. The time cannot be more than six years, but not less than three years. But there is another one, within three years, we must come up with a big measure to benefit the country and the people, whether it is a quiet measure like Fang Du Li Xin, or a move like Jiefu Gong and me, at least one must be come up. Of course, it is very difficult to change the country quietly like Fang Du Li Xin, and the longer the country is founded, the more difficult it becomes. Because the relationship between various interests has deepened, there is no need to take action. If there is, it will inevitably hurt the interests of some people, so the longer the country is founded, the more controversy will arise when big measures are introduced. β
"However, as a ruler, we cannot use the interests of the country to win the hearts and minds of the people, and even if there is a dispute, as long as it does not exacerbate serious contradictions, it must be implemented. If not, the chief must be replaced. If there is, then it can be given six to ten years of deacon, as the minister said. If it is a great talent, it is not possible to give six years, but it is better to release it in three or four years. β
"Hey," Zhao Maid was strange, and Zhao Ji outside the window was also strange.
"For example, Renzong will be the first to execute Lu Yijian for three to four years, that is, find a reason to release it, and after two or three years, it will be reactivated, Your Highness, do you understand the minister's intentions? It seems to be released, but it is actually a kind of protection in disguise, otherwise if the time lasts for a long time, it will either buy people's hearts with the interests of the country, such as Renzong used Han Gong and Fu Gong and others in the late period, and the reputation of the outside world is excellent, but the country has a serious deficit. Either the power will be retracted and the power will be produced, of course, the other scholars will definitely not be happy. Therefore, once every three or four years, it is a kind of protection. In this way, if there is not a minister who can hold too much power in his hands, there will be no powerful ministers, and even if he is a traitor, no matter how well he is disguised, he will not be able to harm the country. This is Renzong's technique of resisting the strong with the weak. β
Don't mention Li Shimin, if it is Li Shimin, what checks and balances are needed?
But in fact, it is Li Shimin, and he still needs some balancing skills.
As an imperial system, this imperial courtier's technique is the key to the key to health.
"But how do you discern talent?" Zhao Maid asked, although Wang Ju said something deep, but he tried to say it in the most simple language, and Zhao Maid was not completely incomprehensible.
The so-called discernment is to recognize people, and this one is also very important!
"Discerning? This is very difficult, but since His Highness asked, the minister will also talk about it. It is divided into two parts, one is the mind, or what everyone calls ethics, but ethics is only a part of it, and this mind not only has ethics, but also character. But it is also the most difficult to screen, some ministers are very bad at first, but the further the better, such as Jiang Zhiqi, who revealed Ouyang Xiuzhi's privacy when he was the first emperor, whether there is or not, this is by no means a gentleman's doing, but now, he has become an important minister of my dynasty's financial management. However, some ministers have a good beginning, but the older they get, the more depraved they become. β
"However, there are a few types of people who should not be reused, those who like to talk flatteringly, this kind of minister is either a honey-talking sword, or a flattering minister, such as Wang Qinruo, not without talent, but if it is not for Wang Dangong in the court, Zhenzong barely holds it, otherwise under Wang Qinruo's bewitchment, my dynasty will begin to decline when Zhenzong is in power. There are also those who are content to enjoy, such ministers are better if they have a rich family, but if they are not rich, nine out of ten people will be corrupt officials. Those who dare not take responsibility, dare not take responsibility, and do not make decisions when things are done, how to become important ministers of the country? If it is too rigid, it is easy to use it by stiffening the abdomen. β
"Yin and yang?"
"It's okay, but it's better to be rigid than soft. For example, the minister said that the rigid belly for self-use, the Duke of Guanlai and the Duke of Jiefu are both a little rigid for their own use, but this kind of person is often the most daring, especially when the country is in crisis, such as the Duke of Kolai of the Alliance of the Yuanyuan, and the Duke of Jiefu who was in serious financial difficulties at the beginning of His Majesty's accession to the throne. However, if it is a peaceful time, these people often use their own stomachs, which leads to many conflicts in the court. β
Zhao Ji let out a long breath, so he can't blame me for not reusing Wang Anshi.
Can that be the same?
What Wang Ju said is reuse, not use, let alone let Wang Anshi completely retire.
"What about Wei Zheng?"
"Wei Zhengzhi's rigidity, few can match it, but is Wei Zheng just belly for his own use? Although he is rigid, he can listen to other people's opinions and be tolerant, but how many such ministers can there be through the ages? β
"Or like the Taibao."
Wang Ju smiled, I'm not a gang minister myself, just a protective color.
In terms of actual scheming, Wang Ju is getting darker and darker now, but Wang Ju will never admit it...... (To be continued.) )
