Returning to the Yamen, Bao Heizi went back to the house and continued to read. And Mr. Gongsun, who is the master, came to ask.

Wang Chao said the words of the temple, immediately went to the kitchen to get snacks, invited Lord Bao to eat, and carefully served in the courtyard of the study.

Mr. Gongsun entered the study, saw Bao Heizi's face was dark, and said, "My lord, your face is sad, I don't know if you are sleepy because of dreams?" ”

When Mr. Bao saw Mr. Gongsun coming, he was relieved and said, "Chicken Sichen."

"After all, it's a family affair, or there is a saying that it is difficult for a clean official to decide a family affair." Mr. Gongsun said.

"Oh, according to Mr. Aren't only corrupt officials who can cut off family affairs?" Suddenly, a voice came, it was none other than Xiao Yu'er. After coming in, he said apologetically: "My lord, I heard Brother Wang say, are you looking for me?" ”

"Haha, yes." After Bao Heizi heard Xiao Yu'er's words, he smiled. Indeed, it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs. The only ones who can cut off family affairs are those corrupt officials, because people like it.

"Is that what happened? I had a dream yesterday," so Mr. Bao told how his dream was.

Bao Heizi looked at Xiao Yu'er and listened with relish, and suddenly asked, "Xiao Yu'er, what do you think?" ”

Xiao Yu'er thought to herself: "My lord, to be honest, our status is low, and there is a saying that if you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government." You're too worried. ”

When did they talk about chaos? Naturally, it is the government of the court, that is, the matter between the current saint and the Empress Dowager Liu. If outsiders hear about the royal affairs, they will definitely be killed.

Xiao Yu'er knows that this Empress Dowager Liu is actually not too bad, on the contrary, it is very good. If she's too bad to do it all by herself, what if she's going to do it all by herself? Or the later Cixi. However, after the Empress Dowager Liu, it was the prosperous era of the Great Song Dynasty, and there was a good emperor Song Renzong.

This Liu E is originally from Taiyuan, and her father and ancestors are all senior generals of five generations, which she made up after she gained power in order to cover up her family affairs. It is based on the same consideration that Liu E became the queen. always uses the beauty difference as a bait to pull a high-ranking official surnamed Liu to identify with Zong. She first looked for Liu Zong of Kaifeng Mansion to climb the clan, and Liu Zong said that he was from Hezhong Mansion and had no relatives in the palace. Soon, Empress Liu summoned Liu Ye of Kaifeng Mansion to send him to Kaifeng, although he was a famous family, but he was from Luoyang, and Empress Liu said to him anxiously: "I want to see your family tree, why am you probably the same clan." Liu Ye hurriedly said that he didn't dare to dare.

It was precisely because Liu E was not the broken household of the Liu family in Taiyuan that Zhenzong's plan to make her the queen was fiercely opposed by the ministers. However, Zhenzong still tried his best to oppose public opinion, and made her the queen in the fifth year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1o12). She has no maiden relatives. took her ex-husband Gong Mei as her brother and changed her surname to Liu. This marriage shows that marriage in the Song Dynasty has not paid much attention to the family, and it also shows that the remarriage of women in the Northern Song Dynasty has not been bound by the concept of chastity later.

Empress Liu is vigilant by nature, familiar with book history, court affairs, and can remember the beginning and the end. If there is something in the palace, Zhenzong asks, she can cite the facts and answer properly. Political talents are highly relied on by the true sect. In the spring of the fourth year of Tianxi, Zhenzong was seriously ill for a time, and the government was mostly decided by her. In the last years of Tianxi, she not only played a vital role in the deposition of Kou Zhun and Li Di and the handling of Zhou Huai's coup d'état. As a result, the absolute position of the post-party was established.

After Zhenzong's death, the edict ordered Empress Liu to be the queen mother, and the military affairs were important and the power was punished. Ding Wei strongly advocated the removal of the word "right". The king once said, "The title of power is enough to show the posterity." What's more, the increase or decrease of the edict has its own rules, so do you want to be the first to break the rules? Ding Wei just gave up. Next year. Changed to the Yuan Tiansheng, the word "Tiansheng" is "two saints", that is, Song Renzong and Empress Dowager Liu, two saints. Ming Dao is the second year name of the Empress Dowager Liu when she was alive, and the word "Ming" is a combination of the words sun and moon, and like the heavenly sage, it is also to please the Empress Dowager Liu. Since then, she has listened to politics for eleven years, becoming the first mother of the Song Dynasty, and the early government of the Renzong Dynasty is the product of her rule.

At the beginning of the political hearing, on the issue of further deposing Kou Zhun and Li Di, Empress Dowager Liu and Ding Wei were completely consistent. Kou Zhun was demoted to Leizhou Sihu to join the army, and Li Di was demoted to the deputy envoy of Hengzhou regimental training. Wang Zeng thought that the derogation was too heavy, and Ding Wei glared at him and threatened: "Do you have anything else to say as the master of the residence?" I'm afraid I won't be able to avoid it! Ding Wei also accompanied people to conspire to force the two to death, Kou Zhun asked someone to come out with the edict of death, but the person who came couldn't take it, he drank his wine as usual; Li Di was going to look for a short view and was rescued by his son. Someone asked Ding Wei how to deal with the theory of scholars if Li Di was degraded to death, and he replied scoundrelly: "In the future, I will record history, but I just said the last sentence 'the world cherishes it'." ”

In order to abuse power, Ding Wei colluded with Lei Yungong to take custody of Ban Lei, and asked the Queen Mother to send an edict: "The new emperor will meet the ministers twice a month." Major matters are decided by the Queen Mother summoning the auxiliary ministers; The general political order Lei Yungong was passed to the Queen Mother, and it was issued and implemented after the circle. Wang once pointed out to Ding Wei: "The two palaces are in different places and the power is vested in the eunuchs, which is a harbinger of trouble." He believes that it should be changed to follow the story of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with the emperor on the left and the queen mother on the right. Dante said that at this time, the power leaned towards China and the world, and he did not take Wang Zeng in his eyes at all.

Empress Dowager Liu was a bystander, and she knew that Ding Wei had all kinds of bad deeds in arbitrarily judging the government, and she also knew that Ding Wei's edict to her was actually setting her up. At that time, he was rushing to repair the mausoleum for Zhenzong, Ding Wei was the envoy of the mountain mausoleum, and Lei Yungong was the capital eunuch. Lei Yungong heard that the mountain tomb could be moved a hundred steps, so that the emperor could have many descendants, so he made his own opinion, and with the consent of Ding Wei, the mausoleum was moved, but unexpectedly, the groundwater rose and the mausoleum project ran aground. Wang Zeng saw the opportunity to tell the truth to the Queen Mother alone, and the Queen Mother did not hesitate to take this opportunity to execute Lei Yungong, remove Ding Wei from the position of Prime Minister, demote him to Yazhou Sihu to join the army, and finally take the power of the court back into her own hands. At that time, the folk song said: "If you want to win the peace of the world, you should pull out the eyes; If you want to be good in the world, it is better to summon Kou Lao. "Empress Dowager Liu deposed Ding and said that it was very happy, but she did not adopt the other half of the ballad, and she and Kou Zhun's political styles were a bit self-righteous, and the two could not cooperate.

Regarding the achievements of Empress Dowager Liu, "History of the Song Dynasty" has a generally fair comment: "Between the saints and the Ming Dao, the Son of Heaven is rich in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the queen mother is the system, and the inside and outside are solemn, the discipline is exemplary, and there is no major loss in the government."

Of course, in the more than ten years that she listened to the government, she also relied on eunuchs and indulged her relatives, which was often the twin phenomenon of the queen mother's dynasty, but after all, it did not reach the dangerous hài dynasty government. As far as eunuchs are concerned, although later generations say that she "makes orders out of the curtain and Weifu is fake for internal officials", Luo Chongxun and Jiang Deming, whom she reused, are not qualified to be included in "History of the Song Dynasty? The Biography of the Eunuch", it can be seen that its danger is not big.

As for her relatives, she herself has no entrenched family foundation. Her brother Liu Mei had died before she could hang the curtain. The only one among his relatives to be the ruling minister was Qian Weiyan, who married his sister to Liu Mei, and later married the powerful Ding Wei, who was a shameless person who specialized in climbing high relatives. He was the deputy privy envoy during Zhenzong's lifetime, and the queen mother was promoted to privy envoy after the curtain was lowered, but he was soon dismissed from the court on the grounds that the queen mother's in-laws "cannot be with the government". Later, he sought to win the phase twice, but he was strongly opposed by the court, and the imperial history Ju Yong even said: If the prime minister acts, he should tear up the edict of worshiping the prime minister. Empress Dowager Liu didn't dare to let him realize his dream of becoming prime minister.

The heroine listens to politics. In ancient China, it was not recognized by the orthodox concept, so Wang once strived for the word "power", and the Empress Dowager Liu had to promise at the beginning of the curtain that "the emperor will be in power in the spring and autumn, that is, he should return to power". In the seventh year of Tiansheng, Renzong had reached the age of the crown (twenty years old), but the Empress Dowager Liu had no movement to return to power. As a result, in the following years, the voices of internal and external ministers demanding Renzong's pro-government became louder and louder, and these voices were ignored. Empress Dowager Liu either ignored it, or transferred the builder out of the court for some reason, and held the power until her death.

In the records of the Song people, there is quite a statement that the Empress Dowager Liu is ready to follow Wu Zetian's example. Two years of Mingdao. She was going to wear the crown of the Son of Heaven to meet the Taimiao, and Xue Kui, the governor of the council, asked her: "On the day of the great confession, should I worship as a boy or as a daughter?" But she still wore the transformed crown of the queen mother and worshiped the temple. When she ordered the relevant departments to write "Xie Taimiao". However, it was resisted, believing that the Queen Mother's temple could not be used as a law for future generations.

Empress Dowager Liu also tentatively asked the minister: "How is Empress Tang Wu like the master?" Lu Zongdao, who was known for his uprightness, replied without hesitation: "Tang sinners, several dangers to the society!" She was silent. There are flattering ministers who built yì imitation martial arts queen stories to establish the seven temples of the Liu family. She asked Zaizhi, and Lu Zongdao asked her what she was going to do with the heir, so she had to give up. Cheng Lin, the third envoy, presented the "Picture of the Martial Empress Linchao" to cater to it, and threw it on the ground and said: "I don't do this kind of thing that disappoints the ancestors!" It is said that before she died, she pulled her own crown of the Son of Heaven to Renzong, as if she wanted to say something, and the minister Xue Kui thought that she was signaling that she could not see the emperor underground wearing the crown of the Son of Heaven, and Renzong ordered to use the queen's crown to enter the burial.

Although Empress Dowager Liu may not want to follow Wu Zetian's example, the family law of the Song Dynasty that restricted the heroine and her relatives from interfering in politics was very strict, and ministers, Taiwanese admonitions and other ministers were able to invoke admonition, so that Empress Dowager Liu had no courage even if she had her heart, so that she had to express her stance not to do things that would disappoint her ancestors. In her later years, she summoned Li Di, who had opposed her pre-government, and asked, "What do you think of me protecting the Son of Heaven today?" Li Di said convincingly: I didn't know that the Empress Dowager Shengde stopped here.

Empress Dowager Liu was a female politician who contributed to the rule of the Song Dynasty, and was known in history as "although the government is out of the palace, and the order is strict, Enwei adds the world". Generally speaking, her political talents and achievements are by no means under her husband Zhenzong and her son Renzong, and her personal character when she is in the dynasty should also be basically affirmed. During the Tiansheng and Mingdao periods, when she listened to the government, it not only restored the exhibition momentum of Zhenzong Xianping and Jingde, but also laid the foundation for Renzong's celebration of the grand event.

In the second year of Mingdao, Empress Dowager Liu died. Only then did Song Renzong know that he was not born to Empress Dowager Liu. It turned out that her biological mother Li was the maid of Empress Liu, and because of her bright complexion, Zhenzong let her sleep and became pregnant. After the child was born, Empress Liu took it as her own son and let Concubine Yang raise it. Since he was a child, he called Queen Liu the eldest lady and Yang Shufei the little lady.

Because of his low status, the Li family did not dare to theorize, and silently mixed among the palace concubines. People are afraid of Empress Liu, and no one dares to tell the truth. Renzong ascended the throne, and Empress Dowager Liu asked the Li family to guard the tomb for Zhenzong, isolating the biological mother and son to ensure their own power. At the same time, she visited her long-lost brother Li Yonghe, and let this small worker who had no food and clothing to chisel paper money become a third-class servant, and he was promoted step by step, and he was not very ruthless.

Li died in the first year of Ming Dao, and although she was promoted to the throne of Concubine Chen before her death, Empress Dowager Liu still planned to treat the funeral outside the palace with the gift of the palace people. Prime Minister Lu Yijian disagreed, the Queen Mother was very dissatisfied, Yijian said calmly: "If you don't think about the Liu family, I don't dare to say it; If you consider the Liu family, the funeral should be generous. The Queen Mother finally realized that she was buried with a gift and the Queen Mother's clothes.

As soon as Empress Dowager Liu died, some people added fuel to Renzong and said that Concubine Li Chen died unexpectedly. Blood is thicker than water, Renzong blamed himself in the next mourning edict, respected his biological mother as the queen mother at the same time, sent troops to surround Liu's first house, personally cried and opened the coffin for inspection, and saw that the biological mother was wearing the crown dress of the queen mother, and her complexion was like life under the maintenance of mercury, so she sighed that people could not be trusted, and said: "The eldest lady has a clear life!" Later, he was kind to Liu. This history later evolved into the story and drama of "Tanuki for the Prince", but the portrayal of Empress Liu as a typical example of cruelty and cruelty is too far from the prototype of the character. Although Empress Liu had her own selfishness and misdeeds on this issue, her actions towards the Li family did not extinguish her conscience. Those are all fiction jokes. (To be continued......)
