Chapter 1100: No One Doesn't Get Mud
As soon as the will of the seal was made, the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites began to prepare intensively. Normally, it takes at least half a year to prepare for the post-sealing ceremony, but because it is for the emperor to rejoice, coupled with the lack of national use, everything can only be done quickly and simply. The officials feared that if the preparations were too lengthy and the emperor died early, they would be guilty......
"Qin Tianjian has seen the day, March 17, the auspicious day of the zodiac." Jin Youzi brought back the latest news for the two scholars.
"There are still six days to ......" Yang Rong frowned, looked at Yang Shiqi and said, "Wang Xian's side, there is no news yet?" ”
Yang Shiqi shook his head worriedly.
"You can't pin all your hopes on him," Jin Youzi never thought that Wang Xian had such great ability, "He was strictly guarded by the people of Dongchang, I'm afraid he hasn't gotten the letter yet!" ”
Yang Shiqi sighed and was just about to speak, when the official document came from the middle school, and the three of them stopped talking.
The Zhongshu Sheren put a stack of pieces in front of Yang Shiqi, then picked up the ones that had been read, bowed and withdrew.
After the scholars retreated, Yang Shiqi picked up the top book and said to Jin Youzi: "Wait a little longer, I believe he won't make a mistake...... After speaking, he looked at the chapter, although he had grass in his heart, but his official business still could not be delayed.
"Hey......" Seeing that Yang Shiqi had nothing to say, Jin Youzi was discouraged for a while, sat down and picked up the teacup, regardless of the fact that the tea was already cold, and poured it down in one go.
At this time, he saw Yang Shiqi 'huh', picked up a piece of paper from the concerto, and was stunned there, his face gradually turned pale.
"What's wrong?" Jin Youzi put down the teacup and looked at Yang Shiqi. Yang Rong also looked at Yang Shiqi, and he didn't know what was going on, so that this talented prime minister who did not change color before the collapse of Mount Tai became so ugly.
Wang Xian replied. Yang Shiqi handed the piece of paper to Yang Rong on the side, Yang Rong also looked solemn, and then handed it to Jin Youzi.
Jin Youzi looked at it and saw that there were only two simple lines of small characters on it, the first line was the two dish names 'sea crab' and 'jujube',
A medicine name 'ephedra aconite soup', a total of 11 words.
Jin Youzi looked at these eleven words repeatedly, but couldn't understand anything, so he had to look up and ask, "What does this mean?" Could it be that the anagram is not true? ”
"It's not ......" Yang Rong is proficient in health preservation, and he also has dabbled in medicine, and said softly: "Eating sea crabs and jujubes together will cause cold and fever. And 'ephedra aconite soup' comes from the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" by the medical saint, which is mainly used to treat typhoid fever and less yin disease. After a pause, a chill surged into Yang Rong's heart and said: "And the symptoms of these two diseases are almost identical, the doctor will be crowned if he doesn't notice it, once the wrong medicine is used, the patient will be more auspicious and less ......."
"Wang Xian is instructing us, how to solve the big trouble of Wang Guifei......" After listening to Yang Rong's words, Yang Shiqi became more and more sure of his judgment and said: "These eleven words should be able to kill Wang Guifei." ”
Jin Youzi was startled, and then subconsciously said, "Why didn't he do it himself?" After speaking, seeing Er Yang looking at him with strange eyes, he swallowed and said, "Do we really want to do this?" ”
"Is there any other way?" Yang Shiqi said with a solemn expression.
"Wang Xian is going to drag us into the water...... Yang Rong sighed faintly: "My hands will inevitably be stained with blood......
Eryang is a determined, resourceful and decisive person, and if you want to understand the key to it, you know that this matter is inevitable. Originally, they still had illusions, hoping that Wang Xian would be able to take over this dirty work. But now it seems that this is just an unrealistic fantasy, and the other party is only willing to show them a way and tell them what to do, but they will definitely not interfere. Only do your own thing.
"Really?" Jin Youzi repeated that this matter was too contrary to his philosophy and difficult for him to accept. "Wang Xian is obviously just a gesture, why do you have to ask us to do it?"
"He's asking us to give our names." Yang Shiqi said with a wistful expression: "If we kill Wang Guifei, we can only cooperate with him ********, and if we want to deal with him, we must be careful that we will lose our reputation first." ”
"In that case, we can't do it!" Jin Youzi gritted his teeth and said, "Once we do this, what's the difference between us and him?" Do you really want to be complicit? ”
"But if we don't do it, we're going to be out......" Yang Rong stood up, walked to the door, looked at the slightly cramped cabinet courtyard and said: "Gentlemen, for the sake of our ideals, I think we can do ......"
"Our ideal ......" Jin Youzi was a little stupid for a while.
The ideals of the three are the ideals of all the scholars in the Cabinet and the common ideals of all civil servants.
Those who are familiar with history know that China has been a world of kings and scholars since ancient times. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was the scholar class attached to the princes of the Son of Heaven, and in the Han Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it was the hereditary aristocratic landlord class. After the Sui Dynasty opened the imperial examination, scholars gradually became the patent of the Shu landlords who stood out through the imperial examination.
In the Song Dynasty, the state power was controlled by these Shu scholars, and the emperor almost did not directly deal with state affairs, but handed them over to the prime minister, the leader of the scholars. This gave the Shu scholars great glory, a very high status, and countless wealth that came with it...... Of course, scholars and doctors who read poetry and books and consider themselves the children of saints will not think so, and their hearts are filled with a strong sense of responsibility to take the world as their own responsibility and actively participate in politics!
However, in this dynasty, the emperor of the Zhu family, who had an extremely strong desire for power, would never agree to claim to be a 'human flesh stamp', and the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister, monopolized power, regarded hundreds of officials as slaves, and trampled scholars on the soles of his feet. This naturally caused a strong backlash from the scholars, but for Zhu Yuanzhang, the iron-blooded emperor, the solution was very simple, it was nothing more than - kill! Kill! Kill!
Hu Weiyong's case and the empty seal case almost killed all the officials in the world, and at that time, because of the shortage of officials, there was even a prisoner under the hall wearing a flail to be tried, and the officials in the hall wearing a flail to ask about the case through the ages. But no matter how strong Zhu Yuanzhang is, he can't handle the country's government affairs alone, and in his later years, he can only set up a cabinet and select some lowly literary ministers as secretaries to support himself in handling national affairs.
After Zhu Yuanzhang's death, Zhu Di had to hand over the state affairs to the cabinet because he was fighting abroad all the year round and did not trust the prince, and the status and importance of the cabinet skyrocketed, so that the scholars and doctors saw the hope of regaining power.
Restoring the status and glory of the Song Dynasty's scholars was the dream of all civil officials. Regaining the status of Zaifu is the desire of successive scholars, but this road is destined to be extremely difficult, first, Zhu Di's desire for power is no less than Zhu Yuanzhang, second, Zhu Di trusts the noble generals who won the world with him, third, there is the ancestral suppression of 'future generations are not allowed to establish prime ministers', and fourth, the non-commissioned officers of the cabinet university have a low position, and it is difficult to command the civilian group, so if you don't use some extraordinary means, it is tantamount to a fool's dream.
Er Yang is very sober about the grim status quo, and they have long understood that it is impossible to do anything in the Zhu Di Dynasty, and they can only hope that after the new monarch ascends the throne, there will be a different situation. And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been close to civil officials, and he is the best choice for the new monarch in Er Yang's mind. In fact, the two of them have long secretly communicated with the prince, secretly helped the prince a lot, and have long expressed their loyalty. It's just that their methods are so superb that no one notices them......
But this is far from enough, if they want to turn the scholar into the actual prime minister, they must make immortal contributions on the road to the crown prince's ascension to the throne, so that they can have the capital to get the desired position in the future - now that the crown prince and grandson are assigned outside, once King Zhao has a queen as a helper, the prince and the grandson will face an unpredictable end. If this situation can be avoided, it will be an immortal achievement, and what about unscrupulous means?
Originally, several scholars thought that they would take advantage of Wang Xian's loyalty to the crown prince and borrow his hand to complete this matter, so that they could achieve their goals without being contaminated with cause and effect. But apparently Wang Xian saw through their intentions and didn't take the bait at all, just told them what to do and let them do it themselves!
In that case, you can only do it yourself......
The three scholars quickly reached an agreement, and Yang Shiqi said in a deep voice: "To accomplish this, take two steps, first do your hands and feet in her meal, and then wait for her to become ill, and then let the imperial doctor prescribe that prescription." Saying that, he looked at Yang Rong and Jin Youzi and said, "The Tai Hospital will be handed over to the old man, and as for the Jiaoyuan and the Imperial Dining Room, please leave it to the two of you......"
Pepper Garden is a garden after the emperor's bedroom, formerly known as the Five Thunder Palace, after Wang Guifei moved with the emperor, the original name was harsh, so it was renamed Pepper Garden.
"Jiaoyuan over there......" Yang Rong looked at Jin Youzi and said first: "I have a fellow villager who can be trusted ......"
"Leave the imperial dining room to me......" Jin Youzi gritted his teeth.
The cabinet is the emperor's secretarial body, which has always been located in the palace, and the three of them are all scholars for many years, and they are all deliberately operated, and they have deep connections in the palace, but they are not comparable to ordinary foreign ministers......
"Good!" Seeing that the two of them happily received the task, Yang Shiqi nodded heavily and said: "Let's go our separate ways, remember, you must be secret, don't leave a handle......"
Although the method given by Wang Xian can be said to kill people invisibly, even if Wang Guifei dies in the end, it is almost impossible to verify. But this kind of thing, everything is still careful, one is not careful, it is ruined, and the door is beheaded!
"Unexpected," Jin Youzi said hesitantly, "We are going to do this kind of thing that damages yin morality......
"If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell," Yang Rong believes in Buddhism, but at this moment, he said angrily: "We are for the national capital of the Ming Dynasty and for the sake of the country, how can we damage the Yin virtue?" ”
"It's also ......" After listening to Yang Rong's words, Jin Youzi felt much more comfortable, nodded and said, "Then do it!" ”
