Seven hundred and ninetieth eight chapters eve(1/2)
In that year, the army was flooded, and many roads from the two capitals, from Jianghuai, or even from two saws, were hit by floods?
At this time, I saw the role of river engineering. Although I spent a lot of money, the scope of governance was not only the Yellow River, but also many river basins of the Huai River, and there was no miserable situation of flooding. [Read.baoliny.] Waterlogging is inevitable. I sent envoys to see, evade relief, and dismiss the taxes and rents.
A fair evaluation, Zhao Shu is not evil either.
It is quite OK for the people, and I also try to make some small-scale improvements, just because I am not good at health. After gradually getting familiar with government affairs, I have no healthy body support and cannot reform the current problems that are getting worse and worse, which leads to the worse and worse situations. Sima also asked him to edit historical books barely, etc.
But when Zhao Zhen is involved, he will be evil. Without Zhao Zhen, he will not be able to justify his throne, and the more he goes, the more he becomes nervous. Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu cannot be called a villain, but Zhao Shu was supported by them, so he had to protect Zhao Shu's words and deeds. Without Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu's maintenance, the ministers of the two prefectures would not be more and more excessive. Without Zhao Shu's drag, Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu would also want to have a face. Once the three of them were combined, the result was good and they went into the sea together. What they did was more and more shameless.
The selfless and selfless Zhao knew Chengdu, and the Shu people were very happy. Zhao Zhen wrote a special edict saying that Zhao was Chengdu, which was the rule of Zhonghe.
Seeing that the emperor was normal, Han Qi and Ouyang Xiuchang breathed a sigh of relief.
I was speechless in the past few years. It doesn’t matter if I clean up the mess for Zhao Shu. Ask yourself, I am ashamed of some of the things I did. Do you want to do it? This is Zhao Shuchao. If it were in Zhao Zhenchao, then I would be dead.
The two of them longed to see a normal emperor.
It took me a month to normal. In February of the second year of Zhiping, it was abnormal again.
Before Zhao Shu officially became the prince, he was repeatedly evil. Zhao Zhen was confused and thought of his three sons who died too early from time to time. If his son was alive, these things might not have happened. Moreover, before he died, the ministers began to betray him, thinking of the sadness. Sometimes they would cry secretly. Is it wrong for Zhao Zhen to feel sad?
But it became one of the reasons why Zhao Shu was angry.
Seeing Zhao Zhen’s sadness, some of his close eunuchs and palace concubines said a fair word. It seems that this prince may not be reliable. Anyway, there are many children in the royal family, so it’s better to change another one. It’s really not possible. Add a prince to be the reserve candidate. Comparing each other can make it safer.
The facts are right. No prince will do anything like Zhao Shu like this.
One or two ministers were dissatisfied with Zhao Shu's approach, so they entered obscure words. These words were placed on Zhao Zhen's couch. Zhao Shu was seriously ill and Empress Dowager Cao was in charge of the government. At first, Empress Dowager Cao was afraid of accidents in the country and wanted to protect Zhao Shu. Of course, she must regret it now. Empress Dowager Cao dug out this secret past and told the masters of the Secretariat that he was very stupid and naive, and said: "After the official saw these two words on the couch, they burned them."
Did Zhao Shu see, or to put it another way, is Empress Dowager Cao telling the truth? It is mostly lies to shock ministers and not to talk nonsense outside. To abide by Zhao Shu's throne, she has achieved her goal. When the throne is at peace, retribution will come.
At this time, Empress Dowager Cao thought the most about the story of the farmer and the snake.
No one expected that at that time. After hearing this, the ministers of the two prefectures were nodding, who dared to ask?
Therefore, whether there is this text or not is still a mystery, that is, whether Zhao Shu has really seen it is still a mystery.
After more than a year, everyone almost forgot about it, and Zhao Shu turned it out again.
After Zhao Shu recovered from his illness, he asked Cai Xiang how many people he was. How was this person? Han Qi said it was good to be honest. Although Cai Xiang and Zheng Lang were good friends, they were a good man, who only did things but didn't speak. Zhao Shu was um and said nothing.
The three officials were the national plan, so it was normal to ask questions. Han Qi did not think of anything else at that time.
In February of that year, Cai Xiang took a day off, and Zhao Shu actually found out in the palace. He changed his color and asked the Zhongshu how to count the money and valleys in the world: "The three officials are in charge of the world's money and valleys, and there are many affairs. In the ten days, Xiang has four or five people, so why not use people?"
Han Qi was stunned when he heard this. Why did Cai Xiang offend the emperor?
There are two reasons. First, Cai Xiang has a good relationship with Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu. Second, the country's finances are inconvenient. Cai Xiang can bear half of the responsibility. Once Cai Xiang leaves, if the three departments shake this burden, I don't know how much controversy it will cause.
Han Qi could not think of the reason why Zhao Shu attacked Cai Xiang for a while, and said: "The three officials have no shortcomings and no name will be eliminated. If you ask for a person who has known the name of Xiang, you may not be able to find it."
Ouyang Xiu and Cai Xiang often interacted with each other, but knew the whole story, saying, "Xiang's mother is over 80 years old and she is sick. Cai Xiang must not take care of her. This is also the filial piety of the son. Besides, Cai Xiang only asked for leave from the court, did not miss her daily life, and did not delay her official affairs. She should not be dismissed for both public and private."
Revealed temporarily.
Cai Xiang was very miserable and did not dare to ask for leave to serve his mother again, so he had to work while working and go home to perform his filial piety in the evening. But Zhao Shu stared at Cai Xiang. In the spring, Xixia attacked the northwest again. Zhao Shu began to get angry and said that border affairs were about to prosper and that the army must not be prepared, and the three departments should choose the people early.
Han Qi felt strange, so he asked Cai Xiang himself, Junmo, what have you done before, which made the emperor unhappy. Cai Xiang was also puzzled, I was too lazy to say anything, what could I do. Han Qi was even more strange, so he asked someone to ask the palace.
Only then did I know that the emperor was thinking about the words. Han Qi didn't know whether there was this word, and whether Zhao Shu had read it or not. The reliable news in the palace said that Empress Dowager Cao did not lie, but Zhao Shu came to the palace for the first time because there were many eunuchs' names, and they burned them without even reading it.
It is not clear whether it is true. However, Empress Dowager Cao took the matter out, causing Zhao Shu to miss it again, and then became suspicious. He heard from his subordinates that Cai Xiang had objections when he was appointed as the emperor's heir, but he had no idea what was the truth. So he became suspicious of Cai Xiang and hated Cai Xiang.
When this incident reached Zhengzhou, Zheng Lang sighed and sighed for Empress Dowager Cao. A poor woman, Zhao Zhen did not receive Zhao Zhen's favor during his lifetime, and was insulted by his adopted son many times after his death. Although he was pitiful, he also asked for it. There was also a sarcasm, and with this point, he looked down on Zhao Shu. There is a metaphor. Wei Zheng had repeatedly suggested that Li Jiancheng kill Li Shimin, how did Li Shimin deal with Wei Zheng? But when encountering such a narrow-minded person, the wisest way is to avoid provoking him, and you can still end up in peace.
Han Qi asked Cai Xiang again, and Cai Xiang also answered honestly that he had said something dissatisfied with Zhao Shu's eighteen words, but did not hand over a few words to the palace. Han Qi also believed that Cai Xiang had no need to lie to him about this matter, so he asked Zeng Gongliang and Ouyang Xiu to enter the palace. Zeng Gongliang still admired Cai Xiang, and they were all participants in the Fanlou Banquet. Han Qi confronted Zhao Shu, and Zhao Shu replied: "There is no words inside, but I heard this secret memorial in Qingning Palace."
All three of them knew in their hearts. It turned out that the emperor was just a speculation. Han Qi said: "The matter is ambiguous. If the truth is not clear, please make an investigation. If you are punished for Feiyu, you will fall into it in the future, and it will be difficult for the right person to establish a correct person."
Zhao Shu rolled his eyes, can you still be called a righteous person now?
Han Qi cannot be called a righteous person, Zeng Gongliang can be called a righteous person, and said on the side: "The capital has always been a favorite to create slander. If one person creates a falsehood and spreads it to others, it will be considered true. If a loyal and kind frames the loyal because of suspected words, it will not be a disaster for the ministers, but will also be a disaster for the country."
It does not conform to the family rules of the ancestors. The country’s state’s words are heard by the ministers, but it is not Xu Fengwen’s directors, nor is it Xu Fengwen punishing ministers.
Zhao Shu replied coldly: "Although you don't see the words, how can Zeng Qing protect him from it?"
Zeng Gongliang didn't know how to answer. Whether there was this secret memorial was between two things. Even if there was, it would be burned, and it would be difficult to explain clearly. Ouyang Xiu said that he spoke very well. Without Ouyang Xiu's help, Han Qi might not be able to move forward now.
He said: "Your Majesty, there should be no trace to be found. Even if there are traces to be found, it is difficult to guarantee people to believe it. The simplest example is that in the previous dynasty, Xia Feng wanted to harm Fu Bi, and asked his maids and concubines to learn Shi Jie's font. After a long time of study, he pretended to write a curse for Shi Jie. He was wise and wise. Bi got the 3rd level of the prefecture. There was a fake writings from the ministers. He said that he would reduce the eunuchs in the palace and spread it to the public in China and abroad. The internal ministers saw that all the ministers were all in harmony. After only six days, Yang Yongde was defiled and dismissed. He stopped the head of Tongzhou and others. It was a matter of five years since he found that the ministers were innocent. Besides, Cai Xiang's font, the nephew, did not say that there was no text, but even if there was a text, he should distinguish the authenticity. Your Majesty should not doubt it.
Zhao Shu asked arrogantly: "Why are rumor-makers not as good as others?"
Ouyang Xiu almost fainted. Why is it not as good as others? It is because you have to doubt it. You are happy with the superiors and favor it. Since you have to doubt Cai Xiang, others will naturally use Cai Xiang to spread rumors and cause trouble in order to vote on your preferences.
If Zhao Zhen was here, Ouyang Xiu would dare to say it. But facing Zhao Shu, although Ouyang Xiu had the answer, would he dare to say it?
The three of them walked out and met Cai Xiang, an old friend. There was no way, so they were ready to pack their luggage. But for everyone getting along well, I will find you a good place to put it outside in Hangzhou.
But this incident had some very bad consequences. Zhao Shu's actions allowed Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu to see a terrible truth. Don't think that Zhao Shu was a sick man. This was an extremely cold guy. Shunchang died! If you want to keep this position, you have to obey Zhao Shu.
Cai Xiang is down, Lu Gongbi is up.
Lu Gongbi didn't expect anything else, so he just went to the court. When Zhao Shu reported the matter, he said: "In the past years, when I was in a vassal residence, the officials asked for a change of horses in the palace. You said that I was close to the court and had good expectations. You should avoid suspicion. You should not let me go to the throne.
Lu Gongbi was also a little stunned. Can the three officials and the great stewards of a country be responsible for these trivial matters?
Although I refused this, Lu Gongbi said at that time that Zhao Shu was a relative of the emperor and was full of hope. This made Zhao Shu happy for most of the time and still remember it freshly. Today I will repay you. B. Lang Bi's lips trembled. After thinking for a long time, he could only bow his head and thank him.
Zhao Shu also said: "You have succeeded Cai Xiang as an envoy, and Xiang's arguments are not decided by the times, and there are many remaining things left. How can you deal with it?"
Lu Gongbi replied honestly: "Xiang is diligent in political affairs, and has not made any mistakes in the new situation. Those who are afraid of speaking are reckless.
Zhao Shu was not angry either. He knew his hero with a keen eye when he was in trouble, and this was even more of an elder's words. It was not bad. I used an elder as the Sansi envoy. This made people speechless. The Sansi envoy said that he was obedient and was a housekeeper. To put it bluntly, he was a business manager for the court. If he wanted to run it, he had to understand the economy. Cai Xiang was not good, and Lu Gongbi was not good either. If he wanted to preside over the Sansi envoy, he had to be like Zhang Fangping, and even if Lu Huiqing was not important. The ones he was most afraid of were elders like Cai Xiang.
But it was not enough. Zhao Shu stuffed a corrupt official Pi Gongbi into the Sansi, a former aide Wang Guangyuan and others who were very good at stoking the camp. The Sansi became even worse and the black hole became bigger and bigger, but few people still thought of it.
With Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu working together, Zhao Shu got almost every wish, and that big controversy came. This was the darkest moment in the era of Emperor Yingzong of Song Dynasty. At the fourth update! Before that incident came, Zhao Shu had a normal period. In April, Zhao Shu summoned all the assistant ministers and asked: "What is the Golden Valley in the world?"
Han Qi was most afraid of asking this. However, if the person asked was Zhao Shu, he would be very happy. If he became an emperor, he would be the emperor. Why do you have to do those inexplicable things? Answer one by one, whether it is true or false, or some dare not answer. The question gradually became serious and he dared not deceive, so he had to omit it. In short, the situation was not very good. Zhao Shu asked again: "Why is the cost of redundant soldiers more than the past?"
After all, military spending is the biggest black hole.
Ouyang Xiu said: "Since the Western Affairs Office, border ministers have been in garrison, and since the number of troops has been increased, the annual expenses will be greater."
Zhao Shu had no choice but to be helpless. Xixia was in trouble and kept invading the border, so he had to be careful. But why did it cost so much money just to prevent it? Then he thought of the man in Zhengzhou. What would he do if he had done? Zhao Shu also knew himself and thoughts passed by Zheng Lang. He quickly stopped thinking about it. He sighed: "The ancestor Suihuai is like this, and there are still stubborn people."
Han Qi replied: "The country intends to calm the people. Therefore, it shows the general and embraces it."
It is good to calm the people, and peace is even more valuable, but this passive defense will last for that day? Besides, as Xixia spreads its power to Hezhou, the border line is getting longer and longer. How many troops will it have to be stationed and how much money will be wasted a year?
Zhao Shu wisely did not ask again.
It was a very normal question and was very good at handling it. After walking out, Han Qi sighed. At this time, Fu Bi had not left the court yet, and after hearing this, he looked at him sarcastically.
Before the beginning, the court began to do a series of good deeds. It used the Futian Courtyard to help the poor and the orphans in the capital, but only 24 people were given money and rice. The imperial edict built 50 houses in the east and west, and each of them was 300 people. The annual quota was 50,000 guan for the inn, which was the official nursing home. It also gave the Sizhou Grand Tashi 8,000 guan. However, some rumors said that Zhao Shu was kind to the beggar because his mother, Jun Ren, was a beggar who sold her body, and by chance fell into Zhao Yunrang's mansion. She took a chance on Zhao Yunrang, and then became a dragon seed. Therefore, Zhao Shu was very concerned about the issue of beggars. No one dared to ask if this happened, and Zheng Lang didn't dare to ask!
Zheng Lang was in Zhengzhou and pretended not to know these things in the court.
After being quiet for more than two years, Zheng Lang officially wrote Confucianism this year. This requires a thinking process. The only time I have time is for the past two years. I am afraid I will never have time to write anything again. I have to think about it and write it. At the beginning, I didn’t write anything else, but first modified the mean, benevolence and righteousness and three-point relationships.
It turns out that Zheng Lang wants to get the wind and rain, and people are optimistic and upward. However, they are a little pessimistic about human nature. At this time, Zheng Lang must not have a good mood, but his view of human nature has changed and he has become a little optimistic.
No matter what philosophy is, human nature is the fundamental. If you don’t understand human nature, you cannot think deeply about philosophy.
In the new Confucianism, Zheng Lang separated human nature from nature. Human nature is human nature, nature is nature, but heaven is high and superior, so all things must grow and move with the changes of heaven. It is not what Confucianism says that the harmony between man and man is, but some of the similarities are different.
Moreover, Zheng Lang said it very harshly. This kind of survival that follows the changes of the way of heaven is actually a process of eating strong meat for the sake of its own growth and species breeding. For example, a simple example is that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and there is not such a large territory. It cannot provide enough food to tigers, so it cannot live in groups like other species.
But the higher the species, the more wise the more they are, the more they pay attention to their respective division of labor and cooperation in order to use the power of the group to strengthen themselves. Especially humans, humans are the first of all things. In fact, they are not as powerful as tigers and leopards, speed as deer and horses, and reproduction as rats and rabbits. Why do they dominate the earth and everything, there is nothing else, and they are also wisdom.
One is an individual, the other is a group. Animals have low intelligence and poor cooperation in groups. If a tiger pounces on a herd of cattle, it will definitely not be as good as the opponents of all cattle. However, the cattle will only run wildly and will not cooperate to fight against the tiger. But if it pounces on people, people can cooperate, go to the mountains to hunt and kill, and eliminate harm for the people.
This leads to a conclusion. The dark side of human nature is to selfishly focus on individual enjoyment, and the brilliant side of human nature is to attach importance to the group, be humble and cooperate, have a clear division of labor, and each serves his duties. The Master said that the monarch, minister, father and son are a clear identity and status. It is also a disguised division of labor. The so-called benevolence and virtue are to try to make the glorious side of human nature a toad?
It must have been changed, but it can be regarded as maintaining the status of the ruler. In addition, Zheng Lang’s reputation is now not very opposed. Then he made further misleading. If the country is stable and the people are happy, everyone must do their own duties in their respective positions. Officials must be good officials, emperors must be good emperors, craftsmen must be skilled craftsmen, and farmers must be diligent and simple farmers.
This process not only depends on education, but also on the guidance of the state machine to bring the glory of human nature to the toad?
It is not against the way of heaven. God has given human beings the leader of all living things. It also gives human beings the right to make efforts over all things. It is also an act of unity between man and nature.
From this we start the argument.
For example, the world is not the world of everyone, but the world of elites. This is the earliest statement, but now Zheng Lang does not say that, the world is the world of the world. Some people become elites and do many things, such as mergers, loan sharks, fish in the countryside, and corruption and bribery. This is the dark side of human nature.
But these people also have the glorious side of human nature. It depends on how the court does it. First, public opinion propaganda, and second, encourage and reward through some gentle measures, induce, combine morality and administration, and prevent these ugly phenomena from spreading.
Regardless of whether there is or not the Master's theory, this idea can be said to be of epoch-making significance.
Having written this, Zheng Lang thought of a person, Lei Feng. Lei Feng was the product of creation of gods, but the spirit of Lei Feng inspired many people and brought about a purifying effect to society. Later, more and more people questioned Lei Feng, and this spirit was lost and the whole society was also confused.
For example, the East and West have the issue of hatred for the rich, but relatively speaking, the rich in Western countries do less domineering things and have a higher charity, which has nothing to do with beautification. At least at this point, others do better, so the mentality of hating the rich will also weaken accordingly.
If Zheng Lang said this, Confucius also talked about Ren more, but where is Ren? Is it not good to be a rich Chinese? But to guide them by urging them with bloody anger?
The world in the past was a pessimistic world, but the world at this time was a reflection world!
They were published in newspapers one after another, and countless scholars agreed.
Zheng Lang was tossing in the newspaper, but Han Qi couldn't care about it. As long as you stay in Zhengzhou, you can do whatever you want.
Integrate words and deeds.
Then the Emperor's Heart Charity Association was launched.
