"What the Jin people want is nothing but money, and I, the Song Dynasty, are rich all over the world, so I can just give him some rewards."

After all, Zhao Jixiang has been the emperor for so many years, and he naturally knows very well. Compared with the throne, money is nothing. If you have the throne, why do you worry about not having money?

"On the contrary, that rebellious son dared to openly shout in the court that I am worthy of the surname Zhao. This shows his bad character. However, he forgot that this throne was given to him by me after all."

Tong Guan still wanted to persuade Zhao Jixiang again: "The official family, Taiyuan Deputy Governor Wang Zhen and Taiyuan Guard Zhang Xiaochun are both stubborn. Now they have been fighting with the Jin soldiers for a long time and suffered heavy casualties. I'm afraid they won't...

"

"You can't control them? Or are you having trouble with them?"

Zhao Jixiang glanced at Tong Guan and pointed out the root of the problem: "If you can't use them, then replace them."

Tong Guan was still a little hesitant: "Now that Wanyan Zonghan is encircling Taiyuan, even if he wants to change, I'm afraid it's not that easy to change, right? What's more, in my opinion, I'm afraid the Jin man's plan is not trivial...

"

"If the Jin people don't care about money, how can they care about my country and the country?"

Zhao Jixiang said: "Do they know how to govern this world? Or are you even planning to disobey me?"

"I don't dare!"

When Zhao Jixiang mentioned this, Tong Guan did not dare to persuade him anymore: "Old slave, go and make arrangements now!"

"Wait!"

Zhao Jixiang stopped Tong Guan and then ordered: "First make a decree to release Li Bangyan and others and see how the capital reacts."

"The official sage!"

…

The scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty were accustomed to being dissolute.

For example, Wen Yanbo, who used to fill water floats, his ancestor's original surname was Jing. He changed his surname to Wen to avoid the taboo of Shi Jingtang, the founder of the Later Jin Dynasty.

.

Of course, it’s nothing to change your surname three times, and it’s nothing to say “No one has entered the lantern brocade, and the sycophant is remembered in the pink palace”. After all, they are all playing politics, and it is not normal if their hearts are not evil.

But Wen Xianggong had a famous saying: "Ruling the world with scholar-bureaucrats is not the same as ruling the world with the common people."

In addition to Mr. Wen, there was also Mr. Lu who said something even more fucked up:

In the sixth month of the second year of Xining, Wushen ordered Sima Guangdu to promote the construction of two groups of labor servants. Lu Gong wrote: "The imperial court sent people to look at the Dong servants, not to praise those who work close to them, but to treat Confucian officials like Confucian officials."

Guangxing.——"History of Song Dynasty"

The general idea is that in June of the second year of Xining, the emperor wanted to send Sima Guang, the man who smashed the vat, to be responsible for the promotion of workers. Mr. Lu said that it was a Confucian official who did this? What happened to the emperor of the Zhao family?

Just bullying the Confucian ministers? Then the Emperor of the Zhao family gave up and did not dare to let Sima Guang go.

Of course, those shady Internet writers of later generations were ignorant and incompetent. Many people mistakenly pinned Sima Gong's incident on Wen Yanbo, and asked Wen Yanbo to shout "This is not the treatment of a Confucian official" to prove the fuck-up of the scholar-bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty.

.

Although the scholar-bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty were really screwed up.

Zizhan Tong judged Qiantang, and had the power to take charge of state affairs. The new governor was about to arrive, and the court prostitutes presented their petitions. They were old and begged to go abroad to do good deeds. The Duke immediately judged and said: "On the fifth day of Beijing's omen, it is not difficult to judge the petition; the nine-tailed wild fox,

It is easy to be appointed from a good position." There was a person born in Zhou Dynasty whose color skills were the best in the state. When he heard about it, he also made a petition to beg for marriage. It was a pity that he left. The judgment said: "I admire the transformation of "Zhou Nan". Although this idea is commendable, I have no hope.

The Northern Group should not accept their request."

What does this short story recorded in Volume 10 of "Mianshui Yan Tan Lu" illustrate?

Because you are a Confucian minister, you can make fun of others. You are joking about other people's fate in life. You are beautiful, good at singing and dancing, why should you marry an honest man? When you are old and mature, you will naturally "take good care of yourself".

"Scholar-bureaucrats donate their relatives and abandon their graves in order to serve as officials in all directions. They want to have fun while declaring their power. This is the most affectionate person. If the decline is too great and the kitchen is in decline, it will be like a bad trend that threatens the country and may not be peaceful.

It is a grand view. Your Majesty sincerely considers this and will not do anything."

"The Complete Works of Dongpo" Volume 51: Letter from the Emperor: Because he is a Confucian minister, he should enjoy good enough treatment. He should eat and drink with public funds, and he should use servants, even if the money is a big burden to the country

, it should not be reduced, this is the "most affectionate thing of human beings".

Also, if you, the emperor, want everyone to be frugal, then this is the Song Dynasty or the Song Dynasty? Isn’t it the same as those poor barbarians? Do you still have the nerve to call yourself a prosperous age? Come on, that’s all we have to say, you Zhao

Those with the last name should weigh it carefully.

Isn’t it very damaging to the three views? Following the collapse of the image of Wen Yanbo, who filled the water ball, and the collapse of the image of Sima Gong, who relied on his imagination to write "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", has the image of Su Dongpo also collapsed?

Including Li Bangyan, who was thrown into the prison by Zhao Huan to die. This prodigal prime minister, who called himself Li Langzi, was a scholar-bureaucrat who "had no achievements, but only served as a flatterer to fill the throne."

"The Legacy of Xuanhe of the Song Dynasty": It is a pity that the imperial court was full of grief and troubles, and Li Bangyan and others held the theory of peace in order to secretly find peace in the present, just like sleeping on the accumulated fuel of a fire, thinking that they are safe before the fire reaches them;

If the flames of the situation are scorching, the person will be in dire straits and cannot be saved.

For this kind of thing, he and Comrade Chuan Jianguo, who is friendly and treacherous, can really be regarded as a good match for a while.

(Sorry, saying this seems a bit insulting to Mr. Kong Ming and Zhou Lang.)

Damn it, the entire court of the Song Dynasty was almost full of such people. People like Li Gang and Li Ruobing were basically rare and endangered species. People like Zongze, Yue Fei, and Di Qing were simply dismissed by the Zhao family.

The emperor made the species extinct.

What's even more damning is that when Zhao Huan was in Bianjing, he could rely on his overwhelming power to suppress these scholar-bureaucrats who were more profligate than book friends. But when Zhao Huan took Ma Zai to Taiyuan, these prodigals began to

The true colors are revealed.

For example, right now, the court is already quarreling over whether to welcome the Emperor back, and some people are even planning to release Li Bangyan, Shi Yushi Sun Jian, and former Minister of War Li Zhe who are imprisoned in Tianlao according to the Emperor's order.

That's right, it was Li Zhe who knelt down as soon as he entered the Jinbing camp and negotiated a peace without permission.

Li Gang, Li Ruobing and other main combatants, being members of Zhao Huan's group, naturally felt that there was nothing to argue about this issue, and were not even willing to talk about the so-called emperor——

Officials all say that Zhao Jixiang is no longer worthy of the surname Zhao, so why should he be a minister or an emperor? He can honestly retire in Bozhou!

But for the peace-negotiating faction that originally relied on Li Bangyan and Bai Shizhong, the emperor is the emperor. Could it be said that the will of the officials today is the will, but the emperor's will is not the will?

Don’t forget that the throne of the current official family was abdicated by the emperor. Moreover, if the current official family goes on an expedition, it would be great if the emperor can be invited to return to the capital to take charge...

However, Li Gang and others are helpless against such nonsense——

Whether to welcome back the emperor or not, Li Gang, Li Ruobing and others from the main war faction don't care, nor do those idiots from the peace negotiation faction. The only ones who can make the decision are the officials. If the officials are not in the capital, the only ones who can make the decision are

Empress Dowager Meng listens to politics behind the curtain.

With no choice but to do so, Li Gang had to bow respectfully to the beaded curtain behind the dragon chair: "Please make your decision, Queen Mother!"

"The Ai family has a decree here. It was left behind by the officials before they went on the expedition. Li Qing should just take it and follow it."

Empress Dowager Meng, who was behind the beaded curtain, finally spoke, and what she said was quite earth-shattering: "What the ancestors of the Song Dynasty wanted most was to take back Yanyun, and they even made an exception and granted the title of king to those who take back Yanyun.

However, until today, the Ai family did not see the hope of regaining Yanyun in the late emperor, but saw the hope of regaining Yanyun in the official family.

Therefore, the Ai family also directly said something ugly in front of them: If anyone dares to hinder the official family at this time, don't blame the leading crutch in the Ai family's hand for being unkind!

By the way, I forgot to tell you, this dragon-head crutch was given by the official family, and the Xu Ai family used this crutch to beat the emperor unconscious and the traitorous officials. If you don't believe it, you can give it a try!"

"I know my guilt!"

Upon hearing that Empress Dowager Meng had the decree and the dragon-head crutch left by Zhao Huan in her hands, Li Gang and the other main combatants were immediately reassured, and then took the lead in admitting their mistakes to Empress Dowager Meng——

Yes, the ministers are at fault and should not quarrel in the court, so those idiots from the peace negotiation faction are also at fault, and they must also apologize!

It’s not scary to apologize anyway, whoever is really wrong will be embarrassed!

"Get flat."

Empress Dowager Meng's voice returned to its calm state. She signaled to the chamberlain around her to send the imperial edict to Li Gang, and then continued: "Here is the official edict. Li Qing will read it to all your ministers."

Li Gang bowed in agreement, and then bowed respectfully to the chamberlain who was holding the imperial edict. Then he took the imperial edict, unfolded it, and prepared to read it aloud.

Then Li Gang looked at this edict in bewilderment, which was very different from the usual imperial edicts, and then quietly looked at the bead curtain behind the dragon chair, until the voice of Empress Dowager Meng came from behind the bead curtain: "Li Qing is taking care of it."

Just read it.”

Li Gang then cleared his throat and read loudly: "

The Emperor of Fengtian carried the order and said:

The young prime minister Li Bangyan failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a minister. During his time in power, he did nothing to achieve anything. He only flattered and flattered to fill the position. The people called him a prodigal prime minister, which was a disgrace to the country's culture and culture. He committed suicide. The imperial censor, Sun Chong,

Li Qimei, the former Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, bullied his superiors and gave him the right to be hanged.

I admire this."

Li Gang's voice echoed in the Zichen Palace, shocking the entire Zichen Palace, both the peace negotiators and the main war faction, looked confused——

The imperial edicts of the Song Dynasty never had the beginning of being carried out by heaven! Never!

Giving ministers permission to commit suicide and giving them the right to hang themselves are even more nonsense!

Is this still the Song Dynasty that did not kill soldiers?

OK, even if Emperor Taizu had killed scholar-bureaucrats, but since Mr. Wen Xianggong said the famous saying "Rule the world with scholar-bureaucrats, not with the common people," the Song Dynasty has really never killed scholar-bureaucrats again, at best.

It's nothing more than exile.

Even when the officials initially said that they would put Li Bangyan in jail and wait for the Queen to be executed, the big bosses in the court only regarded it as a delaying tactic. Who would have thought that now the officials don't even wait for the Queen to be executed?

Are you going to go through the process and kill someone directly?
