Chapter 960 Loyalty and integrity, the scholar represents Qin Hui

"Father! Something is wrong!"

Han Jinsun took three steps at a time and ran into the garden. He saw his father, Han Jiayan, fishing with his uncle Han Zhongyan.

As Han Qi's eldest son and former prime minister, Han Zhongyan is nearly seventy years old, showing his old age, and now he is taking care of his life, but he is also leisurely and contented.

Han Jiayan was only in his forties, and he was in the prime of life and full of energy. Li Gefei was about to step down as Minister of the Ministry of Rites. Once his servant was promoted, he would be a first-rank official. In addition, the Xiangzhou Han family was in the first imperial examination in the new dynasty. Nine Jinshi were selected at once, and their prestige among scholars was immediately pushed to the highest.

The aristocrats of the two dynasties have survived the change of dynasties, and they have the demeanor of aristocratic families. The threshold of the Han family's children has been broken by people who are rushing to come and go.

As the sixth son of Han Qi, Han Jiayan married the princess of Shenzong in his early years, and his official career has ended. Who would have thought that he would be able to occupy a high position in the new dynasty after a turnaround? , Seeing his son rushing in, he snorted coldly: "What are you panicking, where is the usual energy-raising effort?"

Han Zhongyan had an amiable temperament, just like an ordinary old pedant. Seeing his younger brother's increasingly powerful official demeanor, his gray eyebrows trembled slightly, but he didn't say anything, just continued fishing quietly.

After being reprimanded like this, Han Jinsun slowed down, came to the front, and bowed his hands in a solemn salute: "Father!"

Han Jiayan asked, "But is there something urgent in the Xiangzhou clan?"

Han Jinsun said: "It's not Xiangzhou, it's the people of the Jingzhong clan..."

Han Jiayan snorted coldly, intending to train the eldest son: "You are also an official in the capital now, and you are going to enter the Honghe Temple. When you encounter a little chaos, how can you convince the public in the future with such a posture?"

When the king of Yan was established, Yanyun, Hebei, Henan, and Shandong were still the best places in the Central Plains, but in terms of land area, it was only a quarter of that of Zhao and Song Dynasties, and the population was only [-] million.

Now that the north and the south are united, the national border and population have risen sharply, the officials who were originally the center have begun to be further subdivided, and the opening of the nine temples has also made the central authority more complete.

Han Jinsun said: "Father, it is precisely because the six temples and nine temples are complete that the Yushitai caused such a big disturbance..."

Han Jiayan showed some dissatisfaction: "Didn't you already appoint Gongsun Shangshu?"

Logically speaking, the Ministry of Rites was held by the scholar-bureaucrats of the former dynasty, and the censor should be a standard scholar. Gongsun Zhao is not even a Jinshi, so why should he be a leader?
Then Cai Jingxian's "Nine Sections of Supervisory Records", if it really wants to be reformed like that, how difficult it is to be a censor?It is clearly to safeguard the power of the prime minister, with ulterior motives!

This is basically the consensus of scholar-bureaucrats. The Han family did not clearly express their attitude to the outside world, but at home, Han Jiayan still expressed a similar attitude.

Han Jinsun hurriedly said: "Father, Ren Boyu's son has gone to the Chao Mansion and uttered nonsense, which may cause disaster!"

Chao Mansion is the mansion of Chao Buzhi, the fourth scholar of the Su Clan. Thinking of the Juye Chao family, who used to be a noble family who could be separated from the Han family of Xiangzhou, and now he is dumped somewhere, Han Jiayan sneered Corrected: "It's just the Chao family, he is not qualified to be called the mansion now!"

The minister of the Ministry of Rites was jumping in his thinking, and suddenly asked: "You don't need to pay attention to such trivial matters. How are you responsible for the selection of monks in various places? It is your duty to be in charge of Taoism and Buddhism. The local gentry who let the door go, don't show mercy!"

The name of the Nine Temples and Nine Ministers re-established by Yan Ting remains the same, but the authority has undergone considerable changes. For example, Honglu Temple is mainly responsible for religious affairs of Taoism and Buddhism. Hand it over to Honglu Temple.

Han Qi has never had a good impression of Buddhism. The Han family in Xiangzhou is a standard scholar, and has no deep entanglement with Buddhism. Since the New Deal has taken action against Buddhism, and there are so many Jinshi in the family, it is natural to take the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, so that the next important Bits become worthy of the name!
Seeing the presence of this old god, Han Jinsun was about to go crazy, and said loudly: "Father, the son of Ren Boyu was talking nonsense in the Chao Mansion, and now it has spread. I can't come back either!"

Han Jiayan froze suddenly, and couldn't believe his ears: "What did he say?"

Han Jinsun's lips trembled, and his voice lowered instantly: "This man prays to God, and hopes that Gongsun Shangshu will die in the battle of Liaodong and never return!"

The fishing rod in Han Jiayan's hand fell directly into the pond, and he almost jumped up: "Crazy! Crazy! How dare you say such words? This is a serious crime of 'cursing the military'!"

The ancients were superstitious. Many rulers and even generals used divination to see good or bad luck when they set out to fight. In history, Song Huizong believed that the battle ahead was unlucky because the palace was on fire. A big victory in World War I contributed to the highlight moment.

One can imagine what a felony it would be if it was the other way around!
Now the Yan army in the front is fighting with the Jin people, and Gongsun Zhao is also one of the commanders in the front line. The scholars in the rear actually cursed him to die in Liaodong. What a serious political incident!
"Idiot! Idiot! Ren Boyu has been clean all his life and has a good reputation. How did he give birth to such an idiot!"

Han Jiayan cursed loudly, but deep down in his heart, he could understand it.

For the three heroes who are currently in high positions, Gao Qiu, Ding Run, and Gongsun Zhao, the scholar-bureaucrats really can't look down on them.

It’s not that they came from humble backgrounds. It’s not uncommon for many of the founding heroes to come from poor backgrounds. The main reason is that these three are all ex-officials, and they are on the wanted list, and they were more or less promoted by scholar-bureaucrats.

Now that he is an official in the same dynasty and still leaps to the top, don't mention how awkward it is, and he is even more afraid that warriors will follow his example and follow suit.

However, these three people each have their own merits, so far no one has dared to directly participate in the book, but said some strange things behind their backs, and Gongsun Zhao, who is far away in Liaodong, is even more hopeful that he will not come back...

But it shouldn't be said, let alone in public!
This is no longer the era when the scholar-bureaucrats cannot be punished, and the military status of the warriors is far from the humbleness of the previous dynasty!
Han Jiayan murmured: "This matter may cause a huge disturbance, no! I want to go back to the Ministry of Rites and discuss it carefully. I can't just wait for an example and tarnish our image of being a scholar-bureaucrat for the country and the people!"

Han Zhongyan's old eyes are dim, and he is usually deaf, but at this moment he suddenly said: "Sixth brother, for such a big event, we must be careful of the enemy's spies taking advantage of it..."

Han Jiayan was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that the enemy was the Jinren, and waved his hand irritably: "The Jinren are just barbarians, so what's the point of spying? Don't worry about it, brother, I'll figure it out on my own." Quit this storm!"

After all, he hurried away with Han Jinsun.

Han Zhongyan's slightly muddy eyes turned slowly, looked at the garden full of flowers, and sighed quietly: "The sun will shift, and the moon will lose money. My father was worried that climbing a height will cause a heavy fall..."

Naturally, Han Jiayan would not hear his brother's comments, and warned on the way: "You must not directly participate in this turmoil, especially you must not communicate with Ren Boyu's son, even meeting him! The Chao family is over, and the other scholars present, as long as they don't leave immediately Yes, it’s all over! Are there any members of my clan present?”

Han Jinsun said in a low voice, "Yes, there are quite a few others, all from the third house..."

Han Jiayan jumped up angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Han Jinsun: "..."

Han Jiayan's mouth was full of bitterness, and he let out a long sigh: "The family is unlucky, those evil sons, why didn't I send them to the government long ago!"

The Han family is now in its heyday, all clans and branches have face, and there are many people coming and going, becoming more and more arrogant and domineering.

In fact, many of them were not good things in the first place, but the ones who were punished before were all the culprits, so they were ignored.

For example, the landlords who were labeled as "bully" were all headed by the evil, and their relatives served as slaves, and they were escorted to build the Great Wall. It is indignant to the common people.

But that time, many of the first-class ones escaped the purge. As for the petty treacherous and petty evil, there are too many people who are rich and unkind, and Zhao Song treats scholar-bureaucrats too favorably. up.

The same is true for the children of the Han family. Before, Han Jiayan killed his relatives righteously and took down a group of extremely evil people. He killed chickens and monkeys, and made the clan peaceful for a long time. Now that the limelight has passed, he immediately revealed his true colors...

Han Jiayan took a deep breath, knowing that it is not enough to attack only from within the clan, he immediately said: "You organize a group of scholar friends to denounce this kind of behavior, and support Gongsun Shangshu as the head of Yushitai, but remember, don't think that I, Han In the name of your family, build momentum and let your lord know!"

Han Jinsun's eyes flickered, and he suggested: "Father, even so, why don't our Han family come forward in person?"

Han Jiayan immediately shook his head: "That is the target of public criticism. The anger of the scholars will be poured on our heads. This matter cannot be done!"

Han Jinsun actually felt that with the current prestige of the Han family in Xiangzhou, it might not be a bad thing to lose some, but seeing Han Jiayan's firm attitude, he could only think for a while and said: "If this is the case, my son knows many southern scholars, and there is a Jinling scholar. The son is a heavy responsibility."

Han Jiayan's eyes lit up: "Jinling scholar? Very good!"

Due to the move of the capital at the end of the Song Dynasty, Jinling undoubtedly became a very embarrassing place. People from this place can easily control: "What is the origin of this person?"

Han Jinsun said: "This man's name is Qin Hui. He is only eighteen years old. He is upright and has a lot of integrity. His father was the magistrate of the ancient county of Jingjiang Prefecture in Guangxi. Xiu spent his days, and once wrote a poem, "If you get [-] acres of paddy fields, you won't be the king of hozen"..."

"The Hozen King..."

Han Jiayan laughed, which was obviously a self-deprecating joke, but the Hozen King was a little ambitious to go north so quickly, which reminded him of the famous saying of Su Qin, a strategist in the Warring States Period, "How can I have Luoyang and Guotian two hectares?" Is there any relationship between the six countries?"

Han Jiayan had a good impression of this person: "Let Qin Hui come forward, and you keep an eye on your clansmen, and don't have any contact with Ren's idiots. You must be such a loyal and upright person when you make friends!"

Han Jinsun took the order: "Yes!"
