Chapter 131 The policy of national subjugation, listening to politics behind the curtain

In the vertical arch hall!

The smell of gunpowder is strong!
This is Zhao Xu's first real court meeting. Even if the Empress Dowager Gao was seriously ill and let Zhao Xu handle the court affairs alone for more than half a month, it is still not considered a pro-government.
As soon as Empress Dowager Gao came forward, she immediately took back all the power, which shows how many ministers followed Empress Dowager Gao. Now that Zhao Xu suddenly forced the palace, the ministers who followed Empress Dowager Gao naturally began to counterattack.

"Report to the officials, someone saw the criminal officer Cai Que in the city of Kaifeng! It is a felony if he didn't recall him to Beijing! I beseech the officials to punish him." Zhao Tingzhi took the lead in expressing his disbelief.

"Cai Que!" The hearts of the officials moved, and they couldn't help but think of the emaciated body of the head of the officials. He was the leader of the new party and the prime minister of the court, but he was framed by the Che Gaiting poem case and was belittled in just a few years. Lingnan, became a crime official.

Zhao Xu looked down at the ministers and said without hesitation: "Cai is indeed not recalled to Beijing, but because he is seriously ill, I pity him for serving the country, and now the doctors are booming and his medical skills are greatly improved, so we specially let him return to Beijing for treatment. "

"The government ordered Cai Que to return to Beijing for medical treatment. Why didn't the third department know? The hundred officials didn't know?" Zhao Tingzhi asked forcefully.

Zhao Xu said indifferently: "How can such a trivial matter as a patient go back to Beijing for treatment, bother the teacher and mobilize the crowd to alarm the ministers?"

Fan Zheng cooperated and said: "According to reports from the Imperial Hospital, most of the medicines Mr. Cai seized were medicines for tigers and wolves. I'm afraid they will die soon."

The court couldn't help but feel sorry for Cai Que and they knew that most of the Che Gai Ting poetry case was framed, and now that time is running out, it may be unreasonable to kill them all.

"Wang Di, the grandson of the treacherous Prime Minister Wang Anshi, instigated the imperial students, the imperial doctors knocked on the palace, and even the ignorant people followed in rebellion! He should be severely punished."

"There are even more scholars besieging the Baihu Hall, insulting the soldiers, Kaifeng City is in chaos, and the Empress Dowager is always holding the burden. Please also ask the Empress Dowager to come forward to stabilize the Song dynasty!"

When the plan failed, Zhao Tingzhi and a group of ministers played again, forcing Zhao Xu to invite Empress Dowager Gao.

Zhao Xu scolded angrily: "The Tai students and the Tai doctors knocked on the gate and begged for orders to revitalize the Great Song Dynasty to fight against the Liao Xia Dynasty. The common people are against the old coins. This is what the hearts of the people want. You who eat the king's salary do not want to revitalize the Great Song Dynasty and are loyal to the country. , but afraid of Liaoxia like a tiger, it is a vain Song official."

Zhao Tingzhi said righteously: "The common people are stupid, how can they understand our painstaking efforts? The Tai students are academically motivated, and they don't understand the dangers of the Song Dynasty. The Liao and Xia countries are working together. Once the war resumes, the Song Dynasty will definitely die."

Zhao Tingzhi threatened the Liao and Xia countries again, and the court was suddenly clouded. Once the war resumed, the money spent would not be able to be solved with this little old coin.

"No! On the contrary, Fan thinks that now is a great opportunity for the Song Dynasty to rule the world." Fan Zheng retorted, looking directly at Zhao Tingzhi.

"Unify the world?" Zhao Tingzhi laughed back in anger, pointing at Fan Zheng and angrily said: "One day, the Great Song Dynasty will perish at the hands of a paper talker like you, and Zhao can guarantee that within half a year, Xixia will definitely die." When the attack comes, the Liao Kingdom is also ready to make a move, if we don’t remedy it, it will be too late to regret.”

Fan Zheng snorted coldly and said: "Fear before fighting. In Song Dynasty, there are courtiers like Mr. Zhao, and it is the disaster of the country's subjugation. From Fan's point of view, Xixia will be defeated this time, and it will be defeated by listening to the government behind the curtain!"

"Defeated by listening to politics behind a curtain!"

It is well known that the Manchu Dynasty was silent, and now Xixia, like the Song Dynasty, is a young emperor enthroned, and the queen mother listens to politics behind the curtain.

Zhao Tingzhi chuckled and said, "The Empress Dowager Liang of Xixia listened to the government behind the curtain, and the new party used the same rhetoric to deceive the late emperor. As a result, 60 soldiers and civilians died in the battle in the Song Dynasty, which is a lesson from the past."

All the officials nodded their heads. Back then, Shenzong also took advantage of the Xixia Young Emperor's ascension to the throne, and the Empress Dowager Liang listened to the government behind the curtain. She wanted to put down Xixia in a single battle, but she was defeated in a row, and the Xining Reform was also hit hard.

Fan Zhengzheng said: "Listening to politics behind a curtain is not a policy of subjugation. The real policy of subjugation is to listen to politics behind a curtain. Empress Dowager Liang held on to power for greed of power, so that Xia Huizong died young, and her niece, Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, died again. Listen to the government behind the curtain and hold the power."

The faces of all the officials changed, they knew that Fan Zheng's action was referring to Sang and scolding Huai, but they couldn't refute it.After all, it is a fact that the Empress Dowager Xixia Liang held on to power.

"It's not terrible to listen to the government behind the curtain. What's terrible is that the emperor's succession is out of order. In order to monopolize the power, the Empress Dowager Xia Huizong was imprisoned. The Western Xia imperial party and the Renduo clan rebelled one after another. Will such a tragedy be repeated in the Song Dynasty?"

Fan Zheng looked around at the ministers and angrily reprimanded.

Empress Dowager Gao was still there yesterday, so he saved a little bit of face, but now he is not shy about it, angrily scolding Empress Dowager Gao for monopolizing power.

Zhao Xu immediately clenched his fists. He is proficient in current affairs, so he naturally knew the miserable end of Emperor Xia Hui. If he didn't force the palace, even if he reluctantly took over the government in the future, he would not be able to monopolize the power. fate.

Hundreds of officials were silent, far from the matter of Wu Zetian, and near by the lessons learned by Empress Dowager Liu E and Xixia Liang, all officials knew in their hearts that it may be very small to expect Empress Dowager Gao to take the initiative to return power. It will be staged in Da Song.

"What's even more frightening is that Xixia's Liang family married their niece to Emperor Xia Hui for their own benefit. Now there are two heirs of one family, monopolizing power, and foreign relatives interfering in politics. There must be discord in Xixia. This is the weakest moment of Xixia. It is a heaven-sent opportunity for Song Dynasty." Fan Zheng shouted.

All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty nodded. The situation today is indeed very different from that of the Shenzong period. Although the Xixia Queen Mother listened to the government behind the curtain during the Shenzong period, Xixia’s strength has not weakened. Now Xixia has undergone a series of internal struggles. Intervening in politics, the two Empress Dowagers of Liang listened to politics behind the curtain, and there must be discord in the country, and there is indeed an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Now the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang of Xixia is listening to the government behind the curtain. In order to consolidate her power, she has repeatedly fought against the Song Dynasty in an attempt to consolidate her power by defeating the Song Dynasty. , in the name of restoring the orthodoxy of the Western Xia royal family, we must split the Western Xia Dynasty internally, defeat them, completely abolish the Western Xia coins, and eliminate the threat of the Western Xia Dynasty." Fan Zheng clenched his fist heavily.

In an instant, the eyes of all the court officials looked at Fan Zheng with a little more appreciation. No one thought that Fan Zheng was talking on paper. On the contrary, every strategy of Fan Zheng hit the fatal point of Xixia hard. If the Western Xia and Song Dynasties are unable to defeat them, then the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty can only be said to be dead.

Zhao Tingzhi was speechless, so he could only change the subject and said: "Xixia is indeed weak, but what about the Liao Kingdom? Sending troops to the south, Kaifeng has no danger to defend, and I am afraid that the country is in danger of being destroyed."

Fan Zheng retorted: "The Liao Kingdom is even less of a concern. The Song Dynasty still fought with Xixia frequently, and the Liao Kingdom has been at peace for a hundred years, and its army has already been disbanded. The Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji is already sixty years old. First there was the Rebellion of the Yuan Dynasty, and then Yelu Yixin was arbitrarily arbitrarily in power and disordered government, and the empress Xiao Guanyin was given to death. This kind of Liao State has lost its vigor. The Song Dynasty only needs to strictly guard to the death, and the Liao State will surely return without success. Wait for the clean-up to be completed Xixia, the Liao Kingdom is nothing to worry about."

Everyone's face twitched, Xixia listened to the government behind a curtain, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom was old, and the Song Dynasty had both disadvantages.

The hearts of all the officials in the court were moved. This moment is indeed an excellent opportunity for the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Xu took charge of the government, worked hard, and revitalized the Great Song Dynasty. It may be that there is no chance to dominate the world.
