I studied in modern times

Chapter 217 It's them who should be afraid!
Renyin in July of the eighth year of Yuanfeng (the tenth day of the lunar new year).

Edict: Since the preparation of the above-mentioned system is now underway, the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China will stop planning to advance.

Another edict: In the future, when you know the state and you are seventy, you are not allowed to play again!

This was the ripple of Kumamoto's impeachment of Zhao Ziji. Everyone in the capital felt that officials over 70 years old should take the initiative to serve and not be asked by the court repeatedly.

It should be noted that many officials have to wait in Bianjing for several years in order to guard a gate!
Han Zhongyan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, said: "I am begging that the emperor's concubine will be in the three-year service, and the clothes, mattresses, and objects are not light, and the birthday sequence is selected according to the empress's example."It is called the decree of kindness, and the paper is used for celebration.The empress dowager and the empress dowager are called bestowed by the empress dowager, the emperor is called a tribute, and all officials are not called ministers.

From it.

July Guisi (Eleventh).

As the envoy of Baoning Army Jiedu and Han Wei, who knew Henan Prefecture, he was promoted to Zhongtaiyi Palace and Jixiguan envoy.

The scholar of Zizhengdian University, the envoy of Hedong Jinglue and the appeasement envoy of Fuyan Road Jinglue knew Lu Huiqing of Taiyuan Mansion, and the envoy of Luoyanlu Jinglue appeasement, and the sentence was changed to Taiyuan Mansion.

There is a word difference between knowing and judging, but there is a huge difference in political status and power.

The magistrate is the official post, and the sentence of a certain state or prefecture is super-appointment.

This means that the imperial court admits that Lu Huiqing has the attitude of a minister, but there are many things in the east of the river, so he has to be invited to shepherd the east of the river for the imperial court as a minister.

But Zhao Xu felt that this was saying to Lu Huiqing: next time for sure!
Because Lu Huiqing has continuously made great contributions, according to normal logic, he should be admitted to the post of Prime Minister!

If that doesn't work, he should be allowed to go to Beijing to report on his duties and get a chance to stand alone in front of the emperor!

But now, the whole hall and the two palaces are strictly guarding against him.

Not to mention a big obeisance, the edict to let him return to Beijing to report on his duties was not issued!
Of course, they cannot be blamed.

In fact, it was Lu Huiqing who left a deep impression on the government and the public in Bianjing.

Whether it is the new party or the old party, there are countless people who fear him!
Liu Changzuo, the commander of both Shenwei and Longwei, served as the appeasement envoy of Fuyan Road Economic Strategy and knew Yanzhou.

At noon this day, after taking a nap, Zhao Xu was drinking in the gazebo in the small garden behind Funing Palace.

Song Yongchen came to him beaming, and said: "Old minister, I report to everyone that Kaifeng Mansion and Gyeonggi sand table have been made!"

"Good!" Zhao Xu applauded.

Accompanied by Song Yongchen, he went to Funing Hall and inspected the assembled sand table.

The sixteen counties of Kaifeng Prefecture have a panoramic view of the mountains and rivers and the vertical and horizontal rivers.

Naturally, today's Kaifeng Prefecture and modern Kaifeng City have completely different geographical features.

For example, in modern times, the Bian River, Jinshui River, Cao River and other rivers flowing into Bianjing City have long been cut off and become ruins.

For example, the terrain of Bianjing today is far lower than that of modern Kaifeng.

All of this is the result of the power of the Yellow River.

Looking at the outlines of the cities on the sand table, Zhao Xu said, "Zhaoxuan can use a small flag to insert the local household registration, arable land, etc. where these county governments are located!"

"Yes!" Song Yongchen immediately accepted the order: "I will order someone to do it when I get back!"

"What's going on in the weapon manufacturing bureau?" Zhao Xu asked again.

"Reporting to everyone, Shen Tiju is in the bureau dedicated to the manufacture of military weapons, and a new department has been established, saying: The Supervising Office of Movable Type, personally appointed by him, is now supervising the production of movable type day and night!"

"Before I came, Shen Tiju seemed to have achieved something!"

"I heard that lead and copper are the best movable type!"

"We are currently verifying separately..."

Zhao Xu nodded and said to Song Yongchen: "Tell Shen Kuo not to just focus on one thing. He should do everything I ask him to do!"

Song Yongchen bowed and said, "I accept the decree!"

After inspecting the sand table, Zhao Xu said to Song Yongchen, "Let's go, come with me to invite the Compassionate Sages of the Two Palaces to visit the sand table in the Funing Hall, and also give credit to Zhaoxuan!"

Song Yongchen said hastily: "Serving everyone, how dare I take credit for it!"

Others do not know.

But now, the close ministers who serve this person all know that this person can no longer be called 'Young Master'.

You can’t even think about it in your heart!

Because, everyone has more or less experienced Tianwei when serving by this master's side.

As powerful as a Daxing emperor.

This master has been able to hide his emotions and anger, and sometimes even let the ministers go down to speculate on his thoughts.

And the most he could do was give a hint or two.

Naturally, no one would dare to regard such a person as a child.

The courtiers are very smart!
It is a basic skill to follow the wind and steer the rudder, so now Shi Deyi, Liu Weijian, and Feng Jing really want to be as good as possible.

Song Yongchen saw it, and of course he was not to be outdone.

……

Zhao Xu first went to the Kunning Palace and invited the Queen Mother.

Then the mother and son went to Baoci Palace together and invited the Empress Dowager.

He has always been so clear about it.

Only the Empress Dowager can really rely on her. As for the Empress Dowager, it is good that she does not cause trouble for Zhao Xu.

The two palaces have long been accustomed to this.

Queen Mother Xiang was secretly happy because Zhao Xu had long been regarded as her biological son.

Although the Empress Dowager is a little bit picky, but after thinking about it carefully, she feels that it is reasonable.

Children will of course be closer to their mother than to their grandmother.

Besides, the officials are indeed benevolent and filial!Everyone knows it!

She didn't take it to heart, although in the past, Zhang Mao would occasionally mention it in front of her.

The Empress Dowager thought it was reasonable at first, but as time went by, and the officials were always filial and sensible in front of her.

Thus, Zhang Maoze's words became noises!
If she talked too much, she would get annoyed.

Especially after what happened last time, the Queen Mother became wary of Zhang Maoze.

After taking away his dispatch, after thinking about it carefully, I still felt that it was not safe.

So, he simply sent him to Yongyu Mausoleum as the envoy of Yongyu Mausoleum, and sent his confidant Liang Congzheng to monitor him.

But Zhang Mao dared to say something that he shouldn't have said outside.

The Empress Dowager can only let him go to Yongzhao Mausoleum to serve the Empress God.

Zhang Maoze's adopted son, Zhang Xun, was even transferred out of the palace by the empress dowager with a transfer order, and went to Yan Shouqin's subordinates to be a supervisor of the water mill.

The two palaces arrived at Funing Hall and saw the sand table of Kaifeng Mansion.

Seeing that roads, rivers, mountains, and cities are all condensed into a clay plastic wooden frame that is only one foot long.

Both palaces are bright!
Even if they live deep in the palace, once the military states of the world are all turned into sand tables.

Then, sitting in Bianjing City, they can also know the geography thousands of miles away.It goes without saying that the benefits of their governance are great.

So, the two palaces looked at the sand table and rewarded Song Yongchen with twenty pieces of silk.

At the same time, five thousand guan were allocated to the Sand Table Division as funds, and Song Yongchen was ordered to step up the production.

At the request of Yongchen of the Song Dynasty, he was allowed to transfer assistant officials and documents from the Ministry of Users and the Ministry of War.

After Song Yongchen was sent away, the two palaces were in Funing Hall, and they started talking with Zhao Xu.

"Brother Six has been reading in Funing Palace these two days?" The Empress Dowager asked first.

Zhao Xu nodded and replied: "Reporting to my mother, my grandson and my grandson have been reading Mr. Ming Dao's book "Knowing Benevolence"..."

Cheng Hao's book on understanding benevolence is not so much a book as a short essay.

The full text is only a few hundred words.

But Cheng Hao personally commented on it, expounding hundreds of small words and great meanings.

Therefore, it can be compiled into a book!

And this book, Zhao Xu feels, probably appeared because of him.

It should be that when Cheng Hao was in bed, regardless of his illness, he dictated it to Cheng Yi in person, and it was very likely that he wrote it himself.

This presents a challenge to Zhao Xu!
Because that is outside his knowledge blind zone!

A great Confucian, at the last moment of his life, integrated his life's wisdom and thinking on Confucianism, as well as the concept and morality of monarchy and country governance, into a thin book.

It is really difficult to read!
However, he still read and thought carefully with great interest.

This is a compulsory course for emperors!

You must master the right to interpret the scriptures!
Because if you don't grasp the right to interpret the scriptures, others will grasp it!

Therefore, the book Cheng Hao presented before his death was actually a treasure trove for Zhao Xu!
He just needs to understand and master these things of Cheng Hao.

He has the final say in Ercheng's Neo-Confucianism!
Otherwise, Cheng Hao's disciples and grandchildren would dare to argue with Zhao Xu?
Anyone who questions, Zhao Xu can throw out what Cheng Hao wrote in his own handwriting before his death.

come come come...

Do you understand science?Or do I understand science?

Haha, you little trash, you don’t even understand Mr. Mingdao’s righteousness, yet you dare to talk nonsense in front of me!

The same principle can be copied to Zhang Zai's qi science.

Because Cheng Hao quoted and elucidated Zhang Zai's book "Ding Zhuan" a lot when annotating Zhiren.

And according to the thought of Neo Confucianism, Zhang Zai's thought was reinterpreted.

However, after Zhang Zai's death, most of the Qi School disciples later followed Er Cheng.

Brothers Lu Dafang, Lu Dalin, and Lu Dazhong are typical examples.

Therefore, Zhao Xu felt that within a few years, both Neo-Confucianism and Qi Studies would be controlled by him.

The two palaces were very happy to hear this.

Empress Dowager Xiang said even more distressedly: "Sixth brother, studying is just studying, don't go too far, lest you hurt your body!"

Zhao Xu thanked and said: "My mother reminded me, I will remember it."

"Actually, I don't work very hard. I just read it in my free time. If I don't understand it, I go for a walk in the garden and think about it... If I can't figure it out, I put it aside for the time being and ask Cheng Shuishu for advice at the scripture banquet."

The two palaces looked at each other and laughed.

Zhao Xu took the opportunity to ask, "Mother, Queen Mother, when will the Sutra feast be held again?"

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Don't worry about the officials...the Jingyan officials are all selecting scriptures for the officials!"

This is natural, although it has been decided to use Li Gou as a hedge against Wang Anshi.

But there are so many works by Li Gou, so you have to choose carefully.

Pick the ones that are more universal and piece them together.

This will not only avoid the charge of deceiving the emperor, but also reduce the radical content.

But it was precisely because of this that the Jingyan officials fought among themselves.

Written by Lu Gong, Fan Chunren, Lu Dafang, Sun Jue, Lu Dian, Cai Bian, Lu Xizhe, Cheng Yi.

Check out this list!
Lu Gong wrote his own faction, and the rest were divided into old and new parties.

The two only seedlings of the New Party, although one is Wang Anshi's son-in-law and the other is Wang Anshi's favorite student.

But their views on Confucianism are completely different!

Forget about these two people, their right to speak is very low, and the two palaces also lack trust in them.

But the remaining gentlemen of the old party were directly divided into three factions.

Sun Jue is from the Shu party, Lu Dafang and Cheng Yi are from the Luo party, and Fan Chunren is from the Shuo party.

Plus Lu Xizhe, who appears to be neutral on the surface, but secretly wants to insert something in line with the new learning thoughts.

The infighting among the banquet officials can be described as brilliant.

Zhao Xu heard from Shi Deyi that in the past two days, a fierce dispute had even broken out in the Jiying Hall.

That is to say, Lu Gongzhu can still control the scene, otherwise, the whole martial arts world may stage it.

Within ten days and a half, they probably couldn't come up with the final result.

Empress Dowager Xiang looked at Zhao Xu's thoughtful look and quickly changed the topic and said: "Sixth brother, three days later, the Liao envoy will enter the palace to pay homage to Emperor Daxing and comfort Sixth Brother..."

"Then the Xixia envoy will also enter the palace to comfort..."

"Brother Six, are you ready?"

Zhao Xu smiled confidently: "Don't worry, Queen Mother!"

"Whether Liao envoys or Xia envoys are human, what is there to be afraid of?"

"Besides, children are the sons of heaven, they are the ones who should be worried!"

The two palaces laughed when they heard Zhao Xu's confident words.

I feel that this child, although he usually looks stable and smart, is still a child after all, so he will naturally have some naive thoughts.

But they didn't point it out, they just said to Zhao Xu: "It's good that the sixth brother is prepared, and the queen mother and the mother-in-law will be at ease!"

However, they didn't know that Zhao Xu was telling the truth.

After a few years, when he is in charge, whether it is Xixia or Liao, they will all know what real fear is!

　Note: Lu Dian is the old party in the new party, and the new party in the old party.So in history, he was a student of Wang Anshi, and he was even on the monument of Yuanyou Party members.

　　Sun Jue was neutral on the surface, but in fact he was inclined to the Shu school thoughts of Su Shi and Su Che.

　　Of course, Fan Chunren and Fan Zuyu didn't explain, but now Sima Guang must be following the lead.
