The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 6 Meeting Jia Sidao for the First Time

Yuan Zhi pondered for a while and said: "This Valley of Kings is the place where my ancestor Xuanyuan Huangdi ascended. In the middle of the valley, there are inner halls and outer halls. People in the inner halls never set foot in the human world. The outer halls are divided into martial arts halls and martial arts halls. This humble minister is from the Martial Hall of the Outer Hall, restricted by the gate rules, I can only say this as much as I can say about the matter of Emperor Valley, in the future, if there is fate, I will tell you, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

I didn't ask further, I thought, most of the ancients liked to be mysterious, no wonder many good things are always lost in later generations, but it seems that there are no such people as Guo Jing and Huang Rong in this world.I smiled and said, "Sir, what is the crime? After the death of the previous empire, I plan to change this martial arts class to one class a day. At that time, I still need a lot of advice from you."

Hearing my words, Yuan Ji had a look of joy and worry in his eyes: "Your Majesty is very happy to like the lesson of my humble minister. Please forgive me for saying it bluntly. Your Majesty shoulders the great responsibility of the world and should focus on cultivating the Sword of the Son of Heaven. Above all, enough is enough for the sword of the common people."

The Song Dynasty always valued literature over martial arts. The first emperor knew that Zhao Yu was weak and sick since he was a child, so he specially invited Yuan Ji to teach martial arts. The purpose was only to strengthen his body, but I knew that my body only had ten years of life, so I dared not Take it lightly, of course, no one will believe this reason when told.

"Of course I will practice the Sword of the Son of Heaven, but the sword of the Son of Heaven and the sword of the common people complement each other. Just like a famous saying in the previous dynasty, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. The sword of the Son of Heaven is the superstructure of the sword of the common people , is used to control the sword of the common people, but on the other hand, the sword of the common people is also the foundation of the sword of the emperor, and it can restrain the sword of the emperor. I just have to get it right."

These remarks are only the most basic dialectical theory in later generations, but to Yuan Ji's ears, they are all extremely fresh theories, and he fell into deep thought for a while.

"Yuan Ji." I suddenly shouted.

"The minister is here." Yuan Ji recovered from his contemplation.

My tone changed, and with a glance in my eyes, I said with a disdainful attitude: "Don't leak what you say today to a third person, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

Yuan Ji's heart trembled, and with his superb cultivation, he couldn't help kneeling down and said: "I know."

At this moment, Yuan Ji suddenly felt that I seemed to be a sharp sword of the emperor, ordering the world, and no one dared not to obey.

When I was leaving, I heard Yuan Ji talking to himself intermittently: "This is the legendary Sword of the Son of Heaven?... It's like two different people... Could it be the real Dragon Emperor?"

Regarding the theory of the Son of Heaven's Sword, the most common view comes from Zhuangzi's "Sword of Swords". Zhuangzi divided swords into the sword of the Son of Heaven, the sword of princes, and the sword of common people.

The sword of the Son of Heaven is straight ahead, supreme in lifting, supreme in action, boundless in luck, above the clouds, and below the jedi.Once this sword is used, the princes will be conquered by the world.This is also the sword of the Son of Heaven.

Carrying the sword of the Son of Heaven, it splits the floating clouds from above, and cuts off the earth from below.

This is what Zhuangzi said about the sword of the son of heaven.

The sword of the common people wins with moves and strength, while the sword of the emperor wins with momentum, and it is the best strategy to subdue the enemy without fighting.

"Officials, Mr. Jia is seeking an audience outside the palace."

This is the sixth day since I came to this world, and it is also the first time someone has come to the palace to look for me, but this person is temporarily listed as my biggest enemy.

I knew my real battle was about to begin from this moment.

"See Your Majesty." Jia Sidao bowed.

"Excuse me, sir, please sit down and watch tea." I knew that Jia Sidao would not bow down, nor would he point out.

After Xiao Qi led Jia Sidao into the house, he immediately made tea and turned to leave.

It was the first time I saw this traitor at the end of the Song Dynasty up close. Jia Sidao was extremely tall, wearing a scholarly scarf and official uniform, and he looked good. A man in his 50s still had a rosy face, and the eyebrows A look of arrogance.I recovered Zhao Yu's lazy expression and sluggish eyes and said: "Masters and ministers have been worrying about the affairs of the Song Dynasty recently, and they have done their best. They are really the pillars of my dynasty. I am very pleased."

Jia Sidao said calmly: "Your Majesty, I have received the kindness of the late emperor, and I will repay you with a spring."

"Master, these few days I have been busy with the funeral of the former empire. I have worked hard. I will reward the former emperor after his success."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I have made all the arrangements for the funeral of the former empire, and I will be able to see the late emperor off tomorrow according to the etiquette system. I have something else to discuss with the officials here today."

"What's the matter with the teacher? But it doesn't matter."

Jia Sidao looked at me and said: "Your Majesty, I am a very kind minister, and I should repay the late emperor's kindness. Now that the late emperor has died, I should do my best to help your majesty. However, I am old and weak I am haggard, so I will resign from the court after the late emperor's great gift, and go home to live up to the rest of my life, and I hope Your Majesty will grant you."

There are indeed records about Jia Sidao's resignation in history, and it seems that it was more than one time.

I know this is Jia Sidao trying to test me. As the saying goes, once the emperor and the courtiers, how will the new emperor treat him, the old minister of the previous emperor, after he ascends the throne, of course Jia Sidao wants to know, this is a move to retreat. Good chess.

In fact, at the end of the Song Dynasty, there were no famous officials with both intelligence and intelligence in the court at all, just like the generals in the late Shu Han Dynasty, there were no generals in Shu, and Liao Hua was the vanguard.Compared with those who can only write sour Confucian articles, this Jia Sidao can still be regarded as a capable minister.In particular, the implementation of the public land law has somewhat eased the financial constraints of the state treasury, but the public land law has offended many big landlords, and in the actual implementation, Jia Sidao and others also corrupted the law, and finally led to complete distortion. This is also Jia Sidao The last major

One of the reasons.

As for the merits of the public land law, there have always been different evaluations, and I don't have the energy to ask about it for the time being.

"Jia Sidao, since you are a well-known adulterer in history, then I will use you to eradicate those malignant tumors that are only for myself, so I can't let you leave now." Thinking of this, I hurriedly pretended He panicked and said: "Why did you say that? The first emperor asked me to treat him as a teacher. As soon as I ascended the throne, did my teacher want to abandon me? This is absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible. The big thing in the court today I will not be very grateful to you, please help me.” After that, I wanted to squeeze out two crocodile tears, but inadvertently thought of Le Lingshan, and I have been suppressing this matter for the past few days. It broke out suddenly, and I couldn't help but really shed two lines of tears.

Seeing my sincerity, Jia Sidao said with contempt in his heart: "A useless person, a Dou who can't support the wall." But on the surface, he was still moved and said: "Your Majesty is so restless, since Your Majesty still looks at me If you have the old bones of the minister, let's postpone the discussion of this matter. It's just that the veteran feels that his energy is not as good as before, and he hopes that the officials will promote more overweight talents to help the minister."

I thought to myself: "This old fox has revealed his true intentions."

I wiped my tears and said: "It should be so, but I have just succeeded to the throne, and I am not familiar with the ministers in the court. If there are any candidates for the teachers and ministers, just ask, and I will agree. It just so happens that the mother also elected several ministers. After the death of the previous empire, I will appoint them together."

"The queen mother also has recommendations?" Jia Sidao was a little surprised.In Lizong's era, when Jia Sidao gained power, he not only eliminated his political enemies, but also expelled many relatives from the court, so he was very at odds with the harem.

"Yes, there are only three or five people. Does this teacher think there is a problem?"

"Oh, no problem." Jia Sidao said thoughtfully, "With the help of many ministers, the old minister can relax a bit."

"Master and minister have worked hard these days. If the master and minister feel tired in the future, they can change from the current one day to three days."

Jia Sidao was not polite, he still sat on the chair and bowed his hands and said: "The old minister hereby first thank Your Majesty for your understanding. In the early days of Your Majesty's reign, you need to be more rigorous. The new official takes office three fires, the new emperor Ascending the throne also requires a little gesture, so as not to let the ministers catch the flaws and publicize them everywhere, which will damage His Majesty's reputation. Officials, if there is nothing else, the veterans will resign."

This Jia Sidao is also very thoughtful, knowing that Zhao Yu's conduct is not good, and before he can sit firmly in the Dragon Court, the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing may take the opportunity to interfere in the government affairs, which will be detrimental to Jia Sidao and me.

"What the teacher said is very true, I should pay attention to it, the teacher wait a moment, I have something to discuss with you."
