The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 68 Old ginger, extremely spicy

In the harem, every move will always affect the court.

Zhang Dun has not yet returned to the prime minister, nor has he expressed his position on this matter.

But his disciples and former officials stood up and once again launched a powerful round of criticism against the old method.

Only Zhang Dun.

Things in the palace left him a little confused.

He knew clearly that Liu Jieyu was being tortured now.

In Zhang Dun's opinion, this was just for show.

Zhang Dun was analyzing whether the information he had revealed to Princess Zhu had reached the hands of the person hiding in the dark, or whether the information he had conveyed to Zongze had arrived.

At this time, think again about the title given to Queen Meng by the officials.

In the original text of the edict, he was given the title Yuanyou, his grandfather's name was Yuan, and he was changed to Longyou.

Yuanyou.

The word Yuanyou represents the Old Fa lineage, and Zhang Dun clearly knows that there is absolutely no way that Queen Meng will support him and the New Fa lineage.

Queen Meng, who had been banished from the palace for many years, returned to the palace.

Is there power?

Have!
Zhang Dun knew very well that this was the great righteousness, a banner that united the lineage of the old law.

The Empress Dowager Gao supported the old law.

The current Queen Mother also supports the old law.

It was also the lineage of the old method that sent Queen Meng to the throne.

This move is quite clever and sophisticated, and he has a very detailed understanding of the affairs in the palace decades ago, which is enough to prove that there are eunuchs with high positions in the palace involved.

Liang Shicheng?
Impossible, he is a eunuch in Prince Duan's palace, and he doesn't know what is going on in the palace.

I thought about the old eunuch in the palace who knew all the details back then, and he was almost dead at the moment.

Bai E?

Zhang Dun broke into a cold sweat after thinking of this name.

If we say that Liang Shicheng believed that Emperor Zhao Ji was his wealth and his future.So from another perspective, Princess Zhu is Bai E's wealth, life and death.

Thinking about the death of everyone in the Empress Dowager Xiang's palace, could it be said that the Empress Dowager Xiang...

Zhang Dun felt afraid for the first time.

When Zhang Dun was calculating at home.

At this time, a man walked up to the front desk.

Right Prime Minister Zeng Bu.

Zhao Ji was still guarding the Queen Mother's soul. He was very sleepy, and more importantly, he wanted to go out and play.

He knew he would be here to guard it.

Three days.

He didn't understand everything Liang Xin said, but deep down he believed in one thing, that is, Liang Xin's words were credible. At least for this period of time, Liang Xin's suggestions were for his own good.

When Zhao Ji was irritable, Zeng Bu knelt beside Zhao Ji.

"Official family." Zeng Bu knelt in front of the Queen Mother's spirit, which was beside Zhao Ji, and called Zhao Ji in a low voice.

Zhao Ji turned his head.

Zeng Bu said: "The official family, I believe that the eldest lady's heart disease is not only related to the use of talisman water in the palace, but also related to the mutual attack between the new method and the old method."

Zhao Ji was actually grateful to Zeng Bu in his heart.

Because it was a critical moment, Zeng Bu helped himself ascend to the throne.

At the same time, there is corresponding respect. After all, he is an old minister and has considerable prestige.

Zeng Bu spoke, but Zhao Ji still listened carefully.Zeng Bu continued: "I believe that the first thing for officials to take charge of the government is to adopt the right way and eliminate the filth in the sea..." Zeng Bu talked a lot. Liang Xin gave this theory to Zhao Ji two days ago. Just said it.

The difference is that Liang Xin told Zhao Ji that you are the emperor. You do not favor any party. You promote capable and loyal ministers, dilute the power of the new law and the old law in the court, and slowly put all the power in your own hands.

Zeng Bu's words were to tell them to stop fighting and let the court be quiet.Whichever side makes sense and whichever side has a better plan for governing the country will use it.Otherwise, no need.

Whether the original reform was right or wrong, don't worry about it, let's be more stable.

After Zhao Ji finished listening, he thought for a while: "I heard what my husband said, let me think about it."

"Minister, leave."

Zeng Bu retreated to the steps, knelt down, and continued the next sacrificial ceremony.

The sacrifices are over today, and the next step is to choose a day to commemorate the Queen Mother and Shenzong together.

Zhao Ji arranged for someone to call Liang Xin into the palace and learn Zeng Bu's words from Liang Xin.

Liang Xin's first reaction was that Zeng Bu wanted to take this opportunity to seize power.

Zeng Bu was in Liang Xin's heart.

He is not a pure bad guy. He is not as greedy as Cai Bian, and he is not as harmful to the world as Cai Jing. He is just too selfish.

Liang Xin said to Zhao Ji: "Since Mr. Zeng is interested, why not let him do it? But do you think you can balance the interests of the new law and the old law, and still have the power to control them?"

Still in control.

Zhao Ji listened to them arguing with each other for a long time in the court.

He also couldn't tell what was good statecraft and what was inappropriate statecraft.

Zhao Ji asked: "What should we do?"

Liang Xin: "Let Mr. Zeng do what he wants. Give him the authority. Forbear until all the people who can threaten your throne or their power has disappeared."

"Then, let Mr. Zeng do the grinding."

Liang Xin said while grinding: "If many people in the court impeach Mr. Han, then let Mr. Zeng be the left prime minister and demote Mr. Han to the right. This will give Mr. Zeng a chance to see how he handles this middle-and-out situation." Right, how to clean up the filth in the sea. Then you can feel more relaxed."

"Preparations have been made before. In the main building of Bianjing 72, all the oirans will compete for the ranking of Bianjing oirans, including singing, dancing, poetry, painting, piano music, etc."

Zhao Ji was about to write the edict and immediately put down his pen: "Keep talking about this, keep talking, I know there will be fun that I can't think of."

Liang Xin also put down the ink note: "Next, I will choose the twelfth floor as the best. I haven't thought about the rest yet. Let's talk about the best twelfth floor first. Increase the manpower to six people per team. I have designed it. A form of competition called a league..."

What kind of dispute is there between the new law and the old law in the court?

What's the hit? It's right.

Only then can the filth in the sea be wiped out...

There are only two words in Zhao Ji's head right now.

League.

Think about it, this is the top main building in Bianjing, and it is so exciting to select five people who are capable of competing for the oiran of this building to assist it, and compete with other top main buildings.

Zhao Ji has already begun to look forward to it.

It was already late at night when he came out of Zhao Ji's house.

A lantern appeared in front of Liang Xin, it was Wang Youzhong.

Liang Xin bowed her hands and said, "Your Majesty."

"It has been raining these past few days and the roads are not good at night. Zajia sent Liang to check up."

"It's work."

The two exchanged simple polite words, all of which were official.

After leaving Zhao Ji's study, Wang Youzhong began to whisper: "The palace has chosen Lu Youde to be the steward of Empress Longyou. Everything goes well for Eunuch Li and Eunuch Bai, but some people outside the palace have begun to win over these two people. Old Law [-] Someone sent Lu Youde a gift, but Mr. Han did not show up."

Wang Youzhong talked about important things.

Liang Xin listened carefully.
