King of Song

Chapter 76

Lin Zhaochaotang's passionate scolding was quite earth-shattering.

The officials of the Song Dynasty had mixed feelings in their hearts, and many people didn't know what to say for a while, especially Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, who were at the core of the debate.

Before his son Wang Yu said that Lin Zhao would bring about a turning point, Wang Anshi had been waiting, but he did not expect such a result.Of course, his situation is much worse than Sima Guang's.After all, the result was beneficial to them, not to mention that although he hadn't figured out the inside story from the beginning, at least he had a sliver of benevolence in his heart to save Ah Yun's life.The process is wrong, but the purpose and result are still right.

The emperor Zhao Xu was very satisfied with the result, and the beautiful counterattack left everyone speechless, and the trump card played the expected role.The resistance to this reform will undoubtedly be reduced a lot. I hope those stubborn veterans can learn more and be less constrained.As for Lin Zhao's performance, it was even more wonderful!
Lin Zhao is the person he likes, and he only hopes that Lin Zhao will be loyal to him alone, and there can be no second one, not even Wang Anshi, whom he admires and reuses, or too many connections with each other.

Since he is the emperor's confidant, he can only be a loyal and lonely minister!
Zhao Xu felt that his choice was not wrong, although it was just a hint, but Lin Zhao was very smart, grasped this point with interest, and responded in such a clever way.Today's scolding scolded both parties. With this barrier, the relationship between Lin Zhao and the courtiers will not be so close in the future.

Very good, this is the most desired result, so perfect.The Ayun case came to an end, and the reform can finally be put on the agenda.For the emperor, he may have obtained a direct confidant.For Lin Zhao, he was appreciated by the emperor and at the same time gained a lot of fame.From now on, even though he is only a small master of the eighth grade, he has become famous and known to everyone.

Things are perfect up to here, but unexpectedly, there is one person who is unwilling.

Tang Jie, a political adviser, said: "Master Lin is really selfless? Before, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty believed that Ayun was guilty, but only Zeng Gongliang and Wang Anshi believed that he was innocent.

Now he jumped out and said that there is another hidden story in the case, hum!What did you do in Terengganu before?What about the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple?And you Master Lin, knowingly knowing that there are other secrets, but not revealing them in advance, but waiting until now to tell them, what is your intention? "

Swearing at court meetings seems to be a fashion today.Although Lin Zhao scolded a wide range, but in terms of influence and consequences, compared with Tang Jie, it is still far behind.Because this Tang Xianggong is so famous for cursing people, he has already scolded out of style.

During Song Renzong and Mingdao years, when Tang Jie served as a censor in the palace, he went to Qishengyuan to build dragon and phoenix chariots, decorated with rare and precious treasures, which was extremely luxurious.Tang Yushi repeatedly persuaded and destroyed the dragon and phoenix chariot.Then he impeached Zhang Yaozuo, his relative, for monopolizing power, and lost his position.

The prime minister, Wen Yanbo, was not spared either. Tang Yushi firmly grasped the matter of giving gifts to his wife Zhang Guifei, which left a stain on his resume.

Tang Yushi is extraordinary, upright and upright, dare to speak out, the glorious deeds are not just this.Even Song Renzong's most taboo about childlessness was outspoken, which almost choked Song Renzong to death.Since then, Tang Jie has "moved the world with a straight voice", and all the courtiers said: "The real imperial historian must be Tang Zifang!"

It is precisely because of this that Tang Jie has a special status in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, so that his words are sharper than swords.If Tang Yushi blames someone, everyone will think that someone is really worthless, and his future will be ruined.

As early as half a year ago, Emperor Zhao Xu consulted his ministers about Wang Anshi's visit to the prime minister, but Tang Jie firmly opposed it.He believed that although Wang Anshi had good knowledge, he was stubborn, outdated, and his speech was unrealistic. If such a person was allowed to be in charge of political affairs, there would definitely be many changes.

The concept of change is good today, but it was not a good thing in ancient times when ethics were followed.It is precisely because of this that when Emperor Zhao Xu expressed his intention to reform, there was a lot of opposition.

Tang Jie also had arguments with Wang Anshi many times and firmly opposed it. Unfortunately, the emperor has been standing behind Wang Anshi, which made Tang Xianggong very angry.But this time, they had confirmed the facts of Ayun's case, and it happened to be a way to thwart Wang Anshi, so they attached great importance to it.Seeing that he was about to win a big victory, Lin Zhao jumped out suddenly, which brought many variables to this matter.

Tang Jie, who has been promoted to be a political adviser, subconsciously believes that this matter is not simple, and whether it is true remains to be verified.But at least the whole process looks like it was designed by Wang Anshi or Emperor Zhao Xu.It was designed from the beginning to lure everyone into the trap, and then ran out a so-called real hidden story, which played a counterattack and had the effect of winning with one blow.All the ministers of the court have been tricked!Tang Jie was naturally dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to accuse Emperor Zhao Xu easily, so he questioned several other deep participants.Of course, it is not ruled out that Tang Xianggong has other ideas.

Lin Zhao didn't know about Tang Jie's personality and special status, and when he heard someone question him, he thought it was someone who didn't have eyes.In addition, it happened that the momentum was still there, and his anger surged up, and he took advantage of the situation and said: "My lord, I don't know what other people think, and I don't know what the case itself is like!
But now, no matter whether it is punishing according to the law or granting favor outside the law, there is only one basis, that is, what is the real situation of the case?Maybe you guys have doubts about me, well, you guys also go to Dengzhou to check in detail?See if I'm lyingWhy do you want to make such empty words and wanton accusations?What about embarrassing an innocent little girl?
When standing on the moral high ground and accusing someone, it is best to ask yourself first.Otherwise, it will inevitably make people question, what ulterior motives do some people have, is it possible that cronies have plots? "

Lin Zhao's words were sharp, and he was an unforgiving master, so his rebuttal was a bit too much, especially when he was labeled as a crony.You know, this is the most taboo thing for feudal emperors. The lesson of the Tang Dynasty's Niu Li party struggle is still vivid.

Although the party struggles in the Northern Song Dynasty broke out after Song Zhezong came to the throne, at present, although the reform has not yet begun.However, the ministers who opposed the reform were very concentrated, and the old party had actually vaguely formed.If you want to get to the bottom of it and talk about it carefully, Lin Zhao is not wrong.

Who can bear such a crime of ulterior motives?Tang Jie suddenly felt overwhelmed, and he didn't know if he was thinking wrong, or underestimated Lin Zhao's combat power. Tang Xianggong obviously fell down today.Perhaps Tang Jie himself is not that powerful, but because the name of the tree shadow is there, many people can't help being afraid and dare not argue with Tang Jie.

Lin Zhao is different. There is a saying that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. Unaware of Tang Xianggong's reputation, he won with one blow.Tang Jie was already 60 years old, and his health was not very good. At this moment, he was greatly stimulated and trembled all over.Then he fell in the court and was carried back home.

This was an unexpected episode, and Lin Zhao didn't expect it, and he would scold him to his heart's content, but it was a big deal.

No one expected that Tang Xianggong was so fragile, and soon after returning home, his back gangrene broke out, and he died.

There are grievances and debtors, and many officials were filled with righteous indignation because of the death of the model representative and model predecessor Tang Xianggong, and wanted to seek revenge from someone, so a denunciation campaign was launched immediately, of course, this was a few days later.
