Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1254 Royal Ruthlessness

This is a big event. The Jingyan is specially set up for the emperor, so that the emperor can get closer to the scholar-bureaucrats, get a good education, and correct the gains and losses of governance.

It is really shocking that Zhao Chen wants to hold a sutra banquet for Jian Guo. Could he be the Supreme Emperor?It seemed a little too early, and it didn't quite fit Zhao Chen's temperament.

Wang Xiu thinks a lot. The Jingyan system has gone through several twists and turns. In the past, he used to quote scriptures and history at random to discuss political affairs, but now he tends to reason and gradually loses his flexibility. , Setting up a prison for the National Classical Banquet made him very uncertain. I am afraid it was not his son's idea. The smell inside made him think twice.

Moreover, Zhao Chen directly invited Liu Renfeng to enter the court and serve as Zhao Jiong's banquet official, which is even more thought-provoking.

Regarding Liu Renfeng's knowledge, the princes of the two houses have no objection. He is the head of Yuquanshan Academy. His excellent debates have won praise from scholars, and even Li Guang also praised him, saying that he has a strong character.

The only tangled thing is that the emperor is still holding a sutra banquet for the prince, which is against the system and makes people argue endlessly.Opposition voices are naturally the mainstream, not to mention Li Gang, Zhao Ding and others are resolutely unwilling, even Li Guang and Cai Yi are also hesitant.

Let the people how to see the imperial court, is it possible that the country is really about to change hands?

Zhao Chen insisted on going his own way, and said resolutely: "I've made up my mind, gentlemen, don't discuss it any more."

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is studying at the Eastern Palace, and your majesty is in the prime of his life, how can he disrupt the court system?" Zhao Ding firmly opposed it. He was very afraid of Zhao Chen's abdication. Zhao Jiong was too young, and Wang Xiu was very optimistic about Zhao Jiong. Setting up the Prince's Sutra Banquet may make those who care more rampant.

Li Gang was also hesitating, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the sutra banquet is only set up for the emperor, and the prince is wise and wise, but it should not be set up. I hope your majesty will take back the holy will."

However, Cai Yi glanced at Wang Xiu. He was also unsure of Zhao Chen's intentions. He was afraid that he might say something he shouldn't say, so he decisively kept silent.

"Didn't I just say it! Since I hurt my internal organs last time, my body is getting worse day by day, and I can't go to court in a short period of time to manage politics. It is also well-prepared for the prince to get in touch with scholar-bureaucrats earlier." Zhao Chen said weakly, with a strong sense of humor in his words Desolate, always makes people feel reconciled.

Li Gang, Zhao Ding, Li Guang and others were moved by this, and even Cai Yi couldn't help sighing, thinking that even if he was stabbed in the body, he is almost healed now.

Wang Xiu faintly felt something was wrong. Zhao Chen was seeking sympathy, which seemed too naive. For cruel political struggles, the weak are not worthy of sympathy.

It is true that Zhao Jiong is young, but he does not act like a child at all. He has been unanimously affirmed by everyone, and he very much hopes to have such a promising monarch.It's just that Zhao Chen's words still aroused the sympathy of most ruling powers, and if they spread out, they would definitely arouse sympathy.

The people couldn't help complaining. No matter what, the emperor is the emperor, and the prince is the prince. Even if the prison country is added, it can't be changed. The sky cannot have two days, and people cannot have two masters. Perhaps it is really time to solve it.

However, he didn't express any opinion. Even if Li Gang tactfully forced him to express his opinion, he tactfully avoided the answer, and he left Donghuamen with a heavy heart.

Li Gang looked at Wang Xiuyuan's back, and said with complicated eyes: "Wang Wenshi's establishment of the crown prince to supervise the country is indeed out of public interest, but it cannot be customized."

Li Guang and Li Gang had a good relationship. The two controlled the Privy Council, and they cooperated happily. They could say something frankly, and said in a low voice: "This move by the officials is a bit weird."

"Needless to say, it's clear that some people are restless and must make some noise." Who is Li Gang?That's a sophisticated fox, how can he not be aware of these twists and turns in the officialdom.

"That's right, some people's wishful thinking has reached the point where there is no way to add it. This trend must not last." Li Guang felt the same way. He firmly advocated suppression, and he spoke out while Li Gang was talking.

Li Gang hesitated, and said in a low voice: "The matter is of great importance."

Li Guang understood Li Gang's worries, so why not, he just sighed: "The crown prince is old and wise, given time, he might not be a generation of enlightened masters."

Li Gang was silent, his eyes were obviously struggling.

Just when the people in the two mansions dispersed with their own thoughts, Zhao Roujia came to Funing Hall, screened the left and right palace people, and the brothers and sisters came to the East Pavilion, she was the first to say: "The official family, the prince is pressing every step of the way, but I don't know what the official family wants. How to decide?"

Zhao Chen glanced at Zhao Roujia, he was in a very comfortable mood, and smiled gently: "Why are you panicking, hold your breath, and press every step of the way? I am the Son of Heaven."

"Son of Heaven? Don't the officials know that the princes recast the Heavenly Court, win over Buddha and Lao, and even Confucianism has a share of the soup. Our family is no longer the Son of Heaven, but the Emperor of Humanity who inherits the fate of heaven and governs the human race." Zhao Roujia He smiled coldly, and said again: "It is clear that it is enough for the royal family to inherit the luck, and the power of the foreign court is controlled by the scholars, so it is easy to plan."

Zhao Chen's complexion changed slightly, and he calmed down immediately. He said in a deep voice, "It's just to find an excuse for myself, but I gave him a difficult problem. It depends on how he responds?"

"Oh, a problem?" Zhao Roujia looked at Zhao Chen strangely, with a bit of contempt in her heart. It wasn't that she didn't like Zhao Chen, but it was because this brother had no plans, and he came up with a plan to humiliate himself.

"Prince Jian Guo Jingyan." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Zhao Roujia's eyes lit up, and she lost her voice: "The officials are so cruel, they even use the prince as a bargaining chip. He is your own prince, how can you bear to put him on fire?"

"Since I was born in the royal family, I have to face these things. Why don't you and I have to be patient, don't you?" Zhao Chen looked at Zhao Roujia, with a trace of sadness hidden deep in his eyes.

"The government is easy to plan, but the prince is in a whirlpool. I'm afraid that even if the government wins, he won't be able to live in the East Palace for a long time!" Zhao Roujia felt a pity. battle for power.

The prince who has always been elected into the power vortex has either been swallowed by the cruel struggle, or retreated sadly, it is difficult to make a difference, and she can't help feeling sorry.

"No matter what, the officials must explain to the prince, and he must not be wronged." As she spoke, her eyes turned to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen was a little confused, he really couldn't figure out Zhao Roujia's intentions, so he couldn't help saying: "If you have something to say, just say it, we are brothers and sisters, do we still have to go around in circles?"

"Official, this is a big deal. It belongs to the official, how can you go and take it yourself?" Zhao Roujia ignored Zhao Chen and asked again.
