Chapter 496 Wen Yanbo: I am indeed old!(1/3)
Guihai (the seventh day of the lunar month) in the fifth month of the first year of Yuanyou.
Zhao Xu came out of the palace in person, surrounded by the ministers and the imperial guards, and went to Qinxian's house in Xianyifang to express his condolences and visit to the two imperial uncles and their sons.
Naturally, I also met Zhao Xiaoqian, who was only fourteen years old now, encouraged him and gave him a jade belt.
Then, they are nephews and uncles.
Returning to the palace, he reported to the two palaces, and all the officials said: The ministers support your majesty, you are lucky to have a good relationship with your house, the two kings serve you respectfully, the princes support the emperor, the affection is expressed in words, your majesty treats him with kindness. Proper etiquette, good appearance and good preparation are the blessings of the country and the dynasty!
When the two palaces heard about it, they issued an edict to the Academy of Academicians to compose a poem, saying: The former emperor was devoted to his brother's kindness and won over his righteousness with kindness. He did not allow his second uncle to move abroad. The law of the imperial court is to use righteousness to control kindness. At the invitation of the two kings, he went out to the outer house to get the righteousness of Confucius and his son! Now, His Majesty the Emperor, personally favors the residence of the two kings, and bestows favors on the two kings and their relatives in the way of intimacy. My disciples, this is the way to become a king and serve your second uncle! The saints are different, but they all belong to the way, and they can be the Dharma for all ages.
The Empress Dowager was very happy after seeing the lyrics. When she learned that the person who wrote the lyrics was Fan Chunren, a Hanlin scholar, she was immediately overjoyed and said with emotion: "Sure enough, he is indeed Mr. Fan Wenzheng, who is well versed in the way of a saint."
This word was written into her heart.
The heavenly family is indeed a harmonious family, loving each other without any worries.
That sentence can be a law for all generations, which made the Empress Dowager extremely happy.
So the imperial edict granted Fan Chunren a jade belt and four hundred additional households.
This is also one of the benefits of having in-house Ci Chen.
If a word is well written, it will win the favor of the Heavenly Family. Simplicity will be in the Emperor's heart and he will be regarded as a confidant.
It is also the reason why Hanlin bachelors are regarded as having four heads.
Therefore, after sending people to communicate with the Empress Dowager and Zhao Xu, he ordered Yousi to add Xu Wanghao and Jingwang County, and give the envoys 5,000 guan each year, in order to express their kinship with the country, and the special decree was carried out. To give, that is to say, there is no need to save money, it is always a thousand cash.
But the Empress Dowager would not know that when she was happy, there was already an undercurrent surging in Bianjing City.
Following this, Bianjing Xinbao tracked the "possible" "torture to extract confessions" in Yushitai for two consecutive days.
Some people began to sit still.
The supervisory censor, Li Xinglu Tao, suddenly began to impeach Wang Zishao, who wanted to be a doctor in the imperial examination, and appointed him as the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
The reason is simple.
Wang Zishao is an ugly and careless person.
It means that the character is not good, the morals are corrupt, and it can be said that there is nothing except ability.
And Wang Zishao is a standard New Party official.
At the beginning of Xining's reform, the old party literati and officials organized the "Ya Nei Diamond" as one of the "Ten Diamonds".
This means that this person specializes in maintaining relationships within the bureaucracy, playing clingy ways to gain advancement, and running for important positions in the ministry.
As soon as Zhao Xu saw the bullets sent by Tongjian Si, he laughed: "Sure enough, some people can't sit still."
If he had not studied abroad in modern times, he might have been confused by this article that seemed to have nothing to do with the Li Yong case.
You would think that this matter has nothing to do with the Li Yong case.
It's a pity that he studied abroad in modern times.
Moreover, he studied under the top domestic experts on Song history.
There are many museums and libraries in various places.
Many details were also explained by the teacher.
Of course, just look at the name of the person who was impeached, and then look at the name of the person who was impeached.
He already knew the intentions of these people.
"This is leading us in the direction of party struggle!"
"How brave!"
Zhao Xu might be able to tolerate other things.
However, if someone wants to cause trouble in the court and start a party dispute, then he will not be polite.
Zhao Xu put down the bullet and hooked his hands at Feng Jing.
Feng Jing immediately came to him: "What are your orders?"
"Where is the Queen Mother now?" Zhao Xu asked.
"Reporting to everyone, I heard that the Queen Mother is in Baoci Palace today, chatting with the late Emperor's concubines."
"The Empress Dowager, Concubine Lin Xian, Concubine Xing, Concubine Wu De, etc. are all here."
"Oh..." Zhao Xu nodded and told him: "You can go to Baoci Palace to send a message, saying that the weather is good today, and I would like to invite my mother to come to Funing Palace to enjoy the flowers."
"promise!"
Watching Feng Jingyuan go, Zhao Xu grinned.
"Lu Tao and Lu Yuanjun..."
"That's not surprising!"
This man is a fellow countryman and good friend of Sansu, and he was a Jinshi in Huangyou's fourth year.
Among the old party, he is well-known as a leader and a standard clean figure.
This person's talent is pretty good.
During the Xining period, I passed the imperial examination!
It should be noted that there is a higher achievement than the Jinshi in the Song Dynasty.
This is the exam, and the difficulty of the exam. Needless to say, those who can pass the exam are academic and talented candidates. Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, only thirty people have passed the exam so far.
One of them is in the present capital hall - Zuo Xiang, written by Shen Guogong and Lu Gong.
Great writers and scholars such as Su Shi and Li Gou were also Jinshi.
This Lu Tao is extraordinary.
And Zhao Xu knew a detail. In the past, the person who recommended Lu Tao to join the manufacturing department was named Zu Wuze.
This person is a veteran of Jiayou, and his qualifications are almost as high as those of Wen Yanbo.
Zu Wuze actively participated in the ancient Chinese revival movement of that year, advocating schools and promoting education.
As a result, he became famous all over the world and enjoyed great reputation all over the world.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would have already entered the three provinces and two governments, and could even become a senator like Sima Guang and Lu Gongzhu.
So, why didn’t Zu Wuze become Sima Guang and Lu Gongzhu?
The answer is - he was caught by Wang Anshi's chicken feet.
Corruption! Corruption! Party formation!
With three consecutive blows, Zu Wuze's reputation was completely ruined and he was demoted to the deputy envoy of the Zhongzheng Army. In the Song Dynasty, when an important minister to be controlled was demoted to the deputy envoy of a certain Jiedu, it basically declared to the world that this person's guilt was confirmed.
Moreover, the emperor was very angry, so he did not punish him severely just because of the dignity of the scholar-bureaucrats.
And disappearing into the court with Zu Wuze were two bad habits since the founding of the Song Dynasty.
One is that Hanlin bachelors had a bad rule of polishing their pens when writing for others. In the old system, Hanlin bachelors and Zhongshushe people all used polished pens when writing internal and external poems.
Generally, Hanlin bachelors can make two hundred guans in one course, and 100 guan in Zhongshusheren.
After Zu Wuze was demoted, Hanlin bachelors in the Academy and Zhongshusheren in the capital no longer accepted polishing pens.
Another thing that disappeared with it was the imperial examinations since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the gratitude silver presented to the emperor by new scholars.
Yes, you read that right!
Before Xining, the new scholars had to present silver to the emperor on the day they were released from the imperial examination.
Not much, a hundred taels per person, a child and an old man without any deception.
So the imperial examination was held every three years, and each time two to three hundred Jinshi were admitted, the emperor could get two to thirty thousand taels of silver, which was a blessing.
And the relatives are even more beautiful.
Every time this time comes, it is their opportunity to make a fortune.
The thank you silver presented to the emperor naturally cannot be of too poor quality - this new Jinshi, you don't want your silver to be missed by the officials because of its poor quality, right? Come on, I have official silver of high quality here.
It’s stamped by Zuo Zangku!
By pressing this fingerprint, you can present it to the officials.
The interest required is not much, 30% to 50% per year.
You have to ask, what should I do if I can’t afford the loan and can’t pay it back?
Be with a rich woman!
There are many wealthy businessmen in Bianjing who are willing to spend a lot of money to choose a Jinshi husband for their daughter.
On the day the results are released, as long as someone shouts: Winning.
Guaranteed to be around at once, seventy or eighty people, picked up the people and ran away.
Even if you are fifty or sixty years old, you can still marry a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl and get a generous dowry ranging from several thousand dollars.
