"father."

Ouyang Bian said in a muffled voice.

"Um."

Ouyang Xiu touched his youngest hair.

"The little pomegranate is dead."

Ouyang Xiu stood up and he knew about Little Pomegranate. The little girl often came to Bizhu and Yaoer. He had seen her several times and was a very cute little girl.

It turns out that it is because of this. No wonder the young man is so depressed. The first time a child has experienced life and death, the impact on him should be huge.

"Monk..."

Ouyang Xiu thought carefully.

"... Although I don't know how the little pomegranate dies, people will die after all, so don't be too sad."

Ouyang Bian crawled out of Ouyang Xiu's arms and stood barefoot on the carpet. The stove in the room was burning as warm as spring, so he was not afraid of the cold.

Ouyang Bian said seriously: "She was beaten to death."

Ouyang Xiu suddenly became serious: "What the hell is going on?"

Ouyang Bian retweeted Bizhu's words in full, and the more Ouyang Xiu listened, the more serious he became.

Ouyang Bian finally said: "...Little Pomegranate was only in her early teens. Before her life began, she was beaten to death.

She is a little maid, but after all, they are all living people and the jewel of their parents' eyes.

When she met her before, she said excitedly that she helped her family solve a big problem.

She loves her parents, brothers, and loves life, why can’t she control her destiny?”

Ouyang Xiu nodded: "I understand this, I will seek justice for Xiao Pomegranate."

Ouyang Bian nodded: "Dad, I think Cai Xiang will come to you soon. If he comes to you, you will say so to him..."

Ouyang Bian leaned over to Ouyang Xiu and said for a while. Ouyang Xiu's eyes became more and more surprised: "Did you think of this yourself?"

Ouyang Bian nodded: "Chen Zhizhong is in a high position and his concubine beats the maid to death. He is also guilty.

He will definitely obstruct the investigation of the case, so this matter must be strictly arrested from the beginning. He cannot give him any room for reaction to be able to kill with one blow, otherwise there will be more dreams!"

Ouyang Xiu hesitated a little: "This is what his concubine did wrong. Will it be unfair to him?"

Ouyang Bian smiled: "How is Chen Zhizhong?"

Ouyang Xiu became silent.

Everyone knows what Chen Zhizhong is like.

During the Zhenzong Dynasty, Chen Zhizhong used his father's Yin as the secretary's official character, which means that he did not have the imperial examinations.

People at that time were very fond of imperial examinations. Taizu repeatedly emphasized that the prime minister had to use scholars, so other civil officials did not have a good impression of Chen Zhizhong.

It’s nothing to rely on his family background, but not only does Chen Zhizhong not have an imperial examination, he is promoted very quickly!

In September of the fourth year of Qingli, he was appointed as the chief minister of the government. Half a year later, he was promoted to Jixian Prime Minister and Privy Councilor. In the seventh year of Qingli, he was admitted to Zhaowen and the Minister of History Museum!

It would be fine if you just do this. If you don’t have an education, you can do things.

However, Chen Zhizhong was ignorant and destroyed the etiquette. In the third year of Tianxi, Zhenzong, Chen Zhizhong was not familiar with the examination regulations as an organizing official. He was obviously the prime minister of the head of all officials, but he could not even maintain etiquette and law.

Moreover, this person is vengeful. In the fifth year of Qingli, Chen Zhizhong was in the center at that time and disagrees with Du Yan, so he repeatedly underestimated Du Yan.

The reason why Ouyang Xiu was very clear about this is because Du Yan was one of the important figures in the Qingli reform and Ouyang Xiu's comrade-in-arms.

When Chen Zhizhong saw that Qingli New Party lost power, he was the one who took the blame to the point.

Ouyang Xiu didn't know about other bad deeds such as tyrannical power, citing treacherous people, etc.

Ouyang Xiu nodded: "Okay, I understand.

By the way, today Jiefu asked me to discuss the wealth theory with me. He was hesitating whether to publish the wealth theory and ask me for my opinion. I want to know what you think."

This is a matter.

Ouyang Bian thought for a while and said, "What kind of reaction do you think will cause after publication?"

Ouyang Xiu's face was a little serious: "It's hard to say, but there must be many moral gentlemen who will stand up and blast you."

Ouyang Bian walked a few steps on the soft blanket with his barefoot hands on his back, and suddenly turned around and smiled, "Is my father a afraid person?"

Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but laugh.

Is he a fearful person?

Renzong once sacrificed to heaven and earth in the Circular Mound, issued an edict to entrust the royal family of the Five Dynasties and various countries.

At this time, Shi Jie wrote a letter to object to the chief clerk of the Censor General Du Yan, because he was recommended by the Censor General Du Yan.

He angered Renzong all of a sudden, so he was dismissed from his post.

At that time, the ministers also thought Ishisuke was doing something wrong.

He had a low status and even made a false advice and obstacles to what the emperor had done. He deserved to be dismissed.

Ouyang Xiu had just recovered from illness and returned to work at Chongwen Academy. After hearing about this, he felt that public opinion was unfair.

He felt that Ishisuke's theory was not faulty.

"I haven't walked through the threshold of the platform, but I've just finished seeing each other because of my words.

It is truly upright, strong and clear, and not afraid to avoid it."

Such a righteous man can not only be a lie, but also be a censor directly.

However, Du Yan, the recommended candidate of Shi Jie, surrendered to the emperor's will and did not dare to stand up and speak.

Only he wrote the article "A letter to Du Zhongcheng on the Promotion of Officials" overnight.

"Even if the emperor likes it, if the person is not filial, he should shoot it and take it away;

Even if the emperor hates it, if the person is virtuous, he should take it and exaggerate it."

The sound of integrity is deafening.

He advocated the spirit of affairs and even punished the elderly and virtuous elders.

During the Qingli period, Fan Zhongyan initiated the Qingli New Policy.

Fan Zhongyan was concerned about corruption in the administration of officials, while he was concerned about financial problems and wrote a long paper "Original Disadvantages".

With his sharp strokes, he exposed the common disadvantages of "the disadvantage of seducing the people", "the disadvantage of mergers", "the disadvantage of labor", "the disadvantage of not measuring the people's strength as a conscience", "not measuring what the power of heaven" and other disadvantages were common at that time.

For a moment, the insults came like a tide, but he was fearless.

Later, Lu Yijian falsely accused Fan Zhongyan and others of forming cliques, Yu Jing and Yin Zhu were demoted one after another, and the censors, who were responsible for regulating the gains and losses of the government, remained silent because of fear.

What is particularly annoying is that the Zuo Sijian Gao Ruonai also criticized Fan Zhongyan at a party, believing that he deserved the crime.

He immediately stepped forward and retorted, and later wrote the article "Letter to the Higher Sergeant".

To be honest, in such a severe political context at that time, he knew very well what consequences such a letter would bring to him.

But at the end of the article, he still wrote with sarcastic meaning:

If you still say that you are a friend who is not virtuous, then what I say now is like, that is, you are a friend and evil person.

I hope that I will bring this book to the court, and that Zheng will punish him and make him relieved, so that everyone in the world will be relieved to know that Xiwen should be expelled, and that it will also be a warning to the ministers!

It's so satisfying!

He has done such things and I don’t know how many!

Fear of trouble?

When did Ouyang Xiu be afraid of him? He was never afraid of trouble!

When Ouyang Bian saw Ouyang Xiu standing proudly, he was quite proud of his father:

"Ouyang Xiu is not a person who is afraid of trouble. Could it be that Ouyang Xiu's son Ouyang Bian is a person who is afraid of trouble?"
