Chapter 12 There are no rules in this court

Some people are incompetent, but when discussing issues, they immediately stand on the moral high ground and act like I'm all for your good, as if it's your fault if you argue with them.

Dealing with this kind of person is very simple, focus on the problem and don't talk about anything else!

When it comes to attacking people, Zhao Ning is not someone to be trifled with.

Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty and Zhao Huan couldn't do anything to you, and I still can't do anything to you?

Xu Bingzhe continued to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, with the current strength of the troops in the city, it is impossible to compete with the Jin people. Negotiating peace is the only way out."

To be honest, Xu Bingzhe jumped into this pit himself, and he himself regretted it, but right now, he had no way out.

I can only say it bravely.

His confidence comes from the fact that most people in the court are peace-minded.

Moreover, even if he offended Tianwei, he believed that the emperor would at most remove him from his post, but would not remove him from his official position.

This was basically how it was done before.

As long as you are not opposed by the majority of people in this court, you will not be demoted.

This was also one of the national conditions of the Song Dynasty and one of the methods used by Zhao officials to control their ministers.

Generally speaking, the political struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty still had a high bottom line.

And based on the current situation, it is impossible to defeat him. Even if the emperor becomes angry temporarily, he will still have to negotiate for peace when the time comes, and he will still be safe.

"Zhang Shuye." Zhao Ning's tone softened.

Zhang Shuye came out at night and said, "I'm here."

Everyone's eyes fell on Zhang Shuye again.

Isn't the emperor criticizing Xu Bingzhe?

Why did Zhang Shuye come out suddenly?

People can't understand it.

Zhao Ning said: "Have you ever worked at Qin Feng Road?"

(Qinfeng Road was one of the twenty-four roads in the Northern Song Dynasty. The roads in the Northern Song Dynasty were equivalent to the later provinces and belonged to the provincial level. Qinfeng Road was in the Shaanxi area, including part of Gansu later.)

"Reporting to your majesty, I once served as an official in Lanzhou and joined the army."

"Are there other military positions?"

"I once knew the Ansu Army."

Ansu Army was a local military region and military administrative region in the Song Dynasty, located in Xuzhou.

(There are prefectures, states, and armies below the road. The armies here are local military towns. For example, Ansu Army can be understood as Ansu Army Town.)

Zhang Shuye said that knowing the Ansu Army means being in charge of the Ansu Army, just like knowing Kaifeng Prefecture and serving as the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture.

Zhi'an Sujun is a military and political position.

"Then you answer my question."

"Your Majesty, please make it clear."

"What should we do if the morale of the army is shaken before the battle?"

As soon as the emperor said this, others immediately knew why the emperor wanted Zhang Shuye to come out.

Zhang Shuye was also shocked, but he immediately understood what he should say. He thought for a moment and said: "According to military law, he should be executed!"

"Okay! Someone, push Xu Bingzhe out and chop him!"

Xu Bingzhe looked confused, and so did the other ministers.

I almost thought I heard it wrong.

Damn it?

Are the officials trying to kill the minister?

The killing of ministers in the Song Dynasty touched the sensitive nerves of the scholar-bureaucrats.

Not killing civil servants was one of the basic national conditions of the Song Dynasty.

But it doesn’t mean there will be no killing at all.

At least when brothers Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi were in power, they killed a lot of people.

During the Shenzong Dynasty, Wang Anshi was engaged in the political reform, and Su Shi was jumping around. One day he was opposing the conservatives, and the next he was talking about the reformists. He was hated by both sides, and in the end he almost lost his life in the Wutai Poetry Case.

Later, when the Southern Song Dynasty was established, Zhao Gou also killed many ministers.

This also shows that if the Zhao Guan family really wants to kill the minister, they can do it.

As long as there is a good reason!

Besides, the current political situation is extremely special.

Wen Yanbo told Emperor Shenzong that kings and scholar-bureaucrats rule the world.

But the question is, what is the world like now governed by you, a group of scholar-officials?

The Jin people have all reached Tokyo City!

Do you still have the nerve to mention this to me?

The huge national defense crisis has had a huge impact on the past political formation.

In peacetime, it is really difficult to influence this group of scholar-bureaucrats.

But now that the country is ruined and the family is in ruins, firstly, Zhao Ning himself has already risked his life. He does not want to go to the north to live in a five-star hut. Secondly, countless people in Tokyo support the decisive battle, and he has a basic base. Thirdly, the main thing at present is

The conflict has shifted from an internal power conflict to a conflict between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty. If the conflict is moved to the outside, the impact of internal killings will become smaller.

In such a huge crisis, killing a surrender faction shocked the peace faction, but it catered to the wishes of the war faction.

The essence of the political game is that the minority obeys the majority.

Just make sure to stay within this framework and kill people like chickens.

Even though there were not many fighting factions in the court, there were quite a few fighting factions in the various armies of the Song Dynasty.

Although the famous Western Army of the Song Dynasty, the Southeast Army, and the three towns in Hebei and Hedong have fallen, the soldiers and civilians are still fighting to the death.

Zongze, who is nearby in Cizhou, Hebei Province, as well as Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and others who are about to rise in the near future, are all staunch militants.

At present, Zhang Shuye is also a staunch fighter.

What is Zhao Ning afraid of when he kills a surrender faction?

With righteousness in hand and the people's support in hand, if you want to kill, just kill!

Moreover, it was Zhang Shuye who said to kill Xu Bingzhe. I just asked him how to deal with it.

What is imperial power? This is it!

There are thresholds and methods for killing people.

Therefore, when Zhang Shuye answered the emperor's question, he answered bravely. He knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would offend the emperor and his faction to death.

But he had to say it because it was clearly stipulated in military law.

If you speak nonsense, it is the crime of deceiving the emperor.

From Zhao Ning's perspective, by using Zhang Shuye's words to kill Xu Bingzhe, Zhang Shuye was completely pushed into the hostile position of the peace faction, leaving no room for relaxation.

The court also needs a new balance.

After all, political balance is the most basic political method.

"Your Majesty, spare your life!" Xu Bingzhe was really scared now. He never thought that he might be killed.

This dynasty treats scholars and scholar-bureaucrats favorably.

But the problem is, it was a time of peace, and what is needed in peacetime is civil rule.

Now that troubled times are coming, the north has been defeated, and so many people have been killed in the war, including civilian officials and military generals. Heavy punishment is not a joke in troubled times.

Wang Shiyong immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty..."

"Don't speak yet, don't interrupt me!"

Wang Shiyong continued: "Your Majesty, Magistrate Xu didn't mean that, and Magistrate Xu is not a military or political official, so..."

"Do I allow you to speak? Are there any rules in this court? I am still not your emperor! If I abdicate, you, Wang Shiyong, will sit in this position!"

Now Wang Shiyong was frightened, and he quickly said: "Your Majesty, calm down, I don't dare, I don't dare."

Others originally planned to say something, but when they saw the emperor getting angry, they quickly fell silent.

The Great Song Dynasty stayed in the peaceful days for a long time. If people stay in the peaceful days for a long time, it will be easier for them to do things.

"Wang Zonglio! Drag Xu Bingzhe out to rectify the law on the spot to boost the morale of the army!"

Wang Zongliu, the commander of the front department, was confused. For a moment, he felt countless resentful eyes focused on him.

These scholar-bureaucrats are each more fierce than the last. Even a relative of the royal family like him would not dare to offend easily.

The pens of scholar-bureaucrats can write people to death!

The power of public opinion is in the hands of this group of scholars.

So he just stood there and pretended not to hear what the emperor said.

The other officials seemed to be saying: Wang Zonglio, if you dare to take action today, we will attack you in groups and drown you with spittle!

The air seemed to freeze suddenly.

In order to protect himself, Wang Zongliu pretended to faint and fell to the ground.
