Chapter 845: The Son of Heaven, Shengming's Heart is in Song Dynasty
Lin'an Palace Temple, Jinyan Hall.
"Guan family, Wang Zhaoyi has arrived."
When Wang Qinghui entered the palace, Zhao Fu was squatting on the blanket and playing marbles with a group of beauties.
He flicked his fingers, and the marble rolled into the skirt of a beautiful woman, so he put his hand under the skirt and touched it.
After that, Zhao Fu smiled and took another sip of wine, leaning drunkenly in the arms of another beauty. Then he said to Wang Qinghui: "Take out my jade seal and stamp the imperial edict."
With a graceful gait, Wang Qinghui walked to the imperial desk, picked up the imperial decree, took a look at it, and asked: "Does the official agree to remove Ping Zhanggong?"
"The Queen Mother, the Empress, and the teachers all said that it was the Master who forced Li Xia to rebel, so in order to stabilize the situation, we had to let the Master take care of her. What a beauty, what do you think?"
Zhao Fu had many women, among whom Wang Qinghui and Wang Zhaoyi were the most talented.
Zhaoyi was also one of the nine concubines. Although Wang Qinghui's status in the harem was not as good as that of Queen Quan, Concubine Yang Shu, and Concubine Hu, she was trusted by Zhao Bao.
If we talk about the power of the emperor Zhao Fu, Jia Sidao took most of it, and the ministers, the queen mother, and the empress took a small part, almost dividing it up.
But they still left some power to Zhao Yu out of respect, and this power was in the hands of Wang Qinghui.
She has a photographic memory, is erudite and talented, and is in charge of the inner court documents for Zhao Fu.
Throughout the ages, women like her who interfered in politics were scolded by civil servants, but Wang Qinghui was rarely scolded.
On the one hand, the documents she can handle have basically been reviewed by the officials, and on the other hand, she is indeed very capable and can handle them better than the officials themselves.
At this time, Wang Qinghui read the entire imperial edict, pondered for a moment, and asked: "Didn't the officials say that you cannot offend Ping Zhanggong?"
Zhao Yu said: "That's right, but the Prime Minister hasn't shown up for a long time. The Queen said that the Prime Minister himself was guilty of staying at home because he was frightened by Li Xia and didn't want to be an official. It would be better to let him be raised honorably and let the teacher handle state affairs instead."
Wang Qinghui brought up the imperial pen and prepared to approve the imperial edict.
She glanced around and hesitated a little.
"Don't let yourself be indulged in the luxury of being in the palace, don't use flattery and flattery as a pretense, practice your orders and make it clear to the world..."
In addition to deposing Jia Sidao, this imperial edict clearly also had the meaning of an edict against oneself.
Wang Qinghui also knew that these husbands were doing it for the good of the official family.
Li Xia's self-reliance should make the officials realize that they cannot continue like this.
But as Zhao Fu's most trusted person, she still asked: "Has the official read this imperial edict?"
"No, aren't the beauties looking at it for me?" Zhao Fu, who was lying on the ground, raised his upper body and asked, "Is it wrong? I feel a little scared too."
"There's nothing too wrong. A few husbands just said that officials should be more diligent in their work, so as to appease people's hearts."
"yes."
Zhao Yu suddenly exclaimed and stopped playing. He said anxiously: "If I don't have my master, won't I have to be controlled by these old masters?! Ah... I never thought of it before."
This change of attitude was so sudden that even Wang Qinghui was stunned.
Zhao Yu thought about it, kicked down the wine bottle, and let the wine spill on the expensive carpet. He hurried to the imperial case and snatched the imperial edict.
"Stop criticizing me. I let the Queen Mother and the Queen be deceived. How could I not have a mentor..."
With a sound, the imperial edict was torn in half.
~~
"What's the rush? What's the point of letting them remove me?"
"What's alarming is that this time the Queen Mother and the Queen really stood there."
"Two women who have never had any opinions, no matter what they do..."
In Geling Villa, Jia Sidao had long known that the court officials had taken action against him.
He was in no hurry at all.
Li Xiacai proclaimed himself King of Qin, and if the courtiers are allowed to bear the responsibility of condoning rebellion, they will be punished sooner or later.
As for being dismissed?
The civil servants in Lin'an still don't understand that Jia Sidao's standing in the court relies on more than just his holy family.
Rather, it is from his contribution to various great achievements such as guarding Jinghu with Meng Gong, to his command of Jinghu and Huaihe River, to his rebuilding of the Song Dynasty in the Battle of Ezhou, and the prestige he established in the army.
Besides Jia Sidao, who else can restrain such arrogant and powerful generals as Lu Jiajun.
Now it looks like he is about to be dismissed, but in fact it is because he has not taken any action since he was convicted of crimes, giving people the false impression that he has no intention of party fighting.
He was just avoiding Li Xia's sharpness temporarily, waiting for Li Xia's sharpness to pass before he could make a comeback.
That day, when he was discussing the matter with Weng Yinglong, Jia Sidao had just finished saying the word "not in a hurry" when Gui Hepu came over in a hurry.
"Alang, someone is coming from the palace. Please invite Alang into the palace."
"Why do you want to go to the palace?" Jia Sidao said with a smile: "The time has not come yet, I will still bear the sin at home."
"The officials said they would send someone to tell Alang." Gui Hepu looked around, lowered his voice, and said a little mysteriously: "The officials said they asked Alang to come to the palace to see him, and begged Alang not to be angry again."
"Ha, why am I angry?"
"The official also said that those people wanted to remove Alang, and he wanted to remove them all. He only hoped that Alang could return to the government as soon as possible."
"..."
Jia Sidao was also surprised. After a moment, he shook his head and said with a wry smile: "In this case, it's hard to refuse such kindness."
How could the officials of the Song Dynasty expect to be persuaded if they were so virtuous?
Only by relying on Jia Sidao to govern the country on behalf of the emperor can we turn the tide in times of crisis.
~~
Jiang Wanli, Jia Xuanweng is still waiting for the emperor to issue an edict, preparing to bring order to the Song Dynasty.
"What you said is true. If the emperor does not cheer up, he can only rely on his powerful ministers and vassal ministers to save the country, but he is too suspicious. How can he not destroy the country?"
"In the past few years, Li Xia repeatedly broke into captivity, which gave many people in the court the illusion of a peaceful and prosperous life. Once he became independent, it was time to wake up."
"If you want to prevent Jia and Li Zhiliu from rebelling, you can't just hope that they have no ambitions. You must teach the people of the world that they should not rebel. Therefore, the emperor must implement good government and treat the people well, and the people will be able to protect the emperor."
"The only way to save the nation is in the word 'wise'."
Jia Xuanweng patted his knees, his face filled with anticipation.
Everything went smoothly this time. So far, Jia Sidao has not reacted at all.
Just wait until Jia Sidao, a treacherous person like Jia Sidao who indulges the officials and dominates the government, gets out, then he can "persuade" the officials properly.
Finally, the edict was issued.
"Fang Shanjing, Liu Chenweng, Deng Yan, and Huang Yong, who were Jinshi of Renxu, slandered the state affairs and were dismissed from office..."
First, batches of loyal and outspoken officials were dismissed, and then important ministers either retired from their posts or were demoted to other places.
The officials took pity on Ye Mengding's old age and gave him a special gift to the young master to serve as a bachelor of Guanwen Palace.
Zhang Jian promoted Dongxiao Palace to official positions;
Ma Qianluan was demoted to Raozhou;
At this point, Jiang Wanli, the emperor of the family did not have to wait for the imperial edict to receive a false position and be humiliated, he resigned from the official position.
…
On the day they left Lin'an, they couldn't describe how they felt.
The country's power is declining, and every possible solution has been tried. Even the last glimmer of hope has been tried with all one's strength.
When Jia Xuanweng stepped on the boat, he was still thinking about how he had suffered so many arrogances and was so angry in the end.
"It really fits Wu Lvzhai's saying, 'There is no way to serve the country, nothing to blame oneself, and there is no one to complain about when there is a way to save the country.' I only regret that I was not demoted to Xunzhou when this faint king succeeded to the throne."
"Stop scolding."
"I want to scold you, the clan is here, but it still only indulges in wine and sex, and gives up power to the sycophants... Bah!"
Jiang Wanli let out a long sigh and asked his son to put the only baggage he had to bring with him when leaving Beijing into the cabin of the boat, and sat on the bow. Thinking about it later, he felt heartbroken.
"I traveled eight thousand miles away from my home country, but I have never loved half a penny in my life. Heaven recognizes my selfless intentions, and I will not let the monsters cry out for injustice at night."
~~
Quan Jiu didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Half of the country was cut off by Li Xia, and after such a big incident happened, she thought that no matter how stupid Zhao Fu was, he would know how to rectify the imperial court.
Even if Jia Sidao cannot be really dismissed, as the emperor, he should give this powerful prime minister a beating so that he will be more interested in governing the country in the future, and also curb Li Xia.
However, suddenly, the clear stream in the middle of the court was completely empty.
Quan Jiu was really shocked.
Even she could see that the balance in the court had been completely broken.
If Jia Sidao wanted to usurp the throne, he would not know what to do.
How could he not be shocked or afraid? The moment Quanjiu received the news, he felt a chill running down his spine.
It was rare for her to get up from the Jinyan Palace and wanted to find Zhao Yu to find out.
She never came to Jinrou Palace in the past, and I don't know what kind of expectations she had this time... maybe she wanted to see if her emperor husband still had any sense.
"Hahaha……"
"Hey, let me have another drink..."
The cooing sounds throughout the hall suddenly stopped.
"Emperor...Queen..."
"saint."
"saint."
Quan Jiu walked into the hall dignifiedly and glanced around.
Wang Zhaoyi, Hu Guibi, Zhu Chun'er, Zhu Xia'er, Zhu Duan'er, Zhu Mei'er, Zhou Dong'er, Shi Run'er, Zhou Sai'er, Wen Run'er, Chen Yi'er, Huan Hua, Shen Xianning, Huang Xinping...
The beauties in the palace are all in different styles.
"Everyone, step back."
She was too lazy to remember their names, so she gave a light drink and looked at Zhao Yu.
Zhao Fu was startled.
He had always been a little afraid of this queen, so he quickly grabbed Wang Qinghui.
"Your Majesty." Quan Jiu suppressed her emotions and asked, "Your Majesty dismissed the princes, but because they canonized Li Xia, the court lost face?"
If this is the case, these officials should indeed be dealt with.
This is what she wanted to ask, whether Zhao Fu still has this sense.
At least it's for the sake of the country's dignity.
However, Zhao Yu said: "No...no."
"Why is that?"
Zhao Yu said matter-of-factly: "They want to control me! Of course, the teacher is the best. The teacher wants to build another palace for me to house the beauty..."
After saying that, he secretly glanced at Quanjiu and quickly looked back.
It means "Don't even think about controlling me."
Quan Jiu closed her eyes and calmed down, then asked: "But... Li has rebelled. If he attacks Lin'an, or even is attacked by others, how will he deal with it? Jia Pingzhang said it beautifully, but the defeat of Kuimen did not stop him.
Li Ni, isn’t it?”
This issue is too complex.
Zhao Yu pulled Wang Qinghui and muttered in a low voice: "Tell the queen. Tell the queen what the teacher said."
Wang Qinghui hurriedly expressed his blessings and said: "Sage, Jia Pingzhangyan... Zhou Yu's action at Red Cliff was made through laughter. Xie An Feishui's commander decided to command."
Quanjiu didn't wait for her to finish speaking, turned around and left.
I heard Zhao Yu whispering behind me: "Bring the beauties back quickly..."
After hearing these words, Quanjiu felt like crying but had no tears.
She wanted to turn around and pick up Wang Qinghui and ask her, "Your Majesty didn't know about the Jingkang changes, and you didn't know either?!" But no matter how smart that woman was, what could she influence?
Quan Jiu suddenly recalled the amazing and talented man she met on the Cuju court that year, and also thought of the day when her family asked her to marry Zhao Fu.
She shook her head and thought to herself, wondering what the use of all this was, as if she really had a choice at that time.
…
After Fengguan Xiapei's figure left, the Jin Yan Hall soon erupted in laughter and laughter again.
The influence and waves caused by the establishment of King Qin on Lin'an gradually melted away amidst the laughter and laughter.
~~
The river boat goes up the Yangtze River.
Lu Xiufu, who was unaware of the changes in Lin'an, was still writing furiously, writing thousands of words that he wanted to tell Li Xia painfully.
He is still doing his best to continue the Great Song Dynasty...
