Chapter 236 Confiscation of the house! The relationship between Wang Lin and the royal family of Zhao Song
Chapter 236 Confiscating the house! The relationship between Wang Lin and the royal family of Zhao and Song Dynasties
Prince Zhao Huan personally presided over the large-scale cleanup after King Yun's rebellion. In fact, in addition to agreeing on the crimes of the rebels and executing them, the main purpose was to confiscate the homes!
The entire clan was expropriated, the stolen money was confiscated and returned to the national treasury!
Long Xiang's army immediately launched Operation Thunder.
King Yun, King Yan, King Wu... no one from the clan, princes, county princes, or court officials involved in the case, such as Lu Yihao, was spared.
Zhao Huan vented all his grievances on the action of ransacking his house.
If there is even the slightest sign, disaster will spread to relatives.
As a result, the capital was in a state of panic and people were in panic, almost to the point where the powerful people in every family closed their doors and everyone was in danger.
But for most people outside the core elite class, it actually doesn't have much impact. They just listen to music, dance, recite poems and compose poems, and the romance continues as before.
According to regulations, the autumn period in various places has ended, and candidates from outside Beijing have begun to rush to the capital one after another, preparing to participate in the exams after the Spring Festival next year.
So this late October in Tokyo, the autumn wind is desolate and the weather is cool, but it is the time of year when scholars gather together.
Due to the rebellion that just ended, Wang Lin once again became the focus of attention from both the government and the public. In the past two days, the more ferocious Zhao Huan's raids on his home became, the more rumors and discussions about Wang Lin filled the streets.
Especially people who are scholars.
Wang Lin has been very silent these past two days, as if he has disappeared from the sight of the government and the public. However, his tiger guards are still in the palace to protect the safety of the officials and their families.
Three thousand Fuhu cavalry were also stationed in the west camp of the imperial city according to Zhao Ji's wishes. Obviously, for Zhao Ji, the Fuhu Army was more trustworthy than the Beijing Camp Forbidden Army.
Zhao Ji even personally ordered people to reward him. Each of the two thousand tiger guards received a consistent reward, as did the three thousand Fuhu cavalry.
However, what the government and the public did not expect was that all the Tiger Guards and Fuhu Army, after receiving rewards from the emperor, were collectively returned to the public, and handed over to the army to be used for the compensation of their fallen comrades.
Since the last time the Khitan wolf cavalry surrounded Tokyo, this has almost become a routine of the Fuhu Army.
If you live, you will fight to the death, and if you die, you will be honored, and your family and descendants will receive generous pensions.
This alone, when the news came out, was enough to shock the entire court.
Li Gang and Zhang Shu sighed incessantly at night. Wang Lin had commanded the army in this way. The army was united and disciplined. Given time, they would be invincible in the world.
The Fuhu Army has only been established for a short period of time, but in terms of combat power and military appearance, it is actually no less than the Western Army.
You must know that the Western Army has been an army for 200 years and has gone through countless battles. It can be said that it has been tempered for thousands of times. However, the Western Army at this time is far less than it was at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
It is also worth mentioning the Tiger Guards. This special force followed Wang Lin in his surprise attack on Goryeo and was sent as envoy to the Kingdom of Jin. They were carefully selected and trained in actual combat. Each one of them was as brave as a hundred, and they were invincible.
In fact, Wang Lin was in the city, just hiding in his mansion to get together with Zhao Fujin, and occasionally going to the Han family to visit relatives.
Although this rebellion did not involve the Han family and other high-ranking families in the capital, many people still felt uneasy, so they tried every means to get the Qi couple to come forward and invite Wang Lin to a banquet, just to get a promise and feel at ease.
.
Wang Lin showed up at a banquet held at the Han family, and then left the banquet with an excuse.
On the way back from the Han family, they happened to encounter the Zhu family being ransacked.
Less than half a year after her marriage to Princess Yun, Zhu Fengying, she hit a pillar and died, thus becoming a victim.
Immediately afterwards, Crown Princess Zhu Lian was deposed and deported from the palace. Zhu Bocai was dismissed from office and his family was exiled.
Wang Lin stood at the corner of the street and watched the main entrance of Zhu's house open, surrounded by two groups of Longxiang Army soldiers. He was shouting to disperse the onlookers, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
In an imperial society, powerful people often thrive and die suddenly. The Zhu family was originally the top powerful people in the Song Dynasty, relatives of the emperor, and two concubines in the family. How glorious and respected, but in the end, their family was ruined overnight.
, the vast expanse of white is so clean.
Therefore, in the final analysis, your destiny must still be in your own hands. No matter how prosperous the Holy Family is, there will be a day when the grace will be gone.
Others say that Wang Lin is a lucky minister, but in fact he is more sober than anyone else.
His relationship with the Zhao and Song royal family was more like a cooperative relationship.
Just keep your heart, no matter what others say!
This Zhu Bocai has a weak character, is greedy for wealth, and likes extravagance. Such a person may prey on the people, take bribes and bend the law, but he will definitely not participate in rebellion because he is afraid of death.
Of course, in King Yun's eyes, the Zhu family must also be trash who can't achieve anything.
But despite this, he was still ruthlessly implicated in this case.
This was already within Wang Lin's expectation.
Zhao Huan is so sensitive and suspicious at the moment. After all, Zhu Fengying is Princess Yun, and she cannot be cleansed anyway.
After this incident, the Zhu family will definitely be blacklisted by him.
In fact, it is all the fault of oneself, and there is no one to blame.
When the Zhu family made their bets, they never thought about the dangers involved.
A pretty face with skin as thick as gel and brows as light as smoke suddenly appeared in front of Wang Lin's eyes.
He sighed softly and walked slowly.
Yan Qing hurriedly led two tiger guards to follow closely.
The Lion Street where the Zhu family is located used to be crowded with dignitaries and there was a constant flow of cars and horses, but now there are only a few people walking on the empty street. Which high-class house dares to open its doors to welcome guests again?
The bleak autumn wind picked up several yellow pages and slowly drifted into the distance.
Wang Lin walked leisurely and turned to another, more lively Xinglong Street.
It was indeed a different scene.
On the Xinghua Tower, scholars gathered and the crowd was buzzing.
Wang Lin stood on the roadside and looked up, and saw a lot of people upstairs, as if there was a banquet.
Many of the scholars holding books in their hands were basically young people in their late teens or early twenties. They came in a hurry with smiles on their faces.
Wang Lin said, "Students these days only need to have a decent family background, hold a book in their hands, hang a jade pendant or sachet on their waist, put a flower on their hair, and be followed by one or two handsome little book boys.
It has almost become standard.
In fact, the scene is quite big.
Reading can lead to enlightenment and wisdom, but the ultimate goal of studying is to become an official.
Because the emperor of the Song Dynasty and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together, the status of scholars can be imagined.
Not to mention the two hundred years of emphasis on civil service over military affairs, the status of civil servants has long been out of reach, and has even eclipsed the imperial power.
It cannot be said that this was the only factor in the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, but it must be an important factor.
Wang Lin stopped and chuckled at Yan Qing: "Yan Qing, you go back first, I'll go in and watch the excitement."
Although Yan Qing agreed, he did not return home. Instead, he took the two tiger guards to the tea shop across the street and waited silently.
Nowadays, the situation in the capital is surging, and he really doesn't feel at ease if he is left alone.
On a whim, Wang Lin planned to go in to see if there were any other tricks besides reciting poems and writing poems at the literary banquets held by scholars in these days.
As a result, I heard that the second floor has been reserved by Han Ting, the young master of the Han family, and no one can enter without an invitation.
Han Ting is Han Yan's half-brother. Although he is a concubine born to his aunt, he is talented in literature and is very popular with Han Jiayan.
She is the only daughter of Han Yan's family. It is likely that it will be her brother who is a concubine and will inherit the family business and support the Han family in the future.
Therefore, the Han family is fully committed to cultivating Han Ting. Han Ting is hardworking and extremely talented. There will be no accidents in the exams next year and he should be able to go to high school.
As long as he passes the Jinshi title, Han Ting can become an official in the court and become the leader of this generation of the Han family.
Han Ting was very famous among the scholars in the capital.
The Han family's family background, personal talent and learning, and handsome appearance are all his unparalleled assets.
Although today's literary meeting was nominally convened by Han Ting, it was actually led by Zheng Lin, the son of the Zheng family in Xingyang, Wang Yu from the Wang family in Langya, and Wang Ping from the Wang family in Sanhuaitang.
The Langya Wang family has a long history, originating in the Qin and Han Dynasties. Needless to say, it goes without saying that the family has a history of thousands of years.
The Wang family of Sanhuaitang is not simple either. Wang Ping is the great-grandson of Wang Su, and Wang Su is the youngest son of the famous prime minister Wang Dan.
Wang Su's grandfather, Wang You, was a famous minister in the early Song Dynasty. He was kind throughout his life and protected ministers many times.
Wang You planted three locust trees with his own hands before his death. He pointed at the locust trees and said: "My descendants must have officials up to three nobles. I planted this tree as a proof."
These three locust trees are the origin of the famous family "Sanhuaitang Wang Family".
Wang Su's father, Wang Dan, assisted Emperor Zhenzong in creating the prosperous "Xianping Rule". He was in power for 18 years and served as prime minister for 12 years.
Scholars from all over the country flocked to the cultural gathering jointly invited by the four Han Ting people.
Of course, due to the limited space, those who could come were more or less celebrities recognized by the four people.
The clerk at Xinghualou saw that Wang Lin was beautifully dressed. Although he couldn't take out the invitation, he took out a piece of silver.
Wang Lin put the silver ingot into the clerk's hand and chuckled: "Brother, I'm just going to take a look and leave. I won't cause trouble. Please give me a convenience."
The waiter smiled brightly, pointed to the stairs in a low voice and said, "Let's go, Sir. You don't have an invitation, so just sit down outside and watch the excitement."
Wang Lin nodded and went up.
The entire second floor was crowded with dozens of well-dressed scholars, who were listening to a handsome young man's talk.
Wang Lin stood behind the crowd, listened briefly, and then found a corner to sit down.
Everyone around him was listening carefully, and no one noticed his arrival.
It is nothing more than the Four Books and Five Classics.
Wang Lin was not interested, but he caught a glimpse of Han Ting sitting on the main seat.
Blue Confucian shirt, thin figure, delicate facial features, elegant temperament, but a bit more feminine.
Wang Lin had met Han Ting twice, but they didn't have much interaction with each other.
On the left and right sides of Han Ting, there were three equally handsome young men of the same age sitting on their backs.
Scholars kept asking for speeches, and the content of their talks was nothing more than topics for future exams, poems, verses, scriptures, theories, strategies, etc. The more Wang Lin listened, the more confused he became, and he regretted that he should not have come up to join in the fun.
Many people said that it was unwise for him to give up liberal arts and study martial arts. In fact, he had no choice.
Poetry, lyrics, and songs were okay, after all, he could copy them, but asking him to take exams on these Four Books and Five Classics would really cost him his life.
Fortunately, this group of scholars discussed the content of the examination questions, and the focus of attention quickly shifted elsewhere.
It was nothing more than the current situation, political affairs, economy, and people's livelihood. Wang Lin was originally listening to it with interest, but he must admit that many people are quite insightful.
But unexpectedly, a scholar from the Li family in Longxi suddenly turned the topic to the question of who was superior in literature, martial arts and Wang Lin.
As a result... doubts arose.
In particular, there are many people who complain about Qin Hui.
