Chapter 1339 The moderates in the old party
In the night, heavy rain splashed on Bianjing.
Candles swaying in the study room on Zhang Dun's mansion.
The sound of rain knocked on the window, and Zhang Dun stood in front of the map with his hands on his back.
"Tianjue, do you know what this Western Xia map is?" Zhang Dun asked Zhang Shangying beside him.
"The lower official is stupid."
"It's your majesty's hard work!" Zhang Dun said, "The Empress Dowager wants to break up this picture, but Zuo Kui and Lu Jifu insist on being upright. But what about you and me?"
Zhang Dun turned around and Zhang Shangying saw the other party's sword eyebrows lowered and his cheekbones were towering.
Zhang Shangying asked: "Zhang Xiang means"
"When the Yin and Taiwan Department submits a letter tomorrow, will you please submit a memorial for me in this letter "Ask the Queen to listen to the political commendation together?" Zhang Dun shook out a roll of gold paper from his sleeve, "Since the Queen Mother wants to learn from the Han Dynasty, let's find her a Dou Yifang!"
Under the light, Zhang Shangying's forehead sweat leaked out: "This move may touch the Queen Mother's backward scale."
Zhang Dun snorted lightly and said, "Don't you understand the Empress Dowager's kindness to Sima Junshi?"
"If you keep the right and compromise for a moment, you can protect the new law. Who doesn't know that the Queen Mother will expel us out of the court."
Thunder suddenly rose outside the window and the rain became heavier.
Zhang Shangying saw the Shuli "The queen is wise and should be divided into saints and worries". This sentence is like a sword and halberd stabbing at Empress Dowager Gao.
"The official will copy it now." Zhang Shangying said seriously.
Zhang Dun said: "After you submit a memorial, I will speak for you in the court and strongly advise the Queen Mother."
"We want the Empress Dowager to know that the Song Dynasty not only has the "Zizhi Tongjian", but also the three new meanings left by Wang Xianggong!"
The drums sounded at the third hour, and in the rain.
Zhang Shangying stroked his hand and said, "Grandpa Zhang, I would rather be able to break it, even if I die, I will still be straight."
Zhang Dun waved his hand.
...
The next day.
In Funing Hall, officials from the three provinces visited the official home as usual.
Walking into the Funing Hall, Cai Que said to Zhang Dun: "The court system, the prince and the prince serve the sick together."
Zhang Dun said: "Right Prime Minister, the destiny of heaven cannot be changed, but it is inevitable that there will be a random guess."
"King Yong has this intention?"
Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "Why should I ask the Queen Mother if she has this intention?"
"After the official's illness, King Yong frequently went to and from the harem. In addition to worrying, the queen spent money to set up vegetarian food in various Buddhist temples in the capital, and opened the walls and said, "The Crown Prince Prays."
"Do you think the queen is worried?"
Zhang Dun said to Cai Que: "Right Prime Minister, you must not retreat again."
Cai Quemoran.
The official family is the same as before, and the disease is getting better.
Later, the ministers greeted Empress Gao, who was behind the curtain.
Cai Que said to Empress Dowager Gao: "I heard that Gao Zunyu, the commander of Huanqing Road, was defeated by Lingwu in the previous period, but he was the general's son."
Empress Dowager Gao from the curtain said, "Zun Yu lost hundreds of thousands of troops. Your Majesty was shocked by this and became sick. How could I bear to forget Your Majesty in my own flesh and blood?"
Seeing that Empress Dowager Gao refused to know the bad intentions, Cai Que took the initiative to show kindness to the Empress Dowager and repair the relationship, but the Empress Dowager did not accept it.
"I am afraid." Cai Que had to sweep through the bricks when he was lying on the ground.
Zhang Dun looked and sneered. He knew that Cai was going to show kindness to the Empress Dowager, but he didn't expect to use Gao Zunyu as a bargaining chip.
Empress Dowager Gao didn't appreciate his affection at all.
Empress Dowager Gao said, "I heard the rumors in the market and said that Your Majesty is not my biological child. Can you tell me where this statement comes from?"
Such rumors will come in a while.
Empress Dowager Gao said this, obviously because she was thinking that some of the prime ministers had different feelings between them and their mother and son.
Cai Que finally knew the consequences of Wang Gui's absence. In the past, Wang Gui was there, and someone continued this matter. Now Empress Dowager Gao doesn't trust her and it's useless to say anything.
Cai Que could only say: "The Empress Dowager is a woman named Yao and Shun, so how can she pay attention to these words."
Empress Dowager Gao said: "I don't care about it, but why do some people pay attention to it?"
Empress Dowager Gao obviously did not want to let Cai Que go on this matter and insisted on Cai Que to provide an explanation.
Zhang Dun shook his head silently and said to Cai Que, let me see where you can retreat.
Cai Que said seriously: "The Empress Dowager, as we all know, the Empress Dowager married the Empress Dowager when he was hidden in the residence of the late emperor. He was only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and he gave birth to His Majesty the next year."
"At that time, the late emperor did not take a concubine, why did you say that Your Majesty was not the son of the Queen Mother?"
After hearing this, the ministers covered their faces, how could they explain this in detail?
Empress Dowager Gao coughed again after hearing this, and was really dissatisfied with Cai Que's words: "Cai Qing is familiar with the old things in the palace."
Cai Qi immediately said: "I am wrong."
Queen Mother Gao behind the curtain did not comment.
Cai Que glanced at Zhang Dun, and the meaning in his eyes was as you expected.
King Yong, who was serving the medicine on the side, said: "Your Majesty has been taking the medicine for three months. The military and national affairs asked the Empress Dowager to tell the ministers in front of the curtain, and wait for Your Majesty to recover."
Before, it was just a state affairs.
But the face of the curtain is to represent the emperor in the court.
The Queen Mother must further seize power.
What a girl, Yao and Shun. Zhang Dun thought to himself.
Just now, Zhang Maoze went into the curtain and whispered and counted.
"What a memorial for the vassal of the vassal? When I come in, I want to take a look."
The officials from the Ministry of Transport immediately entered the office to submit a memorial, and the eunuch handed over the memorial to the Queen Mother behind the curtain.
Empress Dowager Gao glanced at her several times and threw it to Zhang Maoze beside her and said, "I miss it!"
Zhang Maoze immediately came out of the curtain to spread his thoughts and said, "My husband Shang Ying died... I am so impatient to do so, and the sage is so arrogant. However, since the cold dew last year, my jade body has been in harmony, and I am so worried and worried. I heard that "The Queen leads the wife and silkworms in the northern suburbs" and now the East Palace is young, so it is advisable to follow the ancient system and let the Queen follow the power of the power to demonstrate Kun's virtue..."
The ministers below felt a ridiculous feeling when they heard this.
What is the queen's identity and the queen doctrine to deal with state affairs together?
You said that the empress and Concubine Zhu were almost the same as before, so how could the empress dowager and the empress attend the dynasty together?
But if you, Empress Dowager Gao, want to abolish the new law, Zhang Dun will not be allowed to do things.
The queen led the silkworms in the northern suburbs, and quoted them from the Zhou rituals. The queen took the wife to perform the silkworms in her own hands, and the emperor led the ministers to perform the spring farming ceremony. The two are of equal etiquette. It is also a good story for men to farm and women to weave.
As Zhang Dun said, you, Sima Guang, have Zizhi Tongjian, and I have the new meaning of the Three Classics.
The innovative interpretation of "women's position" in the "Book of Zhou" was specially marked, providing a legal basis for the queen to participate in politics.
"What a 'imitate the ancient system'!" Empress Dowager Gao, who was determined to restore his ancestors, finally understood what it means to shoot himself in the foot.
Empress Dowager Gao's eyes swept over the ministers behind the curtain. This was not an isolated memorial. There must be a minister behind Zhang Shangying. Who is it?
Empress Dowager Gao wants to capture this person.
But when Zhang Dun was purging his robe, he took it out and said, "The Empress Dowager clearly understands, Zhang Shangying's proposal is actually a plan for the country. In the past, Zhenzong disobeyed the feelings of Empress Liu Zhang Xian... It was for the two saints to come to the court!"
Zhang Dun didn't hide it and fought back in court.
"I have read Wang Jinggong's "New Issue of Zhou Guan" that silkworm affairs are the match of the emperor's own farming. Now Your Majesty's dragon body is not safe, which is in line with the principle of the yin and yang of heaven and earth. "
Empress Dowager Gao nodded slowly behind the curtain and said, "Zhang Qing is familiar with the meaning of Jing Gong."
"When this dynasty governs the world with filial piety, where is this filial piety?"
The priests were shocked, and the Empress Dowager was also sharp in counterattack.
"Is the two saints a filial piety in the court?"
"Zhang Dun! Do you think Laozi is like Lu Wu? Looking at Laozi and not reading "The Book of Zhou"? This memorial is written in a literary way, but it is necessary to break up the ethics of the Tian family! When you dare to let the queen sit together with Laozi today, you will dare to let the crown princess sit together with the queen tomorrow!"
After a long time, Empress Dowager Gao was a tough person, and the first time the priests saw him, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were on par, and their ethics became chaotic.
"Tell Zhang Shangying that since he was familiar with the "Book of Zhou", he gave him three acres of silkworm room! He asked him to take his wives and concubines to work as a woman in the northern suburbs every day."
After saying that, Empress Dowager Gao left, leaving behind a group of priests looking at each other.
Zhang Yu was watching, and Li Qingchen shook his head.
Lu Gongzhu and Zhang Zhi left the hall together. Lu Gongzhu reminded his son-in-law: "I heard for a long time that the Empress Dowager is strong-willed, you know now."
Zhang Zhi said: "Cai Chizheng, Zhang Zihou is also a smart person, what can I do..."
Lu Gong said, "It's not that they are not smart, but that you have to compete with the people on the imperial throne. If you don't have high scores in the Taoist practice, you won't be able to achieve it."
Zhang Zhi said: "No wonder Your Majesty wants to call my third uncle back to the court."
When Mr. Lu heard this, he sighed: "Before entering the capital, I was dissatisfied with the new law everywhere. I have watched your third uncle do things over the years, and then won a great victory at Pingxia City, which has really improved."
"So I didn't refute it in the palace just now. I don't agree with Sima Jun's desire to change the new method."
"I and I have a letter to you. Even if the new law has its disadvantages, it cannot be removed too quickly. But after gaining the public opinion, I will do it in detail. But I say, I am the poison of Anshi's evil saying."
There were also moderates and radicals in this old party.
Sima Guang was undoubtedly a radical faction, and he wanted the new law to abolish it, while Lu Gongzhe advocated reconciliation.
Zhang Zhi said: "Why did Lao Taishan say this? You have told me before that the right way to choose a new law that facilitates the people and benefits the country."
"The world will rely on you, Lao Taishan, in the future."
This is also the reason why Zhang Zhi took the initiative to move closer to Lu Gongye. In today's world, only Lu Gongye can protect some new laws, rather than completely abolish them like Sima Guang.
"It's difficult." Mr. Lu looked solemn.
The two walked slowly, but heard laughter coming from behind.
The two of them looked back and saw Zhang Dun laughing with his hands behind his back.
