Chapter 779 The cruel official returns to Beijing(1/2)
"Those who are brilliant and pure, and those who are consolidating virtue and without burden are the way of heaven... Your Majesty upholds one virtue, and faces all directions, and livelihoods, all of them are immersed in virtue... The ministers are recorded but do not advise, and the ministers are afraid of crimes but do not speak... Who is the only one who dares to be crazy and blind... I am so dedicated to my courage and affection..."
The Empress Dowager looked at the memorial in her hand and her face turned ashen.
"The prince-consort, it's so unbearable!" She put down her memorial and asked Zhao Xu: "Why don't the official family retire?"
Zhao Xu lowered his head and replied, "The prince-consort just made some minor mistakes!"
"Men Sun has issued an edict to give money and silk and his son-in-law, and imitate his Chinese writing to be ashamed of his heart!"
"I believe that the prince consort will definitely change his past!"
"Small mistake?" The Empress Dowager said coldly: "The Censors are all here to deduct the quota. Is this still a small mistake?"
She was dissatisfied with Zhang Dunli.
He is not a descendant of a military minister, nor is he a descendant of a minister.
It was just the son of a small official, and he chose Princess Shang because the late emperor insisted on choosing him.
It was only over the years that Princess Shoukang had a harmonious relationship with her, and that Zhang Dunli's calligraphy and painting were famous, that the Empress Dowager barely recognized it.
But now Zhang Dunli has given her a big one!
The censor collectively deducts the qualifiers!
This is definitely going to be in the history of the country, and may even become a story and system of the future.
How could the Empress Dowager, who looked at her face incredibly important, ruin her reputation because of Zhang Dunli?
So, her attitude was extremely harsh: "The Censors are right..."
"In the rule of the emperor, we must first correct the customs. If we want to correct the customs, the heavenly family should set an example in the world!"
"The official family did not punish the prince-consort, but instead gave him money..."
"If the people in the world know, how should they view the official family?"
Zhao Xu's attitude towards the Empress Dowager was not surprised.
Because she is such a person.
It can even be said that Zhao Xu's response was based on the nature of the Empress Dowager and deliberately did it.
In Zhao Xu's previous life, this Empress Dowager was even forgiven by Wang Shu, who tortured his own daughter.
Not only forgive me, but also give Wang Sheng a title!
As for the reason?
Wang Shi has a good reputation among the scholars and officials!
In order to win the praises of the scholars and officials, she promoted Wang Shu without hesitation.
Not only is she indifferent to her daughter, but even Zhao Xu, the grandson, is just a tool she uses to win praise from the scholars.
Let’s not mention the matter about Miying Pavilion.
Just talking about one thing - Zhao Xu's personal food, clothing and expenses were extremely embarrassing in his previous life until he took power.
There are no colored objects in the Funing Hall.
Most of the utensils are porcelain, and they are the cheapest porcelain.
In winter, the warm room is often not warm, and the clothes you wear are not warm enough.
Always trembling with coldness.
One of the things that Zhao Xu remembers the most deeply about the Yuanyou era was that in the summer of a certain year, he and Zhao Ji hid in the curtain of the Funing Hall, sharing the snacks Zhao Ji brought to him.
The dignified emperor actually needs brothers to bring food to him!
This is also true, although Zhao Xu disliked him, he neglected Zhao Ji.
But the treatment he deserves has never been short.
And all of this is just because the Empress Dowager wants to save face and likes to be praised.
And her personality shortcomings have naturally been discovered and exploited.
Not only the magistrate, but even the inmates around her took advantage of her preference and kept taking over power.
A typical example is Chen Yan, who has been killed by a stick.
In Zhao Xu's previous life, this big Diao Dang who walked out of Zhao Hao was the inner minister of the Yuanyou era.
Until Zhao Xu launched a palace coup, he still controlled the inside and outside of Qingshou Palace. He once had the plan to support Zhao Hao, but he did not dare to implement it.
It is precisely because he knows the nature of the Empress Dowager that Zhao Xu knows that as long as she comes, Zhang Dunli will lose his skin even if he doesn't die this time.
but……
What Zhao Xu wanted was not just to make Zhang Dunli suffer.
But that's the case, there's no need to be so troublesome.
Therefore, Zhao Xu raised his head slightly and said to the Empress Dowager: "The Grand Mother... the Prince Consort is just a small mistake in money..."
"The censors are making big fuss!"
Seeing that Zhao Xu was still protecting Zhang Dunli, the Empress Dowager was both happy and angry.
What is happy is that the child is thinking about family affection, and what is angry is that Zhang Dunli is a sinless person!
She picked up a stamp and handed it to Zhao Xu: "Prince, let's take a look!"
"What good things did the prince consort do outside?"
Zhao Xu took it, glanced and looked up.
It is Lu Tao's bulletin chapter.
Lu Tao was a member of the Shu Party, and the Shu Party was influenced by Su Shi and had a generally heroic and unruly style.
To put it in the low emotional intelligence, it means that you always like to make big news!
The words are terrifying and I like to make up for my brain.
This was the case last time Xianyu came.
This time, Lu Tao is still the same.
Zhao Xu just read the content of the posting, and his instinct as an emperor had already awakened.
Because, Lu Tao introduced on the post-yellow post-I have recently seen the prince consort interact with the three religions and other ranks of religions... There are monks, Taoists and Kaifeng Palace officials entering and leaving the princess' residence...
Looking at the specific content of the chapter, Lu Tao first mentioned the matters in which kings of all dynasties indulged their relatives and eventually led to disaster.
Then he changed his subject and fired violently at Zhang Dunli.
It is said that he had made friends with monks and Taoists, and there may be a possibility of creating prophecies in private.
At the same time, his interactions with the wing officials, and his interactions with the wing officials are even more ill-intentioned!
The evidence is that other relatives dare not interact with the officials.
And Zhang Dunli dares!
This fact alone proves that the prince consort may have a ulterior motive!
Therefore, even in order to prevent problems from happening, we must strike hard!
Otherwise, there will be disaster in the future of the Song Dynasty.
After reading it, Zhao Xu deeply agreed with Lu Tao's words, on the surface, he still looked for excuses to expel Zhang Dunli: "The princess, the prince consort and the princess have always been sincere in worshiping Buddha... It is understandable to deal with monks!"
"As for Taoist..."
"The prince consort loves painting, and everyone knows it. Taoism has been good at painting since ancient times... The prince consort interacts with him, perhaps just to discuss painting skills!"
"The wing official is even more ridiculous!"
"The prince-in-law lives in Yongningfang, so he naturally needs to get close to the official in the wing!"
But the more he helped Zhang Dunli speak, the more determined the Empress Dowager's attitude towards this matter was.
She sighed and said to Zhao Xu: "Even if what the official said is in line with the facts!"
"But people in the world won't think so!"
"I thought that the official should convene the Dazong Zheng, Sipu King, and Dali Temple to discuss this matter together!"
"What do the Queen Mother think?" The Queen Mother turned her head and looked at the Queen Mother Xiang who was sitting beside her.
Empress Dowager Xiang was also quite admired when she looked at her aunt's righteous expression.
However, her temperament is completely different from that of the Empress Dowager.
She is a person who likes and is mixed.
Queen Mother Xiang thought for a while and replied, "It is naturally good for the Empress to be unfavorable!"
"But, the bride thinks that family scandals should not be made public!"
"It's better not to disturb Da Zongzheng and Dali Temple in this matter..."
The Empress Dowager listened and pondered.
In fact, for her, how to deal with this matter is not important at all!
The important thing is that she wants to pick herself out of this matter.
We cannot let the people of the world, especially the scholars and officials in the world, think that she, the Empress Dowager, favors her son-in-law!
She even compared her to Zhang Xianmingsu - more than two years ago, when the curtain was originally.
She was also complacent because the court officials compared her to Zhang Xianmingsu.
To be continued...
