A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty
Chapter 246: The Emperor Beats the Drum to Save the Moon
Zhao Zhen is not a conservative, otherwise Fan Zhongyan's Qingli New Deal would not have had a beginning.
Fan Zhongyan slashed at the powerful and official class, and finally defeated Maicheng.
Although the Qingli New Deal failed, it shocked those with vested interests.
Those people were all staring at Chaozhong and Zhao Zhen.
The victims of the disaster are first organized into the Xiang army. This is an old rule and the ancestral method.
Zhao Zhen changed it, which triggered some speculation and vigilance.
The so-called old rules are all kinds of hidden rules and various ancestral laws.
Most of Lao Zhao's ancestral methods are friendly to officials, so...
The atmosphere was a little stagnant, and Fu Bi said: "Your Majesty, the situation outside is turbulent. I thought... we should slow down."
The iron backbone and revolutionary generals of the past are now disheartened.
Zhao Zhen shook his head slightly and said: "Those people are too proud. If I agree, I will bow my head. I am not afraid of bowing my head, but I am afraid that my order will change tomorrow!"
Zeng Gongliang said: "Your Majesty, after the news spreads to various places, I am afraid it will cause some disputes and make everyone uneasy. This is not a blessing for the Song Dynasty!"
These words are a bit cryptic, but they are hinting to Zhao Zhen that he should be careful about the party strife caused by this.
If the emperor does not back down, his ministers will naturally take sides.
You say the emperor did the right thing, and I say he did the wrong thing. If the two sides quarrel, it will be protracted.
Zhao Zhen said with a straight face: "I...all the ministers will step back."
The officials were unhappy, and the prime ministers and ministers exchanged glances, knowing what was going on.
This matter must be slowed down, don't force the officials to step down.
Xiao Qing stood there loading wood. When he saw Shen An in a daze, he said, "That's the ancestral method you've learned. Now it's gone. Why don't you... go out and talk about it, don't you fight for it?"
Shen An, who was in a daze, nodded and said, "Yes!"
Then he went out.
Xiao Qing covered her mouth and lowered her head, thinking that this idiot was actually going to argue.
That's God's will, you idiot!
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."
As soon as Zhao Zhen stood up, he glanced at Shen An with a somewhat depressed look and said, "This matter is beyond your control."
He called Shen An here just to let the young man experience such a battle.
Xiao Qing was also just called here. According to Zhao Zhen's plan, they each represented a family to come to the theater.
But Shen An is now ready to enter the drama.
This boy... is really giving me a headache!
Fu Bi stood still with concern and said: "This matter affects the whole body and cannot be ignored. Someone in the Imperial College said that you expelled students at will. You should go and find out first."
This was a good intention to get rid of him.
But Shen An said seriously: "Your Majesty, the moon is not being eaten, lunar eclipse is just a small event, it has happened many times since ancient times..."
"But everything is a warning to the emperor!"
Shen An heard a familiar voice, Han Qi, Teacher Han, are you going to give me an astronomy class?
Shen An glanced at him with disdain and said: "Throughout the ages, lunar eclipse refers to the harem and ministers. Solar eclipse refers to the emperor. I said Mr. Han, where did you read this book?"
The sun is the emperor, the moon is the women in the harem, and the ministers are also attributed to the moon.
Han Qi said angrily: "How come I don't know, it's just..."
It was just that they had to give the officials face, and the queen did nothing wrong in the palace. Those people couldn't find an attack point, and they were dissatisfied with the officials for using ancestral methods, so they broke out.
Fu Bi interrupted their argument with a dry cough and said, "Your Majesty, how about... let's play a drum."
puff!
Shen An almost spat out blood and looked at Fu Bi in disbelief.
You actually let the officials play the drum?
Fu Bi said sadly: "I should have beaten the drum at that time. Although it is a little late now, it is not too late to make up for it!"
Nowadays, the moon represents the harem, ministers and princes. A lunar eclipse means that there is something wrong with these three groups, mostly due to incompetence.
The queen made no mistake, so don't beep.
Minister...it is right for us to fulfill our duties faithfully.
The princes... Where did the princes of the Song Dynasty come from?
The so-called vassals are all fake, where did the princes come from?
So the emperor had to take the blame for these three groups.
Zhao Zhen, the scapegoat, nodded with a serious face, and Fu Bi shouted: "Prepare the drum! Your Majesty is going to play the drum! Send the message!"
Someone outside responded, and Shen An said with a confused face: "Your Majesty, the so-called lunar eclipse is just a common thing, you are not to blame! It has nothing to do with any ancestral method, and those people are The drunkard's intention is not to drink..."
Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "Let's talk after we play the drums."
Shen An came back with a constipated look on his face, while Xiao Qing was holding back laughter and his body was trembling.
"What does drumming mean?"
Shen An suddenly asked.
"You actually don't understand something?"
Xiao Qing immediately started to sneer, looked at him with disdain, and said: "It is said in Zhou Li that if you save the sun and the moon, you will order the king to drum."
Shen An was stunned.
When a solar eclipse or a lunar eclipse occurs, the sun and moon need the emperor to play drums to save them!
Zhao Zhen changed into a grand dress, holding a drumstick in his hand, and a big drum in front of him.
Zeng Gongliang asked cautiously: "That... rich prime minister, do you want to check the etiquette?"
The emperor must follow rules when doing things!
It’s not enough to just knock it out!
Fu Bi shook his head and said, "What time has it been? I just knocked it a few times to show the people outside."
The tengu vomited out the moon, and playing drums at this time was just to make the people believe that the emperor was standing with everyone.
Zhao Zhen raised his hand, his wide sleeves retreating to his elbows. He glanced at the sky and waved the drumstick in frustration.
"Boom!"
He waved the drumstick vigorously and beat the big drum time and time again.
Shen An saw that the servants beside him all looked solemn, even a little in awe.
This is a legend passed down many years ago.
The sun and moon were about to disappear, and the emperor came to the rescue by playing drums.
"Boom!"
Queen Cao heard the drums. She walked out of the palace, squinted her eyes slightly, looked ahead and asked, "Why is this?"
Someone came to inquire about the news and said, "Sage, the officials are playing drums to drive away the Tengu."
Queen Cao shook her head, her brows becoming more heroic, "Who is supporting the official family?"
At this time, those who stand beside the emperor are loyal ministers.
Ren Shouzhong took a cautious look at her face and said, "Sage, the prime ministers and assistants are all on the official side."
Empress Cao stretched out her right hand, crossed her eyebrows with her white fingers, and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Ren Shouzhong was stunned, how could he know so much.
But you have to answer the master's questions. If there is an answer, you have to answer it. If there is no answer, you have to think of the answer.
He bent down slightly and said with a smile: "Sage, officials are kind... I think those ministers naturally know the way of a monarch and his ministers."
Empress Cao turned around, with a cold look in her eyes, and said, "Only when the monarch and his ministers are of one mind will the Song Dynasty be blessed."
…
Even after leaving the palace, Shen An could still recall the scene of Zhao Zhen playing drums.
The old emperor waved the drumstick feebly, and the sound of the drum gradually became weaker and weaker.
The prime ministers and ministers all felt as if they had been granted amnesty, and they all praised the officials for their kindness. The Song Dynasty would definitely be prosperous.
This is a play.
The king and his ministers all acted pretty well, at least the people believed it.
"The official actually beat the drum himself to drive away the tengu?"
"Yes! Someone in the palace said it before."
"The officials are kind!"
"..."
There was cheering outside.
"What did you think of when you saw this?"
Bao Zheng seemed to like seeing this scene.
The sun was very bright, so Shen An quickly pulled him to the edge.
"What I think of is... the people are ignorant and need someone to take the lead."
Bao Zheng nodded, touched his forehead and said, "I don't even sweat in the sun, so it's obvious that I'm going to die."
Shen An glanced at him and said, "If you sweat a lot, you have a fast metabolism."
Lao Bao didn't ask why he had a fast metabolism. He said leisurely: "Are you talking nonsense again?"
"No!"
Shen An felt that he was wronged, and then the back of his head hurt, and he heard Bao Zheng shout: "Why is a lunar eclipse a trivial matter? Nonsense!"
Shen An covered her head, feeling that she was really more unjust than Dou E.
"A lunar eclipse is a small thing."
Shen An feels that people in this era are too stubborn. No matter how smart they are, they refuse to turn around in many aspects.
What an old-fashioned person!
"A lunar eclipse is when the moon is blocked, temporarily blocked, and there is no Tengu!"
Shen An felt that his science popularization work was very difficult, but Bao Zheng coughed dryly and reminded him to be careful.
It's under the eaves here, and although it's hot, it can provide some shade.
The men on both sides looked at him unkindly.
"Drinking too much, this kid drank too much."
Bao Zheng slapped him away, and Shen An immediately pretended to be drunk and said, "Who said that, I...I can still drink!"
The two ran away in despair, and someone behind them said angrily: "That's a tengu, how dare you speak rudely!"
All the way to Shen's house, when Bao Zheng saw Guo Guo, all his anger immediately dissipated, and his eyes turned into lines with laughter.
"Mr. Bao, are you good, Bao Shou?"
"good!"
"Bao Gong, are you good?"
"..."
"good!"
Lao Bao was very good, but in an instant he became vicious.
"This matter has nothing to do with the lunar eclipse, do you understand?"
Well!
Shen An said with a confused look: "You all know it doesn't matter!"
Bao Zheng said with a face full of hatred: "Of course I know, what nonsense lunar and solar eclipses are just things used to achieve the goal. Tengu... Just ask any prime minister if there is a Tengu , if anyone dares to say that there is, just slap him."
Damn it!
Shen An was stunned by these words.
It turns out everyone knows it!
It turns out that no one took the so-called eclipse of the sun and moon seriously, at least not the prime ministers.
But this is a good time to achieve some small goals.
So everyone is pretending.
Look! The tengu came out to eat the moon!
Bao Zheng suddenly realized when he saw him, UU read www. uukanshu.net then said happily: "Do you understand?"
Shen An nodded: "I understand."
"Talk about it."
Tell me what you think.
Bao Zheng is becoming more and more like a teacher. It would be more true if he didn't often smile at Guo Guo who was playing with toys next to him.
Shen An muttered: "They are not fools!"
Bao Zheng nodded and said: "Zaifu has never been a fool. Han Qi is an exception. That person is domineering and it will be very troublesome to be his superior."
"Don't get involved in this matter, stay away!"
These are what Bao Zheng said before leaving.
…
The Chinese New Year is coming soon. It’s fun for everyone to get together as a family, but it’s hard to do jazz code. If you have a monthly ticket, support it.
