In the Song Dynasty, there was no law or order.

Chapter 49: Granting Zhao Jun the same status as a Jinshi

Zhao Jun started to tell jokes about the Song Dynasty because he was too scared at that time. He had just experienced a mudslide and was blind. He was in an unfamiliar environment, so he thought that the village chief might not like the Song Dynasty, so he told a joke to ease his fear.

He never expected that the old village chief was a fan of Zhao Guangyi. At that time, he thought that he was flattering the horse. However, unexpectedly, even so, the old village chief still wanted him to tell more jokes about the Song Dynasty.

He asked twice afterwards, otherwise he would not tell any more, but the other party still insisted on telling.

Then Zhao Jun was not polite.

Zhao Jun was very unhappy with the old Zhao family. Jin, Song and Qing were one of the three dynasties he hated the most. He didn't get the chance to tell some jokes about the Jin and Qing dynasties, so telling some jokes about the Song Dynasty would be good.

But because he was a fan of the donkey cart god of war, he could only take advantage of the old village chief's absence a few days ago to tell and amuse everyone.

Today the old village chief is back, so of course he can't talk about donkey carts.

Then let's talk about Mount Tai.

Mount Tai and Luoshui are two pairs of brothers in distress. One was discredited by Sima Yi, and the other was lowered by Emperor Zhenzong Zhao Heng of Song Dynasty.

Others who performed Fengshan at Mount Tai were all top-notch emperors ranked in the top ten of the history, such as Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of Han, and Emperor Guangwu. The slightly inferior Li Zhi and Li Longji were also considered first-class and could be ranked in the top 20.

What the hell is Emperor Zhenzong Zhao Huan of Song Dynasty?

He won the battle and then signed a humiliating treaty. How dare he perform Fengshan?

Although from an objective and neutral point of view, the Alliance of Tanyuan helped the Song Dynasty to obtain peace with the Liao Kingdom for about a hundred years, and objectively helped the Song Dynasty to recuperate and stabilize the internal situation.

But in essence, this is still a clause that humiliates the country. The sentence in the treaty that "Song Dynasty left silver and silk to Liao Dynasty every year" is not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

All the other emperors established a powerful empire and defeated foreign enemies, so they had the nerve to go to Mount Tai.

Song Zhenzong was really a bit shameless.

More importantly, if he was a wise ruler, even if he signed this treaty, as long as he could govern the world better and achieve the level of peace and prosperity, he would have reluctantly signed it.

But his so-called "Xianping Reign" did not last long. In the middle and late periods, he was obsessed with cultivating immortals, devoted himself to enshrining and worshipping, whitewashing the peace, building palaces and temples, and wasting money and labor, so that the savings in the early period were squandered. By his later years, "the savings in the country were almost empty."

Although Li Longji was also ugly in his later years, he was at least glorious in his early years. He beat Tubo externally and created the Kaiyuan Prosperity internally. He also set up the Mohe Dudu Fu, the Shiwei Dudu Fu, the Heishui Dudu Fu, and the Bohai Dudu Fu. For the first time in Chinese history, the entire territory of the three northeastern provinces was incorporated into the Chinese territory, and he was not forced to sign a humiliating treaty at his doorstep.

That's why Zhao Jun told the joke about Zhao Heng's Fengshan ceremony. The original story was about the affair between Lady Liu and Commandant Zhang. He also adapted it. First, he thought the original story was too vulgar and it was not good to tell it to an old man. Second, he thought this adaptation was more ironic.

The old village chief couldn't be a fan of Zhao Heng.

That would be too outrageous.

However, what he didn't expect at this time was that Yan Shu was already terrified because Zhao Zhen had turned away angrily.

He could only say "I'll see you tomorrow" before leaving, and then he hurriedly ran out with Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen walked very fast and soon ran to the Guanjia Hall. He rushed inside and picked up a stool. Yan Shu thought he was really going to beat Zhao Jun, so he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, calm down, Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Calm down?"

Zhao Zhen laughed angrily, "He has already started to scold my father, and you still want me to calm down?"

"Your Majesty, Zhao Jun is only looking at us from the perspective of future generations. He doesn't understand the inside story, so he is naturally biased."

Yan Shu said tactfully, "And this is not an excessive scolding, just a little sarcasm. But he didn't know that Zhenzong signed How much benefit the alliance has brought to us, this is his short-sightedness. "

"Humph!"

Zhao Zhen snorted coldly and reluctantly put down the chair in his hand. He actually wanted to smash the stones outside to vent his anger, but now that Yan Shu had persuaded him, he went with the flow and pretended to hit Zhao Jun who was persuaded by Yan Shu, and said angrily: "This guy is too much, let him stop talking in the future."

He wanted to listen to the jokes of the Song Dynasty before, and wanted to understand some of the things that happened later through the jokes of the Song Dynasty. In addition, he also wanted to know what kind of evaluation of their Song Dynasty by future generations.

As a result, Zhao Jun went too far.

When Zhao Jun talked about Zhao Guangyi, he actually didn't have any thoughts.

Because when Zhao Guangyi died, he was still thirteen years away from being born, and he had never seen his grandfather, so naturally there was no deep affection.

So he said it, Zhao Zhen could barely bear it.

But when Zhao Heng died, Zhao Zhen was already thirteen years old. Zhao Heng had only one son, so he naturally doted on him very much, so there was still a relatively happy time between the father and son.

Now Zhao Jun turned his gun around and started talking about his father, Song Zhenzong, which naturally made Zhao Zhen very angry.

Even if Zhao Jun just made a slight sarcasm, it would not work.

After all, he was his biological father.

Yan Shu heard what Zhao Zhen said and smiled bitterly: "I asked him to continue talking before. He asked me several times whether he wanted to continue talking. I insisted on talking. Now I asked him not to talk. Isn't it going back on his word? Your Majesty, please be patient for a while."

"Humph."

Zhao Zhen snorted again and turned his head away without looking at him.

Yan Shu pulled his sleeves and walked up to him as if coaxing a child and continued: "Guan, think about it. After Zhao Jun's eyes recover, he learns that Guan can tolerate such rebellious jokes. How can he?" Don’t you want to be grateful to the official family? Doesn’t this prove the official’s generosity and prove that he is worthy of the title of “the most benevolent gentleman in the ages”?

The most benevolent king of all time?

Zhao Zhen's ears twitched. When he heard this adjective, the cold expression on his face softened a little. He relaxed and said, "Forget it, let him continue talking nonsense. After his eyes recover, hum Hum, I will make him look good."

As he spoke, he hummed twice more to express his determination to say this. Apparently, he was already thinking that when Zhao Jun's eyes healed, he would see how he could hit him.

Yan Shu smiled and said, "This is the magnanimity of an official!"

"alright."

Zhao Zhen pushed Yan Shu away and scolded with a smile: "You old man, stop saying good things for him. You just said that Zhao Jun's eyes are about to recover. It won't be long before he can see. Think about what he will do after he sees it." Right? You can’t stay in the palace forever, it’s outrageous.”

After all, the palace is Zhao Zhen's residence, and even the prime ministers are not allowed to enter the harem. Now Zhao Jun not only lives here, but also allows the prime ministers to come here every day, which is really inappropriate.

Yan Shu said: "Although Zhao Jun hates the Song Dynasty, he is of the Zhao family's blood after all, and he will not watch the Song Dynasty die helplessly. After his eyes recover, he will definitely treat your majesty, the ancestor, with respect and respect. He arranged for a person from Bianliang to have the status of a person. If his parents are dead, he can take the imperial examination and become an official. This is also what Lu Xiang and others want. "

"Um."

Zhao Zhen put his hands behind his back and walked slowly forward in the imperial garden of the back garden. He nodded and said, "Zhao Jun said that later generations no longer respect Confucianism and do not read the scriptures. Come to think of it, I am afraid that I will not even be able to memorize the Analects of Confucius. Can he pass the imperial examination?"

"Forehead"

Yan Shu followed him, thought for a while and said: "Others who took the imperial examination have been familiar with scriptures since childhood. He is already in his twenties this year, and it is too late to study again. How about the government giving him a person with the same background as a Jinshi?" "

"Is it necessary to take the imperial examination to become an official?"

"What Mr. Lu and the others mean is that Zhao Jun is too young. It is not good to have a high position rashly. He still has to work hard from scratch."

"Well, that makes sense, but..."

"But what?"

"hehe."

Zhao Zhen turned his head and looked at Yan Shu, pointed at his face, and laughed at himself: "But Zhao Jun scolded me to the point where my body was almost completely bruised. I also want to give him the same birthplace as a Jinshi and the same uncle. How come I really feel that Does it mean you’re a bit mean-spirited?”

"This is also an expedient measure, a stopgap measure."

Yan Shu smiled awkwardly.

You must know that the main method of entering an official position in the Song Dynasty was the imperial examination, but there were exceptions, and that was Men Yin and Ci Tong who were born as Jinshi.

Born in Tong Jinshi, he actually did poorly in the exam. It doesn't mean he couldn't pass the exam, but he just passed the exam and was ranked at the bottom, similar to Sun Shan.

The origin of "Gitong Jinshi" is different, and it is a special name. It means that a scholar failed to pass the Jinshi exam many times. The emperor thought that he was pitiful or really talented, so he gave him this status.

Therefore, in the Song Dynasty, sometimes there would be five Jia. The first Jia granted Jinshi and the rank of Wenlin Lang; the second Jia granted Jinshi and the title of Jinglang; the third Jia was a Jinshi, and the fourth Jia was a Jinshi. The fifth Jia was a Jinshi.

People who were given the same background as a Jinshi not only had a low position when they first entered the job, but were also more likely to be discriminated against. Zeng Guofan lost his temper because he was "like a wife, and he is a Jinshi".

But even so, in ancient feudal society, it was a gift from the imperial power. For ordinary scholars, it was a great honor, enough to honor the ancestors.

Now Zhao Zhen is insulted by Zhao Jun every day. After scolding him, he scolds his grandfather, and after scolding his grandfather, he scolds his father. Then, after Zhao Jun's eyes recover, he still has to go to the pole to grant others the status of Jinshi. It is really a bit self-indulgent. a feeling of.

Zhao Zhen himself felt very wronged.

But as Yan Shu said, there is no way to make it expedient.

After all, Zhao Jun's eyes will recover soon.

Next to the back garden are the Kunning Hall, Renming Hall, Ciyuan Hall and other palaces where the empresses and concubines of the Song Dynasty live. They are very close to Zhao Zhen's wives. It is indeed a bit outrageous to leave a man here.

And because of Zhao Jun's incident, Zhao Zhen has ordered the Houyuan to be closed and no one is allowed to enter or exit. The original guards of the Houyuan have been stationed there for a long time, and the old women and children who came in have also lived here for a long time. The queens and concubines cannot enter. Come.

In addition, the Imperial Palace of the Song Dynasty is actually not big. The main place for the concubines to play is in the back garden. Now that the back garden is closed, they have no place to play. These days, they often come to Zhao Zhen to act coquettishly and ask for relief, which gives Zhao Zhen a headache.

So Zhao Jun still has to move out of the palace in the future.

However, Zhao Zhen quickly thought of another question, frowned and said: "If Zhao Jun leaves the palace, what will happen to his safety in the future? The Song Dynasty can live without me, but now it cannot live without him."

Yan Shu thought for a while, then raised his hands and said, "How about sending the Imperial City Secretary to accompany him all the time, firstly to protect his safety, and secondly, of course."

"hehe."

Zhao Zhen laughed and walked towards the harem in the distance.

I have been abstinent for more than a month recently. I haven't seen my Master Miao and Zhang Meiren for a long time. I miss them so much.

I personally think that the recent chapters are more important, because Zhao Zhen is testing whether the protagonist's method can work. If it works, it means that the protagonist is really capable, which will provide a basis for the protagonist to be lawless in the future. Maybe I think that such foreshadowing is necessary to give the protagonist something to rely on, otherwise it is just empty talk. The emperor and ministers of the Song Dynasty are not fools. It is impossible for them to believe in the keyboard warriors' advice on the country. Some people may not like such foreshadowing, but it doesn't matter. It's basically time for the protagonist's eyes to recover. Just wait patiently for a few days, it will be quick.
