The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

At the end of the 18th century, after a brief visit to China, British Minister Macalney said: "The Chinese have no religion. If there is any, they are officials." It can be said that it clearly pointed out the social disadvantages at that time.

, but he only knows one thing but not the other. 'official culture' can be said to be part of Chinese tradition, and has been with the development of history for thousands of years.

People with rich knowledge and excellent talents were more likely to gain power than ordinary people in the feudal era. Having power, in addition to realizing the grand ideal of managing the world and benefiting the people, also means a harvest of wealth and interests, which has made scholars of all generations of politics

All have a strong interest in being an official. In addition to studying to seek fame and fortune, and becoming an official with excellent academic performance, some people also do everything they can to be an official. Lu Xun once had a profound evaluation of this, "The Chinese are addicted to officials."

It is really deep. Han Dynasty values ​​filial piety and integrity, and there are buried children and carved wood, Song Dynasty values ​​Neo-Confucianism, and there are high hats and broken boots...'In short: the soul is just an official - performing official power, posing official accent, and speaking official speech.

The Song Dynasty was the first dynasty in my country's history to be dominated by literati. Since emperors of all dynasties have deliberately promoted literary affairs and selected officials from Confucian scholars, the cultural atmosphere in the officialdom is very strong, and many officials are also famous scholars and are very rich. Famous poets, but these elegant and elegant people who are well-read in poetry and books, have failed to eliminate the chronic disease of flattery in officialdom throughout the ages, and this kind of trend has increased.

After the Yuanyou of Song Zhezong, the habit of running around the officialdom reached an unparalleled level. Cai Jingdong made a comeback with Tong Guan as the background; Wang Fu was the prime minister and Liang Shi became the backstage; Wang Anzhong wrote a poem to praise Liang Shicheng. "Shicheng read it.

He was very happy, "I recommended it to the emperor, and within a few years, I climbed the forbidden forest and joined the government"; Li Bangyan rose to prominence because of pleasing eunuchs until he became the minister... and they were all the targets of officials' reunion.

When Cai Jing was in power, many officials entered his home, "All those who surrendered were Gao, Kui, Ji, and Qi as a shortage." Cai Jing refused to accept bribes when he opened the door. He was rich in the country, foreign treasures were still there.

What's even more funny is that the entire Song Dynasty, because of the competition, officials also invented many new official terms. "When you first support yourself, your heart will be full of your heart", which is called "to accept loyalty"; "when you are used,

First add constraints", which is called "receiving the record"; "When you leave the gate of a certain clan, you will turn to him when you are not satisfied", which is called "change"; "Yin is combined with it, and Yang is behind it.

To frame dissidents and make them unexpected" is called "tracing". In short, during the Zhao and Song dynasties, there were countless absurd words and deeds like this...

On the first day of the third year of Xuanhe, the imperial edict was issued that Xi Shi had made merits and was appointed as Cai Jingen, and his son; Zheng Juzhong was the young master; Yu Shen was the young master; Zhao Jie was the first master and the title of Taifu... For a moment, the court and the country were shocked.

Prince Yan once again became a popular figure in Beijing. This time, he was given a title to show that his holy grace was still there. Everyone speculated that he would have any position. Zhao Qi had a good foundation and was also known as "benevolence, filial piety, loyalty and righteousness".

The mansion performed, which made people feel that it was "good". Therefore, Prince Yan's mansion, which had been neglected for a long time, returned to lively again. He defected and asked for office in a constant stream...

On the fifth day of the lunar month, Zhao Qiong entered the palace to invite the Queen Mother, passed through the Daqing Hall with the Xixi, and went through the Henglang to Wende Hall, preparing to join the guards outside Donghua Gate to go home. Although the annual leave was on, the Secretariat and the Secretariat were

There are still people on duty in the province to handle emergency affairs.

"People, please inform me, the Southeast urgently reported!" Before Zhao Qi went out, he heard someone begging the imperial guards guarding the gate. After walking a few steps, he saw four or five exhausted soldiers outside the gate, with their lips chapped.

Blood seeped, eyes were deep and dusty, the horse's mane behind him suddenly rose, white foam hung on the corners of his mouth, and his tail was drooping, and blood was covered in under his hooves. He was panting with a drooping head, and he was shaking his breath half-dead.

As soon as Zhao Qi saw, he knew that it was obvious that the master had something urgent to do. He ran away and wasted his horse. Even if he had been recuperating for a while, it would be difficult to recover!

"Which yamen are you from?" asked the foreman's gatekeeper.

"A messenger under the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Transportation Department!" said the sergeant who delivered the letter.

"The King has an order, and no envoys from Jiangsu and Zhejiang are allowed to enter. Please come back!" The officer guarding the gate said coldly after hearing this.

"Several brothers, something big happened in the southeast, please bet on it!" The messenger of Jiangsu and Zhejiang begged while stuffing silver into the gatekeeper's hands.

"I'm really sorry, I'll let it go in the past, but now there are strict orders from above that people from the southeast are not allowed to enter Beijing. See how many people are working hard, please leave Beijing quickly, otherwise you will be caught by the military personnel.

I have to sue." The gatekeeper looked at Yinzi and sighed and sent him back.

"What's wrong? Is it a noisy?" Zhao Qi walked over and frowned and asked. He didn't even dare to ask for the money. It can be seen that Wang Fu blocked the news from the southeast and issued a strict order.

of.

"Prince Yan, there are a few messengers roaring. The villain will drive them away now!" The officer guarding the gate quickly said to him when he saw it was the prince.

"Prince Yan, save the people in the southeast!" The messenger suddenly knelt down and said, hearing Prince Yan as if he had seen a savior.

"Do you know me?" Zhao Qi looked at the people and asked.

"The Prince of Yan pacified Jiangnan two years ago, and the villain had seen him from afar in Hangzhou!" The messenger replied.

"What happened in the southeast? People who have been in the New Year still came to Beijing to deliver letters?" Zhao Qiong nodded and asked knowingly.

"Reported to the prince, the southeast was in chaos, and the people rebelled. Twenty-nine years ago, the rioters attacked Hangzhou and killed Chen Jian, the commander of the Liangzhe Road, Zhao Yue, the governor of the Lianwen Road, and Zhao Ting, the governor of the state, abandoned the city and left. Now the rioters are not only the only ones.

Capturing Hangzhou officials, and digging the ancestral tomb of Taishi Cai's family, exposing his bones!" The messenger hurriedly said, "Now Shisheng, Suzhou, Lu Xinger, Gui'an County, Huzhou, Zhu Yan, Lingshandong, Lanxi County, Wuzhou, Wubang, Chen Shisi, Fangyan Mountain, Yongkang County

Huo Chengfu, Chen Zuotong and others in Jinyun County, Chuzhou were in chaos. Lu Shinang, Xianju County, Taizhou, Qiu Rixin, Shan County, Yuezhou, Zheng Demon King, Quzhou, etc. also responded. The farmers in Hu, Chang, Xiu and other states also gathered their disciples.

The people attacked prefectures and counties, and the people were in chaos, facing each other for no less than one million, and all the six prefectures and fifty-two counties in the southeast were lost."

"Ah?! Why did such a big thing be dealt with?" Zhao Qiong said in shock.

"Your Majesty, the Southeast messenger reported three times a day and asked to send reinforcements, but there was no news. Hangzhou was lost. My elders sent young people to Beijing overnight, but when we arrived here, we would not let us in..." The messenger said repeatedly.

"Such big incident happened in the southeast, and there was no news in the court. It must have been blocked by you all. Don't you know how to die?" Zhao Qiong was furious and pointed at the soldiers guarding the gate and shouted.

"The prince calmed down. Without the orders from above, the villain had a few heads to stop the messenger entering Beijing. I also asked the prince to let the villain go!" Seeing Zhao Qi getting angry, the person guarding the door was frightened and knelt down and said.

"Give me a letter to me. I'll wait here, so I'll go and talk to them!" Zhao Qi snatched the letter bag of the messenger in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and turned around and was about to enter the palace, but was stopped by the gatekeeper. They also knew that

It is of great importance. If the emperor knows about this, even the King of Kings may not be able to hold back. So while they try their best to stop him, they report to the Secretary of the Central Committee and ask someone to deal with it.

"Get out of here, I have no time to argue with you at this moment. I will settle the score with you when I come back!" Zhao Qi suddenly pushed away the soldier in front of him and said angrily. Wuzhao broke into the palace. Seeing that Xi knew the pros and cons, he hurried to pull the prince.

But the prince pushed a big shot and fell to the sky, but he didn't care. He got up and chased after him. The soldiers guarding the gate also followed, dragging their arms and legs to delay time.

The palace city is not big. To the south of the Daqing Hall is the central government office, with gate towers separated from each other. To the north of the Daqing Hall is the front hall where the emperor looks at the dynasty. The court meetings are held every month and the suburban temple ceremony are completed.

At that time, the congratulations and reception of Khitan envoys were held in Zichen Hall. The Chuigong Hall on the west side of Daqing Hall was the place where the emperor usually listened to the government. The Wende Hall between Zichen and Chugong was the emperor's court before and after retreating.

A place to stay and rest.

Zhao Qi was like a demon at this moment. Anyone who dared to block the road would fight. Now the upper and lower classes in the palace saw Prince Yan's power again. He picked up a brick from somewhere and smashed it left and right. He was anxious and went

He quickly smashed several soldiers guarding the gate who were blocking the road to the ground. He thought that he had not seen his father in the harem today, so he must have been in the Chuigong Hall, so he rushed all the way, but received a police letter

The samurai of the temple also arrived in a hurry. They were crowded with powerful weapons and well-trained, which was difficult to deal with. Zhao Qi flew up a brick and smashed the leader's head with a red face.

He grabbed the iron bones in his hand and 'killed' into the crowd.

"I have an urgent matter to meet the emperor. Who dares to stop me? Don't blame me for being ruthless!" The warriors of course recognized Prince Yan, and they were inevitably worried about their actions, but Zhao Qi got the advantage, and a hammer in his hand made him look like a tiger's wings.

So he threw down a few warriors.

"Prince Yan stopped, do you know that breaking into the palace is a serious crime? Thinking that you don't understand the rules, go back to the house for the New Year early!" After receiving the report, the officials on duty in each department and the room rushed out to "protect the carriage" and the Minister of State was on duty.

The preference was that the young master Wang Fu. Seeing Zhao Jie playing wildly, he led a team of soldiers to arrive and blocked him and shouted.

"Hmph, New Year? I am not as interested as Wang Xiang. Fang Shisan is currently celebrating the New Year in Hangzhou City. I am afraid that I will come to Bianjing City to celebrate the New Year next year!" Zhao Xiao pointed at Wang Fu and snorted coldly.

"Prince Yan should not listen to the rumors on the street. The southeast is just a few demons who make trouble. It is a small problem. Once the heavenly soldiers come out after the New Year, they can be eliminated. Don't disturb the emperor like this!" Wang Fu took a slaughter.

I was shocked. I had sent people to various inns on the Beijing Road to intercept the Southeast messenger. All memorials about the Southeast civil war were suppressed by the Secretariat. How did this child know about this? If he had made trouble in front of the saint, he would have

I have to be unable to take it, so I can comfort this "little devil" first... (To be continued...)
