The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Li Gang is a good thing to be a strong official, but steel with high hardness in the past is easy to break and collapse. Now the mountains and rivers are broken, and life is tragic, and the front-line wars were once in a hurry. Li Gang believes that the most urgent task is to clean up people's hearts, and stabilizing the endgame is crucial. So he is for

To achieve this goal, he suppressed ministers with different opinions very much. As a result, many people in the court opposed him and had great opinions. So someone said in front of the Empress Dowager that Li Gang Party was the same and was stubborn and self-willed.

But Empress Dowager Zheng ignored it. She knew very well that under the current circumstances, only by removing the rotten meat from the court could they grow meat, and only by letting go of a pool of muddy water could they introduce clear water. She also needed such a steel knife to overcome all obstacles in front of her.

His son cleared all obstacles to ascending the throne.

Li Gang was too upright and could not unite his ministers, and could only be an isolated minister for the country and the people. Only then could her son succeed in taking office. Therefore, she ignored all these noises, but something happened to Li Gang and it made him feel that he had made him feel that his son would succeed.

Sent to the top of the wave.

At Li Gang's insistence, Zhang Bangchang was sentenced to death. He then breathed a sigh of relief. With this result, he could have given an explanation to the world. But soon Nankang Army reported that Xu Gao and Xu Kang were exiled to Qiongzhou.

On the way to Jiyang Army, he plotted to rebel while passing through the border. The local military officer Li Ding was arrested. The magistrate Han Shuo was killed in an emergency. Two officials are waiting for punishment and ask for instructions.

During the discussion, everyone said that this was "areless killing", and some people carried out the Taizu oath monument, so they could not kill scholars without killing them. Some people said that the edict sent by the Supreme Emperor on his way north also stated that the officials ascended the throne.

Since then, the punishment has been too great, and the disaster today has not been here. However, when you ascend the throne, you should also know this vow. And take the punishment as a warning.' For such things, you should be severely punished to serve as a warning.

Only Li Gang supported two small officials. He said: "During the Jingkang period, Gao and Kang were appointed to guard the river. There were many soldiers and generals. Before the thieves arrived, they ran away first. They escorted the whole family with five hundred cavalry and went straight to Jiangnan.

Looting is more than thieves. The court cannot regulate the military laws, but if an officer guarding an army dares to punish him, he will definitely strengthen his officials. This will allow those who are ordered to fight against the bandits in the future to know that they will retreat without authorization, and the officials of the county will also be punished.

Can they also know what they have to do? It should be rewarded."

This made Huang Qianshan, Wang Boyan and others seize the excuse. They wrote a letter to impeach Li Gang, saying that he violated the ancestral teachings and encouraged the killing of scholars. At this time, some people in the court still had different opinions on the execution of Zhang Bangchang, believing that Zhang Bangchang was forced to rebel and

There is a fundamental difference in taking the initiative to throw himself into his arms. He was not only cowardly and traitorous, but he was more than cowardly during the Jingkang period. Compared with those Song Chen who sold his country and the owners for honor, he was considered to be of the same level.

He is worthy of his king and father. He is a great man who lives up to the people of Bianliang.

Everyone dared not blame the Queen Mother, so they added the charges to the executor Li Gang and kept making trouble for Zhang Bangchang, saying that he was a mutton that he had not eaten. However, he was so angry that he was a bad guy with a smell of smell. He didn't say it at the right time.

, and he was once again in a bad reputation, and he would be more unfair than he was wronged!

With the help of the Kang Prince's Mansion, a wave of inverted appearances was set off in the court, and Li Gang was filled with righteous indignation. He kept defending himself and arguing with others. However, he could not speak alone and fell into trouble. At this critical moment, Deputy Prime Minister Xu Jingheng and Censor Zhongcheng, the Censor Zhongcheng, at this critical moment.

Chen Guoting and other Qin Wangshi and a group of officials who were inclined to them stood up to support Li Gang, while the Empress Dowager Zheng Hongmei supported Li Gang with one word. Not only did she take the credit for killing Zhang Bangchang, but she also agreed to his opinion and ordered two young people to

Each official is promoted to one level to show praise.

Empress Dowager Zheng’s trust in Li Gang and his opinions were basically adopted, which made Li Gang quite excited and determined to assist the empress dowager well and restore his national prestige. He thanked him and said, “Today’s national momentum is more difficult than starting a business.

The lord of entrepreneurs takes advantage of the rise, accumulates small and becomes big, and is easy to accomplish things. Now, when the country is in sluggish, after the Jin people invade, the scholars are lazy, the people are afraid of the treasury, the treasury is empty, the counties are broken, and the system is slackened;

The achievements of rejuvenation are like the fall of a building, and you must repair them one by one before you can be helped up.”

"However, the materials are scarce, so it is especially difficult! We should not be shaken by the discussions. We should do big things first, urgent things, and then do small things. According to my opinion, since ancient times, the leaders of entrepreneurship and revitalization have been the Emperor Gaozu of Han, Guangwu of Han, and Tang Dynasty.

Taizong, all three of them have the wise gifts. The King of Qin has the virtue of being generous and sincere, kind and tolerant, decisive but not confused, able to decide great things, achieve great success, quell the chaos, and create peace. He should be the king as soon as possible..."

The Song Dynasty, which was a century-old generation, was so corrupt that it was so corrupt that it was too corrupt. The Song Dynasty, whose capital was in Bianjing, was tragic, but it was also gratifying, which was that it gave a good opportunity to recreate the Song Dynasty! Li Gang's

This measure also reflected his good intentions. He really regarded the King of Qin as a revival figure like Emperor Guangwu of Han, intending to rebuild a powerful Song Dynasty.

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Zheng was very happy, but she knew that she was still in a bad mood, so she kept silent and said that the two emperors were still there and the Jin army had not retreated. Whether the Qin King ascended the throne was a big deal. She could not decide by herself.

After the emperor escaped from danger, he will discuss it. Now, all measures to build a strong country must be taken one by one.

"The biggest thing for the lord is to listen and see both sides, so that the feelings of the people can be understood. Today, in the difficult times, there are many people who want to report good and bad things from all directions every day. Many people are willing to give advice to the country.

The drum and drum procuratorate has not yet been set up, so it is not that the communication of the situation is a top priority!" The empress dowager's words made Li Gang feel that the empress dowager is fair and not for selfish interests, but considers the problem from the perspective of the entire country, so he

Rhyme.

Of course, Zheng Hongmei knew the pros and cons of this system. The advantage was that she could listen to the voice of the people, but she was often used as a weapon to attack political enemies. Although the court has been rectified now, there are still people who supported King Kang at that time who were in the court and the power of the Qin King.

It does not have an advantage, and if it is used well, it is a powerful tool to clean the alien party. Then it is correct, and the "Dengwen Drum" was set up outside the palace gate.

Li Gang immediately arranged the officials on duty according to the order. Two more "detailed officials" were set up to disassemble and read petition letters and proposals. If there are any suggestions that can be implemented, they must be submitted to the emperor for review. He also stipulated that in the three provinces,

A mailroom is set up at the door to accept the people’s accusations of grievances.

So a group of people were eliminated again, including Zhe Yanzhi, Deputy Envoy of Xuanfu, Qian Gai, and others. When the Jin army arrived, they were so scared that they fled to Chuanxia, ​​Hubei and Jiangnan and other rears.

Improper. I also took this opportunity to identify and clear local officials and generals who performed differently when the Jin army invaded. When the Jin army invaded, some officials defended their lives to the death, and some escaped before the thieves arrived.

Comment and criticism are used to show merits and crimes. So the fire of purging evil and mediocrity is burning to the local area again...

His suggestions have been supported by the Queen Mother again and again. Li Gang is motivated and continues to solve the most urgent task. He also put forward the first problem to solve, which is to minimize the possibility of the Jin people invading again. The method is not to compromise, but tolerate it in the past.

The lesson of peace exchange was too profound. So he proposed that he should treat Hebei and Hedong. He should not ignore it because he was nominally cedeed.

Hebei and Hedong are the country's shield. After cooking, the Central Plains can be protected and the Southeast can be safe. If you abandon these two routes and don't care about it, and you will be content in the southeast, just like there are thieves outside, without setting up barriers but want to be content in yourself. The inner hall is the same, so is that possible? Li Gang then analyzed. Although Hebei and Hedong were ravaged by the Jin people, they actually lost only a dozen prefectures and counties. The rest of the prefectures and counties were still guarding the city for the court. The Qin King was still there to take charge of the Fight

The scholars and soldiers and generals from all over the country supported the strong heart of the Song Dynasty, and those who could defend the city. Those who could build villages all recommended heroes as leaders. Tens of thousands of people gathered, and even fewer than ten thousand people. Those who only knew their names were known. There are more than ten places. If the imperial court does not set up an official government at this time, send envoys to seek revenge, and does not send troops to rescue the critical ones, they may be forced by the Jin people. The strong and cunning ones will be reduced to the Jin people, followed by the thief, and the old ones The weak women and children crossed the river and surrendered to Song, but what would the court treat it? The Jin people have always been good at surrendering. Although the soldiers and civilians from both sides were loyal and righteous, they would not arrive for a long time and they would inevitably resent the court when they were in danger. The Jin people would take the opportunity to pacify them. They all became elite soldiers. The Jin people sent generals to drive them to invade the Central Plains, and the Chinese soldiers would surely collapse and be difficult to control.

Therefore, it was proposed that the Hebei Purchase Department and the Hedong Economic and Technical Department should be set up to manage the two rivers. We should contact the heroes and recover the prefectures and counties, and the court will send them money, grain and appointment letters, and those who have made contributions will be given to the officials immediately. As long as one can be preserved, it will be If a prefecture or a county is regained, it will be granted the position of Jiedu, Defense, and Order Training based on its merits. This will not only eliminate their desire to surrender, but also use their power to defend the enemy. Therefore, the court will worry for a long time.

This is a major policy of keeping one's own strength and keeping one's low-key policy. The "autonomousness" mentioned here means improvement of internal affairs. After court discussion, the people of the Qin Palace were silent, but people from the Kang Palace expressed opposition.

The Kang Mansion opposes it because it conflicts with the order issued by the Grand Marshal's Office some time ago. The two policies are similar, but they are very different. One is to submit to the unified management of the imperial court; the other is to be incorporated into it by the Grand Marshal's Office. Commander.

If Zhao Gou can successfully ascend to the emperor, the so-called return to the marshal's house will be the same. Anyway, the world belongs to the emperor, but the throne is still hanging now, that's different. The throne may fail and one side will hold it. The soldiers respected themselves and fought against each other, which led to the danger of civil strife. Therefore, Li Gang's policies were a good medicine for the country, but poison for the Marshal's Mansion, which caused a strong rebellion.

This policy also hurts the interests of the Qin King's Mansion. Everyone knows that the reason why the Qin King can make a comeback is that he has a "private army" loyal to him. This is also the foundation of his life, and he will make himself stand. It is extremely difficult to hand over the army to manage uniformly.

In fact, the Qin King Army has its own system and owns its own territory. Now the supplies, money and food are self-sufficient. Instead of taking a penny from the Song Dynasty court, it has paid a lot. Even the court can be said to be the Qin King paying for it to maintain it. Although they did not officially announce their establishment, they were actually a country and had relatively duli nature. It is more appropriate to say that the guest army came to help.

But not only do you not give others any benefits, but you have to use an edict to incorporate their army, which is unreasonable. If the Qin Palace refuses to implement this edict, the Song Dynasty court will be in trouble. Even if they do not make things difficult for the court and withdraw their territory, they will not be able to bear it now. Everyone understands that if the King of Qin was not holding on to the front and supporting the big and small cars behind, the court would probably have to "moved the capital".

Li Gang's memorial was neglected by the two major forces in the court this time, and the Empress Dowager's attitude was not clear. However, the people from the Kang King's clan began to impeach Li Gang to take the opportunity to interfere in military affairs, and have the intention of being unjust. Please stop.

His prime minister. After the founding of the Song Dynasty, he strictly implemented the national policy of separating military and political affairs. Only during the war with the Western Xia in the second to fifth years of Qingli, the Privy Councilor was also appointed by the prime minister, and the two governments did not interfere with each other. Even Cai Jing, who was in power in the court and the opposition, also tried to

Intervene in military affairs and cannot be obtained.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the court was tense and tense. Li Gang refused to make a move to argue, but he also understood that he had lost the support of the empress dowager. His ideas were implemented by the law, so he went to the palace to meet the empress dowager Chen Jue, which was clearly a strong relationship.

Ask for support. Later, he found Zong Ze, the envoy of the Privy Council, to discuss and ask him to cooperate with him. Zong Ze was also in a dilemma. He could convince them to serve the country by the brave men of the incorporation, but the King of Qin was not sure. After all, that was someone else's establishment.

The foundation is that he is willing to give up easily, especially without a clear promise to ascend the throne, he can only give it a try...

There was no news for several days, and Li Gang also changed from full of hope to disappointment. Just when he felt that his reform plan was about to die, news suddenly came from the front that the King of Qin was willing to accept the will of the court and obey the order.

The Song Dynasty made efforts. After hearing this, Li Gang breathed a sigh of relief. The King of Qin vomited, and there was a breakthrough in this matter. He firmly believed in his heart that only a righteous person like the King of Qin could inherit the throne. When the Song Dynasty was revived, Tianping couldn't help but go to the

The King of Qin was tilted.

The King of Qin had an attitude. The Empress Dowager also issued an order to organize the army, appoint guards, and reward them with merits. The King of Qin was appointed as the Xuanfu Envoy of Hedong, Hezhong, Hebei, and Sanhe, and was granted the ranks and axes to dispatch the army, and appoint officials.

The right to deal with cameras; appointed Zhao Yong as the deployment of the military commander of Jingdong Road, Zhao Li as the deployment of the military commander of Jingxi Road, governing the military commander of the military commander of the jurisdiction, appointed Xu Hong to stay in Luoyang, and the Cheng brothers as the commander and deputy military commander of Xijing,

King Kang only got a position left behind in Nanjing.

Li Gang also considered the economic difficulties of the two routes in Hebei, and ordered relevant departments to urgently print money and send it to the two routes prefectures and counties. He allocated funds to the two routes to buy grain for military and civilians, and allocated some taxes from the mainland for administrative expenses of the two routes.

These measures were immediately effective! Both military and civilians knew the court's kindness and were excited. They handed them to the court to report military information every day. The heroes who gathered in the mountain village also applied for the recruitment.

Zhao Gou was so sad that he didn't expect that his second brother would be so decisive that he actually transferred all his "private army" to the court for use, but he gained great benefits from it. He immediately took almost all of the Central Plains into his pocket and controlled it.

He took all the power in Henan except the capital area. However, his own every plan was a gain. His great marshal of the world was already in name only, and being appointed as the one who stayed in Nanjing was just a means to drive him away from the capital.

"Mr. Huang, Lord. Wang, what should I do now?" Zhao Gou looked at his two major advisers and said coldly, secretly hated him. They actually came up with bad ideas, but they often fell into the trap of the King of Qin.

"King, I didn't expect that the King of Qin was so cunning and usurped the power through this method. This was the mistake of the subordinate!" Huang Qianshan saw that Zhao Gou's face was not very good, so he hurriedly criticized himself.

"Yes, King, it is really unexpected that King Qin takes retreat as he advances. His cunning and high mind make people convinced!" Wang Boyan also said.

"Hmph, his powerful generals are like clouds, and there is Yang Shi, where is the best? Zhou Xingji and other great scholars of the world are giving advice for him, and there is also the empress dowager in the palace to decide for him. How can we not take the lead!" Zhao Qiong's eyes were squirting

He said with ventriloquy and resentment in his words. As the prince, why is he inferior to him everywhere? He can only follow him and eat dirt.

"King, don't be anxious. As long as you climb to the treasure, these problems will be solved. No matter how hard he tries, will it still fall into your palm?" Huang Qianshan saw Zhao Gou's anger rising, and he was about to explode, so he quickly comforted him.

, He also understood in his heart that the mastery of the dragon is not so fun. If you become a noble family, you will be the most glorious person. If you miss it, it will be more than just a loss of office or dismissal. If you don't do it well, your family will be destroyed, but now

I had already boarded the boat and could only walk one way to the dark.

"I'm talking about inheriting the throne now. It's hard for us to get out of here. If we had known that we were in such a situation, what kind of edict would we receive, and we would send the imperial seal to the palace tomorrow!" Zhao Gou said with a wry smile.

He really felt a sense of strength when facing his second brother, and even felt that he could face it.

"The king must not think so. We still have a chance. Now that the King of Qin is besieged by the Jin army, we are in danger. We can take this opportunity to invite the Queen Mother to visit Nanjing. It is still under our control. As long as the Queen Mother leaves the capital, we will

You can use it to ascend the throne!" Wang Boyan said.

"Yes, as long as the Empress Dowager leaves the capital, there will be room for maneuver, and the King of Qin will also throw himself into trouble!" Huang Qianshan said.

"This matter is not that easy. The Jin army has been besieging Wumashan for more than half a month, but it cannot be captured for a long time. If there is really danger, then the Zhongxing Army stationed in the capital will not go to reinforce. Obviously, it is confident, maybe for the sake of

…” Zhao Gou shook his head and suddenly thought of something.

"Is it for the Supreme Emperor?" Huang Qianshan exclaimed.

"Yeah!" Zhao Gou nodded, and the three of them looked at each other, and their hearts were sank. If the King of Qin rescued the Supreme Emperor, it would be natural for the King of Qin to inherit the throne. Then his situation would be even more difficult. Now he must

Make plans early and do great things ahead, otherwise they would not dare to imagine what the consequences would be...)
