Not only Zhao Ji showed dissatisfaction, but also Zhao Huan.

Including the Prince of Yun and other princes, they all saw the weakness of Ban Zhi.

The eyes of the princes were also dissatisfied, and even frightened.

Relying on these people to protect their father and son to escape?

This is a joke.

Martial arts, height, and body shape are secondary.

Courage is the most important thing at this time.

If you are reluctant to leave your small family and have no courage, what is the use of such a tall and strong Ban Zhi?

Usually, these guys guard the palace gates and pretend to be there.

Just like some ordinary locks in later generations, anti-theft is also a show, preventing gentlemen but not villains.

It seems that the existence of Ban Zhi is the same now, preventing ordinary people and ministers, but not real enemies and traitors.

At this moment, Zhao Ji almost gave up the idea and plan of escaping.

It was too risky to rely on these people to escort him to escape.

During the Jingkang period, Zhao Ji fled south under the protection of Tong Guan, Ban Zhi and the imperial guards when the enemy was nowhere to be seen.

When he came back later, Tong Guan and others were gone, so Zhao Ji gave up the idea of ​​escaping again and was eventually captured.

And the royal family and kings of the Northern Song Dynasty, including Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, were all captured, and none of them escaped.

The only exception was Zhao Gou, who was not protected by Ban Zhi, but Zhao Gou himself was brave enough to talk freely in the Jin camp and show his military skills.

He didn't look like a prince, but more like a son of a military family.

The Jin people became suspicious and sent Zhao Gou back, replacing him with another prince as a hostage.

Zhao Gou was able to stay away from home, and soon Kaifeng fell. Zhao Gou began to flee, and took over local government and guards along the way, and began to build his own power.

Zhao Gou started from scratch. He did not inherit the useless Banzhi and the imperial guards, and threw away the big burden.

But it also buried hidden dangers.

It laid the seeds for the rebellion of Miao Fu and others.

Most of Zhao Gou's imperial camps were the original Western Army and local garrisons.

There was no foundation for Banzhi to serve for generations, and the generals of the imperial camp were not generals who served for generations. Moreover, the eunuchs who practiced martial arts in the palace also broke the inheritance. All kinds of imperial weapons, eunuchs and guards were all newcomers, and they could not be compared with the inheritance of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Eventually, the Miao Liu Rebellion occurred. Emperor Zhao Gou was imprisoned in his own imperial camp. He first planned to depose the emperor and then become the emperor. Although the Miao Liu Rebellion was suppressed by Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong and others, it also brought considerable turmoil to the Southern Song Dynasty.

It also planted the seeds of distrust of warriors in Zhao Gou's heart.

It can be regarded as a tragedy.

If Zhao Gou had brought out a few hundred eunuchs and a few thousand guards to form the basic base of the imperial camp, a mutiny would be unlikely to happen.

But there was also the problem that these people were not very useful.

So this is the contradiction.

It is best not to break the balance. Once the balance is lost, it will be very difficult to re-establish the balance.

Zhao Ji and othersWhat they are facing is the break of balance. The Liangshan bandits outside the city will not be afraid of these Banzhi in front of them, including the pretending imperial guards.

These imperial guards and Banzhi are loyal and trustworthy, but their ability and courage are extremely poor.

But if they are elite warriors who have fought hundreds of battles and are extremely fierce, how can Zhao Ji sleep peacefully at night?

This is the same embarrassing situation as the end of the Tang Dynasty. Eunuchs and the Shen Ce Army are trash, but they are the last guarantee of the Tang Dynasty.

Once they are lost, the Tang emperor will be rootless and can only be manipulated by others.

So Tang Zhaozong, this idiot, repeatedly colluded with local vassal states to kill all eunuchs, which was completely digging his own grave.

Zhao Ji is not that stupid.

Despite his disappointment, Zhao Ji still seriously encouraged the Banzhi in front of him, which made their expressions much more normal.

Next, Zhao Ji walked towards the Daqing Palace with strange thoughts, surrounded by eunuchs.

The bell gradually stopped.

Zhao Ji frowned even more.

It was too ridiculous.

Originally, there were guards standing guard all the way, and there were guards with imperial weapons inside and outside the palace, leading the guards.

Then there were eunuchs, who led the guards and knew the eunuchs who led the guards.

There would be ceremonial guards placed along the palace gate to the palace, showing the dignity of the royal family.

The censors of etiquette walked back and forth to see whether the court clothes of each official were appropriate. Any improper behavior such as talking, looking around, coughing, etc. would be recorded and impeached after the court meeting.

Everything must be in order, and there must be the atmosphere of the royal family's wealth and the dignity of the emperor everywhere.

The officials of the Song Dynasty were not as majestic as the emperors of the Han Dynasty, and the laws of the Song Dynasty were not as strict as those of the Qin and Han Dynasties. It was impossible for the Song Dynasty to execute people at will.

The Song Dynasty had been passed down for a hundred years, and everything had rules and traditions.

But the situation before us...

The bell had been rung for a long time, but less than 70% of the officials had come.

They were sparse and disorderly.

Many of the imperial censors who were responsible for correcting the ceremony had asked for leave, and the officials were panicked. They had not yet stood in line, and the situation was in chaos.

The squad was not in order either. The loyal and brave ones were picked out and gathered together, and the rest were pale and looked distracted.

If more than a hundred Liangshan heroes rushed in now...

It would be a shame for the Zhao Song Dynasty.

But it was better than the Jingkang Shame anyway.

Zhao Ji was an emperor no matter what, and the situation before him was simply a slap in his face.

But this was not the time to lose his temper, so he could only secretly order that the list of officials who would attend the court meeting today be recorded. (To read the novels of Bao Shuang, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

(acci) There will be a time to settle accounts in the future.

These guys will inevitably be sent to Huguang, Guangdong, Fujian and other places to monitor the liquor tax.

"Your Majesty, I, Cai Jing, pay my respects to you."

Although there were several senior palace envoys in the palace, their status and position were ordinary, and they were purely promoted by seniority, and staying in the court was just for decoration.

LeadThe one who bowed his head and body was of course the prime minister, the minister of literature, and the Grand Tutor Cai Jing.

In fact, Cai Jing was not only appointed as the Grand Tutor during his lifetime, but also became the Grand Master of the Imperial Court the first time he was dismissed from the position of Prime Minister. This was a rare honor in the Northern Song Dynasty, much more honorable than the title of Marquis.

Zhong Shidao was originally awarded the Grand Master of the Imperial Court only after his death, which shows that the Song court did not grant this position lightly.

In addition, he was the Zuo Pushe. After the reform, the Pushe was the Grand Prime Minister, called the Public Prime Minister, and was in charge of the three ministries of Zhongshu, Menxia, ​​and Shangshu.

He was also appointed as the Duke of Lu.

He had also been appointed as the Grand Commandant before.

Cai Jing had to write off all his official posts, and one business card was not enough.

At this time, Cai Jing was not yet so old that he was perverted.

Cai Jing, who was about 80 years old, was in a daze every day and could not see anything. All memorials were handled by his son.

The court and the public were shocked.

Song Huizong also lost his favor for this old dog and impatiently ordered him to retire. []

After Qinzong succeeded to the throne, the situation deteriorated greatly. People attacked Cai Jing as the leader of the six thieves and he was very bad for the state.

So it was decided to exile him to Tanzhou for supervision.

Cai Jing was old, and with these troubles, exile was risky for young and middle-aged people. Cai Jing was over 80 years old and finally died on the way to exile.

But Cai Jing, who was young and middle-aged or even in his 60s and 70s, was still worth watching.

Although Cai Jing was favored for his calligraphy and painting, and spared no effort to attack the Yuanyou Party, resulting in a wave of bad reviews, in fact, Cai Jing's disgrace mainly came from the late period of his rule.

In order to consolidate his trust, he did not hesitate to fully support Song Huizong in carrying out the Flower and Stone Gang and the Land Collection Law, turned a blind eye to various things that corrupted the government, only knew to please the emperor, and never restrained Huizong from making trouble.

His own son, the fourth son, married the Emperor, and handled official affairs for him.

The eldest son, Cai You, became the deputy envoy of the Privy Council.

Many of his students and old friends all became high-ranking officials.

Even the maids had to marry high-ranking military officers and become wives.

This person is a bit like Yan Song in his later years, who committed suicide.

But Yan Song's achievements are not as good as Cai Jing's, just like Yan Song also has good handwriting, but his calligraphy achievements are far inferior to Cai Jing's.

At the beginning of Cai Jing's tenure, it was inevitable to crack down on the old party. If he didn't crack down on them, would he stay and make things difficult for himself?

When the old party was in power, did they suppress the new party less?

Cai Jing set up the Lecture Hall in the capital province, promoted the market exchange law and the square field equal tax law, constantly changed the salt and tea monopoly system, reformed the currency system, improved the market system, etc., and increased government fiscal revenue.

In addition, Cai Jing scaled up and institutionalized social relief, set up nursing homes, Anjifang, and Louze Garden, which was a popular move. In terms of education, during the Chongning period, he presided over the "Chongning Education Promotion", requiring the establishment of local schools throughout the country, and the establishment of a three-level school system of county schools, state schools, and imperial colleges; the restoration of medicine, the establishment of specialized schools such as mathematics, calligraphy, and painting.

Calligraphy and painting were considered flattery to Huizong.

The establishment of medicine and mathematics definitely showed that Cai Jing's knowledge far exceeded that of ordinary scholars at the time.

Cai Jing also disdained Neo-Confucianism.A glance.

Local welfare, also willing to spend money.

Militarily, he has always supported the Western Army to attack Xia. Under his leadership, the Western Army has already suppressed the Xia Army.

So, people are complicated.

At this moment, seeing Cai Jing standing at the head of the civil officials and saluting him, Zhao Ji, who also had a complicated heart, was relieved. .
