Chapter 14 The big era has finally arrived!
The mourning boat full of banners is ready to go in Zhuxian Town.
Su Shi and Su Zhe were dressed in mourning clothes and were about to help the spirits return to Meishan. Ouyang Bian helped to help the spirits. After sending the coffin on the boat, Su Shi and Ouyang Bian stood on the shore and talked.
"Ji Mo, I'm afraid I can't attend your wedding, it's really a pity!"
Su Shi said guiltily.
Ouyang Bian smiled slightly: "It's okay, when you come back, let's drink and write poems again.
Don’t waste your knowledge when you go back. Shi Shuxian has been obsessed with learning in his heart before he goes. You must inherit his will and study his heart thoroughly.
When I come next time, I hope you can teach you the study of your heart at Your Majesty’s lecture.
When you come next time, do you know that you want to be your adoptive father to my son? My son will follow you to learn from you.”
Su Shi smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, no, I will work hard. I will often write to you after I go back."
Ouyang Bian nodded with a smile.
The deceased boat starts.
The two brothers Su Shi and Su Zhe waved desperately to Ouyang Bian.
Seeing Ouyang Bian's figure getting farther and farther away on the shore, Su Shi couldn't help but shed tears.
Su Che patted his brother's shoulder and comforted him: "Brother, it's only three years, and you will see Ji Mo again by then."
Su Shi wiped his tears and nodded: "When my father was alive, he always said that Ji Mo was very thoughtful, but he was also a very kind person."
Su Che nodded in agreement: "After so many years, Ji Mo is indeed a very worthy friend.
He really had nothing to say to us father and son. This time, my father's funeral was entirely up to Ji Mo. If it weren't for him, we brothers might have to be blind."
Su Shi nodded.
At this time, the old housekeeper behind came to report: "...There is a big box on the ship. Is it the two young men's?"
Su Shi and Su Zhe looked at each other and said in unison: "Go and take a look."
In fact, they had already made a judgment in their minds. Sure enough, the box was filled with silver and gold, and there were some field deeds inside, with a letter on it.
Su Shi quickly opened it and read it, and Ouyang Bian's writings were as free and easy as the thin Ou style came to his face.
"Zizhan, Ziyou, I see my words as if I met you! We have known each other for nearly ten years since Jiayou, but we are together for a long time, but I treat Zizhan Ziyou as my own brother.
This time, my uncle went there, and Zizhanziyou had to keep the ritual for three years. After such a long time, Zizhanziyou was not sent, and he received not much salary. Zizhan's family and Zizhan were also a family member. So many people ate horses and chewed, which cost a lot.
Zizhan Ziyou is a noble person. His Majesty gave him 100 taels of silver and 100 pieces of silk, Han Qi gave him 300 taels of silver, and my father gave him 200 taels of silver, and others wanted to give him to Cheng Yi, but Zizhan Ziyou refused one by one, which was indeed what the ancient sages did.
However, after Zizhanzi returned home, family expenses were inevitable, so you two could naturally work hard to survive, but my nieces and nieces could not suffer with you, and they would still have to grow up.
So I will take my own initiative and give you a trivial Cheng Yi. No matter what, no matter how hard it is, the child cannot be miserable. Don’t refuse it anymore.
Then my uncle's grave had to be repaired better, and my uncle had to be buried with him, so I couldn't save this money.
In addition, the Su family's mansion has become a bit dilapidated. Although the Su family is a scholarly family, it cannot look too dilapidated, otherwise it will not be beautiful after all. The luxury of the mansion has nothing to do with the character of the people, but it will affect the reputation in the village, so it is better to repair some..."
The letters were very long, and Ouyang Bian gave instructions one by one in detail. Su Shi dripped tears while watching, and Su Che's eyes were red.
Ouyang Bian's instructions seemed tedious, but his earnest concern was beyond words.
...
Ouyang Bian sighed softly as he watched the demise of the funeral ship.
When he looked back, Ouyang Bian's eyes were no longer soft and only sharp.
The souls of the old man have gone far away, and the magnificent era of Poland ahead is about to begin!
The time Ouyang Bian is looking forward to is coming!
The time is like a shuttle, and summer and autumn pass by, and the winter solstice is coming again.
After the winter solstice, the yang returns and the day grows.
The winter solstice means a new beginning, so the winter solstice is also highly valued.
"Although the poorest people accumulate loans in one year, they will be more likely to change their clothes, prepare food, worship their ancestors, and celebrate the exchanges, just like the New Year's Day."
The Winter Solstice is described in the Tokyo Dream Record.
The Winter Solstice was a good day for the whole world to celebrate, but the Song Dynasty was covered with a dark cloud.
Zhao Shu fell ill.
After Zhao Shu fell ill, he not only could not attend the court for many days, but also could not speak. He could only endorse his words with a pen, and all the handling of military and national affairs were written on paper.
Although the imperial doctors treated him in many ways, his condition was still getting heavier and the court officials were all worried.
This situation is very similar to the later years of Emperor Zhenzong and Renzong, but Zhao Shu is only 36 years old!
His father fell ill, and Zhao Zhong was worried about this and came to Ouyang Bian specifically: "What should I do?"
Ouyang Bian said: "You must stay with the emperor day and night during this period."
Zhao Zhongzhen nodded: "This is my duty as a son."
Ouyang Bian nodded and said with a deep meaning: "This is not just a duty."
Zhao Zhongzhen suddenly realized.
On December 21, Yingzong's condition further worsened.
As a daily negotiator, Ouyang Bian recorded the subsequent situation truthfully.
"...Xincho, the emperor's illness increased. After asking about his daily life, Qi replied, "Your Majesty has not looked at the court for a long time, and he is worried and worried between China and foreign countries. It is better to establish the crown prince early to calm the hearts of the people."
The emperor nodded, and Qi asked the emperor to personally direct the instructions. The emperor wrote a letter saying, "Make the king the crown prince."
Qi said, "It must be King Ying, I am sorry to ask the saint to write it in person."
The emperor also criticized it and said, "King Ying Xu."
Qi immediately summoned the eunuch Gao Jujian to give him a letter to the imperial letter and ordered the Hanlin scholar to make the grass.
The scholar received the order from Zhang Fangping to the bed and reported the order. The emperor said several words based on the number of words, but Fangping could not tell. The emperor used his finger to draw the number. Fangping asked to write the instructions, so he wrote the pen.
The emperor wrote the cross of the letter "Then he surrendered the system and made him the crown prince". The title of the letter was not very clear. Fang Ping asked him again. The emperor wrote the two words "Ying Wang" and the three words "Da Da Wang". Fang Ping retreated and cursed it."
Translated into vernacular Chinese: On December 21, Yingzong's condition further worsened.
After the prime ministers asked their worries, Han Qi came forward and said, "Your Majesty has not looked at the court for a long time, and China and foreign countries are worried and afraid. It is better to establish the crown prince early to calm the hearts of the people."
Yingzong nodded.
Han Qi asked Yingzong to write by himself, and Yingzong wrote: "Make the king the crown prince."
Han Qi said: "What Your Majesty refers to is King Ying? Please make it clear."
Yingzong then wrote below: "Ying Wang Xu."
Han Qi hurriedly summoned the eunuch Gao Jujian and handed him the imperial letter, and ordered the Hanlin Bachelor to draft the book.
After a while, Zhang Fangping, a Hanlin scholar, arrived quickly and stood by the imperial bed.
Yingzong leaned on several tables and said a few words in a vague way, but Zhang Fangping couldn't recognize them.
Yingzong used his finger to write on several tables. Zhang Fangping hurriedly handed over paper and pen. Yingzong wrote ten words: "The next day, the system was demoted to be the crown prince", and the names written in them were not very clear.
Zhang Fangping presented paper and pen and asked the emperor to write again. Yingzong then wrote down the words "King Ying" and the three words "Big King".
After Ouyang Bian saw Zhang Fangping receiving the order, Zhao Shu couldn't help but burst into tears when he withdrew.
Ouyang Bian's expression remained unchanged, but he sneered in his heart.
Zhao Shu's desire for power is really great. When his life is on the verge of a thread, he is reluctant to leave the power in his hands.
Ouyang Bian was always grateful for Zhao Zhen, so Zhao Shu, who had burned the bridge across the river, always made him unable to feel good.
Although he has been following Zhao Shu in recent years, he hardly took the initiative to talk to Zhao Shu, like an invisible person. Oh, no, it is like a driving recorder, honestly recording everything.
Zhao Shu also mentioned that he wanted to read Ouyang Bian's daily life notes, but was rejected by Ouyang Bian, so Zhao Shu had to give up.
But he still believed in Ouyang Bian.
Ouyang Biankezhong's duties are a good social animal at first sight... Oh, no, he is a loyal minister of the court and will not record historical facts because of his own preferences.
But I believe Zhao Shu himself knew that in history books, his evaluation would not be very good. After all, since he ascended the throne, he had achieved almost nothing and caused trouble, causing trouble in the court.
In the fourth year of Zhiping, on the eighth day of the first lunar month, Emperor Yingzong died of illness at the age of 36 and reigned for five years.
On the same day, the crown prince Zhao Xu, who was only twenty years old, ascended the throne.
Empress Dowager Cao was honored as the Empress Dowager, and Empress Gao was honored as the Empress Dowager.
All officials will be promoted to the first level, and each will have rewards.
Yes, Ouyang Bian was promoted again.
Ouyang Bian worked diligently for several years during the reign of Emperor Yingzong, and his official position was unchanged.
It was because Renzong was born one level when he died, and now Yingzong is dead, and he is promoted to another level.
It's quite sad to say.
Ouyang Xiu has been in poor health in recent years, has taken many leave places, and has insufficient influence on the government affairs, so Han Qi has basically taken over the government affairs.
Yingzong was still resentful of Ouyang Bian's obstruction of him from banning his biological father. In addition, Ouyang Bian was not very happy to take things that he wanted to interfere in daily life, so he did not say a word about Han Qi's suppression of Ouyang Bian.
So Ouyang Bian worked diligently in the daily life for several years.
But this is what Ouyang Bian wants.
He has benefited a lot from his daily life account for more than three years. He watched the top ministers compete on this stage close by, and was even more aware of the operation of the empire.
The past three years have combined Ouyang Bian's accumulation in his previous life with the accumulation in this life, which has a sense of integration.
Nowadays, I have some new ideas about the ways and means of the previous plan to change.
After a few years of dormancy, it is almost time to explode.
In the fourth year of Zhiping, Ouyang Bian was promoted to the former official and was sent to the office of the daily necessities.
Chapter completed!
