Chapter 25
Zhao Huan smiled slightly, helped him up, and then let him go back.
He walked slowly with his hands behind his back. On this spring street, the night wind blew gently, which was just a pleasure. He met several groups of fire patrol soldiers on the way, and was driven away by the imperial troupe who was accompanying him.
When he slowly walked to the west corner gate in front of the palace, Kang Chengxun, who was attending the palace, knew that it would be difficult for him to speak again as soon as he entered the palace. So he took two steps forward and said to Zhao Huan: "Officials, I have something to say."
"Oh?" Zhao Huan turned his head, looked at Kang Chengxun, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Kang Chengxun said in a deep voice: "Don't the official remember what Qin did when he went to Jing in the Jin Kingdom? He was cold and deep, resourceful and wise. He seemed to be able to speak and eloquently, and was simply a person like Shao Zhengmao. The official said frankly that such people could not be trusted or valued. Our dynasty has always put character first in our dynasty, and the Supreme Emperor used Cai Jing as a mistake. If Qin Hui was the prime minister, the disaster would definitely not be inferior to Cai Jing in the future."
Zhao Huan listened quietly, but after he finished speaking, he did not comment.
Kang Chengxun was very anxious and took two steps forward, and said: "The official family, I have determined that Qin Hui is a person like Li Linfu and Cai Jing. If the official family does not pay attention to it, he will suffer a great disaster in the future!"
Zhao Huan finally had no way to remain silent, and took a few quick steps forward, watching Kang Chengxun speak.
Kang Chengxun knew his meaning and immediately turned around and waved, stopping the rest of the guards.
When there were only two of them around, Zhao Huanfang whispered to him: "You are the commander-in-chief of my palace front office. Do you think you are my most trusted close minister?"
Kang Chengxun did not hesitate and immediately replied: "I know that no matter whether the official is happy or not, I must be insulted and straightforward!"
"Well, I'm very happy that you have this loyalty."
Zhao Huan first nodded and praised, and then said, "Zhuge Liang said that many scholars and officials in later generations also said that the monarch should be close to wise ministers and stay away from villains. But in fact, there should be no gentlemen around the monarch, but there should be villains. Why should Wu Zetian use Junchen and Zhou Xing? Because she ascended the throne as emperor, how many people around her were dissatisfied? How many people were plotting in the dark to drive her down and re-establish Li Tang? Isn't she afraid? Lai Junchen and Zhou Xing killed many people, but a few people were unjustly killed. Compared with the throne, who is less or more serious?"
Kang Chengxun said anxiously: "The official family is different from Wu Zetian. She usurped the throne and ascended the throne as a woman. Natural people are not attached to the hearts of the people. The official family is the eldest son of the Supreme Emperor and the legitimate emperor of the Song Dynasty. How could he demote himself in such a way!"
Zhao Huan smiled coldly and said to him: "Things are different but the principles are the same. Chengxu, why did the city of Tokyo in the Song Dynasty be destroyed? The prince, princess, and princesses and concubines were taken to the city of Five Kingdoms, like cattle and sheep?"
Kang Chengxun kept saying a lot, but there was no answer.
He wanted to say that the Supreme Emperor and the official father and son were incompetent, and that the country was destroyed, but he could not say it out loud.
Zhao Huan knew that he could not answer, so he said again: "Since Emperor Renzong's new policy, then Emperor Shenzong's reform was not achieved. Why? The new policy of Qingli used Fan Zhongyan, and Emperor Shenzong used Wang Anshi. They were all gentlemen, and they all wanted to enrich the country and strengthen the army. But after all, they were all over the country and the people were too square. The reason why they were too gentlemen and too square. The reform was to strengthen the country and the people were rich and strong, but who was the loss?
The literati and officials, but the officials and noble relatives are the ones who suffer! So, why do scholars and royal relatives need reforms and new policies? But it is precisely because of their power in their hands that even the emperors of all dynasties cannot be underestimated. Emperor Zhenzong cannot measure the land near Tokyo again. Think about it, how terrifying this power is. There are strong enemies outside the Song Dynasty and are really tired inside. If I deal with it with the usual law, it will only be a relatively safe situation within ten years. Ten years later, people will be determined, and the Jin Kingdom will occupy the north and the Song Dynasty will be with me.
The army was drawn and the army was promoted in vain, or the people could make progress after a bloody battle, and the people were still the hardest. I don’t know what kind of person he was? I look at his actions, listen to his words, and observe his actions. The young man was successful and ambitious, but he could not endure hardship and could not stand up. He served as a Jin man in the north, and tried his best to suppress him after he came back. Once he succeeded, he would definitely gain power. However, this kind of villain has an advantage, that is, he has good things from the superiors and subordinates must follow. What does the monarch like?
You must welcome the monarch. If you don’t have any ideals, the monarch’s idea is their idea. I want to reform and strive for strength. I have the most capable candidate in front of me. Why not use Li Gang? He is too upright and too old. Zhu Shengfei is a mediocre person. Xie Liang and Zhang Su are not worthy of being on the side. Zhang Jun has great ambitions and talent, Zhao Ding has a small ambition. I think about it before and after, Qin Hui is not good enough to be better. I will use it as a capable official. I will abandon it just an edict. What are you afraid of?”
He made such a long statement to convince Kang Chengxun and himself.
In any case, if you use such a big traitor instead of killing him, you will be very sad.
Kang Chengxun was originally a martial artist and had a straightforward personality, so he persuaded Zhao Huan not to use Qin Hui's actions. At this time, the emperor was so obsessed with the emperor's mind and told himself with an ancient mind. He was obviously not guarding at all. He was extremely moved and blushed and said, "I am too reckless. I don't know that the government has its own opinions. If Feng Hui is openly impeached, I am afraid that the government will ruin the major affairs."
Zhao Huan smiled slightly, patted his shoulder, and said, "If you have any ideas, it's best to talk to me first. Outside, you are a military officer and a close minister, so it's good to see the government affairs, but it's not good to say more."
Kang Chengxun said nothing more and replied sternly: "Yes, I must follow the teachings of the official family."
The two of them were speechless for a moment. After a while, they saw that the back door was looking at, and many guards guarding the gate saw Zhao Huan from afar and were already welcomed. Kang Chengxun couldn't help but say, "Officials, although Qin Hui used it reasonably, I always feel that the villain is successful and I feel uncomfortable."
Zhao Huan sneered softly and replied: "I have the power in my hands. I will give him the power and blessings when I use him. If I don't use him, it is normal to wipe him off in one stroke."
After saying that, he walked with his hands behind his back and ignored this straight-hearted warrior.
Kang Chengxun was stunned. After a while, Fang thought: "The official said this really scared people."
Zhao Huan ignored him and surrounded himself with the guards. He entered the corner gate of the palace gate and entered the large interior.
When they arrived in front of the inner courtyard, the guards could not enter. Only a few young eunuchs came forward, held lanterns, and welcomed Zhao Huan into the courtyard. The palaces in Chang'an City were just renovated by the yamen. The regulations were narrow and could barely be divided into the outer court and inner court. In fact, it was just a courtyard wall. Zhao Huan met officials every day, handled political affairs, and walked through a courtyard wall with blue bricks and green tiles. He could reach the main hall of the outer courtyard. After dealing with political affairs every day, he stepped into this small courtyard wall, and there was no external affairs, and no internal affairs were left out. He formed a small world.
Zhao Huan came from modern times and was also very disliked the eunuch system that harmed people's bodies. He made up his mind to stop taking a eunuch who was physically disabled and mentally unhealthy. However, hundreds of eunuchs who were originally sent to vote from everywhere, but he could not refuse and had to keep them all.
Over time, I gradually realized the benefits of eunuchs.
These people are physically disabled and abandoned by their families and parents. They are single and discriminated against by the world. There is nothing else in their eyes except an emperor. Of course, relying on the emperor to accumulate money, or to become the commander-in-chief and the highest-ranking minister like Li Xian and Tong Guan, is also the hope of eunuchs.
Zhao Huan naturally did not use eunuchs to command troops, supervise the army, nor did he use eunuchs in spy organizations. However, as the master, enjoying the meticulous care of hundreds of people, which also made him feel a little fun as an emperor in this era.
Of course, holding the power and the life and death of millions of people is the greatest pleasure of being a man. It is also the greatest motivation for Zhao Huan to hold on in this era. The old saying is the most reasonable, and it is the sentence: Should a real man be like this?
Although he maintains a simple image to the outside world, in Zhao Huan's opinion, the current enjoyment is enough.
The room is decorated in a spacious and gorgeous manner, with Zhou Ding and Qin Yi displays it.
A bathtub with a tall bath with hot water. Five or six beautiful palace maids lined up around the corner, with their slender hands gently stretched out, and the fragrance lingered. After taking a bath, they changed into soft and thin clothes, leaving a brother waiting to be served in bed, and naturally the whole room was full of spring.
Zhao Huan did not need to abstinence, but he was not a love saint. In ancient times, he still had to pick up girls to fall in love? It was too stupid. The maids around him were all carefully selected after fleeing south. Although he did not agree to the large-scale talent show outside the country and harass the people, he secretly sent people to carefully select good women. They were all young women with a gentle temper and aged about 16 or 17 years old, waiting by his side.
He had already suffered the losses of modern women, and he had to surrender, coax her, follow her, and finally turned against her. It was these ancient young girls who regarded him as heaven and everything, and every move in their lives was to please him.
A man can do this, but he will ask for it, but what else does he say?
After getting up the next day, he immediately summoned the Hanlin scholar and drafted an edict to appoint Qin Hui as the Chief Minister and the Minister of the Secretariat.
The edict of appointing the prime minister should be signed by other prime ministers to accomplish things. Song Taizu dismissed the position of prime ministers including Fan Zhi, and there were only three prime ministers at that time, and they were all dismissed. As a result, when the new prime minister Zhao Pu was appointed, there was no other prime minister signed the deputy signing, which made a big joke.
Zhao Huan wrote an edict, but because Li Gang was not around, Xie Liang and other deputy chief political affairs officers were appointed. Although Zhu Shengfei was reluctant, he had to follow the picture.
After they signed the letter, the Secretariat sent someone to the Qin Mansion to deliver the edict, Qin Hui received the edict and thanked the emperor for his kindness.
For such a big event, other officials were not yet able to come to congratulate him. The families of Qin's family were all happy and cheered. They knelt down in the darkness of the court and congratulated Qin Hui.
Qin Hui was not happy, and after he held the edict in the inner hall, his wife Wang saw that he was not happy, but was worried, and couldn't help but say wonderingly: "What my husband asked for in his life is just today. Why don't he be happy or sad?"
Qin Hui sighed: "Of course I want to sell the imperial family, and become generals and prime ministers. My life is extremely high. However, last night I had a long talk with Your Majesty and said nothing. Although I won the appreciation of Your Majesty, I gave me the title of Prime Minister. However, I am afraid that I will be troublesome from now on, and I will never have peace of mind. What I am even more afraid of is that I will be full of infamous in the future. Your Majesty dealt with me like a mistake. It was really a dream of yellow and waking up even more desolate!"
