? "Shuzhou affairs..." Zhao Huan frowned slightly. The full text has no advertisements

She was not ignorant of the world, but also knew some things about the government and the people. It was like during the Qingli period, Fan Zhongyan eliminated all incompetent officials in the world. Fu Bi advised him, "After this writing, the whole family will cry." Fan Zhongyan replied, "How can the family cry all the way?" However, for the superiors, noble officials are close to each other and the people are far away, and the people are deeply exploited, extorted, and abused. Even Zhao Huan, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, has heard of these cruel facts, but he has always subconsciously not thought about it. The so-called protection of officials is an extension of "there are equality in relatives, and the honor has skills". People have many common feelings like Fu Bi, who would rather be selectively numb than easily commit crimes of people with similar status or closeness.

"In view of Mr. Zhao's situation, he must speak up for justice for the people," Zhao Huanlilied his hair on his forehead and stood up: "Minister's fat and people support the royal family, and the emperor's brother let these people do whatever they want? They are like this, except wearing a piece of skin from the Song people, how is it different from the Liao thieves in Hebei?" She believed that what was said in the letter was true and she was extremely sympathetic to the victim's woman. She immediately took the palace maid Shaoyao to meet the emperor's brother, hoping that Zhao Ke could help the two wronged women.

...

In the flower hall of the back garden of the palace, Zhao Ke sat with the embroidery dormitory, Deng Su and Wang Gui stood beside him.

The emperor did not meet in the Chuigong Hall, but in the back garden, which was a show of favor. But Wang Gui was a little nervous about this favor. He was respectful on his face, but he knew in his heart that the prime minister was the prime minister and the emperor was just honored. He relied on the support of Chen Dong and Cao Liangshi to take charge of the troops in the southeast camp. Because of the lessons of Yue Fei, Cao Di and Zhao Xingde's self-respecting army, the court intervened a lot when rebuilding the southeast camp. Not only were the guards accepted the orders of the Ministry of War, but many of the commanders were also in the management of the society. Therefore, Wang Gui answered Zhao Ke's questions respectfully, and no word was beyond the scope of ordinary prosecutors. It was rare that the commander generals could be so vague. Deng Su sighed slightly in his heart, and Zhao Qi's face gradually became a little impatient.

"Wang Aiqing, you command the troops in the southeast and control tens of thousands of people. Can you tell me what is the loyalty of the minister?"

Wang Gui's heart was shocked and said, "I am loyal to the Song Dynasty and went through fire and water, and I will never refuse."

"Then you say," Zhao Qi's face darkened slightly, and he asked again: "What is the Great Song Dynasty?"

"This..." Wang Gui was speechless for a moment. The Song Dynasty was the Song Dynasty, and he never thought about the question of "what is the Song Dynasty".

"I," Zhao Qi shouted sternly, "I am the Song Dynasty!" His voice was quite loud, echoing in the room. Outside the flower hall, Zhao Huan suddenly heard this sentence, and was shocked, stopped and stood outside. Deng Su's face changed slightly. "Your Majesty," Wang Gui knelt down on his knees, buried his head lower, and said respectfully: "I am loyal to the Song Dynasty, long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty!" Zhao Qi summoned Wang Gui and had no hope to conquer him. But he always felt depressed in his heart, and he couldn't help but spread it. Seeing that Wang Gui was still responding with high-sounding words, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

"You go back." Zhao Qi waved his hand, looked at Wang Gui's back, and sighed desolately.

"Your Majesty, this Wang Gui..."

"Deng Aiqing," Zhao Qi interrupted Deng Su's words and said, "I am the Great Song Dynasty, don't you agree?"

Deng Su pondered for a while but did not answer. Huangzhoushan's "destroyed dynasties and the destruction of the world" has been passed down for a long time. Since Ezhou's "respecting the emperor and not obeying the orders", the reality of the monarch has become a fact. Whether it is the people in the society, the marquis party of Jingdong, the general who commands the military, or the gentry who controls the prefectures and counties, except for a very small number of stubborn and pedantic people, there are probably few who believe that Zhao Qi said, "I am the Song Dynasty." Even Deng Su, who has always relied on the heavy responsibility of Zhao Qi, is the Song Dynasty. Mencius said, "The people are the most important, and the country is the second, and the king is the least important." The three are divided into importance, and Deng Su himself does not think that the king is the Song Dynasty's country.

"Your Majesty should cultivate virtue to win people's hearts," Deng Su said tactfully for a long time, "If the hearts of people are in Your Majesty, your Majesty will be in the Song Dynasty."

"If that is..." Zhao Qi stopped his mouth in time, "If the heart is not in me," this sentence itself is not what a wise king should say. He was so angry that he was amazed. Blue veins on the back of his fair hands rose. He looked outside the flower hall, but his eyes turned softer, and he called out first: "Sixteenth sister." Zhao Huan moved his lotus steps lightly and said, "Emperor brother." The brother and sister were not only born to a mother, but also suffered together when the eldest brother Zhao Ke was in court. The friendship was extraordinary. In the world, if anyone could listen to Zhao Huan's thoughts, it was Zhao Qi. Similarly, the only one who could let Zhao Qi go of his worries was the only one who could let go of his worries was the only one.

"Sixteenth sister, is there anything good to me for my appreciation?" Zhao Qi said with a smile.

"I don't know if it's good or bad."

"Oh?" Zhao Qi smiled, "It is of course good to get the 16th sister's eyes. Let me see."

He looked at the side without any hesitation. He took the article and read it. After reading a few lines, Zhao Qi's face was covered with a layer of haze. Deng Su stood beside the emperor, and without any intention, he could see clearly the beginning of the article, and he immediately understood. Cao Liangshi posted a post for Zhao Xingde. As soon as this article was released, Chen Dong, Wu Zilong, Deng Su and others obtained a copy at the same time. Deng Su himself was extremely concerned about the Shuzhou case, and Zhao Xingde's post could almost recite the words and sentences in the post. Thinking of this, his eyes fell inadvertently by the Sixteenth Princess.

At this moment, I suddenly heard an angry shout: "The world of Song Dynasty is bright and bright, and I am so arrogant and unscrupulous?"

While cursing, Zhao Qi handed the post to Deng Su and asked sternly: "Deng Aiqing, is the fact that the post said? "He is born with intelligence and is also a person who reads the books of sages. The accused officials of prefectures and counties on the post were accused of being flirting with each other and covering the sky with one hand, which aroused the resentment of being set up by civil servants like clay puppets, which made the emperor really angry.

"Your Majesty," Deng Su took the post and took a look and then folded it. "I have heard of this case in Shuzhou, not only that. Since the Central Plains turmoil, the court has been in chaos. The herds and guards in various places have formed party members for personal gain, and the generals have respect for the people, and even the disabled people have shown their strength. The court has been detained by the situation of weak and strong branches and cannot make things right. The case in Shuzhou was not big, but it aroused the righteous indignation of the gentlemen of the whole country. Deng Su shook his head and sighed, "This matter involves a lot, and the impact is not only on our court. Chen Chong, the Crown Prince of Xia, also accused our court of not treating the people well. His post was also widely circulated, which really fascinated people. If the court indulged in these local chaos, it may have people's hearts."

"What did you say?" Zhao Qi became even more annoyed and said angrily, "Even the Prince of Xia knew about it, I didn't know it yet. If the Sixteenth Sister had not told me about this today, would my dear friend always keep me in the dark? Emperor Taizong of Tang once said that using people as a mirror can you know the gains and losses? I was locked in this deep palace, without any ears and ears, and without any wise ministers who gave advice, was it my failure to be the king? You..."

"Emperor Brother." Zhao Huan persuaded him worriedly, and Zhao Qi stopped talking and still looked at Deng Su angrily.

"I am guilty of not submitting this matter in time." Deng Su's accusation was very calm. "However, as the Minister of Rites, my duty is to educate the people and enable people to restrain themselves and restore rituals, not to distinguish the right and wrong of a case." He took out a stack of memorials from his sleeve and presented it. "In addition to the Shuzhou case, there are many cases of military officials committing corruption in private and fraud in the military, which have been posted by students in various places in recent days. I also sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to verify the contents of these posts. The contents of these posts are not far from the facts."

Zhao Qi took Deng Su's memorial in a slight doubt. Deng Su looked at his nose and his nose and his heart were waiting quietly. After he took office, almost all his subordinates were Wu Zilong's confidants. In order to prevent him from cultivating private individuals in the Ministry of Rites, the personnel changes of the Ministry of Rites had to be approved by the Ministry of Personnel. When there were conflicts between the two ministries, Chen Dong would basically favor the Ministry of Personnel. However, Deng Su mobilized people to find out all kinds of corrupt and abuse of power and improper customs, which was in line with the power of the Ministry of Rites and was supported by other officials of the Ministry of Rites. He himself was very diligent. In addition, Shuzhou caused an uproar, and students from all over the country published posts to expose the ugly things in the officialdom. Therefore, the Ministry of Rites only took a very short time to organize the most outrageous bad deeds into a book. Deng Su brought this book to meet Zhao Qi, which was also of another intention.

As Zhao Qi looked at it, his eyes became sharp, and his hand holding the memorial began to tremble, and he said angrily: "These, these, these, these shameless people who have formed cliques and private affairs, dare to confuse the black and white, and want to eat and eat my people! I want, I want, I want to take them," although he was angry, but he couldn't say how he could do these "treacherous ministers"? As a king, he was played with by his ministers in his palms. How could he punish others? His emotions turned sharply from anger to decadence, and a huge sorrow surged into Zhao Qi's heart, and he sighed sadly, "I am willing to kill thieves, but I am powerless to eliminate traitors. Being a king is rare in ancient and modern times." He gave the memorial back to Deng Su, looking like he was more sad than death.

"Your Majesty must not underestimate yourself," Deng Su said in a deep voice. "The current situation is also a good opportunity for Your Majesty to make trouble."

"Good opportunity?" A trace of hope flashed in Zhao Qi's eyes, "What does Deng Qing mean?"

Deng Su did not answer. After Zhao Huanjian stepped back, he said, "Your Majesty, the chaos in the court is now caused by the disorder of the court. The so-called "reality of the king" and the "school recommendation" system, even Huangzhoushan said it roughly. The Ezhou system was only hastily followed, and the system was hasty, so there was today's chaos. I have watched hundreds of posts about Shuzhou, and the most mentioned sentence was that "the prince violated the law and was the same as the common people." At this point, Deng Su stopped.

Zhao Qi nodded. Although he did not agree with this sentence, he did not feel much disgusted.

Deng Su nodded and continued, "If Your Majesty uses the emperor's respect and issued an edict to the world that all our people in the Song Dynasty are under the law. A prince should commit crimes with the common people, not to mention that everyone should abide by the rules of the court, such as prime ministers, prefectures, counties, generals, academics, gentry, etc., should abide by the rules of the court. In this way, the people in the world will praise Your Majesty for your wiseness. Our dynasty is the most important title of righteousness and reputation. Your Majesty takes advantage of the power to set rules for the ministers in the court. If Chen Dong and others submit, they can be prepared for the court's principles. If the ministers domineeringly do not submit, the title of righteousness will also fall into Your Majesty's hands."
