After rebirth, I made the princes cry

Xie Jin has never been so provoked by a yellow-haired girl.

He glared at Yingshu, forcing Yingshu to respond to his glare. What he felt was the vigor of a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers. He felt a little flustered for no reason. Throwing the tea cup was an act of strong external force. Xie Jin suddenly realized his anger. Because her thoughts were guessed, Wang Lan's granddaughter is indeed courageous.

"Wang Pufei, do you dare to advise your majesty to allow the doctor I requested to enter the Zhaoyang Palace to diagnose my wife's pulse?"

Wang Lan's nickname was "refute", but this epithet was acquired after he became an official. Xie Jin often called him "Zhongjun". Using "refute" to call him "Zhongjun" at this time should raise the suspicion that he was at least a prophet about the Zijiang incident and concealed it. , I am afraid that what is more doubtful is that he is the instigator, and Wang Lan also has troubles that he cannot tell.

God knows he only found out the truth recently.

Moreover, he had guessed the truth. It was impossible for him to directly question His Majesty whether it was Zuzhen who ordered the Queen to poison Concubine Xie, which caused Concubine Xie's infertility. If he had known that it was true... he would have definitely advised His Majesty not to let things slip, and at least to disclose them. The palace official who handled it was silenced.

"Your Majesty trusts Imperial Physician Liu." It was Yingshu who took over the conversation again: "However, Imperial Physician Liu is a foreign minister after all, and even acupuncture and coloring must be performed by a medical woman, and the medical woman's medical skills will naturally be questioned..."

"It happens that I don't have such a prejudice." Xie Jin interrupted Ying Shu: "The disease doctor I want to recommend to my wife is also a medical woman, and she is especially good at women's diseases. What's more coincidental is that she has a student named Shi Ying. We also met several times, and it was Shen Buyi who was a doctor at Si Shou Xian Pharmacy."

Yingshu was startled.

In the case of Du Chang's wife murder, the "little miracle doctor" Shen Buyi told her that Mrs. Du was often beaten, which made her even more suspicious that the deceased was not Fei but Du Chang's first wife. Unexpectedly, she solved the case that happened in the market. His murder case, who came into contact with him, turned out to have been monitored by Xie Jin.

"If the Duke makes this request, Your Majesty will definitely grant it. In fact, Your Majesty also regrets that the wife does not have any biological flesh and blood to support her, and the case of Jiang's son, Your Majesty, even though the wife has not listened to the words of alienation, the Duke will inevitably have suspicions because he is a foreign minister. , since the Duke is willing to seek proof, Your Majesty is also willing to eliminate the resentment between the monarch and his ministers, and if the doctor requested by the Duke can really cure my wife's illness, the royal family will be able to add blood, which will be a blessing to the country."

Xie Jin was no longer polite at this time: "I hope so."

In fact, whether Concubine Xie has any heirs or whether the heirs born to her can be preserved is no longer the focus of Xie Jin. He is very clear that even if there is another eighth prince in the palace, and the eighth prince has Chen Jun Xie as his help, he will probably not be able to reconcile with her. As the adult princes competed, Chenjun Xie was not bound to become the mother clan of the future monarch. Compared with the risk of defeat at the hands of Northern Zhao, she could definitely help the emperor weaken the power of the two surnames He and Zheng, but she must not be foolish. Those who are loyal to the royal family can fail, but they cannot bear the shame of becoming an abandoned son.

The Yu family is a mere commoner, and the Yu family's daughter has no qualifications to be a mother to the world. If the emperor really ordered Queen Yu to poison his daughter, Chen Junxie... then he would rather sit back and watch the princeling and Jiang Donghe fight to the death, no matter who wins Whoever loses will not be able to harm Chen Jun Xie in the slightest.

Wang Lan did not turn around to look at Ying Shu's expression. He knew His Majesty better than Xie Jin.

He knew that even if His Majesty the Emperor really poisoned Mrs. The disaster of the king seizing the throne, at least the prince must be aware of the dangers of allowing one surname to dominate the government and the public. After taking the throne, when the three surnames Xie, He, and Zheng have surrendered to the king's order, the situation in the court will change again, regardless of whether Fan Yanglu's family or not Relying on the expansion of ambitions of his descendants, the prince must have understood that only by balancing the power of the various clans can the imperial power be strengthened.

Only Chen Junxie can restrain Fan Yanglu.

When he did not allow his daughter to be elected to the inner court, it was actually not because he knew that His Majesty had no love for his daughter. The important consideration was that if the daughter of the Wang family in Linyi entered the palace, I am afraid that even the clan members with the surname Wang would also join the palace. He would strive to seize the position of his descendants, which was not conducive to the stability of the current situation. He had already considered the consequences, but in the end he still failed to prevent his brother from raising troops to rebel.

If it weren't for His Majesty's kindness to the Linyi Wang family, the family would have been destroyed.

From that moment on, he truly determined to serve His Majesty loyally.

Xie Jin was conceited, and indeed he had made great contributions to consolidating Dongyu's empire, because Wang Lan was also very considerate of Xie Jin's mood at this time. Not everyone who reads sages' books can achieve sage aspirations. In fact, clan politics are deeply rooted, and he even has a disdain for the royal family. It can be traced back to the late Ji Dynasty, when the Xiahou regime was founded by Emperor Wu because of his heroism. The reason why the Xiahou family was able to dominate and stand on its own was actually indispensable for the support of the powerful families.

The wise ministers trusted by Emperor Wu advised Emperor Wu to kill Emperor Ji and establish himself on his own, not because he was loyal to the Xuan Dynasty, but because he knew that Emperor Wu was far from being able to replace him. The banner of "I will not obey you".

However, the son of Emperor Wu finally abolished Ji and established Luo. Later, Sikong assisted the palace and took the position of Taiwei of Luo Dynasty to force the palace to depose the young emperor. Although it was a formality after taking over the power of Shenzong, it actually continued the rebellion. Sikong During the Auxiliary period, many clans could only obey, but they would not be convinced after all.

The imperial power established by only one generation of overlords was destined to have a weak foundation. Clan politics then officially came into being, and it was indeed the trend of chaos.

The king is not the king, the minister is not the minister, the father is not the father, the son is not the son, this is not a chaotic situation that arises from reality.

Xie Jintong read "Yi", but he was born in a time of great strife, and he was the head of a clan, shouldering the safety, honor and disgrace of thousands of clan members. How could he be completely selfless in his concerns? Wang Lan is now also the head of the clan, so he can understand Xie Jin's concerns.

There is not enough trust established between Xie Jin and the current emperor.

"Bojun, do you know why I supported your majesty in the first place?" Wang Lan asked.

This was a very secret thing. He never thought of telling anyone, except Wang Jie, and it was not him who told it, but Wang Jie realized it. Wang Jie realized it before Wang Zhi rebelled, so he insisted on telling it. Wang Jie stayed in Jiankang. He looked at Wang Jie as if he had recovered all his long-lasting memories. He had many ideas, but was not good at expressing them. He felt that he was out of tune with all his family members. He did not tell his grandfather until his death. The future of him, King Langyi, depends on you.

In fact, there is no clear dividing line between the Wang family of Langyi in the past and the Wang family of Linyi today. However, Langyi should not be able to go back during his lifetime. With the change of Langyi to Linyi in the Northern Qi Dynasty, his status has also changed. Changed, the glorious end, he no longer seeks the revival of the surname, what he sees is that if the clan politics does not decline, then China and Kyushu may really not be able to be reborn.

"Zhongjun, please teach me." Xie Jin was already calm.

"The common people were originally nobles, but now they are commoners."

It's such a simple statement.

Xie Jin was at a loss.

"I once had a chat with Mr. Baichuan. Mr. Baichuan said that he would cast a punishment book on a cauldron so that all the people would know the law. However, people at that time refuted it by destroying etiquette and music, but still could not spread the law. This is what the current situation requires. . However, the scriptures and meanings that our noble families know today cannot be used to educate the people. Just like the people in the past, they did not know the laws and orders and only knew how to obey the government. They were disobedient but did not know their sins. They were submissive but did not know they were wronged.

Bojun is a wise man. Do you really think that the government of ignorant people is enough to stabilize the country and govern the world? Admittedly, I do not think that Your Majesty is a powerful monarch today, capable of reforming and overturning innovations, but His Majesty is indeed a benevolent Lord. Think about it, how long has it been since Yu has seen a monarch who has taken good advice? "

"Zhongjun is a close minister..."

"How can Bojun not be a close minister? Didn't Your Majesty, Your Majesty, accept the good talents recommended by Your Majesty for many years when he was upright? Didn't His Majesty, Your Majesty, implement the decrees promoted by Bojun? Your Majesty has been satisfied with it many times during court discussions. Bojun's suggestion refutes the remonstrances of He Ao's followers. Does Bojun really think that Your Majesty just wants to use Bojun's power to suppress He Ao and other clans?

Your Majesty has made a judgment first, accepted good advice, and refuted the fallacy. The rise of Chen Junxie is actually not due to the trend of power. Although Your Majesty is not an overlord, he can distinguish between loyal and traitor, and know the benefits and harms. Even the reason why Your Majesty is Having so much faith in Shirakawa-kun is actually a sign of deep admiration for Shirakawa-kun's insight.

Bojun, have you ever imagined what the world will be like thousands of years from now? "

"What do you say, Shirakawa-kun?"

"There is no distinction between nobles and common people, public education is promoted, and there is no longer even a distinction between monarch and ministers."

Not to mention Xie Jin was shocked, even Ying Shu's eyes widened.

"In fact, some sages have long pointed out that the world is unkind and treats all things as rotten dogs. This is just like whether they are the most noble or the most humble, no one can escape life, old age, illness and death. Just like the vast sea can be turned into mulberry fields, the mulberry fields may once again be dominated by the sea. No, this is natural reincarnation. How can manpower save it? All living beings in the world are blessed by rain and dew. There is no distinction between high and low. It’s just that people today don’t understand this truth. However, people’s wisdom will not always be dull, just like our family. , aren’t we also benefited from Zhu Xing Shu and Guang Jing Zhuan? Our past is just like the current poverty, which comes and goes. I believe that one day there will be a situation where the people do not worship the king and the officials start in poverty. Bo Jun Maybe you don’t believe it, but Your Majesty does.”

This is the general trend.

"Zhongjun, you still want to persuade me to hand over the power of Dazhongzheng." Xie Jin said.

"Your Majesty wants to clean up the Chinese army. If Bojun refuses to give up his power and reach a compromise with Zheng Bei, Your Majesty actually has nothing to do. However, Zheng Bei's compromise does not mean that He Ao will also compromise. However, Your Majesty will never let He Ao dominate the government and the opposition. By then, who do you think Bojun will enjoy?"

"Zheng Bei."

"If His Majesty really intended to reuse Zheng Bei, I would not be visiting today."

Yingshu glanced at her grandfather's back and saw that he was still very old! ! !

"It's not that I can't give up the throne to Cui Yan, but when the Zijiang case broke out, Concubine Zheng was not punished, and of course the Queen will not be implicated. Unlike Zhongjun, I have always been loyal to the Crown Prince. I believe Mr. Zhong can understand his concerns."

Hearing what Xie Jin said, Yingshu couldn't help but sigh. Xie Jin was indeed an "old ginger", and he had expected that His Majesty's original intention was to let Cui Yan become the master of the business. I expected that this time when He Ao attacked him, His Majesty would go along with the situation and let the prince enjoy the advantage of the fishermen. This is not unusual. But compared to Cui Yan, Fan Yanggong is more qualified to succeed as the great general. But Xie Jin was able to accurately identify Cui Yan... He was also well versed in the emperor's mind.

It is true that the two surnames Lu and Cui have been in a relationship of honor and loss for many years. With Wansu being named the crown prince, these two families will inevitably become the prince's loyal ministers. Whether it is Lu Yuan or Cui Yan, among them It is of great benefit to the prince to have one ruler in all official matters. However, in the future, when the prince ascends the throne, only Fan Yanglu will be the queen's own family. Today, the emperor has to consider the hidden dangers of his relatives' power to control the government. Cui Yan is actually used to give the prince a chance to have success in the future. Take advantage of the Cui family's ability to restrict their relatives.

There was an emperor and a courtier. As the situation changed, the honor and loss between the two surnames would also undergo subtle changes. Of course, this also depended on the actual planning of the emperor at that time, and even Ying Shu had to admit that Sikong Beichen's actions were not inappropriate in terms of how to balance the weight of the Lu and Cui clans in the court.

However, Xie Jin did not expect that unexpected changes occurred in the Shuzhou counter-rebellion, which gave His Majesty an excellent opportunity to completely purge the Chinese Army. He Ao's party must relax its vigilance, so as not to defeat His Majesty's plan to purge the Chinese Army for the future imperial power. The most appropriate measure for Datong's plan to lay a firm foundation is to improve the overall strength of the Jiangdong clan. He Ao's party also belongs to the camp of the Jiangdong clan. He Ao has no prestige at all, so that the non-commissioned officers will be convinced and respect him as the great Zhongzheng. Compared with Cui Yanquan, who belonged to the northern aristocratic family group, being in charge of evaluating non-commissioned officers, at least Lu Jing's appointment as Dazhongzheng was more in line with the interests of the Jiangdong clan, and it was not necessarily so beneficial to the East Palace.

Yingshu thought that her grandfather would tell Xie Jin his Majesty's proposal to dispel Xie Jin's concerns.

But she heard her grandfather say: "Today I have brought the sect talisman of the Wang family, and I can give it to Bojun to take care of it."

Yingshu was greatly astonished and raised her head to stare at the back of her grandfather's head.

The clan talisman, the highest honor of a clan, is an official talisman worn by the highest-ranking member of the clan. Generally speaking, the official talisman will be taken back by the court at the time of handover, and it will only be taken back by the court if the person has a high position and passes away. Only those who were still highly respected by the monarch at that time could enjoy the honor of being given a talisman by the king. For example, although many ancestors of the Linyi Wang family had received this honor, only those who founded the "Guangming Hall" The ancestor of the title, Wang Hong, not only worshiped Situ, but was even posthumously named Prime Minister. The emperor was in mourning. Wang Hong's talisman became the sect talisman of the Wang family in Linyi.

The sect talisman is like the emperor's jade seal to a sect and a surname.

In short, holding the clan talisman of the Linyi Wang family, Xie Jin can not only decide to eliminate a certain Wang family's descendants, but can even announce the removal of the title "Guangmingtang", causing great shame and humiliation to the Linyi Wang family.

Wang Lan handed over the sect's talisman to Xie Jin as collateral, which was like handing over the honor and disgrace of the entire family to Xie Jin's control!

Xie Jin took the sect talisman.

"From now on, I, the Xie family of Chen County, will work together with the Wang family of Linyi. The Wang family of Linyi will be loyal to the Lord of Henan, and the Xie family of Chen County will also dare to pay attention to the honor and disgrace of life and death, abandon petty selfishness and follow the general trend. If we ruin today I am not the only one who made the oath to Xie Jin. Generation after generation of Chen Jun Xie’s descendants will break their promise to their ancestors. They will not be able to enter the ancestral temple when they are alive, and they will not be buried in their family tombs when they die! Zhongjun, rest assured that the talisman of your clan to Jin will be kept properly. It will only take ten years. During the period, if Jin dies, the descendants of Jin will kneel down and return it in the future."
