My country is dead again [Rebirth]

The matter of Du Ruo was re-discussed after going to court the next day. Xie Ruzhuo simply proposed that Du Ruo should go to Beijing as an imperial envoy to investigate the guards and make meritorious deeds. .

Sun Bingde really didn't want to, and said in a deep voice: "If Du has no real position in the court and has made a big mistake this time, how can he take on this important task?"

"Since when is the crown prince's teacher in vain?" Xie Ruzhuo smiled kindly, but his gaze rivaled Sun Bingde's gaze like a knife's edge, "There are many discrepancies between the impeachment of the official and Du Ruo's self-report. It is not impossible to reveal the truth, let Dali Temple arrest Du Ruo, or simply ask Jin Yiwei to arrest him and take him to prison. If Du Ruo refuses to admit to death, should I also arrest Chen Zhang and torture him? Weng, this matter is for everyone to save face, and it would be meaningless to find out the truth."

Xie Ruzhuo said this very bluntly, because he made up his mind to swear no compromise with the cabinet on this matter, so Sun Bingde stopped pretending, looked coldly, and said: "The minister wants to ask, Your Majesty intends to let How will Du Ruo track down the guards?"

"Naturally, you can do whatever you want to investigate. You have to find out and investigate all these things, such as eating empty pay, filling your own pockets, and fooling the court." Xie Ruzhuo replied lightly, "It's one thing to be merciful, but it's not easy to be merciful." There are too many, what's the use of checking?"

The emperor insinuated their cabinet's careful thinking, and Sun Bingde said with a gloomy face: "The guard army is deeply entrenched. If Du Ruo is a Hanlin official who has not entered the Sixth Ministry, His Majesty is sure that he can control those people?"

"You don't trust the students that Yuan Weng himself taught?" Xie Ruzhuo laughed, "And I didn't say that I would send Jin Yiwei to go with him. With Jin Yiwei in charge, it will be much easier to investigate."

Seeing Sun Bingde's posture of fighting himself to the end today, Xie Ruzhuo picked up a memorial from the table, and said: "This is the memorial of Song Qingge, the commander-in-chief of Wanyang, who asked the court to thoroughly investigate the Suifang Guardhouse a few months ago. At that time, the cabinet also looked at it, and I have been staying in the middle, and now it is considered an old matter, and it is time to agree to what Song Zongbing said."

Sun Bingde's eyes darkened a bit. After so many days of discussions in the court, the investigation of the guards had become another contest between the emperor and the civil officials in the capital. At most, there would be another Pei family involved in it, but the emperor suddenly When mentioning Song Qingge, on the surface it seems to be selling Song Qingge's face, but in fact it means pulling Song Qingge into trouble.

But what is the reason for doing so?

Pulling His Excellency Song Qing's water seems to be of no benefit to the emperor, but it may be an opportunity for their civil servants.

There must be a monster if something goes wrong. Sun Bingde did not continue to mention Song Qingge's name, but still held on to Du Ruo's matter, saying: "Since your Majesty has the intention to investigate thoroughly, you should treat it with more caution. It is most appropriate to send six officials to go, please. Your Majesty, think twice."

Xie Ruzhuo threw out Song Qingge, which was a move that only he knew. Sun Bingde ignored it vigilantly, and he didn't continue talking. Seeing this, he took a step back and said, "It's better to check the effect for the first time. I will ask Du Ruo to go to Weishanwei to try to investigate first. If Du Ruo handles it properly, he will be able to support the matter. I will let him go to other places to investigate. If it is not handled properly, I will discuss with Yuan Weng to replace him , how are you?"

Although Weishan is close to Wanyang, it is really Pei Yuankai's territory. Xie Ruzhuo chose such a difficult bone for the first time to test the water. Xie Ruzhuo has already taken a step back, which is considered to be enough face.

The rest of the cabinet members have relaxed their attitudes and looked at Sun Bingde tentatively, waiting for his decision.

"I hope Your Majesty understands that it is extremely risky to attack Pei Yuankai's territory first, so don't make him jump over the wall." Sun Bingde lowered his eyes slightly, and there seemed to be a fleeting sigh in his eyes, "Since Your Majesty wants Du Ruo to do sinners, Then you have to be able to keep him."

Xie Ruzhuo secretly smiled calmly, after all, Sun Bingde has not lost his literati heart, he will often give in in a gentlemanly manner when others make concessions, and today's matter is because he is not hard-hearted, he can still be a man to the emperor Gentleman, what's more, facing the student he has taught for ten years, Xie Ruzhuo doesn't believe that he has never softened his heart.

Sun Bingde let go of his mouth, and this matter is considered to be settled. According to the usual practice, whenever the imperial court wants to send imperial envoys to the local area, they usually have one article and one military. Strictly speaking, Jin Yiwei can only be counted as assistance, so Xie Ruzhuo It is proposed to pick someone from the five-army governor's mansion to go with Du Ruo.

The governor's office of the five armies is a false position. To be comparable to Du Ruo's position, and the emperor himself can trust it, everyone can figure out who it should be by thinking about it with their feet.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, Xie Ruzhuo decreed that Du Ruo, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, and Shen Ci, a veteran of the Dudufu of the Five Armies, would be imperial envoys of the imperial court, and together with Song Qinglai, a thousand households of Fusi Qianhu in Jinyiwei North Town, went to Weishan to check the register of military households and the account books of the guards.

The three of them were people whom Xie Ruzhuo trusted completely, and Du Ruo knew the proper way to do things on this trip, and could take charge of the overall situation, Xie Ruzhuo didn't have anything special to say, so the three of them packed their bags and left Beijing two days later.

After leaving Lezhou and seeing off at Shili Pavilion outside the city, Shen Ci and Song Qing took a look at Du Ruo, then rode their horses back to a polite distance where they could not hear the voices in the pavilion, and waited quietly.

Sitting in the pavilion were Sun Bingde and Chen Zhang, who had obviously been waiting for a while, Du Ruo was silent for a while, got off his horse, and walked forward slowly.

After the accident, Du Ruo had never seen Sun Bingde again, and today was the first time. These days, he repeatedly thought about what to say when the two of them met, whether to ask questions in disappointment, or to cut off their friendship indifferently.

But when he really stood in front of the teacher, he couldn't think of what to say for a while, and after several times he hesitated to speak, there was only a long silence, and finally he greeted him first.

"Fangzhou, you must hate me?" Sun Bingde was wearing a plain cloak, with silver frost on his temples, and his body was even thinner. He stood quietly in the pavilion, looking at the empty official road, "You You should hate me, I did create this situation to frame you, if you want to ask this, I have nothing to say."

Du Ruo closed his eyes, and there was an uncomfortable astringency in his throat. He had forgotten all the emotions he had thought about these days. There was a deep sense of sadness in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "The students don't hate the teacher. Ten years of teaching, it is the teacher who taught me." Give students all the knowledge they should know, teach them how to gain a foothold in the court, how to be a good minister, the students today are taught by the teacher. When the first emperor was there, the teacher sheltered the students for several years, away from court disputes, When Pingdu fell, it was also the time when the teacher sent people to protect the students well, so that the students could follow the north and have a chance to show their ambitions. These things are far more worth remembering in the hearts of the students than the framed things. From the time of the accident to today, the students have never had Even the slightest bit of hatred, even the students standing here still respect the teacher."

Seeing that Sun Bingde closed his eyes and remained silent, like him, there were many things he wanted to say but it was inappropriate to say them again, Du Ruo smiled softly and said: "And the student guessed that if His Majesty really punished the crime that day, the teacher must finally intercede for the student ,Is it right?"

Ten years of teachers and students, in many cases they are more like a father and son. Sun Bingde is a strict teacher who will tell him what he can't do and what he shouldn't do. He scolds him when he does something wrong, but he is also a loving father. In the winter, he would gently ask him to add a stove in the house. When he forgot to bring his umbrella on a rainy day, he would scold him for not remembering, and at the same time let the boy take the umbrella and send him home.

And like a student, he will humbly ask the teacher about his reading questions, and he will be apprehensive about being criticized by the teacher for his poor writing. Sometimes he will see the teacher still lighting up the lamp and busy with political affairs when he arrives, and he will gently advise the teacher to go to bed early. I will hold my heart like a child worrying about her parents, and also worry about whether the teacher's health is not good again.

There are not many ten years in life, but they have been together for ten years, how can they give up this friendship so easily?

It was cloudy and windy today, and the big sleeves of Sun Bingde's cloak were blown up, making a sound of hunting. Du Ruo seemed to see endless sadness from his brows, but it was habitually buried deep in his perennially quiet eyes. In the pupil, at that moment, Du Ruo's eyes were moist and hot, and he couldn't bear to look at it.

No matter how much he cherishes this father-son teacher-student friendship, they are still strangers today, from now on, no matter how hard it is to talk about books, no matter how difficult it is... to get along with each other as usual.

"Going out of Lezhou today, what you want to do is your own business." Sun Bingde said slowly, like a long and heavy sigh, "Don't say that you are Sun Huaishou's student in the future. You need to remember ——

You are the prince's teacher and His Majesty's important minister, and have nothing to do with Sun Huaishou. "

The voice fell heavily, it was a teacher's most ruthless resoluteness to a student, and it seemed to be an elder's most profound advice to a junior, Du Ruo's ears buzzed, and finally she couldn't help but shed tears, and knelt down In front of Sun Bingde: "Teacher..."

Sun Bingde shook his head wearily, and said: "Let's go. In the future, except for the court, you don't have to see each other again. How far you can go depends on your luck. How far I can go is also my own destiny. This teacher... ...There is no need to call anymore, I no longer have a student like Du Fangzhou."

Du Ruo clenched his fists and kowtowed to Sun Bingde: "Student thanked the teacher for teaching for many years, teacher... take care of yourself." He stood up, took a step back, and gave another salute, "Please go back, Yuan Weng, I will leave the official .”

"Brother!" Chen Zhang chased out of the pavilion, and hurriedly grabbed Du Ruo, "I..."

Du Ruo opened his hand with a cold face, and said: "Yuan Weng is my teacher, and I have been kind to me, but I don't owe you anything for so many years. When you promise to frame me, don't think about calling me Brother, please do it yourself, our fellowship ends here."

This is the first time Chen Zhang has seen such a cold gaze from Du Ruo's eyes. It is the first time he knows that Du Ruo is also a person who can get angry. sharpness.

like his teacher.

Chen Zhang took a step back, speechless, and suddenly realized that Du Ruo's gentleness was due to his upbringing, but he was by no means a scholar who was willing to be manipulated easily, he wanted to be like his teacher , Become a civil servant in the midst of the situation.

Du Ruo didn't look at him again, he got on his horse and galloped away on the official road. Shen Ci and Song Qinglai nodded politely to Chen Zhang, and they chased up Du Ruo with a dozen guards behind them.

A puff of smoke rose from the horse's hooves, and the backs of the group disappeared. Sun Bingde withdrew his gaze and got into the carriage with Chen Zhang to go back to the city.

The author has something to say: Sun Bingde, the word Huai Shou.

The teacher-student team be (it seems that I shouldn't be so happy...)

Today is 4 World Book Day. Combined with current events, let me recommend some books that can expand historical knowledge that I like very much:

1. Mingyue's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", this book is yyds in my heart. From junior high school to the present, official history can also be very interesting. It is a care for me who can't read academic works.

2. Wu Han's "A Brief History of the Ming Dynasty", as I mentioned before, is more academic than those of the Ming Dynasty, not so interesting, but Mr. Wu Han is very well written, with detailed historical materials, and has his own thinking. You will benefit a lot from reading it.

3. Huang Renyu's "15 Years of Wanli" has been recommended for undergraduates and graduate students. As long as you can read it, you will still have a lot of insights. The author's view of history is worth thinking about. It contains the relationship between morality and law in ancient society Some kind of discussion also impressed me deeply.

4. Shi Jingqian's "The Death of the Wang Family: The Fate of the Little People Behind the Great History", the author's entry point is very good, and the way of telling the story of a little person draws out his own view of history is a writing method that sees the big from the small , there are many local chronicles and historical materials based on Pu Songling's Liaozhai as a basis. Although I personally think Pu Songling's story is more interesting 23333, the author's style of writing is quite unique. .

5. Qu Tongzu's "Chinese Law and Chinese Society", this book is also yyds in my heart. Graduate students need to read it several times. Every time I read it, I can get new insights. I can't help but sigh that it is a master's handwriting.In the last semester’s book report, I took a critical look at Mr. Qu’s research methods. He studied ancient society in a typified way. The interdisciplinary research method of law and sociology is also worthy of recognition, but the vision will have some limitations of the times. , but the value of this book is beyond the times in my opinion, and it is still worth reading today.The content is half-literal and half-white, and it will be a bit tiring to read. Mr. Qu still consulted a large amount of historical facts in the difficult environment of the year. I really admire this academic spirit. The class nature reflected in all aspects of ancient society can also be regarded as From the perspective of popular science, it is an essential book for broadening historical knowledge.

6. "Tokyo Menghualu", the real scene of social life and cultural life in the Northern Song Dynasty unfolds, and the text version of Qingming Riverside Picture is still very interesting.

7. "Jin Ping Mei", the author's writing style is really nothing to say, with Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing as the story, it shows a microcosm of the social life of the Ming Dynasty, and the customs, customs, clothing and objects of the Ming Dynasty are very well written. In detail, it is an opportunity to understand the Ming Dynasty through literary works. (really not a simple xiaohuangshu)

8. Shen Congwen's "Research on Ancient Chinese Costumes" is highly academic, so you have to be patient. You will learn a lot of knowledge after reading it. In fact, it is still a very interesting book.

9. "Six Secret Teachings" and "Guiguzi", if you compare the vernacular translations, it is not difficult to understand. Liu Tao is about the basic knowledge of ancient formations, and Guiguzi is about the analysis of strategies. After reading it, you can still increase your knowledge. I can't help but I lament the wisdom of the ancients is really amazing.

10. "Three Words and Two Pai", the stories are very interesting, the language is vernacular, and there is no dyslexia. Not only can you read the detective storybook, but you can also see the judicial status in the society at that time and the living conditions of the people through it. The author lived in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and the characteristics of the times can still be felt through the text.
