The reward from Hedong did not stir up any disturbance in Bianjing City.
Even the ministers of the old party pretended not to have seen it.
For most people, it would be fine as long as Lu Huiqing does not return to Beijing!
He likes to be in Hedong, so let him be in Hedong.
After this battle, what else can Lu Huiqing do?
The Western Bandit's Zuo Xiang Shen Yong Si, after this battle, would not be able to recover in a few years.
And the two palaces don't like to cause war and trouble.
From now on, there will be no war in Hedong!
No matter how energetic Lu Huiqing is, he can only focus on civil affairs.
Some people are even thinking that after Lu Huiqing's term as strategic envoy is completed, they will find a way to send him to places like Jiangning and Yangzhou.
In the afternoon of this day, a message was sent to the palace.
The court invited officials and Tianzhang Pavilion to wait for Sun Tan to die at home.
The two palaces issued edicts to provide compensation and ordered Si Enyin to be appointed.
On the next day, Zhao Xu's wedding ceremony was held in the palace!
In front of the palace, the commander-in-chief Yanda personally led the imperial dragon commanders as a guard of honor and escorted Zhao Xu's past jingjie from Qingning Palace to the Tianzhang Pavilion.
These banners include Zhao Xu’s past titles such as Zhangwu Army Jiedu Envoy, Taiping Army Jiedu Envoy, Yanzhou Observer Envoy, Yanzhou Governor, etc., as well as his Yan’an County King’s Seal, Hepai, and Honor Guard.
After Zhao Xu came to the throne, these things and titles became his personal belongings and would never be given to ministers again.
Zhao Xu, surrounded by the two palaces, watched the banquet moving ceremony in Tianzhang Pavilion.
Along with the banners painted with dragon and tiger patterns, they were sent to Tianzhang Pavilion.
And was respectfully invited by Yulong Zhuzhi to put it in a small attic in Tianzhang Pavilion.
From then on, it will be hidden forever and will never be used.
In other words, it is out of print.
Zhao Xu looked at it with mixed emotions.
Because he knew that this meant that the process was approaching the stage of offering sacrifices to heaven in the southern suburbs and asking for a posthumous title.
In one month, his father will change from Emperor Daxing to Emperor So-and-so.
From then on, even Zhao Xu had to be addressed by his posthumous title in public.
Father and son will be separated forever!
However, from another perspective, this also represents the stability of Zhao Xu's monarchy.
After Emperor Daxing became Emperor So-and-so, the subjects of the Song Dynasty had only one master - him.
…
Ding Chou (fifteenth) in June of the eighth year of Yuanfeng.
Luoyang Yigao Academy.
Cheng Hao was lying on the hospital bed, his eye sockets were sunken, and his face had lost all color.
He has run out of gas!
But he still looked in the direction of Bianjing, his heart full of reluctance and regret.
"Your Majesty... I am so unlucky that I will not be able to come to the capital to pay homage to you!"
The family members and students who were serving him all shed tears.
Everyone knows that this great literary official in the Song Dynasty is dying.
"Bring "Knowledge of Benevolence"..."
Cheng Hao said to his students.
Therefore, the book "Knowing Benevolence", which Cheng Hao spent his whole life writing, was sent to him.
Cheng Hao touched the cover of the book with trembling hands, and then looked at his brother.
"Uncle Zheng..." He said weakly: "I am going to die... In the future, I can only count on Uncle Zheng to carry forward the vast knowledge of Yi Gao..."
"Take it... to Bianjing and present it to the emperor!" Cheng Hao pushed his book in front of Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi cried and nodded: "I must obey my brother's wish!"
"And..." Cheng Hao struggled and said: "These days, I have been thinking about what book the emperor should read..."
"The emperor is so smart and handsome that few people have seen him since ancient times..."
"Mr. Du Tang, it is impossible to prevent the emperor from coming into contact with Wang Jiefu's new meaning of the Three Classics... It is even more wishful thinking!"
"It's better to block it than to open it up!"
"Rather than the emperor reading it himself in the future and becoming suspicious of the ministers...thinking that the ministers are disloyal..."
"Why don't the ministers fill in the blanks with the gentleman's book first..."
"Bochun... When we arrive in the capital, when the emperor gets older, or when we meet the emperor, we will know that the emperor is really smart and handsome..."
"You will present Mr. Xu Jiang's article to the emperor..."
"Brother..." Cheng Yi became excited.
Mr. Xujiang Li Gou is the source of Wang Anshi’s new legal theory and thoughts.
He is known as the "Wang Jiefu who has not been used in time", and is also called "Wang Anshi in the opposition".
To put it bluntly, without Mr. Xu Jiang’s decades of lectures, the group of talents who are good at financial management and management, and the public opinion foundation laid down by Mr. Xu Jiang, Wang Anshi would have encountered resistance if he wanted to reform. Dozens of times in years, even the Daxing Emperor may not support it.
"It's better than the emperor himself finding the new meaning of the Three Classics and understanding it himself!" Cheng Hao said.
"Moreover...the evils in today's world...how can you and I ignore them?"
Cheng Yi was silent.
Although Er Cheng was theoretician of the old party, they were scholars and better than bureaucrats.
Therefore, they cannot ignore the existing shortcomings in the world.
Their biggest objection to Wang Anshi is that he is eager for quick success, double defeat, and accumulation.
In the beginning, they actually had no objection. It was not until later that the new laws were implemented at a rapid pace, especially after the Green Crops Law and the Market Change Law were promulgated, that they began to oppose fiercely!
Cheng Yi knew it and understood it.
Redundant officials, redundant soldiers, redundant expenses... and the threat of Western bandits and Northern invaders at any time...
If these problems are not solved, the Song Dynasty will always sit in the crater.
After listening to his brother's words, Cheng Yi also started thinking.
Then he understood.
When the emperor faces these problems in the future, he will definitely think of solutions!
If the minister doesn't give the emperor a solution, the emperor will go to Wang Anshi!
"The emperor is smart and handsome..."
"No matter how hard the ministers hide it, they can't hide it!" Cheng Hao said, looking at Cheng Yi seriously: "Besides, how can a minister hide something from his Majesty?"
"This is not something that a Confucian minister can do!"
Last month, the young master gave me the royal medicine and wrote a personal letter of encouragement.
Let Cheng Hao do his best to think and imagine during these sick days...
How to repay, how to teach, how to let him go on the right path.
After all, he was an eight-year-old young master who had already read the Book of Songs, was proficient in its use, and had great respect for filial piety and teaching.
Various other legends also prove that he is not as smart as a child!
Such a monarch cannot and should not be deceived by his ministers.
Anyone who tries to do that will only end up asking for trouble, and even lead things to the place they least want to see - a completely opposite direction!
Cheng Hao has been teaching for so many years and taught so many students.
He knows very well what students, especially smart students, will do once they rebel!
And Mr. Xu Jiang was the one who prescribed the medicine from Cheng Hao.
A theory that is not so radical, but can compete with Wang Anshi's "Three Classics" for nutrition.
If the emperor reads Mr. Xu Jiang's article first.
After the ministers observed and found that the emperor was not impatient or eager for success, they should present the new meanings and characters of the Three Classics to the emperor.
Where it is right, it should be praised.
After all, Wang Jiefu's knowledge is today's most prominent theory, and it was also the favorite theory of Emperor Daxing.
The emperor also regarded himself as a filial son.
Blindly slander, slander and attack Wang Anshi, and even distort Wang Anshi's articles and doctrines regardless of the facts.
How could such a smart emperor be fooled by ministers with just a few words?
Who are you looking down on? ?
Although Cheng Hao was in Yigao Academy, hundreds of miles away from Bianjing, he had also heard about the deeds of those emperors.
So, be realistic!
Praise Wang Anshi for what he is right about, and praise without hesitation!
We must also point out where Wang Anshi is wrong and explain why he is wrong.
This is the only way to avoid making the same mistakes again!
Only in this way can we avoid the tragedy of "future generations mourning but not quitting".
It's just that it's not convenient for Cheng Hao to say these words, and he doesn't have the energy to say them anymore.
His body can no longer hold on!
I can only hope that Cheng Yi can understand it himself!
Cheng Yi listened and lowered his head: "I will obey your brother's orders carefully!"
"Good!" Cheng Hao slowly closed his eyes and said softly: "Knowing justice, etiquette, and trust are all benevolent!"
“Only with sincerity and respect can we be benevolent!”
As he spoke, his closed eyes seemed to see bright sunshine.
That is the sunshine of Bianjing City!
He also seemed to be back when he was young. The person sitting opposite him was smiling at him: "Bochun... how about you come and talk to me about the "Book of Changes" again?"
Cheng Hao laughed: "It's Zihou..."
"Zihou is here to pick me up..."
He looked at the person opposite him. He was dressed in a Confucian robe, elegant and simple, and he was a humble gentleman, as if talking to each other.
He held the book in his hand and smiled warmly.
It's Zhang Zai!
Behind Zhang Zai, people wearing Confucian robes were all smiling at him.
He recognized some of them and were even close friends.
Yichuan Weng Shaoyaofu, Mr. Anding Hu Yizhi, Mr. Lianxi Zhou Maoshi...
There are also many unknown figures.
Cheng Hao looked at those figures and murmured with a smile: "I am also an ordinary person!"
"Before he died, he actually had such unrealistic fantasies!"
As he murmured, those figures disappeared.
The world is indeed as imagined by these Confucian scholars.
All things in heaven and earth are only courtesy, benevolence and righteousness.
Apart from this, ghosts and gods do not exist, and gods and Buddhas do not exist.
Therefore, there is neither the underworld nor the fairy world.
Death is like a lamp going out, only the principles and scriptures can last forever!
Thinking like this, Cheng Hao exhaled his last breath with joy.
Cheng Yilang, minister of Zongzheng Temple and minister, Cheng Hao died.
On his deathbed, he wrote that his younger brother Cheng Yi would take over the post of minister.
Note: Historically, Cheng Hao had conceived an economic idea before entering Beijing, but the history books did not explicitly state this. He only said, "Haoshen is interested in economy," and I blindly guessed that he must have thought of a solution.
When Cheng Yi was with Zhe Zong, he advocated teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and flexible teaching. He often observed Zhe Zong's performance and wrote many times to request that more Zhe Zong's peers be arranged to study and study with him.
From these aspects, Cheng Yi is a qualified educator - of course, he also has his limitations, such as the rigidity and stubbornness of a Confucian and his excessive insistence on Confucian classics and morals.
So he was also the one who supported keeping Zhezong away from gold, silver, jade and luxury goods.
