[Quick Transmigration] Heard I'm a bad woman!

Chapter 490 Song: Empress Shengquan

"Being humbled for a long time, I'm afraid I even forgot how to be a human being!"

Compared to Zhao Xiao's anger, Yan Ying seemed nothing.She told Gong'e to take care of the newly born twin sister Hua, and then persuaded Zhao Xiao not to be too angry.

"We are human after all, how can a human be angry with a dog?"

"Mother, I know what you mean. It's just that I'm still extremely depressed. It's clear that I won the Song Dynasty, so why do I still have to offer gold and silver to beauties? Isn't this what Li Yuanhao should do?"

"Then we have to ask the official who said such words, whether his heart is towards the Song Dynasty or a foreign country." Yan Ying reached out and poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Zhao Xiao.Then he said. "The queen mother knows that you are angry, but it is not worth being angry for these incompetent barking dogs."

"Calm down, take a good look and see which officials of the Song Dynasty are useful and which are not. Even if you are still the crown prince, you must understand clearly, so as to ensure that you will not be fooled like your father."

The reason why the Great Song Dynasty did not decline in the hands of Zhao Zhen was entirely because the famous officials and generals in the Northern Song Dynasty were all concentrated in the period when Song Renzong Zhao Zhen was in power.Zhao Zhen ascended the throne in the first year of Tiansheng (1023 AD), and passed away in the eighth year of Jiayou (1063 AD).

During his 40 years in power, history books commented on him as being lenient and benevolent in government and encouraging change.

This kind of evaluation is actually very powerful. Like Song Yingzong and Song Shenzong, military and political reforms are also mentioned in history books, and the most prominent thing about Zhao Zhen is his political tolerance.The environment of the Great Song Dynasty originally valued civil affairs over military affairs, and treated civil officials extremely kindly.

No matter how lenient the government is, everyone feels that the cost of making mistakes is too low, and the worst result is that the civil servants who are dismissed from office are not tossing hard.

Still the same sentence, fortunately, the famous officials and generals in the Northern Song Dynasty were all concentrated in the reign of Song Renzong and Zhao Zhen. Wen had Bao Zheng, Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi, Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo, Zhang Fangping, and Wu You Di Qing, Famous generals such as Yang Jiajiang and Zhong Jiajiang, even if Xixia violated the border from time to time, and the Liao Kingdom was eyeing them, they could not prevent the economy of the Song Dynasty from becoming more and more prosperous, and capitalism began to sprout.

Fortunately, the economy of the Song Dynasty was far more developed than any dynasty in history. Even if the Song Dynasty emphasized culture over military affairs and its national power was weak, it perished without being passed on to the second or third generation. During the reign of the villainous emperor, Wanyan I of the Jurchen clan rose strongly, and the Jingkang disaster broke out. The Song Dynasty, no no no, the Northern Song Dynasty perished, and then the Southern Song Dynasty was established, and a new round of drunken life and death began, emphasizing literature over martial arts policy of governing the country.

It can only be said that Zhao Xiao has to rely on his own strength to eliminate the unhealthy atmosphere in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, break the ancestral rules of emphasizing civility over military affairs, and serve as far as possible.

Fortunately, there is a very powerful mother.Just because Yan Ying said that, it doesn't mean that she won't help Zhao Xiao and act like a god.In fact, Yan Ying has already considered whether to make Zhao Zhen sick for a long time.

Zhao Zhen is benevolent and benevolent. As far as civil and military officials are concerned, he is a benevolent monarch. However, with the Liao Kingdom before and Xixia and other countries eyeing him, Zhao Zhen is actually not suitable to sit in the position of emperor.

His generosity and kindness did more harm than good.At least Yan Ying thinks so, the enemy is strong, the lord is kind, and there are a bunch of civil servants who are in the heart of the Song Dynasty but not in the Song Dynasty.

Yan Ying was also angry with some civil servants for bowing their knees. It was Xi Xia who was asking for peace, but it seemed like Song Dynasty was asking for peace.

It can be said that the anger in Yan Ying's heart is no less than that of Zhao Xiao.

"Go and greet your father later, he has been ill for so long and he is not getting better." Yan Ying said pretending to be distressed: "There is another war with Xi Xia, which makes your father unable to recuperate at ease."

Zhao Xiao rolled his eyes: "He hasn't recovered for a long time, isn't it because he doesn't know how to restrain himself when he is sick, so he still wants to go to the harem to broadcast rain and dew?"

"The Miao family from Huining Palace is here again!" Zhao Xiao paused, and then said: "The queen mother doesn't care, listen to her tone, dream day in her arms, why does she feel that this child is a son. "

—Don't tell me, she's really pregnant with a son!

——It’s just that he only lived two and a half years before he died.

Yan Ying's eyes flashed, but she remained steady, and had no intention of doing anything to the pregnant woman, although Zhao Xin, the future third son, hated it.

"Okay, what do you mean by caring about Lao Tzu's harem as a son?" Yan Ying said something to Zhao Xiao, and then said, "It's enough to worry about government affairs. I really think that the mother's queen looks dignified and majestic now, so it's true." Very bullying?"

Zhao Xiao: "I know that my mother is powerful, I mean nothing else when I say this, it's just... that's all, it's quite interesting to see Mrs. Miao jumping around like a fool."

Yan Ying: "That's it."

"Indeed. The queen mother is absolutely right."

Zhao Xiao paused, took the tea from Yan Ying and handed him another, took a few sips, then left and went to Funing Palace to visit Zhao Zhen who was ill and didn't know how to be safe, which led to the loss of kidney water and his health was even worse.

When I went, Zhao Zhen had just woken up and was painting under the service of the servant.As soon as Zhao Xiao came, Zhao Zhen was very happy to let Zhao Xiao appreciate his masterpiece.

The emperors of the Song Dynasty were all quite literary.But in terms of literary literacy, Song Huizong is still the highest.Zhao Zhen, barely, can be called a top-notch calligrapher and painter.

Zhao Xiao only glanced at it, then decisively withdrew his gaze.

"It's pretty good-looking." Zhao Xiao praised.

Zhao Zhen laughed out loud, apparently very happy that his son, who had learned a lot but was barely good at painting and calligraphy, could feel that his paintings were good.

"The prince is here, but for political affairs?" Zhao Zhen put down his pen and asked kindly.

Zhao Xiao nodded, and said again: "Come to visit the father by the way. The father's health is much better, can he go to the morning court to handle government affairs?"

Perhaps because of this period of time, Zhao Zhen's life has been quite comfortable.So Zhao Zhen didn't pay much attention to intervening in government affairs and taking back his authority.Hearing Zhao Xiao asking when he could come back to handle government affairs, Zhao Zhen showed hesitation.

"The prince handled it very well, and the emperor is very relieved."

Zhao Xiao: "...Father has been tired recently?"

Zhao Zhen nodded, and said very seriously: "The prince is already twelve (virtual), and he is already weak. There is no need for me to keep an eye on him all the time. A few days ago, I asked Taifu Ouyang, and he said that the prince's homework is very good, but Partial martial arts."

"It's not about martial arts. To be sure, my son is good at both civil and military affairs."

Zhao Xiao corrected Zhao Zhen's statement, and then changed the topic to talk about Xixia's initiative to negotiate peace.

Zhao Xiao explained the matter once, and then asked seriously: "Since the father doesn't plan to take back the power for the time being, can I give the bastard with weak knees to..."

Zhao Xiao gangster made a head-cutting gesture in a stern manner.

Zhao Zhen: "..."

"Prince, you can't punish scholar-bureaucrats. This is the ancestral rule and should not be changed easily." Zhao Zhen thought about it, and said: "How about this, if the prince insists on punishing the officials of the Zhuhe faction, I grant you the right to dismiss them from office."

Zhao Xiao is not very satisfied with this result, but after thinking about it, it is already the greatest degree of decentralization.

I had to say: "That's fine. But my father made a mistake. It's not the peace faction, but the capitulation faction! They are just used to surrender, and they are used to spending money to buy peace. Using Da Song's large land and resources as an excuse, send gold and silver to Xixia, so that Xixia can recover as soon as possible, and then attack Da Song."

Zhao Zhen: "..."

"It's not that serious." Zhao Zhen said insincerely, "I think they are just paying attention to 'peace is the most important'."

——God, peace is the most important thing!

—Break into homes like robbers, killing, burning, and looting.好不容易,家园有能人按住强盗暴揍一顿,并要对强盗喊打喊杀的时候,结果先前无能只想着逃跑的家伙,迫不及待的跳出来说,要用无限的爱感化强盗?

——Is this something human can do?

——Returning the master and the peace faction, it is clearly the traitor of Song Dynasty.

Zhao Xiao gritted his teeth secretly in his heart, but on his face, he began to respond to whatever Zhao Zhen said.Anyway, as you said, it goes in the left ear and out the right ear.Furthermore, it is not the same to beheaded and ransacked one by one, dismissed from office and ransacked their homes, and then exiled for three thousand miles.

I understand that punishment is not for scholar-bureaucrats, don't worry, I will handle it well, so that one or two of the weak bones, and one of them will not fall to enjoy the life-to-death package.

Zhao Zhen, who had said a lot of nonsense, didn't know that he was very angry, and was already thinking about how to deal with others. He only smiled gratifiedly, and let Zhao Xiao back down, and continued to paint and cultivate his sentiments.

Zhao Xiao resigned obediently, and then ran to Ninghe Palace to find Yan Ying. The mother and son murmured for a while, and Zhao Xiao returned to the Crown Prince's East Palace when it was getting dark.

Later, under Zhao Zhen's intentional indulgence and Yan Ying's various secret help, General Zhao Xiao couldn't wait to jump out as soon as the Xixia envoy arrived, saying that he would send beauties and gold and silver to the Xixia envoy, so as to make friends with the two centuries-old officials. One counts as one, all dismissed from office and ransacked their homes, and let them go back to their own homes to experience the lifestyle of ordinary people.

Needless to say, most peacemakers and capitulator officials have fat pockets, and just one ransacked their homes, allowing Zhao Xiao to earn Da Song's tax revenue for a year, dare you believe it?Anyway, while Zhao Xiao scolded his mother, he took all the money he got from raiding his home and put it all into army training, and rewarded the sons of the Great Song Dynasty who had won Xixia.

And this incident has hindered the eyes of the civil officials. Even with the support of famous officials such as Bao Zheng, Ouyang Xiu, and Fan Zhongyan, the public opinion is also one-sided. Going down, the officialdom of the Song Dynasty is all in chaos.
