Chapter 791: Successive edicts ordering the world to settle down

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A word of no injustice, although full of helplessness, also brings a bit of relief.  The snow was still falling, and while the people in the capital were sleeping soundly, a crisis that determined the Song Dynasty was disappearing unknowingly.  Ye Yu issued several imperial edicts in succession during his first court meeting after a long illness.  And this first imperial edict was to carry out an iron-blooded purge of the party members who secretly colluded with Chai Shuxia according to the list provided by Chai Yanying.  ¡° Among them are not only the hidden remnants of the Fire Lotus Sect, but also many enemies that Ye Yu has accumulated over the years.  These accumulated enemies can be roughly divided into two groups, namely the bureaucratic aristocrats and members of the royal family who live in temples, and the literary gentry and enemy scum in the world.  Since Ye Yu came to power, many bureaucrats in the court and central government have been repulsive, because these self-proclaimed officials and aristocratic families do not buy into Ye Yu's background.  The aristocratic families have been gradually weakened since the Sui and Tang Dynasties. With the full implementation of the imperial examination system, by the Song Dynasty today, the glory of the aristocratic families has long been gone.  But even so, there will always be hierarchies in any era, so these inherited aristocratic officials still hold contempt for people from poor families.  Because this mentality is deeply ingrained, they have always had a subtle attitude towards Ye Yu's grassroots background.  In addition, since Ye Yu became an official until he ascended the throne as emperor, everything he did was invisibly opposed to their interests, so this undoubtedly laid hidden dangers.  If the imperial court had not experienced wind and waves, the dirt hidden at the bottom of the water would not have been rolled out.  But now Chai Shuxia's huge wave has rolled out the dirt under the water.  And the driving force behind this storm was obviously Ye Yu's intention.  In addition to this uneasy force in both the government and the public, there are also the descendants of the Zhao family in the royal family.  ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of the  But after nearly a hundred years of reproduction in the Southern Song Dynasty, some once unpopular descendants of the Zhao family gradually became powerful.  Under the banner of Zongzheng Temple, this group is quite prestigious among the royal family and can even influence the succession of imperial power. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Today, Ye Yu has become the emperor of the Song Dynasty, but many descendants of the collateral clan are still resistant.  If a family has an issue of succession, there will be endless infighting and intrigues. So when it comes to the ownership of the imperial power of the Song Dynasty, it makes many people even more uncertain!  Ye Yu just took advantage of Chai Shuxia's opportunity to completely deal with this uneasy force in the royal family.  There is a constant undercurrent of power above the temple, and the literary gentry far away in the world are even more arrogant.  Literary giants from various places opposed the new imperial examination promulgated by the imperial court, and under the instigation of Kong Dexian, they even criticized him as the emperor.  Ye Yu had thought of this outcome from the beginning, but had always suffered from the lack of reasonable reasons to rectify it, so he could only put it aside for the time being.  Public opinion in the literary world is more tyrannical and overbearing than rumors.  An article can curse a person to death, a book can also discredit a person, or even confuse right and wrong and make the person infamy for thousands of years!  "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" deceived Zhou Yu and elevated a character as wise as a demon.  "Water Margin" cheated a bunch of people, especially the couple Wu Zhi and Pan Jinlian, causing the Wu and Pan families to be unable to lift their heads for hundreds of years.  "The Generals of the Yang Family" is not wrong in describing loyal ministers and righteous men, but it elevated the Yang family but discredited a group of civil servants and generals. In the end, even Di Qing became a heinous villain.  "The Bao Gong Case" destroyed Chen Shimei and Qin Xianglian, causing the Qin and Chen families to have a feud for many years.  As Ye Yu, who loves classical novels, is well aware of the methods of some unscrupulous literati, he does not want to directly target these people, so he is waiting for a reasonable opportunity.  Now that Chai Shuxia is wooing Kong Dexian and advocating for the virtuous king of Jin, Ye Yu just charges these people with treason and treason!  In addition to this group of literary gentry, there are enemy enemies that Ye Yu has always been worried about.  It is not difficult to destroy a country, but complete suppression and integration cannot be achieved overnight.  The surrender of Xixia and the subsequent fall of the Jin Kingdom seemed to be included in the territory of the Song Dynasty, but these remaining forces that turned light into darkness will inevitably not resurrect.  Especially when Ye Yu is seriously ill and ignores government affairs, Uncle Chai?In addition to the overall power, more importantly, the main forces of the imperial court are not in the rear.  Under such a special environment, whether it is the remnant forces of Xixia and Jin Kingdom, or Xiliao, which has been hit repeatedly, they will emerge one by one and are eager to try.  Either to subvert the Song Dynasty, or to cooperate with Chai Shuxia to pursue their own interests, these are the reasons why they surfaced.  Faced with this situation, no matter how these hidden forces decide, Ye Yu will remain unchanged in response to all changes, because he has already secretly weaved a big net to catch fish.  Now this ending is what Ye Yu is happy to see.  He didn¡¯t want the rising Song Dynasty to sink again because of Chai Shuxia.  On the contrary, because of Chai Shuxia, all the undercurrents and shortcomings hidden in the government and the public can now be solved one by one!  The rest of the decrees issued by Ye Yu mainly focused on disaster relief in the Jianghuai River and the selection of scholars through the imperial examination.  Disaster relief in Jianghuai is a top priority. The so-called disaster caused by natural disasters is related to the people's livelihood of the dynasty, and Ye Yu has to personally intervene.  As for the selection of scholars through the imperial examination, not only did he reject everything that Chai Shuxia had done before, but Ye Yu also advocated holding a grand ceremony to select scholars through the martial arts examination to demonstrate his determination to pursue both civil and military affairs.  As the emperor of a dynasty, he has the power to directly give instructions and draft edicts, and he can also make arbitrary decisions through verbal edicts.  But according to the imperial system, an imperial edict must be written down by the prime minister in a letter, and then submitted to the emperor. If approved by the emperor, he will then issue an imperial edict.  When entering into the imperial edict process, it is usually left to the people of Zhongshushe to draft the imperial edict, then signed by the emperor, and finally signed by the prime minister, and sent to the province for review.  The officials have the right to reject each of these procedures, so it is not an easy task for an imperial edict to be successfully promulgated.  This series of procedures seems cumbersome and complicated, but it is also a cautious attitude in running a huge national institution.  Of course, now Ye Yu acts in a rather arbitrary style, so sometimes he directly issues the highest order without going through cumbersome procedures.  It¡¯s not that Ye Yu intentionally ignored the legal system, he also knew that the disadvantages of doing so were too great, but if some things go through this level of review, the cucumber dishes will not only be cold, but they may even go rancid!  Especially since the Jianghuai natural disaster is imminent, I don¡¯t know how many people will die when the imperial government agencies review and issue the decree.  ¡°There is also the matter of apprehending rebellious parties. If we don¡¯t strike hard with thunderous means and miss the best opportunity, wouldn¡¯t it be like letting the tiger go back to the mountains and causing endless troubles?  ??After repeated orders to leave the palace, the dark clouds dispersed and the sun became clear!  For a time, officials were transferred frequently, but in an orderly and reasonable manner.  The undercurrent of rebellion stained the capital with blood, and all forces were arrested one after another.  A major blood-changing plan has begun.  (The word "jianghu" doesn't need me to explain, right? This "jianghu" is not the martial arts world. I'm really afraid that some readers are blindly calling people names.)
