Hidden Phase Debut

Of course: Like his behavior just now, if he was not dead and had miraculous development in the future, people can praise his pride. But what if he was dead? A small impatience would cause chaos, but the courage of an ordinary man... What is important is that he was not dead, and after returning to his hometown through wind and snow, he had another adventure waiting for him. With this, everything that happened later!

This time, Wanyan Aguda replaced his elder brother and the leader of the Jurchen tribe, Wu Yashu, to attend the headfish banquet. The world was the same a few hundred years ago. Whether in the East and West, whether in feudal society or slave society, the eldest son was given priority. For example, Wu Yashu and Aguda. Even if Wu Yashu is honest and weak, Aguda is strong and shrewd, he cannot change the order of their inheritance rights!

The second brother Aguda could only obey his elder brother Wu Yashu. Even if he wanted him to attend the humiliating headfish banquet, he could only obey! But when he returned to his hometown with a burning stomach, he suddenly found that his elder brother was sick! From then on, he was the highest leader of the Wanyan tribe! This was something Wanyan Aguda could never dream of! Because in his family, it was really not easy for him to be the turn of seniority in his family!

In May, with Cai Jing's memorial, the deepest hidden person in the inner palace of the Song Dynasty walked onto the front of history - another eunuch, Liang Shicheng, the hidden prime minister! He whispered: Every time I see this name, I am confused like crazy, why? It's so strange! Why did Liang Qichao, the great saint in the Republic of China, give his talented second son the same name?

The sage Liang didn't know the inside story? It was impossible. He himself wrote "Biography of Wang Jinggong". Even though Wang Anshi's political achievements were discussed, he was a master of the Song Dynasty. The second young master Liang was also elegant and had great academic success. He was the leading archaeologist, an architect master in New China, and his wife Lin Huiyin, the best talent at that time... Then why did he call Liang Sicheng? What a strange thing!

Back in the Song Dynasty, this name was also a headache at that time, and almost made the entire Song Dynasty literary world furious! Eunuch Liang actually claimed that he was the illegitimate son of the great literary master Su Shi!

This is simply a blasphemy of the sacred image! Su Shi is perfect in people's hearts. Not only is he very talented, able to live, loving, able to persevere, but he is also a good man with loyalty. For example, the "Ten Years of Life and Death" written for his first wife moved many generations of ladies to cry, and hated that he was not born in the Song Dynasty and married Su Shi and died early, so that he could be the heroine of this poem. For example, when he turned around and married his first wife's sister, the sister was angry at the time of the Wutai poetry case, burned all his poems and tear them all, and laughed them off... What a big heart! For example, in his later years, he lived with his favorite concubine Chaoyun, who accompanied him to displaced southern Xinjiang and died of illness in a foreign land... Hum? Is this Chaoyun good to Su Shi? There is nothing to prove that Su Shi is great? But he is good, and the one who writes good poems and lyrics is good people!

So Liang Shicheng became the public enemy of the cultural circle at that time! But no one dared to say anything. First of all, because his power was too great, so big that Cai Jing had to flatter him with a smile, and Tong Guan also had to be a conscious person. The two most awesome people inside and outside the palace were all "beautiful sheep" in front of him, who would dare to do what?

Secondly, he was really kind to the people of the Su family. For example, when Su Shi's articles and works were at its peak, no one dared to say justice. Liang Shicheng stood up and knelt in front of Zhao Ji and shouted for justice. "What is the crime of the first minister?" The first minister was the respectful title of his son to his father. He said this in public as his son. Due to his efforts, the Su family's difficult life began to change. When Su Shi's youngest son Su Guo was in the capital, Liang Shicheng said to the court treasury officials, "Su Xueshi paid less than 10,000 yuan and he did not have to report it." Brothers could not do this, right?

Liang Shicheng is such a complicated person. He must be cruel, because he is the most powerful eunuch in this era! He intimidates the world and makes trouble for the world. But he has enough humanity to do things that make decent people feel sympathetic. Why is this happening? This starts with his power path. His ability and position also contain two completely opposite attributes, namely good and evil...

It is necessary to recount their upgrade path from the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty to Liang Shicheng's generation. At the beginning, they were nothing, just the cleaning staff in the palace, and the number was very small, which was about 50 people...

Under Zhao Kuangyin's strict management, their lives were very dark, and the glory of the old predecessors of the Han and Tang dynasties could not be imagined...

During the Zhao Guangyi period, the eunuch Wang Ji'en suddenly appeared. He created the "sound of axes and candle shadows" twice and successfully established Zhao Guangyi the other time. The latter time he wanted to establish Zhao Yuanzuo but met Lu Duan, and failed. In addition, he pacified the Li Shun Uprising and entered Sichuan, which made the blood flowing...

After that, the good days for the eunuchs came. Zhao Heng's body collapsed, his wife Liu E took advantage of the loopholes and gained the highest power, and the eunuchs also rose. Even if Liu E was in charge of the situation, they became taller. By the time of Renzong, there were some outstanding figures such as Zhang Maoze who could have the emperor run out of the palace with disheveled hair and asked all officials for help when he was sick, saying that the eunuch wanted to harm him...

The power of eunuchs in the British and God dynasties has steadily increased. In terms of military generals, Li Xian has a transcendent position in the Northwest Army. In terms of literary affairs, Wang Anshi, a famous prime minister, was ruined by eunuchs at the gate of the palace, which can be said to be very majestic...

But it is still within the controllable range. The real loss of control was during the period of Empress Dowager Gao, the "Female Yao and Shun". This was the second female leader in Song Dynasty. Imperial power was sometimes like chastity. When the first time was bullied, there were many sympathizers and supporters. By the second and third times, no matter what the person involved was, the bystanders became bored and numb. The second time the Empress Dowager Gao was the third time to look at the Empress Dowager. During this period, the ministers dared to face the back and butt against the emperor in the court, and only told the empress dowager when reporting work, and ignored the emperor's face. What kind of situation is this? Even the eunuchs are lawless...

Chen Yan and others appeared, who dared to tamper with the imperial edict in the gap where Empress Dowager Gao was seriously ill and not dead. Song Zhezong failed to take power and became the mastermind behind the scenes. When the eunuchs did this, they had already vaguely seen the eunuch community in the late Tang Dynasty. However, Chen Yan died miserably, but he pointed out the way for his descendants - eunuchs must be like this! As a eunuch in the Song Dynasty, it was not just about leading troops to fight and cutting blood!

And Liang Shicheng is the most glorious person on this road!

It takes a special mind to go this path. You must know that eunuchs are always parasites of imperial power. If you want to secretly control the overall situation when the emperor is alive or even healthy, and be the mastermind behind the huge empire. What a big proposition? To solve it, even the eunuch community who randomly manipulates the emperor's life and death replacement can't be done by the late Tang Dynasty!

Because those eunuchs only increase the power of eunuchs based on their predecessors, they only maintain their achievements! Only the first generation of eunuchs who created the situation can solve this seemingly unsolvable problem! Liang Shicheng was the first generation. If he wanted to take the sir in the fire, the first thing he had to do was analyze. He had to analyze the special hobbies of the new emperor and to count on his own preferences, so that he could have his living space. You should know that when Song Zhezong died, he was still an unknown junior...

History has proved that his wisdom is on the same level as Tong Guan and Cai Jing. Tong, Cai thought of everything, and when he operated, the direction he chose was stronger than Tong, and Cai people! Just like someone used coal to burn fire, he could get warmth. Some people used coal to carve, but got artworks.

Tong Guan analyzed that Zhao Ji liked calligraphy, painting, painting, painting, feathers and antiques, so he temporarily put down his foundation as an armed eunuch, and left the army to go to the distant and unfamiliar Jiangnan Hangzhou to find artistic treasures for Zhao Ji. Cai Jing by chance, he helped Tong Guan and fulfill himself with his own talent. Liang Shicheng went to the top, and he wanted to be the mastermind behind the scenes and control the overall situation. Then the battlefield was always in the capital, and even in the palace. He could not leave here, and stood out from this most confidential and harshest part of the world to achieve his goal. He could not leave Kaifeng! He could not!

Liang Shicheng collected a large number of famous calligraphy and paintings in his private residence. Afterwards, he used various relationships to invite handsome and famous scholars from all over the world to review and appreciate them. He hid in the dark and listened to him. Any famous scholar with superb knowledge that could resonate with him became his prey. One after another, he collected a lot, and he was very attentive to do this work. Because this is his team, his capital is the most basic element for him to get close to Zhao Ji and become the mastermind behind the scenes.

With the team, Liang Shicheng became more low-key. When he appeared in the palace, he was like a breeze. It not only made people feel refreshed, but also brought a kind of elegant connotation that other eunuchs did not have.

The reason for this is that he is knowledgeable. When other eunuchs around him danced guns and rods, opened their own lines and kept marching, and prepared for war in the northwest, he focused on books. Even if he never entered the imperial examination and became a court official, he still read a lot of books.

Books gave him a different charm and opportunity, and Zhao Ji noticed him. The emperor was lonely. He walked out of the palace gate and came to the court with ministers. These ministers were educated and could play with him. For example, Cai Jing, no matter which one is a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, both of them have a common language. But what about returning to the palace? They are all Yin and Yang people who show off their power, and they are inconsistent. In the long run, how can Zhao Ji's yumpi life be perfect? ​​Liang Shicheng added this gap!

He first showed a little literary talent, which made Zhao Ji a little curious. Gradually, he showed more, Zhao Ji upgraded him to a doll and took him around the imperial city to chat at any time. After a longer period of time, Zhao Ji found that the eunuch's foundation could not be found out. He was not only a little literary, but even the state's decrees could not defeat him?

This is very rare. Taking the ministers outside as an example, the training process is very long. First, it is basic education, starting from learning the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, to successfully becoming court officials in the imperial examination. This is just the beginning. Then you have to accept the standardized study of civil servants before you can take over the specific work. Taking writing memorials as an example, in terms of format and content, it is completely different from the imperial examination!

A eunuch actually learned without a teacher. With this ability? It was such a surprise! Zhao Ji realized that this was a god-given opportunity to let him jump out of the sea of ​​literary and films and rush into the art garden to travel with all his heart. Think about it so perfectly: a eunuch can approve memorials and write replies according to his wishes, write fast and good, only benefits, no harm at all? What danger can there be? The family rules of the ancestors of the Song Dynasty were the most perfect and meticulous in all dynasties, and Zhao Ji himself was young and healthy. No matter what point he calculated, this eunuch was just a human typewriter!

But Zhao Ji miscalculated this time! Liang Shicheng would copy a few more copybooks every day after work until he kept trying to excel, and to the point of making fakes and real things! The copybooks were Zhao Ji's thin gold-style imperial pen!

The Song Dynasty was in chaos at the fundamental point! The emperor's imperial edict was actually faked! Think about it: In this way, how many state decrees have become Liang Shicheng's personal will? He almost didn't need criminal accomplices, but he had the power to be on par with the country!

Seeing this, many people will frown: The Song Dynasty's governmental orders are stacked layer by layer and restrain each other, especially the imperial edicts and imperial pens were the most attentive thing that Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Pu were at that time, and they were guarding against someone cheating or the king was foolish! Just like the generation of an imperial edict.

First, the priests in the Secretariat made judgments on the matter reported below and wrote a draft to the emperor. After the emperor approved it, the handling opinions were returned to the priests. The priests made a conclusion in their collaborative discussion, and then handed them over to the Hanlin Bachelor or Zhizhi's imperial edict to write it into official documents. During this period, for example, if the Hanlin Bachelor and Zhizhi felt that there was something wrong with Zhizhi's imperial edict, they still had the right to reject it and refused to write it!

Such a rigorous process is the most perfect in all dynasties. A mere eunuch dares to make trouble? It is purely seeking death! And the imperial edict was not written by the emperor at all. Even if the eunuch wants to make trouble, he has no way to start.

Haha! Speaking of this, I have to say: This is thanks to the new party. To be honest, some of the government orders of Xining’s reform cannot be promulgated. Hanlin scholars and imperial edicts are all old parties. Every government order issued by the above is a new law. Each one makes them angry. They are even asked to write and promulgate? Go to the death! Without exception, all the items are rejected! After many times, Wang Anshi became popular! Before the new two-system official was selected, the government orders were released directly and bypassed this level!

As a result, both pros and cons have occurred, reform has accelerated, and a strict system has been broken. Since then, there have always been people who use various excuses to not adhere to principles and make small moves in the process. But overall, no one dares to make large-scale fraud...

The reason why Liang Shicheng became prosperous was that he was still benefiting from Cai Jing's glory...

As mentioned earlier: Cai Jing used the Lecture and Discussion Department to monopolize all national operations, and the original functional departments were paralyzed. How can various regulations and systems survive alone?

Liang Shicheng was determined, and he had good luck, and he happened to hit this once-in-a-lifetime crack. Who would suddenly have a nerve attack and grabbed Zhang Xianzhi and ran to the emperor, "Your Majesty, did you write this by yourself?" He was so angry that he was too old?

Eunuch Liang held the imperial pen in his hand and issued the highest national order at any time. With this one in hand, he was simply invincible in his eyes! The one he cut the most was personnel appointments and dismissals.

Whoever is promoted or dismisses him. This is exactly the authority of the two-system official, and it is the most frequent occurrence of imperial pens, and this is exactly the lifeblood of officials! Whoever doesn’t want to be promoted? Whoever has to ask for eunuch Liang!

Liang Shicheng firmly grasped the lifeline of all officials... Hum? I admit: This is indeed a bit evil? But that's it! History always makes a joke repeatedly: At the end of every feudal dynasty, the lifeline of all officials was firmly grasped by some Yin and Yang people who lost their lifeline...

So, Liang Shicheng controlled the officialdom. After controlling it for a long time, he felt monotonous, so he began to attack the imperial examination. The imperial examination was proud of the scholars and officials, and it was the emperor's supreme method to win over the heroes of the world. Now it has been transferred to Liang Shicheng and became his confidant quick class...
