Chapter 474 Who Did Such a Shameless Thing?
"This rumor spread everywhere. Later, the stewards of those families came, but they all looked at the others and refused to take action... The Cao family is very particular about it. Uncle Cao Guo will take action as soon as he comes, no nonsense... Alang, Such a family has unparalleled loyalty!"
The housekeeper of the Ouyang family was muttering, feeling that in Bianliang City only Uncle Guo's family was loyal, and the others were not good birds.
The people from the Inspection Department pulled a big cart and got Chen Zhong and others into the cart. They didn't know where to take them.
Ouyang Xiu stood outside the door and said: "This matter has a wide range of implications. It is common sense for those people not to be involved. Uncle Guo's house... this place is mostly under the orders of the officials, so don't worry about it."
The housekeeper lamented: "Human love, what comes and goes is the only human relationship. After today...Alang, it's time to see the faces of those people clearly."
Ouyang Xiu nodded, "It's time to see clearly. However, it is human nature to reciprocate. I have lived for a long time and I have already seen clearly. The person who contributed the most to this matter is the person who spreads the rumors behind the scenes. Who do you think he is?"
The housekeeper shook his head, "Alang, there are rumors everywhere, where can I check them?"
Bianliang is a prosperous place, and there are seventy or eighty rumors in the market every day, if not a hundred. Even the Imperial City Department can't check them.
Ouyang Xiu put his hands behind his hands and looked outside. When he saw an old man walking quietly from the side, he smiled and said, "Bao Zheng, don't you dare to meet me? It's ridiculous!"
Lao Bao is here to help, but he is no longer needed here.
"It is easy to break this matter, but no matter what method is used, it will make the matter bigger and easily lead to confrontation. When the party struggle starts again... No matter it is the officials or the ministers, no one wants to see this happen, so they all It won’t move.”
The housekeeper said in confusion: "But this rumor worked."
Ouyang Xiu said with a smile: "Yes! This rumor brought those people out to break the situation like a joke. Most people would not think of such a method. The person behind it is narrow-minded, and there are some..."
And a little shameless.
But the other party's original intention was to help him, so Ouyang Xiu couldn't say that.
He smiled and said: "That man wants to do good things without leaving his name, but I can't pretend to be stupid. Prepare your horse, I will come to your door and be a bad guest."
A big drama has been staged in front of Ouyang Xiu's house. Who is the person spreading the rumors? This is the question that everyone is most concerned about.
So when Ouyang Xiu appeared in Yulin Lane, those people were a little dumbfounded.
Was it Shen An who did it?
Yes, only this person can do such a shameless thing.
But after Ouyang Xiu came to seek medical treatment saying that he was too frightened, the matter became confusing again.
Shen An, an old Chinese medicine doctor, received Ouyang Xiu, and the guests and hosts had friendly greetings in the study.
Then Ouyang Xiu said that he was hungry.
"Those people blocked the front and back doors, and the purchasers in the mansion couldn't get out. If it weren't for your help, my family would have starved to death in the mansion, and I would have become the first prime minister to starve to death in the Song Dynasty..."
Ouyang Xiu looked at Shen An as he spoke. Seeing his confused look, he said, "Don't pretend to be stupid when you are young. How many people have I seen in my life? You can tell this person's character at a glance..."
Old Ouyang was sure that Shen An did it, and felt that only Shen An could use such a shameless method.
Shen An asked cautiously: "Don't you have trouble with your eyesight?"
Ouyang Xiu is highly myopic and color blind, which Shen An has long discovered.
As a highly myopic person, how can you see other people's expressions?
That’s just a rough look.
Ouyang Xiu said angrily: "My eyes were fine before."
Well, Shen An changed the subject: "Then Chen Zhong...it's actually best if you go out. He will never dare to do anything, otherwise countless people will tear him into pieces."
Those people didn't dare to help because Ouyang's repairs were bad, but if Chen Zhong took action...
The Chen family will probably be gone in the future.
Ouyang Xiu sighed: "Back then... when the quarrel was at its worst during the Qingli period, the two sides were on the verge of breaking out. The officials were the first to compromise. Then Fan Wenzheng saw the opportunity and asked to go... Otherwise... do you know how serious the party struggle is?"
"Know."
"you do not know."
Ouyang Xiu smiled bitterly and said: "The officials are all afraid, and Fan Wenzheng is also afraid. If we persist, the split between the government and the opposition is just around the corner. When the time comes... there will be chaos!"
Old Ouyang was lamenting what happened back then, but Shen An felt that he had underestimated her.
I know about party strife better than you do.
As soon as Wang Anshi came forward, the government and the opposition were immediately divided into two factions.
Lao Wang is a hardliner. No matter how many people oppose you, I will just say: Even if there are tens of millions of people, I will go!
Come on, let's have a fight!
At that time, the party struggle was much more intense than during the Qingli period, and people were almost killed... When a white knife goes in, a red knife comes out.
That's why Shen An felt that Wang Anshi's method would not work in the Song Dynasty, at least his methods were not good enough.
Ouyang Xiu sighed for a while, rubbed his stomach and said, "Is there anything to eat?"
After the old people reach a certain age, they will explore some things, eat them when they want, and drink them when they want.
Shen An asked someone to get food. Ouyang Xiu took the opportunity to look at his study, picked up a book and pondered it carefully.
"Is this your miscellaneous studies?"
"right."
Ouyang Xiu's eyesight was not good, so he could only see the book clearly when it was brought to him.
He read for a while, then put down the book and shook his head and said, "I'm old and can't learn anymore."
His words seemed helpless, but Shen An knew it wasn't because of this.
Ouyang Xiu is the leader of the literary world. If he reveals his interest in miscellaneous studies, the matter will be sensational...
But Shen An really wanted to give it a try. If he hooked this old man over, what would happen...
The world is shocked!
Ouyang Xiu seems to be dim-sighted, but he is extremely sensitive to changes in aura.
"What the Song Dynasty wants now is stability. Only when it is stable can it expect anything else. As for innovation, don't do it vigorously and resolutely. It was done vigorously and resolutely back then..."
The result was a rush!
Lao Wang later acted vigorously and resolutely, but the outcome remained the same.
these people……
"I need to learn to cook!"
"What's the meaning?"
Shen An said seriously: "It is said that running a big country is like cooking small dishes, but how many of the people who say this can cook? They don't even know the temperature of the heat, so they talk about cooking small dishes, but the result is not If you are a sandwich, it will be mushy.”
Ouyang Xiu was startled, and then said solemnly: "Yes, that's the truth."
The old man immediately discussed the principles of cooking with Shen An, and after eating a bowl of Shen's noodles, he burped and went home.
Is it Shen An?
Those people couldn't help but feel puzzled when they saw Ouyang Xiu come out with a red face, completely different from his pale face before.
Is this cured? Is it really not a rumor spread by Shen An?
This matter has now become a mess. The powerful people began to figure out the thoughts of the officials. Some people even went to test the Cao family to find out whether it was the officials' orders.
Think about it, Uncle Cao Yi and Cao Guo, what an honest person he is. Let alone hitting someone, even if he steps on an ant to death, he will be sad for a while.
How could such a philanthropic person suddenly go crazy?
Only officials!
…
Zhao Zhen felt that he was wronged, but Queen Cao was shocked.
"...Uncle Guo knocked down Chen Zhong with just one punch, then beat him wildly, and finally hit Chen Zhong's head against the threshold of Ouyang's house. If he hadn't been hugged, Chen Zhong would never have been alive today. Yukiri."
Zhang Baibian's report contained no personal color or warmth, but Ren Shouzhong was dumbfounded.
A certain person had previously regarded his uncle as a fool, and wanted to find an opportunity to step on him in the future.
He is so fierce?
Fortunately, I didn’t dare to put it into practice! otherwise……
Thinking of the pain of having his head knocked against the threshold by Cao Yi, Ren Shouzhong felt that he was lucky today and planned to have a late-night snack to calm down his shock.
Zhao Zhen, on the other hand, was completely shocked.
Is this my brother-in-law?
His eyes softened a little, and he said to the queen: "I remember that Cao Yi was a kind young man who listened to you the most. After you entered the palace, he followed others..."
But bad learning?
After all these brutal methods are used, is this still the brother-in-law I can trust?
The Song Dynasty was quite strict in controlling its relatives, especially the consort, which was a pension position. Once you marry the royal family, you can just enjoy life every day, but don't think about doing anything in politics.
As for the descendants and so on, such as the uncle of the state, the management is strict now, but after Zhao Zongshi came to power, he relaxed a little.
Sister Cao Yu raised her eyebrows and said: "Dalang was very energetic when he was young, and I once taught him swordsmanship. But later when I entered the palace, I let him live in peace and quiet, without any trouble, but these years..."
Being this queen has wronged my brother!
You, a bitch, actually know how to use a sword?
No wonder he likes to come out with a knife and ask who is plotting rebellion.
Zhao Zhen felt uncomfortable, "Can Cao Yi know the art of war?"
Are you preparing to enable him?
Queen Cao's eyes lit up, and she said sadly: "This is the ancestral rule. If it is broken once, future generations will follow the same example, and then the court will be in chaos."
This woman can take the overall situation into consideration, which is what Zhao Zhen appreciates most about her.
It's just that today Chen Zhong was completely disgusted by him. In the end, it was Cao Yi who helped him out, so he should be rewarded.
"Someone's coming."
"His Majesty."
Zhao Zhen stroked his beard and said: "The queen has not been with her family for a long time, so she asked Cao Yi to come into the palace. The two siblings also had a chat and asked him to have a meal in the palace before going back."
Naturally, the queen cannot meet with her family often, otherwise she will be suspected of collusion between inside and outside.
So this is quite a favor.
Empress Cao was pleasantly surprised and said, "Thank you so much, officials."
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I appreciate your straightforwardness. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net If it were anyone else, they would definitely have to deal with it first before agreeing, so why bother!"
He was in a good mood and asked, "Do you know who did this?"
Zhang Baba shook his head and said: "I checked, but I couldn't find that person. The rumors should have started from the edge of the imperial city."
Zhao Zhen said with a black line on his face: "Is it the rumor spread by me?"
Empress Cao smiled and said: "Even if we want to spread rumors, we should let people from the Imperial City Department handle it."
I, the Imperial City Secretary, are just a group of women who spread rumors all day long?
Zhang's face, which had always been cold for eight years, would inevitably change color.
Empress Cao still didn't notice, and said to herself: "Why is this method so shameless? I am thinking about who in the court... Such a shameless person, I seem to be thinking of someone..."
A woman's intuition is better than that of countless detectives!
Although Zhao Zhen does not know this sentence, he is a practitioner.
"who?"
Empress Cao frowned slightly: "Why does it seem like something only Shen An can do?"
