Chapter 71 Pillar Stone

If you want to say the four words "pillar of the country", if only Dan Yi is not enough, no one in this court has enough weight.

He was born as the No. 13 scholar of Jurchen Ci Fu in the [-]th year of Dading, and he is proficient in Khitan large and small characters and Chinese characters.Officials are professors of Zhongdu and assistant teachers of Guozi.

In just a few years, his studies have flourished. He also completed the Jurchen translations of Chinese classics such as "Yi", "Book", "The Analects of Confucius", and "Mencius".

Most of the students taught by Professor Tu Shanyi later became officials or high officials.

At that time, the virtuous prime minister He Shilie Liangbi personally went to the school to discuss with him and paid deep respect to him.Emperor Sejong also praised Tu Danyi for being "gentle and gentle, and easy-going", while Taiwei Wanyan Shoudao said that Tu Danyi was "talented and capable of serving in political affairs".

When Zhang Zong came to the throne, Tu Shanyi was promoted from the position of left admonishment doctor and minister of officials to Zhongcheng Yushi, Shen Zhizhengshi, and became one of the chief ministers of the current dynasty.

That was 23 years ago. At that time, Wanyan Gang had just achieved Fengyu, and he was a thousand miles away from Tudanyi.

But Tu Danyi's status as the prime minister did not last long.

Because Emperor Zhangzong was determined to rule the country, he used Xu Zhiguo and his gang to fight fiercely with the political forces of the inner clan kings.Zheng Wang Wanyan Yongbao and Pickaxe King Wanyan Yongzhong died one after another, and other nobles of the inner clan were also killed by the emperor looking for an opportunity.

This matter had nothing to do with Tu Danyi, but at this time he wrote a letter to remonstrate with the emperor, asking the emperor not to ignore small acts of kindness based on his likes and dislikes. Zhongdu.

For more than ten years since then, Tu Danyi has risen and fallen and successively served in important positions such as Jiedushi, Liushou, Pingzhang political affairs, magistrate, and pacification envoy, with achievements in governance in all places.When Taihe conquered the Song Dynasty, Wan Yangang led the people in Guanlong to defeat Shu.

At that time, Tu Shanyi knew about the affairs of the Jingzhao Mansion, and acted as a procuratorate envoy. The Shaanxi Marshal's Mansion was also controlled, and he could be regarded as Wan Yan Gang's boss, but he was easy-going and graceful, and didn't easily compete with others.

When the Mongols invaded in the third year of Da'an, Tu Shanyi was staying in Shangjing to take up his post. He hurriedly dispatched his Tongzhi Ugu Sun Wutun with [-] elite soldiers to defend Zhongdu.The central capital relied on it for peace, and Tu Shanyi paid homage to the prime minister for the third time with this meritorious service, and became Shangshu Youcheng.

But the current emperor respects Tu Dan Yikong, but he cannot accept his opinion.

Before the Battle of Yehuling, Tu Shanyi proposed that the border garrisons should not be dispersed, but must be assembled as soon as possible to protect the city, and good generals should be selected to prepare for the defense.

The emperor refused to accept it, so there was a disastrous defeat.

Tu Shanyi also wrote a letter saying that the three prefectures of Shangchang, Huan, and Fu in the frontier fortress are rich and powerful, and the people are all brave. This will benefit my military power.People, animals, goods and property will not be lost.

The emperor still refused to accept it, and as a result, most of the three states and hundreds of millions of military resources were used by Mongolia.

Not long after, Tu Shanyi wrote a letter for the third time, this time talking about the affairs of Liaodong.He said that Liaodong is the foundation of the country, and it is thousands of miles away from the central capital. In case of receiving troops, the state government will look after it, and all major and minor matters must be reported and implemented, and there are many mistakes.When sending powerful ministers to Liaodong province to town.

At this time, in order to deal with Mongolia, the emperor established Xijing Province and Xuande Province successively. Tu Danyi's suggestion was to take advantage of the trend and be very cautious.

But the emperor thought that if Tu Danyi wanted to set up a province in Liaodong, where nothing happened, it would sway people's hearts in vain, and he was still not allowed.As a result, Yeluliuge, a Khitan native, raised troops to rebuild the Liao Kingdom last year, but Tokyo failed to defend, and the foundation of the country was shaken.

The relationship between the monarch and his ministers has reached this level, and Tu Shanyi really has nothing to say.

He is nearly seventy years old, and has served in four dynasties for more than forty years. Couldn't he prove himself?
Isn't the queen in the palace the daughter of Tu Shan?

What is the emperor suspicious of?
Could it be that he is willing to pay such a heavy price just to suppress the right prime minister?

In Tu Danyi's impression, before the current emperor ascended the throne, he was at least worthy of a man.Why did he behave so absurdly after ascending to the Great Treasure?Over the years, Dajin has already withered talent, and now even the emperor is confused like this?
How many times does this happen again, will Daikin still be there?
No, something like this has happened again.Isn't the reckless behavior of the Jinshan province in front of him and Wanyan Gang in front of him the beginning of another failure?

The Mongols will definitely come back after autumn, but they can unify their powers to fight against powerful enemies. Is it possible to use such a method?Isn't the power that has been integrated in this way still torn apart inside?
At this time, a strong enemy is on the sidelines, the thief and the minister are at the mercy, and they are sick at home and abroad, so they dare not treat them, but Shan Yi pretends to be calm and anxious, but in the end he can only do nothing.

Sometimes he even felt that it was a great thing for him to fall from a horse and hurt his leg.At least, this way, you don't have to go to the court to see the confused faces of those mediocre people.

How is the official business, what is the status of the country... Tu Shanyi is already planning to let go.He didn't know what else he could do, what else he could do.

I really didn't expect that Wanyan Gang actually used his tricks on Tu Shanhang?If he really got his way, how should Tu Danyi face his cousin who passed away not long ago?
From this perspective, Tu Shanyi is very grateful to Guo Ning.At least, this reckless leader of the defeated army slaughtered Chizhan Sagai, a mad dog, and did what Tu Danyi always wanted to do, but was unable to do it due to his status.

Tu Shanyi didn't care as much as Chong Xuanzi did about the consequences of doing so, let alone panic.

This clan brother has been in Taoism for decades, and his stomach is full of methods of life cultivation, but his vision is getting shallower and shallower.He didn't understand that even if Wanyan Gang was furious because of this, Tu Shanyi was not afraid.

Is the ups and downs in the court so terrible?Even if I, Tu Danyi, was defeated by Wanyan Gang, and there are people from Tu Dan Ming, Tu Dan Nanping, Tu Dan Mei Lie and other tribes in court, the ups and downs of the above, no one knows the outcome until the final decision .

As for that Guo Ning, a character who rose from the grass, he tried his best to play tricks and tricks.

In his decades of political career, Tu Shanyi has seen many such figures come and go.

Influenced by his political career, the apostle Shan Yi is very clear that he should not be controlled by emotions at any time. He must rely on pros and cons to take appropriate actions at the appropriate time.

No matter what Guo Ning's purpose in killing Chizhan Sagai was, even if he wanted to instigate profit.Now that he has done this, his successor must accept the kindness shown by Tu Danyi, and be on the front line of confrontation with Wanyan Gang.

And Tu Danyi must also accept this person, and support this person, so that he has the ability to fight against Wanyan Gang.At least, you can't lose too fast.

The rules in the political arena are like this, and you don't need to be very smart to master them.If everything develops normally, the next thing for Tu Shanyi to do is also very simple.

Even though Tu Shanyi had planned to let go, this little matter was not difficult.

Only Du Shisheng...

Chongxuanzi only remembers that this is an old man back then, but in Tudanyi's memory, he represents more information.

But at this moment, this person, the appearance of these messages suddenly made Tu Danyi think of some things that he would not have thought of before.

Tu Shanyi closed his eyes slightly, and murmured: "I remember when Du Shisheng was in Zhongdu, he was familiar with your group?"

"Hey, when I was in contact with Du Shisheng, didn't I follow my brother's wishes and form a good relationship with Xu Zhiguo?"

Tu Danyi didn't even open his eyes, and said to himself: "I remember, you all like spells and wind horns."

Chongxuanzi was a little emotional: "Yes. At that time, Master Tixuan was in Zhongdu, and he was quite miraculous. In addition, Mr. Taigu loved Yixue and divination, and he also gave us advice. During that time, Du Shisheng, Zhao Jingdao, Gao Zhengzhi, Wu Zhen, Li Ji'an and others are all there, talking every day, really happy."

"As a result, Du Shisheng's nonsense came out, causing trouble with the boss."

"Cough cough..."

At that time, Du Shisheng didn't know what medicine he had taken wrongly, and he suddenly lost his temper, and ran to the public to say those taboo words, Chong Xuanzi and others were also shocked.Later, Zhao Jingdao, Gao Zhengzhi, Wu Zhen and others were implicated and had to leave Zhongdu.And Li Ji and Li Ji'an were dismissed because of this.

Chong Xuanzi didn't suffer that time, so he naturally relied on Tu Danyi's help.But thinking of the embarrassment during that time, he still has lingering fears, and he can't help coughing again and again.

While coughing, Tu Shanyi asked, "Do you remember what Du Shisheng said at that time?"

Chong Xuanzi's face turned pale: "What?"

"The few words he said were once spread all over the world. I still remember them."

Tu Shanyi said softly: "He said, I see that the red air in the north is like blood, the east and the west stretch across the sky, the world will be in chaos, and in chaos, the north and south should be one. The news is full of emptiness, and the cycle is endless. After reviewing the past, who can violate it?" Of."

"...Yes." Chong Xuanzi replied tremblingly.

"I've also seen the sight of the red air in the north like blood, and the sky stretching from east to west in the past two years. If this continues, hehe, the world will be in chaos, and the north and south will become one. Who knows?"

Tu Danyi opened his eyes and looked at his eyes carefully, but there was clearly nothing in front of him: "As for the last four sentences..."

Shan Yi sat up straight.

He was old, but once he sat up straight, the original intention of humility and retreat seemed to be swept away, and his whole person was full of fighting spirit.

He said: "It is said in the Nanhua Sutra that when the news is full and empty, there is a beginning at the end. And from the end to the beginning, the cycle of violent changes without any reason is just like the wind shaking thunder. Zhiyuan, what is the hexagram that shakes up and down ?”

In terms of easy calculation and calculation, Chongxuanzi is far inferior to Tudanyi, but this is also his ability to eat after all.He gritted his teeth, and replied: "It's the hexagram 'Yi'. Benefits will flow, and benefits will involve the great river. This is the hexagram of harming the upper to benefit the lower. But the hexagram 'Yi' has chaos, so it will end in chaos."

"Then, why is 'Yi' the end of the hexagram?"

Sweat dripped from Chong Xuanzi's forehead continuously.He replied: "It is 'jiji'!"

Tu Shanyi was thoughtful: "'Ji Ji', prosperity, the small one is prosperous. Li Zhen, hard and soft, upright and in position. At the beginning of auspiciousness, softness is in the middle. When it ends, it will be chaotic, and its way is poor. Aspirations Yuan, the news in this world is full and empty, and there is no reason for the cycle, so, there are "Weak Ji" and "Ji Ji", but there should be no "Yong Ji"! After reviewing the past, how can we go against it?"

Chongxuanzi's legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

When Tu Shanyi said this, it could be said that he had a poor idea.It's all because the current emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom, the person who disappointed Tu Shanyi time and time again, is named Wanyan Yongji!
