He was the first "incense" minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the emperor liked it, but he was not reused for life| read history wisely

During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, on a sunny winter day, the streets of Kaifengfu in Tokyo were bustling.

Hanlin Bachelor Mei inquired about the short circuit of writing, and several edicts were hard to understand.

Case labor, look tired, go out to bask in the sun!

Walking to the corner, under a low wall, the sun was too good to blow in.

Lying a veteran in a sheepskin jacket, yawning long in the warm winter sun, a big lazy waist.

The dizzy Mei Xueshi looked stunned and sighed: "It's so comfortable!" ”

He stepped forward and asked, "Are you literate?" ”

The veteran slowly half-opened his eyes and said, "Illiterate." ”

Catch a lice from the sheepskin jacket and put it in your mouth, ignoring the old plum.

Mei Qian sighed even more: "This is a complete happiness! ”

Literacy begins with life's troubles.

To be able to make such a sigh, Mei Inquiry's understanding must be very high.

But it is still the same as the old song: the world is good to the gods, but the merits and names cannot be forgotten.

Mr. Mei's lifelong affair is this portrayal.

He was the first "incense" minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the emperor liked it, but he was not reused for life| read history wisely

​01

Xuancheng, Anhui, humanities and wisdom. The Xuancheng Mei clan is a clan of shili heirlooms.

"From the Kwajing land to everyone's jade, not as good as the Mei family tree flowers."

Generations of soldiers one after another, the Mei family generation has talent out. Mei Qian is the third generation of the Mei family to move to Xuancheng.

At the age of 25, Emperor Taizong of Song entered the priesthood in the second year (989) and the first.

This kind of family, some are rich, know how to be elegant, and poetry is a natural skill.

In the era of Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty determined the national policy of emphasizing literature over martial arts, and the era of cultural people showing their skills came.

The golden avenue of life unfolds slowly in front of Mei Que, incomparably seductive and incomparably brilliant.

In the first five or six years, only one of the many jinshi, Mei Qing did not have any outstanding performance, the same resume as the running account.

In the third year of Zhenzong Xianping, when he was in the duty room of the Chongzheng Hall, he met Emperor Zhenzong who was passing by.

This is an adventure, I don't know if Zhenzong looked at his appearance, or was he attracted by the strange fragrance on his body?

In short, the emperor admired Mei Qing very much, and called an order to Zhongshu Province and asked a few questions.

This opportunity for the emperor to be summoned alone is an opportunity for all.

Mei Que, who could speak eloquently, did not miss this opportunity, answered quite well, the emperor was very satisfied, very speculative, so that Mei Que had a sense of knowledge.

Emperor Zhenzong then sent him to work at jixian temple, and rewarded him with a red robe and silver fish ornaments.

This treatment is very honorable.

At that time, the scholar-doctor was called "out of reach", and he was high up in the air, chatting with the emperor in a heated way.

Many people looked red, this is Mei Qian's proud age.

People have a problem, the more things they don't have, the more they like to boast.

The poor say that their ancestors were broad-minded, the rich people talk about the grandfathers who are too advanced, the businessmen talk about the study of Chinese culture, and the professors talk about the stock market.

Same thing.

This great Song Dynasty was the world of readers, and the literati who had no power to tie their hands gathered together, and what they liked to talk about most was to talk about the art of war.

Being praised by friends as a "zhibing soldier" is a great honor.

Mei Que is also not exempt from vulgarity, reading military books, talking about military formations, and the rules are the way.

Emperor Zhenzong had just succeeded to the throne, and the Liao state continued to move south, which was the most headache.

Among the northwestern party members, there was a chaotic tyrant Li Jiqian, who had been harassing the Great Song Dynasty, such as Xiao Qiang, who could not die, and became more and more tenacious and strong.

The frontline of Lingzhou has basically fallen into Li Jiqian's forces, what to do?

Mei Qian gave the imperial court an idea: to grant Lingzhou to Pan Luozhi, the tubo chief of liugu, and use tubo power to contain Li Jiqian.

This is called yi to control yi, which is very much in line with the traditional policy of the Central Plains Dynasty to govern the frontier problem.

—— Don't think that Mei Shusheng is unrealistic, in the end Li Jiqian died at the hands of Pan Luozhi!

Not to mention that Mei inquired about this plan, who was sent to contact Pan Luozhi?

Tubo and the Great Song Dynasty, the party is sometimes enemies and friends, war and peace, the attitude is very unclear.

At this time, when I went to Tubo, it was ugly to say, also called going deep into the tiger's den, and whether I would come back alive was unknown.

Mei Que patted his chest: "If you can save Lingzhou and destroy the war in the west, what is the pity if you die me Mei Que alone!" ”

Passionate, like a warrior.

Zhenzong was very happy and praised Mei Qian for his boldness and loyalty. But he was not allowed to take the risk and sent someone else.

Before leaving, Lingzhou had been occupied by Li Jiqian, and the plan was stranded.

Although the plan was not put into action, it was praised by the emperor and Mei Qian was very encouraged.

Subsequently, he carefully understood the situation in the northwest and put forward more than a dozen suggestions:

For example, if the border generals are more conservative and refuse to take the initiative to attack, they must send ministers to sit in the town to supervise the battle; recruit military border people on the border, form troops to attack the party members, and so on.

Commenting on the general at that time, Cao Wei was powerful, and Fu Qian should be killed.

Very prominent, very prominent.

It feels too enthusiastic and too eager.

And the overall situation is that the alliance of the northern Yuanyuan was concluded, and Song Liao talked about peace. In the northwest, Li Jiqian was killed in battle, and his son Li Deming declared himself a vassal to the Great Song Dynasty, and the world was at peace.

In the early days of the Song Dynasty, the prime minister was named Li Xun, who was the teacher of Zhenzong and had a high prestige, known as the "Holy Face".

Officials who pay attention to stability and peace, and do not like "floating and new happy events".

Zhenzong liked Mei Zhen and felt that he was a piece of material and wanted to promote and reuse.

Li Xun disagreed: Mei Inquiry this person is too good at drilling camps and is not worthy of big responsibilities. Rhetoric, not practicality. Eyes above the sky, what a big thing this war is, Mei Que said it so easily, it is not right.

Emperor Zhenzong had great respect for Li Xun, and the courtiers Wang Dan and Kou Zhun all admired Li Xun.

Such a heavyweight big guy's comment on Lao Mei is like this, and Lao Mei's future is dark.

Mei Que himself is not angry, and the things he does are greedy and cheap, and he is indignant about the public family.

He had a friend named Shao Ye who was sick.

The son of the Shao family returned to his hometown to visit, and Mei Qian lent him the public horse, but he did not expect the horse to die, and the matter was revealed.

This is put now, it is the private use of buses!

The role of horses in ancient times was a first-class strategic material, so Mei Qian was fiercely approved by his superiors and demoted to use.

After decades of official eunuch career, Mei Inquiry complained about Song Zhenzong's "Heavenly Book Movement" and made a mistake in judging the case.

He used to walk very close to Kou Zhun, and it was precisely the time when Kou Zhun and Ding Zhi were fighting for power.

Zhu Neng, a close associate of Kou Zhun, even wanted to use force, and was killed by his opponent first.

This Zhu Neng was recommended by Mei Qian.

Such luck and deeds, coupled with the label that Li Xun labeled him, Lao Mei could only stand aside.

Much later, Li Xun had been dead for many years, and Lao Mei's friends recommended him to Zhenzong, who also said: "Li Xun said before his death that Mei Xun was not a gentleman. ”

Let the big people hate it, this life is tragic.

Not to mention that he is a silent prime minister-level big man.

The ancients had the habit of incense, and the pursuit was an elegant word.

Mei Que is a typical one.

Every day before going to work, he lit two incense burners, put his official robe on it, pinched his sleeves when he went out, and went to the office to unfold his sleeves.

Lao Mei uses incense that is particularly exquisite, such as "dragon musk", and the name is tall.

Emperor Zhenzong liked it very much, and when he was fine, he called Lao Mei to smell it, what incense was popular this year?

Everything is black and white, some people like incense, like to be clean, and some people like not to trim the edges.

Didn't the ancients have the grace of a celebrity who talks about lice!

There was a man named Dou Yuanbin, who was an official of the N generation, who did not bathe for several months, and the mud on his neck was an inch thick.

There is also a colleague named Sheng Du, who is a big fat man with a big belly and poop, and he can't get up when he goes down.

And Ding Zhi was thin and small, and the lines on his face were cut with axes.

So everyone teased: Sheng Fei Ding is thin, and Mei Xiang Dou stinks.

This may be one of the reasons why the Song Dynasty was a pleasure for readers, you can live by your own nature, without too many rules.

It is said that Mei Qian worked in Haozhou, and the deputy assigned by the imperial court was named Lü Yijian.

Lao Mei had a dream that night, and someone told him: Lu Zaixiang has come.

So Old Mei is very good to Xiao Lu.

Lü Yijian indeed became a famous prime minister of the Renzong Dynasty, repaid Li Toutao, took good care of Lao Mei, and transferred him back to the central government.

From the Zhenzong Dynasty to the central government, Lao Mei spent most of his time working locally for more than forty years.

Many of his students and juniors have been in the Cabinet as Privy Counsellors, so-called figures of the two provinces.

And Mei Qian will always be a "white first Hanlin".

One day, Renzong asked: How many household registrations are there in the world?

Mei Qian rushed to answer: "Five generations of chaos in the world, the number of households has been greatly reduced." After the rest and health of the Great Song Dynasty Emperor Taizong Zhenzong, the hukou in the world must have doubled now. ”

At this time, Mei Lao was in his seventies, and the older he got, the more afraid he was of retirement, and the more enthusiastic he was about climbing up.

Unable to enter the gates of the two provinces, Mei Lao complained about the world, and even blamed himself for the pain in his feet.

As it turned out, the imperial court let him work in Xuzhou on the grounds that he was "sick and foot".

He died there at the age of 78.

Mei Yaochen's nephew Mei Yaochen (a great poet of the Song Dynasty) was good friends with Ouyang Xiu.

Ouyang pleaded: "My uncle is very ill and is still lying in bed reading your articles." Write him an epitaph! ”

Ouyang wrote a very good article to give Mei Lao a good comfort.

"Peers look at each other, and it is more important to be a character." The sooner you know this life experience, the better!
