Su Shi, who had passed the message, did not rush to leave, but asked Murong Fu with a sincere face: "Zihou saw what you were doing?" ”

Shouldn't the answer to this question be that you come to sue me? Murong Fu was silent for a long time, and replied with the same sincerity: "Teacher, I am not familiar with Master Zhang!" Not only did he not know him, but he also deliberately avoided contact with this person. Murong Fu knew Zhang Dun as a person, and he had read many anecdotes about him and analyzed his character in depth. Zhang Dian is a talented person with high ambitions, self-righteousness, and retribution, and would rather he bear the people of the world than the people of the world to bear him, such a heroic figure, he is really not a good candidate.

Su Shi also seemed to wake up to his question, and reminded with a slight twist: "I have been friends with Zihou for many years, Zihou has a rebellious temperament, and you must remember to be humble when you get along with him." Su Shi is really a natural gossip king, and it is inevitable that the student inadvertently offended Zhang Dun and was hated by him, and turned the matter of "Zhang Dun Book Cliff" out and said it again, and finally sighed. "Zihou is a person who doesn't even care about his life, and he will be able to kill!"

Murong Fu saw Su Shi's concern on his face, and suddenly knew that Su Shi was also very jealous of this friend in his heart. It's just that he is open-minded and uninhibited, and he doesn't know it. Although Murong Fu was unwilling to have a deep friendship with Zhang Dan, he was not afraid of him. Seeing Su Shi worried at this time, he couldn't help but smile lightly and quipped: "Teacher, students have also killed people!" ”

Su Shi knew that this student was a hundred times more reliable than himself, and when he saw that his expression was relaxed, he also relaxed, and said: "The Empress Dowager has agreed to build six doors, and she will come down in a few days." ”

The construction of the six doors all relied on Su Shi to use his powerful charm to say things for Zhuge Zheng, and Murong Fu hurriedly bowed. "Thank you, teacher!"

Su Shi shook his head, and said with some desire to speak: "Your friend, Lord Zhuge ...... If I hadn't seen him myself, I would have almost thought he was...... He ......"

"Think he's lucky?" Murong Fu smiled and completed Su Shi's unspoken words. The Six Doors were set up by the Central Order of the Imperial Court, and although they were subordinate to the Criminal Department, the Criminal Department did not have the right to govern the handling of the Six Doors. After the establishment of the Six Doors, the main cases were all the big cases of the government and the opposition, and this kind of department was indeed easy to be regarded as a hawk dog lackey who flattered the royal family. "Teacher, Brother Zhuge has a straightforward temperament, and he is even more loyal to the imperial court, he is by no means that kind of person."

Su Shi also knew that Zhuge Zheng was not that kind of person, and sighed faintly: "Cai Yuanchang has already committed public anger by going against the grain, even if there is no evidence you collect, he will be impeached, and he can't do it anymore." Isn't it better to sit in Kaifeng Mansion than to be in charge of the six doors? ”

"Teacher, with Brother Zhuge 's talent, a mere Kaifeng Mansion is too small!" Seeing Su Shi's surprised face, Murong Fu revealed two more words. "Now that the Empress Dowager is hanging the curtain, the court and the opposition are Jingning, what big case can there be? Brother Zhuge has a lot of connections and prestige in the rivers and lakes, and instead of teaching those strange people and strange people on the rivers and lakes to have nothing to do, it is better to unite them to serve the country. ”

Su Shi knew the meaning of the song when he heard it, and immediately said, "What do you mean by those alien races?" ”

Murong Fu nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The Liao State occupies Yanyun, like a thorn on the back of my Great Song. The Xia Kingdom has always been at both ends of the first rat between my Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom, like a-stirring stick, which is really hateful! I also heard that in recent years, the land of Qingtang has not been very stable, and Tibet is about to move. The current situation of my Great Song Dynasty seems to be Heqing Haiyan, but it is already full of dangers. At present, the imperial court can't draw heavy troops, so it's better to use waste. Instead of letting those Jianghu people idle and fight for the world's first false name, it is better to send them to the border, or spy on the military intelligence, or lurk in foreign races to provoke them. ”

Su Shi's brows furrowed slightly, and he said softly, "How long have you had this idea?" ”

"Since I saw the methods of Xixia Yipintang on the road to conquer back then, the students have this idea." Murong Fu replied calmly, and silently added in his heart: And I have already planted a lot of chess pieces in Western Xia, but I don't know people clearly, and there is a little problem with this most important chess piece, so I have to think about the second security measure in advance.

"Does Lord Zhuge understand your thoughts?" Su Shi asked again.

"Brother Zhuge is a smart man, and when it comes to fruition, he will naturally understand." Murong Fu said with a smile.

Su Shi let out a long sigh and said happily: "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves." Akashi, twenty years later, this court must be you! Su Shi, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang have known each other for many years, and although these two people have completely different attitudes towards the reform of the new law, they are essentially brave and courageous people. However, as the ruler of a country, Su Shi always faintly felt that they lacked something. Until Murong Fu was admitted to Tanhua, according to the rule that court officials were not allowed to sell foreign goods, Murong Fu transferred all his overseas business to Wang Yuyan's name. Su Shi came into contact with Murong Fu's overseas industry as Wang Yuyan's mentor and future father-in-law, and listened to his son Su Mai recount his overseas experiences over the years. Only then did Su Shi truly understand his methods as a student. Murong Fu often makes strange moves, like an antelope hanging its horns without a trace, it seems to be idle everywhere, but in fact, it is vertical, horizontal, left and right. Once the picture is exhausted, it is difficult to turn around. Knowing the situation and building momentum, this is what the two prime ministers Wang Anshi and Sima Guang lacked.

The idol has such a high opinion of himself, Murong Fu is naturally happy, but he laughed for a while and then said with a straight face: "Sima Xianggong is acting in an extreme way, but now the court still wants the teacher to be the Dinghai God Needle!" ”

Su Shi was in the prime of life, and when he returned to the court, he was naturally full of ambition and wanted to do a career. It's just that he is old and reserved after all, and he realized that if he continued to talk about it, he would inevitably fall into a disgusting situation where the master and apprentice touted each other, so he smiled and turned to leave.

Three days later, Murong Fu invited Zhang Duan in Jinlin Building. Although it was Zhang Dian who took the lead in expressing his goodwill, Murong Fu was naturally not a humble eight-rank official who could not wait for Zhang Dian to pay for him to dinner.

The two sat opposite each other and drank a cup, but Zhang Dian was not in a hurry to speak, but only looked around at Jinlin Tower, which was famous in Bianjing and even the whole country. Needless to say, the decoration is gorgeous, the wine and food are sumptuous, and there is a storyteller in the hall downstairs who patted the wood and said loudly: "I saw Yue Shuai's eyes sinking like electricity, pointing at Qin Hui and saying loudly, 'What a servile, greedy and shameless Qin Xianggong!'" If I leave you alive, I don't know how many bloody men will be harmed by my Da Chen! Left and right, fork him down for me, and cut him down! With the blood of this traitor, sacrifice the heroic souls of my people! ’”

"Good!" Before the storyteller's words fell, the restaurant suddenly applauded, and the sound almost toppled the roof. After a while, the reward was brought to the storyteller like water.

Seeing this, Zhang Dian couldn't help but smile slightly, and ordered the servants around him to also take silver taels to reward. "The old man occasionally ordered the servants at home to recite "The Complete Biography of Yue", but compared to this storyteller, he was a little less imposing after all."

Murong Fu smiled and didn't speak, only buried his head in adding a glass of wine to Zhang Dun. The matter of the Western Xia Guoshu made many people in the Great Song Dynasty regard Sima Guang as the Qin Hui of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhang Dian ordered the servants to read "Saying Yue Quanchuan", I am afraid that the drunkard's intention is not to drink.

Murong Fu is a disciple of Su Shi, Su Shi is a member of the old party, and everyone is not a person from the road. However, Murong Fu's expression over the past few days has made Zhang Duan have different thoughts. "A few days ago, if it weren't for Lord Murong's newspaper to break through the obstacles, the old man would not have been able to keep the Fang Tian Law and the City Yi Law. I have never thanked you, do it first for respect! As he spoke, Zhang Dian picked up the wine glass that Murong Fu had poured for him and drank it all.

Murong Fu raised his eyebrows in surprise, but saw the handsome old man with a strange figure opposite him looking at him calmly, and the Qingming old man in his eyes did not look like an old man who was over half a hundred years old. The so-called Ming people don't say dark words in front of them, and Murong Fu no longer hides them. "The subordinate officials are soft-spoken, after all, they are just nobodies waving their flags and shouting, and they still have to rely on the adults to charge into battle and reach the world!"

Zhang Dan laughed loudly and was imposing, teaching people to know at a glance that he was not an ordinary man. "It's rare that Akashi and the old man are like-minded, and now the lord Shaoguo is suspicious, and he will have to rely on you and me to work hard in the court!"

Murong Fu paused suddenly, and raised his eyes to look at Zhang Dian. The other party's blazing eyes showed the meaning of solicitation, which was obviously not Murong Fu's illusion. Historically, Zhang Dian was deeply trusted by Emperor Zhezong, and he upheld the national government for many years, and he was truly one person under ten thousand people. Murong Fu never thought that he would actually think of recruiting himself, he could only say: "Master Zhang, I am sorry for my love, but the student has entered the sect of my teacher Su Zizhan, if I change my course, I am afraid that Lord Zhang will also look down on me." "As a person with a zhangdun, as long as he does not bow his head and worship, he is already offended. Murong Fu was really impatient, and he was like two fools, hiding needles in the middle of the pipe, playing Tai Chi.

Murong Fu was so open-fired, which was obviously beyond Zhang's expectations. I saw him stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled boldly: "Zizhan is really envious of this blessing!" However, the old man knew that although Lord Murong admired Zizhan, his way of doing things was completely different from his. ”

Murong Fu shook his head and still didn't accept the offer, and replied 1510: "Master Zhang should know that my master does not agree with the complete overthrow of the new law. ”

After only three things, Zhang Dan's face sank, and he said angrily: "Zizhan has received the favor of Sima Villager, and this Jiangshan Sheji has long been taken to heart!" ”

"Master Zhang has been friends with my teacher for many years, and I should know that his kindness is not as decisive as that of my lord. In the court, although the teacher did not make his position clear, he naturally had disciples to obey him. Murong Fu replied calmly.

"You are soft-spoken, can you be a villager in Naima?" Zhang Dian said contemptuously.

Murong Fu was not angry, and only bowed his hand to the sky and said aloud: "The so-called humble does not dare to forget the country, but if the new law of the king and the prince is beneficial to the country, the lower officials will definitely fight to protect it." Do your best, and then die! ”

The corners of Zhang Dan's mouth were three points of appreciation and seven points of coldness, and he said slowly: "Lord Murong acts like this, isn't he afraid of being said to be a bat?" "A bat is a bird before a bird, and a beast before a beast. In a word, capriciousness is not human at both ends.

Murong Fu refilled another glass of wine for Zhang Dian and said with a smile: "The Empress Dowager believes in Sima Xianggong, even though Master Zhang's talent is far superior to Sima Xianggong, the Empress Dowager turns a blind eye and listens to it. In such a situation, Lord Zhang will not understand why he didn't change his course like Cai Jing, but Sima Xianggong was looking forward to keeping his wealth and wealth, but he ended up being demoted to Ruzhou? Just because the dispute between Master Zhang and Sima Xianggong is a dispute between gentlemen, just because the political disagreement is not a personal vendetta. If Lord Zhang sees the wind and steers the rudder, it is a villain's behavior. The lower officials are not talented, but they are only willing to follow the way of a gentleman and not climb the style of a villain. ”

"In this way, there will also be a fight between me and your master Su Zizhan!" Zhang Dan said murderously.

Even if you don't have me, you haven't been polite to Su Shi, an old friend, since you took the position! Murong Fu secretly slandered himself, and said: "Master Zhang, although the lower officials can't serve the adults, there is a sentence...... The enemy of the enemy can be friends for the time being. Although Murong Fu offended Zhang Dun, he didn't want to become an undying enemy with him for the time being.

"The enemy of the enemy?" Zhang Dian smiled playfully, meaning inexplicably. "Why did Lord Murong say this?"

"The lower officials have always admired Lord Zhang, and they are honest with the adults, so why should the adults perfunctory the lower officials?" Murong Fu casually turned out three wine glasses and put them on the table, "Sima Xianggong, Cheng Yi, my teacher, the old party is rich in talents on the surface, but it is actually divided into three parties: Shuo, Luo, and Shu. When Sima Xianggong went west, Master Zhang thought that who would lead the new party in the old party would be the best result? ”

Sima Guang's health has been getting worse these days, and Zhang Dian naturally knows it, and he doesn't know how many times he has cursed him in his heart. Murong Fu now has this question, and with Zhang Dan's intelligence, he understands the meaning of his words even more, and only replied with a sneer: "Liu Zhi and Cheng Yi each have a very high opinion of themselves, although Zizhan has the blue eyes of the Empress Dowager, but unfortunately he is naïve and ignorant of power and strategy, and if he wants to speak and count, I am afraid that it will be difficult, difficult, difficult!" ”

"Although Master Zhang's words are good, if the other two are allowed to take power, the achievements of Wang Xianggong and the New Party in the past ten years will be wiped out by them!" Murong Fu said sincerely, "Master Zhang, helping others is also self-help!" ”

Zhang Dian sneered and said in a deep voice: "I think Cheng Yi is pedantic, and he has more than enough success, but he is the best candidate." Although Zhang Dian was demoted from Beijing, the fact that the new law has not been completely repealed means that the banner of the new law has not fallen, and the officials under Zhang Dian who support the new law will not be scattered. The Empress Dowager's dislike of the New Party, Zhang Dun only needs to make the New Party officials write a few words to praise Su Shi, which is enough for Su Shi to be anxious.

Murong Fu sighed and said in his heart: If I let it go and let Sima Guang uproot the new law, what else can you do to make a posture of Qiao in front of me? I can't! Thinking of this, Murong Fu's face immediately sank, and he said, "I won't allow it!" ”

Zhang Dian was choked by Murong Fu, and for some reason, a little chill appeared in his heart, and he faintly believed what he said. After a while, Zhang Dian cleaned up his mood and said dissatisfiedly: "Lord Murong is trying to blackmail the old man?" ”

Murong Fu shook his head and said, "Don't dare!" Although the lower officials are unwilling to be enemies of Lord Zhang, they are even more reluctant to make the people's lives miserable because of party disputes. Please think twice! ”

Zhang Duan pondered for a while, and finally said: "I want your newspaper to open up for the new law!" In fact, Zhang Dian had this idea at the beginning, and Murong Fu was just an additive.

"Yes!" Murong Fu said generously, "Xia Guan is willing to send craftsmen to teach movable type printing, and help Master Zhang to run a newspaper for the new law and make a name for Yu Shilin." ”

As soon as Zhang Dian heard the words "Shilin is famous", his eyebrows jumped. In his opinion, what are Sima Guang and Cheng Yi's abilities, isn't it because they are very famous in Shilin that they are "expected by all"? If he follows the same example, I believe that no matter how long it takes, the officials will never forget him. Zhang Dian was reminded by Murong Fu's words, and couldn't help but say: "Lord Murong, aren't you afraid that I will take away your master's future in the future?" ”

Murong Fu shook his head gently: "Master Zhang is a smart person who has the courage to open up, while Sima Xianggong and Cheng Yi are stupid people who hold on to their defects. The major affairs of the family and the country can accommodate a hundred smart people who know how to be flexible, but they can't tolerate a single fool who can't eat the ancient! ”

Zhang Dian laughed heartily and asked, "Since it is cooperation, there will be a future." Lord Murong, what do you want? ”

"Manpower!" Murong Fu said without hesitation, "An imperial court official who is familiar with the new law and is good at government affairs!" "In terms of fame in Shilin, Su Shi has already reached the full level. What is lacking now is the younger brother who can work below.
