Wang Anshi nodded, shook his head again, and said: "That's not necessarily, I read Han Jiang's letter last night, which mentioned Zhang Bin many times, and Han Jiang spoke highly of this son, and even called him the only young man in his life." ”

"Han Xianggong may have seen the wrong person." When Zeng Bu heard this, his heart was suddenly full of jealousy, although Han Jiang went to the northwest because of the defeat of the party struggle, he still served as the governor of the political affairs, Zhang Bin was so praised by the vice minister of the Great Song Dynasty, if this is spread, I don't know how many benefits to Zhang Bin's fame and visibility.

Wang Anshi glanced at Zeng Bu, sighed in his heart, but didn't say anything, he read what Zhang Bin said to the Son of Heaven last night, and had a deep conversation with the Son of Heaven just now, which made him realize that in order to gather more strength to fight with the old party, the people who implemented the new law themselves had too many problems, which was also one of the reasons why the equal-loss law was unsustainable after less than two years of implementation, and of course it also confirmed some of what Zhang Bin said.

But Wang Anshi also has difficulties, the old party is powerful, if he does not need Zeng Bu and others to help him, with his own strength, even with the support of the Son of Heaven, it will be difficult to implement any new law.

But what bothers Wang Anshi even more at the moment is that because of Zhang Bin's words, the Son of Heaven has wavered in his heart about changing the law, especially the method of losing evenly, and has lost confidence.

And the Son of Heaven's loss of confidence in the equalization method will definitely affect the Son of Heaven's confidence in him.

"At present, there is only one way, that is, to pull Zhang Bin into the camp, and then take Zhang Bin to correct the problems of the equalization method, improve the implementation mechanism of the equalization method, in short, directly abolish the equalization law, it is absolutely not feasible." Wang Anshi secretly made up his mind.

………

………

Just like when he came the day before yesterday, as Wang Anshi returned home from the political affairs hall, some officials who paid homage to him came as soon as possible.

Zhang Bin looked at the more than a dozen carriages lined up on the alley in front of Wang Anshi's mansion, plus the officials who came to visit each accompanied the guards, there was almost no place to stay here. But fortunately, no one dares to make a loud noise, otherwise it would be the same as the city.

Zhang Bin opened the curtain and took a look, then obediently lined up behind, and instructed Li Siwa to give Wang Anshi's name to the doorman.

Seeing Li Siwa squeezing forward with difficulty, many people turned their heads to look at Zhang Bin's carriage with a sneering face, and some people even talked about Zhang Bin's stupidity.

But after Li Siwa gave his name to Wang Anshimenzi, the doorman first said a word to another person from the house, and then he hurriedly ran to Zhang Bin's carriage at the back, knelt directly next to the carriage, and said loudly: "The villain didn't say anything to Zhang Guanren last time, and now he punishes himself with three slaps." ”

As he spoke, this man slapped himself three times.

Zhang Bin opened the curtain of the car, did not stop it, and said lightly: "Get up!" It's none of your business. ”

The man said gratefully: "Thank you, official." ”

As soon as this disciple got up, a young man hurriedly walked out of Wang Anshi's mansion, glanced left and right a few times, and strode towards this side under the guidance of another disciple next to him.

Seeing this young man, the dozen or so officials in front of them and their entourage guards were suddenly startled, causing a commotion, and many people looked surprised and even shocked.

"Wang Xianggong's second son, the second son of the Wang family, actually went out of the house to greet him in person!"

"Who's the last one? Could it be the backbone of the new party? ”

"It's impossible, you didn't see Zeng Bu, Xue Xiang and other backbone members of the New Party who went in directly, and they didn't report it, so there was no need to hand over the post."

Zhang Bin naturally heard some of these discussions, and jumped out of the carriage.

"This official is so young."

"I know who he is."

"As soon as you say it, I remember."

"It's strange to say, this son has a grudge with the Wang family, the day before yesterday, the Wang family also drove this son away, why today Wang Xianggong personally issued a name post and invited people to the door again."

"It's really weird."

"Next to the king, I saw Brother Zhang." The young man took the initiative to surrender his hand to Zhang Bin with an enthusiastic face.

"It turned out to be the second son, Brother Wang is polite." Although Zhang Bin already has a loose official, a title and a knighthood, he will not be stupid to support the prime minister's son, and hurriedly return the salute.

He knew that the young man in front of him, who was about the same age as him, was just the opposite of his brother Wang Yan's experience, and even somewhat similar to him, both of whom failed the imperial examination two years ago, because his father and brother's light was too dazzling, and he was said to be a mediocre person with a depressed personality.

"Brother Zhang, please, your servants have their own subordinates to entertain you, and my father and Xue Guanren have been waiting for Brother Zhang in the study for a long time." Wang Fang obviously came out to greet him on the order of Wang Anshi, and he didn't have any intention of talking to Zhang Bin more.

Zhang Bin was not hypocritical, and gave Hutou and Li Siwa an explanation, and then followed the king into the prime minister's mansion.

The scene just now fell in the eyes of the officials who were waiting to visit Wang Anshi, they were naturally taken aback, and there were many discussions, and it was already surprising to jump into the queue directly into the mansion, and they were personally welcomed into the mansion by the son of the prime minister, which is extremely rare, and naturally there is a lot of envy and jealousy.

"What the next day before yesterday was said in front of the door, it was definitely not explained by my father, and I ask Brother Zhang to forgive me." Entering the door, bypassing the photo wall, and entering the front yard, Wang said suddenly, his expression was flat, and there was helplessness in his eyes.

Zhang Bin said with a smile: "Wang Xianggong is such a character, naturally he will not do such a small thing." ”

Wang Bi didn't say who let that Menzi drive Zhang Bin away, and said such bad words, Zhang Bin didn't ask, Wang Yan hadn't come back the day before yesterday, it wasn't what Wang Anshi said, and Wang Bi next to him shouldn't do such things, and there are only a few Wang family members in this house, and it is not difficult to guess that there is something to entangle with a woman who can make Menzi obedient.

The two came to the outside of the study, and Wang was about to enter the door to report, when a deep middle-aged man's voice came from inside: "Bian'er, don't bring guests directly in." ”

"Yes, father."

Wang Bei agreed, stretched out his hand to invite Zhang Bin to enter, but he didn't follow up, and gently closed the door from the outside.

The study room in the vice minister's mansion was very large and bright, and as soon as Zhang Bin entered the door, he saw five eyes looking at him in unison.

Sitting in the middle of the upper seat, tall, with some dark skin, dressed in a purple robe, the man who looked like he was about fifty years old looked at him, his eyes were full of complicated scrutiny, and naturally he was Wang Anshi, who has been famous for thousands of years and has been controversial since ancient times.

The other four were all middle-aged men in their forties, Xue Xiang had already seen them this morning, and nodded to him at this time.

The other three, like Xue Xiang, were all dressed in red robes, and their eyes were sharper than the other, but the meanings contained in their eyes were different.

Two of them had undisguised suspicion in their eyes, while the other was hidden, but Zhang Bin still felt a faint hostility......
