Chapter 45: Mother's Eyes
Zhang Zai frowned and said: "Ziyu, your words are very strange, but I understand what you mean, it's just that if today's land annexation is getting more and more powerful, and the dynasties are going to collapse, the fundamental reason is that the land annexation is harmful, the people have no land, the court and the Son of Heaven will have no popular support, and the country will be in turmoil." ”
Zhang Bin sighed and said: "The child also knows what the father said, but the child is forgiven, unless the father is in the position of prime minister, no matter how much so-called practice is done, it will only push the father to the opposite side of the entire court, and make the father more and more powerless to do anything." ”
Zhang Zai said stubbornly: "My father's mind has been decided, you don't need to say more." In the past few days for his father, he wrote the "Jingtian Discussion" to advocate that the Son of Heaven should be played, and raise money to buy 3,000 mu of land, and then divide it into public land and private land according to the model of "Zhou Li", and distribute it to landless and landless peasants, and dredge the east and west canals into public canals, so as to prove that the Jingtian system is also feasible in our Great Song Dynasty and will definitely solve the problem of land annexation. ”
Zhang Bin suddenly remembered that in the later generations, Hengqu Town, Fufeng Wujing Town, and Chang'an Ziwu Town, Guanzhong County, still maintained the relics of Zhang Zai's implementation of the well field system, and spread the story of "Hengqu Eight Water Well Field".
He immediately understood that Daddy was not an idealist, but a devotee.
It's not that Dad can't see through the huge conflict of interests involved behind this incident, nor does he fail to see all the catastrophic disasters that this incident has brought to him, but he is desperate for his beliefs and lifelong philosophy.
If such a person is someone else, or looks at the sages from the perspective of future generations, he will naturally admire and praise them.
But when he came to this era and became Zhang Zai's only son, Zhang Bin only wanted to stop this matter.
Because if Dad does this, not only will Dad not want to be an official in this life, even he will have many difficulties in his career, let alone be a prime minister, and turn a weak Song into a strong Song Dynasty......
Because, others will worry that he will inherit his father's wishes and implement the Ida system after coming to power.
"Father, the so-called gentleman is in righteousness, and villain is in profit. This matter can't be like this, there must be a way to have both, otherwise my father will implement the well field system like this, and there will be no results at all. Zhang Bin was unwilling and tried to convince his father.
"Don't talk about it, go to the backyard and see your mother!" Zhang Zai glanced at his son with a disappointed face, shook his head and said.
Zhang Bin smiled bitterly, bowed to Zhang Zai, and said, "I hope that the father will think twice, and the child will retire." ”
……
……
Standing at the door of the backyard, Zhang Bin thought about seeing the mother of this body, so he felt a little weak and temporarily left his stubborn father behind.
Motherhood is often more delicate than fatherhood...... The dove occupies the magpie's nest, although the body has not changed, but the soul is not the original goods! I don't know if the old lady can see it?
recalled the process of Zhang Bin meeting his mother in the past, he stood at the gate of the courtyard and tidied up his clothes before striding inside.
"Childe, Madame heard that you were back, and I didn't see you coming for a long time, so I asked the slave to call you!" Zhang Bin didn't take a few steps before he ran into his mother's maid, who saluted and said.
Zhang Bin looked at this maid carefully, two or three years older than Zhu Niang, and plumper, her posture was a little worse, remembering that this was Xiaohong, the maid next to her mother, nodded, and said while continuing to walk forward: "My mother is okay!" ”
Xiaohong sighed and said, "Childe, Madame's brows haven't stretched recently. ”
Zhang Bin was concerned: "Why is this? ”
Xiaohong complained: "The slave doesn't dare to say this, the son should ask the lady!" ”
Zhang Bin guessed that it was probably his father's reason, and his heart moved, and he had a way to stop his father from implementing the Jingtian system.
Not to mention anything else, judging from the matter of marrying a wife and concubine, Zhang Zai is an outlier among the officials of this era.
Not to mention the desires of the man himself, even if the problem of blood descendants is taken into account, those who are officials will have wives and concubines, as few as two or three, and as many as twenty or thirty, but Zhang Zai is also a person who has been a high-ranking official of the fourth grade, but there is only one wife, which is also one of the reasons why Zhang Bin is now the only seedling of the Zhang family.
Zhang Zai's wife is also a young lady from an official eunuch family, born in the Feng family, a famous family in the Central Plains, and an official eunuch family.
When Zhang Bin saw Feng, the latter looked at him pitifully, and there were bloodshots in his beautiful eyes, which was obviously that he hadn't rested well recently.
When Feng heard that her son was coming, she was pleasantly surprised and wanted to complain to her son, but the moment she saw her son come in, she was stunned, obviously it was her son who came in, but in a trance she felt that it was not her son who came in, and her walking posture was a little different, especially the look in her eyes......
In the past, her son's eyes were almost printed in the same mold as her Lao Tzu, with a stubborn stupidity, but now they are full of agility, and there is a faint sense of profundity.
How much suffering Duowu'er has experienced in this year, and how much has changed so much, thinking of the news from Dashun City, Feng's loving eyes are full of pity.
When Zhang Bin noticed the change in the mother's expression, he sighed in his heart, thinking that the mother was really careful and knew her son better, but after feeling the love and pity in the mother's eyes, he was secretly relieved.
Obviously, he didn't need to explain that the mother had already made up some things, which was one of the most common skills of people since ancient times. That's why there is a saying that 'hearing is false, seeing is believing'.
"The child meets his mother." Zhang Bin saluted with a glance.
But Feng Shi didn't wait for his son to bow down, so he walked over in three steps and two steps, his white and slender fingers grabbed his son's hand, rubbed it on his face, and his expression became more and more pity: "Wu'er has suffered for more than a year, tanned a lot, and lost a lot of weight, it's your ruthless father, who wants to send you to a dangerous place like Dashun City, I also heard that you were almost killed by the son of the prison soldier Wu Pei, and once made Wu'er ruined, you don't know this Mother cried for several days when she heard this, your father didn't stand up for you, Mother has already written to your uncle, Then Wu Pei's father and son must not be able to spare him. ”
Feng is twelve years younger than Zhang Zai, and now he is only thirty-four years old. Not counting concubines, there is such a big age difference between husband and wife, this situation may be a lot in later generations, but not much in ancient times.
There is no way to 'have three unfilial pieties, no queen is great', and 'a hundred virtues and filial piety are the first', if someone in ancient times was like Zhang Zai before he got married and had children at the age of twenty-seven or eighteen, he would have been drowned by the spittle of the world, but Zhang Zai is a person with ideals and beliefs, and he regards faith and ideals as more important than life, and even more important than everything and desperate people.
