Wang Anshi is already very old, not only old, but physically and mentally exhausted...... He presided over the reform of the law before, which took a lot of effort, and later in order to fight for the position of prime minister, he was implicated by his son and almost lost his life.

This time he cheered up and hoped to take over the political affairs hall again, not because he wanted to do anything, but because he wanted to maintain, reconcile, and delay the dispute between the monarch and the minister, which was the last thing he could do for the Great Song Dynasty.

But who would have thought that Your Majesty would be ill at this juncture, and the dragon's body would be worried.

When he received Wang Qing's handwritten order, hoping that he would go south immediately, Wang Anshi was very hesitant, he hesitated for a long time, but he still got up and decided to complete this already difficult task!

"Dad, you can't go!"

Wang Yan stood in front of Wang Anshi.

Wang Anshi's pupils constricted, shooting out two rays of light, he didn't speak, but he was full of might, but Wang Yan was not afraid, he straightened his chest, met his father's gaze and said: "Dad, we can't be Empress Dowager Cao's gun!" ”

"Empress Dowager Cao? This is obviously your sister's edict, how can it be the meaning of the Empress Dowager Cao, you are talking nonsense! ”

"Daddy!"

Wang Yan was very anxious, "You always know better than me what kind of character my sister has, at this juncture, where does she still have an idea, it is definitely what Empress Dowager Cao meant." ”

Wang Anshi also feels that there is some truth, it does seem to be the handwriting of Empress Dowager Cao, but is there anything wrong with this?

He won't listen to Empress Dowager Cao, so what if he goes?

"Dad, why haven't you thought it through yet, you can't help yourself when you go!"

Wang Anshi was puzzled, "What do you mean?" ”

Wang Yan saw that his father was indeed old, and his thinking couldn't keep up, so he could only pull Wang Anshi to sit down and analyze him little by little...... In the past few years of pretending to be crazy and stupid, Wang Yan has really learned what it means to be warm and cold and the world is hot and cold.

He used to be smart, but what he lacked was nothing more than vision and heart.

After all these years, he didn't dare to say to what extent, but the conspiracy and calculation of waiting for leisure were no longer a problem.

As we all know, once the emperor enters the dying moment, whoever is by his side will have a greater advantage, and it can even be said that if you control the emperor, you can control everything, and the future edict, enthronement, and other major events can be decided in one word.

Throughout the ages, the change of imperial power is the most vulnerable time for the empire, if anyone can support the society at this time, it is a proper top policy, and it will be remembered in history. For example, Lu Duan, who is not confused about big things, is not a typical example!

Now that the emperor and the crown prince are in the hands of Wang Ning'an, this is a very intolerable thing for Empress Dowager Cao. How many years of losses she has suffered, and now that her son is going to die, and she has to be at the mercy of a foreign minister, she is not willing to endure it no matter what. But Empress Dowager Cao couldn't compete with Wang Ning'an, she could only launch Wang Anshi!

"Dad, if you go, it will be on behalf of the queen mother and the queen, mother and daughter-in-law will shoot together, of course Wang Ningan can't be the enemy, but in this way, you will become the representative of the harem, is it really good for you to be old?"

Wang Anshi took a deep breath, he just thought about the emperor's safety and the impact on the court situation, but he didn't notice that this thing was so dangerous!

It's old, it's old!

Wang Anshi became solemn, "Yuan Ze, what did you say about this incident, where is the biggest danger?" The Father wants to hear your speculation. ”

"Dad, first of all, Your Majesty suddenly fell into the water, no one can say who is involved...... But the child wants to say that the battle between the monarch and the minister has come, and it has appeared in the most tragic form, and the father wants to delay this battle, but I am afraid that it will be too late! ”

"Hmm!"

Wang Anshi let out a long breath and closed his eyes.

That's right, Zhao Shu must have been plotted, someone wanted to kill the king, and he did it so quickly, his original plan was in vain.

In this case, Wang Anshi's last reason for going out of the mountain has also disappeared, there is really little point in going south, and he will trap himself in it!

"Dad, there are two layers to this matter, one is that Your Majesty is in distress, King Yan will not be without action, how many people are involved, how many heads will be on the ground, no one can say well, so Daddy can't jump in for himself, for his sister, and for our family. This second, it is even more troublesome, in case His Majesty really dies, the crown prince succeeds to the throne, the lord Shaoguo is suspicious, and the danger is even more unpredictable. Rong Er'er dared to say that although the imperial power is high and Tai'a hangs upside down, the imperial power looks at a person after all. If the saint is prosperous in the spring and autumn period and his body is strong, he will naturally be able to subdue all kinds of small people, but in case the son is young and the power is handed over to the courtiers, this matter is ...... It's hard to say! ”

I have to say that setbacks do make people progress.

After Wang Yan finished speaking in one breath, Wang Anshi fell into deep thought.

If Zhao Shu doesn't die, it's okay, once the Son of Heaven dies, the situation of the strong minister and the weak king is inevitable.

No matter how Wang Ningan makes a move, he can't change it.

And this time the prince is only seven years old!

Not to mention more than ten years, it was the minister who did whatever he wanted.

Now there are only three possibilities, one is the harem forces represented by Empress Dowager Cao and Wang Qing, who control the Son of Heaven and the crown prince, listen to the government, and control the country before Zhao Ji becomes an adult.

The second is that Wang Ning'an once again took on the responsibility of teaching the new monarch and controlling the overall situation as a minister of care. When Zhao Ji grows up, he will return to power.

There is a third type, that is, Wang Ningan withdrew, but with other ministers, they should take care of their lives and trust orphans, and assist the new monarch together to stabilize the world.

Other than that, Wang Anshi couldn't think of any other possibility.

It's just that in these three cases, it seems that none of them is good!

"If the harem hangs the curtain, the hundred officials will definitely not agree, and a big battle will break out immediately, with swords and swords, and countless casualties...... The child was worried about this, so he didn't dare to let his father go south! Wang Yan analyzed, because the Empress Dowager Cao has no cards in her hand, and Wang Qing only has one card in her father's hand, she must invite Wang Anshi to go south.

But the problem is that Wang Anshi is too old, he can't fight the wolf-like minister, and he has no chance of winning.

As for the second way...... "Last time, many people hoped that King Yan could replace him, but King Yan abided by his duty, and the Son of Heaven was close to adulthood, so the people under King Yan did not launch it, so they handed over power safely." ”

Wang Yan smiled bitterly: "This time the prince is so small, even if King Yan is still loyal, can he stop it?" Besides, King Yan is not too young, and he has to teach the prince and preside over the overall situation, where does he get the energy? If he doesn't have enough energy, he will inevitably be used by his subordinates, and his apprentices are not fuel-efficient lamps! ”

"You're right!" Wang Anshi was very helpless, "What about the third possibility?" If other ministers were allowed to unite and assist the government together, wouldn't the world be peaceful? ”

Wang Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head again and again, "Dad, the worst thing is this one, if it really comes to this point, the child thinks that the Great Song Jiangshan may be ruined!" ”

"What? Is it that serious? ”

"Of course." Wang Yan said: "Whether it is the curtain of the harem or the regent of King Yan, they can represent the emperor, exercise power, and suppress hundreds of officials...... But once the ministers are auxiliary, they can only rely on their own people, and they will never have the same heart with the emperor! The child is not welcome, the murderer who assassinated the Son of Heaven may be in the middle of this pile of courtiers! The non-monarchs advocated by science and the protection of private property are not themselves, and there are many, many people, all of whom have this mind, and Dad can't help but check! ”

……

Of course, other people have seen what Wang Yan analyzed...... Including Wang Ningan's cronies, there are many people who have this idea, and even the old father-in-law Su Xun is involved.

"Brother Lao Quan, since the Son of Heaven was infected with malaria not long ago and his life was in danger, I won't tell you that there are many famous scholars and scholars who have found me...... They think that the Lord Shaoguo is suspicious, and it is a good time for the ministers to help the society! Wang Fang leaned over and said.

Su Xun's face was solemn, "Why did your brother become a lobbyist?" ”

Wang Fang was very embarrassed, "I'm old, I shouldn't have been involved, but the opportunity is rare!" In the past 20 years, Ling Zi presided over the change of law, and the Great Song Dynasty was prosperous. Wouldn't it be a great pity if it fell short just because the Son of Heaven died young! Therefore, I dare to suggest that Erlang can take advantage of this opportunity to take over the power, and then formulate laws and regulations to hand over the power from the emperor's hands to the political hall and to the hundred officials...... After all, it is too dangerous to entrust the rise and fall of the world to a family name! ”

Wang Fang has already made his words very clear, in a word, there is a large group of people who hope to take the opportunity to promote the restriction of imperial power and consolidate the results of the reform...... These people are not the same as financial groups and science, but they have to admit that their ideas have something in common.

Su Xun sighed deeply, grabbed his silver-white beard, and shook his head, "I can bring the words, but everything still depends on Erlang's opinion, you must remember, don't act casually, let alone make a big mistake!" ”

The entire capital, and even the entire Great Song Dynasty, are turbulent, full of murderous opportunities, and all kinds of forces are rapidly assembling to prepare for the next big war!

Although Empress Dowager Cao is a woman, she has seen so many storms and waves, and she still doesn't understand!

"Ling Zun is really calculating! The Vain Mourners always thought that he was a pure minister and a trustworthy minister, but they couldn't imagine that he was so weak! What a disappointment! ”

Wang Qing blushed when she was said, and her father refused to go south in a book, which made her very helpless, but she also sobered up a little, and things are really not that simple!

"Queen Mother, Daddy is too old, how can his body bear it! If the queen mother is willing, let Uncle Cao Guo go south! ”

"Cao Yan!"

This is a good choice, but the problem is that he is too weak, and he is too close to Wang Ning'an, with his ability, how can he deal with Wang Ning'an?

Empress Dowager Cao is simply crazy, why is there no important minister with enough weight around her to obey the dispatch!

After thinking about it, there were only two people left, one was Wen Yanbo of the Parliamentary Council, this old man was definitely weighty and cunning enough, and there was another one, that is, Zhang Fangping, the secretary of the Colonial Ministry.

Lao Zhang did to participate in politics, served as the imperial history of Zhongcheng, and was later sent overseas as a governor, after the death of Song Zhen, Song Qi, Pang Ji and others, Zhang Fangping wrote a letter, asking Ye Luo to return to his roots, bury the bones of the Great Song Dynasty, and said very earnestly. Last year, the imperial court officially transferred him back to serve as the secretary of the colonial department, with the intention of allowing him to retire.

Zhang Fangping also readily agreed, no, he just came back to Da Song for a few months. Lao Zhang is a few years younger than Wen Yanbo, but he has the same health skills and great health.

Empress Dowager Cao felt that if she wanted to take back the initiative, she had to use these old men, and if Wen and Zhang could go south together, they might be able to deal with Wang Ning'an...... While she was thinking about it, suddenly, a holy decree entered Beijing, and soon, King Yan would escort the holy car back to Beijing......
