No. 305 Fifth Letter 1
Just when Hua Xianqi was training in the Yellow River with great interest, on this day, Cai Lanling, who had always seen the head and the end of the dragon, suddenly came to the lion village again.
After getting the news, Hua Xianyi happily went straight to the Justice Hall.
After seeing Cai Lanling, Hua Xianqi wanted to grab his shoulder to express his excitement, but Cai Lanling was allowed to hide, so he had to ask in a wistful voice: "Brother Lanling!" Why haven't you come to the Lion Village for so long! Does Childe have a mission? ”
"Not bad!" Cai Lanling nodded and said, "The master ordered, let you gather 3,000 elite subordinates, disperse to Zhongtiao Mountain Lotus Mountain to wait, and sweep away all the bandits or bandits who robbed the road along the way." Moreover, you will hand over all the things in the Lion Village to the old village owner. ”
"Why is that?" Hua Xuanyi, the chief scoop handle, had just become addicted, and suddenly asked him to give up this position, and the boss was naturally unhappy in his heart.
Cai Lanling couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and asked coldly, "What?" If you don't want to, forget it! The master said, if you don't want to, let me go to other people in the Lion Village to do this, if you don't want to, then you can make your own decisions about the Lion Village in the future! Anyway, you are also a character now, Lu Liangshan is always a scoop, it's really amazing! This is the original words of the master, how? ”
Although Hua Qiyi is the big owner of the lion village and the chief scoop of Luliang Mountain, he also divided the original old brothers into various village owners according to their skills, so there is a saying that Cai Lanling is looking for other people. Although those people are all brothers of the flowers, if they learn that this is Cai Dao's order, they will break their heads and grab the errand they are willing to accept regardless of the reason!
"Brother Lanling, the Sprinkle family didn't mean that, just complained." Although Cai Dao's words did not have a threatening tone, he knew that once he really had to leave this matter alone, his brothers would immediately rush to take over the errand, leaving him alone in the lion village, so he quickly denied it.
"If you have any complaints, you can send them again halfway, the master's affairs are the most important, you should hurry up and gather people now!" After Cai Lanling finished speaking, he didn't speak anymore, but just stared at Hua Qiyi coldly.
Hua Xianqi scratched his head, glanced at Cai Lanling, and had no choice but to deal with this important matter in person immediately.
Speaking of Cai Lanling, the reason why he left Bianliang City earlier than Cai Dao was that he arrived at Lion Village later than Cai Dao and his party. It was because he went to the northwest region according to Cai Dao's instructions to send letters to several elders or celebrities who were close to Cai Dao.
Originally, this first letter was to be sent to the old man Sun Jue, who was sitting in Jingzhao Mansion.
However, halfway through, Cai Lanling met Su Shi's family, who had been ordered to return to Beijing.
In the post station, he secretly gave Cai Dao's letter to Su Dabeard.
As long as there are two points in the letter,
The first is to persuade Su Shi that after entering Beijing, he must be cautious, if he is not used to the actions of the ministers, he can resign or take the initiative to seek foreign benefits for the benefit of the people, which is better than staying in the capital and being kicked out again. Pay special attention to be sure to keep your mouth shut.
Second, let Su Shi persuade Su Zhe to let him take the initiative to resign after entering Beijing, don't be greedy for power, and continue to follow the conservatives to confuse the government.
His younger brother's temperament is not as straightforward as his eldest brother's speech, in history, he was involved in the government of Yuanyou, and was regarded as a member of the Yuanyou Party, after Song Zhezong took power, he was repeatedly reprimanded. Sima Guang died early, but he set the tone of Yuanyou's politics early, with the Empress Dowager in control, Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu on the side, Su Zhe, a centrist, would not be able to do much even if he became the prime minister.
In later generations, because Sima Guang died, he threw Su Zhe on Su Zhe for handing over the four villages in the northwest to Western Xia in exchange for peace, and the abolition of the new law was also completely abolished by Su Zhe when he was prime minister.
This pot is really not something that Su Zhe can afford to carry alone, you must know that in the Great Song Dynasty, except for Zhao Pu, a traitor, there has never been a prime minister who is a lone minister, and even Cai Jing in history was also made a few times by Song Huizong. Could it be that Su Zhe did all these things alone? You must know that Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongshu are Sima Guang's real allies. Su Zhe was able to enter Beijing to serve as prime minister, as long as it was because of his own reputation, if it was about his ability to govern, he was not as good as his eldest brother Su Shi?
Then, Cai Lanling immediately took his horse to Jingzhao Mansion.
When he arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, the old man Sun Jue heard that Cai Dao had sent someone to deliver the letter, and he actually met Cai Lanling in person.
After reading the letter written by Cai Dao to himself, the old man held the letter in his hand, and his hands trembled when he saw it, and he couldn't help but cry, choked up and couldn't speak.
The contents of the mind say three things.
The two things are speculation about the ruling dynasty, that is, Sima Guang and the Empress Dowager arranged for the old man Sun Jue.
Song Shenzong died, Sima Guang had just ascended the throne, but he did not make a statement to the empress dowager, and recalled the old man Sun Jue, who had made great contributions to the use of talents in the Guanzhong region and solved the big problem of food shortage in Guanzhong and even the entire northwest.
There are two reasons for this,
1. Of course, I know the old friends of Sun Jue and Wang Anshi, and I take special care of Cai Dao, a junior. If he returns to Beijing, it will inevitably hinder him from driving Cai Dao out of the capital, as well as some other measures, so he will simply be out of sight and out of mind.
Second, it is jealous and jealous, Sima Guang actually can't see the people who have made great contributions to the Fa Changing Sect enter Beijing, otherwise, Cai Dao would not be at a young age, Song Shenzong just died, and he was driven out of the capital.
Cai Dao also knows the temperament of the old man Sun Jue himself, once he returns to Beijing, the end is not much stronger than Su Dabeard, the only advantage and disadvantage of his old man is that he is now old, if the court really wants to move him, he will be a big deal to avoid trouble, and even resign and retire, and the court will not be able to forcibly dispose of this old minister of the former emperor who has made great contributions.
Cai Dao suggested that Sun Jue that if the ruling government of the current dynasty can allow the old man to continue to stay in Jingzhao Mansion, then the old man must not go against the rulers, the new law or anything is actually not important, and the previous policy will not waver, as long as the income of the poor people under his jurisdiction is steadily increased.
However, Cai Dao also said in the letter that the ruling authorities were likely to be jealous of the old man's achievements in Jingzhao Mansion, transfer him to other places to continue his post, and send conservatives to come to Jingzhao Mansion to pick peaches. If this is the case, the old man will simply return home immediately, open a college in the old man's hometown Gaoyou, teach and teach apprentices, and he will subsidize all the expenses of the old man.
After all, Sun Jue is now nearly seventy years old, and to put it mildly but very practically, he can live for a few more years. Cai Dao's grandfather Wang Anshi is seriously ill and is about to pass away, and although Zeng Gong is young, his health is not as good as Wang Anshi's? If it weren't for Cai Dao's constant attention to Zeng Gong's recuperation of his body, it would be difficult to say whether he would be able to leave Beijing alive?
If Sun Jue was transferred around as a magistrate as before, it would be better to return to his hometown immediately, open a large-scale academy, teach and educate people, and benefit the township.
By the way, Wang Gong, who has a deep relationship with Cai Dao, is also a high-ranking person.
And the reason why Old Man Sun Jue cried was that Cai Dao deliberately mentioned a person at the end of the letter.
This person also has a certain relationship with Cai Dao.
It is Sun Jue and Wang Anshi's former apprentice - Wang Ling.
This poet is also a Gaoyou person, although he is young, he would rather indulge in the mountains of books and the sea of learning, and he is not far from the imperial examination, but he himself has no ability to pay tribute, or rely on Wang Anshi's funding to marry a wife and have children, and his wife is the daughter of Wang Anshi's uncle Wu Rui. But in the end, he fell ill and died of poverty at the age of twenty-eight.
Now there is only a young widow who is struggling to carry a child who has no father at birth, but fortunately it is a boy, and in those days, the boy was the pillar of a family. This Wang Wu is also a tough woman, neither asking for help from her mother's family, nor asking for help from Wang Ling's cousin, and her sister-in-law, who is also widowed, and her son guarding the family's few acres of thin fields to survive.
He was full of talent when he was alive, but when he died, he was so lonely and surrounded by walls. The bereaved families are also suffering from the erosion of poverty. Although it is said that everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced, the untimely death of Wang Ling has always made Sun Jue and Wang Anshi feel very sad.
The third thing, Cai Dao told Sun Jue that he should also write to dissuade Su Zhe, even if he entered Beijing this time, he should not hold the position of government. Today's Bianliang City is a big fire pit, which will not only be burned by the future food crisis, but also be hated by Song Zhezong, which is completely worth the loss.
As for Zhang Shuye and Zong Ze, if Sun Jue really had to be transferred from the post of prefect of Jingzhao Mansion, he would no longer have to go to the imperial court to specially recommend or arrange them. Their future is still at the disposal of the imperial court.
