Wen Yanbo was beaten, and I heard that it was very miserable.

The sedan chair was dismantled, and the people were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, but fortunately, the forbidden army guarding the palace gate was desperate to save the old prime minister, otherwise he would have lost his life.

When he arrived home in embarrassment, Wen Yanbo closed the door and thanked the guests, and he couldn't afford to get sick.

"It's too embarrassing, the old man is not alive, Sven is sweeping the floor!"

In the midst of a wail, Wang Ningan entered Wen Yanbo's ward, and sat next to Wen Xianggong, looking down, Lao Wen was indeed miserable, one eye was swollen to the size of a steamed bun, blue and black, and the whole half of his face was big.

"Xianggong Wen, everyone knows that you are pitiful, we are pooling money!"

"Scraping together money? Treat the old man? ”

"I bought you ropes, daggers, and crane-topped red...... Aren't you going to die! Take your pick! As soon as Wang Ningan's words fell, he saw Wen Yanbo's cannibalistic expression, stretched out his hands, and rushed to Wang Ning'an to arrest him.

"You little rabbit cub, the old man fought with you!"

Wang Ningan hurriedly dodged and said with a smile: "I still have the strength to beat people, it seems that Wen Xianggong's injury is not serious, and the little brother is relieved." ”

"Phew!"

Wen Yanbo smacked him hard, and then pointed to his heart.

"The injury here can't be seen, the old man has been an official for decades, and he has never been so ashamed! I can't wait to ...... immediately" Wen Yanbo wanted to say death, but remembering Wang Ning'an's words just now, he could only hate and say: "Resign immediately!" The old man wants to go home and hug his grandson, and he will no longer be the prime minister, so the old man will go home and never stay for a moment! ”

said that he really told his son to pack some bags and beg to go.

"Wait!"

Wang Ningan hurriedly waved his hand, "Xianggong Wen, I want to ask for advice, do you think you are wrong to change the official system?" ”

Wen Yanbo hesitated for a long time, hung his head and said: "Of course it's right, my Great Song Dynasty official system is chaotic, there is no division of responsibility and power, prevarication and shirking of responsibility, and low efficiency, so it should have been changed a long time ago." ”

"That's right! Since it's right to change the official system, then the brother was beaten, and it was your fault? ”

"! From ancient times to the present, how can anyone who has been beaten be wrong? Do you deserve to be beaten? Wen Yanbo rolled his eyelids, full of anger.

"That's right!"

Wang Ningan smiled: "Since my brother is right, why do you want to resign?" If you resigned, wouldn't it be right and wrong? Those people won't let you go. ”

Wen Yanbo lay on the hospital bed, panting.

He laughed suddenly, and for a moment he was agitated, and coughed again, his old face flushed.

"Jingping, we are not three-year-old children, you came here to play tricks, I want to persuade the old man to stay, and send you two words: dream!"

Wen Yanbo said angrily: "The old man doesn't care if it's right or wrong, anyway, I'm old and frail, exhausted, and I don't want to care about so many bad things anymore." I also asked Jing Ping to explain to the sage, I, Wen Yanbo, an old cow and an old horse, can not be driven, I beg Your Majesty to give the old minister a way to live for the sake of the monarch and the minister, otherwise, I, I can only die! ”

Speaking of the excitement, he coughed again.

Wang Ningan didn't believe Wen Yanbo's nonsense at all.

This old guy just got a singing team from Jiangnan last month, and I heard that it cost 100,000 yuan! He can't do anything, who will believe it!

You must know that Wen Yanbo in history is a veteran of the Four Dynasties, who has lived for more than 90 years and has been the prime minister for 50 years, and is definitely a rare species at the demon level.

On his fingers, he can still toss for decades without a problem!

Wang Ningan never dared to underestimate Wen Yanbo.

"Xianggong Wen, I went to see Fan Xianggong for the first two days."

Wen Yanbo didn't know what he wanted to say, so he simply closed his eyes and pretended to be a dead dog.

"The teacher's health is getting worse and worse, his eyes can't see clearly, and it is difficult to speak, maybe there are not many days left...... He asked me about changing the law, and I told him that the imperial court implemented the Qingmiao Law, the Fangtian Uniform Tax Law, and wanted to reform the official system and the military system, and the sage was resolute...... Master instructed me that the old and the new are always life and death, this is a battle of life and death, and you must not leave anything to chance, do not expect others to let you go, and do not pray for mercy from the enemy! Only by defeating them will you not be ruined! When Lord Shi Kai-shek was almost killed by the coffin, after he left the capital, he was displaced, running around, if it weren't for the Six Arts School for a while, I was afraid that he would have been tossed to death, and the literati's heart was black! ”

The more Wen Yanbo listened, the more disagreeable he became, every sentence was like a knife, poking him directly in the heart!

"Wang Ning'an, do you want to say that the old man will also be ruined, tossed to death by others, and he will not be at peace when he dies!"

Wang Ningan squinted and looked ahead, but faintly spit out eight words: "The past does not forget the teacher of the future!" ”

These eight words blocked Wen Yanbo's throat at once, making the old guy change his face and shudder.

……

As a teacher of hundreds of officials, he was beaten by officials, and Wen Yanbo was discredited and lost face.

Originally, Wen Yanbo was not a staunch reformer, but when he got to this point, he thought about taking the opportunity to resign and retreat to the mountains and forests. Of course, as a political animal, Wen Yanbo will not be willing to sink like this. He thought that if he waited for the right time, he might be able to make a comeback!

But Wang Ningan's words made Wen Yanbo frightened.

Either way, he's been classified as a reformer...... From the fate of Fan Zhongyan and these people, Wen Yanbo knows that there is no right and wrong, no justice, no right or wrong, and no lower limit!

Some are just success or failure, the winner is the king, and the loser is Kou!

It's that simple!

"Wen Xianggong, let's open the skylight and say something bright, if you retire now, it means that the reform of the official system has failed, the old school has counterattacked, and how many people will have to quit and return home, as the prime minister, will the end be better than my master?"

Wen Yanbo's old face flushed, and he closed his eyes in pain.

Although the Qingli New Deal was a lot of movement back then, it was still too far behind compared to now.

"Wang Xianggong, why are you forcing the old man? Your Majesty is determined, even if the old man is gone, there will naturally be someone else to replace the old man, and with your Wang Xianggong in charge, the change will be successful. ”

"Hahaha, who can replace Wen Xianggong?" Wang Ningan smiled: "Is it Wang Anshi? Or Liu Xin? Or is it Sima Junshi? Wen Xianggong, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach. Can't a husband be without power for a day, and you will be willing to retire? These juniors climb up, do you still have a chance? ”

Ahem......

was told that he was in his heart again, and Wen Yanbo could only cough.

To be a man, you just can't be caught in the weakness, we are good at everything, but we are too greedy for power and unwilling to be lonely.

He was not only afraid that he would fail to change the law and be made to end up with Fan Zhongyan, but also worried that his juniors would overtake in the corners and beat the old master to death...... "Alas, Erlang, you are trying to force the old man to death!" ”

"Definitely!"

Wang Ningan said with a smile: "I am helping Wen Xiang's name go down in history!" How can a huge change succeed without a minister at the helm? In my opinion, you should think it through and stop half-heartedly and hesitating. ”

"I ......" Wen Yanbo shook his head painfully, and said after a while: "The old man will make you ruined sooner or later, as the thousand men point to!" ”

As he was talking, Wen Jifu suddenly ran in.

"Father, Your Majesty has come to visit you personally."

Zhao Zhen is here!

Wen Yanbo was excited, he looked at Wang Ningan meaningfully, and found that this kid had a vague smile on the corner of his mouth, Lao Wen understood in his heart that Ya and Zhao Zhen were singing a double reed!

This pair of monarchs and ministers are embarrassed, and they want to force themselves to get on the thief ship!

Wen Yanbo pondered for a moment, then suddenly jumped up from the hospital bed and shouted, "Take it quickly!" ”

……

"Kuanfu!"

When Zhao Zhen saw Wen Yanbo's miserable appearance, he was also startled, hurriedly grabbed his hand, and said through gritted teeth: "These chaotic ministers and thieves can simply be killed!" Is there still a court in their eyes? Actually outside the Xuande Gate, beating the prime minister, they are slapping me in the face! Just rest assured, I will definitely give you anger. ”

Wen Yanbo said that he didn't dare to say that he didn't dare to sit down, and after sitting down, Wen Yanbo thought for a while, and then said: "The saint loves the old minister, and the old minister is engraved in his heart. ”

Zhao Zhen was puzzled, "Kuanfu, why did you say this?" ”

"Sage, please think about it, if you lay off tens of thousands of officials at once, no matter what, after all, it has moved their jobs, and it is inevitable that you will be unhappy in your heart. As the leader, the old minister worked hard to promote the change of the law, and it is understandable that they blamed the old minister. Now that he has beaten the old minister, his anger has disappeared, and he should go to the office of the new yamen, and he will go home when he should go home...... After this, they will not make trouble again. ”

Zhao Zhen and Wang Ning'an, one after the other, ran over, one sang white-faced, the other sang red-faced, just afraid that Wen Yanbo would pick on him, and finally built a good political hall structure, if Wen Yanbo quit, he really couldn't find a second candidate to replace him for a while...... If you get caught up in personnel disputes, it will delay the entire process of reforming the law.

Neither Zhao Zhen nor Wang Ningan wanted to see this scene.

Obviously, Wen Yanbo took the overall situation into account so much, which made the emperor quite pleased.

"Kuanfu, just like this, I have wronged you."

Wen Yanbo hurriedly said: "The old minister is deeply blessed by heaven and deserves to be blamed, there is nothing remarkable. Within three days, the old minister returned to the council of the political affairs hall, and the official system could not be stopped for a moment, and there should be no shortage of officials who should be cleaned up. The old minister is willing to put on his liver and gall, bow and die with all his might! ”

"Okay, Kuanfu is really my Guan Zhong!"

Zhao Zhen happily stroked his palm, and he immediately ordered: "Take a pen and paper." ”

Wen Jifu hurriedly hugged a roll of Chengxintang, which is the famous paper treasured by Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Zhao Zhen pondered for a long time, splashed ink, and immediately wrote down the eight words "the dry city of the country, the prestige of virtue".

The emperor's words are not given casually, the Wang family once got the four words of loyalty and kindness for generations, and now it is still hanging in the ancestral hall for people to admire.

Lao Wen got eight words, which is even more noble.

Wen Yanbo trembled with excitement and sobbed.

"How can the old minister be so praised, by His Majesty's praise, the old minister will do his best to assist His Majesty, create the Great Song Dynasty Zhongxing, liver and brain, do not hesitate!"

……

The Wenfu staged the deep affection of the monarch and the minister, and when the news spread, countless officials were indignant!

"It doesn't work to find Wen Yanbo, then we can only beat the drum, let's find a saint to theorize directly!"
