In the vertical arch hall, there are only two people left, Ouyang Xiu and Zhao Zhenjunchen, and the last time this was the case, it was during the Qingli New Deal...... Zhao Zhen suddenly sighed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Uncle Yong, you're old."

Ouyang Xiu sighed, "The minister is indeed old and unbearable, and after only a few months in Beijing, the minister wants to go back to the Six Arts Academy to teach." ”

Zhao Zhen laughed, "Are you bored, tired, or disappointed?" Right? ”

Ouyang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and Zhao Zhen smiled, "Looking at that little guy's unexpected strength, he must have thought that I was going to repeat the mistakes of the past and take him to vent his anger to others." ”

Ouyang Xiu finally reacted, this "family" is not Liaoguo, but the Great Song Dynasty, and it is his own person!

Zhao Zhen suddenly raised his head and asked with a smile: "Uncle Yong, you and I are honest, did you complain back then?" ”

If he were another minister, he would definitely not tell the truth, but Ouyang Xiu was different in the end.

"Your Majesty, the old minister really can't figure it out, but in the past few years, the old minister has figured it out."

"Oh? What did Uncle Yong figure out? ”

"Your Majesty, back then, the ministers, and Fan Xianggong were wrong, the ministers were too superficial, and Fan Xianggong was the same." Ouyang Xiu smiled bitterly: "The ministers summarized the disadvantages back then and put up the top ten innovation strategies. It seems to be to the point, but it's not worth mentioning. ”

"How?" Zhao Zhen said curiously.

"The common people have a saying, called poor and lowly couples mourn everything, the two of them live a quarrel, the concubine is not in harmony, the brothers turn against each other, the father is not kind, and the son is not filial...... These questions are of little use just by telling them how to do it, and the key is still in the word poor...... The so-called poor ** plan, rich conscience, life is good, the average family will be harmonious, even if there are some conflicts, it is easy to solve, on the contrary, if the life does not go on, it is inevitable that there will be chaos. ”

Ouyang Xiu said with emotion: "The ministers only thought of curing the symptoms back then, but they didn't have the ability to cure the root cause, and they also caused chaos in the world and disputes everywhere, which was really misleading the country and the people and themselves, and the old ministers have figured it out in recent years." ”

Zhao Zhen didn't expect that Ouyang Xiu would have such insight, and after thinking about it carefully, it was really reasonable.

"Uncle Yong, don't treat me as an emperor, we are old friends, after all, there are not many people who can talk to me." Zhao Zhen said in a low voice: "Then what do you think of this time compared to the Qingli New Deal?" How to decide! ”

Ouyang corrected his color and said: "Your Majesty, this time is completely different from the Qingli New Deal. ”

"What's the difference?"

"Qingli's new deal is wrong and can't be done, but this time it's right and can be done!"

Ouyang Xiu's determined tone surprised Zhao Zhen, and he smiled: "Uncle Yong, do you really think of Wang Ning'an?" ”

Ouyang Xiu did not deny it, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, there are street lights in Ping County." ”

With no beginning or end to a sentence, Zhao Zhen hesitated, and said with a smile: "You mean seeing is believing?" ”

"That's right, hundreds of thousands of disaster victims, in the eyes of anyone, are burdens, all disasters, but Wang Erlang is very capable, in less than a year's effort, a city that is one-fifth the size of Bianliang has appeared." Ouyang Xiu also had to admit that he had witnessed a miracle.

Ouyang Xiu's drunken eyes can see through the world.

In the past, when the imperial court built a city, it had to first raise bricks, tiles and wood, and then organize the construction, spending countless food and money, and worked hard to build the city.

This process is very long, there are no ten or eight years, no results can be seen, the imperial court has to bear huge pressure, recruit people, the slightest carelessness will cause a civil uprising.

The Qin Dynasty built the Great Wall and the Sui Dynasty built the Grand Canal, both of which caused terrible chess skills and directly overthrew the two great dynasties......

When I got to Wang Ningan, I changed the logic.

He first found a pillar industry, whaling, and began to develop production around the industry, absorbing workers, and forming a settlement. After having the prototype, he managed to get the city, and the commercial value was excavated at once.

From this moment on, Wang Ning'an began to dazzle the business, he used the expectation of the future, sold the wasteland at a high price, and used the capital raised to build his city.

In turn, the city is getting more and more beautiful, attracting more and more businessmen, the easier it is for him to borrow money, and constantly increase the industry to Pingxian County, absorb workers, and he also spares no expense to improve the treatment of workers, at first Ouyang Xiu didn't understand, but next, these workers want to build houses, furniture, get married, and educate...... The huge demand has driven countless industries, and Pingxian has miraculously appeared......

From beginning to end, Wang Ningan did not reach out to the imperial court to ask for money, he only got two privileges...... Ouyang Xiu saw the power of policy for the first time, and he also understood that the future could also be sold as a commodity, and capital had unimaginable power, which could turn stones into gold and turn decay into magic.

"Your Majesty, the old minister said a crazy word, all generations of scholars have studied the mind and studied the learning of the sage, but this way of the sage may not be able to enrich the country and strengthen the army."

Ouyang Xiu's implicit words, in fact, his mode of thinking is also changing rapidly, if there is no Ouyang Xiu's support, the Six Arts Academy will not add so many practical courses, all in all, many scholars have noticed the shortcomings of Confucianism, and they are all trying to put forward new doctrines, hoping to unify the rivers and lakes.

In the original history, the science represented by Ercheng and Zhu Xi finally gained a dominant position and harmed for thousands of years.

In this time and space, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu and others have begun to rebuild another more pragmatic and useful discipline, and the future academic stage of the Great Song Dynasty will inevitably be more colorful and fiercely contested.

"Uncle Yong, do you mean that Wang Ning'an can help me to enrich the country and strengthen the army?"

Ouyang Xiu said: "His approach may have merit, as for the effect, it is not easy to assert it, so let's give it a try." ”

"Hahaha!" Zhao Zhen suddenly stretched out his finger and pointed at Ouyang Xiu.

"You, Uncle Ouyang Yong, have also learned to beat around the bush. I think he's better than too many people. Zhao Zhen sighed: "When something happens, some people are in a hurry to get rid of their crimes, some people are in a hurry to get off the books, what are their thoughts, I am not stupid, I know a thing or two." Only Wang Ning'an, who is bent on maintaining the overall situation of peace talks, is really thinking about the Great Song Dynasty, and he is sincere, although he is hard-hearted, he can't help but be moved. Such a pure minister and loyal minister, if I don't protect it, no one will be loyal to the Great Song Dynasty in the future. ”

Ouyang Xiu never imagined that in Zhao Zhen's heart, Wang Ning'an's status would be so high!

With this evaluation, Wang Ning'an can go sideways in the future, and whoever wants to be unfavorable to him will have to bear Zhao Zhen's anger.

Ouyang Xiu was both surprised and delighted, and suddenly Zhao Zhen's words changed, "In the past few years, I have become more and more sloppy in government, so that many people no longer take me seriously, is it too much of a failure for me to be the emperor." ”

Even with Ouyang Xiu's boldness, he didn't dare to accept this kind of taboo words, his heart was beating wildly, it seemed that Zhao Zhen was going to act, at present, it was light to remove a few ministers, and the officialdom would have to be completely reshuffled.

I just don't know where Zhao Zhen is going to start......

Wang Ningan didn't know the situation in the palace yet, and he put all his heart on the side of the pavilion.

Hurriedly arrived, and found that the pavilion had been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. Don't get me wrong, it's not that Wen Xianggong is so bold that he wants to meet each other, but to protect these Liao envoys.

The people of Tokyo, who rushed to hear the news, jumped to their feet and scolded the Liao envoy bitterly, and they brought stones, clods of soil, rotten vegetable leaves, and rotten eggs...... It's simply heavily armed, ready to go to war at any moment.

In contrast, in the pavilion, it is even more tense and full of murderous atmosphere.

Yelu Huage changed into armor, even Zhang Xiaojie carried a sword, they brought more than 200 people, they were waiting for the battle, the war horses were ready, and they were ready to rush out at any time to kill.

Wang Ning'an witnessed everything, and his scalp was numb.

"What are you doing? Is there any testimony? Go tell the stupid people in the Ministry of Rites, take out the strength of your usual mouth, and persuade the people to go back, half an hour, before the people disperse, Your Majesty will naturally punish the crime! ”

After Wang Ningan finished speaking, he walked through the crowd and arrived at the entrance of the pavilion.

Before he could break the door, several wolf tooth arrows poked out from the wall and aimed at Wang Ning'an.

"Don't go any further, or you'll get your blood splattered on the spot!"

Wang Ningan gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Go and invite Lord Yelu and Master Zhang, I have something to say!" ”

The soldiers guarding the gate didn't listen at all, "We adults don't see any of us, get out of here!" ”

Wang Ning'an's little temper also came up, and he shouted loudly: "Even I am gone, do they still want to go back alive?" ”

The pavilion is not big, and Yelu Huage and Zhang Xiaojie can hear it clearly.

Yelu Huage gritted his teeth, "Sure enough, it's a poor dagger, so I said, these Han people are not good things!" He blurted out, but suddenly remembered Zhang Xiaojie, it's not good to come together.

"Master Zhang, I didn't mean you, I meant ......"

"Okay, my Lord Yelu, what are we all like, I will blame you!" Zhang Xiaojie didn't have the heart to care about his words, for fear that the angry people of the Great Song Dynasty would rush in and beat them into meat puree.

Yelu Huage's face was solemn, "Lord Zhang, the two countries are in a confrontation, and they will not be killed." The Great Song Dynasty prides itself on etiquette, and they may not dare to do this kind of thing. ”

"Alas, even if they don't dare to do it, we can't be trapped in the pavilion, we can last two days with food and drink, whether we go back quickly, or deal with the Great Song Dynasty, there must be a charter."

After the incident, countless people surrounded the pavilion, and the two of them were also stunned.

Yelu Huage hesitated for a long time, "So you must meet Wang Ning'an?" ”

"At least listen to what he has to say." Zhang Xiaojie said helplessly.

"Okay, let him in, but ......," said Yelu Huage viciously, "He is only allowed to come in alone, and he is not allowed to carry any weapons with him." ”

"Yes."

It didn't take long for Wang Ningan to walk in from the outside, he walked quickly through the main hall, and arrived at the second floor of the courtyard, where the six beaten and killed entourages were placed, four of them were still packed in wooden basins, Wang Ningan almost vomited when he saw it, he endured his nausea, didn't say a word, and cried loudly......
