Chapter 183: The Pros and Cons of Seedlings
The person who came was the little girl's parents, a family of three from Fuyang County, to the West Lake to enjoy the lanterns, but because there were too many tourists, they were separated on the way.
The couple was looking for their daughter all over the world, and they were very anxious, and when the child's mother was still crying, the official messenger of Qiantang County appeared. Asked if they had lost their daughter, someone over there found one, so the parents hurried to confirm if it was their daughter...... They got their wish and saw their daughter, but they didn't expect to see the Hangzhou General Judgment and the Qiantang County Order at the same time. The couple are just ordinary country gentry, and their lives are quite rich, but their status is average, and it is inevitable that it is a little unnatural to suddenly see two high-ranking officials. But the thing that shocked them even more was in the back, hearing about their daughter's actions just now, the couple was shocked, why not close their mouths!
Although the daughter is somewhat knowledgeable and smart, they have long been accustomed to it, and they think there is anything special, and they don't care. didn't expect her daughter to be so capable and make such a big move. What surprised him even more was his daughter's courage, dozens of dollars were not a small amount, and more importantly, she actually made a bet on herself.
At a young age, not to mention being a girl, it would be too bold to do such a thing. It seems that it must be controlled, otherwise I don't know what else she will do in the future? What should I do if I can't get married in the future?
"Chaoyun, you're messing around......" Although this Wang Yuanwai loves his daughter, he is also a little unhappy, of course, he should still be worried.
"Daddy, this is thirty yuan of money, you can treat Xiaofei!" Wang Chaoyun pointed to the copper coins on the ground and said. I saw that her eyes were full of guilt, and at the same time there was a kind of innocent kindness, which made people like it at a glance...... Wang Yan stepped forward and said: "Your daughter is very kind, this matter is also to help them, don't blame too much outside the king, just guide her." ”
"Yes, Mrs. Su's teachings are in mind!" Wang Yuanwai already knew their identities, so he was very humble. Although he was worried and even scolded, as a person who had read the books of sages, Wang Yuanwai also knew that his daughter's kind behavior was very good, and he appreciated it a lot.
"Not only is she kind, but Little Sister Chaoyun is also bold and careful, and she is very confident, such a powerful quality is not comparable to others!" Lin Zhao quipped: "Teach well, maybe you will be a heroine in the future!" ”
Wang Yuanwai's wife shook her head secretly, a girl's family is still quieter. The daughter is bold and does things unexpectedly, which must be guarded against. lest you become more and more bold, and you may cause some trouble in the future.
Lin Zhao commanded softly: "Okay, today's matter is also complete, you can go back!" However, in the future, it should be noted that children must not be allowed to walk around and leave the sight of adults casually. ”
"Okay, thank you Su Tongju, thank you Lin County Order, we took our leave......" Then they took the child and left.
Su Shi looked at the background of the child's departure and said, "This girl is really extraordinary......"
Hearing Su Shi say this, Lin Zhao immediately remembered something, but after a moment, it didn't seem to be very clear. His eyes fell on the faces of Su Shi and Wang Yanzhi, and he suddenly came back to his senses.
This girl is called Wang Chaoyun, that's right! Wang Chaoyun ...... Seeing Su Shi and Wang Yanzhi, Lin Zhao also remembered a woman with the same name and surname - Wang Chaoyun.
In the original history, in the seventh year of Xining, Su Shi's wife Wang Yanzhi, who was in Hangzhou at the time, bought a woman named Wang Chaoyun from the song and dance class and accepted her as a maid, when Wang Chaoyun was only twelve years old, twenty-six years younger than Su Shi.
When Wang Chaoyun grew up, he was about in Huangzhou and was accepted as a concubine by Su Shi. Su Shi also named her "Zixia".
When Su Shi was forty-nine years old and Wang Chaoyun was twenty-two years old, the two gave birth to a son. Su Shi was overjoyed and said to his friends: "Yunlan has little sleeves, and he has recently given birth to a son, and he wants to hear it." The child was named Su Dun, and his milk name was "Gan'er", and when he was born and took a bath according to the custom, he wrote "Washing Children's Play": "Everyone raises a son and wants to be smart, and I have been mistaken by being smart all my life." I hope that the child will be foolish and reckless, and there will be no disaster and no difficulty to the minister. ”
It can be seen that Su Shi loves and expects his young son, but there are always some things in this world that make people regret and sad. There were unforeseen circumstances, and Su Shi's youngest son, Gan'er, died of illness when he was eleven months old. He cried: "I am forty-nine years old, and I have lost my young son in custody. The young son is really my child, and the corners of his eyebrows are already raw. Unexpectedly, the history of the book is followed. Shaking his head but pear, it seems that he is not ashamed. I am always happy, and I am happy with this smile. Suddenly it was taken away, and I was tired of bad karma. The clothes and wages are free from vulgarity, and they are extinguished. When I returned, my arms were empty, and the old tears were like water. I can still wipe away my tears, and I should forget when I say far away. Mother can't hear her crying, and wants to die with you. Therefore, the clothes are still suspended, and the milk has flowed into the bed. Feeling this forgetfulness, I will be stiff at the end of my sleep. The middle-aged man said that the dream was detailed. Storing medicine is like a hill and a mountain, and you need a prescription when you are sick. Will still love the blade, cut this old intestine. Knowing that the delusion wants to be self-reflexive, and a mourning is sent to the aftermath. ”
Of course, the saddest thing should belong to the child's mother, Wang Chaoyun, Su Shi once had such a record: "I can still wipe my tears, and I should forget when I say I am far away." Mother can't hear her crying, and wants to die with you. Therefore, the clothes are still suspended, and the milk has flowed into the bed. I feel that I want to forget my life, and I will end up stiff ......"
From this, it can be seen that there is a woman named Wang Chaoyun who is not ordinary, she is Su Shi's concubine. Together with Wang Fu and Wang Yan, they are the three women with the most important vitality of Su Shi.
When Su Shi was most troubled, the concubines around him left one after another, but Wang Chaoyun has been with him. She is Su Shi's concubine, and she is Su Shi's confidante, Su Shi wrote the most poems to Wang Chaoyun, calling her "Heavenly Maiden Vimo".
It is said that when Su Dongpo was demoted to Huizhou, Wang Chaoyun often sang the words "Butterfly Loves Flowers" to relieve Su Shi's depression. Whenever Chaoyun sang "The willows on the branches blow less", he suppressed his melancholy, was overwhelmed with sadness, and cried and stopped.
Su Shi asked why, and Chaoyun replied: "What the concubine can't do, 'there is no grass sentence at the end of the world'." Su Shi laughed: "I'm sad in autumn, and you're starting to hurt spring again!" Unfortunately, Chaoyun also died of illness in Huizhou before Su Shi. After Chaoyun's death, Su Shi "never heard this word again for the rest of his life" and has been widowing. From this point of view, Su Shi's life is not happy, and every woman he loves leaves him first, leaving a lonely old age.
In accordance with Chaoyun's last wishes, Su Shi buried him in the pine forest under the Great Holy Pagoda of Qizen Temple at the southern foot of the lonely mountain of West Lake in Huizhou, and built six pavilions next to the tomb to commemorate. Playing the ancient tune alone, every time it rains, I think about it".
It can be seen from this how much Su Shi loves Wang Chaoyun! In his previous life, because his girlfriend liked Su Ci, he knew a lot about Su Shi's love story, so he still knew a little about this Wang Chaoyun.
So is the little girl I met today Su Shi's concubine? When Wang Yanzhi bought it from Hangzhou, he was only twelve years old. At that time, it was the seventh year of Xining, and now because of Lin Zhao's crossing, many things have changed, some have been advanced, and some have been postponed.
For example, the time when Su Shi served as the general judge in Hangzhou was advanced to the second year of Xining. After Zhengdan, it has been three years since Xining, and the difference in years does not seem to be very big.
This little girl who guessed the lantern riddle looked less than ten years old, judging from her age alone, she was indeed very similar, and it was very likely that she was the Wang Chaoyun who gave birth to Su Shi's young son a few years later.
It seems that it is really fate, it is really a coincidence, you can meet a concubine many years later when you go out to play, Su Shi's luck and sexual encounters are definitely not ordinarily good.
And this little girl is very smart, obviously she has read books, and she is very similar to Su Shi's concubine in the record. I know a lot about Su Shi, and there used to be such a story...... Su Shi said that he retired from the court, had dinner, walked slowly, and said to the attendant: "What is in your generation and Taoism? A woman said: "It's all articles", Su Shi disagreed.
Another said, 'Full of knowledge.' Poe didn't think it was right.
When it came to Wang Chaoyun, the answer was: "The bachelor is not in the right place." Su Shi laughed. ”
It can be seen that there is still a tacit understanding between their "husband and wife", and they also love each other!
It can be seen that this dynasty cloud is still quite famous. Qin Guan also specially wrote a song "Southern Song" for Chaoyun: The mist is misty and the spring is lost, and the light is dissolved. When is it easy to go to Wuyang. I am afraid that the king was the king of Xiang in his previous life. For the time being, Qingge is stationed, and he is busy because of the twilight rain. Returning at a glance and breaking people's intestines. The air envoy Lantai Gongzi endowed Gao Tang.
The only difference is that Su Shi's concubine was born in the dust and met at a banquet by the West Lake. There is also a saying: the water is bright and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy. If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, light makeup is always appropriate. This song "Drinking the Lake After the First Sunny Day" was written to Wang Chaoyun, a dusty woman.
But this dynasty is still young, and she is not a dusty woman, so there are still some differences. This kind of thing is really uncertain, since we met, it can only be said that it was accidental. The world is so wonderful, some things are so coincidental, so unexpected, but there is a providence in the dark...... Xing Chaoyun and Su Shi crossed ages, and their mutual love affair was doomed from this time on!
But Lin Zhao forgot one thing, that is, history is changing after all, and every person, every small action or behavior may lead to changes, especially the traversers.
The time when Su Shi took office in Hangzhou has changed, and the time when Wang Yanzhi met Wang Chaoyun has also changed, so will the situation in the future also change? How has it changed?
The incident by the West Lake was a small episode, and no one cared. After returning to the county government that night, Lin Zhao and Mu Sihong had a good affection, and they were so unhappy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ just like that, Xining's three-year New Year's Day is over.
The officials' holidays are over, and no matter whether this New Year is good or not, it is time to start a busy year of government affairs again.
A series of dispatches and edicts of the imperial court gradually spread to various places, because Han Qi wrote against it, and Emperor Zhao Ji believed that the ability of the regulations and regulations of the three divisions coincided with the three divisions, and there was no need for a surname, so he immediately issued an edict to abolish it.
When many people think that the official family is shaken by the change. Zhao Ji immediately made a big turn and canonized Wang Anshi, the governor of the government, as the prime minister.
The prime minister is an official above 10,000 people under one person, and his status and power are extremely great. No matter what others think, in the eyes of Emperor Zhao Ji, Wang Anshi can be said to be well-deserved as the prime minister. More importantly, because the three departments of regulation no longer exist, the reform lacks an overall leadership body.
Emperor Zhao Ji thought about it for a long time and decided to turn the entire Great Song Dynasty into a reform and law change institution, first of all, the personnel arrangement, not so obscure, not so clear.
As a result, Prime Minister Wang Anshi became this guide, and all institutions of the entire Great Song Dynasty would be obliged to serve the reform and reform of the law.
Lin Zhao, who was far away in Hangzhou, could see that this was a kind of compensation from Emperor Zhao Ji to Wang Anshi, to be precise, a kind of compensation for all the officials of the reformers. Although the institution is gone, they will still insist on doing things and insisting on supporting the object, as long as Wang Xianggong does not fall.
Now that Wang Anshi is the prime minister, this signal is obvious enough, and the reform method is proudly and quickly implemented. The emperor was no longer satisfied with the simple trial of the seedling method in only a few regions, after all, it would take a year to delay, which could be said to be a waste of time.
Zhao Ji felt that the trial implementation of the green seedling method was almost over, although there was a little problem in the middle, but it did not affect the overall situation. Therefore, it was decided to increase the promotion area of the seedling method, hoping to achieve more obvious results. As a result, the entire Liangzhejiang Road has also become the experimental field of the Qingmiao method, and the scale has expanded from the original two counties of Qiantang and Yuhang to the whole territory of the Liangzhejiang Road.
Emperor Zhao Ji specially sent a message to Lin Zhao, asking him to start implementing the Qingmiao Law as soon as possible, which made Lin Zhao a little panicked and a little anxious.
So Lin Zhao found Yu Xuan in time to help immediately clarify the content and method of the implementation of the Seedlings Law, as well as the countermeasures to related problems and the arrangements for related matters.
"Childe, the so-called green seedling method......" Yu Xuan explained: "Households in Fanzhou County can go to the local government to borrow cash or grain before the summer and autumn harvest every year to subsidize farming. The borrower is rich and poor, and ten people are guaranteed to check each other. The amount of the loan is divided into five classes according to the assets of each household, and the first-class households can borrow 15 yuan each time, and the last-class households are consistent. In the current year, the loan will be repaid with the spring and autumn taxes, and the interest will be 2 cents per period. This is the most important rule of the imperial court! ”
"What do you think about this, or do you have any precautions?" A long time ago, Lin Zhao assigned a character like Yu Xuan. It is to let Yu Xuan, who understands financial management and law, carefully study the Seedlings Law, analyze the pros and cons, and find problems from it, especially in the specific implementation process.
Although Lin Zhao didn't know much about the Qingmiao Method in his previous life, he knew that many of the contents of Wang Anshi's transformation method were actually desirable. The reason for the failure is that there is a problem in the specific implementation process, so that the change is out of shape, and it fails in the end.
If these problems can be identified before, with a little attention, the situation may be much better. But Lin Zhao has a lot of things to do every day, and he doesn't know much about it, so he entrusts it all to Yu Xuan. But he forgot that Yu Xuan hadn't had an easy time recently, so he really worked a little hard Master Yu!
"Childe, I think the two most important points for the implementation of the Qingmiao Law are that the most important thing to pay attention to is that the allocation cannot be forcibly suppressed, and the second is the ...... of interest and principal collection" It is obvious that Yu Xuan has studied it carefully.
I have to say that Yu Xuan's research is really to the point. This is a big reason why the implementation of the good green seedlings law has failed.
In the implementation of the Seedlings Law, the forced apportionment was very serious. In order to ensure the recyclable surname of the green seedling money, the new law originally stipulated that "more than five households are guaranteed by one guarantee", and everyone negotiated how much money to borrow, and everyone guaranteed each other. In the process of implementation, it became that the government forced the rich households to provide guarantees for the poor households of all levels, and apportioned the green seedling money to the households of all levels. When collecting money, if the poor are unable to repay it, they ask the rich to take it, which eventually leads to the misery of all the people. In normal times, the peasants can barely support this kind of apportionment, but once they encounter a famine, they can no longer sustain it, and they go bankrupt one after another. However, the government is still relentlessly pursuing and persecuting, and the affected farmers are bankrupt, and the cases of selling their sons and daughters and wives are endless.
The imperial court has repeatedly ordered that it must not be suppressed, and the people "want to take it, and if they don't want to be strong", the interest will only be taken in two, why do the local officials turn a deaf ear? When Wang Anshi was an official in Yinxian County, he once did an experiment similar to the Qingmiao method, "lending grain to the people, and paying off the interest", and the effect was very good, why did it go wrong when it was promoted to the whole country?
In fact, the reason is not difficult to understand. What Song Shenzong and Wang Anshi wanted was the success of the new law, the prosperity of the country, and the well-being of the people, but what many officials wanted was their own promotion and wealth. In order for these officials to work hard to implement the new law, Wang Anshi must give them some sweetness. Those who opposed the new law were demoted from Beijing one by one, and the officials who were positive about the new law were rewarded one after another with the promotion of officials to knighthood.
This idea is good, and if you want people to work, you naturally need to give some incentives, so that people can do it. However, the incentives for political officials must be done with caution. Because there are many responsibilities for political axe officials, many of which are "soft" items that are difficult to measure directly, if only one or a few of them are easily measured, then officials will inevitably focus all their energy on these few items, and ignore other responsibilities that have no incentives or weak incentives.
Especially when officials wield enormous power and oversight of that power is limited, they may even pursue high performance in their incentivized duties at the expense of other areas of malfeasance.
Naturally, the duties of the magistrate include not only ensuring that the people live and work in peace and contentment, but also implementing the Seedlings Law. But if Wang Anshi only incentivizes the implementation of the Seedlings Law, but does not or cannot provide incentives to ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment, the officials will inevitably only care about the implementation of the Seedlings Law and ignore the lives and deaths of the people.
Even for the implementation of the Seedlings Law, there are many minor responsibilities, including strictly enforcing the rules of not suppressing allocation and not raising interest rates, as well as distributing as much Seedlings money as possible and recovering the principal and interest when due. It is very difficult and difficult to motivate the implementation of the regulations, and all Wang Anshi can see is often the figure of how much Qingmiao money has been distributed, how much money has been recovered, and how much profit has been earned.
Therefore, there is a small problem in the fundamental concept of changing the law!
