Wang Yan came happily and returned in defeat. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He was very excited about getting Lin Zhao's handle, but Zheng Xia's words stimulated him a lot. Another betrayer, Lin Zhao is like this, and Zheng Xia is also like this......
Is there really a problem with changing the law? Wang Yan already had some doubts in his heart, but at this moment, he was shaken. What he and his father saw in Bianjing could only be the numbers on the books and the results reported by the officials below, how much water was there? Whether he likes to admit it or not, it is real.
How many officials below have befriended the prime minister's father in this way, and Wang Yan knows how much he knows. Especially my father's stubborn personality and can't listen to many different opinions at all. In addition, in order to show his support for Wang Anshi, Emperor Zhao degraded many officials who opposed the change of law out of Bianjing.
In such a situation, it can be regarded as a hint to all the officials in the world that offending Wang Xianggong will not end well. Therefore, even if they are not flatterers, the magistrate will abide by the golden mean and try not to offend the king. Therefore, it is good to get the report, but the following implementation may not be good.
Especially in order to complete the task, it is really possible for the magistrate to use excessive means, Wang Yan is not a gentleman like Wang Anshi, he knows the small actions in the officialdom very well. Therefore, it is entirely possible for Zheng Xia to say the same thing, not to mention that Lin Zhao said the same, most of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty said so, this is not three people becoming tigers, but "all mouths are gold", and now it is likely to be the truth.
Wang Yan was very depressed, and he had always been full of confidence and sincere admiration for his father. Especially when it comes to changing the law. His expectations are not small. I hope that my father can bring some changes to the Great Song Dynasty. But that's the case today. The worship and confidence in Wang Yan's heart are gradually collapsing......
However, frustration is only a matter of a moment, and today's Wang Yan is no longer what it used to be, and he is not the scholar who adheres to the precepts of the saints and takes the world as his own responsibility. It's a power-obsessed nobleman, and sometimes even a villain. Maybe the change can't change the Great Song Dynasty, and it doesn't matter at the moment.
Maybe it's just a situation for a while, and it will change in the future. Wang Yan may be comforting himself. These things are all illusory, and the most important things in his mind at the moment are power and status. The aspect of the father is the most important and should not be affected by these things.
All the power and glory of the Wang family come from this, and the possible turning point in the future reform is also based on this foundation. Therefore, the position of the father must be preserved in every possible way, and everything that has influence and threat must be strangled in the cradle.
At the same time, Lin Zhao and Zheng Xia's constructive suggestions have changed. Wang Yan didn't appreciate it, and there was still a kind of hatred in his heart. He always felt that the two of them had received great favor from the Wang family, so they should be loyal to the Wang family, and they should be foolish and loyal. should help the royal family in everything. At least it must not be dismantled.
Lin Zhao and Zheng Xia originally had good intentions, but Wang Yan obviously didn't appreciate it. In his opinion, it was a betrayal, an ingratitude. Such people must not be merciful, and must be taught a good lesson to let them know the end of betrayal.
Back at home, Wang Anshi had already returned, and Wang Yan hurried over to say goodbye. When I entered the study, I found that my father was taking a nap with his eyes closed, as if he was a little tired. Looking at his father's sideburns and a few more strands of gray hair, it was obviously caused by fatigue, Wang Yan couldn't help but feel a little sad for a while, he hadn't cared about his father for a long time.
However, Wang Yan does not feel that he is unfilial, he has been using his own methods to maintain his father's status and power, in his opinion, this is the real filial piety.
At this moment, Wang Anshi was resting, but Wang Yan still decided to disturb a little, and there were some important things that had to be shared with his father.
"Father!" Wang Yan stood at the door and called softly.
Wang Anshi opened his eyes at this time, saw Wang Yan at the door, and said with a smile: "Yuan Ze, did you come back from picking up the wind for your husband?" "As the master of the family, you only need to ask the house slave a little to know Wang Yan's movements. Wang Anshi himself is not opposed to his son's friendship with these young talents, but he is still more supportive.
He didn't use his son to entrap others, but he just felt that by doing so, he could let Wang Yan learn more, get close to Zhu Zhechi, and make progress. But what about the actual effect? Wang Anshi is very stubborn and strict with outsiders, but he is extremely doting on his son. In his eyes, his son Wang Yan is always the best child, and there is no flaw on his body, so he doesn't know that his son has many dishonorable methods in private.
Wang Yan was still a little hesitant, but since his father mentioned it, he couldn't hide it, so he just nodded lightly and said, "Yes, Lu Huiqing is the east." ”
"What? Isn't it fun? Wang Anshi noticed that Wang Yan's tone was very low, and there was no smile between his eyebrows, but he was a little worried, and he felt that he seemed to be in trouble.
Wang Yan swallowed: "Some unpleasant ......"
"Yuan Ze, what happened? Tell the Father to know! "Wang Anshi cares about his son very much, and it must not be a good thing to make his son so low.
"Zheng Xia, he ......" I don't know if I can't say it, or if I did it on purpose, Wang Yan hesitated for a long time before telling the matter as it was.
Wang Anshi's face became more and more gloomy, Zheng Xia actually opposed the Qingmiao Law? How so? Since early in the morning, he has paid a lot of attention to Zheng Xia and is very fond of him. This son also lived up to expectations, and was successfully admitted to the Jinshi, Wang Anshi valued this person very much and intended to promote him. I just want to have more experience and cultivate a talent for changing the law.
Zheng Xia did not disappoint, he did a very good job in Gwangju, and Wang Anshi was very pleased. Recently, Zheng Xia came to Bianjing after his term of office, and he also paid more attention, thinking about finding an opportunity to find a way to let him stay in Bianjing and help himself. Today, Lu Huiqing and Wang Yan went to drink together, Wang Anshi was very pleased, thinking how familiar these people are with each other, and they can cooperate happily in the future.
But the reality is ......
Wang Anshi never expected that Zheng Xia would change and speak out against the Qingmiao Law, and it was so fierce. This was something he had never thought of anyway, just like when Lin Zhao spoke out against it, it was a situation, which was too unexpected. And this is a huge harm to Wang Anshi, he doesn't care how the other ministers in the court oppose him, he doesn't take it seriously at all, and he has even become accustomed to it.
But Lin Zhao and Zheng Xia are different, especially Zheng Xia, who began to have contact in the early years, but it is said that he grew up and knows the roots. I don't want to have such a change all of a sudden, and I oppose the Seedlings Law...... This is the person who is most loved and trusted, stabbed himself, and sprinkled salt on the wound, which is quite painful.
And it also affected Wang Anshi's mood, he was very conceited and stubborn, he would not have any doubts about the change because of Lin Zhao and Zheng Xia's opposition. He insisted that his change was correct and beautiful...... But why did they react the way they did? Why is this happening?
Wang Yan also can't bear to play, sometimes even if he is aware of the truth, he doesn't know how to tell his father. Many times, the truth is so cruel, my father is a humble gentleman, how can he bear so much? What if he knew about something? It is very important to do the dark things yourself, and to maintain your father's reputation.
He was very dissatisfied with Zheng Xia's matter today, and he was already planning to retaliate, so he had to inform his father Wang Anshi about this matter. Of course, Wang Yan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so when he told him again, he added a little oil and vinegar, how unbearable Zheng Xia was, he was ungrateful, he deliberately created such an atmosphere, hoping that his father could reduce his guilt because of this. At the same time, it will also be less concerned and easier for you to move......
"Father, don't think about the ungrateful anymore!" Wang Yan softly comforted.
Wang Anshi shook his head lightly and said: "I don't believe it, I don't believe that my husband will be like this, you send someone to ask for a clear understanding!" "Maybe this incident hit him too hard to accept.
Wang Yan hurriedly said: "Father, Li Dongmei is also here today, and he also heard it clearly, Zheng Xia has been in Gwangju for several years, and he has long forgotten his father's kindness. It's just hearsay, and there are many bad comments about the change, and such a character is really unbearable. ”
"Overwhelmed!" Wang Anshi deeply thinks about this, he dotes on his son, and firmly believes that his son will definitely not lie, and there must be Zheng Xia who has a problem with such words. Li Dongmei was also present at that time, Wang Anshi attached great importance to this strategist, with the two of them here, the weight was enough, and the problem naturally lay with Zheng Xia.
Wang Anshi wanted to ask Zheng Xia for an understanding, but after thinking about it, why bother? It can only be said that he has lost his eyes, this is just an ungrateful and shameless person!
"Father, this kind of person must be severely punished in order to set an example, and it can be regarded as a reminder for everyone, so as not to be too blinded." Wang Yan wasted no time in making a suggestion.
"Severe punishment, how to punish severely?" Wang Anshi is a gentleman in the end, although Zheng Xia is ungrateful to himself. But after all, he was an official of his court, and he had never made mistakes, and it seemed inconvenient for him to declare personal vendettas.
Wang Yan said with a smile: "Zheng Xia's return to Bianjing is to report on his work, and he is also planning the next step, and he wants to stay in Bianjing as an official." Since this is the case, then it is enough for him to be fulfilled, when he came back today, his son found that the position of An Shangjian was vacant, and Zheng Xia was naturally competent. ”
"Isn't it going to be too much?" Wang Anshi was always a little hesitant.
"Father doesn't have to worry, in fact, this is also a kind of grinding, maybe it can make him repent, and it will still be of great use when the time comes!" Wang Yan hurriedly added, secretly proud in his heart. (To be continued.) )
