[The third update, ask for red tickets, collect. ] Only today did I find out that the title of this volume was mistaken. The sixth volume of the first month was written as the sixty-second volume, which is really confusing. 】

Because of this discussion, this meal was eaten for a long time. After the meal, Han Gang said goodbye from Zhang Jian's house. I happened to hear the more drum dong dong a few times, and knocked the point of the second quarter of the first shift. According to the algorithm of later generations, it should be after nine o'clock. If it was in Qinzhou, whether it was inside or outside the city, it would have been dark at this time, looking at the stars and moonlight, listening to the wild cat's barking, except for the husband and patrolling the city, there would be no popularity. But in the city of Tokyo, which never sleeps, it's just the time when the excitement begins.

The area around Sweet Water Lane is the downtown area in the east of Kaifeng City, not to mention anything else, there are nearly 100 brothels in Little Sweet Water Lane alone, which can attract thousands of guests every night. Not to mention the restaurants and shops nearby.

The market is brightly lit, as bright as day, and the people are surging and the sound is like a boil. The sound of music floated out of the small sweet water alley, and the silk and bamboo were like wisps, endlessly. Turning his head to look into the alley, he saw a lantern hanging high, and under the door, the figure was longing. At this glance, people kept passing by and hurriedly walked into the alley.

Many of the prostitutes rented horses and rushed over, and at the beginning of the shift, there were always more people coming and fewer people going, which made it much more convenient for Han Gang to rent horses.

Riding on a horse, there is a hitchhiker gossiping with the renter while looking at the bustling street market around him. Eating, shopping, doing small business, full of people.

Even though he can see it every night these days, every time he sees the colorful nightlife of Tokyo, Han Gang can't help but feel a sigh of emotion in his heart. Even after a thousand years, the only places that can compare to Tokyo at night are some first-tier big cities, or the most prosperous streets in the center of ordinary cities.

Keep your head up. At the zenith, Sirius, tired of seeing, was still twinkling, only faintly overwhelmed by the lights around it. And the other stars, naturally worse than Sirius, disappeared completely without a trace.

Astronomy and geography are all said together, and according to the theory at this time, the division of the stars in the sky corresponds to Kyushu on the earth. If you want to learn astronomy, you must know geography. But Hangang's level of geography is excellent, but astronomy can't even tell the names of the stars.

This is mainly because Han Gang was too deeply influenced by later generations, and when he saw Sirius, he thought of Canis Major, and when he saw Orion on the side, he couldn't remember whether the bright red star was Betelgeuse or Betelgeuse. I just vaguely remember that the belt composed of the three stars in the center of the constellation Orion is called the three stars of Fulushou.

It would be nice if the Chinese star map could be transmitted to the West and replace the 48 constellations of ancient Greece with the 38 walls and 28 constellations. Han Gang looked up at the endless sky hidden by the lights and thought like this.

Lowering his head, Han Gang returned to reality. His official identity has been determined, but there is a problem on Wang Shao's side, and he now has to face Qin Feng Jingluo and the deputy chief of soldiers and horses two thousand miles away.

But it's not that hard!

Dou Shunqing and Li Shizhong are crazy, and Han Gang only has this idea in his mind now.

Regarding the stumbling block under Qin Feng's strategy against Hehuang, although Han Gang had expected it, he didn't expect the reason to be so absurd. Dou Shunqing's approach is too unintelligent. There is only one hectare and forty-seven acres of wasteland measured on the 300-mile river, isn't it crazy?!

In fact, there is only one hectare of wasteland in Wang Shao's mouth, and the lies made up by Li Shizhong's shamelessness and Dou Shunqing's stupidity are alarmist and appalling, and they deceive the king to this point, Wang Shao is really to blame! But such a lie can't deceive discerning people at all, in fact, it is easy to debunk, and Han Gang is happy to see them go crazy.

But Han Gang also understands that repeating a lie a thousand times may not become the truth, but repeating it three or five times can brainwash people, the key is to see who is telling it. He talked about this from experience, whether it was in his past or present life, he had it. If the people around Zhao Ji said this in unison, don't think that the Great Song Dynasty Emperor can see thousands of miles and see everything. Once Zhao Ji really believes it, Wang Shao will never end well, and he will be unlucky.

However, as long as there is a little noise in the chorus in Zhao Ji's ears, it will be completely different. Wang Shao was personally promoted by Zhao Ji, and his "Ping Rong Policy" was also handed to Zhao Ji first, and Zhao Ji was optimistic about this strategy before handing it over to Wang Anshi. Zhao Ji himself is also looking forward to Wang Shao's success.

From a human point of view, it is unlikely that the emperor would like to hear bad things about the strategy of opening up the river. People always hear what they want to hear and believe what they want to believe. If there was a different voice in the one-sided attack on Wang Shao, then Zhao Ji would hesitate, he would not make a decision immediately, and he would definitely send his cronies to Qinzhou to confirm.

In this way, Wang Shao has a buffer time, and he can calmly defend himself for the lies of Dou Shunqing and Li Shizhong. As the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, Qin Feng will inevitably be consulted if Liu Xizao is borne, and if nothing else, he should also say a word for Wang Shao. Once the two sides start a verbal war, it is not possible to quarrel with a result in a short period of time. Once Wang Anshi comes out to look at the matter, this turmoil will inevitably be resolved.

So it depends on Cheng Hao and Zhang Jian, I don't know if they can transcend the factional dispute and buy time for Wang Shao. Han Gang tapped lightly on the saddle, his fingertips flicking on the leather, making a clicking sound. The renter stopped his mouth in amusement, and the little official who rented his horse was thinking about things. Shake the reins and go to the front to lead the way.

Han Gang is quite relieved about Cheng Hao and Zhang Jian's character. With his understanding of the personalities of the two these days, I believe that they will not echo Dou Shunqing's statement with their conscience. Even if they won't support Wang Shao, there is no problem in upholding fairness and sticking to the center, and Wang Shao only needs the imperial court to send someone to Qinzhou to measure the fields fairly, so that the facts can speak.

Speaking of which, although the anti-reform faction is opposed to the loss of equals and seedlings. But in fact, Wang Anshi's opponents are divided into two categories, one is the conflict of interests, and the other is the dispute of ideas, and they cannot be confused.

The conflict of interests comes from the class whose net worth interests have been infringed upon, mainly scholars and scholars who own a large number of industries, clans, and wealthy businessmen in Beijing. The Seedlings Loan hurt their lending income and affected their land annexation, and the equalization method made it impossible for the wealthy merchants in the capital, mainly the heads of the guilds, to make profits by monopolizing the trade routes into Beijing, so they hated both the Seedlings Law and the Equalization Law.

And the battle of ideas is those Confucian scholars who really think that it is wrong to compete with the people for profit. They believe that competing with the people for profit is not dignified by the court, and that Qingmiao should be loaned, but should not charge interest, at least less interest. There are not many of them, but each of them is very famous. Zhang Jian and Cheng Hao are one of them, and even Zhang Zai thinks the same way.

Han Gang was not surprised by this. Zhang Zai is a master of Confucianism, proficient in military affairs, astronomy and geography, but it does not mean that he is good at financial planning and governance. At that time, Zhang Zai and his disciples were still discussing how to restore the Zhou Shi's Jingtian system in order to curb the land annexation that is now intensifying. Although Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi are different from the Zhang Zai school and have different views, they also worship the Zhou system in general, and also want to restore the well field.

Han Gang almost wanted to laugh, it was actually the Ida system!

Don't look at what era it is now. Although the retro system and the Zhou rites are the lifelong wish of every true Confucian disciple - the so-called 'depressed and literary, I follow the Zhou'. But after all, the times are different, in ancient times, 900 acres of land per mile, the land was divided like the word 'well', and according to the existence of public land, it was equally distributed to eight or nine households. And with the current situation, where there are so many plots of land that are divided into civilian fields as well fields, it is already very good to be able to inventory the hidden fields, and the average tax is already very good.

Although the two factions have different reasons for opposing the change, they are aiming at the same goal, so they are united in the same spirit and sing a chorus of opposition to the change. Idealists like Zhang Jian and Cheng Hao can't see through the conflicts of interest hidden under the undercurrent, and they only know that Lu Dao rushes to the front for his own ideas. Characters like them, often very famous and upright, no one will suspect that they are fighting for their own interests, and it is easy to believe their words. The interest strata took advantage of the situation and stood behind to set off waves of impact and change.

For Han Gang, the conflict of interests is irreconcilable, and he can't expect Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongbi to say good things about Hehuang Tuobian, who Wang Anshi admires, because this matter cannot give them any benefits, but will make Wang Anshi's position more stable. On the contrary, Zhang Jian and Cheng Hao can persuade with reason.

The gentleman is in righteousness, and the villain is in profit.

Han Gang chuckled, this truth, the sage was really right.

Without delaying on the road, Han Gang and Li Xiaoliu's master and servant quickly returned to the post house.

As soon as he entered the door, Yi Cheng greeted him, nodded his head for a while, and smiled flatteringly into a flower: "Han Guanren is back?" Have you eaten it? Do you want the villain to tell the kitchen? ”

Han Gang glanced at him in surprise, this person in charge of the Chengnan Station, although he had been respectful to himself for a few days, he had never groveled so much tonight. Earlier, he came back from Liunequan and officially got an official position, and he didn't see anything unusual about him. And looking around, the eyes of the officials sitting in the hall were also envious and jealous.

"Is anyone coming?" Han Gang only thought of this reason.

Yi Cheng nodded and handed over two famous posts, "One is from Wang Dashen, and the other is sent by an old man Zhang himself." ”

Wang Dashen?! Han Gang's heart moved, and he took the name card and saw that the first book was indeed Wang Anshi. With the name of the governor in his hand, it is no wonder that the post man of the Chengnan Post has a respectful face and is careful left and right.

The other is Zhang Yu, who seems to have finally arrived in Tokyo with his slow convoy. Most of the officials who entered Beijing lived in Chengnanyi, and it was natural that Zhang Yu could find them.
