Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Vertical Arch Hall (I)

"Encounter! Have you heard that the appointment has been made, and Wang Tixing will enter Beijing to serve as the judge of the three divisions, and he will enter Beijing in a few days! ”

Gu Yan's hand holding the pen trembled, and he hurriedly put down the pen in his hand: "When did this happen?" ”

"That's the news that just came today. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Wang Anshi is about to enter Beijing! Since a few days ago, Wang Yaochen, the champion of the fifth year of Tiansheng, the head of the household department, and the governor of the political department, died in office due to illness, and the officials of the three divisions have been transferred, but I didn't expect Wang Anshi to be transferred to Beijing because of this. Since the release of the "Four Books", the relationship between Gu Yan and Wang Anshi has long been no secret, and after hearing the news, Gu Yan's heart was also quite happy, and he got up and said: "Thank you Zhao Xiaoshu for telling me!" ”

Knowing the news of Wang Anshi's family entering Beijing, Gu Yan had the heart to greet them, but unfortunately he didn't know their itinerary, it was difficult to send the letter, and he didn't know when he would arrive in Bianjing, so Gu Yan had to dispel the idea of going out of the city to greet him.

Time flies quickly, Gu Yan heard the news of Wang Anshi's family entering the city this time, and also inquired about the residence, he planned to visit immediately, and thought that their family had just now, and there must be a lot of miscellaneous matters, so I went to place it at this time, but I was afraid that it would be inconvenient. So he asked someone to send a letter, and only made an appointment to visit him five days later.

However, before Gu Yan Yiyan went to visit, an inner eunuch came over, only saying that the emperor was summoned in the Vertical Arch Palace, seeing the envious eyes in this secret pavilion, Gu Yan suddenly felt quite stressed, he followed this inner eunuch, walked all the way, and walked to a secluded place, Gu Yan took out a piece of silver and stuffed it over: "I don't know what Your Majesty is looking for me?" "I'm a little apprehensive in my heart, it can't really be the princess of the kingdom! Although the princess is noble, gorgeous and dignified, she really does not want to do what she wants.

The inner prison was a little surprised to take Gu Yan's silver, weighed it slightly in his hand, and the smile on his face deepened a little, although the inner prison of this dynasty also has examples of leading troops and supervising the army, but except for the occasional intervention in the military and prison, the rest of the things are all the world of civil officials. What's more, he's just an ordinary messenger eunuch? Those civil officials always pretend to be upright and upright, but they don't know how many dirty things there are behind their backs. I didn't expect this little tanhua to be quite good. Although this silver is not much, it is better than nothing, and in this life, isn't it also to save some silver?

The inner eunuch laughed and said, "What the official family thinks, our family doesn't know, but I heard that Lord Wang will report on his work soon...... It seems to have a very thick fold. ”

After hearing such a sentence, Gu Yan was relieved, it seemed to be related to Wang Anshi, in fact, as long as it was not the princess of the Kingdom of Gun, Gu Yan could rest assured. Then he thanked the inner supervisor beside him, and walked to the arched hall.

The vertical arch hall was quite empty, and there were only a few inner eunuchs, guards, and palace maids standing. Gu Yan saluted, standing under His Royal Highness, Renzong's voice was quite gentle, but he didn't distinguish between joy and anger, and looked at Gu Yan: "I heard that you are studying every day in the Secret Pavilion, and when I see it today, I will be in good spirits." ”

Gu Yan arched his hand and said: "The Secret Pavilion has a lot of books, and it is my great luck to be able to support myself during the period. ”

I only heard Emperor Renzong laugh: "You sit down." ”

Gu Yan sat down as he said, and Renzong said again: "Wang Jiefu has entered Beijing, you are close to him, you must also know, today he returned to Beijing to report on his work, but he was not in a hurry to report on his work, but handed over such an excerpt, you can take a look." ”

Another inner supervisor brought this fold and sent it over. Gu Yan took this fold - this fold is really thick, and I am afraid that there are more than 10,000 words. Gu Yan looked at it word by word, usually reading books, just a little slack, now it is in front of the emperor, and the emperor is very likely to use this to test himself, and he must not take it lightly.

Gu Yan looked at it for a while before closing the fold in his hand as it was and handing it back. When Renzong saw it, he patted the fold lightly with his hand, and said, "You are studying in the Secret Pavilion, and I have never written less about the strategy, and there are some cutting-edge meanings in the words, but I understand it a little now." What do you think of Wang Jiefu's excerpt? ”

Sure enough, Gu Yan quickly went through the content of the fold in his mind, found out the main point, and then spoke: "The minister thinks that although Lord Wang's book is a bit severe, his loyalty and patriotism are beyond doubt. What's more, his words are quite reasonable. ”

"Oh? Do you also think what Wang Jiefu said is reasonable? ”

"Not entirely." Gu Yan said cautiously,

When Renzong heard this, he suddenly became a little interested: "Tell me about it." ”

"It's just a few misgivings." Gu Yan said, "The ministers of the king have the ambition to change the world, and he said that the trend of changing the world lies in talents, and if this is really the case, it will inevitably change the imperial examination." During the Qingli period of that year, Fan Wenzheng also proposed to reform the tribute, but the world's scholars, dedicated to studying hard for the imperial examination, I heard that this imperial examination, Ouyang Gong deprecated the Taixue style, which attracted the attack of many scholars, and even worse, it was to Fan Gong's mansion to vote for the sacrifice. Reform the style of writing and is like this, let alone change the imperial examination? ”

When Renzong heard this, he thought of the Qingli New Deal of the year, and then thought of Fan Zhongyan, and couldn't help but be silent, and didn't speak, only.

Gu Yan said: "Lord Song's words of 'three redundancies' and 'three fees' mentioned above are also quite pertinent. When the minister heard that at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, there were only a few thousand internal and external officials, but now there are more than 30,000 officials, and the number of soldiers has surged several times. Although my dynasty is rich, but if it continues to grow like this, although it is okay for a while, what will happen to the future generations? If the king says that the soldiers should be generous and honest, it will inevitably increase the burden on the treasury, and in the will of the king, they should be severely punished, and they should be punished with righteousness and etiquette, and 'increase the punishment for minor crimes', which will inevitably lead to a mass attack, and with His Majesty's wisdom, although he is not afraid, if he resists in pairs, it will inevitably damage the national strength......"

Seeing Gu Yan talking eloquently in His Royal Highness, Emperor Renzong couldn't help but be a little surprised, originally just a whim, called Gu Yan over, but he didn't expect that Gu Yan, a young man who had not yet been weak, also had some understanding of the government. He originally thought that although the policies written in Gu Yan were good, they were not very outstanding, and some of the acupuncture words revealed in them were only influenced by Wang Jiefu, but now it seems that this is not the case. Renzong sighed in his heart, in the end, he was a hero and a boy.

After Gu Yan finished speaking one by one, Renzong said again, but this time with a little smile: "According to your opinion, these ideas of Wang Jiefu are useless?" ”
