Wang Anshi and Han Jiang are old friends, and the two were not only the same scholars; Back then, Han Jiang was working under Prime Minister Bao Cheng, and he met Wang Anshi who wanted to find a teacher for Wang Pan, which led to the story of Bao Zheng recognizing him as Wang Pan's righteous son. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAfter many years, Han Jiang is already the third envoy in charge of finance, and Wang Anshi is waiting for him.

Of course, Han Jiang understood Wang Anshi's thoughts, and when he waited for Wang Anshi to finish asking, he smiled and said, "Jiefu, are you worried that the saint is still young, and it is inevitable that the heart of reform is young and impulsive?" I think you can dispel this concern. Besides, since you have come to the capital, I think you understand better that all kinds of ills in the imperial court can no longer be changed. As for what you want to ask, I'll tell you one thing and you'll understand. Some time ago, the emperor summoned me to the palace and asked me about the state situation. Guess what I said? ”

Wang Anshi smiled and listened quietly to what Han Jiang said, this was the issue he was most concerned about.

Han Jiang said: "I thought at the time, will I not have to be the three envoys after saying this. So I said to the Holy One: In my great Song Dynasty's treasury, there are only a bunch of ledgers. ”

"Ahh Wang Anshi couldn't help but sigh when he heard it, although he had long imagined that the treasury was tight, otherwise there would be no Song bonds, but he never imagined that this would be the case.

Han Jiang smiled: "What? Jiefu, you didn't expect that, did you? But then again, I have to say that Ling Lang has a way to raise military expenses so quickly. ”

Wang Anshi waved his hand modestly: "The dog often has wonderful ideas, and he always lets him succeed by luck, so don't mention it." I would like to know what the Holy One did when he heard what you said. ”

Han Jiang replied: "When the saint heard this, he built a number of warehouses in the palace, and then made a poem himself, using each word as the name of the treasury, and vowed to fill all these warehouses. Although the Holy Lord did not dismiss me as the three envoys, it also made me feel too much pressure. With so many warehouses, I really don't know how they can be filled with just those broken ledgers? I said, Jiefu, I think what the Holy Lord needs now is someone who can turn the tide. I heard that even Fu Bi and Sima Guang couldn't satisfy the saint! ”

Wang Anshi became interested when he heard this: "What kind of poem did the saint write?" ”

"Listen, fortunately I remember: the five seasons are lost, and the fox is blazing; The art ancestor made the state, and the thought was punished. set up an inner government, based on recruiting soldiers; Great-grandson Baozhi, dare to forget his ambition. ”

"Good!" Wang Anshi couldn't help but shoot the case: "I didn't expect the saint to have such a great ambition in his heart, it seems that I didn't come to the capital in vain." ”

Han Jiang pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "Are you okay?" Thirty-two warehouses, if they are full of gold and silver, then there is no doubt that the Great Song Dynasty is rich? But I can't think of any way to conjure up so many silver taels? ”

Wang Anshi looked at Han Jiang: "How much it can be filled depends on the determination of the saint." But he can do a good job of this poem. You see he said: There is a lack of scheming among the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, so that the barbarians are rampant. My ancestors founded a dynasty, and I want to salvage this decadent situation. Therefore, the treasury was opened as the basis for recruiting troops and raising salaries. As a descendant inheriting the ancestral business, how can you forget the will of your ancestors. Shengshang, this is to imitate Song Taizu's practice of 'sealing the pile library'! ”

"The heavens will descend on Jiefu! Then why don't you hurry up and enter the palace to face the saint? Han Jiang said with a smile.

Wang Anshi's face was a little embarrassed: "This is not good!" The official position that the Holy Lord summoned me back to Beijing to seal was a Hanlin Scholar, unless the Holy Lord made an exception, how could I face the Holy alone? ”

Han Jiang patted his head: "Oh, that's right, I think the saint is influenced by Ling Lang, thinking that everything is informal." I forgot such an important thing, and I was still there wondering why you didn't go to meet you. I'm going to go up to the Ming Sheng, and he won't decree how you enter the palace!" Han Jiang suddenly realized, and hurriedly returned to the palace to reply to Zhao Xuan.

In this way, it is really not that Wang Anshi's shelf is big. If Wang Anshi's temper was followed, he might still not be able to take up his post, but Hou Shuxian and Cai Jing returned to Linchuan and brought a handwritten letter from Wang Bei, persuading Wang Anshi to return to the capital first, and said three suggestions. Wang Anshi felt that Wang Fang's suggestion was right, and his desire to reform was so strong that the second son's suggestion gave him more confidence to a certain extent. Even Wang Anshi thought about it, even if the father's and son's suggestions were not realized, after all, he hadn't seen his two sons for a long time, and it was worth the trip to come to the capital to see his sons.

Speaking of which, I have to explain, what kind of official position is Master Hallym? According to today's parlance, the bachelor is equivalent to the current researcher of the Central Policy Research Office or the Academy of Social Sciences, and a higher one is a counselor of the State Council. In terms of administrative level, it is equivalent to a department-level cadre, and according to convention, such a level is not qualified to talk to the emperor alone. What Wang Anshi wants to do this time is related to the fortunes of the country and the people's livelihood, and to implement the new policy, there will inevitably be difficulties and resistance, and he must not be jealous and criticized by the ministers of the same palace as soon as he returns to the capital.

But after learning the emperor's determination, Wang Anshi still felt very relieved and sent Han Jiang Wang Anshi away to call the shogunate Hou Shuxian. At this time, Hou Shuxian saw Wang Anshi's rare joyful look, during this time Wang Anshi had been worried that the king would send troops to Western Xia, and as soon as he entered the door, Hou Shuxian asked: "Prince, I see that you are in a good mood, is there good news of the second son's success?" ”

"Hehe, Mr. Hou, please take a seat. It's a matter of time before the side gets a good deal. ”

Hou Shuxian said with a smile: "The prince is full of confidence in the king of Zhennan!" In this case, I guess that the inference of the king of Zhennan has been fulfilled again? ”

"That's what the gentleman said! I can't imagine that there is always something I don't expect. You see, he asked you to go back to Linchuan to find me, and he said three suggestions at that time, the first is to let me go back to the capital and don't rush to see the saint first, let me wait. As he expected, it seemed that the Holy Lord was not satisfied with other people's statecraft. Wang Anshi said proudly, he never thought that his second son, who had been demented until he was a teenager, could now give advice to himself, and became his most powerful assistant, not to mention that he was in a high position.

"The second prince is already very smart, and the second prince has had a close relationship with the saint in recent years, so he naturally instilled the ideas of many princes. What do you think, and how can anyone else know? The saint is already preconceived, and then looking at what others say is not right, of course, the more and more virtuous people are eager for the prince to see him. ”

"Hmmm! Mr. Hou is right, do you remember the second suggestion here? Said that it was for me to take the pulse and prescribe the right medicine! This self-righteous stinky boy still learned to give me some tricks, before coming to the capital, I was still wondering, did he say that the saint was not in good health? But I'm not a royal doctor, am I? When Han Jiang came to say this, I realized that this saint had summoned several ministers to listen to the strategy of governing the country, but I couldn't think of one who said that he would not say anything about military affairs, and another who said six proverbs. ”

Hou Shuxian asked, "Which six sentences?" ”

"Charity, wisdom, courage; Choose people, the reward must be believed, and the punishment must be severe! Mr. Hou, are these six sentences proverbs? Wang Anshi couldn't help but smile and looked at Hou Shuxian.

Hou Shuxian couldn't hold back, he laughed and said: "The second son has a profound meaning, to explain it with the suggestion of the second son, this is like saying six proverbs like someone is sick, but the doctor tells the patient, you have to cultivate yourself." What kind of statecraft is this, it's just empty talk. ”

Wang Anshi nodded: "So, this kid next to me knows that Chaozhong must be like this, and it seems that he also knows the heart of the saint very well, so he reminded the old man to grasp the symptoms and prescribe medicine." Hey, this kid! Wang Anshi was stunned, and couldn't suppress his admiration for the king.

Hou Shuxian was also pleased, but he pondered for a while and asked: "The third important thing that the second prince can say is mutual loyalty, which should be loyal to the prince, so should the prince be loyal to the court, does the second prince want to be loyal to the prince as well?" ”

Wang Anshi was reminded by Hou Shuxian, and also pondered for a moment and said: "I believe in the judgment of the side, let's bet on the loyalty of the saint, if the saint can't do it, I'm afraid it will repeat the mistakes of the new policy of Qingli, rather than waiting for him to fail, it is better not to participate in the beginning!" After that, Wang Anshi sighed again: "I don't know what the situation is over there?" If only he had come back sooner. ”

Although Wang Pan is not in the capital now, things are expected by Wang Pan, or Wang Pan's understanding of history. A few days later, Wang Anshi, a Hanlin scholar who was not qualified to have an important conversation with the emperor alone, was summoned into the palace by Zhao Ji.

This was an interview with Wang Anshi conducted by Shenzong, although he knew that many of Wang Bei's ideas were from Wang Anshi's Ten Thousand Words Book, but the first two ministers really disappointed Zhao Ji, and he wanted to hear Wang Anshi's reform and new policy with his own ears.

In the Qinzheng Palace, Zhao Ji saw Wang Anshi, this time he didn't want to be so subtle as asking Fubi and Sima Guang. The emperor went straight to the point and asked Wang Anshi: "At present, the finances are depleted, the state is declining, and the borders are restless, what should be done to change these situations?" ”

Wang Anshi stroked his beard, and after listening to Shenzong's words, he seemed to be calm and relaxed, and he didn't seem to regard himself as a Hanlin scholar who came to be assessed by Shenzong, but like an old Chinese medicine doctor who took the pulse of a patient: "The Holy One should give priority to determining the basic strategy for governing the country." ”

Zhao Ji was a little big when he heard it, and asked others about the strategy of governing the country, and the answer he gave was not on the point at all. When asked Wang Anshi, he asked directly about the method, but Wang Anshi gave him back to the big strategy. Secretly smiled bitterly, Zhao Ji was really afraid that Wang Anshi would tell him any more proverbs and other great truths, so he said: "From Taizu Taizong to Zhenzong Renzong, there has been no major turmoil in my dynasty for a hundred years, so the world is peaceful, do you think there are any problems in the strategy?" ”

Wang Anshi pondered for a moment: "The Holy Taizu has extremely high wisdom and unique opinions, Taizong inherited Taizu's intelligence and bravery, and Zhenzong maintained Taizu's humility and benevolence, and when he arrived at Renzong and Yingzong, there was no place where he lost his morality. That's why it has been able to rule for hundreds of years, and the world is peaceful. ”

Zhao Ji nodded slightly, what Wang Anshi said was very reasonable, not to mention that everyone was willing to hear other people's praise for their ancestors.

Wang Anshi stopped when he said this, looked at Zhao Ji earnestly and said, "But! But these two words are very important.

But what? How did I get to this? Zhao Ji couldn't help but stared at Wang Anshi and waited for him to continue.
