Chapter 46: Su Shi's Position
Qin Guan's face turned even redder when he heard Su Shi say this, and he had no choice but to put the gift slip on the table in his arms, and then he said, "Lord Wang, that's the case." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoMy father-in-law is Xu Liang, the county magistrate of Gaoyou, and this gift list is also what my father-in-law asked me to give to you. After you left Gaoyou, I left Gaoyou to worship my teacher, and after the new emperor ascended the throne, I came to the capital with my teacher. Just a few days ago, my father-in-law found me and asked me to ask the prince for a favor through the teacher. ”
"Why didn't he come to me by himself?" The king asked.
"My father-in-law has also been here a few times, but I haven't seen the prince, and that was before the prince went on the expedition. At that time, he wanted to take over some work from the county king, and it was the repair of the garden related to the sacrifice. ”
When the king heard this, he stopped his chopsticks. He looked at Qin Guan and secretly thought: Why is it all about the royal sacrifice today? vaguely remembered that Xu Liang had approached Wang Bei back then, saying that he wanted to take over this fundraiser. Wang Bi said to Xu Liang to let him follow the normal process and procedures, could it be that there was something wrong here?
Qin watched the king look at himself, and then added: "It's not a secret, my father-in-law was also a businessman before he donated the official, but a magistrate couldn't compare to the income of being a businessman back then, and he was not a corrupt official who scraped the ground. Therefore, he wanted to take on some royal work through the county king. But what kind of bidding is the new emperor doing now, and it is all presided over by Master Shen, and even the county king has not got these jobs. So ......"
Su Shi also listened to this meeting for a long time, he watched Qin Guan swallow and spit, and asked urgingly: "So what?" The royal sacrifice has long ended, and your father-in-law has not received a job, so he can be a magistrate in a down-to-earth manner. ”
Qin Guan was very embarrassed, Su Shi's words were difficult for him to refute, not to mention that if it wasn't for his daughter-in-law making trouble with him, he would definitely not want to care about his father-in-law.
The king said: "So, your father-in-law didn't know that the county king couldn't get these jobs, but gave the county king a lot of deposits. It's spring now, and even if you don't do these jobs, you can't get back those deposits. Is that right? ”
Qin Guan saw that what the king said was not wrong at all, and asked in surprise, "Lord Wang, how do you know?" ”
Su Shi said: "Shaoyou, I said that you don't know the prince at all. First, there is nothing he does not know; Second, you are simply superfluous in this matter, and he will not care. ”
Qin Guan looked helpless: "I also know that my father-in-law is confused, but I can't bear the nagging of my insiders all day long." Anyway, I've been here and told the prince, and as for the prince who doesn't care about it, it has nothing to do with me. ”
Su Shi smiled: "Then I also brought you here, can't you say that you don't care about your business as a teacher in the future?" Then he turned his head to look at the king and said, "Brother Xian, now you know why we are here, right?" Entrusted by others, it is a helpless move. But I have a word in advance, but I liked this student's talent and learning, so I agreed to bring him here. So, Brother Xian, you don't have to look at my face if you don't care about this matter. ”
Su Xiaomei covered her mouth and snickered when she said this, her brother is really self-inflicted. She couldn't understand the temper of the king anymore, no one could stop what he wanted to do, and he wouldn't look at anyone's face if he didn't want to do it.
Wang Bi also said with a smile: "Brother Zizhan, don't worry, it doesn't matter whether you care about it or not. Shaoyou, you go back and tell your father-in-law, I helped with this. When I turn around, I will impeach him for taking bribes for personal gain and using his power for personal ......"
Before he finished his words, Qin Guan waved his hand vigorously: "Absolutely not, it is a relative of the emperor, and besides, my father-in-law is timid, so it was not easy to donate an official." ”
"Didn't your father-in-law ask my father to help him go to the county king to ask for a debt?" Tong Guan couldn't listen to it and said dissatisfiedly.
"Don't talk too much, little kid!" Wang said a word to Tong Guan, and then looked at Qin Guan, it seemed that he didn't need to ask anything, Tong Guan was already very direct.
"No, no!" Qin Guan explained: "That's the case, my father-in-law mortgaged the property to the bank in order to raise the silver taels for the county king. It's still a trivial matter if the money doesn't come back, but if you can't pay the bank after half a year, you won't even have real estate. Seeing that the six-month deadline was approaching, I asked me to ask the prince to see if I could give me some time. ”
"If you have a grace time, will your father-in-law be able to repay the money?" The king asked.
Qin Guan shook his head, but nodded again: "The king of the county told my father-in-law to give him something to pay for those silver taels, and let him sell it to solve the ......"
"Oh...... I know. Tong Guan stretched his voice and pointed at Qin Guan and said, "Is it that the king of the county promised to give your father-in-law some flowers and trees, and let your father-in-law go and get them." ”
Qin Guan looked at Tong Guan blankly: "You also know this?" ”
Tong Guan said: "Of course, I am the prince and the righteous son. My father already knew about this, but those trees are not the king's, and the kings can't be the masters, so your father must not be able to repay the bank's mortgage. ”
Seeing that Tong Guan said so firmly, Qin Guan was a little disappointed when he heard it. Su Shi said: "What do you think I'm talking about? It's good to let your father-in-law honestly be a county magistrate in Gaoyou, and you can live in the government office. ”
Qin Guan bowed his head and was silent, he couldn't explain this result to his insiders and father-in-law, not to mention that their family now lives with his father-in-law, in case the bank takes away the property, his father-in-law can go to Gaoyou, and his family's whereabouts in the capital will have to find another way.
Su Shi said in a big way: "It's okay, don't travel, it's a big deal, you can live in my house." When you pass the college entrance examination and are appointed by the imperial court, you will have a mansion and a job, and you should take care of your confused father-in-law's affairs. ”
Qin Guan sighed: "Alas, at his age, he can't even protect the mansion, and I also look at him pitiful." ”
The king said, "There will be something hateful about the wretched." It's not difficult to extend the repayment time of the loan, so I'll look at Brother Zizhan's face and extend the time limit for your father-in-law. However, you still bring the words back, the idea of the county king is still less involved, and think of something else as soon as possible. ”
Qin Guan heard the mixed feelings, and hurriedly thanked the king, Su Shi said on the side: "Look, it's my face again, isn't it?" It is you who recommend Master Shen, and it is also you who implements any bidding, and it is also you who give loans to those who win the bid. Therefore, it is still the prince who provokes the king of the county, you can clean up this mess slowly. ”
The king said disdainfully: "What's wrong with him?" If you don't accept it, let him come to me! ”
Su Shi snorted: "Who can disagree?" Now you are a celebrity in the eyes of the saint, and the emperor even suppressed the matter of killing the border minister. ”
Wang next to the smiled, presumably Su Shi was talking about killing Cao Tian, he thought that when he returned to the court, there must be a bunch of controversy, but unexpectedly, no one has mentioned this matter until now. "Some people should be killed, but not killing is not enough to establish military prestige."
Su Shi said: "Now it's time to establish the army, and even the saints have learned to be tough. In the last issue of "Cloud Pick", the Holy Lord asked me to praise Ling Zun's proposal, but I raised some objections to individual views, and guess what? He learned Zhao Ji's tone of speech and said, "The saint said, Su Zizhan, aren't you just talking empty like Sima Guang and others?" If you don't want to write, don't write! You go back and reflect first, think about it carefully and then face you. ”
Wang listened and smiled, Zhao Ji is much more mature now: "Has Brother Zizhan thought it through?" ”
Su Shi said: "Is there anything to think about here? Although Sima Guang and others have made no achievements, they also have many years of experience in politics. Although the content of the proposed changes is good, it is not perfect. Why do you have to divide the old and new factions when it comes to the New Deal, and then pinch you to the death? As long as one side is said to have a slight flaw, it immediately becomes a political enemy. What is the rationale for this? ”
The king couldn't help but be stunned, what Su Shi said was very right! There are different voices to make progress, not to mention that from the perspective of later generations, most of Wang Anshi's new policies were aimed at the shortcomings of the time, but they may not be perfect, which is also one of the reasons why some places could not be implemented later. After all, I am a modern person, and I can only make progress with different voices, and the key is how to grasp the general direction and program. As for many details in the reform, different voices need to be perfected. He couldn't help but sit up straight, staring at Su Shi with his eyes tight, and he suddenly understood a question that many people didn't understand: why Su Shi and Su Dongpo, who were defined as opponents of Xining's reform, actually spoke for Wang Anshi during the later Yuan You change period, causing him to become the opposite of both factions. There is only one reason for this, Su Shi is looking at some problems in the reform objectively from any side.
How did Su Shi know these questions that Wang was thinking, he saw Wang next to him staring at him, and he was a little hairy: "Brother Xian, what do you think I do?" ”
Su Xiaomei said, "Didn't you mention your business? ”
"Oh! Haha, I won't mention it! Drink! Su Shi laughed.
In the past, when the king looked at Su Shi, he always felt that Su Shi was a little high, or as a modern person, he looked at Su Shi with the eyes of ancient talents, which felt a little bit of distance. And today, Su Shi's words suddenly made Wang Fang have an epiphany, he is a modern person, if he can't assimilate these people with modern people's thoughts when he comes to the Song Dynasty, but let them assimilate himself, even if the reform is successful?
In any dynasty, there will be different people and different ideas, and party struggle is an eternal topic in all dynasties. Even if Sima Guang, Han Qi, Fu Bi and others are all wiped out now, so what? It must be reasonable for an idea to be echoed by others, and blindly suppressing it can only make the sprout of hostility like grass, wildfires that cannot be burned out, and spring breezes blow and regenerate. In the early stage of Wang Anshi Xining's reform, the more intense the blow to political opponents, the more the backlash in the later stage, and the more tragic the final result will be.
A real topic is placed in front of Wang, he wants to help Wang Anshi change the law, so in addition to killing decisively, he must also have a strategy for dealing with political opponents, so that the other party can make a voice to correct possible mistakes in the change. If this were not the case, even the people within the Great Song Dynasty would not be able to assimilate, and what would they talk about assimilating Western Xia and Great Liao.
