Chapter 257: People Use Me

Hou Shuxian himself also smiled, he continued: "This matter has been unresolved, as a result, the imperial Shi Lu Xu, Fan Chunren, and the supervisor Shi Lu Dafang all agreed with the statement of the auxiliary ministers, and impeached Prime Minister Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu together, and finally the Empress Dowager expressed her position, asking everyone to respect the title of Emperor Pu Wang, and Emperor Yingzong can call his biological parents parents, as a result, people think that this is planned by Zhongshu Province, many people are unhappy, Lu Zhi and others will hand over the appointment letter of appointment to serve the imperial history, and ask to resign as a protest. ”

Wang Biyi smiled and said, "This is not a small matter, is the Yushitai collectively on strike?" ”

Hou Shuxian also smiled: "It's okay to say that the Guangyu Shitai strike, Emperor Yingzong has no choice, and he discussed with the auxiliary ministers what to do, but I don't know which sentence of Yingzong offended these auxiliary ministers again, Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu all said: Since the imperial history thinks that they are right and we are at fault, then leave them behind and punish our crimes." ”

Wang snickered and whispered to Yuan Ze: "Emperor Yingzong is good now, isn't this Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror." Yuan Ze looked at the king puzzled: "Brother, what is Zhu Bajie's official position." Wang Bei laughed: "Zhu Bajie is Marshal Tianpeng." ”

Wang Anshi is hearing the key point, what he is thinking about is not only the title of King Pu, the resignation of officials and other things, but what he is thinking about in Wang Anshi's heart is a bigger thing: now the ancestral training left by Taizu is heavy on literature and light on martial arts, and the civil officials in the court are idle with each other, each has no rights, and there is no serious matter, King Pu's matter is a big thing, but the usual small things are also fighting over each other, any thing, whether it is good or bad, can not be implemented, he saw Yuan Ze next to the king laughed, thinking that it must be what the king said to provoke Yuan Ze, So he said to the king: "Don't joke, listen to Mr. Hou and get down to business." ”

Wang sat down and looked at Mr. Hou and said: "Sir, please speak, just now I felt that Emperor Yingzong agreed with the views of Zhongshu Province in his heart, and it was not easy for him to call his biological father the imperial father, but what these imperial historians said also made sense, I don't know how things are going now." ”

Hou Shuxian laughed next to the king who didn't mind, and he said: "Yingzong belittled Lu Zhi and others, who knew that the other people of the Imperial History Terrace, Zhao Ding, Zhao Zhan, Fu Yaoyu and others stopped doing it, and they also followed the book: Since Lu Zhi was degraded, it also degraded us, and as a result, Yingzong degraded six imperial histories in a row, which is not over, Sima Junshi also asked the emperor to degrade his officials, and the bachelor Lu Gongshu also asked to degrade." ”

This is really lively enough, the king looked at his father, saw his father frowned slightly, seemed to be thinking about something, after a long time, Wang Anshi said to Hou Shuxian: "Emperor Yingzong is the only way to calm down, our Great Song Dynasty has established ancestral precepts since Taizu, if the imperial history platform impeached some officials, the words are not adopted is to resign from the official position, and the impeached person must also be suspended from office, and if there is no impeachment, it is the dereliction of duty of the imperial history platform, so there will be so many things." ”

When Wang heard his father say this, he suddenly thought of something, so he said: "Father, Mr. Hou, I don't know something, since the Tang Dynasty, the establishment of the imperial history platform is to supervise the emperor's words and deeds, the imperial history can make suggestions to the emperor, but can not be held accountable for the fault of the imperial history, before my father said that my Great Song Dynasty mostly followed the Tang Dynasty and the old system of the five dynasties, how the imperial history became the impeachment of the minister's merits. ”

Hearing Wang's question, Wang Anshi and Hou Shuxian glanced at each other, and Hou Shuxian looked approvingly in his eyes: "Jiefu, the second son said that it was very good, and you also said that the second son read less." Wang Anshi was very proud in his heart, but he said: "Oh~ My second son has not liked to read since he was a child, but he is a little smart, next to him, what you said is right, the Tang Dynasty Yushitai is indeed to supervise the emperor, and the Yushitai is located under the prime minister, and the candidate is selected by the prime minister, but since Taizu, two governments and three divisions have been established, and the imperial history has been set up separately, and the imperial history is personally selected by the emperor, so that the imperial history has become, and the responsibility of impeaching officials in various ministries has become. ”

Wang Auditor understood in his heart that Song Taizu was afraid that the prime minister or officials would bully the master, so he changed the law to weaken the authority of the ministries, and he nodded and said to his father: "That's it, but King Pu's discussion also has a fixed number, and this matter is almost over, but those degraded imperial histories are a little wronged." ”

Wang Anshi shook his head: "Taizu has also made a rule not to kill civil officials, even if the political views are different at most they are degraded, but the civil officials who go out of the dynasty still retain the qualification to participate in politics, although the officials have different opinions, but it does not affect personal relations, and once the situation in the court changes, the degraded will be reactivated, this is nothing, just what the side said, the father does not approve, do everything to do his best, if the father believes in the number, how can the side still have today." ”

Wang next to the smile, suddenly his heart lit up: what my father said is right, my own existence has changed a lot of things, these are imperceptible, why do you have to develop according to history, there is no person next to the king in the history books, and even whether there is a statement about himself is different, history is written by people, who said that the father's future Xining reform will fail, and the content of those changes is closely related to the people, especially when the king himself also encountered taxes, labor and other things, but also felt that some things were going to change, Another thing that interests him is that what his father just said is that political views are different, and the dispute between officials in the Great Song Dynasty is mostly a dispute of political opinions, thinking of this, he said, "My father is right, I am not afraid of different political opinions, what I am afraid of is that there are no political opinions, although the political views are not uniform, but if this point is used well, you can find better decisions"

Wang Anshi smiled, and looked at Hou Shuxian again: "What I said next door is very reasonable, and it is inconvenient for us to talk about this matter now, so we have to wait and see what happens, by the way, Jingren, I will ask you about someone, who is the judge of the household department of the third division now." Wang Bi knew that his father was asking Zhu County's relatives for him, Hou Shuxian had just returned from the capital, he must know,

Hou Shuxian thought for a while: "The judge of the three divisions and households...... Oh, I remembered, this person is called Wang Guangyuan, when Yingzong did not succeed to the throne and lived in Pudi, he often went to Emperor Yingzong, and he also dedicated his articles to Yingzong, for this matter the official Sima Guang also said: Wei Juan of the Han Dynasty did not let the prince drink, so Emperor Jing treated him very generously, Zhang Mei of the Zhou Dynasty privately gave the country's money to Zhou Shizong, so Shizong did not like him, but treated him very thinly, Wang Guangyuan was disloyal, no one could compare to him, when Renzong was in power, he secretly took refuge in His Majesty, Where is this what a loyal minister should do, and he should be investigated for his crime today, but the emperor not only did not punish him, but also rewarded him. ”

Hearing that Wang Bian's good impression of Sima Guang increased a few points, suddenly Wang Bian felt that he was really stingy a few years ago, and everything was relying on a fierce advance, and now it seems that everything has two sides, Sima Guang is still very competent as a counselor, if his father wants to do great things in the future and can know how to make good use of people, maybe things will take a turn for the better, and his father will not have so many political enemies, but more comrades-in-arms who mention each other, but Wang Bian is still very concerned about the whereabouts of this Wang Guangyuan, he asked: " I don't know if Emperor Yingzong has adopted Sima Junshi's advice. ”

Hou Shuxian shook his head: "Yingzong didn't listen to Sima Guang's words, and appointed Wang Guangyuan as the judge of the herd and the three divisions. Wang Anshi and Wang Bi also shook their heads, this Yingzong really can't tell the difference between good and bad people, it seems that his father and himself are really right to resign.

Hou Shuxian's arrival undoubtedly let Wang Bian know a lot of things he didn't know before, and Wang Bian also found that his thoughts on some things have changed now, a few of them chatted about things in the court for a while, a few people chatted for a while, Wang Anshi ordered someone to prepare dinner for Mr. Hou to catch the wind, Wang Pan and Yuan Ze went out of Wang Anshi's study, Yuan Ze put his arm on Wang Bian's shoulder and asked: "Brother, how about you go to the county government today, did you tell the county master that you are doing an errand sent by the prime minister." ”

Wang Pan took out a book from his arms, took out the document written by the county magistrate himself, Yuan Ze took it and looked at it, and said to Wang Pan anxiously: "Oh, why did you still agree to do this errand." Wang Bi retrieved the paperwork: "Do you know what this is called, this is called ironclad evidence, by the way, the matter of the Jiangnan West Road transfer envoy, have you helped me inquire about it?" ”

Yuan Ze said: "I inquired, this person's surname is Cai Mingting, the word Zizheng, and I also found out that he will come to Linchuan in a few days." ”

As soon as Wang heard that the transfer envoy of Jiangnan West Road was Cai Zizheng, he was happy, Cai Zizheng had a great merit in governing Yanyu back then, and this person hated the collusion between officials and businessmen the most, when he was in the capital, Wang Pan also met with this Cai Zizheng, now it will be easy to do, he said happily: "Okay, brother, you are fast enough." ”

Yuan Ze also smiled: "What, you still don't have your own house, you can go back and see, Wa Zhuang is back, he told me, he just came back from Nanfeng, and now Cai Zizheng is in Nanfeng." ”

The king pulled Yuan Ze next to him: "Let's go, go to my house and sit down." Yuan Ze said reluctantly: "No, you go back and hurry up to urge your taxes, I still have books to read." The king smiled: "Look at you like that, okay, you go to read your book, and I will go to urge my taxes." Saying goodbye to Yuan Ze and walking out,

Yuan Ze greeted behind him: "Alas, you are really going, by the way, our father heard that you have a sheep washing in Jinxiu Building, and said that you will prepare it for him when you go back, and also, your father asked you about Chinese New Year's Eve food......"

Wang said: "I don't really go, I have a way to urge taxes, but I won't tell you now, when I go back and finish the tax collection, I will make hot pot for our father and let him taste it, as for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, I will think of a fresh one for you when I go back." As he spoke, he walked briskly to his house.
