Zhao Zhen made him speechless.

Is it wrong?

Whoever hears these names will not think that he is wrong.

He said weakly, "Go back." ”

"Whoa."

Seeing Han Qi stand up, the two little yellow doors actually took the initiative to give way to a road, this lord is too good, and he has to let it.

But Zhao Zhen didn't think how good Han Qi was, he just smiled bitterly, Lao Tzu is too talented, and he doesn't know how to use it. There is an even better one, taking out a book from the draw. A very long book, in this day and age.

This is not an online novel, every word and sentence has been carefully scrutinized, 150,000 words, which is a very long work.

The real awesome is this book.

Zhao Zhen doesn't know how many times he has flipped through it.

But the more I flipped, the more confused I became.

It is about Confucianism, but also about the world, national affairs, governing people, establishing people, and cultivating virtue.

"Apply what you have learned," Zhao Zhen opened the book again and said with a sigh. This is the ultimate in applying what you have learned.

This book is indeed very practical, but Zhao Zhen is not very clear in many places, and it is not clear in the book because of a slight taboo. For example, redundant soldiers directly refer to the trouble of redundant soldiers.

The trouble of redundant soldiers, Zhao Zhen really doesn't know?

Know, but he didn't dare to move.

Forced by the party and the Khitan, a large number of forbidden soldiers, box soldiers and village soldiers had to be stationed on the border, as well as a small number of Tibetan soldiers. In this way, a balanced way can be formed, otherwise Zhao Zhen is also very afraid of so many troops on the border.

On the way of military revolution, what do you know?

Zheng Lang also said that in addition to his eldest uncle, his grandfather was a little inferior in the use of soldiers, and his father was even worse, and the siege of Lanzhou was caused by his father's indiscriminate interference. Zhao Zhen is not angry, it is the words of the minister. If he loses this uprightness, he only desperately defends himself, saying how good he is, but Zhao Zhen looks down on him.

My father didn't understand military affairs, and I didn't understand it myself.

The soldiers on the border can't be cut, if they do, they can only cut the garrison in the capital, dare to cut it?

This worry has plagued him all his life, and after the fact, Pang Ji began to cut redundant soldiers, but he was cut and sharpened, drowning in party disputes, and he was sad. Although he was a little Lu Yijian, he finally lacked Lu Yijian's cheekiness, and then stepped down. But the role of Zhao Zhen in the middle cannot be ignored.

Although he searched for degrees in the crowd, and finally found this real capable official, he did not use it well.

As for Han Qi, he is just invincible, don't take it seriously. As long as Han Qi is taken seriously, it will not end well in the end.

Or according to psychological analysis, he doesn't understand the military, and he is afraid and uncertain in his heart, so he takes the initiative to maintain this redundant military system.

Isn't that right? Obviously wrong, the most powerful army of the Song Dynasty was the Western Army, which had been cultivated by long-term battles with the Dangxiang people, not the forbidden army. When a really strong enemy arrives, hundreds of thousands of forbidden soldiers will work? Or go out of An Lushan and lead 100,000 western soldiers to rebel, and the forbidden soldiers in the capital can resist?

If it doesn't work, what do you do with it?

It is better to raise fewer troops, let them go to the battlefield to fight a dozen, and then transfer them back, so that less can give them favor, less can select elite soldiers, and less can effectively manage. Think about it, 800,000 forbidden soldiers, compressed into 400,000, is it an elite, the 800,000 forbidden soldiers, take out 200,000 people, how much less pressure will the imperial court have? What would be the effect of placing the other 200,000 people on the other 400,000 people? A family with 40 yuan will not die or live, and a family with 60 yuan will be well-off. Without worries, will soldiers be even more desperate when fighting?

But it's not what Zheng Lang says now, he only says the mean. Therefore, Zhao Zhen was puzzled.

And then to the redundant officials.

Another headache, at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, there were only 3,000 and a few hundred officials, and now it has swelled to more than 20,000.

Each state is equipped with Taishou, Tongju, Changshi, Judge, Tuiguan, and each Cao Shen military, and the county has a county order, a county officer, and a county lieutenant, and it seems that there are more than 20,000 people. But this is not the case in every state and county, such as Taiping Prefecture, Middle and Upper Prefecture, the county is also an upper county, two middle counties, and the configuration is only half. There are also some lower states and lower counties, with fewer configurations. Half of the people can be laid off.

In order to support more than 20,000 officials, the Song Dynasty spent more than 20 million yuan a year, and an average of 1,100 yuan for an official. There are only those in the open, and there are also those in the shadows, using the power in their hands to annex the fields and workshops, and so on.

What will become of saving half of the officials? The Ming Department has lost more than 10 million yuan of expenditure in a year, and Lu Yi has not spent 10 million yuan on the Yellow River!

There are also job fields and invisible expenditures.

But Zhao Zhen doesn't think so, this is the system of the Song Dynasty, stacked and stacked, including redundant politics, restricting the emergence of powerful ministers. It also plays a role, such as party strife, Zhao Zhen is not afraid, but he doesn't like it, whether it is party strife, or Ding Wei, it will not endanger the rule of the country, but the party strife will definitely not be happy, once this case is opened, it will affect the normal development of the country.

At this time, Zhao Zhen also forgot the word Zheng Lang said, Fadu.

stacked, Zheng Lang was not disgusted.

Originally, mutual restraint is not necessarily a bad thing, and the power is too centralized, and it is the biggest hotbed of [***], but there is a degree, and this kind of repetitive stacking has exceeded this degree.

But the discussion is the mean, just on the matter, itself is right, like the Yin and Yang Taiji flow, the stack was originally a fish point, now it has become a fish, and gradually develops to the head of the fish, Yin has flourished, Yang is gradually declining, and it must be corrected in time.

The lack of qualifications made Zheng Lang implicitly skip it again when he narrated.

He also talked about martial arts in the world.

Confucianism has always opposed the dethronement of soldiers, but if you don't cultivate military equipment, you have to be the emperor of others, and you are beaten everywhere, so Li Shimin attaches great importance to civil governance, and calls himself Emperor Wen, but he does not forget to prepare for martial arts. This military is not to let the literati lead the troops, let the eunuchs lead the troops, but let the special military generals lead the troops.

Only then did it discuss the causes of the division of feudal towns in the Tang Dynasty.

Zhao Zhen still disapproves, his eldest uncle is also not a festival envoy, nor does he hold the local military and political power, but only military merits, but he is liked by the generals, so he is added by the yellow robe.

He made a mistake of consciousness again, was that right? Zhao Kuangyin got the throne, first, the situation at that time, the five dynasties and ten kingdoms were endless, and the etiquette law had collapsed, so try it now? The second is Zhao Kuangyin's own military talent, personality charm, and Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pu was a strategist, and his military talent was Zhao Kuangyin led 5,000 to break the 100,000 troops of the famous Southern Tang Dynasty general Huang Fuhui, not only defeated the 100,000 troops of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but also miraculously captured Chuzhou City. There are still 5,000 and 20,000 in the front, and 2,000 in the back, the strongest 20,000 troops in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Who can do it?

A single general in the Song Dynasty couldn't do it, so he could only rummage through history, or more than a hundred times later.

His personality charm made him take the meat shield as his when he was attacking the city. There was also luck, just when Chai Rong died, the main young mother was weak, so he had a chance.

Indispensable.

Who can do that?

Look at him, he himself just set aside the meritorious veterans, but he did not oppose the use of military generals, Pan Mei, Cao Bin and others were all reused in his hands. It's just that in the hands of Zhao Kuangyi, the eldest brother died inexplicably, and the nephew committed suicide inexplicably, afraid of the eldest brother's prestige in the army, so he further restrained the generals. It's gone, why now?

Appropriately do some restrictions, and when it comes to leading the troops into battle, it is necessary for the generals to lead the army, which is the correct way.

However, Zhao Zhen also had suspicions.

He can't be blamed, everyone has historical limitations. Standing in the middle of the game, it is difficult to see the truth. Including Fan Zhongyan, who stumbled, to this day, he has not really seen the truth.

There is also a discussion of people's surnames.

Strictly speaking, Zheng Lang's concept of people's surnames is biased towards the good side, so the use of people's surnames is opposed to the system, and he said that Tai or no. Two important hexagrams. Qiankun constitutes the origin of the eight trigrams, and the two trigrams and the eight trigrams form the basis of the sixty-four trigrams.

He was not born without good and evil, and when he first saw his parents, he left a deep imprint. There is a good moral side and an evil greedy side. In the past, Zheng Lang also demonstrated the relative symbiosis of virtue and benefit.

Except for a few people who are born because of their parents' genetics, most of them have good and evil, good comes first, evil is supplemented, so children are the most lovely. Innocent also.

This is the hexagram of the great Tai outside the yin lord of the yang in the inside, but as it grows, either the vulva invades the inside, or the yang is forcibly used to fight the evil in the yin and invades the outside, and the anger is angry, so that the yin is nourishing inside, so the city is restored to the god, do not use the teacher, and tell the life of the city, and be stingy.

The system is a restriction on people's surnames from the outside, so that people from all walks of life can be safe and orderly, and use the means of compulsory surnames, or law or morality, to punish and moralize, which is the external big yang, the internal big yin, because it is said no. The intention is good, but if the name of dignity and inferiority is divided, many unfair things will inevitably happen.

Therefore, it is said that chastity must be kept from within. Confucianism also said that the inner sage and the outer king are based on benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, etiquette, generosity, forgiveness, and moderation.

That's where it is.

For example, in the Han Dynasty, what about the dispute between eunuchs and relatives, and what about the poor army and the dethronement of the military, that is just an illusion.

The Confucian way originally emphasized the inner sage and the outer king, and the family should be united first, but the family can be brought together, and it is difficult for the whole to flow, which will inevitably harm the interests of other families. If the country is strong again, it will inevitably threaten other countries. Therefore, there is no way to use benevolence to preside over the world, so it is called Pingzi.

You can only love the country as a family, don't love the world, that's the end, it's a fool!

It seems that there are a lot of such stupid presumptions, and the more you go on, the more stupid you are, the more you will be bullied in all aspects. And because I'm stupid and cowardly, I can't find real friends! Who wants to survive under the wings of a coward?

This is the real Qi family patriotism and peace in the world.

It cannot be said that a gentleman is alone and has a process of tolerance and adjustment. If it develops to be alone, it is too much, and it is very one-sided.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used troops too much, but we must also see his positive significance, without external troubles, what impact will it have on the people of Hedong, Hebei? And shouted out a sentence, although those who offend our Han will be punished from afar, have they strengthened the cohesion of the nation and the country.

The policy of the outer king of the Han Dynasty was good, but the internal sage could be ignored, which was the real foundation. To love the people is to love all the people, to be people-oriented, to be people-oriented, and to be an inner saint. It was precisely by ignoring this foundation, acquiescing to the infinite expansion of their vision and wealth, and extorting the people and concentrating their strength, that there was a rebellion among the kings, relatives and eunuchs, and the people could not bear the heavy pressure, and the Han Dynasty was completely annihilated in the long river of history.

Truth is an inner saint.

As long as the inner saint is done well, supplemented by a moderate outer king, what does it matter if the country is a thousand years old?

The system is fake, and it has to revolve around the inner saint and the outer king, this is what Zheng Lang wants to express. If he becomes the king of the outer saint and the inner king, the system will inevitably collapse in the end. It is the theorem of the world, and it has been so for a thousand years, and it has been so for ten thousand years.

Seeing such a book, will Zhao Zhen be very sad?

Although the benevolence, wisdom, etiquette, loyalty, filial piety, etc., have not been explained in detail, there is a glimpse of the leopard in the tube. Without the details that follow, this mean is already infinite.

It also mentions employing people, what kind of people can be used with what kind of people.

I don't have the ability to control him, so it's better not to use it.

For example, Liu Bang, people say that he is a scoundrel, if this is the case, why should a capable minister like Xiao He defile himself when he is the emperor? Zhang Liang wants to eat stones? Just because he used Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Han Xin, Chen Ping, and Cao Shen well, it was enough to be the founding emperor of a generation. But talents, to see whether the king has the ability to use, so Wei Zheng did not use it well under Li Chengqian, and became a famous minister through the ages in the hands of Li Shimin, so Pei Ju was a minister under Yang Guang, but became a direct minister in the hands of Li Shimin.

Then he faintly said the court situation.

Fan Lui!

Your Majesty, you can watch and do it, you can control it well, let them put aside the discord, a virtuous admonition, a strong person to do things, and the flowery Song Dynasty will come. But if you can't control it, it's best not to use one, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble.

What kind of fierce horse with what kind of owner.

This reason is like Zheng Lang rejecting Zhao Zhen's kindness and not wanting to return to Beijing.

What to do in the capital?

What is the merit of governing a state, lack of age, lack of qualifications, insufficient connections, can't control, can't do anything.

It is not said in the book, but the surname is about the same.

Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "It's such a big mean." ”

In fact, after closing the book, Zhao Zhen had an idea in his heart, Han Qi and these people are all good, but they are not under their control, so they don't need to have the surname Suo. There are many talents and they are not afraid, so they issued an edict, Wang Suizuo was the envoy of the Zhangxin Festival, Tongping Zhangshi, Chen Yaozuo was the envoy of the Huaikang Festival, Tongping Zhangshi, and sentenced to Zhengzhou, Han Yi was the household servant, and Shi Zhongli was the household servant and the senior minister.

Zhangxin Jiedu is not a real official, and the same is true for Tongping Zhangshi, so it is paid to provide for the elderly at home. Lao Chen got a real job, he knew Zhengzhou, and considering that he was old and couldn't go far, he stayed in Zhengzhou. Han Yi and Shi Zhongli returned to their duties.

Zhang Shixun of Henan Mansion was sentenced to be the servant of the Household Department and the secretary of the military department and the Pingzhang affairs, the household servant and the Privy Council affairs of the same knowledge were like the official Pingzhang affairs, the same knowledge of the Privy Council affairs Wang Hao, the right to know the Kaifeng Mansion Li Ruogu and participate in the governor's affairs, the three envoys of the right to Wang Bowen, the knowledge of Yongxingjun Chen Zhizhong and the same knowledge of the Privy Council.

Among several people, Wang Hao is playing soy sauce, although Zhang Shixun is playing soy sauce, he can do some things a little, Li Ruogu is the luckiest, he has just been transferred back from Jiangning, climbed a few levels in a row, and quickly became the deputy prime minister, although Wang Bowen is the prime minister who cried, he can also make up, Zhang Dexiang and Chen Zhizhong are very capable people.

This is the prosperous era of Renzong.

There are too many talents, except for these old greedy, just pick and choose, and a set of teams will make do.

But none of these people were recommended by Han Qi.

But it's terrible, it was his impeachment that led to the dismissal of all four phases.

For a while, Han Qi's reputation became famous, and all the officials in the previous dynasty looked sideways at him. Brother, you are too good, such a feat can only be done by you.

How difficult it is.

Take a look, Fan Zhongyan and Kong Daofu were killed and injured in order to deal with Lu Yijian, and their heads were bleeding, but Lu Yijian was safe and sound, and in the end, it was a two-phase fight to get Lu Yijian down.

For this reason, Kong Daofu patted the palace door, and Fan Zhongyan was at home preparing to say goodbye to his wife.

However, brother, you are very good, you don't show your mountains or water, and your family is not afraid, so the four prime ministers let you get off the horse.

Sima Guang and Lu Gongshu said in the inn: "Timing." ”

Sima Guang said again: "If your father is in the phase, Han Siji will never dare to do this. ”

It's four old guys, talentless and greedy, and it's easy to break them down. It is also necessary to grasp the timing, last year was not good, last year was admonished, the evil deeds were not obvious, and it was appointed by the emperor himself, which was self-inflicted. But the opposition became louder this spring, and Zhao Zhen himself was not satisfied, so Han Qi gently pushed, and the four old prime ministers all went down.

"Not as black as you say......"

"Sir, who is the most important person?"

"Pang Ji."

"Did you mention Han Qi?"

"Probably not." But Lu Gong thought in his heart, how can he judge the problem by how Mr. looks at people, and besides, Mr. has never dealt with Han Qi, how can he comment on people in the world? Or it's missing.

It doesn't matter if the problem is selfish or public, whether Han Qi is selfish or public, it is not something that they can participate in now, including Zheng Lang.

opened the letter sent by Zheng Lang, as well as the gift.

First, the congratulatory gift.

Sima Guang and Lu Gongshu participated in the exam, but Xie Yuan was not, but it was too easy to pass the exam, and their rankings were relatively high.

So the two families made a betrothal for them.

They are all official families, the Sima family doesn't want their son to be caught by others, and the Lu family doesn't want any accidents to happen. It must be known that the two sons followed Zheng Lang and his party, and the world watched it, don't think that it is the Lu family, it is the Lu family, as long as there is no engagement, there will be people who are moved, what if you meet an old horseman like Wang Deyong? Lu Yijian came back and fought hard with others.

All engaged in advance, Sima Guang is the daughter of an official eunuch, surnamed Zhang.

The moral character is very good, Nie repeatedly inquired about the other party's conduct, and finally made a decision.

A very smart female surname, don't look at the other party's family, and don't need to look, Zheng Jiazi's future is unlimited, how many Qin cha have been sent by the emperor in recent years, Zheng Jiazi is not subject to official positions, otherwise I don't know what to promote.

Therefore, we value the conduct of others.

There is a good wife in the family, and half the sky is over.

However, it is impossible to see it if you want to see it when you reach the Lu family, after all, the Lu family is more brilliant.

also chose a Zhang family. It is the sister of Zhang Beizhi, the official to be systematized, Zhang Beizhi doesn't care, it is his wife, and his wife is the daughter of Lu Zongdao. And I heard that this Zhang is very smart.

The Nie family valued people's conduct, and the Lu family valued people's intelligence.

Mrs. Lu's idea, look at the Cui family's daughter, how well she has done in Taiping Prefecture, it is smart and capable, taking the lead in assisting her husband, Taiping Prefecture not only has political achievements, but also has the merit of morality, so that Yanchen is speechless, Cui's contribution is indispensable.

is not married, but after the palace examination, they will both get married.

The two still have correspondence with Zheng Lang, which is a relationship.

Hugh said that they are Cai Jing, and when they meet Zheng Lang as a teacher, such careful cultivation will also produce feelings.

When Zheng Lang learned of this, he didn't come forward, Cui Xian came forward, picked out the best cloth from the Taiping Prefecture Jinrust Prison, and sent a few ends, as well as some handicrafts produced by Taiping Prefecture itself, such as a small amount of carved silk fabrics, and gave them to two families.

However, it was not sent to the two families, but directly to the two sons.

It has nothing to do with your family, what is sent is only a master-apprentice relationship, and now Zheng Lang is not considering forming a party at all, so there is no need to go deeper with the two families.

There is also a long letter from Zheng Lang.

The letter starts with congratulations, as well as things to pay attention to in the examination room, and more.

One is to serve.

It is possible that the emperor will ask them, and if he asks, he will say it decisively.

Before that, there was an incident that after the Hangzhou cadres returned, they discussed again.

Zhang Xia said a fair word, Zhang Xia didn't know the situation between the DPRK and China, he was more tragic than Zheng Lang, and the background was too thin. But the approximate ones can still know, tell them, don't think nonsense, people are such good officials, it is impossible to stay in the local area, and the emperor will probably be transferred back to the capital. If you promised to do so, you should have agreed to it a long time ago, and everyone should build the embankment with peace of mind, which is your top priority.

It's like pouring a basin of cold water on Sanjiuli, and time is cold. Let's think about cane sugar first, and you can't leave it behind to make money. This year, there are more businessmen who go to Taiping Prefecture to pick up cane sugar.

Many businessmen came to Taiping again.

Taiping Prefecture is also busy at this time, in the last year, the ditch and ditch should be further dug deeper, do not be afraid of tired, dig deep in order to have a better water storage function, and strictly order no people to encroach on the water surface, will dig up the mud to pile up the depression.

If the water in the outer river is low and the water in the inner river is high, there are thousands of ways to use the pressure relationship to drain the water. But it is impossible, once waterlogged, the river water outside is higher. I had to figure it out from within.

Reduce low-lying areas and increase water storage function.

At least a small flood disaster is not very harmful, and when it comes to a large flood season, there is no way.

There is also continue to pick the polder, to prevent trouble, it must be picked once in a few years, but the amount is not large, this is to increase the thickness and height, the thickness is part of the loss of soil and water, and the height is the downward pressure of the polder.

But the task is not so intense.

However, a few merchants heard that the big families in Taiping Prefecture sold 800 hectares of land to the state government and let them divide it equally between the people and the tenants.

Some don't understand.

Not at the beginning, it was for the exchange of cane sugar mill deed shares. Now that everything is decided, why do we do this?

The answer is very simple, thank you to Zhizhou, Zhizhou wants to reduce the proportion of poor people in the territory, and we help him.

There are other reasons, many people have workshops, labor is tight, labor is noble, the profit from the land is very thin, and after the sale of land, there can be a sum of money in exchange for greater capital turnover. The vision is the same as that of Zheng Lang's family, and the main profit is not in the fields.

Think about it, 500 acres of land is considered a big landlord, and the rent of one acre of land is one and a half stones, which is not low, and 750 stone of grain is not rice in the capital, but rice in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is only two hundred or dozens of dollars. It's better to change some money as a capital, but there is a sense of gratitude. The surname Suo made Zhizhou's merits a little greater, and there were almost no poor people in the territory. Although it was not possible, the tenant farmer ratio had fallen to the point where it could not be increased. However, each household still retained more than 2,000 hectares of fertile land that was not sold. This is a combination of the products of internal and external causes.

But these merchants don't know.

met Zheng Lang, Zheng Lang replied very simply, obeying the arrangement of the imperial court.

But Zheng Lang is also very interested in Hangzhou.

The present and future several good ports of the Song Dynasty, Guangzhou appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and many large food merchants, which is the historical basis. Because of the narrow land in Quanzhou, the people were forced to do business, and many people went to sea privately, which was the basis of the masses. Wenzhou is not as obvious as Quanzhou's mass base, but the form is similar. The port of Suzhou can not be located on the side of the Yangtze River, at this time the Yangtze River also has a big bell mouth, all the way to Taizhou is seawater, not river water, the river embankment is not called the river embankment, but the seawall. However, inland river transportation was developed, and seaports appeared much later, not now, not in the Ming Dynasty, but there are also some foundations.

Mizhou is close to Hebei and Beijing, and has a geographical foundation. The rest is the three states of Mingxiu and Hangzhou, Mingzhou can last for a long time, but there is no convenience of the Grand Canal, Xiuzhou not only can not last long, there is no convenience of the Grand Canal, except that he really has the ability to turn over the river and the sea, and the entire Shanghai and Huangpu River will be changed five hundred years in advance. Relatively speaking, Hangzhou is better, and it will be inconvenient as a seaport in the future, and sooner or later it will become the top of the trumpet, but at this time it is a triangle, and the sea ships can directly reach the edge of Hangzhou. There is also the Grand Canal Yangtze River, which can communicate with Yanjing City on the upper part and Bashu on the lower part.

And his term of office is limited, and the three states of Sumiwen are not very suitable, if he can't get it, it's better than nothing. Quanguang is too far away. The conditions in Xiuming and Erzhou are not very favorable, and the first choice is Hangzhou.

It's not what he says.

Therefore, the prospect is very good, far better than the prospect of Taiping Prefecture, ten times or dozens of times, but it is not for me to decide. The court doesn't have that rule, so I can go wherever I want.

Several businessmen left in confusion.

I didn't hear the tone, I only heard it, it would be ten times better than dozens of times.

More tempting and more confused.

When I went back, more people were tempted and more people were confused.

wanted to go through other ways, but the Qian family gradually declined, although there were some jinshi, they did not serve as zaifu in the court, and they couldn't win by fighting their father. The regular way, about the emperor is reluctant. What to do?

Hearing Zheng Lang's ten times and dozens of times, his heart was very yearning.

Taiping Prefecture has become a paradise on earth, if it is dozens of times, what will it become, is it a paradise on earth?

So discuss it, continue to collect the people, this is the public opinion, you have to get the approval of all the people in the nine counties of Hangzhou, and then the major households get together, get together, the annexation of the southeast is very serious, far better than Taipingzhou, ten ** households are tenant farmers, about Zheng Lang does not like, but also the court does not like the place.

Everyone took out 2,500 hectares of land, mostly bad mountain slopes, but it was also a wish, and it was handed over to the imperial court free of charge.

But there is one condition, Zheng Lang must come to Hangzhou.

At that time, there was no change in the personnel of the imperial court, Chen Yaozuo asked in wonder, are you not afraid that the imperial court will transfer Zheng Lang a month later and then transfer him away?

It's just as possible.

It's not a month, only a year and a half like Fan Zhongyan, and what political achievements can be brought to the local government, at least not Zheng Lang's kind of political achievements.

These merchants patted their chests and said, since we can come, we can stay.

It's really not good, we sent someone to forcibly watch Zheng Lang, and used public opinion to force the court to ignore the facts, so why should we stay for three or four years.

It's strange and weird.

Zhao Zhen was silent.

A few businessmen stayed in the capital with their buddies, when will the court give us an answer, and when will we go back.

It was precisely because of this matter that Zheng Lang wrote a letter to mention it.

When Zhao Zhen asks, he answers, and if he doesn't ask, he doesn't answer.

But no matter what, don't go back to the capital.

Another thing, there is the mean. After the rewriting, the golden mean was handed over to the two sons and let them be engraved and distributed.

Sima Guang talked with Lu Gongzhu for a while, and the first few were either thanked or agreed, but the latter one was not agreed.

So the book is not yet available.

The temple examination is here.

But after the palace examination, the two of them have not taken out the book yet, and they are waiting for the release of the list with peace of mind.

The number of people admitted in this class is less than that of the previous year, only 200 people and the first, 100 people are from the same background, and 165 people are from the same department, which is the history of the governors. But then it changed, and 410 people were given the first and 1st births, and 416 people were given special names.

Zhang Fangping was dumbfounded.

In order to save redundant officials, what efforts I made in the capital at the beginning.

In fact, it is very good, and the number of people who have been gifted in this session in history has reached 914.

But there was a small incident in this session, the provincial Yuan Fan Town was sung to seventy-nine, according to the routine, when the concert officials Ouyang Xiu and Wu Yu were called by the three, the provincial yuan did not appear, and he could resist and distinguish himself.

Fan Zhen didn't, and his name didn't appear until seventy-nine. The ministers were in an uproar, and then looked at Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen was also helpless, and the students made a fuss about the fraud, so they had to balance it and press Fan Zhen's name back.

Therefore, the champion fell to Yangzhou Lu Qin.

There was also a lifter on the side, and he said softly: "Brother Lutai, when you say it, it is true." ”

"Senior Brother Shao, otherwise, the knowledge you learn is different." Lu Qindao.

It was the two people who went to be the one who copied the characters.

At that time, the two of them were very envious when they saw the demeanor of Sima Guang and others, but they didn't expect that now they were on the same list as Zheng Lang and the two students, Shao Bi was a little behind, but Lu Qin became the champion.

and Qiongzhou Li Xuan won the list, and so on.

Anyway, the talents produced in this session are not as good as the previous ones, but the pressure is better than the previous session, and the number of places is also very small, and there are many stars in the Jinshi, such as Fan Zhen, the champion Lu Qin, Sun Kang, Wu Jifu, and Sima Guang and others, and the starlight quality is also higher than the previous session.

For a feast, the top three will be given five lamps of wine and food, and each will enter a poem of thanksgiving. It has nothing to do with Sima Guang and Lu Gong's writings, one is the ninth and the other is the thirty-second. Obediently eating ordinary rice, suddenly Sima Guang smiled slightly.

Lu Gongzhu looked at the rice and laughed.

Zhao Zhen was curious, although today's honor belonged to Lu Qin, he was very concerned about Zheng Lang's two students, so he asked: "Lu Qing, Sima Qing, why are you laughing?" ”

It's Fan Zhen that I'm suppressing, and it has nothing to do with you. But I also understand that Zheng Lang took two students and learned miscellaneous knowledge, not only knowledge, but also how to be a person and how to be an official. Can't be ranked, so they don't pay attention to the negligence of these two sons.

But on today's occasion, neither of them is suitable to show up, in history, Sima Guang showed a small face, did not wear flowers, this time he wore flowers, and Zheng Lang learned a lot of calmness, it doesn't matter. Sima Guang said concisely and clearly: "Your Majesty, it is the minister and Lu Sanlang who think of their juniors Fan Jialang and Erlang, who don't eat rock candy, but make Mr. embarrassed. ”

"Why is it difficult?" Zhao Zhen asked puzzled.

"I don't know if I should fast."

"Should you not fast?" Zhao Zhen thought for a while, and realized that this problem was not simple, and asked, "Should it not be done?" ”

Mr. didn't think about it for a while, and afterwards Fan Zhongyan said in the letter, such as Lin Hejing's example, it is okay to avoid the world, and there is nothing improper if you don't avoid the world, and it is okay to eat it, and it is not improper to eat it. But the gentleman probably understands now. ”

"What?"

"It's okay to eat, there's a degree, and there's nothing wrong with not eating. It is a virtuous move, but it is difficult to do it without eating, it is too strong, it is too luxurious to eat excessively, and it is also a virtue to lose. Therefore, if Mr. re-cultivates the mean, his face is no longer good. ”

Sima Guang wanted to sit down after speaking, and thought in his heart, don't ask Your Majesty, you have to ask another day, I don't want to be in the limelight today.

"Rebuilding the mean?" Zhao Zhen can ignore his mood, Zhao Zhen is very concerned about this moderation, if there are not some places that he does not agree with, it can be used as a standard for formulating national policies.

"Yes, Mr. sent the mediocre some time ago, and it is not the mediocre last year, and it has been overhauled."

"Where?"

"It's in the inn, but Your Majesty, today is the time to ride a horse and boast flowers." Sima Guang said calmly.

You don't think about the mean, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow have time, today is the champion moment, and the score is clear.

There is a faint hint of admonition.

And the demeanor is good, he is not nervous at all in the hall, quite like Zheng Lang back then.

Ouyang Xiu and Wu Yu couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and suddenly thought that they had taught Fan Wei in the past like teaching a child, and then they were relieved, they were not freaks, how could they enter a family?

Zhao Zhen had no choice but to say, "Sima Qing, you sit." ”

"Whoa."

But after this toss, many ministers couldn't help but focus their eyes on him and Lu Gongzhu.

The next day, Zhao Zhen summoned the two to the palace and asked them to bring the new Zhongyong.

flipped through it, couldn't help but "huh", flipped it up again, took out the previous book of moderation and compared, Zhao Zhen asked strangely: "Why did you make so many modifications?" ”

This new mediocre language is more gentle, especially the two articles of the world, which have been changed beyond recognition, and the attack on mergers and acquisitions has become more subtle, and the reasons for the division of Tang Dynasty feudal towns have completely disappeared.

Sima Guang replied, "Excuse me." ”

The reason is very simple, and now the Song Dynasty is a literati who preside over the world, including government affairs, including voices. Zheng Lang emphasized the role of military generals in the book, how did the literati group think? There is also the merger, which is mainly the Shidafu group and the elite group, which is certainly not right, but the words are too radical, and it will certainly make the two groups unhappy. offended the literati clique, the scholar clique and the elite clique. Nothing has changed, go home and be a customer.

Therefore, this world is not the world of the people, as long as you do not go too far, the people will always be enslaved by the elite. This is the realization that made Zheng Lang think about it to the end and be very discouraged.

If you want to reform, you must win the consent and acquiescence of the elite, so that they realize that this reform is to protect the interests of their children and grandchildren, otherwise the people will be oppressed to a certain point, rise up, and change the dynasty, not to mention the change of dynasty, most of them will be buried in this process of changing the dynasty, including the seven surnames and ten families of the Tang Dynasty.

Where are they now?

This reform is not a reform, but an improvement. It's not Zheng Lang's mediocrity, it's a new mean of compromise.

If we give up a part of the profits, appease the people below, and make a little accommodation, the society will be stable, and once it is stable, the scholar group and the elite group will last forever, instead of sharing the land with the rich and the poor.

This has become the theme of the new middle world.

But Zhao Zhen was like a treasure and said: "This book is good, it can be published all over the world." ”

Lu Gongshu and Sima Guang glanced at each other, and Mr. Yue still had the golden mean in his mind in the previous book, which could completely eliminate all the shortcomings of the Song Dynasty. However, they think the same as Zhao Zhen, although it is good, there is no feasible surname, and this book has a feasible surname. The system of the Song Dynasty has been decided, just like Mr. painted flowers, plum blossoms can be changed to peach blossoms, but they must not be changed to lotus flowers, and the surname is the same.

Sima Guang said again: "Your Majesty, the minister has a request. ”

"Say."

"Please allow Dr. Zheng to go to Hangzhou, also for the sake of the world."

Zhao Zhen was reading the world chapter, and it was changed well, and when he heard this, he asked strangely: "Why?" ”

How can only one Hangzhou represent the world?
