"Life is in motion. If the water does not move, it is stagnant water; If a man does not move, he is dead; If the country does not exercise, it will grow old and perish; If the universe doesn't move, it will collapse! ”

At this moment, Zhao Pu had a sense of enlightenment.

Why did the Northern Song Dynasty perish? There are many reasons, and a few thick reasons can be said in a row, but there is only one real reason, and that is the lack of exercise.

"Xiao Xiuxiu, it seems that locking you in the palace is a mistake in itself. It is no wonder that in history, emperors and concubines did not live long, died young, and lacked exercise. Or do you exercise more, play basketball, skip rope, volleyball, tennis, etc., and don't become a rotten girl? Zhao Pu seemed to be persuading Shu Wenxiu, and even more so persuading himself.

No wonder the emperor is short-lived, and the concubine dies early, the former is an otaku, and the latter is a rotten girl. are too lazy to move, lack of enough exercise, and have a lot of psychological pressure, and as a result, they die tragically and die early.

"What is a rotten girl?" Shu Wenxiu asked.

Zhao Pu said: "Rotten girl, just too lazy to exercise, her body is rusty and moldy, and there is a tendency to rot!" ”

Shu Wenxiu nodded, somewhat understood.

In fact, the rotten girl is everyone's girlfriend.

It's just that His Majesty the Emperor obviously doesn't like everyone's ladies, and he doesn't like the kind of woman who doesn't go out of the door and doesn't step out of the second door. I like that kind of exercise, I like that kind of wild girl!

Vaguely, Shu Wenxiu thought of Wang Wuyue, this bewitching woman.

The emperor loves him very much, almost responds to requests, and seems to be loved by thousands of people; But Shu Wenxiu knew that in the emperor's mind, Wang Wuyue's status was higher.

The emperor regards him as a good woman.

She is not only the wife of Shang King Wuding, but also one of the important ministers under Shang King Wuding. Good woman. Not only commanded one-tenth of the army under the Shang king, but also had his own fiefdom and title, and used the tripod as a food vessel. Later generations are even more sacrificed, called Mu Xin.

It's just the Shang Dynasty, it's too far away from the Great Song Dynasty!

In the Shang Dynasty, there was no saying that the harem could not interfere in politics. However, the Song Dynasty, between Wu Zetian and Empress Wei's rebellion, strictly prohibited the harem from interfering in politics.

But here it is. Wang Wuyue is here, but she made an exception. Wang Wuyue commanded the palace guards, about 5,000 people, most of them were the elite army of the Eight-Character Army, and they were really important figures in the army. Some ministers have advised him. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so as not to make the chicken Si Chen.

The emperor has a good temper. Rarely gets angry. There was some Emperor Renzong's demeanor, but at that moment he was angry. Immediately take action, dismiss those officials who have written in the book, one after another, and stay away from the capital.

In the end, the emperor said: "She is not my concubine, she has no name!" ”

Truly. At this moment, Wang Wuyue has not received any title, and she does not seem to be in the harem, but everyone knows that she is the emperor's woman.

Emperor. In this cunning way, he avoided the reproach of his courtiers.

"Your Majesty, the concubine knows!" Shu Wenxiu said absentmindedly.

Zhao Pu said: "Tomorrow is the day the bank opens. You go out with me to have a look! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Shu Wenxiu said, "Sister Nayue, are you going too?" ”

Zhao Pu said: "She has important things to do, and she can't leave them for the time being!" ”

If you think about it carefully, the only person who can be completely trustworthy is Wang Wuyue. Only Wang Wuyue can be trusted thoroughly, and she can rest assured that she will hand over her back.

That matter, in addition to the fact that she can handle it, it is really difficult for outsiders to handle!

……………………

The next day, it was a good day.

As the bank is about to officially open, it is natural that some people will go to the town, and most of the prime ministers and officials of the six ministries present will attend the opening ceremony as long as they have leisure and have no important affairs.

The door of the bank, there are no ornate decorations, some are just simple and clear. On the door plaque, the big character "Huitong World" is written, and the left and right are written couplets, and the left couplet is "Savings are pots, can gather treasures, millions of households, and every household is a depositor"; The right link is "investment is like a tree, you can shake money, seventy-two lines, and the line does not leave the bank".

The name of the bank, which is called Huitong Bank.

Zhao Pu once thought of calling it "Da Song Bank", or "Royal Bank", or "Central Bank" and other domineering names, but after thinking about it, forget it!

The name is too big, and it is easy to die young!

Today's opening ceremony of the bank, Zhao Pu naturally wants to attend.

It's just that he is the emperor after all, and his status is noble, and it seems that the emperor's majesty is directly exposed in such a copper-smelling place. I can only take a step back, disguise myself, drink tea in a restaurant with a good location, and watch the opening ceremony outside.

At this time, in the restaurant, there were several people accompanying each other, Wang Boyan on the left, Qin Hui on the right, and on the side, Shu Wenxiu dressed as a man. All around are tightly guarded by guards, looking around vigilantly, this layer has been covered, only a few of them.

"Today, it's a good day!"

seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a little depressed, and Zhao Pu said without words.

"The official, the minister is not convinced!" Wang Boyan said indignantly, "Since he became the prime minister, Weichen has trembled, worked hard to deal with state affairs, and was deeply afraid of a trace of mistakes, loyal to the country, did his best, and broke his heart, but in the end, he was accused everywhere by false people, and summed up that Weichen had eight major crimes." Wechen is not convinced! ”

Thinking back to the impeachment movement, Wang Boyan became unhappy, he felt that he was much stronger than Li Gang and Zhao Dingke, but he was treated unfairly, and he was indignant in his heart, and he only wanted to tear those impeached people to pieces.

Zhao Pu smiled slightly, ignored it, and looked at Qin Hui.

There are some things that don't have much to hide.

For example, the various impeachment of Wang Boyan may not be visible to outsiders, but Zhao Pu learned through the internal guards that they are more or less related to Qin Hui.

It's just that Zhao Pu doesn't care.

Between courtiers, it is not normal if there is no struggle, and it is normal if there is a struggle, as long as it does not deviate from the predetermined track.

Sensing the emperor's eyes, Qin Hui seemed to understand something, and asked, "Lord Wang, what kind of character do you think Zhuge Wuhou is?" And what kind of person is Jing Gong, the king of my dynasty? ”

Wang Boyan said: "Zhuge Liang is a generation of Ming Xiang, maintaining the stability of Shu and making great contributions; And Wang Anshi is just a generation of traitors, which makes our dynasty have the shame of Jingkang. These two people are loyal and traitorous, like white clouds and dirt. ”

Qin Hui smiled and said: "Zhuge Liang's talent lies in cultural governance, not in martial arts. Its talent lies in the stability and richness of Shu, and it can resist the strong Wei in the north with a corner of land; As for martial arts, six out of Qishan, returned without success, which shows the lack of martial arts. Scholars use soldiers, they don't know the depths, how can they not be defeated! Can we talk about character? Zhuge Wuhou, his character is really not good! The eradication of dissidents caused Li Yan, Liao Li and other ministers to be degraded one after another, and only Zhuge faction was in the court, forming a trend of monopolizing power, resulting in the power of the latter lord being hollowed out, comparable to a puppet. And the successor, Jiang Wei, also continues to set up the queen, and the queen is still a puppet. Everyone in the world laughs at the queen, but they don't know that the queen is just a puppet, no soldiers, no power, no emperor's name, nothing! ”

Wang Boyan's face was solemn, and he shouted: "Are you accusing the old man of dictatorship? ”

"The official family appointed an adult as the prime minister, and his power is comparable to Cai Jing, so he hopes to be fair and selfless, but what about the adult? However, with the help of his own selfishness, he privately seized the impeachment chapter, so that the officials could not hear the chaotic things. Is the prime minister innocent? Qin Hui's words were accurate and aggressive.

At this moment, all pretense and elegance are gone, and some are just shirtless, and you are dead or alive.

There can be no mercy in political struggle.

"You...... Slandered the old man! Wang Boyan's hands trembled a little, and he was indeed pointed to the pain by Qin Hui.

What the emperor is most afraid of is not the rebellious ministers and thieves, not the rebellion of the rebellious people, but in the name of loyalty, the emperor is hollowed out and the emperor becomes a puppet.

"And who is Wang Anshi?" Qin Hui said, "Wang Anshi was famous for his literary talent when he was young, and Ouyang Xiu, the leader of the literary world at that time, couldn't help but praise after reading Wang Anshi's articles: "There are 3,000 Hanlin Fengyue poems, and 200 years of official articles." The self-pity is still there when you are old, and who will compete with your son later. "I have a very high evaluation of Wang Anshi. Such a famous person, just being a small magistrate, will inevitably be suspected of burying talents. The strange thing is that there were many people who recommended Wang Anshi at that time, and Wang Anshi couldn't do anything. Even important court officials like Ouyang Xiu and Wen Yanbo expressed the hope that Wang Anshi would come to Beijing to take up a post, but Wang Anshi refused. Wang Anshi's behavior is quite incomprehensible to ordinary people. Perhaps Wang Anshi's mentality at that time was somewhat similar to Wang Mang in the Western Han Dynasty, who wanted to retreat as advance in order to gain greater fame. ”

"But I don't think so. Serving as an official in the capital certainly has many advantages, but the people in the capital are complicated, and the intrigues are constant, which will inevitably involve their respective interest systems, and entering the capital too early will have few benefits and great disadvantages. Wang Anshi has always been committed to the local area, in order to use local experience to accumulate experience in changing the law. ”

Wang Anshi succeeded, and the local experience led him to put forward a series of decrees. the Seedlings Law to slow down the exploitation of the people by usury; The law of exemption from military service and the law of conscription increased the financial resources of the imperial court. The market law broke the monopoly of big businessmen on the market; Fangtian Uniform Tax Law, which inhibits mergers; The equal-loss law restricts the manipulation of the market by big businessmen and the exploitation of the people. The armor protection law, the peasants are organized as armor protection, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the army; Under the Horse Protection Law, the official horses were maintained by farmers, which reduced government expenditures. The art of war will make the soldiers know their generals and train their soldiers, thus enhancing the combat effectiveness of the army. The establishment of an ordnance superintendent to supervise the manufacture of weapons has improved the output and quality of weapons. ”

"If these decrees are implemented, my Great Song Dynasty may really be prosperous. It's a pity that Wang Anshi overestimated his talent and underestimated the inferiority of human nature! ”

"As the head of a state, living in the center can be described as a shallow foundation and lack of connections, and most of them will be restricted everywhere. At this moment, Wang Anshi should keep quiet, accumulate contacts, win over gentlemen, and reduce resistance; It's a pity that he is too impatient, always thinking about changing the law quickly and becoming rich and strong quickly, but how do you know that it is difficult to govern the country and become rich and strong? The foundation is not strong, but it makes enemies everywhere, how can it be undefeated! (To be continued......)
