Zhao Ji is really a hard-working emperor, and when he talks about the banquet, he talks about the government and politics, and when he talks, he mentions Wang Anshi, the old prince who retired in Jiangning. Zhao Ji remembered that he was forced by the emperor's relatives and conservative ministers and fell into a predicament, Wang Anshi said in order to relieve the siege: "The one attacked by the ministers is not Your Majesty, but the old ministers; It's not an old minister, it's a new law. Before Wang Anshi left Beijing, he met the emperor and said: "Although the old minister is far away from the government disputes, His Majesty must adhere to the new law, otherwise the previous achievements will be wasted, and the country will ......be in danger."
Although Wang Anshi was driven out of the court, but the powerful and conservative faction had not yet had time to celebrate, but ushered in a more terrible Xiangye than Wang Anshi - Cai Qu, this Xiangye is different from Wang Anshi, Wang Anshi in order to implement the new law, although he cracked down on dissidents and rejected the purge of the opposition, but he only demoted or exiled him, never framed his opponent for crimes, and never tried to put the other party to death, he was really a fair and upright gentleman. Cai is indeed different, he is good at scheming, in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the new policy and protect the achievements of the new policy, unscrupulous means, even at the expense of fabricating charges to build prison. It is rumored that he once commented on Wang Anshi in private, saying that he: "Similar to Xiang Yu, the benevolence of a woman is not enough to establish a new law." Zhao Ji glanced at Cai Cheng and saw that he was less than fifty years old, and he was already full of gray hair, knowing that he was working hard for state affairs, and said with emotion: "In my serious illness, I have worked hard for Cai Qing." Cai Qu hurriedly got up from his seat and said: "The minister is fortunate to have the emperor's trust to serve as the right minister, and he should do his best, how dare he call it hard?" Zhao Ji pressed his right hand downward and said with a smile: "Aiqing sit down, you don't have to get up to reply, now that the state affairs are difficult, you and I will be able to prosper the Great Song Dynasty with one heart." β
Lin Tian was a writer in the 21st century, of course, he also wrote novels of the Song Dynasty*, and he also had an understanding of the history of Emperor Shenzong's change of law. the art of accumulating and harming lives", Wang Anshi's financial management ideas were criticized as "stripping the people and rejuvenating profits...... Later, the science of "preserving the principles of heaven and destroying human desires" became the mainstream ideology, and Wang Anshi's scholarship was denied and degraded as "heresy" -- it can be said that he was knocked to the ground and trampled on thousands of feet. Thinking of this, Lin Tian couldn't help but shake his head and sneer.
Rao is Zhao Ji has a very high cultivation, and he can't help but be a little angry, but he still calms down and asks, "Why is the Lord of the Forest Sect laughing?" Lin Tian turned his head to look at him and said with a smile: "I laugh at someone sitting in a well watching the sky and daydreaming. Lin Tian's "someone" naturally refers to Zhao Ji. The so-called death of the monarch and the minister, Cai did not care about it, Zhao Ji had not yet spoken, but he first stood up and reprimanded: "Bold, dare to satirize the Son of Heaven!! "A loyal minister. Wang Gui also frowned, obviously very dissatisfied with Lin Tian, and Su Shi even gave the color to Lin Tian, but Lin Tian didn't seem to see it.
Zhao Ji was angry in his chest, ordered Cai Qu to sit down, and said, "I want to listen to the high opinion of the master of the forest gate." "I said in my heart: Cai Qing is really a loyal minister. Lin Tian looked around and asked, "Have you ever heard the story of boiling a frog in warm water?" Zhao Ji, Cai Qu, Wang Gui and others frowned and shook their heads, they had never heard of it, this was Ah Zi suddenly stood up and said crisply: "I have heard this story." Of course she had heard this story, and Lin Tian told it to him, and Lin Tian said dotingly: "Then sister, tell them about it." Princess Yan Xi clapped her hands on the side and urged: "Hurry up, hurry up, listen to the story......"
Ah Zi was full of pride, and said: "I know the story of boiling frogs in warm water, and my brother told me the ......" At this point, he glanced at Lin Tian, saw Lin Tianzheng looking at himself with a smile, and was deeply encouraged, and continued: "The story says that water is poured into a pot, a frog is put in it, and then a fire is lit underneath to boil water, and the water temperature is slowly heated, because the speed is slow, so the frog can't detect it, so it won't be in a hurry to resist and jump out of the pot, and when it swims leisurely in the pot until the water is unbearably hot, it will jump out of the pot again, It was already too late, because by then it was powerless to struggle out. β
After the story was told, Zhao Ji and the others frowned for a long time, thinking about the moral of it. Seeing this, Su Shi asked: "So what Mr. Lin means ......" Lin Tian poured himself a glass of wine and said: "As far as Lin knows, the law has been vigorously implemented since Xining three years ago, and the law of equal loss, the law of market change, the law of exemption, the law of green seedlings, the law of conscription, etc., etc., from the economy to agriculture to the military to education, it has been in full swing for more than ten years......" He shook his head and continued: "Or some achievements have been made in a short period of time, but it is just a flower in the moon and water in the mirror, and it is an illusion after all." β
Zhao Ji had already come back to his senses at this time, frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "How can you say this?" Lin Tian looked at the king who was holding back his anger, a little funny, and said: "The elegant point is called too much, and the slang point is that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." β
Seeing that Zhao Ji was puzzled, he pointed out and said: "The implementation of the new policy is too hasty and hasty, and it is unrealistic to vainly attempt to rectify discipline and streamline redundant personnel by thunderous means. Think about it, how many officials were there in the Great Song Dynasty? These officials are intertwined, not only how many relationships do they have, but how many branches will be cut off at once, and how many people will be revolted? This force must be extremely terrifying, to offend the interests of the national officials, this is simply because the national officials are enemies, there are fewer official positions, how can the scholars get ahead? Then the scholars were also offended, what about the landlords and gentry behind them? It will inevitably lead to fierce opposition and even the shaking of the country......"
Lin Tian looked at Zhao Ji, whose face was blue and white for a while, and said: "The prince is suspicious of the public, you are persecuted by the royal relatives and the Manchu Qingliu, hehe, isn't it that force?" It is true that Zhao Ji's mind is now full of his efforts to implement the new law since he ascended the throne, but in the end, he was forced to accept Wang Anshi's resignation.
At this time, Lin Tian seemed to say casually: "It seems that you are not yet forty years old, and you are in the prime of life, how can you get any strange disease?" Hmph, to put it mildly, it may not be the poisonous hand of some forces!! β
After Lin Tian said this, several people who were doing it were shocked, and they were actually scared and sweating in the cold weather, it was a cold sweat! Zhao Ji's expression was sad, clearly believing in this possibility, and said in a lamented voice: "Since I ascended the throne, I have been worried about state affairs, I dare not slack off, and I don't want them to ......" I wanted to speak and stopped, but I only let out a long sigh, full of grief and helplessness.
Lin Tian's eyes flashed, he didn't know what he was thinking, there was a short silence on the wine table, and even Ah Zi and other children stopped and looked at these adults. After a long time, Zhao Ji turned to Su Shi and smiled miserably, and said, "I heard that Su Qing was kidnapped by gangs on the Yangtze River? Hehe, I've been affected by me. Su Shi didn't dare to say anything, and told the situation of the day again.
After listening to Su Shi's words, Zhao Ji toasted to Lin Tian, saying that he was thanking the courtiers and the emperor toasting, and he wanted to give face, and after drinking with a smile, Lin Tian opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know what kind of gang it is?" Although Lin Tian had fought with that gang that day, in fact, he had very little experience in the rivers and lakes, and he didn't know where the other party came from, but since Zhao Ji mentioned this matter, then as the emperor, although he can't decide the affairs of the rivers and lakes, there must be an intelligence organization that goes deep into the rivers and lakes.
Zhao Ji was a little surprised by Lin Tian's question, but he didn't know it either, turned back and turned back, at this time, Zhao Fuan, the guard eunuch who had been standing behind him, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Linmen, what intercepted Lord Su that day was a gang of gangsters called the Changhe Gang on the Yangtze River waterway, this Changhe Gang ...... "There was originally a Song Dynasty, the business was relatively developed, and it was inconvenient to rely on the land to transport goods from north to south, which promoted the development of water transportation, and water transportation is inseparable from cargo ships, this Changhe Gang is a group of boat gangs on the waterway, and there are hundreds of boat bosses under them, There are more than 1,000 large and small cargo ships. Although this group of people also started a gang to set up a village, they usually do not participate in disputes in the rivers and lakes, but are only bent on occupying waterways to make money.
Lin Tian took advantage of the situation and said, "Then what did they intercept the Su family's ships for?" Someone behind it? Zhao Fuan didn't answer, looked at Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji nodded and took the words, and said with a wry smile: "People in the world only know that the surname of this world is Zhao, hehe, in fact, where is it?" The world is divided into three, Zhao, Han, and Lu each take one of them...... "At the moment, Zhao Ji told the secret of the dynasty again, in fact, this is not a big secret, almost everyone who is an official in the court knows it, and there are also Shaw family writings: "Han, Lu, the ministers of the court, the people of the world, not from Han, that is, from Lu" - this shows the monstrous power of Han and Lu. However, the power of these two families is in the north (north of the Yangtze River), but Zhao Kuangyi won the world with the help of Han Lu!! Of course, this rule was later abolished because of Wang Qinruo's appearance.
Wang Anshi's reform law has a square field tax law, which is divided into two parts: square field and average tax. Fangtian refers to the land measurement held by the county magistrate in September every year, according to the fertility of the land positioning of the fifth, the average tax is based on the results of the measurement of the field, the number of taxes is formulated. The Fangtian Tax Law cleared out the land concealed by the powerful landlords, increased the state revenue, and lightened the peasants' burdens, but at the same time it seriously damaged the interests of the big bureaucrats and big landlords, the biggest of which were the Han family and the LΓΌ family, and the LΓΌ family, which had been the family for nearly a thousand years, was the most. Although the emperor vigorously implemented Wang Anshi's reforms, it was beneficial to the country and the people, but it also promoted the union of the Han and Lu families.
Marx famously said: If capital has ten percent profit, it dares to guarantee that it will be used everywhere; With twenty percent profit, it becomes active; With a 50 percent profit, it takes a risk; For the sake of 100 percent profit, it dares to trample on all human laws; There is a 300% profit; It dares to commit any crime, "Although killing the monarch is a crime of exterminating the nine clans, but the Han and Lu families may not do it in order to protect the interests of the family for a long time, Zhao Ji is strange, and it is very likely that it is the secret hand of Han Lu."
Because they know that if Wang Anshi is forced out, there will be Cai Qu, and if Cai Qu is forced away, there will be so-and-so, and there will be so-and-so in the future, and they can only get rid of Jun once and for all!!
