When the scribe saw Zhao Zhen coming in, he didn't come forward to greet him, and continued to stroke the qin, looking leisurely and wandering, very cold and arrogant.

Zhao Zhen stood quietly and listened respectfully, and did not disturb.

After stroking the song, the boy got up and walked in front of Zhao Zhen and took a deep look, "Tianzhang Pavilion waits for Wen Yanbo to see the official family." ”

Ye Pei raised his eyebrows, it turned out that this person was the famous Dr. Wen.

And he also knew that the person who came was the official Zhao Zhen, so he didn't get up and salute immediately, and sure enough, as rumored by the outside world, he was arrogant and arrogant, and the world was clear.

Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "Dr. Wen, don't come unharmed, today I will only talk about my talents, regardless of identity." ”

"The official family has tormented the micro-officials."

Ye Pei listened to Wen Yanbo's words and felt that he clearly thought he was a small official.

Zhao Zhen didn't care, but still said humbly: "It's a good time today, Dr. Wen's courtyard is very elegant and tight, how about we talk in this courtyard?" ”

"Dare to disobey!" Wen Yanbo ordered the servant to serve tea, and the three of them sat down on the small coffee table in the courtyard.

"Dr. Wen is still handy in the affairs of the Tianzhang Pavilion?" Zhao Zhen asked seemingly casually.

"What's the point of worrying about trivial matters?" Ye Pei listened to Wen Yanbo's tone so much that he just listened quietly to see what he was talking about.

"I heard that my father was a transfer envoy in Linzhou? What are Dr. Wen's political views? ”

"Back to the official family, my father did serve as a transfer envoy to Hedong, and at that time he wanted to repair the old road for transporting grain outside Linzhou Galaxy City, but unfortunately he never wished.

At this time, the Xia king had a heart of disobedience, and the border was unstable, so he should really make plans early and build roads in advance in case of emergency. ”

"Dr. Wen has already gone out of the Tianzhang Pavilion!" Zhao Zhen looked at Wen Yanbo with a smile.

"The ministers are concerned about the affairs of the country and the dynasty, and they dare not only be lazy about the articles in the cabinet."

"Well, if I am interested in legislating the New Deal at this time, what new insights does Dr. Wen have?"

"New Deal legislation? The official family dares to be the first in the world and exerts himself to change the law, which is done by a wise monarch! ”

Wen Yanbo stood up and looked at Zhao Zhen deeply, and continued: "The minister believes that the new coup law is first and foremost about eliminating the redundant soldiers and purging the imperial court. ”

"Eliminate the redundant soldiers?"

"Yes, if you want to legislate a new deal, you must first streamline and be efficient. Since Taizu Taizong, there have been a large number of shadow officials in each dynasty, and after the war against Liao, the number of soldiers has increased year by year.

In today's peaceful and prosperous era, these officials and soldiers eat the country's money in vain, but they don't do practical things, and they don't know how to respect the officials because of the kindness of the previous generation of emperors.

If the officials want to purge the government and the opposition, they must first implement the method of reducing personnel and increasing efficiency. The remaining officials will inevitably be at their own risk, and they will do their best to be loyal, and they will inevitably make tangible achievements during their time in power, and if they do not advance, they will retreat, so as to seek promotion.

Therefore, the minister believes that if the official family is inspired by the new law, it must be started from this. Wen Yanbo said firmly.

"Wen Qing's family is reasonable." Zhao Zhen groaned and listened very excitedly.

"If Wen Qing looks at it, if you want to reduce the number of employees and increase efficiency, but you don't want to cause officialdom riots, where should you start?"

Wen Yanbo saw that the official Zhao Zhen was very interested in the policy he entered, and he was even more eloquent, as if he had been waiting for Zhao Zhen's visit for many years.

These New Deal ideas are also the summary of his painstaking efforts over the years.

"The official family is extremely worried, if you want to reduce the number of personnel, the first thing must be to avoid officialdom riots, I have concluded that there are three methods, one is to settle down reasonably; the second is to select talents and try to recruit talents; The third is ......"

Ye Pei listened to their chatting energetically, but he couldn't interject, so he got up and took a look in the courtyard casually.

She looked at the flower and fish pond, went to the flower hall to admire the guqin, and then went to the copywriter to look at the words mentioned on the table.

That Chengxintang paper was actually half a word, I thought it was Wen Yanbo who didn't think about it, Fuqin thought about it, and happened to meet Zhao Zhen coming in.

Ye Pei watched carefully, and a line of Yan Zhenqing-like fonts jumped on the paper, the knots were sparse and elegant, and the penmanship was clear and powerful.

"It's hard to get married, and it's hard to find a soulmate. The white snow in spring attracts business feathers, and the lonely fragrance is full of fragrance. When does Boya meet the childbearing stage? ”

It is half of "Tasha Xing", which is really proud of his talents, and actually expresses the author's feelings of not meeting talents.

Ye Pei listened to the conversation between Wen Yanbo and Zhao Zhen just now, and felt that he was indeed knowledgeable and insightful, and sighed that he was a good word and a good word.

After a little thought, he continued the words in the back.

"Huai Jin holds Yu, and the wind is up. The wind flutters its wings for 90,000 miles. The thick snow is difficult to cover the honeysuckle buds, and the green bamboo is only one day. ”

Ye Pei's words can not be described by Juanxiu, her font is chic, vigorous and powerful, and a few words are even written to the dry pen, which gives people a sense of wanton heroism.

After Ye Pei finished writing, he admired it with satisfaction.

Zhao Zhen listened carefully to Wen Yanbo's speech and nodded.

Suddenly found that Ye Pei, who was sitting next to him, walked away, looked back, looked at what Ye Pei was looking at, and got up to watch.

After Ye Pei took a closer look, he turned around again, but saw Zhao Zhen and Wen Yanbo both standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.

Ye Pei smiled shyly and said: "Dr. Wen, I see that you have made a good word, Ye is presumptuous, the dog's tail continues to be mink, and he laughs and laughs." ”

Wen Yanbo looked at Ye Pei's literary brilliance, and admired it in his heart, and said: "A good sentence Feng Peng flapped his wings for 90,000 miles, thank you Ye Gongzi for your guidance, Wen Mou has always been talented, but he doesn't know that there are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains!" ”

Zhao Zhen said: "Dr. Wen should not be alone in self-appreciation, but should use his talents and ambitions to the people's livelihood, serve the imperial court, and strive for the benefits of the people." ”

Ye Pei smiled: "Dr. Wen has met your child today!" ”

Wen Yanbo knelt on the ground with a "plop" after hearing this: "Official, you have the grace of knowing Wen Yanbo, and you are willing to serve the official family in your lifetime!" ”

Zhao Zhen also looked at Ye Pei appreciatively, and Ye Pei smiled proudly.

A month later, Wen Yanbo was promoted from the idle Tianzhang Pavilion to the palace servant, and then because of the rebellion of the king of the rebellion, he was exceptionally promoted to the privy deputy envoy, and then successively served as the governor of the political affairs, Tongping Zhangshi, and the general entered the prime minister, and began his career in the four dynasties!

------

When Zhao Zhen and Ye Pei left Wen Yanbo's house, it was past noon.

Passing by Daqing Tower, Ye Pei said: "I haven't eaten the food and drink fruits outside the palace for a long time, let's go to Daqing Tower for lunch?" ”

Chen Zhongyi said: "Miss Ye, it's not safe to eat outside, let's go back to the palace early!" ”

Ye Pei ignored it, pulled Zhao Zhen and said, "Sixth brother, I really want to eat the food fruits of Daqing Building, and I can also listen to the storyteller, okay?" ”

Zhao Zhen was so grinding that he couldn't do it, and said: "Today, Pei'er persuaded Wen Yanbo to have merit, so I will reward you to go to Daqing Tower to eat once!" ”

Ye Pei smiled triumphantly.

On the Daqing Building, the two of them found a good place to listen to the book and sat down, the guards held the door of the private room, Chen Zhongyi tried the dishes one by one with a silver needle, and then relieved to put the food and fruit on the table.

Zhao Zhen and Ye Pei were eating, listening to the storyteller downstairs and spitting lotus flowers.

I saw that the general was dressed in bright silver elm leaf armor, riding a fat horse with a white night under his crotch, with a bronze beast head armor on his face, and his head was scattered, like a demon lord possessed, which made people feel frightened.

He held a three-pointed two-edged knife, shining in the cold light under the sun, and took the lead in rushing straight to the enemy formation of Western Xia, facing Li Shougui, the general of Western Xia, holding a Zhangba snake spear gun.

General Mian Ni will be a knife, a straight rush, straight to the neck, the enemy general will not show weakness, short body hidden on the side of the horse, General Mian Ni swept the air, missed the horse's head, the enemy general turned around and stabbed General Mian Ni in the back of the heart.

It's too late, it's too fast, and the sharp eyes are about to stab the red robe flying behind General Mian Ni. ”

Everyone present took a breath and sweated for General Mian Ni, and even Zhao Zhen stopped the silver chopsticks in his hand and stared and listened.

The general was not in a hurry, he turned around, flashed the tip of the grab, and the whole person flew up from the horse, picked up the three-pointed two-edged knife and slashed at the enemy general of Western Xia.

The enemy general thought that he was going to succeed, and he was proud, but he didn't want half of his arms and head to be cut off by General Mian Ni, and his bones rolled to the ground, with a sly smile on his face! ”

Hearing this, the hearts of everyone present fell back into their stomachs, and then burst into thunderous applause.

The applause fell, and the storyteller continued: "General Mian Ne killed the head of the enemy army and rushed into the enemy formation first, then the Western Xia soldiers have long been frightened, which one dares to intercept, which one can stop it?"

General Mian Nirvana is really mighty, God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, the horns of the bronze beast head shine golden in the afterglow of the sunset, the blue-faced and fanged beast, who is not afraid to see it?

Our Song army is also a hero, everyone is heroic, following the horse of General Mian Ni, the shouting of killing shook the heavens and the earth, killing the Western Xia soldiers and ghosts crying wolves, holding their heads and running away, and escaping for more than ten miles! ”

"Oh! Oh! Oh! The audience erupted in thunderous applause again.

Someone shouted: "The Song army is heroic, long live the dynasty!" ”

Everyone in the restaurant shouted: "The Song army is heroic, long live the dynasty!" ”

Zhao Zhen was very helpful when he heard it, and looked at the people upstairs in Daqing with a smile.

The storyteller stopped, and someone shouted, "Say one more paragraph!" The crowd couldn't get enough of it, and they all cried out for another one.

But the storyteller did not move in his tone, and the discerning man saw the joints, and someone threw down a string of copper coins and shouted, "Give it to you, and say another paragraph." ”

Three or five more men threw down strings of copper coins, and their cries grew louder and louder.

Zhao Zhen instructed Chen Zhongyi: "Take ten taels of silver and go down to reward the storyteller, let him say it again." ”

Chen Zhongyi trotted all the way to the first floor with a silver ingot, put it on the storyteller's table and said, "My master rewards you, let's talk about it!" ”

Storytellers often see strings of copper coins, and how many times have I seen such ingots of silver, and I am so happy that my eyebrows and eyes are together. bowed to the attic where Zhao Zhen was sitting, "Thank you for the reward, and the villain will say a little more." ”

Shocked Tang Mu patted, "Speaking of General Mian Ni, what method did he use to break the Western Xia army in Yanzhou?" It turned out that before setting out on the expedition, he threw out a hundred copper coins and said to the soldiers of the three armies: I pray to God to bless my Great Song army to win the battle, and the momentum is like a bamboo!

If Heaven has promised my prayer, please feel on these hundred copper coins, and let them all face up. One or two copper coins are easy to pass the treasure word upward, and a hundred copper coins are literally upward, if there is no divine help, how is it possible?

I only saw that General Nirvana had words in his mouth, and suddenly threw all the copper coins, guess what? ”

"What's wrong?" The guest officers below didn't eat any more food or drink, and listened with wide eyes.

"It's really blessed by God and Buddha, hundreds of copper coins fell to the ground in the wind, and all the soldiers gathered around to see: all of them are Tongbao characters facing up, without exception."

There was another burst of cheers below: "God and Buddha bless me in the Great Song Dynasty, long live the dynasty!" ”

Ye Pei heard that it was not enough, and whispered to Zhao Zhen: "What's so strange about all the words up?" You can make words on both sides, or one side is heavy and the other is light, I've been a ghost like this before. ”

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, scratched Ye Pei's nose and said, "As far as you have a lot of ghost ideas, can a general make trouble like you?" ”

Ye Pei stuck out his tongue: "I don't believe that he can be literal if he doesn't make trouble." ”

Zhao Zhen glared at Ye Pei and motioned for Ye Pei to continue listening and speaking, and the two stopped talking.
