Su Shi was still watching from the sidelines at first, he was still waiting for Fan Zhongyan to go crazy and reason with himself and Lu Wu, in that case, they would fight back and make him fall completely.

Unexpectedly, Fan Zhongyan reacted very quickly, seeing that things were not good, he took the initiative to admit his mistake, and then asked for forgiveness on the grounds that he needed to preside over the new deal.

But Zhao Zhen was still moved, and he really wanted to forgive him.

Didn't Zhao Zhen know that doing so was tantamount to violating the Song Law?

Come to think of it, the emperor of a country, he is the sky, and his words are the meaning of the Son of Heaven, which is far greater than the law.

Fan Zhongyan needs to continue to preside over the new policy, compared to an illegal underground gambling house, what is it?

That's the trade-off. An emperor often has to do. They usually don't look at right or wrong, they just see which outcome is better for them and they choose which outcome.

Now, Zhao Zhen wants to choose Fan Zhongyan, once he does this, Fan Zhongyan will be fine, and he will have something to do with him.

Although Su Shi is not afraid, after all, he is also Jane's person in the emperor's heart, and he is also a celebrity in front of Zhao Zhen. And he can also bring a lot of benefits and benefits to Zhao Zhen. It's not a good thing to be stared at by a second-grade master, and this is not what Su Shi wants.

"You're pushing me."

After sighing in his heart, without waiting for Zhao Zhen to speak, Su Shi in the wheelchair spoke first. "The New Deal? Hahaha. ”33

For the Qingli New Deal, Su Shi has always looked down on it in his heart.

Don't say that the New Deal failed in history, looking at the content of their reforms, even if they succeeded in the end, it was impossible to change the Great Song Dynasty.

Considering that he was in the whirlpool, Su Shi had also studied the New Deal when he had nothing to do, which made him see a lot of drawbacks. But in line with the idea that it has nothing to do with himself, the most important thing is that Zhao Zhen is very optimistic about the new deal, so Su Shi is not good at saying something in it.

Right now, Fan Zhongyan wants to rely on the New Deal to regain Zhao Zhen's trust, and once he is in power again, needless to say, he will definitely target himself, even if it is for himself to live happily, at this time, Su Shi must also stand up and say something.

The sound of laughter attracted the attention of Zhao Zhen, Fan Zhongyan, and Lu Wu.

Especially the latter, his eyes have already widened, what does this Su Shi want to do, the hall is crazy?

Could it be that you really have a brain disease, and you are going crazy?

didn't give everyone a chance to guess, and even Su Shi, who laughed a few times, spoke, "Is the new deal?" Speaking of which, the ministers are not talented, but they have some understanding of themselves, and I ask Your Majesty to allow the ministers to talk about their views. ”

Su Shi is naturally not very old, but he has always been in good order.

Many times, it seems that he is very reckless in doing things, but when the matter is over, you will find that his so-called reckless practices have finally achieved a good result.

Once so, it can also be said to be luck. But if this is the case again and again, then what does it mean, it is worth thinking about carefully.

Especially the matter of Su Shi going to Liaodi to take revenge.

At that time, everyone was not optimistic about him, the three envoys of the Liao State, such an important minister was afraid that Su Shi would not be able to contact him, let alone kill the other party to take revenge.

But this is what everyone thinks is not feasible and impossible, but it was done by Su Shi.

With this alone, whoever wants to underestimate Su Shi must be a fool.

That's right, although Su Shi has done a lot of things, but it is not reflected in business, or in force, and he has never participated in government affairs.

This may be Su Shi's intention to avoid suspicion, after all, every aspect is very good, so it is difficult not to attract attention. At that time, he wanted to be a rich man with peace of mind, but it became impossible.

Su Shi just didn't express his opinion on political affairs, but it didn't mean that he didn't have an opinion.

In fact, it is just the opposite, Zhao Zhen thinks that Su Shi is not simple, but Su Shi has always been very observant, and he did not force the other party to ask the other party's opinion.

Now, Su Shi wants to express his opinion on the matter of the new deal, Zhao Zhen is also interested at the moment, when he looks at Su Shi, there is some expectation in his eyes, and he also wants to hear what this courtier, who he has always thought is very smart, thinks about the issue of the new deal in Qingli.

Fan Zhongyan didn't know what Zhao Zhen thought, he only knew that Su Shi was just a hairy boy. Even if he has some ability, he is just lucky to get a trade route, and he can also have a little medical skills, and at most he has a little ability to lead soldiers.

It is impossible for a person to be proficient in everything, and it is impossible to be powerful in every aspect, not to mention that Su Shi is only sixteen years old. I think that when he was so old, he was still studying the books of sages and sages, and he didn't dare to participate in the major affairs of the imperial court.

Su Shi wanted to express his views on the new deal at such an age, Fan Zhongyan thought that this was simply beyond his strength, and he laughed out loud at the moment, "What? You said that you have an opinion on the New Deal, and you really laughed to death, do you know what the specific content of the New Deal is? ”

"Of course I do. What, Fan Xianggong, don't you want to listen to what I say, were you refuting at that time? Or are you actually afraid of my comments on the New Deal? Su Shi was naturally not afraid of Fan Zhongyan.

This person may be a genius, but also a good writer, quite accomplished in poetry. But that's all, other than that, not to mention that Fan Zhongyan is useless, it's basically the same.

History is not all talented, all are good politicians.

is like Li Bai, Du Fu, etc., these people have all been officials, but in the end it turned out that they are really failures in this regard.

Fan Zhongyan is also not much.

In particular, this new policy is a face project, which has no practical significance for the Great Song Dynasty, but will become one of his means to eliminate dissidents.

That is, he can't make any contribution to the change of the Great Song Dynasty, why does Su Shi want to save him any face?

Such a person, one less, can toss the Great Song Song less, and maybe retain some vitality for it.

He just didn't offend himself before, so Su Shi let it go. But now, even if the two are facing each other, he has no intention of keeping his hand.

Su Shi's rhetorical question, even a little agitated in it, heard Fan Zhongyan's ears, making his face turn red. "Humph! It's just a yellow-mouthed child, what insight can you have. It's just that if you definitely want to make a fool of yourself, what can you do? ”

After speaking, Fan Zhongyan twisted his head, looking too lazy to look at Su Shi.

Fan Zhongyan didn't object, and Su Shi looked at Zhao Zhen who was sitting on the dragon chair.

"Even if you say that there is some research, you might as well talk about it." Zhao Zhenlai asked with interest.

"Yes." Su Shi, who was in a wheelchair, was very respectful, and after holding his fists and agreeing, he began to speak slowly.

The basic policy of the so-called Qingli New Deal is the "selection of talents and talents" and "benevolence and love for the people" that Confucianism has always advocated.

The central content of Qingli's new policy is the ten things proposed by Fan Zhongyan, which specifically include three aspects.

The first is to clarify the rule of officials, including the deposition of the Ming Dynasty, the suppression of luck, the fine tribute, the selection of chiefs, and the public land. These measures were mainly proposed in response to the growing phenomenon of land annexation and redundancy in society at that time.

The second is to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and the specific contents include thickening the peasants, reducing forced labor, and repairing military equipment. This was mainly put forward in response to the phenomenon of poverty and weakness and redundant troops in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The third is to enforce the legal system, which was put forward in response to the situation that the imperial court decrees were changed overnight and the prestige was not high.

In fact, the end result of the first clear deposition is not to look at who is good, but who makes what mistakes.

Do more and make more mistakes, and don't do well.

The official doesn't do anything, and as soon as the tax is collected, he is avoiding making mistakes.

As long as you don't make a mistake, you can be promoted as soon as your qualifications come up. Over time, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty became mediocre officials, lazy officials, and can also be called officials who lie flat.

There is also a third point of Jinggongju, Fan Zhongyan wants to abolish the vague name system, and requires that the real names of candidates be revealed in future examination papers.

Reason?

If you can't see the name, you will lose the original intention of recommending and selecting talents, and who will be the grassroots officials to select talents for the imperial court in the future?

As for cheating?

What does an examiner do? What does the Supervisory Yuan do?

Fan Zhongyan claimed that as long as there are gentlemen like me, are you still afraid of people cheating?

Look, how confident he is, he actually believes that the morality of a gentleman is more reliable than the system.

In short, the New Deal only supplemented and improved the existing problems of the Great Song Dynasty, and many of them did not have a clear set of standards and clear measures.

Although the process has also harmed some people, it has been relatively mild in general. That's why this reform is called the Qingli New Deal, not the Qingli Reform.

Fan Zhongyan still has the ability to write poetry, but when it comes to implementing reforms, forget it. This is just tossing the Great Song Dynasty, compared to the change of "the sky is not enough to fear, the ancestors are not enough to be afraid, and the words of people are not enough to be compassionate" proposed by Wang Anshi thirty years later, it can be said that it is thousands of miles behind.

By the way, at this time, Wang Anshi was still working as a sesame petty official in the south, and his life was still very hard. And in history, he is one of the figures who most despises the Qingli New Deal.

Dripping and purring, Su Shi opened his mouth and said a lot.

Some of them he said directly, some of them in his heart, but not in his mouth.

In short, after Su Shi said this, he expressed a meaning, that is, to devalue the so-called Qingli New Deal.

Su Shi first pointed out the core of the new deal, followed by one refutation, and Fan Zhongyan's face had already changed dramatically.

The matter of the new deal has already been announced. But most of the officials know about it. But as detailed as Su Shi's understanding, few people can do it.

Some people died, but not completely......
