All the brothers know that Song Jiang is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, but most of the people gather to discuss martial arts, and then they talk about some major events in the world, anecdotes about rivers and lakes, and trivial matters in the neighborhood are also discussed. Like today's situation, even Song Jiang is not very good, but the words sung by my aunt and grandmother were written back then, and everyone knew it at first glance, and they all sat upright and listened carefully.

Song Jiang groaned, paused slightly, and said: "Our master aunt ancestor has outstanding appearance, all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and Su Xiaomei, the sister of Su Shi, was a talented woman in the world.

"Our great-grandfather's name is Ruan Yi, and the next is the ancestor Ruan Xing, although the master aunt and ancestor don't know their names in the world, in fact, their names are gone, and the name of the master's family is really from 'Yixing and Fei', but 'Xing' and 'Juan' are brothers and sisters, but they are not two generations. Back then, Master Zhou Dong's jokes with his master had their own origins.

"My aunt and ancestor have been very smart since childhood, and they have good looks, and when they grow up, people who seek to marry are eager to marry them. Shiguzu's eyes were above the top, and he didn't look at anyone in his eyes. Back then, Cai Jing once asked Wang Jinggong to ask for marriage on his behalf, and I don't know when his aunt and ancestor saw Cai Jing, and they disliked him for being slippery and looking like a traitor. Shi Great-Ancestor regarded it as the pearl in his palm, and naturally he was obedient and rejected Cai Jing in one bite.

At that time, Zhang Dian was friendly with his master and often corresponded with each other, so Zhang Dian often went in and out of the Ruan family, and his aunt and ancestor fell in love with him when they met him by chance. Zhang Dian has a bold personality, straightforwardness, handsome appearance, elegant and free manners, outstanding intelligence, extensive and profound knowledge, good writing and writing, and is highly valued by the world. This person likes to cultivate, and when he was young, he asked the ancestor for advice to convince Qi Bigu, and the ancestor did not do it himself, but taught him everything, and he had a fairy wind and bones.

"Zhang Dian was shocked by the clansmen since he was a child, and he was proud to grow up, Jiayou two years of Jinshi and the first, his nephew Zhang Heng won the top prize, Zhang Dian was ashamed of Zhang Heng, refused to accept the edict, threw away the edict and went home, which shows that this person is by no means a fly camp dog. It's just that at that time, Zhang Dian already had a wife, and he was more than ten years older, so his aunt and ancestor didn't care about it and married him wholeheartedly. When the great-ancestor learned about it, he was extremely angry and resolutely refused to allow it. Later, Zhang Dian sent an envoy to Liao, and the master and ancestor finally followed him privately, which made the master great-ancestor embarrassed and angry, and resigned and returned to his hometown. Shi Gu Zu went to Liao with Zhang Dan, and in order to find out the truth of Liao State, Zhang Duan actually left Shi Gu Zu there to help investigate the enemy situation in detail. Later, Zhang Dian conquered the Western Xia again, the Song army won three battles and three victories, the Song Xia peace talks, and the Western Xia was a minister to the Song Dynasty.

"Shiguzu and Zhang Dian also have descendants who are still stranded at the intersection of Western Xia and Liao in the northwest, and they still correspond with the Privy Council and the dignitaries of the Imperial City Division, contributing to the country. This matter involves the secrets of the Great Song Dynasty espionage, if it is said that if it is said, all of us should die, not only will it harm the lives of the descendants of the ancestors, but also damage the national affairs. Song Jiang said and looked around, and everyone in the family nodded yes

Song Jiang continued: "My aunt's grandmother and son have suffered a lot, but they have no regrets, and this is not because Zhang Dian doesn't love my aunt and grandmother. Zhang Dian has been alone for seven years, and has never used his power as prime minister to give official titles, but no one has any of his sons and nephews to get an official and a half position. Today's Daojun Emperor even though he knew that Zhang Dian prevented him from ascending the throne, but he did not dislike him, and has always praised his loyalty and selflessness. Although Zhang Dian died in the depreciation, the Daojun Emperor still reverted to his special advancement, Shen Guogong, and then re-gifted the Guanwen Temple scholars, Taishi, posthumously awarded the title of Wei Guogong, praised it as 'Bi Liang III, persuade a hundred for, praise the heavenly work, and the lower to determine the country', the evaluation is very high. ”

Although Chao Gai and Brother Song Jiang are both disciples of Ruan, it is Ruan Xiaoer's name that brings the wonder of becoming attached to Master Ruan Fei, and it also has the same surname as Master, so it has always seemed that Ruan Xiaoer is the closest to Master, and Ruan Xiaoer's Xiaowu Xiaoqi is as straight as if he was born in the door. Song Jiang talked about Ruan Yinu and Zhang Dan, Xiao Er felt that Ruan Yan was sacred at first glance, Zhang Dan was old, and he had a wife, and he came to provoke his aunt and ancestor again, he was very angry, and he felt pain and pity for his aunt and grandmother, and couldn't help but hate and said: "Zhang Dian is such a big person, but he is not as good as a pig and a dog, and the traitor is really a traitor!" ”

Song Jiang smiled bitterly: "This matter was originally caused by my aunt and ancestor, and her old man also worked a lot of effort, and Zhang Dian was naturally unwilling, so she was just ashamed at first." This is the matter of the elders, and many years have passed, and Zhang Dian has passed away. The master and ancestor are satisfied, and they are determined to the ground, Zhang Dian is naturally our proud uncle, although the master and great-grandfather have never allowed it, it is also a thing of the past.

"Today I specifically said it, but I didn't add him or not, I just wanted to say that Zhang Dian once pushed the new law again, and it was the most effective, and the Great Song Dynasty was able to make the country rich and strong. Then conquered Western Xia, conquered Tubo, opened up the southwest, consolidated border defense, improved ordnance, and finally incorporated the land of more than 40 prefectures and counties in Hunan, Hubei, Western Xia, and Tubo into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. If we insult outside, it is not only disrespectful to the master, but also the right and wrong, and the injustice and injustice in the world. ”

Xiao Er's mind is simple, he knows the near and far, and when he was shocked to learn that Zhang Dian was his aunt and grandfather, he no longer held a grudge, but after listening to Brother Song Jiang praise him as a hero, he immediately felt close and abnormal.

Zhu Tong shook his head lightly and said: "He has three great faults, one wants to whip the corpse Sima Xiangye, and the other wants to demote Su Dongpo to the land of Lingnan miasma, and the other wants to execute all the Yuanyou people who are relegated to Lingnan, these three things are quite criticized by the world. In many other things, such as the Xia army's capture of Jinyuezhai, and the commander Zhang Xing's attempt to kill 4,000 people after his death, etc., all showed that the murderous spirit was too heavy. ”

Song Jiang sighed and said: "Lord Zhang Dian and Master Sima Guang are persistent in state affairs, Zhang Dian is bold and resolute, and Sima Guang is rigorous and thorough, and they are all indispensable talents in the world. The two are so troublesome that they can't get along, which is really regrettable. ”

Lu Junyi was embarrassed and said: "Sima Xiangye died, the world mourned, everyone hung on him, our aunt and grandfather actually wanted to open the grave and whip the corpse, if it wasn't for Emperor Shaosheng to stop it, he would have really done it." His good reputation is only afraid that it will not be maintained. ”

Song Jiang slowly stood up, frowned, and said, "Zhang Dian wants to whip Sima Guang's corpse, it is indeed an insult to the world and provoke the anger of the ghosts and gods. Slowly walked up to Ruan Xiaowu, who was concentrating on carving the child model with his head down. The child model was originally a children's clay art that originated in the Tang and Song dynasties, and it became more popular because of the printing technology since the Song Dynasty, and adults are often enthusiastic about it.

Song Jiang lifted the tip of his toe to Xiao Wu's elbow, and his palm was like a knife, everything at Xiao Wu's wrist, Xiao Wu couldn't catch it off guard, and the child model slipped from his hand. Song Jiang's toes had already fallen, and he picked up the child model, and his hanging hand was already in his hand. Xiao Wu looked up at Song Jiang Yile, and said in his heart that Brother Song Jiang was so interested, but he was joking with me.

Song Jiang suddenly raised his hand and threw the little two semi-dry clay child molds to the ground. Xiao Er's face turned red, he stood up and said hurriedly: "Brother Yu, why did you fall my child model?" "The little five children's models are carefully selected from the mud, and they are carefully cared for during the production, once they are dropped, they are like their hearts and livers being pulled.

If it weren't for Song Jiang or Chao Gai today, if it were someone else, Xiao Wu would have a seizure immediately, even if it was Song Jiang today, Xiao Wu was still looking straight at it, full of puzzlement, and he must have understood.

Song Jiang grabbed his hand and said loudly: "All the brothers know that Xiao Wu and I are good, but suddenly he broke his most beloved thing for no reason, no wonder people are nameless and angry." In addition to me and Brother Chao, there is a third person here, Xiao Wu may have to fight. Farther away, if it weren't for our own brothers, we might have the heart to kill. ”

After Song Jiang finished speaking, he let go of Xiao Wu's hand and said: "Although Lord Sima said that his conduct is fine, he is stubborn to the end, and he is the hardest working to block the new law, not only saying that the new law is useless, but also that there is no room for negotiation when it is abolished. Later, he wanted to whip Sima Xiangye's corpse, but he was also angry and out of order. That Sima Guang is diligent and incorruptible, and his name is important, and Emperor Zhezong tried to stop him. This matter is the most disputed in the country, and there are many people in the world who are not angry, and today Song Jiang said through the little five children, hoping to calm the doubts and grievances in the hearts of the brothers. It's a pity that the little five brothers are children! ”

Xiao Wu laughed and said, "Woo": "My child model-". But all the brothers laughed, and said in their hearts: "It turns out that the ministers of all families are fighting to die and live, and it is also for the best thing in their hearts. I saw Song Jiang take out a black and dark red child model from his pocket, the snake swallowing the frog yang carved pattern, the veins are as clear as ancient vine knots, lifelike, and handed it to Xiao Wu: "Brother compensates you for the best child model." Xiao Wu took it happily, but said in his mouth: "If you fall one, you should pay for it, otherwise your heart will hurt to death, but where can you make up for it?" ”

Song Jiang arched his hand to Chao Gai again: "Brother Chao Gai, just now you said that Wang Anshi is a traitor, it should be a big misunderstanding. I've heard a lot about the new law, so let's hear about it? ”

Chao Gai smiled and gestured: "Brother Song Jiang is an errand boy in the Yamen, and he has seen a lot of things, and the brothers have a lot of doubts about the new law, so please talk about it more." ”

Song Jiang cleared his throat and said loudly: "Regardless of whether Wang Jinggong succeeds in changing the new law or not, he is the opposite of Sima Cheng to the new law, as a person, an official, and a person, loyal and selfless, and it should not be different whether he supports the new law or not. The implementation of the new law in the Song Dynasty was not because of Wang Anshi, but because of Fan Zhongyan's new policy. The new law is to the politics of the world, like water to fish, and food to the people, and it is impossible to leave, otherwise there will not be Fan Wenzhenggong in front of him, and Wang Anshi, Zhang Dan, and Cai Jing will go forward and succeed, and there will be more Shenzong and Zhezong Emperors who have supported it, and the current Daojun Emperor is also keen on this, and he has forced Zhang Dian to preside over the new law, but Zhang Dian does not like the Daojun Emperor, and insists on resigning, and has to use Cai Jing. ”
