At the same time, Lu Gong held the mansion.

The spread newspaper was placed on the table, and the old man who was standing looked at the words on the paper, his eyes were full of horror, and suddenly he sat down heavily.

"Xizhe, you're right. ”

"Father, I'm a soft-eared person, and I feel justified in any knowledge, but last time I just had a premonition. Lu Xizhe smiled bitterly.

Lu Gong smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "I'm old, after all, my vision is not as sharp as that of young people, these four letters from Sima Junshi and Wang Jiefu, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but ......"

"Father. On the side, Lu Xichun was not convinced, "Why bother to grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige, the articles selected by Qin Xianao and others seem reasonable, but the four letters of Sima Xianggong and Wang Xianggong don't seem reasonable?"

Lu Gongzhu shook his head: "If you lose, you lose, there is no need to force your resignation, otherwise you will become Wang Jiefu, you will win on your lips, but you will lose on your lips, and in the end you will lose even on your lips." ”

"But ......" Lu Xichun was very unconvinced, this time he published a lot of remarks in the newspaper that criticized "The Theory of Tools" and "The Art of Refuting Arguments", and as soon as this article came out, anyone with a heart would know that what Lu Xichun said in the last newspaper was not credible.

"Don't worry, Qin Xianao just won for a while, which of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty was not extremely smart when he was young, and he was a person who was a good reader, and he saw things very well when he was young, and a three-year-old child could collapse an eighty-year-old man, but once they also came to the forefront, they really entered the chaos of governance and government, and it was no different from us, or even worse. ”

"That's right, standing and talking doesn't hurt your back. "Lu Xichun is also familiar with history, and many people in history who were extremely powerful and famous in the civil field often behaved unsightly when they actually went to the court.

Lu Xizhe frowned: "Having said that, I always feel that this Qin Xianao is different from other people in history. ”

"It's different on the outside. The essence is not much different. Lu Gong smiled and sighed, "We don't have to think about it, this article will beat Sima Junshi and Wang Jiefu respectively, and the biggest headache is probably Sima Junshi and Wang Jiefu." ”

......

Cheng Yi, Lu Gong, Wen Yanbo, Han Zhongyan...... One by one, it was determined that the four letters could be passed down through the ages, and in fact, these four letters were indeed famous through the ages in real history, and even in modern society, they were praised and praised by experts to the sky, and they didn't even think there were any big loopholes.

However, at this time, the articles in the newspaper clearly revealed that there was something wrong.

The smarter a person is, the more confident they are.

Moreover, the ancient Chinese literati were especially noble and arrogant. They are even confident enough to understand from a difficult angle, so when they see that things are not going in the direction they want, although they are a little touched, they don't completely think that they are wrong, but they just look at the problem from different angles.

"Qin Xianao didn't grasp the right point at all, and he was entangled in some details about right and wrong, he was simply going the wrong way. ”

The newspaper article itself does not make sense, others say that what is done is right or not, but he grabs the buttons of his clothes and does not button them to stir up trouble. Regardless of priority, such an article can also win an award? It can be seen that the three editors-in-chief have a dark heart and another conspiracy. ”

"Sima Junshi and Wang Jiefu are absolutely right, the wrong one must be the newspaper article, but this person is good at sophistry, and we can't find a way to sophistry for a while. ”

......

Bianliang Prime Minister's Mansion.

The old servant rushed towards Sima Guang with the newly arrived newspaper.

"Those ignorant people outside all say that there is a problem with Xiang Ye's letter, I don't know if this is true or not, Xiang Ye's talent is something that Qin Xianao, a hairy guy, can comment on at will. The old servant sneered in his heart.

Soon the old servant handed over the newspaper.

Sima Guang didn't care and took a sip of tea first. Only then did I slowly open the newspaper, and with a sweep of my eyes, I saw the article on the front page. "This Qin Xianao doesn't know what surprise to me this time. Sima Guang smiled slightly. Look down at a leisurely pace.

"Before analyzing these four letters, we must first clarify the background of Sima Guang's letter to Wang Anshi......"

This is the opening sentence, Sima Guang nodded secretly.

No matter what article is told, it must be told in the context of the whole context, otherwise it will be taken out of context, which this article seems to have noticed.

"But that's right. If Qin Xianao hadn't even ignored this, he wouldn't have such a great reputation. Sima Guang smiled and continued to look down.

"My Great Song Dynasty founded the country in troubled times, and Taizu set many national policies for the disadvantages of the times, and these national policies were good policies at that time, but the times changed. The environment is changing, and the good policies of the past tend to accumulate all kinds of drawbacks today. ”

"There are three redundancies and two accumulations......

"After the founding of the Song Dynasty, in order to prevent local secession, the administrative power was collected, and the wealth was ......"

"As a result, officials are greedy for power, and the bureaucracy is large and bloated, which is redundant. ”

......

The article expounds the shortcomings accumulated by the Great Song Dynasty one by one.

"Good!"

Sima Guang praised again, the current political malpractices, they, the court officials, know very clearly, but in the rivers and lakes, they can't get the information and data of the court, although they can sense that something is wrong everywhere, but they can't see it so clearly and clearly, and say it so thoroughly.

"This person is also a talent. Sima Guangxin nodded slightly, only to see that he continued to write.

"All kinds of drawbacks in this, people of insight in the world certainly see it......"

"And although the people of Li only have their eyes fixed on their own one-third of an acre of land, they can feel the deterioration of their situation even if they have finished their eggs under ......the nest, and the world is only difficult."

"Then Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu...... Although he tried his best to support it and tried his best to change the law, he had little effect. ......”

"The failure of the Qingli New Deal has repeatedly deteriorated, but although the disadvantages are clear, the development of the Great Song Dynasty to the present, all kinds of contradictions are unclear, like a mess ......"

"Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu are so gods and men who are also tied to them, let alone others. ......”

"There are crises inside and outside the court, and the voice of calling for change has been rising again and again. ”

"In the third year of Jiayou, there was a person who went to Beijing to report on his work and wrote "Emperor Shangrenzong's Words and Affairs", which put forward a series of proposals for changing the law and shook the court, and this person was Wang Anshi. ”

......

The appearance of Wang Anshi, and then the various historical backgrounds, and events are vividly and interestingly narrated in the article. It was also clearly organized, and the more Sima Guang looked at it, the more he nodded.

"However, changing the law is not a family wine, it is not a dinner party. ”

Since Sima Xianggong's letter was a free talk about the various drawbacks of the new law, although he was gentle and elegant, gentle and frugal, it was just a polite conversation between literati friends. The real theme is ......"

Seeing this Sima Guang's spirit, he was shocked, indeed, he wrote to Wang Anshi not to talk about family life, but to target Wang Anshi's mistake in changing the law.

"This actually refers to Wang Anshi's mistake in 'being too attentive and too confident'......"

"In the category of invading officials, what Sima Xianggong really talks about is ......"

"'The sage of the ministers since ancient times, there is no fault ......' these words are aimed at Wang Anshi......"

......

The next thing is to analyze the true meaning of each sentence in Sima Guang's letter one by one, and Sima Guang couldn't help but widen his eyes, although he had such a meaning when he wrote. But a feeling in the subconscious mind is now completely present on the paper.

"Qin Xianao's essay is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

Sima Guang's face flushed red and he continued to look down.

"Now that we understand the theme and know the real debate of Sima Xianggong, let's take a look at Wang Xianggong's reply......"

"We all know that Sima Xianggong has been said three times and twice, thousands of words, and Wang Xianggong choked Sima Xianggong with nothing to say with only 400 words, why is this so?"

"We don't have to pay attention to the polite words in this "Reply to Sima's Advice". And the content of the text ......"

......

This is followed by an analysis of the true meaning of Wang Anshi's letter, which is clearly written here. It is irrefutable, the more Sima Guang looks, the stronger the smile in his eyes, although the article does not directly criticize Wang Anshi's reply at this time, but the discerning person understands who is right and who is wrong after reading the analysis of the true meaning of the two letters in the article.

"This trick is to confuse arguments in the books of Ruyue and Miaoyu......"

"The argument is wrong, the concept is wrong, even if the latter words are correct and reasonable. According to the Theory of Tools, it is also an invalid debate......"

"But even if we discard what we have said above, is there really no problem with the reasoning in the invalid debate that follows?......

"Wang Xianggong is here to say, 'Evil doctrines are difficult to dispel people'. Accusing Sima Xianggong of being a Renren, what is a Renren......"

"Secondly, paradox, Wang Xianggong said here that 'the government of the first king, to promote the good and eliminate the disadvantages', the change of the law is to change the ancestral system, why do you use the reason of 'the government of the first king' as the reason ......"

......

Sima Guang's eyes are getting higher and higher, he repeatedly wrote letters to persuade Wang Anshi, Wang Anshi refuted him with a letter of "Reply to Sima's Advice", and he almost vomited blood, how could Sima Guang have no opinion in his heart.

"I didn't argue back then, it was useless to argue, all the things written in this article, your Wang Jiefu's way of sophistry, didn't I Sima Guang see it?"

Sima Guang shook his head in his heart, he saw that Wang Anshi was no longer reasonable, so Sima Guang felt unstoppable, so he lived in seclusion in Luoyang Diyao to concentrate on writing "Zizhi Tongjian", and simply came out of sight.

However, Wang Jiefu is indeed unparalleled in his eloquence. ”

There is another reason why Sima Guang is helpless, that is, he knows that if these four letters are displayed in public, whether it is Cheng Yi, Wen Yanbo, or Han Zhongyan...... is still a wise and resourceful man in later generations, and the great Confucians of Hongxue will think that Wang Anshi has defeated Sima Guang, and he will definitely approve of Wang Anshi's letter, and the facts of later generations are probably the same.

"Wang Jiefu argues that I have less than 400 words, and I Sima Guang has 4,000 words......"

"With this article, I, Sima Guang, have finally been wronged!"

......

Sima Guang continued to look down.

"But why is this so? I carefully read the deeds of Wang Xianggong's life, and found that Wang Xianggong has always been a righteous man and an honest gentleman, and he is not unreasonable, and oppresses people with crooked reasoning, sophistry, and heresy......

"Such an honest gentleman, in his association with such a good friend as Sima Xianggong, but replied to his friend's kind persuasion with sophistry, the matter is too incredible, right?"

"All kinds of analysis, Wang Xianggong wrote "Answer to Sima's Advice" and his heart was not sophistry......"

"There is only one possibility, Sima Xianggong's "Book with Wang Jiefu" made a mistake......"

......

Sima Guang's face was difficult to look at. (To be continued......)
