Chapter 568: The Prelude to the Reform (Two updates in one)
"Wang Jiefu has established three departments of regulations and wants to implement new laws. This is our best time!"
Within the Han Mansion.
Zhang Yue spoke to the two brothers Han Jiang and Han Wei.
Brothers Han Jiang and Han Wei looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Han Jiang said: "When Wang Jiefu did not enter the court, it was difficult for the political affairs of the court to be extended. We wanted to do something and it was difficult to change anything. But now that the three regulations and regulations have been established, our ambitions can finally be put into practice."
Han Jiang's words mean that before Wang Anshi returned to the court to serve as a Hanlin scholar, Han Jiang, Wu Chong, and Zhang Yue proposed the exemption law several times, but they were all vetoed by Sima Guang in the gathering of ministers and ministers of the two systems.
Without Wang Anshi, Guan Jia, Han Jiang, Han Wei, Wu Chong, and Zhang Yue combined could not defeat Sima Guang.
Sima Guang is the existence of the full-level BOSS.
But now that Wang Anshi has returned to the court as a political advisor, he has established three departments of regulations. Now the power of the enemy and ourselves has been reversed. For the first time, the power of the reformists has the upper hand compared with the power of the conservatives.
.
Now is the time for Wang Anshi to repay Han Jiang and Han Wei brothers.
"How do you think we should start from here?"
Zhang Yue said: "Of course the first thing is the exemption law!"
Han Jiang and Han Wei nodded. Han Jiang said: "I have discussed the exemption method with Jiefu many times, but Jiefu is always in between. Now I will talk to him again."
Zhang Yue smiled slightly when he heard this.
Han Wei said: "What's wrong with saving it?"
Zhang Yue said: "If Wang Xianggong had advocated it, such a meritorious deed would be entirely his fault, not Han Gong's."
Han Jiang stroked his beard and smiled and said: "If Jiefu can make the exemption method successful, then there is nothing wrong with me helping him because I am a beautiful man."
Zhang Yue thought to himself, just listen to what politicians say, but never take them seriously. If you do, you will be a fool.
Zhang Yue said: "Mr. Han, Mr. Wang uses most of his affairs for his own use. I think there will be many people who will oppose him in the future. It is up to Mr. Han to take charge of the affairs of the court."
Han Jiang also supported the reform, but his political views were relatively mild, which was more in line with Zhang Yue's temperament.
Of course, there is another meaning in Zhang Yue's words. I am following your lead, Han Jiang. If you and Wang Anshi fall out in the future, my father-in-law and I will definitely follow you.
In the history of another time and space, after Chen Shengzhi was dismissed as the errand of the Ordinance Department of the Third Department, Han Jiang joined the Bureau and jointly took charge of the Ordinance Department of the Third Department with Wang Anshi.
It was at this time that the exemption law was actually implemented, but the two had conflicts again.
Wang Anshi's exemption from military service was considered radical and too broad, and was opposed by many officials, including Han Jiang himself. Han Jiang wanted to be relatively moderate and the opposition would not be so great, so the two had different opinions, which led to the introduction of the exemption in history.
The original intentions of Fa and Han Jiang were very different.
Finally, coupled with some other conflicts, Han Jiang felt that she could not work with Wang Anshi and took the initiative to ask for a job.
Now Zhang Yue must make changes. Of course, the Han Jiang brothers were very satisfied with Zhang Yue's statement. Everyone knew that Wu Chong, Zhang Yue and Wang Anshi were in-laws.
Of course, they don't think they will fall out with Wang Anshi now, until...
Zhang Yue 'reluctantly' persuaded Han Jiang, but Han Wei said: "But the three regulations departments are in the hands of Wang Jiefu and it is difficult to do anything."
Zhang Yue said: "We can recommend a few people to the Ordinance Department of the Third Department."
Han Jiang asked: "Do you have anyone to choose for Du Zhi?"
Zhang Yue thought to himself that a big boss like Han Jiang must have his own disciples and would not arrange it himself.
Seeing Zhang Yue's refusal, Han Jiang smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it."
Han Wei suddenly said: "I think it's better to arrange for Cai Yuanchang."
Upon hearing this, Han Jiang clapped her legs and said, "What a great idea."
Zhang Yue thought this was a good idea when he heard it. Cai Jing now embraced Han Jiang and was introduced to the Ordinance Department of the Third Division as a non-Jinshi. This was a matter of great luck.
In this way, Cai Jing can also enter Wang Anshi's eyes.
Of course, the reason why Cai Jing is appreciated is inseparable from his emotional intelligence and ability to do things.
It is no wonder that Cai Jing, who is good at both being a person and doing things, is admired by Han Jiang and Han Wei. Cai Jing climbed up to the two Han Jiang brothers. Not only did Cai Jing not feel that he had a greater backer, he ignored Zhang Yue.
Cai Jing also came to Zhang Yue's house from time to time to perform discipleship rituals on Zhang Yue. On weekdays, he was more like the teacher than the teacher and regarded himself as Zhang Yue's disciple.
I have to say that for people like Cai Jing, it is difficult not to succeed.
Even if you don't have a serious Jinshi background, you can still get ahead.
This was beyond Zhang Yue's expectation. He saw that Cai Jing did not take the Jinshi examination due to his own deception, but his official career went smoother than in history.
In the history of another time and space, Cai Jing only passed the Jinshi exam in the third year of Xining. He served as a local official for several years, and it was not until he returned to the capital that he rose to prominence.
Of course, what makes Zhang Yue even more distressed is that Cai Jing says that he is his student everywhere, so the teacher-student relationship between the two is so difficult to hide even if he wants to. What if he is exposed as the traitor's younger brother and the traitor's teacher at the same time?
It is also a very shameful thing to go down in history.
Han Wei said: "But once Yuan Chang leaves, who will be responsible for handling the interrogation office? Yuan Chang cannot be separated from the interrogation office."
Han Wei was also inseparable from Cai Jing. Cai Jing did a lot of things for the Han brothers during his tenure as prisoner.
Han Jiang thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter, those who can do more work, let Yuan Chang do both."
After Zhang Yue was dismissed from the post of Jiaoyinjian, the Han Jiang brothers regarded Jiaoyinjian as their own territory. This was also a great gift from Zhang Yue to the Han family.
Zhang Yue added: "In addition to the exemption law, the square field equalization tax law advocated by Ouyang Gong can also be implemented..."
The rich hide their land and pass it on to the common people. The Fangtian Equalization Tax Law is to re-measure the land, put an end to the cheating and cheating of the right-wingers, and give fairness to the common people.
At that time, Ouyang was proposing a tax law for equalizing land and land. As a result, Hebei heroes led thousands of people to Bianjing to besiege Kaifeng Mansion. Zhang Yue was so angry that he wrote about this when he was taking the provincial examination.
But this matter was indeed a matter of "public outrage" and offended the interests of powerful rightists. No official in the court dared to speak out. The only one who said a few words, Ouyang Xiu, was knocked down. Yes, Ouyang Xiu is famous for his poor popularity in the court.
But he did not let down Fan Wenzhenggong.
Now Zhang Yue brings it forward...
Han Jiang and Han Wei both had concerns about this and said they would take a look before talking about it. Zhang Yue also sighed secretly...
"...At the same time, the matter of handing over the prison to get involved in the quality warehouse can also be carried out."
Brother Han Jiang has no objection at all to this.
Zhang Yue also took advantage of Wang Anshi's reform to promote many things he wanted to do.
Anyway, with you, Wang Anshi, supporting us head-on, the pressure on us to handle our own affairs will be much less.
One day in March, officials inspected Tianzhang Pavilion at Han Jiangzhi's request to see the portrait of Emperor Zhenzong and the classics in the pavilion.
Chen Shengzhi and Han Jiang, two ministers from the Privy Council, accompanied the officials. Zhang Yue and Hu Ding, who were on duty, also accompanied the officials.
The official browsed the ancient books in the pavilion and asked Zhang Yue: "Have all the memorials of Emperor Zhenzong been sorted out?"
Zhang Yue said: "Your Majesty, I and Hu Ding have collected and sorted them out every day. Now I have sorted out the memorials and official letters from three big rooms."
In fact, Hu Ding was in charge of this matter, and Zhang Yue spent most of his time drinking tea and sleeping in Tianzhang Pavilion.
The official was very satisfied with the spotless bookshelf and the neat entries in the memorials revised by Emperor Zhenzong in the past, so he asked Zhang Yue: "So, did Zhang Qing gain anything from it?"
When the official asked this, Zhang Yue immediately ordered Hu Ding to take out a memorial without saying anything.
The memorial is very old, and the cover is a little fluffy.
Hu Ding placed the memorial on yellow silk and opened it himself for the officials to browse.
At first, the officials didn't pay much attention to it. It was a corruption case involving treasury officials. Zhang Yue pointed out: "Your Majesty, please take a look at this!"
The official followed what Zhang Yue's hand was pointing, and after taking a closer look, his expression suddenly changed: "This commoner from another state walked thousands of miles to Bianjing just to lose seven coins?"
Zhang Yue said: "It is indeed true. It was found that this common man was unwilling to pay bribes to please state and county officials, so he even walked thousands of miles to Bianjing in order to give him seven coins."
"After arriving in Bianjing, this person still had no idea. The treasury officials tried every possible means to extort money from him, but the person also stubbornly refused to pay bribes. Therefore, the treasury officials deliberately refused to do anything, so that while the person was looking for work, he went to the Yamen every day to wait for approval.
, and after waiting for three full years, this person happened to meet an official who was willing to advocate for him, so he paid the seven coins at the Yamen and returned home."
"I have made a rough calculation. Even if this person lives in Bianjing and sleeps on the street, he will need one guan for one month and thirty-six guan for three years. Plus the traveling expenses, in order to pay the imperial court this measly seven qian,
It took dozens of strings."
"After this man returned to his hometown, there was no news for a long time. His family thought he was dead. Both his parents died in anger. The squire took the opportunity to sell off his land and forced his wife to remarry. For only seven coins, this man spent three years
After traveling thousands of miles, our family was destroyed and everyone was destroyed. Your Majesty, this is the Battle of Yaqian!"
When the officials heard this, they were speechless and extremely angry. All the officials beside them lowered their heads and dared not speak.
Zhang Yue inadvertently revealed the truth to the officials. This was not the peaceful and prosperous age that the officials below said.
Yes, these people live a good life, but the vast majority of people are not regarded as human beings.
Their sufferings were not heard by the officials.
Officials should really read Water Margin, why the heroes are always "going out to kill the generals", why the common people are so violent, and what is meant by "going to the mountains".
The official looked at this memorial and finally said: "This Yaqian campaign is really a way to harm the people! I will definitely abolish it!"
Han Jiang reported: "Your Majesty, the state and county cadres are very heavy, and the work and rest are uneven. Today, the officials in the court like to be called redundant, and regard it as an unurgent task, allowing them to take away the farming time and harm their wealth."
"It would be very popular if it could be reformed. However, I believe that the law in front of the Yamen has long been harmful. It will not freeze three feet in a day. If you want to reconsider this law, you must be cautious."
The official asked: "What does Han Qing think we should do?"
Han Jiang said: "I still say that the new law must be in line with the opinions of the world. Your Majesty can issue an edict to let the internal and external officials who know that the service law can be reduced, actually seal the matter and state the matter, and then set up the third department of regulations to discuss the establishment of the service.
Law!"
To seal the memorial is to seal the memorial so that no one else can see it until it reaches the emperor's desk.
The officials agreed very much with Han Jiang's suggestion. He knew that Han Jiang, Wu Chong, and Zhang Yue had proposed the exemption law.
But how to change the yamen service? Whether it should be changed in accordance with the exemption law, the officials are not sure. Han Jiang's suggestion is to brainstorm ideas. The change is necessary, but the suggestions of the officials below should be listened to.
It's up to you to make up your own mind.
Zhang Yue thought that Han Jiang's problem was that he was too cautious. He was determined to change the law, but he took it one step at a time. If Wang Anshi had obtained the official position, he would have already picked up the gun and mounted the horse to do it. But people just
This is a pity for seeking perfection.
The officials were also very obedient. He was very angry in his heart and wanted to change his military service immediately. However, he still nodded and said, "Just follow what Han Qing said."
However, the moment Zhang Yue saw the official's agreement, Han Jiang showed joy and suppressed her joyful emotions.
Zhang Yue thought of what Han Jiang had said to him, "If he is lucky enough to be in power, he must do it."
Things finally took a difficult step forward!
…
Due to the government's decision to issue an edict to all officials to discuss the disadvantages of the military service law, officials immediately encountered opposition.
In the Yanhe Hall, Zhaowen Prime Minister Fu Bi dragged his legs that were unable to move slowly into the hall.
Before coming to Yanhe Hall, Fu Bi was recuperating at home. Ministers such as Sima Guang, Tang Jie, Zhao Wei, Lu Jie and others came to consult with Fu Bi one after another.
Everyone expressed serious concerns about the unprecedented appointment of Wang Anshi by the officials to establish three departments of regulations to discuss new laws and their eagerness to seek governance. They believed that this move would harm the foundation of the Song Dynasty.
After Fu Bi listened to everyone's discussion, he said that he had already felt something was wrong, but he had been complaining because of his foot illness and could not see the officials for details.
Fu Bi would always use this excuse to send them back.
Fu Bi knew what Wang Anshi was going to do.
However, when the officials wanted to appoint Wang Anshi as a political advisor, they sent someone to ask Fu Bi for his opinion, but Fu Bi expressed his approval.
Later, Fan Zhongyan's son Fan Chunren criticized Fu Bi tactfully, saying that he had been ill for a long time and had neglected the government affairs.
Fan Chunren's implication is: Why don't you care about Fu Bi?
Fu Bi found out later that Fan Chunren was no less loyal and upright than his father, but he was far behind his father in politics.
Another day someone sent me a poem.
This poem was written by Su Shi, and its title is "The Waves of the Dragon".
There are several sentences in the poem such as "I am full of thunder but I don't spit it out", "The red dragon and the white tiger fight tomorrow, sometimes they have to be angry".
This poem made Fu Bi frown.
Fu Bi asked Su Shi why he wrote this poem. It turned out that after Fan Chunren went to court that day, Su Shi, who had been sued by the judge, went out to drink with several colleagues and talked about Wang Anshi's affairs in Zhongshu. Fu Bi claimed that he was ill and could not come out.
All the officials felt that Fu Bi's current indifference gave Wang Anshi a chance to show his talents.
Su Shi felt a little emotional, so he wrote this poem when he was drunk, and then it was spread by people with ulterior motives, and finally it was sent to Fu Bi.
The meaning of this poem is very clear, that is, Fu Bi, why are you so cowardly? Looking at Wang Anshi jumping in front of you, why don't you compete with Wang Anshi? Let him know who is Zhaowen Xianggong, the top civil servant today
.
Fu Bi thought to himself, what a famous literary figure Su Shi was, his poems must have been circulated everywhere, and this poem itself had lost its reputation.
But now it is the officials who use Wang Anshi to carry out the reform, and it is not Wang Anshi who deceives the officials to carry out the reform. What is the use of Fu Bi and Wang Anshi fighting back and forth?
The most important official family.
However, the officials are still young and vigorous, and they have no idea about the trajectory of the way of heaven and the intertwined interests behind each seemingly flawless political matter.
Fu Bi originally wanted to find an opportunity to let Wang Anshi do the work first. After there were mistakes in the new law, he would take the initiative to persuade the officials to advise him that the new law should not be passed hastily and must be considered in the long run.
When Fu Bi and Han Qi followed Fan Zhongyan's reforms, didn't Zhang Dexiang do the same?
What if others say that Fu Bi and Han Qi are brave enough to do anything? Zhang Dexiang said that these two people like to jump around like children. When he hits the wall one day, he will know that he is wrong. Now when they are making trouble,
You won't listen if you tell me.
Now that Fu Bi has gone through the years, experienced the ups and downs of the Qingli New Deal, and is now prime minister, he has long been convinced that the affairs of the world cannot be changed easily.
Thinking of the fight with Lu Yijian and Zhang Dexiang, I felt relieved.
Fan Wenzhenggong and Lu Yijian fought so fiercely, didn't they reconcile in the end?
However, Fan Chunren still believes that Lu Yijian is a big thief and his father has not reconciled with him.
But Fu Bi was so provoked by Su Shi and Fan Chunren today that he had to leave.
Fu Bi came to the palace on crutches, and the officials immediately offered him a seat to talk with Fu Bi.
Fu Bi said to the official: "Your Majesty, do you still remember what I said last year in the small hall at the east gate?"
Fu Bi was not only the elder of the three dynasties, but also the prime minister of the three dynasties. The most important thing was that Empress Dowager Cao had great trust in Fu Bi. Therefore, the officials were as respectful to Fu Bi as primary school students to their teachers.
The official replied respectfully: "I remember what you said. You asked me not to talk about military matters for twenty years."
Fu Bi pressed his cane with both hands and said to the officials: "Yes, I remember that your majesty listened to my words at that time and told your ministers that it was useful for Emperor Hanwen to use it sparingly, but now why has your majesty forgotten what I said at the beginning?
?Is there a treacherous minister who has made suggestions?"
The traitor in Fu Bi's words is Wang Anshi.
Today Fu Bi regards Wang Anshi just as Lu Yijian and Zhang Dexiang regarded him and Fan Zhongyan.
Fu Bi's words were no longer remonstrating like a minister, but had a first-class non-negotiable tone.
He now wants to tell the officials that what you did was wrong.
Fu Bi said: "Someone came to the official's house some time ago and said that the earthquake in Heshuo, the earthquake in the capital, and the disasters in the world are all caused by the weather and not by human affairs. These are treasonous and unethical remarks. As a ruler, the only person you fear is heaven.
, if you are not even afraid of the sky, then there is nothing you dare to do! This must be a traitorous minister’s advice to your majesty, so that the auxiliary ministers and admonishers will not dare to advise your majesty with words from now on! If your majesty accepts his words, from now on
The world is about to be in chaos!"
Fu Bi spoke responsibly, and the officials, taking advantage of Fu Bi's power as prime minister in the past three dynasties, also obeyed the instructions obediently.
Everyone knows that Wang Anshi said this to the officials. Fu Bi criticized Wang Anshi as a traitor without naming him!
Fu Bi told the truth, the truth about Dong Zhongshu's theory of telepathy between heaven and man.
The use of celestial phenomena from ancient times to the present actually gives admonishers an opportunity to criticize the emperor with the help of celestial changes. This is not my criticism of the officials. As a minister, how can I say anything wrong with your emperor? But the officials cannot ignore God’s warning.
