The meeting room after the officials left perfectly interpreted the meaning of looking at each other in disbelief.
Han Qi was glad that he held it in this time.
Fu Bi seemed to feel a little more at ease, and the official family did not disappoint him after all.
Han Jiang and Lu Gongbi had the same expressions as they should.
As for Zhang Fangping and Chen Shengzhi, who started the discussion, it seems that they have nothing to do with it, as the officials said.
After many years in court, I have long developed a thick-skinned face.
As for Wang Anshi, he never spoke a word from beginning to end, and his face was so dark that no expression could be seen at all.
Wang Gui was considering whether he could write a good article based on the performance of the official family... In "Shi Lun", he had the most articles singing praises.
From praising officials, to praising the dynasty system, to praising the changes of the Song Dynasty, there is everything you need.
But one thing is the same. At this time, no one is in the mood to continue to discuss matters...
Alas... the officials are becoming more and more frank. This also shows that the officials have more and more complete control over the country.
…
Wang Shao is preparing to go to Beijing.
Although the official's frankness disrupted the cabinet's discussions on the official's temperament, it also completely shamed the cabinet ministers.
However, Wang Anshi still told Wang Shao the detailed process in a letter.
Wang Shao was recommended by himself and could be regarded as someone in his own line.
However, Wang Anshi now treats Wang Shao as an equal.
He explained the process in detail, from the discussions of cabinet ministers to the final official statement, without missing a single detail. Wang Anshi asked Wang Shao to think about it himself.
Wang Anshi's letter even arrived earlier than the official edict.
This is not to say that the private express delivery is faster than the official one, but only two days after the meeting, the cabinet drafted the edict and asked for the official seal.
Wang Shao had no doubts about the official family. Really, no doubts at all.
His own loyalty is one thing, but the most important thing is that only with such an official family can his ambition be realized.
Wang Shao knew the trust the officials had in him. He really had the idea that he would never repay his kindness even if he died.
What Han Zihua said was right, the officials did treat him like an old official, or even worse.
It is not that he has not received the reward. As the court's favor is getting less and less, his son Wang Hou is about to go on duty.
Among the generals, he has almost caught up with Cao Lin, Gao Jingxian and others.
Wang Shao was not affected by Wang Anshi's letter. He decided to truthfully report his duties and his own thoughts when he met with officials.
When Wang Shao returns to Beijing this time, he plans to take his son and his whole family to Beijing.
This decision, how should I put it, is still based on the idea of leaving a proton.
It can be regarded as a statement of your own!
Even in Hehuang, reaching Bianliang is no longer as time-consuming as it was in the early years. In recent years, Gongfang City has intermittently laid tracks in the Hehuang area, connecting it to Qinzhou to a certain extent.
Because there were not many gentry and no gentry in Hehuang area, and there were high mountains and ravines everywhere, the tracks were laid intermittently.
All of them are tracks invested and laid by the imperial court, and are basically for military and public use.
Therefore, we didn’t dig into the mountains and cut rocks, and we didn’t completely connect it. But it can be regarded as connecting all the strategic locations in the Hehuang area.
From the time the imperial edict was issued to Wang Shao's arrival in Bianliang, there was an interval of ten days. This time was neither long nor short, just right.
Anyone who was ready to watch the excitement, or who had some doubts about Wang Shao, kept quiet.
"Guan family, Wang Shao entered the city and took his son Wang Hou back to his hometown directly..."
Wang Zhongzheng reported to Zhao Xi in a low voice, and after speaking, he stood aside as if nothing had happened.
It seems that this Wang Shao still has some thoughts.
Wang Shao's home is a part of his ancestral home and a room in Bianliang.
Bring your son back too...~ Is this to gag others? Or is it just for yourself?
Still thinking too much!
No matter what, according to Wang Shao's temperament, I'm afraid that when he returns home, he will just take a shower and change clothes, and he will have an audience soon.
…
"I have an audience with Wang Shao of the Governor's Office of Xihe Road..."
Zhao Xi had just tidied the desk when he heard the internal prison officer's report.
"Zhongzheng, look at who is in the cabinet and call them all in..."
Zhao Xi really has an attitude of saying nothing to others now.
As for what you want to express? It’s a matter of opinion. Anyway, it’s not that simple.
The cabinet is all here.
Zhao Xi did not ask questions at the beginning, but first asked the internal prison officer to make tea for Wang Shao...~ It was a long journey, so he probably came home to shower and change clothes.
When the cabinet arrived, Zhao Xi offered a seat again.
"Zichun, you should know the detailed situation very well. Tell me, what do you think? You have brought your sons back to Beijing. It seems you still don't believe me!"
When Zhao Xi said this, no one looked.
At this time, Wang Shao wanted to see Wang Anshi's face...
The cabinet ministers dare not look at each other... The majesty of the official family now is too scary.
"Wei Chen doesn't dare! Officials, Wei Chen did understand what happened, but it was not entirely because of this that Wei Chen brought his dog back to the court."
"Oh, let's take a look."
"In the past few years, the imperial court has been training new troops, ministers and dogs, and has had many interactions with military officers and civil servants who have experienced the martial arts hall."
"Both Wei Chen and Quan Zi felt inferior after coming into contact with the new army generals and captains. Wei Chen brought Quan Zi back to the court because he wanted to ask for favor from the officials and allow Quan Zi to be trained in the martial arts hall."
"In the official family, Quanzi has experienced Hehuang with his ministers over the years, and has been deeply favored by the emperor. His official rank has reached the rank of rank. I am afraid that Quanzi is one of the very few generals in the dynasty who has not been trained by the martial arts hall."
"I don't dare to lead the country and the dynasty with my meager achievements. Therefore, I sincerely ask the officials for permission to let the dog go to the martial arts hall for training."
Wang Shao stood up and bowed to reply.
This was a reasonable explanation. Zhao Xi waved his hand and asked him to take his seat again.
"Mr. Wenge, this is your responsibility. Is Wang Hou as Zichun said?"
"Back to the official's house, it's true."
"Well, Mr. Wen Ge will arrange for Wang Hou to enter the Martial Arts Hall to be trained as a general and foreman! The court cannot treat meritorious officials badly. Wang Hou can be regarded as having meritorious service in the past few years!"
Zhao Xi looked around and looked at the cabinet ministers. He continued...~
"Zichun, the imperial court intends to manage Xixia. Therefore, after successfully opening the Hehuang border, continuing to advance westward and forming a real strategic encirclement of Xixia has become the top priority of the imperial court's planning. What do you think about your next position?
What do you think?"
There is no ambiguity at all, very direct.
"Back at the official residence, Wei Chen thinks that Wei Chen is still suitable to continue leading the army to the west...~"
"Zichun be careful what you say!"
Wang Anshi interrupted Wang Shao's words. He led his troops to the west. Then, the troops led by Wang Shao were definitely not just the number of troops in Anjing Hehuang today...～
Wang Shao made such a request to the officials, which seemed to Wang Anshi to be unreasonable.
"Mr. Wang Ge, let Zichun finish."
"The official family and the Hehuang area, I dare not say that it is impregnable, but I can still guarantee stability. As for the tribes that are attached to it, although they are guided by Wei Chen, the benefits they receive all come from the imperial court. Wei Chen
There has never been a private promise. This is one."
"The second point is that Wei Chen is actually not good at governing, and is more suitable for foreign affairs. Therefore, Wei Chen asked the official for orders, hoping that the court would be kind enough to allow Wei Chen to continue to lead his troops to the west."
