258 The backbone of a great writer

"This official and Wang Shu have a deep friendship, but the way is different, so I would like to go to Huangzhou to find out!" But it's not that there is no one who sacrifices his life for righteousness, isn't this just one who stands out, black, thin and tall, it's none other than Su Shi!

At the beginning of the year, this great writer who offended the emperor finally came to work, and was transferred back to the capital, and was reappointed as the right secretary of the province.

This is not that the emperor forgave Su Shi, but Sima Guang realized the importance of the Taiwan edict to the court dispute and deliberately recommended it. Why do you have to recommend a foreign official that the emperor doesn't like very much? It's very particular.

If you directly recommend people from the old party, Wang Anshi will definitely oppose it, and Su Shi belongs to the kind of left-right wavering faction who is in the old party, but sometimes opposes the old party's remarks, which can be regarded as a compromise.

The reason why Wang Anshi agreed to let Su Shi come back as a spokesman also had his own considerations. In the past six months or so, the emperor seems to have become more and more enthusiastic about monopolizing power, and he has constantly changed the official system.

If this continues, once the emperor monopolizes power, he, the prime minister, will be about to reach the end, so he expressed support for Sima Guang's proposal.

Since the emperor's changes to the official system cannot be forced, it can be regarded as a kind of silent resistance to put the new position on someone who does not listen to the emperor very much.

Su Shi is more suitable, he is famous, courageous, and not the master who dares to confront the emperor, which will not exacerbate the contradiction and will not make the emperor too comfortable.

But Su Shi himself doesn't have this awareness, in fact, he is not suitable for being an official at all, he is too idealistic, and officialdom is an extremely practical place, and he can't keep any ideals.

No, he came out to make trouble again, to do things that no one else wants to do, as if only in this way can he show that he is different and superior.

He himself is an official, and it is his duty to supervise the political affairs of the court and the conduct of officials, and he brought it up in court, and no one can say that he will not be allowed to go. Emperor Shenzong estimated that the back molars were about to be crushed, but he still had to be encouraged and given a temporary title of Huangzhou Inspector.

But I don't have the right to fart, I can only look and listen with my eyes and ears, and then come back and say it with my mouth. As for whether there is a life to come back, it doesn't matter.

The brother-in-law is tossing in Huangzhou, and his eldest brother is not only not annoying, but also very comfortable. In this way, the courtiers had to devote part of their brains to pondering Wang Xu, and the pressure on the emperor was much less.

Those slaughtered generals are considered fart, not to mention that they all deserve it, even if they don't have any crimes, as long as they can divert the attention of the court, they must be killed, and they can't be killed. Otherwise, how could the life and death of one or two generals attract the attention of the courtiers.

The brother-in-law also did something that made the eldest brother comfortable, that is, to let the Tibetan people build a temple and make a golden statue to worship. Regardless of whether the living person is suitable to go to the temple to be a Buddha statue, this loyalty alone makes the emperor feel as refreshing as drinking iced sour plum soup in the middle of summer.

If Wang Shu can really change the religious beliefs and habits of the people of Huangzhou, not only will the emperor feel comfortable, but his pocket will be more comfortable.

The Fan people on the border have always been the chicken ribs of the Great Song Dynasty, don't raise them, just make trouble all day long, raise them, the fart tax can't be collected, and there is no surplus value to exploit, it is better to raise pigs to kill and eat meat, and it will occupy a large amount of treasury expenditure every year.

This problem has not been completely solved in all dynasties, if it weren't for the fact that the previous dynasty was too accustomed to the Li family, they would not have turned the vicinity of Liangzhou into a monolith, and simply founded the country, what a big trouble this is.

Now the horse seems to have found a way to solve it once and for all, and there is no need for the court to dig out a copper plate. This kind of good thing is still going to stop it? Whoever stands in the way is a bad brain.

Regardless of success or not, there is no loss for the emperor, and if he succeeds, most of the credit will be recorded on the emperor's head, and there will be a strong stroke in the history books, and future generations will enjoy endless benefits.

It's okay to fail, isn't it just another crime on the horse's head? The more charges on the brother-in-law's head, the easier it is to control, and he can be taken down in minutes, and the courtiers all applauded, and none of them objected.

Therefore, the more Emperor Shenzong looks at his brother-in-law, the more pleasing it is, and the more he looks at Su Shi, the more it is an eyesore. You said that you didn't honestly be your advisor, and you really thought that you would erase what happened before you were transferred back.

You came out to make trouble for whatever I did, and now I want to abolish my pawns, so that I will lose face in front of the courtiers, and my heart can be punished! Guards, guards, I don't have so many people to protect you with a thousand cuts! I will draw a circle and curse you, as soon as you enter Huangzhou, you will be thrown into the abyss by the Tibetan people!

"Zizhan is reckless again, he has been going to Huangzhou for thousands of miles, and most of the way there is not even an official road station, how to get there? I don't think His Majesty and Sima Xianggong are willing to see their brother to make the trip, so it is better to avoid illness. ”

Li Gonglin has also been promoted now, half a level higher than Hong Tao's General Zuowei. Don't look at him as a wall grass and have no opinions, but he is okay with his friends, and he is unwilling to watch Su Shi take risks, let alone see Su Shi move Wang Xu. These two people were originally friends, and it was not a joke to make such a fuss.

"Wang Xucao cares about people's lives and kills two out of thirty officials in the court, it's hard to pretend not to know, then what's the use of me still being an official, it's better to go home and be happy!" Su Shi made a mistake again, he felt that he was on the side of justice, justice would defeat evil, and he was the embodiment of justice.

"It's really hard to draw conclusions about whether to kill in vain or not, I have read the transcript of the secret recital sent by the Imperial City Division to His Majesty where the Prime Minister Wang is, which lists in detail the crimes of thirty-two officers. The latter is easy to say, just leading the troops to besiege the Yamen, the head of the horse infantry, is already equivalent to rebellion. Afterwards, the accounts and money were found out from the departments under their jurisdiction, and there were human and material evidence, and even if the three divisions tried it, it would be difficult to overturn the case. In the past, I really didn't know that Jin Qing still had such means and such a heart, so I really shouldn't be impressed by it. ”

Li Gonglin is now a member of the New Party camp, and he must have seen more things than Su Shi, who had just been transferred back from other places. He didn't think that going to Huangzhou to investigate the killing of the officer would have any results, and once he became an enemy of Wang Xu, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Wang Shu is no longer the polite and humble gentleman he used to be, and he can let a group of children cut the throats of dozens of people in public and bleed to death, and he still thinks about what to eat at noon afterwards, I'm afraid he won't care about killing a few more.

"Why did the Privy Council and the Imperial City Division know so clearly, it wasn't that someone instructed them to write it indiscriminately." Su Shi has now entered the realm of selflessness, and in order to prove that the theory in his heart is right, he can ignore all evidence.

"Shh......h Thou shalt not speak falsely. The privy deputy envoy Wang Shaowang has been fighting in the northwest for many years, and there are many old departments in the army. Imperial City Division, Zizhan didn't know, Jin Qing had a guard called Wasp, he was originally a subordinate of Pei Ying Pei Zhonggui next to His Majesty, and he was also a disciple, so he thought that being given to the horse was not just a guard. Therefore, every move of the horse is probably seen by His Majesty and the two ministers, if there is something wrong, there is no need to go to Huangzhou, and the gold medal will arrive first. ”

Seeing that Su Shi was not going to eat oil and salt, Li Gonglin had to take the risk of taking out some dry goods. Once these words reach the ears of others, it is a big taboo, and whoever has nothing to do with the emperor's actions and gossip everywhere will have no good fruit to eat.

"How can we and other courtiers prevail from the words of the internal officials, Bo Shi does not need to persuade again, even if Huangzhou is a tiger's lair and Longtan, he has to break through as a brother. I'll go back and pack up for a day or two, and I'll leave the day after tomorrow! ”

Now if anyone says that Huangzhou is not dangerous at all, and you can eat, drink and have fun when you go to the place, it is estimated that Su Shi does not want to go. The more dangerous and difficult it was, the more he felt that he had to show it himself. And it can't be said that the horse is not guilty, he is not guilty because he is wrong, so how can it be.

"Alas...... Zizhan take care! Before Li Gonglin finished speaking, Su Shi had already turned around with his fists clenched. At this point, persuasion is useless, you can only pray for God's blessing, plus the horse is nostalgic.
