It's nearly March, and it's been sunny for many days. The weather is getting warmer day by day, and the clothes on the pedestrians on the street are getting thinner and thinner. Looking at the extraordinarily bright and far-reaching sky overhead, Wu Haogu, who was hurrying, was in a much more relaxed mood as the weather.

He received the edict to report on his work in Beijing ten days ago, and at the same time learned the good news that the "Wan Wan Anti-Liao Plan" had been approved by the official Zhao Ji, as well as another good news, that is, Ji Yi, the founder of Jingdong Shang City, will be appointed as the transit envoy of Hebei.

In the system of magistrates in the Song Dynasty, the transfer envoy was actually the highest administrator along the way. Although during the reigns of Renzong and Shenzong, the Prison Division and the Changping Division were successively established to divide the power of the transfer envoys. But the transit envoy, who held the power of one or more routes of wealth and the supply of military supplies, remained the most powerful magistrate. And the magistrate who is responsible for managing the budget of the Wan Wan Wan anti-Liao is naturally the transfer envoy of Hebei.

This dispatch can involve the management and operation of tens of thousands, at least tens of millions of funds, and it is also stuck in the neck of Wu Haogu, the commander of Xuan. Not to mention a master who is interested in finding faults, even if it is an ordinary high-ranking official, with their financial management level of half a bottle of vinegar, coupled with their preference for government-run industry and commerce, it is enough to make Wu Haogu, the head of the capitalist, drink a pot.

Spending money, especially spending an astronomical amount of money, is really a university question! Looking at the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, that is, Ji Yi can discuss the knowledge of spending money with Wu Haogu. The most other people are talking about kickbacks, if they meet a clean official who is unreasonable and does not understand finance, then they can only watch others waste most of Zhao Ji's thousands of dollars......

So after getting that Ji Yi would partner with him, Wu Haogu sent a long letter to Ji Yi, explaining his "idea of spending money". On the one hand, he took Zhao Jiaren, He Tianran, and Zhang Xizai, the director of the finance office of Jiehe Commercial City, and went to Kaifeng Mansion together.

Now is the time of the military emergency, and Yelu Yanxi, the son of the Great Liao, has already entered the city of Xijin Mansion! The entire Jiehe Commercial Market, including the northern part of the Commercial Market, has been under martial law and curfew. On the surface of the Jiehe River, there are always inland river warships belonging to the Jiehe City Ship Division cruising back and forth.

However, the war between the two sides did not officially begin, and the Song-Liao trade through the Jiehe merchant market was not interrupted, not only was it not interrupted, but there was an unprecedented prosperity - everyone knew that the war was about to start, so it was natural to seize the last opportunity before the war and hurry up all the business that could be done. Those who should be sold must be sent out quickly, and the goods that need to be stockpiled will be hoarded, and no one knows when the trade will be opened again!

Just when Wu Haogu rushed to Kaifeng Mansion day and night, Ji Yi, who had just gotten a fat shortage that everyone envied, was busy in Kaifeng Mansion with the officials of the Ministry of Household and Taifu Temple, all kinds of bargaining.

That's a big order of tens of millions to 10,000,000 yuan! How could the household department and the Taifu Temple give the money out happily? In addition, there are a bunch of large and small ancestors in the Yushi Terrace, all of whom are holding back their energy to dig out a few big cases from it!

So Ji Yi, who became the transfer envoy of the Hebei capital, in addition to dealing with the "gold masters" these days, he also has to visit the bigwigs of various factions in the DPRK and China.

Since the beginning of the great struggle between the old and new parties in the DPRK and China, the Imperial Historical Observatory has ceased to be a relatively independent supervisory body, but a tool for the struggle between the two parties. Nowadays, although the old and new parties are merging, the struggle between the new Confucianism and the old Confucianism is gradually rising again.

Ji Yi, as a figure between the old and new Confucianism, happened to sit in the seat of the Hebei Metropolitan Transit Envoy, can he burn more incense from the bigwigs of all parties?

But he was still lucky, although Ji Yi did not have the big backer of Zhang Dian, he still had Zhang Yuan, the head of the four handsome people who now made the Confucian students in the world praise him (in the eyes of the Liao people, Zhang Yuan is not as good as Gao Yu, but in the eyes of the world's scholars, Zhang Yuan is the best) stood behind him.

Zhang Yuan was a general who was born as a first-class jinshi and went on an expedition to recover Anxi and Beiting for the Great Song Dynasty, and also broke the 100,000-strong army of the Great Food Country on the high mountains of the Green Ridge. Moreover, he also peacefully recovered the Hexi Corridor from the hands of the "Western Thieves", and also opened Confucian academies to Anxi, Beiting and Tianzhu.

Such an achievement is definitely the first among today's scholars. Moreover, he is still a real commander with heavy troops. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the sword handle of the Confucian scholars in the world!

Even characters like Cai Jing and Zhang Shangying have to look at Zhang Yuan's face, take care of Ji Yi, and let their henchmen in the Yushitai pay attention to it, don't bite too much.

Of course, Zhang Yuan himself will not come forward to greet anyone. He should still bring filial piety to Zhang Dian at this time, it is already against Confucianism to take advantage of the affection and appointment of officials, how can he still be a visitor? So after entering Beijing, he lived in Ji Yi's mansion in Kaifeng Mansion, except for entering the palace by edict, he closed the door to thank guests.

However, living in Ji Yi's mansion shows his position - Ji Yi is the person he supports!

Today, Ji Yi returned from Qionglin Palace and hurriedly went to the mansion where Zhang Yuan was. When I entered the courtyard, I saw the big filial son Zhang Yuan wearing a regular home clothes, leaning comfortably on a bamboo couch, and a desk beside him, with a cup of sour plum soup on it, and a book in his hand, looking at it with relish.

"Fourth uncle," Ji Yi asked with a smile while taking off his official uniform under the service of the female envoy, "What are you reading today?" ”

"It's the Ink Lady's Q&A," Zhang Yuan said, "I thought she was a dancer, but I didn't expect to have such insights." ”

Ji Yi said with a smile: "She is a Manichaean saint, she is also familiar with Confucianism, and she has been influenced by Wu Haogu, she has read "Tianli Theory", "Positivism" and "Theory of Reason", this time I went to the West, and read the anthologies of Aristotle and Kengdie, so I was naturally inspired. ”

"Her explanation of Tianli is very good!" Zhang Yuan put down the scroll in his hand, picked up the sour plum soup and took a sip, "This is well written...... Not only is it very helpful to our Confucianism, but also the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism can also gain something from it. ”

The Molazi's Questions and Answers is actually a pamphlet explaining religious studies, focusing on the analysis of Confucianism's Tianli, Tianfang's Allah, and Manichaeism's dualism.

In other words, Mo Niangzi equates Heavenly Reason with the "Lord of the Source" such as Allah, light, and darkness. Officially, Tianli is regarded as the creator of the world, and the worship of the creator is the highest form of Confucian ancestor worship. This is to connect the ancestors with the Heavenly Principle! In this way, the idea of respecting heaven and Dharma ancestors has religious significance and can become the core of Confucianism.

This set of ideas may not be of much value to the positivists and rationalists, but it is of great significance to the Tianli school. Because it is a crucial step from the Tenri sect to the Tenri sect!

Zhang Yuan, on the other hand, was at the forefront of the confrontation between religious ideologies and had to find a shortcut for the religiosification of Confucianism—if he blindly avoided the source and only talked about morality and ethics, Confucianism would inevitably be inferior in the face of Tianfangjiao, Buddhism, and Taoism. Especially for the illiterate middle and lower class people, the Four Books and Five Classics are far less sacred than worshipping Heavenly Principles and ancestors.

Moreover, with the worship of heavenly principles, the Confucian academy can also be merged with the ancestral hall. The teachers of the academy can also preside over the worship of the gods and ancestors, and in fact become clergy......

"Wu Chongdao is coming to Kaifeng Mansion, right?" Zhang Yuan asked with a smile, "I happened to meet him, he should also watch "Mo Niangzi Q&A"!" ”

"How can he have that kung fu!" Ji Yi, who also changed into a thin shirt, sat down on a bamboo couch placed in the shade of a tree. "He stabbed a hornet's nest this time, not only did the civil officials look at him unpleasantly, but even the officials didn't trust him as much as before."

"Did the official family let you keep an eye on Wu Chongdao today?" Zhang Yuan picked his eyelids.

Ji Yi smiled, "I didn't say it explicitly, but it was the meaning inside and outside the words." ”

Zhang Yuan smiled: "Who let Wu Chongdao violate the will of the official family?" ”

Of course, Zhao Ji did not explicitly say that he wanted to break the fortune and avoid disasters, but his mind was not a secret to those who were really close to the core of the power of the Great Song Empire.

Not to mention Wu Haogu, he is almost a roundworm in Zhao Ji's stomach, will he not know Zhao Ji's thoughts?

But he violated Zhao Ji's intentions, and threw out an anti-Liao plan worth 10,000,000 yuan. Although Zhao Ji was forced to accept Wu Haogu's plan in desperation, he must have been very unhappy in his heart.

Even if this incident finally makes Zhao Ji out of the limelight, Wu Haogu is no longer the former henchman of the Heavenly Family.

"Fourth uncle," Ji Yi said, "What do you think should be done about this?" ”

"Hehe, the birds are all hidden, the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooking...... If you think of the old friendship, maybe you can have a glass of wine to release the military power, right? ”

"Fourth uncle," Ji Yi shook his head, "What should I do?" ”

"You?" Zhang Yuan laughed, "Yizhi, shouldn't you have accepted the dispatch of the Hebei Capital Transfer Envoy without thinking about it?" ”

"Of course I thought about it, but I just ......" Ji Yi said and stopped, just shaking his head.

"Are you worried that Wu Haogu's strength is too great?" Zhang Yuan asked with a smile.

Ji Yi nodded, "The positivist school has long been over, Wu Haogu now has a new army of six generals, as well as the financial source of Jiehe Commercial City, and the warship fleet at sea is also controlled by his henchmen, I really don't know what will happen in the future?" ”

Zhang Yuan just smiled, took another sip of sour plum soup, and said with a smile: "His tail is too big to fall, aren't we the same?" He has soldiers and horses in the Jiehe, and I am alone with my bare hands in Hexi? Remember, the matter of supporting one faction and suppressing one faction, the successive officials of the Great Song Dynasty are very good at it. We can't collude with Wu Haogu, you should know this truth, right? You have to grasp the balance of this. ”
