In the Paradise of Solitude, Sima Guang sat at the table.

On the table was a packed bag that had been tidied up. The carriages and horses were also prepared outside, and as long as Sima Guang said something, they could set off immediately.

But Sima Guang, who had only received two edicts last night, was now hesitant. Because from last night to now, from Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi, and even Wang Gongchen and Chu Jianzhong to the elders, he has received more than a dozen latest news about Tokyo City one after another.

Although I don't know the further information of Lu Dao, the queen's curtain is certain, and Wang Anshi has become a major military affairs in Pingzhang. Under such circumstances, Sima Guang asked himself that it was no longer meaningful to go to the capital again.

Will Shangjing be humiliated by Wang Anshi again? If that happens, Sima Guang would rather die.

Although he had already received the edict, he set off a few days late, and said that he was sick on the way, so there was no obstacle to returning to Luoyang.

It's just that this is the first opportunity to leave Luoyang in eleven years!

Sima Guang looked at the outfit and couldn't make a decision for a while.

"Sir, look who's coming." Sima Kang suddenly led a person into the main hall.

Seeing the person coming, Sima Guang was shocked: "Uncle He, why are you here?" ”

The man stepped forward and bowed down in front of Sima Guang: "Torture and forgiveness to meet Mr. Junshi." ”

Xing Shu is Sima Guang's disciple, but he also walks under Lu Gong's door, and at the same time he is also a disciple of Ercheng. In the past two years, because Lu Gongzhu has always served as a privy envoy, Xingshu has been staying in the capital to serve.

"It's hard work with Uncle Yuan." Sima Guang looked at the torture and smiled slightly.

The heroic torture and forgiveness is the backbone of the new generation of the old party, and Sima Guang has never hidden his admiration for him.

Although it is easy to make friends with the old party, there are many friends in the old party, and there are also many friends in the faction that looks at the style in the middle, and even there are friends who can talk in the new party. But Sima Guang and Lu Gongshu didn't think it was a big deal, in their opinion, the punishment is a generous person, with an unruly temperament, as long as they can keep the bottom limit, it is harmless.

Of course, this is also because they appreciate forgiveness. If it were someone else, Sima Guang and Lu Gongzhu were afraid that they would immediately turn their faces.

The torture is dusty, and there are some flowers on the face, which is because I just wiped my face outside but didn't wipe it clean.

"I think Mr. Junshi must have known about the things in the capital." Xing Shu sat down and spoke, "After the suburbs of the Son of Heaven, he suddenly suffered a stroke at the palace banquet, which really caught people off guard. Especially the queen's curtain is even more unexpected. The privy council ordered the students to take leave and come to Xijing, just to discuss with Mr. Junshi, and also asked the students to ask the opinions of Fu Zheng Gong and Wen Lu Gong. ”

After finishing speaking, Xing Shu picked up the tea sent by Sima Kang himself, drank it in a few sips, and immediately asked for another cup after drinking. This move looked rude, but Sima Guang was not the slightest unhappy about it.

Sima Guang's expression was heavy, and he asked Xingshu, "What does Uncle Hao mean?" ”

"Mr. Junshi, nothing else. When the Son of Heaven was dying, he still remembered to give the position of the crown prince and master to Mr., which shows the importance of Mr. As for the current situation, it is really confusing. The privy counsel said, and only Wang Qi, Xue Xiang and Han Gang were also upright. The other Zaifu were recruited in the second half of the night. Xing Shu looked at Sima Guang and said in a deep voice: "Some things are not clear in Luoyang. ”

……………………

"Asking for a meeting outside?"

In the afternoon, Fu Bi, who was taking a nap, was awakened by his son.

"He just came from Sima Junshi and Wen Kuanfu." Fu Shaoting paused for a moment and added, "It was Uncle Lu Hui who ordered him to take leave and rushed from Beijing. ”

"This person is born with disorderly morality, Uncle Lu Han and Sima Twelve are all crooked." Fu Bi shook his head and said categorically, "If I don't see him, I will say that my father is unwell and it is inconvenient to see guests." ”

Fu Shaoting was stunned. 'Clever words confuse morality', this is the saying of Confucius. It's true that the torture can speak, but it is a bit too much to say that it is inherently disorderly.

Fu Shaoting knew that Fu Bi didn't like torture very much, but he had never behaved so bitterly. His father's evaluation of others, except for his praise, will not be passed on as much as possible, so as not to cause disasters in the future. Especially in recent years, as I get older, my temper has become better and better.

Speaking of which, this change seems to have been after Han Qi's death. Anyway, after a lifetime of fighting openly and secretly, at least in terms of longevity, he won Han Qi after all.

But today's father's reaction is really strange. Fu Shaoting still wanted to persuade him, but seeing Fu Bi waving his hand impatiently, he didn't dare to ask more. I can only go out of the road first and find an excuse to send the punishment away.

Hearing that Fu Bi was unwell and it was inconvenient to see guests, Xing Shu stood up and arched his hand: "Since Zheng Gong is unwell, how dare Xing Shu disturb again?" ”

Fu Shaoting was a little embarrassed, accompanied the gift, and sent the torture out of the house.

The Torture Rider's mount had been brought in, and Fu Shaoting sent the Torture to the horse. The identity of Ercheng's student is fine, but the two identities of Lu Gongzhu's confidant and Sima Guang's protégé, even if he is Fu Shaoting, it is inconvenient to ignore them.

In front of the gate of the rich mansion, the criminal Shu who was about to get on the horse took Fu Shaoting's hand, frowned slightly, sighed lightly, his voice was deep, and his voice was serious, "The criminal Shu knows that Zheng Gong is the most important and usual, and Yingzong was ill in the old years, which angered Cisheng for a while, and it was Zheng Gong who bluntly admonished. ”

Fu Shaoting was stunned, he didn't know why Xing Shu brought up this old matter.

Although the punishment is simple, Fu Shaoting knew what happened back then, 'Yiyin's affairs, the ministers can do it', Fu Bi said it himself in front of Emperor Yingzong, who disrespected Renzong and disobeyed the empress dowager. Fu Bi was telling Yingzong Zhao Shu at that time that if he didn't keep his filial piety, he would have to learn from Yi Yin and 'let Taijia go to Tonggong'. After that, the rumors from the outside world even became 'Iho's matter, and the minister can do it.' That is to say, Fu Bi still has to learn from Huo Guang and abolish the emperor.

Fu Shaoting was stunned, and the punishment was still sincere in tone: "Now the Queen Mother is especially in the palace, but it is the queen who hangs the curtain, and Zheng Gong may be depressed because of this." He looked left and right and got a little closer, "But at the moment, the two mansions are silent, and the Yushitai does not dare to say much. ”

Fu Shaoting couldn't help but nodded, maybe it was because he skipped the queen mother and became the queen curtain that made his father so annoyed. As for those rumors, it is unclear how much is true and how false it is.

Although Xing Shu is a student of Ercheng and a disciple of Sima Guang and Lu Gong, he is not the kind of person who smells and is as hard as the stone in the pit, and there are many places where there are changes. Perhaps it is for this reason that his father is not pleasing to the eye when he sees the punishment. But can this be said that the punishment is wrong? Of course not! It's all so heart-to-heart.

Arching his hand, Fu Shaoting sincerely thanked the torturer: "Thank you and Uncle for your advice." ”

Xing Shu hurriedly returned the salute, saying that he didn't dare. After a few humble words, he took his leave and left.

In front of the door, he watched Xingshu ride out of the alley, and Fu Shaoting turned back to report to Fu Bi.

Fu Bi was still half-leaning on the couch, and when he heard the movement, he opened his eyes: "The punishment is gone." ”

Fu Shaoting nodded: "My son just sent him back." ”

"Did he say anything when he left?"

Fu Shaoting immediately shook his head: "No." ”

"It's interesting to know." Fu Bi pursed his lips and smiled.

Fu Shaoting couldn't grasp Fu Bi's thoughts, and asked cautiously, "My lord, what should I do next?" ”

Fu Bi's eyelids raised again: "What do you say?" ”

Fu Shaoting lowered his head and thought about it for a moment, and said, "Are you looking for some prescriptions for the Son of Heaven?" There are also a few famous doctors in Luoyang City, and they are not inferior to a few Hanlin medical officers from the Taiyi Bureau. ”

Fu Bi nodded, "Although the Son of Heaven may not be able to use it, the intention that should be fulfilled should indeed be exhausted." ”

With his father's affirmation, Fu Shaoting was a little bolder, and said: "Since the crown prince has been canonized, the lord should also be a congratulatory watch." ”

"And rightfully so." Fu Bi didn't hesitate either.

"The rest, my son can't think of it." Although Fu Shaoting still wanted to do something, he still felt that it was better not to say it, so he asked, "I don't know what else the adults have to say?" ”

Fu Bi didn't have any other instructions, so he just sat up from the couch: "Bring pen and ink, and the congratulatory watch will be written by my father himself." ”

Fu Shaoting hurriedly personally found pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and helped Fu Bi prepare everything for writing on the couch. Serving Fu Bi, who was already rare to pick up a pen, Fu Shaoting sighed tentatively: "Now that I come, I don't know what the result will be for the Queen Mother and King Yong." ”

"Is this what you should be worried about?" Fu Bi's pen stopped, and his voice turned cold: "Don't worry about the affairs of the court!" ”

……………………

"King Yong is sick, the Queen Mother is also sick, Sima Guang is probably going to enter Beijing, I don't know what the adults think about it?"

Under the same night, hundreds of miles away, in the south post of Tokyo, Wang asked Wang Anshi a similar question.

"This is Yukun...... Wang Anshi thought for a while and shook his head, "This matter has nothing to do with Yukun, and I am not interested in my father." With the queen here and the two mansions here, it can naturally be handled well. ”

“…… My lord is a major military matter in Pingzhang! ”

"Is there a difference with the Jixi Ambassador?" Wang Anshi took a book and flipped through it, and from the exposed corner of the book cover, he could see the author's name - Han Gang.

Wang Anshi has long been disinterested in officialdom. Twice prime minister, ten years of capital, has long exhausted his hard work, and even the eldest son who values him the most has been compensated, Wang Anshi in addition to maintaining the new Taoist system, only the interest of Youyou Linxia remains.

This time he bumped into the Son of Heaven who was seriously ill, if it weren't for Zhao Ji's old feelings, he wouldn't have come to this troubled water at all. Especially the important matter of the Pingzhang militarism! Could it be that with Wang Anshi's forty years of officialdom eyesight, he still can't see Zhao Ji's imperial mental tricks? It was a moment of relenting that I took this position.

But then again, this errand also has a benefit, it is easier than easy, you can ignore everything, go to court every five days, and just stand with your eyes closed. In other words, if he is Xuan Ma three times and becomes the prime minister again, he may not be so happy next.
