Chapter 29: Traveling in the Age of Floating Life (2)
[Tomorrow is still two watches, noon and evening. 】
Han Gang followed Wang Anshi to send Wang Anli.
But seeing a group of people who were already around Wang Anli from a distance, Wang Anshi's face didn't look good.
There are seven brothers in Wang Anshi's generation, four of whom have survived to become officials, and the third Wang Anshi is the elder. The following are Wang Anguo, Wang Anli, and Wang Anshang. Wang Anguo died of illness a few years ago, Wang Anshang served abroad all the year round, while Wang Anli was mostly in Beijing.
The so-called eldest brother is like a father, and when he sees the big brother pulling with one hand, he put. Swinging into a skeleton, ganging with a group of bureaucrats with the same character, obviously with outstanding ability, but he is doing bad things in his conduct, Wang Anshi will have a ghost if he can see it clearly.
Fortunately, as soon as he saw Wang Anshi's flag, Wang Anli's side was immediately clean, and there was no one else within three zhang.
Wang Anli came up to greet Wang Anshi, and then Han Gang went over to salute Wang Anli.
Seeing that Han Gang also followed Wang Anshi over, and listened to the rumors in the capital in the past few days, starting from Wang Anli, everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
Han Gang couldn't help it, his three pieces of music really turned his face with Wang Anshi.
The day before, the wine was poured at the banquet, and the next day they went to their duty and parted ways. Wang Anshi's mood will not be much better than Sima Guang in the Wende Palace.
Han Gang didn't want to ruin his personal friendship with Wang Anshi because of academic disputes. took the initiative to come over to see off Wang Anli today, which also meant mending the relationship - however, there were also two or three percent of them forced over by Wang Yi.
He was too ruthless before, and after the news came out, Wang Yi was so angry that he cried all night and didn't speak for two days. Only by cultivating one's self and family can we govern the country and level the world. Han Gang was also in a hurry to extinguish the fire in the backyard.
Being pulled by Wang Anshi to speak, being taught like a primary school student, the impatience in Wang Anli's expression, although Han Gang stood far away to avoid suspicion, he could see it very clearly.
Wang Anli is too frivolous, likes voice, and is close to Su Shi's group, and his heart is completely different from Wang Anshi and Han Gang. As soon as he faced Wang Anshi, he was uncomfortable, and he had nothing to say to Han Gang.
Although relatives are relatives after all, as soon as Wang Anguo's mourning period expired, Wang Anli immediately called prostitutes to come to the banquet as if he was relieved. The unscrupulous style made Han Gang dislike it in his heart, so he naturally wouldn't get close.
Regarding the bad things in his family, after Wang Anshi went to Beijing, Han Gang never mentioned it, but Wang Anshi also had his own channels, and I don't know where he heard about it.
Wang Anli was almost forced away by Wang Anshi, but Han Gang felt that it was more that Wang Anshi wanted to protect his younger brother. Local things can be turned into small things, and small things can be turned into small things, but in the capital, no matter how small things are, under the encouragement of people with intentions, there is a great possibility that they will become monstrous waves.
After all, Wang Anshi still wants to give face to Wang Anli's younger brother, and if he teaches a lesson, he will say that it is no problem in private, but it will not be convenient in front of outsiders and juniors.
In the roadside restaurant, the banquet for sending off guests had already been set up, Wang Anshi pulled his younger brother into the table, and the rest of the people waited for the fish to enter, Han Gang was in front, and Wang Anli's son Wang Fang accompanied the table.
It's just that when seeing him off, he usually writes poems to show his parting feelings. But when I saw Han Gang, the group of people who were the best at writing poetry and writing became gourds with saw-mouthed mouths, and they couldn't pour a word. However, Wang Anshi had no scruples, wrote poems to see him off, and in a blink of an eye, a seven-law article came out.
But Wang Anshi dared to ignore his son-in-law's face, where did others dare to come in person? It's okay to laugh at Han Gang behind his back for not writing poetry, but now that he is in front of him, who dares to make a taboo?
For a while, only Wang Anshi's article lit up, and the others were either staring at the plate with chopsticks, or trying to see a flower in the wine glass.
Han Gang saw that it was cold, so he got up and said with a smile: "Han Gang lacks poetic talent, the world knows it, and he doesn't dare to show ugliness, so today I will be a sword and pen official for you." ”
After that, he asked people to remove the wine and food from their seats and set up the four treasures of the study. picked up the pen, wrote a few prefaces, said the cause and effect, time, place and people, and began to transcribe Wang Anshi's works.
He has been practicing calligraphy for more than ten years, and although he is far from being a scholar, he will no longer be said to be a scribe of the three museums, giving a full comment of ingenuity.
When Han Gang began to copy the poems, the atmosphere at the table finally became lively.
Wang Anli's circle of friends is too far from Wang Anshi and Han Gang, and the poetry and wine of the dry and sassy people and the heavy ministers of Zai Fu can never be put in a basket. However, at the banquet, the lively atmosphere was a good hand, and the farewell poems came out one by one along with a glass of wine.
Wang Anshi looked at Han Gang who was writing with his head bowed at the upper seat, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Just look at this little thing today, it can be seen that its strength is magnificent, and it is rare in the world, if it were not for the fact that his temper was stinky and hard like a stone in a pit, this son-in-law really had nothing to say.
Han Gang didn't know what Wang Anshi thought, even if he knew Lu Dao, he wouldn't feel that his strength was really that big. He just didn't care about the little things. If he really wants to commit the people and things he cares about, what will happen to the two kings? What is the result of Sima Guang and Lu Gong's writings?
Han Gang started to copy, and his heart was unhindered. The eldest brother is like a father, and Wang Anshi pulled Wang Anli over there to advise him earnestly. The send-off banquet lasted for two hours, and the last thing was that the song ended and the people dispersed, sending Wang Anli far away to Jiangnan.
After the banquet dispersed, Wang Anli's friends said goodbye and left, but Wang Anshi said to Han Gang, who was going to go back early to cancel the vacation: "Yukun." You accompany the old man for a walk. ”
Han Gang was helpless, took a step forward, and accompanied Wang Anshi to the south gate, while the others avoided each other.
From the outside of the Qingcheng Palace to the Nanxun Gate, Wang Anshi did not speak, until a group of pigs came out of front - live pigs entered the city, they could only take the Nanxun Gate - to block the road ahead, a group of 'idiot prime ministers' made the ministers avoid the prestige of the road, Wang Anshi stopped at this time, turned around and looked at Han Gang for a long time: "Yukun, do you really not want to do it, the privy deputy envoy?" ”
"Father-in-law. The son-in-law's thoughts, but he has never hidden them. Han Gang smiled and threw the topic back, "And the thoughts of the Son of Heaven, my father-in-law will not be ignorant." Otherwise, why recruit Zeng Zixuan into Beijing? ”
Hearing Han Gang mention Zeng Bu's name, Wang Anshi's face suddenly sank, but then turned into a bitter smile, shook his head, and stopped talking, choking Han Gang enough.
After the Nanxun Gate was unblocked again, Wang Anshi and Han Gang got on their horses and entered the city, passing through the inner and outer gates, and Wang Anshi spoke again: "Uncle Lu Han is leaving." ”
Han Gang smiled: "Zhang Diming [Zhang Qi], Pu Chuanzheng [Pu Zongmeng] wrote a good article." After a pause, he added, "Sun Juyuan is not bad, and today's Jia Yi is not inferior to Sima Twelvezhang back then." ”
Wang Anshi was speechless again.
In the ten days after the Great Worship, the white linen edict to Han Gang was given four times in a row, and the condolence edict written by Lu Gong was also written three times in a row. Even if the emperor and empress wanted him to leave early, he could be the privy envoy and the crown prince, and it was inconvenient to kick him away. When Lu Gong wrote a series of books to invite the county, the Hanlin Academy wrote a series of edicts to comfort him.
If he is thick-skinned, Lu Gongshu will no longer be on the book, and he will really have nothing to do with him in a short period of time. But who is the Hanlin Bachelor who knows the system? It is the best selection of the world.
Just like the condolence edict drafted by Sima Guang for Zhao Ji back then, it could make Wang Anshi angry. The three Neihan, headed by Zhang Qi, each drafted the condolence edict, which was clearly praised and depreciated, and every word was punishable, which was not inferior to Sima Guang's skills, so that Lu Gongzhu had no face to fake it as true, and he was cheeky and insisted on staying.
Han Gang looked up at the sky, in the past few years, as the coal has been used more and more, the winter in the capital has become more and more foggy. On a clear and cloudless winter day, the sky seems to be covered with a veil.
It's just that in Han Gang's heart, everything that should go has to go, and what should come hasn't come yet. At the beginning of the lunar month, the capital is a garden after a rainstorm, the filth is swept away, and the air is fresh and pleasant.
……………………
When Cai Jing and the three of them arrived at the West Gate, most of the imperial history had arrived, but fortunately Li Ding had not yet arrived.
Cai Jing said hello in the past, he is very popular, no matter whether he enters the stage sooner or later, he will talk and laugh with him, and the dead faces in the palace hall are completely different looks.
After a while, another master and a servant came from afar on two horses.
is in his thirties, similar to Cai Jing, but his image is much worse. When Cai Jing saw him, he greeted him: "Li Wenwen, why is it so late?" ”
"It's not too late, and I hope you will forgive me." Li Gefei confessed again and again, saying: "Lu Gongbao was already packing up his belongings, and it was inconvenient to pass in front of his house, so he had to take a detour. ”
Cai Jing smiled when he heard this: "Uncle Wen is really kind. ”
He pulled Li Gefei over, but the faces of a group of imperial historians turned cold, and they casually bowed their hands, but they didn't mean to be close at all.
Li Gefei was very embarrassed, if Cai Jing hadn't chatted with him for a few words, he wouldn't even have left the station.
Li Gefei was recommended by Li Qingchen, and it seems that he has a relationship with the Han family in Xiangzhou. However, the Jinshi of Xining's nine years was transferred to Beijing in less than five years, and he also did the power to supervise the imperial history, which really made Zhao Tingzhi and Qiang Yuanming, the Jinshi of Xining's three years of Jinshi, jealous. And according to the rules, the supervising imperial history must be at least a senior Beijing official after serving as a magistrate, but Li Gefei has never been a magistrate at all, and he has just been transferred to an official, so he can only add a power word.
If it weren't for the lack of people in the Imperial History Observatory at the moment, and because it was strongly recommended by Li Qingchen, Li Gefei would not have been able to take up this position at all, and he would have been scolded back a long time ago. Of course, the most important thing is that the approval power of the new imperial history is firmly in the hands of the Son of Heaven. And with the energy of the Son of Heaven, at most only one imperial historian was arranged, and the rest of the candidates were all approved by the queen. In private, the imperial historians are all discussing, and the queen doesn't know what kind of qualifications she needs to supervise the imperial history.
Cai Jing can be a man, and even Li Gefei, who is not welcomed, was greeted, and after half an hour, a family member who didn't know whose family came and said that Li Zhongcheng was coming.
The imperial historians immediately gave up the gossip and rushed over to greet them.
The carriage and horses of Li Ding's family are very simple, there are only two carriages carrying the belongings, and there are few servants and maids. Coming all the way along the street, it is not inconspicuous at all, if it weren't for a group of imperial historians gathering, it wouldn't have attracted any attention at all.
This imperial historian has long been regarded by the old party as a breakthrough to attack the new party, and rumors of unfilial piety are all over the world. But Li Ding's fellow family spared no effort, and it is obvious that the family has no money to spare. In terms of integrity, he is definitely worthy of the position of Zhongcheng in the imperial history.
And he also led the whole Wutai up and down, and he cleaned up a group of lyricists who love nonsense. also let them, who always love to rely on literary talents, know that only Yushitai is qualified to judge the virtuous and unworthy officials!
Compared with the impeachment of the prime minister, such an impeachment is just as painful, if not higher. In any case, the prime minister will not be able to enter the imperial prison, but after Su Shi lived for many days, the reputation of the eastern and western prisons of Wutai has been able to deter hundreds of officials in the past two years.
And this time he was affected, with Wang Anshi and Lu Huiqing here, he could come back in a blink of an eye. The imperial historians will not be villains in vain.
A riverboat entered the city through the West Water Gate at this time. An old man dressed in Ayara, still a little rude, stood at the bow of the boat. I'm about 50 years old, and I look quite rich.
Xishuimen and Ximen Xinzheng Gate stood next to each other, and the sharp-eyed Cai Jing could see the old man's appearance at a glance. Cai Jing had met twice at Zhangdun's house. A little earlier, it was in the West Taiyi Palace.
He is a guest of Zhang's house.
Lu Ming.
