The dialogue between Zhao Ji and Wang Anshi Junchen has continued like this, from the northwest border to the Jiangnan Gangyun. Only Wen Yanbo took the initiative to attack Wang Anshi at the right time, while Zeng Gongliang, Chen Shengzhi and others stood aside like earth and stone puppets. If it weren't for Zhao Ji's occasional questioning of them, several of the chief officials would have been reduced to mere ornaments.

Since Wang Anshi was appointed as the governor of the political affairs, although he has not been promoted to the prime minister, because of Zhao Ji's trust, the authority of Zhongshu has been in his hands. There are five prime ministers in the political hall, Prime Minister Fu Bi and Zeng Gongliang, and Governor Wang Anshi, Zhao Luan and Tang Jie. However, Zeng Gongliang is old and ignores political affairs, Fu Bi is sick because of disagreement with Wang Anshi's political opinions, Zhao Luan is not capable, and he is always complaining, Tang Jie and Wang Anshi have argued several times in front of the king, but the anger gathers in the chest, gangrene and dies, only Wang Anshi, who is in the prime of life, is full of vitality and handles all government affairs alone. Therefore, there is a joke in the world of 'birth, old age, sickness and death' - Wang Anshisheng, Zeng Gongliang Lao, Fu Bi Sick, Tang Jie's death, and Zhao Luan's suffering. Now there are a few more people in the political hall, but Wang Anshi's situation in charge of the Zhongshu remains unchanged.

The recital in the Chongzheng Hall lasted until nearly noon, and the political affairs that needed to be discussed by the monarch and ministers were handled almost the same. Prime Minister Zeng Gongliang, who was as silent as a stone, finally spoke: "It's almost noon, and the ministers don't dare to delay His Majesty's meal, and the ministers retire!" ”

The prime minister spoke, and the important ministers in the palace all retired. Zhao Ji didn't leave them behind, only hesitated for a moment, and said to Wang Anshi: "Wang Qing, you stay for the time being." ”

Wang Anshi stopped as he said, and the other slaughterers left the palace. Since Wang Anshi entered the court from Jiangning, there have been too many cases of solo playing, so many that no one is surprised.

Wang Anshi stood in the hall, waiting for Zhao Ji to speak. Zhao Ji took out the three marked books from the stack of concertos on the imperial table, and handed them to Wang Anshi with the little yellow door standing beside him.

Wang Anshi took a look, but after he signed the book yesterday, he transferred three letters of recommendation to Zhao Ji with other important chapters - Qinfeng Road Guan Gou Jiyi Text Wang Shao, Xiongwujun [Qinzhou] Jiedu Judge Wu Yan, and recommended Qinzhou Chengji County Buyi Han Gang to become an official, and took care of the injuries and illnesses in the road for Qin Fenglu Jingluo, and Zhang Shouyue, the capital supervisor of Qinfeng Road, also recommended Han Gang, but only the latter.

Wang Anshi only glanced at it a few times before raising his head, he knew what Zhao Ji wanted to say.

"Wang Qing, tell me what Wang Shao has done in the past year?!" There was a faint anger in Zhao Ji's voice.

The direction of the main battle in Kansai is progressing smoothly, but there is no movement on the expected flanks. Wang Shao went to Qin Feng for a year, but now the results he gives are a recommendation! Zhao Ji was afraid of Wang Anshi's face, who had always been eye-catching and supportive of Wang Shaoqing, so he didn't reprimand him in public, but he still had to say it now:

"Han Gang, who was recommended by Wang Shao and the others, is only eighteen years old, and he doesn't even have a background. Do you want me to give a special decree to a person selected from the nine grades? Is there no other talent in Qinzhou!? ”

Under the age of age, they are not allowed to hold substantive posts, and this is the official appointment system that has been common in the DPRK and China for many years. Unless there is a meritorious person, such as Jinshi, Mingjing, etc., the official is under the age of twenty-five, and although he may have an official status, he may not have a mission. That is, he put on an official name and received some money, but he couldn't come out to do things.

In the 100 years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the courtiers have been treated more and more favorably, and the high-quality civil and military ministers can make up for their children and grandchildren, and the prime ministers and the sons of the ruling people are often only ten years old or even eight or nine years old to become officials. If these stinky children are given real jobs to do things, there will be a big mess in the country's political affairs. Therefore, in the past, there was a rule that Jinshi, Mingjing, and Wuchen were limited to the weak crown [20 years old], and the shadow supplement was limited to 25 years old, and no real position was allowed below that. Unless more than one person is recommended at the same time, it will have to wait until the age limit before there will be a sending.

But now there are more and more people who have won officials, and as the children of official eunuchs, it is easy to find relatives and friends of several fathers to recommend at the same time, so the old system of appointing officials has existed in name only. In view of this, Wang Anshi made adjustments to the law on the appointment of officials. It is still the boundary between the ages of twenty and twenty-five, and only after this can they be sent to a real job. If you want to make an exception, it is no longer a matter of recommending many people to succeed, but only by asking the Son of Heaven to make a special decree.

This decree has just been revised and has not yet been promulgated in the world, Wang Shao, Zhang Shouyue and others did not know the reason, and recommended Han Gang, who was only eighteen years old. As usual, there are three people who recommend the same person, and Han Gang, who is not yet weak, can take up a substantive position. But according to today's rules, if Han Gang can't get Zhao Ji's special order, even if he can have an official body, it is impossible to be sent.

For most officials in the country, the life of taking money and not doing things is actually not bad. Scholars and doctors like lawsuits are simple, and the states and counties with abundant products are simple, if you want to try cases every day and you can't get a little oil and water, then what is the meaning of being an official, but everyone avoids it. But Han Gang can't come out to do things, so what's the point of Wang Shao and Zhang Shouyue recommending him?

Wang Anshi understood this very clearly, so he handed over the recommendation of Wang Shao and others and asked for the special decree of the Son of Heaven. If it weren't for that, these three recommendation seals didn't need to be handed to Zhao Ji at all, according to the system of the DPRK and China, the appointment of low-grade officials did not need to be seen by the Son of Heaven, and the political affairs hall could be handled directly, Han Gang was only one from the ninth grade, how could he work until Zhao Ji was worried!?

The Son of Heaven was angry, and for many courtiers, it was like thunder, but Wang Anshi's expression was as usual. He adheres to the attitude of not using suspicious people and employing people without suspicion. Wang Shao's prospects in Northwest Hehuang were optimistic to him, and Zhao Ji also gave great hopes. Although because the Song and Xia countries belonged to Suide City, a major war could break out at any time in the Wuding River valley in the eastern section of Hengshan, and the food and materials needed were astronomical. The DPRK was no longer able to give Qin Feng and Wang Shao too much material support, but at least in terms of personnel, Wang Anshi was prepared to meet Wang Shao's requirements as much as possible.

"Although Han Gang is young, his talent is extraordinary. If he is a child of a family, it may be said that there are disadvantages. But when the minister saw Wang Shao's recommendation, he only knew that after he was irrigating the garden, he didn't know what his family background was. And this time to recommend Han Gang, not only Wang Shao, but also Wu Yan, the judge of the Xiongwu Army, and Zhang Shouyue, the supervisor of Qin Fengdu, after a irrigation garden, can get the recommendation of the three of them at the same time, it is impossible to come by shaving and patting horses. ”

Wang Shao also said in the recommendation chapter that Han Gang escorted the baggage, encountered a thief in the gorge, personally beheaded the two people who did not need to die, drove the people to resist the enemy, defeated several times the thief, beheaded more than 30 people, and his bravery can be known. In Gangu City, hundreds of wounded and sick people are treated without being on standby, and their benevolence can be known. In Qinzhou, he broke the treacherous conspiracy of the western thief, and his wisdom can be known. Although Han Gang is young, his behavior already has the bearing of a minister, and His Majesty cannot be young and light. ”

Wang Anshi is now receiving the favor of the saint, and Zhao Ji regards him as the commander of the division. No matter how angry he is, he will often be persuaded by Wang Anshi. He groaned slightly, and finally nodded in agreement: "Then according to Wang Qing's words." It's just a nine products, and it doesn't hurt to promise Wang Shao. ”

"Your Majesty."

A hint of joy flashed on Wang Anshi's face. Wang Shao and Li Shizhong have always been at odds with each other, and at the same time, they have a deep discord with him because of the promotion of Qin Fengfan's affairs and encroachment on the scope of authority of Du Zhan to govern Xiang Bao. With Li Shizhong and Xiang Bao pressing, Qin Feng officials who dared to make friends with Wang Shao only had a few people to talk to. In the past year, Wang Shao's work in Qin Feng has not made any progress at all, and it is for this reason. However, now Wang Shao can let Wu Yan and Zhang Shouyue, the capital eunuch, recommend one person at the same time, which shows that his situation in Qinzhou has finally opened.

Wang Anshi didn't know the details of Han Gang, and thought that Wu Yan and Zhang Shouyue's recommendation was because of Wang Shao, and it was normal to draw such a conclusion from the existing information, but Han Gang himself must have some ability, otherwise Wang Shao would never recommend him.

For example, if there are many officials today, there are often three or four officials competing for a seat. Candidates to be elected in Beijing must wait for the vacancy of the post in Liunequan, and the newly promoted candidates must go to Liunequan to pay for the three-generation family status. At the same time, there is a time limit, and it is necessary to register with Liunaiquan before the fifteenth day of the first month of the four seasons, that is, January, April, July and October, in order to be ranked. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for the next quarter.

Wang Shao has been in Qinfeng Road for a full year, and he has never recommended others, so you can see how cautious he is. But now for Han Gang, he not only recommended the official position, but also gave all the dispatches, which shows how confident Wang Shao is in the eighteen-year-old Han Gang, or how eager he is for Han Gang's talent.

Through Wang Shao's recital, Wang Anshi became a little interested in Han Gang. A scholar from a poor background, through unremitting efforts, gave full play to his talents, and was finally recognized by high-ranking officials. There are many similar stories in the world, not to mention far away, Fan Zhongyan, who lost his father since he was a child, and Ouyang Xiu, who painted and practiced calligraphy, have all had such experiences. But they gained fame by poetry, songs, and articles, not by Han Gang, but by bravery, intelligence, and courage...... And benevolence.

For Wang Anshi, poetry and poetry were not enough—even though he was already one of the world's top literary figures—the Great Song Dynasty needed talent, not pedantry. The more talented and motivated young people, the better. Even if Han Gang is only eighteen years old, as long as he has a few more years of experience and has served a few terms in the local and capital, he may not be able to become a pillar of talent.

During this period of time, those old ministers and friends who had recommended Wang Anshi gradually came to his opposite, and now his favorite appointment is a young man with momentum. Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu, Zhang Dun, Wang Shao and others who Wang Anshi deliberately promoted, are actually not very old in the officialdom, and they are only in their early ten years. The rancid smell of the ancestral law, many people have been accustomed to it after many years of ups and downs in the Huan Sea, if there is no young people to impact, this Great Song Dynasty will only gradually decay until it perishes. Wang Anshi's "A Hundred Years of Nothing to Do", which sounded the horn of changing the law, is exactly what it says.

The Great Song Dynasty has been fine for a hundred years, so what about the next hundred years...... And what?!

ps: There was a system in the Song Dynasty, and it would not let those shadow supplement officials who were only seven or eight years old join the company, and Han San was less than the age of three, so he could only ask for a special purpose. Okay, the foreshadowing chapter is over, and the perspective turns back to Han San, don't think that he got the lunch.

Today's second update.
