"I know it." Han Gang sent the family members who came to deliver the letter, "Go back and tell your wife, let her take her eldest brother and eldest sister and they will go to Chengnan Post to see her father-in-law first." After the ya, I will go straight over. ”

The family received the order and hurried out.

Although he guessed wrong before, Han Gang didn't bother to think about it anymore. Wang Anshi arrived in the capital before the ceremony, whether it was because he didn't think too much about it, just went according to the scheduled itinerary, or because he still wanted to make a difference in the political arena, and he could know the Tao after seeing people.

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor should have been fasting and bathing, but he would never leave Wang Anshi in the south of the city, and he would inevitably summon him to enter the pair tomorrow - this is the dignity that must be given to the old minister. But in the end, whether to let Wang Anshi participate in the suburbs or not, it can make Zhao Ji die of a headache.

Han Gang smiled secretly, but there was a bit of schadenfreude.

"Wang Jiefu is finally back." Su Song's voice was a little more emotional.

At this time, in the editing bureau, Su Song was sitting next to him, and several editors were in the hall together. Wang Anshi's entry into Beijing was not something that needed to be kept secret anyway, and he said it directly in the main hall.

It was the changes promoted by Wang Anshi that gave the Great Song Dynasty its current atmosphere, when Su Song opposed the new law, and now it seems that it is no longer possible to adhere to the views of the past. Now that Wang Anshi has returned to the capital after going out for a few years, what kind of changes will it bring to the imperial court, whether to stay in the court, or to follow the edict to go to Xiangzhou, it is impossible not to care about it.

"I thought there were still a few days to go." Han Gang smiled and said, "I didn't expect it to be so soon." ”

"Didn't Wang Xianggong send people into Beijing first?" An editor asked in surprise.

Han Gang was slightly stunned, this is a good question. In the past, his family was still in the capital, and every time he returned to Kyoto, he would send someone to inform him in advance, and it stands to reason that Wang Anshi should also send someone to inform his son-in-law, so that he could make some preparations and go out of the city to greet him.

Do you really want to catch the court off guard? Han Gang couldn't help but have such speculations.

……………………

"People are sent, who would have expected an accident on the road." Wang explained to Han Gang with a smile.

After the release of the ya, Han Gang rushed to the south post of the city according to his words. I thought that the Chengnan Post at this time should not be too lively, and most of the officials should wait until the Son of Heaven made a decision before rushing to the door to ask for peace. Unexpectedly, tonight's Chengnan Post was overcrowded, and I don't know how many officials and scholars wanted to see Wang Anshi.

Wang Anshi hung up a war-free card for this reason, claiming that the journey was tiring and inconvenient to meet guests, so he turned everyone away. Han Gang, relying on his identity as his son-in-law, easily passed through the crowd and entered a small courtyard in the inner courtyard.

Wang Anshi, who has not been seen for a long time, is in good spirits, but he is indeed much older, his hair is whiter, and his wrinkles are a little deeper. I just talked to my grandson and granddaughters, and I smiled very happily. Wang Bi and Wang Yi were talking next to him, and when they saw Han Gang, they hurriedly greeted him.

After the family saw the ceremony and talked about their parting feelings, Han Gang asked with a half-complaining smile why he didn't report in advance, so he could be prepared. Wang Fang is in good spirits, and he is also a lot richer, it seems that the life of the grain and material courtyard has not been bad in the past few years, and a few words of explanation have solved Han Gang's confusion.

According to Wang Bei's statement, after they arrived at Nanjing Yingtianfu [Shangqiu], they sent someone to rush to the capital first, but the man had an accident when he was about to arrive at Chenliu and was not lightly injured - Wang Anshi and Wang Bei only learned about this matter when they passed by Chenliu's post station - the injured family Ding was inconvenient to continue on the road due to his injury, so he is still staying in Chenliu County. Relying on Wang Anshi's face, he was placed in the newly opened Chenliu Hospital for treatment.

Wang Anshi, who was teasing his grandsons to talk, looked up at this time, "Thanks to Yukun your hospital, any disease can be treated, otherwise you can only find a master of Xinglin who is good at bone-setting in the local area." ”

"Fortunately, it's in Chenliu." Han Gang said, "Today's hospitals, except for the two in Tokyo, only the three counties of Chenliu, Guancheng and Hakuba have built hospitals in Kaifeng Prefecture. Wait until next year for Beijing, Nanjing and Xijing to take turn. ”

"It's good to be stable." Wang Anshi nodded and said, "Yukun, are you going to set up hospitals all over the country next?" ”

"No, at most, my son-in-law only plans to set up one hospital per road. After all, the number of government-run hospitals is limited, and they cannot replace private hospitals. And once all of them are converted into official offices, I am afraid it will become another way out for the children of official eunuchs to seek official positions in addition to making up for shadows. Han Gang smiled coldly, the morality of the bureaucrats has never changed in ancient and modern times, China and foreign countries, "It is always a little easier for a trick officer to become a regular official than other means, and it will inevitably lose the original intention of studying medical skills." In the eyes of the son-in-law, both the government and the people are indispensable. ”

Hangang only plans to build a small number of hospitals. More often than not, they are still in charge of the family doctors, who provide daily diagnosis and treatment services for ordinary people in the area, and there are also specialist clinics that are responsible for some special conditions - such as dentists, stable mothers and so on. In Hangang's vision, the main purpose of the existence of hospitals in this era should be to train physicians, conduct medical research, and be responsible for emergency treatment in times of disaster, rather than monopolizing medicine.

At Wang Anshi's suggestion, Wang Yi led a few children to the back to look through the gifts. It's a pity that Wang Anshi went to Beijing this time, not to stay in the capital, Han Gang's mother-in-law and Wang's wife and children are still staying in Jinling City, otherwise they can have someone to accompany them.

When they left, Wang Anshi's smile narrowed slightly, and his eyes became sharp: "Yukun, there is something I've always wanted to ask. ”

"Please let my father-in-law know." What Wang Anshi wants to ask, Han Gang knows it.

"I heard rumors in Jinling that the oracle bones of Yinxu were discovered by chance when you were compiling the pharmacopoeia. This rumor should not be true. ”

"I didn't dare to hide it from my father-in-law, after receiving my father-in-law's "Words Say", my son-in-law immediately sent someone to Anyang in the name of collecting medicine." Han Gang smiled slightly, some things will be ruined if you insist on lying, and Wang Anshi is not a person who is easy to deceive, "The opinion of "Words Say", the son-in-law has already written it in your letter to your father-in-law. But without evidence, it's all empty talk. Since the son-in-law said that he knows things, of course, he can't prove it with his mouth, or fight a lawsuit with pen and ink, so he can't fight for right or wrong, and no one will be convinced...... Even if you decide a case, you have to pay attention to all personal and material evidence, so that people can commit crimes, right? ”

"Yukun is so sure?"

To do it in the name of collecting medicine is by no means as simple as moving your mouth and sending individuals. Earth and stone minerals are a major branch of medicine, such as dansha and realgar, which are important medicinal materials that are indispensable in every pharmacy, but if you send someone to dig a pit in Yinxu, once you are caught, no one will believe it if you use medicine as a reason. I also know how much risk Han Gang has taken.

And more importantly, such things as treasure hunting in the soil are pure luck, where can you make your wishes come true. With Han Gang's personality, how could he put his fate on luck? Wang Anshi has a hard time believing such a statement.

"There is no Yin Ruins in the south of Huanshui, and there are Zhou Yuan under Qishan. A few pieces of evidence are sufficient. Han Gang said with a smile.

"Zhou Yuan?!" The king couldn't help but scream.

"It's Zhou Yuan." Han Gang said.

Wang Anshi shook his head, he didn't know what to say. Zhou Yuan, who started from the Zhou Dynasty, and the place where Gu Gongtan, the ancestor of King Wen of Zhou, led his clansmen to settle down, it was really a shame that Han Gang dared to dig it.

"It's too risky." Wang Anshi said.

"But it's also luck, at the beginning, what the son-in-law wanted was all kinds of ritual and spiritual utensils with inscriptions, as long as they spent money, they could always be bought in the hands of the locals, even if there was no stock in the eager, they could also hire the locals to find a way."

Wang Anshi's inquiry, of course, Han Gang could not tell the truth. He didn't hide his head or tail, hide part of the truth, and tell some misleading so-called 'truths' - although this is what Han Gang does most often; Rather, it was a straightforward lie. Replace lies with lies.

It's not that he doesn't trust the character of Wang Anshi's father and son, but the more he knows the truth, the more dangerous it is. Only one person knows the Tao of the Tao is called a secret, more than two people, who knows when the Tao of the Road will be exposed without paying attention?

"It's just that there has to be a plausible name to the outside world." Han Gang continued, "Dansha and realgar are all produced in the mountains and dug out of the pits. There is no ore to be excavated from the flat ground, only the keel, so people have played the sign of buying the keel. Who would have thought that this keel is the key. Han Gang smiled slightly, "It's also luck." Except for the difference in timing, the rest of the things are basically true. ”

Wang Anshi's face was slightly gloomy, and he had mentioned it in the preface of "Words and Words" about luck - 'The heavenly general Xing Siwen also, and Yu praises its beginning'. Han Gang's words sounded like a-for-tat.

Wang, who couldn't interject, was a little anxious next to him, looking left and right, and didn't know how to mediate.

Looking at his son-in-law who was smiling but had firm eyes, Wang Anshi sighed in his heart, the battle of the avenue is not a place to talk about human feelings.

When the atmosphere was awkward, a housekeeper almost trotted over from the front yard, his face panicked, and when he stepped into the door, he inexplicably tripped over the threshold and plunged into the hall.

"Wu Ping, what do you look like?" Wang Bei felt embarrassed, and asked the family who was desperately trying to get up.

Wu Ping hurriedly got up, covered his sore spot and stammered: "Xianggong, Erlang, Gong...... Someone came to the palace, saying that it was an official...... Official...... Official...... The official house is about to arrive. ”

The official family is coming?

This was heard in the ears, but no one could react immediately. Even Han Gang was stunned for a moment, and after he understood it for a while, he immediately got up.

This is in stark contrast to the situation when Han Gang entered Beijing. Zhao Ji can put Han Gang aside for three or five days, seven or eight days, half a month, but he must not do this to Wang Anshi - the new law is still there, treat Wang Anshi slowly, it will inevitably be misunderstood and change the new law - send an envoy to condolence today, and recruit into the palace tomorrow, this is what Han Gang guessed in advance. But Zhao Ji personally went out of the palace to the post house, and it was impossible to guess this etiquette.

Turning his head, he found that Wang was still stunned, and Wang Anshi was already standing up with an excited face. Zhao Ji treated him like this, and it can be regarded as a model for monarchs and ministers to be passed on to future generations.

Immediately following that Wu Ping, an attendant in a purple suit also came in, but it was Shi Deyi, who everyone was familiar with. No one dared to stop this big mink Jue, who almost tripped over the threshold. As soon as he entered the hall, he hurriedly said to Wang Anshi: "Xianggong, the official family is about to arrive." Turning his face and seeing Han Gang, he just hurriedly greeted, "Duanming is also here", and went out of the hall to greet Wang Anshi.

Han Gang pulled Wang Yi, who was still stunned, and gave an order to Wang Yi, who had rushed out when he heard the movement outside, and went out together, in front of the main gate of the Chengnan Station, and nearly 100 officials in the post house saluted Zhao Ji, who had already arrived in person.

Such a favor made the rumors of Wang Anshi's reinstatement spread all over the capital overnight.
