Chapter 420: The Belle Époque
I wish all book lovers a better era in the New Year. [.
I wish the 200,000 compatriots in the southwest to stay away from poverty, oppression, and war in the New Year.
…………
Wang Ju frowned.
Don't look at Fan Chunren, this question is quite similar to building an aircraft carrier is better than raising hens, but it really has a market in the Song Dynasty now.
There is also Fan Chunren's personality, Wang Ju doesn't want to be evil, this non-friendship has nothing to do with the power of the arts, the latter is a temporary behavior to avoid the enemy, this kind of non-friendship is almost from the depths of Wang Ju's heart.
With this kind of thinking, it is even more difficult to refute.
So Wang Ju thought for a while, and then asked, "Fan Gong, what is a gentleman?" ”
Zhang Zai was not far away, his official position was lower than Wang Ju, and he was sitting at the bottom, and when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows and smiled.
What is a gentleman, Zhang Zai said very clearly when Wang Ju apprenticed, the gentleman is gentle, warm and moist like jade. Not only Zhang Zai, but also Zhang Zai's younger brother Zhang Jian also has this kind of thinking.
According to this standard, that person is a gentleman, not Fan Zhongyan, but Li Xin, Du Yan, Zhang Zhibai, Zhang Zai, Fu Bi and Fan Chunren can only barely be regarded as most of the gentlemen.
But this kind of gentleman is definitely not a gentleman in the eyes of Sima Guang, nor is it a gentleman in the eyes of Fan Chunren. This Fan Chunren really didn't think about it, Wang Ju asked, he also thought about it, and then replied: "The public is greater than the private, virtue is better than the gentleman, and the private is greater than the public, and the virtue is better than the villain." ”
The gentleman in Sima Guang's eyes is not the gentleman in Fan Chunren's eyes at all, virtue is greater than talent is a gentleman, and the court will use these people as officials, so as long as there is morality and integrity. Even if the talent is like Emperor Jin Hui. Also a gentleman. Also want to reuse?
And what is morality?
Fan Chunren is not stupid, in his heart, if the public is greater than the private, he is a gentleman, and if the private is greater than the public, he is a villain, which is similar to his father's idea, but in this way, Wang Ju is not a big gentleman, so he added Sima Guang's gentleman's theory.
"Fan Gong, is Xia Guan a gentleman?"
The gentleman deceived him!
Such is Sima Guang. Wang Ju will not ask stupidly, he can find ten reasons to prove that he is a villain.
It's just Fan Chunren who can ask.
In Fan Chunren's eyes, Wang Ju must belong to the kind of person who is more talented than virtuous, but he is also a person who is more public than private, at least what he is doing now is more public than private.
"You can't be a villain, but you can't be a gentleman either."
"The example I learned from was Lu Yi Jiangong, so he was not a gentleman, thank Fan Gong for being able to evaluate fairly."
Lu Gongbi and Lu Gongbi's brothers all snorted in the distance, and Wang Ju couldn't stop talking about their father, which also disgusted them......
"However, Fan Wenzheng was worried about the world first. The joy of the world after tomorrow also makes the lower officials very faithful. I was in Huachi County the year before last. Need a general to lead the cavalry to attract the attention of the Western Xia people, this is mostly there is no return, Hu Qian said, I am willing to go. Whether it's Fan Wenzhenggong or Hu Qian, the lower officials can't learn it, really. However, Xiaguan has always had a dream, dreaming that we will work together to make the Great Song Dynasty no longer bullied by Hulu, no longer have to buy security with coins, and the border is stable. Xiaguan has always had a dream to let everyone in the Great Song Dynasty have food and clothing, whether it is a peddler or a pawn, or a poor people, they will have warm clothes and quilts and enough food. For the sake of this beautiful era, the lower officials are willing to go! ”
Wang Ju's location is mostly middle and low-level officials.
Wang Ju's voice was not loud, but when the last sentence came out, all the officials around him were silent, and a trace of admiration flashed in the eyes of some young officials.
A solemnity finally appeared on Fan Chunren's face.
After all, Wang Ju said this sentence in front of everyone, which is equivalent to having so many powerful witnesses, in case Wang Ju can't do it in the future, he will be ridiculed by the world.
This is tantamount to a very solemn declaration and oath.
So is Wang Juzhen as unbearable as Sima Guang said?
"Fan Gong, maybe in order to achieve this goal, I will use some methods that are unacceptable to everyone, it doesn't matter, I am willing to go, whether you see me as a gentleman or a villain!"
Zhang Jian whispered behind him: "Brother, your protégé has received it." ”
"Don't praise him, this kid, sometimes I have a headache," Zhang Zai had a proud look in his eyes. In fact, in the past few years, what Wang Ju has done has far exceeded Zhang Zai's hopes for Wang Ju.
"So Fan Gong, please believe me. Then I will talk about two more questions, the first one, your father Fan Wenzheng Gong in the northwest Guangzhi forts, so the imperial court got the plan, after the Song and Xia negotiated peace, it was not that the Western Xia did not commit the border, but many times the border, but the frontline forts were stored in zài, stuck in the throat of the roads, the Western Xia did not dare to go deep into the army, why, once the army went deep, first of all, grain transportation is a problem. In the battle of Dashun City, Cai Gong and Xiaguan were lucky to win, which is related to this article. ”
"Pham Van Zhenggong's fort tactics are conducive to border defense, but Fan Gong, have you ever thought about the role of the country's financial corruption and the role of fort tactics in it? Every time a fort is built, the country has to increase the number of forbidden soldiers, the loss of food, materials and armor, and how much does the country spend every year? But why is there no objection, on the contrary, front-line officials, especially those who have made a difference, are still expanding the fort one after another? ”
"The imperial court is based on prevention, and the counteroffensive is prohibited, that is, the soldiers and civilians on the border of our dynasty can only be beaten, and they have no right to take the initiative to beat people, well, just like the households of my dynasty, the Western Xia and the Liao State, even if it is Jiaozhi, they are all the main households, and our dynasty is a tenant, the main household and the tenants get along, and the tenants are inferior no matter how they fight. This situation of being passively beaten has forced the front-line officials to constantly strengthen their defenses. Therefore, every year, the imperial court spends more than 20 million or 30 million on the military expenses in Shaanxi alone! ”
Fan Chunren inherited Fan Zhongyan's virtue, but whether it was political or military, it was far inferior to Fan Zhongyan.
Therefore, I believe that his words are from the heart, but because I can't keep up with my knowledge, I only asked Wang Ju today.
Wang Ju said that if you strengthen the army, you have to spend money to strengthen the army, for example, the armor must keep up, and the inferior armor must be eliminated and replaced.
This is one of them, and the other is that there is a misunderstanding among the soldiers, and the border is reopened, and the war is together, the country's finances are even more tight, and the people fall into the sea of misery again.
The idea is not bad, but was the Qingli War really fought like that? Does it really cost that much? Was it different then than it is now?
This Fan Chunren didn't think about it, or he couldn't think of it. I can't figure it out.
So Wang Ju used Fan Zhongyan to deal with Fan Chunren. The imperial court used your Lao Tzu's fort tactics. But have you ever thought about how much you need for this fort tactical flower? Make no mistake, it's not the cost of building a fort, it's how much a large number of troops will increase in a year!
But did you do it wrong? That's right, it's also forced.
How much will the cost of the Ordnance Supervisor increase in the future? You Lao Tzu built ten aircraft carriers, don't you allow me to build one frigate?
"Second, a strong arms war is not the same as a war. At that time, Fan Wenzheng was in the northwest and repaired the fort. Organizing the ordnance, training the soldiers, and arranging the cavalry, even Cai Gong and Xia Guan also enjoyed the favor of Fan Wenzheng Gong Yu Ze in Gyeongju, especially the old Fan general Zhao Ming, but Fan Wenzheng can preside over large-scale battles in his life, or take the initiative to invade the territory of Western Xia? Even if the Ordnance Supervisor is established, it will be a loophole in the storage of the reform weapon armor system, at least it can't be like now, half of the armor handed over to the soldiers is unqualified! On this basis. If the country is economically well-off, it can produce new armor weapons in large quantities. Or recall some unqualified armor and replace it. If the economy is not well-off, then the production of armor will not be expanded. Compared with what Fan Chengcheng Gong did in the northwest back then, it is too far behind, and what does it have to do with military generals? ”
Or use Fan Zhongyan to deal with Fan Chunren.
Relieved, Wang Ju sat down.
Fan Chunren's can't be underestimated.
It may be that Zhao Ji and Wang Anshi want to use Fu Bi as a shield.
However, Fubi will not be so stupid, after saying a few words, giving a signal, and then "sick" at home. Fan Chunren said: "Fu Bi is relied on by the three dynasties, and he should put the world first, but the wealth is better than the compassion for himself, and the worry about his illness is better than the worry of the state, so that the Lord is in the body, and both are lost." Fu Bi and the minister were originally kind, and the minister was in the court, so he didn't dare to meet Fu Bi in private, and advised him in person, asking His Majesty to hand this performance to Fu Bi and let him reflect. ”
Don't make a mistake, you are the real prime minister, do you just sit and watch Wang Anshi come and just say a few words without pain?
If you are really sick, then please go home, Dongfu is not a nursing home.
If you are not sick, please take the government affairs into your hands, you can't sit back and watch Wang Anshi come!
After Fu Bi got the news, he had to force his resignation again.
Didn't Wang Anshi say that Yao Shunyu Tangwen Wang Wuwang, Fan Chunren wrote a "Shangshu Explanation", so that you can see how people govern the country!
In fact, everyone is fooling, Sima Guang and others said that the ancients are too far away and too high, we can't learn it, we can only practice the Han, Tang and Han dynasties, but they are not the Han and Tang Dynasty laws, not even the law of Wenjingshi, the second emperor of Han Wenjing is really a turtle with a shrunken head, that's wrong, people are the real Taoguang Yanghui, and they are the two ancestors of the Celestial Empire!
Wang Anshi said that the law of the ancients is not the law of the ancients, but it is not the normal law of the Han and Tang Dynasties, in fact, it is the way of governing the country of Sang Hongyang and Yang Yan!
Therefore, Fan Chunren wrote that Yao Shun did not play like this, An Shi did not spend his talents, wanted to seek close success, and forgot his old learning. Sheyao and Shun know the way of people and the people, and talk about the art of the five hegemons and rich countries. Shang Fa is called Shang Ying, and the words of wealth and profit are against Meng Ke.
Are Shang Ying and Sang Hongyang really traitors?
However, Wang Anshi was indeed fooling, and then he said that Zeng Gongliang was old and did not retreat, and he had lost his integrity, and he wanted Anshi to see his face, but he was the same as Lei Dao, and the old was good at grammar, and now he is a qiē follow. This statement forced Zeng Gongliang to retreat.
He also said that Zhao Luan knew what was wrong, but he couldn't distinguish Anshi, and he couldn't save everything, so he heard that he had a later word, and forced Zhao Luan away soon.
Although he was dismissed from the Tongzhi Yuan, he successfully killed the three prime ministers, which is very remarkable!
However, Wang Ju's explanation made Fan Chunren speechless.
If you want to defeat me, first defeat your father.
"Then why did you insult Cheng Bochun?"
"Fan Gong, first of all, I said the rules, it seems that the Waiting Courtyard is not a place to discuss government affairs, so why did Gong break this rule? Jiefu Gong changed the law, the intentions must be good, don't doubt it. However, I haven't figured out some of the ways to change the law, so I won't agree to it immediately. Su Zhe also wanted the country to become better and let the Great Song Dynasty usher in the beautiful era that Xia Guan said, so although he was demoted to Luoyang due to opposition, Xia Guan still went to see him off. Lu Huiqing is in favor of changing the law, and his intentions are also good, so the lower officials are still friendly with him. How to govern the country, there are a thousand ways in the eyes of a thousand people, you are not a saint, and I am not a saint. You can't just knock down everyone because they think differently from you. That's not a saint, it's a demon. Because even the official family can't do this! ”
"What is a gentleman, when I apprenticed, the teacher deliberately said, the gentleman is gentle, warm and moist like jade, so ancient and modern exchanges, more than the gentleman is like jade. Or what Confucianism calls gentleness, courtesy, frugality, and humility. Referring to this standard, how many gentlemen can I have? And yet so many gentlemen...... Fan Gong, can a gentleman seal himself himself? These people are also considered gentlemen, but ninety percent of them must be added to the front, false! ”
"Fan Gong, I am loyal to the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty, not the loyal Sima Junshi, or you, or Lu Gong, I love the people of the Great Song Dynasty, but a few powerful people and their families. What I want to do is to build that beautiful era for the Great Song Dynasty, not that the poor will benefit the poor, the rich will become rich, and the country will be poor and weak! ”
"Fan Gong, you take your father as an example, that's too high, I can't learn it. But since Fan Gong took your father as an example, did he attach himself to the powerful, he had no position, and only listened to the instigation of others? As for some people who take advantage of this change and unchanged time, they fish in troubled waters, flattering and bullying the upper and lower, in exchange for wealth, sorry, come one, splash one! Fan Gong, these are idiot-like questions, I don't want to explain my doubts to you anymore! (To be continued......)
