"You're talking nonsense." Zhang Zai shouted.

"I'm not talking nonsense, otherwise, it would be impossible to implement your well field system."

"Your wings are stiff." Zhang Zai scolded with a smile.

"Teacher, don't you want me to fly, now that I can barely fly, my teacher should be very happy."

"You bastard, but it's going to be so difficult?"

"The land is the lifeblood of these people, isn't it difficult? If this is not difficult, then no one will oppose this official change. Teacher, when you arrive in the capital, you can say anything, but this Jingtian really can't say it. Otherwise, others will surely wonder, how can you teach me as a disciple. ”

Zhang Zai smiled again, but was still a little hesitant.

This is a method that he has been reflecting on for a long time, and he wants to govern the country and save the people. But it was overturned all of a sudden, and he was somewhat disappointed.

"Teacher, let me give you another example, the imperial court asked me to open and repair the Zhengbai Canal, and I got a lot of new arable land. But these cultivated land is used to exchange labor for labor, including the common people and sergeants, otherwise the construction time is too long, and there is no money to recruit people to build it, and the people will complain about it. Although these new cultivated land have nothing to do with them, their original cultivated land will be well irrigated, and the lower fields will suddenly become fertile fields. But as a result, in the past two years, half of my energy has been fighting with them, softly, coaxing, diverting attention, persuading them of their interests, and encouraging them to focus on business in order to obtain greater profits. Hard, raiding homes, killing people. The means have been exhausted, but have these owners ever been willing? Until now, I have not been reconciled! I issued a dew cloth, and the imperial court also issued an edict that all cultivated land in Zheng Baiqu could not be transferred or sold by any means, except for renting, even if there were. The government also did not recognize its contract. However, the following last year was offered a field price, six or seven yuan per acre of land. What does this mean, the transfer and sale have begun in secret! Such. None of the transfers and purchases have been put an end to, teacher. Can you implement the Ida system? ”

"Then there is no cure for the country?"

"Some saved, but it would be very troublesome to save." Wang Ju said that some people compare Zhao Ji with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which seems to be very similar, but it is not. Compared with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Ji has an enterprising spirit, but lacks courage. The ability to control is even poorer, and it is not good at knowing people.

But Wang Anshi thinks of himself as high, and he can't hear the opinions of others.

Some people are still kind-hearted, but they don't listen to them, and even say one more word, and immediately demote them from the court. Therefore, these two people took the Song Dynasty like wild horses running around, and they collected a lot of money, but many people objected.

In fact, Wang Anshi can put down the shelf a little, like Zhang Zai, Xiao Su, Xue Xiang, and Cheng Shimeng, these people can all be used for him, including Ercheng, who Wang Ju looks down on. Even a little smarter. Even Zhao Luan and Zhang Fangping, the two big guys, can help him, and they can also pull Zeng Gongliang into the water as a strong backing.

But think about Wang Anshi's bad character. Wang Ju finally withdrew.

Zhang Zai was a little stunned.

"Teacher, after entering the capital, there are two people who must not get too involved with them."

"Those two."

"Two ways."

"You kid, how do you say that?"

"Teacher, think about it, how hypocritical can you say such a thing as saving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires? In the entire Song Dynasty, including the great monks, were there a hundred people who could do it? ”

"It's hard to do, but it's a noble goal. It's like Confucian Datong. ”

"Datong is a good goal, but there is a reason. Destroying human desire is itself a false proposition, what is human desire? All sorts of **, good and bad. That's what keeps us alive. For example, the weeds that grow in the field also have to survive, so they compete with the crops for soil and space. For example, the tiger needs a lot of food, which requires a certain range of activities, so it is rare for the tiger to be in a group. But wolves are weaker, so they cull their prey in packs. This is all part of the principles of heaven, including human desires. And man is the spirit of all things, so human desire is the most important heavenly principle, just like man, he gouged out his heart, can he live? ”

"You're using strong words."

Zhang Zai and Wang Ju may have some sense of difference between the times, such as the wife and mother fell into the river, who to save first, in the Song Dynasty, this question can't be asked, I want to be disobedient and unfilial!

But there are also many things that are the same, such as one's own child falling into the water, other people's children also falling into the water, and the difficulty of saving the two children is the same, but asking the father not to save his own child, but to save other people's children, that is not called virtue, but cruelty!

There are so many things that can be promoted, filial piety, charity, unity, bravery, benevolence...... Why bother with what people can't?

This principle of preserving heaven and destroying people's desires, no matter from that point of view, is a proposition that can no longer be false. If it is not a big hypocrisy and a person of the Yue Buqun level, it is impossible to say.

However, Wang Ju took into account Zhang Zai's feelings, so he didn't argue anymore, and said: "Teacher, I'm not arguing with words, I'm afraid that they won't be able to do it themselves, but they ask others to do that, or use this to attack others." And teacher, if you want to carry forward Confucianism, you also have to have your own thoughts, always thinking about other people's thoughts, and you are not yet the thoughts of a saint, is that okay? Other people's ideas are just for you to borrow. ”

Zhang Zai was also silent, in fact, he was also suspicious of this Heavenly Principle and the desire to destroy people, and what he opposed was that Wang Ju excluded him from associating with Ercheng.

"Also, teacher, your character, it will be difficult to be in the court at this time, or gild it on the court and ask for release."

"Gilded?"

"Just like the statue of the Buddha, whether it is clay sculpture or wood sculpture, the people are not rare, but if it is plated with a layer of gold, many people will come to worship it soon."

Zhang Zai understood, that is, let him be a Beijing official, with this level of resume, he will be a high-ranking official in the future.

"You kid."

"It's really not good, this chaotic officialdom can't go on, go home and write a book with peace of mind, and I'll pay for it."

"Why are you here?"

"I lost my father when I was a child, and my mother remarried, you and my mother are parents in my heart, why can't I go out?"

Wang Ju didn't falsify this sentence, let him treat Guo as his mother, he couldn't come, but he did treat Zhang Zai as a half-father.

Zhang Zai was a little moved, and he was also a little ridiculous. Wang Ju's extraneous voice is that you are not suitable for officialdom. I have to be a black-bellied person like me to mix with officialdom.

"Why are the officials so unbearable?"

"It's embarrassing, but it's hard to mix, Fan Zhongyan is a miracle. He met a benevolent emperor, otherwise don't talk about participating in political affairs. If you can know Gyeongju, you will reach the peak. But Teacher, we can't leak our conversation today. ”

"I know it in my heart, but the old man asks you, is the country very difficult now?"

"Teacher, don't hide it from you, the court owes more than 160 million." Wang Ju only said this to the two of them. One is Ge Shaohua, and the second is Zhang Zai. Strictly speaking, Zhao Ji has been in power for two years, but he has been working hard for the past two years, and he has the money to pay off this debt.

"So much."

"If you can't make a noise, spread it out, the country is unstable, and the Liao State can also keep an eye on it."

"Han Gong's ......"

"Han Gong has been, but it is not his fault, I heard one thing. Renzong took Han Gong and Fu Gong as the phase, Pang Ji went to Beijing to report on his work, and Renzong thought that he would win people. asked Pang Ji, Pang Ji said vaguely, now they are not doing things, so everyone says they are good. But as the prime minister, you have to really do things, and as soon as you do things, some people will be hurt, and some people may not say that they are better. Unless there is one, buy everyone with the reward of the court. Then people can continue to say good things about them. Then Pang Gong didn't say much. Later, everyone said good things about Han Gong and Fu Gong. ”

Not only now, but also in the future.

Why?

It is not the common people who write the annals of history. It was the scholar doctor, and the scholar doctor got the benefits of Han Qi and Fu Bi. Can you not say good things?

Even when Wang Ju carefully looked at this history in his previous life, he searched for Du Niang, it was the imperial sky, the Gemini constellation, and the famous minister Han Qi Fubi. In the previous life, it was doubt, and in this life it is about to fall. This is 160 million, if it is 320 million, is it the former ancient sage?

Jang Jae was silent.

"So Han Gong has had it, Fu Gong has it, and of course the first emperor has also had it, including Renzong's real inaction in his later years. Don't listen to the rumors outside, strictly speaking, this arrears began with the reign of the Duke of Han and the Duke of Fu, coupled with the dispute between the first emperor Puyi, as well as disasters, which aggravated the arrears, led to the emergence of this big hole, and forced the officials to make up their minds to change the law. ”

"I see."

"That's all the background of the court." Wang Ju said, Zhang Zai is his teacher, and he is also the only real teacher, according to the etiquette system at this time, it is not enough to respect his father, where to go, Wang Ju confessed, but he has no right to interfere with Zhang Zai's choice.

The two walked out.

Guo Shi played with a delicate jade bracelet, saw Wang Ju come out, and said: "Da Niu, you said that you don't accept gifts in your life, and the concubine gave Yin'er a jade bracelet, I should accept it or not." ”

"Master, you're making fun of me. I don't give gifts to ordinary people, but my own parents can still not give gifts, such as the concubine's house, although I can't go back, but can I not give gifts? ”

"Da Lang, what about Brother Sanniu and Sister Niu'er." Zhang Gui asked.

"They went to Hangzhou."

"So far?"

"I'll send you Brother Sanniu to study, let Sister Niu'er accompany him."

"Don't say it, I'm too stupid, and your teacher and I are both worried to death."

"Master, don't worry, and me, when your child grows up in the future and wants to be a rich man, I will support you. If I want to be an official, I will strive to be able to mix more than two grace places in the future, and let one be given to Gui'er. ”

With Wang Ju's current trend, at least he can be the ruler in the future, then the imperial court has reduced the number of Enyin, and there are also three places.

Suddenly, Wang Ju laughed dumbly.

His interpersonal relationship is quite simple at the moment, and the second uncle is also easy to be satisfied, he is respected there, the standard of living has improved, the second uncle and the second aunt are so happy, they haven't thought about asking for a place of grace from themselves, I'm afraid they don't know what grace is now. The Zhu and Li families did not make excessive demands.

But that's it, he promised two places, one is Hu Quan, the son of Hu Qian, and the other is Zhang Gui, the son of Zhang Zai.

Besides, those bigwigs in the court, how complicated their relationship is.

Can you not be in a hurry for this award?

ps: Five more sends, so tired, five more days a day is really not a job done by people. (To be continued)
