But the next day, just after the heavy rain fell, the emperor made a big turn of 180 degrees and announced that all the new laws except the Fangtianjun tax law were restored!

Why is this happening? The answer given by the historical books is the shamelessness of the reformists: two evildoers, Lu Huiqing, Deng Wan ran to the Shenzong and cried and said, "Emperor, you have been busy eating and sleeping for years, working day and night, and finally achieved the current situation. How could you dismiss the new law because of the crazy man's rhetoric? So Shenzong changed his mind, went back on his word, and completely restored the new law!

As long as you have a little basic rationality and use the minimum logical inference, you can know the authenticity of the record of "History of the Song Dynasty", which is known as the Four Histories. Just imagine that even Wang Anshi will be abolished in the face of the most sacred will of heaven, so how could he give two subordinates such a great face? How could it be possible?

So this heavy rain may not exist at all. There are two evidences supporting this argument: 1. After the heavy rain, the drought was not relieved. Whether in the north of the Song Dynasty or in the Yanyun area of ​​the Liao Kingdom, the drought continued without any sign of improvement. One of the characteristics of the history of the Song Dynasty was the supernatural nature of the weather. The previous major flood was caused by Di Qing's dismissal. Lu Yijian, who was powerful in the court and the country, also suffered a few falls in this area. "The heaven and earth are dim, the wind is bleak, and there is no one on the opposite side. The wind is constantly whispering... "The result is that Lu Yijian was dismissed from the Privy Councilor. If this is all true, we can believe it as much as the historical books write. Is it true that Lu Yijian was dismissed from the strong wind and the flood that Di Qing was dismissed from the flood, and there are really instructions from God?

Of course, I can't say: This heavy rain that every generation of historians recognized after the Song Dynasty was 100% gone, it was a lie and it didn't hit at all! I just said: I'm doubtful...

Then the emperor quickly turned around 180 degrees and restored the new law. It looked beautiful. Everyone followed the steps and did what they should do and carried out the great cause of reform to the end...

Sorry! Those who dominate the world are always thoughts, thoughts, moods, and morals, which seem to be empty and ethereal, and these things will change instantly. Once they change, they will never be able to return to the original state! There is only a difference of two or three days before and the mood of the person involved has completely changed!

The founder of the reform and the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi, once again proposed to resign. Song Shenzong actively tried to keep him as usual. This process was another touching scene.

Emperor "Every time you resign, you make me restless. I have been thinking about it for a long time. Something must have been bad for you. Did you suffer a grievance for the Xuande Gate attack? Don't be wronged. I investigated it very carefully. No one instructed me behind this matter." Wang Anshi expressed his gratitude, but his resignation was firm.

The emperor continued to say, "It's not the Xuande Gate's business? Oh! That must be my dear, you see that I'm not a successful monarch, so you abandon me." Wang Anshi shook his head, "No, no, you are very smart and motivated, and you will succeed. And after me, there will be new talents to help you."

The emperor was even more sad. What was the reason? At this time, Wang Anshi emphasized that he was sick and could not hold on.

The emperor immediately became nervous and changed the focus of the questioning, "What disease did you have? You have all kinds of medicines in the capital. I will send the imperial physician to treat you every day. This is a condition that is not available in the south. You should stay in the capital. Besides, the world is just a clue. What's wrong with you when you leave? You must have something unhappy, just say to me." Wang Anshi stopped talking this time and remained silent.

The emperor did not give up, and then moved him with emotion, "I know that you went to Beijing to be an official, not for fame and fortune, but for having talent, and wanting to help the world and the people, and not wanting to be buried in vain. This is common. We are not an ordinary relationship between the monarch and the minister." There are still many more, so I won't list them one by one. In short, Song Shenzong was excited and excited, warm and warm. But Wang Anshi was always like a stone and unmoved...

What do you feel when you see these? Maybe Wang Anshi is really too perverted. The emperor has put his words to this point. What else do you want?

But I personally think that Song Shenzong was also wrong. He was a promising monarch, but he just wanted to be promising. In the process of doing it, he did a very bad job. What is reform? It is a war! For example, Qin Xiaogong and Shang Yang, Shang Yang punished Qin Xiaogong's prince for the purpose of passing the laws, and Qin Xiaogong had nothing to say. Did Song Shenzong do this? Looking at the history of the Song Dynasty, about the promotion and demotion of someone, even if he was just a eunuch, Wang Anshi had to make a big fuss with the emperor every time, and he might not succeed and was always rejected... What kind of support is this? Wang Anshi's political enemies were all safe and sound, building villas in Luoyang with high salaries, holding meetings in small groups every day, and conveying opposition information to all directions. What is this political environment?

From another perspective, the above warm and touching words proved that he repeatedly demolished Wang Anshi's platform, which made Wang Anshi unhappy and made the reform slow progress!

These conversations have made Wang Anshi's nickname - one of the evidences of "Strange Princess": they quarrel with the emperor all day long, no matter what, the emperor has to listen to him! The second evidence of the crime: they quarrel with all ministers, and they do not accept any criticism and education!

This is really a robber logic. Anyone who has quarreled knows: I will only talk if you have a word, and this will only lead to a quarrel. Why are the two factions quarreling together? Only Wang Anshi has the reputation of "Adjust the Lord" and there is no responsibility on the other side? Is it always Wang Anshi cursing alone? It can be seen that when Wang Anshi was given the title of "Adjust the Lord", the old bastard's nickname "Sima Niu" had not yet obtained the nickname, and the lay Buddhist Dongpo had not had the opportunity to personally experience the ruling style of the supreme leader of the literati and official, and did not blurt out the words and curse this three-character classic.

So let’s take a look: 1 What is the relationship between Wang Anshi and Song Shenzong’s monarch? The answer is better than ordinary ones, but it is definitely not as good as obedient as possible!

How did Wang Anshi's name "Strange the Lord" come into being? Is it a derogatory term? My answer is no! This is the basic spirit necessary for reformers who fight alone in the officialdom and adhere to the new law!

Is Wang Anshi too domineering? Even the emperor has to listen to him. The king and his ministers are not well-known, and finally he turned against him? The answer is also very clear. Since ancient times, the emperor has always been just an assistant and a supporting role! If you want to succeed, the protagonist must be a reformer! In this sense, Wang Anshi's so-called domineering is the most basic power!

Only after figuring out these question marks can Wang Anshi have an answer to the reason for his resignation. Wang Anshi is too tired!

In just five years, the reform involved the imperial finance, politics, and military. Every step he took was to be an enemy of everyone, and even had to fight against the little emperor. What was even more terrifying was the suppression of his heart. Wang Anshi was no longer the person who was so energetic that "flying to the mountain, the thousand-hit tower, and heard that the rooster crowed and saw the sun rising. He was not afraid of the floating clouds covering his eyes, but because he was at the highest level."

He submitted four resignation memorials in a row. Song Shenzong tried to keep him for a long time and seemed very sincere, but he finally agreed. Why did he agree? Didn't he want to reform again? No! Song Shenzong was obsessed with reform throughout his life, and tried his best to die young, and never wavered in his ideals. The reason why he failed was not because of his belief, but because of his lack of knowledge and ability.

The seeds of failure were buried when they agreed to Wang Anshi's resignation!

When he thought, letting Wang Anshi leave temporarily would be beneficial but not harmful. First of all, he obeyed grandma and mother. Grandma said so reasonable. "Wang Anshi is indeed talented, but he has made too many enemies. Let him let him go for the time being. If you really like him, will it be the same if you transfer back to Beijing later? You are also a kind of care for Wang Anshi himself." Song Shenzong agreed. The situation is too tense now, so it is necessary to ease it. At the same time, let Wang Anshi go back to the south for recuperation, come back a few months later, and be refreshed and just put into work.

Secondly, regarding the new law, on the one hand, is still being implemented nationwide, and on the other hand, the successor designated by Wang Anshi took over. Prime Minister Han Jiang and Deputy Prime Minister Lu Huiqing. These two are the core figures of the new law. Isn’t it safe to temporarily replace Wang Anshi’s work?

It is indeed very safe, and Wang Anshi was also relieved. In his opinion, the reform has been on a normal track. Regardless of whether he himself returns or not, the new law has formed a scale. As long as the emperor himself is determined, the trend will definitely get better and better... Then let's go!

On April 19, Wang Anshi stopped his prefecture. The family drove lightly and quietly left Kaifeng, the capital without disturbing any official or the people.

He left without admiring fame, and left very casually. But he and Song Shenzong didn't know that the Song Dynasty had lost the last chance to cheer up! The future will be the great shame of Jingkang! The Chinese nation will never recover from now on!

Because they have made great calculations, they still missed a weakness - the weakness of human nature! Wang Anshi and Zhao Xu, neither can truly see the souls of the people around them!

Prime Minister Han Jiang is a very calm and tolerant person. He takes charge of the overall situation, not to ask him to continue the reform cause with excellent leadership, but to stabilize various complex relationships within the reformists. Below him, the smart, capable and capable Lu Huiqing!

Pay attention to Lu Huiqing! Before Wang Anshi left, the opposition had already characterized him as a treacherous person, and even put him on top of Wang Anshi. According to the Song Dynasty, it was him who bewitched Wang Anshi and used super clever means to control Wang Anshi and carried out the Xining reform! In other words, Wang Anshi was just a puppet!

All in all, this is a very worried successor.

Returning to the Xihe battlefield: Wang Shao and Li Xian rushed back to Xizhou. At this time, the city was in a state of strict defense. Wang Shao ordered the army to gather together. Now what to do is attack! But how to attack? When the crowd was in high spirits and everyone shouted to kill Hezhou to avenge Jing Sili, Wang Shao shook his head to object. In Wang Shao's heart, war was never a fight, but an intellectual game. He asked his subordinates: What is the reason why Hezhou was surrounded? It is because they have reinforcements! Mu Zheng and Dong Wen colluded with each other, and behind them there is Dong Wen's in-laws, the rear of the Western Xia Daliang! We will kill directly, and they will siege the city to fight for reinforcements, so why should we kill them? Rescue the city, not fighting hard, they are all their reinforcements!

Under this strategic thinking, Wang Shao gathered thousands of elite troops. On April 8, he first swept the Sifan Jiehechuan tribe, and at the same time strangled the route that Xixia might send troops to death! Then he detoured, crossed Hezhou, attacked Tabai City, and cut off Guizhang's retreat. Guizhang immediately retreated after discovering it, and Hezhou City was lifted. But he retreated a little slower, and was blocked by Wang Shao in the west of Tabai City. In a fierce battle, the Tubo people were killed by more than a thousand people, and the tents were burned by 8,000. Guizhang fled back to his hometown in Huangzhou.

Mu Zheng was at the end of his journey. The day before Wang Anshi stopped his prime minister, on the 18th, when there was a rare large hail in Kaifeng City, he led more than 80 chiefs to officially surrender to the Song Dynasty.

On the 0th, the news came back to the capital. Shenzong was overjoyed and promoted Wang Shao to the bachelor of Guanwen Hall and the minister of the Ministry of Rites. He also ordered Wang Shao to escort Mu Zheng and his family to the capital.

This month, Xiao Su, deputy envoy of the Great Liao Privy Council, came to Daizhou on the border of the Song and Liao dynasties and discussed the issue of boundary division with Liu Chen and Lu Dazhong.

Before Liu Chen and Lu Dazhong left, the emperor wrote an edict in person, warning that "the enemy is wronged and angry, and you will give him whatever you want." The meaning is very obvious. The Khitans are all savages, and if the truth is not reasonable, they will be rough. My dear friends don't have to quarrel. They can give whatever they want!

But Liu and Lu people threw the emperor's words out of the sky. Both of them were hard-working men and everyone was responsible for protecting their country. As soon as they met with the Liao negotiation team, they immediately became in dire straits and died. Both sides looked back on history, traced the source, spread the big map, and bargained inch by inch. A large number of place names such as Huangwei Mountain, Lengquan Valley, Tianchi Temple, Muyang Peak, Meihuizhai, Pingxingzhai, Weishuo Yingzhou border, etc., and finally they all went back...

The Khitans were anxious and had no choice but to throw out their last killer weapon - the watershed! We won't talk about it anymore! We just use the watershed as the landmark and never give up until the goal is achieved! Liu and Lu became popular as soon as they heard it. A new round of fights began, and we will come again! As a result, after a long quarrel, the two sides finally approached collapse and could not argue. At this time, reason returned and thought of a new question - Hello! Brother, ask: Where is the watershed?

Liu, Lu people, look at me, I see you packed your luggage and went home after a while! I still wanted to continue the argument, but the information was seriously insufficient and I couldn’t even figure out the place name. What’s the point of arguing!

After Liu Chen and Lu Dazhong returned to the capital, they found that Han Zhen, who was farther away, had already returned, much faster than them. The reason was very simple. Han Zhen went to the capital of Liao and handed over the letter of state, but was left there by Yelu Hongji! He had never seen anyone. Keep waiting? Sorry! There is a diplomatic policy. The Song and Liao countries sent envoys to each other, and they could only stay in the capital of each other for 10 days at most. They had to leave after the deadline!
