Chapter eight hundred and seventeen teeth(1/2)
Whether Han Qi will rebel is definitely not, whether he will support another prince and replace the disobedient Zhao Xu, nor will he change it, but it is hard to say whether he has ever had such an idea. Looking at the entire Song Dynasty, the transfer of power was basically very stable, and even Zhang Dun had not succeeded in intervening. Of course, Zhang Dun was far inferior to Han Qi at that time.
This is what later generations saw in the Song Dynasty. It was impossible for them to see behind the Song Dynasty, but only the previous dynasties were seen.
Therefore, even Liu E, who was extremely strong, was extremely afraid of Ding Wei.
Gao Taotao is far inferior to Liu E at this time. Zhao Xu is just a young man and will definitely feel some fear of Han Qi.
Han Qi's performance was just nostalgia for power. Once Zhao Xu did not give in, he began to fire. With the tampering of history books, if it was not changed, the history books would still be recorded in ambiguously, but some words can still see Zhao Xu's initial care towards Han Qi.
Especially Wu Kui's "retracement".
As Zheng Lang, this time he entered the court, he would no longer sit and watch it break out like he did when he was in charge of the government affairs before, just to establish himself.
But there are many problems. It is impossible for the Zhao Zhen Dynasty to be destroyed or established. The officials and governments have not been corrupted, and the finances have not reached a critical moment, and the momentum of reform is insufficient. Zhao Zhen's character is also destined to be difficult to launch large-scale reforms.
Zhao Xu was strong and had a crisis, and reform seemed to be successful. Zhao Xu himself valued Wang Anshi very much in history. There were many reasons for the failure of the reform, including the imperfection of the reform itself. But there was one thing that Zhao Xu also lost the chain several times and considered it in many aspects. Many Conservatives were balanced in the court, and even silently regarded some veterans holding parties every day in Luoyang.
So Zheng Lang repeatedly mentioned that he should reflect. The simplest requirement is that if he does not create a good environment for himself to reform, he will not be able to succeed later. To be more specific, Han Qi and Wen Yanbo are not excluded from the court, how can he achieve success? This is reforming here and another is pulling the back ladder.
The national economy is one part of the economy of the court and one part of the civil economy.
With Zhao Zhen and himself working together, the private economy is good and there is little damage now. However, if it continues, the private economy will inevitably suffer serious damage.
This is the good side.
It didn't all rot, but the entire system and politics were rotten. Han Qi probably saw that he didn't know where to start. He knew where to start. But it would be very, very troublesome.
I wrote an article, one to support Zhao Xu, and the other to further create conditions for myself.
The year-long period of my life gradually ended, and from the folk to the temple to the public opinion, the voices of calling for my return to the Secretariat have become higher.
Zheng Lang made a statement. If the country has something to do, he dare not not contribute to the country.
As long as the emperor is willing, he will serve the country. But one thing is that the country's fiscal deficit is so heavy that it is unimaginable. In just four years, it was more than 200 million yuan. If some officials took advantage of the national fiscal disorder, they fed their own pockets and borrowed debts in the name of the country. In fact, these debts did not enter the Sansi account book. If this one is added, it might be more. From the time of Huangyou to Jiayou, the income of the bank supervision was not counted as the income of the bank supervision, and the surplus of nearly 30 million yuan was higher, and the income of the bank supervision was more than 10 million yuan. If the income of the bank supervision was added, this supported the huge development of the Jinghu South Road in Guangdong and Guangxi, the river engineering, and several battles in the south.
That is, the combination of inside and outside. The deficit is more than 100 million yuan a year, but I can imagine how corrupt the finance and the officials are.
The new emperor ascended the throne. He worked hard and made great achievements. If he entered the Secretariat and adjusted as before, his situation would be better in a few years.
However, I cannot stay in Zhongshu all my life, which is incompatible with the system. Moreover, I gradually reach old age, and how many years can I rule, ten years, or twenty years? Once I reach the age of seven, even if I can still live, my health will deteriorate. Can I still be as energetic as I am now? Then, if there is anything in the future, the current crisis will arise and the country will be in trouble.
Therefore, there is the latter one, which happens to be the golden age, and can maintain it for at least ten years, deal with some of the country's shortcomings and remove these disadvantages.
This is a very long time, and it will take at least ten years to achieve the results.
The goal of reform is to enable everyone to live a happy life, so that the rich can become rich, and the poor can live and work in peace and contentment.
But what about the beginning?
In ancient times, the great wise son Chan ruled Zheng. At the beginning, the people all complained about it. It was only after three years that he did not pick up the remains of the road and did not close his house at night. The Song Dynasty was even bigger, with a large population, and the situation was more complicated. At the beginning of the reform, it would inevitably harm the interests of many people.
If you join forces to oppose it, you will inevitably be in power and the reform will be abandoned halfway. If you do not make any contribution, you will become a traitor and will be a terrible minister for the ages. If you support it with all your strength and survive a few years, and the reform will be effective, then everyone will benefit together.
Not only will everyone benefit, a stronger country will emerge. The descendants can live and work in peace, rather than being dispersed by the rise and fall of the descendants. If it were Wang Anshi, he would not have the right to say this. Zheng Lang could say it.
No one can match the ability to make money.
And Zheng Lang has always been very fair. Although he hurt some powerful people, he has led more powerful people to a more prosperous road.
Previous experiences were a valuable experience.
Because I have this hesitation in my heart, I have never made any decisions. I don’t know how to choose, please make it clear.
The article is very short, so I will throw it directly into the Gyeonggi Evening News and let everyone answer.
When Zhao Xu saw the newspaper, he murmured: "So that's it, so that's it."
Zheng Lang talked about benefits, and he listened a lot. However, the time he studied with Zheng Lang later was still short. If he had studied for three or four years, he would not have had the current Meng Lang and anxiety. But he finally learned some of it, and this article was published and immediately understood Zheng Lang's hard work.
But the people are different.
Some people have heard of the corruption of the country's finances. More people did not expect that the corruption of the finances would be so bad. A post was released and it caused a sensation. It would immediately have an effect.
This is the case with finances, not only Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu, but also Zhao Shu. Uncontrollable calls, military spending, disasters, and serious waste caused by poor government orders. There is no war in the northwest this year, and under the leadership of Zhao Xu, money and silk were not used randomly. The two governments spontaneously made some adjustments, and the crisis was better than last year, but the serious three redundant still exists, and the country is still in deficit. If there is a deficit, we must find ways to embezzle or borrow debts.
Guan Jian Zheng Lang said obscurely, don’t be afraid of borrowing money, the court will repay it. But have these debts been officially recognized by the court?
Some panic occurred below.
It's not too messy yet, because I'm sitting and watching. If Zheng Lang returns to Zhongshu, all the problems can be solved.
This is the reform that allows wealthy families and elites to support Zheng Lang.
But another point is why this situation occurs, so more people impeach and criticize the ministers of the two governments. It is too easy to find reasons. In the past four years of governance, there have been at least 100 serious handles in the two governments that make people picky. Some officials have a keen sense of smell. As soon as this article was published, they felt that there would be major changes in the court. Some wanted to flatter, some wanted to rude responsibility, and they turned against each other. The overwhelming voices of opposition began from the court and all the people.
With Zheng Lang's support, Wang Tao arrived in Chenzhou and still thanked him for attacking Han Qi.
The Secretariat was preparing to depose the decree again. When Sima Guang saw Zheng Lang's articles come out, he knew it. When it comes to political smell, not to mention Han Qi, even if Zheng Lang put aside his golden finger, he was far inferior to Sima Guang. He said: "Wang Tao is indeed guilty, but Your Majesty wants to open up a broad range of words. He is worthy of his love for Tao, why can't the prime minister tolerate it alone?"
Then he quietly looked at the big guys of Zhongshu, and wanted to come and dream.
Zeng Gongliang naturally would not speak out. Although Wang Tao also said that he was not good, it was mainly aimed at Han Qi. Either Zhao Gai or Wu Kui. Wu Kui opened his mouth, and he couldn't sit still and eat these days. The three words "Sitting and Lying" that Zhao Xu criticized will inevitably make people think about it. Did he do it wrong?
The Secretariat did not say anything. Who would fight back against Wang Tao for the Secretariat? Don’t make a mistake. Wang Tao was one of the former old ministers of the Eastern Palace and one of the emperor’s confidants.
Zhao Xu made the second move.
Zhang Tangying was appointed as the attendant of the palace censor Li. Zhao Shu was first established. Zhang Tangying wrote a letter saying, "If you are a man, you will be your son, and you may be a story about Dingtao to confuse the saints and listeners in another day. I hope you will stop him from gradually." Sure enough, the dispute between Puyi began soon.
Zhao Xu recommended Zhang Tangying, which was very meaningful.
It’s hard to say that I’m not doing well, so I have to do it step by step.
Then he transferred another person back from Sichuan, and Zhao Yan, the real black bread and blue sky, was given the title of the Censorate. According to the past practice, because of the importance of Sichuan, close ministers returned from Sichuan and must go to the provincial government and could not be censors. The ministers suspected that Zhao Xu said, "I rely on his integrity and dare to speak out. If you want to make a big use, why should I have to the provincial government?"
Story, under your leadership, I have destroyed many stories! Go to hell.
Everyone knows how Zhao Yan went on, and with Zhang Tangying, don’t you understand?
When he returned to the capital, Zhao Zhen summoned him and said to Zhao Yan: "I heard that you entered Sichuan and followed him with a piano and a crane. He was simple in his administration, but he actually got things done. Why?"
Zhao Yan understood, so he submitted a memorial to the morality. As soon as Zheng Langli wrote a letter, many people already took this morality. Zhao Yan ranked it first, entrusting it with help, discarding evil and righteousness, removing extravagance, signaling orders, pacifying rewards and punishments, being confidential, preparing for unexpected problems, not counting amnesty, and allowing ten things to be advised. They also talked about five fees, palaces, royal families, excessive officials, military rebirth and civil engineering.
Some pointed the finger at Han Qi, while others were serious about the words, most of them. Zhao Xu was very happy when he saw the latter, and often accepted them. He also advised Lu Hui, Fu Yaoyu, Fan Chunren, Lu Dafang, Zhao Ding, and Ma Mo. They all dared to speak out, but they could not comfort the expectations of the gentleman for a long time.
If Zheng Lang's reputation had not been echoed in Zhengzhou, Zhao Xu would not dare to recall these verbal officials.
There was still some taboo, and he did not summon all the people to recall Lu Hui, Lu Dafang and Fan Chunren, and Han Qi saw that these three life-and-death enemies were recalled to the capital, and was forced by Zhao Xu, and finally presented the first statement. Zhao Xu did not report it, but this time he did not summon him to the palace to comfort him.
Zhao Xu issued a second edict, which ordered Zheng Lang to enter the capital and enter the Secretariat.
Zheng Lang refused to accept it and asked again, did Your Majesty want me to be an emergency minister, or to be Your Majesty’s important minister of regents to govern a wealthier and powerful dynasty better than the Renzong Dynasty? If it was the former, I would go to the capital immediately, and if it was the latter, Your Majesty was not ready. I cannot go to the capital now, although the one year of mourning has expired.
Sima Guang and Fan Zhongyan's grandson Teng Yuanfa took several months to finally list the accounts clearly.
I stayed behind Zheng Lang for a long time and learned some new knowledge, including reports.
The accounts were listed one by one, and they were clearly visible and handed to Zhao Xu. There were differences in the actual situation, but they were more consistent with the accounts in the Sansi's warehouse.
Also wrote an article as annotation.
Zheng Lang said, Zhao Yan said, and some other ministers also said.
Not only are there three redundant blood, but some unnecessary palaces and civil engineering projects, but also new policies are also undermining. For example, if the improved exemption law is Sima Guang in history, it may have opposed it in order to oppose it. Now it is a reform initiated by Zheng Lang. Therefore, the reasons are carefully analyzed.
Originally, the exemption law has been relatively perfect after repeated regulation, but no matter how good the system is, it is implemented by people. In recent years, man-made destruction has become unfair. Either it is inaction or is wasteful of the state's finances. Or it is randomly distributed. The real first-class households are large households with the exemption law, but they are not charged. However, they are forcibly distributed to poor households with the fourth and fifth grades who do not need to deal with the exemption law. Some six or seven grades have been distributed.
For example, the warehouse method, because of the tight finance, there was a large amount of grain stored in the charity warehouse and it was used up one after another, but in the past two years, there were major disasters and temporary allocations. The two tax collection was incomplete, coupled with the increase in border troops, and the use of unscrupulous merchants led to a surge in grain use, which once caused the price of grain to rise. In his later years, Renzong's national water conservancy development and increased grain production, the lowest price of rice in the capital was only 60 cents, but in the three years of Gongping, due to the severe drought in the country, the rice price rose to more than 130 cents.
When they are transported to the border, you can imagine how serious the waste is, even when it is transported to the Huaide Army at its peak, the price of a dou of rice has risen to nearly a thousand people. If it weren't for the New Canal to reach all parts of Hebei, if it weren't for the Sanbai Canal, the waste would be even more serious.
There are also Ping An Supervision Bureau, etc., and these joint ventures have also caused a large number of redundant officials to reduce profits.
The hidden field phenomenon was once controlled. The national statistics gradually approached four million hectares, and to this day, the national reports were less than three million hectares.
In other words, some of the benign reforms brought by Zheng Lang were gradually destroyed.
Of course, it is not only these reasons, but a total of more than fifty disadvantages have been listed, which has become a huge black hole.
Finally, it was said that since the emperor entered the government, he has worked hard to make new progress, and some bad situations have gradually declined, but this year they will continue to suffer serious losses. And facing the huge losses of the court, serious uneasiness has been generated.
Zhao Xu smiled bitterly, just stop not making it public, as it will cause many bad situations if it is publicized.
However, if you do well, it may not be a bad thing. If you do not do well, the country will be even more turbulent.
I was so anxious that I walked around. Whether it was Zhao Xu or Zhao Xu, my lifespan was very short, and this lifespan was often ignored. A capable monarch who was helpless in the face of these accumulated problems in the country. Can I feel good? Can I live a long life if I feel depressed?
He said, "Sima Guang, help me."
If it was the original time and space, Sima Guang handed over the report to Zhao Xu, and Zhao Xu asked him to take charge of these current problems. Sima Guang decisively refused. I want to practice the general aspirations. It is so great and sacred, so you should find someone else.
The reason for Sima Guang to find out carefully does not mean that there is a way to cure it. Just like a cancer patient, he knows that it is advanced cancer, but can the doctor cure it? It is not until the late stage, but also in the middle stage. If it is treated, I don’t know how much benefit it will affect. Sima Guang will not do this Thunder Datou.
Now Sima Guang had no need to avoid this. He looked at Zhao Xu quietly and said, "If you rule, it will affect countless interests. Just the adjustment of these interests, I am powerless. I see that there is only one person in the world who can cure it."
"I know, but I don't know what Mr. Zheng wants."
"Your Majesty, even if Duke Zheng goes to the capital, it will not be easy to govern. If Your Majesty does not create a good environment for Duke Zheng, Duke Zheng will inevitably feel uneasy."
"I understand."
"Not only that, Mr. Han said that he could repay the debt to Mr. Zheng for five years. His Majesty thinks it is OK for five years?"
Zhao Xu shook his head blankly.
