Chapter 107 is meaningless

Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu thought that Wang Jinghui was Han Qi's adopted son. According to the principle of the Censorate's relentless pursuit and fierce attack, Wang Tao would naturally not let Wang Jinghui go after dealing with Han Qi. The son-in-law is now looking for a way out in Chuzhou to realize the Song Dynasty's revival, and he did a good job. If Wang Tao suddenly came out to disrupt the situation, it would not be what he wanted to see, so he agreed with the suggestions of Wu Kui and Zhao Jie.

Although Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu agreed to let Wang Tao retreat from the position of the chief censor, Wang Tao's attendant Censor Wu Shen, and Lu Jing reported to ask Wang Tao to continue to serve as the chief censor, and impeached Wu Kui for having the intention of being a king, counting his five major crimes.

Wu Kui was naturally not easy to mess with. In addition to not coming out at home like Han Qi, he also wrote a memorial with extremely stern words: "In the past, Emperor Dezong of Tang suspected the ministers, but believed in the small group. He rejected Lu Zhi and regarded Pei Yanling as his confidant, and the world called him the secret master. Now Wang Tao held his old kindness hostage and suppressed the good. For example, Han Qi, Zeng Gongliang did not obey the affairs of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the

The stern wording of Wu Kui's memorial can almost be said to be incompatible with Wang Tao. After writing the memorial, he claimed to be sick at home and was not in court. Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu named Wu Kui's memorial and showed Wang Tao the memorial that Wu Kui impeached Wang Tao. In the end, Wang Tao impeached Wu Kui's clothes prime minister Han Qi and bullied the world six charges, which made Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu dissatisfied with him.

Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu gave Shao Kang the imperial edict with a gift from him. He was interested in telling him that Wang Tao was suing him. Shao Kang then said: "The position of the Censor General is to impeach, and the yin and yang are inconsistent. The blame is for rule. Wu Kui's words are inverted and the body of a minister is lost." This made Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu want to depose Wu Kui.

Ten days later, the officials of the Gong Hall discussed the matter on the first day. Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu approved the Secretariat: "Wang Tao, Wu Shen, Lu Jing, was destroyed by the minister, Wang Tao was appointed as the governor of Chenzhou. Wu Shen, and Lu Jing fined 20 kilograms of copper; Wu Kui, as the ruler, impeached the Central Chief, and used a hand-edict to be made internally. He did not leave for three days, and he dismissed the Qingzhou!"

In order to fill the ruling vacant position left by Wu Kui's dismissal of Qingzhou, Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu issued an edict to Zhang Fangping: "Wu Kui will be dismissed, and you will be replaced!" Zhang Fangping refused: "Han Qi has been reporting for a long time, and Wu Kui's dismissal will not be reborn. Han Qixun is in the royal family. I hope Your Majesty will restore Wu Kui's original position and entrust Han Qi with the order of the whole and the entire life!"

Sima Guang said: "Wu Kui is famous for his reputation. Now he has been dismissed for Wang Tao. He is afraid that all the ministers will not be at ease, so he will lead them away, so he will not be able to watch from all directions!" Then Zeng Gongliang also entered the palace to meet the saint and asked Wu Kui to stay in Kaifeng, Bian Capital.

After careful consideration, Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu finally agreed to Sima Guang, Zhang Fangping and Zeng Gongliang's suggestion, took back the order to dismiss Wu Kui, and met Wu Kui alone in Yanhe Palace to comfort him. Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu said, "Wouldn't King Cheng suspect Zhou Gong's evil?" After Shao Kang knew about it, he even wrote a letter to say it, but Zhao Shu had already decided, and the hand edict said, "This is nothing else, those who want to get up and sit and lie down!" The person who sat and lie down pointed to Han Qi, and Han Qi did not come out to take charge of the overall situation. Not only would the Secretariat fall into chaos, but even Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu felt a lot of inconvenience. After dealing with Wang Tao's "Censor-in-Chief Time", Han Qi naturally could no longer decorate his illness at home, and still came out to take charge of the government.

During this period, although Wang Jinghui was in Chuzhou, he frequently received letters from King Ying Zhao Xu, his adopted father Han Qi, and Ouyang Xiu, and knew clearly about what Wang Tao did. Zhao Xu wrote to him to discuss the gains and losses of the government, which was already the homework they both often did. Every time, King Ying Zhao Xu would regularly record the major events that happened in the court and send them to King Jinghui of Chuzhou.

The letters of the two of them frequently travel back and forth between Biandu and Chuzhou, almost reaching the level of one letter a day. Of course, the political situation only accounted for a small part in their letters, and most of them discussed the experiences and experiences of books such as "Han Feizi", "Warring States Strategy", "Laozi", "Mozi", and even the art of war. The King of Ying, Zhao Xu, was surprised that Wang Jinghui seemed to have novel insights on the issues they discussed, which often made him feel refreshed. This was something that Wang Tao, Han Jiang, Shao Kang and others who taught him did not have.

Wang Jinghui was very cautious about the letters from King Ying Zhao Xu. For this reason, every reply was written for a long time before he started writing a reply. He was not in Kaifeng, the capital of Bian, and could continue to influence the most enterprising emperor from the founding of the Song Dynasty. Wang Jinghui naturally regarded it as his first priority. His officialdom was impermanent. Wang Jinghui was a son-in-law, so what if he got the top scholar? In addition, he did not like factional struggles in the political circle, so it would be a matter of time before he launched a political stage. Another important factor is that he did not think that he had it.

A thousand years of experience can control the entire enemy country's reform process, and it requires too much wisdom and skill. Wang Jinghui grew up in the reform era in the original space and time. After more than 20 years of reform and the efforts of several generations, this happened around him. He did not think that he could become a person like the Chinese leader in later generations. He was more in line with his talents as a staff officer to provide some corrections to the ruling class. If he barely became a person who led the reform, he could not guarantee whether he was in harmony and wanted to become a person like Wang Anshi.

Although Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu was relatively experienced and steady, from his ruling actions, Wang Jinghui believed that Zhao Shu still lacked the important qualities of a reformer - courage! His son Zhao Xu had courage in history, but unfortunately he was too impatient. In addition, he met a stubborn old man, although the two were for the good of the country, they caused disastrous consequences. What Wang Jinghui had to do was to make Zhao Xu mature and steady as much as possible, and through his special relationship with him, the future Emperor of Song Dynasty would be more open-minded and his horizons would be broader.

Zhao Xu knew what was the motivation for Wang Jinghui to "win" the top scholar, and also knew that Wang Jinghui didn't like being an official because he hated the complex and strange political relationships. However, it was a pity to keep Wang Jinghui's resourceful head without having to, so he regularly wrote down the plot of what happened in the court and sent it to Wang Jinghui.

Wang Jinghui was indeed very disgusted with the things that happened between ministers, but he knew that this era was probably an era of enlightenment in Chinese history. At least the losers in political struggles would not be in danger of their lives. The most serious thing was to be sent to remote areas to fish, and there would be no bloody scenes such as killing the nine clans at any time.

Regarding Wang Tao's history, he learned through his letter to Han Qi that Wang Tao treated Han Qi very respectfully in the early days, and Han Qi also valued him very much. When King Zhao Xu of Ying had just become the crown prince, the Eastern Palace was first established. Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu ordered Cai Kang to be the secretary, but Han Qi strongly recommended Wang Tao to make him an old member of the Yingfu. Now Yingzong Zhao Shu is still particularly magnanimous in the position of supporting the first merits. As the affairs in the court gradually became straightened out, he was also a little dissatisfied with Han Qi in the Yishu Temple. It was precisely because Wang Tao saw this that he began to attack and impeach Han Qi, and gradually evolved to the point where water and fire were incompatible.

Wang Jinghui was not interested in these, but the story between Wang Tao and Han Qi reminded him of the incident in history that Ouyang Xiu resigned from office due to impeachment. But that happened in history for three years of peace and peace. As a result, after he came to this time and space, Ouyang Xiu had not been impeached yet. However, he still knew the impeachment incident very well, because of the decision of Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu during the Puyi fight, and his subordinate Jiang Zhiqi promoted him also agreed with Ouyang Xiu. As a result, other ministers believed that Jiang Zhiqi was an accomplice of Ouyang Xiu and was alienated. In order to prove that he had started to attack Ouyang Xiu frequently, but in the end, he impeached Ouyang Xiu Weipu to repair the situation. As a result, he found out that it was a false accusation and was demoted to the local area, and Ouyang Xiu also withdrew from the officialdom.

There were too many examples like this in the Song Dynasty, and Wang Jinghui was also very confused about this, and could only explain it by "The Song Dynasty paid too much attention to the spirit of scholars and officials." Fortunately, Ouyang Xiu is still the Right Prime Minister of Shangshu and the political affairs of the Communist Party. It is probably because the Puyi fight ended too quickly and Jiang Zhiqi had not had time to Ouyang Xiu.

However, Wang Jinghui also felt from this incident that his cheap adoptive father might not be the prime minister. Han Qi and Fu Bi's generation of important officials in the court almost reached the end of their political circles in terms of age. At most, in three or four years, they will inevitably retreat. Whoever fills this huge power vacuum will determine the fate of the Song Dynasty in the future to a large extent, especially the Song Dynasty is now on the eve of social change, which is even more important.

Wang Jinghui recalled the history he knew as a reference, such as the current Censor Sima Guang, the Sanshi envoy Han Jiang, the direct scholar Han Wei of Longtu Pavilion, the Hanlin scholar Wang Anshi, and Wen Yanbo and Fan Chunren who were in other places, these people were all famous figures in the Xining period of Shenzong in history. Fan Chunren is still too young and is not qualified to participate in this game like Su Shi. The remaining few were kicked out. Wang Jinghui was shocked to find that they were all from Prince Anshi, and they were very close to Wang Anshi in terms of relationships. Under the illumination of Wang Anshi's huge halo, Sima Guang and Wen Yanbo will be Wang Anshi's main political enemies in the future. Now they are eager to hope that Wang Anshi can come out to do things, so how can they set up obstacles for Wang Anshi in accordance with his own wishes?

"God doesn't help me. It seems that we still have to use our achievements to establish our position in the minds of Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu and his son!" After Wang Jinghui recalled history, he found that the power center of the Song Dynasty would inevitably be occupied by Wang Anshi and others. Even if Wang Anshi did not come forward for the time being, with his relationship with the Han family and the Lu family, Han Jiang and Zeng Gongliang would definitely be willing to be praised in front of the emperor for Wang Anshi, and it would be a matter of time before he came out to preside over the political affairs.

In September of the fourth year of Zhiping in the Song Dynasty, Wang Jinghui brought the princess of Shu to the outskirts of Chuzhou City, where he carried the most important link in his plan - double-season rice. In Wang Jinghui's eyes, China's history is the history of food. As long as the food supply is sufficient and the food prices are low, it is almost the most stable period in China in history. In China, the people can tolerate poverty, but they will never tolerate hunger. All dynasties collapsed in the hungry peasant uprising army. Thinking that the Song Dynasty would frequently encounter various natural disasters for a long time. The difficulties in food supply and the malicious hype of unscrupulous merchants made the Song Dynasty full of bandit gangs rising uprising every year, and the costs of using disaster relief and recruiting wing soldiers are sky-high.

Wang Jinghui thought that he was trying his best to find jobs for the Xiang army in Chuzhou, but the other end of the Kaifeng area in Bian was recruiting Xiang soldiers. In the end, he was busy with nothing. He had to solve the food problem from the root to stabilize the situation in the Song Dynasty internally. He achieved real control of the increasingly large number of Xiang soldiers and brought the national and local finances into a benign track!

At Huaying Academy, Kaifeng, Biandu, hundreds of agronomical experts from this era are working together to compile the most authoritative agricultural books in the Song Dynasty. And as time goes by, more people will join in the future. This is a long-term investment, and Wang Jinghui has thrown tens of thousands of tons of funds into it and is preparing to invest more funds. Chuzhou is the place where Wang Jinghui can harvest the most short-term income. At the beginning of the year, he bought 100 hectares of fertile land and hired a large number of farmers to conduct double-season rice cultivation experiments here.

Among these hundreds of hectares of fertile fields, Wang Jinghui asked people to purchase a large number of excellent rice seeds from Lingnan, Yazhou, Guangdong and other places. He had almost zero knowledge in this regard, but fortunately, he was rich, and the cold-resistant and late-ripening rice seeds were almost all in one go. Special blocks were drawn here according to different types to try planting at the same time, and prepared to see if the effect was good, and then choose the most reasonable double-season rice continuous cropping combination. Today is his last inspection of the results before harvesting.

Although Wang Jinghui came from a thousand years later, his understanding of rice was limited to eating. In his eyes, there was no difference between any variety of rice. But during these days, he often invited farmers from the experimental field to the prefectural government to report his work, and was also making up for this knowledge. Now, except for not going to the fields to cultivate in person, he has a set of nouns in his mouth, at least he is not at risk of fooling himself.

In this era, the rice field planting level has improved greatly, at least at the peak of the planting level of this era. There are less than twenty varieties of rice varieties that Wang Jinghui has heard of. At that time, he almost hit his chin on the instep. Moreover, there have been people growing double-season rice for a long time. It is just a very warm place in Fujian and Guangdong. Since some people have planted double-season rice, Wang Jinghui will certainly not let it go. He opened a generous land price in May and sent people to Fujian and Guangdong to hire experts, and even relocated his family. These people did not disappoint Wang Jinghui. The harvest of early rice was very gratifying. The yield per mu can reach four stones (about 240 kilograms). Now it depends on the harvest of late rice.

A middle-aged man with a low figure and a little thin but very energetic spirit, standing beside Wang Jinghui in a coarse linen clothes, facing the rolling green rice fields, saying something to Wang Jinghui from time to time, but someone next to him repeated it to Wang Jinghui after the man finished speaking. This scene was the most popular among the Chinese. Chinese people still need to wear translators?! There is no way. This middle-aged man was specially invited by him from Fujian to farm at a price of 100% annual salary. He spoke in Fujian local dialect. When he first met, Wang Jinghui didn't even understand a word, but this man named Hong Yu is recognized as a farmer. Here he is a technical leader and no one can replace him, so this scene that made Wang Jinghui very depressed. However, Wang Jinghui was also thinking that Lu Huiqing was also from Fujian. When he met him, would he bring a translator himself?

At first, Hong Yu didn't believe that someone was willing to give him a hundred guan to farm in Chuzhou. You should know that ordinary families could live a very relaxed life if they were fifty guan. This was quite the same as the annual salary of an imperial soldier, while the soldiers in the wing army were miserable, only about 30 guan. Hong Yu didn't believe that such a good thing was hit on his head, and almost didn't use a hoe to beat the people sent by Wang Jinghui. Fortunately, Wang Jinghui's son-in-law was famous enough. Although the local officials didn't know what the prince-in-law was going crazy and wanted to pay such a high price to hire a farmer, they still went to Hong Yu's home to do persuasion work to prove the identity of the person coming. No farmer could withstand the temptation of such a generous annual salary. Hong Yu took his family of seven to Chuzhou north.

When Wang Jinghui learned that Hong Yu was a master of double-season rice and even went to a private school to learn to read, he immediately fulfilled his promise, paid a year's wage in advance to make him settle down, and made a bigger promise: if Hong Yu's double-season rice can harvest seven stones per acre per acre in Chuzhou's experimental fields, he will receive an additional reward of 100 acres of good paddy fields in the experimental fields; if better rice seeds can be cultivated and the yield of ten stones per acre, he will give him all the 100 hectares of experimental fields!
