As for Cai Zhizhou Su Zaifang, of course he couldn't afford to offend him. He was the eldest son of Cai Jing, the treacherous minister Cai You. In history, he was a person who could not rely on him.

At first, as the eldest son, he was a person with a good relationship with Cai Jing, but later he was also someone who dared to challenge his father for power and favor. Cai Jing's career was not smooth, and he had experienced many periods of slaughter. However, like a seesaw, when Cai Jing went down, Cai You was the most popular and supported the Cai family.

But I wonder if I will become an official in Chizhou now?

There are two possibilities. One is that after Cai Jing was dismissed from prime minister a while ago, Zhao Tingzhi's prime minister violently attacked Cai's party members, resulting in Cai You being demoted here to become an official.

In history, Zhao Tingzhi did this and was targeted to rectify. As long as Cai Jing's people and policies are all abolished and driven away without any distinction, the politics is chaotic.

The second explanation for Cai You's rule here can also be that he and his father Cai Jing are still in the honeymoon period, and they will never leave the father-son army. In the southeast, especially Chizhou, the basic foundation of the lifeblood of the Qianzheng system, can also be explained by the old Cai Xiangye who puts his son here during the special period.

Su Zaifang knew that Cai You would come today and was prepared in advance, so he took out a policy statement in his sleeve and handed it over: "The magistrate, this is a lot of observations and thoughts since the student went to Chizhou. Some of his experiences, hearings and suggestions on Chizhou should be given guidance."

Cai You was a little annoyed, thinking that you, a playboy, were studying here, clearly for Zhang Ji? and my daughter, and I thought others didn't know.

However, for the sake of face, this place is a college. These literary scholars and students do like to do this, and the dynasty also had such a tradition, so Cai You had to reluctantly take it over.

After casually looking through two pages, Cai You couldn't help but frown.

After looking at three more pages, Cai You said carelessly, "Is this Mr. Su's advice to the prefecture yamen?"

Su Zaifang also felt something was wrong, but when he thought that this was his precious daughter's idea, there were rumors in the court that Cai You and Cai Jing and his son had differences and heart problems with each other?

Su Zaifang continued to bite the bullet and said, "The magistrate and the ministers clearly believe that there are many mountain villages under the jurisdiction of Chizhou. Now it has reached a blatant level, which has greatly affected the economy and people's livelihood of Chizhou. If this problem is not solved, it will also be unfavorable to the reputation of the magistrate and the ministers as an official..."

Cai You said carelessly: "Do you think the reputation and political achievements of this state need to be maintained by this?"

"That's natural. As an official, one needs to benefit one's side. This is what my grandfather often talks about." Su Zaifang was very confident.

Cai You didn't agree, and thought for a while and asked in a low voice: "So Mr. Su is an official in the court, and the entire Song Dynasty is full of parodies, and there are even more gangs in the city. According to this inference, Mr. Su's political achievements and reputation have been affected?"

"Well..." Su Zaifang was a little embarrassed, "How can the magistrate explain this?"

Cai You said lightly: "The state is sick, and this is clearer than your grandfather. Speaking of this responsibility, this state is really not greater than your grandfather's. If you are sick, you have to take medicine. I know that even strong medicine is OK, but this state wants to ask, how do you know that your medical theory is correct? Besides, you are just a general discussion by scholars, and you don't even have any details of the prescription."

After all, he was a young man who was very angry and a real scholarly spirit. Based on the status and environment of the literati in this era, he heard that he had brought Grandpa Wenzong in to take responsibility together. Su Zaifang said unhappily: "The magistrate is a fallacy. Chizhou is under your rule. The court was ruled by your father, Lao Cai, and the law was ruled by the law. If this bandit in the world can be counted as the leader of my Su family?"

Cai You still has a good manners, pointing at his nose and smiling hard, "Scholars are so arrogant. In fact, I have experienced such a period as you, so it's better not to talk about it now."

"It is related to the reputation of the Su family, why can we not explain it clearly?" Su Zaifang said.

Cai You had to frown and said, "Zhao Tingzhi was his father who stood up. After he got the power, he abandoned his father's policies and quickly turned to cause political chaos, and the officials were at a loss. On this issue, we dare not say that your Su family was the initiator, but Zhao Tingzhi's husband was indeed encouraged by Mr. Su, and he had the right to speak and confidence, so he took his father's policies into full swing. The chaos in the administration also arose."

Su Zaifang was dissatisfied, "Old Cai Xiangye's policy is wrong, which has caused the state to become terminally ill. Why can't we make trouble right?"

Cai You said: "Then we must first judge who is right and who is in chaos? My father's policy is not happy with the state. The root cause is that my father's continuous use of military force has caused internal weakness. At this moment, we need to work together, tight outside and loose inside. This has indeed indulged in relatively corrupt administration, and because of the years of military use, the source of money, grain and soldiers has been empty. In a closer manner, gangs and parodies have brutal breeding."

"It is a question of whether to suppress the inside or to calm the outside world, and it needs to be chosen. I won't talk about my father's character and ethics for now. He chose to be loose inside and tight outside. His choice is not to say that he is right in this state. But I dare to say that you have consistently inherited the ideas of Sima Guang and others for seeking and cedeing from the outside, and it is also wrong to strictly regulate ethics and education inside."

"..." Su Zaifang was a little embarrassed again.

Cai You continued: "Policies require continuity, not that Sima Guang's model of masters and Taoism is really not good. The problem is that I took my father's route for a long time, but you can't get around by yourself, but they bewitched Zhao Tingzhi's direction and clearance without any questions or unreasonableness. Whenever my father's people and politics are all in one size fits the same size, the time is completely unsuitable, and in the context of external wars, the situation of insufficient money and food, the government officials who are familiar with the people of the region are like changing tableware."

"When you are completely unfamiliar with the people's conditions and government affairs, whenever the consul appointed by Zhao Tingzhi is in the spirit of the old Zhao Gong, he is leaping forward and exaggerated. If you scholars don't know what this means, then this state will take this as today's argument and use it as a theory."

Cai You spoke completely without any scruples at this time, "Bandits are bandits. The root cause of the problem is that when you are not able to solve the cancer, you have to stab him. After destroying the balance, you did not kill the deadly disciples. He counterattacked, and Zhao Tingzhi, who could not solve it, retreated. After the order was chaotic, both the government merchants and the people were harassed and robbed. The financial and tax productivity was greatly affected, resulting in fewer people who could support money and grain, which made it worse, and more people joined the parody."

"If Zhao Tingzhi had the ability to continue to maintain this policy, if his corrupt Confucian Party had the ability to continue to maintain Zhao Tingzhi in that temple, then this state would not dare to say that the bandit suppression was wrong. The problem was that he came up and stabbed a few times, and after causing a mess, he had no further information. He listened to his instructions that the inexperienced consuls patted his butt and went back to Beijing for tea."

"Although the group of consuls who were familiar with the people's sentiments came back, they were troubled after purging and fighting the purge and purge. Their enthusiasm for doing things has been greatly reduced, and they faced a larger scale and annoyed counterfeit bandits. How to rule is a problem, and how to ensure the money and food for foreign troops is also a problem."

"Zhao Tingzhi's policy at first glance is fine. The Song Dynasty is the ruler, and he is a soldier to catch thieves. But because of his one-size-fits-all struggle, both the officials and the bandits have lost patience step by step. The bandits have gradually seen the incompetence and weakness of the government. If this threshold cannot be passed, then the state asserted here that there will inevitably be a large number of bandits in a few years, and even a large-scale rebellion."
