This Song Dynasty is different

Chapter 53 Wail

Later generations' evaluations of Wen Yanbo were somewhat contradictory. Some people said that Wen Yanbo was a conservative and a sinner who obstructed Wang Anshi's reform.Some people say that Wen Yanbo was an old man who planned for the country and was the hero who stabilized the Song Dynasty.

But there is no doubt that Wen Yanbo has experienced the four emperors Renzong, Yingzong, Shenzong, and Zhezong, and he can be called a tumbler in the court.Sima Guang's influence on the current situation is far less than that of Sima Guang.

In Li Xian's view, although Wen Yanbo had outstanding abilities, under the general background of the time, he was just a tinkerer at best.

The purpose is to govern the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, not with the common people.These words came from Wen Yanbo's mouth.

Sima Guang came out again, gritting his teeth and wanted to return the territory captured during Wang Anshi's reform to Xixia. Wen Yanbo was also a supporter.

The history is long, and so is the Cai River.

Li Xian stood by the Cai River, looking at the young man in front of him, and suddenly wanted to ask him: Why do you agree with Sima Guang's proposal?
But he ended up laughing.

He is not Wen Yanbo, and he is not in the situation where the old and new parties will fight each other decades later.

At the moment, Wen Kuanfu, who had dominated the political arena of the Song Dynasty for decades, was standing in front of him, very respectfully.

"Actually, I'm not happy to accept you as a disciple!" Li Xian didn't have a hobby of collecting historical celebrities, but Di Qing and Wen Yanbo came to his door one after another.

He even wondered if God was playing tricks on him... because Wen Yanbo pulled out his short sword and said resolutely: "Once a word is spoken, it is hard to chase it back."

"That's all!" Li Xian suddenly had other thoughts.

If Wen Yanbo was no longer conservative as historically, how would the political situation of the Song Dynasty change in the future?

Wen Yanbo is wily and scheming, and the city is extremely deep.And the wrist is flexible but not lacking in toughness.Some people in later generations said that this king was a born politician.

Wen Yanbo resigned seriously, saying he was going to prepare.

Li Xian sat there, feeling extremely ridiculous.

"Mr. Lang, this man is quite thick-skinned." Wang He shook his head, "I'm afraid even the villain's knife can't cut him."

"Those who are not thick-skinned and don't have the courage to speak up cannot be high-ranking officials." Li Xian narrowed his eyes, "Follow him quietly and find out where he comes from and what his purpose is."

The Cai River flows slowly, bringing a message.

"Zhang Quan asked the villain to tell me. If you are single, you will be beaten ninety-nine. If you are not beaten, you will be given one. The Marquis must be aware of the consequences of pushing someone into a hurry." The person who came was a rogue. After speaking, he knelt down and said, "These are what the man said, little one." No one dares to add or subtract half a sentence.”

Li Xian waved his hand and said, "Tell him. In my eyes, he is just a wild dog. A dog should have the consciousness of being a dog. If you show your teeth at me, you must be prepared to have your teeth knocked out by me."

"The Marquis is mighty!" After getting ten cents, the ruffian turned somersaults happily and got on the boat.

When Wen Yanbo returned to Nilu where he lived, his friend who went out to study with him asked: "You Wen Kuanfu was so fascinated by Dingyuan Hou's water-melody song that you said you would definitely worship him as your teacher. Why?" , was kicked out?”

Wen Yanbo said calmly: "If I want to worship someone as my teacher, that person must have talents that make me respect him. I came here just to see the talents of Marquis Dingyuan..."

"See, are you here?" Seeing Wen Yanbo nod, his friend teased and asked, "Are you ready to become a disciple?"

Wen Yanbo nodded, "Exactly."

My friend sighed, "As expected, I am Wen Kuanfu. There is nothing I can't do."

Wen Yanbo went to buy a bundle of repairs and planned to take a shower and change clothes tomorrow before going to the Li family to become a disciple.

"...He came from home and just arrived in Bianjing. The villain found the beggar along the street and asked him about it. He learned that Wen Yanbo had asked about Lang Jun."

Wang He's eyes flashed fiercely, "This person is deliberately approaching Mr. Lang. It can be seen that he has ulterior motives. I will kill him and make sure there is no sound."

"Don't shout about beating or killing." Li Xian shook his head.

Wen Yanbo should still be studying at this moment. What is the purpose of these people deliberately approaching him?

Instructed?

Just thinking about Li Xian makes me feel unreliable.How could someone like Wen Yanbo do such a thing?

So, what does he mean?

Li Xian hid his question and said, "Go home!"

When I got home, I saw Han Wei teasing Laifu.Seeing Laifu rushing towards the door, she stood up and turned around, "Marquis Dingyuan."

"Han Siyan!" Li Xian had a headache. "Are you here to play when you have nothing to do in the palace? Welcome."

"Something's wrong." Vera Han pulled up her slightly wrinkled skirt, "The newest little lady, although her father-in-law is only a seventh-rank official, she is rich. It is said that the family uses silver bowls for meals. Hey! Mr. Hou is so interested in?"

"If I want to make money, the richest man in Bianjing will do my job." Li Xian entered the house, picked up a fan and started fanning.

"Haha!" Han Wei shouted, "Don't say you like me like this, I am like this... The Queen Mother once said that I am not a good wife and mother, and I will only harm men."

Li Xian suddenly sighed, "Please, please bring trouble to me!"

"You are so shameless!" Han Wei hid her face and left.

Walking outside the gate, she covered her forehead and said, "I was coaxed out by him again."

Li Xian was in a good mood after successfully driving away the matchmaker.

Zhang Ze came in and Li Xian looked at him sideways, "Entering my home is like entering your own home. Whose rules are there?"

"The officials have said that the Marquis is just like his own family in the palace. You are welcome to let us come." Zhang Ze saluted, "The officials have said that what made Zhang Quan and others kneel down and whine was just drunken talk and should not be taken seriously. real."

"But I like to be more serious the most!" Li Xian said with a smile.

"Master Marquis, be careful of the dog jumping over the wall!" Zhang Ze relayed Zhao Zhen's words, "Many of those people still have some foundation. Although the good players left behind by our ancestors are gray-haired, they are all murderers."

"I have a guy here who makes a living by killing people, which is just right." Li Xian said with a smile.

"Master Hou just likes to joke." Zhang Ze said goodbye with a smile.

Wang He stood under the eaves and watched him leave quietly.He turned around and came in, "Please give me your instructions."

"Zhang Quan is desperate. He must be planning some ruthless means."

"The villain will be vigilant these days." Wang He said calmly: "The villain is here, so I can rest assured."

It was night, and two dark figures quietly entered Li's house.

The two looked around, looked at each other, and then went to the bedroom.

Oh oh oh!
A dog is whining.

"No, that dog actually made a sound." A dark figure cursed: "Are your tiger bones real or fake?"

"Of course it's true. When I followed Emperor Taizong in his Northern Expedition, I used this tiger bone to scare the shepherd dogs of the Northern Liao people."

"Woof woof woof!" A half-sized puppy suddenly jumped out of the kennel in the yard and roared at the two of them.

"withdraw!"

The two men turned around and wanted to run away, but as soon as they turned around, they saw someone standing behind them.

Under the moonlight, the sword flashed.The man chuckled and said, "I haven't killed anyone in a long time, so I am laughing."

"It's so noisy!" In the bedroom, Li Xian turned over and continued to sleep.

Wang He dragged the two corpses to the Cai River, cut off the heads of each with a knife, then glanced at the night, licked the edge of the knife, "Bianjing is finally getting lively."

……

As people get older, they sleep less. I don’t know whether it’s because they are afraid of death and can’t sleep, or because they have too many things to do.

It was still dark when Zhang Quan woke up.He opened his eyes, his five senses were still awakening, but his mind was instantly connected to yesterday's troubles.

"Burn, burn Li Xian to death!" Zhang Quan gasped, "Hey! What does it smell like?"

He sat up and took off the thin quilt.

In the dim light, he saw two round things, so he reached out and picked up one and held it in front of his eyes.

A fishy smell hit him, and a stiff face came into view.

"Ah! Ah..."

……

Zhang Quan went crazy and ran around in the yard in the early morning.The family restrained him and found two human heads in his bedroom.

It rained continuously all night in the Zhang family's house, but the Li family was particularly happy.

Someone came to pay homage today, and the apricot blossoms started blooming early in the morning.

But Li Xian had something to do and didn't get involved.

"Those people are holding a lot of tea leaves and low-quality grain in their hands and are preparing to sell them." Shen Cong, the Imperial City's Marriage Officer, gloated.

Before leaving, he told another news, "Someone came to report earlier that Zhang Quan found two human heads in the quilt, and he went crazy. I don't know who did this."

"It's probably God's doing, so this man! Don't be arrogant when you are proud." Li Xian pointed to God.

"Who says it's not the case!" Shen Cong smiled strangely and left.

"This is an interesting person." Li Xian also smiled and glanced at Wang He, "You murderer, I usually teach you to kill in a gentle manner, but you turn a deaf ear to it."

"Yes, I will try to be gentler next time." Wang He lowered his eyebrows in a submissive manner.

Someone came to ask for instructions on the finishing of the tea method.

"Tell the outside world that Zhang Quan and others hold a large amount of tea and grain, and no one is allowed to take over."

The visitor smiled bitterly, "Master Hou, those businessmen are only interested in profit! Threats are useless."

"Who said I wanted to threaten?" Li Xian smiled, "When they fall, the highest bidder will get those shares!"

Zhang Quan and others hold a share of the tea mountain trade, and many people are jealous of them.

When Dingyuan Hou's words spread, Zhang Quan went crazy. He jumped into the horse pen and rolled around, eating rough black beans with the horse in big mouthfuls.

Han Xi and others immediately gathered together. Half an hour later, a dozen people who thought they were prominent came to the outside of the palace, bringing their ancestors' armor and weapons, or official robes, and asked to see the Queen Mother and the officials.

"Why is this?" The Queen Mother was startled, then smiled and said: "A group of idiots who are unwilling to fight and disobedient. This is a gift prepared by the boy from Marquis Dingyuan for the officials to see."

Later, those people saw Zhao Zhen.

After facing this group of meritorious deeds, Zhao Zhen felt quite complicated, "Why do you want to see me?"

Han Xi knelt down, and everyone behind him knelt down.

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

More than ten people were wailing at the top of their lungs.

Kowling is like pounding garlic!
Zhao Zhen sat there, remembering that after drinking too much, he said he wanted these people to kneel in front of him and moan.

At that time, Li Xian rubbed his head in a disrespectful manner, and then said calmly:

"it is good!"
