Immunity

When the whole world was at a loss of the order to abolish and exemption within 5 days and the order to re-slave the service was at a loss, a document was placed on Sima Guang's desk - the prefectures and counties around Kaifeng City completed the task on time, and the exemption law in the areas under her jurisdiction was abolished, and the recruitment law had taken effect! Sima Guang was surprised and was so obedient at this moment that he became his commando leader? Read the official document signature - Cai Jing, the prefect of Kaifeng!

Cai Jing... New Party? Wang Anshi's relatives? This is a taboo of Sima Guang, but at this critical moment, it is the best typical example! Think about how the old party responds to even the people of the new party support him like this? Sima Guang immediately summoned Cai Jing: OK! If everyone does things like you, what orders can't be implemented? As a result, Cai Jing gained the second pot of gold in his life, and the old party leader Sima Guang appreciated him...

Wang Anshi sent Cai Jing to the grassroots level, and Sima Guang established Cai Jing as a model. Think about Cai Jing's actions decades later, who should pay for this monster? It is true that Cai Jing was still in the prototype at this time, but Sima Guang still took a look and he did not find a crucial flaw:

First, Cai Jing's character. There are people who are swaying between the old and new parties. For example, Prime Minister Cai Que, who is about to step down, has never been so blatantly rebelled like this. The first step is to take the political foundation of the former leader! But Cai Jing did this! Sima Guang not only does not despise such a principleless and bottom-line behavior, but also advocates what is his own background? If everything is used as politics and achieves the goal as the criterion, then where is the holy halo he has maintained for many years?

Second, Cai Jing's danger. How complicated is it to make the huge prefectures and counties around the capital abolish one law and make one law within 5 days? In the surroundings of the capital where high-ranking officials are everywhere, Cai Jing can avoid all obstacles, quickly deal with all the people, and run his desires at full speed, which reflects an impressive skill! With such ability and such character, Sima Guang turned a blind eye to it. Where is his vision? Where is the huge historical knowledge?

The old party was proud and the Sima Party leader was mighty! It was admirable that 15 years later, and the new party was uprooted. It was really exciting! While they were excited, they unconsciously moved closer to Sima Guang. Among them, only a few people remained awake. They were Su Shi, Fan Chunren, and Han Wei.

Let’s talk about Fan Chunren, the second son of Fan Wenzheng. He has a balanced heart. This rare heart originated from the family tradition of Fan Zhongyan, the first person in three hundred years. Wenzheng’s life went from poverty to high status, from civil officials to military generals, and had a complete life, which also brought him a tolerant and generous and impartial heart. People with this kind of heart pity the people when they were officials, maintained self-esteem when they were civilians, and were always gentle and elegant, and rushed to the forefront when there were foreign enemies. After being passed down to the second generation, Fan Chunren maintained some of his father's characteristics and formed his own style. The Fan family’s characteristics are known to be strong and do it even if they know they cannot offend the powerful and nobles, and they must be loyal to their hearts. Even if they know that they are powerless, they must share their worries for the country. The so-called “When you are in a high temple, you worry about your king, and when you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you worry about your people."

Fan Chunren's balanced mind was aware that Sima Guang's behavior was problematic. He ran to remind him: It is a good thing to abolish the exemption law, but it depends on how to do it. If it is too urgent, it will make the grassroots level mess and the people will be at a loss. Especially those who implement the abolition of the law, if they are not selected well, it will cause large-scale chaos!

To be fair, this is common sense. When Wang Anshi reformed, the exemption law was implemented gradually by him and Emperor Shenzong of Song repeatedly studied it for more than a year. First, the suburbs of Beijing and then Hebei, and then it was promoted nationwide. Sima Guangke was good, and the whole country was changed within 5 days! This level of irritability was simply thought of by a madman!

So Fan Chunren wanted to remind him that anyone who was a little rational would agree. But he was wrong! The old bastard's state at this time must not be measured by a normal person! This reminder was useless, and Sima Guangri ignored it and completely ignored it...

Su Shi was the second appearance. To be honest, Sima Guang didn't expect to hear different opinions when he came up. I thought that Su was a firm old party and fought with Wang Anshi in a flash. After many years, he was the eternal lightning in the hearts of the old party members... But more than ten years have passed, Su Shi has become Su Dongpo. Human experience determines his soul. From the initial small landlord who ascended the sky to the outside world to become a *******, returning to the land to settle his soul. Step by step, Su Shi's view of things is completely different from before. This is also the biggest difference between him and Sima Guang! Even though Sima Guang retired to Luoyang, he was at the top of humanities and enjoyed worship from the world. He never changed his identity. His mind was a pure scholar-official class from beginning to end...

Su Shi presented facts and reasoned, and told Sima Guang about his experience of exile across the country: Whether it is the law of exemption or the law of servants, there are actually pros and cons, and none of them are perfect. To truly measure, you can basically not tell the difference between good and bad, and you only look at which beneficiary class to look at... At this time, Sima Guang remained silent.

Su Shi was full of knowledge and a long passage of quotes came out. Suddenly, he transitioned from two specific laws to the fundamental change of laws. He wanted to thoroughly explain the origin and changes of laws at the original point. For this reason, he started from the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties during the mythical period, went through the Qin, Han, Tang and Five Dynasties, and finally talked about the Song Dynasty. He spoke very well and finally formed a core - laws can be changed... Sima Guang continued to remain silent.

Su Shi jumped violently and felt extremely insulted. Su Dongpo, a leader of the contemporary literary world, talked about things, but the audience actually showed anger and had an unhappy expression. This was a great contempt for his knowledge and style! But I didn't know that in Sima Guang's heart, Su Shi had insulted the greatest historian of the present. He talked about history with the author of "Zizhi Tongjian"? I ignored you, you actually talked about it from the Xia Dynasty, and it was a lot of long-lasting words until this dynasty. You don't know what I have been doing for 15 years, right? Use you to tell me history? Besides, you always say that the laws must change and keep pace with the times? I think you are forgetting your roots. The leader of this party announced the old party's concept of laws and regulations 15 years ago - the laws cannot be changed! It is best if the ancient laws of the three dynasties have been passed down to this day, and the Song Dynasty will be the most perfect society. In this way, you are a traitor, right?

Unfortunately, Su Shi spoke in a lingering manner and kept talking. During this period, Sima Guang's psychological dynamics were ignored by him. Seeing that the Party Leader's face was unhappy, he became angry and felt that he should give the other party an official etiquette class! Su Shi said: When you and Han Qi argued with the old husband of Han Qi about the Shaanxi Sect Yong incident, they were very bad and said sharply. Han Qi was very unhappy, but you persisted to the end. Now that you are the priest, aren't you allowed your subordinates to speak?

In front of everyone, Sima Guang's face squeezed out a smile with difficulty. It seemed that he recognized Su Shi's accusations, but his depressed heart increased dramatically! At that time, anyone who was a little concerned could detect the numerous evidence that Sima Guang had been inappropriate in his words and deeds for decades. The only one who dared to point out in person was Su Dongpo!

Su Shi was quick and said it clearly for a while. At least Sima Guang admitted that he was not strong enough and narrow-minded. But Sima Guang was embarrassed, and embarrassing. The most important thing was to achieve his goal! Even if he admitted that he was embarrassed, he still refused to approve Su Shi's words! On that day, Su Shi returned home with a dark cloud on his forehead, shook his head while taking off his clothes and sighed, "Sima Niu! Sima Niu". Apart from this, he could no longer think of anything else...

At this time, the Censor Wang Yansou, who advocated the implementation of the "Adjustment Law for All Forces" as the name suggests, has both exemption from military service and recruitment, so why not neutralize them and learn from their strengths and weaknesses?

Sima Guang was furious. The censors were in charge of discipline. Who allowed you to controversially discuss national policies? Shut up! Wang Yansou shut up. This story was not wronged at all. He didn't understand why Sima Guang must use the recruitment method to replace the exemption method? I asked Sima Guang that since he advocated the ancient method, there were too many service laws in China since the three generations, why did he choose this controversial recruitment method? The answer is thousands of miles away in Jiangnan...

In Jinling, the news of Sima Guang's rule spread all over the world, but was deliberately blocked outside a small courtyard. This was Wang Anshi's home, and his family couldn't bear to let him know that the new law he had worked hard to create was destroyed one by one. However, the dispute over the law of exemption from service was too great, and it still spread to Wang Anshi's ears.

Wang Anshi was stunned. He said, "Is this even abolished? The law of exemption was jointly established by me and the late emperor. It was promulgated for more than two years. The content was comprehensive and mature and complete. It cannot be abolished easily like this." From then on, Wang Anshi's aging and injured body became worse. He almost didn't want to eat and was silent every day...

On the leap month, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty and the Minister of the Left Pushe Cai Que were dismissed. Sima Guang, the Minister of the Sect, was promoted to the Minister of the Left Pushe. On the 4th, the Minister of the Left Prime Minister of the Shang Dynasty, Lu Gongzhu was renamed the Minister of the Junior High School.

It is said that Cai Que, this top tycoon who has been moving around and has a good time between the old and the new parties, suddenly became in a panic and without any warning. He actually had a big disaster... In fact, he still had some premonitions and made some efforts to save it. He knew very well that on the issue of Zhezong ascending the throne, under the instigation of Xing Shu, he had left the signs of Empress Dowager Gao. This was really not good, but no one took this matter too seriously. Because the Song Dynasty was too relaxed, let alone snatching the limelight, even embarrassing the emperor in person, there was no consequence. But exceptions always happen, and all kinds of miracles are the first time. Unfortunately, Prime Minister Cai won this historic award... and his experience was the beginning of an era. The ending process of his life was the beginning of the old and new parties who fought repeatedly and fought to the death...

The first fatal excuse starts with the funeral of Emperor Shenzong of Song. In fact, the position of Shanling is not difficult to take. First of all, it is a temporary job. From the funeral to the grave, the process will be completed as soon as it is completed. In addition, according to the convention, Shanling Envoy serves as the prime minister of the current dynasty. After the funeral, the prime minister will resign as usual. So who cares and makes things difficult for those who are about to resign? Even if it is his enemy, he will let him go. After all, the officialdom has its rules of the game. Shanling Envoy, the prime minister who retires soon, still has something wrong with Cai Que. The new censors in the old party seized his three major mistakes:

1 As a mountain tomb envoy, he should lead all his ministers to watch over the night. But except for him, all the ministers are there, but the protagonist is gone all night without knowing where to go...

On the day of the funeral, he should be inseparable from the coffin of the late emperor. But he ran forward dozens of miles and then backward dozens of miles. It disappeared for a while. I don’t know where he went? It makes people wonder if he had traveled through time...

More than a month after the Shenzong was buried, he still refused to resign. He did not say that he would not resign as the Prime Minister, but even the Shanling Envoy was always on duty. I wonder what he was going to do?

The above article is enough to convict a crime of disrespect. We must also admit that these three crimes are really not glorious, too dereliction of duty, too rash, and too indirect! But there are other statements in history. On the night of the vigil, Cai Que was indeed missing, but Xiao Zhezong had a record of talking to him. On the day of the funeral, he did not walk with the coffin, and even rode back to the city, what did he do? Some information shows that he had communicated with Empress Dowager Gao. As for what he said, he did not resign, it seemed that he was in love with power, but it was during the Chinese New Year, so should he have a magnified holiday?

In short, everyone has their own reasons. But we have to admit that Cai Que himself was suddenly hit and was not mentally prepared. For this reason, he needs to make up for it! He put forward a very harmonious suggestion to restore Gao Zunyu. Gao Zunyu was the family of Empress Dowager Gao. In the 5th battle against Xia, he killed the imperial dream like an undercover agent of a Xixia man, and of course he received a little punishment accordingly. He was demoted. At this time, Cai Que pleaded with the Empress Dowager as prime minister: In such a beautiful day as the new emperor ascended the throne, even criminals in the prison could be punished, let alone General Gao, the first foreign relative of this dynasty? Let him restore his post?

What a good comrade, think what the leader thinks and do what the leader thinks. Usually, if he does this, even if he first receives scolding from the leader, he will be favored by the leader afterwards... So when Empress Dowager Gao yelled at him at the beginning, he was still not very scared. Although Empress Dowager Gao was very skillful, he revealed some details and inside information in the history of the Song Dynasty that no one knew. For example, when Gao Zunyu destroyed the Western Expedition, Emperor Shenzong sighed around the bed that night, and did not sleep all night, which aggravated his condition. This historical material was made public at this time.

But after that, Cai Que's heart sank. After Empress Dowager Gao scolded someone and made a full gesture, she did not regain Gao Zunyu's official position. This is the key! It means that she will not forgive Gao Zunyu, but will never accept Cai Que's affection! It also means that she has revenge! Until this time, no one knows how much this woman can remember the revenge. Cai Que has to use the price of her life to make a light lamp to shine the true face of "Yao and Shun, a girl" so that she can remind others...
