Chapter 600 We Help You(1/2)
"Zi'an, why did you resign?" Zhao Xian said.
"Brother Gongcai, does the imperial system not allow officials to resign and return to their hometown?"
That won't be.
Fu Bi and his friends repeatedly requested retirement, not because the system did not allow it, but because they retired like that. The court would also let them wear some senior officials and a considerable pension. But if they resign like Wang Ju, there would be nothing left.
"Your Majesty values Zi'an very much."
"Your Majesty values me very much, but did I not repay Your Majesty? Brother Gongcai, I know Huachi County and cooperate with Mr. Cai to win. Your Majesty ascended the throne, I offer three strategies to disarm and strengthen the army, and gradually eliminate officials. The Fangchang River Crossing system, including the current silt fields, attracted everyone's attention. At that time, until Mr. Jiefu came to the capital, he almost made His Majesty a national policy. Then he majored in Zheng Baiqu, and Brother Gongcai, if there was no Zheng Baiqu produce grain, how much would the country spend in the Qingzhou Battle last year? Then he presided over the military weapon supervision, not only launched gunpowder, tiger estuary cannon, new armor, improved the divine arm bow, and various knives and vines shields, and offered suggestions to let the court launch the post office reform."
That is what Wang Ju calls the postal system.
Wang Anshi also adopted it. Because there are not many disadvantages and not many benefits involved, it is also a reform that opposes less voices.
Of course, Wang Ju came up with this solution at that time not to make money, but to make the Kapok Sect. Behind the Kapok Sect was the immigration to the south. The only one behind was what Wang Ju really valued.
Although it was Wang Anshi's hands, some new terms for making money were added.
"Well, Kapok seems to be related to me. He came to Qingzhou. It was a great victory in Qingzhou. Brother Gongcai. Do you think I am sorry for the court?"
Zhao Cheng was speechless. No matter which one was taken out, it would be enough for any official to seize his life.
He had no choice but to say: "It is because Zi'an has such a great talent that he should serve the court even more."
"Brother Gongcai, you really don't know that all the ministers in the court have called me a traitor and villain. Who else has come forward to preside over justice for me? In this case, how can I serve the court? I am not Xia Shu, Brother Gongcai, don't lobby."
Speaking of this, Zhao Cheng had to leave.
Don’t think that he is the governor of Yanzhou. Although he will not be afraid of Wang Ju, even if Wang Ju resigns from office, he will not be afraid of him holding him.
Fei'er said: "Officials, he is also kind."
"He may not be kind-hearted. For the time being, he is Duke Wen's person. I will resign. Who is the most embarrassing?"
Wang Ju actually made a dangerous move, and he explained the reason to Zhang Shi. Otherwise, even Zhang Shi would have been persuading him. It would be too intense.
Where can the sects and officials be punished in the Song Dynasty?
Come on, Dasu, look at the whole country who is wronged.
Therefore, what can be stuck in Wang Ju is nothing more than an official position. Now Wang Ju doesn’t even care about official positions, so what else can you use to cling to Wang Ju?
So if someone wants to deal with Wang Ju in the future, he has to think about it. Wang Ju doesn’t care about his official position, but how many people don’t care about his official position? He doesn’t even want to leave the capital, and his official position in the capital.
And this statement is far more than this one...
If this step is successful, Wang Ju can do things with peace of mind in the future.
"Official, what does this have to do with Wen Gong?"
"Don't worry, it won't take long to get the official's edict. If I repent immediately, it will become a huge laughing stock."
But having this person in my ears is not a big deal. Wang Ju thought for a while and said, "It's better to go to Hengqu, gather with his mentor, and teach his son's mathematics."
Zheng Baiqu also has a house, but in addition to the main house, the rest of the house was also used as a private school by Wang Ju. He could not drive out the students now, but if he didn't, he would have no way to live there even if there were so many people around him.
However, the main reason is that his closest relatives went to Hangzhou one by one and were about to transfer to Quanzhou again. Including Yanzhou, there were no acquaintances. So he simply went to Hengqu.
Thinking of this, he called Lu Ping: "Lu Ping, you will immediately take some money and silk to Hengqu and build a few rows of houses for me. Then we will go to Hengqu together."
"Good come."
Lu Ping went to Hengqu first.
Then Wang Ju stayed in Yanzhou City for two days, and led a family of old and a large group of people slowly set out towards Hengqu.
But the camp was blown up in Gyeongju.
Zhang Qi didn't say that, but Wang Ju was receiving Hou Yuanli in the prefecture yamen, and there were clerks and yamen runners next to him. These people quickly leaked the news.
The people don’t believe it. How could Wang Ju force him to resign? He is not old and sick. Is he really a foolish monarch in power?
So they came to the prefecture office one by one to ask. Zhang Feng only confirmed that Wang Ju had indeed resigned from his official position, and no explanation for the others.
However, Wang Ju explained it very clearly in the prefecture yamen. If Zhang Feng didn't say it, the clerks and yamen runners said it all.
When the military and civilians of Qingzhou learned the truth, they were all confused.
The soldiers thought that they had defeated hundreds of thousands of Xixia people who came to invade, not only were they useless, but they were guilty.
The workshop owners thought, this kind of loan assistance is a harsh person. Oh my God, so many times have it been harsh.
The people were thinking that they were not saying that loving the people like their sons was a good official, but how did they become a bribe? Or that the people like their sons are not doing right now, and they had to be as corrupt as Sun Mian, and they were a good official in the Song Dynasty?
What is the reason for this?
Of course, it would be very dangerous if the military and civilians continued to think like this.
Especially in that period of Hengshan, Xixia never forgets it.
Zhang Qi had no choice but to explain to the people that it was not because the official family was stupid, and the official family always valued Wang Ju very much. It was just because some ministers in the court did not like Wang Ju, so they tried every means to frame Wang Ju, which forced Wang Ju to resign from his official position.
This statement was only directed at one person.
When Wang Ju and Wen Yanbo had a conflict last year, he knew that Wen Yanbo would not be willing to do so, so he secretly sent people to promote all the truth, the whole story.
Although he had limited power alone, there was still a group of people who were eager to discredit Wen Yanbo's reputation. Therefore, under the clamor of these people, almost the entire Song Dynasty people knew Wen Yanbo's cowardice after the Qingzhou victory and his famous saying, "To govern the world with the scholars and officials, it is not to govern the world with the people."
At least in Gyeongju, men, women, and young and old know that Wen Yanbo is suppressing Wang Ju.
Therefore, the entire Gyeongju talked a lot, including some past merchants, joined the ranks of discussions.
On that day, two merchants were discussing a prosperous teahouse in Qingzhou City. One of them said: "In fact, there is another way, maybe it can get Wang Zhizhou back to Qingzhou."
They were just talking and playing, but they were foreign merchants and did not understand the mood of the local people. After talking before, a few tea guests on the tea table next door pulled up his sleeves and asked what could they do.
The merchant said, "I will write to the court."
He also gave some examples, just like Zhang Shixun was in Zhishehong County, and the people were reluctant to let him go, so they tried their best to keep him, even blocked him directly in the county town, preventing him from going out, and then wrote a letter to the Transfer Envoy, the Transfer Envoy wrote to the court, and successfully stayed.
Not only Zhang Shixun, but also dozens of similar deeds in the Song Dynasty.
Some people rudely kept the officials, while others kept them while writing.
Some stayed successfully, while others failed.
The merchant told the story one by one.
In fact, it is not as easy as he said. Ordinary Song Dynasty officials came and went, and the people could not control them. Some officials and ordinary people even wanted them to leave early.
Even excellent officials may not be able to block the people's way, block the city, and repeatedly try to keep them. For example, the local officials of Fan Zhongyan did a good job, but many people would force him to keep him? If it weren't for this matter, if Wang Ju left in the future, the people of Qingzhou would definitely be reluctant to leave. Maybe the people who sent them to block the people, causing a sensation, but they might not force Wang Ju to stay.
This is a product under special conditions. It has great kindness to the people. For example, Zhang Kang was blocked by the people and tried to keep it.
Or if the ex is violent and forms a serious contrast, or if some other similar situations occur, this phenomenon will occur.
But the people don’t know, and they listen with relish.
At this time, his companions said, "What's the use? Master Wang has resigned and left Qingzhou."
The man said dissatisfiedly: "At least, I'll give Wang Zhizhou a fair one. Otherwise, the emperor would really think that Wang Zhizhou was still a fisherman, and he resigned and his reputation was also defiled."
"You think ordinary people can see the emperor. Wherever you are, the officials will protect each other, so you can hide it."
"One person can't do it, ten people. Ten people can't do it, one hundred people, just like going to Dongming County. In the end, the emperor doesn't know."
"Dongming County is in the capital, what is this place? Qingzhou, the frontier."
"So what about the frontier? Is it not the frontier of the Song Dynasty?"
It seems that these two people like to argue, but the person next to him scratched his head and asked, "Two brothers, where is Dongming County?"
One of them talked about the Dongming County incident, but they were not native to Qingzhou. Then, while they were carrying it, they raised the head of a brothel in Jingzhao Mansion. One said it was very beautiful, and the other said it was not beautiful.
The Jingzhao Prefecture Tour has nothing to do with the people of Qingzhou. The two are arguing about the tour, while the remaining tea lovers are discussing whether it is effective if they write a letter.
So under the "unintentional" argument between the two merchants, the people of Qingzhou began to discuss writing to the court.
At this time, Tian Bingyi, the owner of the workshop in Qingzhou, stood up and said to others that Ming Gong once said to me, "We are helping each other, I have helped you, and you have also helped me. In fact, we really didn't help Ming Gong. Now is the time for us to help Ming Gong!"
He is one of the nine workshop owners.
Under his leadership, many people began to discuss how to help Wang Ju and how to write a letter. Even some knowledgeable merchants from other places joined the ranks and gave them advice. After all, wherever Wang Ju went, he had great military achievements, but his political achievements were also great, and most of them turned to Wang Ju.
With more people and more ideas, he gradually made up his mind. If you want to help Wang Ju, you must cause a sensation and let the emperor see the real public opinion. You cannot let some "treacherous ministers" deceive the emperor.
Therefore, under the leadership of some famous squire, they organized their own arrangements.
Some people connected in various villages and villages. They found white cloth and asked the people of each village to sign and write. If they didn't know how to write their own names, they asked others to do it. They took their family to press the handprints under the names.
Others organize rural old people. After all, it is the busy farming season, so they can only let the elderly go to the capital to petition. Moreover, it will be even more shocking for the elderly to go to the capital. At least the government will not send people to arrest these elderly people.
Some people found soldiers who were seriously injured and disabled due to the battle and asked them to go to the capital with these old people.
Zuyang, merchants who were deeply favored by Wang Ju, donated the travel expenses of the pedestrians on the way, as well as some pack horses and carriages.
In less than half a month, everyone was ready.
A total of nearly 2,000 elderly people took the initiative to participate in this petition to Beijing, and there were hundreds of disabled seriously injured soldiers. However, the most shocking thing was the petition.
In the household registration of Huanzhou in Qingzhou, there are only more than 20,000 households in Qingzhou, and less than 5,000 households in Huanzhou.
But how many households are there is a mystery, because many household households are not in the household registration.
