I served as an admonisher in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 68: Wang Anshi came to Beijing, how could he be so slovenly (please follow up)
end of november.

He Tan, the official of Kaifeng Prefecture, was appointed as Zuo Sijian of the Admonition Court.

Under normal circumstances, when an official transfers the position of admonishment, it is a sign that he needs to be re-employed.

Followed by.

Chen Zhizhong, the husband who understood Zhao Zhen's thoughts well, took the lead in presenting the memorial.

He said that there is an urgent shortage of censors in the censorship station at present. Su Liang has contributed a lot in writing "On the Change of a State" and has fulfilled his duties in the position of admonishing the censors. He should be promoted to the supervisory censorship without exception.

Su Liangquan has been supervising the censor Li Xing for less than two years.

And younger.

Under normal circumstances, after he has served for two years, he will go to any state to serve a two- or three-year sentence.

Only those with outstanding performance can return to the court and be entrusted with important responsibilities.

But now the whole court can see that Su Liang has shown his talents as a minister, and the officials want to use him more.

then.

Prime Minister Du Yan, Vice Minister Wu Yu, Hanlin Dingdu, and Hanlin bachelor Ouyang Xiu all presented their memorials and recommended Su Liang as the supervisory censor.

Taiwan admonishes officials for selection.

Those who are recommended by three officials from the capital, have titles above Dr. Taichang, and have the qualifications to serve as local officials are eligible to serve as censors.

No one in the court objected to this appointment.

Even Jia Changchao and Wang Gongchen, two opponents who had always been at odds with Su Liangzheng, remained silent.

On the first day of December, Zhongshu officially announced the appointment.

Su Liang took the title of Dr. Taichang as the supervisory censor and concurrently served as the storyteller of Chongzheng Palace.

The 27-year-old supervisory censor.

Its rarity is equivalent to Jinshi and No. 1.

After serving as the supervisory censor, Su Liang was qualified to participate in court meetings.

After the people learned about Su Liang's promotion, they spread the news very interestingly.

They called Su Liang's promotion: Relying on his father-in-law's strength, he rose to the top of the clouds.

Without Su Liang's father-in-law's counter-reporting, Li Ding would still be on the censor's desk, and it would be difficult for Su Liang to become the supervisory censor so quickly.

As the folk joke goes, if you smile at others, you will also make others smile at you.

Su Liang didn't care about these remarks.

His promotion this time was indeed due to his father-in-law's favor.

If he hadn't had such a clever father-in-law, he might have been in serious trouble this time.

Thinking of this, Su Liang felt that he should buy two more jars of good wine for his father-in-law today.

……

Another day, dusk.

Su Liang was checking documents when a clerk came over and said: "Su Yushi, there is a man outside, wearing a rag shirt and unshaven beard. He looks like a beggar. He claims to be your old friend and is asking for an audience."

Su Liang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and said in surprise: "Could it be that he is here?"

Immediately, Su Liang walked quickly outside the hospital.

After a while.

Su Liang walked out of the courtyard and saw a young man wearing a gray rag shirt, with an unshaven beard and a dark complexion standing not far away.

This young man's appearance looks a bit sloppy, but his eyes are dark, bright and piercing.

"Brother Jiefu!"

"Brother Jingming!"

The two immediately gave each other a big hug.

This person was none other than Su Liang's contemporary, Wang Anshi.

Su Liangxu was two years older than Wang Anshi, so he was his brother.

In the second year of Qingli, they took the imperial examination in the same year. They lived in the same inn for more than a month, ate and drank together, and they had a close relationship.

Wang Anshi has always been unkempt.Now dressed in this outfit, it is obvious that he came directly to Su Liang after entering the capital.

"Brother Jingming, I have read many of your articles, and I particularly like the book "On the Change of a State" that you co-authored with Ouyang Xueshi and Tang Yushi. This approach is exactly what I want. I...I I want to talk to you all night today about what I will do in Qizhou?"

Wang Anshi was excited.

Su Liang smiled and said: "You have just arrived in Bianjing City, why didn't you tell me your name when you announced it just now? I'll help you arrange an official residence first!"

"No, I have just been appointed as the magistrate of Qizhou, and I have a special status. If I give my name or live in an official house, there will be many people visiting, which is very annoying. I can just go back and find a hotel, and wait for Sima Junshi to come to Beijing. , we will see you together."

Say it.

Wang Anshi said excitedly: "I have some ideas about "A Book on the Change of a State" and I have long wanted to discuss it with Brother Jing Ming..."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" Su Liang interrupted Wang Anshi with a smile.

If Su Liang didn't stop him, Wang Anshi could have held Su Liang and stood here talking all night.

"Brother Jiefu, you won't take up your post until next year. There are many opportunities for us to chat! We won't discuss political affairs today. Let's take a shower and shave first, and then find a tavern to catch up on old times. How about that?"

Wang Anshi looked at himself and smiled awkwardly: "Brother Yu is really sloppy like this, so Brother Lao Jingming will arrange it!"

Immediately, the two found a perfume shop (i.e. bathhouse) and went to take a bath first.

In the bathhouse.

In addition to taking a bath, Wang Anshi also trimmed his nails and shaved his face.

Su Liang and he each bought a new cloth robe.

After taking a bath and changing into new clothes, Wang Anshi suddenly looked like a scholar-official.

Wang Anshi is particularly good at speaking.

In the bathhouse, he was shirtless and told Su Liang about the strategies of governing the country. He even chatted with the bath master and asked about the current vegetable prices in Bianjing City.

When I went to urinate, I never forgot to say: "The new law adopted by Mr. Fan Fu is such a pity!"

Just a chatterbox.

This is the second person Su Liang has experienced this unique atmosphere: unlimited energy and full of fighting spirit.

The first person is: Bao Zheng and Bao Xiren.

If the officials in the court had this kind of fighting spirit and thought for the country, why would the Song Dynasty be bullied like that by Xixia and Liao!

Why was he called "the big coward" by later generations!
Of course, Wang Anshi cannot be all present in the court.

It's too noisy, too serious, and the attack power is too strong, it will make the officials angry to death.

Subsequently.

The two came to a tavern, found a private room, served food and drinks, and started chatting while eating and drinking.

"Brother Jingming, when I learned that I was recommended as the magistrate of Qizhou to carry out the reform of the state, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep at all. I wrote tens of thousands of words of strategy, and today it has been reduced to more than [-] words. You Let me take a look at it first, and then I will submit it to the officials!"

After that, Wang Anshi took out the article he had written from the bag.

"Yeah, no problem!" Su Liang said with a smile.

Wang Anshi was also a fierce man when it came to writing memorials and national policies.

His level is not inferior to Su Liang's, and he is best at long speeches.

Immediately, the two started chatting.

Su Liangben wanted to reminisce about the past and talk about his experiences in the past three years. He never thought that what Wang Anshi said was a matter of family and country.

The two of them chatted passionately and drank a lot.

It was not until midnight that Wang Anshi fell into a drowsy sleep due to his limited drinking capacity.

Su Liang arranged a house for him, and then wandered home.

Su Liang also benefited a lot from this free chat.

Wang Anshi's ideas are very bold. If Su Liang had not had two lives of experience, it would be difficult to follow his ideas.

Such a great talent is definitely a good material for reform. Su Liang will never allow this reform to go astray.
