A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

"Refugees? Of course I have seen them."

Sima Guang said: "I see refugees every year."

Every year there are people around Bianliang who cannot survive. These people are ignorant, but they still remember one thing: Bianliang is prosperous and there are many opportunities there.

So once they can no longer survive, everyone will come to Bianliang.

Some of these refugees stayed in Bianliang, while others were gathered and resettled.

"Seen?"

Shen An said coldly: "Does Mr. Sima know how those refugees live?"

Sima Guang was stunned, but couldn't answer.

"Those refugees are in ragged clothes and have blank eyes, like walking zombies. They are just adults. Those children are so hungry that they are skin and bones with only one big head... The look in their eyes makes people's hearts tremble..."

Shen An asked Sima Guang: "Has Mr. Sima seen these? I think he has, but he didn't take it seriously... Why? Because you think you are a god, and those refugees are just ants!"

Sima Guang rolled his sleeves and said: "Absurd!"

But Shen An's anger had already aroused, "Absurd? We are all human beings, all from the Song Dynasty. Why do some people have insufficient food and clothing to cover their bodies? Why do some people have fine clothes and fine food, and are high and mighty? You would say this It is a good life that comes from studying and passing the exam. Yes! It is a good life that comes from studying. But since you are an official, you should take the world as your own responsibility and the well-being of the people as your criterion for being an official... But how many people in the world are there? Are people like this?"

There is yarn!

Just as Fu Bi said later: "To rule the world with scholar-bureaucrats, not with the common people!"

People are just tools, like ants.

"Where's the human heart?"

Shen An shouted and asked: "Seeing the people being in chaos... where is the compassion? Are you numb? You regard the people as ants, so naturally you don't have any sympathy, so you are numb. But you are numb, do you expect Zhao Zhongzhen to be numb too?" "

Sima Guang's face turned livid and he said, "It's unreasonable!"

The people present were all important ministers, and their many years of official career had already made them hard-hearted. No sympathy... that was the biggest obstacle to promotion, so it should be kicked away.

But Shen An was not the case. He said coldly: "Zhao Zhongzhen saw the homeless people crying the day before yesterday. When he came back, he wrote a memorial to give advice. Before that, did anyone give advice?"

No one answered.

There are dozens of refugees, it’s just a trivial matter, who has time to take care of them.

"After arriving at Wenfeng Village yesterday, Chang Er's family... the two children looked pitiful, their shoes were almost useless, and they were so hungry that they were dumbfounded. Zhao Zhongzhen was sad when he saw it... How old is he? You sages have been in officialdom for many years. , naturally if you are successful in cultivation, even if the Song Dynasty sinks, your color will not change at all..."

"shut up!"

Zhao Zhen stopped him and said with a livid face: "Speak carefully."

What is the decline of the Song Dynasty?

Don't you think it's a bad sign?

Shen An bowed and then said: "From the time he met the refugees to the time he met Chang Er's family, Zhao Zhongzhen's anger could not be suppressed. Naturally, he had to vent at this time. But how to vent? The culprit is Chen Min, and such people are not worthy of death. Xi, how about giving him a beating to vent your anger? Can't you?"

The ministers were silent.

Shen An said: "This is a kind-hearted young man. He will sympathize with the weak, get angry when he sees lawlessness, and become anxious when he sees weakness... How can we teach such a young man? Do we need to teach him to be insensitive? Is that good?"

puff!

One of the chamberlains couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and the fly whisk in his hand fell to the ground.

Chen Zhongheng surprisingly didn't look at him, but was in a daze.

Bao Zheng sighed: "Insensitive...well said. Your Majesty, I remember that when I was an official, I would feel sad when I saw the hardships of the people. I could not sleep at night. I was thinking about those people. I only wanted to How can we let them live a good life..."

He said sincerely: "It's just that later... I don't know when it started. I gradually became numb. I was not moved when I saw the difficulties. I gradually slept peacefully at night. Now I think about it, I But he became numb and forgot his original intention of becoming an official..."

Ouyang Xiu also came out and said: "I was an official in Luoyang after winning the imperial examination. At that time, I didn't care about business. I spent all day traveling around the mountains and rivers, drinking and composing poems, watching singers singing and dancing, and staying up all night... It can be said that I am corrupt. I am now. I think back then I was so complacent that my original intention of becoming an official became pleasure and leisure. I was wrong."

He was like a god in Luoyang back then, and Shangguan indulged him and even paid for them to be cool.

Ouyang Xiu could never forget those days, which were often reflected in his poems, but at this moment, he was apologizing with a face of shame.

But who doesn’t like days like this?

Zhao Zhen said happily: "When you are an official, you have to think about why you are an official. If you are just greedy for enjoyment, what good will such an official do to the Song Dynasty? Zhao Zhongzhen... The young man's passion and innocence in his heart are naturally exposed, and I was the same way back then. Thinking at this moment I can't help but sigh."

"Your Majesty is in his prime, how can he be so sad?"

Seeing that he was sad, the officials gave him a few words of comfort.

Zhao Zhen said: "I said at the time that the child was brave and resourceful, but now it seems that he still has a clear distinction between love and hate. I have seen so many people who are indifferent to joy and anger, and I have been numb for a long time. Now I feel it is new. Is this true for children?"

When this was mentioned, everyone was filled with bitterness.

Wang Anshi said: "I am unruly and will get angry when I see injustice. I am pity for you and refuse to take action...but once..."

Wang Anshi gave people a somewhat stereotyped and dull impression, but when he talked about his son, he became more humane, and his helpless look made Zhao Zhen laugh.

"Children are always willful. It doesn't matter if they are young and mature, but they lack fun, they will feel sorry for them."

Shen An's words left Sima Guang speechless. When Ouyang Xiu saw this, he smiled and said, "Shen An, you don't have children, how do you know this?"

Shen An said: "Ouyang Gong has forgotten his sister-in-law."

Ouyang Xiu patted his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, your sister is young, and your eldest brother is almost the same as my father."

He looked at Sima Guang and said: "Jun Shi is an honest gentleman, but he doesn't know that children have their own nature and should not be suppressed too much."

He meant it as a kind reminder, but given Sima Guang's previous questioning, it seemed a bit like sarcasm.

Sima Guang wrinkled slightly and looked at Ouyang Xiu carefully, but the old man's face was sincere, and coupled with his usual sign of being a good guy, there was no trace of malice at all.

Shen An glanced at him and said: "I went to investigate this matter and found that the local officials were behind it. Chen Min promised that as long as he could take over the good land in Wenfeng Village, everyone would benefit...so they colluded with each other and actually sat back and watched Chen Min Min violates the rules to collect debts, which can be called shameless!"

The official administration of the Song Dynasty...ahem! Telling a joke, how many officials did the Song Dynasty have? There are so many things that need to be done to reflect everyone's sense of existence.

Without the cruelty of Ming Taizu who peeled off the skin and made grass, the corruption of officials is naturally blooming.

Zhao Zhen's face darkened and he said, "Check! Han Qing!"

There was anger in his voice, and Han Qi left work to obey orders.

"Send someone to investigate immediately and punish him severely!"

Han Qi agreed, and Zhao Zhen sighed: "Poor those people... It's freezing cold and they came out to fight for their lives. I don't know how they are doing now."

Zeng Gongliang came out of class and said: "Your Majesty, the proper arrangements started yesterday."

"good."

Zhao Zhen looked at Shen An and asked, "How pitiful is Chang Er's family?"

He is becoming more soft-hearted now and doesn't like to hear tragic events or bad news.

Shen An knew about his problem, but this kind of avoidance was a big taboo for the emperor, "Your Majesty, Chang Er's family is outside the imperial city."

Zhao Zhen stood up and said: "I am an emperor, but I cannot let the people live and work in peace and contentment... Let's go and have a look."

Someone advised: "Your Majesty, just let his family come in."

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "Wouldn't his children be afraid when he comes in and sees the majesty of these palace guards? The ministers will be kinder later. Don't scare them."

The ministers agreed and then went to the outside of the imperial city.

Shen An deliberately dragged behind, and when Sima Guang came over, he said, "What clothes do Mr. Sima's children wear?"

When Sima Guang didn't answer, Shen An asked again: "What do Mr. Sima's children eat every day?"

"Come with me!"

Bao Zheng slapped Shen An from behind and then passed first.

Sima Guang's eyes were so cold that he could freeze someone to death. If you kept mumbling, you might start a big feud.

Shen An followed Bao Zheng and said with a smile, "Is Bao Shou still crying now?"

Lao Bao doted on Bao Shou, which made him cry a lot when he was older. After being laughed at by Guo Guo several times, he decided not to indulge him anymore.

"Nothing."

Lao Bao coughed dryly and said: "Why are you still so narrow-minded and unforgiving? Sima Guang's son is gone, and the children in the family were adopted from his eldest brother. With this temper... be careful of enemies more than friends."

Shen An was startled, then smiled, with a somewhat solemn look on his eyebrows: "Mr. Bao, you don't know, most of these friends are acquaintances of interest, most often they drink wine, listen to music in brothels, go on stage and so on. But Once something happens... if there are a few people who can help me, my life will not be in vain."

Bao Zheng turned around and looked at him with more approval in his eyes.

"good."

Lao Bao agrees with this point of view, so he doesn't have many friends.

Having too many friends who are hypocritical will only waste your time, and if you have that time, you might as well be doing something good.

"... After a day out, UU was reading www.uukanshu.net Guo Guo was going to murmur. I don't know if I cried last night."

Shen An muttered all the way, Xuandemen was ahead.

Outside Xuandemen, Chang Er stood timidly with a pair of children. He didn't understand why Shen An gave them new clothes last night but took them back today and let them wear the previous clothes.

When the most distinguished group of people in the Song Dynasty appeared, a small official nearby shouted: "The officials are here."

Chang Er subconsciously held down his children's heads and said, "Kneel down quickly."

He was just a country man, and all his impressions of the emperor came from legends.

The legendary emperor's majesty cannot be approached, even if some people say that the officials are benevolent...

But who has seen that kindness?

The group of people looked majestic and majestic in their steps...

Chang Er was afraid. After pressing down his children, he quickly knelt down and shouted: "Long live your Majesty."

"Long live your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty...long live your Majesty!"

The two children also shouted, their bodies shivering in the cold wind...
