In the Song Dynasty, there was no law or order.

Chapter 10 The world is not black and white (please vote)

It was still magical when Zhao Jun traveled through time.

It was also raining heavily at that time, and there were guards on duty under the corridor in the back garden.

As a result, there was a thunderbolt in the sky, and several guards saw that there was originally a piece of grass in front of the Qincan Palace.

Then another bolt of lightning struck and hit the ground. Among the lightning and flint, a guard vaguely noticed a figure in the open space.

The guard thought it was an hallucination, and immediately asked his colleagues nearby. It turned out that the colleagues had also seen it, and then they knew that something big had happened. So they approached with an umbrella and a torch, and confirmed that a person had appeared out of thin air.

What happened next was that the guards reported it to Zhao Zhen. It was already two or three o'clock in the middle of the night. Zhao Zhen had just gotten up and was preparing to go to the morning court. Suddenly he heard about this and came over to take a look. Because he couldn't make up his mind, he sent the three-phase report to Zhao Zhen. San Shen called over to discuss it together.

So the scene before Zhao Jun woke up appeared.

Yan Shu told Fan Zhongyan the whole story, and finally told many things that Zhao Jun said, such as the official family having no heirs, Zhao Yuanhao's imminent founding of the country, and the failure of Fan Zhongyan's Qingli New Deal reform, etc.

A series of words shocked Fan Zhongyan speechless. After digesting everything, he raised his hand to Zhao Zhen with difficulty and said, "Your Majesty, I want to see that person."

"See you, okay."

Zhao Zhen looked at him and said: "That man always thought that he was in Nini Village where the support teacher is located. You must not say anything to make him suspicious. Uncle Tong will guide him in everything."

"yes."

Fan Zhongyan cupped his hands and said.

"Walk."

Zhao Zhen got up from the Taishi chair and drove to the back garden.

Zhao Zhen now lives in Houyuan.

In the slanting wind and drizzle, the group of people, including Fan Zhongyan, all headed towards the back garden with their own thoughts.

Soon they arrived at the courtyard next to the Guanjia Hall where Zhao Jun was in the back garden, and Yan Shu pushed the door open and entered.

"Uncle Lari, where have you been?"

As soon as he entered, Zhao Jun shouted: "I just finished telling you about the Baiguan Tu. Why did you run away? The door was closed by me. I still want to sit at the door."

Yan Shu found an excuse and said, "I just remembered that the pot was still on the stove and I almost burned it."

"It's good that it's not burning."

Zhao Jun hurriedly expressed relief. He knew that he couldn't go down the mountain now and the pot was very important, so he didn't complain anymore. Instead, he said: "It's too boring to stay in the room every day. Even if you can't go to the village, let me be at the door." It’s good to sit down and get some fresh air.”

Yan Shu patiently advised: "Your eyes are inconvenient now, and I can't take care of you at any time. What should you do if you get bumped? It's better to listen to the doctor and rest your eyes and body injuries before moving around."

"All right."

Zhao Jun muttered: "Even though we can't contact the organization now, I didn't tell my parents that I was safe, just because I was afraid that they would be worried."

"It's okay. The government will build the roads and power lines soon."

Yan Shu very smartly began to use the new vocabulary he learned from Zhao Jun. He knew that this way Zhao Jun would be less suspicious.

Now Zhao Jun is indeed not suspicious. Yan Shu deliberately used the blunt Southwest Mandarin in accent, which is very similar to the blunt Mandarin of the local Yi people. Moreover, Zhao Jun himself does not understand the local language, so he only thinks it is similar.

The food is all buckwheat, which is commonly eaten by the Yi people. Although potatoes are missing, I can barely pass it by using the excuse that it has been raining every day recently and the humidity in the air has caused the potatoes to sprout.

As for the problems with electricity and landline, Zhao Jun was speechless because the line was disconnected due to heavy rain.

The only problem may be that Zhao Jun occasionally gets out of bed and walks around the house. When he groped for the wall, he found that the wall was actually made of wood, and the surface was very smooth, as if it had been waxed.

There were no cobwebs or dust that were common in rural wooden houses. It was completely unlike the rammed earth walls he had seen when he went to Liangshan.

Could it be that the old village chief embezzled the village’s poverty alleviation funds and renovated his own house?

He was still thinking.

But anyway, Zhao Jun must have never dreamed that he had traveled through time.

After all, you can fantasize about this kind of thing after reading novels, but in reality, when you are blind and unable to see, no one who wants to break his head will suddenly think that he has traveled to another world.

Zhao Jun sat cross-legged on the bed and sighed: "Uncle Lari, is there no one else in your family? You only bring me meals three times a day, and the doctor doesn't speak every time. I'm so bored."

Yan Shu knew that the opportunity had come and immediately said: "Then just continue to tell me about history."

"correct."

Zhao Jun suddenly laughed and said: "I haven't told today's Song Dynasty joke yet. Uncle Lari, listen up. Question: Which country is the richest in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties? Answer: The Song Dynasty. It has been paying compensation for hundreds of years, but it has not paid compensation yet. Light."

Fan Zhongyan's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were horrified. He looked around and saw that Zhao Zhen and Lu Yijian's faces were as usual. He suppressed the shock in his heart and remained silent.

After a few days, Zhao Zhen was almost immune. If Zhao Jun suddenly stopped scolding his Da Song, he would feel itchy in his heart.

However, Yan Shu was still a little unhappy and said: "Teacher Zhao, you said before that the Qing Dynasty also ceded land to pay compensation, why do you keep talking about the Song Dynasty?"

"The Qing Dynasty was really bad, but it was also in the middle and late Qing Dynasty. The Song Dynasty was always pulling. There was such a thing as the Chanyuan Alliance, which won the Battle of Chanzhou and then signed reparations to the defeated country. It is simply unheard of."

"Okay. Then continue talking about Lu Yijian and Fan Zhongyan."

"Uncle Lari, I found that you have always been interested in the Renzong Dynasty. Why don't you want to hear about other emperors? I won't talk about you liking Zhao Guangyi. You can talk about Wan Yangou."

Zhao Jun said with a smile: "It took a lot of effort to create the national hero Yue Fei, who led the Yue family army to a complete victory in the Northern Expedition. However, he was killed by him when he destroyed the city wall. If you ask me, just having a bronze statue of Qin Hui and his wife at the entrance of Yue Fei Temple is still better." If it’s missing, Wanyan Gou will have to add it.”

Who is Wanyan Gou?

Who is Yue Fei?

Who is Qin Hui again?

Fan Zhongyan felt confused.

But now was not the time to ask, so he could only bury his doubts in his heart and continue to watch.

Yan Shu insisted: "I still like Song Renzong very much. Just talk about Lu Yijian and Fan Zhongyan. Is Lu Yijian a loyal minister or a traitor?"

"In terms of image, he is a traitor."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Zhao Zhen, Lu Yijian and Song Shou all changed suddenly, including Yan Shu.

"But that's because of subsequent changes in movies, novels, TV series, etc., which led to the bad image of Lu Yijian."

"The main reason is that Fan Zhongyan is too famous, he is a great poet who cares about the country and the people, and he is also a loyal minister. People think that those who oppose Fan Zhongyan must be treacherous ministers."

"In fact, they take things too superficially and think that everything is black and white. We who study history must be more objective and cannot follow blindly."

"Judging from the deeds of Lu Yijian, during the Zhenzong Dynasty of Song Dynasty, he was already well-known as an honest and capable minister, with outstanding talents, prudence and diligence, and he also did a good job in local governance."

"Later Song Zhenzong died, Lu Yijian became the prime minister, and stood unswervingly on the side of Song Renzong Zhao Zhen in the struggle with Queen Mother Liu E, safeguarding Zhao Zhen's imperial status and consolidating the monarchy. He must be a loyal minister. "

"After Renzong came to power, he actively made many requests to Renzong that only a wise king could fulfill. I have forgotten the specific content. Anyway, they are all loyal suggestions. Generally speaking, Lu Yijian is still Zhao Zhen's most trusted minister."

"If it weren't for Lao Fan's "Hundred Officials Picture" that prevented Lu Yijian from coming to power, and then the internal fighting between Wang Zeng, Cai Qi and Lu Yijian and Song Shou, which caused all four of them to step down, I guess Zhao Zhen wouldn't be able to part with Lu Yijian."

After saying this last sentence, it was not Yan Shu, Lu Yijian, Song Shou whose expression changed drastically, but the expressions of Fan Zhongyan, Wang Zeng and Cai Qi changed greatly.

Especially Wang Zeng and Cai Qi, they knew that their future resignation was related to Lu Yijian and Song Shou.

The two looked at each other and could see the horror in each other's eyes.

Fan Zhongyan was a hot-tempered man, so he became impatient and said loudly: "You are talking nonsense. Lu Yijian has power over the whole government and is nepotistic. How can he be a loyal minister?"

"who?"

Zhao Jun asked almost with surprise when he heard the new voice.

Zhao Zhen was so angry that his blood pressure rose again.

He was even more angry than Zhao Jun calling him a fool.

He had promised Fan Zhongyan not to talk, but it ended up ruining a big thing.

Yan Shu was still quick-witted and said quickly: "This is the village party secretary Granima. His waist has recovered a little today. He came to see Teacher Zhao."

"It turns out to be Uncle Nima. Judging from your name, he should be a Tibetan. But this is the Tibetan Autonomous County under Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture. It is normal for the Yi and Tibetans to mix."

Zhao Jun didn't hear anything strange, because Yan Shu had already read his admission notice as a support teacher and knew that he was going to the Tibetan Autonomous County in Daliang Mountain to support education, so he had an idea and joined the role of Tibetan Village Party Secretary.

In addition, from the accent, Fan Zhongyan is from Guanzhong, and his Mandarin is rather blunt. Moreover, he didn't listen carefully to the voice just now, so he couldn't tell the specific accent based on this voice alone.

But he heard the other party's rebuttal, so Zhao Jun said: "Uncle Nima seems to have a different opinion, but you don't know one thing."

"What's up?"

Fan Zhongyan asked subconsciously.

"Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian had disagreements and had many disputes. In the fourth year of Jingyou's reign, Wang Zeng couldn't bear it and accused Lu Yijian of "taking favors from the market." Lu Yijian requested to answer in front of Renzong, but when Renzong asked Wang Zeng's reasons, Wang Zeng Zeng Que said something wrong, which shows that Lu Yijian is a very honest official, at least he is not a corrupt official. "

Zhao Jun said: "Moreover, he safeguarded Song Renzong's rights and interests, and has been teaching Song Renzong to govern the country like a wise king. He did not betray the national interests and kill his own generals like those foolish and traitorous ministers in the Southern Song Dynasty. Various signs indicate that Lu Yijian is indeed He is a loyal minister and good official."

"Then since Lu Yijian is a good official, isn't Fan Zhongyan a traitor?"

Fan Zhongyan sneered.

Zhao Jun felt that his tone was a bit harsh and his thinking was a bit black and white. Could it be that he was a fan of Lao Fan?

This Nini Village is really weird. The village chief is a fan of Zhao Guangyi, the God of War, and the village party secretary is a fan of Fan Zhongyan. How come they both like a garbage dynasty like Da Zi?

"You can't say that. Lu Yijian is a good official, Wang Zeng is also a good official, and Fan Zhongyan is even more so. They just have different positions."

Zhao Jun explained: "Because Lu Yijian was favored by Zhao Zhen, some officials were arbitrary, which made Wang Zeng and Fan Zhongyan dissatisfied, but in the final analysis, they were all for the good of the country."

"Yes, yes, they are all for the good of the country."

Yan Shu smoothed things over.

Zhao Jun smiled again and said: "Uncle Nima is a bit stuck in a blind alley. His temper is a bit like Fan Zhongyan's. He is too obsessed with right and wrong. In fact, there are no black and white people and things in this world, and there is no perfect good or evil. Absolutely, don’t saints ever make mistakes?”

"It is precisely because of complexity and chaos that it requires more levels of interpretation and a two-part understanding, just like Wang Anshi and Su Shi, who are both one of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties."

"Wang Anshi wanted to carry out reforms to change the Song Dynasty's continued poverty and weakness due to the three-redundancy problem. Does this mean that he was a loyal minister like Fan Zhongyan? He learned from Fan Zhongyan's lessons and no longer focused on reforming officialdom like Fan Zhongyan. Want to reform the economy, military and agriculture.”

"But although he did not lay off officials, he also set up some new departments to increase bureaucrats. But the problem is that his reforms are still too radical, and the policies he proposes are difficult to implement perfectly. The top people think well, but they change when they are below. The result is a heavier burden on the people, exacerbating the country's turmoil and serious internal strife."

"Su Shi himself was also a reformist. He found that Wang Anshi's policies were inappropriate, so he objected fiercely. Wang Anshi was a famous minister of the Qing Dynasty who was famous throughout the ages, and so was Su Shi. Could it be that Su Shi became a traitor just because he opposed Wang Anshi? This is obviously not true. Something that makes sense.”

"Furthermore, Sima Guang, who wrote "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", was also an opponent of Wang Anshi. Although after Wang Anshi's fall, he was extremely paranoid and obliterated all Wang Anshi's achievements. Even the land that Wang Anshi launched during the war was lost to Sima Guang. It can be said to be extremely stupid to give it to Xixia, but after his death, his family had no money and he was very honest. Can Uncle Ziri call him a traitor? "

Fan Zhongyan didn't know how to refute these words.

Because he didn't even know Wang Anshi, Su Shi, and Sima Guang.

Wang Anshi is only fifteen years old this year and will not be awarded Jinshi until the second year of Qingli five years later.

Sima Guang is nineteen years old and will not join the official service until next year.

As for Su Shi?

Just born this year.

So if Fan Zhongyan is asked to tell Zhao Jun about a group of people from the future, how can he say it?
