"Your Majesty, if you look briefly, Wei Zheng first surrendered to Taiyi's son Jiancheng, and then surrendered to Taizong. Even if he failed to be a master, Taizong accepted advice as if he was straightforward. Even if he was not a person with a round inside and a square outside, he was also a person with a square inside and an outside."

"It makes sense, but why do you say he is square inside and round outside?"

"How can a person look at the surface? Zheng Guozi Chan had a disease and said to his uncle, "If I die, I will govern the people. Only those who are virtuous can be virtuous. The second is the fierce one. The people are afraid of it, so they die. The water is weak and the people are close to it, so they die more. Therefore, it is difficult to be lenient. After several months of death, the uncle was in charge of the government and could not bear to be fierce and choose lenient. Zheng Guo many thieves gathered in swamps and lakes with reeds. The uncle regretted and said, "I listened to him long ago, but it was not as good as this. So he sent troops to attack the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the thieves of the th

This passage comes from "Zuo Zhuan" compiled by Confucius. Zichan died and said to Uncle Zi, "If I die, you must be in power. Only those with noble virtues can use lenient policies to govern the people. Secondly, nothing is more important than being severity. Fire is fierce, and people are afraid of it, so few people die from fire. The water is weak and the people like to play with it, so many people die from water. Therefore, it is difficult to blindly adopt lenient policies to govern the country.

Uncle Zi only repented after he learned a lesson. Confucius said, "Okay, those who are lenient in governance will be despised. If they are lenient, they will be corrected with severity. If they are severity, they will be persecuted. If they are lenient, they will be persecuted and then lenient. Therefore, politics will be peaceful."

So how do you look at the surface when looking at things?

But Zheng Lang frowned slightly. Wang Anshi said this sentence, which was in line with the meaning he said. After a look, this was a book written by Confucius. He also agreed to be generous and fierce, and he was not be kind to everything.

Secondly, it also proves that his heart is still dominated by a great Legalist thought.

But no one would pay attention, so he would listen to him and say it all. He said: "Wei Zheng was assisted by Taiyi's son Jiancheng. At that time, Taizong was already in great power, and Wei Zheng still forced his advice to Jiancheng. If he wanted to accomplish things early, he would do it early. Jiancheng refused to listen and was indecisive. He did not remove the main trunk and wanted to cut off the branches and leaves, but instead he would start a frightened snake, which was eliminated by Taizong. If he was a person with both ends of the head and rat, he would be round inside and square outside. Why not serve Taizong before he achieved his success? One of them is."

If you want to prove that Wei Zheng is square inside and round outside, you must first argue that Wei Zheng is square inside, which seems reasonable.

"Wei Zheng served Taizong because Jiancheng died, not taking the initiative to flatter the master, but Taizong forced himself to ask for help. Therefore, Qi State did not shame him for Guan Zhong to serve Gongzi Ji before, and then Xiaobai. He did not treat Yan Zi as a member of Qi Jing Gong without being a virtuous prime minister. He was the second minister, and Pang Deyi died in Fanbei. Yang Ye died in Chenjiayu. Who dares to say that they were not righteous men and were not a straight man? The second is."

"Taizong defeated the Turkic people, and the Turkic people came to surrender and discussed it. Wei Zheng only thought that the Turkic era was a bandit, and the people were unable to subdue it. Now he was lucky to defeat it, and because he surrendered and did not bear to kill it all. He should allow him to return to his hometown and not keep it in China. The people of Rongdi faced and were weak, so he asked to surrender, and the strong would rebel, which was the constant nature. Now he surrendered nearly 100,000, and after a few years, the revenge must be large, and he must be loyal and he should not regret it. Moreover, there were examples of the previous Jin Dynasty. However, Taizong did not listen, and Wei Zheng did not force his advice, why?"

"Why?"

"Li Jing and others have made many military achievements. In the Taizong era, they can be convinced. In the death of Emperor Taizong, who can be convinced? Therefore, they are given the title of Hu, and their titles are given to them, and they are given the meritorious officials, and they will be able to seize the meritorious officials. Otherwise, they can only learn from the Western Han Dynasty and be protected by their descendants, and they will definitely harm these meritorious officials. However, more than a hundred years later, there will be disasters in the Anshi Rebellion. Dun does not know whether Wei Zheng did not insist at the time, whether it was right or wrong. The third is that. Therefore, I said that he is also a world of square inside and round outside. Please think of it."

"That's true..." The little emperor couldn't help laughing, and then looked at the boy in front of him.

This time when he went out, Zheng Lang specially asked the little maid to dress up Wang Anshi.

History says that Wang Anshi and his ministers were at a banquet in the palace. The little emperor made an easy rule that anyone must go to the imperial pond to fish. The imperial chef will take the fish caught by everyone and make the dishes that everyone likes to eat. Everyone went fishing with great enthusiasm, but Wang Anshi sat absent-mindedly in front of the platform thinking about the problem, and ate the bait as snacks one by one. Everyone was surprised, but Wang Anshi said that he was full. So the little emperor thought that this person was a hypocrite and could not like fishing. He could accidentally eat a few baits for the sake of problems, but it was impossible to eat the whole plate of bait without knowing it. Therefore, it was not reused.

Opponents believed that Song Renzong's approach was right, and those who agreed believed that Song Renzong exaggerated it, and gave an example, saying that Mrs. Wang complained that his officials didn't know what to eat. A friend of him thought he liked to eat venison. The next day, he made a pot of venison and put it in front of him. Sure enough, he finished eating it. My friend said, "I'm right, I don't believe that you change a pot of vegetables tomorrow and put the venison farther." The next day, he went to make it, but after eating another pot of vegetables, the venison didn't move.

This statement is only half the credibility, but the official statement is quite credible. When Wang Anshi was appointed as the judge of Duzhi in the third year of Jiayou, he wrote to Zhao Zhen tens of thousands of words to request reform. After seeing it, Zhao Zhen, who had just been dizzy by Fan Zhongyan and others, also thought it was pedantic and unrestrained, but he still paid a little attention to this talent and transferred him to the capital to prepare daily life notes and trained it. Wang Anshi thought it was a idle position, so he refused to give up. So Zhao Zhen changed his appointment to make an imperial edict, drafted an edict for the emperor, and inspected the prison in Beijing. Because of his disobedience, it was difficult to continue to be an official in the court, so he asked his mother to return to Jiangning to mourn.

No matter which one it was, it would have a great blow to Wang Anshi and also aggravated his stubborn personality.

Therefore, Zheng Lang should not leave a bad impression on the young emperor, so that this wicked husband can obtain a warm environment for growth.

So the maid took a black robe and fur coat and asked him to put it on, with a white fox collar on it, a soapy green new cloth shoes under it, and a small black squid head on it, at least temporarily, looking like a handsome young man from a big family.

The little emperor liked it even after seeing it because he saw some shadows of Zheng Lang from him.

Actually, it is not. Don’t talk about a careless husband who lives a careless life and pays attention to the details of life. Even Sima Guang is not as good as Zheng Lang. Whether it is said that Zheng Lang is a elegant person or that he loves cleanliness. In his heart, he is still a typical petty bourgeois who pays attention to the details if he has the conditions.

Wang Anshi was affected by some, but it was not obvious. Sometimes Zheng Lang took the initiative to raise it and asked him to repair the edge.

"It's actually very difficult. It's already difficult to be such a person. What's even more difficult is getting along with people."

The little emperor rubbed his hands and glanced at Zheng Lang again, "Yes, you taught it well, it seems that just this four seasons of life is very knowledgeable. He said, "You talk about it."

"There are too few gentlemen in the world. Most of them are the other three situations, such as the Li Tang Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty, and the Chen State of the Southern Dynasty. The sound of the whole country is desolate. If the warmth is not awake, the warmth of the people. The whole country is flattering, then the heavens will be strong, and the gentleman will continue to strive for self-improvement and become a spring thunder that awakens the world."

"What a good person is going to be healthy, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement." The little emperor couldn't help but admire him.

It's really good, but I can see that. Compared with the Zheng family, this child has more firmness and less gentleness, but he is still a good boy.

Even the other ministers all agreed to be a son of the Wang family.

The facts are good, and with Zheng Lang's careful advice, his thoughts are at least mature and broader than Wang Anshi's thoughts in the same period in history.

"It's not the most terrifying. The most terrifying thing is that there are a group of winter people around you, who are cold, violent, violent, ruthless, for example, during the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, such as during the Qin Shihuang, when the Master was resurrected, he was powerless. Therefore, the Master said that no danger should enter a dangerous country, and that the chaotic country would not live in a state of chaos. If there is a way in the world, it will be seen; if there is no way, it will be hidden; if there is a way in the country, it will be poor and humble, it will be shameful, and if there is no way in the country, it will be shameful."

Confucius said that if you do not enter a dangerous country or live in a turbulent country, you will come out to politics if the world is politically clear and you will retreat if the politics is dark. If the country is politically clear, you will be poor and humble, this is a shame. If the country is politically dark and you will be rich and you will be rich, it is also a shame.

In fact, it is just that there is a way to help it, and there is no way to leave it. Even if you sacrifice, you will not make unnecessary sacrifices, so it is said that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

But later it was misinterpreted that Confucianism was a group of people who were wise and greedy for life and fear of death, which was another wrong statement.

"Then let's talk about the other two people."

"Your Majesty, if there are a group of people in the court with a square inside and a round outside, then congratulations to Your Majesty, Wen Jing, Zhenguan, Kaiyuan, and Xianping for the coming of the rule."

The best years in the Northern Song Dynasty were not created by Liu E, nor by Zhao Zhen, Song Shenzong, or Song Taizong. But when Song Zhenzong was in power in the early days, it had nothing to do with Kou Zhun. Kou Zhun's greatest political achievement was that, otherwise the Northern Song Dynasty would probably have lost half of its territory at that time.

At that time, several people in power, including Li Wen, Lu Mengzheng and Cao Bin. Strictly speaking, they all met what Wang Anshi or Zheng Lang said, and the inside and the outside round demands were square. These humble gentlemen laid the best cornerstone for the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty.

"So what about summer?"

"Xia Tianchen doesn't know," Wang Anshi didn't dare to say it at this time, but he didn't know that what Zheng Lang was most worried about was that he and Sima Guang turned into two big suns, rather than the so-called gentlemen in front of him. He also said: "If it appears, it is also terrible. These people think they are gentlemen, but they are not capable of seeing the future of the country like Wei Zheng. Therefore, they lack the ability and have to pick on nitpicking and seek fame. Under their pressure, all officials under their rule did not seek merit, but wanted to be wrong, so that they would not cause trouble, and let them impeach. It was also dangerous."

It is of course dangerous if all ministers do not seek merit, but do not do anything wrong.

The little emperor knew what he said. Obviously, this sentence was influenced by some of Zheng Lang's thoughts. Zheng Lang had said similar things before, but he didn't say anything after hearing them.

But this sentence finally angered a person. Boy, you clearly meant Huai scolding Sang!

Fan Feng stood up.

He was very dissatisfied with Zheng Lang. Don’t think that he had nothing to say that day, but he was dissatisfied and still insisted on his own opinion. It was not that he was dissatisfied. Later, many gentlemen in Renzong Dynasty had his problems. The world was great, and I was the second biggest, and everyone else was wrong.

He did not make the difference, but instead made Fan Feng think that this was the real traitor who was loyal and loyal. He was not obsessed with so many people, how could he be such a "traitor"?

Now it's better. I don't know where I found two more thorny people to be students. I can't support myself. Two people are in groups and three people form a party! The biggest disaster of the Song Dynasty is about to appear. For the future of the Song Dynasty, he bravely stood up.
