Chapter 286 Cai Ping: The students were about to fight to the death, why did the teacher surrender first?
——
Sima Mansion,
study,
Although Zhao Shi was a junior and a student, he was undoubtedly placed in the main seat. He took the maid's tea, took a sip and said, "Master Sima, how many days will you stay when you return to Beijing this time?"
"I'll leave in three to five days."
Sima Guang replied, then glanced at Ouyang Xiu, ignored Su Xun who was sitting at the bottom seat, and said bluntly: "My return to Beijing this time is called reunion, but it is actually a confession."
"Confess?"
Zhao Shi knew clearly, but still showed a bit of surprise. Sima Guang also knew that with Ouyang Xiu's big mouth, Zhao Shi must have known it, and was just pretending not to know, so he took the opportunity to think that Zhao Shi really didn't know, and said seriously: "Yes,
As the general magistrate of Bingzhou, I banned the trade between Xixia and the Song Dynasty, which intensified the conflict. I also forced the fortress to be built in front of Xixia. In addition, I did not strictly prohibit alcohol, which led to the drunken generals guarding the city leaving the city and returning in defeat.
"
Zhao Shi nodded: "Maybe so, but... Pang Ji, as the economic and pacification envoy to Hedong, has the responsibility to investigate everything. He did not pay attention to the problems of the city, the fortress, the prohibition of alcohol, etc., so he cannot escape the blame.
And he cannot escape his guilt. Even if Master Sima makes this matter bigger, it will only be one more person to be punished, so why bother?"
Sima Guang was stunned. Like everyone else who met Zhao for the first time, he was slightly shocked by this young man who looked to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. Then he smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know the many reasons. I only know that
, this matter is the fault of the minister, Pang Ji is nothing more than trusting the minister too much, and it is the fault of the minister alone."
"Single sin?"
Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but move forward, obviously trying to persuade...
"Single sin."
However, Sima Guang said resolutely: "I dare not deceive His Highness the Crown Prince and Duke Ouyang. I have actually written a clarification article and made an appointment with Zhu Yun of the Song Dynasty Newspaper. Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow at the latest, I will
I will tell the world about this matter from above. Your Highness, the officials will not agree, so I will ask all the officials and people to blame me for my crime."
stubborn,
Zhao Shi looked at Sima Guang. Although Sima Guang rarely had a tough look on his face and his tone of voice was not too paranoid, there was a hint of... stubbornness in his whole person. Zhao Shi would not be affected by this.
He had a good impression of Sima Guang, but he couldn't help but said helplessly: "Of those generals who went out of the city drunk, none of them survived?" If there are survivors, perhaps they can be blamed for the crime. After all, it is indeed them.
It’s a mistake, it’s a pity...
"No."
Sima Guang was also a little helpless. As long as one person survived, he would not be so passive. Even as a person involved, he still does not know the details of the tragic defeat: "The general who left the city, the deputy commander, Yuhou, and the captain
After waiting for eight generals, only three came back, and they all committed suicide after returning."
"Um……"
Zhao Shi nodded slightly and was listening carefully to Sima Guang's story. Then... he was startled, slowly raised his head, and squinted his eyes slightly: "Come to commit suicide together?" How had the generals of the Song Dynasty ever known honor and disgrace so well?
"yes."
Sima Guang was a little helpless, but he didn't find it strange: "Three of them, even if they don't commit suicide, can't escape the blame. If it weren't for them, why would Xixia find the reason? Not only did they defeat our Song army, but they also forced me to
The compensation is tens of thousands of taels of silver."
etc,
You were defeated and you still paid?
Zhao Shi looked at Sima Guang quietly, and sure enough, I am unlikely to like you, and then asked: "How did you commit suicide?"
What else?
Sima Guang was a little confused, but Ouyang Xiu thought of something and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness is the governor of Kaifeng. He is known to have the power of divine judgment. I can't explain it. There is something fishy in this."
Something strange?
Sima Guang frowned even deeper, even showing disbelief, and... the power of divine judgment?
Sima Guang looked Zhao Shi up and down a little impolitely. He was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the capital was thousands of miles away from Bingzhou. Thousands of miles away, as a person who had experienced it, he didn't think there was anything strange. He could see it.
What's going on?
Sima Guang shook his head,
He doesn't believe it,
And since he didn't believe it, he naturally wouldn't say it. Even when Ouyang Xiu spoke frequently and couldn't help but punch him, he just shook his head without any extra expression, and said like an honest man:
"I just felt guilty and committed suicide."
Zhao Shi was helpless,
He couldn't force Sima Guang to say something he didn't want to say, so he could only turn around and look at the study. The study was very traditional and the books were arranged meticulously, but... Zhao Shi was slightly startled and left naturally.
He went over and picked up the newspapers from the Imperial Residence and asked with some curiosity: "What do Master Sima think of these newspapers?"
Not so good,
Not so good,
In the small room next door, Cai Ping clung to the wall like a gecko. When he heard Sima Guang say: "It's just ordinary." He breathed a sigh of relief, and then he clung to the wall even more...
"oh?"
However, Zhao Shi showed no impatience and even asked more sincerely: "Can Master Sima please talk about the shortcomings?"
"shortcoming?"
Sima Guang shook his head: "I have never seen such a Di Bao before, and I have never even thought of it. In my heart, the Di Bao is the boring day, month, and year. Therefore, I have never seen it before."
Similar, I can’t say there are any shortcomings, but..."
Sima Guang shook his head again, with a stubbornness about telling the truth: "This thing should lead, spread, and recast the ability of speech. Therefore, although I don't know, I can't imagine how it will develop or what it will develop to."
The situation, but I just think it is... ordinary."
Can.
You are stubborn and you are right. Zhao Shi looked helplessly through the newspaper of the Emperor's Residence published by him. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard some irrepressible cheers that seemed to come from next door. What were you cheering for? Zhao Shi read it subconsciously.
He glanced at the wall and then said: "Master Sima, can you please withdraw the clarification tomorrow?"
Sima Guang narrowed his eyes, and even Ouyang Xiu raised his head and glanced at Zhao Shi. He didn't blame them for thinking too much. After all, Da Song Di Bao was Zhao Shi's competitor, and Zhao Shi didn't hide it: "I
I really don’t want it to take advantage of Sima Shi’s reputation to become a blockbuster impulsively…”
"impulse?"
Sima Guang seemed to dislike hearing these two words, so Zhao Shi was not polite, raised his eyebrows and said: "Oh? Otherwise? Not to mention the pressure from public opinion, you just went to the Prince's Mansion alone and begged on your knees.
The officials, given their benevolent nature, will definitely believe you, but what next? Arrest you and put Mr. Pang Ji back in his original position? Can you put him back in his original position?"
Sima Guang froze,
Zhao Shi continued: "It's impossible. Even if Pang Xianggong is not the main crime, it is definitely a secondary crime. He can't have such a big thing happening in his own jurisdiction. He, a Hedong Road manager and pacifier, has no responsibility at all, right? Moreover,
, he arrested them all, and then released them? Are the censors who arrest people and investigate the case willing?"
Sima Guang slowly came back to his senses: "If you don't want to, you have to be willing. I'm the only one guilty."
Okay, okay, okay, you are the only one to blame. Zhao Shi found that there were many stubborn donkeys in the Song Dynasty. There were Bao Zheng and Ouyang Xiu before him, and then there were Sima Guang, Wang Anshi, and even Su Shi. However, their stubbornness was different. Bao Zheng
It is a kind of paranoia towards the common people. Ouyang Xiu believes in the truth for himself, while Sima Guang... he is pure and stubborn.
"Master Sima doesn't even care what Xianggong Pang thinks?"
Sima Guang was startled,
Deng Deng Deng
It's also a coincidence,
As soon as Zhao Shi finished saying this, a servant hurried in from outside. The servant didn't even take a breath and said, "Pang Gong is here to report. I will take the blame and go home."
"What?"
Not to mention Sima Guang, even Ouyang Xiu and even the next door heard incredible sounds, and then the servant continued: "It is said that on the way Pang Gong was being escorted back to the capital, he heard that Lang Jun submitted a petition to plead guilty, and he was furious and went to the spot.
He resigned, had someone send him back to his hometown, and then scolded him..."
"What else are you scolding?"
Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but roared, then the servant secretly glanced at Sima Guang, whose face was a little stiff, and whispered: "You also scolded Mr. Lang for his bad brain, impulsiveness and stupidity."
impulse?
Sima Guang glanced at Zhao Shi, who shook his head slightly: "I have admitted my crime, and it is nothing more than being demoted to the third class for retention. If you feel guilty, you can work harder to prove that you are not protected in vain. Who can
I still don’t know that it’s your problem, Mr. Pang loves talents, but with your trouble, not only can you not wash away Mr. Pang’s guilt, but you have also smashed Mr. Pang’s good intentions to pieces. How can he not be angry? "
Even if Pang Ji couldn't kick you, if Pang Ji could kick you, he would kick all your internal organs out.
