Chapter 39: The Simple Wen Yanbo
There was no thunder in the sky, but Wen Yanbo felt a thunder bombarding his heavenly spirit cover, and every word Wang Anshi said was like a knife to cut his heart.
His chest pain made him almost unable to straighten his back. The reason why he could stand firm with a hunched over was purely because there was still a surge of anger in his chest supporting him and preventing him from falling down.
"Share the world with the scholars and officials!"
"Share the world with scholars and officials"
"Share the world with the scholars and officials!"
There are only these seven words in his mind that keep roaring, and each word is deeply engraved in his mind. Even if he pours out all the waters of the world, he cannot erase these seven words.
This is the foundation of the establishment of the Song Dynasty!
This is the foundation of the Song Dynasty’s monument!
This is the spiritual pillar that scholars have worn through iron inkstones for ten years!
This is the softest place that the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty could not touch at all!
Wen Yanbo's nerves were as tough as steel wires, standing stubbornly on the ground. Soon the dizziness that was about to swallow him faded away like a tide, and the bright earth appeared in front of him again. So the gentle Wen Yanbo came back.
"You are also a literati!" Wen Yanbo said coldly to Wang Anshi.
Wang Anshi sneered and said, "When I was standing under Fanlou and was thrown away by the people and the gangsters with rotten vegetables and rotten eggs, oh, there was also a large basin of rotten water.
When I was despised by people all over the world, where are you? Only Yun Zheng kicked a piece of miscellaneous thing from Fanlou, have you ever said something to me?
I'm never sure if you have read the "National Defense Memorial" written by Yun Zheng. If you don't mention it, I naturally have no position to tell you specifically.
Today you think of the situation of the martial artists of the Song Dynasty. Sooner or later, you will find out what is wrong in the court, so telling you is not considered as betraying Yun Zheng, a friend!”
"Do you think Yun Zheng is your friend?" Wen Yanbo stared at Wang Anshi with wide eyes. He could not understand the idea of the alien among the scholar-officials.
Wang Anshi said strangely: "Even if we are not friends, we can't talk about being enemies no matter what, right? I'm extremely surprised by your thoughts. Yun Zheng is a minister of the Song Dynasty. You are also a minister of the Song Dynasty. We are all ministers of the Song Dynasty and are all serving the country of the Song Dynasty. Is it surprising that you are friends?"
Wen Yanbo shook his head and said, "I can't explain it clearly, I can't explain it clearly! No, I want to write a letter to ask Pang Xiang. I don't believe that he will allow the royal family to impose the power of the literati."
Wang Anshi said lazily: "Actually, as long as you think about how you got to Yunzheng's military camp, you can think of all the causes and consequences.
Yun Zheng is out of place with you. He would rather give in to you everywhere. Even the one who killed someone was my person than to have a complete confrontation with you. What do you say is for?
Yun Zheng has a far better temper than you have seen now, otherwise Li Chang would not have lost a few teeth, and those censors would not have been beaten to death by him.
If it weren't for enduring your bad face, it would be convenient for him to do other things, he would be patient with you. I heard that this guy is very unique in the military camp, and there are not only one or two civil servants who came to supervise him."
Wen Yanbo smiled calmly and said, "What do you mean is that I was kicked out of the capital because there are major changes in the capital?"
Wang Anshi stood up and patted the dust on his body and said, "I can't think of any possibility other than that. You thought you were clamping Yun Zheng. But you didn't know that someone was digging your ancestral grave!"
"No wonder I have never received a report from the mansion since I left Yanmen Pass!"
"I don't have it either, but I think Yun Zheng has it in his hands! Chen Lin might have it in his hands. But what happened in the capital has nothing to do with others, so they all hid beside them and prepared to watch our jokes."
Wen Yanbo said with a sinister face: "I am going to go to Yun Zheng to ask for a report, are you going?"
Wang Anshi looked at the four fields with interest behind his hands and said quietly: "From now on, I may have to stay on the land of Yanyun for a long time to test my reform proposals, and find a way for the Song Dynasty to think of the law for all ages. Even if I die on this land, Wang Anshi has nothing to regret."
Wen Yanbo sighed and said, "Where will you attach to the skin without hair? It's too narrow."
Wang Anshi smiled and said, "You are too narrow-minded. What I want to do is for the people, and what you want to fight for is for the scholars and officials. Whose pattern is bigger is clear at a glance."
Wen Yanbo was so heartbroken that he had no time to argue with Wang Anshi. He waved his sleeves and hurried to Yun Zheng's tent.
Wang Anshi stepped on the ground under his feet hard, and was very satisfied with the land here. He would make a good fertile land after a little trimming.
When the army entered the new camp, Yun Zheng had many trivial matters, and there were constant messengers entering and leaving the camp tent to convey the commander's military order to every corner of the army.
Su Xun was also busy and worked with Chen Lin to replenish food and fodder and various military supplies for the army. Whenever Yun Zheng issued a military order, the staff officer would plant the corresponding flags on the corresponding sand table according to the commander's general order, and then a staff member quickly used calculations to calculate what kind of weapons the troops that received the military order should be equipped with according to this military order.
Yun Zheng's central army tent is like a sophisticated machine. As long as it starts to operate, it has amazing efficiency. Wen Yanbo has seen this. When he saw Yun Zheng completely enter the coach mode, he honestly found a chair to sit down, closed his eyes to rest, but his temples were still beating, showing that his heart was in a state of uproar.
"Tell Li Dongchu that the defense in the northwest corner will be entrusted to him. If you encounter an attack, you will fight back immediately. The Liao people must not be allowed to merge north and south.
I will lead the entire army to pass through Yelu Yixin’s eight-gate golden lock formation this time? I want to see what he can do to me!"
The staff officer quickly inserted the blue flag representing Li Dongchu into the west of the army. Based on the degree of material consumption in recent days, the staff provided Li Dongchu with 40% of the additional gunpowder, gunpowder bullets, crossbow arrows, crossbow guns, stone bullets and other necessary materials.
After Su Xun reviewed the transfer order, he placed the transfer order in front of Chen Lin. Chen Lin picked up the print and covered it with expressionless face...
During the middle of the sun, Jiang Zhe entered this dilapidated camp. By sunset, it was surrounded by stone walls that were tall by man. Hundreds of tall taunts had been established, and various fortifications had been in place. The artillery position was in the center of the camp, not far from Yun Zheng's central army tent.
It is difficult for the Liao army to destroy artillery through sneak attacks.
After the messengers from all over the world rushed back to hand over the order, Yun Zheng fell to the tiger-skin chair in dejection. He picked up the teapot and took a mouthful of it, and then said to Wen Yanbo, who had been sitting in the tent for an hour, "Kuanfu is going to see how this commander dispatches troops?"
Wen Yanbo put his hands together and put them on his belly and smiled: "I just heard today that Mr. Yun once gave His Majesty a memorial called "National Defense Memorial" to His Majesty in Jiayou for three years?"
Yun Zheng knocked on his head and recalled for a long time before he said: "It seems that there is such a memorial. I don't remember it very clearly. Maybe there are too many memorials, and it's all nonsense. Brother Kuanfu doesn't have to care."
Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "Since you were qualified to write memorials until this year, Yunhou has submitted a total of 33 memorials, including six memorials that are thankful notes. I am fortunate to read all the remaining twenty-seven memorials.
Objectively speaking, reading Yunhou’s memorials is a pleasure. Every memorial is full of meaning, without any false words, and every advice is incisive. It is truly a slap, a palm of blood, a whip, and a mark, which is a model.
Yunhou’s vast knowledge and rich knowledge are the most admired by me. I use allusions and Taoism, and I don’t know where many allusions come from. When I think about them carefully, I think it makes sense.
I still remember the "Lingnan Request for Land" by Mr. Yun in the eighth year of Qingli. It is this memorial that our dynasty built a total of thirteen harbors in Lingnan and specially set up a trade zone, thus opening up the real era of great sailing in our dynasty. To this day, the South China Sea is filled with merchant ships, and trade is endless. Overseas trade in the South China Sea has accounted for half of the annual tax of my Song Dynasty, almost comparable to the tax on tea and wine in the whole world, second only to salt and iron…”
Seeing that Wen Yanbo had the meaning of opening a long article, Yun Zheng has always adopted an attitude towards complimentary words that he would not refuse anyone. Who doesn’t like to listen to compliments, especially those from Wen Yanbo, which is even more rare to hear.
So he changed to a more comfortable position and stretched his neck to encourage Wen Yanbo to continue talking. It was very important to him, at least it felt good.
Su Xun and Chen Lin also completed the military affairs at hand. Seeing that there was a lot of fun, each of them carried a teapot to prepare to drink tea while watching the rare wonders.
The compliments were spit out of Wen Yanbo's mouth, making Yun Zheng feel like hell. According to convention, Wen Yanbo's compliments were generally spoken to the emperor. As for who else is qualified to make Wen Yanbo today's compliments.
"I have read almost all the memorials of Mr. Yun, but I have never seen the "National Defense Memorial". But it was this memorial that made me feel uneasy. I wonder if Mr. Yun could give me a manuscript?" Wen Yanbo stood up and bowed to salute.
This surprised Chen Lin almost threw away the teapot in her hand.
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Brother Kuanfu has been awarded. This is true in "National Defense Memorial", but I have always been a scoundrel. I will forget most of the things I wrote today and tomorrow. Many memorials were written on a whim, and I have forgotten them all for a long time.
But I remember that Wang Jiefu once read the memorial. He had always had the ability to remember it all. Why didn’t Brother Kuanfu ask Brother Jiefu to write it out?”
Wen Yanbo sighed and said, "Imperial power is always imperial power. He is always high and unattainable. Sharing the world with the scholars and officials is just a promise that is in line with the times.
Once the stars change, things change, nothing cannot be changed, nothing is eternal. Yunhou has a very profound understanding of this!
Wen Yanbo is absolutely not enough!" (To be continued)
