King of Song

Chapter 446 Chapter [-]
Lin Zhao, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was in charge of river control. As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shaken.

On the issue of governing the Yellow River, the imperial court finally had another way.This is really good news for the hearts of the people, especially the people on both sides of the Yellow River.The Yellow River often bursts, and their lives and property are often threatened, and they have been in fear for too long.Every time it rains, I tremble with fear, and I am really a little scared.

Now that it can be resolved, it is of course the best, and I can finally live a peaceful life for a few days in the future.Therefore, when the news came, the people on both sides of the Yellow River applauded.However, the people who have suffered disasters are also worried. The imperial court has managed the river many times over the years, but it often ended in failure. What about this time?Will it be another empty joy?
The common people are happy, but some people are unhappy.Many local officials wrote to oppose it, especially the plan to rebuild the Ergu River, expressing their doubts and opposition.What a lesson from the past is right in front of you, the Daming Mansion bursts and the river is surging, you must learn a lesson...

These people have not seen Lin Zhao's new tools and materials, nor have they seen such experiments.It's just hearsay, seeing is believing after all, so it's not surprising to have such a reaction.That is, the reason why Lin Zhao had to demonstrate it intuitively, so that seeing is believing.

What people trust most is always their own eyes.

It's a pity that these people impeached are insignificant, and there is nothing special about the memorial, the weight is really too clear.Ouyang Xiu, the magistrate of Ruzhou, sent a memorial to Bianjing, expressing his support for the new construction of the Ergu River.

Ouyang Xiu was highly respected and had far-reaching influence in the Song Dynasty. In terms of river governance, he opposed Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo's old Erguhe plan, and it was finally proved that he was right, so he is very important in river governance. have the right to speak.With his support, other voices of opposition and doubt disappeared without a trace.Ouyang Xiu has always been known for his fairness and integrity, so no one doubts his intentions and starting point.In this way, Lin Zhao got the support of Ouyang Gong logically.

However, there are always people who are unwilling to give up and make a fuss about the issue of monopoly.But they didn't know that the emperor Zhao Xu personally nodded his head on this matter, and this time he wanted to give Lin Zhao this privilege, so objecting to it was useless and meaningless.In the end, nothing came to light, and the emperor Zhao Xu put on a posture determined to protect Lin Zhao to the end!So it doesn't matter at all.

"Yuanze, it's useless to tell you, why do you bother so much?" Lu Huiqing's words pointed out the ins and outs of this matter, and it was Wang Yu who jumped up.

Wang Yu smiled lightly, a bit bitterly!

His father is the prime minister, and he is the crown prince Zhongyun, who is close to the center, so he is very clear about the situation in the Great Song Dynasty.The matter of governing the river was extraordinary, and it immediately diverted all attention.The center of gravity of the imperial court suddenly shifted to the aspect of river governance, and the attention and investment in the reform were much less. The focus of the imperial government and the emperor's attention in the next period of time would be deflected.

This undoubtedly has a great influence, and the minister of river governance is already more prominent than the prime minister.If things go on like this, it will have some influence on Wang Anshi. Mr. Yu himself may not care about it, thinking that as long as it is beneficial to the Song Dynasty, he has no objection, but his son may not think so.

He doesn't want his father's power to be affected because of this. Power is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

It would be fine if it was someone else, but the Minister of River Control was Lin Zhao, who instantly became popular as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, which made Wang Yu feel very uncomfortable.

We must know that Wang Anshi participated in the governance of the Yellow River in Xining in the second year, but he broke up in the end. He was impeached and blamed for it a few days ago.This time Lin Zhao adopted the same plan. If he really repaired the Yellow River, wouldn't it mean that Wang Anshi made a mistake last time?Is Wang Xianggong incompetent?If someone with a heart knows about it, they will even say some cruel words about cutting corners.

Therefore, when Lin Zhao proposed to continue rebuilding the Ergu River, hostility had already developed between them.Coupled with the jealousy in Wang Yu's heart, Lin Zhao was well prepared in all aspects. The methods, new materials, and new tools he came up with were all very good. He really had a set, and it was undoubtedly the best in the current river governance. good plan.

How could Lin Zhao come up with such a good solution?Why can he have such fantastic ideas?Not to mention Iron Claw Dragon and Junchuan Loquat, as long as experienced water workers can think of it.But the cement is completely new, unheard of, and never seen.There is also the method of beaming water and flushing sand, how does he, a scholar who was born as a servant, understand it?
Why is he able to participate in many difficult things?It seems to be a prophet, and the fate is even more amazing.why?Wang Yu is a very conceited person, he has always regarded himself as a young talent, and even feels that no one in Bianjing can compare with him.

But in front of Lin Zhao, he seemed useless.Now Lin Zhao's limelight is even stronger than before, even stronger than his father Wang Anshi, and he seems to be the number one man of the Song Dynasty.Thinking back then, he was just a humble servant of the Meng family in Jiangning, but now he can get to this point?
If he hadn't helped him in Jiangning back then, how could he have achieved the success he is today?It's a pity that he doesn't know how to repay his kindness, and instead fights against others everywhere. It's really hateful!At this moment, Wang Yu is regretting that he did not do it at the beginning, but today he has added a strong opponent to himself.But he completely forgot how much Lin Zhao had done for their father and son starting from Jiang Ning?
He regarded Lin Zhao as an opponent in his heart, but in Lin Zhao's eyes, he never looked at him directly.In the final analysis, there is no difference between Wang Yu and the dude, he is just a self-righteous guy!

There is no medicine for regret in the world. Even if Wang Xi regrets it, there is nothing he can do about it. A done deal cannot be changed.It was precisely because of this that it stimulated his self-esteem more and more, making him even more jealous of Lin Zhao.

Not only that, he also knew very well that the success of river control would bring huge benefits.At the beginning, he also considered letting his father Wang Anshi preside over the matter of fame and fortune, and in the end he could solve the adverse effects of the reform.However, there was no better solution, so I had to give up.This kind of thing, if you are not sure, you must not reach out, but you did not expect Lin Zhao to take advantage of the loophole.

If it really succeeds for him, he knows how great the benefits will be.Moreover, Wang Yu had a vague feeling that everything that Lin Zhao decided would succeed in the end.This situation has been verified many times, and judging from the current situation, this time seems to be no exception.

If he really succeeds, what kind of arrogance will he not know in the future?I don't know why, but when he thinks about Lin Zhao's future situation, Wang Yu becomes jealous and dreadful.That's why he moved his mind to stop Lin Zhao, he couldn't do it in other ways.

As a result, some officials from other places were encouraged to write a letter of impeachment, hoping to stop Lin Zhao.Since Wang Anshi began to preside over the reform, there have been many foreign officials who have been opportunistic and flattering, so there are still people who are willing to help with this trivial matter.It's a pity that things backfired, and it didn't have the desired effect at all.

Not only did it fail to stop Lin Zhao, but it attracted Ouyang Xiu to dispatch, which made Lin Zhao earn more prestige.At the same time, it also strengthened the emperor's determination to control the river, and the gain outweighed the loss.

Seeing this, Lu Huiqing shook her head and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later. This time, the officials made it clear that they were protecting him. Such an approach would not have any effect? ​​Instead, it would cause some trouble. Why bother?" He was very sensible and knew Wang Yu's behavior has no practical significance, it is completely impulsive.It's just that he seemed to be admonishing Wang Yu on the surface, but in fact, he made Wang Yu even more angry.To put it bluntly, Lu Huiqing deliberately provoked Wang Yu to deal with Lin Zhao.

The hatred of killing a younger brother is mortal, and Lu Huiqing has always wanted to take revenge, but it is easier said than done?Especially as Lin Zhao's power and status are getting higher and higher, it is hard to have a chance.Under such circumstances, if someone dealt with Lin Zhao, he would naturally be happy to see it succeed.In particular, this person is Wang Yu, but Wang Anshi is behind him, which is naturally extraordinary.And the more Wang Xi is like this, the happier he is, and under such circumstances, he can make better use of it.

It's just that Wang Xi's method is his pediatrics, and he can't shake Lin Zhao at all, which is really disappointing.

"But, looking at his complacent and rampant energy, I feel very uncomfortable!" Wang Yu is a typical jealousy.

"Hey, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, so why bother to get into trouble at this time?" Lu Huiqing shook her head and said, "The officials are now favoring him. Ordinary impeachment has no effect. Why bother to find it boring? Wait. Let’s talk about the right time, isn’t the treatment of the river just beginning! Is it sure to be successful? Not necessarily!”

The implication of Lu Huiqing's words is very obvious. The impeachment of Lin Zhao is actually a challenge to the emperor Zhao Xu, which has no meaning.If you don't wait until after the start of work, you can see the situation first, and then make a convenient response.

After the start of work, there were mistakes to be found. Although the officials said that they would not listen to slander, it was just a sentence.Could it be that the official Zhao Xu is completely relieved to hand it over to Lin Zhao?Without the slightest suspicion?Of course, the result is also very important. If the governance of the river fails, then some people are undoubtedly criminals, and there will naturally be ways to put them to death.

"Alright, that's all we have to do!" Wang Yu was also helpless. Under the current circumstances, without Wang Anshi's support, he was basically at the end of his rope.Wang Anshi had already publicly expressed his support for Lin Zhao, so what else could Wang Yu do, so he had to give up.

Wang Yu was helpless, but he was unwilling to give up in his heart.Just what to do?Just because I can't deal with Lin Zhao, it doesn't mean that no one else will deal with him. Maybe it will be a good show in a while!
