Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 556 The right to know Hangzhou military affairs 2
Liu Renfeng was very puzzled. Wang Xiu never talked about government affairs and indulged in landscapes, which made him feel depressed. When he heard that Wang Xianggong only went around for a while, and then returned to the court to be the prime minister, he felt inexplicable anger.He couldn't fully accept Wang Xiu's theory, and even opposed it, but he was a child of the Wang family after all, and he couldn't tolerate other people's irresponsible remarks.

Today, he was in a bad mood. He got off his horse in front of the yamen, but saw Zong Liang going out, looking at him with a smile, and beside him were the fat Zhang Ling and the thin Lin Silang.

Although he has always been aloof, but Zong Liang used to be the deputy capital of the Privy Council, and now he has moved to an official to be Wang Xiu's supervisor of Gou Jiyi's writing. That's except for the important ministers of the two houses, the Six Departments of Shangshu, and Yushitai.He was a senior official, and he was his elder brother, so he didn't dare to trust him, so he walked up quickly and cupped his hands, and said with a smile, "I'm really ashamed to let my elder brother respond."

"This is your territory, so I will naturally come to welcome you, the parent officer." Zong Liang said with a smile.

Zhang Ling and Lin Silang bowed to Liu Renfeng, and said in both: "I have seen the third brother."

Liu Renfeng raised his arms slightly, and smiled gently: "Okay, after all, they are from Shangshui Primary School, so there is no need for a family of brothers to be polite. Oh, look at Fatty's composure, and become more and more rich. Well, Shiro is also full of joy, but he is too thin gone."

Zhang Ling's eyelids twitched, he squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Third Brother was joking, I was just worried that if I didn't have time to relax, I would lose all my body fat, so I would like to ask Third Brother for advice."

"Hehe, who did you learn the glib tone from?" Liu Renfeng laughed happily, then looked at Zong Liang, and said indifferently: "It's been a few months since my husband has been here for a long time, why is the elder brother so late?"

Zong Liang coughed dryly and forced a smile and said, "I have something to hand over. It was a little late and I just arrived yesterday." The contact channel came in a hurry.

Liu Renfeng didn't know the principles of the Privy Council, and didn't care too much about it, and said, "It's just a pity!"

"What a pity?" Zong Liang was startled, and went in without knowing.

"Sir, I have traveled all over the mountains and rivers, and I have seen all the beautiful places and beauties. My eldest brother came here twice, either in a hurry or late." Liu Renfeng teased with a half-smile.

The corner of Zong Liang's mouth twitched, and he said, "Then find a chance and let you accompany me."

"Of course, as long as the elder brother says, the younger brother will accompany him." Liu Renfeng smacked his lips, he didn't take advantage.

It is true that Zhang Ling is obsessed with research, but he is not dull like Lin Silang. On the contrary, he is very flexible. Seeing the two elder brothers talking to each other, they are very affectionate on the surface, but they are actually fighting wits. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said, "Big brother, third brother, the head of the mountain is still waiting." Zong Liang and the others called him sir, but they called him the head of the mountain.

Zong Liang rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Come on, let's go in quickly!"

The Yaqian Yamen of Hangzhou Prefecture is similar to the Yamen in other places, but the Second Courtyard is uniquely elegant in the south of the Yangtze River, with compact and orderly pavilions, small and exquisite gardens, full of flowers and plants, and Wang Xiu is sitting in the garden, sitting under the willow trees in a small pond. On the bluestone.

"Zimu was involved in the Huiyi case. Fortunately, it wasn't too deep. It's a blessing. Hey, I didn't expect Brother Jiu to violate the military regulations and lose his bright future. It's my fault that I was busy with other things and neglected to teach them. One of the purposes of my invitation to the county this time is to personally supervise and be a good mountain chief." Wang Xiu kept a faint smile on her face, but there was a touch of bitterness.

Liu Renfeng was silent, Shi Yong was confused, and delayed his bright future for some petty gains.However, just a few days ago, news of Shi Yong's transfer of Ren Zhiqian to the county seat still surprised him. When many people were taken directly, the prisons in Hangzhou Prison and Navy Prison were overcrowded. It seems that Wang Xiu operated it.

"Uncle Hong Ben is good at organizing Zhongshan Academy. It will be later. I also want to open a branch in Hangzhou. Well, the branch should be opened first to attract experience, and then formally establish Zhongshan Academy. The orphans of the elementary school , I will come to Hangzhou in the near future, starting with them, I can have a female fast in the academy."

Liu Renfeng very much agrees with the establishment of the academy, but he is not very happy. Wang Xiu's thinking seems to be too advanced, there is even a dual monarchy, and those appalling ideas, which make him disapproving.It can be said that among the nine sons of Wangmen, he considers himself the last stickler and defender of orthodox Confucianism.

He couldn't help frowning when he opened a women's studio. He didn't reject women's knowledge, but it was limited to family education. The large-scale opening of a women's studio was definitely a prelude to a women's school. He couldn't stand it, and said bluntly: " Do you want to run a women's school?"

"It's a women's studio in the academy." Wang Xiu replied flatly, how could he fall into Liu Renfeng's trap.

How could Liu Renfeng believe it? It was obviously an experimental exploration, and the final result was certain. He said displeasedly: "The result is the same."

"Well, isn't it possible?" Wang Xiu asked with a smile.

"Women are virtuous without talent." Liu Renfeng said firmly.

"Isn't your wife also called a talented woman? She has no virtue, so let her go." Wang Xiu was still unhurried, but there was a hint of displeasure in the plainness.

Liu Renfeng was speechless, his face was flushed, his wife was also a lady, she knew everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she was especially good at graceful poetry. Scratching his scalp, he said, "There are so many academies in the world. Why do you need to start another one, sir? There are several well-known academies in Hangzhou, so it's enough to let the primary school merge."

"Although there are many academies in the world, they are all the same, and there is nothing new at all. The academies I want to establish are not for fame and fortune. I want to cultivate people who are truly knowledgeable. They should be talents who really promote development, not one after another. .” Wang Xiu’s words were blunt.

Liu Renfeng was stunned, and Wang Xiu spoke harshly to him for the first time, refuting him unceremoniously, and couldn't help but bitter in his mouth.

Wang Xiu ignored Liu Renfeng, turned to Zhang Ling and Lin Silang, and said with a faint smile, "Do you know that there are some great Confucian scholars who are famous all over the world, but their contribution to the times in this life is far inferior to Fat Dun and Xiao Dai."

Liu Renfeng let the man who was about to drown, grabbed a straw, and argued: "Could it be that a master is not as good as a farmer?"

"Don't say that panic is like a bereaved dog. People are valuable because they know themselves. The way of heaven lies in balance. The four seasons are distinct, and the grains are plentiful. If there is no season, there will be chaos in the world. It is this reason that scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are indispensable, and they perform their duties. Don't look down on anyone, let me ask you, do you have the confidence to regain the lost ground?" Wang Xiu said bluntly.
