Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 669

Sun Fu's hand shaking the cup slightly, but he still picked up the tea.Although a gentleman disdains authority and vulgar things, who can be completely exempt from vulgarity?As a prime minister who also studies national history, who can really let go?Yes, I'm afraid not too many, at least he can't.

This small movement did not escape Tang Ge's gaze, and he asked coldly, "I went to see Wang Wenshi."

Sun Fu was not surprised, suppressed the disappointment in his heart, glanced at Tang Ge lightly, and said calmly: "I would like to hear more about it."

Tang Ge glanced at Sun Fu, slowly put down the cup in his hand, and said indifferently: "I asked Wang Wenshi for a promise, that's all."

"Promise?" Sun Fu was stunned, and smiled noncommittally: "The reason why I invite the county is that brother Qin can control the capital, and use Li Boji as a support to contain Wang Wenshi. How much money is the promise worth?"

Tang Ge couldn't hear the dissatisfaction in Sun Fu's words. Many forces accused Sun Fu of being prime minister for eight years, but he made no achievements. Fan Zongyin, Shen Mo and others are the core.

These people should not be underestimated. They control the tax revenue of the sixth floor of the Song Dynasty, and they have the support of the guards and navy, so they have a very important voice.

In order to restrain Wang Xiu and reduce the pressure from the government and the opposition, Sun Fu resolutely spared Wang Xiu a suitable post, which was a clever move.

He also understood that Sun Fu was not willing to leave the center. It was unimaginable for Sun Fu to make such a sacrifice during the Jingkang period. He shook his head and sighed: "There are some things that need to be clarified! I have an excuse to meet Wang Wenshi, I did get his promise to let him stop for a few years."

Sun Fu's face changed, he thought for a while, and said: "It seems that it is not very useful."

"It's all about human effort, as long as there are enough benefits." Tang Ge tapped the teacup with his fingertips, and his eyes stayed on the copper stove on the table.

Sun Fu remained silent, his face uncertain, secretly accusing Tang Ge of being confused.Interests, what kind of interests do you need to impress Wang Xiu, political promises are like the smiling faces of female singers, they are only worth a few pennies, how can they be taken seriously.Suddenly, he really regretted it a little. He shouldn't give up the prime minister, and he should persevere no matter how difficult it is.

"Since the Renzong Dynasty, although civil and military have their own affairs, they are actually connected as one. How can Wang Wenshi not know that Brother Qin and Meng Lang are gone! However, it is inevitable for Wang Wenshi to enter the two mansions, and I should abdicate to let the virtuous. Li Boji is in the same boat, and Wang Wenshi is not easy to shake."

Tang Ge knew that Sun Fu was already somewhat dissatisfied with him, and he also wavered about whether he could persuade Wang Xiu, but he still believed that the choice was correct. Wang Xiu's leadership and Li Gang's leadership were not bad choices, at least beneficial to stabilizing the court .

Sun Fu pondered for a while, and said coldly: "Li Boji Jie Yanhe Wulu, he admires Wang Xiu's new military system."

With a thought in Tang Ge's mind, he savored Sun Fu's implication, implying that Li Gang and Wang Xiu had some things in common, which would definitely not be a good thing to contain the development of Wang Xiu's forces, and said right now: "Li Boji is upright, with a clear distinction between public and private, and Wang Xiu advocates a new military system. It is indeed unique, and its reform is also a cure for the century-old illness of the Great Song Dynasty, and I am still optimistic about it in terms of facts."

Sun Fu wanted to remind Tang Ge to prevent Wang Xiu and Li Gang from colluding in private. In fact, he also knew Li Gang very well and didn't think they would get together.

On the contrary, Li Gang has a strong desire for power, and he will definitely try to take back the power of the guard navy. The result can be imagined, it is almost Wang Xiu's personal soldier, Li Gang is not Wu Min, and he will definitely confront Wang Xiu.

Thinking of this level, he didn't want to say any more, and said: "Knowing people, I am not as good as old man Qin. Wang Wen is really loyal to the emperor and the country, but it is really worrying. I heard that he is organizing Zhongshan Academy again, Wangmen The power is gradually showing its wings, given time, I am afraid that all the dignitaries in the temple will be the children of the king's family!"

Tang Ge was secretly shocked when he heard it. Sun Fu's words hit him like a heavy hammer. He was not without awareness of precautions. Yuquanshan Academy developed too fast, not only in reputation but also in financial resources, and even talents were like a blowout. scary.

Since the first year of Jianyan in Dazhong, he has understood that Wang Xiu started to cultivate strength, but he is still willing to think about the good, who can not have his own power?All the important ministers say that a gentleman is not a party, but in private, which one is not cultivating power.

However, with the birth of Yuquanshan Academy, he felt the pressure. It was an academy dominated by Wang Xiu's thoughts, and a large number of scholars inevitably bear Wang Xiu's imprint.

It’s really a wonderful move to directly abandon the dignitaries of the dynasty and systematically cultivate talents from the bottom. Maybe it’s not obvious today. After more than ten or even twenty years, how far will this steady stream of talent resources develop? ?
"After all, Wang Xiu has made contributions to the country, and his talents are rare. It is also a good thing to run an academy. How can we stop it?" His words were very weak.

Sun Fu felt Tang Ge's subtle changes, but he didn't care. He took the teapot from the copper stove, poured a cup of tea for himself and Tang Ge, and then said indifferently: "I don't know if Brother Qin has read Wang Wenshi's latest masterpiece?"

"It's nothing more than those miscellaneous remarks. Brother Boye has worried too much. What's the matter with you? We don't need to be mediocre." Tang Ge said indifferently.

Sometimes people are really complicated. Tang Ge understands the hidden dangers of Wang Xiu's establishment of the academy, but he can't stop it, and even has a little appreciation.

From an academic and social point of view, Yuquanshan Academy has its own characteristics. It not only creates a lot of wealth with practical value, but also scholars are no longer constrained by poetry and books. shine.

Seeing that Tang Ge tried his best to avoid it, Sun Fu didn't investigate further, Nian Xu laughed and said, "Brother Qin, I want to apply for the academy, and I will die in Lin Quan."

Tang Ge was stunned, and immediately understood what Sun Fu meant. He was reminding him to compete for students, and he said sternly: "However, in terms of facts, the advantages of Yuquanshan Academy outweigh the disadvantages. As long as they are well induced, the scholars will still have a lot of benefits." for."

Sun Fu poured himself a cup of tea leisurely, and said with a smile: "Uncle Li is here, and I asked him what he is doing so much. Come, brother Qin, have some tea."

In fact, Wang Xiu couldn't be idle at all. He was pestered by Hong Zhen as soon as he had some free time.

Zhongshan Academy is definitely an academy solely owned by the Wang family. Wang Qingzhu circled more than a dozen pieces of land with a stroke of his pen, not counting the two small hills surrounded, and slowly built it into a manor-style academy with complete pavilions and pavilions. It's the ultimate luxury.

When Wang Xiu saw this majestic academy, she couldn't believe her eyes, the elder sister was too brave, how much money would it cost!Is it necessary to organize a group of people to fight for the patent of Yuquanshan Research Institute?
