Prime Minister

Chapter 319 Worry
Seeing that Wang Anshi didn't seem to have any impression of him when he saw him, Wang Kui couldn't help but wonder how the other party didn't know him because he had repeatedly defended him in the palace examination.

Wang Kui thought that he would not have misunderstood the person, but when he took a closer look, the other person was wearing a dirty robe with a dirty face, but his eyes were piercing, who else could it be if it wasn't Wang Anshi.

Wang Kui reported his name again, and the other party seemed to remember: "So it's Junmin, I don't know what's going on? He wants to speak on this thoroughfare."

Wang Kui said sincerely: "Wang Sheren, I don't have my name after passing the pavilion test. I don't know if I made a mistake. I want to seek justice."

Wang Anshi said: "Qualified is the first class, and failure is blue thread. What's wrong?"

Wang Kui said: "I want to know the reason. Zhang Duzhi and Su Zizhan are all in the third class. I won't even be in the third class."

Wang Anshi said: "The old man understands, you should go to the Fu Xianggong's mansion to ask about this matter, you shouldn't come here to ask me."

Wang Kui seemed to have thought of something, so he said: "Wang Sheren means that Su and Zhang were recommended by Han Xianggong, so the examiners selected them as third-class, and I was not recommended by Han Xianggong, so I was not recommended." Enter and wait."

Wang Anshi looked at Wang Kui again, and said after a while, "You should go to the Fu Xianggong's mansion to ask!"

After all, Wang Anshi was about to leave, and Wang Kui immediately caught up and said, "Fu Xianggong is now in Xijing, and Wang Sheren has no one here to help me except you. Wang has always kept in mind your kindness for protecting me in the palace test. In the future, I will definitely answer like a dog and a horse."

Wang Anshi shook his head and said: "In the palace examination, I uphold the public heart to promote virtuous persons for the country. I don't have the slightest intention of giving and receiving the kindness of the generals and officials privately. You don't have to come looking for me."

Wang Kui's heart skipped a beat, when he heard that Wang Anshi had done a lot for himself in the imperial examination, he quarreled with Yang Tian and even offended his future in-law Zhang Yue, how could he be so indifferent now.

Wang Kui knew that the other party would not help him, but he still refused to give up, bit the bullet and almost begged: "Wang Sheren, there have been some rumors outside, but they were all slanderous things made up by others. Wang has a clear conscience in his life, please also ask Wang She Ren sees helping me again in the name of Fu Xiang."

Wang Anshi was stunned, and asked: "Junmin, did Mr. Fu never tell you that your engagement with the rich family has already been cancelled?"

Wang Kui froze in place when he heard the words.

"Wang Sheren was joking. How could this happen? I haven't heard of it. If it's true, why would Fu Xianggong send me to the university?" Wang Kuiqiang said with a smile.

Wang Anshi said a little impatiently: "I don't know about this, but I won't lie to you, why don't you ask Bachelor Feng first, I'm busy and take the lead."

After speaking, Wang Anshi walked away, leaving Wang Kui in a daze.

"How could this happen?"

Wang Kui shook his head and said to himself, suddenly he seemed to think of something, and his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Give way to the respected driver, don't block Yijia."

The Imperial Army in front of the Sherenyuan made a sound.

Wang Kui nodded and walked down the street like a walking dead.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Wang Kui suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the people coming and going on the street, and suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled miserably.

"Fu Bi, you betrayed me. You canceled the engagement and asked me to take the exam. Didn't you become the laughing stock of everyone? Su'e, you are so ruthless that you don't tell me anything. .”

"Love me, bear me, do you see that I have lost power, are you all here to add insult to injury?"

"I knew earlier that this world is full of cruel people. How could you think highly of me?"

After speaking, Wang Kui laughed like crazy, and then he walked aimlessly on the street as if he was drunk. Finally, the soles of his feet slipped, and he fell into the mud beside the road, his clothes were dirty.

But Wang Kui didn't notice it at all, he was crying and laughing at the base of the wall.

Pedestrians on the side of the road saw Wang Kui like this, and all avoided him one after another, pointing at him.

"Daddy, is this person crazy?"

"Listen to what he seems to be muttering."

"The Guiying that he said, who is Guiying?"

"It seems that he is worried about his sweetheart and hurt by love. No wonder he is so depressed."

"It seems that he is also a scholar, but he is also an infatuated person."

"How can a good scholar be so refined, but it's pitiful."

But it is said that Zhang Yue entered the imperial examination with the third class in the pavilion examination. Although this is not the last rank, it means that there is at least one fifth rank in the imperial examination.

After learning about his ranking, the first thing Zhang Yue did was to go to Ouyang Xiu's residence to thank him for his recommendation.

After Zhang Yue arrived at Ouyang Xiu's mansion, Ouyang Xiu hadn't let him go yet.He sat and chatted with Ouyang Fa, Ouyang Fei, and Ouyang Xiu's youngest son Ouyang Bian.

Anyway, Ouyangfa was happier knowing that Zhang Yue had passed the imperial examination than he was.And my own wife was also happy, and specially brought jasmine tea to entertain Zhang Yue.

The refreshing aroma overflowed the tip of the nose, and suddenly the heat faded away, leaving only a room like spring.

Zhang Yue recalled that when he ran into Wu Anshi when he was looking for jasmine tea, he almost missed the marriage because of a momentary conflict of words, and almost failed the beauty's kindness.

Now that times have changed, it's a different feeling to think about it carefully.

Soon Ouyang Xiu returned home.

As soon as he saw Zhang Yue, he smiled and said: "What a good Zhang San, do you know that the two governments and the two systems are arguing endlessly because of you?"

Zhang Yue smiled and said in his heart, isn't it because you insisted on calling me back for the exam and making me act like this.

Zhang Yue said on the face: "Uncle Meng loves you, otherwise my nephew will not be able to win this opportunity."

Ouyang Xiu said with a chuckle: "It is a grand event in ancient and modern times that the two leaders are in the world. As for the third class in the system, I didn't even dare to think about it when the old man recommended you. Now after the discussion between the two governments and the two systems, I thought you and your son would be tested. Zhan can only enter the third class alone, now you need to earn this face for the old man."

Zhang Yue said heartily, it is too sensational to try two and third classes in the court.Therefore, one must be eliminated in the final imperial examination, so only one of myself and Su Shi can enter the third class.

Ouyang Fa said with a low smile: "A third class is astonishing in the past, let alone two people, let them go to the exam. Daddy has the palm of his hand with you and Zizhan, so it's hard to say which one, but I only hope that you will be in the third class. "

Zhang Yue and Ouyang Fa looked at each other and smiled when they heard the words.

After hearing this, Ouyang Xiu smiled and said to Ouyang: "You have also arranged for Daddy."

Speaking of this, Ouyang Fa asked the two younger brothers to go back to the room first, and then said: "Actually, I heard that two and three classes may not be necessary. I heard that Wang Sheren strongly opposed this theory, not that Han Xianggong and father were unwilling to fight hard."

Zhang Yue said in his heart, I am so good to you, Wang Anshi.

Ouyang Xiu said: "Hey, why did Fa'er's words spread like this? Wang Jiefu didn't say this. Don't put everything on his head. As a human being, we say one is one and two is two."

Ouyang Fa first learned Ouyang Xiu's lesson, and then said: "Father, if you hadn't been recommended many times back then, Wang Jiefu would not be where he is today, now..."

Ouyang Xiudao: "I don't blame Jiefu for this matter, but I did not help him speak in front of Han Xianggong, and asked him to compromise. How can he accept his rather straightforward temperament."

Ouyang found out that Wang Anshi and Han Qi are in conflict.As a friend of the two, his father should ease the situation for the two.But his father asked Wang Anshi to take a step back, so he said that he was sorry for Wang Anshi.

It is a critical time for Han Qi to take up the post of Minister Zhaowen.Han Qi also promised that if he became Chancellor of Zhaowen, he would promote his father to be a political advisor.At this stall, my father could not have the slightest disagreement with Han Qi no matter what.

Not to mention speaking for Wang Anshi, what's more, Wang Anshi's blatantly cutting the face of the prime minister was at a critical time when Han Qi was about to be promoted to Zhaowen chancellor.

At the beginning, Li Shizhong, who mentioned Guangnan West Road, impeached Zhizhou Xiao Zhu.The imperial court put Xiao Zhu in charge and demoted him to be the Deputy Envoy of Taishan Tuanlian.

At that time, Wang Anshi wrote the words for demoting the official, and the beginning of the word that was awarded by Zhongshu arrived at the Sherenyuan. Wang Anshi thought that there were some words in the beginning of the word that were inappropriate and asked for revision.

Zhongshu ignored Wang Anshi's request, and a few days later the imperial court issued an edict ordering the Sherenyuan not to modify the text.

Wang Anshi was furious and wrote a memorial to scold the ruling power, and asked all his colleagues in the Sherenyuan to sign it.

Although there was no roll call, after Fu Bi resigned, only Han Qi was alone, so there was no need to guess who was scolding.

In Wang Anshi's memorial, it is said that "creating laws and decrees with imperial edicts, doing whatever you want, and doing what is right and wrong" are extremely severe criticisms, and every sentence is aimed at Han Qi.

But Ouyang Fa believes that Wang Anshi is supported by his father no matter what, and he should not complain, but should accept his father's mediation.

Zhang Yue didn't know why Ouyang Xiu refused to speak up for Wang Anshi, but he didn't intervene. The fight between big bosses can't be explained clearly in a few words.It's not that everything is aimed at anyone, it may be that the gods were accidentally injured in a fight, and it is not certain.

But in the past, Ouyang Xiu and his son talked about romance, poems and articles with him, but now when they talk about official affairs, they obviously regard themselves as their own, and this is the most important thing.

Ouyang Fa said: "Father, there are rumors in the court that Wang Jiefu resigned from office at Bashu when he was repairing the daily notes, but now he knows that the patent has been issued, but he has not resigned. This is extremely hypocritical."

Zhang Yue said: "Brother Bohe, when the daily notes were revised, it was Fu Xianggong who proposed it. Now you know that the imperial edict was proposed by Han Xianggong."

Before Ouyang Fa understood Zhang Yue's intention, Ouyang Xiu laughed and said: "Du Zhizhen has seen things clearly. In fact, Jiefu and I once said that although Fu Xianggong Ding You did not resign, he will return to the court in two years. .Han Xianggong's move is like cutting off the way out."

Ouyang Fa said: "But daddy, Mr. Fu will not be admitted to Zhongshu in the future, but he can still serve as a privy envoy."

But Ouyang Fa also said that this is too far-fetched: "I heard that Wang Jiefu was quite discord when he was in Han Xianggong's shogunate."

Ouyang Xiu said: "I haven't heard Jiefu say this, but he once said that Xixia suffered repeated defeats back then, Mr. Han could hardly escape the blame, and his talent was an embarrassing responsibility."

Zhang Yue thought to himself, isn't Wang Anshi's comment to Han Qi back then worth nothing except being handsome?

Why is it similar to me?
Zhang Yue thought of this and felt a sense of fate for Han Qi.

Why do handsome people like us have to bear the pain of not being understood by the world.

Ouyang Xiu said worriedly: "I know Jiefu's temperament, he won't let it go like this."
