Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

Yuanfu second year
New Year's Eve party.

"I would like to inform the officials that this year our Song Dynasty's tax revenue will increase by as much as 10%, reaching a total of 11 million yuan."

In Chui Gong Hall, Zhang Dun said proudly.

The New Party has always been famous for its financial management. The huge increase in taxes in the Song Dynasty was not only due to the reform, but also the huge wealth brought by the Maritime Silk Road. Of course, Zhang Dun attributed all of these to the New Party.

“The annual increase is as high as 10%!”

Zhao Xu couldn't help but be overjoyed. The Song Dynasty borrowed a lot of national debt every year. Now the tax of 10 million yuan a year was enough to allow the Song Dynasty court to borrow more national debt.

Yes!

Today's Song Dynasty is booming, with a lot of waste waiting to be done, and a lot of money is needed.

And Zhao Xu wanted to complete the great cause of unifying the world, which required a lot of money, and the taxes of the Song Dynasty increased a lot. The first thing that Zhao Xu thought of was not to repay these national debts, but to borrow more national debts.

Cai Jing on the side took the opportunity to say respectfully: "Not only has the imperial court's taxation increased significantly, but the people have also lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the world is at peace, all thanks to the wisdom of the officials and their reform and development!"

"The officials are wise!"

All the new parties complimented one after another.

Zhao Xu immediately smiled. Adhering to the new law was the move Zhao Xu was most proud of, and today he finally reaped the most generous reward.

"It's all thanks to the help of all my dear friends. I will definitely be rewarded heavily!" Zhao Xu said with a big wave of his hand.

"Thank you, officials!"

Everyone in the New Party was immediately overjoyed. The situation in the Song Dynasty was very good. The new law presided over by the New Party took the greatest credit and rewarded according to merit. Naturally, most of the credit fell on the people of the New Party.

"The villain succeeds!"

When the old party officials saw this, they immediately gritted their teeth.

However, they had nothing to do about this situation. The increasing taxes of the Song Dynasty were the new party's biggest source of confidence, while the old party could only stare.

Moreover, seeing a group of people from the new party getting promoted and getting rich makes people from the old party not to mention how uncomfortable they are.

Among the three parties, the New Party is aggressive, and the Medical Party is maturing day by day relying on the power of Prime Minister Su Song and the evil doctor Fan Zheng. In addition, the Medical Party is also at its peak, and the Medical Party is also at its peak. Only the Old Party can only retreat steadily. It can even be said that It was a complete failure.

"No, if this continues, my old party may no longer have a foothold." After the court, the old party officials gathered together to censor Yang Weihen and said.

"Now there is nothing we can do about it. The new party is at its peak, it has brought such huge wealth to the officials, and is very popular with them. What can we do?" A scholar-bureaucrat said helplessly.

Yang Wei couldn't help feeling helpless. Financial management was the shortcomings of the old party. It couldn't compete with the new party. He could only watch the new party grow bigger.

"There is also Fan Xianggong, who is obviously the leader of my old party, but he is the father of the evil doctor Fan Zheng. He still doesn't care. Even if our old party wants to compete with the new party, it is leaderless!" Another official sighed sadly.

The old party officials hated Fan Chunli, the leader of the old party. Fan Chunli was indeed from the old party, but his son Fan Zheng was a more radical reformist than the new party. He even beguiled officials and founded the Medical Party.

All the old party officials suddenly became sad. If this continues, they may lose their sacred hearts little by little and are destined to be suppressed by the new party.

"Mr. Fan is here!"

Suddenly, a notification came, which immediately surprised all the old party officials.

Because although Fan Chunli was elected as the leader of the old party by them, he was not keen on party struggle. In addition, he was the father of the evil doctor Fan Zheng and did not oppose reforms.

"I've met Fan Xianggong!"

Yang Wei led a group of people from the old party to bow and said, Fan Chunli is the leader of the old party after all, and everyone must not be rude to him.

Fan Chunli looked around at the people of the old party and said with a serious expression: "You are all the backbone of the old party. Now that the new party is gaining momentum, I wonder if you have any good strategies to revive the old party."

"Reinvigorate the old party!"

Yang Wei and others could not help but look at Fan Chunli in astonishment. He did not expect that Fan Chunli, who had a steady personality, would take the initiative to start a party struggle with the New Party this time.

Yang Wei couldn't help being shocked, and then said proudly: "If we want to revive the old party, we must naturally work together to advise the officials to stay away from the villains, to be diligent in political affairs, and not to compete with the people for profit!"

"Of course... what Mr. Yang said is true!" A group of old party officials agreed.

Fan Chunli couldn't help but shook his head. These old party officials usually shouted false and empty slogans, and they even gave guidance from the moral high ground. It's no wonder that officials would be close to the new party who are good at financial management.

Fan Chunli said perfunctorily: "What you gentlemen said is true. However, now the Guan family is a rare hero in the Song Dynasty. He wants to destroy Xixia in the west and recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, so he will reuse the new party who is good at financial management. If only If so, I’m afraid it will be difficult to defeat the new party.”

"Uh!"

All the old party officials fell silent. They naturally knew the current situation. What they shouted were false and empty slogans. The new party could earn a steady stream of money for the officials, so naturally they could not compare with it.

"What do you mean by Fan Xianggong?" Yang Wei asked.

Fan Chunli smiled slightly and said: "Since the new party has prospered due to the reform, and the officials also insist on the reform, if the old party wants to defeat the new party, there is only one way, and that is for the old party to also reform!"

"Does the old party also want to reform?"

As soon as Fan Chunli said this, everyone was in an uproar.

"But..." an old party official said awkwardly. As we all know, the old party is the most firmly opposed to reform. If the old party starts to reform now, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?

"I dare to ask Fan Xianggong, how should the old party reform?" Yang Weiyi gritted his teeth and said.

He knew that what Fan Chunli said was the truth. After all, if the old party could come up with better reform strategies, it would naturally make the officials look at the old party with admiration.

"The truth is that we are going to restart the Qingli New Deal!" Fan Chunli revealed his plan when he saw that the time was right.

"Qingli New Deal!"

When everyone in the old party heard this, their expressions changed. No one thought that Fan Chunli's plan would be so bold. You must know that when the Qingli New Deal came out, the whole court was in an uproar. At that time, there was no dispute between the old and the new parties. Fan Zhongyan was appointed prime minister, supported by many senior officials, and Renzong supported him. Even so, the Qingli New Deal was only implemented for one year.

There is only one reason, and that is that the Qingli New Deal affected the interests of scholar-bureaucrats.

Yang Wei frowned and said, "Mr. Fan, don't be joking. The Qingli New Deal has caused an uproar throughout the country. If we implement the Qingli New Deal, we may inevitably make the same mistake again."

The old party is already weaker than the new party. If the Qingli New Deal is implemented again, I am afraid that even its own people will oppose the Qingli New Deal.

The expressions of other old party officials also changed. They were naturally very familiar with the Qingli New Deal. Whether it was deposing Ming Zhi, suppressing luck, or even equalizing public land, they would greatly harm the interests of officials, and they naturally did not want their own interests to be damaged.

Fan Chunli said proudly: "Don't worry, everyone, the failure of the Qingli New Deal did have some shortcomings. For this reason, the truth has been improved on the basis of the Qingli New Deal. It is divided into: grinding new methods, taking exams to succeed, lucky ones must take exams, and cultivating honest silver... …etc."

Fan Chunli introduced the new Qingli New Deal one by one, which immediately made many old party officials think deeply.

The new Mokan Law no longer allows officials to be promoted every three years, but to increase their salary every three years. You must know that official position and salary have always been linked. This is also the reason why many officials opposed Fan Zhongyan's Ming Dynasty depose. It simply cut off their financial resources.

The new grinding method, coupled with the examination method, allows officials' salaries to increase with age, without affecting the officials' financial resources, and at the same time, it can select talents for the court.

As for the compulsory examination for those who are lucky enough to enter, it has also transferred the contradiction like Yanglianyin, and even won the support of many scholar-bureaucrats, greatly reducing the resistance to implementation.

"This new Qingli New Deal came from Fan Taicheng." Yang Wei suddenly said bluntly.

"what!"

Fan Chunli's expression changed involuntarily, and after hesitating for a while, he nodded helplessly.

Just when Fan Chunli thought that he would definitely encounter Yang Wei's opposition, he did not expect that Yang Wei changed his words and said happily: "That's good. With this method, it will be done."

"Yang Yushi!"

Fan Chunli looked at Yang Wei in confusion. He knew that Yang Wei had never dealt with Fan Zheng, but he did not expect that he would support the Qingli New Deal created by Fan Zheng so much.

Yang Wei smiled brightly and said: "Fan Xianggong will definitely think that Yang has a problem with the son. However, it is just a political opinion and has no personal grudges. I think the new law also had many shortcomings. In the end, it was through the evil doctor Fan Zheng. This new law is so successful because of the reform of the party, and the Qingli New Deal will definitely have new opportunities to revive our old party!"

"Master Yang is too gullible!"

Some old party officials frowned and said that they did not want the Qingli New Deal to endanger their own interests.

Yang Wei looked around and solemnly said: "Gullible? The evil doctor Fan Zheng is indeed at odds with the old party. However, you all know very well that the Qingli New Deal is Wen Zhenggong's last wish, and this restart is led by Fan Xianggong. The evil doctor Fan Zheng will definitely not They will play tricks on the new law, and even try to improve the new law as much as possible. In other words, this restart of the Qingli New Deal will definitely succeed. "

All the old party officials couldn't help but feel moved in their hearts, the evil doctor Fan Zheng's evil prescription was indestructible, not to mention that this time the evil doctor Fan was working on the Qingli New Deal of his ancestor Fan Zhongyan, so he would naturally do his best.

However, some officials are still a little dissatisfied. After all, even if the Qingli New Deal is restarted and some changes are made, it will still damage the interests of scholar-bureaucrats to some extent.

Even if Fan Chunli didn't know the psychology of these officials, he snorted coldly: "Now that the old party has been suppressed by the new party, you are still thinking about your own petty profits. If the old party does not restart the Qingli New Deal, you will have How can we fight against the new party?”

All the officials fell silent.

There were two reforms in the Song Dynasty. In addition to Wang Anshi's new law, it was Fan Zhongyan's Qingli New Deal. Now that the New Party is booming because of Fan Zhongyan's new law, the old party can only rely on Fan Zhongyan's Qingli New Deal to fight against the new party's new law.

"Although the truth is that the traitor is the father of the traitor, the traitor is closer to the medical family. If you don't support the restart of the Qingli New Deal, I'm afraid the traitor will choose to restart the medical party, not to mention that there is a fourth brother in the court, Fan Chunchun, who is also Members of the Fan family are also qualified to restart the Qingli New Deal. By then, I am afraid that the old party will no longer be able to stand up," Fan Chunli said.

All the old party members were shocked.

Yes, Fan Chunli is not the only one in the DPRK. After Fan Zhongyan, both the evil doctor Fan Zheng and Fan Chunli are capable of restarting the Qingli New Deal. Not to mention that Fan Chunli serves in the Ministry of Household Affairs and is closer to the New Party. If the New Party learns that the Qingli New Deal will be restarted, Regarding the New Deal, I am afraid that they will not hesitate to use this method to drive out the old party.

"Restarting the Qingli New Deal is Fan Wenzheng's last wish, and we will definitely support it!" Yang Wei took the lead when he saw this.

"Yes, since the new party can change the law, why can't my old party change the law?"

Other old party officials responded one after another.

The restarted Qingli New Deal is more comprehensive and reasonable. Although it will damage the interests of some officials, it is better than being driven out by the new party.

Only by using the Qingli New Deal to fight against the New Party can the old party have a chance to regain more power. Compared with this loss, it is completely acceptable, not to mention that the new laws of the Qingli New Deal mainly focus on internal affairs and are even more appealing to the old party.

"Okay, this time, let's show the world that my old party can also succeed in reforming the law."

Fan Chunli said loudly.

Seeing how smoothly the old party supported the restart of the Qingli New Deal, Fan Chunli was greatly convinced by his son, and he was even more confident in the new laws of the Qingli New Deal created by Fan Zheng.

........................

"I have informed the officials that although the Song Dynasty's reform had some achievements, it only touched on the surface and treated the symptoms but not the root cause."

In Chui Gong Hall, Fan Chunli immediately submitted a letter after receiving the support of the old party.

“Treat the symptoms but not the root cause!”

When everyone in the New Party saw Fan Chunli slandering the new law, they couldn't help but become furious.

"It's nonsense. Since the Song Dynasty implemented the new law, the country has been peaceful and the people are safe. It has defeated Xixia externally one after another. Domestic taxes have increased sharply and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The old party has stood by and slandered the new law!" Seeing Fan Chunli personally attack the new law, Zhang Dun couldn't hold it anymore. Take the initiative to rebut verbally.

"Of course, the achievements of the new law have attracted worldwide attention and are visible to all, and cannot be tolerated by the old party's slander." Cai Jing angrily rebuked.

A group of New Party officials agreed one after another, preparing to take the opportunity to attack Fan Chunli and pull Fan Chunli down in one fell swoop.

Yang Wei retorted without fear: "It's obvious to all! In my opinion, Fan Taicheng and his gunpowder weapons were the first contributors to the Song Dynasty's repeated victories in external battles. The main source of revenue for the sudden increase in taxes was the Maritime Silk Road opened by Eunuch Tong. , is this also the result of the new law?”

The New Party officials were suddenly silent. The current situation of the Song Dynasty was indeed very good. However, this was not the result of the New Party alone. The evil doctor Fan Zheng's doctors, gunpowder weapons, and the Maritime Silk Road also contributed greatly.

"Of course! Since the implementation of the new law, certain achievements have indeed been made, but it is not without hidden dangers. The increasing national debt of the Song Dynasty is a clear example." Fan Chunli said without mercy.

Zhang Dun's expression suddenly changed. Fan Chunli's move can be said to be the key to the new law. The great achievements of the new law were based on the surge in the national debt of the Song Dynasty.

Excluding the contribution of gunpowder weapons and the Maritime Silk Road, the contribution of the New Party is immediately reduced to the minimum. (End of chapter)
