Chapter 254 Concubine Rong

Thinking of this, Wang Anshi stood up and bowed to Li An.

"Brother Jiefu, what are you doing?"

Li An quickly stood up and hid, looking at Wang Anshi suspiciously.

Wang Anshi said: "Zi Qian, listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Your words are like seeing the mist from the clouds, making me suddenly enlightened. I deserve this gift."

"Brother Jiefu said something serious, this is just a family opinion." Li An stretched out his hand to support him.

"No, what you said makes sense." Wang Anshi said firmly: "If I can help the Song Dynasty get rid of its long-standing shortcomings and regain its lost territory, I will have no regrets in this life."

"Brother Jiefu, even if you only test it in one place, there are still many obstacles. Now the court is arguing over the appointment of the prince. We still need to wait for the opportunity." Li An reminded.

Ang Lee actually doesn't believe much in charisma.

But at this moment, Wang Anshi had a kind of spirit that would make me die even though tens of thousands of people have died.

With such a huge difficulty, if we don’t have a stubborn character, how can we talk about reform?

If you fail, the end will be even more miserable.

Li An: "..."

There have been many reforms in history, but there have been few successful examples.

Considering Wang Anshi's character, he might leave him and go to the palace to find an official.

How many reformers have had good endings since ancient times?

But he just felt from Wang Anshi's words that he was very anxious.

Originally, Ang Lee agreed with the historical evaluation of Wang Anshi's stubbornness, but now he had a different idea.

That is to say, the Song Dynasty did not kill scholar-bureaucrats. Otherwise, after Fan Xianggong and Wang Anshi failed, their lives would probably be in danger.

Although the two time and spaces are slightly different, the current situation is not suitable for reform.

Because the obstacles to the reform are too great, it can even be said that presiding over the reform is standing in opposition to people of all classes.

Li An admires those who serve the country wholeheartedly, but even though he admires them, he himself does not have such noble sentiments.

Wang Anshi didn't listen to what he just said.

"Thank you Ziqian for reminding me, I will discuss it with you when I have time in the future. I wish Ziqian will go to high school as soon as possible and show his ambitions with me." Wang Anshi said.

Wouldn't Wang Anshi regard him as a confidant because of his words?
To be honest, if you let him talk about it, if you really let him participate in the reform, he will not be so stupid.

If he succeeds, he will be killed by the emperor to appease the anger of his ministers.

Li An felt that if Wang Anshi wanted to change the law, he would have to wait until Zhao Zongquan's son succeeded him.

Wang Anshi didn't know what Li An was thinking, so he said goodbye directly.

Li An sent him outside the door, watched him leave in the carriage, and sighed silently.

Even if Wang Anshi really asked for permission from the government to experiment with the New Deal at the local level, it would actually have no effect.

Li An was very moved and couldn't help but remind him again.

It's not that Li Anshi's previous words were deceiving him, but Wang Anshi's policy is indeed feasible.

The failure of the reform was not due to policies, but to people.

Even if Wang Anshi's experiment is successful, he will still have to rely on officials from all over the world to implement it nationwide.

The final result is probably similar.

Li An didn't know whether his words were good or bad for Wang Anshi.

Seeing the remarkable results after the experiment, Wang Anshi is afraid that he will become even more stubborn after the formal reform.

After all, others have tested it and his policy is feasible.

...Wang Anshi didn't know this. After returning from Li An, he went home and locked himself in the study. After thinking carefully about Li An's words, he wrote a memorial.

He did not submit the memorial to the official through the Ministry of Secretariat. Instead, early the next morning, he changed into official uniform and came to the palace with the memorial.

……

In Liyu Pavilion, Concubine Rong's bedroom, the official was sleeping soundly with Concubine Rong in his arms.

Although the official family had been depressed for a while because of the prince's death, they were still diligent in their duties.

At this time in the past, he would have gotten up early to review the memorials, so he had some leisure time during the Chinese New Year.

Last night, I did not go to bed until late at night, so I slept a little longer this morning.

The maids and eunuchs in Liyu Pavilion had received orders, so naturally they did not dare to wake up the officials.

After an unknown amount of time, the official opened his eyes and met Concubine Rong's charming face.

"When did my concubine wake up? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" the official said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I have just woken up, so I didn't dare to move for fear of disturbing Your Majesty." Concubine Rong said with a smile.

"What time is it now?" the official asked.

"It's just past midnight. If the officials haven't had a good rest, they can take a nap again," Concubine Rong said.

"Is it already time?"

The official sighed after hearing this and said: "I am old. When I first took charge, I only slept for two hours a day and I was full of energy."

A blush appeared on Concubine Rong's face, and she said sweetly: "The official family is not old. Last night, the dragon and the tiger were fierce. They were even more powerful than when I first entered the palace."

"Haha." The official laughed loudly when he heard this, patted Concubine Rong's pink back, and said, "Okay, get up. If I don't get up again, my husband-in-law will talk about me again."

"Yes."

Concubine Rong shouted, and the maids waiting outside the door filed in, waiting for the officials and her to wash and dress.

After washing, the serving maid stepped back with the utensils in hand.

The officials and concubine Rong came out of the inner room and came to the outer hall.

Breakfast is already set on the table in the hall.

When an old man saw the official coming out, he saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Judge Wang has been waiting for more than half an hour to see you."

The official had just sat down and was about to have a meal. When he heard this, he frowned and said, "Tell him that I have something to do and don't have time to see him. Let him go back."

"Yes." The old lady responded and withdrew.

Concubine Rong served the official a bowl of porridge, put it on the table in front of him, and said: "Your Majesty, since Mr. Wang has been waiting for so long, he may have something important to do. Your Majesty's refusal may mean that the minister in the court will I also want to say that my concubine has seduced Your Majesty."

"Why did my beloved concubine say that? Is someone talking nonsense?" The official frowned.

"Your Majesty is resting here every night during this period. It is inevitable that there will be some gossip. These concubines don't care. However, state affairs are important, and your majesty cannot delay state affairs." Concubine Rong said.

"Don't worry, my beloved, I will have someone investigate this matter to see who is talking nonsense. As for the fact that I don't see Wang Anshi, it's because this man has been making reforms every two days, which makes me tire of it." The official said with an ugly expression.

He and the Queen were both very young, and the Queen had given birth to a prince in his early years, who died shortly after, so she suffered a great blow, and had no relationship with him, and she never got pregnant again.

The official family is considered a veteran, so naturally they will not focus on the queen.

The young and beautiful Concubine Rong was his first choice.

For the sake of his son, the official family works hard day and night.

Now I feel very unhappy when I hear someone gossiping.

"My lord, my concubine, has also heard that he has served as a local official for many years and is very popular with the people. If your majesty bothers him, it is better to send him to the local government. Firstly, he can be out of sight, and secondly, he can also make the king Show your talents, sir." Concubine Rong said with a smile.

When the official heard this, his eyes lit up and he praised: "My beloved, this is a good idea."
