() Deputy Prime Minister Su Ting has been troubled recently.

It was still because of the currency policy that was released just now. Although this policy can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye to be beneficial to the country, it did arouse Chang'an's hearts and minds, and almost all transactions stopped.

Obviously people are still looking at the direction of the wind, which kind of money is more valuable, they say it is the newly minted official currency, but now there is no shadow of the official currency. purchasing power.

Su Ting is quite a tough prime minister. Although he does cooperate well with Song Jing, most of them are filling in for Song Jing. The general direction is always dominated by Song Jing, the prime minister.

As for the implementation of some policies, if he hadn't thought hard enough, it would be really difficult for the policies to be implemented perfectly.

However, Su Ting's personality has always been generous, and he has no idea of ​​replacing Song Jing as the prime minister. Every time he thinks of the scene when Song Jing just became the prime minister, all kinds of impeachments rushed to Song Jing, Su Ting felt that Some shuddered, he didn't have Song Jing's indomitable courage and tenacity.

And Su Ting has a relatively clear understanding of himself. He is most suitable for being Song Jing's deputy. He is good at handling details and trivial matters, but let him really be a dominant leader like Song Jing. The direction is really difficult.

Maybe I won't be in this position for a few years... Su Ting sighed a little.

Although Song Jing's policy is good, it is too radical and strong, and offended many people. This time, those who oppose Song Jing's policy are just waiting to see a joke. The prosperous trade in Chang'an is because of this policy. And if it stops, how many people's interests should be touched, and how many people will be gnashing their teeth with hatred?

Some goods, such as vegetables and fruits, have a specific time limit. If they cannot be sold, those merchants will lose a lot...

Su Ting didn't think of any solution to this problem for the time being. It wasn't that he couldn't think of it, but the serious situation made him very confused, and he couldn't calm down, so it was hard to think of a good solution.

Su Ting sighed again, this year he is only 48 years old, but his head is already full of gray hair and his energy is weak, which shows how difficult it is to be the prime minister of a country.

Moreover, although Su Ting was born in an official family, he was a concubine. He lived a very hard life since he was a child, but he still studied hard-"I don't like my father, I often hang out with my servants, and I am eager to learn. I want to study every day, but I have no lamps and candles." , Taste it in the stove of the stable, blow the fire and recite it according to the book, this is how he studied hard."

Taking a casual sip of tea, Su Ting cast his eyes on the more than a dozen test papers on the table. These are the palace examinations of the tributes this year. They will be reviewed by him, Song Jing and other bigwigs, and the best among them will be selected. Hand it over to His Majesty the Emperor for review, and finally decide the ranking of the palace examination.

Su Ting decided to review these test papers and relax his tense mood. Although most of the articles written by these scholars are like castles in the sky, they are not grounded, but their literary quality is indeed good. He does not expect the answers of these scholars. Solve his troubles.

Picking up one and looking at it casually, Su Ting frowned, obviously the title was about the meaning of this policy, but the examinee was left to talk about it and piled up rhetoric, but he really played the genre of parallel prose very well. In the end, I didn't say what the meaning of this policy is. Instead, a bunch of private goods were mixed in the policy question, insinuating state affairs.

Su Ting snorted softly, picked up a pen and wrote some bad comments very bluntly. As a prime minister, he had already done his best for the whole country. These ignorant Gongshi ridiculed, really depressed.

As for the later poems that should be prepared, Su Ting will not pay too much attention to them. After all, the imperial examination at this time is still based on policy questions. It will not be written in the corresponding poems.

Picking up another test paper, Su Ting looked at it, but he didn't frown, but his eyes still showed a look of disappointment. This test paper can basically represent the average level of Gongshi.

When answering what is the significance of the policy, I wrote a lot of praise words, but these words are very general, generalized, and I keep saying yes, but I can’t say why it is good, and the means to solve the problem are even poorer. It is said that the people in Chang'an were appeased by powerful administrative means...

Fuck, it's easy to say, but you're here to show me what a powerful administrative method is... Su Ting complained in his heart.

I wrote a bunch of eloquently, without any useful things. If I use two words to describe this test paper, it is "mediocre".

However, Su Ting was merciful, at least the attitude of this test paper was relatively positive, unlike the previous one, which showed off the writing skills while also being cynic and sarcastic, which made people angry.

Although he was disappointed, Su Ting felt normal in his heart. After all, he couldn't think of any good way to calm people's hearts. Of course, it didn't mean that he couldn't think of it, but that his thoughts were blocked temporarily because of upset.

If these ignorant tributes can come up with a good way, then they really have the talent of Zaifu.

Su Ting pursed his lips in disdain, and touched his white beard, obviously he didn't think he could find any good method in the questions and answers of these test papers.

So he decided to take a closer look at one more copy, and left the rest perfunctory. As the prime minister of a country, he had too many government affairs to deal with, and he didn't have time to spend on such meaningless things.

Although he looked down on the answers of some gongshi, he would not be a villain and depose others. If Su Ting went to modern times to become a university professor, he would be very popular with students, because he is the kind who can give full marks to top students, and The professor who gave poor students [-] points to let them go has such a gentle personality.

Taking out this paper, seeing the neat handwriting on it, Su Ting couldn't help stretching his brows. Although this calligraphy is not a master's handwriting, it is very comfortable to read. Every word is written neatly and neatly. It is much smoother than the previous two cursive writing.

Su Ting was even thinking that if every examinee used such comfortable calligraphy to write, maybe with his temperament, he would really read every copy seriously, but it's a pity that many candidates' calligraphy It was too "elegant", which gave him a headache when he was already a little old-eyed.

Su Ting couldn't help but looked curiously at whose paper this test paper belonged to. When he saw the words "Wang Wei" and "Mo Jie", he couldn't help but understand that it was the Gongshi who had passed the provincial test first. .

Of course, Su Ting has been known for Wang Wei's name for a long time. After all, he is also well-known in the literary world, and his writing is vigorous.

Su Ting has also read Wang Wei's poems. He is actually not interested in those poems that show off literary ideas such as "Red Peony". After reading it, I admired it from the bottom of my heart. I just felt that the sentence "I am a stranger in a foreign land alone, and I miss my relatives every festive season" expressed the state of mind of thousands of wanderers. Poetry must be passed down through the ages.

Su Ting had a good relationship with He Zhizhang, so he naturally knew what happened between Wang Wei and He Zhizhang. He admired Wang Wei's chivalrous spirit very much.

But in general, Su Ting thinks that Wang Wei is just an admirable junior, so he thinks that Wang Wei, a young boy, may not be able to answer any satisfactory answers to the policy question this time. The answers of those two gongshi had already disappointed Su Ting very much.

Su Ting glanced at Wang Wei's answer casually at first, and then he couldn't help being taken aback, a look of astonishment appeared on his face!

As the Deputy Prime Minister, Su Ting's energy-raising skills can be said to be very good, but if anyone sees Su Ting, who has always been calm and unhurried, showing such a surprised look, he will be very surprised!

Immediately, Su Ting's surprised expression turned into concentration. He gently picked up the test paper and read it carefully. At this moment, he suddenly hated the genre of parallel prose, because although this genre is gorgeous, it really doesn't have it. Readable xing.

The strategic question answered by Wang Wei is too delicate, if it is described in prose, it must be more straightforward and easy to understand!

The more Su Ting watched, the more excited he became, he suddenly felt that Wang Wei, a young man, was able to understand this issue so deeply because he was young and had divergent thinking!

So when he saw that Wang Wei said that as long as the credit of the currency is maintained, even paper can be used as currency, although he thought it was too whimsical, he also took a tolerant attitude towards it, because the policy discussed by Wang Wei before The meaning is already very incisive, even Su Ting is overwhelmed!

However, the meaning of the policy is false after all. Although the understanding is profound, the key lies in the latter question, which is the solution to Chang'an's fluctuating hearts, how to restart Chang'an's trade.

At this time, Su Ting did not dare to underestimate Wang Wei. Although young people were "hairless and incapable of doing things", young people's thinking was more open, so Su Ting, the deputy prime minister, began to look forward to Wang Wei.

Seeing the solution written by Wang Wei, Su Ting stood up excitedly, causing some officials in the political affairs hall to look at each other in blank dismay, wondering why this deputy prime minister who always works quietly was suddenly so excited.

Wang Wei’s solution is to translate the parallel prose into “Let the treasury spend tens of thousands of dollars to set up two cities in the north and the south, and use them to buy those slow-moving goods that can be used by the government at a par price. Advance official salaries so that high-quality official money can be circulated to the people."

Su Ting thinks this idea is good, and it is indeed feasible. If he calms down and thinks about it, he may also come up with this method.

This Wang Mojie really gave him a big surprise.
