Chapter 116 Wen Mansion Night Banquet (1)(2/2)
"I would like to see what he, Wen Kuanfu, wants to do?!"
With that said, Zhang Fangping looked in the direction of the Imperial City.
What happened recently is very unusual!
Sima Guang suddenly didn't know what happened, so he wrote something about his maternal relatives in the letter.
This suddenly stirred up a hornet's nest, and both the Gao family and the Xiang family jumped up.
Even the Cao family and the Yang family were making sarcastic remarks in secret.
The two palaces were suddenly surrounded by people who were secretly speaking ill of Sima Guang.
They are all of very high standards and never mention Sima Guang a word, but they always remind the two palaces of some of the things Sima Guang has done.
Originally, there was such a turmoil.
As a veteran of the four dynasties who was respected by the emperor for the important military affairs of Pingzhang, Wen Yanbo should immediately enter the palace to explain and resolve the grievances between the two palaces.
But Wen Yanbo did nothing.
All this is so unusual!
…
When Zhang Shu found Su Shi.
He was already drunk.
"Zizhan...Zizhan..."
Su Shi looked at the person in front of him with drunken eyes, and shook his hands in salute: "It's my brother..."
"But something happened?"
Zhang Shu looked at Su Shi, shook his head and sighed: "The man has passed away, Zizhan can't go on like this!"
After Su Shi came to Beijing, things were fine at first, and I could chat with him happily every day.
But something went wrong after a few days.
He began to drink to drown his sorrows, and began to look in the direction of Yingzhou all day long, sighing, and even told Zhang Shu that he would resign and go to Wang Shen's grave in Yingzhou to visit his old friend's grave.
Zhang Shu spent a lot of effort to persuade Su Shi to come down.
Su Shi shook his head and said: "Qing Jin died because of me..."
"It was not because he was trying to save me... He would not have been demoted to Yingzhou. If he had not been demoted to Yingzhou, the eldest son of the eldest princess of Yue State and Jin Qing would not have died. If Jin Qing and the eldest princess of Yue State had a son,
...The Emperor's benevolence and sage will not be blamed..."
Zhang Shu had no choice but to stop talking about this topic with Su Shi and said to him: "Zizhan, my father ordered me to inform Zizhan that Grand Master Wen is hosting a banquet tonight, and Sima Xianggong is also at the banquet..."
"Xiangong Sima?!" When Su Shi heard this name, he almost woke up from the wine: "Is Xianggong Sima here too?"
"Please also ask Xuanhui to bring me to attend!"
Su Shi already knew that he was reinstated only after Sima Guang recommended him.
For such a great favor, he must express his gratitude in person!
What's more, Sima Guang is still a figure he has always admired and admired, and he is also the only scholar-official who Su Shi has always believed can save this situation!
Being demoted to Huangzhou for five years allowed Su Shi to have close contact with the farmers at the lowest level.
Especially when Su Shi himself reclaimed fifty acres of wasteland in Huangzhou and grew vegetables for himself.
He gradually understood the reasons and motivations for Wang Anshi's reform.
In particular, the labor exemption law and the farmland water conservancy law are no longer evil in Su Shi's mind, but a good law that can save the world with just a few changes!
He couldn't wait to tell those he trusted and those who could change the world what he had learned and thought over the years.
Sima Guang was the person identified by Su Shi.
Zhang Shu looked at Su Shi's excitement and said quickly: "My father just wants to invite Zizhan to go to the Wen Mansion to attend!"
Su Shi was suddenly as happy as a child.
Note: For historical facts, Wen Yiqing has been transferred to Wenzi.
Note 2: Bianjing City has two housing rental models: private rental and official rental. Official rental is cheaper, and private rental has better services.
Among them, the official house also has a special management organization: the left and right side stores are managed by three court officials, two capital officials and internal ministers.
Generally, the normal monthly rent for a house is about 400-500 yuan. Note that it is one room.
According to statistics from Xining in the past ten years, there are about 15,000 official houses and about 180 large mansions in Bianjing.
Ouyang Xiu wrote several poems complaining about leaks in rented houses.
Note 3: Su Shi's title of Su Dongpo was because he reclaimed 50 acres of wasteland on a barren mountain facing east in Huangzhou, so he called himself Dongpo layman.
It was also because of this experience that Su Shi began to understand the hardships of the bottom farmers and began to sympathize with them.
