Lu Huiqing came from a family of officials. The Song Dynasty said that he met Wang Anshi by chance in the capital. The two talked about scriptures and were very speculative, so they entered the reform group. This proves that Wang Anshi was simply hungry and feasted. Even if he never knew each other, he would become a close friend as long as he had a little relationship. As for the historical truth, he was selectively blinded by the Song Dynasty. It was just because that person was a "gentleman"

Unfortunately, I exposed the stuff in Ouyang Xiu's own collection of essays. There is a "Note for the Recruiting Huiqing as a Library". Ouyang Xiu said in it that Lu Huiqing was "smart and intelligent, well-informed, and very elegant, and could be called a gentleman." In private, he wrote a private letter to Wang Anshi a long time ago. At that time, Wang Anshi was the governor of Changzhou, and Lu Huiqing was an ordinary subordinate in the prefecture. Ouyang Xiu praised Lu Huiqing in his letter and asked Wang Anshi to treat him in particular, which led to the initial contact between the two.

But to be fair, Lu Huiqing's heavy use is indeed blamed on Wang Anshi himself. Ouyang Xiu just wrote a letter to recommend it, but what about you? "No matter how big or small, Anshi must plot with Huiqing." You also said to the emperor, "Huiqing's wiseness, although Confucian scholars in previous lives, is not easy to compare. Those who can learn from the ways of the previous kings are the only ones who can use it." You promoted Lu Huiqing to the position of establishing the three Regulations and Regulations. Then, you can only blame yourself for everything that happens in the future!

But I still have to [31 Novel Network] to sigh: The power of the road is visible, and people's hearts will be seen over time. How difficult it is to recognize a person! Another example: Wang Anshi went back to his hometown in Linchuan on the way to Jiangning Prefecture and went back to his hometown in Linchuan once, and learned that the local county magistrate Xie Qingcai organized the people to build water conservancy and irrigate farmland. The effect was very good, which left a deep impression on him. So when the Farmland Water Conservancy Law was implemented, Xie Qingcai was reused exceptionally...

After Lu Huiqing, Wang Anshi's first major assistants were Su Che, Zhang Dun, Cheng Hao, Xue Xiang, Lu Jiawen, etc.

Su Che was Su Shi's younger brother. Not long after Jiayou passed the imperial examination, his mother died in his hometown, and the father and son returned to their hometown to attend the funeral. After the mourning years, the family entered Beijing. He chose to be an official for life and wandered around the fate of Shenzhou. Lao Su became a small Beijing official, responsible for compiling the history of the country. Big and small Su passed the third grade of the system subject (the system subject is different from the Jinshi subject. It is not permanent. The third grade of the system subject in the Song Dynasty was the highest score. Before Su Shi, only one person had obtained: Wu Yu), and the fourth grade, and was appointed as the judge of Fengxiang Prefecture and the reinvigorating officer of Shangzhou.

Before the reform began, Old Su Ji passed away, so Big and Big Su is now mourning in the capital, and Su Shi works in the History Museum.

To be honest, he might have to retreat to the last place among the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, and he was far inferior to his father and brother. But in terms of political talent, Xiao Su was the strongest! He became the deputy prime minister at the highest position and was much stronger than his brother Su Shi. Su Che's official career started from this time when he became a confidant under Wang Anshi...

Zhang Dun, a great figure in the Zhezong Dynasty. After Empress Dowager Gao passed away and Emperor Zhezong took power, he was the number one person in the officialdom and the only prime minister of the Song Dynasty. However, at this time he was still an unknown little person. There are only two things worth mentioning, both of which are related to Su Shi. They were entangled all their lives. To be honest, Zhang Dun's infamy in history is also related to Su Shi. Hehe! Who made people Su Dongpo? How could the most talented man in the Song Dynasty be wrong? The one who is wrong is naturally Zhang Dun. Of course, this is all later...

The two of them had traveled together to visit the fairy and traveling pool of Fengxiang Mansion. The cliffs of thousands of feet below the pond were only a small cross-border link. Zhang Dun asked Su Shi to go first. Su Shi shook his head and cherish his life. Forget this matter. But Zhang Dun took a calm step and walked up the cross-border. After reaching the other side, he climbed the vines, climbed the cliffs, and wrote a large book with lacquer ink - Zhang Dun, Su Shi. Then he turned around and returned without changing his expression. Su Shi patted his shoulder and said, "You will definitely kill people in the future." Zhang Dun was puzzled. Su Shi said, "You don't even want your own life, how can you take other people's lives to heart?" Zhang Dun laughed...

Another time, two people were having fun and drinking in a small temple. Suddenly someone said that a tiger came from the mountain, not far away. The two of them got on the horse with alcohol and met. When they really met a tiger, Su Shi fled, and Zhang Dun asked to knock on the gong from the person, and the tiger ran away...

These two things come from the notes of the Song people. Maybe you will appreciate Zhang Dun's courage, climbing the cliffs and retreating the fierce tigers. You are really a brave man! But in the ancient literati class, they recognized Su Shi's "reason" and the elegant and luxurious spirit born from the lay Buddhist Dongpo. How could it be comparable to a desperate person like Zhang Dun? And they also have theories, which Su Shi said, and there are constant people in modern society that say--How can a person loves others if he doesn't even love himself?

So, Zhang Dun is good at everything, but you'd better not mess with him. He is an emotional person who is easy to go to extremes. He will be your best friend and dare to stand up for you when facing difficulties in life and death. But when he is angry, he will kill everything and use all means to kill the enemy he has identified!

Next, let’s talk about Cheng Hao. This is really an unprecedented and unprecedented figure. When it comes to the academic thoughts of the Song Dynasty, we must talk about Neo-Confucianism. When it comes to Neo-Confucianism, we must talk about him and his younger brother Cheng Yi. As time goes by, the statue of the two Chengs was made higher and higher, until it became an opposition to Wang Anshi and denying the foundation of Xining’s new law. To talk about him, we must start with another person, the founder of Neo-Confucianism’s theory - Zhou Dunyi.

Everyone is familiar with this person's name, "It is not a vine or branch, it is straight from the middle, and the fragrance is clearer from the distance. You can see it from afar and not play with it." The author of the elegant and elegant sketch "The Legend of Love for Lotus". At that time, there were some sayings that his reputation and knowledge were higher than that of Wang Anshi, Sima Guang and others, and they were so high that they were indescribable that they could not describe it, and they were so magical.

For example, when Wang Anshi was a teenager, he took his business card to visit Zhou Dunyi's house. However, he visited three times, but was rejected three times, and he was not allowed to see him. Wang Anshi was angry and said, "Can I not learn to be a good person?" So Wang Anshi later had a series of "absurd" reforms, which were all because he had not received any education from a master back then! In fact, no matter when he was young or later, everyone got old. Until Zhou Dunyi died, Wang Anshi would not take him seriously, and even the academic community did not regard Zhou, Cheng and others as dishes.

Zhou Dunyi was born in 1017 and was originally named Dunshi. Because Song Yingzong Zhao Shu was originally named Zhao Zongshi, he changed his name to "Dunyi" and lost his father at a young age. At the age of 5, he joined his uncle with his mother and was Zheng Xiang, a scholar in Longtu Pavilion. With the recommendation of his uncle, he entered the officialdom.

This beginning determined the direction of his official position throughout his life. He was always just a small official, and he was even sent to a semi-living area in Guangdong to manage prisoners. At the same time, it also reflects the "height" of Zhou Dunyi's own knowledge. The things that Wang Anshi mentioned above, Wang Anshi failed to get to see the truth at first glance. Like Wang Anshi, he was also a self-taught person. He had not even passed the imperial examination and had not even been through the imperial examination to learn it completely... Why are you so proud in front of Wang Xianggong? What's more, the two were only four or five years apart. Wang Anshi was a teenager, and he was also a teenager. During his studies, he put on a grandmaster's aura, which was simply unaware of the so-called.

Then why did he become so great? It depends on what others are learning. That is the Neo-Confucianism that has been continuously elevated in later generations! It is up to him to lay the foundation, and the foundation must start with his extraordinary understanding of Taoism.

Neo-Confucianism can also be called Taoism. Although Taoism can be said to be extraordinary, it is different from the Huang-Lao theory created by Lao Tzu, the sages know everything and do everything. Zhou Dunyi never picks on food when absorbing nutrients. His theoretical foundation "Tai Chi Tuan" originated from the "Wuji Tuan" by Chen Tuan, a famous sleeping god Taoist priest in Huashan in the early Song Dynasty (transmitted to Mu Xiu, and Mu Xiu passed on Zhou Dunyi) from which established the source of Neo-Confucianism's propositions such as the induction of heaven and man, studying things to achieve knowledge, preserving the laws of heaven, and destroying human desires.

People who claim to revive Confucianism actually draw their opinions from Taoism, and do not know where the "pure Confucianism", "great Confucianism" and "sages" they promote come from?

It is said that decades of research have been boring and lonely, and Zhou Dunyi's extraordinary talent is not well known. At that time, people only knew that there was a small official in Hezhou Prefecture, with excellent political affairs and outstanding decisions. He did not dare to make decisions in big and small matters without his hands. The rest of the officials dared not make decisions. Anything else was gone. In this way, the great life grew older day by day, until a thoughtful person secretly discovered his secret: Cheng Taizhong, the judge of Nan'an.

The magistrate, that is, the deputy mayor, was considered the boss of Zhou Dunyi in terms of rank, but he was very polite to him and sent his two sons to him solemnly and asked him to educate him. This is the beginning of Cheng Hao, the two brothers Cheng Yi, who later became the third and fourth saints after Confucius and Mencius, becoming the third and fourth saints in Confucianism.

In fact, the above sentence is not very accurate. Others work hard all their lives to become saints. The profession of the Cheng brothers is to teach others how to become saints. This incredible educational career began when they were young, such as their younger brother Cheng Yi when they were 4 years old.

The two brothers taught in Beijing, Songyang and other places. The results were hard to say, because the output of the saints at that time was not very high, but after their continuous efforts, they finally achieved some results. They were known by the upper leaders, such as Wen Yanbo. The leadership role was huge, and their residence, funds, and environment were greatly improved. The most important point was that it was very painful: they became officials.

Taking Cheng Yi as an example, he once proudly said: Since becoming a disciple of Mr. Zhou, he has studied the great path every day, and his desire for fame and fortune in the imperial examination field has never been reborn. However, he still has to go to the imperial examination field, otherwise how can he educate ministers and emperors? Everyone has the power to be a saint, and I want to help them.

The Cheng brothers entered the officialdom, and this was the period when Xining’s reform had just begun...

Okay! That’s all about the prelude to the reform. To be honest: At this time, Wang Anshi’s approval rating in the officialdom may not be lower than Sima Guang. In his election campaign, please recall the different opinions of the two people mentioned above about how the world’s property operates. Sima Guang said that saving is necessary to be rich. That is to tighten the belts in the officialdom and let officials who are used to comfort and luxury suffer! Wang Anshi said that the country can use its best without adding taxes, which means that officials can maintain their current life. Money will be transformed from his extraordinary and magical brain. How tempting is this, the whole world is waiting for him to make magic tricks...

In the month, Liu Hang was sent to Xixia to enthrone Li Bingchang.

On the 16th of the month, Su Che was appointed as the Regulations of the Three Divisions to establish the detailed text of the Regulations. However, his memorial stated from the beginning that "it is not to ask for money now, but to give away those who harm money. There are three people who harm money: redundant officials, redundant soldiers, and redundant expenses."

On the 1st, Li Bingchang submitted an oath to exchange Anyuan Village for Suizhou. He was approved.

This month, the Liao Kingdom blocked the rebellion of the Bu tribe, and then Emperor Daozong of Liao remembered Yelu Renxian again. He recalled him to the court and appointed him as the Northwest Road recruitment envoy to quell the rebellion.

On April 11, the Minister of the General Political Affairs Office of the Secretariat passed away. At that time, the Prime Minister Zeng Gongliang and Fu Bi were both old, and the Minister of the General Political Affairs Office of the Secretariat Zhao Yan was independent and difficult to resist. Since Tang Jie's death, the Minister of the Secretariat had basically become the one-man of the Minister of the Secretariat Wang Anshi. Emperor Shenzong gave Wang Anshi absolute trust and great power. However, there was no restrictive power, especially in the major matter of reform. It was really worthy of fun. There was a proverb at that time.

The saying "The Secretariat of Zhongshu has birth, old age, sickness, death, bitterness" is Wang Anshi, always Zeng Gongliang, sickness is Fu Bi, death is Tang Jie, bitterness is Zhao Yan (Once, Wang Anshi angrily scolded his colleagues, "Your Majesty cannot read," Zhao Yan immediately refuted, "Your words are bad. Gao, Kui, Ji, Qi, are there any books to read?") With such a strong force, Wang Anshi laid the groundwork for the final failure of this vigorous reform from the beginning.

Afterwards, Wang Anshi's strength was reflected again. He opposed the opposition and appointed Xue Xiang as the Jianghuai and other routes to dismiss the Kaifeng Prefect Teng Fu.

On the 1st, Prime Minister Fu Bi and Zeng Gongliang submitted a complaint due to drought and were asked to be dismissed, but the imperial edict refused.

On May 18, Hanlin Scholar Zheng Xu, envoy of the Northern Court of Xuanhui Wang Gongchen, and Qian Gongfu of the Censorate, were dismissed at the same time. Zheng Xu, as one of the two-system officials, had to be dismissed from the prime minister to dismiss him. At that time, Fu Bi was sick at home, and Zeng Gongliang sent an envoy to Luoyang. Wang Anshi wrote an edict to dismiss the person without discussing with the emperor. As soon as this happened, public opinion was in a turmoil. Lu Hui, the chief censor, immediately wrote a letter to impeach Wang Anshi.

On the 1st, Wang Anshi begged for resignation, but Emperor Shenzong of Song refused to allow him and returned him to report.

This month, Wang Anshi introduced his first move to reform! A century-old plan is based on education. After taking office, the first thing he did was to put aside the top priorities of economy, government affairs, military, etc., and the first thing he required was to comprehensively reform the scientific examination system and the study textbooks of candidates. The specific approach was to no longer take poetry and essays from then on, and being an official had nothing to do with reciting poetry. There was no need to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics, and to write them down in a paragraph. They were examined for discussions such as classics, theories, and the strategies. They should explain the specific methods of governing the country!
