But Dayan is not the Song Dynasty.
This Wang Anshi should not be that Wang Anshi.
Different social environments should give rise to different ideas, right? ?
Yan Shiyue took the seriousness of attending a lecture and listened carefully to what Prince Duan said.
Prince Duan obviously admired Wang Anshi very much and thought he was a real doer. Yan Shiyue was so supportive that he said a lot without realizing it.
Yan Shiyue frowned more and more as he listened.
In short, to put it simply, this Wang Anshi is similar to that Wang Anshi.
At this moment, Wang Anshi had already had a general idea of the direction of the new law. Perhaps because he had served in very poor and backward areas for two consecutive terms, he still had a strong desire for reform.
Is Wang Anshi a good person?
Definitely.
...
...
He did not seek fame, profit, money or enjoyment, but he was obsessed with reform to the point of paranoia.
But the problem is that many of the things he "chooses the good and insists on" are wrong!
To put it bluntly, his new law was just "paper talk". But Yin County's success made him believe it firmly.
But apart from anything else, once the Qingmiao Law was implemented, the Song Dynasty had millions more refugees, and many New Party leaders became rich overnight... His new law itself was problematic and could not be changed by simply changing a ruler.
Today's Dayan is thriving and prosperous. It does not need such a change, nor does it need someone with great ambitions to change the world and make a big difference.
This person can manage small areas, but cannot hold great power.
After returning home in the evening, Prince Duan wrote a letter to Emperor Chengsheng to recommend Wang Anshi.
Yan Shiyue didn't dare to wait a moment and immediately wrote a letter to refute him.
A few days later, Emperor Chengsheng received two letters.
One letter was written by Prince Duan, who first described the situation in An County and then strongly recommended Wang Anshi.
The other letter was written by Yan Shiyue. It was much thicker than the one written by Prince Duan. The first sentence in the title was, "Brother! Don't listen to Fourth Brother's nonsense!"
You know, there were no punctuation marks at that time, so she drew a roaring little face to indicate that it must be taken seriously.
Then she carefully refuted all the measures proposed by Wang Anshi one by one, and anticipated the serious consequences if these measures were really promoted. Her wording was fierce, and the situations she described were vivid, extremely real and immersive.
Finally, it also describes in great detail how lazy and sloppy he is.
In short, this person is talented and a good person, but he should never be reused! !
Emperor Chengsheng looked at it and laughed.
Yan Shiyue had obviously written this letter in a hurry, and it contained quite a lot of revealing information.
Emperor Chengsheng read it carefully, then folded it and had it sent to the garden for Emperor Mingyan to see.
Emperor Mingyan asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Wang Chaoqing bowed his head respectfully and said, "Replying to the Emperor, the Emperor did not say anything, he just said that the letter was very interesting and asked me to bring it to the Emperor for his perusal. The Emperor also said that the Emperor must read Prince Duan's letter first, and then the little prince's."
Emperor Ming Yan didn't understand what it meant, so he took Prince Duan's and looked at it first. He didn't think anything of it, so he took Yan Shiyue's and looked at it again.
After reading it twice, he smiled and put the letter back, "I understand."
Wang Chaoqing then respectfully withdrew.
Let’s not talk about that for now.
At this time in An County, Prince Duan wrote a letter and asked Yan Shiyue before asking his shadow guard to send it out. Yan Shiyue had no intention of undermining him, so he gave the letter to his shadow guard and sent it out together.
A day later, the canned fruits from nearby were also delivered.
Yan Shiyue informed Prince Duan and Wang Anshi that a tasting party would be held tomorrow, and specifically reminded them to take a bath, change clothes, and trim their beards, otherwise they would not be allowed to attend.
Then Wang Anshi came to visit her.
As soon as they met, Yan Shiyue simply couldn't put on a friendly expression.
To be honest, even if the idol Li Bai was here, she would instantly stop being his fan just because of the smell and the dirty, tangled beard.
Fortunately, Wei Xin knew her feelings and arranged seats far apart for them. Then Yan Shiyue asked someone to call Zhou Jianwei over to accompany her.
Wang Anshi expressed his meaning in a not very tactful way. To put it simply, everyone is busy preparing to build the road, so what is the purpose of holding this trial meeting?
Yan Shiyue said: "Lord Wang, have you ever thought about the significance of the court building a highway?"
Wang Anshi said: "We can move from expensive to cheap, and balance supply and demand. For example, if there is rice in Jianghu, we can buy it in Zhen, if there is rice in Zhejiang, we can buy it in Yang, if there is rice in Subo, we can buy it in Si, and so on."
"That's right," Yan Shiyue said, "but it's more than that. What you said is from the perspective of the court, timely dispatch, balance between the two, to ensure the people's livelihood. But have you ever thought that apart from the necessities of life such as grain, salt, tea, and wine, there are also areas where other things are insufficient and areas where they are in excess?"
She paused. "For example, An County is close to the sea and has abundant aquatic products, but aquatic products are not easy to store and transport. Therefore, An County is very poor, very poor, and everyone is not living well. As a parent official, have you ever thought about helping them get rich?"
Wang Anshi wanted to speak, but Yan Shiyue waved his hand and said, "Sir Wang, the highway can make the transportation speed at least twice as fast, and what I will do tomorrow is to solve the problem of seafood being difficult to store. After these two problems are solved, the seafood in An County can be sold to other places and exchanged for silver, money, grain and rice. This is what I will do."
Wang Anshi was slightly surprised. Then he asked, "How to solve it?"
Yan Shiyue said, "Jianwei, tell Lord Wang about this." She said to Wang Anshi, "I'm sorry, I have something else to do, so let Jianwei tell you."
Wang Anshi stood up and left.
Zhou Jianwei went out with him, leaving Yan Shiyue and Wei Xin looking at each other in bewilderment.
Not liking to take a bath is indeed a minor matter, but she really can't stand it. She is obviously full of talent, so can't she be a little cleaner?
Zhou Jianwei was the kind of person who was good at chatting with everyone. He got along quite well with Wang Anshi and successfully persuaded Wang Anshi to take a shower and change his clothes.
The news of the tasting conference was announced by posting notices everywhere, and people were sent back and forth to announce it. The venue was set on the open space in front of the county government office.
Yan Shiyue dressed up carefully for a rare occasion.
It’s okay to be down-to-earth at ordinary times, but not in such crowded occasions.
There will always be straight male chauvinists in the world. In this social environment, straight male chauvinists can even be said to be the mainstream. Therefore, you cannot dress too casually, or you will give people the impression of being a "female". This will trigger the criticism and nonsense of this group of people.
Also, don't wear men's clothes, as it can easily cause people to be picky and disgusted.
Therefore, one has to go for the route of absolute beauty and fairy-like air, which means it does not seem to be gorgeous or decorated, but is transcendent and extraordinary, like a fairy descending to earth.
Xiao Tangzhi was accompanying him, his clothes fluttering in the wind, just like an immortal sitting beside Guanyin.
Zhou Jianwei also wore an official uniform and looked very dignified, while Prince Duan and Wang Anshi were there to watch and sat aside.
People came one after another, and when the time was almost up, bowls were distributed, and then the cans were brought out.
The canning jars in the Ministry of Commerce are all large, one is a two-jin jar and the other is a six-jin jar. The ones transported over this time are the six-jin jars. They look inconspicuous, but they open together with a popping sound.
Everyone watched eagerly.
There are two kinds of canned fruits shipped over, one is cherry and the other is lychee. Both are precious fruits and taste the best of the best. They are not available locally. Most of the people here have never eaten them in their lives, let alone seen or heard of them.
The cherries opened first, and were scooped out with a large spoon. They had a sweet fragrance and were poured into a bowl. The soup was crystal clear, and the red fruits in the soup were as fresh and tender as jade. One look at them would make one's saliva burst out wildly, but looking at this bowl, it was like a work of art, and one could not bear to eat it.
They were so greedy that they started to taste the food. Several people passed the bowl around. One ate one more, and another ate one less... It's no exaggeration to say that some people were so anxious that their eyes turned red.
The lychees looked completely different, white and shiny. Not to mention the common people, even Wang Anshi, who was sitting above them, couldn't help but feel his Adam's apple rolling.
Fortunately, they did not forget them. He and Prince Duan both placed bowls in front of them and enjoyed themselves with the people.
