Chapter 214 Teacher Ouyang is back

The great court came again.

The little brat was named by the emperor again as usual. Fortunately, he was not cold when he woke up early this time, and he was not as painful as before.

What's strange this time is that Ouyang Xiu appeared in the waiting room. There was no news about Wang Rong, but with his official title, no one needs to invite him to participate in the grand court.

"It's good that my husband is here."

"Yes, when you are not here, this capital and this court always feel something is wrong."

A group of guys surrounding Ouyang Xiu's "reunited after a long time" laughed and looked at Zhang Fangping and Wang Rong.

Ouyang Xiu enjoyed the feeling of being welcomed by someone, but he was humble and twisted his beard and sighed: "I'm back, but what's the use? Young people are getting more and more promising nowadays. We old men always don't like to listen to them. They always think that the world is what they look like in their eyes. Such differences and conflicts are not known how many variables we need to add to the subsequent events."

After saying that, I looked over there.

I don’t know if Old Ouyang is watching Wang Rong or Wang Anshi, or both?

Wang Anshi looked very cute and looked at "Teacher Ouyang". As a result, perhaps Ouyang Xiu was in a bad mood and thought that the young man Wang Anshi was provoking, so he walked over with a steady look.

When he came nearby, Ouyang Xiu was still somewhat handsome. Not to mention Wang Yun, he said to Wang Anshi: "Your son is very famous now. I also know your Wang Anshi's temper and general style. Before entering Beijing, he heard that your son made the coal market mess. Somehow, the emperor was bewitched by a group of people this time and did something confused, which led to a large amount of coal prices and harmed the interests of a large group of coal merchants. So what would this industry and the imperial court be like in the future? Your philosophy when you were young was the overall situation. Have you changed now?"

Wang Anshi thought for a while and said, "People can evolve. My thinking has been adjusted a little, but the overall view has not changed. As for the coal problem you mentioned by Ming Gong, it is not my turn to take care of it. Only when you are in your position can you do your politics. This is Zhang Fangping's business."

Ouyang Xiu was a little angry and said loudly: "Wang Anshi, you are avoiding the important things. As a court official, you should be loyal to the emperor and advise the emperor. How can you not make any decisions without being in his position? When military expenditures are insufficient and the situation around the Song Dynasty is becoming more and more complex and changeable, you are in the Privy Council but do not consider the source of your troops' subsequent military expenditures, and do not control the emperor's willfulness. Even if there is an unusual big uptrend in the coal market?"

Wang Anshi spread his hands and said, "But I am the attitude. Of course, I have to think about the source of military expenditure, but I don't think that the huge military expenditure is based on the huge carbon price and carbon tax. Energy is used to burn, not for speculation. In the past, the fluctuations were small because it was already so high that it could not rise again. In the past, it did not fall because coal merchants saw that the imperial court's financial exhaustion and used high carbon tax returns to maintain their monopoly. This was a crazy kidnapping, killing chickens and taking eggs. This excessive demand only made a small group of people fattening a small group of people, and they even drank salt water to quench thirst for the imperial court. In the long run, it would greatly reduce the vitality of the Song Dynasty and the efficiency of production labor. Wang Yun's operation may be perfect, but it is generally the first form of the "City Law" that I have been thinking about. I think it can be tried."

Ouyang Xiu said: "You are quite tough. I'm waiting to see how you end up. Before you get the summer tax, this alone can kill some people."

"Ouyang Xianggong is wise."

Then a group of people started talking about it and saying it, and it seemed that at this time, they were strategists, politicians and economists, and they all published how the coal market should operate. Everyone taught Wang Anshi in a unified way.

They still have Fengdu, Wang Rong is a child, so they didn't say it, so the big old man took the blame and was caught in the fire.

Khan, of course, it was Zhang Fangping's pot to say that this matter was, but Lao Zhang sat aside with no heart and was too lazy to pay attention to them. He looked fearless.

When everyone saw that Ouyang Xiu was embarrassed to question Zhang Fangping directly, of course they were not stupid, but just came to chase Wang Anshi and talk to him.

So before the dynasty officially began, Wang Anshi looked very cute and fell into a situation of fighting against scholars.

The whole environment was squirting water, and Bao Zheng finally felt a little annoyed. Lao Bao was not so concerned about military expenditure, finance, etc., but overall he felt that the honeycomb coal of Dalian was very powerful, and Bao Zheng was not aware of the ups and downs of coal rights warrants, so he said, "Everyone said less. Wang Anshi said nothing wrong. It's not his business. Why are you targeting him? As for Zhang Fangping and Wang Rong, they must have their own original intentions and ideas when they operate like this. It is useless to argue against tit-for-tat here. Be rational. Just wait for the emperor to go to the palace, just summarize the key issues."

"Hey, you're a bun of black charcoal. Who said you're not smart? I'm looking at you who's more smart than anyone else, and who's more smart than anyone else?"

So they started to turn their heads and spray their old bags again.

Bao Zheng looked like he didn't want to pay attention to them, and said, "I don't want to tell you that you think there is something wrong with your attitude. Now it is impossible to determine whether the fluctuations in the coal market are good or bad. Why do you have to decide whether the win or lose? You also said that Wang Anshi and Zhang Fangping are stubborn and stupid. Are you talking nonsense now?"

Many officials were pissed off by Lao Bao.

Ouyang Xiu was stunned, twisted his beard and thought about it for a while, and calmed a little bit. Lao Bao was right, he didn't even know Zhang Fangping's trump card, and the emperor didn't come, and just made a fuss here. This was indeed a whim. At least he was talking after Zhang Fangping reported it.

Ouyang Xiu's attack this time seemed to be talking about Wang Anshi, but of course it was targeting Zhang Fangping. The reason was that during the last time, Lao Zhang was snatched and said, "You can continue to stay in the countryside, the Song Dynasty doesn't need you to plan." So Ouyang Xiu's idea was not clear.

Sure enough, when people are impulsive, their IQ is zero in anger, so they start to be in trouble in advance without even getting the real hammer. Thinking of this, Ouyang Xiu was speechless at him.

Zhao Zhen’s rule is to come late in the morning so that these guys will quarrel for a long time and will be relatively calm. Otherwise, they will definitely be annoyed to death.

The great dynasty during the Song Dynasty will last for more than three hours, and you can’t eat even if you eat. There are people with bloodlines that are blocked at the station every time, especially in winter.

The reason is that no scholar in this era doesn't like to show off, and is particularly long-winded. Everyone wants to say all the thoughts, experiences, experiences and affairs of the past half month in front of the emperor in detail.

When Zhao Zhen came this time, he was holding a document submitted by Zhang Fangping, the three officials, in advance.

"I have been disturbed these days and have been in a bad mood. This time it is not an annual summary, so let's talk about it for a long time."

As he said this, Zhao Zhen looked around and handed the article to Chen Zhizhong and said, "This time I will summarize the results of winter, and then summarize the results of the huge fluctuations in coal and the intervention of the three departments. I have limited energy, so let Chen Zhizhong read it on his behalf."

In addition to signing and stamping, Lao Chen liked this kind of thing the most, so he took the newspaper and started to recite: "In the early winter of Zhihe, the royal treasury allocated a total of 350,000 tanks of silver and fire expenses for the people of Kaifeng Prefecture, a half-percent increase compared with the previous year. There was no incident of freezing to death... Your Majesty's Holy Wisdom!"

At this point, Old Chen began to flatter.

Others, including Zhao Zhen, were speechless, but some symbolic voices followed and shouted. The Sansi newspaper definitely did not have this sentence "Your Majesty's wiseness", but Chen Zhizhong was also drunk if he wanted to interrupt his thoughts and delay his time.

Although this is a good news, it was the most efficient and effective in resisting cold and disaster relief among all the royal grants. But because this is old news, it has been circulating in the streets for a long time, and this is done by Wang Rong's honeycomb coal, but the honeycomb coal avoids the imperial court's carbon tax.

So of course this is good news, but the degree of excitement is limited. It is a known benefit. What everyone is more concerned about is the loss of this carbon tax.

Next, Chen Zhizhong said: "About Zhihe's carbon tax in the first quarter of the second year..."

After looking at the data again, Old Chen felt a little embarrassed, so he paused.

All the officials in the hall were staring at Lao Chen, waiting for his next sentence.

"Mr. Chen, you can't say that the carbon tax is increasing, right? That will make it too much water, and it will not convince the public, and it will lose the significance of summary and statistics." Wen Yanbo, the political official listed behind him, whispered.

Chen Zhizhong looked at the emperor worriedly again and found that the emperor was in a good mood. So he continued to recite: "In the first quarter, the carbon tax from Kaifeng Prefecture dropped by 30% compared with the same period last year." As a result, there was an uproar!

I also think how magical Wang Rong's honeycomb coal is. To put it bluntly, this is just a good-looking livelihood data for taking away the huge interests of the court and coal merchants. If it weren't Fan Zhongyan's set, what would it be?
