Chapter 141 Make an appointment with an old friend

A team set out from Tubo, with the gift from Tubo's new accession to the throne and the tribute to the Song monarch on the return journey, and the speed of the team's march was obviously much faster than when it was gone. To Wang said that he had figured it out, he quickly began to prepare. It only took half a month, he We returned to the capital.

The king sent people to send tributes to the palace, and then asked Dai Zong to pick up Wang Anshi back to Beijing. Then he called Wang Zhennan and Wanyan Agu to fight, and hung a sign to refuse to disturb at the door of the study. It was boring for several days. The two teenagers followed the dictation of the king, sorting out the details of the federal government over and over again as if Like being brainwashed, he accepted the king's thoughts.

Whenever I see Ali Gu's deep understanding and awakening of the content, Wang Bing feels a little hope. For what will happen later, Ali Gu is the key to the progress of the whole event.

Outside Wang Zhennan and Wanyan Ali's bones, no one knew what Wang was going to do. It was not until the Huangmen official ordered Wang to go to court to the court the next day that people saw Wang coming out of the study. In just a few days, Wang seemed to have changed. His eyes became deeper and deeper, a kind of momentum and The posture of strategy is becoming more and more obvious.

After receiving the imperial edict, Wang Bing returned to the study again. Wang Zhennan put down the pen in his hand and gently blew the ink. "Dad, all the details have been written. Please have a look." With that, he sorted out the documents of the federal regulations and handed them to the king.

"Well, well done." Wang side looked at it. Wang Zhennan's handwriting was neat, and the content was meticulous and well-organized. When Wang Zhennan handed over the things he had sorted out to himself, Wang side suddenly recalled that Wang Anshi was preparing for the new policy at that time. At that time, Wang Yuanze cooperated with Wang Anshi to sort out the content of the new policy word for word, perhaps because For this reason, Wang Yuanze did not want any flaws in the implementation of the New Deal. Thinking of the death of his brother Yuanze, Wang was a little sad, but when he saw Wang Zhennan in front of him, Wang knew more that this matter could only succeed but not fail.

Wang Zhennan didn't know that the moment he gave the manuscript to his father, he touched so many ideas beside Wang. His father praised him. He smiled and turned his head and looked at Wanyan Agu, who was still writing something: "A Guda, how are you doing over there?"

"Well, I'm writing some of my analysis of the current situation of the Liao Dynasty, and this is some plans to strengthen my Wanyan tribe."

"Huo, let me see. You can write this. Uncle must be very happy if he reads it."

"Go, can you write something? This is taught by your father-in-law. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will not be defeated." Wanyan Aguda also put down the pen in his hand. Although his handwriting was not as good as that written by Wang Zhennan, it was also a neat discussion. Who said that the real woman could only ride a horse and shoot, but Wanyan impeached Libo had never given up educating his children about the Central Plains culture.

"It's afternoon tea time, my lord, please take a break and taste the new tea." Shi Qian walked into the study. As a close servant next to the king, Shi Qian has become a person who can enter and exit the study at any time in recent days.

"Let it go." Wang side reviewed Wang Zhennan's manuscript and said without raising his head.

Suddenly, a strong fragrance floated, and the whole room was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. Wang couldn't help but look up. Seeing that Shi Qian was pouring the cup full, the fragrance was coming from his teacup.

"What is this? It smells so good." Wanyan Agu held her nose and sniffed it.

Wang Zhennan's face suddenly showed joy: "Grandfather is here."

"Time Qian, is the old man here?"

"Hey hey, your guess is right, my lord. The old man said that you were busy first. The two ladies are talking to the old man."

"Good wood, why didn't you say it earlier? Take me to see you." After saying that, Wang hurriedly got up and walked to the inner house.

Wanyan Agu took a sip of tea: "It smells so good."

"Stop drinking tea and go to see my grandfather with me." With that, he pulled Wanyan Agu and followed Wang out.

"Brother, you guys are really good. If you take a sip of tea, you will know that your grandfather is coming."

Wang Zhennan walked and explained, "You don't know that this tea is osmanthus tea. Only Jiangning Prefecture has this four-season osmanthus, and flowers bloom once in February and March. That is to say, only my grandfather will bring this fresh osmanthus tea when he comes."

"So that's it. I thought you, like your father-in-law, could be a prophet about anything." Wanyan Agu smiled, but the steps under his feet did not need Wang Zhennan to be slow at all. It was the first time he saw Wang Anshi. Since he was Wang Zhennan's grandfather, he was also his grandfather. After all, he was the uncle of the Wang family.

In the living room, an old man with white hair sat in the middle. The two ladies were sitting on both sides talking to the old man. Hearing the footsteps, the old man squinted at the king and others entering the room: "Beside."

"Dad." The king hurriedly came forward to salute.

"Free gift, Zhennan is behind you."

"I met my grandfather in Zhennan."

Seeing the next generation, Wang Anshi's smiling eyes narrowed. Now Wang Zhennan is the same height as Wang. Although he is not as tall as Wang, he is also the demeanor of the prince. The more Wang Anshi looks at it, the more he likes it. Looking at Wang Zhennan, there is a young man with a big waist and a round head. Mrs. Rouer said: "Father, this is your granddaughter-in-law, Wanyan Aguda."

"Wan Agu beats, not a Han man."

"Dad, he is the second son of my eldest brother Wanyan impeaching Libo, that is, the He Libo in my house back then. Do you remember?" The king sat down next to Wang Anshi and pointed to A Guda to explain to Wang Anshi.

Wang Anshi thought for a moment: "Remember, remember, haha, you are sworn brothers. I remember that there was also the adopted son of Tubo Dong Yan. At that time, you took the two of them to the house to visit me."

"Yes, I have a marriage contract with my brother, so I have become in-laws."

"Good thing, I remember this. Did Rouer also go to the Liao Dynasty to marry a girl some time ago?"

"Grandpa, you have a good memory. Er Niang also took me with her." Wang Zhennan said half coquettishly and half jokingly.

"This boy, I'm almost confused, and I'm still praised for my good memory. Haha, by the way, you two righteous brothers are doing well now."

"Well, they are better than me. My eldest brother impeached Libo is now the leader of the Wanyan tribe, and the Wanyan tribe has unified the Jurchens. The future of your granddaughter-in-law is unlimited."

Did you hear the praise for yourself from your father-in-law? Although there are ingredients that make my grandfather happy, Wanyan Aguda can't help but be excited. "Grandfather-in-law, father-in-law, don't worry, I will revitalize the Jurchen people."

"We don't care whether you revitalize the Jurchens or not, as long as you treat my sister well, right, Er Niang." Wang Zhennan asked Rouer with a smile, and both wives also laughed.

"That's a need to say." Wanyan Agu glanced at Wang Zhennan.

Wang Anshi covered his silver beard and smiled: "Sidely, I heard that you just came back from Tubo. Is this trip going well?"

"It's going well. The emperor sent me to Tubo. It's just because Tubo didn't come to worship during the Spring Festival. I didn't know until I went there that Dong Yan was critically ill at that time."

"Oh, the emperor is worried that Tubo is rebellious. Obviously, he sent you with the intention. Is Dong Yan all right now?" Although Wang Anshi is old, he is not confused.

"Dong Yan is dead, and now my second brother Ali Gu has ascended the throne as Zanpu."

Wang Anshi's smile was slightly frozen. It seemed that this was not like good news. In this way, the emperor could only be more wary of the king.

"What does the emperor think of this matter?"

"I haven't seen the emperor when I got back to the capital. A few days ago, I said that the emperor was not feeling well for half a month. Just now, a yellow gate official came to inform me to discuss the matter in the early morning tomorrow. I guess I will know what the emperor thinks of this matter tomorrow. By the way, why did my father arrive in the capital so soon?" Wang Bing saw that there was no simple Dai Zong and asked strangely.

"I came to the capital to see an old friend."

"So, Dad didn't see the person I sent to pick you up."

"You sent someone to pick me up, but I didn't see it. I picked me up in the capital. Is there anything important in the house?"

"It's not a big deal. I want to discuss some small things with my father. The child has just returned to the capital and can't leave for the time being, so I want to pick up my father."

According to Dai Zong's speed, if you can't pick up the old man, he will naturally come back soon: "Why did you come by yourself? Which old friend did you come to the capital to meet?"

"How could I come by myself? Chao Er came with me."

As soon as the voice fell, someone outside the door replied, "Yes."

Then a big man broke in and walked with food in his mouth: "Uh-huh, what did the master call me?"

"Where have you been?"

"I'm on my way. I'm hungry. Follow them to find something to eat." Chao Er made a gesture to the door, and everyone understood that he was talking about the servant of the house.

"Cho Er, it's hard to take care of the old man all the way. I will be rewarded a lot when I come back." Wang Bian looked at Chao Er and said with a smile. He hadn't seen Chao Er for more than a year. He was no longer like a woodcutter, dressed as an attendant.

"Oh, this is not the prince. Why are you here?"

"Nonsense, this is my house. I can't come yet." Wang knew that there was something wrong with Chao Er's words, and he began to make two words. Everything else was easy to change, but he couldn't change it.

"Ban" Chao Er was punched on the head: "You know how to eat. You can't talk well after following the old man for so long."

Chao Er looked back and said with a smile, "No, I mean, I just ate a bite, and everyone came out." The two of them have seen each other since they were in Jiangning, and they are naturally familiar with each other.

Wang Anshi and Wang Bian both shook their heads and laughed. Wang Anshi said, "Don't worry, Chao Er has been taking care of me with all my heart. If I'm gone in the future, you can find him a job in the house."

"Sir, how unlucky you are to say this." Chao Er muttered.

"Ha ha, there's nothing unlucky. After all, I'm old, and I also know that this is probably the last time I see this old friend."

"Dad, you have been talking about your old friend for a long time. Who are you talking about?"

"Who else, Sima Guang? I received a letter from him, saying that the Empress Dowager summoned him, so I promised him to come to the capital and meet my old friends."

"The Empress Dowager summoned." Wang was shocked. Did he want to change the rhythm, and the rhythm of history also changed? Sima Guang was only reactivated after Zhao Yu's death. Is it possible that Zhao Yu wants to die in advance? This is not okay. He still has something to solve with Zhao Yu.
