Chapter 477 The Second Goal

Sima Guang entered Chen Yuan's study: "Mr. Chen, the abrupt and abrupt person came from the office, but there was a question in his heart that was pressing on his heart. He really couldn't speak up."

Chen Yuan smiled and pointed to the chair beside him: "Please sit down and talk. If you have any questions, please speak. It is also my honor to be able to discuss with Master Sima."

Sima Guang's mouth tilted: "Does sir really think that implementing new policies in our dynasty can enrich the country and strengthen the army?"

Wealthy country and strengthening soldiers were the slogans proposed by Fan Zhongyan when he implemented the new policy. Chen Yuan said this question when he heard Sima Guang enter the door, but he did not give him a positive answer: "I don't know either, but I want to give it a try."

Sima Guang smiled slightly: "Have you ever thought that this country and country can be tried?"

Chen Yuan sighed: "I think no matter what I think, as long as it is good, we can try it."

"Including this strong army?"

Chen Yuan looked at him: "Didn't you agree in the end? Why, what do Lord Sima still have any opinions on this? If there is, why don't you say it now and let's discuss it."

Sima Guang said, "I agree because the emperor is going to implement the new policy, and I can't stop it. Xiaguan also thinks that Lord Chen's military supervision policy is very good and can limit the rights of military generals. But Xiaguan is really worried that if a large-scale war breaks out, such as when our Song Dynasty fights with the Liao Kingdom, if we lose, the Song Dynasty will be destroyed. If we win, the martial arts will enter the court in large numbers, and the Song Dynasty will still be destroyed."

Chen Yuan disagreed with this: "How dare Lord Sima be so sure that the generals will perish when they enter the court?"

Sima Guang began to quote the scriptures: "Don't Lord Chen know about the disaster of the Han and Tang Dynasties? If those warriors had not held heavy troops and despised the court, how could the Han and Tang Dynasties perish?"

Chen Yuan nodded: "What Lord Sima said makes sense, but it's strange. Liao Kingdom and Dangxiang fought to the door. If it weren't for those generals, what would Master Sima think it would be like now?"

Sima Guang immediately said, "I am not not preventing military generals from fighting, I just said that they cannot enter the court."

Chen Yuan stared at Sima Guang: "They set up military industry in war, why don't they let them enter the court? Is that fair to them?"

Sima Guang said: "You can give them more land and give them a marquis or something, and the court will not let them do their work in vain."

Chen Yuan slowly stood up and walked to Sima Guang: "Sir Sima, I will give you some land now, let you go home or not?"

Sima Guang stood up in a flash: "Mr. Chen, I have been reading the Book of Sages for so many years to serve the country! Don't compare it with those martial artists."

This is the superiority of the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty. Not only Sima Guang, but also Ouyang Xiu and Song Qi. However, some people are free and easy and can put down this sense of superiority, while others care about it and always want to maintain it.

Chen Yuan smiled: "Mr. Sima has spent ten years of hard study, but the soldiers at the border have paid their lives. I really think that those of us in the court cannot be compared with them."

Sima Guang nodded: "The officials knew it was difficult to convince the prince-consort. This time, they came here to tell the prince-consort that the prince-consort would never change. Your new policy will sooner or later harm the country and the people, and the officials will try their best to stop it."

Chen Yuan said: "Okay, I remember."

Sima Guang stood up and clasped his fists politely: "Goodbye by the Lord."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "No. By the way, Lord Sima, I will leave Bianjing City the morning after tomorrow. Some people said that I came back this time to make a fuss for private purposes. I just wanted to spend two more days with the princess."

Sima Guang was very happy: "It is a memorial for the lower officials. If Lord Chen thinks what the lower officials say is untrue, he can debate with the lower officials in the court."

Chen Yuan's smile became brighter and brighter: "Everything that Lord Sima said is true, so I will leave the morning after tomorrow. I also asked Lord Sima to make some preparations and go to Dangxiang with me."

Sima Guang was stunned for a moment: "What am I going to Dangxiang to do?"

Chen Yuan said: "General Liu Ping's army is a model of the new army. Now that we need to be equipped with a military supervisor, we naturally start from that team. I have already reported to Long Live that Lord Sima will be General Liu Ping's army supervisor. I think the imperial edict will come down soon."

Sima Guang was furious: "Mr. Chen! You!"

The ones he looked down upon were those martial artists. Now Chen Yuan asked him to partner with Liu Ping, which really annoyed Sima Guang!

Chen Yuan said calmly: "It's not me, it's the emperor's intention."

Sima Guang could no longer control his demeanor, and his chest was undulating rapidly. He left with a swing of his sleeves, and even forgot about the basic etiquette.

Chen Yuan smiled very happily. He could see that Sima Guang was not a bad person because he had an opinion first, he came to face him. This was a manifestation of fearlessness and openness.

Wang Anshi is not a bad person, but why did Sima Guang and Wang Anshi become incompatible in the end of history?

Not to mention anything else, Wang Anshi's abbot had been reforming for more than ten years. During this period, his strategy of strengthening the army allowed the Song Dynasty troops to defeat Xixia step by step and recover lost land thousands of miles away, which was considered to be outstanding in his contribution.

Even if other laws are not changed well, at least this one is nothing to say. After Sima Guang came to power, he completely denied it, and even the lost land was regained unconditionally to the Dangxiang people. Su Dongpo and Fan Chunyou turned against Sima Guang for this matter.

In fact, this is also a person's personality problem. Sima Guang's family, knowledge, and status in the court were much better than Wang Anshi at the beginning, but in the end he was suppressed by Wang Anshi for more than ten years. That kind of grievance would be enough to distort a person's personality once it erupted.

The Sima Guang that Chen Yuan saw now was far less narrow than the one he would be in the future, and he was considered a promising young man.

No matter what, as long as it is not a person like Pang Ji, even Lu Yijian and Chen Yuan can cooperate happily. He believes that Sima Guang will change his views on the warriors after he goes to the battlefield.

The most important thing is that Sima Guang saw the Dangxiang issue very thoroughly, which coincided with Chen Yuan's opinion. If possible, if he is willing in the future, Chen Yuan planned to let him deal with Dangxiang's issue, and he gave it to him, asking Renzong to grant him another Japanese comfort envoy.

The Liao Kingdom? Time really didn't come. That must be something that Song Dynasty took a breath before he could do after appeased Dangxiang.

During this period, *** and Japan can be the best weapon test sites, providing the Song Dynasty with a steady stream of silver to make the Song Dynasty more powerful. Also, they can continue to keep Renzong passionate.

Chen Yuan’s return this time was quite good. Not only did he see Zhao Yi, but he also put a reform opinion from Fan Zhongyan into implementation, which means that the new policy has fired the first shot.

In fact, this is a war without seeing the smoke of gunpowder. In history, the Song Dynasty had already had an era of capitalism. Many clauses in Wang Anshi's reforms were accused of "competing for profit with the people", which means that Wang Anshi had noticed what kind of turning point would it bring to the Song Dynasty if the connection between officials and merchants was established.

To be honest, Chen Yuan does not like capitalism. Capitalism is ultimately a cheating, but it is undeniable that that path is the fastest way for a country to achieve the fastest accumulation of capital, at least in Chen Yuan's opinion.

No one is rich without wealth. After using all your money for me and robbed all the ancient civilizations in the world, the gentlemen in Europe said openly: "We are the most developed and open country in the world, and you are all behind."

After using the most brutal means in human history to defeat China for decades, they would feel puzzled when they saw China's family planning policy: "Oh my God, how could there be such a barbaric country?"

This is the civilization of capitalism.

Off topic.

Chen Yuanyi's initial ideal was to be Bill Gates of the Song Dynasty, but he didn't think so now. Because this goal was almost achieved. When the Dangxiang war ended and when the war between *** and *** began, his money would come, and he would not be much inferior to Bill Gates.

This is how people are, especially people like Chen Yuan, who will not be content. When one goal is achieved, he will achieve the next one.

Chen Yuan never thought that he could do anything, he was a superman. He just wanted to use the money he was about to get and his current relationship network to help Fan Zhongyan succeed in reform! It was Fan Zhongyan's reform, not Chen Yuan's reform.

Although Chen Yuan was following the primitive accumulation of capitalism, he did not want to bring this system into the court because he felt that he did not need to do so.

As long as the Song Dynasty avoided the five hundred years of regression in history, I believe that the Song Dynasty would not have to follow the system of the gentlemen, because we will become the rule-making people.

Chen Yuan knew that he did not have the ability to innovate, but he believed in other people, because except for the experience of Chen Yuan, the rest were better than him. For example, Di Qing and Fan Zhongyan.

Use your own experience and the remaining decades to cooperate with them to help the Song Dynasty complete the path that the Chinese nation began in the late Qing Dynasty, so that this path will not become as bloody and tragic as it will in the future. As for the future, let the future people go by themselves.

Chen Yuan is a lazy person. He will not ask himself to build an empire that never sets, and do his best for the rest of his life.

This was his second goal after coming to the Song Dynasty.

Another great gain this time was that he kidnapped two innocent and ideal boys. When Chen Yuan left Bianjing, he rushed to the carriage quickly, and sat in the carriage Wang Anshi and Sima Guang were fighting like roosters.

The two of them quarreled since they got on the bus, and they never stopped during this period.

Liang Huaiji was also following outside the carriage. He really came, and he came willingly.
