On the way home, Wen Jifu kept thinking about Wu Anshi.

To be honest, he was a little confused.

To be honest, when Wu Chong was here, he was still very popular.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many in-laws.

There are more than a few daughters who are married to the sons of the Prime Minister's family.

Even the sons married ladies from the families of high-ranking officials and celebrities.

During his lifetime, he had countless disciples and old friends.

Being in the palace is also very relevant!

However……

It is such a large network of relationships that seems to be indestructible and omnipotent.

Now it seems to be disabled.

This made Wen Jifu somewhat worried.

Because it is easy for him to think of himself.

I remember that back then, he Wen Liu and Wu Anzhi, the third eldest son of the Wu family, were both the yamen of Bianjing City when they were young.

They are good brothers and close buddies who drank wine together, went to jail together, and were scorned together.

So, after returning home and going to his old father to report the incident, Wen Jifu mentioned what happened when he met Wu An today and expressed some emotion.

He also said: "Sir, I don't understand. The Wu family in Jianzhou is also a famous family in the country... My Lord Taishan is also an important minister in the country..."

"He has a long history and has also served as Cardinal Bing..."

"Why did it end up like this?"

"Isn't this a system where the country treats scholar-bureaucrats favorably?"

This was something he couldn't figure out.

A second-generation official like him is born with a golden key in his mouth.

Growing up, no matter how big the mess was, my father would always clean up the mess, and his colleagues and friends would help clean up the mess.

Even the emperor will give you special treatment.

When you make a mistake, the board is raised high and falls gently.

Therefore, Wen Jifu has always felt that this kind of thing will continue and remain unchanged.

However, meeting Wu Anshi today made him tremble all over.

Because it seems that all this will not change forever.

Moreover, once it changes, he may not have time to react.

Wen Yanbo looked at his silly son and sat up, with some relief in his eyes: "You're not so stupid! There's still hope!"

In the past year, Wen Jifu had to be beaten sooner or later because he served and acted in front of Wen Yanbo every day. In fact, he was used to his old father's PUA, so he immediately knelt down obediently, kowtowed and asked: "May I ask, sir?"

Give me some advice."

"What is the Wu family in Jianzhou?" Wen Yanbo sneered.

The Wu family is indeed a famous family in the country.

Wu Yu, brother of Wu Chong, was a famous official in Renmiao. He started his career by studying the system of science and entered officialdom. He was very talented.

Later, he entered the central government and became a judge of salt and iron and a judge of household affairs. He eventually participated in politics as an official and left an extremely strong political legacy to the Wu family.

Wu Chong followed his eldest brother to become an official, and his official career almost followed in the footsteps of Wu Yu.

Wu Yu sentenced Taichang Liyuan, and Wu Chong also sentenced Taichang Liyuan.

Wu Yu was the judge of salt and iron and the judge of household affairs, while Wu Chong was the deputy envoy of Qunmu, and later the deputy envoy of salt and iron.

The two brothers worked hard in Taichang Liyuan and Sansi one after another.

As a result, the Wu family formed a huge force in the economic decision-making field of the Song Dynasty.

It was this force that pushed Wu Chong to take over as prime minister after Wang Anshi resigned as prime minister.

But what's the use?

"After the death of Fu Yanguo, his son Fu Shaoting has been living in Luoyang. Even after the death of the late emperor, he did not dare to return to Bianjing. Why do you think that is?" Wen Yanbo looked at Wen Jifu and asked.

Wen Jifu swallowed his saliva and replied with a trembling voice: "Sir, isn't it because Fu Dexian is sick?"

"Haha!" Wen Yanbo felt ridiculous for his son's romantic naivety: "What do you believe in what others say?"

"Fu Shaoting is more addicted to officialdom than anyone else!"

"Otherwise, Fu Yanguo wouldn't have written that note for him back then!"

"Believe it or not, as long as I write a letter recommending Fu Shaoting to return to Beijing as an official, Fu Shaoting's illness will be cured immediately?"

Is Fu Shaoting suffering from a disease?

maybe!

However, after the death of his old father, an official fan discovered that his name was not on the official list.

The Ministry of Personnel also stopped selecting officials for him.

Can he bear it?

This is the root of the disease!

Wen Jifu blinked his eyes, but his brain did not react, so he asked directly: "Then why doesn't your Excellency recommend De Xian?"

Wen Yanbo narrowly escaped being choked.

"Alas!" He sighed. Fortunately, he was used to the mediocrity of his sons and had even begun to appreciate them.

At the very least, Wen Jifu and Wen Yiqing will still lie down.

At the very least, they won't bring trouble to the family!

At least they will be obedient!

Wen Yanbo glanced at Wen Jifu coldly and said, "Do I have a good relationship with Fu Yanguo?"

Wen Jifu swallowed his saliva and thought to himself, "Isn't it bad?"

In his impression, the Wen and Fu families lived together in Luoyang.

The Wen family also had close contacts with wealthy families.

In the past, when Duke Fu Zheng was here, he often held banquets at home to invite his father, and his father also went to the banquets every time.

Isn’t this considered a good relationship?

Wen Yanbo looked at his stupid son and sighed. He had no choice but to remind this stupid son!

"Among the sons of Fuyan Kingdom, can any of their sons marry my Wen family's daughter?"

"I, among you, have any of you marrying a rich man?"

The relationship between the governors and elders of the dynasty is very complicated and cannot be judged by marriage relationships.

However, if two rulers who are "like-minded" in the court and sing poems to each other in private do not form a family, they do not even talk about it.

Then one can imagine the true relationship between these two rulers.

Wen Jifu's eyes widened and he finally woke up!

Indeed, the old father had eight sons and five daughters in his life, but none of them married into a wealthy family.

Not only that, they have never even discussed marriage!

"Don't say that I and Tomi Yanguo are just casual acquaintances!"

That old man Fu Bi never really respected Wen Yanbo when he was alive!

Even when the Senior Citizens Association was established, he was the last one to notify it.

Wen Yanbo even suspected that if it weren't for others, he would be in Luoyang.

Tomihiko wouldn't even ask him to participate.

That was purely a polite invitation.

He just agreed politely.

Therefore, it is natural that after the death of Fu Yanguo, the Qiying Association disintegrated on the spot, and the thirteen elders each went about their own business.

"Even if I have a good relationship with Fu Yanguo, it's impossible for me to have a good relationship, and I won't care about his family's affairs!"

Fu Bi was about to die that year and left his last words, but he called Sima Twelve over.

He didn't even ask the wealthy family to come to his house and politely invite him, Wen Yanbo, to witness it.

Finally, Fu Bi's suicide note was even ghostwritten by Fan Zuyu, a disciple of Sima Twelve.
