Chapter 744 The tacit understanding between Zhao Xu and Wen Yanbo(1/7)
In March of the second year of Yuanyou, Renshen (20).
Chaosan Dafu Duan officially retired with a stewardship of Jiangning Chongxiguan.
This lord is a tragedy in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty!
As early as five years ago, Duancun was requesting to retire.
I hope to get some salary so that I can support my family.
However, the court refused to agree!
Therefore, this Jinshi, who was a Jinshi in the Qingli period and an official with outstanding political achievements in the past, could only wait from the age of 69 until now.
Because there is no dispatch, I can only receive the salary of my own and the honorary officials.
And he can only get half a salary and also lose his color.
But I need to support a family and save dowry for my granddaughters and great-granddaughters.
He was also a clean official, and had no savings for decades, and his life could be said to be quite poor (in terms of his status!)
And the reason why the segments fell into this field.
The main reason is that he offended two people he shouldn't have offended.
The first one that should not be offended was Wang Anshi when he was young.
It’s not that he offended Wang Anshi himself—Wang Anshi was very generous in his early years, far from the later instigation of his husband.
The key point is that he offended Wang Anshi's close friend, Zeng Gong, who was like a brother!
In modern times, some people jokingly call Yinxiang, the younger brother of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty, the executive vice emperor.
If you offend Yongzheng, you may still have a way out.
But even if Yinxiang is generous, Yongzheng will definitely put him in a big way.
And Zeng Gong is Wang Anshi's Yinxiang.
Unfortunately, during the Huangyou period, Duan Cun tried his best to belittle Zeng Gong.
Wang Anshi was furious and wrote an article "Answer Duancuo Shu" directly, calling for his name to start scolding.
From the name, we can see how angry Wang Anshi is - answering Duancunshu, not [reply to Duan Junshu].
This is no longer about the decentness of scholars and officials!
The content is extremely explosive, and there are even more unceremonious threatening words - I respect myself, don't talk about Gong lightly!
Don't be shameless!
Next time I will let me see you criticize my Uncle Zeng San, I will slap you!
There are so many bonds between Zeng Gong and Wang Anshi that you can't imagine.
They are the grandmother of Wu, the wife of Wang Anshi, and Zeng Gong's aunt.
Therefore, Wang Anshi is Zeng Gong's niece and son-in-law in his seniority.
At the same time, Wang Anshi's younger brother Wang Anguo's first wife is Zeng Gong's sister.
So, they are still in-laws.
They are also family friends - Wang Anshi's father Wang Yi and Zeng Gong's father Zeng Yizhan are good friends for life.
They are classmates and confidants - Zeng Gong, the one who recommended Wang Anshi to Ouyang Xiu.
How close are the two?
Wang Anshi's grandmother, parents and father-in-law died, and the epitaphs were written by Zeng Gong!
Duan Cun offended Zeng Gong, but it was even worse than offending Wang Anshi!
When Wang Anshi became famous, Duancun immediately encountered various suppression.
Although he has outstanding political achievements, he has been staying in the capital.
Everyone around him has been promoted, but he is still standing still.
Fortunately, he is lucky.
In the third year of Xining, Ouyang Xiu was appointed as the governor of Caizhou, and it happened that the section was cut in Baoxin County under Caizhou as the magistrate.
What Ouyang Xiu likes the most is to promote young people.
So I soon discovered the crack and then strongly supported him in doing things.
With Ouyang Xiu's support, Duan Cage cut off the Lu River water in Baoxin County, guided the river water eastward according to the terrain, and built it, dredged twenty ditches, and led the Donglu River water to irrigate hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland. Baoxin County has no famine since then.
Wang Anshi must not refuse Ouyang Xiu's face.
So he promoted him to a court official and allowed him to be the power to help the country's army.
During the Xingguo Army's tenure, Duancun still had outstanding political achievements.
However, soon, Wang Anshi stopped his preface again.
Duan Cang was caught in a new vortex, and because of his reckless actions, he offended an enemy who was countless times more terrifying than Wang Anshi - Cai Que!
Wang Anshi is a clean person, but he has a little stubborn temper.
However, it is still clear in terms of right and wrong.
As long as you don’t play against him, even if you oppose the new law, Wang Anshi will still be promoted as long as you have political achievements.
But Cai is different.
Cai Que is full of power and tricks.
If you offend him, don't think of a peaceful life.
Unfortunately, Duancun was involved in the old and new party struggles in the early years of Yuanfeng.
And became a chess piece in Wu Chong's hands.
He didn't know it yet, so he rushed forward with a reckless head.
When Wu Chong stopped his prefecture and the old party was defeated, Cai Que began to settle accounts after the autumn.
Cai Que used a trick to kill people without blood when facing Duancun, a crossing river.
First, he arranged for him to govern Taizhou.
This is a good assignment!
Just when Duan Nuan was happily taking his family to Taizhou to prepare for office.
Cai Que instructed Yousi to change him to another place - Langzhou Tongzhe!
Taizhou, in the southeast, is the hometown of fish and rice.
Langzhou is in Shu, and it can be said that the mountains surround all directions and the water surrounds three directions.
The most terrible thing is that from Taizhou in the southeast, we traveled all the way to Langzhou in Shu.
This is clearly a life-threatening person.
Duancun also knows that it is amazing.
He immediately wrote a letter and requested to go to Yingtian Prefecture, Nanjing for recuperation on the grounds of being sick.
As a result, this official with a bright future and outstanding political achievements was directly interrupted by his official career.
For so many years, he has lived in Yingtian Prefecture.
Want to retire? No!
Want to send a mission? Then let’s play with you! I’ll play with you to death!
It is clear that you want to play with him within the rules!
This time, Duan Cun was able to successfully retire and even got the palace temple official he had always dreamed of. He was the palace temple in Chongxiguan in his hometown of Jiangning Prefecture. He could return home openly, so naturally he had a relationship with Zhang Fangping.
Zhang Fangping wrote a letter to Zhao Xu and explained the matter of Duan Censer to Zhao Xu.
The person who helped Duan Cut out the relationship between Zhang Fangping was Su Shi's good friend, Zhang Fangping's son-in-law Zong Zhengcheng Wang Gong.
How did the section crack fit Wang Gong's line?
Because Su Da Bei’er!
From the seventh to the eighth year of Yuanfeng, Su Dahuzi wandered between Jiangning and Yingtian Mansion and made friends everywhere.
After being introduced by someone, I got to know Duankuan and then introduced Duankuan to Wang Gong.
Wang Gong and Duancuo quickly became familiar with each other. After Zhang Fangping entered the court, he kept saying good things to Duancuo and asked for policies.
After doing this, Zhao Xu was also helpless.
Because the resume of Duan Cun is almost perfect and has outstanding ability to do things.
Even among the Jinshi in Qingli, he can still rank in the top 20.
At least in civil affairs, he is very strong.
