Chapter 1079 This damn familiar feeling

Spring passes and autumn comes, winter passes and spring comes again.

On the land of Henan Road, there is a scene of spring planting of hope. Officials in charge of agriculture, as well as people who specialize in agriculture, are busy everywhere guiding people to plant. The people work as a family unit and sweat in the fields. In some places, there are even yamen servants and soldiers from various places, using manpower on a large scale to help poor households plow and sow.

At this time when spring and Jingming were full of hope, Wang Yan held a fan and led several servants to check the situation of spring plowing outside Xiazhou City.

The administrative office on Henan Road was naturally located in Fushi, but in order to facilitate the management of the front line, Wang Yan moved the administrative office to Xiazhou. He has to stand in front, not hide behind.

In this way, Xixia in the west and Khitan in the east have more advantages in information transmission, and have corresponding advantages in accelerating regional prosperity, population integration, etc.

Although Zhao and Song were not good enough, and although they were unable to expand externally, it did not stop the scholar-bureaucrats from top to bottom from treating foreigners as human beings. They treat their own people badly, and they treat foreigners even worse...

His policies here have actually been questioned. It's just that he didn't spend the court's money and made this place prosperous. This is just too much pressure...

The land here is relatively insufficient. In the past time, Wang Yan passed on all the agricultural methods he knew, such as retting, deep plowing, rotational cultivation, and intercropping.

In addition, he also brought in cotton for planting. After such a long time, cotton planting had actually started long ago. When he was in Hangzhou, he found seeds, and now there are cotton-padded clothes there.

It's just that because of insufficient food production, if people are allowed to plant crops without a plan, there will be a national food shortage. Officials are certainly aware of this. So we just farmed some land in various regions, or in other words, on the land of each family of officials, and everyone wore cotton clothes and covered themselves with cotton quilts.

Of course, there are also those who are willing to plant it on a large scale. On the one hand, they sell cotton, and on the other hand, they disgustingly reduce food production, so that they can make another fortune. After Wang Yan heard about it, he did everything. There must still be people secretly growing it now, but it is still within control. It doesn't matter if you can't control it anymore, just kill him. All the big households were raided, and the food was enough for the people of the country for three years.

Now that Wang Yan is in charge of a large territory, he can control it himself, so he officially supports cotton cultivation here.

On the other hand, with this expansion of territory, he also got the pastures at the north and south ends of the Mu Us Desert, where he could herd sheep, cattle, and raise horses. He stationed a horse supervisor here, with horse officials in charge of horse administration and horse breeding. He is a professional man and all the horses he has assigned have stayed with him, and he is actively expanding his army.

As we all know, the Henan Army is the strongest army in the world and has never been defeated...

As for the issue of increasing food production, it is naturally potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, etc. He has already made arrangements for this. He has a shipyard in Haiyan and is currently working on building large ships.

Sea-going ships sailing offshore have been able to build and form a fleet. They trade back and forth to Southeast Asia, purchase grain there, and build several flour mills there to grind the grain into flour and preserve it for a long time. Ships were shipped back one by one, repairing walls for the Song Dynasty, and hoarding food themselves.

Still quietly preparing and infiltrating...

There are other road construction, bridge building and water conservancy projects, schools, academies, libraries, granaries and other functional buildings, as well as other brick kilns, steel mills and cotton clothing factories that produce cotton, as well as various mines. Industrial construction of this era such as factories and so on.

Even now, spring plowing does not waste too much time, because the Xixia soldiers who were previously captured, as well as the officials, gangsters, and wealthy households who were dealt with are still there, and they have undertaken various construction tasks very well...

"Alang! Alang!"

In the distance, Xiao Dongliang's shout came.

Wang Yan stopped, opened his fan with a snap, and waited for Xiao Dongliang to ride over.

"Alang, the two ladies and the young master are here."

"You're already going to be a father, and yet you're so rash, why don't you just ask someone else to come over for a trip?" Wang Yan said in a small scolding manner, waving his hands to the nearby officials, "Let's go, go do your own thing."

After saying that, he got on his horse, took a few followers with him, and rode back to the city.

To be honest, he slightly underestimated the consciousness of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty.

Previously, he said that given his current status and personal family situation, his wife and children must be in the capital as hostage. But now, as Xiao Dongliang reported, three years after he took office in the border area and had a history of private military service, Hualan and Shulan came over with their children.

The real situation is that now that my wife and children are here, I still have to wait for a few years...

With a term of three years, Wang Yan's time here is enough, even if he has just been promoted. On the other hand, he also missed his wife and children. These are the two main contents of his official letter to the Political Affairs Hall asking for transfer back to Beijing.

In fact, he has no shortage of women, and there are too many people who flatter him. Whether it's officials or big businessmen who haven't been dealt with here, businessmen from other places who come here to do business, or other high-ranking officials. Even the Sheng family sent women to him, and Hualan also sent beautiful girls to serve him.

He just felt that it was almost time to express his attitude, but he did not expect to agree to his wife and children leaving Beijing.

In fact, it is normal to think about it. He has no family ties and is alone. He is also young and has no shortage of women and children. It is useless to keep Hua Lan and others as hostages in Beijing. But it’s not easy to really let go.

After all, Hua Lan and others are in Beijing, so they have hostages. If it’s not in Beijing, then it doesn’t exist. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, having a hostage in hand will always make you feel more comfortable, and it is not completely useless. For example, Wang Yanzhen rebelled and abandoned his wife and children. This was a major stain on his life, and it was also an important warning to those who followed him.

Now that Hua Lan and others have been agreed to leave Beijing, it means that Wang's label as a 'loyal minister of the Song Dynasty' has been completely nailed...

Back at the mansion, a large group of people came in and out of the door, moving things on the twenty or so carriages that came with them. Wang Yan believed that Hualan and Shulan had brought as few things as possible.

When they entered the courtyard, they saw Hua Lan and Shu Lan playing with the children, and the maid and housekeeper Wang Youyin beside them were giving orders. They had obviously taken over the mansion naturally.

"Ladies, are you okay with coming all the way?"

"Official~"

The words Hualan and Shulan were called official, it was like a thousand twists and turns. Hualan's children didn't care and rushed over directly. Shulan obviously wanted to do the same, but she still stopped in the end and was a little confused. The forced Young Master Wang and her own Second Young Master looked at her good official with moist eyes on one side...

After comforting the two women who missed Wang Daguan, Wang Yan squatted there and looked at the two little ones with a smile.

"Do you know who I am?"

The two little ones blinked their big eyes, said nothing, and subconsciously stepped back, looking a little scared.

"When we were in the capital, didn't we call for daddy all the time? Why are we scared now? We haven't called him daddy yet!" Hua Lan said angrily, and one of them even spanked her little buttocks.

"Daddy..."

After being beaten, the two little ones timidly muttered in a low voice...

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, patted his two little heads, hugged one with each other, and said, "You two usually take care of your children at home, right?"

"When I go out occasionally, I don't take my children with me and let my family watch. I'm afraid something might happen." Hua Lan said, "Guanren, the two younger ones haven't seen you. They just need to spend some time together. In the capital, When I was young, I was very naughty. I would do whatever I was told not to do, and I would never end my anger with them. "

"Yes, sir, Wenhua and Wenxia are both very active, and they will cause trouble if they can't help it."

In fact, these things have been mentioned in the letters exchanged in the past, but the two of them always talk about it. As they talked, the food was ready, and the family gathered around the table to eat. The three adults ate their own food, and the two little ones could eat basically everything. Wang Yan did not let the little maid wait on the side, but let the two of them sit on the higher stools he had made before. The child eats messily by himself. The little maid was watching from behind, just trying not to let the two little things fall down.

Seeing that Wang Yan was raising his son, Hua Lan and Shulan suppressed any inappropriate remarks and turned to talking about things in Beijing, as well as the affairs of the first and second bedrooms of the Sheng family.

"Official, my father has been transferred back to the capital. Have you received the letter?"

"I got it. It's a coincidence that you arrived at the right time. You finally got to meet your family. Otherwise, my husband wouldn't know how long he would have to stay in the northwest before going back."

Hua Lan sighed: "My father also said that officials are asking for this."

"Everyone has his own way of life. I asked for it, but this official is also very comfortable. Now our family is reunited, and it doesn't matter whether I go back to Beijing or not. The northwest is also good. When you have a rest, I will take you everywhere." Go take a walk and take a look.”

"Now that the officials are in charge, they don't dare to miss important matters due to personal affairs." Shulan said very considerately.

"We have been in business for more than a year, so we just follow the steps. Just like when I was in Hangzhou, I took the two of you and these two little things with me while inspecting the place. It doesn't affect anything. The people who should be dealt with have already been dealt with, so there is no need If you are worried about being surrounded by others, just listen to me and don’t say anything.”

Wang Yan waved his hand and asked, "How is Changbai? He is already twenty this year, and there is no news about his marriage? I remember you told me that many people want to marry Changbai and be related to me, so Many people didn’t like it?”

"We are not preparing for the imperial examination. We will look good after getting the Jinshi. Changbai is ambitious and does not want to rely on the reputation of his brother-in-law, an official. However, he failed to pass the exam, so he was very depressed for a while."

"He is still young and has plenty of time."

"Master, please don't say this to Chang Bai, otherwise you may become even more depressed." Hua Lan shook his head in amusement.

Wang Yan took the imperial examination at the age of nineteen, and at the age of twenty-six he was promoted to the Henan Road Economic and Technological Envoy. He was a high-ranking official in charge of the military and political affairs of a country. It was hard to compare everyone from the emperor to the ministers to collectively choose to suppress...

Changbai definitely has a future, and he would have done well as an official.

As for Sheng Hong, he wanted to be on the safe side and was only interested in pursuing his own personal gain. He did not dare to go against the big players and all he got were superficial political achievements. This time Ren Man was transferred back to the capital from Dengzhou, and it was Wang Yan who helped run the operation. He was transferred to the Household Department under the Third Division to cooperate with Fan Zhongyan in collecting commercial taxes.

This matter is a general trend, and it doesn't affect anything. If you do it well, you can still get credit. Moreover, Sheng Hong himself was quite capable. He was also a Jinshi after all. He had governed local affairs for many years and had rich practical experience. If he doesn't reform, it's because he doesn't dare, not because he doesn't know what's good and what's bad, and he doesn't understand why.

As for the mess in the Sheng family's back house, Hua Lan simply mentioned it without saying much. Of course, Lin Sushuang fought back and forth with the Wang family, and the Wei family who survived guarded their son and daughter honestly, which was pretty good...

The family was eating and laughing, chatting and gossiping. After eating and washing up, they naturally felt like they had not seen each other for a long time and expressed their longing for each other vigorously and heartily...

After Hualan and Shulan came here with their children, their lives were no different, except that they had more time to communicate with their children sooner or later.

He himself is still so free and easy, taking charge of the overall situation and doing a good job of supervision, and the rest is nothing to do with him. He even began to take time to give lectures to scholars and published the third book "Wang Yanshuo".

Compared with when he served as the military inspector in the Kaifeng Prefecture Military Inspectorate, he is obviously more awesome now, and he is awesome to the sky. If you want civilized governance, you must have civilized governance; if you want martial arts, you must have martial arts.

According to Shu Sunbao's "Three Immortals of Saints", he cultivated the people, made them rich and lived a stable life, in order to establish virtue. He solved the long-standing disadvantages of Zhao and Song, defeated Xixia, and forced Liao to seek peace, which was a meritorious service. He published three volumes of "Wang Yan Shuo" to promote his political ambitions, teach methodology, encourage people to cultivate their moral character, and seek benefits for the people.

And he is only twenty-six years old, and the achievements he has made today are already unmatched by anyone. If in his lifetime, he could defeat Xixia and Khitan and create a prosperous age unprecedented in the Song Dynasty. Then there is no doubt that he is a saint.

Now, he has to be a half-saint.

Now it is no longer the time for him to preach everywhere. Now it is for others to take the initiative to study and read his books. In today's Song Dynasty, not only the Song Dynasty, but also Xixia, Khitan, and Dali. It is already a shame for the cultural people in these places not to have read his books.

Even many people from wealthy families who did not take the imperial examination had to read it. They tried to see their own future from Wang Yan's teachings...

Moreover, in many places, scholars spontaneously organized club activities to collectively study and discuss his doctrines, which has aroused considerable repercussions. The scholars spontaneously named Wang Yan's knowledge "New Learning". Originally I was going to call him 'Wang Xue', but it was obviously inappropriate and a bit taboo.

It's just that the 'New Learning' has not yet been officially accepted, and it has only set off a trend of thought among the people, with the shadow of a 'movement'. When the content of his doctrine appears in the official imperial examination questions, then it will really become popular in the Song Dynasty. After all, they still serve the court.

Time passed like this, and in the blink of an eye, it was the second year of Jiayou, 1057 in the Western calendar. The so-called No. Dragon and Tiger Ranking in the Millennium, Su Shi, Su Che, Zhang Zai, Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi, Zeng Gong, Zeng Bu, Lu Huiqing, Zhang Dun, Wang Shao and many other celebrities were all passed this year. , Ouyang Xiu is the examiner. He has completed his filial piety and has returned to Beijing for three years.

Others, Han Qi, Fu Bi and others, also returned to Beijing one after another. The capital is still quite lively now.

Unfortunately, Wang Yan's tenure in the Northwest was about to end this year. If he had to say that he had gained something, it was probably that he had one more son and one more daughter.

The third son was born to Hua Lan and was named Wen Fu. The fourth girl was naturally born to Shulan and was named Wen Shu.

Wang Yan didn't care if the girl had another name, and directly added the middle name of the boy in the family. He had the final say anyway.

As for other matters, it is nothing more than that the lives of the people on Henan Road have become better in recent years. The new banknotes he issued are now used throughout the northwest. In addition, combined with the horses he bred, bought, and robbed, his cavalry force expanded to 25,000, and he also expanded the number of Xiang troops, bringing the total number of troops stationed on Henan Road to 170,000.

He couldn't expand the Forbidden Army, but he could make the decision on the Xiang Army. It also traded directly with the state capital, hoarded a lot of grain and grass, and also dispatched and produced a lot of ordnance under various names.

If he hadn't held the title of loyal minister of the Song Dynasty, people would have known what he was going to do, and they might have thought that he was going to rebel.

He is a person who is being closely watched, how could his actions be concealed. So people thought that he was secretly preparing to start a war. He was cooperating with the secret preparations to start a war. When everyone saw through it, they didn't say anything, but they had to cooperate until the time came.

But if they were to cause trouble for Wang Yan, they would never do it. Because they would not let Wang Yan fight, they would transfer Wang Yan back to Beijing. The current capital city is already very lively because of the reunion of Fan Zhongyan and others. If Wang Yan goes back and has the support of Fan Zhongyan and others, wouldn't it be completely over?

So they could only watch and cooperate silently.

Wang Yan never disappoints everyone who has expectations of him.

In September of the second year of Jiayou, after the autumn harvest, Wang Yan wrote a letter saying that the Khitan border troops shot arrows into our territory for no reason and killed a sheep. The people asked the Song Dynasty border troops for help, and the officers went to the other side to ask for an explanation. The Khitan side not only refused to give He made excuses and even insulted our Song Dynasty border troops.

The generals were all angry and appealed to each level. It is already too much to suppress, and a war between the two countries may occur at any time. Please ask Zhao Zhen and Zhengshitang for instructions...

After receiving Wang Yan's letter, the first person to see Wang Yan's letter was Cheng Kan, who had been transferred back to political affairs after the peace talks.

Looking at the long document and the murderous handwriting that appeared on the back of the paper in one go, Old Cheng's hands were shaking a little.

Straight bitch, this damn familiar feeling...

　I would like to express my daily gratitude to the good brothers who vote monthly, recommend and read quietly for their strong support!
