Chapter 1102 So the candidate to succeed me can only be from... (Second update)
Chapter 1111

Seeing Su Dongpo's worried look on his face, Emperor Zhao Xu, who was also filled with worries at first, suddenly felt much better. Well, after all, having someone to share his troubles with could indeed alleviate a lot of inner pressure.

"What kind of person is Wang Wushan? He must have a reason for doing this." Emperor Zhao Xu explained to Wang Yang with a smile.

Su Dongpo nodded slightly, and then looked at the memorial in his hand.After reading it carefully, he let out a soft sigh. "I can't think of his thoughts, but it coincides with the old man."

"Now we, the Song Dynasty, do not have the strength and confidence to compete with Bei Liao after all. If he leaves the North Shaanxi Road, it will be equivalent to giving the emperor of Bei Liao a big step to step down."

"Yes, my Great Song Dynasty, if there are more unparalleled national scholars like Wang Wushan who are brave enough to do things, and are willing to endure humiliation, and serve the country and the people wholeheartedly, it would be great..." The emperor Zhao Xu also deeply agreed Nodding again and again, full of emotion.

Hearing Zhao Xu's evaluation of Wang Wushan, Su Dongpo's face was full of relief. After all, in his heart, he always regarded Wang Yang and Wang Wushan as his sons and nephews.

He even joked with the emperor Zhao Xu in leisure and elegance. "Your Majesty, you are the only one who is a unparalleled national scholar. If there are more people, how can you be called a unparalleled national scholar?"

Emperor Zhao Xu was stunned at first, then burst out laughing, and nodded repeatedly. "Su Qing's words are reasonable. That's right. The national scholar is unparalleled, and the unparalleled national scholar. But then again, if he leaves Shaanxi North Road, nine out of ten courtiers will agree with him."

"Naturally, he has made great achievements time and time again on Shaanxi North Road. The veteran remembers that when he, Wang Wushan, followed the veteran to Shaanxi Road, he was just a seventh-rank horse to undertake official duties.

Now, in just three years, he is already the Duke of the founding county of the second rank.Such a speed of promotion has made many people jealous and greedy. "

Hearing Su Dongpo's evaluation, Emperor Zhao Xu couldn't help but snorted. "Greedy? Hehe, those ministers in the court, except for their sharp mouth, how many people can do things like Wang Wushan?

How many people in my Great Song Dynasty can achieve those feats?Expand the territory, subdue tens of thousands of Xixia elite soldiers, and obtain several states.Then, less than two years after operating Shaanxi North Road, the population exploded to nearly 200 million.The people have enough food and clothing to live and work in peace and contentment. "

"All industries are prosperous, business is prosperous, the border town is peaceful, and the four barbarians are conquered... His king Wushan is more than enough to be the founder of the county."

Listening to the emperor angrily complaining and counting Wang Yang's achievements, even Su Dongpo couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. Even though Wang Yang, a little bastard, has been away from the capital for more than three years, the holy family has not diminished in the slightest.

Think about it, no matter who the emperor is, if there are such courtiers who have made great achievements, can they turn a blind eye?

Su Dongpo narrowed his eyes, stroked his long beard and said in a deep voice. "If it wasn't for the fact that the old minister had just returned to Beijing from Shaanxi for more than a year, otherwise, the old minister really wanted to take over this class for him, Wang Wushan."

"Oh? Why did Su Qing say that? Could it be that he thinks that Shaanxi North Road needs an important official like you to sit in it?" Emperor Zhao Xu couldn't help being stunned, and asked with some astonishment.

"Your Majesty, the Shaanxi North Road is, after all, very different from the roads of the Great Song Dynasty. Not to mention anything else, just the bank, which represents the loan approved by the government. If no one can calm down, he can If the ministers who can suppress them are sitting there, there is a high probability that chaos will arise."

"Now the matter of Fugui Bank is a lesson for the past. Looking at the government and the public, there are only a few people who can be so strong and not afraid of power. In addition, there are Beiliao Hushi in the east of Shaanxi North Road, and Xixia Wolves in the west. , those who are not courageous and strong-willed cannot sit in command..."

Su Dongpo's analysis made the son of heaven Zhao Xu nod his head again and again. This is definitely an old saying.

"In addition, this person needs to have a deep understanding of the various government orders and government affairs of North Shaanxi Road, and is willing to continue to implement Wang Wushan's various government orders on North Shaanxi Road.

In this way, Shaanxi North Road can maintain this speed and continue to develop.Otherwise, if you go to an official in charge, but feel that there are problems with all the policies that Wang Wushan erected on Shaanxi North Road, and pick and choose, I am afraid that it will not take two years, and Shaanxi North Road..."

Speaking of this, Su Dongpo didn't go on, but his intention was very clear. If it was really replaced by someone who had different political views from Wang Wushan, he would go there and do the opposite.

Not to mention two years, one year can turn Shaanxi North Road into a mess.

Emperor Zhao Xu smacked his mouth, couldn't help shaking his head with a bitter smile. "Yes, the words of Su Qing's family really have something to say. The Shaanxi North Road and many decrees are all good policies that benefit the country and the people made by his king Wushan. destroyed by people."

"What was destroyed was not only the good government that benefited the country and the people, but also the nearly 200 million people of Song Dynasty on Shaanxi North Road."

"In the opinion of Su Qing's family, who do you think is the most suitable successor?" Emperor Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes slightly and asked Su Dongpo, an old driver.

"To be honest, the old minister really doesn't think there is a suitable candidate in the court." After Su Dongpo pondered for a long time, he couldn't help showing a helpless smile.

"It is not that there are no capable ministers and officials in the court, but your Majesty must also know very well that his king, Wu Shan, has long ago offended all the civil and military officials in the court. Even if he is not a life-and-death enemy, he will not How good is it..."

Emperor Zhao Xu opened his mouth and wanted to defend Wang Wushan, but found that Su Dongpo's words were absolutely true. He could only touch his nose and rolled his eyes helplessly.

"So, the range of candidates, alas, in fact, it would be most appropriate if one outstanding talent can be selected from among the officials on the North Shaanxi Road to take up this position." Su Dongpo stroked his long beard, and his eyes wandered reverently. Continue to speak.

Emperor Zhao Xu raised his brows, sat up straight, looked at the scheming Su Dongpo in front of him, and beckoned him to continue talking.

"The reason why the old minister said this is, firstly, those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black. At this moment, Wang Wushan is a young and talented man, but he is not alone. On the contrary, he gets along very well with many officials on Shaanxi North Road. And those officials also agree with Wang Wushan's actions."

"Secondly, they have followed Wang Wushan for a long time, and they are well aware of the pros and cons of his administration. In this way, even if they are Xiao Gui Cao Sui, it is better to change the order day and night."

"Thirdly, among the many officials on Shaanxi North Road, there are really many outstanding talents, whether it is the Gao Li who runs Yanzhou as rich as the south of the Yangtze River, or the Zong Ze, who will be able to become a prime minister in the future; or the conscientious, courageous, upright Gao Shize..."
