Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

Fan Zheng takes drastic measures to become a forensic expert! And Zhao Xu did not stop here, and successively restored the official positions of many new parties, and many new faces soon appeared in the DPRK.

"I'll see you at the official's house!"

In the imperial garden, after Fan Zheng and Zhao Xu finished their usual workout, two unfamiliar ministers came towards them.

"Fan Aiqing, I would like to introduce you to two adults. This is Mr. Zhang Dunzhang and Mr. Zeng Buzeng!" Zhao Xu said loudly.

Fan Zheng couldn't help but be shocked. Zhang Dunzengbu was a well-known member of the New Party. He had heard of his name for a long time but had never met him.

"Fan Zheng has met you two adults!" Fan Zheng said with cupped hands.

Zhang Dun looked at Fan Zheng carefully and said: "I am far away in Lingnan. I also heard that Fan Xianggong had the ambition to reform. When I first arrived in Kaifeng City, I also went to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital to seek medical treatment. Sure enough, the medicine cured my illness and swept away my old habits in Lingnan. disease."

Zeng Bu also nodded and said: "The three-year agreement between the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and the Tai Hospital, and the policy of recruiting Ling Doctors increased the number of doctors to one million. Doctors were spread all over the Song Dynasty. The people benefited, and the doctors flourished. Both of them benefited immensely. In fact, It is similar to Wang Xianggong’s idea that the people should not be given any wealth but the country should use it as much as they can.”

Fan Zheng hurriedly said modestly: "You two adults are very grateful. The medical family is the only one among a hundred that can be self-sufficient. It has a very deep foundation, but it is just a mess. It has been stuck until now. Fan is just following the trend. That’s all! How dare you compare with Mr. Wang?”

Zhang Dun nodded and said: "Yes! If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. This is true for doctors, and it is also true for the Song Dynasty. I believe that when the Song Dynasty resumes reforms, it will definitely be reborn like doctors.

"I sincerely request the officials to restart the reform and revitalize the Song Dynasty." Zeng Bu also followed the memorial.

The two new party ministers had just taken office and were eager to restart the reform.

Zhao Xuning nodded and said: "The purpose of introducing Imperial Physician Fan to the two adults today is for the purpose of reform. As we all know, the biggest problem in the Song Dynasty is redundant soldiers and officials! I wonder if the three of you have a good method."

Zhang Dun and Zeng Bu frowned when they heard this, and looked at each other calmly. They were veterans of Xining's reform, and Zhao Xu consciously regarded Fan Zheng as equal to them, which shows the status of Fan Zheng in Zhao Xu's heart.

Zeng Bu took the lead and said: "Fan Xianggong was also alert to the problem of redundant troops at that time. However, the Qingli New Deal was abandoned halfway and was not effective. Fortunately, the Xining Reform and the Baojia Law were quite effective. The rural households were organized and ten families were one guarantee. If every household had more than two sons, one of them would be chosen as a guarantee. During the off-farm period, soldiers would be trained intensively and deployed in the countryside. In this way, military expenses could be saved and elite soldiers could be trained for the Song Dynasty.

Zhang Dun continued: "Redundant officials also have strategies to rectify the imperial examination, while redundant officials have strategies for young crops and exemption from service."

Zhao Xu pondered for a moment, but did not give the order immediately. Instead, he asked Fan Zheng standing aside, "What does Dr. Fan think?"

Fan Zheng shook his head when he heard this and said: "We in the Song Dynasty already have 800,000 forbidden troops and 400,000 soldiers, with a total strength of 1.2 million. Even such a heavy army cannot defeat Liaoxia. How do we expect some farmers to train for two days to strengthen their troops during their leisure time? If that's the case? , then why not follow the example of Liao and Xia and all the people are soldiers, wouldn't it be like sweeping the Xixia and Liao kingdoms?"

"All the people are soldiers?"

Zhang Dun and Zeng Bu were stunned, not expecting Fan Zheng to be so radical.

Zhao Xu frowned when he heard this, and made sure that Law A did have the shadow of all the people being soldiers. If Liao Xia can be defeated with more soldiers, wouldn't it be more convenient for all the people to be soldiers.

Fan Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "If the officials pin their hopes of defeating Liaoxia on the Baojia Law, I am afraid they will be disappointed, because the Baojia Law does not prevent Xixia, but prevents the people of the Song Dynasty from rebelling."

"what!"

Zhao Xu was suddenly startled and looked at Fan Zheng in disbelief, then turned to look at Zhang Dun and Zeng Bu.

Zhang Dun and Zeng Bu were both silent for a moment, because what Fan Zheng said was true. The Baojia Law could indeed provide excellent soldiers for the Song Dynasty's military, and more importantly, it could prevent civilian rebellion.

"Has the civil society become so corrupt?" Zhao Xu took a breath and asked.

"That's why the Song Dynasty urgently needed reforms to strengthen itself. The young crops law and the exemption law in the new law are all to relieve the burden on the people." Zhang Dun said solemnly.

"The intention of the Green Seed Law is very good, and the exemption law is also very good. However, its only loophole is that it involves money. Everything in the world is for profit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. As long as money is involved, someone will eventually take advantage of the loophole. , will always be used by people with intentions until it turns into a policy that harms the people. This was the case during the Xining period, and it is the same now?" Fan Zheng said sharply.

Zeng Bu and Zhang Dun were silent. After all, they had personally experienced the Xining Reform and knew that what Fan Zheng said was true.

"If you want to defeat Liaoxia, you must have money and food support. For the great Song Dynasty, there is only...!" Zhang Dun said through gritted teeth.

"We have to suffer the people first. Why? Losing the support of the people is the root cause of the failure of the new law. Hasn't the new party learned its lesson?" Fan Zheng sneered.

"For the sake of the Song Dynasty, we are willing to bear the infamy!" Zhang Dun said happily without fear.

"Then, like the late emperor, the people will perish and the government will cease." Fan Zheng asked rhetorically.

Zhao Xu immediately clenched his fists, and a flash of pain flashed in his eyes.

"Since Fan Taicheng is opposed to this method, I don't know if there is any good solution?" Zeng Bu asked angrily.

Fan Zheng said proudly: "Fan has two strategies that are enough for the Song Dynasty to improve its finances."

"Two strategies?" Zeng Bu and Zhang Dun frowned and stared at Fan Zheng displeased. The Young Crops Law and the Recruitment Law were good laws that the New Party came up with after summarizing the tax policies of past dynasties and gathering the wisdom of everyone. However, Fan Zheng unexpectedly He opened his mouth and came up with two strategies.

Zhao Xu's heart moved when he heard this. He must know that although Fan Zheng's prescription is evil, it has never let him down.

Fan Zheng looked around the three of them and said proudly: "Wei Chen's first policy is a whipping method! First of all, clear the land and attack the hidden land again."

"Clear my father-in-law's land!"

Zhang Dun couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, this is just a cliché! Everyone knows that there were hidden fields in the Song Dynasty. During the Xining Reform, Wang Anshi also introduced the Fangtian Equalization Tax Law, but the result was strong opposition, which also led to them being retaliated by the old party.

"Second, we will merge taxes and levies, combine land taxes and various forms of corvee, unify taxes and levies, and restrict corrupt officials from harassing the people." Fan Zheng said again.

"A harsh government is as fierce as a tiger. It merges taxes and unifies taxes and levies. This method is of great benefit and will definitely greatly reduce levies and miscellaneous taxes." Zeng Bu's eyes lit up.

"Third, collect money per acre, close officials and reduce corruption," Fan Zheng said at the end.

"What a whipping method!" Zhang Dun exclaimed. He was a master of political reform. He could see the horror of the whipping method at a glance. This whipping method, one after another, using three strategies at the same time, would definitely be able to change the Song Dynasty. financial.

At that moment, Zhang Dun looked at Fan Zheng with no more contempt than before.

Zhao Xu also looked at Fan Zheng in surprise. It was widely rumored that Fan Zheng was going to correct his evil ways and would never prescribe evil prescriptions again. He didn't expect it to be true. This was the first time he saw Fan Zheng take corrective measures, and he was still so amazing.

"This strategy is a bad one. It will collapse within twenty years at most, but it is enough for the Song Dynasty to defeat the Liao Xia." Fan Zheng sighed.

"Ugh! What a bad idea!"

The three of them suddenly felt like they were being pinched by a duck. What they saw was a good solution that they were so excited about, but in Fan Zheng's eyes, it turned out to be a bad idea.

Zhao Xu's expression was strange. Fan Zheng's prescription was indeed correct, but his behavior was still extremely evil.
