Are officials really "people walking tea and cooling" after retirement? Looking at Wang Anshi's retirement life is enviable

For powerful officials, the most painful thing is retirement. Because once he retires, it is like a canopy marshal, but a "plague pig", how can he still be angry? Therefore, whenever he retires, there is often a phenomenon of "people will die, but they can not cry". The same is true of Wang Anshi.

After being deposed, he "held hands and wept" with two party members. Unfortunately, those two people immediately stopped crying after learning that their official positions were safe, causing Wang Dacheng to sing a "one-man show" alone in the main hall, which added some comedic effects.

But Wang Anshi had cried early after all. Because in ancient society, it has always been "a day to become an official, a lifetime as an official", even the ancestors lying in the dead grave can inexplicably be "posthumously named the Seven Ancestors", let alone the living? Therefore, the privileges of officials are never endless.

During his idle life in Jinling, Wang Anshi suffered from the pain of Sizi (his only son died not long ago). His brother-in-law Wu Sheng wanted to comfort his brother-in-law and specially brought some local specialties from his hometown to Jinling. It may be that he is quiet by nature, and he did not enter the house to live, but lived in the incense hall of a Buddhist temple. Coincidentally, a few days later, it was just in time for Emperor Shenzong's birthday. As the main leader of the southern capital Jinling, Taishou Yejun led the government officials to the temple to perform incense as usual, "wishing the holy birthday from afar", so he sent someone to throw Wu Sheng out of the incense hall.

Wu Sheng, who was extremely angry, not only did not avoid it, but hid behind the screen and insulted the officials who came to the scene by name. Ye Jun, who is an old fritter in the officialdom, holds that he "should not be the head", as if Wu Sheng behind the screen is not cursing himself, but singing "Happy Birthday Song". But when two of his men saw the boss being so insulted by the poor relatives of the prime minister, they were all angry.

However, they did not dare to personally fight the "dead tiger" - who knows whether Wang Anshi's "tiger" was dead or not? Therefore, they threw this problem to the local county order, ordering him to strictly take Wu Sheng, who "posted randomly", and even if he was "cross-provincial", he would be arrested and arrested! When Xian Ling heard that the suspect was Wang Anshi's brother-in-law, he was so frightened that his neck almost retracted into his cavity, and in his heart, he greeted ye Jun's two ancestors 18 times. But the county magistrate was also afraid of the current management, so he had to send two soaps to go through the formalities.

Who knows, these two soaps who don't know a basket of big characters don't care whether Wang Anshi is a big minister or not, they go straight to Wang Anshi's house, take out the prestige of the tiger official, shout "arrest people", and make trouble until Wang Anshi himself comes forward to return sadly. When Ye Jun saw that things had gotten bigger, he immediately made a decision, first beat up the soaps, and then led his two hands down to apologize to Wang Anshi. Ye Jun's reason is very simple, just eight words - "the male soap is strange and lost in the restraints." Originally, how could the little soap li know you Wang Daxiang, the so-called "ignorant person is not guilty", and I hope you have a lot of Haihan. Wang Anshi was so angry that he didn't say a word, but his wife scolded away with a handful of snot and tears behind the screen: "Although my old man is retired, even the one who held his feet and sneaked under the door before also ran 7788, and no one dared to run to the door to arrest people." You don't take retired officials seriously! ”

Ye Jun's face was as frightened as earth, and in the panic, he had to grease the soles of his feet and slip away. He had thought that Wang Anshi was already a yellow flower of tomorrow, and his visit to the door to apologize for his sins had been enough to give Wang Anshi face. Unexpectedly, Emperor Shenzong of Song made an urgent call to depose Ye Jun and his two subordinates, and let Wang Anshi's cronies take over as the Taishou of Jinling; Wang Anshi's brother was appointed as the Tidian Jiangdong Prison, and even more outrageously, the Ti Punishment Office was also moved to Jinling. The emperor's meaning was very clear, to let Wang Anshi's cronies go to Wang Anshi as nannies and take care of his daily life; Wang Anshi's brother went to wang as a bodyguard to prevent anyone from enforcing the law against the former prime minister. With these two "protectors", Wang Anshi's retirement life became more and more elegant.
