Gaia Year 2 December on the 2nd, Heavenly Capital City. 盖亚二年十二月二日,天京城。 This is Ouyang Shuo assumes Heavenly Capital City the third day, the atmosphere in city changed. 这是欧阳朔坐镇天京城的第三天,城内的气氛已是为之一变。 The demolition scene in Heavenly King palace, bustling. The precious lumber that opens, piles up above the square before Heavenly King palace. 天王宫的拆除现场,一片热火朝天。拆出来的珍贵木料,在天王宫前的广场之上堆积如山。 In the square, presented people of the groups of inspecting goods gradually. 广场上,已是渐次出现一批批验货之人。 Even the distant place, Xunzhou County and well-born scholar Merchant of Zhen'an County boundary, acts as soon as one gets the news, catches up toward Heavenly Capital City continuously, participates this time auction grand feast. 甚至更远处,浔州郡和镇安郡地界的士绅商人,都闻风而动,络绎不绝地往天京城赶,来参加这一次的拍卖盛宴。 Ouyang Shuo must hit the news, immediately ordered Business Division, in dozens car(riage) belongings that from plundering, chose some Hong Xiuquan the thing of serving as a tool, participated in the auction. 欧阳朔得打消息,立即责令商业司,自搜刮出来的几十车财物中,挑选一些洪秀全的御用之物,参与拍卖。 „Remember, selects specially private these, not valuable thing auction.” “记住,专门挑那些私密的,又不值钱的物件拍卖。” Ouyang Shuo urged the Business Division government official like this. 欧阳朔这样叮嘱商业司的官吏。 „!” “诺！” „, A price elevation point, the propaganda is warm.” “还有,价格标高一点,宣传再热烈一点。” „!” “诺！” Business Division government official accepts cautiously, while wipes the cold sweat secretly, in Ruling Marquis to hearsay „astute” and „Meticulous Planning, Careful Accounting”, had a more direct-viewing understanding. 商业司官吏一边小心翼翼地应承下来,一边偷偷地抹冷汗,对传闻中君侯的“精明”和“精打细算”,有了更加直观的认识。 Naturally, in the Executive of Finance Cui Yingyou mouth, directly is Black Heart and being greedy for money. He is only the Business Division basic unit government official, does not dare to look like Executive Cui to be like that aggressive. 当然,在财政署长崔映柚口中,直接就是黑心和贪财。他不过只是商业司的基层官吏,可不敢像崔署长那般霸气。 Another side, in west Army Camp, similarly is a busy picture. 100,000 Taiping Army, is making the best use of the time to pack the travel bag, tomorrow they must set off the traveling schedule, the place that assigns accepts to reorganize. 另一边,城西的军营中,同样是一番忙碌的景象。十万太平军,正在抓紧时间收拾行囊,明日他们就要踏上行程,去指定的地点接受整编。 In some undercurrents as for armed forces, after Ouyang Shuo ejects the bait, is an uneventfulness. 至于军中的一些暗流,在欧阳朔抛出诱饵之后,已是一阵风平浪静。 The only accident, was last night, place armed forces defended High-General Lin Qirong, because will soon take a long journey, drank in Restaurant unexpectedly is dead drunk, later must alone go to Brothel to seek pleasure. 唯一的意外,就是昨天夜里,地方部队守备将领林启荣,因为即将远行,竟然在酒楼喝得烂醉如泥,之后还要独自去青楼寻欢。 Because of getting drunk, Lin Qirong falls into the creek in city „carelessly”, accidently lost life. Until next morning, cleans the street sweeper of street, discovered that floats the Lin Qirong corpse on water surface, immediately reported the officer. 因为喝醉,林启荣“不慎”掉入城中的小河,不幸身亡。直到第二天早上,打扫街道的清道夫,才发现浮在水面上的林启荣尸体,立即报了官。 After the Yamen medical examiner appraisal, Lin Qirong belongs to be drowned to perish, rules out the possibility of homicide. 经衙门仵作鉴定,林启荣属于溺水而亡,排除他杀的可能。 This matter, lets it go. 这件事,也就不了了之。 Zeng Tianyang obtains the news, although thought that matter leaves the fishy, is actually not able to verify. After all Lin Qirong truly is addicted to alcohol, according to his subordinate, last night they truly were together are drinking. 曾天养得到消息,虽然觉得事出蹊跷,却又无从查证。毕竟林启荣确实嗜酒,据他的部下供述,昨天夜里他们确实是在一起喝酒。 After breaking up, lower part Lin Qirong will lose, alone will leave, later will obtain the news that he will be drowned to perish. 散场之后,林启荣丢下部将,独自离开,之后就得到他溺水而亡的消息。 Finally, Zeng Tianyang also can only belong to the coincidence this matter. 最终,曾天养也只能将此事归于巧合。 „Really is absurd!” “真是荒唐！” Zeng Tianyang to Lin Qirong does not make every effort to succeed, feels not indignation. 曾天养对林启荣的不争气,感到十分的不忿。 Sees with own eyes the important matter time, actually for no reason lost an ally, how not to make Zeng Tianyang indignant. Those who make Zeng Tianyang indignant is, last night he probed the Shi Zhenji rumor once more. 眼见大事可期,却无故损失了一位盟友,如何不让曾天养气愤。更让曾天养气愤的是,昨天夜里他再次去试探石镇吉的口风。 This time, Shi Zhenji has rejected unexpectedly straightforwardly, lets Zeng Tianyang stunned. 这一次,石镇吉竟然直截了当地拒绝了,让曾天养错愕不已。 „Heartless and cruel disciple!” “狼心狗肺之徒！” It looks like in Zeng Tianyang, the rejection of Shi Zhenji, is to the betrayal of Heavenly King. 在曾天养看来,石镇吉的拒绝,就是对天王的背叛。 Zeng Tianyang cursed Shi Zhenji, while to dreading of that Ruling Marquis, was deeply one layer. Merely one simple meeting, changed the Shi Zhenji standpoint, how not to make the Zeng Tianyang heart be startled. 曾天养一边诅咒石镇吉,一边对那位君侯的忌惮,也是深了一层。仅仅一场简单的会面,就改变了石镇吉的立场,如何不让曾天养心惊。 „Was a pity that I did not have the escape route, this does not live the graciousness of defeated/carrying Heavenly King.” “可惜,我已是没有退路,此生绝不负天王之恩。” Zeng Tianyang, to air deep sigh, facial expression unexpectedly extraordinarily somewhat lonely. 曾天养独自一人,对着空气长叹,神情竟然出奇地有些寂寥。 Perhaps, each „unprincipled person”, will have an unknown past. Actually changes an angle, looks like in Hong Xiuquan, is Zeng Tianyang not just the most loyalty reliable official? 也许,每一位“坏人”,都会有一段不为人知的过去吧。其实换个角度,在洪秀全看来,曾天养可不正是最忠诚可靠的臣子吗？ The standpoint is often different, appraisal to person, will go to two extremes. 往往立场不同,对人的评价,也会走向两个极端。 ********** ********** Lin Fengxiang mansion, Ouyang Shuo study room. 林凤祥府邸,欧阳朔书房。 After processes the Heavenly King palace and Taiping Army two big thorny issue one after another, Ouyang Shuo has the time finally, inspects and receives Heavenly Capital City audiences Civil Official. 在接连处理好天王宫和太平军两大棘手的问题之后,欧阳朔终于有时间,来考察、接见天京城的一众文官。 But most receives Ouyang Shuo to think highly, naturally was Su Zhe. 而其中最受欧阳朔器重的,自然就是苏辙了。 Compares the boldness of his brother Su Shi, Su Zhe is calm reserved and calm, if element. This disposition, lets Su Zhe above the government, walks compared with his brother Su Shi. 相比其兄苏轼的豪放,苏辙则是沉稳内敛和镇定若素。正是这一性格,让苏辙在官场之上,比其兄苏轼走得更远。 Naturally, in the bone, two brothers also has something in common. 当然,在骨子里,兄弟二人又有共同之处。 One generation of big literary giant Su Shi, once like this appraised this younger brother. 一代大文豪苏轼,曾经这样评价他这位弟弟。 „Sub- by it writing Shisheng servant, but the common custom does not know that is thinks to be inferior. That person depth, is not willing the person to know it. If the article manner, therefore lives simply vastly, one sang the sounds of three sighing, but the air/Qi of his Xiujie did not have finally.” “子由之文实胜仆,而世俗不知,乃以为不如。其人深,不愿人知之。其文如其为人,故汪洋澹泊,有一唱三叹之声,而其秀杰之气终不可没。” From this, obviously the low key of Su Zhe is reserved. 由此,可见苏辙之低调内敛。 The Su Zhe entire life knowledge was affected by his father and elder brothers deeply, is famous for the prose, especially excels at the political comment and historical treatise. This specialty, held the post of Prime Minister at that time, wants political reforms Wang Anshi to pick wholeheartedly, calls in three division rule departments. 苏辙生平学问深受其父兄影响,以散文著称,尤其擅长政论和史论。正是这一特长,被当时担任宰相,一心想要变法的王安石相中,调入三司条例司。 To «Young Sprouts Law» that and other transformations Wang Anshi carries out, Su Zhe has the extremely deep insight. What a pity, the theory of Su Zhe, contradicted with the ambitious Wang Anshi thought at that time, moved toward the political reforms opposite. 对王安石推行的《青苗法》等变革,苏辙都有极深的见地。可惜,苏辙之论,跟彼时雄心勃勃的王安石思想相悖,走向了变法的对立面。 Soon, Su Zhe because of being different from the Wang Anshi opinion, but was censured Capital, the major road is rough. 不久,苏辙就因跟王安石意见相左,而被贬出京,官路坎坷。 Until Shenzong of Song passed away, Emperor Zhezong of Song takes a seat, proclaims Jin/benevolent Empress Dowager to attend to state affairs, the intention abolishes the Wang Anshi time the innovation, Su Zhe again has entrusted with heavy responsibility, finally officer to Prime Minister. 直到宋神宗驾崩,宋哲宗即位,宣仁太后垂帘听政,意图废除王安石时期的新法,苏辙才再次得到重用,最终一路官至宰相。 After that Emperor Zhezong of Song personally guides the government into a new era, the innovation sends to be in power. Accordingly, is the support to abolish innovation school of Su Zhe, naturally links is relegated, hence, does not have the opportunity of returning to office after the period of mourning again. 其后,宋哲宗亲政,新法派重新得势。相应的,属于支持废除新法一派的苏辙,自然是连遭贬谪,至此之后,再无起复之机。 By Su Zhe lifetime government experience, may slightly sneak a peek , the frequency of Northern Song time factional strife. 由苏辙一生的官场经历,也可略一窥见,北宋时期党争之频繁。 Due to the reason of Song Generation bureaucrat system, the status of Song Generation writer is high, is the Ancient China intellectual Politics Livelihood Yellow-Gold time, they actively participate in Politics Livelihood. 由于宋代官僚制度的原因,宋代文人的地位较高,是中国古代知识分子政治生活的黄金时期,他们积极参与政治生活。 But the Northern Song Politics characteristics, take the deterioration to accumulate poor, factional strife frequently for the main feature. 而北宋的政治特点,则以积弱积贫、党争频繁为主要特点。 Since Fan Zhongyan, the Northern Song renowned writer was almost involved in the factional strife vortex without exception, the Politics disturbance has affected and determined their destiny, deeply affected their literary creation. 自从范仲淹以后,北宋的著名文人几乎无一例外地被卷入党争漩涡,政治风波影响、决定了他们的命运,也深深地影响了他们的文学创作。 Su Shi and Su Zhe two brothers, naturally are unable to stay out. 苏轼和苏辙兄弟二人,自然无法置身事外。 Perhaps, is deeply by poisoning of factional strife, after coming to Wilderness, Su Zhe regarding the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom factional strife, keeps at a respectful distance. Between other Heavenly King and factions, maintains the neutrality, handles the government affairs low-key. 也许,正是深受党争之毒害,现身荒野之后,苏辙对于太平天国的党争,是敬而远之。在天王和其他各派之间,一直保持中立,低调地处理政务。 Even if when Shi Dakai and Yang Xiuqing gamble, Su Zhe takes the head of Heavenly Kingdom Civil Official, remains silent. Ouyang Shuo is in charge of Heavenly Capital City, Su Zhe simply stays at home. 即便是在石达开和杨秀清博弈期间,苏辙作为天国文官之首,也是一直保持沉默。欧阳朔入主天京城,苏辙则干脆就是闭门不出。 Until that morning, Su Zhe obtained Ouyang Shuo's to summon personally. 直到这一天上午,苏辙得到欧阳朔的亲自召见。 Before this, when selecting Xunzhou County and other County Overseer, Ouyang Shuo has not considered Su Zhe. Pours is not Ouyang Shuo has the prejudice to Su Zhe, or questions the Su Zhe ability. 此前,在圈定浔州郡等三位郡守之时,欧阳朔并未考虑苏辙。倒并不是欧阳朔对苏辙有偏见,或者说是质疑苏辙的能力。 In fact, occupies the energy of Song Dynasty Prime Minister by the Su Zhe officer, governs place of county, is not improper. Moreover the Northern Song time, the bureaucrat system is extremely perfect, to government official informed and experienced. 实际上,以苏辙官居宋朝宰相之能,治理一郡之地,并无不妥。而且北宋时期,官僚制度已是极为完善,对官吏的历练更甚。 The Northern Song time, the Yamen business is numerous and diverse, the ability requirement to government official is also higher. Therefore, compared with the it Bao Shuya and other Spring and Autumn Warring States time of Civil Minister, in the ability, the Su Zhe regulations has no time to let. 北宋时期,衙门事务繁杂,对官吏的能力要求也更高。因此,比之鲍叔牙等春秋战国时期的文臣,在能力上,苏辙实则不遑多让。 In fact, in knowing Su Zhe in Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for officer, Ouyang Shuo thinks that a position, most suits Su Zhe, that is the Science, Education, Culture, and Health Bureau Executive duty of Administration Bureau subordinate. 实际上,早在得知苏辙在太平天国为官之时,欧阳朔就想到一个职位,最是适合于苏辙,那便是行政署下属的科教文卫署署长一职。 As Fan Zhongyan is transferred to Wuzhou County County Overseer, Xiao He becomes Executive of Administration. Before this holds a concurrent post of Science, Education, Culture, and Health Bureau that by Xiao He, has been giving dual attention by Xiao He. 随着范仲淹调任梧州郡郡守,萧何就任行政署长。此前由萧何兼任的科教文卫署,一直还是由萧何兼顾着。 In the middle of Four Big Bureaus, Administration Bureau the government affairs were arduous. 四大署当中,行政署本就政务繁重。 To Xiao He, concurs multi- duties, is really extremely inconvenient. Xiao He through the official letter, has proposed Ruling Marquis, soon will draw up new Executive of Science, Education, Culture, and Health. 对萧何而言,身兼多职,实在是极为不便。萧何一直通过公函,提请君侯,早日拟定新一任的科教文卫署长。 issue is, Science, Education, Culture, and Health Bureau, the regulations will relate to Ouyang Shuo next year the foundation of territory transformation, the responsibility will be significant, how could Ouyang Shuo in a hurry will draw up his Main Official candidate. 问题是,科教文卫署,实则关系到欧阳朔来年领地变革之根基,干系重大,欧阳朔又岂能匆匆拟定其主官人选。 But concurs the writer and Su Zhe of Prime Minister two big duties , and solid educational foundation received from family elders, the manner is also honest, entered the Ouyang Shuo's view naturally, is the Executive of Science, Education, Culture, and Health appropriate candidate. 而身兼文学家和宰相两大职务的苏辙,兼且家学渊源,为人又正派,自然而然地就进入了欧阳朔的视野,是科教文卫署长的合适人选。 In addition, what Science, Education, Culture, and Health Bureau service is the public Foundation enterprise, misses with the factional strife, is urgently needed the insightful person to lead, with the Su Zhe mental disposition, really extremely agrees with. 除此之外,科教文卫署服务的是公共基础事业,跟党争无缘,偏偏又急需有见地之人主导,跟苏辙的秉性,实在是极为契合。 So, Ouyang Shuo has confidence to convince Su Zhe to become an official once more. 正是如此,欧阳朔才有信心说服苏辙再次出山。 Ouyang Shuo choice in study room, but is not the hall, summoned Su Zhe, indicates the meaning of being intimate with. 欧阳朔选择在书房,而不是正堂,召见苏辙,也是表示亲近之意。 Their meeting, are it may be said that calm. 两人的见面,可谓波澜不惊。 To Su Zhe, the name of Ruling Marquis, regulations not too big concept. Mountains and Seas City can attract Su Zhe, on the contrary because of existence of Fan Zhongyan. 对苏辙而言,君侯之名,实则没有太大的概念。山海城能吸引到苏辙的,反倒是因为范仲淹的存在。 In Northern Song, in the government, is in the literary arena, Duke Fan has its special status. Ruling Marquis can obtain giving loyalty to of Duke Fan, to Su Zhe, is in itself an enormous approval. 在北宋,无论是在官场,还是在文坛,范公都有其特殊的地位。君侯能够得到范公的效忠,对苏辙而言,本身就是一种极大的认可。 Especially is listening to introduction of Ruling Marquis to Science, Education, Culture, and Health Bureau, the mood that Su Zhe just returned to normal, once again had the mighty waves. As long as comes the Northern Song writer, does not have eager not to join in the government. 尤其是在听完君侯对科教文卫署的介绍,苏辙刚刚平复的心情,又一次起了波澜。但凡出身北宋的文人,就没有不热心投身官场的。 To them, is the officer, does not enjoy the riches and honors, but for the people potency, an show studies. 对他们而言,为官,不是享受荣华富贵,而是为民效力,一展所学。 Just like Duke Fan said in «Memorial to Yueyang Tower»: Under Xiantian (Innate) sorrow worries, under Houtian (Post-natal|day after) is happy and happy. 正如范公在《岳阳楼记》中所言:先天下之忧而忧,后天下之乐而乐。 This word, is the Northern Song writer, cares about the national destiny, pays attention to the common people hardship, is willing to worry the minute to worry for the future and destiny of country that for the most vivid portrayal that the world common people strive. 此一言,正是北宋文人,关心国家命运,关注百姓疾苦,愿意为国家的前途、命运担忧分愁,为天下万民出力的最为生动的写照。 Su Zhe, naturally is no exception. 苏辙,自然也不例外。 Can wield Science, Education, Culture, and Health Bureau, to Su Zhe, is not just one time for the opportunity that the people work. 能够执掌科教文卫署,对苏辙而言,可不正是一次为民效力的机会。 „small official pays a visit Ruling Marquis!” “微臣拜见君侯！” In this moment, Su Zhe officially gives loyalty to Ouyang Shuo. 就在这一刻,苏辙正式效忠于欧阳朔。 【Name】: Su Zhe( King Grade) 【姓名】:苏辙（王级） 【Conferred Title】: One of Tang-Song eight great families 【封号】:唐宋八大家之一 【Dynasty】: Northern Song 【朝代】:北宋 【Status】: Mountains and Seas City government official 【身份】:山海城官吏 【Profession】: Civil Official 【职业】:文官 【loyalty】: 70 points 【忠诚】:70点 【Commander】: 35 【Military Power】: 25 【Intelligence】: 75 【Politics】: 80 【统帅】:35【武力】:25【智力】:75【政治】:80 【specialty】: Writing to Determine( promotes territory administrative efficiency 15% , to promote the territory Culture index 5%, steps up the territory honest level 15%) 【特长】:文定（提升领地行政效率15%,提升领地文化指数5%,提升领地廉洁水平15%） 【Appraisal】: Su Zhe, character by, the Northern Song writer and Prime Minister.
