Others traveled through the Song Dynasty, copied poems and made wine, and made a lot of money. However, Xue Chen made a mistake and became a pawn of Wang Anshi's reform. He was regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by the old party.
Sima Guang scolded him for "clever words and disrupting government", Su Shi ridiculed him for "gathering ministers", and the whole dynasty wanted to crush him to ashes.
But Xue Chen smiled slightly: Go ahead and scold him. When the Young Crops Law and the Elimination of Service Law take root, when the Song Dynasty's treasury is no longer empty and the frontier troops are no longer short of pay, you will know that today's "treacherous sycophants" are the real backbone of the Song Dynasty.
But he didn't expect that the end of the reform would be strife within the new party, the balance of the emperor's swing, and the bloody reckoning when the old party counterattacked.
The building is about to collapse. Can a "powerful prime minister" withstand it?
