The life of Wen Yanbo

Wen Yanbo, word Kuanfu, a famous politician in the Northern Song Dynasty, was a Jiexiu. Known as one of the three sages of Jiexiu. The four dynasties of Renzong, Yingzong, Zongshen and Zhezong lasted for 50 years, which is unique in the history of China and is called the first appearance of the Song Dynasty by historians.

When I was a teenager, Zhang Sheng (Tang Dynasty) and I studied the Confucian classics and Gao Ruona (Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty) in The History of Yingchang (Huo Zhao).

Song Huizong and Cai Jing regarded Wen Yanbo, Lv Gongzhu and Sima Guang as "Yuan You party member". It was not until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty that Wen Yanbo was recovered and became a loyal minister.

1, handle things decisively

Wen Yanbo is calm and calm, and he is also decisive in handling things, thinking more about the country. At that time, there was a military operation on the western border, and the officers chickened out, hoping that the enemy would not advance, and often retreated first. Wen Yanbo played the imperial cloud; "This is just as well in peacetime. What will Song Renzong do if it encounters a wartime? Usually, the power is not specialized, and the art of war is not rigorous. " Song Renzong took his advice. Wen Yanbo once discussed with Pang Ji, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, to eliminate redundant soldiers and reduce redundant expenses. Many ministers in the DPRK believe that this method is not easy to work, because the imperial court used to be afraid of riots by victims in famine years, so it recruited troops on a large scale in the disaster areas to reduce its potential. If redundant staff are cut, I am afraid that those who are cut will become thieves and endanger social stability. Renzong also hesitated, and Wen Yanbo said decisively: "One of the reasons is that there are too many soldiers. If something happens, I am willing to die for my country! " The court adopted Wen Yanbo's opinion, as she said, nothing happened.

Wen Yanbo took the embassy directly as the deputy envoy of Hedong. Linzhou, under the jurisdiction of Hedong Road, is adjacent to Xixia, and the traffic road is circuitous, making it difficult to walk. Outside the Yincheng River, there is an ancient road built in the Tang Dynasty, which has been abandoned for a long time. When Wen Yanbo took office, he personally took people to repair the old road, which made the journey of transportation reimbursement close and easy. He accumulated a lot of food and grass in our city. Yuan Hao of Xixia led the army to attack, and when he saw that he was prepared, he withdrew.

In the seventh year of Li Qing (1047), Wen Yanbo became the deputy envoy of Shu Mi. In November, the king of Zhou Bei revolted, and in the first month of August, the court appointed Wen Yanbo to declare and appease Hebei to quell the king's uprising. On the one hand, Wen Yanbo let the loyalists storm the north city, on the other hand, he dug tunnels in the south city and went straight to the city. In the first month of the leap, loyalists entered the city, Wang was arrested and the uprising was suppressed. Wen Yanbo was promoted to a bachelor's degree in Jixian College by virtue of his achievements.

In August of the first year of you (1049), Wen Yanbo was a university student in Zhaowen Museum. In October of three years, Wen Yanbo was dismissed for suggesting to send Shu Brocade. In June of 2002 (1055), Wen Yanbo was re-appointed as a college student in Pingzhang Academy and Zhaowen Pavilion. Later, he went to Henan, Daming and Taiyuan to be local officials. During the reign of Emperor Yingzong, Wen Yanbo served as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty. After Zongshen ascended the throne, Wang Anshi began to reform. Wen Yanbo and Wang Anshi hold different views and both talk about the disadvantages of Shiyi and young crops. Because of his opposition to political reform, Wen Yanbo was changed to a local official and later became a master. In April of the first year of Yuan You (1086), Wen Yanbo was recommended by Sima Guang as an important official in Pingzhang. In five years, the official was reinstated in the name of protecting the national army and saving Shannan West Road. In the fourth year of Shaosheng (1097), Zhang Chun was in charge, and Yun Wenyanbo and Sima Guang opposed Wang Anshi's political reform and were reduced to Prince Taibao.

For example, Er Quan said, "A long sword plays with frost, and Bai Hong is half full of autumn clouds. Washing ears is more important, and the world will look down on a feather. " Another example is "Drum Tower in Yuci County": "I don't know him when I go to the pagoda. Are you lucky now? Being, the female head came out early to let go.
