In the main hall, Tang Jian spoke so passionately that all the courtiers and bodyguards around him were eclipsed.
Some of the ministers below were shocked, some were angry, but most of them were gloating. They exchanged glances with each other, showed a playful smile, and looked at Wang Anshi who was angrily scolded by Tang Jian.
"Anshi specializes in misfortune and good fortune. He and Zeng Bu and others are in charge of power. They are shocked at home and abroad. They use pro-party and flattery villains. The world only knows the authority of King Anshi, but does not know that your majesty is there. Your majesty declares to Anshi. What I said is false. ? Really?"
Every time Tang Jian finished impeaching Wang Anshi, he would add this sentence. His Majesty asked Wang Anshi whether what he said was false or true?
Tang Jian asked so many questions in the palace, but Wang Anshi didn't say a word.
But Tang Jian was unwilling and continued to make passionate speeches to denounce Wang Anshi.
"The new law is harsh and harsh, and the world is in poverty and is about to be destroyed. Today's ministers include Han Qi on the outside, Wen Yanbo, Feng Jing and others on the inside. They know this clearly, but Wang Anshi dare not say anything. Your Majesty lives in the ninth level and has no way of knowing. Wang Gui prepares for the government and is no more than a slave..."
Having said this, Tang Jian looked at Wang Gui while reading. Wang Gui was so ashamed that he bowed his head and retreated.
"Your Majesty has issued an order to Anshi. Is what he said false? Is it true?" Tang Jian rebuked Wang Gui, then pointed at Wang Anshi and repeated this sentence angrily.
Wang Anshi held his neck and refused to answer.
The official couldn't help but said: "Please stop here!"
However, Tang Jian refused to continue reading: "Your Majesty, I haven't finished my discussion yet. Yuan Jiang and Xue Xiangdian are leading the government. An Shiyi is bossing around. There are no foreign slaves. Taiwan official Zhang Shangying and others are impeached. There is no mention of Anshi's party. This is An Shiyi." Stone eagle dogs are not His Majesty’s eyes and ears!”
Zhang Shangying, who lowered his head in the audience, was very embarrassed when he heard that Tang Jian had even impeached himself. Zhang Shangying originally went to the palace today with the intention of impeaching Zhang Yue for making a name for herself, but she didn't expect that she would be impeached by Tang Jian and become Wang Anshi's minion.
Zhang Shangying pinched his sleeve and sighed.
But I heard Tang Jian say again: "If Wang Anshi appoints people who go against his will, he will not call them back for a long time. Although those who agree with him are unworthy and virtuous..."
Here Tang Jian listed the names of Fu Bi, Lu Gongzhu and several others, and also mentioned Li Ping.
Then Tang Jian said: "What's more, the sage is uneasy about his position. Sima Guang resigned as deputy privy envoy, Han Jiang resigned as prime minister, and Zhang Yuejiu resigned as Hanlin bachelor, all because of his obstruction in the court..."
Hearing Tang Jian's words, Zhang Shangying's face turned earthy.
Wang Anshi didn't say anything, but the official's face condensed after hearing this, and he looked at Wang Anshi aside.
"Your Majesty issued an edict to Anshi. Is what I said false? Is it true?"
Tang Jian continuously questioned Wang Anshi about more than 60 major crimes, but the other party did not answer a word. Tang Jian finally pointed to the throne where the emperor was sitting and said: "An Shi's treachery is comparable to that of Lu Qi and Lin Fu. If your majesty does not listen to my words, you will not be able to stay in this position for a long time!"

This sentence was extremely bold and rude, but not a single official in the entire palace dared to come forward to reprimand him. The officials were also choked by Tang Yan and could not utter a word.
Tang Jian was extremely majestic today. When he looked at the noble people in the palace, he felt that they were all just chickens and dogs, and they were vulnerable to a single blow.
After Tang Jian finished speaking, he bowed to the official family and then left.
Tang Jian walked and stopped in front of Deng Wan. Deng Wan looked pale on the spot, raised his hands and pushed outward.
But Tang Jian bowed his head to Deng Wan and said, "I have been recommended by the public, and I dare not betray my virtue!"
Deng Wan is now the censor Zhongcheng. It was Wang Anshi who instructed Deng Wan to recommend Tang Jian as the censor. Tang Jian had just scolded the royal gang, but he did not mention Deng Wan, which shows that he was 'showing mercy'.
But when Deng Wan saw Tang Jian apologizing to him, he immediately wanted to die.
After Tang Jian left, an official who usually had some disagreements with Deng Wan said deliberately: "Ah, so it turns out that the public knew about what happened today? No, no."
Deng Wan immediately defended himself, but after a few words, his descriptions became darker and darker, and in the end he could only stop.
After Tang Jian left, the officials present couldn't help but think to themselves, if Wang Anshi was really a traitor, then Tang Jian's rebuke today was really heart-wrenching.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Tang Jiang was really just fighting for the sake of fighting today. He only wanted to feel good about himself and relied on the imperial court not to kill the officials who spoke out.
It took a while for the officials to react and ask: "How dare this Tang Jian be so arrogant?"
Wen Yanbo on the side said: "This kid is crazy and is under the orders of villains. It's not surprising."
The official asked further: "Who ordered it?"
Wen Yanbo said: "I don't know."
And Wang Anshi has already said: "Your Majesty, I have been in power for a long time and have been in power for a long time. I have received no subsidies from the government. As many people have said, I would like to ask your Majesty to allow me to vacate the throne."
The officials thought that Wang Anshi was so upright, how could he look like Lu Qi or Li Linfu.
When Wang Anshi resigned from the post before, officials felt that he was a bit pretentious. But being insulted in person by a junior minister of Tang Dynasty made the officials feel aggrieved for him in their hearts. He immediately said in front of all the officials: "I can't tell the difference between villains, so you don't have to worry about it."
After a pause, the official continued: "You have no desires and demands, and you only care about people's livelihood, so I make you the prime minister. This Tang Jian is a villain, but why do you say this? I wonder what your opinion is?"
The official wanted to give Wang Anshi an explanation himself, but Wang Anshi angrily refused to explain: "Your Majesty, the ministers in power must come in and out, otherwise they cannot suppress others."
The official said: "I use you as the prime minister of my ancestors. You don't need to do this."
The official said: "Is it because I said that Tang Jian was useless?"
The officials were trying to save Wang Anshi's face, but Feng Jingze said: "Your Majesty, I have repeatedly told Tang Jian that it is not possible to take off her clothes lightly."
Feng Jing's follow-up attack came very timely. I have often criticized Tang Jiang. Why didn't he impeach me just now? It's obviously you, Wang Anshi, who has a problem.
Wang Anshi also got angry and said: "How can benevolence and righteousness always happen? If you follow it, you will be a gentleman, if you violate it, you will be a villain. Everything Tang Jian said is correct, how can Feng Gong suspect that he is a villain and reject him? Where’s the words?”
Feng Jing smiled and said nothing.
At this point, the officials had no choice but to announce their withdrawal from the court.
Wang Anshi left angrily, while Wen Yanbo, Feng Jing, Wu Chong and other prime ministers stayed behind to report.
After a while, Feng Jing chased him out and said to Wang Anshi: "Your Majesty has said that you don't need to worry about Tang Jian's affairs. It's just that from now on, the advancement and retreat of people should not be based on (private) opinions, but should be based on public opinion."
Wang Anshi nodded and strode out. At this time, he saw Wang Yu and Zhang Shangying waiting outside.
When Wang Yu saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Dad!"
Zhang Shangying also had a look of embarrassment on his face. He was inexplicably beaten into an accomplice of Anshi (Tang Jian was right). At this moment, he had already taken the memorial against Zhang Yue in his sleeve and tore it into five or six pieces.
Wang Anshi looked indifferent. He had already recovered from Tang Jian's humiliation in front of all the officials.
He has always been very indifferent to personal gains and losses.
"Tang Jian is still waiting for punishment in Yongningyuan..."
Wang Anshi waved his hand and said: "Forget it, he's just a wind-crazed person."
Wang Yu said: "What do the officials think of dad?"
Wang Anshi was silent for a moment and then said: "The officials say that I employ people inappropriately!"
