Facing Wang Ning'an, Lao Wen seemed very humble, owed his body, and even felt a little servile.

"I know everything I know."

When Wang Ning'an heard the word "old" and was stunned for a moment, he was indeed old, but he might not be "dead"!

"Brother Kuanfu, Sima Jun is really my disciple." Wang Ning'an whispered: "How much do you know about him?"

Wen Yanbo did not hesitate and said directly: "Returning to the words of King Qin, Sima Junshi still respects his master in his heart, but he is a little helpless."

"Helpless? Wang Ning'an was stunned, "Can't even help me?"

Lao Wen shook his head with a wry smile, "Prince, Sima Jun really has no queen, who can help me with this?"

"ah!"

Wang Ning'an's face changed, how could he forget this matter!

In fact, Sima Guang is not without children. He has two sons, one is Sima Tang and the other is Sima Tong, but both of them died prematurely.

Sima Guang and his wife had a deep relationship and were unwilling to take a concubine. In addition, they were old and could only adopt a son named Sima Kang from their elder brother as his stepson.

This kind of situation is endless. For example, Bao Zheng had no descendants, and some people also proposed to adopt him from his same clan. At that time, Zhao Zhen was in power, and the ministers also forced the emperor to adopt the son of King Runan.

Bao Zheng felt that if he adopted a child, he would be coercive to the father, so he refused. Later, a concubine went out from Bao Zheng's house and became pregnant. He returned it to the Bao family, claiming that he was a descendant of Bao Zheng.

Old Bao accepted it happily, but the child did not make a fortune with his father. He just became a few small officials and continued his incense...

"Old Bao's second son is honest and upright, enough to carry the style of the Bao family, but Sima Junshi is not that lucky. His stepson is not very good!" Wen Yanbo sighed mournfully: "Your prince has also heard that Sima Junshi has written an article called "Training Frugality and Showing Kang"? Among them, Kang is Sima Kang!"

Wang Ning'an nodded, "Of course I have heard of this. This article is a rare and good article. My children and grandchildren have also read it. If you can make a frugal life, you will lose yourself if you are extravagant. This is a famous saying!"

Wen Yanbo laughed, "Prince, articles are good articles, but at the beginning, Sima Guang said 'I am originally Han', which is a real lie!"

Sima Guang's father was the chief censor and was a family friend of Pang Ji and Pang Xianggong. As soon as he entered the officialdom, he was well-cared for him. He was indeed not comparable to a poor family.

Of course, articles pay attention to brushwork, just like writing novels. They cannot be all true. They always need to be processed or studied in detail.

But Sima Guang's ability to write an article to teach his son a lesson shows his concerns...

"Brother Kuanfu, is Sima Kang not so polite?"

"Hahaha, it's not just not as simple as it's a joke!" Wen Yanbo laughed loudly, "This Sima Kang is young and smart, looks good, and can speak. After adopting Sima Guang, the couple regarded him as a pearl in their hands and took good care of him, especially his wife, who was even more unwilling to let his son suffer any grievances."

Wang Ning'an nodded. As a stepfather and stepmother, he really doesn't speak harshly. It doesn't matter if his own beating or scolding, but the stepson is separated by a layer and his own father is still there. Sima Jun really doesn't want to embarrass him.

Speaking of which, Sima Kang is really successful, good at studying, and very literary. Sima Guang was preparing to write books in private. He was busy with government affairs, and all preparations were done by Sima Kang.

He sorted out historical materials and analyzed them in detail, which was very concise. Sima Guang was surprised. In the same year, he passed the Jinshi exam again, and Sima Guang was even more ecstatic and felt that there was a successor.

Sima Guang, who has always been cautious and careful, recommended Sima Kangjian Xijing Grain and Materials Institute for the first time.

What does the grain yard do?

In charge of military rations and pay, supervise warehouse reserves in various places.

This is not a fatty problem, but an oil depot! Oil mountain!

For so many years, allocating grain and grass to soldiers, all of them have to go through the Grain and Materials Institute. The grain from the southeast and overseas has to be transported into the Beijing warehouse, and most of them have to be transferred into the Grain and Materials Institute. If disaster relief occurs, they have to be allocated from the Grain and Materials Institute... In short, there is no need to be greedy for every incoming and incoming. As long as you report a little more loss, you can make a fortune without realizing it.

"Because this position is so good, every prison is working for at most one and a half years. But Sima Kang, he worked for more than six years. He was transferred before his father competed for the prime minister, so as not to make trouble with him!"

Wang Ning'an frowned when he heard Wen Yanbo's words, and it was dark under the lamp, which was dark under the lamp!

He felt that Sima Guang had ambitions to fight for power, but he might not have been corrupt and abused the law... In fact, Sima Guang was indeed very honest. He was entangled with financial forces and only favored them in some interest rate policies. He had never made any real evidence when it came to money transactions, otherwise Wang Ning'an would not tolerate him!

Sima Kang is outstanding in literary talent, polite and conscientious in his usual manner, and he can't see any problems.

As Wang Ning'an's confidant, the son of Sima Guang, who was once the number one confidant, no one dared to implicate Wang Ning'an even if there was anything wrong with Sima Kang.

Because of this, Wang Ning'an has never noticed it.

However, this time, the financial forces were investigated and found out from the numerous accounts and letters, and Wang Ning'an became suspicious.

During the Song Dynasty, Wen Yanbo might not know about good things, but he was corrupt and abused the law, harmed the public and private, and fought against power... Wen Yanbo could not know about such things, and he could not do anything. This is because he has a specialty in his profession!

"Brother Kuanfu, Sima Kang is a lot greedy? What are your news?"

"I don't know how much I am greedy, but Sima Kang has made a lot of real estate." Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "The prince still remembers what happened in Yunzhou back then?"

How could Wang Ning'an forget that he drove the great uncle Wang Rong crazy at that time. It was that time that Wang Anshi's path to becoming the throne was cut off and he had to push Su Song out. Because Su Song's prestige and status were not enough, Wang Ning'an had to come out again after his term... That incident affected the direction of the Song Dynasty. Not to mention the importance, Lao Wen also lost all his property and was driven to Youzhou by Wang Ning'an, which was tragic.

When the old article was brought up again, Wang Ning'an's face turned gloomy.

"Could Sima Kang also be involved in that incident?"

"It's not just an involuntary relationship. I have suffered losses in the hands of two people in my life. One of them is Sima Kang. If I don't tell you the other, you know it too!"

Wang Ning'an snorted in anger, "Don't mess around, just talk about Sima Kang!"

"Yeah!" Lao Wen thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Prince, did you doubt Sima Junshi at that time?"

Wang Ning'an had a dark face and didn't say anything, obviously he made a promise.

At that time, such a big mess broke out. Wang Ning'an in one breath, destroyed the great uncle Wang Rong, expelled Wen Yanbo, rectified the bank, and resumed production. Next, Zhao Shu had to personally fight... The complex affairs were intertwined, making him unable to investigate Sima Guang in detail, so he could only put it aside.

However, since then, Wang Ning'an completely gave up the plan to let Sima Guang inherit his power. Until the future, he completely abolished Sima Guang. This knot in his heart has always existed and deepened until the master and apprentice broke up.

Years have passed, and Wang Ning'an is also very curious about what role Sima Guang played.

"Brother Kuanfu, what do you know?"

"Your Majesty, you knocked me out of tens of millions of property, especially the real estate in Xijing, and they were even taken away... But as far as I know, after Sima Jun actually took over the Khitan, he gradually issued more than the currency, including the time you went to Youzhou. He did this... As a result, within five years, the land price in Luoyang city increased by more than twice, and there was no market price... At that time, Sima Kang only used less than 5 million to occupy a large amount of farmland in the suburbs. Then the land soared, the city expanded outward, and the farmland became construction land, and the land price increased by more than 20 times! Compared with the Sima family, my little property is really a witch!"

Lao Wen chuckled, "Sima Kang, he is really a powerful junior. When it comes to making money, you are afraid you can't compare to it!"

Wang Ning'an's face darkened, "Brother Kuanfu, since he is so powerful, where did you know?"

Wen Yanbo blushed, "I knew the prince would ask this. I was ashamed. This time, I formed a petition group and many financial forces emerged. They paid a lot of money. The prince also understood that these guys always bet on both sides. They thought I was the prince's in-laws and followed the prince's intentions, so they revealed some news to me."

...

Wang Ning'an and Wen Yanbo talked for two hours, and Lao Wen told them all without reservation... I have to say that the two top smart people in the Song Dynasty felt chilling!

What a Sima Guang!

What a Sima Kang!

They hid too deeply.

After coming out of the yard, Wang Ning'an subconsciously wrapped his robe tightly, cold and cold!

Sima Guang was not like this from the beginning. He also wanted to be a famous minister, inherit his master's status, revitalize the Song Dynasty, and keep it in history... But he didn't know that with Wang Ning'an's efforts, the Song Dynasty had become different from the original history.

The released financial capital monsters are always looking for puppets. Once they find their weaknesses, they will be lucky.

Sima Guang's weakness is that he has no descendants, and he attaches too much importance to his stepson Sima Kang.

These people started from Sima Kang, dragging the entire Sima family into a quagmire little by little. In the end, Sima Guang would also fall into it...

Wang Ning'an's scalp was numb, not just Sima Guang, but his two sons were the same. How many people wanted to start from the Wang family and drag him in!

Fortunately, the two bastards are quite successful, they have not become crooked, and have not done too many tricks.

Wang Ning'an was even a little proud, and the next second, he became serious.

True, you are not a ruthless teacher, but you are the one who is responsible for your own fault!

"Go and tell Mr. Zhang to get someone!"

Before talking to Wen Yanbo, Wang Ning'an had already obtained a lot of evidence about Sima Kang. He talked to Lao Wen. On the one hand, it was to verify whether the evidence was reliable or not, and on the other hand, it was to look at Wen Yanbo. If you tell the truth, the old guy was quite honest!
