Fan Chunren was exiled to be the governor of Qingzhou because he opposed the new law. At that time, the Qinzhong area was famine, so he decided to open the Changping Warehouse to release grain to provide relief to the victims. The subordinate officials requested to submit the court first and wait for the approval. Fan Chunren said: "When there is a approval, it will be too late, and I will bear this responsibility alone." Some people accused him of saving the number of victims he saved, which was not in line with reality. Zhao Xu issued an edict to send envoys to investigate.

As the autumn harvest was met, the people said happily: "You have indeed saved us, how can we bear to implicate you?" So they kept fighting to send food to return it day and night. By the time the envoy arrived, the grain that was often closed was no longer indebted.

Later, he was transferred to Qizhou magistrate. Qizhou's folk customs were fierce and powerful, and the people could steal and loot. Some people believed that: "Even if this situation was severely dealt with, it might not be stopped. You should be lenient to it. I am afraid that the illegal and disorderly affairs that need to be rectified cannot be exhausted." Fan Chunren said: "Tolerance comes from human nature. If you try your best to punish it, it cannot last; severe punishment but cannot last, so as to manage violent people, this is a way to create stubbornness."

There is a yamen in charge of the prison that is often full of prisoners, all of whom and vendors who commit theft. They are detained here to urge them to compensate. Fan Chunren said: "Why don't these people let them pay after bail?" The magistrate said: "If these people are released, they will cause trouble again. The government often waits for them to die in prison due to illness, which is to eliminate the harm for the people."

Fan Chunren said: "According to the law, the crimes they committed will not be a death sentence. But they will kill them with such a will. Is this a law to deal with?" He called them all to the government court, admonished them to correct their mistakes and become human again, and let them go. After a year, theft cases were reduced by half compared with previous years.

Fan Chunren is a simple and generous person and does not treat others with harsh words and harsh words, but he thinks that it is upright and unique in his morality and does not surrender at all. He once said: "What I have learned in my life, I have never been able to benefit from the word "Loyalty and Forgiveness" in my life. So I served the king in the court, handed over colleagues and friends, and had a harmonious clan for a moment, and never left the word "two."

He often warns his children and nephews: "Even people who are extremely stupid are sensible when they ask others; even those who are smart are confused when they forgive themselves. If you can ask others for your own thoughts and forgive others with your own thoughts, you don't have to worry that you will not reach the realm of a sage."

His younger brother Fan Chuncui was an official in Guanshan. Fan Chunren was worried that he would have the intention to make contributions to the Western Xia. He wrote to him: "The big cart competes with the wood cart, the pearls collided with the rubble, the gentleman and the villain fight, and the big Central Plains and the small foreign countries compete for victory. They are not only invincible, but also not enough to win. Not only is it not enough to win, but it doesn't matter even if they win." Some relatives asked him for advice, and Fan Chunren said: "Only diligence and thrift can help integrity, and only forgiveness can achieve virtue." The man wrote this sentence next to his seat.

Fan Chunren's political views were both conservatives as Sima Guang, and he was very opposed to Wang Anshi's reform. In the second year of Xining, Fan Chunren wrote a letter publicly accusing Wang Anshi of "squeezing wealth and profit". He was demoted for opposing Wang Anshi's reform. However, after Sima Guang restored the prime minister, he insisted on abolishing the "Qingmiao Law". Fan Chunren did not agree with this.

Fan Chunren said to Sima Guang: "The laws formulated by Wang Anshi have their desirable side, and there is no need to slander them because of others.

.” He hoped that Sima Guang would be humble and "relay the public" and would adopt the proposition that there are desirable points. However, Sima Guang did not take this as much as possible, but only regarded Fan Chunren's views as wind in his ears. Sima Guang abandoned the new law, Su Shi, Fan Chunren and others sighed melancholy: "How come another husband is stubborn."

Besides, Wang Anshi wanted to promulgate the Qingmiao Law because the two laws had been implemented. Lu Huiqing tried his best to instigate them, but Su Che said no. Wang Anshi asked why, and Su Che replied: "The original intention of lending money to the people is to save the people. However, once the money is in their hands, it will inevitably be used randomly. When the deadline is over, most of them cannot be repaid. The relevant officials will definitely recover it. At that time, the whip is used to save the people, and saving the people will become harmful to the people."

Wang Anshi thought for a while and said, "You are right, so let's go temporarily." So he didn't talk about this method for a long time. Soon, Wang Anshi followed Zhao Xu's order and reconsidered a prison case in Dengzhou with Sima Guang. Wang Anshi invited Sima Guang to discuss the matter together. The two had different opinions and could not help but argue again.

It turned out that there was a woman in Dengzhou who had already agreed to marry a man but had not yet gotten married. Later, she heard that the man was ugly, so she felt uneasy and actually hid a sharp blade to murder this person. As soon as the man was sleeping in the house, she drew his sword and chopped him. Fortunately, the man was not asleep yet, so he hurriedly avoided him, so he was able to survive. It was just because he opened his hand and had a finger cut off.

The man then went to the government to file a lawsuit, and the governor Xu Zun received the report and sent someone to arrest the woman. Seeing that the woman looked good and was indeed not worthy of the man, Xu Zun deliberately exonerated the woman and asked her to admit it one by one, and said that she could try to protect her, so the woman would naturally obey her orders. Xu Zun then surrendered herself to the court.

Wang Anshi thought Xu Zun's words were feasible. Sima Guang said angrily: "Can a woman reduce her crime if she murders her husband?" Wang Anshi said: "Since the woman surrenders, she should be given a slight resignation." The two of them stalemate and immediately asked Zhao Xu to make a judgment. Zhao Xu thought that Wang Anshi was right and supported Wang Anshi's opinion. Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi and others also came to advise and block, but Zhao Xu did not obey their opinions.

Soon, Wang Guangyuan, the transfer envoy of Jingdong, reported that farmers sow seeds, but they had no capital, and the rich were able to take the opportunity to borrow money and demanded high interest. Therefore, he asked to keep 500,000 yuan in the road, lending 500,000 yuan to the people to get interest, and he could make a profit of 250,000 yuan a year. Wang Anshi couldn't help but be happy when he saw this article: "This is the Qingmiao Method, why is it not feasible?"

Wang Anshi then urgently summoned Wang Guangyuan to the capital and discussed the Qingmiao Law with him. Wang Guangyuan agreed. Wang Anshi then requested the promulgation of the Qingmiao Law, which was first opened from Hebei, Jingdong and Huainan Roads, and then gradually promoted it. Zhao Xu issued an order to allow it, so the former Changping Tonghui Cang system was changed. Su Che still insisted on the previous statement, and repeatedly dissuaded it, which was mostly inconsistent with Lu Huiqing's views.

Su Zhe, whose courtesy name was Ziyou, was from Meishan Mountain in Meizhou. He was as famous as his father Su Xun and his elder brother Su Shi, and was collectively known as "San Su". Su Zhe was born in the second year of Baoyuan. At that time, his father Su Xun was 31 years old and traveled around the world. In the eighth year of Qingli, Su Xun stayed at home because of his father's death and closed his door to study, and taught himself to Su Shi and Su Zhe with his knowledge and character. In the spring of the first year of Jiayou, Su Zhe and his son visited the capital together. When he passed by Chengdu, he visited Zhang Fangping, the minister of Yizhou, who was the magistrate of Yizhou. Zhang Fangping treated Su Zhe and his son with national rituals.

In the second year of Jiayou, Su Zhe and Su Shi brothers participated in the Ministry of Rites Examination. At that time, Ouyang Xiu learned to pay tribute.

Su Shi and Su Zhe were placed in the upper class, and Su Zhe was named the fifth rank. After the first grade, he presented the "Letter to the Privy Councilor Han Taiwei" to the Privy Councilor Han Qi. In August of the sixth year of Jiayou, Su Zhe participated in the palace examination. At that time, Zhao Zhen was fifty-two years old. Su Zhe thought that he might be tired of political affairs, so he tried his best to talk about the gains and losses of political affairs, and was particularly enthusiastic about the matters of the ban on the court.

After the test paper was sent, Su Zhe thought he would have been demoted. Sima Guang, the examiner, placed him in the third grade, but Hu Su disagreed. After Sima Guang discussed with Fan Zhen, he placed him in the fourth grade. Cai Xiang, the third department, tried to protect Su Zhe. Only Hu Su thought Su Zhe was disrespectful to Zhao Zhen and insisted on demoting him. Zhao Zhen said: "When you speak frankly, you will win people, but because you say bluntly, what will the people in the world say to me?" The prime minister had no choice but to put him in the lower grade. Soon, Su Zhe was appointed as the proofreader of the Secretariat and the military prosecutor of Shangzhou. Su Xun was ordered to compile the "Book of Rites", and Su Shi served as the judge of Fengxiang. Su Zhe asked to serve his father in Beijing, and was approved by the court.

In the second year of Xining, Su Che wrote a letter to discuss political affairs and was summoned by Zhao Xu in Yanhe Palace. At that time, Wang Anshi and Chen Shengzhi were in charge of the three Regulations and ordered Su Che to join the three Regulations and Regulation Department. Lu Huiqing was attached to Wang Anshi, and Su Che was often in conflict with him when discussing with him. Su Che said to Chen Shengzhi: "In the late Jiayou year, officials were sent to suffrage all kinds of people, but they all tried to cause trouble. Most of the reports when they came back could not be implemented and were ridiculed by the people of the world. What is the difference now?" He wrote to Wang Anshi, trying his best to say that this matter was not feasible. Wang Anshi was angry and blamed him. Chen Shengzhi was useless to dissuade him. In August of the second year of Xining, he was demoted and appointed as the postmaster of Henan Prefecture.

Wang Anshi also recommended Lu Huiqing as the crown prince Zhongyun and the storyteller in Chongzheng Hall. Prime Minister Fu Bi saw that Zhao Xu trusted Wang Anshi and thought he could not fight with him, so he asked for illness to leave and became the judge of Bozhou. Zhao Xu promoted Chen Shengzhi to Tongpingzhang.

After Chen Shengzhi took office, Zhao Xu asked Sima Guang: "What are the discussions outside when Chen Shengzhi was appointed recently?" Sima Guang replied: "The people of Fujian are cunning and the people of Chu are easy. Now the two prime ministers are from Fujian. Zeng Gongliang is from Jinjiang, Chen Shengzhi is from Jianyang, and both belong to Fujian. The participating political affairs are from Chu, and Wang Anshi is from Linchuan, and belong to Chu. In the future, they will use relatives and friends to fill the court. Where can they cultivate customs?"

Zhao Xu said, "Chen Shengzhi is quite talented and knowledgeable about civil affairs." Sima Guang said, "Talent is not unavailable, but there must be a real man next to him and secretly supervise the producer to be safe." Zhao Xu asked Wang Anshi again, and Sima Guang replied, "It is a pity for outsiders to say that Wang Anshi is evil, but he is too stubborn and does not understand the truth, which is also a serious illness." Zhao Xu never listened to his slander.

Chen Sheng's name was Yangshu, and was from Jianyang, Jianzhou. In the first year of Jingyou, he passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination. He served as the governor of Fengzhou, the military commander of the Hanyang army, the supervisor of the army, the censor of the right censor, and the servant of the divine clerk. He served as a censor for five years and reported dozens of things. Once, Chen Sheng reported that Zhaowenguan and Jixianyuan were the way to promote the promotion of scholars and officials. He became increasingly betrayal of the practice of aristocrats and became a ladder for the progress of officials and requested strict selection of talents. So the emperor ordered: "From now on, ministers who beg for their kindness to be the descendants will not be able to get rid of the palace."

Once, Wang Guan, the author, met the governor of the Jiedushi Chengyou, but did not dismount. Chengyou angrily scolded Wang Guan and escorted him to Kaifeng Prefecture. Chen Shengzhi reported to this: "Why should the court officials dismount when they meet the palace commander?" He impeached Chengyou's arrogant and arrogant position. The court removed the position of Chengyou's palace commander, and Chen Shengzhi was therefore promoted to Tianzhang Pavilion.
