The Song Dynasty emphasized culture and art, and its science and technology developed rapidly. Although its territory was far smaller than that of Han and Tang Dynasties, but its wealth accounted for 80% of the world at that time. When it came to the Song Shenzong era, Wang Anshi and their reforms formed a heyday with political clarity. Moreover, Song dynasty also reached the highest level of social and economic development in the world in the 11th century. Dongjing of the Great Song Dynasty was the largest city and the most prosperous place in the world at that time; among the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, there were six masters living in the Song Dynasty, they are Ouyang Xiu, Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, Su Xun, Su Shi, Su Zhe, and Bao Zheng, Mei Yaochen, and Sima Guang , Wen Yanbo, Fan Chunren, Huang Tingjian, Mi Fu, etc., all the stars appeared in this period! The social life during this period was rich and colorful, and the culture was highly prosperous. It was the golden age of Chinese cultural development; this is a vivid picture of the river on the Qingming Festival.In the last years of Renzong, there were many abuses, and the voice of reform was high. The young Wang Anshi did not want to be an idler in the court, but looked forward to showing off his skills day and night to eliminate the current abuses. He was deeply loved by Bao Zheng, Ouyang Xiu and Mei Yaochen, and has always thought hard, studied history and reality carefully, and made gratifying attempts. Shenzong Zhao Xu admired Wang Anshi for a long time and boldly used him, and soon made the world a new one. A group of young talents held high the banner of the new law, reaching the top of their life. This can be called the willow spring season! Afterwards, history entered the era of Zhezong, Sima Guang completely abolished the new law, the court entered into partisan disputes, and the country was at stake!Reform is an eternal cause. In addition to the tens of thousands of old forces, the reformers also need to face themselves. It is even more difficult to defeat people themselves.
