王安石变法与制置三司条例司置罢问题再分析

Reanalyze Wang An-shih’s Reform and the Establishment and Abolishment of Chih-chih San-san T’iao-li Ssu

制置三司条例司是王安石变法初期主持变法的重要机构。该司自北宋熙宁二年(1069年)二月设立,到熙宁三年(1070年)五月罢废。变法派与反变法派在青苗法政争的基础上,围绕该司的置罢问题展开了较激烈的政治较量。神宗在该司设立、活动、罢废等问题上发挥了至关重要的作用。该司的罢废是神宗抱守“祖宗家法”,平息舆论,运用君主政治权术,抑制王安石相权、平衡各方势力的表现;是君主在政治运作中通过罢废机构,对权势暂时较大的一方进行正面抑制,以实践其“异论相搅”之策的表现。宋朝君主的“异论相搅”之策不仅是一种通过人事任免,依靠他方势力的牵制策略,还是一种通过机构调整,抑制略占上风势力的平衡策略。

The Chih-chih San-san T’iao-li Ssu is an important institution for Wang An-shih to implement reforms in early stage of Wang An-shih’s Reform(1068-1077).This institution was established in February 1069 and was abolished in May 1070.Based on the argue of Ch’ing-miao-fa,the reformers and the opponents fought fiercely around this institution.As the emperor,Shen-tsung played an important role in the establishment and abolition of this institution.It is Emperor Shen-tsung’s expression to grab“Imperial Ancestors’Family Instructions”,restricting Wang An-shih’s power,using monarchical political strategy,calming public opinion,and balancing all forces,restraining power trough abolishing the institution.Obviously,the“Yilun Xiangjiao”is not only a containment strategy throughing personnel policy or relying on other power,and also a strategy of balance by adjusting institution or inhibiting power containment.
