Chapter 173: I Tell You a Little Secret
Wei Zhongxian happily returned to the palace with the roster and reported the arrest of Hu Guirong to Guo Zongxun in detail.
Even, Hu Guirong's crying appearance is vividly learned by Wei Zhongxian.
"This Hu Guirong is quite rich, 10,000 taels of jars, he can take out 10,000 taels of silver tickets without frowning, it seems that this old man is not less greedy in the Northern Han Dynasty."
Wei Zhongxian was a little surprised, His Majesty's focus was really different.
"Intended, the Criminal Department will arrest all the people who betrayed their identities, they are self-isolating from my Great Zhou, I will not give them the opportunity to change their identities and come back to participate in the scientific examination next year, even if such people are officials, they will be the one who will be in trouble, and they and their families will all be sent to Huangzhuang to farm, and they will not be allowed to take a step out of Huangzhuang for the rest of their lives."
"As for these students from the Northern Han Dynasty, if they are lucky, I just want to take this opportunity to publicize my Great Zhou Guowei to the outside world, let them all restore their original identities, register one by one, sign a letter of guarantee, and they will not be allowed to return to the Northern Han Dynasty regardless of whether they fail in the examination."
"Hu Guirong, this person, I don't care what his purpose is, I don't believe what he said, I can't believe it, it could have been done to do righteous and bright things, he wants to do it secretly, this person, the mind is dark, unusable, let Jinyiwei watch it first, and then release him after the autumn. Degraded to commoners. ”
"Da Zhou is about to send troops to the Northern Han Dynasty, didn't Hu Guirong say that the word "Han" in the Northern Han Dynasty insulted the ancestors, so I will erase it. ”
Guo Zongxun really didn't like Hu Guirong, when he was the prince, he met with this person, and he felt that there was a haze in this person's eyes.
Maybe it's a distorted personality, or maybe he's really ill-intentioned, in short, what Hu Guirong did, Guo Zongxun didn't like, very disliked.
In this scientific expedition, Yanyun's scholars have a special list, and this time they have set up a special list for foreign scholars.
After dealing with Hu Guirong's matter, Guo Zongxun asked Yue Fei and Zhao Kuangyin to be summoned to the imperial study.
"See Your Majesty."
"Flat, sit."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Kuangyin and Yue Fei sat down, knowing that when the little emperor summoned them, he must be talking about the conquest of the Northern Han and Southern Tang Dynasty.
"Yue Aiqing, I want to blame you, after returning to Beijing, you didn't say anything to me, and quietly handled the marriage with Li Wa, you say, how will I punish you?"
Guo Zongxun deliberately kept a straight face, but he was still very satisfied with Yue Fei's approach in his heart.
Yue Fei returned to the dynasty with the master of the Splashing Heaven Gong class, and has become a bright star among the generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, attracting the attention of the public.
"The minister is guilty, please forgive your majesty, it is the minister who is not thoughtful, after the minister returns to Beijing, His Majesty said that after the autumn harvest, he will send the minister to the Northern Han Dynasty again, the minister is also in a hurry, thinking of quickly giving the clumsy Jing a name, so the minister ......"
Guo Zongxun waved his small hand and interrupted Yue Fei.
"I know, you are in a hurry to get married and hold your son, haha, okay, I don't blame you, it's just that I was going to congratulate you on the reward of your new marriage, and I will make your wife a three-grade order, go back and tell Mrs. Yue, so that she can help me take care of the Hall of Heroes of the Hundred Battles."
"Thank you for your grace."
This matter was lightly revealed, Zhao Kuangyin was envious on the side, but at the same time, he didn't want the little emperor to give him so much honor, so that when he rebelled, he would feel less guilty on his conscience.
There's no way, I, Zhao Kuangyin, boast of being the dragon and phoenix among people, how can I be subservient to others.
"Zhao Aiqing, I decided to let you lead the troops to the expedition first and stationed in Huainan, I will give Li Chongjin a will, so that he can fully cooperate with you in terms of grain and grass, what else does Zhao Aiqing need for this expedition to the Southern Tang Dynasty?"
Zhao Kuangyin bowed down and said:
"Your Majesty, the minister has been rectifying the forbidden army these days, and now I have enough grain and grass in Dazhou, and the soldiers are carrying the pride of recovering Yanyun, and His Majesty's reward for meritorious soldiers is very rich, so the morale of the army is high, and now, the minister's command is ready to go, waiting for His Majesty's orders at any time."
Zhao Kuangyin didn't mention any conditions, which made Guo Zongxun a little surprised, he originally thought that this guy should at least ask for more weapons, grain, grass and even horses.
"Very good, Zhao Aiqing really deserves to be a rare general in my Great Zhou, go down and prepare, five days later, I will personally march for Marshal Zhao and all the soldiers."
"The minister obeys the order, and the minister retires."
Zhao Kuangyin originally wanted to stay here and listen to the little emperor's arrangements for Yue Fei, but who knew that after the little emperor finished his orders, he directly asked him to retreat.
"Yue Aiqing, the Northern Han is about to enter winter, the reason why I am preparing to use troops in winter is that I don't want to give the Northern Han a chance to breathe.
"Obey."
"When attacking the Northern Han Dynasty, there are two places you should pay attention to, one is Yang Ye who is stationed in Linzhou, this person is proficient in the art of war, excellent in martial arts, known as Yang invincible, especially good at defending the city, I suggest that you can take a siege but not attack the strategy of Yang Ye, the main attack on Taiyuan, as long as you take the so-called emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, Yang Ye will naturally surrender."
Guo Zongxun said this, naturally he has his reason, the historical Yang Ye was after the Northern Han Emperor surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty, received a letter from the Northern Han Emperor, asking him to surrender, he surrendered to the Song Dynasty, in the final analysis, Yang Ye still obeyed the orders of the old master.
This is also a tragic story in history that does not delve into the story of Yang Ye's surrender to the Song Dynasty, but widely publicizes how loyal he was as a Song minister, but was finally killed alive by Zhao Kuangyi.
Speaking of which, Guo Zongxun thought of another person, Pan Mei, a famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty, Pan Mei at this time was not in Kaifeng, but in Yongxing, and his official position was similar to Cao Bin's previous introduction of envoys.
This is also a very personal relationship with Zhao Kuangyin, so Guo Zongxun has always taken an attitude of not promoting and not reusing Pan Mei.
These people are known to future generations because of Zhao Kuangyin, or even because of Yang Ye.
Now that I, Guo Zongxun, am the emperor, I have the final say on who to use and who not to use.
"There is also a place that does not belong to the Northern Han Dynasty, I am also determined to get it, that is Fuzhou, Fuzhou is bordered by the Yellow River in the east, grasslands and deserts in the northwest, and the states in the west of the Hexi River in the south, the geographical location is very important.
"Obey."
"There's a little secret, I can tell you, Yang Ye's wife is Zhe De Yan's daughter Zhe Saihua, as far as I know, this Zhe Saihua still secretly eloped with Yang Ye, haha."
Yue Fei was shocked in his heart, how could His Majesty be so familiar with the Zhi family in Fuzhou and the Yang family in Linzhou?
