"Wanyan Zongbi? Zong Bi turned out to be from the Jin Kingdom? ”

Zhao Huan's words made Li Zhu startled, and he squinted his eyes and looked at the night sky, obviously remembering something.

Zhao Huan took the opportunity to say to Li Zhu again: "I am actually not so keen on the throne, half a month ago, I only killed the traitor party in the DPRK and China, and the third prince King Yun colluded with the traitor party to betray my whereabouts, and I just demoted him to a commoner and accompanied the official family in Genyue!" But there are two things that I have the most difficulty accepting: one is the loss of life, and the other is the invasion of foreign countries! If the official family, Wang Qing, Fang La, and Tian Hu are Ming monarchs, even if they don't become emperors, what can they do, I would rather take heroes to the frontier to defend against foreign enemies! It's a pity that none of them have the world in mind, and they all want to be emperors just to live the official addiction of holding power! ”

"If you two have the world in your heart, please help me to make the world peaceful as soon as possible, if Zhao Huan has something insincere, the two of you can leave at any time, that is, take the opportunity to kill me to eliminate harm for the world, and Zhao Huan will also die without complaint! But if the two of them turn a blind eye and just care about being happy, and even go to help people like Wang Qing, in addition to letting the people of the world and the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty die hundreds of thousands, I really can't think of any meaning! ”

After Zhao Huan finished speaking, he looked at the two of them again.

Li Zhu was speechless.

The sword-wielding man lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said: "Although what His Royal Highness said is reasonable, I, Xiao Jiasui, am determined to travel the world, and I am terrified when I think of being an official in the court......

Siu Ka Sui?

It turned out to be Xiao Jiasui! Then I can't let you go!

Zhao Huan hurriedly said: "Who said that to be an official, you must stand in the court in a proper manner?" Civilian officials have the rules of civilian officials, and military generals have the practice of military generals. The Great Song Dynasty is about to develop maritime commerce and communicate with the world, and the sea route is most afraid of sea thieves! These pirates are bloodthirsty and murderous, and they have no sense of benevolence, so they must have a strong navy to protect the trade routes. The admiral has been settled, and the sea ship is also being built, only a commander-in-chief who is both civil and military, worried about the country and the people, if it weren't for a person like Mr. Xiao, Zhao Huan really couldn't think of anyone more competent! ”

"Admiral?"

Xiao Jiasui was stunned, the prince actually wanted to develop the navy? Isn't the commander-in-chief just floating on the sea every day?

Isn't it possible to see all kinds of exotic customs?

This is the key, and Xiao Jiasui can't help but feel excited.

After wandering the rivers and lakes for so many years, almost half of the land of the Great Song Dynasty has been gone, and it is still in the central region bordering the north and south, east and west, and there is no difference between the rest of the places that have not been went.

The sea is different.

Xiao Jiasui has known several maritime merchants, according to them, the sea is boundless, and there may be a completely different country in the middle of the sea, which is very thrilling and exciting.

Of course, the sea is also very dangerous, and hurricanes and pirates are all life-threatening.

But is he, Xiao Jiasui, a person who is afraid of danger?

Apparently not.

In short, the conditions given by Zhao Huan are very tempting and costly - to sacrifice their freedom.

He turned his head to look at Li Zhu, who was still struggling there.

Xiao Jiasui sighed silently.

That's it! This guy will definitely not be able to pull his face down and agree, if he goes back to Jingnan, he will have to go back with him, and he must not watch the people of Jingnan being harmed by Wang Qing.

Sure enough, Li Zhu, who had been thinking about it for a long time, shook his head.

"Thank you Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your kindness, and thank you to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for telling me about Zongbi. But I still can't say yes! ”

Zhao Huan's heart sank: "Why?" ”

Li Zhu sighed: "I have a group of relatives and friends who are still in Jingnan, and I can't give up on them!" When His Royal Highness and Wang Qing split the victory and defeat one day, Li Zhu will make a decision; If His Royal Highness has an accident at that time, Li promised that he would definitely save His Highness's life to repay today's love - but only once! ”

"It's naturally good to have Mr. help him, but as long as Mr. doesn't help Wang Qing, Zhao Huan is sure to pacify Jingnan; At the same time, I also promised my husband: I will try my best to save the lives of the people of Jingnan and Wang Qing's men, as long as they are not angry with people and gods, I can give them a chance to do it again! ”

Zhao Huan also solemnly promised.

Li Zhu put away his sword and handed it over: "In this case, Li has resigned!" See you in Jingnan! ”

Zhao Huan returned the salute: "Mr. go!" ”

Li Zhu glanced at Zhao Huan, lightly touched the ground with his feet, and flew into the air.

Xiao also said goodbye! Li Zhu's guy is too powerful, I have to watch! Wait for Wang Qing, if His Royal Highness is still interested in Xiao, Xiao will swear to follow him again! Your Highness, take care! ”

Without waiting for Zhao Huan to stay any longer, Xiao Jiasui also walked a few steps quickly, jumped upward, his figure was fluttering, and he quickly disappeared.

"Your Highness! The end will be incompetent! ”

Mu Hong saw that Zhao Huan had always been polite to the two of them, and he didn't dare to offend, so he had already let people collect bows and arrows; At this moment, seeing that the two of them were far away, they hugged their fists to Zhao Huan and pleaded guilty.

Zhao Huan helped Mu Hong up: "Don't do your business!" It's because their martial arts are too high, so they don't have to blame themselves too much! ”

Mu Hong is a strong martial artist, strategic, quite a leader, and a talent. Although the Water Margin that has been circulated in later generations has not paid much attention to him, Mu Hong's performance is quite outstanding in the original ancient book Water Margin and "The Legacy of Xuanhe of the Great Song Dynasty".

Especially after Zhao Huan subdued Liangshan, he personally contacted these people, and found that there were many hidden talents in them, such as Song Qing, Lehe, Shi Qian, Shi Jin, Mu Hong, etc., and had a deeper understanding of Mu Hong.

And Li Zhu and Xiao Jiasui's light skills are also too good, Zhao Huan's subordinates are estimated to be able to win steadily in time, and everything else is inferior, Mu Hong is even more short of light skills, how can Zhao Huan blame him.

"Go and rest, don't blame the sergeant, let's go back and work together to find a way to improve the defense of the palace!"

Zhao Huan comforted them a few more words and went back to the harem.

Although he didn't get Li Zhu and Xiao Jiasui in the end, he should have a good impression on them tonight, and next time he sees him, it will be much easier to subdue, thinking of this, Zhao Huan couldn't help but be happy.

Entering through the vertical arch through the vertical arch hall, everyone was separated in front of Zhao Huan's Funing Palace; Xie Zhen, Xie Bao, Yu Baosi, and Jiao Ting lived in Funing Palace, so they naturally had to follow Zhao Huan into Funing Palace, and the five girls were escorted back by the female guards in the palace.

Zhao Huan entered Funing Palace, but he couldn't sleep.

Although seeing Li Zhu and Xiao Jiasui made Zhao Huan very excited, it also brought him more pressure.

After the Shangyuan Festival, spring is getting closer and closer, and the beginning of spring is the day when Tian Hu was originally scheduled to go on the expedition, and it is precisely because of this that he practiced hard, in order not to become a burden to be protected by others at that time.

But now, Zhao Huan wants to change his mind and fight Wang Qing first.

This is not just for Li Zhu and Xiao Jiasui, but he originally felt that Tian Hu was too close to the Jin Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom, and it was easy for Tian Hu to commit treason if he pressed too hard.

What if the time comes when the time comes, you have to start a war with the Liao State?

Now Zhao Huan is not fully prepared, and this battle cannot be fought casually.

In addition, his army has not been baptized on the battlefield, and its combat effectiveness has not reached the level of elite, let alone the level of war with Liaojin.

And there are many advantages to beating Wang Qing first, one is to have Xiao Jiasui's help, and the other is that Wang Qing's strength will be greatly reduced if he leaves Li Zhu, and it will be easier for him to win.

You must know that Jishan Wuhu is Li Xiang's subordinate, but Li Xiang is Li Zhu's nephew, and it can also be said that Li Zhu's subordinate.

From easy to difficult, more down-to-earth.

Zhao Huan pondered for a long time, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was necessary to revise the strategy, and hit Wang Qing first, he decided to discuss it with Zong Ze, Wen Huanzhang, Xu Guanzhong and others at dawn.

……

In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

In the past month, the directors and officials of the states and counties of the Great Song Dynasty have all come to Tokyo to report on their work, and the failure rate of up to seventy percent made Zhao Huan angry several times, but most of the remaining thirty percent are top talents with both ability and political integrity, there are sixty or seventy, which makes Zhao Huan's worry a lot easier.

Subsequently, the central and local civil service systems of the Great Song Dynasty took these sixty or seventy talents as the core, and came to a big change. According to Zhao Huan, officials in various places would rather have a shortage than an indiscriminate, and the requirements are very strict.

Another major change is that Zhao Huan established an official school with Li Gang, Wen Huanzhang, and Song Jiang as the core.

A school dedicated to brainwashing officials, divided into two parts, Wenyuan and Wuyuan, and the actual person in charge was Song Jiang.

According to Zhao Huan's request, every two years, officials from all over the country should take turns to attend classes in Tokyo for a month, and in addition to ideological education, strategic education, and exchange of political experience, the course content should also be fully aware of the ideological state of the officials, and those officials who did not meet the requirements of the development of the Great Song Dynasty should be adjusted to other ministries and departments, and the remaining people would eventually pass the examination before they could continue to be officials.

All in all, for officials, passing the imperial examination is only the first step, to be an official must study often, but also to undergo regular strict assessments, far less than the previous official is easier, but the rule of officials will definitely be much better than before.

In addition, the development of the Military Command Department is also very rapid, it only took a month to reach out to the tentacles into various states, at this rate, it only takes another two or three months to cover every county, and Zhao Huan's eyes can basically see every corner of the entire territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

However, Wu's handling methods were obviously a bit vicious, and for those officials and wealthy businessmen, they all strongly demanded that they be convicted severely, and listed the evidence and harm in detail, which made the new criminal department Shangshu both unbearable and helpless.

And what Zhao Huan was most concerned about in this month was the logistical preparations for the army's conquest.

Don't worry about food, don't worry about military salaries, the ones obtained from the raid are enough to support Zhao Huan to destroy Tian Hu, Wang Qing and Fang La.

The focus is on armaments.

A few days ago, Ling Zhen's new gunpowder has been successfully tested, and its power is dozens of times greater than that of traditional black powder, and he is already experimenting with the use of new gunpowder on giant iron cannons and new gunpowder at the same time, and there should be news in a short time.

and Tang Long's forging method is also Zhao Huan's biggest concern.

The Great Song Dynasty could not only rely on the Divine Arm Crossbow and the Fierce Fire Oil Tank to fight the enemy, but must have a sharp sword and hard iron armor.

Huhuhuhu-

In the harem martial arts arena, Zhao Huan was practicing halberds, and nine hundred female guards were practicing swords, all of them murderous.

"Your Highness!"

Lehe hurriedly ran in.

"There was an accident over there ...... Ling Zhen"
