All parts have been completed, and Xing Chao is like an extremely accurate machine trained by Zhao Yu to run efficiently, and he has finally gotten rid of the cumbersome government affairs to relax for a while, look farther, deal with the more complex situation in the future, reconstruct the social structure, establish a reasonable state system and form, and prepare for the recovery of the Central Plains. The blueprint he planned was so big that it might take years, decades, or even a lifetime to complete, but everything needed to be tried.

Zhao Yu returned to Qiantang to supervise the battle, and at the moment there was not much to do except for the daily battle briefing meeting, but he became an idler. While preparing for battle, the ministries again conducted discipline education and promulgated regulations on punishment. He was more often in a 'daze' in the courtyard, and no one knew what the little emperor was thinking, but he knew that it was best not to disturb, so as not to feel uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, Chen Dutong asks to see you!" After a nap at noon, the little emperor fished in the pond in the back garden, leaving only Su Lan to make tea in the pavilion on the side, and the two small yellow doors were waiting from afar, but the fish had not yet been caught, Wang De came over lightly and said.

"Well, let him come here to see me!" Zhao Yu didn't look back, his eyes stared at the fish floating on the water.

"Yes!" Wang De was secretly relieved to see that the little emperor was not angry, and promised to dodge quickly.

"See Your Majesty!" Chen Renweng came in and said.

"No courtesy, sit down!" Zhao Hao twisted his face and smiled, pointing to Ma Zazi beside him and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After Chen Renweng saluted again, he sat down next to His Majesty, looked at the little emperor, and felt in a trance.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that he hadn't caught the fish for a long time, Zhao Yu took back the fishing rod, saw that the bait on the hook was gone, and threw the bait back into the pond, turned his face to see Chen Renweng looking at himself blankly, and asked with a chuckle.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates suddenly remembered the boat that went to Qiongzhou for the first time, the future was uncertain at that time, and Your Majesty often sat on the side of the boat to fish, and it has been nearly ten years." Chen Renweng said with some emotion.

"Hehe, you still remember what happened at that time." Zhao Yu smiled and said, "At that time, when you were seriously injured and just recovered, you had to go to Qiongzhou with me, but before you reached the age of establishment, your forehead was already wrinkled. ”

"Yes, time is like an arrow, and my subordinates are getting old." Chen Renweng stroked his forehead and said, "At that time, everyone was worried about whether they could gain a foothold in Qiongzhou, but now they are already under the siege of Ancheng and have recovered most of the south of the Yangtze River. ”

"So now everyone's worry is whether we can gain a foothold in Jiangdong and hold Jiangnan!" Zhao Hao said with a wry smile.

"Don't hide it from Your Majesty, there is indeed no shortage of such opinions in the government and the opposition, and some people even feel that it is better to be at ease in Qiongzhou, and they should not send troops to Jiangnan." Chen Renweng said.

"What does Chen Dutong think?" Zhao Hao chuckled.

"The subordinates think they're farting." Chen Renweng said angrily, "Back then, Qiongzhou was poor, with less than 200,000 people and only 10,000 soldiers, but it repelled the enemy army one after another and gained a firm foothold. Now the situation is a hundred times stronger than at that time, how can you not hold Jiangnan. ”

"They have never experienced the hardships and hardships of the year, they have only seen the current prosperity of Qiongzhou, naturally they can't understand it, and it is not surprising that they lack confidence in the restoration of the country, as long as we capture Lin'an, those rumors will naturally disappear." Zhao Hao looked at the fish drift that drifted towards the center of the pond with the waves, and said disappreciably.

"My subordinates think so too!" Chen Renweng nodded.

"Your Majesty, please use tea!" This is Su Lan walking over with a tray, putting the tea on the low table between the two of them and saying, "General Chen, please!" ”

"Thank you, girl!" Chen Renweng arched his hand slightly, and couldn't help but look at her twice. And Su Lan gave him a blessing and retreated.

"Chen Dutong must have something to do here!" Zhao Yu took a sip of tea and twisted his face and asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Renweng nodded and said, "This time in the north to the south of the Yangtze River, my subordinates have been in Qiongzhou without an inch, and now they are under this Lin'an City, but they are still idlers, I am really unwilling!" ”

"Oh, you're here to ask me for an official." Zhao Hao put down the teacup and said suddenly.

"No, no...... The subordinates are invited to fight. Chen Renweng was taken aback, he knew that the little emperor hated the most was important officials, so he waved his hand again and again.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to promise you." Zhao Hao smiled when he saw his frightened appearance, but still had no intention of changing his mind.

"Your Majesty, why? The subordinates have to lead the troops, even if they are a small soldier to charge for His Majesty. Chen Renweng listened anxiously.

"Haha, I want to give you an even more difficult task!" Zhao Yu laughed when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, please speak, your subordinates will never give up!" Chen Renweng got up and saluted when he heard this.

"Sit down and drink tea! This is a good tea from Hangzhou, which we couldn't drink when we were in Qiongzhou. Zhao Yu asked him to sit down.

"Your Majesty Xie......"

"The fish is hooked!" Before Chen Renweng finished speaking, Zhao Yu saw that the fish was shaking and shaking, and hurriedly picked up the rod to throw the fish up, but he felt that it was very difficult, knowing that he had hooked the big fish, he stood up and pulled the fishing rod suddenly, and Chen Renweng also hurried to help when he saw this.

"What a big fish!" Even after slipping and pulling, the two of them wasted a lot of effort to get the hooked fish up, Chen Renweng grabbed the gills of the fish and carried it up, which was about 20 catties.

"How can such a small pond have such a big fish?" The fish basket was too small to fit, so Zhao Yu hurriedly found a branch, put the fish on, and carried it in his hand. It is said that a big pond can only grow into a big fish, but it is strange that there are such large fish in this pond, which is only two acres in size.

"I think this pond has a culvert and the river outside, and yesterday the rain level rose and swam in." Chen Renweng thought for a while.

"As you say, this is the unlucky guy who came in by mistake!" Zhao Yu nodded, beckoned the little yellow door to take the fish away, and sat down with the bait again.

"What is Your Majesty's priority to do?" Chen Renweng took a sip of tea and saw that the little emperor seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, and he concentrated on fishing again, so he hesitated and asked.

"Well, that's right." Zhao Hao said as if he had just remembered, "In the past, we were able to occupy the danger of the strait that Qiongzhou relied on, but now we want to defend the south of the Yangtze River, but we must use the Yangtze River as a barrier." ”

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, our dynasty has been able to fight with Meng Yuan for more than 40 years, and it is only thanks to Dajiang that we will not lose it." Chen Renweng nodded in agreement.

"Most of the warships equipped by our sailors are sea-going ships, which can still move freely in the river during the rainy season, but they are in danger of running aground during the dry season. Therefore, I want to form an inland water army for the purpose of river defense, I wonder if Chen Dutong is interested in taking over this position? Zhao Hao asked after stating his intentions.

"This ...... The subordinates are willing to share the worries of His Majesty! Of course, Chen Renweng knew the importance of river defense, and it was precisely because of the strength of the Song army that the iron hooves of the Mongols were blocked. His Majesty placed this important task on himself, which was extremely trusting, but it was precisely because the responsibility was too great that he hesitated to come down.

"Okay, I'll give an order tomorrow to the military department to form an inland river fleet, and you will be the commander. Based on the more than 1,000 trainees of the Qiongzhou Haitian Island Naval Academy, and based on the 5,000 Cao troops captured in the Taihu Lake Campaign, 20,000 new recruits who are good at water manoeuvring were recruited. Zhao Yu said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chen Ren Weng Shili said excitedly. He knew very well what His Majesty meant, the inland water army was an independent army, different from the current water division, and he himself had become a member of the town guard.

"I have ordered the Suzhou Shipyard to build new warships and renovate old ones, and the first warships should be delivered in two months. You can use this time to open a mansion in Wuxi, and use Taihu Lake as your home port to build a water village to recruit and train new soldiers. We will do everything we can to ensure that you are in the army, but you will be able to carry out combat missions by May next year. ”

"The subordinates will live up to Your Majesty's expectations, if they can't form an army, they dare to be a military lawyer!" Chen Renweng bowed down and gave a big salute and promised.

"Okay, you can first select some people from the Guardian Army to form the Metropolitan Mansion, and the lack of personnel will be transferred by the Ministry of War, so let's set up the platform first." Zhao Yu nodded.

"Yes, my subordinates will act tomorrow, but ......" Chen Renweng said in high spirits, but he was halfway through his words, and he stopped talking.

"Is there any difficulty?" Seeing his embarrassed look, Zhao Hao asked again.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates do have something to ask Your Majesty to help!" Chen Renweng hesitated but still said it.

"Say!"

"Your Majesty, this time I came to take care of the little girl Shu'er with her subordinates, but now I am transferred to a new position, and there is no fixed place to live in the new army, and it is inconvenient for a girl to take it with her. None of the people who are familiar with their subordinates have any female dependents by their side, and I want to ask Your Majesty for permission to let them live in the palace temporarily! Chen Renweng looked at His Majesty and said.

"Not allowed!" Zhao Yu didn't think about it when he heard it, and stood up and said.

"This ...... Why? Chen Renweng didn't expect His Majesty to refuse so simply, and asked with his mouth open.

"Not allowed is not allowed!" Zhao Yu waved his hands and said undoubtedly. And he knew in his heart that if the little witch entered the palace, wouldn't it be against the sky, and he would never have a peaceful life.

"Your Majesty, didn't Shu'er live on the royal ship in the past, why this time? After the subordinates settle down, they will be brought back immediately, and they will never bother Your Majesty! Chen Renweng still didn't give up. I also wondered in my heart that His Majesty has always been very talkative, why did he refuse so resolutely this time?

"General Chen, this matter is indeed embarrassing for Your Majesty!" At this time, Su Lan continued the tea ceremony for the two, "Your Majesty and the daughter-in-law of the general's family will not say much when they are young, but today Your Majesty is already the year of wearing a crown, and the son-in-law is also the age to be married." The general sent the son-in-law into the palace, and His Majesty, who understood the inside story, was sympathetic to the courtiers, and those who did not know would inevitably be distracted. Calling Your Majesty's wife and daughter, and the general climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, is not only damaging His Majesty's holy name, but also hindering the name of the son-in-law, yes or no? ”

"What my sister said is exact, I really can't afford it!" Zhao Yu listened with a sigh of relief.

"This ...... Those who are clean are self-purifying, why bother with those villains chewing their tongues, and their subordinates believe that His Majesty will never do those unscrupulous things! Chen Renweng may really have no choice, and said after thinking for a while.

"Hehe, you're trying to kill me!" Zhao Hao smiled bitterly when he heard this. I thought in my heart that this Chen Renweng was really confident in himself, and he was not afraid that he would take the little witch away on a whim. Or he just wants to make the fake come true and take the opportunity to send his daughter into the palace, but it doesn't look like he has such thoughts, which is really troublesome.

"How dare your subordinates, didn't Your Majesty just say that you fully support your subordinates in forming a new army, is it ......?" said Chen Renweng.

"You ......" Zhao Yu was furious, this guy had eaten himself to death, and he dared to block himself with words.

"Your Majesty, don't be annoyed! Listen to the slave maid, is it good to arrange it like this? Su Lan saw the little emperor's eyes glaring and hurriedly dissuaded, seeing that the little emperor nodded and said, "At present, no one in the palace knows the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, so it is said that the palace maid newly selected by the queen mother to serve His Majesty, and the foreign ministers in the palace cannot enter, and no one knows about it." It's just that the wronged son-in-law can't enter and leave the palace at will, and she can't reveal her identity, so it's good to wait for the general to settle everything and then quietly take her out of the palace. ”

"Girl's good idea, Chen has thanked you!" Chen Renweng didn't wait for the little emperor to nod and thanked Su Lan first.

"Your Majesty, how?" Su Lan didn't dare to stand it, and asked the little emperor.

"Forget it, forget it, it's up to you, but you have to be optimistic about her, don't reveal the news and make me embarrassed!" Zhao Yu shook his hand and said angrily.

"That subordinate has taken his leave, and he will send Shu'er tomorrow!" Seeing this, Chen Renweng hurriedly bowed and said goodbye, and then bowed his hand to Su Lan and quickly withdrew......

Human life is at stake, Zhao Yu did not dare to slack off, and immediately called Wang De to tell him again, ordering him to keep secrets and not to disclose them to anyone, and to be optimistic after he entered the palace, the front hall must not be set foot in, so as not to be recognized. The back hall should also be staggered from where he lives, it is best not to meet, as long as An An can send her back, don't have any accidents, otherwise he won't be able to do it.

Su Lan was very curious about the appearance of the little emperor as if he was facing a great enemy, and couldn't figure out why he was so jealous of a little woman in the face of His Majesty, who had never been timid in the face of thousands of troops. But she knows that the things in the palace are complicated, and she must not ask what she shouldn't ask, and don't ask what she can't say, otherwise she will cause death, especially the gossip about the emperor, so she must be optimistic about it and keep it a secret if she suppresses her curiosity and follows His Majesty's arrangement.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates have urgent matters to worship the saint!" Just as Zhao Hao was setting the rules for the two, someone hurriedly broke into the backyard despite the obstruction of the little yellow door.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Hao saw that it was Ni Liang who ran over in a panic, and he was shocked, it must be a big deal to make this kid panic like this.

"Your Majesty, it's a mountain brigade ......," Ni Liang wiped his sweat and panted.

"Mountain Brigade?! Did they come into conflict with the other ministries? When Zhao Yu heard that it was a mountain brigade, he chuckled in his heart, but he couldn't think of anything else except for some friction with other departments.

"It's not!" Ni Liang shook his head and said.

"Is that their opposite?" Zhao Yu couldn't sit still now, stood up and asked urgently. The Great War is coming, and if the slang soldiers of the Mountain Brigade rebel and start a civil strife, it will be a big trouble......
