Zhao Yu knew that Qingliu kept writing letters, accusing himself of being reckless, opposing the continued use of troops against Meng Yuan, and vigorously pursuing and attacking the Second Army in the incident of causing serious casualties to the people in the capture of Shouzhou City, and even put forward the remarks that not killing people was not enough to be angry with the people. At the root, they are still worried that the status of the warriors will be further improved, so the scholars will be marginalized, so they want to use the topic to suppress the warrior group.

At the beginning of the plan, the Northern Expedition was actually opposed by many people, and several important ministers also vaguely said that the foundation of the newly recovered Jiangnan was not stable, and the grain and grass were insufficient, so they should slow down and focus on stabilizing internal affairs. Zhao Yu also thought that it was reasonable, but he was also worried that the imperial court would be in financial difficulties and would be difficult to support a large-scale war, which would lead to the result of attacking but not being able to hold it.

Therefore, when formulating strategies, they tended to be conservative, delineating the scale of the war on the north line of the Yangtze River, seizing important military positions, and severely inflicting heavy losses on the Mongol army stationed in the Lianghuai region, so as to achieve the goal of relieving the military pressure in the south of the Yangtze River. Unexpectedly, Yuxi Timur's ambition was greater, and he actually wanted to raise two Huai troops to attack Jiangnan again, which led to Zhao Yu's pre-formulated battle plan having to be changed, and the scale of the war became larger and larger, and the battle line also crossed the two Huai and approached the Central Plains.

The victory of the war will inevitably create a large number of warriors to advance with military merits, enter the ranks of lords, and enter the court. And in the battle to recover the two Huai, Zhao Yu appointed a group of generals in the army to govern the place. The sources of officials sent by the court to accept the newly occupied land were not only scholars who had 'returned to the furnace' in Taixue, but also officials who were familiar with government affairs and officers who had retired from service, and the number was basically three.

According to Zhao Yu's experience, there is often a turbulent period in the early days of newly acquired land, not only is there an invasion of the remnants of the enemy, but also the people's morale is unstable and bandits are rampant. This requires that the receiving officials not only have experience in governing the local area, but also have some military experience. After all, the war has not yet completely ended, and the battle front has been repeated from time to time, and the local commanders must not only shoulder the responsibility of suppressing bandits and robbers and protecting the territory and the people, but also make good preparations for organizing the army and the people to resist the enemy's counterattack and support the frontline operations.

On the other hand, civilian personnel in the army, such as the Marquis of Yu and the Joiners, have experience in participating in the military and in managing soldiers and logistics, and it is appropriate to use them as pacification envoys, transit envoys, and even military governors and prefects to preside over the military administration of a place. And even if the war is over, officers with military experience are needed to defend the border against enemy invasion. Even retired officers can serve as local armed officials such as governors, inspectors, county lieutenants, and observers, and take on the work of training township soldiers and maintaining local law and order.

As for the scholars who have just passed the imperial examination, they have no experience in governing the local area, and it is difficult for them to assume the responsibility of pastoral and guarding the land. Therefore, Zhao Yu asked them to join the list of receivers, precisely to let them accumulate governing experience and lay the foundation for taking charge of a place in the future. Those veteran officials who have been immersed in officialdom for many years and have undertaken various practical tasks may not have made any achievements academically, but they have rich practical experience, are familiar with laws and regulations and work procedures, and are able to handle complicated practical tasks with ease, and are fully qualified to serve as county-level officials or auxiliary officials in state capitals.

Zhao Yu thought that it was completely appropriate to form a local receiving team in this three-way combination, which could not only quickly stabilize the local area, but also solve the problem of the future of officials who had not been promoted for a long time; It can also give retired officers in the army an easier way out, thereby reducing the resistance to recruiting new soldiers, encouraging active duty officers to have less worries, and the military system into the civilian system can enable Zhao Yu to strengthen local control.

But this plan also touched the interests of the scholarly class, who felt that their position in the bureaucracy was threatened, and that their traditional 'turf' was in danger of being lost. They knew that the position of the little emperor was already secure, and it was impossible to force him to abdicate by questioning his unorthodoxy as before, and the most direct way was to cut off his wings - to fight the warrior group, so that he would lose his strong reinforcements and have to re-attach importance to the scholars.

Therefore, the opposition to the Northern Expedition had the effect of killing two birds with one stone, and the help they relied on was the power of the people. After thousands of years of development, Jiangnan has become increasingly rich, especially after the Song Dynasty moved south, the prevalence of maritime trade, the land was fully utilized, and the economic development reached a high point. But people are selfish after all, especially in the era of self-sufficiency and closed information, no one is willing to break this 'barn rat' life without touching personal interests.

As a result, the people of Jiangnan were not interested in the Northern Expedition and were opposed to it, because in their consciousness, Jiangbei had become a barbaric land, with insufficient products and a difficult life, and they all depended on the rice and grain in the south of the Yangtze River to feed. After the recovery of the Central Plains, the imperial court naturally had to increase taxes to maintain its operation, which infringed on its own interests, which was tantamount to 'robbing the rich and helping the poor' in disguise.

Zhao Yu was very disgusted with the behavior of coercing himself with public opinion, and he did not shake his determination to go on the Northern Expedition. At this time, the Shouzhou fire caused serious casualties, so it became the reason for the Qingliu to attack, but they just chose to forget the massacre and harsh exploitation of the people in Jiangnan by Meng Yuan in the southern invasion, and did not mention that the action of this battle was precisely due to the fierce resistance of the enemy army, and some of the casualties were also used to help the enemy defend the city, and only grasped the point where the people suffered heavy casualties.

In Ruxue's book, those people described Liu Zhixue as a butcher who did all kinds of evil, and then demanded that Zhao Yu punish him severely, as if he was conniving and a tyrant if he did not do so. At the same time, it is a long persuasion that Zhao Yu must be a benevolent monarch, be good as a stream, and don't learn to go his own way and be spurned by the world.

Zhao Hao laughed angrily when he read it, the Shouzhou incident is just a accidental injury incident even in modern times, and anyone who takes up arms in a war can be regarded as an enemy and an object to be eliminated. As for the large number of casualties caused by the people, it was mainly due to the fact that the Mengyuan defenders closed the city gate and cut off the way to escape. Liu Zhixue could only bear the responsibility for improper tactical arrangement and incomplete consideration in the whole incident, and the shouting and killing of Qingliu was nothing more than an attempt to use his own hands to attack the martial artists and sow discord with the martial arts group.

For those who sabotage his own plans, Zhao Yu naturally wants to get rid of them quickly, but he also knows that the main task at present is the Northern Expedition, rather than spending his energy on internal friction. But if he let these people go, he felt unwilling, and pondered for a moment to think about it. Immediately ordered Ma Duanlin to transcribe the names of all the people who wrote the book, but did not tell him what he was going to do, which made him uneasy.

Zhao Yu then wrote two more secret letters, ordered Wang De to seal them, and checked several people from the transcribed list to send them to the Lin'an Affairs Bureau as soon as possible, ordering a secret investigation of these people. Not only do they monitor their public statements and actions, but they also have to investigate their private lives, even from three generations of their ancestors.

Zhao Yu thought clearly, you can hack me, and of course I can hack you. And he also knows that these so-called celebrities are not so noble and elegant on the outside, and their private lives are also extravagant, as long as they are carefully investigated, they will definitely be able to catch their short feet, and even if they can't find it, someone will naturally make up a perfect 'resume' for you, and make it difficult for them to argue.

These are just a piece of cake for the bureau that has been fighting against Meng Yuan for a long time, making things out of nothing, exaggerating, and picking bones in eggs are all good tricks. And Zhao Yu didn't want to use these things to blackmail him, but wanted to use various means to publicize his 'evil deeds' to the public, expose them to the eyes of the government and the opposition, and make it stink. Since celebrities are called 'famous', they are naturally the most important reputation, once the dirty things and black history they have done are picked up, their reputation will definitely stink, think about what a stinky person on the street says, who will believe it, I am afraid that even what he said in the past will be regarded as a lie.

At that time, the great Confucian Zhu Xi was also impeached by the ministers for the stinky incident of seducing a nun and a daughter-in-law to become pregnant, although some people said that this was a fabrication of it, and it was a framing and persecution of him. But it was this controversial incident that caused Zhu Xi to be forced to petition for guilt and swept Sven away. Then it led to the impeachment of the imperial history, listing ten major crimes such as "disrespecting the king", "disloyalty to the country", "insulting the court", "harming the wind and religion", "private people and money", etc., and he was to be beheaded, and later escalated again into the Qingyuan Party case.

As a result, Zhu Xi was impeached and crowned, and his protégé Cai Yuanding was arrested and sent to Daozhou. For a while, the prestige of science was swept away, and he was denounced as "pseudo-science", Zhu Xi was denounced as a "pseudo-teacher", and students were reprimanded as "hypocrites". Ning Zong changed his old state and issued an edict ordering that all those who were recommended as officials would not be taken from "pseudo-scholars", and he was once very arrogant and was picked off the horse in this way. The reason for this case was that Zhu Xi concocted the 'Yan Rui case' and wanted to use it to attack his political opponents, but others grabbed his shortcomings and turned him to the ground, and stepped on countless feet, until he was 'rehabilitated' after his death.

Zhao Yu understands that the other party's political opponent is a little dirty with these means, but when has the power thing been glorious. And when things happen, you can't sit back and watch being hacked, and who can fight over yourself who is at the top of power and has countless resources in your hands, don't look at the joy they are dancing now, let them pull the list in a blink of an eye.

After arranging this matter, Zhao Hao's mood improved slightly. At this time, a small yellow gate hurriedly entered the door, and told the imperial protector that Ni Liang, the commander of the imperial guard, had led the front army to Xuyi, and his light horse entered the city to ask for an audience. He was overjoyed when he heard this, and rushed out of the door in a hurry, although it was not exaggerated to the point of greeting him, but he could not be called well-dressed. When the monarch and the ministers met, they didn't wait for Ni Liang to salute, Zhao Yu had already stepped forward to hold his hand, although the two were only temporarily separated for more than a month, but anyone could see that the little emperor had laughed with tears in his eyes, and Ni Liang was also excited and couldn't speak, the two looked at each other with a smirk......
