351. June 20, 2nd year sunny The rotting grass is a firefly, and the carrion is a maggot

"Go and reply to the eldest prince, the matter of finding the sword is on me, but I am too busy to have time to meet guests."

Xiao Song is indeed very busy, and today he has to deal with a group of white lotus demons, and the treatment methods of these people are extremely cruel, the higher the status in the sect, the more cruel the disposal method is, and the treatment of women is more and more outrageous, and even righteous people began to criticize Song Gou's behavior, but once it is discovered, it will be punished as the same crime, and no one will talk nonsense after that.

There's no reason for this thing to talk about, kill? If the killing is useful, there will not be a continuous stream of batches. This cult cultivates the afterlife, but killing him really follows their wishes, and it should be regarded as sacrificing one's life for righteousness.

Therefore, we must be cruel and humiliating to these things that have brought disaster to the country and the people, and let the stupid people who do not know the truth know what these people have done.

As the evil deeds of the White Lotus Sect were gradually exposed, and the people who had suffered greatly came forward to speak out, the people's sympathy for them became smaller and smaller, and instead the three execution ceremonies were overcrowded every morning, noon and evening.

People looked at the White Lotus villains on the stage who were about to be tortured to death with excitement on their faces, and they all applauded.

Of course, although Song Beiyun's ghost-like methods were very effective in deterring the local chaos, they attracted the disgust of many wastes who had been living a good life for too long and causing their brains to be fat, and they used their connections to put a complaint in front of Zhao Xiang.

But Zhao Xiang only glanced at it lightly, and then threw the paper into a ball and threw it into the basket.

He didn't like Song Beiyun, and he didn't like his behavior. But since Song Beiyun was the one he chose, he had already expected what would happen, and this kind of thing was a matter of course, even if there were not many things that cult demons usually did, a single decision was indeed not enough to make those little ones dormant and afraid.

In troubled times, you should use heavy canons, these words were said by Ding Siqing to Zhao Xuan yesterday, and although he argued with him three times, he finally agreed in his heart, the stability of the country is above all else, and someone should be the bodhisattva with a kind eyebrow, and he must need this hideous ghost.

At least from this point of view, Song Beiyun did a good job.

However, the second letter made Zhao Xiang a little confused, this second letter was written by the high-level evil ghost Song Beiyun, and he directly said in his heart that he needed to cut off the power of the Imperial City Division and divide the Imperial City Division into three.

This letter is very long, but the general meaning is that if the Imperial City Division is not divided into three, it will become a big problem in the future.

This remark is a little interesting, even Zhao Xiang has seen someone dislike his power for the first time......

But looking down further, Zhao Xiang felt that although Song Beiyun was a cold-blooded bastard, he was indeed a talent for governing the world and the country, and he elaborated in the letter why he wanted to divide the Imperial City Division into three.

To put it simply, the Imperial City is divided into three divisions, one is to ensure safety, and the division is responsible for daily protection of the city's safety, and branch departments are set up in various prefectures and counties to better control the civil trends and fulfill the responsibility of supervising the yamen.

The second division is to protect the national unity, and the division is responsible for spying on the intelligence of the empire, cracking down on the spies of other countries, and going deep into all corners, and the subordinate personnel are all secret agents, who need to go through special training before they can be used, and support people in the rivers and lakes to enter it.

The third division protects the people's livelihood, and the third division is the collective name of the new three divisions before, coal, grain and smelting, the three divisions are integrated into the people's livelihood, and part of the responsibilities of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households are attributed to the People's Livelihood Division for coal mining, grain expansion and smelting research and development.

After the Imperial City Division was divided into three, it was best for each to perform its own duties, and at the same time, the first and second divisions could restrain each other, and perform the responsibility of supervising the army in wartime and supervising in peacetime, and it was inevitable that there would be another mutiny.

The Security Department can not only understand the trends of the people in a timely manner, but also nip the signs of the White Lotus Rebellion in the bud.

These ideas are very fresh and carefully scrutinized, there is indeed a good way, the Great Song Dynasty's control of the local is really weak, this Zhao Xiang has to admit that the law does not reach the county, this problem has become a stubborn disease, and Song Beiyun's idea is to better control the movement of the grassroots without changing the existing structure.

Based on this alone, Zhao Xiang could give affirmation, so he approved a sentence on the letter that he had read, and then added a clause to his recital.

But as he wrote, he still took out a piece of paper again and wrote a reply letter to Song Beiyun, with not many words on it, only a few sentences "Do it, don't forget it, do it, and plan it well" to the effect that Song Beiyun should not go too far, just a little bit.

But after thinking about it, I still tore off the paper in my hand and started writing again, but this time there was only one sentence: "But don't ask, plan later."

If the above is the instruction of an elder to a junior, then the following sentence is an instruction from a superior to a subordinate. In his heart, Zhao Xiang didn't like this kind of killing, but as the minister of a country, he clearly knew that only in this way could he cut off this tumor that grew on Da Song's body.

Wicked people always need someone to do it, and now that someone has done it, he can't pour cold water on people to help, as a cabinet manager, the core component of the highest power center of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Xiang can clearly recognize his position and the position of his subordinates.

"Master, some celebrities have come to visit."

"Then I told them that I was going to face the saints." Zhao Xiang replied softly: "It's nothing more than people who eat all day long, and they don't see it." ”

"Understood, sir."

After finishing the order, Zhao Xiang sighed, leaned back in his chair, and changed his hand from a black pen to a red red pen, which was a privilege set by Emperor Taizu, and only Zuo Xiang had the right to hold a red pen except for the emperor.

"Devil, devil, devil......"

Zhao Xiang muttered twice, and then wrote three words on the silk paper, "Commendation Order".

In the afternoon of the same day, the commendation order for Song Beiyun posted in the mode of the emperor list attracted countless criticisms, with supporters saying that the person who moved the country and chaos was to use thunderous means, and opponents said that it was no different from a beast.

But no matter how they discussed, the matter has become an established fact, and the reward for Song Beiyun is also a certainty, this kind of high-level reward has only been received twice even by King Fu, who has fought all his life, and even Zhao Xiang himself only got it once when he solved a super big case when he was still a servant of the Criminal Department more than 20 years ago.

In the two decades since, no one has received this honor.

Although his heart and hands are trembling, the significance of this award means that Song Beiyun is qualified to enter the core political circle, this is a special admission ticket, and if it is signed by Zhao Xiang himself.

So those who know the industry probably understand that this award means that Song Beiyun has become one of the candidates for the future Xiangguo.

I have to say that although Zhao Xiang has a unique ability to fight, but at the same time he is indeed carefully cultivating and looking for a successor, his son-in-law Yan Shu can, resourceful, intelligent and agile, although he eats like a pig, but his talent is increasing with experience. But in comparison, Song Beiyun is more dazzling.

It is also interesting to say, among the people that Zhao Xiang fancies, in addition to Yan Shu and Song Beiyun, there is another person who is Kuang Yusheng.

How to describe it, if Song Beiyun is suitable for governing the country of troubled times, then Yan Shu is suitable for opening a new era of cultural governance, and Kuang Yusheng is a gentleman, and a large number of outstanding talents can be promoted in the prosperous era.

And the shortcomings of these three people are also obvious, Yan Shu's mind is changeable, and it will not last long. Song Beiyun is stingy and narrow-minded, and cannot be tolerated. Kuang Yusheng is dull and boring, and must not be flexible.

If these three people can become one, Zhao Xiang said that he can die on the spot.

But the sky is always not what people want, and if many things can be as good as they think, it is a good thing.

"Teacher, are you looking for me?"

Yusheng stood at the door of Xiangguo's study at this time and knocked on the door twice, and Zhao Xiangxiang hummed and motioned for him to come in.

"Yusheng."

"Teacher, I'm here."

Zhao Xiang leaned back in his chair and looked at his somewhat dull protΓ©gΓ©: "What do you think of what your brother did?" ”

"It's over, it's not too late, but it's ...... When he comes back, I'll look for an opportunity to have a long talk with him. Yusheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "He is not so fierce, there must be something, I don't know the truth." ”

"And how are you going to convince him?" Zhao Xiang looked up at Yusheng: "In what name are you going to persuade him?" ”

"It must be inappropriate in the name of family and country, only in the name of brother." Yusheng pondered for a moment: "With a pure child and full of poetry and books, in the end, you can't change that jackal, tiger and leopard." ”

"Nope." Zhao Xiang shook his head and said, "You are wrong." ”

Yusheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Please teach the teacher." ”

"You have it in his name, not in your name."

Zhao Xiang pointed to the stool, and after Yusheng sat down, he continued: "He was wrong? He's right. He acted in that box, so why was he wrong? The person who plotted the rebellion deserved to die, and as for how to die, it was natural that the more he died, the better, and his behavior was to let those people die as they deserved, which was enough to deter people. But in terms of people, this matter is indeed too fierce, and it is not conducive to his cultivation, although it is a duty, but it is better to be careful to let the desire to kill lose his mind, do you understand? ”

Yusheng nodded slowly: "Disciple understands." ”

"Go ahead, you go to Hangzhou in person." Zhao Xiang took off a jade plate from his waist and handed it to Yu Sheng: "With your gentle gentleman's style, it will dissolve the anger in his heart." ”

"The disciple understands, so he will set off."

"This waist card is given to you, and I hope you will be like jade in this life."

"Thank you."

Yusheng took the waist card and turned around and left, while Zhao Xiang leaned back in the chair and sighed, and said to himself: "I'm getting old, I'm getting old, but I still have to work hard, this life is not worth it......"
