Chapter 511: An Army Dominated by Money
"Your Majesty, the ambitions of the Great Song Dynasty have been revealed, and we have to guard against it! You can't go wrong with your precautions! ”
"The minister of the country is too worried, they have always regarded themselves as the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire, how could they do something to encroach on the territory of the subject country, if the prime minister is fine, he can worry more about where Nong Zhigao is, find him out and hand him over to the Song people, maybe he can get the reward of the Zhao family?"
This is a dialogue between Dali Emperor Duan Silian and Prime Minister Gao Zhikai, Duan Silian is a person who has been deeply influenced by Buddhism since childhood, so he doesn't like war and killing in his bones, which is very similar to Zhao Zhen.
And Gao Zhikai is different, he has been a phase for many years, and the power of the Gao family is all over the court, it can be said that some people will not know Duan Silian when he walks on the street, but Gao Zhikai knows everyone there.
Being an official and doing this with Gao Zhikai is definitely regarded as a glorious ancestor, but people are just not satisfied! He felt that Dali had all this today because of his own credit, and it had nothing to do with Duan Silian, who was eating fasting and reciting Buddha, he was forbearing, he was waiting, waiting for the Duan family to take the initiative to give him a meditation position, but now there was an unexpected guest who couldn't allow him to think too much.
Although the Duan family's achievements in Dali are not high, they are very popular with the people of Dali, and the management of Dali does not rely on the law, so Gao Zhikai is very patient in usurping the throne.
Hearing that the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty came from Jiaozhi, Gao Zhikai was so frightened that he almost lost his soul, and he had been safe for hundreds of years, why did he have a change when he was about to succeed, was it a coincidence or the Duan family did it intentionally.
Duan Silian's attitude is very important, but this person is no longer saved, he fantasizes all day long that he can't extricate himself from Buddhism, the country will die in his hands sooner or later, Gao Zhikai doesn't want to be captured, he regards Dali as his own territory, your Great Song army wants to make waves in my house, so do you have to go through my consent first.
The military power and the court are all under his control, and after returning home, he summoned his cronies and generals for the first time, Gao Zhikai is very smart, he knows that once the army of the Great Song Dynasty hits Dali, he has no chance to turn over, and if he wants to stop the Song people, he must stop them in the Luo Dynasty or Xiushan County.
After Duan Silian heard the news that the army was leaving the city, he only paused a little in the process of chanting the scriptures, and did nothing else, because he knew that he couldn't do anything, and it was better not to do it than this.
Zhao Zhen, who is on the throne, is different from him, the spring breeze is proud, his face is full of mockery, there is nothing better than his current mood, looking at the faces of the ministers, he really wants to laugh.
The ending expected by the ministers did not come, Lu Zifei everything went smoothly in Jiaozhi, and from the mouth of the person who came back, it was concluded that he had almost emptied the entire Jiaozhi country, what was the price to pay, an insignificant canonization, in Zhao Zhen's eyes, such a canonization he could write tens of thousands of ways every day.
Song Zhen said: "Your Majesty, Lord Lu is the judge of Guangnan East Road, and now he has run to Jiaozhi, although he has brought back a lot of property for the imperial court, but the minister thinks that this is unreasonable. ”
This is going to be difficult! Zhao Zhen thought in his heart that doing so could only make him look down on these people in his heart, and he couldn't do anything serious except for playing tricks for a day.
"The judge of Guangnan East Road went down with the purpose of counterinsurgency in the first place, and there is no problem with this! Lu Qing did a very good job, the Nong clan was uprooted on Guangnan West Road, and the deterrent effect also played, there will never be such a thing in the future, Song Qing felt that the landing judge did not do well? ”
Song Zhen said: "The emperor misunderstood the minister's meaning, and the minister thinks that the matter of Nong Zhigao has been over after more than half a year, and the Northwest Army should also meet the northwest, and Lord Lu should meet Guangzhou." ”
There are a lot of meanings in these words, it is light that Lu Zifei is ignorant, and it is important that Lu Zifei does not listen to the tone of the imperial court, Song Zhen is the prime minister, and everyone understands this differently, so it can only be said that the benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise.
Zhang Fangping is Zhao Zhen's hardcore supporter, and he is also one of the beneficiaries of this time, as the third envoy, he always feels that the silver in the treasury is not enough to spend, but every now and then, his nobles appear, and a lot of silver automatically falls in his hands, which feels too sour.
"Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that if you don't fight a snake, you will not die, but you will suffer from it, and a traitor like Nong Zhigao should be killed with a stick, if he is allowed to resurrect, it will be a devastating blow to the court and the people."
Some people support it, some people oppose it, the two sides are basically in balance on this, Zhao Zhen will not let anyone dominate, this is his experience as the emperor for more than ten years, and no one can convince anyone.
When there are many people, the tone will not be lowered, so return to the vertical arch hall to continue, Zhao Zhen is not panicked at all, is this thing reasonable? The more you argue, the clearer it will be, and there will always be times when a person is short of words.
Song Zhen stood up and said excitedly: "I'll just say it!" Now there is a mess inside and outside the court? Even if Dali is defeated, who will govern? Is there anyone who wants to go to that kind of place, let you go, do you want to? ”
The literati of the Great Song Dynasty were greedy for pleasure, which is recognized by history, their treatment is good, they are rich, and indeed no one will be willing to give up the flower world in front of them to a barren land, this kind of thing is possible in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, but it is difficult in the peaceful and prosperous era.
This question is also asked on the point, anyway, Song Zhen dares to guarantee that none of these people in the vertical arch hall today are willing to go, far away from the court, away from the center, away from the emperor, and dealing with a circle of earth monkeys all day long, whoever wants to go is afraid that he will lose his mind.
Since Lu Zifei dares to do this, he must also have a layout in the DPRK, he has his own hardcore supporters, and of course there are many people who oppose it, Fu Bi released a piece of Zhao Zhen's heart-pounding cake.
"Expanding the Territory"
Lu Zifei's sworn enemy appeared, this person is no better than Wang Gongchen, Wang Gongchen and Lu Zifei are personal grudges, but Song Qi is a political enemy, and it is a discord in political concepts, so to speak, these two people cannot hold power at the same time, and they cannot be prime ministers at the same time, otherwise the work of this world will not be carried out.
"I said at the time, Nong Zhigao is just a mustard moss, Yang Wenguang is a failure and careless, but there are many generals and literati in the court who can fight, you don't choose, you have to release the tiger cub with a violent atmosphere in your heart, now it's okay, so that everyone can't end it, and now my suggestion is to recall Lu Zifei immediately."
Fu Bi said: "Lord Song just erased the exploits of others so easily? It was someone else's hard work. ”
Song Qi said: "I don't mean to erase his merits, every point that should be rewarded is indispensable, I just feel that he is not suitable for leading soldiers, the power of gunpowder is the person here I know, and there is an unknown weapon that has not been used?" In this matter, the emperor has an unshirkable responsibility. ”
This Song Qi is also awesome, and the war burned to Zhao Zhen's head in an instant, and Zhao Zhen was also confused, how could he have anything to do with me again.
"Song Aiqing, did you say the wrong thing?" Zhao Zhen was shocked by the momentum exuded by Song Qi.
"Then can the emperor tell me what happened to the gunpowder that appeared in Lord Lu's hands? Didn't you say that the imperial court would stop researching gunpowder? Without the will of the imperial court, who gave him Lu Zifei so much courage. ”
The digression is that Lu Zifei must have been instructed by you, without your intention in it, I am afraid he will not dare to give him 10,000 guts!
Zeng Gongliang said: "Lord Song, don't go off topic, today we are here to discuss the matter of Dali, not to chase these small problems, what do you say?" ”
Wen Yanbo said: "In fact, there is still a way, if Dali really belongs to the Great Song Dynasty, the ministers will say a policy in governance, the ministers will say it casually, and the emperor and all colleagues will listen to it casually." ”
Pang Ji said with a smile: "Master Wen is modest, the problem that stumped everyone was solved by you, this is not something that can be explained by casual words." ”
Wen Yanbo muttered: "In fact, every year, there are new class jinshi who have not gone to work, they go everywhere to ask for relationships, find people, they don't do the job they want, I think the imperial court gives them a higher starting point, they are very willing to go to Dali." ”
"Master Wen's proposal is not bad, but the new class Jinshi has no experience in governing the local area, they can be a magistrate, but it is not okay to go up, there are at least ten states in Dali, these people choose from there."
Wen Yanbo said: "This is simpler, in the past, the place where we sent people to demote officials was Lingnan, if Dali was defeated, we could repeat the old tricks, what do you say?" ”
Everyone fell into deep thought, what Wen Yanbo said was reasonable, but how difficult it is to really implement, only they know in their hearts, because people's thoughts are not easy to control.
Serious digression made Song Zhen very dissatisfied, I am the prime minister, what do you want to do, I haven't stepped down yet? The core of the problem I am talking about is not to fight Dali, and you are here to discuss with me the problem of how to deal with it.
"Are you daydreaming? Who gave him Lu Zifei the courage to make this kind of decision, I mean the same as Song Shangshu, Lu Zifei is no longer suitable to lead troops, we should immediately dismiss him, and then let him go back to Guangnan East Road to be his own judge. ”
The prime minister's words are very heavy, and the use of the word "roll" has proved that he is very angry, in fact, the reason for this problem in the final analysis is that Song Zhen feels that he has lost control of the imperial court, followed by the army, and he feels that if such an army continues to fight, he will soon lose his mind and lose the control of the imperial court over him.
The loyal servants of the army want the gifts of the emperor and the scholars, not money, and a small person wants to challenge the authority of the prime minister, even if this little person's future achievements are high, but not now.
Zhao Zhen also suddenly realized, it turned out that the entanglement was here! Song Zhen's starting point is good, it is for their Zhao family, but under the balance of the two powers, he doesn't know what to do.
An army dominated by money, he could not imagine what would appear in the future, whether it would be loyal to the court or to the individual.
