Chapter 570: If you are human, you will have weaknesses

Is Zhao Zhen really not worried? If you don't worry at all, you can't do it, Lu Zifei is only how old he is this year, he is twenty-three years old, a young man who is proud in his heart and has great kindness to the country is treated unfairly by this kind of unfairness, how can he not make waves in his heart.

What is Zhao Zhen, he is the emperor, and the change of power has correspondingly changed his view of power, Xia Zhu is just a testing stone, a chess piece that is about to be discarded to exert his last residual heat.

Lu Zifei is different, this young man is what he has watched all the way, and Xia Zhu's weight in his mind is not comparable, and he has a deeper understanding of Lu Zifei's sentence that rights need to be restrained until today.

"Go to the Privy Council and invite Privy Wen over, and say that I have something to ask him." Shi Zhicong, who was standing on the side, was not used to Zhao Zhen's style of doing things after becoming the emperor, and immediately withdrew from the vertical arch hall after waking up.

In the Song Dynasty, at least now there has not been a phenomenon of eunuch dictatorship, one is that the imperial power is still relatively stable, and the other is that the civil servants are more defensive of the eunuchs, from Wan Ming to Shangguan Wen to Shi Zhicong, the civil officials have not given them a chance.

So Shi Zhicong was very well-behaved when he saw Wen Yanbo, in Wen Yanbo's eyes, these people are slaves, and the royal and literati are the masters of this world, fortunately, Shi Zhicong is younger than Wan Ming and Shangguan Wen, and he didn't take Shi Zhicong too seriously.

"How is the emperor in his mood, do you know what is the reason for calling me over?"

Wen Yanbo's naked question made Shi Zhicong not feel very comfortable, what if you Wen Yanbo is the chief official of the Western Mansion, I am the person of the Son of Heaven, you just look down on us again, at least you should have a attitude!

"The emperor is meditating in the vertical arch hall, I don't know what is going on, and the major affairs of the court are not something that people like us can know."

Wen Yanbo shook his wide cuffs and said that I am very dissatisfied with your answer, Wen Yanbo sat on an equal footing with the prime minister at the age of forty, and he has the capital of pride.

In fact, except for Du Yan, most of the remaining people in this leadership team are relatively young, which is more in line with Zhao Zhen's mentality of wanting to do a big career.

"Wen Aiqing is here, sit down, and then make Wen Aiqing a cup of Quanzhou tribute Xiaolong Tuan."

Wen Yanbo didn't show much politeness, but he said respectfully: "I don't know what happened to the emperor when you called Weichen over?" ”

Zhao Zhen was a little entangled and said: "The war in Dali is in full swing, Gu Longhe gave me a note that the troops are a little lacking, Wen Aiqing, do you think we should continue to increase the number of troops in Dali." ”

The emperor said this, as a courtier, you must carefully taste what is implied in the emperor's words, this is the unspoken rule of officialdom, every subordinate should have the ability to figure out the hearts of superiors, and Wen Yanbo's ability in this regard is also at the level of the grandfather.

The war in Dali is about to be a year old, and the front of the imperial court is in a wait-and-see state, so it can be said that Lu Zifei is left to fend for himself with the Northwest Army. Coupled with Xia Zhu's Xuanfu Southwest, Wen Yanbo instantly understood.

But he felt that this worry was purely superfluous, but he still said his thoughts, it was impossible to increase the army in Dali, the imperial court's investment in Dali had come to an end, and the finances did not support large-scale wars.

"Dali's war court should not increase troops, the Northwest Army can toss in Dali what results, the court can accept, Dali to the south to Bagan, Jiaozhi these places, the north is blocked by Tubo, so Chengdu Road and Zizhou Road can give them a little help is enough."

Wen Yanbo felt that the emperor was too cautious, 50,000 people rebelled from south to north, there was no one in 10,000 possibility, as long as they saw a few key places, they were not the same as turtles in the urn.

Zhao Zhen felt that what Wen Yanbo said was also reasonable, but he still felt that it was necessary for Chen Bing on Chengdu Fulu.

"So be it! Now the forbidden army in the capital has not only hard tasks, but also those that can be moved. ”

Wen Yanbo said: "The Xuanwu Army, the Wusu Army, and the Wuhe Army have no defense tasks this year, but they are the next batch of candidates who are about to retire and join the police department, and it is a bit inappropriate to go to Dali." ”

Zhao Zhen thought for a while and said, "How many people are still in the Xuanwu Army, 20,000?" ”

"There are 20,000 people, and there may be some discrepancies in them, but the water is not that big, 17,000 people have."

"Then let the Xuanwu Army go! Gather 20,000 people and hand them over to Fu Bi, these 20,000 people can only be on Chengdu Fu Road to prevent the Tubo people from going down the mountain, Wen Aiqing, do you think it's okay? ”

Wen Yanbo said: "That's okay, but Chen Bing Chengdu, will the Northwest Army have an opinion." ”

Zhao Zhen said: "This is this is creating good conditions for the Northwest Army, relieving them of all their worries, I think they should be able to understand the painstaking efforts of me and the imperial court, you discuss a feasible plan with the Ministry of War, and implement it as soon as possible!" ”

Lu Zifei didn't know that Zhao Zhen was already thinking about preparing a second set of tightening spells for him and the 50,000 Northwest Army, he urgently needed to deal with Xia Zhu, a big yin man, and he would be shameless when he was old, and it was really a bit difficult to deal with.

"You are the Xuanfu of the Southwest, shouldering the heavy responsibility of the entire Southwest, and you are thinking about what is going on behind a small general judgment all day long."

Xia Zhu directly ignored Lu Zifei's cynicism, and said with a smile: "The affairs of the southwest are worried about the various transfer envoys and pacification envoys, I don't have so much energy, I just want to solve the problems between us now." ”

Lu Zifei said helplessly: "What is your identity, what is my identity, there is no problem between us, what do you want to do, tell the lower official directly, if it is really the lower official's duty, then the lower official is duty-bound." ”

Xia Zhu is even more helpless than Lu Zifei, this kid doesn't keep his hands, he doesn't accept whatever he says, you just have the ability to slay dragons, and you don't have a chance to play!

If it weren't for the fact that Dali's affairs couldn't be given up halfway, Lu Zifei felt that the probability of quitting his job and going home to accompany his family and children was very high, and the world would still turn without you, and he used to think too much.

Compared with his family, these things are nothing, he underestimated the emperor's heart of an emperor, he thought the world was too good, and he took it for granted in the treatment of the emperor.

Dali is very lively now, the Duan family, the Gao family, and various local forces are entangled together, and the fight is in full swing, although it has not yet reached his best chance to make a move, but he feels very worthwhile to be able to leave Xia Zhu, an annoying old guy.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the temporary position of Southwest Xuanfu is equivalent to the sum of the secretaries of the provincial party committees of five or six provinces, plus the commander of the general military region.

He wanted to slip away, how could Xia Zhu easily let him escape from under his nose, when Lu Zifei stepped on the ship back to Dali, he saw that Xia Zhu was already sitting on the boat waiting for him.

"It's okay for you to let me go, you just let me go as a fart, okay, a little person like me is not worth your attention."

"On this trip to the southwest, I have to let the grievances between the Lu family and the Xia family be relieved, my body is not good, I know this best, even if I know that the emperor asked me to appease the southwest, I still have to take this errand, do you understand?"

People are about to die, and their words are also good, Lu Zifei doesn't believe that people like Xia Zhu will be so weak, today he is soft on himself, because of the strength of the Xia family and the Lu family, the Xia family is defeated, if Xia Zhu dies again, he will be targeted by political enemies at that time, and he wants to try to change the ending of the Xia family.

"Is the emperor asking you to come for me? I don't have anything to say, since you are on the boat, then follow me to Dali by the way to see if there is anything wrong, you can just dismiss me on the spot. ”

Xia Zhu smiled, is this the performance of a young man? It is normal to complain, if it doesn't matter what you show, then Xia Zhu may turn around and leave immediately.

"You misunderstand the emperor about this, many people think the same as you, they feel that the emperor doesn't trust you, let me supervise your work, but you have to understand that Dali now only has three counties, but when you occupy the whole territory of Dali, it will be different, you may not be able to suppress those people under your hands, have you thought about it?"

Maybe what Xia Zhu said makes sense, but it is impossible for Lu Zifei to believe it all, just to support himself, there is no need to declare this official position at all, it can be said that the Ministry of Rites sent a waiter to give him face very much, and other purposes are just that he didn't think of it for the time being.

"Hehe, my lord really thinks of me so much, I don't have that much weight."

"No, no, no, you underestimate yourself too much, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at you by the court, and the people around you are all invisibly influenced by you, I don't deny that the emperor has the purpose you said, and the reason for this purpose is that you are very important."

At this point, Lu Zifei still agrees with Xia Zhu's words, of course, there will be a little joy in his heart, is there anything more joyful about living in the world than being recognized by others?

On the issue of the Lu and Xia families, Lu Zifei has never let go, the assassination of Xia Zhu a few years ago is one of the shadows behind it, Lu Zifei has clear grievances, you want my life, I still lick my face and slap you, he can't do it.

"I'm just a small person, I don't want to get involved in the things between you big people, I can't afford to get involved, I just want to live quietly, no other requirements."

Xia Zhu said: "You are dead determined to continue this grudge with our Xia family, look at the north and wait for you not to see that you are now infinitely beautiful, but let me tell you, I was the commander of the Northwest War at the time, and it is easier to investigate some things than others, and some things cannot stand the test." ”

Lu Zifei's face changed, he thought that no one would care about the excuse he made at the beginning, but Xia Zhu exposed this lie in front of him.
