The "iron coupon" that Xin Er talked about is the "Danshu Iron Coupon".

In the original time and space, this thing began in the Han Dynasty ancestor Liu Bang, and in the time and space when Xin Er arrived, this thing originated in the middle of the Qin Dynasty. At that time, there was a rebellion of the clan, and with the assistance of famous ministers and wise generals, the Qin Emperor, who succeeded to the throne, finally put down the rebellion after several years. After quelling the rebellion, in order to reward the heroes, imitated the "oath" of the pre-Qin period, combined with the "Fu Festival", and then there was the birth of the iron coupon.

Emperor Qin awarded iron coupons to the civil and military who had made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, and established a relationship similar to an alliance with them as a commendation and trust.

Since then, the iron coupon has become a symbol of imperial power together with jade seals and other things.

How can we "once and for all" harvest the heart of Xianbei and righteousness?

What Huang Rong proposed was to make an alliance with the chieftains of Beishan Xianbei in the name of the king of Dingxi.

The iron coupon can not only be used as a tool to praise virtue, but also as a political tool to appease Hu Yi and vassals.

So, how to use the iron coupon as a tool to appease Beishan Xianbei, or in other words, what should Xin Er make an alliance with?

An important reason why the Xianbei of Beishan and the rest of the Hu tribes are not very willing to submit to the Xia regime is not elsewhere, but because they are not happy to accept the various exploits and oppressions imposed on them by the Xia regime.

At the end of the Cheng Dynasty, the grandfather of the founding emperor of this dynasty, who was later called Gaozu in this dynasty, was the minister of the Cheng Dynasty. In the land of Guanlong, the strength of several Ronghu tribes represented by the ancestors of the Pumao clan is not weak, in order to compete with the enemy for them, the ancestor of this dynasty made an alliance with the ancestor of Pumao with iron coupons, "covenant not to serve", thus enveloping them. The result of the covenant was that Pumao's ancestors led thousands of families to join him,—— which was also the beginning of the internal migration of the Pumao family.

Huang Rong suggested: You can follow the deeds of Gaozu in this dynasty, start from the "service envoy", cut the iron coupons, and make an appointment with the Xianbei tribes of Beishan, from now on, the imperial court only collects normal taxes, and no longer adds additional miscellaneous taxes to them. In addition to this article, it was also agreed that as long as the Beishan Xianbei tribes could obey the military service, then their subordinates would not be assigned any labor service.

It is for the two chapters of the covenant.

Dingxi is just a kingdom, and has no power to use iron coupons, but it doesn't matter, first, Dingxi is equivalent to independence, and has a history of private official positions, and the two have almost been cut off from the Jiangzuo court, and even the report of Linghu Le's succession has not been able to be sent to Jiangzuo so far.

As soon as Xin Er's "iron coupon" was discussed, it immediately set off a lot of momentum in the DPRK and China.

If you compare it with the resistance alone, the resistance encountered when you created the monk and the degree system a few days ago cannot be compared with this.

Song Fang was the first to come out and fiercely opposed.

The last time Xin Erju asked for amnesty, Pan Kuan did not express his position, and this time he also euphemistically expressed his dissupport.

However, what Song Fang and Pan Kuan didn't expect was that Lu Shuang, who resolutely opposed the "ban on opening mountains and Zeyuan" last time, unexpectedly stood on the side of supporting Xin Er this time.

Actually, there is nothing surprising.

There are also Hu Qi under Koji Shuang's hands, and there are also Hu Qi under Koji Shuo's account, and the koji ball is all Lu Shuihu, so to speak, on the question of how to get Hu Qi's reliable loyalty, the Koji family and Xin Er are naturally on the same front.

Although Xin Er only mentioned the Beishan Xianbei tribes in this recital, who can say that Lu Shuihu, Xirong and other departments could not be included in it later?

In addition, Xin Er had already hinted at Koi Shuang in advance, and if his proposal could be passed by the court, he would be willing to co-sign with Ko Shuang and be the initiator of this proposal. Whoever can sign this book will be supported by the beneficiaries, and this is a clear thing. If he can sign his name on it, it will not only be of great benefit to the Hu Qi of the Koji family's control of his subordinates, but also further elevate the political status of Koji Shuang in the Koji family, and it is no wonder that Koji Shuang is not moved by this.

No matter how fierce the opposition of the Song side is, the attitude of the five ministers who care for their lives is the key.

Pan Kuan is against it, and Koji Shuang is in favor.

The remaining three, this proposal was proposed by Xin Er, and he didn't need to say it.

Sun Yan and Chen Sun.

Sun Yan also knew that the basis of power was military, coupled with the close relationship between Su and Yang Xian, as well as the humble style of condescending and respecting others and pleasing him, as well as the background of everyone who was also a scholar, he has been in close contact with Xin Er recently; Xin Er and him have initially formed a "semi-ally" relationship, and basically achieved the goal of "forming an alliance" proposed by Yang Chao before.

From the perspective of national finance, he analyzed that for a long time, the imperial court has not been able to form a vertical and effective management of the various departments of the Hu people, and the taxes and labor of the Hu people will not have a big impact on the Dingxi Kingdom; On the other hand, if the iron coupons can be promulgated, it will play a positive role in stabilizing the relations between Tang and Hu in China.

The three of them were unanimous.

Chen Sun's heart is not in favor.

He said in his heart: "As soon as the iron coupon is issued, all the Hu Yi will be grateful to Xin Er, or it may increase its strength." However, in the current situation, not only Sun Yan agrees, but also Koji Shuang. Xin Er's proposal, Sun Yan is not harmed, it is beneficial to the Koji family, even if I forcibly suppress it for the time being, it is inevitable that they will find an opportunity to make a comeback in the future. Rather than that, I still be silent and good, and I will watch it. ”

Chen Sun does not support or oppose it.

The "iron coupon" proposal was thus adopted.

It has its own relevant departments to prepare, and then summons the chiefs of Huyi's ministries to carry out the ceremony of awarding the award.

When Song Fang arrived home, he was angry.

The servants did not dare to disturb him when they saw that his face was ugly, and they served and changed clothes, carried tea and water, and were all lightly served.

There was still one unlucky, the sound of cleaning up the tea set was a little louder, and the slave immediately felt bad, and knelt down to plead guilty, but it was useless. Song Fang was furious, pointed at him, and shouted at the strong slave outside the door: "Drag it out!" Kill! ”

The slave was frightened and begged for mercy, and was dragged out by the strong slave, and the sticks were thrown down, and he was killed in a short time.

Although the state has laws and regulations prohibiting the killing and injury of slaves and maids, the Song family is so powerful that if they kill a few slaves and maids, who dares to care?

Song Fang went out, checked it himself, and saw the slave lying on the ground, from his buttocks to his head, there were scars and blood stains, and if he was already out of breath, he let out a sigh and ordered: "Throw it out of the city, don't bury it, feed the wild dogs!" "Swing room.

After sitting for a long time, the beating of the green tendons caused by anger slowly calmed down, Song Fang closed his eyes and thought, "I underestimated Xin Agua!" Even if he succeeds in today's iron coupon performance, it will not matter, at most he will be able to buy a little nonsense; However, he has been able to pass several letters in the court every time, and he can always get the support of important ministers, which is serious! ”

The last "ban" request, Koji Shuang objected; This time, the "iron coupon" request, Koji Shuang agreed.

This time, the invitation of the "iron coupon" was widely opposed, and Chen Sun did not express his position; In the last request for "amnesty" and "banning", Fen Kuan did not express his position, and Chen Sun agreed.

Song Fang only perceived Xin Er's ability to grasp people's hearts and interests from these phenomena.

Xin Er's family background and reputation have not changed, and he is still not seen by Song Fang; But after discovering that Xin Er had this ability, Song Fang's perception of Xin Er changed dramatically, and he began to attach importance to Xin Er and regarded Xin Er as a real opponent who could be regarded as a great enemy.

That's why he's so angry.

"Zhang Daojiang's erection and ignoring Song Xian seems to be not provoked by me. The marriage between Fan Kuan and Zhang Hun is obviously a desire to unite the two families and squeeze out my family, and he wants to be the head of the court! The Pan and Zhang families have other thoughts, and Xin Er is scheming, according to this situation, my family is in danger! …… No, I have to go see my father. Today, he was silent again. This old fox, so calm, must have a plan in his heart! I'm going to ask him what he's going to do! ”

Thinking of this, Song Fang's clothes didn't change, so he wore home clothes and rushed to Song Hong's house by car.

The two met.

Song Hong frowned and said, "Why are you dressed like this!" Isn't it cold on the road? ”

Song Fang wore a single coat with a thin hakama underneath. The shape of this hakama is rare, and two straps are sewn on the waistband of the trousers, which can be worn over the shoulders, resembling the bib pants of later generations. Song Fang sometimes likes to be unconventional, once in someone else's home saw this kind of new hakama from Jiangzuo, felt novel, so he made a few, often worn when idle.

Song Fang didn't answer Song Hong, stared at him, and was silent for a long time.

Song Hong was panicked by him, and asked, "Huang Nu, what are you doing to look at me directly?" ”

Song Fang got straight to the point and said: "Father, Fan and Zhang are married, Xin Er is scheming, my family is in danger!" I know you have a solution, so don't hide it from me anymore! ”

Song Hong said: "What countermeasures? ”

Song Fang said angrily: "Father! Me, can't you believe me? When is it, you are still engaged in the 'secret loss' set! ”

The more I think about it, the more nervous I feel about my future.

Song Fang anxiously pulled the strap off his shoulder, pulled it on both sides of the hakama, walked around a few times, stopped, and said to Song Hong: "Father, just tell me!" "If you insist on refusing to tell me, Father, I may have to do something else!" ”

Song Hong raised his forehead and said: "I told you not to act rashly, you don't listen to me anymore, and you are going to buy the bald hair and Boye, and you are going to pry Zhang Daojiang, isn't this enough?" What more do you want! ”

Song Fang knew that Song Hong had a lot of eyes and ears, and it was not surprising that he knew these things, so he took half a step forward, clenched his fists, and said, "My family is in danger!" Father, if you don't tell me your plan, I can only use my methods! ”

"Well, what's the use of your method? Bald hair was bought by you? Will Zhang Dao be provoked by you? You even went to buy Fan's little slave, and what kind of beggar did you buy? Any useful news? ”

Song Fang was dumbfounded.

Bald and vague; Zhang Dao will ignore it; Bald didn't even know anything about Fan; The beggar sold some personal affairs, and asked the connector to ask for a lot of money as a reward, but it sounded like this guy was talking nonsense and trivial things.

Song Fang said forcefully: "My method is useless, at least it is better than doing nothing!" ”

Song Hong was really afraid that he would mess around again, so he had no choice but to tell him his calculations, and said, "Huang Nu, have you thought about it?" Why was Xin Er able to be reused by the previous king, and why can he now be trusted by the middle palace? ”

"Because he was clever and pretended to be loyal, he deceived the first king and the middle palace!"

"Hypocrisy, let's say another thing, but 'loyalty', you're right. Huang Nu, Xin Er, so he can have this dynasty because of his 'loyalty', I ask you, what if he is not faithful? ”

Song Fangleng and said, "Disloyalty? ”

"Yes, what if the middle palace finds out that he is actually a traitor, and his loyalty is fake, but he has a counter-will, and he is actually a traitor of the country?"

"Then naturally he will fall out of favor, no, he will not even be able to save his life because of this!"

Zhonggong is trustworthy because he believes in his loyalty, but if Zhonggong can be sure that Xin Er is a great rebel who is plotting to usurp the throne, the previous trust will be like a waste. Not only will Xin Er lose his power because of this, but his life will also be lost!

Song Fang understood what Song Hong meant, his face was happy, and he quickly frowned again, and said, "But how can I make Zhonggong understand that he is actually a traitor?" ”

"Do you remember the story of Zheng Zhuanggong's killing of Gongshu Duan?"

"Father mean?"

"And arrogant, flattering, Xin Er is now weak, with the age of vigor, around the sycophancy, holding the power of a country, you and I will wait for a while, why worry about the ministers in the court are not all sideways, and why worry that he is not unjust? When the time comes, we will collect their faults, mobilize their henchmen, and impeach the court and the county are like snow, whether they are loyal or traitorous, and they will speak out of our mouths and distinguish them in the ears of the middle palace, that is, the day of their death! ”

Song Fang was overjoyed and said, "Father, I said that you must have a plan!" You are an old strategy, Gao Ce, Gao Ce! He also said, "Savor my father's strategy, and ask for worship as a marquis, but it is the same." ”

Song Hong smiled and stroked his beard, and said: "It is good to say that he asked Feng Xiner to be the marquis, but he is too anxious, and his intention is too obvious, which is still different from my policy." ”

The implication is that he is not as wide as he can endure it.

Song Hong taught Song Fang and said, "Huang Nu, your impatient temper must be changed. Since the founding of Dingxi, my Song family has never left the court, and now the temporary setback, what is it? As long as you and I are in the court, as long as our family's foundation is not lost, it will be a matter of time before we regain the power of the court! ”

"Yes."

"The iron coupon negotiation has to be passed today, and the gang of Hulu under Xin Er's account will definitely be loyal to Xin Er, so don't buy it again. Although Zhang Daojiang is young, Zhang Hun is scheming, you are also instigating, and don't waste your efforts in vain, leading the Zhang family to disagree with me in vain. ”

"Yes!"

"Did you ask your eighth brother Song Xian to see Koji Shuang the day before yesterday?"

"Yes. The central direct soldiers of the governor's mansion joined the army, and the confidants of the former officials of Xin Er also moved a little around with the general of the army Linghu Qu on the grounds of military affairs recently. I asked Song Xian to see Koji Shuang, I wanted to fan the flames and see if I could provoke a fight between Koji Shuang and Xin Er. ”

"Koji, outside the court, Koji Shuo outside, Koji Shuang inside, heavy soldiers outside the palm, if you can pick the battle between Koji Shuang and Xiner, it is good. But this little thing will not make much difference. Don't waste your time. Huang Nu, you have to remember that if you don't have the opportunity, you will honestly wait quietly. If you do this kind of nonsense, it will only cause others to be alert to my family. ”

"What about the chance?"

Song Hong said leisurely: "Have you ever seen a tiger and a wolf pounce on a rabbit? ”

Song Fang smiled knowingly.

Winter goes to spring, and opportunity comes in the early spring when the snow melts.
