Lu Zongdao left satisfied, he was full of confidence in Zhao Zhen's mentality of investigating to the end, his students didn't understand? As long as the official family says something, it will definitely be done, and the character of not being able to rub sand is what Lu Zongdao is most satisfied with Zhao Zhen.

Since the official family has made a guarantee, there is nothing to worry about, the rest of the things have nothing to do with Lu Zongdao, each performing his own duties is the rule of the Great Song Dynasty officialdom, he is a counselor, not a dispatch official, and the court has its own capable ministers who will help the officials share their worries, and just do their own things.

Sancai took small steps to send Lu Zongdao, the boss, away, in his opinion, the existence of Lu Zongdao, the official is meaningless at all, the official's mind is meticulous, and everything is thoughtful, so do you need to be reminded by this old man?

When he arrived at the Zichen Palace, he found that the official family wrote what Lu Zongdao said on the screen word for word, which was the habit of the official family for many years, as long as the courtiers said useful words, he would write them neatly on the screen.

Picking up the inkstone carefully, Sancai walked to Zhao Zhen's side and bowed down and said: "Why should the official family be so serious, you have already thought of countermeasures for the affairs of Zhending Mansion, and you don't need to write an essay if Lu participates in politics, right?" ”

Zhao Zhen dipped the tip of his pen in ink and said: "What do you know, although Master Lu's words sound meaningless, but the meaning is very important, how many courtiers have seen him stay in the performance today?" He did not come to inquire on behalf of himself, but on behalf of the courtiers, maybe others would not ask him, but at least he knew the details and my attitude, the trust between the monarch and the ministers was extraordinary, and it was the right way to not doubt each other! ”

Sancai sneered: "The slave doesn't understand the twists and turns, only the trust in the official family!" ”

"If you had known, I would have sent you out of the palace to the first emperor to guard the emperor's mausoleum!"

After Zhao Zhen finished writing the last word on the screen, he walked to the imperial case, picked up a piece of yellow paper and said, "You hand my prefix to the center, and let the center send the text to all the yamen of the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Sancai bowed down and walked backwards.

Zhao Zhen looked at the gloomy sky in the northwest and frowned slightly, the early arrival of the Xiaoice River exposed many shortcomings on the border of the Great Song Dynasty, and the heavy snow arrived in October, no wonder the Liao people would try their best to smuggle grain and grass from the Great Song Dynasty.

I am afraid that this year's strange cold will have a great impact on the Khitan people who live on nomadism in the north, and the grain output of the sixteen states of Yanyun will definitely not be enough for the Liao people, so it will pay attention to the grain of the Great Song Dynasty.

It's good to come!

Zhao Zhen doesn't care about that bit of food, catching the moths on Hebei West Road is what he wants to do, to be honest, the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty is not ready to use troops against the Liao State, even the defense is stretched, if the Liao people are forced by the Xiaoice River this time, they can't survive this cold winter, and the Great Song will face a group of crazy Khitans.

Just got rid of the hungry wolf of the party, the treasury of the Great Song Dynasty could no longer withstand another big war, and the Hebei Forbidden Army was fortunate to be able to guard the country.

Compared with the relationship with the party, the relationship between the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty has been stable for decades, and neither side wants to tear their faces.

The Liao Dynasty is different from the Great Song Dynasty, it is based on the rule of the aristocracy, and the role of scholars in stabilizing the society is far less than that of the Great Song Dynasty, such a regime based on the rule of the aristocracy is extremely easy to produce power struggles, even as the emperor Yelu Longxu has to worry about the nobles of the Liao Dynasty snatching his rights, Liao Shizong Yelu Ruan was killed by Yelu Cha and others like a sharp sword hanging on the head of each Liao emperor.

Knowing himself and knowing that he is invincible, Zhao Zhen has carefully studied the politics of the Liao Dynasty, from his chaotic official position and unclear jurisdiction, he can see the instability of the Liao regime, and even the emperor has to worry about the power in his hands.

Zhao Zhen picked up the tea bowl and smiled slightly, reached out to pick up the brush and dipped it in vermilion, and circled the five capitals of the Liao Dynasty on the map of the Liao Kingdom.

The Liao Dynasty successively formed the five-capital system. The five capitals are Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo, Xijin Mansion in Nanjing, and Datong Mansion in Xijing. This is different from the four capitals of the Great Song Dynasty, and the five capitals of the Liao Dynasty were all government offices.

In the final analysis, the Liao Dynasty was a nomadic people, and its nomadic life of uncertain migration and carriages and horses determined the emperor's hunting system, and its political center was not in the capital, but in the bowl. All major political issues are decided at any time and are the administrative center for handling government affairs.

Due to the constraints of climate and natural conditions, each has a place to make bowls at all times, and there are five capitals.

Among them, the most important place is also the ancestral court of the Khitan people, which is Shangjing Linhuang Mansion.

Such a political system led to the Liao Dynasty emperor had to patrol at four o'clock every year, and the time spent in Shangjing was very small, and the emperor moved everywhere, and the officials in the court had to accompany him, although the rule of the local government was strengthened, but the management and operation of the whole country was far less stable than that of the Great Song Dynasty.

Thousands of years of history tell Zhao Zhen that only a stable regime, stick to a corner of the capital, in order to make the country enter a stable state, this is the experience left by the ancients, existence is reasonable, Zhao Zhen does not think that thousands of years of Han wisdom is useless, but this wisdom makes the Han civilization permanent.

No matter how wise the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu is, he can't find himself in a huge circle of mistakes, and even if he finds out, he is powerless to change it, and the nobles of the Liao State will never allow him to stay in Shangjing all the time.

Zhao Zhen smiled and wrote four familiar and unfamiliar words on the corner of the map of Liao: one country, two systems.

In order to better rule the Han people in the land of smoke and clouds, Liao Taizong Yelu Deguang adopted the rule method of "ruling according to customs", and implemented a bicameral system of dividing the Han and Khitan people, and the north and south officials. And changed Youzhou to Nanjing and Yunzhou to Xijing.

This method is of course very good, but the disadvantages are also very great, the political thinking between the north and the south is completely different, one is the nomadic thinking, the other is the Han people's agricultural national thinking, the two are contradictory.

The Liao people are not all fools, of course, they found the problem, Liao Shizong appointed the virtuous minister Yelu Wuqing, carried out a series of reforms, merged the southern officials and the northern officials during the Liao Taizong, established the North and South Privy Councils, and abolished the southern and northern kings. Later, the North and South Privy Councils merged to form a single Privy Council. Liao Shizong's reforms brought the Liao Dynasty from the form of tribal alliances into an era of centralization.

But this is only a change that treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and the laws of the Liao Dynasty are governed by customs, and different laws are used in various places. Ethnic discrimination has always existed, and today's Yelu Longxu Khitan law has also begun to use Han law to judge.

This made Zhao Zhen vigilant, it reflected that the status of the Han people in the Liao Dynasty began to rise, which was conducive to the unity of the Liao State, which was not a good signal in Zhao Zhen's view, but what made Zhao Zhen pleased was that the punishment of the Liao Dynasty was heavier, and the emperor often killed people at will, lawless, especially the famous tyrant Liao Muzong Yelujing.

Even Yelu Longxu, who is a generation of British lords, is still like this, although he reuses Hanchen, it does not mean that he does not discriminate against Han people!

Now that the sixteen states of Yanyun bear most of the taxes of the Liao Dynasty, and they are heavy taxes, the arrival of the Xiaoice River should make the Han people in the land of Yanyun even more unhappy, right?

Zhao Zhen is not gloating, but in a rational analysis, where there is oppression, there is resistance.

The more ruthless the Liao Dynasty's oppression of Yanyun, the stronger the seeds of resistance, Zhao Zhen did not believe that the flame of resistance buried in the hearts of the Han people would be extinguished, if the Liao people treated the Han people equally, it might be better, but unfortunately the words of non-my race must be different are not only applicable here in the Han people, but also in the hearts of the Liao people.

The Han people are an extremely strange race, and Zhao Zhen, who is familiar with the history of the upper and lower 5,000 years, knows that if the ruler can give the Han people a good living environment, food and clothing, then the Han people are the most obedient people, and if they are bullied to death......

I'm sorry that the Han people didn't agree!

The original obedient people, the good people, will be transformed into the most tyrannical flood beasts, hideous, roaring, overthrowing the ruler and eating not even the dregs.

Zhao Zhen smiled and wrote lightly on the map of the land of Yanyun: "People who don't want to be slaves ......"
