Chapter 667: The Four Capitals of the Country

When Zhao Zhen woke up, it was already three days later, and when he got up groggy, he only felt that his mouth was dry, and his throat was about to smoke, and he sat on the edge of the bed and returned to his brain for a while before his brain began to work, this should be the temporary palace of Swallow City.

Probably heard a movement in the house, a waiter lowered his head and pushed the door in, stood respectfully in front of Zhao Zhen with his washing things, and said, "Official family, please use it." ”

I tried the water temperature and sure enough, it was the hot water I liked, I reached out and took a towel and dipped it into the hot water, the hot towel on my face was the most comfortable, and after a while, Zhao Zhen said, "How many days have I been back?" ”

The chamberlain replied in a low voice: "The official family slept for three days and three nights, and there was not a drop of water!" The imperial meal has been prepared, and Xia Shenzheng specially instructed to use millet porridge to nourish the stomach of the official family......"

Zhao Zhen put down the towel, but he didn't expect the waiter in front of him to be very talkative, nodded slightly, and said, "Bring the millet porridge to the front hall, and I will go by myself." ”

The waiter had to say more, but when he saw Zhao Zhen get up, he stopped talking, went out with his washing things, and did not forget to offer a chicken tongue incense when he left, which is a good product to remove the peculiar smell in the mouth, which is convenient and effective.

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, this inner servant is afraid that Xia Zhu found it from the palace of the Liao Dynasty in Xijin Mansion, it is decent, not worse than the inner servant of the Great Song Dynasty, the chicken tongue fragrance is in the mouth, and the slight fragrance is a little bitter, but this bitter taste is not uncomfortable but makes people sober, and this fragrance spreads out between breaths, making people comfortable.

Zhao Zhen is used to brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth every day, and he is quite satisfied with this new method of removing his breath.

The smell of chicken tongue not only has the effect of removing the odor in the mouth, but also clears the mind, and when he came to the main hall, he felt that the fatigue of two days of sleep was all removed, and he had not slept so comfortably for a long time.

Zhao Zhen, who entered the main hall, saw the two people who didn't want to see the most, Xia Zhu and Bao Zheng were standing in the main hall like a pair of happy fathers and women, the joy on their faces was indescribable, it seems that the good news has been continuous in the past few days, but what makes Zhao Zhen most unhappy is the mountain of music in their arms......

A bowl of millet porridge is really not enough for people who have not eaten a drop of water for three days, but Xia Zhu resolutely did not let Zhao Zhen eat enough: "Your Majesty has not eaten a drop of water for three days, and the stomach can no longer stand it, so it is better to take it step by step." ”

Bao Zheng on the side naturally nodded again and again in response to his words, looking like we are good for you, Zhao Zhen put down the small bowl a little helplessly, he also knew that he shouldn't eat more, but he was too hungry.

"How is Di Qing's army progressing?"

As soon as they talked about military affairs, Xia Zhu and Bao Zheng were full of energy, looked at Zhao Zhen with burning eyes, sorted out the official clothes that were not scattered on their bodies, bowed and said: "Qiguan family, the 100,000 army led by Di Qing has covered up countless Liao people along the way, and now it is west to Datong Mansion!" ”

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, this was in his own expectations, Di Qing was Di Qing after all, he had already set the general direction, as for how to use the army was his strength, he turned his head to Bao Zheng, who was originally a supervisor, and asked, "How is the battle going?" ”

Bao Zheng's old-fashioned face showed a rare smile: "Qi Guan's family, Di Qing's department is Ke Huai'an, Shun Sheng, and then took the important town of Datong Hongzhou in one day, this is Di Qing's front-line performance." ”

Zhao Zhen took the song from the hand of the chamberlain and looked at it, the content on the song was naturally more detailed, Di Qing's song Shu even lost soldiers, wounded soldiers, logistics and so on were all detailed and stated, there was no deception in it, Zhao Zhen as the emperor had read countless songs, and he could see at a glance whether there was exaggeration and falsehood in the songs.

Di Qing's recital is detailed and accurate, and the data is accurate, so that people can see at a glance that there will be no fake, Zhao Zhen nodded and smiled: "Bao Zheng, this Di Qing's recital has caught up with you, the prison army, as a general, it is not easy to write the battle situation by himself!" ”

Bao Zheng and Xia Zhu glanced at each other, they knew that this was the official family saying that they were not, but at this time, they still had to argue with reason: "The official family, the supervision of the army is not just to supervise the amount of grain and grass and the loss of soldiers, but to supervise the generals who go out on the expedition." ”

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I understand what you mean, the prison army is indispensable, but this time it will be exempted, firstly, Di Qing is no better than others, he is from my military academy, he can be regarded as a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, and secondly, the use of soldiers in Datong Mansion is the key to recovering Yanyun, and he naturally has to trust him, so that he can show his strength, thirdly, ...... Do you think that he dared to slack off with such a big credit for recovering Yanyun? ”

Zhao Zhen's words made Xia Zhu and Bao Zheng say yes again and again, that's right, recovering Yanyun is the supreme glory of the Great Song Dynasty, it's too late for others to be cautious, who will slack off or even use this opportunity to rebel, even if he Di Qing dares, his soldiers will not agree!

The sun shines through the carved wooden door of the main hall and sprinkles on the floor tiles, Zhao Zhen can't help but take Xia Zhu and Bao Zheng to walk in the courtyard, although it is not as good as the imperial garden in Tokyo, but it can be regarded as interesting, Swallow City is the center of Fengshengzhou, but it is actually a slightly larger town, but there is a low city wall of one person high on the periphery of the town.

The two people who were walking with Zhao Zhen suddenly heard the words of the official family: "I plan to build a city south of Yehu Ridge and north of Jieyun Ridge, expand outward based on the county seat of Wucheng County, build high walls, set up heavy troops, and town grasslands. ”

Xia Zhu's eyes lit up and said, "Could it be that the official family plans to restore the Dai County of the Qin Dynasty?" This law is very good, the terrain of Daijun is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, and the Yinshan Mountain Range runs through it, which is really a defensive place and a natural danger on the ground! ”

Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "That's right, due to the dangerous terrain, the east of Sui is Zhuo County, and the west belongs to Yanmen County." In the Tang Dynasty, the northern part of the Turkic land was the Sangandu Governorate, and since it is in my hands, it must be let be lost forever...... How about calling the walled city! ”

Castle? Xia Zhu and Bao Zheng were shocked, the meaning of the word wall originally referred to the wall, and later extended to the city, but the city here refers to the city of guards, and it is mostly used in the protection of the city around the capital......

And this place is far from the city of Tokyo, where can I use the name of the castle? Xia Zhu said with a little apprehension: "Official, is the name of Yuancheng inappropriate, after all, there is no Great Song Dynasty in Yanyun." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled: "It's okay, since there is no one, how about choosing a place as Beijing?" The two Qing families are both governors of the court, where do you think it should be the northern capital of my Great Song Dynasty?! ”

Bao Zheng said with an ugly face: "My Great Song Dynasty already has a Beijing Famous Mansion, is it inappropriate for the official family to suddenly choose a place in Yanyun as Beijing?" Have you ever wondered how much this move will affect the changes in the Daimyo's Mansion? ”

Zhao Zhen understands the reason why Bao Zheng's face is ugly, the four capitals of the country are important towns that guard the Quartet, and they cannot be acted rashly, and in the final analysis, they are inseparable from the local development and production interests, and they have long been linked together and inseparable existence.

Now he wants to erase the Dading Mansion in Beijing, one of the four capitals of the Great Song Dynasty, and re-select it in Yanyun, the impact on the local area is not small, no wonder Bao Zheng, who is good at local officials, was the first to oppose it.
