After the ministers were overjoyed, they all bowed their hands to Zhao Zhen and shouted: "The official family is ...... Shengming"

The voices of the ministers were unprecedentedly neat and unprecedentedly loud.

Zhao Zhen moved his mouth and helped them move away a boulder that they couldn't help it, and they naturally felt that Zhao Zhen was unprecedentedly sacred.

The ministers are secretly rejoicing.

Some of the warriors were happy and some were worried.

The new martial artists such as Zhu Neng, Liu Heng, and Wang Kai are happy, and the old martial artists are sad.

For the new martial artists, Kou Ji is a lucky star, and following Kou Ji can not only eat meat, but also be promoted.

What's more, with Kou Ji leading them, they don't need to be afraid of being harassed by Wenchen, being oppressed by Wenchen, and maybe they can bully Wenchen in turn.

For the old martial artists, Kou Ji is a disaster star.

Wherever Koji goes, the scourge goes.

The yamen he had stayed in the court was harmed by him.

After he finished the plague of the court, he ran out of the Great Song Dynasty to plague it.

He went to Liao, and there was no queen in Liao.

He went to the Western Regions, but the Yellow Head Hui was gone, and the Shazhou Uighurs were gone.

When he went to the northwest, his family was gone, and the Western Xia was gone.

If Kou Ji is in charge of the Privy Council, if they don't do what Kou Ji wants, then they probably won't have to.

In fact, it is not difficult for them to listen to Kou Ji.

The difficulty is that Kou Ji is obviously the kind of minister who takes their interests back to the court, or shares the profits to the people.

In terms of the concept of being officials, they are very different.

From the very beginning, they had conflicts.

Therefore, after Kou Ji took charge of the Privy Council, he would definitely take action against some of the people who drank the blood of soldiers among them.

When the time comes, it will have to be done.

In the case that Cao Wei does not come out and Zhao Zhen does not support them, it is difficult for them to fight Kou Ji.

There was only one person in the hall whose face was pale, and his trembling strands seemed to have been greatly frightened.

This person is a kind of Shiheng.

As soon as Chong Shiheng had the intention of confessing to Zhao Zhen and returning to Bianjing to serve as a privy envoy, he was completely strangled by Zhao Zhen in the cradle.

Now there are people in the positions of privy envoys and deputy privy envoys.

Even if Chong Shiheng returned to Beijing, he would not have a suitable position.

So he couldn't go back to Beijing.

But if he doesn't return to Beijing, he will be roasted on the fire all the time.

Chong Shiheng quietly glanced at Zhao Zhen's location, and saw that Zhao Zhen's eyes were also staring at him.

His heart jumped, and he hurried away.

He knew it.

He rejected Zhao Zhen's kindness, which can be regarded as offending Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen was willing to fold a prime minister of the inner court in, but also to block him from Bianjing City, and also to let him be put on the fire and constantly roasted.

Chong Shiheng felt very uncomfortable.

A moment of greed actually put him in such an embarrassing situation.

He could do nothing but blame himself.

No one cares about the sorrow of Shiheng.

Zhu Neng, Liu Heng and others also followed Shi Li after the ministers gave the salutes: "The official family is ...... Ming."

It seems that they have the intention to suppress the Wenchens, so the voices of Zhu Neng, Liu Heng and others are particularly loud.

The ministers sensed that Zhu Neng, Liu Heng and others were demonstrating to them, and their eyes widened.

Seeing that Wenchen was attacking the new martial artists, the old martial artists could only sigh secretly, arched their hands together, and saluted: "The official family is ...... Shengming."

Although the old martial artists did not want to see Kou Ji as a privy envoy, they also did not want to see the military ministers being suppressed by the civil ministers.

Compared with the harm of Kou Ji, the danger of Wenchen to Wuchen is greater.

Therefore, it is necessary for the old martial artists to speak out and support the new martial arts.

With the addition of the old martial arts, the momentum of the military ministers naturally overshadowed the civil ministers.

The ministers looked ahead to see if the leaders among the ministers would come forward to reprimand them and help them increase their prestige.

It's just that after they saw that the leader was Kou Ji, they could only hang their heads secretly.

Damn it......

Duke Lü, Wang Gong, and Duke Zhang were all absent, and the military ministers were arrogant for a while.

After returning to the court, we will educate them to be human beings.

When the military ministers saw that the civil servants were soft, they felt very happy in their hearts.

In the court of the past, it was all the civil servants who pressed the military ministers.

Now that Wuchen has pressed Wenchen, they naturally feel very happy, as if the resentment that has been pressed on their chests for decades has been dissipated in one day.

"With Kou Privy Counsellor sitting in the Privy Council, I will no longer have to be angry with Wenchen in the future......"

The idea came to the minds of the warriors at the same time.

Kou Ji saw everything in his eyes, but didn't say anything, but said to Zhao Zhen: "Minister's decree, thank you......"

Zhao Zhen nodded slowly and said with a smile: "Everything is over, let's disperse." I have arranged a lot of places to stay in the palace, you Aiqing can go and rest, eat something, and later, come here and participate in the night banquet......"

"......"

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military all gave salutes.

Zhao Zhen got up and left the main hall with his hands behind his back.

After Zhao Zhen left, the Manchu Dynasty also withdrew from the main hall, gathered together in groups of three or five, found some acquaintances, and then found a place to stay arranged by Zhao Zhen and sat in.

Kou Ji was dressed in the costume of a civil official, surrounded by a group of military ministers, which was naturally very dazzling.

Zhu Neng, Liu Heng and others surrounded Kou Ji and arrived in a very large side hall, and after sitting down, they instructed the eunuch Gong E, who was waiting, to prepare wine and food.

The eunuchs and palace ladies were instructed, and naturally they did so very obediently.

A group of new grandfathers and marquis, ordinary eunuchs Gong E can't afford to offend.

If something really happens, the eunuchs and palace ladies are afraid that they will have to fill in their lives.

And Kou Ji and the others will not hurt Fenhao.

When Wang Kai went to prepare the wine and food in the eunuch palace, his eyes were a little red, and he bowed deeply to Kou Ji, "The lower officials can have today, it all depends on your support, please accept the lower officials' worship......"

For Wang Kai, Kou Ji is the noble man in his life.

He wasted years for decades, but he failed to restore the glory of his ancestors.

Following Kou Ji for half a year, he was appreciated by Kou Ji, and he was repeatedly promoted, and he has survived several battles, from a humble palace to a noble grandfather.

It's all a gift from Koji.

His current status is worse than that of his great-grandfather.

But his long-cherished wish to revive the Wang family has been realized.

Naturally, he had to respect Koji.

Kou Jisheng was worshiped by Wang Kai.

He can afford it.

Wang Kai only took half a year to walk the path of other people's lives.

Kou Ji did not fail to help him.

Without Kou Ji's support, Wang Kai may have to waste a long time to achieve today's achievements.

After Kou Ji gave Wang Kai's salute, he smiled and said, "Don't stick to these vulgar rituals in the future...... You can have today's achievements thanks to the gifts of the officials, if you want to worship, you should also worship the officials. ”

Wang Kai was stunned when he heard this, and gave a solemn salute, "Xia Guan understands that Xia Guan can have today, all by the gift of the official family." ”

Wang Kai is now also a feudal official who sits on one side and holds great power.

It is not a good thing for him to worship Kou Ji's grace before Zhao Zhen's gift.

It's easy to get people talking, and it's easy to be targeted.

If you are not politically correct, something big will happen.

After being reminded by Kou Ji, Wang Kai also realized the problem and hurriedly corrected it.

Wang Kai is grateful to Kou Ji, just keep it in his heart, and he doesn't have to say it.

"Sit down...... You're already a county magistrate...... Walking on the streets of Bianjing City, they are all superior figures, somewhat shelf-like...... If you don't have a shelf, others still think you're a bully......"

Kou Ji said with a smile as he instructed Wang Kai to sit down.

Koji's words made everyone in the room laugh.

Zhu Neng said with emotion: "I finally understand why the Qin, Han, and Tang dynasties were able to fight the four Yi and surrender, and all countries came to the court." ”

Wang Kai, Liu Heng and others looked at Zhu Neng in amazement, not understanding the meaning of Zhu Neng's words.

Kou Ji smiled indifferently and did not speak, obviously he understood the deep meaning of Zhu Neng's words.

But he didn't explain, because Zhu Neng himself would explain.

Sure enough, after Zhu Neng whetted everyone's appetite, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Immediately seal the marquis, it's really fascinating." ”

Wang Kai, Liu Heng and others looked stunned.

Zhu Neng stared at Wang Kai and said with a complicated expression: "In just half a year, from a humble and petty official, to a county magistrate, he can only fight on the battlefield." If you move up step by step, I'm afraid you won't be able to rise in your lifetime. ”

Zhu Neng's voice landed, and Wang Kai nodded solemnly.

Because of Zhu Neng's words, he has a deep understanding.

He has been in the office for more than ten years, and has been in Bianjing City for more than ten years, although his official position has changed, his grade has not changed from beginning to end.

Now that he has been out of Beijing for half a year, he is already in a high position.

It can be seen that the four words of the marquis immediately made countless people crazy, which is not unreasonable.

One person is desperate, and three generations of wealth are enough to make all aspiring people in the world crazy.

Kou Ji laughed in a low voice when Zhu Neng and the others expressed their feelings: "There will be more opportunities in the future to establish greater achievements." At that time, you will find that this achievement is nothing. ”

"More opportunities?"

"It's nothing now?!"

Zhu Neng and the others looked at Kou Ji with a look of astonishment.

Good guys, among all the people here, three of them are about to rise to the top, even if they don't establish any merits in the future, but with mixed qualifications, they can also mix to the highest first-class public level.

That's it, Kou Ji still thinks it's a little achievement?

"Now that the Western Xia has been flattened, the Liao State has bowed down, and there is no strong enemy outside the four fields, what chance is there left?"

Zhu Neng shouted loudly.

Kou Ji said with a smile: "Although the Liao State has bowed down, the Liao State has not perished, and we have not taken back all the sixteen states of Yanyun. The peace talks were a last resort.

But if we have the opportunity in the future, we will inevitably have to do a fight with Liao. ”

Zhu Neng frowned and said, "That's just one chance." There are so many of us, how can we get enough credit from Liao? Besides, we have reached the top, and no matter how great our achievements are, there is no room for promotion. ”

Kou Ji smiled: "You only saw the Liao Kingdom, didn't you see anything else?" Don't you want to go to Dali and take a look at the endless amounts of jade, gold, and copper buried under Dali?

Don't you want to go to Cochin and see the rice that crops three times a year, as well as the countless gold, silver, agate, jade, ivory, spices and other things hidden in the deep mountains of Cochin?

There is a big silver mountain in the overseas Japanese country, which is a real silver mountain, not the kind we usually refer to.

On the northeast edge of Liao, there is also Goryeo, which is rich in ginseng, beauty, and countless copper mines.

In the West, there are cities made of gold, huge Buddha statues made of gold, and roads paved with gold.

The world is so big that it is beyond your imagination.

You just have established some merits in my Great Song Dynasty, and you think that your merits have reached the sky?

The merit of benefiting the world can be regarded as the merit of the heavens.

If you can move all the gold, silver and copper underground in Dali back to the Great Song Dynasty, let the people of the Great Song Dynasty follow the light, let the people of the Great Song Dynasty become completely rich, and let the people of the Great Song Dynasty set up an immortal tablet for you, then it is called a meritorious deed.

If you are really capable, occupy Jiaozhi, and drive away those men in Jiaozhi who do not produce and only rely on women to cultivate and support their families, so that the diligent people of the Great Song Dynasty can move over.

Since then, it is very likely that there will be endless food to eat.

When the time comes, the people will worship you as gods and build temples for you, which will be regarded as a meritorious deed to the heavens.

If you really have the ability, move the golden city, golden Buddha statues, and golden roads in the west back to my Great Song Dynasty, so that the world will know my Great Song Dynasty, and let all the nations under the sun respect my Great Song Dynasty, then it will be the work of the heavens.

If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world.

It is understandable that when you are soft-spoken, you seek your own benefit.

But when you are in a high position and hold great power, you should look at the world and work for the benefit of the people of the world. ”

Kou Ji said something ambitious, and Zhu Neng and the others were dumbfounded.

After a long time, there were several spitting sounds.

"I don't care about the people of the world, I just want to know, are there really those gold and copper nuggets buried in the ground that you said? Do the silver mountains, the golden city, the golden Buddha statues, and the golden roads really exist? ”

Zhu Neng stared at Kou Ji without blinking and asked.

Liu Heng hesitated for a moment and nodded, he had the same doubts as Zhu Neng.

Wang Kai stared straight at Kou Ji, his eyes full of words.

Kou Shumi, what's in the north?

What's in the north?

The others looked like the three of them.

Kou Ji sighed in his heart, and he had a feeling of playing the piano with a cow.

It is too difficult to expect Zhu Neng and others to 'establish a heart for heaven and earth, a life for the people, and peace for all generations'.

Sure enough, all the great truths are pale and powerless in the face of interests.

Tell Zhu Neng and others about the truth for a day, and they won't have much reaction.

But you tell them that there is a gold mine outside Xingqing Mansion, and they probably dare to risk resisting the decree to go out and check it.

In the expectant eyes of Zhu Neng and the others, Kou Ji pouted and said, "Naturally, it's true...... With the current status of the few of you, grab a few Fanbang people for interrogation, or send someone to send a letter to the local yamen near Dali and Jiaozhi, and ask them to send someone to investigate, don't you know? ”

There was no such thing as diplomatic immunity.

The Liao State has bowed its head, and the Great Song Dynasty is now the true state of the Celestial Empire.

Among the surrounding neighbors, there are only those who are threatened by the Great Song Dynasty, how can there be any threat to the Great Song Dynasty?

Not to mention catching a few Fanbang people behind his back, even if he kidnapped the Fanbang envoy on the street and dragged him back to the house and beat him up, those Fanbang subjects have to endure it.

Defy?

Don't accept the war?

Anyway, there is an example of Wang Kai immediately becoming a duke, and everyone in the army who has a utilitarian heart is now looking forward to going to war.

But whenever the envoy of the Fanbang did anything wrong in Bianjing City, or did evil to Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen showed his displeasure.

Without the Manchu Dynasty Wenchen to speak, the military ministers would take the lead in standing up and asking Zhao Zhen for help.

For example, when the Wa Kingdom saw that the Great Song Dynasty was strong, in order to pat Zhao Zhen's ass, he offered one or two widows to Zhao Zhen, and the following dialogue would probably appear......

"The Japanese maidens offered by the envoys of the Japanese Kingdom are like ghosts, and they almost didn't scare me to death......"

"What? Since the Wa Kingdom dared to send someone to assassinate the official family? I don't know if I'm alive or dead. Official, give the minister 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the minister will help you pacify the country. ”

"The official, the minister only needs 50,000 ......"

"Official, 3,000 soldiers and horses for the minister is enough to ......"

"Officials, ministers don't want soldiers and horses......"

"I only said that the Japanese girl offered by the Japanese Kingdom scared me, but I didn't say that I wanted to fight the Japanese Kingdom."

"It's not right to scare the officials, it's also their fault, beat them, it's to look up to them."

“……”

All in all, the emergence of a group of new martial artists will naturally bring about the martial style of the Great Song Dynasty.

In the event of another war, among the martial artists, I am afraid that no one will open their mouths to sue for peace.

Xin Wuxun started through the war, and he knew that he could get great benefits from the war, so he would spare no effort to ask for war.

Seeing the rise of the new Wuxun, the old Wuxun naturally felt the pressure, and they needed to consolidate their position through war.

That is, before the war broke out, Wenchen would obstruct it for various reasons.

Because the more wars in the Great Song Dynasty, the more martial arts emerged.

The more martial honors, the higher the status of the military ministers, their status will naturally be affected, and they naturally do not like war.

Zhu Neng and the others didn't know Kou Ji's thoughts, and after hearing Kou Ji's proposal, Zhu Neng muttered: "Can you believe the words of those magistrates?" Can you believe the words of those Fanbang barbarians? ”

Kou Ji glanced at Zhu Neng and said, "If you can't trust them, you can pick one or two henchmen and send them out to have a look." You can write an official document about their food and clothing along the way, hand it to me, and I will give you your approval. ”

When Zhu Neng and the others heard this, their hearts were on fire.

It is good for one's own people to be leaders, and they will be approved at public expense.

Zhu Neng said very heroically: "I have some disabled old departments, I can send them to take a look." ”

Kou Ji's eyes widened suddenly.

As soon as Zhu Neng heard that he could be reimbursed for food and clothing, the people sent out began to follow the rules.

Kou Ji clearly remembered that when Zhu Neng was in Shazhou, there were tens of thousands of people in the old department that he opened his mouth to mention.

After Zhu Neng finished speaking, Liu Heng said with a ashamed face: "I have been in the army for a shallow time, and I haven't accumulated much family funds, and there are only a few hundred people in my family who can get my hands on it." However, if necessary, I can borrow the 10,000 horses sent by Qingtang to my Great Song Dynasty for the time being. ”

Wang Kai said very seriously: "My great-grandfather and grandfather have left me thousands of old soldiers, although they are scattered all over the place, but as long as I need them, they can be used by me." ”

Guo Yi said honestly: "I used to serve in the Xiang Army, and the Xiang Army was really hard. Some of the soldiers had families to take care of, and I couldn't bear to see them suffer with my family, so I secretly let many of them leave the barracks.

If I use them, they can do me a little favor. ”

Zhu Neng said with great disdain: "Don't talk so much nonsense, just say how many people you can produce." ”

Guo Yi smiled dryly, "For decades, their father gave birth to sons, children gave birth to grandchildren, and the three generations of father and son are counted, to say the least, there are thousands of people." ”

Zhu Neng and the others immediately glared.

Zhu Neng sighed: "I didn't expect your family to be so rich. ”

Guo Yi chuckled and said, "I don't have any family background...... It's just a little favor for them, and they're willing to repay the favor......"

Zhu Neng waved his hand, "Okay, okay, in front of your own people, don't talk about those vanities." The people in our hands combined, to say the least, can form a box of troops. Go out and explore the way, it should be no problem. ”

Liu Heng and the others nodded approvingly.

Kou Ji stared at them with a darkened face, "Are you sending someone to explore the way?" You're sending people out to rob them! ”

A bunch of black-hearted guys.

All the things hidden under his hands can be beaten.

But whoever can be left by the martial artists as a family member, that is not a soldier in the army, and that is not a warrior who is selected from one out of ten miles, or even one out of a hundred.

Those soldiers have no hope of being promoted in the army, and if they are unwilling to be ordinary, they will eventually choose to follow Wuxun and become Wuxun's subordinates, or personal soldiers.

Or simply hide and help Wu Xun protect some shady family business.

A group of people can fight, take the sharpest weapons of the Great Song Dynasty and go out to explore the way?

Who believes?

It's right to go out and kill people and sell more goods.

Zhu Neng heard Kou Ji's words, and said with a dry smile: "What you said is not right, we really sent someone to explore the way." We're just afraid that the enemy is too strong, so we just have more men. ”

Kou Ji glared at Zhu Neng fiercely.

"Do you have more men? Privately transferring troops in the territory of my Great Song Dynasty is a felony of killing the head! ”

Zhu Neng pursed his lips and did not speak.

Others smiled dryly.

The reason why Zhu Neng reacted differently from the others was because Zhu Neng knew some of Kou Ji's little secrets.

For example, the Wonsan country established by the Wonsan Ministry.

Kou Jidu sent people out to establish a country, and it was not a big deal for them to send people out to rob them.

Compared to Koji, it's really a drop in the bucket.

After seeing that everyone was silent, Kou Ji reprimanded: "Each person sent out must not exceed ten people. ”

"What can ten people do?"

Guo Yi muttered quietly.

Kou Ji glared at him, and Guo Yi hurriedly shut up.

Kou Ji snorted coldly: "After the investigation is clear, don't stay, return quickly." If you really want to move gold and silver, you have to order it from the official. The official family eats meat, and it is enough for us to drink soup. ”

Zhu Neng and the others were stunned for a moment, and instantly understood Kou Ji's intentions.

As long as the official family's share is kept enough, and the official family is protected, they can run rampant outside.

They have enough money to make up their families, but they are just a kind of people.

If there are officials to protect them, what stands behind them is an army of millions.

No one will be vain.

After reminding Zhu Neng and the others, Kou Ji continued: "You can send someone to keep an eye on this matter, and don't think about doing it for three or two years." You have to help the official family first to digest the territory of Western Xia and the five states obtained from the Liao State. ”

Zhu Neng and the others nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, Kou Ji regained his smile and accompanied them to talk about the world and some interesting things outside the territory.

The reason why Kou Ji threw out Dali, Jiaozhi, Waguo and other places at this time was not to do useless work.

It's something else.

He was preparing for the military system reform that followed.

With the massive amount of money attracted by the territory, Zhu Neng and the others will not be fascinated by the small benefits brought by drinking the blood of soldiers.

Zhu Neng and Liu Heng have the interests of his various business profits, but they will not covet those small money.

But Wang Kai, Guo Yi and others can't say for sure.

So Koji had to give them a vaccination in advance.

Don't say that he and Zhao Zhen innovated the military system, Lao Wuxun has not spoken to oppose it, and his own people have turned against each other first.
