"I'm even happier that you are stupid enough, but you always feel that you can be civil, anbang, martial, and stable to take on the burden of defending the country. If the Great Song Dynasty is missing, anyone can do it, but you can't be without you people to govern the country. ”

"Lord Wen is arrogant and ruthless, disregards human life, likes to engage in a miserable world, must want to taste the taste of military disasters, right?"

"Officialdom now everyone knows that my eldest brother is ashamed to be an official in the same hall as you, and he has long been disheartened and doesn't want to do it. You don't believe that the Song family can't do without my eldest brother, and wave after wave is in a hurry to kill my family. Very good. You, including the Emperor, will see what kind of funny things you will look like in the midst of the military disaster. ”

Wen Zhizhou was suddenly awakened, and he also realized that he was being used by the treacherous Cai Jing.

This is enough to frighten and pain.

Hearing that Zhao Gonglian would take the opportunity to abandon his official position because of this matter, this was what he hoped for in this conspiracy, and it stands to reason that he should be happy, but at this moment, it has become a life-seeking hook, which shocked Wen Zhizhou in despair.

He wasn't too afraid that the Liao army would come in and occupy Song soil.

At that point, he can surrender the city as intelligently and wisely as those famous ministers in history, serve the Liao State loyally, be a good official, and work hard to give full play to his talents and achievements to achieve results, and he can still enjoy wealth and nobility as a big official, and his name will still remain in the annals of history, and his family may not suffer from military disasters. But before, if it was because he gave Zhao Gonglian a reason to resolutely resign and leave, causing the Great Song Dynasty to fall into ruin in a blink of an eye, then he would not be able to wait for the day when the Liao army could surrender.

The first one who couldn't spare him was the emperor, instead of engaging in a ring conspiracy to help the court move down Zhao Gonglian's good things as the emperor wanted.

Is it so important for Zhao Gonglian to sit in Cangbei? Is there really no one to replace?

If it had been before, Wen Zhizhou would never admit this. At least in my heart I don't want to admit it.

There is no first. Wu Wu is the second.

He felt that his talent was extremely high, especially his strategy and means, if he was transferred to Zhao Gonglian's position, even if he couldn't do it better than Zhao Gonglian, at least it wouldn't be worse.

Even if he can't do it himself, there are still so many high-ranking officials and capable ministers in the Manchu Song Dynasty, there will always be someone who is better than Zhao Gonglian, and there will always be someone who can replace Zhao Gonglian and take over the defense of Qingzhou smoothly.

This is his ignorance in the ground.

He didn't know that the emperor wanted to replace Zhao Gonglian, but none of the many powerful and talented officials at the court dared to stand up and take on the work of Qingzhou, which had proved that there was no one in the Great Song Dynasty.

But even if he lacked timely understanding of such a thing as a disgrace to the imperial court, he didn't think so at the moment.

With the unbreakable conspiracy that he racked his brains to prepare, more than a thousand troops participated, but even Zhao Gonglian's ignorant and vulgar young brother couldn't play, how could he compare with a recognized genius like Zhao Gonglian. For the first time, Wen Zhizhou lost confidence in his own ability, and he also had a clear understanding of what was going on with the officers and men in the interior.

Hundreds of carefully selected fierce generals couldn't clean up one of Zhao Laoer's guards.

Hundreds of brave soldiers couldn't deal with Zhao Laoer's guards.

Thousands of fully armed troops were easily trampled to death by the bare-handed grass people who were coaxed, and most of them were killed, and the remaining officers and soldiers were obviously frightened.

How can such an army fight? Not to mention the confrontation with the fierce Liao army iron cavalry.

Since Wen Zhizhou took office, he has not been bent on corruption/corruption.

He is also actively asking for progress, after becoming a state-level leader, his ambition skyrocketed, and he longed to one day be ranked among the cabinet ministers and become a real minister, and he was also ambitious.

He wanted to prove that Zhao Gonglian was not the only one who was capable, and after taking office, he had a very tight grasp of the army and treated the soldiers relatively well.

The Great Song Dynasty is now full of thieves, social security is collapsing day by day, and there are several bandits in Qingzhou, which is not too far away. In this context, the importance of the army is becoming increasingly important. He believed that he would definitely be able to use a soldier who could fight well in the next training, and sooner or later he would be able to make great contributions to the management of the army and show his outstanding political achievements and talents.

He is right to think so, being a governor is also better than those local officials who only know how to desperately make money and enjoy themselves, do not do personnel, and rely on bribing important officials in the DPRK and Central Committee to promote officials after the disaster is over.

It is for this reason that large sums of money are sent to quartermasters to buy sheep and reward the army and boost morale.

As a result, he killed the four innocent lives of the parents of the Wen brothers with the same surname, and indirectly committed evil, and has proved that his imperial subordinates are incompetent, not only do they have no ability to govern the army, but they also lack the ability to grasp the governance of officials and manage the government.

Now Wen Zhizhou is horrified to find that the result of his more efforts to govern the army has only made the army useless, so how bad will the army be for those state capitals who don't care about Qiu Ba at all? The rotten army will have no will to serve the country loyally and bravely, and they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are afraid that even a small group of fierce thieves can't get it, right?

What's even more terrifying is that the Great Song Dynasty has just experienced an unprecedented and terrible monstrous catastrophe, and now is the weakest time, maybe the wind will fall a little stronger.

At this time, if Zhao Gonglian gave up and took his family to hide elsewhere, not to mention the too shocking behavior of defecting to the Western Xia of Liao, he just abandoned his family business and hid and watched the rulers of the Great Song Dynasty toss it with a cold eye, and won the influence of Wen Chenghou, and only superstitious Wen Chenghou's leadership and command ability The military morale of the 100,000 army in Cangbei must first plummet, and it will inevitably quickly affect the morale of the entire Gaoyang Pass Road. The army has no fighting spirit, how can it stop the poor, crazy and anxious Liao army from taking the opportunity to commit again?

The prestige of the Cangzhao family was too high in the Great Song Dynasty, especially in the area of Hebei East Road.

When people there mention the imperial court, the first thing that comes to mind is not the local government, nor the Tokyo court and the emperor, but the Marquis Wencheng.

Zhao Gonglian has never been the supreme head of Gaoyangguan Road, and he has never been qualified to manage the affairs of the entire Hebei East Road, but in the eyes of those people, Marquis Wencheng is the imperial court, which represents the rise and fall of the imperial court and the trends. If even Marquis Wencheng abandoned the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that at least the people of Gaoyangguan Road will lose confidence in the imperial court.

The people were panicked, and the remaining people were afraid that they would immediately abandon their nostalgia for the Song family and rush to join the pirates. In this way, the entire Hebei East Road is afraid that it will completely fester.

I'm afraid there will be more serious consequences.

Marquis Wen Cheng was forced away by the imperial court, and as soon as the news spread all over the world, I was afraid that the world would be in an uproar.

The enemies of the Great Song Dynasty will be happy.

The Song people were afraid that they would be hit with a stick on the head, and people's hearts would fluctuate, and they were afraid that the flagrant rebellion and escape would form a violent storm, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

At that time, the Song dynasty was also troubled by civil strife, and it was very likely that it would easily collapse and change hands, and I was afraid that it would perish without the Liao army.

As for the Western Army, which the Song Dynasty relied on, affected by the grievances of Marquis Wencheng, I am afraid that the loyalty of the generals to the imperial court will be greatly shaken, and it is not uncommon for them to have different hearts.

What if it wasn't affected in the slightest?

Firmly pinned down by the stronger Western Xia army, the Western Army could not draw heavy troops to resist the Liao Army at all, otherwise the Western Army's nest would have to be destroyed by the Xia Army first.

What's worse is that if the Liao army and the Western Xia army join forces to attack, no matter how brave and good the Western army is, it will only perish, how can it save the fate of the Great Song Dynasty.

At that time, Song Jiangshan was the world where alien barbarians galloped and violently, and the disaster of the Five Chaos was staged again. As a Song person, do you want to be better than being an official or a citizen?

The more I thought about it, the more I dared not think about it.

Before, Wen Zhizhou dared to murder Zhao Yue and persecute Zhao Gonglian, that is, he firmly believed that the reputation of Marquis Wencheng was as good as his life, and he took into account the overall situation and paid attention to the national righteousness.

The imperial court, including Emperor Zhao Ji, actually had this kind of mentality.

In other words, Zhao Gonglian's loyalty, righteousness, and integrity are the basis and confidence for the imperial court to dare to press him step by step and finally kill him.

It's not ridiculous.

Because most of the loyal ministers and cadres who made the emperor or powerful ministers unhappy in the past dynasties had this characteristic, they were wantonly killed by the imperial court.

It is said that the emperor values loyalty first and ability second to his courtiers.

In fact, when a courtier is too capable and prestigious, even if he is loyal, the court will not tolerate him.

That is, the sin of high merit and shaking the Lord.

This sin, in the eyes of the emperor, including the famous monarch, is ten million times more serious than being an official and bringing disaster to the country and the people.

Not to mention the blatant rebellion, even if it is a little unsatisfactory, the emperor categorically cannot allow this person to live. This is how the famous Han Dynasty general Zhou Yafu died.

But Wen Zhizhou now knows the highest principles that the children of Cangzhao believe in, and knows that Zhao Gonglian is in order to save his life and protect his family, and he is afraid that he will still suffer no matter how the world suffers, and he will not care about his reputation in the annals of history, then, let alone him, even if the court wants to play Zhao Gonglian to death, he will not be able to play anymore, at least for now, he can only accommodate Zhao Gonglian's requirements.

Then, Zhao Gonglian was angry and asked him about the crime, the court could only follow it, under the holy decree, Cai Jing was not in power, no one could protect him, and the whole family still wanted to live?

Wen Zhizhou was completely anxious, and mustered up the courage to suddenly tremble and said to Zhao Yue: "This official is wrong. ”

This is what he wanted to say to Zhao Yue in his heart, but Zhao Yue has always been fierce and does not give him a chance to admit his mistakes and compromise.

"Huh?"

Zhao Yue snorted coldly, making Wen Zhizhou tremble again.

But Wen Zhizhou also let it go, and if he didn't beg for mercy again, he would even be finished with a full house. The Cangzhao family will never let him go. The court can't let him go.

If the family is dead, then it will be completely beaten and there will be no hope.

In the end, he was a smart person with rich experience in infighting, he immediately realized his mistake, and hurriedly changed his words: "I, I was wrong." I don't deserve to be an official. ”

He knelt down in front of Zhao Yue, "It's because I'm stupid enough not to know the importance of Wen Chenghou." It's true that I don't know it, and I can't do it......"

Kowtow as he spoke.

People, once you soften once you start and start your head, no matter how soft you are, there will be no psychological barriers.

Wen Zhizhou and the master were embarrassed at the moment, in order to get a glimmer of life, at least for the son who would inherit the lineage to have a chance to live, they couldn't care about any face, and blindly begged, saying that as long as Zhao Lao Er was willing to let them go, they could agree to any request, and they would never dare to go against the Cangzhao family in the future.

Under the joyful gaze of Ren Yuan and the others, Zhao Yue pondered for a while before slowly saying, "Do you want to admit punishment and die?" ”

Wen Zhizhou heard the extreme unwillingness in Zhao Laoer's words, and was so frightened that he only kowtowed, and didn't dare to pick up anything, for fear that whatever he said would arouse the murderous intent of this madman.

Just when the two thieves were becoming more and more desperate, Xiao Liu Tong suddenly smiled and said: "Fourth brother, if you want me to see it, it's not impossible to admit punishment." ”

When the two thieves heard this, they were overjoyed, and hurriedly turned their heads and kowtowed to Xiao Liu Tong.

Whether he can get through the disaster he caused depends on the mind of this arrogant master.

What made them ecstatic was that Xiao Liu Tong said again: "Fourth brother, our family is too difficult now, there is no money, no food, no clothes, and there is no way to get money and food, there are still some days left for the autumn harvest." The remaining villagers after the war disaster are too difficult, and they urgently need money and food, so they can't wait for the autumn harvest. If you want me to say, if you kill him, there will be other fools, and you can't finish killing him. Killing this stupid official is only a temporary relief from hatred. It's better to spare his life and let him lose money. ”

In the past, if anyone dared to extort money, Wen Zhizhou would lose his heart and fight to the end.

But at this moment, when he heard this, he was like hearing the sound of heaven, and immediately agreed: "The villain is willing to pay money and accept punishment." Please ask Second Master Zhao to set the number. As long as the villain can do it, the villain vows to do it with all his might. ”

Zhao Yue snorted angrily: "Isn't the disaster in my family all caused by you incompetent and stupid officials? ”

Wen Zhizhou was afraid that Zhao Yue would kill and retaliate, so he was so frightened that he desperately kowtowed and begged: "Second master, second master, please give the lower official a chance to admit his mistake and atone for his crimes." ”

When I was anxious and sad, I finally heard Zhao Lao Er snort angrily again, but he said slowly: "That's it." I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins. ”

Wen Zhizhou and his master were amnesty, and they kowtowed violently to thank the eighteenth generation ancestors of Zhao Yue, and praised the Cangzhao family for their true compassion and benevolence.

But after Xiao Liu Tong wrote a note and threw it to him, Wen Zhizhou was dumbfounded again.

Arrears: Guan, and there are whole parts?

Deadline: Limited to four and a half o'clock this afternoon to Tai'an x place to be received by Zhao Laoer?

"This"

Wen Zhizhou was anxious, plucked up the courage to look up at Zhao Lao Er and said, "Second master, it's not that the lower officials are unwilling." This, that's too much. It can't be done if the lower officials sell their sons and daughters."

I really can't do it.

I can't promise it. I don't dare to fool around and try to get out first, and then play tricks later.

He has been in Tai'an for less than two years.

The money looted last year, in order to thank Cai Jing for vigorously promoting him to be the lord of a state, and to show his loyalty and filial piety, he rectified 100,000 gold beads and sent him to the Birthday Gang.

Lao Cai was very satisfied and was included in the treasury, but the result was that he was all blackmailed by pirates this year.

It's just that Wen Zhizhou didn't know this, and the money looted after the full calculation was only fifty or sixty thousand, which was also a huge amount of money, but it was too far from 180,000 yuan.

In a hurry, how could he get so much money before four o'clock in the afternoon. 2k reading web
