"Uncle Zhang?"

Zhao Ji frowned, this person himself was unheard of, why did he think about coming to see him?

"Your Majesty, it's better to meet this person." Li Gang stood up, looked out of the door and said: "The minister once heard that Zhang Shuye, the governor of Haizhou, is diligent and loves the people, and he is not under the emperor of Renzong!"

Zhao Ji was silent for a moment, but still asked Wang Yu to bring Uncle Zhang up.

In a moment, a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in an official robe, had already walked in.

When Zhao Ji looked at that person, he had wide eyebrows, was seven feet five or six tall, and was upright, and he was suddenly overjoyed, and said, "I don't know what is the important matter for Zhang Aiqing to come?"

When Uncle Zhang heard this, he just shook his head slightly, but he didn't say a word.

Zhao Ji frowned, and when Li Gang saw this, he snorted coldly and said, "Didn't Zhang Zhizhou say that he had something important to meet His Majesty?" Then hurry up, Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, but you don't have time to delay!"

Uncle Zhang sneered, and said with a solemn face: "The minister is speechless now!"

"What does Zhang Aiqing mean by this?" Zhao Ji's face sank slightly, he didn't say anything, why did he leave him speechless?

"Your Majesty, do you know Dong Ping of Dongping Mansion?"

Zhao Ji smiled: "Zhang Aiqing is asking knowingly? Dong Ping contributed to the imperial court a while ago to eliminate the rebels, and I issued an edict to make him the Taishou of Dongping Mansion, don't you know? ”

Zhao Ji is a little funny when he arrives, this Dong Ping has been doing business with himself Jin Yan crossbow and Condor crossbow, and the imperial court has to purchase one hundred pairs of two kinds of crossbow arrows every month, and the materials are directly called from the treasury.

Although only Dong Ping was needed to complete the assembly, Zhao Ji still asked the household department to offer a high price of fifty taels of silver for each plane!

And all this is to stabilize Dong Ping's heart and let him serve the imperial court.

Uncle Zhang shook his head again, and said in a low tone: "Then does Your Majesty know that Dong Ping is a person who is wantonly reforming in Dongping and vainly trying to dominate?!"

As soon as Uncle Zhang's night talk came out, Zhao Ji and Li Gang stood up almost at the same time, with shocked expressions on their faces.

"Zhang Aiqing, where did you hear about this?" Zhao Ji asked with a calm face, "I hope you don't listen to the slander of some villains, Dong Ping is loyal to the imperial court, and a few days ago he was born and died for the imperial court, and exterminated two traitors!"

Uncle Zhang could naturally hear it, and Zhao Ji had already said it very clearly.

Don't come to slander a good person in the end, this person is a loyal minister that I value, otherwise you will do it yourself!

Zhang Shuye just smiled, took a few steps forward, and said, "Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you might as well take a look at this letter."

Zhao Ji frowned, but he still took the letter, opened it and read it, but it was a document sent by the pacification envoy of Jingxi Road.

"This ......" Zhao Ji read the content of the letter, and was stunned for a moment, almost completely unable to believe it!

"Hehe, Your Majesty, this is a document that the minister got from the pacification envoy, you don't doubt it, do you?" Uncle Zhang smiled and said, "Although I don't know why he didn't hand it over to the imperial court in person, this time Dong Ping's private change of the official system of the Great Song Dynasty has been implemented!"

Li Gang saw that Zhao Ji couldn't speak, so he waved his hand and said, "Zhang Zhizhou, you go down first, this matter will be discussed with Your Majesty for a while, you might as well stay in the city for the time being."

"Well, please make a decision as soon as possible, and also protect the peace of the Great Song Dynasty and the people." Uncle Zhang arched his hand at night, turned around and went outside.

Half a day passed, and Zhao Ji still looked at the letter in his hand without saying a word, and seemed to be thinking about something in his eyes.

Li Gang sighed, walked in front of Zhao Ji and said, "Your Majesty, at this time, the only way to remove the scourge of Dong Ping is to pull out the grass and eradicate the roots as soon as possible, so as not to cause endless harm!"

"It's not right!" Zhao Ji shook his head, with a hint of firmness in his tone, "Dong Ping is a person who knows Taoism and has boundless skills, and now he is sincerely working for my Great Song Dynasty, it is impossible for me to cross the river and tear down the bridge because of such a trivial matter!"

"What?" The corners of Li Gang's mouth moved slightly, and his tone trembled and said, "Your Majesty...... Do you think? ”

Zhao Ji nodded: "Yes, it's a big deal to hand over the autonomy of the entire Dongping to Dong Ping, and you have to stabilize this person and let him be used by the Great Song Dynasty!"

The corners of Li Gang's eyes kept twitching, Dong Ping just sent some weapon technology, could it be that the imperial court would indulge him without restrictions in the future?

What if this person gets worse in the future? Do you have to repeat Murong Yanda's play a few times?

In fact, Li Gang can also guess that a while ago, Tong Guan's Western Army and the forbidden army on the border of the Daimyo's Mansion, with the help of the Jinyan crossbow and the Divine Condor crossbow, almost defeated the Western Xia and Liao, and won several rare victories for the Great Emperor.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Ji will let go of the national policy of "promoting literature and suppressing martial arts" set by Emperor Taizu back then, and tie Dong Ping to the big ship of the imperial court no matter what the price is!

I really can't help Zhao Ji not be excited, now there are only a few hundred Jinyan crossbows and Condor crossbows on each of the two fronts, but after a few ambushes, they have fought a few decisive victories.

The Liao people don't care, after all, it is difficult for others to take care of the beginning and the end now, but the Western Xia is different, if they can have an absolute advantage over them, maybe they will soon be able to recover the land of the Hetao.

When the time comes, with the Iron Cavalry Army, why worry that you can't stand alone in the world?

Zhao Ji, who tasted the sweetness, was naturally unwilling to give up this worldly master in his hand, and now that he can come up with so many mysterious things, who knows how unexpected this person will be in the future?

Thinking of this, Li Gang gradually dispelled the idea of persuading Zhao Ji in his heart, and just said: "Your Majesty, it turns out that this is the case, the minister has two suggestions."

Zhao Ji nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"First of all, the pacification envoy of Jingxi Road is slow and modest, and Zhang Shuye is quite loyal and proficient in scheming, so he can be appointed as a pacification envoy to restrain and monitor Dong Ping."

After Li Gang finished speaking, seeing that Zhao Ji had no reaction, he continued: "Moreover, in the end, the Longxiang camp was sent to the area of Jingxi Road to prevent Dong Ping."

"This can't be done!" I don't want Zhao Ji to suddenly start a fire: "Last time, I don't know where the thieves robbed my concubine master, and the Long Xiang camp is now searching for her whereabouts all over the country according to my will, how can it be used!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ji angrily swept the teacup on the table to the ground, stood up and looked at the fragments on the ground, his eyes were full of irrepressible anger.

"Your Majesty is angry!"

Li Gang saw that Zhao Ji was furious, and hurriedly stood up, clasped his hands into fists and said, "Since this is the case, it is up to the saint to decide!"

Zhao Ji exerted a burst of fire before he slowly sat down and said in a low voice, "How is General Duan's affairs?" Is there any new news coming in? ”

"Your Majesty, are you still thinking about Princess Ziyuan?" Li Gang was stunned for a moment, and said in a low tone: "Princess, she has been missing for more than ten years, and everyone says that she has ...... Your Majesty, it's better to mourn and be obedient......"

"Shut up!" Zhao Ji roared angrily, looking at Li Gang with blood-red eyes, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it...... There's no way she's going to abandon me!"

Li Gang sighed heavily, and only after a long time did he say: "There is one more thing, General Duan said that he wants to abandon the view and return to his hometown Dali."

"Let it be."

Half a day passed, Zhao Ji just slumped in his chair, with a hint of deep decadence in his tone.

Li Gang frowned, the corners of his mouth were a little, but he still decided to say it.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that you are in a bad mood, but this matter is a matter of life and death for the Great Song Dynasty!" Li Gang lowered his tone and said in a low tone: "It is rumored that the pacification envoy of Jingxi Road is a faction of the old high-ranking people, and this person is now concealing it and not reporting it, so it is ......."

"What the hell are you trying to say? Arrest Gao Yu and go to prison again? Zhao Ji stood up again, and said in an excited tone: "I think you might as well put all the people who don't like your eyes in prison, you Li Gang alone can say it in this big Song Dynasty!"

After Zhao Ji finished speaking, he strode directly out of the door, ignoring Li Gang behind him.

Li Gang shook his head, sighed heavily, and still called a few henchmen and asked them to investigate in detail all the details of the pacification envoys on Jingxi Road.

A figure flashed behind the screen, but in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared into the imperial study.

On the second day, Li Gang learned the news that the pacification envoy of Jingxi Road had been killed by the enemy in the wild.

At the same time, Wangdu County, a beachside.

"Dong Gongzi, this is my brother-in-law, Master Ye Chunye, who is known as the Sea Immortal."

Li Qingzhao smiled and introduced the nearby ships to Dong Ping, and at the same time brought several people to a man in his thirties.

Dong Ping's eyes quickly swept the nearby sea area, and he was amazed for a moment in his heart, there were dozens of large and small ships of all kinds moored on it.

When he heard Ye Chun's name, Dong Ping was even more shocked.

You know, this is the world's top shipbuilder!
