I want to be a bitch, but I don't want to set up a torii.

This may be Liu Zhenglong's mentality, he wants to change the dynasty, but he doesn't want to be scolded by the world as a chaotic minister and thief. It's not pretending to be forced, the most important thing is that the Jin army is about to go south, and the Great Song Dynasty can't stand the toss. However, there is one thing that Zhu Wu said is very right, that is, Li Bangyan must not have an accident.

Liu Zhenglong sent carrier pigeons to Yan Qing, asking Yan Qing to strengthen Li Bangyan's protection to ensure that this guy would not be assassinated. On the one hand, he gave Wang Yin a secret order, and after handing over the army to Shi Bao, he asked him to go to the northwest as soon as possible to protect Li Bangyan.

I don't know why, after repeated scrutiny, Liu Zhenglong felt that there would be a black hand behind Jin Guo's actions, although he didn't know what this black hand was, but it was definitely not as simple as it seemed now.

If you want the court to kill yourself, the simplest and most direct thing is to make the officials suspect that the situation in the northwest is out of control and they are suspected of rebellion, so all this is the easiest to assassinate Li Bangyan. At this time, Liu Zhenglong realized where the core of the problem was, the so-called collective attack of civil officials was just a cover, civilian officials had attacked themselves for so many years, and when it would affect the official family.

Kill Li Bangyan, then the other party will definitely send a top master, obviously Yan Qing can't do it, that's why Liu Zhenglong sent Wang Yin over. There are not many people in the world who can successfully assassinate under the protection of Wang Yin.

The assassination of Li Bangyan should not be a nirvana, but if Yelu Nanxian has an accident, it will completely collapse. Thinking of this, Liu Zhenglong was frightened into a cold sweat, and he hurriedly flew a pigeon to send a message to Shui Ayabo, maybe at this time, only this woman can relieve the crisis.

The enemy should be a chain set, it is definitely a link and a link, Liu Zhenglong's most powerful external place is in the northwest, but the biggest weakness is also in the northwest. If Liu Zhenglong himself is in the northwest, nothing is a problem, but the key is that he is not there, and he will collapse directly with a little trouble.

After that night, it was originally said that old age and death would not get along, but Liu Zhenglong broke his promise again, and there was no way to do it, after all, Shui Ayabo was the closest to Yelu Nanxian, and only she could ensure that this Western Xia queen was foolproof.

After arranging the candidates to protect Li Bangyan and Yelu Nanxian, Liu Zhenglong began to consider the problem of Yunzhou, since those people made a move, then they would not simply assassinate, and the target should be Yunzhou.

Sure enough, the DPRK and China did make a move, and after facing the overwhelming rumors, the official family finally began to ask Liang Shicheng, no one knew what the content of the inquiry was, but they knew a little, and the wind direction had changed.

The imperial court ordered Qu Duan to take over the defense of Yunzhou, and the new army in the city was disbanded on the spot. Yue Fei's 30,000 Longwei army was divided into three parts, Yue Fei led the first army back to Jingdong Road and stationed in Lanzhou, Hua Rong led the second army to exterminate Tianhu's rebels, which was controlled by Wang Yu, the commander of Taiyuan Prefecture, and the third army was stationed on Xihe Road and was controlled by Liu Fa.

The mountain rain is coming and the wind is full of buildings, these are not over, Long Xiangjun accepted the reorganization of the imperial court, the only thing that did not move was the water army, otherwise Liu Zhenglong would be alone. Still, once these take shape, the consequences are dire.

The situation in the capital deteriorated even more, the Qin State Mansion (formerly the Chu Palace) had been protected by the Tianlong Forbidden Army, and the four major families were also monitored by the Imperial City Division, and the heads of the four major families took turns to receive the official family, and the connection between the four major families was severed.

At this time, Liu Zhenglong understood why Zhu Wu didn't take the initiative to return to Beijing to take up his post, this move was too timely to retreat into advance, otherwise he would really be uprooted.

Dragon Soul Society, at this time, the Dragon Soul Society really played a role.

Liu Zhenglong's resignation from the overseas propaganda envoy was finally approved, and the new position was that of a scholar of the Guanwen Temple, a lieutenant, and a supervisor of Zhiminqian. This coinage prison was reinstated after a long period of hiatus, as if it was set up specifically for Liu Zhenglong.

The money caster, if someone else is in charge, it is just a small yamen, but it is just the sixth grade, but now Liu Zhenglong is from Qin Guogong, a scholar of the Guanwen Palace, a university scholar, a university scholar, a captain, and a second grade, then everything is different.

After receiving the holy decree, Liu Zhenglong said secretly: "Official, if you give me the money casting supervisor, it will be equivalent to handing over the economic lifeline, maybe you don't know the seriousness of the consequences, and you will know it after Lao Tzu takes office." “

Liu Zhenglong took this coinage very seriously, and while he was preparing to set off, he flew a pigeon to send a message to Liu Ruyan in the capital, asking the Liu family to take responsibility for this quickly, and he must empty the imperial court.

If you don't empty the imperial court, after the Jin army goes south to surround the capital, Song Qinzong's group of losers will also give the imperial court to the Jin people, since that is not as good as emptying yourself. Coming from the modern world, Liu Zhenglong knows too well what it means to mint coins.

Before, the coinage supervisor was under the jurisdiction of the three divisions, but Liu Zhenglong's level was too high, and he directly overrode the three divisions, which means that the coinage supervisor was directly separated and was responsible for coinage, which was the only legal coinage institution in the Great Song Dynasty.

Others may not know what the coinage prison means, but the old man of the Liu family knows that he ordered his nephews to completely control the coinage prison before Liu Zhenglong returns to the capital.

This is the first time that the old man of the Liu family has held a meeting with his son and son-in-law, and there is only one theme, that is, to control the money casting prison and clear the way for Liu Zhenglong's final Wending.

If Old Man Liu had doubts about whether Liu Zhenglong was flying for nine days before, this time he was 100% sure. In the face of the official family's seizure of military power, Liu Zhenglong did not do any resistance, this is not a sign of cowardice, nor is it that he has no strength to resist, but the hidden dragon is in the opposition, waiting for the opportunity to take off.

The Liu family is rich and rivals the country, but the status in the capital has not been very high, this kind of grievance, the children of the Liu family have long been fed up, and everyone went all out to support Liu Zhenglong to finally reach the top. In other fields, the Liu family may not have much say in the matter, but in terms of playing the economy, it far exceeds the Xiang family, the Chai family, and is the richest family in the Great Song Dynasty, of course, this is before Liu Zhenglong was born.

Liu Ruyan didn't know very well, she asked Old Man Liu: "Grandpa, why do you say that controlling the coinage prison is equivalent to clearing the way for Ah Long to reach the top in the end?" ”

"Silly boy, you don't understand, the army in Ah Long's hands has already been formed, and it can't be changed by a holy decree of the imperial court. It's just that he sank under the cover of the holy decree, so as to avoid being suspicious of the imperial court, and the initiative was in the hands of Ah Long, because the imperial court didn't know where he came from. The Great Song Dynasty has always been a mercenary system, how much money you have, you can raise as many soldiers, and the amount of money determines the combat effectiveness of soldiers to a certain extent. Ah Long is only rich and rivals the country, but it is still very difficult to rely on himself and our Liu family's money to feed the elite soldiers who fight against the imperial court. It must also need a lot of money to support it, otherwise it will be difficult to get to the last step. ”

Speaking of this, Old Man Liu took a break, after all, he was old, he said: "The Great Song Dynasty is the richest dynasty in all dynasties, but it is precisely because of the endowment that another problem has been raised, that is, there is less copper, and it cannot maintain the circulation of goods, and there is even less gold and silver. Moreover, neither the Western Xia nor the Liao Kingdom minted money, and they all used the copper coins of the Great Song Dynasty, and the same is true of the current Jin Kingdom. Copper coins are becoming more and more tight, and circulation is becoming more and more problematic. ”

At this time, Liu Ruyan understood, she said: "Grandpa, now Ah Long controls a large number of copper mines, as well as overseas silver mines and gold mines, as long as he obtains the right to mint money, then it is equivalent to controlling the supply of copper coins." The price of goods is all in his hands, the Great Song Dynasty, Western Xia, Jin, Western Regions, Tibet, Dali all have this problem, he can use the price to defeat the other party at any time. ”

"The key is that the gold bank is in the hands of Ah Long, which is equivalent to saying that the financial resources of the whole country are not decided by the imperial court, but by Ah Long. How much a pound of wheat is worth depends on how Ah Long controls it. This is the most fatal, and it can be regarded as the official family digging their own graves, it seems that the Great Song Dynasty is about to run out, and there is no power to return to the sky. ”

The old man of the Liu family is eighty years old, which is considered a long life in that era, he has already poured milk to the realm of no desire and no desire, and now the only hope is to watch Liu Zhenglong finally rule the world.

"Grandpa, but, Ah Long returned to the capital alone, what if the official family wants to imprison him?" Liu Ruyan is now pregnant with Liujia, she is afraid that Liu Zhenglong will have an accident, so she is very worried at this time.

"In the eyes of the officials, Ah Long has handed over the military power, and those armies are either disbanded, replaced, or reorganized, and there is no slightest threat to the imperial court, so there is no need to care too much about it. The Jin army has been picking quarrels and provoking trouble in Hebei, and it is impossible for the official family not to know that if the two countries go to war in the future, then a Liu Zhenglong without military power is still very important to the Great Song Dynasty. The official family is afraid of the invincible army, and they still appreciate Liu Zhenglong in their bones and will not imprison him. ”

Speaking of this, Old Man Liu took Liu Ruyan's hand and said, "Ah Long can take the initiative to return to Beijing to take up his post, which means that he is completely prepared. Yue Fei's 10,000 cavalry were stationed in Shanzhou, which was only a few dozen miles away from the capital, and could be returned at any time. ”

The Liu family is actively planning to control the coinage prison, at this time, the Pan family is not calm, almost everyone knows that at the most critical time, Pan Xu and the other four brothers have returned home, and the children and nephews will also come, and they will begin to actively plan and prepare for the arrival of Liu Zhenglong.

Liu Zhenglong has no military power, and he is safe in the capital as a civilian official, but Pan Xu knows that the crisis is still behind, and that group of people are actively planning, it is definitely not as simple as letting Liu Zhenglong return to Beijing to take office, there is a bigger conspiracy behind this, but what the conspiracy is, no one can say clearly for a while.

Crisis, now Pan Xu knows that the biggest crisis is a personal crisis, not only Liu Zhenglong is dangerous, but in fact, the four major families are in danger. The family is big and the business is big, although most of the property has been transferred, but the person has not left this time is the biggest trouble.

Just when Pan Xu and the others had a headache, Sun Sheng, the Duke of Zhuyun Long, came to visit in person.

In order to avoid the suspicion of the other party, Sun Sheng, the prince of Zhuyun Long, took the initiative to show the token given by Liu Zhenglong and said: "Grandpa Pan, I came today mainly for three things, the first is that the imperial court has recently transported 500,000 Hu rice to Yanshan Mansion, according to reliable information, Guo Yaoshi has taken refuge in the Jin State, and will conquer Yanshan Mansion in the near future, and this grain will eventually fall into the hands of the Jin people, therefore, what my lord means is that the Pan family will take over this matter and transport the grain to Zhaozhou, so that Han Shizhong can find a way to transport the grain to Western Xia." The second thing is that the matter of Guo Yaoshi's betrayal of the Great Song Dynasty and the handing over of Yanshan Mansion to the Jin people must be sent out through the newspaper, and it is implied that the Jin army will go south in a big way, so that a large number of people will panic and go south, and the people of the four major families can take the opportunity to go south. The third and most difficult thing is to instigate King Yun to control the capital's armed forces, so that he can find a way to achieve the throne by force. ”

These three things are not easy to do, but they have to be done if they are not easy to do. However, the simplest and best version of this is the second one, and this one will allow the families of the four major families to evacuate the capital and go to Hangzhou in advance, after all, the mansion has already been built.

After Gongsun Sheng left, Pan Xu sent someone to contact the other three, and everyone was in Que Yunlou, and now there is only where is the safest.

Que Yunlou has long been transformed into a solid foundation, although the previous proprietor Shenji military master Zhu Wu went south to Guangzhou, but the successor Nine-Tailed Turtle is better managed. The current Que Yunlou is definitely not splashed with water, whether it is the Chazi of the Imperial City Division, or the secret guards of the six doors can't enter, the Golden Wolf Guard is even more don't think about it, it is the safest to talk about things here, at least everyone thinks so.

At this time, it began in a special period, and it was not necessarily the head of the family who attended, but whether it was attending, it represented the entire family, just like the old man of the Cao family was seventy or eighty years old, and it was definitely unrealistic to attend.

The representative of the Pan family is Pan Yi, this guy is the brother-in-law of today's son, a courtier, and a low-key person. But shrewd and capable, decisive killing, this is not at all like the three elder brothers, his son Pan Yu is also this kind of character, the only difference is that his son is excellent in martial arts, causing trouble, Lao Tzu's kung fu is commonplace, but he never makes mistakes, as if he is a machine, every step is very calm.

Pan Yi saw that everyone had arrived, so he opened his mouth and said: "When things come to this point, it is no longer a matter of whether Liu Zhenglong will rule the world, but whether our four major families will be cleaned up by the imperial court." The root of this matter is a secret report by Liang Shicheng, as far as we know, Liang Shicheng has been bought by the Golden Wolf Guard, not only to send Liu Zhenglong to the guillotine, but also to completely disintegrate the Great Song Forbidden Army, the core of which is to uproot the four major families, so we must fight back. ”

"Golden Wolf Guard, isn't it the intelligence agency of the Liao State, the Liao State is gone, what kind of storm can they set off." It was Shi Yun who spoke, he was the sister-in-law of the Shi family, this guy always didn't like Liu Zhenglong, after all, the family's decision was to let his sister-in-law, Shi Yunmei, the first beauty of the Shi family, marry Liu Zhenglong, a money-greedy and lustful family, if he liked it, it would be abnormal. However, he still admires Liu Zhenglong since he was a child, and he has always aimed to defeat the other party, but he can't even win his sister, so how can he challenge Liu Zhenglong, the first master of the Great Song Dynasty?

For a long time, there has been a lot of controversy about whether the number one master of the Great Song Dynasty is Lin Lingsu or Wang Yin, and the two have faced off many times without a winner. However, Liu Zhenglong defeated Wang Yin by a slight margin, and after defeating Shui Ayabo, the first master of Western Xia, he was deservedly praised as the first master by the outside world, after all, he was only thirty-two years old, and Wang Yin was fifty-four, and Lin Lingsu was fifty-seven years old.

Gao Jin, this guy is Gao Zhong's father, the younger brother of the head of the family Gao Chen, he said: "The Golden Wolf Guard is the most spineless, after the destruction of the Liao State, he is directly loyal to the enemy Jin State. But the strength of the Golden Wolf Guard, I won't go into detail here, completely crushing the Imperial City Division and the Six Gates. The Golden Wolf Wei didn't know what conditions were offered, so Liang Shicheng chose to betray the court. ”

"All the property of the four major families belongs to Liang Shicheng, this old thief is so greedy for money, he will not refuse this generous condition. Of course, the premise of this is that the official family has long wanted to clean up the four major families, otherwise the current situation would not have arisen. But it's useless to say anything now, now we have to fight back, if we wait for the official family to attack, it's too late. "Pan Yi this guy is deliberately talking nonsense, how can he know what conditions the Golden Wolf Guard offered?

Now the mystery has been revealed, Shadow Three assisted Yan Shun in Western Xia to protect the Empress Dowager Yelu Nanxian and the little emperor, and Shadow Er assisted Yan Qing in the neck to protect and monitor Li Bangyan. And Yingyi has always been in the capital and has been working for the Pan family, specifically to assist Pan Yi. The news that the Golden Wolf Guard bought Liang Shicheng this time is the credit of Ying Yi, and these are not things that Dragon Claw can accomplish.

As for who Eichi is, no one has ever known, it has always been a mysterious existence, and even Pan Yi doesn't know who it is.

The ancestors of the four major families are the founding fathers, who have made great contributions to the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, and have accumulated wealth that is comparable to that of the country for more than 100 years. After all, the inspector of the Imperial City Division mainly does these things, and he has only been pressed by the official family, otherwise he doesn't know what the consequences will be.

"Wealth is the accumulation of our family for more than a hundred years, why should it be handed over to that bastard." Cao Dun became angry all of a sudden, and he said angrily: "Our ancestors opened up territory for the Great Song Dynasty, why should they clean us up, why should they take away our wealth and kill Liang Shicheng." ”

"That's right, kill that gelding, and our Shi family will take action." Shi Yun is the most greedy for money, if he takes away the wealth of the Shi family, he would rather rebel than give up his wealth.

Pan Yi knew that it seemed to be a crowd of emotions, but in fact it was still far from rebellion, and there was no need to fight on this issue. He said: "If you kill Liang Shicheng, the official family will definitely track it down, that is, it is destined to be uprooted, do you think this is a good idea?" ”

Cao Dun said: "Fourth, if you have a lot of ideas, just say it directly, don't go around in circles." ”

After Pan Yi motioned for everyone to be quiet, he said: "If you don't win, you will lose first." Our first step is to move our families to Hangzhou, in that case, we can attack and retreat, and we will not be afraid of Liang Shicheng's Imperial City Division. ”
