Regarding Ye Qing's promotion of Xin Qiji and others, Shi Miyuan somewhat knew his purpose, and even felt that Ye Qing's move was a little late, it stands to reason that after Ye Qing arrived in the Northland, he should start this matter, so as to stabilize his sphere of influence in the Northland.

Ignoring Han Yanxuan's opposition, Shi Miyuan allowed Ye Qing to send officials who promoted nearly 100 people, and the most important of them were Xin Qiji, Shen Mu, Liu Minxue and others.

Naturally, even the dispatch of some officials on Huainan Road was also mixed in, and Shi Miyuan pretended to turn a blind eye and stamped the official seal, and then sealed the file in the Ministry of Officials.

Shi Mi is far clearer than Han Yanxuan, whether it is against or in favor, in fact, in the officialdom of Beidi and Huainan Road, the opinions of the imperial court are actually useless, even if they are opposed, Xin Qiji and others should still be promoted to the rank of knight, and even the treatment will also be promoted.

So instead of doing that kind of thing that doesn't make any sense, it is better to give it to Ye Qing as a favor, after all, now the rise of the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce and the toughness of the water transport trade have created a lot of trouble for the Fujian Chamber of Commerce, and I don't know when it started, even the Qian family has participated in the struggle of this business, so Shi Miyuan at this time, he did not plan to go to Ye Qing to go head-to-head, after all, in this way, it is very likely that Han Yanxuan will be given an opportunity to take advantage of, As a result, Han Yanxuan may extend an olive branch to Ye Qing and let the two join forces to deal with him.

In addition to not opposing Ye Qing's promotion of many officials in the north, in the same way, even Zheng Qingzhi, the secretary of the household department, transferred grain to the north, Shi Miyuan gave the greatest convenience, although in the process it was still difficult for Han Yanzhou, but in the end, a lot of grain was transferred from the household department to the north.

Zheng Qingzhi is a student of Zhu Xi, and even when Zheng Qingzhi was sent to Lin'an, he was recommended by Zhu Xi, so Zhu Xi is no less important to Zheng Qingzhi than recreating his parents.

Naturally, the grain and other goods allocated by the household department will arrive in Jinan Prefecture through Huainan Road, and will eventually be distributed to those people who have not had much harvest during this year's autumn harvest after their fields were destroyed by last year's floods.

In this way, this year's Shandong and other roads do not have to be as stretched in grain as last year, although there can be no surplus grain in the warehouse, but at least this year can be done, no need to spend money to buy grain, or even ...... Even if you spend money to buy food, you can completely use it as military food and grass and send it to Jingzhao Mansion.

Ye Qingyun Zhu Xi and other literati repaired the Confucian Temple, as well as the scene of disaster relief in Qufu at the beginning, which made many literati's faces feel hot and embarrassed, and the relationship between him and Zhu Xi was completely improved, so that Beidi, under the lead of Zhu Xi, actually calmly passed the food crisis.

It can be seen that the positive role that a Zhu Xi can give can benefit the entire Northland, and even have hidden benefits, such as Zheng Qingzhi, the head of the household, who changed his view of the Northland.

With Shandong and other four roads finally relieved Ye Qing after this year's autumn harvest, and after no longer worrying about the lack of food, Ye Qing's full attention began to be placed on Xia Guo, and at the same time, Liu Keshi had already set off to Xia Guo to mediate.

In the Jingzhao Mansion Office, Yu Yunwen pointed on the map: "In the third year of Zhezong, my Great Song Dynasty once set up a capital protection mansion in Huangzhou, but because of the strong resistance of Tibet and other tribes, as well as the fierce eyes of the Xia State, my Great Song Dynasty had to withdraw its troops in the first year of Yasukuni. In the second year of Chongning, my Great Song Dynasty sent a large army into Huangshui to build Huangzhou, and finally in the third year of Chongning, the Longyou Protectorate was set up in Xining Prefecture, until the fourth year of Shaoxing, because the imperial court had no time to take care of the south, so it was occupied by Tibet, and coexisted for 25 years. ”

"So...... If we ignore the owner of this place in Longyou and only care about Xia Guo, it is very likely that we will be jealous of them. So I think it's better to send someone to Xining Prefecture secretly before the first day to inform them of our intentions and that there is no ill will towards them. Yu Yunwen looked at Ye Qing, who was sitting on the chair and pondering, and said.

"If you want to use Helan Mountain and Qilian Mountain as natural barriers, and then resist the invasion of foreign enemies, then Longyou has to be put into our sight." Ye Qing got up, the brush in his hand unceremoniously drew a black circle in the area of Qinghai Lake, and then frowned and continued: "All the territories within the Yellow River must be in hand, and it is by no means as simple as setting up the capital protection mansion, even if it is modeled after the Tang Dynasty, it should be based on Hexi, and the western capital of Jian'an is, not to use the territory under our noses to make the capital protection mansion." ”

"Whether it is mainly in Longyou or Hexi, we can't avoid this city: Lanzhou Mansion." Yu Yunwen pointed to Lanzhou, and then slid westward: "Slightly south to Xining Prefecture, slightly north is the Hexi Corridor, so even if we can't eat all the territory of Xia for the time being, as long as we firmly occupy the Hexi Corridor and stabilize the Longyou Tibetan tribe, then we can still rely on Guanshan, Jishi, and Lanzhou to be invincible, at least within three or five years, no one can defeat us." The most important thing is that the five characters of Longyou Duhufu, as far as our army is concerned, it is the territory of our Great Song Dynasty, not an invasion but a recapture of the lost territory. ”

Ye Qing's ultimate goal is obviously not only a Hexi Corridor or a Xia Kingdom, in fact, when he began to plan the Xia Kingdom, he had already quietly bred greater ambitions in his heart.

Not only the Xia Kingdom, not only the Jin Kingdom, but now he even wants to take back all the territories such as Tibet and the grasslands into the territory of the Song Dynasty, so that the territory of the Chinese nation will be restored to the height of the Tang Dynasty again, and even reach the height reached by the Manchus in the future!

Therefore, while Ye Qing began to plan the Xia Kingdom at this moment, he was already thinking about whether there would be a chance in the future to completely drive Temujin and others out of the Huaxia territory at one time, so that those people had to go west, to harm or take root in that strange land.

Looking at the map on the wall, the vast territory is no longer infinite, but he can make people's ambitions infinite, and it will make people feel like they are addicted to the sense of accomplishment of expanding their territory.

In less than a month after returning to Jingzhao Mansion, Ye Qing also went to the Longcheng Barracks, and even the surroundings of Chang'an City were also turned around by him, including some cities on Hetao Third Road, which were also investigated by him.

Everything he is doing now is out of Ye Qing's reason, but some of it is out of the ambition in his heart, which makes him begin to yearn in his heart that the larger territory can be controlled by him.
