After only one day of rest in Suzhou, Yang Lin set off the next day and continued south.

Counting that Yang Lin and his party went out of Zhejiang, the people in Jiangnan who had been waiting for them were relieved, at least he didn't stir up the wind and rain in Jiangnan.

Before people could catch their breath, the Duwei Mansion, which had been dormant, took the lead in attacking, Cai Jing in Hangzhou City, who was nearly seventy years old, was invited out of Hangzhou, and more than 1,000 people escorted him to Lingnan.

The Jiangnan gentry fought for a few months for their husbands, and they were invited to Lingnan, where there were not so many wealthy families.

Contrary to Yin Muhong's expectations, Cai Jing was very cooperative, and traveled to Lingnan with great interest along the way, as if he was going to play.

The servants of Cai's mansion were like clouds, taking care of Cai Jing along the way, and everywhere they went, they were like the emperor going out, attracting onlookers.

Cai Jing in the carriage seemed to be asleep, a slight snoring came out, and the concubines in the extravagant and luxurious carriage were relieved, stroking their chests and slowly walking away on their toes.

Hearing that there was no sound around him, Cai Jing's eyelids opened slightly, and there was a trace of unwillingness in his cloudy eyes.

Ruling the world, it's like a dream, when you arrive in Lingnan, who still remembers yourself...

The hatred in Cai Jing's heart was monstrous, he was so forbearing, he deliberately let out the wind to go to Jiangnan and the gentry disappeared, but he didn't expect Yang Lin's vigilance to still not be dissipated.

Yang Wenyuan, this chaotic minister and thief, is so sophisticated at a young age, and he does things absolutely without leaving any gaps.

Outside the car, a red-clothed knight was probing around with a portrait, Cai Jing's concubines were not a hundred but dozens, and some even had to walk with the team under the car.

Cai Jing lifted the curtain and asked, "What is he looking for?" ”

The old capital of Cai's mansion took a sip, looked indignant, and said angrily: "It is said that he is looking for Miss Lingbao's biological mother." ”

Cai Jing's old face flashed with a hint of doubt, and asked, "Lingbao, this kid... Who is her mother? ”

"Master, you forgot, it's Mrs. Li of the Daimyo Mansion, you served as the prefect of the Daimyo Mansion that year, and the daughter of the local Li Yuanwai."

Cai Jing thought about it carefully, but still couldn't remember, then shook his head and said, "If she is here, let them take it away." ”

The seven-rank officials in front of the prime minister's door, and the ordinary five-rank officials have to be respectful when they see the gatekeepers in Cai Jing's mansion, not to mention that they are all in charge of his mansion.

Who has Xiang to this day, people want to take away your Mrs. Ru, and they don't even say hello. The old man who was angry burst into tears and said, "Mrs. Li escaped from the Daimyo's Mansion, and she was in the crowd behind, so the old slave went to look for her." ”

After a while, there was a shout and scolding in the distance, and the cardinal pulled his old capital to the side, and a big-eared melon seed fanned his eyes.

"Straight lady thief, I asked you just now that you didn't know, but now you know? Joke about your grandfather, you old pig and dog are also worthy, I didn't waste so much time for such a long time. ”

After the fight, under the stunned eyes of everyone in Caifu, the red-clothed knight and the soldiers and horses behind him took a woman away.

Cai Jing sighed and lowered the curtain...

Once the power is out of his hands, he can't help himself. He and the official family, and even the Liang Yinxiang, only focused on Bianliang, where would they have thought that outside of Bianliang, this traitor had been raised.

is also self-respecting to support the army, but I didn't expect Yang Wenyuan to enter Bianliang, it was easier than An Lushan to enter Chang'an, I really don't know if the cold official family on the jade floor regretted appointing this person to be the champion in Tongting.

If you go to Lingnan, the relationships you contact privately will all be severed.

Once you stay in Lingnan for too long, your influence will gradually decrease, and in the end, even if someone rebels against Yang Lin, it will not be your turn to play.

In the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no warmth, Wang Hao is the best example, once he loses power and has no protection, it is difficult to save his life.

---

When you arrive in Dali, you can see green vegetation everywhere, covering the mountain roads that have begun to be built.

Duan Miaozhen rarely lifted the curtain and looked out through the curtain, feeling very happy.

Since the last time she was selected to envoy to the Great Song Dynasty to participate in the dedication conference held by the Song court, Duan Miaozhen has not returned for four or five years.

The camellia on the side of the road is blooming very gorgeously, waving in the wind in this cold wind.

Not far away, Fang Qifo led a large group of people and horses to the border of Dali.

The ceremonial band played a joyful tune, led by Fang Qifo, more than 200 officials in Yungui West Road, plus the leaders of the villages who had served early, waited for Yang Lin's car under the colorful silk shed.

Seeing the appearance of the flag, the whining sound of a horn sounded in the welcoming procession, low and majestic, followed by the noise of gongs and drums, firecrackers, Fang Qifo, Liu Zhongwu and others jointly stepped forward to greet them.

Such a spectacular scene made Duan Miaozhen a little uncomfortable, so she quickly covered the curtain of the car and stopped looking.

Yang Lin smiled and hugged her fragrant shoulder, and said, "I'll go out with them to Yangyi Baa City in a while, you don't have to go out in the carriage, I'll let Lu Qian escort the carriage." ”

Duan Miaozhen hummed lightly, lowered her body and tugged at Yang Lin's shirt, tightened the jade belt, and then lifted the curtain.

Yang Lin bowed out of the carriage, the winter in Dali was not very cold, and the air was indescribably clean when the sun was in the sky.

After expanding his chest, Yang Lin saw the team greeting him in the distance, and the armament in Dali was really not bad.

After all, here, there are excellent soldiers everywhere, overthrowing the enslavement of the Tusi lords, I don't know how many ready-made warriors there are, and if you train them casually, they are elite soldiers who can fight well.

Over the years, Dali has been fighting with Tubo, and there is often friction with Jiaozhi in the north, and the various Tusi lords often start fighting without a word.

These people's fighting skills are skilled, but what they lack is only the coordination and experience of the large corps of combat, so Yang Lin left the Fang Qi Buddha to lead the army.

Under Fang La, this kid can ban the training of 150,000 rabble thieves, and his talent is difficult to hide.

Smelling the smell of grass and trees on the side of the road, Yang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said in his heart that Dali himself had finally come.

Everyone greeted them, hugged Yang Lin on a tall horse, and slowly marched towards Yangyi Baa City.

The people along the way, looking curiously, did not know who this person was.

As night fell, the lonely Cochin Palace was even more empty.

In 1009 A.D., the former commander of the Jiaozhi Zuo Qinwei Palace made Li Gongyun seize the throne, and the following year changed the Yuan Shuntian, and the capital was Shenglong, which was for Li Taizu.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Gongyun built Shenglong City, divided the positions of military and political ministers of the central government, reorganized local political institutions, vigorously developed Buddhism, implemented the imperial examination system, and reformed the land and taxation systems.

As the Li Dynasty grew stronger, it could not wait to expand its territory, continuously encroaching on the southern border of the Northern Song Dynasty, plundering land, population, and property.

Song Zhenzong, who signed the alliance of the Yuanyuan, felt that Jiaozhou was a miasma, and if the army was attacked, there would be many casualties, so he did not fight back, and even canonized Li Gongyun, and there was no more righteous unification of the homeland of the Central Plains Dynasty.

In the seventh year of Song Dazhong's auspicious fu, Li Dynasty "Fanghu" Zhang? Because he was punished by Li Chao, he fled to Qinzhou in the Great Song Dynasty. On the pretext of chasing fugitives, the Li Dynasty plundered Ruhongzhai in Qinzhou, killed, burned and looted, and slaughtered tens of thousands of people in the Great Song Dynasty.

In the sixth year of Song Tiansheng, Li Taizu "ordered his sons and son-in-law Shen Chenggui and others to lead the people into the road and plunder the border people", sent troops to invade Siling and other states of the Song Dynasty, and wantonly plundered and destroyed, "plundering cattle and horses, burning houses and returning".

Because this is the border, far away from Bianliang, the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty were unwilling to stand up for these border people, and sat back and watched them be slaughtered by the Li Dynasty again and again, and gradually developed the arrogance and rudeness of Jiaozhi, and the boldness.

Not only did it adopt a policy of forbearance, but it also took the initiative to cede Guangyuan to Jiaozhi, which was very high-spirited.

Under this kind of unlimited plunder and connivance, Jiaozhi became less and less concerned about the Central Plains Dynasty, and Wang Anshi changed the law, and they even invaded the Great Song Dynasty in the name of harming the people, and wanted to make decisions for the people of the Great Song Dynasty.

Li Qiande is the fourth emperor of the Li Dynasty, who has been an emperor for more than 40 years, and is gradually aging, and now he is sick in bed.

Empress Lan Ying personally served Li Qiande with half a cup of ginseng soup, and looked at the emperor's husband, who was still unconscious, and burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, you are seriously ill, the prince is rude, what can my mother and daughter do in the future?"

The candle shadow flickered, and a figure in a green dress quietly entered the main hall, "Give the mother a salute." "Someone came and bowed down.

"Get up, you entered the palace late at night, but what's the news?" Empress Lan Ying sighed softly.

The one kneeling on the ground turned out to be a slender and slender beauty, although she didn't look as graceful as Queen Lan Ying, but her eyebrows were naturally beautiful, and she had a unique flavor.

"Niangniang don't be sad, Your Majesty is blessed with all the blessings, and he will be able to turn the corner and wake up as soon as possible." The beauties of the earth spoke comfortingly.

"I hope so."

"Niangniang, there are people from the Great Song Dynasty outside who ask to see him, saying that he wants to discuss important matters with His Majesty."

Empress Lan Ying's eyes lit up, the prince was so rude, he didn't take himself and others seriously at all, and if he wanted to fight him, he could only seek foreign aid.

I don't know what the identity of this group of Song people is, and what power they have.

Empress Lan Ying had no choice, sighed and said, "Let them in." ”

The group was led to the main hall, and they all knew that the emperor of the Li Dynasty was sick all the year round, and the queen could call the shots in many things.

The first one is Gu Beihai, the younger brother of Gu Nanshan, the head of the Gu family.

Entering the hall, although there was a curtain, when the palace maid opened the curtain and entered, Gu Beihai still saw the queen's face.

Sure enough, it's a stunner, no wonder he sucked Emperor Li dry, Gu Beihai thought of it dirty.

"Queen Mother, we have important matters, and it is best to have an interview with Your Majesty."

The Gu family's influence in Jiaozhi is not small, and they often avoid border officials, not to mention tax evasion, and often buy and sell some prohibited things.

"Your Majesty is unwell, and the palace will tell him."

The upper echelons of the Li Dynasty also spoke Chinese, but with some accents.

Gu Beihai nodded and said, "It's okay, we're here to invite Li Chao's soldiers and horses." ”

Empress Lan Ying's eyes lit up, military power?

......

Yang Yi Baa City, Yang Lin summoned hundreds of officials, ordered them one by one, and began to try out the new policy.

"In the near future, I will personally go to various counties and villages to investigate and see the after-effects. After all, the new policy has just been tried out, and it is difficult to say that it is a perfect law, and it is only right that we need to jointly repair and improve it. ”

Yang Lin held a map and roster in his hand, facing a hundred and ten people, and talked eloquently.

The torches shine everywhere like daylight, and the hearts of the officials are also very excited, Shaozai attaches so much importance to them, and they must behave well, and they may be valued by Shaozai at any time.

Around him, they are all cronies who have been unintentionally promoted, and now none of them are on the rise.

Yang Lin said with a smile: "The trial of the New Deal can be regarded as a bitter battle, and what we have to overcome is all kinds of difficulties and obstacles. This official has always been a hungry soldier, and everyone gathers here to drink tonight, which is considered my waiting. ”

The breeze is blowing, and the moon is white.

Yangyi Baa City, in the old palace of Dali, the lights are bright, and the voices are boiling.

The civil and military generals pushed the cup and changed the lamp, which was regarded as the strong wine before the opening of the new deal, Yang Lin looked at everyone and had some apprehension in his heart.

Fang Qifo stepped forward with a glass of wine and said, "Shaozai, the lower official respects you with a glass." ”

Yang Lin took the wine cup, drank it all, looked at the Fang Qi Buddha in front of him, and asked, "I will hand over the list of civil officials and military generals in Dali and the roster of scholars to me." ”

Fang Qifo nodded yes, Yang Lin's expression moved, and asked: "Dali and Jiaozhi border, Jiaozhi over there... What's going on? ”

I don't know why he asked this question, but Fang Qifo obviously knew that Yang Lin would not be untargeted, could it be that the Jiaozhi people were going to raise troops to invade the territory again, and Shaozai already had the information?

"The lower officials haven't heard that there are any peace movements in Jiaozhi, but they have always had Chen soldiers on the border, and the number should be no less than 50,000."

Cochin's greatest advantage has always been its topography, which is full of jungle miasma, and it is easy and difficult to be attacked by foreign enemies.

If the army were to levy the cochins, many soldiers would have to die just because they were sick.

Yang Lin called Fang Qifo aside and said, "Dali's soldiers, can they fight a tough battle?" ”

Fang Qifo was stunned when he heard this, and wanted to be modest, but when he saw Yang Lin's blazing eyes, he knew that this was not the time to be modest, so he replied: "Anyone can win." ”

He is naturally shy, which is very inconsistent with the arrogant temperament in his name, and with this soft tone, he said the most arrogant sentence, so that Yang Lin didn't know whether to believe it or not.

Fang Qifo saw that Yang Shaozai was suspicious, and hurriedly learned those martial arts, patted his chest and said: "Fighting with your toes is as simple as a good man beating his daughter-in-law." ”

Yang Lin couldn't cry or laugh, looked at this rare ruthless general, patted him on the shoulder and said: "At present, it is still mainly based on the new policy, but I heard from the people of the Governor's Mansion that some people in Jiangnan frequently send people into Jiaozhi, and it is still necessary to properly display troops at the border." ”

Fang Qifo nodded secretly, it turned out that he had really received information, no wonder Shaozai asked this.

However, the war between the two countries is not child's play, and this matter is mostly chasing after the wind, but it has to be guarded against.

As the night deepened, Yang Lin sent someone to send the officials out of the government office and walked back to the bedroom that he had cleaned.

This was originally Duan Miaozhen's boudoir, and when she returned to this place where she grew up since she was a child, Duan Miaozhen was very happy, smiling like a flower, and she was indescribably charming and moving.

Yang Lin saw it through the window, his eyes lit up, and he smiled cruelly: "Miaozhen baby, I'm here!" ”
