Chapter 91: Love is a Light

Thinking in his heart, Zhao Xin asked Liu Yongnian: "How do Aya and the two governments plan to deal with this matter?" Liu Yongnian's expression immediately became extremely exciting: "The official family wants to agree......"

"Huh?" Zhao Xin's eyebrows raised.

"Because ......" Liu Yongnian lowered his head and said: "Hexi Jiedu envoy promised that if the official family promised a reward, then, starting from this year, Hexi is willing to increase the tribute of 1,000 horses every year!" ”

"In addition, the Jiedu envoy is also willing to promise to persuade the ministries to increase the tribute of the coupons and horses!"

Zhao Xin listened, and also smashed his mouth: "It's really a big deal!" ”

The Great Song Dynasty itself lacked good pastures, and the production of its own war horses was very low, so a large number of horses were imported from Siyi every year.

Especially war horses!

Since Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, the number of horses purchased by the Great Song Dynasty every year has always accounted for the majority of foreign trade imports.

Especially now that the war with the Western Thieves is tense, the Great Song Dynasty's thirst for war horses is very high.

Therefore, it is reasonable for horse prices to rise.

However, even the Great Song raised the purchase price of the horses.

However, there are very few places where you can buy good horses.

After Yuan Hao's rebellion, Yinxia's horses were completely cut off.

In fact, the only place in the Great Song Dynasty where a stable supply of horses could be obtained was the Qingtang Tubo of Jiaoluo.

When the seller only has one left, he will naturally sit on the ground and start the price.

The price of Qingtang Domain horses has risen by more than half in three years!

Even so, most of the horses purchased were inferior horses, which could only be used to transport supplies and could not be used in battle.

Today, Kakugara has promised to pay an annual tribute of 1,000 horses.

That's a lot of money!

Because the Gang Horse, also known as the Provincial Horse, was the most joyful and willing thing to do in the Great Song Dynasty's trading methods for purchasing horses from abroad.

The so-called provincial horse trade was a direct transaction between the central government of the Great Song Dynasty and the foreign feudal domains, through the evaluation of grades, the establishment of prices, and then the local conversion into tea, salt, cloth, spices and other materials.

It is economical and affordable, and the quality of the horses can also be guaranteed, and there are no middlemen to make the difference!

In the past few decades, the Great Song Dynasty bought horses in Qinzhou, and the number of horses saved every year was only a few hundred.

Now, Kakuro is willing to increase the amount of 1,000 horses per year.

The herdsmen's mouth was crooked.

Zhao Zhen is even more unreasonable and unmoved!

Because, this not only means that the country can stably get thousands of excellent war horses every year, but also saves hundreds of thousands of dollars in horse purchase expenses.

Not to mention, Kakuro also promised to persuade the ministries to increase the trade volume of bonds and horses.

Although the coupon horse is expensive, the quality is not good.

But it's a horse, and it can be used anyway.

"What about the two mansions?" Zhao Xin asked.

"Of course no one will say yes!" Liu Yongnian said: "Prime Minister Lu Yijian is resolutely opposed, knowing that the Privy Council is like a seal, but it is also impossible to hold it, and Yan Shu, the envoy of the only three divisions, thinks that he can discuss and think of a proper method......

Zhao Xin listened and was happy: "Yan Xianggong is actually willing to discuss?" ”

"As long as you can save money, there is nothing that the three divisions can't discuss!" Liu Yongnian complained: "As far as the three divisions are concerned, as long as they don't lose money, they are willing to do it!" ”

"If there is a profit, they can run faster than wolves!"

His father's old department, Zheng Jiao, is now the judge of the three divisions, and he is extremely familiar with the affairs of the three divisions.

The officials of the three divisions, the biggest item in the evaluation of political performance is the benefit.

If you earn more and lose less, you will be promoted quickly.

Otherwise, that's original sin!

This made Zhao Xin laugh when he heard it.

Compared with the Qing Gao of the two government ministers, the most down-to-earth and fireworks officials of the Great Song Dynasty are the officials of the three divisions.

However, Zhao Xin understands that Yan Shu's so-called 'consultation and discussion' is actually with the mud.

It's nothing more than that the two governments are resolutely refusing, and the three divisions are planning to procrastinate.

What if a miracle comes out?

"Guogong ......" Liu Yongnian looked at Zhao Xin and asked cautiously: "The minister dares to ask what Guogong thinks about this matter?" ”

As soon as Zhao Xin heard it, he understood that in fact, Liu Yongnian was here to test the tone for the two governments and three divisions.

After all, the key to this matter is actually Zhao Xin.

If he agreed, the two governments couldn't stop him.

Is it possible, can the rulers still stop him, the owner of the Spring Fang, from meeting the prince who has entered the court?

As long as he meets with him, he will give Dong Yu empowerment, consecration, and shaving in private, or it will take less than a quarter of an hour.

Moreover, this matter is a matter that cannot be seriously discussed on the table by the two governments.

Since ancient times, the Son of Heaven has guarded Siyi!

The Emperor of China is responsible for guiding, educating, and educating other backward tribes and countries in the whole world.

It's everyone's dad!

However, the Qingtang and Tubo tribes, the Uighur tribes, and even the Yuan Hao in the past, all recognized this.

Now the reason why the Great Song Dynasty resolutely cracked down on and suppressed Yuan Hao's rebellion was because Yuan Hao didn't want to be a son and wanted to be a brother with the Great Song Emperor.

In terms of legal and reasonableness, in fact, Jiaoguoluo's request is reasonable.

It's just that from the Confucian point of view, this thing can't be done.

"In this matter, if you are not careful, I am afraid that you will hurt the hearts of loyal ministers and let the thieves benefit in vain......" Zhao Xin sighed and said: "Dong Yu is Yuan Hao's son-in-law!" ”

"Yes......" Liu Yongnian bowed his head: "Guogong Shengming!" ”

This is also where this matter is troublesome and tricky.

The youngest son of the Hexi Jiedu envoy, although he is only ten years old this year, he already has three wives and four concubines.

The main wife is the daughter of his mother's clan, Qiao, that is, his cousin.

Among his three concubines, one of them is Yuan Hao's own daughter!

Therefore, if you are not careful, you may be the root of the problem.

"But ......" Zhao Xin said again: "Taking the daughter of a traitor of the Great Song Dynasty as a concubine is not something that a loyal minister can do!" ”

"Although, when Yuan Hao married a daughter, he was especially Song Chen...... But now that Yuan Hao has rebelled, why didn't the envoy of Hexi Jiedu express his loyalty to the imperial court, categorically kill the thief girl, and sacrifice his head to Mingzhi? ”

This is to force Jiao Guluo to execute Yuan Hao's daughter, in order to take a stand and draw a clear line, and then we can talk about the current matter.

The essence is the same as Yan Shu, it is also a drag, but it is more positive.

Liu Yongnian listened, and his eyes lit up.

Yuan Hao's daughter actually has nothing to do with it, and it doesn't affect the overall situation.

After all, that Prince Dong Yu is only ten years old now.

But if Jiao Guluo openly kills this Yuan Hao's daughter, it is tantamount to announcing that it is impossible for Qingtang Tubo to be linked with Yuan Hao.

Even, it may force Yuan Hao to respond and wave the Zongge River again.

And this is undoubtedly a beautiful thing for Da Song!

If Jiao Guluo doesn't do it, it can only mean that he is not loyal enough, since the loyalty value is insufficient, why should the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty help him?

"Guogong Shengming!" Liu Yongnian prayed happily and convincingly.

"Hehe......" Zhao Xin smiled.

The idea, he knew, and even if he didn't say it, someone could think of it.

After all, the ancestors in the history books have played similar tricks countless times.

"I've done a good thing!" Zhao Xin thought in his heart.

In his previous life, Dong Yu, the successor of Jiaoluo, was the spokesperson of the Qingqing grassland and the famous green hat king.

Almost all of his wives and concubines were taken by men.

Yuan Hao married his daughter and gave him a son, which was eventually proven to be the seed of his adopted son......
