7. Northwest camp field envoy

At this time, Jia Tan stepped forward and suggested to the emperor very tacitly:

Since after the victory of Huating, the foundation of my Tang mastery of Jingyuan and Fenglong has been solidified, so don't delay any longer, and hurry up and continue to expand the fields!

There are also party items that kill each other, and they want to issue an edict to all military towns to assassinate Shi Baojing and the people, in case they kill our Tang people, it will not be good.

"Won't you send a messenger to mediate the oracle?" The Emperor asked.

At this time, Li Mi and the others suddenly said, of course, they wanted to send someone to comfort and appease.

"Let Dou Shen choose a few shrewd imperial histories in the Xiantai, give them scarlet clothes, fill them as envoys, and go to Xuanfu by all roads." The Emperor gave the order.

The so-called "shrewd ears and eyes" actually go to various party departments to spy and collect intelligence.

The rulers took up their pens and recorded what the emperor said on the wat board, and Li Mi said at this time that the five suggestions submitted by Gao Yue earlier did not know whether His Majesty thought it was appropriate or not.

Of course, the emperor had no opinion, and said that Gao Yue's argument was very neutral and won my heart.

Seeing this, Li Mi took the opportunity to say: Originally, he returned to the city of Fu, drove the horses from Zhenwu City into Xia Suiyin, and then arrived in Beijing through Weibei, and now the party Xiang Fan fell in Gyeongju, Youzhou, and Xiazhou to kill and kill, and there was always a great threat to the safety of the trade route.

"Speaking of this, Gao Yue once said to me that between Lingwu and Xiaoguan in Yuanzhou, the middle road is more than 700 miles of desert, and if the boat-making is changed to water transportation, it will save a lot of money, and the grain obtained from the fertile soil of Lingwu Tuntian can be transported to the northwest of Fengfu and Gyeonggi Army, the common people and officials are lacking (1)." At this moment, the emperor remembered the previous summons with Gao Yue.

Li Mi and Jia Tan said that it is true that the Yellow River along the Lingwu coast has a gentle flow and is suitable for water transportation, and that the Xifan entered the Kou before, and this road was taken, as long as a large number of boats were built, along the Hulu River (Weiru River) in Yuanzhou into the Yellow River, to Lingwu City, they could carry grain and military horses, and of course, the Hui merchants could also use this to transport goods to Beijing to sell, and when they went to the Gangzhou, the boats could also transport the silk, linen clothes, and utensils that the Lingwu soldiers lacked, which could not only greatly reduce the burden of land transportation, but also ensure the prosperity of the trade route. At the same time, it can also maintain contact with the towns of Anbei Ting, which are isolated from the outside.

Because of this era, Longyou and Hexi were occupied by Xifan, the Silk Road was blocked, and the merchants in the west mostly diverted to return to the land of Xu, from Lingwu City to Tang, and the envoys of Guo Xin's faction, who had previously stayed alone in Anxi, also came.

The emperor asked, what kind of thing as building a ship to transport water should be Shuofang's six-city water transport envoy?

Li Mi said that although this matter involved Lingwu City, the shipbuilding still had to be done in Yuanzhou.

"Then it belongs to Jia Gong (Jia Tan is now the deputy marshal of Longyou)?" The emperor deliberately said this, and then he asked Jia Tan, how about I send you as the ambassador of the northwest Yingtian and the envoy of the Jingyuan water?

Jia Tan was very humble, saying that as a ruler, my most important duty is to lead hundreds of officials, assist the emperor, discuss the country, it is more appropriate to stay in Beijing, and let the actual person in charge of the local government do the specific work.

"Then I will let Gao Yue be the envoy of the northwest camp field, the envoy of the water transportation of Jingyuan, and the envoy of coinage." The emperor spoke out about this natural decision.

Although the entire Jingyuan is classified as a military town of the Shence battalion, Liu Haibin and Xing Junya are both martial artists, and of course Gao Yue has to carry the burden for this kind of thing.

Li Mi and Jia Tan did not object, saying that this would also allow Gao Yue to exercise his Cao Yun experience.

Liu Congyi next to him couldn't help crying and laughing - such an important mission was actually just for Gao Yue to take to practice, how much did this emperor and Zhongshu Shilang spoil this senior high? Now it is the water transportation of Tongyuan Prefecture and Lingwu, and it seems that Gao Yue will soon be in charge of the great Cao Yun, and even the power of the world.

No wonder the previous Liu Yan and Han Rong both regarded Gao Yue as their successors.

"Surrender or disobedience!"

Of course, Liu Congyi didn't dare to say this.

However, when arranging the deputy of the water transport envoy, the emperor had a strange look on his face.

Jia Tan recommended Wang Shao as Gao Yue's deputy envoy, because Wang Shao had previously lost money to Fengtian in Shangjin Dao, and was strongly recommended by Yan Zhenqing, which the emperor had no objection to.

At the same time, Wan Qian, who was originally transferred to the Imperial History of Shangjin Province, was also sent to be the prefect of the Water Transport Academy, and he was hung with the constitutional title of the Sixth Rank Imperial History.

Of course, the emperor also promised to build a city here, that is, the Feng'an military city - after the autumn of the towns in the eastern part of the country, and Li Mi set up the household money, the treasury of the imperial court was really full of a lot, and now there is financial support in the northwest camp and the city.

Just when several prime ministers thought that the candidates were stable and that this matter could be put into practice, the emperor hesitated and said that he wanted to use more abandoned officials to "real sides", and said that he wanted to give people a chance to serve again.

Li Mi understood as soon as he heard that the emperor was going to take advantage of his "true love" Lu Qi again.

Previously, the prime minister Han Yun, who had resisted the pressure, restarted Bai Zhizhen as the observer envoy of Zhejiang and the envoy of the navy of the town on the grounds of the "last order" of the assassinated prime minister Han Yun, and now he is ready to use Lu Qi.

"What Your Majesty thinks, is it Governor Shi Lu Ziliang?" Li Mi asked himself.

The emperor could only admit it, saying that I would give Lu Qi a chance to atone for his sins, and let Wang Shao be Gao Yue's deputy envoy for water transportation, and Lu Qi would be Gao Yue's deputy envoy for Yingtian, how about it?

"How can there be a reason why he used to be the ruler and now he is the deputy envoy of Yingtian?" Li Mi and several other rulers spoke in unison, and gave the example of Jiang Gongfu, the one after the dismissal of the prime minister, who is still the right concubine of the prince, is cold and idle in the Beijing Division!

The emperor was very heartbroken, but now because of the great victory in Huating, he has added a lot of confidence to speak than before, so he is a little angry and said that I use Lu Qi because Lu Qi has experience in governance, and he does not need Jiang Gongfu, but because Jiang Gongfu is just a minister.

At this time, Zheng Qi, a scholar of Hanlin who was accompanying him in the hall, had a more sad face.

The emperor didn't expect that these words would hurt Zheng Qi's heart, but continued to insist on reusing Lu Qi, and he couldn't hold on to the deacons.

It was still Li Mi's ghost, so he said to the emperor: "If Your Majesty really thinks about Lu Ziliang, it is better to use his son, Lu Qi has a son named Yuanfu, a clear name in Shilin, quite a Lu family style, and is taking the exam in Jingshi and other spring years." ”

This is said very well, Lu Qi's treacherous appearance, I am sorry for his grandfather Lu Huaishen and his father Lu Yi, who died for the court in the Anshi Rebellion, is simply an outlier of the old Lu family's genetic mutation, but his son is probably inherited from one generation to another, and his character is very good. Your Majesty, if you still want to have a good reputation, you might as well use Lu Qi's son Yuanfu to operate the operation, so that Yuanfu will be a scholar this year.

"Okay, okay, I don't ask about the Ministry of Etiquette, please ask the chief to ask (operation)." At this time, the emperor was helpless, and finally accepted Li Mi's suggestion, which could be regarded as a stop.

After nightfall, Emperor Li Shi was still in the Zichen Hall to read the various movements.

Suddenly, Zheng Qi, who was sitting next to him, burst into tears and bowed down to the emperor, and the emperor was shocked and asked Wenming why this is?

"The minister hopes to be discharged from the hospital, to hold the festival for His Majesty, to send an envoy to Yunnan, to make Yunnan turn away from Xifan, and then to be a Tang vassal for me." Zheng Qi gritted his teeth and plucked up the courage to say this decision.

(1) Some readers have previously questioned, can the Yellow River be transported by water? The answer is yes, during the Northern Wei Dynasty, Diao Yong was in Bogulu Town (that is, Lingwu), and had been fated to go to Woye Town, where 500,000 stone grains went to Hetao, and originally planned to take the car, but Diao Yong thought that the roads were deserts and the loss was too great, so he changed to land transportation to water transportation, felled wood in Liupan Mountain, built 200 ships by the Yellow River, and then successfully transported hundreds of thousands of stone grains to Woye Town by boat. Later, in the Tang Dynasty, Gaozu had ordered to set up a boat division in Lingwu and Hetao, during the Yuan Dynasty, Ningxia Zhongwei to Inner Mongolia Hetao this area, water transportation is still prosperous and developed, the Yellow River is unbearable for water transportation, is part of the river section after entering the interior.
