Why did Zhao Guangyi suddenly become so easy to speak?

The officials were puzzled.

When Hubu Shangshu heard this, a bitter gourd face became even more bitter.

Zhao Guangyi pretended not to see him and pretended to be pitiful in front of him.

Zhao Guangyi said: "Since you can't send heavy troops to resist the Liao, you can't let the Liaos go south. Hu Yanzan, I order you to rush to Waqiao Pass immediately, replace Wang Chao as the guard of Waqiao Pass, Wang Chao, and sit in Waqiao Pass.

Wang Chaoxiong was deposed from his post and temporarily resided as a deputy general, and stayed in Waqiaoguan to listen to his use.

Shi Baoxing, I order you to command 50,000 soldiers and horses of the Tianxiong Army and sit in the Flying Fox Pass.

At the same time, he ordered Li Jilong, the guard of Yanmen, to strengthen his defense.

The Zhongshu Sheren drafted an edict and ordered Yang Yansi to cooperate with Li Jilong to defend Yanmen Pass. ”

Zhao Guangyi's words are shocking.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all knew that Zhao Guangyi hated Yang Qi to the core, and now he would actually give an order to Yang Qi.

"Do you have any objections?"

Hu Yanzan, Shi Baoxing, and Zhongshu Sheren hurriedly saluted and said, "The ministers obey the order." ”

Zhao Guangyi coldly glanced at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, "I know what you are thinking, I hate Yang Yansi to the core. However, I just want to use the sharp knife of the Yang family to deal with the Liao people. I just want to see if Yang Yansi has the courage to be used by me. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The officials bowed down and patted the sycophants.

Only the corners of Li Fang's mouth twitched, wanting to speak.

But when he saw Zhao Guangyi's high-spirited appearance, he swallowed back the words on his lips.

Take advantage of Yang Qi?

Scold!

Your Majesty, you are very confident!

If Yang Qi was so easy to use, the three of us would not suffer such a big loss in such a thing as Wang Chao's risking merit.

"One last thing, change the yuan!"

Zhao Guangyi exuded the majesty of the emperor, and said majestically: "From this age onwards, change to Yongxi." This year is the first year of Yongxi. ”

Yongxi?

Baiguan was a little confused.

Yongxi refers to Le Shengping in general.

It means that the world is peaceful.

The previous era name was Taiping Xingguo, and now it has been changed to Yuan Yongxi?

It seems that His Majesty very much hopes that under his governance, the Great Song Dynasty will be peaceful in the world.

Zhao Pu was the first to react, and he got up without hesitation and said, "My Emperor Shengming." ”

So, the hundred officials also shouted together.

……

Three days later.

Zhao Defang's letter and Zhao Guangyi's holy decree arrived in Datong Mansion City one after the other.

Inside the Yang Mansion.

Yang Qi was wearing a wide-sleeved robe, sitting at the desk, looking at Kou Zhun with a smile.

"I guessed right, Zhao Guangyi woke up. It's just that I didn't expect him to wake up at the stall where the envoys of the Liao State entered Bianjing. Originally, I wanted to see how the envoys of the Liao State blackmailed the Great Song Dynasty, but now I can't see it.

What a disappointment......

Kou Zhun glanced at Yang Qi and said angrily: "How can I not see a little disappointment on your face." ”

Yang Qi folded his hands on his chest and chuckled: "I was originally quite disappointed, but I suddenly received two good news, so I was in a good mood again." ”

Kou Zhun looked at Yang Qi suspiciously, and said tentatively, "What good news?" ”

"Zhao Guangyi has changed his yuan!"

Yang Qi had mixed feelings in his heart, and his tone became a little more emotional, "Yongxi ......"

Yongxi, for others, this is just an era name and a beautiful expectation.

Maybe during the Yongxi period, the Great Song Dynasty will really change and Le Shengping.

But this era name has a different taste for Yang Qi.

Because only he knows that with the change of the year name, the footsteps of Zhao Guangyi's Northern Expedition are also approaching.

Yongxi Northern Expedition!

It will be the most tragic battle in Zhao Guangyi's life, and it will also be the most tragic battle.

It can even be said that it was a battle that interrupted the backbone of the Great Song Dynasty.

Because after the Northern Expedition of Yongxi, the Northern Song Dynasty never dared to invade the Liao State again.

You can only be beaten passively.

The recovery of the sixteen states of Yanyun has also become a luxury that can only be thought about in the heart.

The most important thing is that the Yang family died in this battle.

The fate of the Yang family has been changed by Yang Qi, but the upcoming war is not something that Yang Qi can decide.

"Yongxi? And Le Shengping! Other than that, is there any special meaning? ”

Kou Zhun saw that Yang Qi was caught in endless emotion and memories, and asked suspiciously.

Yang Qi came back to his senses, smiled mysteriously, and said, "You'll know when the time comes." ”

"Pretending to be a ghost......

Kou Zhun muttered disdainfully and said, "What's the other good news? Wouldn't it be this kind of pretending to be a ghost? ”

Yang Qi picked up a secret letter from the table, threw it in front of Kou Zhun, and said with a smile: "Look, Zhao Defang sent someone to send it." ”

Kou Zhun frowned, he didn't think that Zhao Defang would have any good news when he looked for Yang Qi.

Zhao Defang was oppressed and looted by Zhao Guangyi, with no power and no wealth, and he was still stared at.

It's no good to have anything to do with him.

Kou Zhun picked up the secret letter and glanced at it casually, his pupils shrank suddenly, as if he had seen some earth-shattering secret.

"This ...... Not really, right? ”

Kou Zhun asked incredulously.

Yang Qi pondered for a moment, "I think...... Eight or nine are inseparable from ten......"

Yang Qi picked up a piece of paper from the table, the one that was sent with the secret letter.

Kou Zhun looked at the mark on it, dumbfounded.

"People in the Great Song Dynasty are looking for it, but they didn't expect it to be in Zhao Defang's hands. If this thing was known to Zhao Guangyi, he would not have been able to kill people and seize treasures in an instant.

Moreover, the meaning of this thing in Lao Zhao's family is completely different from the meaning in your hands. Zhao Defang is willing to give it to you? ”

Yang Qi smiled and said, "It is impossible for Zhao Defang to give me this thing." I know it very well in my heart. I think he wants to hang me with this thing and let me help him ascend to the throne. However, I don't care about this thing, I care more about what he says later......"

"Rippling the Ground?"

Kou Zhun glanced out of the door to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, he approached Yang Qi with a thief's head, and said in an exaggerated voice: "That's the heirloom jade seal...... Qin Shi Huang's heirloom jade seal...... Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity...... I can tell you with certainty that it's absolutely true.

With it, you can rightfully occupy the Central Plains and claim yourself emperor. ”

There is no need for Kou Zhun to remind him, Yang Qi also knows the weight of the jade seal of the country in the hearts of the people.

The jade seal of the country can be said to be a symbol of orthodoxy.

The emperor who has the jade seal of the country and the emperor who does not have the jade seal of the country are completely different things.

The reason why the Great Song Dynasty has been criticized for being unjust, in addition to Zhao Kuangyin bullying the orphans and widows of the Zhou Chai family, another point is that there is no jade seal of the country.

After all, in history, the founding emperor bullied other people's orphans and widows, and Zhao Kuangyin was not the only one.

But he has been criticized because he has not passed on the jade seal.

The big hat of 'winning the country is not right' was fastened on his head, and he didn't even have a chance to refute it.

Seeing that Yang Qi didn't react at all to the jade seal of the country, Kou Zhun said anxiously: "How can you be indifferent? You're not going to be impressed by a prince, are you? Compared with the heirloom jade seal, Wang Jue is a fart. ”

Yang Qi rolled his eyes and said indifferently: "I'm not the emperor, what's the use of passing on the jade seal of the country?" ”

Kou Zhun hated that iron could not become steel and said: "Even if you don't call yourself the emperor, let's take a look." This is a national treasure, who doesn't want to see it. ”

Originally, Yang Qi really had the intention of taking it over and taking a look, but when he saw that Kou Zhun was so enthusiastic, the thoughts in his heart faded.

If he really dares to take the jade seal of the country, Kou Zhun will dare to get a yellow robe to put on him tomorrow.

"Casual ...... ......."

Yang Qi said lightly.

Almost didn't make Kou Zhunqi's nostrils smoke.

Kou Zhun glared at Yang Qi viciously and roared, "Incorrigible! ”

"Do you want to love the jade seal of the country, I came here to tell you. Since the news of Zhao Guangyi's awakening spread to the four northwestern prefectures, the hearts of those officials who had just come from the Great Song Dynasty were a little fluctuating. You hurry up and find a way to solve it. ”

Yang Qihu looked at Kou Zhun suspiciously, and said, "You are the co-leader of the four mansions, and they are all officials under you, this kind of problem should be solved by you, right?" ”

"I'm sick......"

"What disease?"

"If you don't pass on the jade seal, you can't move that kind of disease."

Yang Qi scolded angrily: "Can you make a face, you can also say this kind of excuse?" ”

Kou Zhun said unwillingly again: "That's the heirloom jade seal, you really don't want it?" ”

"I'll find someone to carve two for you tomorrow?"

"It's boring."

Kou Zhun pursed his lips and said, "Originally, I had some ideas, but now I have new ideas. Since Zhao Guangyi has issued an order to you, asking you to help resist the Liao people going south, and wants to use you, then we can also use him. ”

"How?"

Kou Zhun sneered: "There is a way, the emperor is not bad for hungry soldiers. Let us send troops, then you have to give us food and grass. Send people to ask for food and pay with great fanfare, and sit on this matter.

We took the money and grain of the imperial court and helped the imperial court to fight, and that is the people of the imperial court.

If those subordinates dare to have different intentions, they can punish them in the name of the court.

If we take the name of righteousness, I will not believe or convince them. ”

Yang Qi gave a thumbs up, "High!" It's really high! Kou Xieling is mighty. ”

Kou Zhun couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Yang Qi asked again: "Then what do you think, after we get the food and salary of the imperial court, how much troops should be sent?" How to fight? ”

"At least 100,000, more the merrier. Anyway, it is the food and salary of the imperial court, so naturally the more the better. ”

Kou Zhun said unceremoniously: "As for how to fight...... Of course, the farther you hide, the better, as long as the Liao people don't enter the Great Song Dynasty, our people can avoid it. Anyway, we can't do it......"

Halfway through his words, Kou Zhun couldn't go on.

Because he saw Yang Qi looking at him with a smile.

Obviously, what he said was exactly what Yang Qi was thinking in his heart.

Kou Zhun glared at Yang Qi and said, "Since you have a decision in your heart, why are you still asking me?" ”

Yang Qi didn't answer Kou Zhun's question, but asked, "Then who do you think is appropriate to send to the imperial court to ask for grain and grass?" ”

Kou Zhun weighed it in his heart, and then said with a sneer: "Lu Duan! ”

"Hahaha......"

Yang Qi laughed out loud.

Kou Zhun's face turned black at once.

"You're playing tricks on me again."

Seeing that Kou Zhun's face was full of anger, Yang Qi hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to play you, but although I had a plan in my heart, I haven't made up my mind yet, so I'll look for you for details."

I didn't expect your thoughts to coincide with mine. ”

"Humph!"

Kou Zhun snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction.

Yang Qi said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the imperial court sent this group of people, but it solved our big trouble. Now we don't have to worry about running out of people. ”

"It's not enough, the current division of the powers of officials under the four northwestern governments is not detailed enough and not sound enough. The management at the top is not sound enough, and it can even be said that it is loose. Many things are decided by you, and once you are gone, the government affairs of the entire four northwestern provinces will be paralyzed.

Moreover, officials at all levels report on their affairs, which is very messy.

The most important thing is that there is no restraint between officials, and each one has an astonishing amount of autonomy and power.

It's fine in the short term, but if it goes on for so long, there will be a lot of problems. ”

Kou Zhun was deeply worried about the official system of the four northwestern provinces.

Yang Qi looked at Kou Zhun with a smile, "You want to encourage me to open a government and build a government, it is best to directly establish three provinces and six departments?" ”

Kou Zhun said calmly: "This is inevitable, now you have the land of the Four Prefectures, which is far bigger than the original Northern Han Dynasty." It is enough to build a country, not to mention the establishment of three provinces and six ministries.

Today's four provinces in the northwest are like a plate of scattered sand, and each province is basically independent of each other.

It's been a long time since I stepped down as the prefect of Fuxing Prefecture, and there are officials from Fuxing Prefecture who have sent me a recital, don't you think it's scary? ”

Kou Zhun said it calmly, but Yang Qi always felt that Kou Zhun had bad intentions.

However, what Kou Zhun said is indeed a problem.

As more and more people under his management worked, the territory in his hands became bigger and bigger.

There will be more and more problems.

When manpower is poor.

It is impossible for Yang Qi to take everything on himself, and it is impossible for him to pile up on Kou Zhun in one go.

Then, relatively speaking, a sound bureaucracy is very important.

It is impossible for Yang Qi to use policies such as democracy and republic.

In this era of feudal dynasties everywhere, what kind of democratic republic is purely looking for death.

Everyone is feudal or slavery, and you are the only one who engages in democracy.

So special?

Then everyone will kill you together.

Reform is a long-term process, and only by following the times step by step will we not be eliminated by the times.

Once the steps are big, it is easy to pull the eggs.

Therefore, Yang Qi can only learn from the official system of the feudal dynasty.

The official system of the Great Song Dynasty had great drawbacks.

The cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty was relatively sound.

There is a disadvantage that it is easy for literati to sit big, and the military generals who are pressed have no status.

The Military Aircraft Pavilion established by Yang Qi just made up for this.

With a general direction in his mind, Yang Qi said to Kou Zhun: "You don't have to worry about the official system of the four prefectures in the northwest, this issue has been considered since I arrived in the northwest." Now that I have some clues, I will compile it as soon as possible.

When the time comes, you will come back with me to see it again. ”

Kou Zhun nodded, "It's good if you know it in your heart." ”

"Then I'll go to Lu Duan first and discuss the details of asking for grain and grass."

Kou Zhun dropped this sentence, arched his hand and left the Yang Mansion.

Yang Qi sat alone in the study, muttering the word 'Yongxi' in his mouth, not knowing what he was thinking.
