Since the first year of Yuanbao, the Western Xia has become a problem in the political arena of the Northern Song Dynasty, which cannot be avoided, although it is said that before, the Western Xia itself was a semi-independent feudal separatist force, but they honestly stayed in the territory, except for asking for rewards, they rarely came out.

In 1038, Yuan Hao established the Western Xia, which became a turning point, a series of system reforms modeled on the many mechanisms of the Northern Song Dynasty, and became an independent country, a monarch of the country, and the first thing he wanted to do was to open up the territory.

Yuan Hao is very strong, in the entire history of Western Xia, and even the entire history of China, he can be regarded as a promising king, especially in military sensitivity, so that he almost single-handedly made Western Xia invincible in the Northern Song Dynasty, in the Liao State, and among the Three Kingdoms.

As for the Western Xia, Yuan Hao was a great monarch of the country, and the Northern Song Dynasty, he was the source of the trouble, from 1038 onwards, the Northern Song Dynasty poured more and more power into the northwest, and in the Qingli year, it even surpassed the Liao State in the north, becoming a huge hidden danger that plagued the Northern Song Dynasty.

This big stone, a time bomb that Ye Qingchen would detonate without knowing when, was moved away in one fell swoop in the fifth year of Qingli.

In fact, when the news of the capture of Xingqing Mansion and the complete destruction of the entire Western Xia reached Bianliang, Tokyo, all the courtiers, including Renzong, were ignorant.

Tens of millions of dollars were spent, hundreds of thousands of casualties were sought, several large-scale summer raids were made, but no progress was made, but it was defeated by the Western Xia again and again, the first battle of Sanchuankou, the first battle of Haoshuichuan, the first battle of Dingchuan Village, three major battles, the first and second battles, the Northern Song Dynasty also wanted to counterattack to win the Western Xia, but a battle was not as good as a battle, when the three wars were over, the Northern Song Dynasty completely lost its temper, was forced to sign the Qingli Peace Talks, and lost the ability to intervene in the battle of Liaoxia.

With Zhao Xin's crossing, he foresaw this result in advance, and dragged the Qingli peace talks not to sign, even if the Western Xia raised many standards for this, the final plan actually made the Northern Song Dynasty center very hot, without any New Year's coin, but would be traded with each other, and then withdraw from several cities.

In all the foreign peace talks of the Northern Song Dynasty, there had never been such a superior condition, and the entire center at that time was inclined to agree.

However, Zhao Xin almost purely used money to buy the delay, and provided more than 7 million yuan of funds to the third division and the entire center, and at the same time, an iron problem solved the iron problem of the entire Northern Song Dynasty, directly saving more than 10 million yuan.

Even if it is directly used to buy, at this time, the war with Western Xia is only at the level of several million guan.

But no one thought that the final harvest would be so wonderful, because there was no contract with Western Xia, and the two sides were in a state of war, and Han Qi's Northwest Army was able to win or lose a battle at a critical moment.

It has been several months since the Battle of Western Xia, but in the center of the Northern Song Dynasty, in the eyes of many Zaifu, it is still so unbelievable, it has plagued the Northern Song Dynasty for decades, and in the past six or seven years, the Western Xia, which has always been the biggest problem in the Northern Song Dynasty, has perished.

Immediately after the fall of the Western Xia, it was the Lingzhou Peace Conference, as if it was from the fall of the Western Xia, the entire Northern Song Dynasty was lucky, thousands of horses of various fine silks, and even the tribute silk drawn by Renzong, but it could be exchanged for thousands of livestock, including 5 million horses and 8 million cattle, these benefits for the Northern Song Dynasty are not what those silks can represent, even if these silks are rare and rare.

Treasures, more of a play role, no matter how precious, can not compare to cattle and horses, steel, grain these basic things, now the two major problems of the Northern Song Dynasty have been solved, the future is bright.

Then, just when everyone thought that the Northwest was going to stop, more news came.

First of all, the Weizhou Cattle and Horse Conference, Han Qi did not hide it, the news about the Cattle and Horse Conference, which spread to the entire northern part of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the increasingly influential trade fair, immediately spread to the center of the Northern Song Dynasty.

After the battle of Xingqing Mansion, especially after the battle of the entire Lingzhou, the Northern Song Dynasty Central Committee was already thinking about the placement of Han Qi.

In just half a year, in fact, the entire Northern Song Dynasty center has undergone significant changes, and Fan Zhongyan's gloomy deposition has become a starting point for the new law school, even if a large number of young talents from the Northern Song Dynasty have gathered around Fan Zhongyan, but unfortunately these people have been implicated.

A few people like Han Qi, Fu Bi, and Ouyang Xiu were protected by Renzong and sent them down in advance, just to eliminate the influence, and when they accumulated enough qualifications, they would be transferred up.

But at this point in time, Han Qi has made such a feat, and if he is an ordinary person, he has already soared into the sky, even if it is Han Qi, it is the same, and it has become a problem not to reward.

How to reward, it is impossible to transfer back, the three envoys, the privy envoys, and even the prime minister, there are people, ordinary officials, and Han Qi's position is not in line, that is, in the Daimyo's Mansion, as well as Sijing, these places are selected, and this discount has caused a large backlash from vested interests.

The new law shook the interests of many conservatives, so it triggered a backlash, Renzong saw this result, maybe the new law is indeed good for the political arena of the Northern Song Dynasty, but it will cut off the connection between the old and new forces, and it will be unstable for controlling the political situation, so Renzong will choose to give up.

In fact, because of Renzong's control, the government quickly stabilized, and at this time, the leader of the reform, Han Qi, was transferred to the center, which would cause huge fluctuations.

At this time, Han Qi's position will not be so good, because of this, Renzong does not express his opinion, but the conservatives below are distressed, this era has not yet developed to the state, after Wang Anshi's reform, opposition for the sake of opposition, at that time, don't care if you have any credit, even if it is a great achievement, it doesn't matter, saying that you don't need you, just don't use you, everything you do has no meaning.

The struggle between the two parties has changed from a struggle of will to a struggle between the party and the masses, and for the sake of the interests of the factions, nothing is taken into account.

In this era, under the control of Renzong, the party struggle is within the scope of control, above the court, even if it is because of the different concepts, there are many gentlemen's parties, and the gentleman is not seen, and the scolded Lu Yijian, who is full of bags, is a tumbler in the court, and now, although the reputation is not very good, it is only in the concept, and there is no rise in the degree of traitor.

When the conservatives had a headache, Han Qi was bold and reckless, and started such a bull and horse conference, why is this why Teng Zijing was impeached just because of the mutual market funds, which were not handled well, Han Qi's sin is greater than Teng Zijing's, isn't this an obvious problem.

The sound of impeachment began to come, even if Han Qi was born as a civil official, he couldn't bear it, even Renzong had a headache, Han Qi had solved the problem of Western Xia, and in the peace with Lingzhou of Liao, he had obtained huge benefits, as long as it was managed well, 13 million large cattle were enough to make the entire northern part of the Northern Song Dynasty obtain huge development and huge benefits, which would make the financial revenue of the entire Northern Song Dynasty rise to a higher level, and at the same time, the ability to resist risks would also rise significantly.

At this time, it is not appropriate to rashly carry out such a move, of course, in Renzong's view, this may be Han Qi's self-blackening move, on the premise of knowing that he cannot return to the center, he first blackened himself, Han Qi is different from Teng Zijing, he has a good experience, plus the credit of the first battle of Xingqing Mansion, even if there are some problems, it is enough to cover up, so the impeachment is more about Han Qi's problems in the rules, and does not directly point to corruption.

However, before the people in the center were ready to confirm Han Qi's mistake, another news came from Lingzhou, it turned out that the reason why Han Qi did this was not to reward the three armies.

In fact, it was also rewarded, but this amount, in the overall number, is only an insignificant part, hundreds of thousands, maybe in the past, it was a very large amount, but in this Lingzhou peace conference, it is really not a big number.

A Weizhou transaction is more than 2,000 guan of income, which is still a very inconspicuous part of the entire peace negotiation, 20 million guan, giving the center the feeling that no matter how much it is spent, after they deal with Han Qi, they can take this money to the center to use.

Although now, the three divisions are rich, but because of the relationship between the northern farmland and water conservancy construction, even the surplus money of the three divisions has been invested, and the investment in this infrastructure construction, even if the investment is huge, others can't say anything.

The center is far away from Lingzhou, but under the urgency of eight hundred miles, it may take two or three days to be able to contact once.

However, for an official of the level of a privy deputy envoy, it is definitely not a day or two to decide his fate, even these conservatives, they think that if they have caught the problem, they need to gradually build up momentum, and get the final approval of Renzong, before they can.

Of course, Renzong is not trying to ruin the future of a young official, even if he wants to suppress Han Qi, he needs to give enough time, and connect with him, and give him a chance to defend himself.

In fact, this rebuke was sent to Han Qi, and after giving Han Qi a chance to defend himself, Han Qi did not hesitate to throw out the Lingzhou water conservancy plan.

It is not a plan that is still on paper, but a huge siege city with a perfect strategy and even a huge siege that has already started, with a total investment of 45 million.

Originally, it was just to give Han Qi a chance and a step, but it blew up such a big pit, not to mention Renzong, who has always protected Han Qi, the conservatives also can't figure it out, 45 million yuan, a one-time investment of funds that exceed the financial benefits of the Northern Song Dynasty for two years, what kind of consequences will this bring, in this way, the Weizhou Conference not only has no problem, but has a great achievement, which these conservatives can't accept.
