"Since there is Li Qing in the East Palace, it is much more stable to sleep alone. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhao Huan said with a smile. This sentence is true, he used to be always worried that his secret would be known by others, but now he doesn't have this worry, at least, he knows that the guards outside are protecting him, and his heart is much more stable.

"It's all the responsibility of the last general, and it shouldn't be praised by His Highness." Li Jing hurriedly said: "The last general came this time just to report to His Highness, I am afraid that the last general will have the opportunity to pay attention to the affairs of the East Palace guards in the future, and I ask His Highness for forgiveness." ”

Zhao Huan nodded, and sighed: "I have already heard about my father asking you to deal with the Liangshan thieves, they are all for the country, and they are the same everywhere, but after Li Qing leaves, who should be in charge of the East Palace guard, I don't know if Li Jing can recommend any candidates?" He looked at Li Jing with hopeful eyes, and hoped that Li Jing would elect Zheng Duokang, but he was worried that Li Jing was unwilling, and he couldn't say it clearly, so he could only wait for Li Jing to speak.

"Hu Yanjing is behind the gate, strong in martial arts, loyal to His Royal Highness, you can do it." Li Jing didn't want to think about it, so he recommended Hu Yanjing, not only because of Hu Yanjing's martial arts, but more importantly, he knew that Hu Yanjing was in charge of the East Palace Guard, which was also good for Zhu Lian, as for Zheng Duokang, he had not been generous to that extent.

"Hu Yanjing, well, good, good." Although Zhao Huan was unhappy in his heart, when he thought of the 10,000 army in Li Jing's hands, he immediately took back the dissatisfaction in his heart, but nodded and said: "Father is going to let you recruit 10,000 troops to garrison Lijiazhuang this time, what are you going to do?" ”

"Your Highness wants me to curb the Liangshan bandits?" Li Jing asked rhetorically.

"No, it's not containment, it's elimination, as soon as possible and in the shortest possible time, eliminate the Liangshan bandits." Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "Whether it is the Zhenwei Dart Bureau, or the training envoy of the Xiang Army, etc., it is all in the place, only in the Beijing Division can be regarded as the minister of the court, if you exterminate the Liangshan bandits, it is good to show your merits in front of your father." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Li Jing's heart moved, and he hurriedly thanked him. There was a burst of disdain in his heart, who is Li Jing, even if he has made great contributions, he can only be a petty official in the court, how can those ministers in the court care about themselves, look at the situation just now, just look at the situation just now, whether it is Li Gang or Li Bangyan, they have not put themselves in their eyes.

"Your Highness, the minister wants to go to the north and deal with the Liao State. Western Xia no longer has the share of the minister, so he can only fight the Liao State, and guard the frontier for His Royal Highness in the future, and the minister does not want to stay in Beijing. Li Jing thought for a while and said: "The civil officials in Beijing have many misunderstandings about the ministers, and the ministers don't want to provoke these, and these ministers are intrigued, it is better to take the frontier and kill a few more enemies for His Highness." ”

Zhao Huan was stunned for a moment, and soon the smile on his face became more, in his opinion, Li Jing said a sincere word, if Li Jing stayed in Beijing, these civil officials would probably focus on Li Jing, it is better to go to the north and stay away from the right and wrong of the imperial court, this is what the generals like to do the most.

"Oh! Where are you going? The scope of the northern frontier is very large! Zhao Huan said with a smile.

"Taiyuan." Li Jing thought for a while and said, "The minister wants to seize the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. Li Jing said without thinking. A long time ago, Li Jing knew that he would not get any benefit from occupying Shandong, when his strength was too strong, the imperial court would not allow him to occupy Shandong for a long time, or transfer it, or weaken it, the imperial court would not allow it, and there was a strong army next to the Beijing division. Unless, at that time, the army immediately rebelled, but at that time, it was very difficult to seize the country.

There may be military generals, but it is difficult for civilian officials. Li Jing needed a place that could help him truly accumulate strength and prepare for the seizure of the world in the future. Taiyuan is a mountain and river, the terrain is dangerous, close to Yunzhou, you can attack Hebei and Guanzhong, retreat can be stationed in Shanxi, accumulate strength, and wait until the Jin army goes south, and then wait for the opportunity to seize the Central Plains.

"Taiyuan? That place is not easy to capture, now Taiyuan is still in the hands of the imperial court on the surface, but Tian Hu is occupying the surroundings of Taiyuan, if you want to defend Taiyuan, you must first defeat Tian Hu's army, as well as the Hebei Righteous Army, are you ready? Zhao Huan didn't expect that Li Jing would choose Taiyuan, and his heart moved slightly, but he still said.

"The minister's strength is not enough, but he still understands the strategy of driving away the wolf and devouring the tiger, and when the Liangshan thieves are out of temper, they will surrender them and let them attack Tianhu." Li Jing said with a smile: "Those thieves are a group of criminals, or murder, or robbery, etc., these people themselves are innocent of death, if you can recruit them, and then use these people to attack Tian Hu, Wang Qing, Fang La and others, while weakening them, they can also kill the enemy, and they can also save the strength of my Great Song Dynasty, killing three birds with one stone." ”

"Well, you've got a good idea, you came up with it?" After hearing this, Zhao Huan couldn't help but look at Li Jing with some surprise.

"The minister is just a rough person, where can he think of this, it's just a friend of the minister's side, a Taoist named Gongsun Sheng, who came up with it." Li Jing hurriedly said. In the eyes of Zhao Huan and others, generals only need to charge into battle, and they don't need to know any strategy. If it is the same as the scholars, then these people in power will be afraid.

Sure enough, Zhao Huan nodded and said, "This is an idea, going back to play the emperor's father, killing three birds with one stone, good, good." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Li Jing smiled in his heart, whether he didn't know his details, or underestimated the generals, otherwise, where would he be so easy to speak. Although he knew that it was impossible for Zhao Huan to agree to this matter now, in the future, he might not have the opportunity to go to Taiyuan, only by having his own base can he develop his own power, and Shandong is definitely not a good place.

"Although my father promised 10,000 troops, Li Jiazhuang has a great stake, once the more than 10,000 troops are not enough to deter Liangshan, Li Qing must play the Son of Heaven and increase the troops, as for the grain, grass and equipment, Lone will definitely help you find a way." Zhao Huan sent Li Jing out, and said as he walked.

Li Jing's face moved when he heard this, he glanced at Zhao Huan, and saw that the other party was calm, only a trace of inexplicable color in his eyes, which made Li Jing's heart move, nodded immediately, and said: "The Liangshan thieves have Lu Junyi to join them this time, and the thieves in Shandong and Hebei will definitely join them, and the 10,000 army of the minister believes that it will be insufficient soon." When the time comes, the Son of Heaven will be played, and His Royal Highness will be asked to speak a lot of kind words in front of the officials. ”

"Okay, okay, Li Jing, Gu really didn't misunderstand you." Zhao Huan laughed when he heard this, patted Li Jing's shoulder and said. (To be continued.) )
