Chapter 289: Qin Hui's Scheme

The crowd was full of wine and food, and finally dispersed.

Zhang Jun still had an excited and rampant expression on his face, in his opinion, with so many troops mobilized this time, and with the help of the Jurchens, there would be no problem in eliminating Zhao Chen.

"Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen, you are just a virtuous and incompetent villain, you just have a little bit of conspiracy! But in the face of absolute power, all intrigues and intrigues are not worth mentioning! You are still trying to get the world, which is ridiculous to the extreme! Is there a world you can hope for? You just own only Guanshan, Sichuan and Shu, how can you compete with His Majesty who owns Jiangnan and the Jurchen who owns the Central Plains? Haha, I seem to have seen you trampled under my feet, it's so nice to think about it! Zhang Jun laughed.

Two years ago, his Zhangjia army was wiped out, but in the past two years, he has selected 80,000 soldiers from the rebel army and formed the Zhangjia Army again! It's just that the current Zhang Jiajun doesn't have any combat experience, and its strength is much worse than before!

Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu also came out of the City Lord's Mansion, and the two of them had already come to the city wall of Chang'an at this moment.

The country is picturesque in the distance, but neither of them is in a very good mood.

"Your Majesty has actually united with Liu Yu and the Jurchens, it stands to reason that they are all our enemies! Now the two emperors are still being imprisoned by the Jurchens, which is a great shame for our Han people! How can we unite with them? Liang Hongyu was a little angry.

"Your Majesty, there is no way to do this." Han Shizhong said.

"If Your Majesty hadn't been crowned emperor in the first place, how good would it be?" Liang Hongyu said suddenly.

"Don't say such things! Since Your Majesty has been proclaimed emperor, he is the lord of the world! It is absolutely impossible for us to have two hearts for Your Majesty! Han Shizhong said.

"I see! It's just that what His Majesty did really chilled me. Liang Hongyu smiled bitterly.

Han Shizhong stood there silent, but after a long time, he also let out a long sigh.

At this moment, in the distant south of the Yangtze River, the weather here is also unusually cold.

In the royal palace of Lin'an City, it is magnificent. After five years of construction, this place is no longer under the original Kaifeng Palace. More than a dozen palace chambers stand there, and there are four huge gardens around the palace chambers. In the cold winter season, the plum blossoms here, and the fragrance of flowers floats, which is unusually moving. In the palace, the number of eunuchs alone reached 2,000 people, and these were all eunuchs who were re-recruited after Zhao Gou came to Lin'an. As for the number of palace maids, it has also exceeded more than 3,000 people, and over the years, the number of concubines canonized by Zhao Gou has also exceeded 200.

The Funing Hall was unusually warm, and Zhao Gou was sitting there at the moment, with several concubines surrounding him.

Below, countless palace maids are dancing. These palace maids were unusually exposed, and Zhao Gou's eyes showed the brilliance of lust from time to time. In just a few years, Zhao Gou has also degenerated. In the past, when he was only a vassal king, he was still working hard, and he also knew how to recruit heroes from all over the world, but since he became the emperor, his status is supreme, no one restricts him, and he can do whatever he wants, and he is no longer the same person he used to be.

Zhao Chen is diligent in state affairs every day, and there are not a few days of time to rest well in a year, while he, Zhao Gou, spends his days drinking and enjoying himself every day. is also the emperor, and the difference is unusually large.

"Your Majesty, Lord Qin Hui and Lord Qin ask to see you!" At this time, a eunuch came to Zhao Gou's side and said.

"Let him in!" Zhao Gou frowned and said.

He waved his hand, and suddenly those concubines and palace maids all retreated, and the Funing Hall finally returned to quiet.

After a while, a minister who looked unusually "upright" entered the Funing Palace, and it was Qin Hui.

"Come on, take a seat for Lord Qin!" Zhao said.

At that moment, someone brought a chair, and Qin Hui sat down.

"Qin Aiqing, what are you doing here today?" Zhao said.

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world! We are about to fight with Emperor Xuanwu, and we must fight for this popular heart. Qin Hui said.

"Oh? Popular Hearts? Hmph, it's just a bunch of untouchables, why care what they think! We now have a million righteous army in Henan, 300,000 righteous troops in Hebei, and 300,000 troops in Liu Yu, we have so many soldiers and horses, there is no problem in eliminating Zhao Chen's kid, why care about the people's hearts? Zhao Gou said coldly.

"Your Majesty, Emperor Xuanwu was the crown prince before all, and he still has the heirloom jade seal in his hand, so many people in Jiangnan have their hearts set on him, which is extremely unfavorable to Your Majesty's rule! Your Majesty, there are some things that we can do or do them! We still can't give up some things to buy the hearts and minds of the people. Qin Hui said.

"Tell me, how to buy the hearts of the people?" Zhao thought for a moment and said.

Zhao Gou is actually quite smart, and he also has high political wisdom. In the past year, there has been endless fighting between the DPRK and China, mainly Qin Hui, Yang Shi, Huang Qianshan, Wang Boyan and others. It wasn't until two months ago that Qin Hui and Yang Shi achieved a complete victory, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan were dismissed from office, Qin Hui became the prime minister, and Yang Shi became the deputy prime minister. Zhao Gou felt that this Qin Hui also had some skills, and he wanted to see what moves Qin Hui would make.

"Your Majesty, the number of concubines and palace maids in this palace is too much, and the people are talking about it, Your Majesty should dismiss some concubines and palace maids." Qin Hui said.

"This ......" Zhao Gou frowned, he had been content with pleasure all these years, and let him dismiss the concubines and palace maids, he was definitely unwilling in his heart.

"Your Majesty only needs to issue an order, saying that it is to dismiss 2,000 concubines and palace maids! When the time comes, when this will reach the people, those people will naturally praise Your Majesty! As for whether His Majesty really dismissed those people, the people don't know! Qin Hui said.

"Okay, this is a good idea, I'm right!" Zhao said.

"Your Majesty, the people have always said that you inherited the unification as a vassal king, it seems that the name is not right, and we must change this." Qin Hui said.

"Humph! In order to save the world, I had to do this! Those untouchables, even saying that my name is not right, is really a crime that deserves death! Zhao said.

"Your Majesty, we can forge a decree! Let's just say that when the two emperors left Kaifeng, they left a holy decree! They think that the crown prince is really young, and in this troubled times, the crown prince is not enough to shoulder the heavy responsibility, so they ordered Your Majesty to inherit the throne as King Kang, what do you think? Qin Hui said.

"Ugh!" Zhao Gou was stunned, not because the idea was too bad, but because the idea was too good!

Over the years, he himself has been very angry because of his identity, and now Qin Hui has solved this problem immediately after just two months of becoming the prime minister, which is really powerful.

"We can also fake the holy decree, saying that the two emperors ordered the crown prince to be your vassal! If he doesn't agree, the whole world will fight him! Qin Hui said again.

"Yes, that's great." Zhao Gou was overjoyed.

"Your Majesty, you should also issue an order, saying that we are going north to fight the Jurchens in order to regain the hearts of the people." Qin Hui said.

"But we are obviously fighting against that lowly boy of Zhao Chen." Zhao said.

"These are just your majesty's methods! The common people are eager to recover the Central Plains, so let's comfort them! Qin Hui said with a smile.

"Not bad." Zhao Gou nodded.

"Your Majesty, in fact, there are many ways to buy the hearts of the people, and Weichen will tell you one by one." Qin Hui said.

At the moment, he said slowly, it was all some means to buy people's hearts. Zhao Gou was surprised and delighted after hearing this, thinking that this Qin Hui was really a great talent, far better than Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan before, and he was also better than Zong Ze that day. What Zong Ze said made him unhappy in his heart, but what Qin Hui said made him extremely happy.

"Your Majesty, the Confucians in Jiangnan are extremely powerful, and Weichen has promised Yang Shi to let Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi enter the Temple of Literature and accept the Spring and Autumn Sacrifice! This is also a means to regain the heart of Confucianism! If Your Majesty does this, the great Confucians in Jiangnan will definitely support Your Majesty! After a long time, Qin Hui said again.

"This ......," Zhao Gou frowned slightly.

Confucius and Confucius's disciples are worshiped in the Temple of Literature, and if Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi are also added to the Temple of Literature, I am afraid that it will not be appropriate. These two people were also from the Song Dynasty, and there was never an emperor of this dynasty who worshipped the ministers of this dynasty as saints.

"Your Majesty, in order to buy people's hearts, you have to do this." Qin Hui said.

"I still need to think about this matter!" Zhao said.

"Your Majesty, in the future, the imperial examination must be added to the works of Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi." Qin Hui said again.

"That's fine!" Zhao said.

"If this matter spreads, those great Confucians will definitely be extremely excited!" Qin Hui said with a smile.

Zhao Gou smiled and nodded.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing that is very important!" Qin Hui said again.

"What's the matter?" Zhao said.

"Your Majesty, Wan Qiyu has just returned from an envoy to the Dajin Kingdom! He said that the Jin people are also mobilizing soldiers and horses on a large scale, and the Jin people army will also go south in the near future! After eliminating Zhao Chen's kid together, our two countries will take the Yangtze River as the line and will not invade each other from now on. Qin Hui said.

"I already knew about it." Zhao said.

"Your Majesty, I want to say that when the time comes to attack Guanshan, our Great Song soldiers and horses must accept the command of Wanyan Zongwang, the second prince of the Jin Kingdom!" Qin Hui said.

"This ......" Zhao Gou was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why should our army accept their command?" ”

"Your Majesty, the Jurchen soldiers and horses are unparalleled in combat power, and the Jurchen generals are far superior to the generals of our dynasty, do you think so?" Qin Hui said.

Zhao Gou was silent for a while and nodded.

"That's it, in order to be able to win the war, we let Wanyan Zongwang command! If we let Zong Ze, Han Shizhong and others command, their ability is far inferior to Wanyan Zongwang, I am afraid that they may not be able to win! Qin Hui said.

"That's right, I'll give Zong Ze, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and others an order, and let them obey the command of the Jurchens!" Zhao said.

Coming out of the palace, Qin Hui had a faint smile on his face.

The cold wind was howling, but Qin Hui felt that his heart was hot.

"I wonder how the Jurchens are preparing? With the two combined, we should be able to eliminate Emperor Xuanwu, right? There won't be many problems! After the elimination of Emperor Xuanwu, we will negotiate peace with the Jurchens! When Wan Qiyu came back from the Jurchens, it can be seen that the Jurchens really don't want to fight anymore, and they just want to have fun now! After the elimination of Emperor Xuanwu, the world will be peaceful! Qin Hui said secretly.

As for the territory in the north and what to do with the people, Qin Hui didn't care about this problem at all.
