Chapter 652: Dogtooth's Mission
At dinner, Zhao Zongyuan didn't come over, only Gouya'er accompanied his father.
If you look closely, you will find that the father and son are too similar, they both like to put one foot on the chair, quite a bit of the arrogance of the king of the mountain, when eating chicken, like fat and tender chicken legs, and eat fish is rich belly...... The two of them are extremely fast, it can be said that it is a whirlwind, Wang Ning'an's appetite has always been good, Gouya'er is half the size of the child, the age of eating Lao Tzu to death, the father and son divided the food on the table equally.
Make a pot of strong fragrant tea and chat while drinking.
"Your Highness didn't have a childβfree and easy!" Dogtooth thought for a long time, and concluded: "Dad, he shouldn't be allowed to go to the Royal Primary School, do you know, those gentlemen muttered in his ear every day to learn the truth, and turned a good person into a primary school, which is not very interesting!" β
Gouya'er said regretfully: "You still taught well, at that time, His Royal Highness didn't believe in the way of Confucius and Mencius at all, and said that Confucius was a snob, but now he doesn't dare to say such things." β
Wang Ningan smiled: "Then do you dare? β
"Of course I dare!"
Dog Ya'er said without an image: "What kind of thing is Confucius?" Isn't it just a waste who travels around the world and can't even eat! If nothing else, if I travel around the world, at least I can write, settle accounts, fist and kick, and in a few years, I will be able to carry a sack, and no matter what time it is, I will not be hungry. By virtue of that, I'm better than Confucius, right? β
The son patted his chest proudly, and Wang Ningan smiled slightly, "Confucius is not as wasteful as you think, and other people's kung fu is good!" It's just that people are celebrities and don't want to bend down to be small! β
"Die to save face and suffer sin!"
Dogtooth said unceremoniously: "Anyway, I won't be so pedantic!" His Royal Highness has been poisoned by the way of Confucius and Mencius, and if you want me to say that there is something to be entangled, isn't it the Tangut people! What if they all die, clean up the place, just for the sons of the Han family. β
Wang Ningan poured a sip of tea, and the warmth spread in the esophagus, and the whole body was excited, which was very comfortable.
"If only it were as simple as you think, your father is getting older and older, and I have been reading the Analects a lot in the past two years, which is actually really helpful. Just don't take it seriously! β
Dogtooth looked up and down, he couldn't believe his ears, he ran to his father's side, and circled around for a long time. γ
"Dad, you're not going to let people drop their bags, are you?"
Wang Ningan glared at him fiercely, he was dropped, but you weren't born at that time!
"One yin and one yang is the way. His Royal Highness, as the heir of the country, of course can't do whatever he wants. What is good at the top will be very bad at the bottom. If he is desperate and comes casually, without the slightest awe in his heart, what do you say will happen to the people below? β
Dog Ya'er scratched her head, "I guess it will be crazy, after all, the cruelty of the people of Western Xia and the people of the Great Song Dynasty are all harmful, if you don't hesitate to do it...... That's scary! β
Wang Ningan smiled: "You're right, but what if you don't do it?" β
"That's a woman's kindness, but there is no decision!" Dogtooth said decisively.
"Well said!" Wang Ningan gave his son a thumbs up, "A son of heaven should be restrained, only in this way will the national strength not be wasted." For example, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, his various deeds, heroic and strategic, conquered Liaodong, opened canals, and graced for thousands of years, which was similar to Tang Taizong, but ended up dying and the country was broken. β
Dogtooth blinked, "Dad, you don't want me to go to Wei Zheng, right?" β
"Would you like to?"
"Of course not!" Dogtooth said: "I don't want to be an old stubborn!" β
"And what do you want to do?"
"Do...... Do what His Highness wants to do but doesn't dare to do! The clever dog Ya'er finally found the answer, and he smiled and said: "If you want to conquer Western Xia, you must toss the people of Western Xia and turn Western Xia into a miserable hell, only in this way, wherever the army goes, will it look at the wind and fall!" We need a ruthless general to destroy our opponents, and we also need a benevolent emperor to clean up people's hearts! β
Thinking of this, Gouya'er jumped up, "Dad, is this the truth you said about one yin and one yang?" β
The little guy seemed to have seen through some heavenly opportunity, dancing with his hands and dancing very happily.
Wang Ningan smiled slightly, "Everything is easier said than done, between you and the prince, there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, I am afraid that it is countless times more difficult to deal with than being a father, use more brains, you know?" β
"Yes, the boy understands!"
Our dogtooth eldest young master really pondered it carefully, and Dad's words were not groundless. He enters the palace many times a year, and he can obviously feel that Zhao Zhen is getting older and older.
Maybe it won't be long before his little friend will become the Ninety-Five Supreme and reign over the world.
If you still think of him as a stupid kid in the class, a classmate who needs to cover himself, it would be a big mistake.
But my young master is not your Zhao Zongyuan's slave, so he can do whatever he wants me to do? No one in the world wants to fiddle with me!
After careful consideration, he felt that the best way was not to hide anything from Zhao Zongyuan, but what to do, he had to be assertive!
Just like his father and Zhao Zhen, he has to show the spirit and responsibility of a man, and he is even stronger than the prince.
Dog Ya'er took the time to drag Zhao Zongyuan out.
Under the protection of a group of people, the two little ones came to the place where the homeless lived.
They sent tents, quilts, cotton clothes, pots and pans, and all kinds of food.
Under the banner of the crown prince, Gouya'er and Zhao Zongyuan handed over the things to every hungry person with their own hands.
I have to say, this hand is really touching!
The hungry people of Western Xia all knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly and thanking Dade.
In Western Xia, not to mention the crown prince, even the young leaders of the tribe can't be seen, the people are nobles, where will they take care of ordinary untouchables. It is said that the official family of the Great Song Dynasty loves the people like a son, and finally saw it, and what he said is true!
After Zhao Zongyuan's performance, Gouyaer appeared in a big way.
He remembered his father's lesson, be good to people, of course there will be people who are grateful to Dade, but people have always been forgetful animals, no matter how much benefit they give them, no matter how great the kindness, over time, they will quickly weaken, which is why the emperor keeps showing favor and buying people's hearts.
If it is only a gesture of favor, and then there is no means, the value of the effort will gradually depreciate, and finally it will be infinitely close to zero......
"Listen, your highness cherishes your people, and cannot bear you to starve and freeze. But as a person, you can't be cheeky and eat and drink for nothing. People with hands and feet, not cats and dogs, just wag their tails and change to something to eat. You must know how to repay your kindness, and you must be worthy of the Great Song Dynasty and your conscience. His Royal Highness is merciful, and as long as there is merit, he will never be stingy with rewards. β
Gouya'er taught loudly: "You still have many clansmen, under the rule of Li Liangzuo, oops, screaming in pain, life is better than death...... I hope you will take the initiative to stand up, return to Western Xia, and tell those people that the Great Song Dynasty is merciful and generous, and is willing to help them get out of the sea of suffering. β
"As long as you say that more people of Western Xia will come to the Great Song Dynasty, we will give you pastures, cattle and sheep, and even give you official backgrounds, so that you can become officials of the Great Song Dynasty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was a lifetime of groveling, starvation, and even a daughter-in-law who could not afford to marry. Or do you strike angrily and strive to be a dignified man? You can rest assured, as long as you are willing to return to Xixia, someone will protect you, and your family can still get a settlement payment, and you will be given priority to get a house to live in, so think about it! β
As Wang Ning'an's son, Gouya'er perfectly inherited his father's talent for flickering, from the next day, food is still available, as long as you agree to go back to Xixia, you can get broth white rice, dare not go, only vegetable dumplings, brown rice, brush pot water...... People are strong, these Tangut people are no exception, they have been fighting with the harsh environment since they were young, and when they were only teenagers, they had to dance knives and guns, and kill the enemy on the battlefield.
One by one, the gambling nature is very strong.
If nothing else, just being able to eat white rice in broth is worth the effort!
More and more people were willing to go back to Western Xia to encourage the tribesmen to surrender.
There are even quite a few women who are willing to take risks.
Gouya'er was very happy, he found the soldiers of the Shanzi Battalion, conducted simple anti-reconnaissance training for these people, and then found some small officials who could speak well and told them how to fool people.
Also, it is necessary to inform Di Xianggong, let Di Qing arrange personnel to protect them, and after sending them back to Western Xia, he will arrange people to pick them up.
This is a very large project, Gouyaer has participated in many wargames, his performance is not bad, the first time to command a large-scale operation, although a little rushed, but still have a clear eye, do a very good job!
At this time, Western Xia was like a restless powder keg, and there was a danger of breaking out at any time.
Li Liangzuo is difficult to ride a tiger, he has demanded that the trade volume of the first year of the Silk Road be limited to 5 million guan, according to the standard of one out of ten, can only get 500,000 guan tax, and of the 500,000 guan, seventy percent will be handed over to the Great Song Dynasty, they can only get 150,000 guan, and another 350,000 guan, which must be levied from the common people.
Li Liangzuo felt that the royal family took the lead in donating 100,000 yuan, which should be able to move many people, and perhaps it would not be very difficult...... But he forgot that the Tangut people were too poor, and the officials of the Tangut were far worse than those of the Great Song Dynasty!
Let's put it this way, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty dared to increase the harsh taxes by two or three times outside the main class, and the common people complained and scolded bitterly, but the officials of the Western Xia dared to increase it by ten times or twenty times!
Especially many nobles, they bought the land in the Hexi Corridor, and wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, but Li Liangzuo forbade it, and lost the harvest of Sangyu in the east, since we are not allowed to do business, then exploit the people, in short, we can't suffer!
Tongxin Village is a small village under the Cattle Killing Ridge, just now, a group of captive soldiers took 20 cattle and 1,000 sheep from here. These cattle and sheep were exchanged for winter food by the villagers, and everything was gone...... The men in Tongxin Village looked at each other, and tears blurred the woman's eyes.
"Don't cry! It's a gentleman, follow me to snatch the cattle and sheep back! No one can take anything from us! A majestic man roared sadly.
