Zhao Wuxian and Nanzi are both over thirty years old, and the strong love-hate entanglement when they were young has been slowly washed away by time, although it is still very exciting to see the holy witch wearing a witch robe and half-exposed when cheating, but after the passion, more is left with political mutual needs. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, with the death of Song Gongjiao, and with the fall of Huang Ying and Sima Ziniu, this political mutual need was also somewhat loosened. Nanzi's enemies in the Song Kingdom were swept away, which gave her the illusion that the Song Kingdom had entered an era dominated by her since then, and she was even gearing up to follow the example of the woman and make a big move.

However, in Zhao Wuxian's case, this plan fell through.

Although Zhao Wuxian is a descendant, he is not a feminist. Doing as the locals do, he personally respected Nanzi, but politically, he let Nanzi's lust for power hit the high city walls headlong - in the Central Plains dominated by the Zhao State, the heroine's arrival in the dynasty and the supremacy of theocracy were only expedient, not the real future of the Song State!

In the face of Nanzi's questioning, Zhao Wuxian said bluntly: "After Zishang becomes an adult, of course the widow will let him be the ruler of the entire territory of the Song Kingdom, but now there are many nobles and countrymen in the East who do not obey the way of heaven and you, what should you do?" “

"Kill!" Nanzi gritted her teeth, she always thought that these people who tried to be unfavorable to her and her son, how many people did not kill, drowning, killing, car splitting, beheading, burning at the stake, in short, it was better to kill 10,000 by mistake than to let go of 100!

This is the reason why Zhao Wuxian is not at ease to hand over the entire Song Kingdom to this woman, she is easy to fall into paranoia and madness, hundreds of thousands of people in the eastern part of the Song Kingdom, you can't kill everything, if Zhao Wuxian doesn't protect it, I'm afraid that even the Le family will be poisoned sooner or later.

Therefore, it is better to move Le's to Pengcheng and let Leqi and Nanzi rule on their own side.

"The widow decided to turn the Song Kingdom into two counties, one is Pengcheng County and the other is Suiyang County, bounded by Mangdang Mountain, you and Zishang rule Suiyang Shangqiu, and Le's rule Pengcheng."

Nanzi naturally has an opinion on this division, she thinks that Zhao Wuxian is biased, ignoring herself and her son, and favoring outsiders, but Zhao Wuxian has made up her mind, and it doesn't work even if she is soft and hard.

In the end, Nanzi could only accept this reality, she was once an adventurous person, but after having a son, she was much more cautious, and she would rather accept the Song kingdom, which had shrunk by half, than break with Zhao Wuxian. After all, in this relationship, the powerful Zhao Wuxian is undoubtedly the leader, even though Nanzi is unwilling to admit it, she is still a vine wrapped around a big tree, if the tree falls, she doesn't know how long she can hold on without withering.

"What the king wants, what the concubine wants......"

Nanzi cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, she was wearing thin clothes, and she cried again at Zhao Wuxian when she collapsed, but Zhao Wuxian was unmoved, and Nanzi could only bow again.

But Nanzi still had a trace of unwillingness in her heart, and she said resentfully before leaving: "People say, father and son work together, and their family will be prosperous, but the prince would rather give outsiders not his son, if he is not satisfied with Zhao and colludes with the enemy country to rebel, this more than a year of fierce battle, the hard work of the prince and the marquis, will be ......in vain."

Clothed in deep clothes, staring at Nanzi's distant palace lamp, Zhao Wuxian sighed.

"Nanzi, I'm more worried about you than Leyu, it's you, the Heavenly Daoist Sect who was released from the cage by my own hands......"

Ran Qiu is right about one thing, the fuse of this Song civil war was largely Nanzi's expanding desire for power and the growing Heavenly Daoism.

Although all this was the seed planted by Zhao Wuxian to control the Song Kingdom, but things have developed so far, and he, like Ran Qiu, also thinks that it is time to put a shackle on Tiandao and Nanzi.

For this shackle, he chose his wife's family, the Le clan.

This kind of division of things and things, firstly, not to let the Le clan fall into the vast sea of Heavenly Daoists, secondly, it can maintain the balance of power between the power of Song Guoqing and the divine power, and thirdly, it is also a kind of strengthening of Zhao Heng, who is opposed to the crown prince.

This checks and balances are not precarious, but they are the most feasible stopgap measures at the moment.

But Zhao Wuxian also knew that under Nanzi's delicate flowers were sharp thorns, and under the colorful appearance was a poisonous sac that sealed her throat with blood, although she succumbed to Zhao Wuxian's order, she was mostly dissatisfied in her heart.

In this regard, although Zhao Wuxian was a little disappointed, what surprised him was that there were not too many waves in his heart.

Just as Nanzi was no longer so attached to Zhao Wuxian after clearing out his political enemies, after he really extended his tentacles into the Song Kingdom, Zhao Wuxian no longer needed Nanzi so much, and only their babbling heir "Zishang" was left to maintain the relationship between the two.

"I only hope that she can remain as smart as she always is, understand her own situation, and don't take pampering as partiality, turn dissatisfaction into rebellion, and force me to do the thing of killing my mother and protecting my child......"

Each kitten grows up and looks harmless at first, young and quiet, licking milk from a shallow dish. But once the claws grow, the cat will scratch people, and sometimes even scratch the hands of cat owners.

For a politician like Zhao Wuxian who crawls to the top of the food chain, he must not be merciful, because in the struggle for power, there is only one rule: if you don't be a hunter, you will be the prey!

……

During his time in Shangqiu, Zhao Wuxian formally intervened in the affairs of the Song State, emulating the Zhao State system, and divided the Song State in the "first year of the Zi Shang" into two counties, one for Suiyang and the other for Pengcheng. As the only secretary of the Song State, Le Yu moved the entire Le clan to the east, ruled Pengcheng as the "Great Sicheng", and fought against Nanzi.

If nothing else, before Zishang became an adult, the Song Kingdom would be able to have peace for more than ten years......

At the same time, Zhao Wuxian also made follow-up arrangements for the newly seized Xu Huaisi land.

Three orders were issued quickly.

"Xu and Zhongwu are two places, all kinds of ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, the widow will choose Xu people to govern Xu Tu, Zhong Wu people to govern Zhong Wu, until the rebuilding of Xu and Zhong Wu's regime, they will send troops to station!"

"In this southern expedition, the sergeant of the army was knighted for his merits, and he was awarded land and farm houses for his merits, all in Xu Huai!"

"Tan State is the same as its old system, Pi State helped Wu to be evil, stubbornly resisted, the widow will abolish its community, and Zhao State set up Pi County in Pidi."

On the one hand, Zhao Wuxian said that he would not enslave the locals like Wu Guo, but would let the local regime "restore the country", but it is unclear who will be the monarch after this restoration.

On the other hand, Zhao Wuxian announced to the soldiers of Zhao that the land houses awarded by the military merit were given priority in the land of Xu Huai, the newly conquered land, to encourage the newly created military landlords to move to the past, and also to take the underground Pi between the Song and Xu as their own.

He also left an entire army of soldiers in Xu Huai, and Xu, Zhongwu, Pi, Zhongli, Shandao, and Cai Guo each garrisoned 2,000 men to defend Wu and Chu.

These three rather contradictory orders left some people scratching their heads, and only Zhao Wuxian and a few of his aides knew in their hearts that this was still an expedient measure to bring the distant enclave under his rule.

In the Shang and Zhou dynasties, where the literacy rate was not high and the scholar group was insufficient, the Fang State and the feudal system were the only way, because with the growth of the distance between the territory and the capital, the efficiency of the governance of the frontier would also be greatly weakened - just imagine, when it takes half a year for the information of a place to be transmitted to the national capital, and the instructions issued from the national capital can only be transmitted to the local area after half a year, and when the heavenly envoy arrives, the local rebellion, famine, and external disasters have already passed through the time. The officials were no different from the Tuwang, so the Zhou Dynasty divided the feudal areas in the Liaoyuan region and let them implement self-governance to shield the Zhou, which was the inevitable choice of the patriarchal system and the helplessness of the times.

However, in the history known to Zhao Wuxian, the Qin Dynasty chose a completely different approach: Qin Shi Huang Jianping Six Kingdoms, one has the world. Listening to Li Si's words, the princes and princes of the past competed, and China was restless, so the feudalism was eliminated and the counties were run.

To be honest, in Zhao Wuxian's view, although Qin Shi Huang's measures were praised by later generations, in fact, they were still a little ahead of their time. Although straight roads were built and many canals and ditches were opened on the basis of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the vast territory and distant border counties brought not only the submission of all the people, but also endless border troubles and complicated local affairs. Qin Shi Huang also had to patrol several times, to the local sense of the central presence, in order to maintain the rule of the empire, but also sent countless soldiers to the border, whether it is the development of Henan or the conquest of Baiyue, have greatly increased the administrative cost of the empire, so that the prisoners are everywhere, and the soldiers run all year round.

In the end, as soon as the first emperor died, the pawn was called, and Hangu was raised; The Chu people burned, pitiful scorched earth.

In the face of the lessons of the past and the future trend, he can choose the good ones and follow them, and choose the bad ones and change them, which is why there is a situation where the counties of Daxing in Zhao are in the local area of Zhao and the vassals are widely attached in the surrounding areas.

For the Wei Guo Lu State, because of the excavation of the canal, the Zhao State can still be controlled a little tighter, but for Xu Huai Sishang, the distance from the Zhao State is too far away, and there is no foundation for ruling before, so it is rashly turned into a county, just afraid that it will trigger a counterattack by local forces and increase the administrative cost of the Zhao State. It is better to garrison the garrison first, give the local forces a promise of autonomy, and then slowly figure it out.

After dealing with the affairs of Song, Xu, Sishang and other southeastern directions, in late October, Zhao Wuxian asked the Lu army to return to Lu, and he brought the Zhao conscription troops who had been fighting abroad for half a year to return to Yecheng.

In the land of Qunshu south of Xu Huai, a pair of eyes were closely watching Zhao Wuxian's every move, and when the main force of the Zhao army finally withdrew and returned to the north, Wang Sunsheng, who had just been named "Doctor Chaoyi", thought that the opportunity of the Chu State had come!

PS: The previous setting is wrong, Wang Sunsheng should not have sealed Bai Gong at this time. Happy New Year to everyone. )
