Chapter 998: The Authorities Are Confused

Yanjing, Wan Yan Xian has also been paying attention to the civil strife in the Song Dynasty these days, and he has received detailed information from Du Chong and Qin Hui that Zhao Ji will launch a palace coup d'Γ©tat during the canonization of the crown prince.

To tell the truth, Wan Yan Xian is not optimistic about Zhao Ji's palace coup, the timing is not right, the Song army has just destroyed the Western Xia, and the prestige of Song Tianzi is in full swing.

Of course, if the Song Dynasty was in turmoil, he would still be happy to see it, for this reason, he specially arranged for assassins to assassinate Li Yanqing in Lin'an, just to help Zhao Ji, if Li Yanqing died, not only Zhao Ji's throne could slowly sit firmly, but also the Jin State also removed a big trouble.

It's just that the final result disappointed Wan Yan Xian, Li Yanqing escaped the disaster twice, and Wan Yan Xie also realized that Zhao Ji's palace coup was dangerous this time.

In the study, Wan Yan Xian also stood in front of the window with his hands down, listening to the express letter from the guards behind him reporting to the Lin'an Mansion.

"The latest news is that Li Yanqing's army has entered Lin'an Mansion and has been canonized as the regent of the prison country......."

"That's it!"

Wan Yan Xian also interrupted the guard's words, "No need to report, let's go out!" By the way, bring me Pharmacist Guo. ”

"Obey!" The guard saluted and withdrew.

Wan Yan Xian's heart was also full of irritability, what he was worried about finally happened, Li Yanqing took control of the Great Song Dynasty, and the resources he had were no longer the Northwest and Bashu, but the entire Great Song Dynasty, which was undoubtedly like a tiger with wings.

"Fuck off!"

Wan Yan Xian was also depressed in his heart, he roared wildly, and slammed his fist on the table, 'Bang! The table was smashed.

At this time, there was a personal soldier outside the door to report, "General Guo is here." ”

Wan Yan Xian also slowly restrained the irritability in his heart, nodded and said, "Let him come in!" ”

After a while, Pharmacist Guo walked into the room, and he saw the table split into two sections at a glance, and his feet couldn't help but stagnate, and his heart became a little uneasy.

"Humble to see Marshal Du!"

At this time, Wan Yan Xian had completely calmed down, he pointed to the table and smiled: "Recently, my body has been quite heavy, and the table has also been broken." ”

"Huh! Let the guards change to a sturdy one. ”

Guo Yaoshi laughed dryly, and he could clearly see that the table was smashed, not sitting.

"Feel free to sit down!"

Wan Yan Xian has also been very polite to Guo Yaoshi recently, last month Guo Yaoshi reminded him that the Liao State is a strict control of the weapons of the grassland people, they cannot have such a large number of weapons, it is likely that someone is behind the support, Wan Yan Xian also immediately sent someone to investigate, and the results found are that the weapons of the grassland people are from Western Xia.

Of course, this will not be provided by Western Xia, Western Xia is about to destroy the country, and he does not have enough armor to resist the Song army, this should be provided by Li Yanqing to the grassland, only he has a large number of captured weapons, and only he can do this kind of thing.

This investigation result made Wan Yanxian also very annoyed, but at the same time full of vigilance, Li Yanqing obviously wanted to use the hands of the grassland people to weaken the Jin State and drag down the Jin soldiers.

It's a pity that the Jin State regarded the grassland as more important than the Song Dynasty, and even vetoed his proposal to withdraw his troops, and was bent on conquering the Mobei grassland, which made Wan Yan Xian very depressed.

"I don't know if Marshal Du is looking for a humble position......." Pharmacist Guo saw that Yan Xian was also a little distracted, so he reminded him in a low voice.

Wan Yan also nodded, "The situation in the south has not been good recently!" ”

"I also heard about the humble position, it seems that there was a palace coup in Lin'an, and Zhao Ji was reinstated."

"That's already news from the past, the latest news is that Li Yanqing suppressed the palace coup d'Γ©tat, was named the regent of the prison country, and the two-year-old child ascended the throne as the emperor."

Guo Yaoshi was stunned for a moment, Li Yanqing actually became the regent of the prison country, this is not good!

"Marshal Du, this is not good news for us!"

Wan Yan also sighed slightly, "It's not just bad news, it's completely bad news, I suspect that once he consolidates power, he will tear up the armistice agreement and attack the north." ”

"If that's the case, it's necessary for Marshal Du to remind Liu Yu!"

"I've sent someone to remind him, and to be honest, he's been letting me down lately."

Guo Yaoshi didn't dare to talk at will, so he had to listen patiently, and Wan Yan Xian also continued: "This time, Li Yanqing was able to defeat Zhao Ji's army, the fundamental reason is that he transferred 30,000 elite cavalry from Jingzhao, and they dealt with the Jiangnan Song army as if it were devastating, and this cavalry actually went south from the Central Plains, Liu Yu let them pass through the hinterland of the Central Plains like this, without any obstruction, and even without reporting to me. ”

Wan Yan Xian also said to the end, the anger in his heart rose again, he looked at Guo Yaoshi and said, "You explain to me, what does he mean by doing this?" ”

Pharmacist Guo was stunned, did he call himself to ask about it? Liu Yu has nothing to do with himself!

"This ..... He has no contact with Liu Yu, so I don't know what he thinks. ”

Wan Yan Xian also realized that his tone was too harsh, so he softened his tone and said, "I'm not blaming you, but I want to hear your thoughts, and I'll ask you something else later." ”

Only then did Pharmacist Guo put his mind at ease, he thought for a while and said: "I feel that Liu Yu is very afraid of Li Yanqing, for fear of annoying Li Yanqing, so he will obey his words like this." ”

"You're right, the problem is here, we actually found a soft bone to sit in the Central Plains, and we still expect him to fight with the Song army, it seems that I have to change people!"

Pharmacist Guo knew that Wan Yan Xian was also angry, if he was replaced, he would directly force Liu Yu to rebel, and then it would be worth the loss.

Wan Yan Xian also complained, and then turned the topic to business, "A few days ago, Li Yanqing sent an official to negotiate with me, asking us to hand over Li Yungui, otherwise it will be regarded as us tearing up the armistice agreement, what do you think he means?" Are you afraid that Li Yungui will restore Western Xia, or is he deliberately finding fault and provoking us? ”

Guo Yaoshi was speechless for a while, isn't this a repetition of the Zhang Jue incident? The difference is that the two sides are completely reversed, which is really funny!

Of course, Li Yungui was the only Western Xia royal family who fled to the Jin Kingdom, and Li Yanqing did have the intention of preventing him from restoring, but Guo Yaoshi felt that things were not so simple.

He groaned and said: "I feel that Li Yanqing is making excuses for tearing up the armistice agreement, Li Yungui is actually dispensable to him, Western Xia has disappeared, if the Jin State helps Li Yungui to restore, it is better to directly occupy the land of Western Xia himself." ”

"It makes sense, I also think that Li Yanqing's real purpose is to find an excuse to tear up the armistice agreement, but the problem now is that Li Yungui is not worth anything to me."

Pharmacist Guo understood what Wan Yan Xian meant, he wanted to hand over Li Yungui to Song Jun, it seems that Wan Yan Xian is still a bit of a fan of the authorities!

Guo Yaoshi cautiously reminded: "If Li Yungui is handed over, I am afraid that the imperial court will be unfavorable to Marshal Du." ”

Wan Yan Xian didn't speak for a long time, and after a long time, he nodded, "I know!" ”

Wan Yan Xian also slowly walked to the window, there was an anxiety in his eyes that could not be concealed, he just remembered the Zhang Jue incident, it has only been a few years, the situation has begun to reverse, if the imperial court does not end the conquest of the Mobei grassland, it will make a major strategic mistake.

Thinking of this, Wan Yan Xian was also anxious, and he decided to rush to Shangjing Huining Mansion tomorrow to see the wolf lord.

.........

Time passed, in a blink of an eye to March of the following year, at the beginning of the year, voted by the hundred officials, changed the year name to Song Xing, the regent Li Yanqing issued an amnesty decree, all parts of the world, all serious crimes can be pardoned, and at the same time issued a merger order, cancel the special household registration such as music and craftsman, and all are good records.

The amnesty decree is a common thing, and everyone does not feel it deeply, but the merger decree has shaken the people of the world, both praise and disapproval, especially the practitioners of music and artisans.

If the amnesty decree and the merger decree only had an impact on a small number of people, then the reform of the sales system, the abolition of exemption money, and the suspension of commercial taxes had a profound impact on the people of the world.

The reform of the sales system is to restore the former monopoly of sales and selling, abolish the operation of sales by local governments, and plug the loopholes in the system of officials in various places abusing power for personal gain and harming the people; this is a reform that will be implemented last year, but the palace coup d'Γ©tat prevented this reform from being carried out, and it was finally implemented in the hands of Li Yanqing after several months of brewing.

The biggest advantage of reforming the system of selling tea, wine, and salt is that the income from the sale goes directly to the central court, which cracks down on the shady collusion between officials and businessmen, greatly increases the financial revenue of the imperial court, and at the same time lowers the source price of monopoly products, so that the price of goods can be lowered, and the people can get benefits.

In addition, the abolition of the exemption money is a benefit given by the new imperial court to the people of the world, which greatly reduces the tax burden of the people and makes the people of the world grateful.

The two reforms were immediate, and the economy of the Song Dynasty began to recover rapidly, especially after the suspension of commercial taxes, commerce began to flourish in various places, and Lin'an City began to prosper in just a few months, with the number of new shops opening increasing by 50% compared to last year.

At the beginning of March, Zhong Xiang Yang Mi, who rebelled at Dongting Lake, was completely suppressed by Yue Fei's army, which restored the smooth flow of the Yangtze River waterway and further promoted the prosperity of the Yangtze River shipping industry.
