Chapter 286: Scholar of Guanwen Temple

Jia Rudao didn't take Li Mingfu in his eyes originally, but Li Mingfu's words today made him pay attention to this old fox who hadn't made any moves since his nephew died.

Of course, it's just a matter of paying attention.

What really surprised him was what Shi Songzhi just said, or Shi Songzhi's strategic vision.

Prior to this, to be honest, Shi Songzhi didn't show much that made Jia Yidao feel amazing, maybe because he had too many constraints in the court, maybe because he no longer had the position of Zuo Prime Minister he dreamed of after worshipping the prime minister, or maybe as he got older and passed the years of youth, Shi Songzhi spent most of his energy on restoring or holding the foundation left by Shi Miyuan and fighting with the school of science, whether it was in government affairs or military, Shi Songzhi has indeed made few achievements over the years.

The alliance with Shi Songzhi is to help each other at best, but at worst, it is to protect the lives of the two old and new, who are also regarded by the rest of the DPRK and China as thorns in their eyes.

However, Shi Songzhi's exposition of the southeast regions today made Jia Yidao look at Shi Songzhi with admiration.

Putting aside the other reasons why he wanted to leave Lin'an City, because those reasons were not only for not wanting to spend years and energy with Shi Songzhi in the court and fighting wits and courage with a bunch of old things, but also some of the more important reasons were really difficult to say.

The other main reason why Jia Yidao wants to go to Guangdong is that he was told by Shi Songzhi today.

The southeast place, that is, the Guangnan East and West Roads, Fujian Road, Jinghu South Road and Jiangnan West Road, which Shi Songzhi wanted to include for the southeast to make the Yamen, can be said to be the only place that can be used as a strategic depth in the not too long strategic depth of the Great Song Dynasty.

Sichuan, Jinghu, Huainan, East and West theaters, no matter which one is the forefront of facing the Mongol front, which is the main reason why the Southern Song Dynasty set up these four theaters and deployed more than two-thirds of its troops in these four theaters.

Once any of these four major theaters of war were lost, the Great Song Dynasty would have a smooth road inside, and there would not be many available troops to stop the Mongols moving south. Especially the capital city of Lin'an, it is too far ahead.

Running the southeast well can give the Great Song Dynasty a stable rear, advance to the two major theaters of Sichuan and Jinghu, and retreat can give the Great Song royal family retreating south a place to settle down, leaving at least some hope.

This is also one of the important reasons why Jia Rudao let the Lin'an prefect not do it, let the imperial historian and the Jiankang prefect not fight, but he had to fight for the pacification of Guangdong, which was thousands of miles away.

Obviously, Shi Songzhi also saw this, so he would be so shocking and endlessly set up the southeast system to make the yamen.

Perhaps, Shi Songzhi didn't really mean to express his dissatisfaction or joke.

However, Jia Yidao also knew that not to mention what Zhao Yun thought, if the Southeast Control Envoy Yamen could really be set up, then with his qualifications and age, the position of the Southeast Control Envoy would not be his turn anyway. Not to mention, the Yamen of the General Department of the City in his hands has now begun to control the financial power of the Great Song Dynasty.

When money, power, people, and land are concentrated in the hands of one person, it is difficult not to be suspicious.

Zhao Yun on the dragon chair was a cold-eyed bystander from beginning to end, and the ministers in the lower and lower halls of the hall did not say a word, and there was no joy or anger in his expression at all.

"Holy Lord, everything in the southeast needs to be planned slowly, don't be in a hurry, Holy Lord." Du Fan and the others knew the truth of striking while the iron was hot, and they all bowed to the ground and shouted.

"I'm afraid that don't be in a hurry, but someone is interested in the position of the southeast envoy......

"Hehe, Li thinks otherwise. The southeast places are so important, Shi Xiang proposed today, and Li seems to be more like preparing for Shi Xiang himself...... Shi Xiang, do you say yes or no? ”

“……”

Li Ming's compassionate words made Shi Songzhi's expression change suddenly.

This sentence is truly a heart-wrenching statement.

After Shi Miyuan, Zhao Yun was already wary of the Shi family, and the southeast system made the yamen cover nearly one-third of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, if Shi Songzhi really wanted to be the southeast system envoy himself, then with Shi Miyuan in front, it is difficult not to guarantee that once Shi Songzhi gains power, he will be a difficult figure to govern. What's more, it is very likely that the imperial robe of the territory will be added.

Shi Songzhi's painstaking planning today, even at the expense of offending Zhao Shimi and other heirs at today's court meeting, has to support Zhao Yun, doesn't he just want to regain Zhao Yun's trust by taking advantage of his relationship with Jia Yidao as an ally?

As soon as Li Mingfu's words came out, if Zhao Yun really believed it, then not only would everything he had done before be in vain, but he might even turn today's overtures and favors to Jia Nidao into a big pit, which angered Jia Nidao!

I don't know if Jia Yidao will believe Shi Songzhi, but Zhao Yun, it's hard to say!

How could Shi Songzhi not be shocked and angry!

Hearing Li Mingfu's words, the ministers in the palace were in an uproar and began to whisper to each other.

That's right, if the southeast system envoy yamen is really established, whether it is qualifications or status, the most suitable candidate to be the southeast system envoy in the court will not exceed the number of people, and this number of people is selected, as the privy council of the privy council, and Shi Songzhi, who is the first to put forward the importance of the southeast regions to set up the southeast system and yamen, is undoubtedly the most suitable person for this hand.

As for Jia Yidao, no one thought that he could really be in the position of the Southeast Control Envoy. No matter how much Zhao Yun favors him, he still has to balance the opinions of all aspects of the court after all, right?

Feeling the eyes of the ministers in the palace, Shi Songzhi's face became more and more embarrassed.

"Enough!"

With Zhao Yun's cold drink, the chaos in the hall instantly dissipated.

"The matter of the southeast system to make the yamen stopped, and the Guangnan West Road and Guangnan East Road were Guangdong Road, and the Guangzhou Mansion was set up as the location of the Guangdong Road Yamen, and Jia Rudao was promoted to the scholar of the Guanwendian University, and the pacification envoy of Guangdong and the governor of Guangzhou. At this time, the New Year is approaching, the crown prince's sealing ceremony is about to be held, Yun Jia seems to be waiting for the New Year to go to work, Guangnan East and West Road officials perform their duties, must not slack off! This edict will be written from now on! ”

Zhao Yun lightly said the will that had been drawn up a long time ago, and decided in one word.

"My emperor Shengming, the ministers obey the order!"

Xie Jubo took the lead in bowing down to answer the order, and the rest of the ministers in the palace could only chant in unison no matter what they thought in their hearts.

"Retreat!"

Coldly dropped the two words, Zhao Yun flicked his sleeves and left directly, leaving behind a group of ministers with different thoughts.
