Chapter 503: Be Stricter

Zhidu Rong Xiaorong's qin sound came out slowly, singing softly, Zhou Bangyan's complexion slowly eased a lot, but he didn't speak, he didn't ask much, he just listened to the song slowly, and couldn't help shaking his head from time to time.

Zheng Zhi sat for a long time, observing secretly, until he saw Zhou Bangyan's expression of enjoyment, and knew in his heart that things were almost over.

After a while, Zheng Zhi got up and said, "Uncle Zhou, the little nephew is leaving." ”

Zhou Bangyan heard Zheng Zhi's words, and also got up and asked, "Why don't you have a light meal at home today?" ”

Zheng Zhi obviously achieved his goal, and only said: "Thank you Uncle Zhou, the little nephew still has some small things to do, and I will bother the house next time." ”

Zhou Duwen hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Zheng, I'll send you out." ”

Zhou Duwen wanted to send Zheng Zhi, naturally to express his gratitude, but he never thought that Zhao Yingluo would open his mouth and smile: "Zhou Gongzi is here to accompany the beauty, I should also go back to the palace, and by the way, I will help you send Zheng Xianggong." ”

Zhou Duwen glanced back at Rong Xiaorong at this time, and knew that it was really inappropriate to put her here alone, and while he was hesitating, Zheng Zhi smiled and nodded with Zhao Yingluo, and had already gotten up and went out, and Zhao Yingluo also left.

Things on the surface are naturally in the past, but after all, Zhou Bangyan and Zhou Duwen still have some words to say, and after the two leave, the father and son still need a frank exchange about Rong Xiaorong.

Zheng Zhi and Zhao Yingluo walked out, and they each prepared transportation outside the door, but they couldn't walk together for long. At this time, Zheng Zhi also slowed down and let Zhao Yingluo go to the front, and the identity of the emperor should naturally go ahead.

Zhao Yingluo had already opened his mouth first: "Zheng Xianggong is so talented, but he leads troops outside, has Zheng Xianggong ever thought of being ordered in front of the emperor?" ”

Zheng Zhi was a little surprised when he heard this, he really didn't expect such a fourteen or fifteen-year-old princess to talk about this kind of topic with him, and replied: "I didn't think much about the matter of receiving orders from the emperor, serving the country is the same everywhere, and it is not impossible to lead troops to fight in the army." ”

Zhao Yingluo nodded, and there was still the sentence "It's a pity" in her heart, that is, she felt that there were many people who could fight, and there were not many people with outstanding literary talents, and Zheng Zhi had already been blamed for the category of outstanding literary talents. Talented people should naturally serve in front of the emperor, formulate national policies and the like, and the way of governing the country is still superior after all. Such as Fan Wenzhenggong, such as Wang Anshi, Sima Guang.

"When Zheng Xianggong finishes the war, he will still come to Tokyo after all. Come early and come late. Zhao Yingluo said, the deep meaning is that it is better to come late than early. After all, the thoughts of this little emperor are still limited, and it is also an environmental impact, and I only feel that the ministers above the court are the pillars of the country, the models who serve the country, and shoulder the important task of governing the country for the emperor.

"Well, Your Highness is right, sooner or later you will still come to Tokyo." Zheng Zhi replied. It's just that the two don't have the same understanding of this sentence.

After chatting for three or five days, he had already arrived at the door, and Zhao Yingluo went to the side of his frame, but he didn't get into the car, but turned around to look at Zheng Zhi.

I saw Zheng Zhi take the reins from the hands of the soldiers, his legs were lightly exerted, the horse was high, and he jumped up, and the person had turned over and sat firmly on the horse's back, with smooth movements and one go.

After watching such an action, Zhao Yingluo turned his head and stepped on the small stairs of the footsteps towards the frame.

The city of Tokyo is still peaceful, with peddlers, pawns, literati, and high-ranking officials all doing their own things in the city.

The snow in the winter also slowly began to fall, the harsh winter finally arrived in Bianliang, there were many more old men who sold charcoal in the city, with a simple ox cart pulling a cart of charcoal from all directions, when entering the city to pay a little tax, sell a few carts of charcoal, go home can also have a good year.

The exchange of economic activities had a very positive impact on the living standards of the people, which was the main reason for the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty.

There were no drills in the camp in the afternoon, and the forbidden army in Tokyo rarely drilled, and they did not necessarily practice once a month. Wang Yu came from Jiangnan, and his subordinates were sleepy and lacking, so naturally they didn't practice.

Zheng Zhi's soldiers did not practice because it was rare to have such leisure, and the martial arts school in the army was naturally going to focus on classes again.

Now these unscrupulous men can actually recognize a few baskets of big characters, and the progress is really good, Zheng Zhi is also starting to teach map skills, and he is also extremely anxious, and the course seems very nervous. It was Zheng Zhi who knew that as long as this group of people could really learn the map homework, the mode of combat in the future would undergo earth-shaking changes.

Military planning can also be more detailed, and the command and dispatch of operations can go down to the details.

At this time, Wu Yong led people to wander around the streets and alleys of Bianliang, just for the matter of procurement, as long as Wu Yong felt that the materials and raw materials were useful, he would talk with the merchants for a long time, finalize the transaction price and quantity, pay a small deposit, and wait for these merchants to raise funds and send them to Cangzhou.

For the people, money is the most important thing. For a party's forces, money is only a medium after all, and materials are the main thing. Excess money is exchanged for materials, which is the maximization of benefits.

Li Gang has to be busy again, the fast horse from Bianliang will arrive in a few days, and after the government affairs in the palace, Li Gang has already picked the big beam, Pei Xuan and Zhu Wu assisted. Now it's time to change the signboard of this Jinglufu, which is Hebei East Road Jingluofu. It stands to reason that this Jingluo Mansion should be located in the Daimyo Mansion, and everything will naturally be subordinate to power in wartime, and the administrative office of Hebei East Road will go to Cangzhou on the border front.

Li Gang's errand is no different from the original, that is, to check the acres of land, to collect tax arrears, and to ask for money.

Hebei East Road is a rectangular area from north to south, starting from Baoding Army and Xiongzhou in the north (Baoding, Xiongxian, Baxian), and south to Damingfu and Kaidefu (Daming, Puyang). The site is really not small, to the west is naturally Hebei West Road, and to the east is Shandong, that is, Jingdong Road. Qizhou, Yunzhou and other places, Qizhou Yunzhou is also the territory under Zheng Zhizhi.

In this way, both sides of the border between Hebei and Shandong have been connected into a line, both of which are the territory under Zheng Zhi's command, and the Shandong Peninsula is in the east of the Shandong Peninsula, and the barriers of the Shandong Peninsula are in the hands of Zheng Zhi. The old land of the State of Qi, part of the State of Zhao.

Since Tong Guan talked to Zheng Zhi about King Yun, some personnel of the Privy Council and the front division of the palace have had errands, the vast snow, people are in and out, and there are a lot of plainclothes soldiers in the city of Bianliang.

began to inquire around about the recent whereabouts of Wang Hao and King Yun, which was at the door of Wang Hao's house, and now there are several waves of people watching.

This is the strength in Tong Guan's hands, usually just not out, when it comes to use, it is not comparable to other central or local yamen.

When the information arrived in front of Tong Guan, some things were naturally clear at a glance, and the resignation of Zhao Chen, the son of the Prince of the Holy Decree, was discovered, and it was not a secret thing for Wang Huang to see Geng Nanzhong several times.

Recently, Geng Nanzhong was also trembling, searching for treasures everywhere, and I also heard that it was because of something wrong, he expressed regret several times in front of people, and even inquired about the words of some officials in the East Palace, Geng Nanzhong had already pleaded guilty several times in front of the prince.

Everything confirms that Zheng Zhi's words are not fake, and even beyond Tong Guan's expectations, Tong Guan naturally will not know that Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, is being carried forward by Wang Huang, these things come out, Tong Guan also informed that Zhao Kai is determined to fight.

After thinking about it, Tong Guan really went to meet Zhao Huan, although it was not a name or anything like that, he also wanted to communicate and express some meaning. The communication between people also requires a process, not to come forward and bow down, and immediately the brotherhood is like the depth of the sea. Tong Guan started this process, and as for whether to do it in depth, it depends on Tong Guan's ability to judge the situation.

In two days, all the handovers, from the big seal of the envoy, to the emperor's signature and jade seal, and the document handover channels of the three provinces and six ministries, were all in place, and Zheng Zhi also arrived at the time of going north.

Before leaving, Zheng Zhi went to visit Tong Guan again, firstly, to resign, and secondly, to ask something.

As soon as the night ended, Zheng Zhi watched the meal arrive at Tong Guan's mansion, and he didn't need Tong Guan's orders, and the housekeeper naturally knew that he had to prepare more for dinner tonight.

At the dinner table, the two had a few drinks, and Tong Guan said: "Tomorrow you are going north, today I also discussed it in the Privy Council, there is not much food in the yamen, and the household department is also stretched, and you still have to take care of the food and salary yourself." ”

"Enxiang, the head came to the holy decree, let the various state capitals in Hebei cooperate with the levy, the matter of military pay is not a big problem, now there is only one place to think about, that is, this matter to ask Enxiang." Zheng Zhi is here, and things other than resignation are about to be said.

"Tell me about it." Tong Guan stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of mutton and replied.

"Daimyo's Mansion." Zheng Zhi's words are concise and to the point. When Zheng Zhi and Tong Guan communicated, the two had already formed a lot of tacit understanding, and many words did not need to be broken, just like playing dumb riddles, but the two of them understood each other in their hearts. In fact, the two of them also feel very comfortable in this mode of communication, and it is really easy for smart people to speak.

Tong Guanyan's movements stopped when he heard this, and the mutton that was originally going to be stuffed into his mouth was put in a bowl, and even the chopsticks were also placed on the table.

The housekeeper who was waiting next to him hurriedly handed over the cloth towel soaked in hot water, Tong Guan took the cloth towel and wiped his hands, and wiped the corners of his mouth on both sides.

This process is also the process of Tong Guan's thinking, after Tong Guan handed the cloth towel to the housekeeper, he raised his hand and waved, and everyone in the hall went out.

"It's time to show some colors and people." Tong Guan spoke slowly, and there was a slight light in his eyes.

Zheng Zhi nodded when he heard this, and only said: "If you have a word of kindness, I will feel at ease." Let's look at my means. ”

Tong Guan instructed again: "If you act strictly, you can't have a chance to turn over." ”

"Eun Xiang is relieved." Zheng Zhi said categorically, and then picked up the wine glass to salute.
