Early in the morning of the second day after Du Shu arrived in Jiankang, Du Chong went to Lin'an by official ship, saying that there was an urgent government affairs in the political affairs hall that needed to be dealt with. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn addition, there are military affairs that need to be faced.

Du Shu guessed that there were two things about the master's visit to the official family in Lin'an Mansion this time.

The first is to ask for credit for Wang Shen and himself, and ask for an official position. Today's Wang Daosi and the Sizhou army are already the most capable troops under his uncle, and they are also his façade. Especially after pacifying Jiang Khan, it can be said that he earned enough face for Du Xianggong. It is conceivable that Wang Shen will become his big helper in the future. It's just that the current Wang Shen official is too low, and if he wants to play a greater role in the future, he must be placed in a higher position.

Du Youzhi is a quiet person, as long as there are alcoholic beauties every day, money to spend, and wind and snow, he doesn't care about the size of his official position. The higher the position, the greater the responsibility, and the more trouble, which is not necessarily a good thing in his opinion. However, if Wang Shen is good enough to be promoted by the imperial court and show his ambitions, he is still very happy.

Secondly, the uncle should go to the official family to be healthy. Du Shu thinks that this matter is good, as long as the court moves back to Jiankang, the Son of Heaven guards the country. As the whole army in charge of the entire Jianghuai, the uncle who is in charge of the defense of the Yangtze River will naturally be reused by the officials, and he may not be able to dominate the world in the future. It's just that the resistance to this matter is too great, and it will cause a big mess.

Thinking of this, Du Shu unconsciously became worried.

Worry is worry, but life has to be lived. After living in Du Mansion for two days, Du Youzhi put this matter behind him, and took Hu Cong to travel in the mountains and rivers, read, poetry and wine all day long, but he was also happy.

Unconsciously half a moon passed, and on this day, he was listening to music in a tea house, and a family member of Du Mansion rushed over: "Master Du, I can be regarded as looking for you, hurry up, hurry up and go back to the house with me, and the husband is back." ”

"Ah, my uncle has already returned to Jiankang?"

The family smiled and said, "Just arrived, the old man called the little one to look for you before he could catch his breath." Hehe, if you want to come to Jianghan for a great victory, the reward of the imperial court has come down. The little ones naturally have to come to the old man quickly, and they can also beg for tea. ”

Du Shu was greatly surprised, and threw a dime of broken silver over: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

When he returned to the mansion, Du Chongzheng was laughing with the two doormen in the hall, and when he saw him coming, he waved his hand to let the doorman retreat.

Du Shu hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute: "My nephew has seen my uncle, and my uncle has been tired all the way and has been reduced." ”

Du Chong looked in a very good mood today, and helped him up: "No need to be polite, you are also a member of the fourth grade." ”

"Positive four products...... This ......" Du Shu was taken aback and hurriedly asked: "But the reward of the imperial court has come down?" ”

"Naturally, the military feats of pacifying Jing Chu are not small, this is the first decent victory of our dynasty in the years of Jianyan, if you don't reward it, the people will not be convinced. Moreover, now the imperial court is using troops everywhere to recruit rogues from all over the world. If there is no reward for meritorious service, the commanders of all armies are afraid that they will not be willing to contribute. Du Chong laughed: "The holy decree has been sent to Huangzhou, and the imperial court has appointed you as the doctor of the guard, the observer of Yongzhou, and the actual appointment of Ezhou." Haha, Du Fujun is also on the pastoral side now. Du Chong couldn't help but make a joke of his nephew.

"Uncle is teasing the little nephew, nephew, thank you uncle for your support."

Without waiting for Du Shu to ask, Du Chong said: "About Zhi, you probably have to ask about Wang Shen's official position, right?" ”

Du Shu: "I was about to ask." ”

Du Chong: "The Shenwu deputy army is under control, Jinghu North Road and Xiangyang North Road recruit envoys, and the middle doctor is served." ”

"Recruit the Messenger!" Du Shu took a breath of cold air and was also startled. Although Wang Shen used to be a defense envoy and an envoy, his status was completely different.

The defense envoy is nothing more than a local regimental training officer, while the recruiting envoy is the highest military commander in the entire Jinghu region, and the pacification envoy and local officials in the jurisdiction are restrained. It is possible to act cheaply militarily, and to appoint state and county officials on its own in civil affairs. In the new system formulated by the imperial court this year, even Li Heng's position is under the influence of the envoy.

To put it simply, the current Wang Shen is already the first person in the military and political affairs in the entire Jinghu area, and the emperor of the soil who opened his teeth and built a mansion.

Of course, my Great Song Dynasty was noble and martial, and Wang Shen couldn't control Li Heng.

This can also be understood, since the establishment of the Yan years, the world is in turmoil, and the imperial court uses troops everywhere. The generals who can fight are pulled back and forth, and there are only a few people such as Liu Guangshi, Han Shizhong, and Zhang Jun. And these three people have not had any outstanding performance on the battlefield in the past year, but Wang Shen has made great progress in Jianghan, which has greatly boosted the morale of the people in the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty.

However, directly promoting Wang Shen from a small defense envoy to a recruiting envoy on the Jiezhen side was too fast, and he was only one step away from Xuanfu Envoy. And the Xuanfu envoy is even more amazing, that is the function of the old and small species, and it is called the kind of public.

"It seems that my uncle is going to promote Wang Daosi to become a century-old general like the old species." Du Shu thought secretly in his heart, and also mentioned that Wang Shen was excited.

Seeing Du Shu's excitement and doubts, Du Chong snorted: "The country is employing people, and now there are not many people who can fight, what about promotion?" Hmph, just this year, Zhang Jun and Zhang Boying were also reappointed as the commander of the Shenwu Right Army, and led the envoys of the two towns of Dingjiang and Zhaoqing, saying that they were rewarded for their efforts in recruiting bandits from the southeast. Except for Liu Guangshi and Han Shizhong, the southeastern military horses were all under his control. Can the southeast group of thieves compare with Zhang Yong, Cao Cheng, and Kong Yanzhou of Jianghan? The so-called southeast group of thieves is just a group of thieves, and Zhang Jun dared to take the risk without a few levels of success. Even he made a festival envoy, according to the old man, Wang Shen was a solicitation envoy, but the court owed him. ”

"Indeed, if Wang Daosi is not rewarded for his great achievements, then there is no heavenly reason. However, didn't my uncle say that your old man and Fan Zongyin, the chief executive of the political affairs hall, and the privy envoy are not on good terms, and your uncle is carrying Wang Daosi, can they nod? ”

Du Chong laughed: "Wang Shen opened his teeth to build a mansion, and Jiezhen was on the side, so that Jinghu and Jiankang were in charge of the two river defense points for me Du, and the old man's words and deeds were related to the safety of the world, so they naturally refused." There were also many objections in the court, but unfortunately they were all refuted by a certain person and were speechless, and in the end, they could only knock out their front teeth and swallow blood. ”

Du Shu was puzzled: "I also asked my uncle to solve my nephew's doubts." ”

Du Chong said proudly: "Fan Zongyin is a scholar, he has no foundation in the court, and after entering the political affairs hall, he also wants to do things to establish his authority." What is the most important thing in the year of Jianyan -- military -- today's great rivers are in difficulty, and there are many thieves like cattle hairs, attacking prefectures and counties, and suppressing them endlessly. Moreover, there are too many rules for the use of troops in our court, and when an army of more than 100 people is dispatched out of the garrison for 100 miles, it needs the military talisman of the military department. If, back and forth, wait until the formalities are completed. The troops are finally ready to go out, and the thieves don't know where to go. ”

In view of this, the surname Fan said that Taizu took back the power of the feudal towns, and the world was peaceful for 150 years, which can be described as a good policy. However, the country is difficult, the Quartet is weak, and the disadvantages of this law lie in the disadvantage of hanging their hands and looking around. Now it is time to restore the method of establishing feudal towns a little, divide the land of dozens of prefectures in Henan and Jiangbei, and entrust them with military power, so that they can defend the imperial family. Isn't it a far cry from those who gave up their land to Yidi? ”

Du Chong is an old Fan, in fact, the current Fan Zongyin is only in his thirties, not much older than Wang Shen, and in the history of the Great Song Dynasty, he is the youngest prime minister.

However, this talent has a limit, and he is also wooden, like an old man in his fifties and sixties, without the vigor that a young man should have.

Du Chong: "The proposal to set up a feudal town was said by Lao Fan, and the official family also agreed. There are Jurchens on Jing Chu's side, and they are the former Tokyo Left-behind Division and the Manichaean demons, and it is the right time to set up a military town. If Wang Shen is not allowed to do this trick, should Li Heng do it? Li Yanping has no soldiers and no food in his hands, he has been to Jianghan for so long, but he has fought a battle and recovered a place? ”

So, the official family agreed. Hehe, the town of the domain is what Lao Fan himself said, if he doesn't agree this time, he has to pinch his nose and agree, is it possible that he spit out saliva and eat it back? ”

Du Shu couldn't help laughing: "Uncle is smart! ”

The uncle and nephew laughed.

Du Chong: "By the way, you still have a position, as a judge in Wang Shen's recruitment system, and you are Wang Shen's deputy." You should also pay more attention to the affairs of the military envoys. ”

Du Shu said: "Uncle, my nephew doesn't know about military affairs, so I really don't want to do this." In the past, I was only in charge of civil affairs. ”

"It's a useless one." Du Chong scolded him a few words and nodded: "That's right, the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and you can manage the civil affairs." The Sizhou army was cultivated by the old man, and they were all guarded. It is necessary to prevent Li Yanping from moving his crooked eyes. Li Heng can't meddle in military affairs, and he will inevitably covet local civil affairs, so you have to keep an eye on him. If there is something, the old man will make the decision for you. ”

"Yes, uncle." Du Shu's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask, welcome the Son of Heaven." ”

"It's not easy to deal with this, the movement is too big, and the official family seems to be very resistant to Jiankang Mansion."

"Please ask for advice."

Du said angrily: "The official family is also timid, afraid of women like tigers, he plans to live in Hangzhou from now on." It is said that the official family has the idea of changing the yuan, and the year name has been determined, which is Shaoxing. Shaoxing Shaoxing, don't you see anything? He said that Zhao Gou was afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and he himself was not the same.

When he was in Tokyo, he heard that the Jurchens were coming, and fled to Jiankang without firing an arrow, causing two-thirds of the country to fall. When the Chinese people mentioned him, they all gritted their teeth and hated him.

Du Shu was stunned: "How is that good?" ”

Du Chong suddenly smiled: "However, Wang Shen's letter to the old man seems to have anticipated this matter, and he also came up with an idea, the old man was busy with this matter after staying in Hangzhou for many days a while ago. ”

Without waiting for Du Shu to ask, Du Chong said: "Although the idea is a bad idea, you might as well try it."
