In the two months of fighting with Kong Yanzhou, Wang Shen and Kong Shu, two old friends, have not met several times in total. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wang Shen and Du Shu rode side by side on horseback, and when they saw Du Shu's tanned face because he was busy all day, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This simple and kind old friend, since he single-handedly provoked the entire local civil administration, is about to die of exhaustion. You know, he is a person who eats and waits for death, and takes being a rich idler as his ideal in life!

"Brother Yue, why did you think about sending medicinal herbs to the troops this time?" Wang Shen asked with a smile.

Du Shu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said angrily: "Daosi, you beat Qi and Huang to a mess, now it's okay, you will directly lead the troops to Anlu, but throw a mess to me." The Qichun City is full of white bones, and the stench is overwhelming, it is simply hell on earth. In order to collect the bones of the dead, many people have been infected with the plague. I thought about it, this time our army attacked Zhang, Cao and other thieves, and I don't know how many days it will take. The weather is hot, and it would be bad if there was a big epidemic in the army, so I collected some herbs and sent them over, hoping to come in handy...... Why, Dawth doesn't seem to welcome me? ”

Seeing Wang Shen's calm face, Du Shu's eyes widened and he was dissatisfied.

"No, no, no, how could I not welcome Brother Yoo. It's just that I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the appointment this time. ”

"Why, why can't I understand?"

Wang Shen said: "Don't look at the thief army of 100,000 people, but in a certain opinion, it is easy to destroy them all, and the difficulty of this battle is not even as good as the Qichun siege battle." ”

"Also, if there is a field war, my Sizhou army really hasn't been afraid of anyone?" Du Shu became happy and had a simple smile on his face.

After Wang Shen asked about the government affairs of the counties in the two states, he said, "How is Ling Ai's body now, and when was she born?" ”

Du Shu said with a smile: "The little girl is fine, it is estimated that it is time for a cold day, and she has already found Lang Zhong to rely on the pulse, saying that the fetus is extremely stable." ”

Wang Shen smiled, Yue Yun is a strong man, the daughter of the Du family is rough-handed, the husband and wife have good genes, and the children born are naturally extremely strong, so there is nothing to worry about.

Du Shu asked: "Daosi, you asked me to come and talk, won't you just say this, please talk about it in the future." ”

"There is an important matter, an appointment. Now that the Jurchens have returned to the north and the Yangtze River is unimpeded, it is estimated that you will have to go to Jiankang Mansion and bring a letter to Du Xianggong for me. In addition, I have already given an order to the sailor, ordering Wu Tuo to choose two large ships and bring a hundred elite armorers to accompany you. As he spoke, he took out a letter he had just written from his sleeve and handed it to Du Shu: "If it is convenient to make an appointment, set off immediately, the sooner the better." ”

"What are you going to do in Jiankang?" Du Shu was stunned: "If you really want to write a letter to my uncle, send someone who is careful, why let me go there myself." I have so many government affairs on hand, if I go to Jiankang, how can it take a month or two to come and go, wouldn't it delay the right business? ”

"Haha, you are a person who is used to being comfortable and chic, when did you become so industrious? I am the brother who met the appointment, and I am too tired and hard in the past few months, and I have the heart to give you a vacation, so that you can go to Jinling to live happily for a few days, which is counted as a benefit. If you don't go, then I'll go to someone else. ”

"Go, go, why not." Du Shu likes food and clothes, likes to travel in the mountains and rivers, and does not like mundane affairs. I have been busy all day in the past few months, and I am already depressed, and I have long wanted to put down everything and have fun for a while. Hearing Wang Shen's words, he hurriedly snatched the letter: "I really have to go to this matter, and no one can rob it." ”

Wang Shen continued to laugh: "I knew you wouldn't shirk." By the way, if Du Xianggong likes something, if he knows, load a car for him and send it over. ”

Du Chong thought for a while and said, "Uncle really doesn't have any hobbies, and he doesn't care about gold and silver wealth, so he doesn't need it." "If you want to say what Du Chong likes, Du Shu's nephew naturally knows: that is power.

Of course, it's not good to say this in front of Wang Shen, for His Holiness!

Wang Shen: "Then don't send gold and silver treasures, it's a little cheesy, only carefully select some of Huangzhou's specialties." ”

Du Shu suddenly looked at Wang Shen suspiciously: "Daosi, no, you must have asked me to be a lobbyist when you asked me to see my uncle this time, what exactly do you want to do, even if you say it clearly." ”

"There's such a thing." Wang Shen pondered for a moment and said: "To tell you the truth, this letter is a little suggestion from me to Du Xiang, but it involves a lot of things, and even shocking the world, and it may not be fun for Du Xianggong." If you send someone else, I'm afraid that you will be beaten out by Du Xiang immediately. After all, you are the son and nephew of Xianggong, and Du Xiang will not do anything to you. What you say, he can also listen to the old man. ”

"Something terrible, let's hear about it." Du Shu still looked disapproving, as a good old man, he immediately slapped his chest loudly: "Dao Si rest assured, with your friendship with me, your business is my business." If I don't do this, I won't come back to see you. ”

"Don't pack the ticket so quickly." Wang Shen saw that he was puzzled, so he smiled, the packing ticket was a term that only existed in the Ming Dynasty, Du Shu naturally didn't understand, so he lowered his voice and said: "That's the case, I want to ask you to persuade Du Xiangjuan to ask the official family to return to Jiankang." ”

"Ahh Du Shu couldn't help but scream and almost fell off the horse.

Since Taizu won the country, the Great Song Dynasty had four capitals, Beijing Daimyo's Mansion, Tokyo Kaifeng Mansion, Xijing Henan Mansion, Nanjing Yingtian Mansion, but the real capital and the imperial palace and central organs were located in Kaifeng.

Jingkang was disgraced, Tokyo fell, and Zhao Gou first succeeded to the throne in Nanjing. He was frightened by the Jurchens, and even if Tokyo was recovered, he felt that this place was too close to the Jin Kingdom, and as long as the enemy was willing, he could cross the Yellow River at any time and fight him.

So, he fled all the way south.

Zhao Gou first set up his line in Yangzhou, and then couldn't stay in Yangzhou, so he crossed the river and fled to Jinling, how to take this place as his capital. Later, seeing that the Jurchens were showing signs of going south, they felt that Jiankang was still too close to the enemy, so they simply fled to Hangzhou in one go. Changed the name of Hangzhou to Lin'an Mansion, and planned to live here in the future.

Today, Lin'an City is already the de facto capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou probably loved the beauty of Hangzhou's landscapes, and had no idea of returning to Jinling, and began to use the treasury to begin to repair and build the city and implement rule.

It can be said that now all the resources of half of the Jiangnan are invested in Hangzhou, and now it is too big to invite the official family back to Jinling. Not only is Zhao Gou unwilling in his heart, but he is afraid that the court officials are also unwilling.

If Du Chong asks for a play, then he has to take the risk of offending the officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the official family, which is very unwise.

Although Du Shu has no scheming, he understands this truth.

Du Shu: "Daosi, this matter is so important, my uncle has his own decision in his heart, we are humble and light, how can we point fingers at the major affairs of the court?" ”

Besides, the martial arts meddling in the country's major politics was a taboo in the politics of the Song Dynasty, and one would be crushed if he was not careful.

How can Wang Shen not understand this truth, in fact, the Song Dynasty was the worst era for martial artists, and there were more taboos. For example, depending on civil officials, he was involved in the political struggle of the imperial court.

However, since he threw himself into Du Chong's door, his feet have been wet. When the Song and Jin armistice are held in the future, and the two countries usher in a period of peace that is not long or short, Zhao Laojiu will do his best to hide the bow, and the cunning rabbit will die and cook the lackey, and he will turn back to clean up the leading generals.

He has no relationship with Zhao Gou, and leading such a strong army as the Sizhou Army to occupy the important town of Jianghan will inevitably become the first target to be attacked. Besides, he, Wang Shen, is a modern person, and he can't be as low as Han Shizhong in front of the emperor, and he doesn't even want personality.

Today, I tried my best to take down Jiang Han at such a big price, and in the end, I inevitably had to give up everything I had at hand.

At that time, will you be willing?

The so-called those who do not plan for a time cannot plan for a lifetime, and many things must be prepared now.

Yes, as a military general of the Song Dynasty, he was not involved in the party and government of the imperial court, and always regarded himself as the emperor's lackey, and the imperial court told him to do whatever he wanted, which was indeed a good policy for Mingzhe to protect himself. But now that he has become a cadre of the Du Party, his feet are already wet if he doesn't get wet.

Then, now we must do our best to strengthen the power of the Du Party. As long as Du Chong can cover the sky with one hand in the court, reach the height of Cai Jing, and have him to take care of him, after I, Wang Shen, take Jianghan, no one will be able to take this fast land away from me.

Du Chong is now the right minister, and Jiankang is left behind, in charge of all the soldiers and horses in Jianghuai, and on the surface, it seems that he has no power for a while. But there is a big problem in this, he is far away in health, and the capital of the small dynasty of the Southern Song Dynasty is in Hangzhou.

As the minister of political affairs, he has been out of the center for a long time, and the movement of the court is fed back to his ears, and if he wants to make a move, the daylily is cold. That's right, the reason why Du Chong can have today's status is not because he has the talent to help the country. In fact, this is a cowardly, brutal, narrow-minded villain. The crux of the matter is that Du Chong used to be just a small prefect, and he was promoted to the right minister step by step after he met by fate and fell into Zhao Gou's eyes. It can be said that Du Gongmei can also be regarded as a protégé of the Son of Heaven, Zhao Laojiu's face.

In real history, after Du Chong surrendered to the Jurchens, Zhao Gou suffered a major blow, did not eat all day long, and said angrily: "I treat Du Chong and let him go from a concubine to an official and worship the prime minister, which can be called a great favor, why did he rebel?" ”

It can be seen that Zhao Gou and Du Chong have feelings.

That being said, the relationship between people needs to be moved around a lot to be affectionate. If you don't shake in front of the emperor for a long time, even Zailong's holy family will gradually fade away.

Therefore, the only way now is to let Zhao Gou return to Jiankang. When the time comes, with Du Chong's affection in front of the emperor, coupled with his military power in the Jianghuai armies, he will surely become a generation of ministers.

At that time, even if others want to move Wang Shen, that is, if they move Du Xiang's right-hand man, they have to consider the consequences they will endure.

Wang Shen: "Du Xiang's affairs are complicated, and some things may not be imagined, so he thinks so deeply. The people below us have to think of it first for his old man. Yes, we don't care about court politics, but you don't care about politics, politics wants to care about you. We share the weal and woe with Du Xiang, and we are closely related, how can we stay out of the matter. About it, you are also an old man in the officialdom, this matter is very important, why can't you think it through? ”

Du Shu: "I'm an old man in officialdom, I wasn't an official at the beginning, just a small official." Since Daosi asked me to take a trip to Jiankang, then I'll go. After coming out for so long, I still miss the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

At the thought of the busy official tour that could be put in his hand, Du Tongju became happy.

The old friend is a rich and virtuous man who likes to play, Wang Shen naturally knows this, and he doesn't say anything, and says with a smile: "You just go, as for what I want to tell Du Xiang, it's all written in the letter, and you can hand it over on your behalf." The stakes are so high that you must not tell anyone about it. ”

"Know, know." Du Shu couldn't help nodding.
