Since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin originally wanted to reward Wu Yongzi for meritorious deeds, but after that, Wu Yongzi had no desire and no desire, and now that the Great Song Dynasty has been established, he will not bother himself, he plans to travel the world and save the people of the world, so he said to Zhao Kuangyin: "Your Majesty doesn't know if you still remember the dream of the year?" ”

Zhao Kuangyin recalled that dream and suddenly blurted out: "Oh? It turns out that the boy in the dream is you! ”

"Your Majesty finally remembered. Yes, the young man is me, I was a white Ding, now the beginning of the Great Song Dynasty, naturally with my senior brother to assist, and I am used to the clouds and wild cranes, I like to travel to the famous mountains and rivers, Your Majesty might as well reward me Huashan as a famous mountain, send me some silver, I want to travel the mountains and rivers. Wu Yongzi said directly.

"This, why doesn't the Dao Chief stay to assist my Great Song?"

"Your Majesty, the poor road is easy to play, please fulfill Your Majesty!"

"This ...... Since there is no Yongzi Taoist like this, I will decree that Huashan is a famous mountain, and Taoism is a famous view, and from then on, the incense will continue to enjoy the world. I also agreed to the request of the Taoist chief, if there is something in the future, you can go to Kaifeng to find me. ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, thank Your Majesty."

After that, Zhao Kuangyin issued an edict to reward Huashan, and sent Wuyongzi ten thousand taels of silver, and Wuyongzi since leaving Kaifeng, all the way south, visiting famous mountains and rivers.

And Wu Yongzi took advantage of the search for famous mountains and rivers, and secretly helped to find the talents that Zhao Dezhao needed.

——————————————————————

In the first year of Jianlong, at the beginning of June, the city of Zezhou was broken, Li Yun raised the fire**, and Emperor Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty exempted Zezhou from the land rent of the year, and then the Song army turned to attack Luzhou, and Li Shoujie surrendered to the city.

Then Emperor Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty issued an order to take Li Shoujie as the group training in Shanzhou, exempt the land rent of the year within 30 miles near Luzhou, and record the descendants of the fallen generals and Ding Fu for three years.

June 15, Kaifeng City, Privy Council.

Wang Pu, Fan Zhen, Wang Pu, Wei Ren, Miao Xun, Zhao Pu and Zhao Dezhao received the battle report of pacifying Li Yun in front, their faces were happy, and now they are all relieved, but Li Chongjin in the south is always a scourge, if Li Chongjin rebels, Jiangnan will be in chaos for a while, and now the Great Song Dynasty has finally stabilized, and what is most needed at this moment is stability.

The matters to be discussed today are how to prevent Li Chongjin's rebellion, and how to mobilize a large army to the south to quell the rebellion as soon as possible after Li Chongjin's rebellion, and several ministers and Zhao Dezhao have different views on this.

Wang Pu and others think that Li Chongjin should be appeased now, such as adding officials to the knighthood, and last time Li Chongjin's staff Zhai Shouxun had told His Majesty about Li Chongjin's rebellious heart, and now His Majesty has asked Zhai Shouxun to calm Li Chongjin, but Li Yun's rebel rebellion has been quelled, if Li Chongjin knew that he was kept in the dark, he might immediately pull up the banner of rebellion.

It's just that now the imperial army is all in the north, and the southern army is empty, so I don't know how to deal with it now.

And Zhao Dezhao thought that Li Chongjin would rebel sooner or later, so it was better to transfer him out of Huainan and provoke him to rebel. Moreover, it is estimated that Li Chongjin's army will be in the hands of the imperial court before he rebels, so it is estimated that the consequences of the rebellion can be mitigated, and Li Chongjin's rebellion in history will be due to Zhai Shouxun's prodding, if it were not for Zhai Shouxun, then Li Chongjin estimated that he would not have rebelled so early for a while and a half, and Zhai Shouxun has been friends with his father Zhao Kuangyin for many years, but Li Chongjin doesn't know, it's really ridiculous, but keeping Li Chongjin will be a scourge sooner or later, so it's better to force the rebellion as soon as possible.

In this regard, other ministers have different comments, if one is not handled well, let Li Chongjin rebel in advance, but Zhao Dezhao thinks that Li Chongjin's rebellion is not to be afraid, but to investigate the situation in Huainan first, Zhao Dezhao suddenly remembered Liu Renzhan, this person is still in Huainan, the first general of the Tang State in the past is none other than him, and Liu Renzhan, who is now in his sixties, does not know what is happening now?

And Wang Pu and others are in awe of Liu Renzhan's prestige, in the Huainan War of that year, Liu Renzhan relied on his own strength to stubbornly resist the Zhou army, so that the Zhou army suffered a lot, and now Liu Renzhan has been a Song Chen, if it were not for the strength of his Changchun Hall back then, I am afraid that Liu Renzhan would also be as fateful as in history.

However, it was time to play the role of Liu Renzhan, and in the Privy Council, the result of the final deliberation was that the imperial court secretly issued an order to Liu Renzhan, the envoy of the Tianping Army in Shouzhou City, and ordered Liu Renzhan to closely monitor Li Chongjin in Yangzhou City, secretly mobilized 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Zhongzheng Army, allowed to recruit 10,000 soldiers, opened a warehouse to transfer grain, requisitioned 10,000 people, and prepared their own grain and grass.

At the same time, Song Shi was sent south to Shouzhou, Chuzhou, and Yangzhou to monitor and stabilize the situation.

Then secretly Zhao Dezhao also sent Changchun Tang's secret agents and warriors to pay close attention to the situation in Yangzhou City, and now Yangzhou Guangwei Restaurant has occupied most of the city, and as a restaurant, it is also a place to collect intelligence secretly, in a few months, it has collected a lot of evidence that Li Chongjin wants to rebel, and at the behest of Zhao Dezhao, it is also necessary to protect Zhai Shouxun's safety, ensure that Li Chongjin does not know that Zhai Shouxun has defected to the Song court, secretly monitor Li Chongjin, and be sure not to let him know about Zezhou and Luzhou.

After that, Zhao Dezhao sent 100,000 people to expedite in the name of the prison country and sent it to Zhao Kuangyin in the front.

In late June, Zhao Kuangyin's army returned to Beijing.

After Liu Renzhan received the will of the imperial court, he stepped up his efforts to train soldiers, requisition grain and grass, requisition of people, construction of fortifications, and excavation of trenches.

In less than a month, in mid-July, 40,000 troops had been trained in Shouzhou City, and the entire Shouzhou City began to enter the defensive stage.

And since Zhai Shouxun returned to Huainan Yangzhou, he pretended that he had completed Li Chongjin's mission and had discussed an alliance with Li Yun in Luzhou, but he later said: "Li Yun has already suffered defeat in Zezhou City, and Li Yun is stubborn and self-serving, does not listen to the advice of his advisers, abandons the good Luzhou, and instead moves the camp to Zezhou City, which is short-sighted, and soon Li Yun is about to be defeated, how can the lord form an alliance with such a person, it is better to wait and see the changes and see the situation clearly." ”

And although Li Chongjin has a heavy army, but after returning to Beijing in the first month, at the beginning of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin not only did not weaken his troops, but also appeased himself, I don't know what Zhao Kuangyin played, and although he already had the mind of not being a minister, he was still afraid that the court might have known his mind and did it deliberately, and when he opened the seal, Zhao Kuangyin also gave himself a death-free token, saying that he could tolerate himself.

And he presented himself to Zhao Kuangyin as a minister for the first time, in order to save his life. After Li Yun's rebellion, he was suspicious, afraid that Zhao Kuangyin would secretly attack him, and could not tolerate him, and planned to collude with Li Yun to rebel together, but now the soldiers and horses have not been mobilized, and his advisers went to the land of Luzhou, and also thought that Li Yun's rebellion could not succeed, and advised himself to be careful, so Li Chongjin was entangled, and he temporarily put down the idea of rebellion.

It's late July, and the weather is hot, the hottest season of the year.

In Kaifeng, Zhao Dezhao has been in the Privy Council for a few days, and a few days ago he planned to go to Huainan in person to visit Jiangnan in the name of investigation.

So I went to Wang Pu's mansion and talked about it, but Wang Pu thought it was impossible, although the situation in Jiangnan seems to be stable, it is actually secretly turbulent, the prince is young and must not leave Beijing, and Zhao Dezhao is now the only dragon son of the emperor today, which is really dangerous.

When Zhao Dezhao heard this, he suddenly felt helpless, now that he is a prince, it is indeed a lot of inconvenience, and Wang Pu is also right. It's just that I went to Huainan this time, and there were many important things, one was to go to Shouzhou, visit the old general Liu Renzhan, and review the army; Instead, he went to Chuzhou, and heard that Wuyongzi is now in Chuzhou City; The third is to go to Yangzhou, but not with great fanfare, but a private visit to Yangzhou City, of course, not only for Li Chongjin, but also to see the situation of Guangwei Building in Yangzhou City.

However, things on the surface can tell Wang Pu that some things are better hidden.

Wang Pu thinks that Zhao Dezhao must be for Li Chongjin's matter, and Li Chongjin is indeed tricky, he is like a timed * bomb * bomb, I don't know when it will be detonated, if Li Chongjin rebels, he occupies Yangzhou, and then divides Huainan, then it is dangerous, the important thing is that the south of the Yangtze River is still where the Tang State is located, if Li Chongjin unites the Tang State to go north, then the Great Song Dynasty will be in turmoil.

And going to Huainan must be full of dangers, if Li Chongjin finds out, Zhao Dezhao is afraid that he will either be kidnapped or coerced, and he will lose his life if he doesn't get it right, so Wang Pu has no choice but to support Zhao Dezhao to take such a risk.

But will Zhao Dezhao do this? He left Wang Pu's mansion and returned to the palace, intending to tell his father about the matter.

In the Zide Palace, he met Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin is naturally reviewing the folds, now that he is the emperor, he is not as free as he used to march and fight, he has no choice but to assume the responsibility of being the emperor, and he has every opportunity.

At this moment, when he heard the advice of the chamberlain, Zhao Kuangyin stopped the pen in his hand, saw Zhao Dezhao coming, and immediately let him enter the hall.

"See Daddy!"

"What's the matter with Zhao'er?"

"Daddy, Zhao'er wants to go to Huainan in person to solve problems for Daddy."

"To Huainan? It's too dangerous there, Zhao'er is so child's play, don't you know: 'The son of a daughter doesn't sit in the hall', it's not a joke to risk his life, not to mention that marching and fighting is not a child's play, you are still young now, or learn the way of governing the country with Wang Xiang and them. ”

"Daddy, what Zhao'er said is serious, I secretly hid from my family back then, and went to Huainan with Zhao Xin and a few of them, and I also risked my life. It's just that now Zhao'er, as a prince, must solve problems for the country, and now that Li Chongjin has no traces of rebellion, if this matter is not done well, the scope of the impact will be greater, and the people will suffer at that time, and the people's livelihood will be difficult, which will make Zhao'er feel uneasy! ”

"But, Zhao'er, if it weren't for Liu Renzhan and a few generals sitting in Huainan now, there would be no problem, so why should you take the risk yourself!"

"Daddy, don't worry, the child has a trick, if Li Chongjin rebels, let him end up defeated in one day!"

"Oh?!!! Why did Zhao'er say this, are you a three-year-old child when you are a father? ”

"Ahh

"This ......" Zhao Kuangyin knew the stubbornness of his child, back then

"Daddy, if Daddy is not at ease this time, he can let the child go to Huainan as a messenger, from this identity, Daddy is still afraid to worry, if he is not at ease, he can send the secret agents of Wude Division to follow secretly, Zhao Xin Their armed Daddy is not at ease!"

"This ......"

"Ah, Daddy, could it be that after you became the emperor, you didn't have the guts?"

"This ...... How can Zhao'er say this about Daddy, Daddy is now the king of a country, this word and deed is naturally an example for the world, and Zhao'er should also learn from Daddy. ”

"Uh...... Daddy, did you say yes? It's better for my father to make an order immediately, and tomorrow my Qincha will be able to set off! If you're worried about me, why don't you send General Wan Song with me? ”

"Okay, Daddy has obeyed you, and I'll let the waiter give an order later, and I'll leave tomorrow. But before leaving the capital, there is a happy event to tell you, your mother is pregnant. ”

"Really? Congratulations to my father. ”

"Really, I hope I won't be as naughty as you, otherwise Daddy will have to suffer, haha! However, Wan Song is a loyal person with excellent martial arts, and I am relieved that Wan Song and Zhao Xin are here on this trip. You go back to the dormitory first, and then let the maid help you pack up your belongings for the south. ”

"Zhao'er retires!"

Zhao Dezhao left the Zide Hall and returned to his dormitory. Because although Li Yuanchang and others are old people in the original mansion, they are not internal servants after all, so they are all in the Kaifeng Zhao Mansion.

And the maid Chunhua and Qiuxiang have grown up and have long been married to other women.

And those who serve Zhao Dezhao's life are a few new servants, and these servants, Zhao Dezhao is naturally no stranger, and these are the ones who served him in the first life, so he has a familiar feeling in his heart, if he doesn't know, I'm afraid he will be depressed in the past few months.

"Little nobleman, tomorrow I will leave the capital and go to Huainan, help me prepare some things, and there will be an inner servant to clean it up later."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Then Zhao Dezhao met several relatives and officially left the capital tomorrow. And Zhao Kuangyin has already issued an order to make Zhao Dezhao a messenger, and he was ordered to inspect the prefectures and counties in Huainan.

Early the next morning, July 24, south of the city

Zhao Dezhao went to Guangwei Building early in the morning and had breakfast by the way, and now everyone in Guangwei Building knows that the owner of Guangwei Building is the son of today, as if he had taken stimulants. Early in the morning, His Royal Highness kept calling, and Zhao Dezhao reluctantly asked them to call the owner Ershun.

At the time of [Mao Shi], a big ship and three small boats had already docked at the Bianhe Wharf, waiting for Zhao Dezhao's arrival.

And today, there are many officials on the court on the wharf, this time it is Zhao Xingzhao, the king of Liangjun, who went to the Jianghuai Dynasty to patrol the sky, and the accompanying officials have come to see each other, and the whole wharf is full of people, and the hats and wings are like a forest, all of which are hundreds of officials in the court.

Wang Pu had heard from last night that the emperor had ordered Zhao Dezhao, the king of Liangjun, to be the minister of the Qin mission to the south to patrol the south of the Yangtze River, so he entered the palace late at night, intending to dispel the emperor's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, this is a big matter, and it is related to the survival of the society, and you must not be careless in appointing candidates. Although the eldest son of the emperor Dezhao is virtuous, diligent and slack, calm in temperament, and in line with the classics, he grew up in the palace, and he did not know the affairs of the local people, and he had never taken on such a heavy responsibility, such a critical matter...... It's not inevitable that there will be a loss of virtue, and the official family should think twice. ”

"What Wen Bo said, I already know, but the eldest son of the emperor is persistent, and along the way, accompanied by the officials of the Wude Division, and guarded by the guards Wan Song, Zhao Xin and others, the danger is not great. Don't worry, Wenbo! I mean so, the eldest son of the emperor insisted, this time it should also be the eldest son of the emperor, let him be ordered in danger, carry out the festival, patrol the hunt on behalf of the sky, and visit Jianghuai. ”

“……”

However, after Zhao Kuangyin said something, Wang Pu closed his mouth, or not, it was a good thing to let his apprentice go through the training.

After breakfast, at the alternation of [Mao Time] and [Chen Time], Zhao Dezhao ordered the big ship to be started in order to reach Sizhou City as soon as possible. At the same time, 600 miles of expedited horses flew from Kaifeng to various provinces in Jianghuai to convey to the prefectures, prefectures, provinces, and counties that the Qincha had gone down to the south of the Yangtze River.
