Chapter 301 Qin Feng Road [II]

In fact, when Zhao Yu said this, he didn't have much expectation in his heart. It's just in order to follow the rules of officialdom and inform Xia Zhu, even if Xia Zhu doesn't agree, it doesn't matter, Zhao Yu can find Song Renzong again. Otherwise, Zhao Yu spared Xia Zhu silently and found Song Renzong, which would be a bit of a bad rule.

It's not a big deal, so this bypasses the boss, so why set up a boss?

That's why Zhao Yu had this frank inquiry.

To Zhao Yu's surprise, Xia Zhu did not refuse, but only hesitated slightly, then bowed his head slightly: "This son is a good general, and he is not condescending by the side of the prince." I don't know if the prince is going to arrange for him to be an official there? ”

"You...... What did you say? Zhao Yu was stunned and asked in surprise.

However, Zhao Yu immediately reacted, and the question he had just now was very idiotic, and immediately explained in disguise: "What this king means is that Xia Xianggong doesn't know what to propose about this?" ”

Xia Zhu also knew that Zhao Yu's words were completely sophistry, but he didn't have much anger, but had a kind of pleasure after teasing others. Looking at Zhao Yu with a smile, Xia Zhu said: "It seems that the old man is really old, and his speech has become vague." ”

Faced with Xia Zhu's words that meant him, Zhao Yu couldn't help but blush, damn it, he calculated for this old fox! "Ahem, what this king means is to let Shi Ji serve as a pacifying envoy by the king's side first, and then send it after a while."

Marching Sima may have been important in other dynasties, but by the Song dynasty it had almost become the surname of Jilu officials. However, there is still some power in Yuanbian Zhoulu, which is equivalent to a senior staff officer, but the actual power depends largely on the trust of the superior in you. If I don't trust you, even if you have Zhuge Liang's intelligence, you are still a kite made of iron - why is it all in vain!

Xia Zhu bowed slightly, this Wei Wang didn't seem to be stunned, he had some skills. Arranging Shi Ji in the position of marching Sima was obviously well thought out.

Is Qin Fenglu not lacking now? Yes, absolutely! After all, after the Great Purge and the Western Xia Army, there were not a few generals and officials who died in battle and were dismissed. However, most of the positions vacated by the death and recall have already been determined, and even if they are not confirmed, they have reached a white-hot stage.

Zhao Yu rashly intervened when he first arrived, and it didn't matter in the past, but now the imperial court intends to launch a war against Western Xia within the year, which is not good. There is a gap between you and your subordinates, what do you want to do? If you are not defeated by your subordinates, you are already a good character!

"Well, there is nothing wrong with the prince's arrangement, you follow the procedure for this matter, the last document, and the old man will issue it!" Xia Zhu said, buried his head behind the bookcase, and the meaning of chasing customers was unobstructed.

Zhao Yu is not afraid that Xia Zhu will do another set of things on his lips, not that he will not play tricks at Xia Zhu's level. It depends on the object and the situation, for such a small point as Shi Ji, Xia Zhu will not lose his credibility because of him.

Zhao Yu Shi Ran stood up, hugged his fists and retreated: "This king will not disturb Xia Xianggong's office, retire!" ”

"If you are busy with official business, you won't send each other off, and King Wei will go slowly!" Xia Zhu replied without raising his head.

Zhao Yu didn't care about Xia Zhu's rudeness, and went out. returned to Jingyuan Building, and Zhao Yu asked Du Xiansheng to check out.

When Zhao Xun got the news, he hurriedly came and asked a little worriedly: "Lord Wang, but you don't greet you well?" Why leave in such a hurry? ”

Zhao Yu glanced at the northwest and said, "The wolf smoke is endless, where does this king have time to stay in Jingzhao Mansion?" But Da Lang, where do you live now, do you have the idea to come to this king's side? ”

This is the first time Zhao Yu has extended an olive branch to Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun replied with a faint smile: "Actually, when my father left, he already had this order to Zaixia, so he had already applied for an appointment. If there are no accidents, he will be transferred to the Qinfeng Road Pacification Division as the chief secretary next month. ”

Zhao Yu was overjoyed and said, "So good! In this case, this king can go to Qinfeng Road with confidence! Let's meet again when we get to Qinfeng Road. ”

Zhao Xun said with regret: "It's a pity that there is wolf smoke in Shaanxi now, otherwise why would the great rivers and mountains be like this?" ”

Zhao Yu couldn't help but sigh and muttered: "Xing, the people are suffering, and the people are suffering!" ”

When Zhao Xun heard this, a look of shock flashed in his eyes, and after careful consideration, he couldn't help but applaud. "The prince's move is really three points! I only hope that I can pacify the Western Xia thieves as soon as possible! ”

Zhao Yu smiled bitterly when he heard this, calm? This matter may only be a matter of time in the eyes of everyone in the Great Song Dynasty. But Zhao Yu, a person who crossed over, knew that the Northern Song Dynasty had perished, and the Western Xia had not yet perished. By the time of Mongolia, even Genghis Khan was not able to destroy Western Xia, but died on the way to conquer Western Xia.

Speaking of which, Zhao Yu was also a little depressed. Without much conversation, he set off first with the road strips, customs guards, and big seals. And Hua Xiangrong and other family members, civil officials, scribes, etc., took a carriage, followed slowly, and it was probably half a day later for Zhao Yu to arrive at Qinfeng Road.

Out of Jingzhao Mansion, Zhao Yu looked back at the tall and magnificent city wall not far away, and felt that it seemed to be a huge wall between worlds. In Jingzhao Mansion, although Zhao Yu felt the atmosphere of war, it was not strong. Although there are refugees and beggars, the number is not large. It's just that after leaving the city, what Zhao Yu saw on the bank of the Wei River was an endless refugee camp.

Refugees who had lost everything in the war dug a pit with branches and hands, laid hay on top of it, and built a roof out of the pit with branches. When you dig into the pit, it's a house.

At the city gates, countless boys and girls knelt in rows and rows, with a long stick of hay stuck in their heads. This is the meaning of selling oneself, and the housekeepers of some large families pinched their noses and stepped forward to choose with a look of disgust. That indifferent look seems to be picking a commodity, not looking at people.

However, after going farther, Zhao Yu still saw some warm things, and set up grass sheds scattered outside the city. A big iron pot was set up under the grass shed to cook porridge, Zhao Yu deliberately rode his horse over to take a look, and found that although this porridge was not thick, it was definitely not the kind that was clear and the number of particles could be seen, which was enough for these refugees to hang themselves.

Not far away, you can see a big banner with two big words written on it - conscription!

When the horse approached, Zhao Yu found that there were not many people who went to recruit soldiers. There were about 10,000 refugees in Zhao Yu's sight, but here in the conscription office, there were only more than 30 people in line. It took a long time for one more refugee to be added to the back row. And this number is completely unable to keep up with the speed of recruitment in front.
