Zhao Gu didn't know that once he entered the officialdom, it was as deep as the sea, but people living in this world inevitably had a lot of concerns, whether it was relatives or lovers, they had to do something for them!

Although he is lazy by nature, he will not escape what he should face, and he will not shirk what he should bear. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Now that Zhao Gu has been made a marquis, he is worthy of Su Xiaocheng, but that plan has not yet been implemented, and Zhao Pu, the promoter behind all this, has not taken any action, can he still leave here?

And his father, whom he has not yet met, now he doesn't know where he is, if Zhao Gu can't be in a high position and increase his influence, where should he go to find him?

Su Xiaocheng naturally knew his suffering, and after finishing speaking, he quietly leaned on his arms, and didn't say anything more, everything was silent.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Liu Qiaoqiao on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and snorted heavily, pulling Zhao Gu's thoughts back.

Zhao Gu smiled and beckoned to her, she looked reluctant, and also sat on Zhao Gu's lap, snuggling her head in his arms.

"Official, I'll help you." I don't know how long it took, Liu Qiaoqiao said suddenly.

Zhao Gu was stunned for a moment, and then he was inexplicably moved, although Liu Qiaoqiao's temper was a little worse, but her thoughts about him were no worse than Su Xiaocheng.

"Thank you." Zhao Gu said.

――――――――――

On the twentieth day of the lunar month, the people of the Great Song Dynasty have begun to prepare for the New Year, and people have purchased New Year's goods to prepare for the arrival of the New Year.

In the Zichen Hall of the Imperial Palace, the atmosphere was tense, Zhao Guangyi sat on the dragon chair, and the courtiers sitting below were all high-ranking officials wearing purple official uniforms, and even the prime minister Zhao Pu, who had not been to the court for a long time, was among them.

After being silent for a long time, Zhao Guangyi said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, is Zhao Gu's plan feasible?" ”

It was still silent, and for a long time, Lu Mengzheng hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers and others don't want to express their opinions, it's really that Zhuozhou Guhou's plan is too shocking and too hasty, and the ministers think it...... This matter needs to be considered slowly. ”

Li Fu also said at this time: "Your Majesty, what Lord Lu said is indeed reasonable, but it is undeniable that Zhuozhou Valley may be able to do this, and there is not much time left at the moment, and it is necessary to make a decision as soon as possible whether to implement it." ”

"Li Aiqing, do you approve of this plan?" Zhao Guangyi asked.

Li Fu was also unambiguous, and directly admitted: "The weather is extremely cold this year, presumably countless cattle and horses must have frozen to death in the territory of Liao, and the Liao people must have a difficult life. ”

Lu Mengzheng retorted: "It is true that sending troops to the Liao State can severely damage the Liao State, but my Great Song soldiers will definitely suffer heavy losses. ”

"Besides, even if we take back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun this year, the Liao State will definitely have another army next year, and I don't know how many soldiers will die in battle."

After Lu Mengzheng finished speaking, another forty or fifty-year-old high-ranking official said: "Minister Zhang Qixian doesn't dare to agree with Lord Lu's words, how can there be immortals in war?" After the first emperor created the Great Song Dynasty, the southern expedition and the northern war, the dead soldiers do not know how many, if there is no sacrifice for them, how can there be my Great Song Dynasty? Later, His Majesty succeeded to the throne, didn't he also fight several big battles, and then he settled on the Central Plains? ”

"Lord Zhang's words are wrong, this time is different from the past, when Taizu founded the country, the world was not peaceful, so the south and the north war, after the emperor succeeded to the throne, the world is also divided, the Great Song Dynasty wants to be prosperous and stable for a long time, and has to fight with these separatist regimes. But now that the Great Song Dynasty has been established, the people's minds are determined, it is the time of vigorous development, if the sword and soldiers are used in vain, not to mention the people's strength, it is more likely to destroy this rare prosperous era, if the world changes greatly in the future, my Great Song Dynasty is not in danger? "Lu Meng is right.

"Lu Xiang's words can't help but grow the ambition of others, not to mention that the Great Song Dynasty is very likely to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun after sending troops, even if only one or two of them are recovered, these two states can also be used as a buffer land, so that when the Liao State wants to invade my Great Song Dynasty in the future, it will no longer be a horse and a flat river, from a military point of view, even if there are more soldiers sacrificed this time, it is also for long-term considerations, but I don't know that the north of my Great Song Kingdom is under the hooves of the Liao State, and the number of soldiers who die every year to prevent them from attacking is amazing! We only need to make up our minds to fight a big war with the Liao State this time, and we will no longer be bothered by them in the next few years or even more than ten years, which can be described as a one-and-done strategy. An old minister with a gray head also stood up and said.

Lu Mengzheng seemed to be very jealous of this old minister, and clenched his fist at him slightly: "Lu Guogong's words, the old man completely agrees, if the sixteen states of Yanyun are in the hands of my Great Song Dynasty, the northern frontier of the Great Song Dynasty can be regarded as dangerous to defend." But what if it is not recovered after sending troops this time? At that time, our Great Song soldiers were extremely seriously wounded, but they were no longer able to resist the Liao Iron Cavalry for several years or even more than ten years. ”

Lu Guogong snorted coldly: "Is it true that Lu Xiang can't believe me and other ministers?" ”

"No, no, Lu Guogong is serious, the old man is just talking about things, after all, this is not a trivial matter!" Lu Mengzheng explained.

Lu Guogong snorted coldly again, and then stopped talking, his previous remarks, his opinion has been completely given, as for whether to send troops or not to send troops in the end, it is up to Zhao Guangyi to decide.

Zhao Guangyi was also a big head at this time, at the beginning of his accession to the throne, he also had ambitions to sweep through the United States and recover the world, but the two Northern Expeditions were failures, and even when he himself was conscripted, he was almost captured by the Liao State.

In the past few years, he has slowly faded his enthusiasm, and he just wants to live in peace and stability in the Great Song Dynasty, but after Zhao Gu's strategy was proposed, Zhao Guangyi seemed to see the dawn again, and the ambition that had been silent for a long time took root again.

However, this dispatch of troops is not an ordinary military event, but related to the country's capital, Zhao Guangyi has the heart to fight, but he does not dare to fight, so his heart is very entangled.

As entangled as him, there are also ministers in the palace, except for a few people such as Lu Mengzheng, Li Fu, Zhang Qixian, Lu Guogong and other people who directly made their attitudes clear, everyone else couldn't pay attention to it, and felt that this was reasonable for a while, and then felt that what was said was also right.

His gaze swept over the ministers of the palace, and Zhao Guangyi finally looked at the sleepy Zhao Pu: "Imperial brother, this court meeting was initiated at your request, I don't know if the imperial brother can make a decision in his heart?" ”

Hearing the word Zhao Pu, all the ministers couldn't help but look at him, even Lu Mengzheng was no exception.

Everyone knows that in the Taizu Dynasty, Prime Minister Zhao Pu could be the lord of half of the world, but in the Taizong Dynasty, his power only rose but did not fall.
