On the tenth day of the first month of March, early in the morning, Fang Zhongyong rushed to the New Song Gate, and waited for the exciting, touching, warm, and so on moving scenes of reuniting with his sweetheart. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Although he traveled back to this Great Song Dynasty, Fang Zhongyong still showed the same as when he was in college in his previous life, feeling that chasing girls must be a link, holding hands, kissing, eating, shopping, watching plays, and playing treasures, without going through a hard chase and unenjoyable rush.

Men are hunters by nature, and it is their nature to chase prey.

The return team was very punctual, and without waiting for the three poles of the sun, they slowly came from a distance, raising the horse's hooves and the hustle and bustle.

The face of the human face is still like jade, and in the hustle and bustle of the horse's hooves, it is extraordinarily joyful and extraordinarily outstanding.

It seems that in the haze of the winter of the imperial capital of the previous generation, the fairy who came to the fairy. Haze Fairy, okay, this title is not very beautiful, Fang Zhongyong pulled back his thoughts, and greeted him in the direction of Zhe Yi.

Zhe still saw Fang Zhongyong, and her face also showed a happy look, she flew down from the horse's back lightly, and kicked a pile of papers in the saddle bag to the ground without paying attention.

Fang Zhongyong saw that Zhe still stumbled and kicked away the briefcase, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhe still clean up the official documents scattered all over the place, because it was not a top-secret document, so many official documents were scattered.

Fang Zhongyong picked it up, saw some words on the official document, and looked at the number of people who were returning behind him in confusion, and he didn't feel a little sighing.

When the sparse team of fifty or sixty people came back, the official document properly stated that there were seven hundred people, and the number of people sent was even more bizarre, and the document with the official seal was printed on it, and it was written that the number of soldiers he saw when Fang Zhongyong came to see him off was ten times more than the number of soldiers he saw when Fang Zhongyong came to see him off.

Well, although Comrade Fang Zhongyong knew the history of the Great Song Dynasty and knew the extent to which the Song Dynasty's army was paid, it can be called rare in ancient times -- of course, because the Song Dynasty was relatively economically developed, it could still afford to eat.

However, seeing those exaggerated figures in person today, Fang Zhongyong couldn't help but feel depressed in his heart.

Now that I am immersed in the scene, I find that more often, the Great Song Dynasty itself has never regarded the annual coins given to the Liao State and the Western Xia as a kind of humiliation, but as a kind of diplomacy, to a greater extent, because compared with the redundant soldiers raised every year, the annual coins given to the Liao and Western Xia are not even one percent of the wasted military spending.

This is not exactly the same as the Qing Dynasty's stupid policy of "gathering China's material resources and forming friends and countries" to humiliate the country with a large amount of excess, but it belongs to the appeasement policy of "pulling out a dime of China and causing too many wars in the provincial border areas."

Of course, these two are not glorious policies, and they are also the policies of Fang Zhongyong's ancestors who greeted the rulers in his heart, and the significance of such a comparison can only be said that in the Great Song Dynasty, compared with the scourge of the year's coins, the scourge of redundant soldiers and redundant officials is more distinct and prominent.

For example, in front of you......

Seeing that Fang Zhongyong was in a daze, he slightly understood what he was, so he stepped forward and took the official document in his hand, sighed with a hint of apology, and said softly: "It's all like this, get used to it." Alright, let's go back. ”

The sentence "we" immediately brought Fang Zhongyong back to the sweetness of welcoming his lover, and he still said to him, you wait a minute, I still have a gift for you.

Saying that, Fang Zhongyong solemnly untied it from the horse, and the glass head jewelry that was set in the box and made by Fang Zhongyong himself handed it to the fold with a happy face.

And the "gift" huh? Zhe still happily took the "thank you", and then simply decided not to open it in front of everyone for the time being.

Thinking about the pile of "Victoria's Secret Angel" underwear last time, the folded cheeks were still slightly covered with a layer of glow, and the other party Zhongyong smiled softly in a half-coquettish and half-serious tone:

"I went to the military headquarters first to pay the paperwork, so that I could liberate this group of brothers, and then we will meet alone, and when we have dinner, you will come to the mansion to pick me up, how about it?"

Fang Zhongyong thought about it, "The willow tops on the moon, people are about after dusk", romantic, okay. So he nodded, led the horse, and walked side by side with Zhe into the city.

……

Fold still went to the business trip, and then went back to the house to bathe and change clothes, Fang Zhongyong was bored, passed by Kaifeng Mansion, and went to find Lao Bao to talk about serious things.

Today, Kaifeng Mansion looked at the order, there was no big case on trial, and the officials were busy with their own affairs, Fang Zhongyong saw the master Gongsun, first reported to his home, and then waited for Lao Bao to call him in.

When I entered Lao Bao's room, I found that Lao Bao was not good-looking, leaning on the bed, covered with a brocade quilt, as if he was sick.

Fang Zhongyong was a little strange, turned to Gongsun Ce with a sideways face and asked, Gongsun Ce was also very generous to Lao Bao and Fang Zhongyong each bowed, and then replied to Fang Zhongyong softly:

"Because of Zhang Yaozuo's exceptional promotion to the third envoy, my lord has a dispute with the official family and is on a hunger strike......"

Fang Zhongyong sat at the head of Lao Bao's bed and thought about history, hey, these Great Song Chunchen went on hunger strikes and protested at every turn, and Bao Zheng was not the only one who did it.

For example, when Zhao Zhen and the queen divorced, Fan Zhongyan also took the lead in a hunger strike and set off a hunger strike.

"Lord Bao is loyal, but why really go on a hunger strike? Wouldn't it be nice to make an example for the officials? Fang Zhongyong was very understanding and said to Bao Zheng.

As he spoke, he took out two hangs of money from his sleeve, handed them to Gongsun Ce, and said softly: "This official and Lord Bao haven't seen each other for a long time, so I bother Mr. Gongsun to buy some wine and food for us in a low-key manner, and secretly send it in from the side door, don't smell too much." ”

Bao Zheng glared at Fang Zhongyong and stopped: "If you can fool the past, who else is really on a hunger strike?" How many pairs of eyes are staring here, two hangs of money for a meal, do you want to let the old man steal big fish, meat, wine and food in Kaifeng Mansion? ”

Fang Zhongyong listened to Bao Zheng's voice, but he was still full of energy, thinking that he was not serious and didn't eat anything. So he sat on the edge of the bed and said to Bao Zheng: "The Lord Zhang that the adults are protesting against, but Zhang Guifei's uncle Zhang Yaozuo?" ”

Without waiting for Bao Zheng to answer, Gongsun Ce behind him had already stuffed the two pieces of money back into Fang Zhongyong's hand, and replied: "Isn't it?" This exceptional promotion of Zhang Yaozuo doesn't disrupt the rule of officials?

That Zhang Yaozuo is just a small official in Shuzhong, because Zhang Guifei is favored, he was promoted to two levels, he does not go out of Shu, and he does not hold real power, that is, he is promoted to the position of the third secretary in charge of the world's money and grain, and he is in a harmonious system? ”

Fang Zhongyong thought about a series of things related to Zhang Yaozuo, nodded slightly, turned to Gongsun Ce, and sighed:

"What Mr. Gongsun said is good, but the three envoys in the past were not capable ministers, they were all mediocre ministers, if this Zhang Yaozuo is in his own business, there is nothing wrong with giving people a handle, but there is no need to rush to be stubborn with the official family for this person. It's better to wait for him to make a mistake, and then it's not too late. ”

Gongsun Ce heard Fang Zhongyong say this kind of thing, and he was already unhappy in his heart, but because Bao Zheng and Fang Zhongyong counted the few friends who could talk, it was not easy to make a mistake, so he just used a disdainful look and a snort in his nose to express the dissatisfaction of the other party Zhongyong's words.

Bao Zheng raised his head and looked at Fang Zhongyong with a strange look: "I, the scholars, do we still have to choose the standard of behavior for the happiness of the official family?" It's not that the old man said you, Lord Fang, your idea is very dangerous, only traitors and courtiers will act according to the likes and dislikes of the official family. ”

"What Lord Bao said is extremely true, but if there are more important things now that need to be handled by adults, if this matter is not easy to deal with, its impact and harm may be far greater than that of a relative Zhang Yaozuo?" (To be continued.) )
