Wei Guogong, the right prime minister, and the privy envoy Jia Rudao have received the report of Wu Shaogang, the deputy envoy of the Sichuan system, the defense envoy of the Tongchuan Fu Road, and the prefect of Luzhou, and Liu Yuanzhen, the military envoy of the Mongolian Chengdu Fu Road, is ready to launch an attack on the Tongchuan Fu Road.

Since gaining the emperor's trust and grasping power, Jia Rudao's life is not so comfortable, the biggest problem is the lack of money in the court, it is difficult to support, he, the prime minister, can ignore other things, but the officials' salaries, as well as the expenses needed by the army, still have to worry about, otherwise the court and the local government will not be able to stabilize, and the consequences will be unbearable.

Under his strong promotion and the direct support of the emperor, the public land law implemented in the capital and Lianghuai seems to have a good effect, and the imperial court has obtained a lot of money and grain, which can temporarily maintain the expenses of the capital and the locality.

For Wu Shaogang, Jia Nidao is not too impressed, but Wu Shaogang is Li Tingzhi's son-in-law, from this level, Jia Nidao also has to give some care, but this time Wu Shaogang's twists and turns made Jia Nidao quite annoyed, and he was still immersed in the joy of the actual results of the Gongtian Law, and he didn't want to be disturbed by other things at all.

The implementation of the Gongtian Law is full of difficulties, if it were not for Jia Rudao relying on the absolute trust of the emperor, he would have failed long ago, and he himself would have left in disgrace, and even could not save his life, although it is said that after nearly two years, the Gongtian Law has achieved certain results, but there are many problems inside, after all, it touches the interests of the powerful people in the DPRK and China, and there are many troubles and problems that need to be solved.

Starting a war means a large consumption of money, and the imperial court is unable to come up with a large amount of money at present.

At the same time, the start of war means that the situation is unstable, which will affect the continuation of the public land law to the greatest extent.

It's just that this time it was the initiative of the Mongolian Tartars to attack, and although Jia Rudao was angry in his heart, he had no place to vent.

The battle of Ezhou that year, Jia Rudao still remembers vividly, that battle was so critical to the survival of the Great Song Dynasty, if it were not for the accidental death of the Mongol Khan Meng Ge, if it were not for Abuligo trying to fight for the throne of the Mongol Khan and forcing Kublai Khan to return to the steppe, I am afraid that the worst outcome would have appeared.

The battle of Ezhou was also Jia Yidao's greatest benefit and completely consolidated his own power.

The Mongol envoy Hao Jing was detained, and it has always been a piece of Jia Nidao's heart, the battle of Ezhou was not a complete victory of the imperial army, nor was it the voluntary evacuation after the defeat of Kublai Khan, but Jia Rudao was in front of the emperor, he was a big advocacy, saying that the imperial army had achieved a major victory and completely defeated the Mongolian Tartars.

It is precisely for this reason that Jia Rudao was named the Duke of Weiguo and the Young Master by the emperor.

At that time, Jia Rudao once sent a secret envoy to sue for peace with Kublai Khan, expressing his willingness to sue for peace and become a minister, with an annual tribute of 200,000 taels of silver and 200,000 horses, and the Mongolian mission led by Hao Jing was actually to implement the peace agreement.

All of this is strictly confidential, and there are very few people who know about it, and they are all absolute henchmen of Jia Nidao.

Later, Li Pu of Shandong rebelled, and the imperial court sent a large army into Huaibei, which made Jia Rudao see hope, perhaps Mongolia had become weak because of the internal rebellion, so he strongly supported the dispatch of troops to attack and test the strength of the Mongolian Tatars, and he did not expect tens of thousands of troops to enter Huaibei, and he was completely defeated and retreated after a long time, and all places in Huaibei were still occupied by the Mongolian Tatars.

This battle made Jia Rudao sober, and he made it clear that he did not take the initiative to provoke the Mongolian court.

Sichuan is an important strategic base of the imperial court, every invasion of the Mongol Tartars, is from Sichuan, when the Mongolian Khan Meng Ge personally led the army to attack Sichuan, and the battle of Ezhou is just Kublai Khan in accordance with the deployment of Mongolia, opened up another battlefield, Liu Quan's rebellion, once the emperor and the entire court panicked, once lost the Tongchuan Road, the entire Sichuan will face the danger of falling, fortunately, the army led by Lu Wende, completely quelled Liu Quan's rebellion, recovered the entire Tongchuan Road.

That battle made Jia Yidao have a deeper impression of Wu Shaogang.

After Wu Shaogang served as the defense envoy of Tongchuan Fulu, there was less news about Tongchuanfu Road, and after a period of time, the imperial court no longer needed to worry about the safety of the border pass.

In Jia Rudao's view, Tongchuanfu Road should be completely stabilized and does not need special attention.

Hou Yuan, Jia Rudao Mansion.

It faces the Ouchi Imperial Palace across the lake, and every morning in the morning, Jia Rudao can directly reach the Imperial Palace by big boat.

There are groups of concubines in the mansion, there are countless strange flowers and plants, pavilions and pavilions are wrong, and its luxury and luxury are no less than that of the Ouchi Palace.

Such a mansion was also given to Jia Nidao by the emperor.

Looking at the entire Great Song Dynasty, the one who can get such a gift is Jia Yidao.

At the entrance of the mansion, an eight-lift sedan chair stopped.

Lu Wende, the secretary of the ministry, got down from the sedan chair.

After receiving the notice of the right prime minister Jia Nidao, Lu Wende hurried all the way and hurriedly came to Jiafu.

The housekeeper was already waiting at the door, and after seeing Lu Wende, he just clasped his fists and saluted, and asked Lord Lu to follow him in.

Lu Wende had a smile on his face, and he didn't care at all, maybe he had been to Jia Yidao's mansion too many times, and he had seen too much, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with the housekeeper's move.

As a secretary of the second grade, Lu Wende's identity is also unusual, and he is also respected by many people in the court, but in front of the housekeeper of Jiafu, he has to smile and have a flattering taste, which shows the authority of Jia Rudao.

In fact, the housekeeper's attitude towards Lu Wende is quite good, many officials from the DPRK and China came to visit Jia Nidao in the mansion, and the housekeeper would not come forward at all, and it was difficult for these officials who came to visit Jia Nidao.

Passing through a long path and past several pavilions, the butler stopped in front of a house.

Lu Wende also stopped, he knew that this was Jia Yidao's reception room.

The butler walked straight into the reception room, and quickly came out and invited Lu Wende in.

"Lu Shangshu, I want to know the situation of Wu Shaogang, the deputy envoy of Sichuan, the defense envoy of Tongchuan Fulu, and the prefect of Luzhou."

Jia Rudao didn't have any greetings, and he got straight to the point.

Lu Wende was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face, he had heard rumors about Jia Nidao, if he didn't get Jia Nidao's trust, he would be very polite to you, but if he got Jia Nidao's trust, it would be very casual to get along.

Jia Rudao did not have the slightest politeness to him Lu Wende, and asked about the relevant situation when they met, which shows that he Lu Wende has gradually become an official trusted by Jia Rudao.

Of course, there is still a certain distance if you want to become Jia Nidao's confidant, and when Jia Nidao and his henchmen discuss their affairs, they are all carried out in the study, not in the reception room.

"Jia Youxiang, Xia Guan and Wu Shaogang have a lot of contacts, in the first year of Tianqing, Wu Shaogang was just a guard of the You Yi Army belonging to the Ezhou Imperial Army, because of the courage of the battle, was promoted to the You Yi Army General, and later the lower official led the army to conquer Huangzhou, Wu Shaogang made meritorious service again, entered the Ezhou Imperial Front Army and became a general."

"Lu Shangshu, in this way, this Wu Shaogang is indeed brave in battle."

"What Jia Youxiang said is that Wu Shaogang fought well, and he won many victories, and it was precisely because of his courage in battle that he was repeatedly promoted, and later...

Lu Wende suddenly remembered something, looked at Jia Yidao, and did not continue.

"Lu Shangshu, what do you mean is that Wu Shaogang became Li Tingzhi's son-in-law and was quickly promoted, there is nothing taboo about this, the Manchu Dynasty knows about it, but I heard the commander of Sima Du in front of the palace also said that Wu Shaogang does have good ability, and in the urging army under the front division of the palace, the training of sergeants has been implemented, so that the combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly enhanced."

"This, Jia Youxiang, the lower officials are not very clear."

"The battle to exterminate Liu Quan's rebellion was directly commanded by you, speaking of combat bravery, you are second to none in the court, if there is no command from you, I think Liu Quan's rebellion will not be quelled so quickly, it is Wu Shaogang who fights with you, I think in the battle, Wu Shaogang also showed his ability."

Sweat drops had already appeared on Lu Wende's forehead, and he didn't know what Jia Yidao meant, whether he wanted to promote or attach importance to Wu Shaogang, or whether he had a bad opinion of Wu Shaogang.

"Jia Youxiang, the lower officials still feel that Wu Shaogang is too young, but at the age of the weak crown, he has become a feudal official in the court, which is quite inappropriate, if Wu Shaogang can suffer more tempering, he will definitely become a pillar of the court one day."

Jia Rudao looked at Lu Wende, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Lu Shangshu, the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the Kaoquan officials, this is your responsibility, I don't want to say more, Liu Yuanzhen, the military envoy of the Mongolian Chengdu Mansion Road, is preparing to attack the Tongchuan Mansion Road, Wu Shaogang wrote a twist, what do you think of this matter."

Lu Wende didn't speak immediately, lowered his head and pondered for a while.

When he looked up again, Lu Wende's face had become calm.

"Jia Youxiang, the original Chengdu Fulu Army and Horse Jing slightly caused Liu Heima to die, the time is not very long, Liu Yuanzhen has been in office for the same time is not very long, and it is also necessary to stabilize all parts of Chengdu Fulu, at this time, it is not the best choice, according to the opinion of the lower officials, this move is just Liu Yuanzhen's tentative behavior, there is no big deal, you must know that the Mongolian Khan Meng Ge led the army to conquer Tongchuan Fulu, and also suffered a fiasco, not to mention Liu Yuanzhen.

When Lu Wende was still telling his understanding, Jia Rudao nodded frequently.

"Lu Shangshu, what you said is right, I see it the same way, Liu Yuanzhen doesn't have the courage to attack on a large scale, and the Mongolian Tatars won't attack Tongchuan Mansion Road with all their might, so let Wu Shaogang deal with it on his own." (To be continued.) )
