Chapter 536: The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss (6)
After Li Gangwu finished bowing to thanks, Cai Jingcai got up slowly, saluted Zhao Ji and said: "Li Longtu Town Hebei, the sage uses people, Hebei affairs, when worry-free, it's just that Xifu Bingheng the whole country, the privy envoy is already empty, after Li Longtu goes out, it is even more empty, when the arrangement is made early, so that the situation in the court is not chaotic, and all parties are in harmony." ”
Liang Shicheng immediately cheered up, Cai Jing this time in the discussion of the Shence Army and the Jinyang Army going out, surprisingly cooperated, personnel arrangements, all said that there was no objection, he was responsible for the financial plan, because it was really impossible to get the money, but not intentionally to cause any trouble, Cai Jing is so honest, but it makes people feel uneasy, everyone has to deal with Yang Ling, once Yang Ling falls, it is not very difficult to implicate Cai Jing who is trying to protect Yang Ling, with Cai Jing's old treacherous slippery, how can you not see this?
He just didn't give birth to anything to obstruct him, but now it seems that he is staring at the position of Xifu, and he wants to hold the East and West Erfu in his palm at this time, he must put forward the character in his pocket, but he can't let this old fox succeed.
Looking around, in the Yanfu Palace, Gao Yi is Cai Jing's person, Bai Shizhong is famous for his promises, no one can be offended, this time in the name of participating in the governor's affairs, in addition to the praise, the others do not say a word at all, Li Gang has been approved to go out, what to say will not be muddy at this time, at this moment, only he is shirtless.
When Liang Shicheng was about to speak, he saw Zhao Ji smile and speak: "Cai Laoqing's family is worried about state affairs, and they are loyal and diligent...... However, now the four rivers and the sea are clear, there is no military matter, the western army returns to the town, after the two armies are transferred to each other, there is nothing important for a while, the forbidden army must be reorganized, and those who bear this heavy responsibility, in addition to the three ya, is the most important thing in the cardinal, and those who can do anything can do it unless they have the ability and talent to be lacking...... Cai Laoqing's family is also right, the cardinal government naturally cannot be left without people for a long time, and I will make a decision as soon as possible, so let's do it first. ”
Zhao Ji blocked Cai Jing back, Liang Shicheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, stared at Cai Jing tightly, and saw what else he would say, this possibility was expected by Liang Shicheng and the old party Qingliu lineage, for no other reason, Zhao Ji needed money too much, and the forbidden army must also be reorganized.
Now it seems that it has become a foregone conclusion, everything today is expected, it is extremely smooth, even Cai Jingjing did not give birth to anything, but I don't know how, Liang Shicheng always felt a sense of unwarranted weakness, this training of the forbidden army's financial affairs, everyone knows that it is a trap, why is Yang Ling so unhesitating to jump down? Is he really that stupid, or does he have ulterior motives?
In an instant, Liang Shicheng has gathered his mind, the Great Song Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, this redundant army has a lot of great wisdom, and the famous ministers with great ability have never been able to touch the slightest, and Yang Ling is not a god, how can he have the ability to return to the sky? Everyone just sat quietly and waited, even if Yang Ling didn't make any trouble, everyone would give him trouble, just on this top, and once and for all, this person who couldn't look at the eye would be completely trampled under his feet.
Sure enough, as Liang Shicheng expected, the country's financial plan was the matter of the three envoys, and Gao Dai heard the sound and immediately got up, and bowed down to confess the crime: "The minister has a negative effect, and his sin is also deep, and the minister asks himself to avoid the position and go out, and asks the saint to choose a capable minister, fill the position of the minister, and share the worries for the saint." ”
Zhao Ji let out a long sigh, let Gao Qing get up, and said with a rare heavy expression: "How can you blame Gao Qing for this?" Gao Qing has done his best to solve problems for me, in fact, in the past few years, things have been repeated, there is no time to break off, Jiangnan is a wealth of land, the rebellion of Fangla, now Jiangnan is still alive, the Liao State is declining, the Northern Expedition to Pingyan, this is also the wish of the founding ancestors, although it is being done, but a war down, the soldiers are in trouble, the roads in Hebei are broken, the income has dropped sharply, and the expenses are more than one day, how can there be no embarrassment? ”
"If you are in a difficult situation, you have to deal with it...... In this Northern Expedition, I and the ministers have seen that now the forbidden army is stationed in Dumen, and it is really unbearable to use the selection of 20,000 elites to accompany the Northern Expedition, but without a battle, without a single arrow, in Hejian Mansion asked the Liao soldiers to enter Xiongzhou, and their own country was defeated, this is still the selected elite, what about the others that have not been selected? Do you still expect them to serve me? The country has raised it for more than 100 years, but it is so useless, not to mention that the forbidden army stationed in Dumen is claimed to be more than 600,000, the real number, is there half? This half, has it been reorganized? Can you go into battle? The country has a lot of wealth to throw in this useless place, how can it be obtained in the long run? This ban on military affairs is a must-have. ”
Everyone present got up together and agreed, but they all had their own thoughts in their hearts, this redundant and redundant matter of the forbidden army has been shouted for more than 100 years, no matter which dynasty it has changed, it has to be taken out and said a few times, and it must be said that it must be rectified, reduced a little, and immediately increased more, no one can take care of it, everyone sees this drawback, but no one can't, and if possible, try to go around this matter, and all these years the gate control army has rotted like this, your official responsibility is not shallow, the original Sanya led the army, It's good to use the veteran generals who have been in the army for a long time, no matter how bad the gate ban army is, it is good to be able to make up tens of thousands of soldiers and soldiers, since the official appointment has neither the ability nor the experience, and only knows the high level of the official family, the gate ban army has degenerated completely out of control.
The official family is now poor and crazy, and for the big profits brought by Yang, is ready to make up his mind to touch this cancer, your official family is easy, Yang is used to not playing cards according to the card, you have to do this, although to do, my generation agrees, cold bystanders are to say, I can't take the opportunity to start, to get greater benefits.
The ministers knew Zhao Ji's intentions, but they didn't declare it, and after praising the saints, they waited for Zhao Ji to say it himself, so far Zhao Ji was thinking that he wanted to make great use of Yang Ling, and first said all the thoughts of the forbidden army's financial affairs, and he was still quite worried in his heart, for fear that the ministers would oppose it, saying that Yang Ling's prestige was not enough, because of luck, and he could not do this important military affairs, so that Zhao Ji did not expect that these rulers of the Great Song Dynasty in the Yanfu Palace, together with a hidden minister, were silent, and after reviewing each other, they all saluted.
Cai Jing was the leader of the speech: "A Pingyan war does show that the Dumen Forbidden Army is by no means enough to use the meaning of the sage, and it is the right time to start by the financial plan, and it is just like its part, it can be said that the saint is also ...... Yang Ling, although he is worried about lack of qualifications, but he can still have the courage to do things, and he seems to be good at financial affairs, let him try it first, it's nothing, if there is any accident, the saint will make up for it at any time...... The old minister had no objection to this matter. ”
Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jing, then turned his head to look at Liang Shicheng, and sent Yang Ling respectfully, it was enough to get down to Liang Shicheng, Zhao Ji didn't want to be too much for a while, but he wanted to see that Liang Shicheng had such a lot of power over Yang Ling, and he didn't have any resentment, but he didn't expect Liang Shicheng to be not a little dissatisfied, and saluted beside him: "The saint has taken measures, he must be extremely proficient, my generation only hates Kuang Shi for being powerless, and he is afraid, what other opinions can he have?" Just to be able to be next to the saint, pick up the missing and make up for the shortcomings, there is little benefit, it is the usefulness of our generation, the saint wants Yang Ling to check the cost of the forbidden army first, and the minister has nothing to say except for full cooperation. ”
Zhao Ji made up his mind, and felt that he usually ruled by the arch, but these ministers were intrigued, and the court situation was corrupted very difficult to clean up, and in the end he had to go out by himself, arrange everything one by one, and the ministers could only obey Shengming, waiting for him to clean up the rivers and mountains, and be the official of the Great Song Dynasty by himself, and his authority was enough, but it was too hard.
At the moment, he smiled very confidently: "Since this is the case, I will invent a decree as soon as possible, let Yang Ling set up a temporary department in the privy mansion, set up subordinate officials, receive seals, and inspect the funds and financial affairs of the forbidden army. ”
Today's major events are discussed here, there is already a saying, with the will to be issued has been roughly remembered, just wait for the time to go to the pen like flying to prepare, Zhao Ji approved the treasure, handed over to the political hall to countersign, it will be a final decision, Zhao Ji is rare and industrious today, this time also dare to be tired, wave his hand to let the ministers retreat and settle, he has to find a quiet place to recuperate, and the heartache of 500,000 yuan must also dissipate to be less distressed.
After Cai Jing and Gao Yi resigned, they withdrew from Yanfu Palace, and the internal envoy led the way, Cai Jing was old and honorable, and he was carried by the shoulder, Gao Jing didn't care about his identity, he followed Cai Jing closely, and asked softly with his face up: "Taishi, let them do it like this, watching Yang jump into this fire pit, his position will inevitably be lost, and he will definitely be implicated in Taishi when the time comes, what should I do then?" ”
Cai Jing's eyes seemed to be closed, and he snorted in a low voice after a while: "Whose fire pit it is, it's still uncertain, it's too early to say this." ”
In a mansion not far from the Jinshui Bridge 1,000 Jinyang military camp, the door of the house is locked at the moment, the house here was originally a tea merchant on Jinghu South Road, after the birth of Bianliang, the family members were taken over, spent a lot of money in Bianliang to settle down, ready to do a long-term residence, as a result of a business to lose the capital, lost all the money, and what is worse is that a lot of capital is borrowed from the Bianliang forces at usury, desperate, the businessman sent his wife away, and hung his neck on the big tree in the courtyard.
A group of broken households to ask for debts when they came to the door at night, when they entered the door, they saw the tea merchant hanging in front of him, and he was so frightened that he fled in all directions, and a broken household was scared of a stroke on the spot, and his face was crooked until now, and it was a coincidence that he came to the door that day, and there was a broken leg and a serious illness, and everyone said that it was the tea merchant who did it.
The house he left behind was sold, since it has become a ghost house, few people are willing to take over, and they have been panicking there, until not long ago, there were people with foreign accents who came to the door and pawned this mansion from the hands of the tooth man, as long as he can get rid of this ghost house, everything is so-so for the tooth man, and all the documents are hasty.
Pawn this house, but a few days, today this one after another, there are a lot of people, the house is seen tightly, from time to time there are mule carts transporting firewood and charcoal to the back door of the house to stop, the people of Bianliang saw this scene, saw those strong men walking around the left side of the mansion, are far away, Bianliang is such a big city, those in the gray area are naturally very developed, these heroes act, the old Bianliang will not cause this trouble, the officials of Kaifeng Mansion, but also came to ask a few words, the leader is good to speak, Stuffed a small silver ingot, saying that he would receive some goods today, and nothing would happen, so he stopped.
When night comes, no one will come close here, even if there is anything in this mansion, it is not possible to penetrate the needle, the water is impenetrable, and all the worries are hidden in the night of Bianliang.
At this time, in a hall in the inner courtyard of the mansion, a few lights reflected in the hall half bright and half dark, in the hall, more than a dozen or twenty Han or sitting or standing, although each person was wearing civilian clothes, but the kind of military general temperament tempered by a hundred battles on the body, but nothing could be covered, this group of Han is the most important generals at all levels in the Jinyang Army, at least the commander of a battalion and the main and deputy generals of the Marquis Yu.
Now everyone is gathered here in civilian clothes, looking at each other, they all feel strange, they are this morning to get the order, with the mule cart transporting firewood and charcoal as a cover, the second concentration here, everyone vaguely knows what is going on, but no one wants to say it first, the Jinyang army was originally since the Shuozhou War, the elite almost half of the dead and wounded, and now it has pulled more than a thousand warriors to Bianliang to rectify the forbidden army, the Jinyang army at the border has not been able to recover for several years, at this time it is necessary to travel long distances to adjust the matter, halfway to the water and soil unsuitable, I don't know how many people have died or injured from illness and disease, and their strength is a little weaker, and when they arrive in Yandi, they are mostly born, and they have to be discounted a little, this matter, for them now, they still feel a little panicked - can this Jinyang Army still be regarded as the army of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, and can you still be regarded as the generals of the Great Song Dynasty?
There are people who arrive early, they have been waiting here for a long time, but there are few colleagues who meet with these **** to answer, I don't know how long I have been waiting, standing and sitting, I feel numb on my body, I heard the sound of footsteps outside, the door of the hall was pushed open, and I saw Niu Gao and Yue Fei also changed into civilian clothes, and there was another person next to Yang Ling, Tang Huai, the leader of the guards, who strode in.
The law in the army is strict, the two generals arrived, all the generals in the hall got up, saluted Niu Gao and Yue Fei, Niu Gao and Yue Fei both looked very strange, all kinds of emotions were entangled, especially Yue Fei, this young man, but in the army is known for his calm and stoic, the look on his face at this time, there is a rare sense of being at a loss for what to do......
