Chapter 91: Mixed Blessings

Gao Huaiyuan paid attention to Li Ruohu's military situation report after he left the customs in Lizhou every day, and when he learned that Li Ruohu was progressing very smoothly, this heart gradually let go, after all, this time he let Li Ruohu lead the army to go out, for Li Ruohu, it was the first time to lead the troops alone, Gao Huaiyuan was still a little worried about Li Ruohu's lack of ability, afraid of something accident.

But judging from the report sent back by the army in the past few days, Li Ruohu did quite well, after leaving the Duolong Bridge, he marched all the way, and beat those who had borrowed the way to the Mongolian army of the Tubo tribes, in less than ten days, they beheaded thousands, which greatly shocked the Tubo tribes, and in the past few days, the envoys of the Tubo tribes have rushed to Lizhou, and they have visited him, and they have shown their tribe's friendship to the Great Song Dynasty, and some tribes have taken out horses and dedicated them to Gao Huaiyuan, hoping to restore the city as soon as possible. So that they could trade with the Southern Song Dynasty.

In this way, Gao Huaiyuan knew that he had put a lot of pressure on the Tubo tribes by doing this this time, and he knew that he couldn't push these Tubo people too hard, otherwise the words would be extremely opposite, and if he forced these guys, it would be self-defeating, but it would not be beautiful.

So he ordered that these Tubo tribes who had expressed their stance and resolutely supported the Great Song Dynasty should be given certain preferential treatment, and allowed them to enter the city and trade with the Southern Song Dynasty, but there was one thing to insist on, that is, these tribes must take out war horses, horns, tendons and other things and import them into the Song realm, otherwise, salt and tea and other things will not be allowed to be exported.

In this way, it opened a channel for the Song army to obtain war horses, although it was far from enough to meet the equipment needs of the Song army, but it finally solved the urgent need, not to mention that Gao Huaiyuan himself secretly bought some tribal pastures in Tubo and raised a large number of good horses, taking this opportunity, he was able to start a large number of imports to the Song Dynasty.

But the good times didn't last long, and soon Gao Huaiyuan received an edict from Zhao Yun sent by the imperial court, and after reading it, Gao Huaiyuan's brows were immediately wrung together.

Monkey business! After listening to the edict and the eunuch finished reading the decree, Gao Huaiyuan rewarded the eunuch with some silver money and asked him to take him down to rest.

Why are the officials so angry? Qiu Tong walked into the room from outside the house with a bowl of fragrant tea, and happened to hear Gao Huaiyuan angry, so he quickly put down the tray and asked Gao Huaiyuan.

We fought to the death here to repel the Mongol army, and instead of praising me this time, the Holy One issued an order to reprimand me for being arbitrary! Don't think about it, the Holy One is instigated by those civil officials who can only eat and not work! That's why I'm so upset! I think about why I work so hard, every day for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, but these Wenchen only know how to drag me back, staring at my shortcomings every day, waiting for me to be impeached at any time!

Mr. Tianji sent a letter the day before yesterday, saying that during this period of time, countless ministers of the government and the opposition have continued to write to impeach me, and even Mr. Ji is powerless to suppress them, and the saint has been dissatisfied with me recently! If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Sichuan for long! But there's still a lot going on here, and if I don't sit here, I'm afraid that this busy time will immediately be replicated!

Do I do things for the Holy One, and the Holy One really can't see that I am dedicated to the country? Gao Huaiyuan has been worrying about this matter for the past few days, and after seeing this holy decree today, he finally couldn't help but burst out, and complained to Qiu Tong angrily, anyway, there is no one else here, but he doesn't hold the words in his heart.

Qiu Tong picked up the holy decree and looked at it, and couldn't help frowning, and immediately muttered: It's too! Wasn't this saint your childhood friend? Doesn't he trust you? Why is the wording so strong, and you are still asked to defend yourself in a book?

After complaining, Gao Huaiyuan's anger also disappeared a little, and after taking a sip of the tea bowl, he sat down and said to Qiu Tong: This truth is very simple, people will change! Although we had a good relationship when we were teenagers, he is now the king of a country! And I was born as a military general, and with such a high position in today's sainthood, for those scholars and scholars who only know how to read every day, they simply look down on my background, thinking that a martial artist like me does not know how to govern the country at all!

Therefore, many civil officials in the government and the opposition have long been dissatisfied with me, and in the past two years, I have knocked down many civil officials one after another, and I have stepped on the heads of many civil servants, so they will naturally not stop with me!

The last time I led the troops to pacify Jingdong, Zheng Qingzhi launched a group of civil servants to attack me! And this time, after I entered Sichuan, I offended the civil officials in the Lizhou area again, especially that Zheng Zheng, who was set up by me and humiliated by me, so naturally he will not give up with me!

It seems that the Holy One, at the instigation of these people during this time, has indeed begun to feel at ease with me! Because my rights are indeed too great! The saint is worried that I will become another Han Yanxuan and another Shi Miyuan!

How could he think that? Officials are thinking about the country everywhere, how can they be compared with those two traitorous ministers? It's too unfair to the officials! Now that the Holy One is rebuking you so harshly, what are you going to do? If it doesn't work, let's just go home, whoever cares about this mess will take care of it! See who can do it better than you! When the Tartars are killed under the nose of the official family, see if the official family can afford your benefits! Hum! Qiu Tong was not a woman born in the Southern Song Dynasty, so she didn't have much respect for the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, and she didn't show mercy at all.

When Gao Huaiyuan heard Qiu Tong's complaints, he laughed: You are still a little childish! Do you think that I have done so many things over the years just for the sake of one person today? Nowadays, the Mongolian Tartars are getting stronger and stronger, and the Western Xia has been destroyed by the Mongolian Tartars, and then there is the Jin State, the Jin State is now corrupted, and the destruction is just a matter of imminence, once the Jin State is destroyed again, the butcher's knife of the Mongolian Tartars will fall on the heads of our Han people!

You have also seen what a ferocious beast the Mongolian Tartars are, once we don't know how to improve ourselves now, then I don't know how many innocent people will become the souls of their butchers, I do so many things, not just to get promoted and get rich! If it was just for me to be promoted and make a fortune, I would have gone home a long time ago to make a child with you! Hehe!

All right! I'll take care of it, so you don't have to ask! I see you're a little sluggish this month, are you pregnant?

After Qiu Tong listened, his pretty face was slightly red, and a smug and happy smile appeared on his face, and he came to Gao Huaiyuan's side and said to him: You are all bad! People didn't come this month! When I saw something to eat, I was a little nauseated, and I thought I should be pregnant! You've got to be nicer to me! Otherwise, I won't follow!

When Gao Huaiyuan heard Qiu Tong's words, all his anger suddenly disappeared, and he immediately hugged Qiu Tong and laughed: Haha! I Gao Huaiyuan finally has a queen! Ha ha! What a happy event! Then you don't want to do these things of serving tea and water in the future! It's better to nourish the body well, quickly! I'm going to write to my father and tell him the good news! Let Daddy be happy too! Hehe!

Qiu Tong was very happy to see Gao Huaiyuan's overjoyed appearance, and after getting tired of Gao Huaiyuan for a while, Qiu Tong left Gao Huaiyuan's study and went to rest in the back.

But at this time, Erhu hurriedly broke in and shouted: My lord, something happened at home! Sir, he
