Zhao Zhongzhen thought differently from Wang Bian, as soon as he heard that people were being searched in the city, he couldn't help but say excitedly: "Is it my father and my uncle who are looking for me." ”

This self-inflicted amorous guy, if his uncle wants to find him, he can't let the general of Yongzhou also come to Shaozhou, Wang Fang thought that this place in Guangnan has not been peaceful for a long time since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, and Master Di Qing is also a meritorious person in Pingnan who has risen step by step.

A few people walked for a long time and came to the Guan Yi where Nan Jifeng lived, Wa Zhuang went to Tongyu, and after a while, Nan Jifeng personally greeted him, and when he saw Zhao Zhongzhen, Nan Jifeng was particularly surprised, he didn't see Zhao Zhongzhen grow a lot taller for a few years, and he couldn't imagine that the prince would come so far away.

When Zhe Kejun and others fought the slave country with the king, Wa Zhuang was also familiar with them, so there were no outsiders sitting together, after a few polite words, Nan Jifeng told the reason why he came to Shaozhou to the king, it turned out that this time the king of the county was invited to Shaozhou not only in Yongzhou, where Nan Jifeng was located, the king of the group Zhao Zongchu invited the garrison of the two roads in Guangnan, and among the people invited were the Jiedu envoys of the east and west armies of Guangnan, the left and right Sima, and the system envoys were almost all here, and the lowest official position was also a road supervisor,

Zhao Zhongzhen listened sideways, even if he no longer participated in the government affairs, he knew the official positions of these military generals stationed in the place, and he couldn't help but say to himself: "What did my uncle call these people for." This sentence is not his own question, Nan Jifeng stopped, he looked at Zhao Zhongzhen and then looked at Wang Bian, there were some things he really didn't know if he could say in front of Zhao Zhongzhen, Wang nodded and motioned, let Nan Jifeng continue,

"There are two roads in Quang Nam, east and west, and now most of them support the king of the county and support the king of the county...... Be a prince. Nan Jifeng looked at Zhao Zhongzhen and said the last three words hesitantly,

"What." Zhao Zhongzhen stood up: "My father is in good health, and he has just ascended the throne for less than two years, so he asked my father to make the prince, this, this is too much." He snorted and walked around the room,

Wang Bian is very calm, in the past few years, regardless of the Western Xia, Liao, or the Great Song Dynasty Yingzong who has experienced himself, he has seen too many things to fight for the throne and plot too much, and now he can only say that it is correct not to return to Shaozhou City, but what is the attitude of this Nan Jifeng, he ignores Zhao Zhongzhen's anxiety, Zhongzhen, this kid also has to put some pressure on him, can't let him always be fluttering, Wang Bian thought Nan Jifeng asked: "Brother Nan, what is the situation of Guangnan Road now, what do you think." ”

Nan Jifeng sighed and said: "Now many people follow the county king, if they are successfully canonized, they will be able to follow the success, and there are many people who hope that the county king will be established as a prince." ”

"Then what if you can't be erected?" The tone of the king's words is not inquiry, if he closes his eyes, it seems that the person who decides this matter has disdain for this matter,

Nan Jifeng looked up at the king, the king's eyes were like torches, and his black eyes were shining with cold light, this kind of look, Nan Jifeng and Zhe Kejun and others had seen it countless times, when the king made a decision against the enemy on the battlefield, his eyes would be so sharp and bright, this gaze was enough to make people shudder in their hearts,

Seeing that Nan Jifeng was silent, Wang smiled slightly: "Brother Nan, you and I are brothers who are born and die, who is not established, it doesn't matter if you and I say it, I'm just afraid that you are on the wrong team." ”

At this time, Zhao Zhongzhen also quieted down, he looked at Nan Jifeng nervously, and was also waiting for him to answer the question next to the king, even Zhi Kejun and the others held their breath, the question asked by the king was too direct, not to mention that Nan Jifeng knew in his heart that the answer to this question was very important,

Seeing that Nan Jifeng was still hesitating, Wang got up with a smile and said: "Then since Brother Nan doesn't know, it doesn't matter, let's go back to Shaozhou, and by the way, let the county king send someone to escort King Ying back to the capital, I won't go to Yongzhou with Brother Nan, let's say goodbye." ”

"Wait, don't." Nan Jifeng finally made up his mind, he hurriedly walked over and pulled the arm next to the king: "Oh brother, you are my life-saving benefactor, now I am so stable in Guangnan and enjoy the high-ranking officials, this is all my brother who helped me." ”

"Brother Nan, you also sent troops to help me when I beat the Japanese slaves, don't mention the old things." Wang waved his hand, he still knows Nan Jifeng very well, this person is very grateful, and he is not a person who commits rebellion, even his father's uprising in Guangnan is mostly due to the injustice of the imperial court, there is really no way,

Nan Jifeng said with a look of shame, "Quick, don't mention fighting the Japanese slaves, we followed your brother, you got a lot of light, and you divided so much gold and silver, brother, you want those waste papers that can't be used in the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Wang Bian knew that Nan Jifeng said that it was those grain stamps from Goryeo, and this matter had to be kept secret from Zhao Zhongzhen for the time being, and the words had already been said, Wang Bian saw that Nan Jifeng was very sincere, and he smiled: "Those waste papers will be useful sooner or later, why did you stop us from going back to Shaozhou, Brother Nan, just now." ”

Having said that, Nan Jifeng didn't want to hide it, he said sincerely: "Brother, I understand what you said, my father rebelled because he led the troops to resist Jiaozhi, but he didn't get fair treatment, and I'm different, I have your brother's care, and I don't want to have any chaos today, now, the king of the county gathers in Guangnan and Guangnan, and some of these people preach that if the prince does not establish the king of the county, then Guangnan will support the army and stand on its own, you also know that my state is in the southwest of Guangnan East Road, It can be said that it is the border of the Great Song Dynasty, if you don't rely on the forces of Guangnan, you can only be attacked by the king of the county and Jiaozhi on both sides, who says that you are not afraid of war, it is nonsense,

If you really fight, you will give your life and the lives of the soldiers in vain, not to mention that I don't know who I died for, I don't know what to do when I don't know what to do, you came, I didn't go to Shaozhou to call my brother to discuss. ”

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhao Zhongzhen, who was pale, and whispered to the king: "How do I know, you brought King Ying here, if he enters Shaozhou and is taken by those who are planning to incite the rebellion of the county king, his life will be gone, and it may be used to blackmail the saint, I let you go back to Shaozhou, won't I become a sinner?" ”

Zhao Zhongzhen was terrified when he heard it, when he became the crown prince, he didn't have so many scheming, he just complained about his father; But Guangnan rebelled on both sides, then the matter was big, he couldn't figure out why his uncle did this, and when he had no choice, he suddenly asked: "Brother Wang, didn't you say that the generals sent by our Great Song Dynasty will be rotated, and if he really has bad intentions, it won't be easy to succeed." ”

Nan Jifeng is very familiar with the form of Guangnan, he hurriedly explained: "Official transfer, that is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the minister next to the emperor, the emperor can think of a transfer, Guangnan is different, the assessment officials will be promoted, those officials this year Xunzhou, tomorrow Liuzhou, although there is a transfer, but they all belong to Guangnan Road, what is the difference between this and not transferred, besides, the emperor is in the palace, may not really know the distance between the states, don't say others, you look at me, how many years have I been in Yongzhou, our Great Song Dynasty still has regulations that officials are not local officials, I'm not an exception. ”

What he said was true, the king looked at Zhao Zhongzhen, and just now Zhongzhen sighed: I didn't expect the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to be so big, they all said that the Son of Heaven was under his feet, and the Son of Heaven didn't know how big it was.

Zhao Zhongzhen still didn't believe what Nan Jifeng said: "Then even if the generals are not rotated, the soldiers will take turns to be stationed, is this an exception in Guangnan." ”

"There will be exceptions to everything, and the transfer of officials can be confused, so what's so difficult to move the number of troops." Nan Jifeng said disdainfully: "Also, do you know how many soldiers the county king has, I heard that there are five thousand soldiers and horses in the county king, not counting the garrisons from all walks of life, if this is gathered, it will not be underestimated." ”

"Five thousand." This number made the king a little surprised, not to mention the county king who had no military power, Song Taizu weakened the military power, and the governors of each state were only three thousand.

"Now there is a saying in Guangnan: it is hard to pay taxes and miscellaneous taxes and labor, it is better to fill the county king's mansion, and the common people have settled in the county king's mansion as tenants in order to avoid taxes and labor, but a tenant is meaningful, saying that it is a tenant but is paid according to the treatment of soldiers, and the poll tax is paid by the county king's mansion, if the county king blatantly recruits troops, can the emperor rest assured that there are more soldiers, but who knows how much land the county king has, how many families, and how many tenants."

"This, this, what is this called, what can I do about this, Brother Wang, you quickly think of a way." Zhao Zhongzhen said, walked in front of the king, and anxiously pulled the king's arm and shook it.

Wang was angry and funny, this pampered prince is only now starting to get anxious: "There is no way, this is called a policy and a countermeasure." Zhong Zhen's face was swollen and red at this time, "Brother Wang, it's all this time, and you are still smiling." ”

Nan Jifeng also said: "Brother, now I will listen to you, what do you say." ”

In the memory of the king, there is no controversy about Zhao Zhongzhen's accession to the throne, besides, the small county palace is in turmoil, thousands of people can be nothing, Guangnan is so big, as long as there are people like Nan Jifeng who can't make up their minds, then the power of the county king may not really be condensed, the crown prince has not been established for a day, this is all suspense, the county king will not act rashly, the court still has time, the top priority is to send Zhao Zhongzhen back to the capital as soon as possible, Shaozhou will not check the people who come and go for no reason, it is possible that the county king has already known that Zhao Zhongzhen is in Shaozhou, This is not the attitude of the prince,

Thinking of this, Wang ordered Kejun to quickly escort King Ying back to the capital; Let Nan Jifeng return to Yongzhou first, his geographical location is very important, and it is related to the problem of resisting Jiaozhi, and the county king will not help him; He also instructed Zhao Zhongzhen to return to the capital to be cautious in his words and deeds, and everyone agreed, and Zhao Zhongzhen asked the king: "What about the uncle's self-reliance." ”

A cold light flashed in Wang Bei's eyes, seeking self-reliance, thinking of beauty, he sought self-reliance and how his father would govern in the future, "I don't know if you have the right to return to the capital, and Mr. Hou will tell you what to do when the time comes." ”

"But Mr. Hou, they are still in Shaozhou City."

The king smiled: "I'll go find them." "Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he prefers to go to Tiger Mountain, and Wang knows that it is not easy to come out if he only goes back to Shaozhou, at least he has to go to the king of the county, so he must go back to Shaozhou,
