Before the fifth watch, Chen Ke's father and son arrived at the hospital to be missed, and naturally became the focus of attention of hundreds of officials. "" The new champion is the hot time, and no one will be stupid enough to say cool things at this time. Besides, Chen Ke has just reached the weak crown, and he has already been promoted from the sixth rank to the court, and it is almost inevitable to worship the prime minister in the future, who wants to offend him for no reason?

Therefore, what Chen Ke heard were words of praise and praise, and what he saw were also enthusiastic faces.

However, looking at him being surrounded by everyone, the appearance of the young man's ambition, there are indeed many people who have pantothenic acid in their hearts, no way, they are already court officials at the age of twenty, they have survived for more than 20 years from selecting people to Beijing officials to court officials, and now they are fifty or sixty years old, on the verge of retirement, and they are still behind this young man when they are on duty, they are really envious, jealous and hateful......

But there are many people who are really happy, in addition to acquaintances, more are fellow villagers in Sichuan. Once every four years, the green money is ten thousand choices, and the unique champion is in Shuzhong, which is the first time in the world. All the township party is honored with honor, and they went to Chen's house to congratulate them on the same day, and at this moment Chen Ketou came back to the court, and naturally surrounded him.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Sichuan was a cultural desert 20 years ago, and in the 70 or 80 years since the founding of the country, not a single jinshi has come out. Therefore, in the past 20 years, the Jinshi who came out of the four roads in Shuzhong have a strong consciousness and feel that they are fighting the world for the Sichuan people.

Although Sichuan has become rich again and its culture and education have developed, and in recent years, Sichuan Jinshi has begun to blow out, but this concept of the township party has not changed. No, the dignitaries from Sichuan all came to Chen Kezhen, among which Wang Qi and Fan Zhen were still the deputy examiners of the exam, although the Song Dynasty strictly forbade the protégé and the teacher, but this friendship between teachers and students cannot be erased.

So the two high-ranking officials became the guide of Chen Ke's officialdom, among which Fan Zhen was silent, mainly Wang Qi was guiding him, looking at the sky, Wang Qi got up and said: "The first time I went to the court, come with me to worship your ministers." ”

Chen Ke followed Wang Qi. I went to the duty room of the government affairs first. Fu Bi, Zeng Gongliang and others were all there, and Chen Ke honestly visited them one by one in accordance with officialdom etiquette. In addition to congratulations and warm words of encouragement, they also asked some homely questions such as Nian Geng and Kunzhong.

Of course, as the prime minister, the rich minister still has to say a few more words, exhorting him: "You are now in the lead." The Jinshi of the undergraduate is looking forward to your horse's head. Backward students also want to follow in your footsteps, and you have the responsibility to lead morale. I hope that you will not only use your own plans for the future, but also be strict with self-discipline. Shake up the morale that is now more and more flashy and hedonistic! ”

Chen Kewei responded, and his old face couldn't help but blush slightly. He couldn't hear that Fu Xianggong was hinting at himself. The life of a drunken fan is too absurd, and you have to restrain yourself.

But a gentleman like Fu Xianggong stopped at the point, and he would never let him lose his face, and after saying some words of praise and encouragement, he let him go.

came out of political affairs, turned around and went to the duty room of the Privy Council, I thought it was also a routine, but who knew that Han Xianggong hissed: "The champion is a good one." The old man is trying to talk to you and ask you for advice. ”

"It's too much to say." Chen Ke hurriedly said.

"Please sit down," Han Qi nodded, motioned for Chen Ke to sit beside him, and said to Wang Qi: "Yuyu will be busy first if he has something to do." ”

This is the eviction of guests, Wang Jue said obediently: "I really have something to do, so I won't disturb the conversation with my father-in-law." He smiled at Chen Ke and said, "I can get Han Xianggong's advice." It's your blessing, so I'll go back first. ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After Wang Qi left, Han Qi looked at Chen Ke and said, "I've heard of the name for a long time, you are a character." Therefore, the old man does not take the frame of the younger generation, we are open and honest. There is no end to the words. "...," the subordinate obeyed. This is the first time Chen Ke has seen this famous handsome and rich man, and he feels that he does not match the legendary arrogance of the unsparing eyes. As everyone knows, it was Han Xianggong ten years ago, and now Han Qi is already three up and three down, and he has long since reined in his edge.

"I have asked someone to copy your recital on the little biography, and I have read it carefully, and it is indeed not idle." Han Qi didn't talk nonsense with him, and went straight to the point.

"Awards."

"It seems that you have put a lot of effort into the situation in the southwest border, am I right?" Although Han Qi's voice was hoarse, it was also very majestic.

"Yes!" Chen Ke thought for a moment and replied: "Xiaguan's hometown, because it is located in the west and adjacent to the feudal states of Tubo, Dali, Jiaozhi and other feudal states, often has the worry of being 100 years old when studying, so he has been studying the military, government and people in the southwest, but his qualifications are foolish and he has no achievements at all. ”

"Don't be too humble! This is a unique science in the Great Song Dynasty. You can pay attention to it, which shows that it is extraordinary. Han Qi said: "What do you think of Nong Zhigao's defection to Dali this time?" ”

Chen Ke's recital with the official family that day was actually just a general talk, and it was more than enough to bluff those literary ministers who didn't know the world; But in front of Han Qi, who is known as a martial artist, it is not enough. Therefore, he could not help but be cautious.

After careful consideration, he said slowly: "The lower officials think that Nong Zhigao is a confidant like Li Yuanhao, and the imperial court must not repeat the mistakes of the past and let it recur. Now that he has left Guangxi and gone to Yunnan, he is actually like a tree without roots and water without a source, and it is the best time to hunt him down. After a pause, he said: "In addition to Nong Zhigao himself, what is more important is Dali Guo...... Dali is connected to several states of the Great Song Dynasty, and is bordered by Tubo in the north and Jiaozhi in the south, which is extremely important to the national defense and security of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Han Qi nodded slowly, although he didn't say anything approving of it, his expression was thoughtful, obviously he attached great importance to his words.

"With all due respect, the land under the jurisdiction of Dali has been an inseparable part of the Sui and Tang dynasties since the Qin Dynasty, through the two Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasties, and the Northern and Southern Dynasties. From the end of the Tang Dynasty to the present dynasty, there was Nanzhao first, and then Dali, which was out of the jurisdiction of the imperial court. However, due to the strategy of emphasizing the north over the south, as well as the preconceived misunderstanding of the Dali people, this dynasty has always deliberately alienated them and kept them on guard, which is not right in the eyes of the lower officials. ”

"Oh." Han Qi smiled: "What's wrong?" ”

"Yes, the non-ethnic groups must have different hearts, and the regimes established by foreign races, such as the Liao State, Western Xia, Jiaozhi, and even the original Tubo and Nanzhao, all pose a serious threat to our central court. In reality, the living lessons made the imperial court vigilant and even alienated from Dali, but this understanding was too subjective and arbitrary. Specific problems must be analyzed in detail, and food cannot be wasted due to choking. ”

"Hmm." Han Qi nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"The imperial court has always regarded Dali as a continuation of the Nanzhao Kingdom, and believes that the Nanzhao Kingdom is extremely aggressive, so they are also dangerous. In fact, Dali is diametrically opposed to Nanzhao, Nanzhao is keen on expansion, Dali is keen on infighting, and Buddhism is prevalent in its country, and the people have a lot of closeness to the Great Song Dynasty. Chen Ke hit the nail on the head and said: "To put it bluntly, this is a regime as moderate as the Great Song Dynasty." Their rulers never wanted to cross the Dadu River and pose a threat to the borders of our country. ”

"Hmm." Han Qi finally showed an appreciative gaze and said, "You can understand this, it means that you have real talent to learn." The conversation changed, but he smiled and said: "But according to what you say, Nong Zhigao will definitely not be able to set off a big storm in Dali, so we don't have to pay attention to it." ”

"The prime minister is in the examination school." Chen Ke smiled faintly and said: "The rebellion of the four Yi began with the disobedience of the people. Therefore, those who offend my strong man will be punished even if they are far away, so as to deter people's hearts. Besides, now that there are three disputes within Dali, it is impossible to ensure that any of them wants to rely on the power of the Nong clan and overwhelm the other two, although they have no intention of targeting the Great Song Dynasty, they will give Nong Zhigao a chance to turn over. Dali is rich in products, people, horses, copper, iron and everything, really let Nong Zhigao take root, within a few years, he can make a comeback, kill back to Guangxi. "...," Moreover, the next official just said that more important than Nong Zhigao is Dali itself. Xia Guan thinks that Dali has three reasons why it should not be taken seriously. Chen Ke pointed and said: "First, its products are abundant, rich in silver, copper, and horses, which are most scarce in my Great Song Dynasty; Second, the south of Guangyuan Prefecture is a country of Jiaozhi that is ten times more dangerous than Nongzhi, and its people are despicable, although they bow down to their vassals, but they often have the intention of invading the country, if we can subdue Dali, we can make it clamp down on Jiaozhi. In the same way, you can use Jiaozhi to clamp Dali, this use is wonderful, naturally there is no need to say more. Third, the subjugation of Dali is not contrary to our national policy, because although it is our ally in dealing with Western Xia, it is based on its personal will to praise and fight. Once it changes its mind, or its successor falls to Western Xia, the consequences will be unimaginable, and Dali is behind Tubo, controlling the tea and horse trade routes, which is not only an important supply place for it, but also a threat of sharp resistance. After we subdued Dali, no matter who Tubo Zampu was, we had to weigh the danger of being attacked on both sides and cutting off support, and we didn't dare to fall to Western Xia. ”

"Good! Good! Han Qi clapped his hands and praised: "The champion Lang is worthy of his name, and the old man, the privy envoy, will be none other than you in the future." ”

"It's too good to be fair." Chen Ke hurriedly said modestly.

"I fully agree with the benefits of subduing Dali." Han Qi said in a deep voice: "However, the current situation of the imperial court, you must also know very well, it is impossible to start a war again and turn Dali into our enemy." Therefore, what the imperial court can do is just bluff, in fact, not a single soldier will cross the Dadu River, in this case, how to subdue Dali? After a pause, he said: "Dali has been, and the request to become a vassal of the Great Song Dynasty is true, but that was decades ago, who knows, what is their attitude now?" ”

"That's where you have to be in person." Chen Ke said in a deep voice: "Just take advantage of Nong Zhigao's incident to test their attitude." ”——
