Zhao Guangyi now has the feeling of being in the Heavenly Empire, and the setbacks he encountered in the Black Snake Ridge in Hengshan have long been thrown out of the clouds. b The loss of tens of thousands of soldiers was like a feather to him, and the reason why he was in a hurry to stop the war was because of the failure of the lightning tactic, and the Liao State had already reacted, and with the Liao State there, it was impossible for him to follow the steps and calmly enter and occupy Hexi.

At the same time, Bashu is his big rear, the rear is unstable, and the left and right of Bashu are the territories of several countries that have just been destroyed, Zhao Guangyi is worried that there will be problems in the rear, and he does not dare to concentrate on attacking Hexi. Now it's different, as soon as the imperial court frees up its hands, the bandits on the Bashu side are immediately driven out, Zhao Guangyi even imagines whether he can drive them to Longyou without destroying them, the more chaotic Longyou is, the higher the dependence of the Lin court on all forces, which is obviously beneficial to the empire.

Because the Bashu bandits entered Guanzhong, Chang'an stayed behind, and Zhao Guangmei, the king of Qi, was temporarily promoted to the commander of the theater, and had a certain command of people, money, and materials in his hands, but Zhao Guangyi was not worried about this, the forbidden army was being transferred to Guanzhong one after another, and the forbidden army was Zhao Guangmei's commanded man.

Zhao Guangyi has never worried that his brother dares to rebel, this third brother does not have the eldest brother's cultural and military strategy, and he is 108,000 miles worse than him, the reason why Zhao Guangyi is afraid of him is just that he is worried about his first succession.

Yang Hao of Xia Guo is now much more tame, which is also expected by him, even if he is a scoundrel, once he becomes the emperor, it is impossible to show the habits of the scoundrel back then. Hexi has achieved Yang Hao's hegemony, but it will not become his fetters, with such a big shell on his back, he can't leave, no matter how smart he is, he can't take out his previous attitude to face Song Guo.

In fact, Zhao Guangyi has now noticed that the imperial court has a serious shortage of external intelligence, and has increased the reconnaissance of Liao, Xia and Longyou, some of whom have even penetrated the center of the Xia State, from the information he currently has in Song Liao, the Xia State has obviously chosen the Song State as a dependent, and the Liao State is in the stage of doubting the Lord Shaoguo, and the mother has completely lost the courage to expand abroad.

The first batch of war horses from the Xia Kingdom has been delivered, five hundred are tribute, and four thousand five hundred are trades. But even with those 500 tribute horses, the reward value of the court's return far exceeded that of the tribute horses. The Song Kingdom is strong, and this bit of wealth can afford it, and the Heavenly Empire only needs the submission of the Four Yis, and it doesn't need to get much benefit from them, what benefits can they take out there?

The Song State rarely imported so many war horses at one time, and two or three more transactions were enough for the time being, Cao Bin was right, the Song State did not have a place to raise horses, and it was a burden to introduce too many war horses, if the army was really transformed into cavalry, it would be to put the national weapons into the hands of people. When the Song State didn't need so many horses for the time being, what else could the Western Xia use to trade with the Song State? Thinking that Yang Hao would have to ask Song Guo for more Tsubaki trade in the future, Zhao Guangyi couldn't help but smile......

There is no threat from the outside world at present, and next, there are only two things he has to solve, one is Zhao Guangmei, he has to find a fork to completely abolish him and make him lose the right to inherit the throne, this matter may take three years, maybe five years, and he can always find an opportunity. Another thing is to purge the old ministers of the former dynasty, he knows how powerful the empire he inherited is, but he does not feel like he wants to do whatever he wants, at the beginning of his succession, he wants to make an appearance to the people of the world, he can only follow the rules and follow the established policies of the emperor step by step.

Now the throne has been firmly seated, but the old ministers of the previous dynasty are not so smooth, because these old ministers will naturally form a group in front of the new monarch and defend each other. On the other hand, it is because of these old ministers of the former dynasty, there were many people who were on his equals at the beginning, and many of them he had given gifts in private and tried his best to stammer, and now he is always a little unreasonable and unreasonable to face them. He believed that if this empire was completely based on his will and let him be like a finger, he would definitely be able to establish a feats far beyond the imperial brother, but many of the old ministers in the court were in the prime of life, even if he was the emperor, he could not be dismissed without fault, and a large number of courtiers were replaced, and the appointment and dismissal of personnel was always troublesome, and it may take ten years to complete a major change of blood for the imperial court.

At this time, Zhang Xun reported to him the news that Zhao Guangmei and Zhao Pu were too close. Zhao Guangyi has been the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and he is very clear about the communication in the officialdom, although because of the special status of Zhao Pu and Zhao Guangmei, he has some jǐng feelings about this matter, but he does not think that these two powerful people can pose any threat to him, but he is overjoyed, and wants to use this matter to make a big fuss and knock Zhao Guangmei over, so that he will never pose any threat to himself again.

However, the results of the investigation brought up by the Imperial City Division surprised Zhao Guangyi. He had known that Zhao Guangmei was active in Chang'an for a long time, but now under the full investigation of the Imperial City Division, he found that Zhao Guangmei's actions were more than that, he privately hoarded a large amount of grain and grass, and faked the opportunity for the Bashu bandits to enter the customs, and he trained a guard of 3,000 people, which was the banner of the Xiang Army, but the equipment he had was better than that of the forbidden army. He often met with officials and generals in Guanzhong and rewarded them......

Of course, these things are absolutely confidential, and it is easy to hide the eyes and ears of others, but it is not easy to hide the eyes and ears of people who have a heart, plus Cui Dalang's people deliberately leaked it, so a piece of information with solid evidence was submitted to Zhao Guangyi's desk.

The news that Lu Duosun and Zhao Pu had a close relationship was also presented in the investigation of Zhao Guangmei. Lu Duoxun is already the prime minister above 10,000 people under one person, and Zhao Guangyi can't think of any reason for him to betray himself and rebel? Taking such a risk, once you fail, what you gain is completely disproportionate to what you lose, who will rebel? However, what about Wang Jisi, the truth he obtained is not more than being an inner servant, but he still participated in his own conspiracy, maybe Lu Duoxun has a handle in the hands of Zhao Guangmei? Maybe he wants to ask for a hereditary knighthood from among the dragons? Maybe......

Zhao Guangyi didn't want to delve deeper, the information he had obtained had already clearly shown: Third Brother Guangmei was very opposed! With the evidence in his hands, he can remove the prince and ban him from the capital. And Lu Duoxun may not really vote for Zhao Guangmei, just like when Zhao Pu was the prime minister and he was the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, the two of them also had a close relationship with Wu Yueguo Qian Jiao, and the bribes they received were huge, but they definitely did not betray the idea of betraying the Great Song Dynasty and joining Wu Yue.

Perhaps, Zhao Guangmei befriended Lu Duoxun, and Lu Duosun traffic Zhao Guangmei was also the same as he was back then. However, there is no need to investigate the truth, it is not beautiful to find out that Lu Duosun is not guilty of a major crime, and Zhao Guangyi decided to use this matter to completely solve the hidden dangers in the DPRK and China! For this, what is the point of sacrificing a Ludoson? ”

Zhao Guangyi thought excitedly, and suddenly left the seat of a bunch of windows, the wind blew in, lifted the curtain, and the book on the desk opened and closed again, it was early summer, the wind was not cold, but with the smell of cháo wet, a heavy rain was coming.

Zhao Guangyi stood in the wind, his blood was surging, he hadn't had such a hearty feeling for a long time, especially the soldiers and horses had won before they moved, this feeling, he liked it!

How many things are never in a hurry; Heaven and earth turn, light yīn pressing. 100,000 years is a long time, seize the day. The four seas are churning, the clouds and water are angry, and the five continents are shaking and the wind and thunder are fierce. Sweep away all pests and insects, and be invincible!

r

At the beginning of the month, a very strange caravan came to Lingzhou, they drove many carts, full of things, but after arriving at Lingchuan, they did not sell goods, nor did they live in inns, but lived in a large house in the east of the city. At the beginning of the year, the house was already up, but no one in the city knew who bought the land and who built such a large house there.

After these people moved in, it took another half a month to hang up a memorial arch "Jiyun Weaving Workshop" and then began to recruit workers.

Women in the northwest also bear important family life responsibilities, and are already engaged in a large number of social labor, Yang Hao encouraged women to do things after entering Hexi, making the northwest more open. The weaving workshop pays wages according to rì, and the wages are more, and the weaving work is not heavy physical work, and the younger and older ones can do it, and the owner claims that as long as the contract is signed, it will be given free training.

It is said that the owner of this weaving workshop is a continuation from the south of the Yangtze River, and there will be more people to come, they brought looms spinning wheels, silk reeling machines, silk reeling machines, silk winding machines, jacquard, printing machinery, and also brought many craftsmen, the northwest region of sericulture is not developed, but mulberry trees and silkworms are not unable to grow here, if you want to develop the textile industry, you can use the continuous mountains of Helan Mountain to cultivate a large number of mulberry trees, and before the sericulture and cultivation form a scale, the weaving workshop is not useless.

Northwest now sericulture and planting is not in the hair, but cotton planting has gradually become a trend, Yang Hao since the occupation of Xiazhou is more vigorous development, formed a very large scale, silk can not be woven temporarily, can weave cloth, and the northwest region cattle, alpacas and other livestock are numerous, can vigorously develop the wool textile industry. Cashmere and camels: the added value of production is no less than that of silk.

When they were established, the Northwest would not have to sell only furs and meat products to earn other necessities, but would be able to process expensive clothing and export it for a large sum of gold and silver.

No one knows that the owner of this weaving workshop is Li Zhongyu, the former prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he knows very well about Nuying's marriage to Yang Hao, but he is helpless, what conditions can the people who died in the country make, not to mention that Yang Hao is really good to him, at least he doesn't have to worry about his "violent illness and death" 0 weeks later, he is only a few years older than him after 0 Xiao Zhou, it is his aunt, she married Yang Hao, Li Zhongyu has more protection.

He didn't want to be an official, but chose another path, completely abandoned his original identity, and through Yang Hao's operation, he became a distant nephew of Li Yide in Yinzhou, and then opened a weaving workshop, with Yang Hao and Li Yide to support him, coupled with the deep return of this industry, a few decades later, maybe he will become a rich man in Hexi, and the whereabouts of the original Southern Tang Prince Li Zhongyu may become a mystery in history that can never be solved.

Similar things are happening throughout Hexi, glass, ceramic firing, smelting, casting, salt boiling, coal mining, papermaking, tanning, clothing making, book engraving, the rise and demand of these industries, and led to the growth of planting, animal husbandry, mining and other upstream industries.

Although all industries have shown a prosperous momentum, the investment in the early stage is also large, and the entire imperial court is now living very tightly, and at this time, Aguli, the prefect of Ganzhou, asked the imperial court for food.

Ganzhou is the most heavy place where Yang Hao's western expedition caused losses, due to the death of a large number of young people, and was taken away by the night Luosu, the blow to Ganzhou Hui is even heavier, the last winter, is barely spent with the support of Yang Hao, now has just entered the early summer, the new harvest has not come down, Ganzhou is very sad.

The people of Ganzhou City are mainly engaged in a variety of handicrafts, such as the classification and processing of animal skin, hair, meat, horns, tendons, glue, bones, etc., as well as the resulting bow and crossbow manufacturing, wool manufacturing, dried meat and so on.

Although the population has been greatly reduced due to the war, most of the people who have been reduced are young and strong, which is a heavy blow to their animal husbandry, so Agul can only continue to ask Yang Hao for food.

After listening to Fan Siqi's report, Yang Hao's face immediately sank: "The imperial court has given them a lot of food, and the imperial court's food is also limited, so ask the imperial court for food now, what should I do this winter?" What about next year? The tax has not been paid much, and the anti-worm has played a bottomless pit of dissatisfaction! ”

Fan Siqi agreed repeatedly, and said worriedly: "The king, the difficulties of the court are naturally known, but the 200,000 people in Ganzhou, who couldn't eat food before, will take them to rob at night, rob Suzhou, rob Liangzhou, and use human lives to grab grain, and now Ganzhou is a place for the imperial court, with mountains to the south and deserts to the north, if they make a living, will they ......?"

Yang Hao sneered: "They dare!" Night Falling Soldier Feng was not a lonely opponent at its peak, and now there is only one Agul left, what is she going to do against? ”

"Yes, yes, but...... If you are desperate......"

Yang Hao frowned, pondered for a long time, and smiled slightly: "Now the Yellow River is being cultivated along the river, and there is a lack of a large number of people. Those tribes who can't survive can be relocated and resettled by orphans. Fan Siqi hesitated: "I'm afraid...... Lady Aguli won't say yes......

Yang Hao smiled slyly: "The Ganzhou prefect's yamen aren't all her people, right?" Tell the wind to be released over there, if Aguli doesn't release people, then starving people to death is Aguli's business alone, and it has nothing to do with Lonely, she can't bear this responsibility, and she will definitely release people. ”

The Musher sat in the corner thoughtfully, and he remembered the last time Princess Aguli made a pilgrimage to the king, how the king had treated her with courtesy, almost with great care and responsiveness, and he could see clearly the greed and possessiveness in his eyes. However, on one occasion, it is said that the queen invited Princess Aguli into the harem, and soon she came out with a crimson face and anger, and from that day on, the king's attitude towards her completely changed, perhaps......

The Musher people were pondering, and Yang Hao turned his face to see him and asked, "Musheren, what are you thinking?" ”

"Ahh Mu Yuqiao said wistfully: "Minister...... I am thinking that the Hui people have always refused to accept education and have no king's law. It is a good idea for the king to give him land now and turn it into fixed farming, but if they really move the whole tribe and the whole tribe over, because the tribe is self-contained, it will still be difficult for the local government to intervene, it seems that ...... Separation is easy to manage. ”

Yang Hao said with a smile: "This is natural, when the Ganzhou tribe comes, the orphan will disperse all the tribes that have migrated over, and send them to the five prefectures of Dinghuaijing Shunxing, and the five prefectures will scatter them again, and they will be scattered in the prefectures and counties in the state, and the prefectures and counties will be scattered again, and they will be sent to the townships according to the households, so that the original tribal chiefs can be deprived of their control over their clansmen and completely control them in the hands of the imperial court."

Hehe, this point, Gu has long thought of it, when Gu was still an official in the Song State, he led 50,000 people of the Han State to return to the Song Dynasty eastward, and the will he received was like this, which is indeed a good way to settle a large number of immigrants. ”

At this point, he said with emotion: "It's a pity that the Khitans chased too quickly and blocked us in front, and in desperation, we had to turn back to the northwest." That's why Lone has what it is today. ”

The Mushe people laughed and said: "How can it be said that it is a pity, it should be a blessing, fortunately the Khitan people intervened, and I have a British lord in Hexi who rules the land of the eighteen states."

Yang Hao looked up to the sky and laughed: "Haha, yes, it is indeed a blessing for Lone, at that time, Lone would never have imagined that there is today." Now it has the land of the eighteen states of Hexi, the fertile fields and grasslands, the smelting forests, the cotton and linen salt skins..., the applications are all, and I never dreamed that there would be ten ten."

At this time, a guard quietly walked in and handed a secret letter to Yang Hao. Yang Hao took it, his eyes lit up sharply, and then the well became as deep as a well, and he didn't know what kind of news he saw.

The Mushe people knew that it was a shadow guard, just like the official of the Imperial City Division of the Great Song Dynasty, and was an intelligence officer directly under the ruler, so what this guard passed to Yang Hao must be the most confidential information, but unfortunately he didn't know what the information was saying at all, even though he was a living housekeeper, not any secret could be mastered.

It's just that when the king sees the information, he always has to react accordingly, and through the king's every word and deed, every move, as long as he observes carefully, he can always guess something. But the Mushe people never expected that the Yang Dawang in front of him would start acting when he was in Bianliang, and he would play a Yang big stick mallet to the flesh. Later, he used his daughter Yixiao Lou to start directing, and he was already a senior actor. This old actor who gave up filming and joined politics is now acting again, but he was acting for the Tokyo Mancheng Civil and Military Force, but now it is the opposite, this time it was the Xingzhou Manchu Dynasty Civil and Military Acting for him alone.

Yang Hao didn't need to react, and he didn't need to discuss with anyone, because what he had to do had already been arranged, and the information he saw was just a notice, and the notice sent back by Zhe Ziyu only had a ciphertext on the notice that was not ciphertext: The stealing of the sky is imminent! ∫！
