In April 1127, the 300,000 troops sent by Jin Taizong Wanyan Sheng to the second southern expedition disappeared inexplicably, and even the Wanyan Si Room who stayed in Datong disappeared, which made him very anxious. Just when he was about to send troops out of the customs again, a shocking news came from the Central Plains, an immortal called "Thunder God" appeared in Kaifeng Mansion, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, this person had great powers, and led 10,000 cavalry to annihilate all the men and horses he sent, and there were no bones left! Later, the return of the Golden Vulture Jochi directly confirmed that this matter was indeed true!

After Yan Sheng was shocked, he ordered someone to keep the news tightly sealed, and summoned Jin Wu Jochi into the palace to talk in detail all night, trying to understand the whole story. And there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the rumors that the Central Plains people have immortals to help each other are still spreading among the people, and they are more mysterious than the news they got before, and even caused a lot of sensation among the ministers.

Wan Yan Sheng had no choice but to issue an edict to suspend the use of troops against the Great Song Dynasty, and make a decision after verifying all the circumstances.

The armistice was originally a good thing, but for the Great Song Dynasty, which had lost half of the country and even more of the monarch, the Jin people stopped using troops at this time, which directly led to the aggravation of civil strife.

On the first day of May in 1127 AD, King Kang Zhao Gou ascended the throne as emperor in Yingtianfu, changed the name of the country to Jianyan, worshiped Li Gang as the prime minister, and issued an edict at the same time, and the world's soldiers and horses gathered on standby, preparing to wave the Northern Expedition.

The edict was issued, but few of the "soldiers and horses in the world" were really willing to obey the order, but Zhang Bangchang, the king of Chu in Kaifeng City, wore shackles and carried his relatives and clansmen to Yingtianfu en masse and asked this Song Gaozong to ask for guilt in person.

What is even more unexpected is that Zhao Gou of Song Gaozong not only did not condemn Zhang Bangchang, but reinstated him as an official and gave him the position of Taishi, for no other reason, just because he tried his best to keep the Zhao ancestral hall intact when he was in Kaifeng Mansion.

After listening to Yang Zizai's angry description, Wan Linggen was also a little dumbfounded, so Zhang Bangchang abandoned the city like this?

Yang Zizai saw that he didn't have any special reaction, sighed and said, "My Generalissimo Wan, why don't you seem to care at all?" ”

Wan Linggen was indeed a little confused, "Brother Yang, is there anything wrong?" ”

"Big wrong!" Yang Zizai paused and said: "Zhang Bangchang, this old treacherous and slippery thing, when he is there, we can push to the end and don't care about anything." But when he left, he left us with a mess down there. ”

Wan Linggen didn't understand what he meant, and looked at him stunned.

Zhang Tongwei brought two cups of tea over and put them on the table, and said softly: "Mr. Yang, you speak slowly, don't worry." ”

Yang Zizai bowed his head slightly and said: "Brother Wan, when he leaves, a large area of the grange in the west of the city has become a borderless land, and there is that large-scale imperial city, will you go?" ”

Wan Linggen said with a smile: "Brother Yang said that I am not the emperor, that place should be King Kang, oh no, it should be Gaozong's." ”

Yang Zizai smiled disdainfully, "Gaozong? He wanted to go, but he had to ask him if he had the guts! ”

Wan Linggen waved his hand, "Then let it be empty." ”

Yang Zizai said again: "Okay, let's not mention the matter of the imperial city for the time being, it's okay to be empty." But what about the fields? ”

Wan Linggen said: "Just send it to those who have no land to plant." ”

Yang Zizi shook his head, "Those lands are the land of those princes and nobles in the past, who has the courage to plant their land?" ”

Wan Linggen frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly patted his head and said, "Brother Yang, how about the delivery to the household?" ”

Yang Zizi was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean by package production to households?" ”

Wan Linggen became excited, he pulled over the chair and sat down, asked Zhang Tongwei to take the pen and paper, and sketched in front of Yang Zizai as he spoke.

Yang Zizai looked at him dumbfounded, and his mouth couldn't close for a long time.

Wan Linggen excitedly drew on the paper, and seeing that Yang Zizi did not react, he raised his head to look at his appearance, and said in a daze: "Brother Yang, didn't I explain it?" Or is it not feasible? ”

Yang Zizai suddenly stood up, came to him, bowed to the ground respectfully, and said sincerely: "Yang Zizai is fortunate to assist Mingjun, three lives are lucky, three lives are lucky!" ”

Wan Linggen pulled him up, "Brother Yang, you can pull him down!" What is the clear monarch who doesn't know the king, I still want to live a few more years. ”

Yang Zizai looked at him with a strange expression and said, "In this case, your method of delivering to the household is definitely not feasible!" ”

Wan Linggen asked in surprise, "Why?" ”

Yang Zizai said: "Since ancient times, most of the land has been in the hands of the eunuchs and gentry, and ordinary people can only be hired farmers. If you do this, you will have to take back some people's land and redistribute it, and if you don't come out and call the shots, who can do it? ”

Wan Linggen froze for a moment.

That's right, the premise of implementing land reform is that the original system must be broken, and no one in Kaifeng City can do this except him.

Yang Zizai didn't wait for him to speak before continuing: "Even if this law is feasible, then many policies related to it need to be changed, such as the tax law and the numismatic law, and they must be adjusted, otherwise it will inevitably cause chaos. ”

Wan Linggen didn't think about it so much, and when he reminded him like this, his head was suddenly as big as a fight, this is a big project that affects the whole body!

"Brother Yang, how many people are available under you?" Wan Linggen asked with a frown.

Yang Zizai smiled bitterly: "Most of the people have followed King Kang away, only a few people stayed, to complete such a huge workload, these few people are far from enough, besides...... They may not be able to fully grasp your thoughts. ”

Wan Linggen fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Why don't you do this first, collect the vacant fields as official fields, and sow them first." Then you find some people with flexible minds, and I'll talk to them first. ”

Yang Zizi nodded, and Wan Linggen's face sank and said, "Inform those so-called gentry that the fields in their hands must be handed over." There are two paths for them to choose, either hand over the land or leave! ”

Yang Zizai said confidently, "As long as you come out to preside over the overall situation in person, I believe no one will dare to object!" ”

Wan Linggen also nodded, "Brother Yang, you blow the wind by the way, as long as my Wan Linggen is still in Kaifeng for a day, all the rules must be set by me, those who are willing to abide by will stay, and those who are unwilling will ask him to leave on his own." ”

Yang Zizi bowed and said, "Okay, I'll do it." ”

Seeing Yang Zizai go out, Wan Linggen shook his head, thinking that his free days would never be again, the top priority at the moment was to find a group of suitable people first, instill their ideas into them, and then let them go down to carry them out, except for moving forward step by step, there was really no other shortcut to go.
