"The master is inside, Lord Luo, please come in."

The old family led Luo Kedi to the front of the tent and stopped and said.

In front of it is a warm shed, a sloping shed with sloping eaves, a yellow mud wall, a thick straw on the roof, and a few small windows on the roof, both for ventilation and for the sun to shine in. This is actually a flower house, a place for large families to play with flowers and plants, and it is cold in autumn and winter in the north, and large families have built such a conservatory house.

It was not very suitable to meet guests in this kind of place, but Cao Bin was still nominally Luo Kedi's superior, and his qualifications and prestige were far above him, so there was nothing inappropriate to meet juniors and subordinates in this place.

There is a smell of mud and rotting grass in the shed, and the long shed is still separated in the middle, and perhaps there are some fresh vegetables planted in the back sheds. Luo Kedi gently walked into the flower room, and saw an old man in a short coat and a square scarf on his head leaning over and fiddling with pots of blooming flowers among the flowers. The flowers and plants in the shed are mostly chrysanthemums, but it is also the time of season, there are many varieties of chrysanthemums, this bush is as white as fertile snow, that bush is as bright as gold, some are dense like the stars in the sky, some flowers bloom like silk, faintly, there is a faint fragrance to come.

Luo Kedi stood still, looking at the general Cao who was serving with a bush of I, Jiangdong Erqiao, whoever looked at him at the moment was an ordinary old man, if he didn't know him, he might be regarded as a flower farmer in Caofu, where is there still a little bit of general spirit who has thousands of troops in his hands and looks down on the world to fight in all directions. His expression is tranquil, quite a bit of picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing the artistic conception of Nanshan.

However, the country is in danger, the society is in danger, although Cao Bin no longer looks at things, he doesn't believe that he doesn't know anything about the situation in the world, can he really do it so indifferently?

"Humble Roke, see Privy Councillor." Roke took a deep breath and saluted with his hands forked.

The old man in the cloth robe, with a leisurely demeanor, turned his head to look at him, still playing with the flowers and plants, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a matter of the Luo Academy, the old man has been idle at home for a long time, and many friendly colleagues rarely move around, how can Lord Luo have time to come to the door today?" ”

Luo Kedi's handsome face was hot, Zhao Guang's intention to wash the old ministers of the previous dynasty was very obvious, Cao Bin lost power, and the civil and military officials naturally avoided it, Luo Kedi has never had any friendship with him, and naturally there is no possibility of getting close to him at this time, speaking of which, this direct boss's mansion, he is really the first time to come back.

At the moment, Luo Kedi couldn't take care of it so much, and said straight to the point: "Lord Privy Council, the country is in danger, it has reached the danger of overturning overnight, how can the important ministers of the Privy Council and the country stay out of the matter, if the country is in trouble and the jade is burned, why should the people of the world suffer, I am afraid that you will also ............ I came here to seek advice from my lordship, and in the current situation, what should I do, and I also ask my lord for advice. ”

Cao Bin paused in his hand, sighed lightly, and said without raising his head and opening his eyes: "Luo Yuanshi, now the king of Qi is in trouble in the pass, the court and the place, each with different intentions, the scholars and the common people are panicked, and there are several major businessmen fighting methods, which have greatly damaged the vitality of the country, and this is not enough, now the Xixia Chen Binghuang Pass, the Northern Liao Tiger Eye Three Passes, and now the situation is ......, you should know better than the old man, just ask such a situation, the old man is a martial artist, even if it is Zhou Gong Yiyin, Guan Zhong Xiao He, and even Zhuge Wuhou resurrected, such a tattered situation, and how to clean up? ”

Roque said to the enemy: "Is it now that you can only sit and wait to die?" ”

Cao Bin said slowly: "Unless...... Only by quickly quelling civil strife and reorganizing people's hearts can we resist strong enemies in the north and re-secure the Central Plains. ”

Luo Kedi smiled a little bitterly: i, Lord Privy Council, how easy is it to quell the civil strife, the chaos in front of us is not only the Guanzhong Xingbing, there is only one Guanzhong Xingbing, and it is not an overnight peace, not to mention, the Northern Dynasty is in the three passes, aggressive, how can we calmly clean up the mountains and rivers? ”

Cao Bin heaved and said: "A martial artist is a martial artist, can it only be used to fight?" ”

Luo Ke's enemy god moved, and hurriedly asked, "What is the opinion of the Privy Council?" ”

Cao Bin was silent, and Luo Kedi hurriedly said: "Out of the mouth of the adult, into the ear of the lowly position, the lowly and the adult are just privately detailed, leaving this flower room, it will be impossible to count, the adult has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say." ”

Cao Bin said slowly: "The only way to plan today is ...... Yingqi King, abolishing the present, can reorganize people's hearts and clean up the mountains and rivers. ”

Luo Ke's face changed greatly: "There is no fault against the sky today, how can your subordinates be deposed lightly, how is this different from rebellion?" ”

Cao Bin glanced at him coldly and said: "The first of the seven major sins mentioned in King Qi's "Asking for Zhao Hao's Order" is to kill the king, and there is the blood book of the former queen as evidence, do you believe it or not?" ”

Luo Kedi was silent, obviously believing it. Cao Bin said again: "In this case, it is not right to get the throne today, and it is not in line with the righteousness to return the country and the king?" ”

Luo Kedi said in a deep voice: "There are Zhang Bo, Song Qi, Cheng Yu, Jia Jiao and others in the court, all of whom are the henchmen of the first emperor, and the king is abolished. ”

Cao Bin slowly raised his head and smiled contemptuously: "But the military power is not in their hands." ”

"Li Jilong, the general of the border pass, holds heavy troops and guards the border pass, he is the uncle of the country today."

"Today's saint is not his own nephew, not to mention the current righteousness, where to go, if he is not stupid, he should have a choice. The old man also knows how important the move is, but the current situation is no longer something that can be cleaned up, and the civil strife will continue, and the country will not be returned to the son of the first emperor, and the morale of the people will be difficult to recover, so the situation will not be cleaned up at all. If Li Jilong knows the general situation and the righteousness, then he can join the righteous deeds, otherwise he will ......"

Cao Bin raised his hand slightly, pulled a small grass from the flower pot, and said lightly: "Although he has a heavy army and sits in the three levels, if he wants to kill him, it is just like pulling grass mustard!" ”

Luo Ke's face changed slightly, Li Jilong had just been promoted, and he still lacked his own confidants in the army, judging from Cao Bin's words, although this tiger was already at home, but it was not long before the minions were still sharp, and there must be his henchmen among the generals under Li Jilong, and if necessary, he could use these people to get rid of Li Jilong. No matter what you have the ability to dodge, you can't dodge the open guns or the hidden arrows, from this point of view, the emperor's generals, the peddlers' pawns are the same, and their lives are the same.

And Cao Bin's words obviously revealed another meaning, he is no longer planning for Luo Kedi, but deliberately participating in it, more precisely, where is this great general who is dead in the heart of fiddling with flowers and plants at home, the current situation in the world has already fallen into his eyes, I am afraid that these four generals are already planning to abolish the establishment.

In this way, Zhai Musi, the former secretary of the palace, is already his accomplice, and now he instructed himself to ask Cao Bin for advice, which is simply to pull him in, if he doesn't agree, will he still be able to get out of this door today?

As soon as he thought of this, Luo Kedi couldn't help but be stunned

Sure enough, Cao Bin looked at him and said, "The country is the country, the country is not guaranteed, how can the country come from?" Today, the position is not correct, which has caused the four seas to lose their hearts, and because of frivolity, the order is changed every day, so that the prestige is lost. The Northern Dynasty was raging, the country was in danger, the king of Qi raised troops in Guanzhong, and there were signs of change in the world. If General Luo doesn't make meritorious service and gain wealth at this time, lift a three-foot sword, and make immortal merits, so as to ascend to the rank of the Son of Heaven, do you want to be a sinner of the country? ”

Luo Kedi's body was shocked, and he hesitated: "What the privy said may be done." However, the matter is big, and the humble duty must be ......"

Cao Bin cut off his words and said sharply: "If you can do it, you should make a decision quickly, and if it is late, it will change, and I can't afford to delay it anymore." ”

Luo Kedi originally didn't have any loyalty to Zhao Guangyi's father and son, but once he was not loyal to this monarch but loyal to this country, how to behave, always consider whether it is beneficial to the Great Song Kingdom he protects, and now it is not right, but now after all, he is on the Dan and sat on the dragon bed, if he really wants to turn against him, he is still a little psychological, at this time Cao Bin drank, and finally made up his mind, so he said deeply: "Luo Kedi, I am willing to go to the big move together from the Privy Council!" ”

After a long talk, Luo Kedi, who was in charge of the forbidden army, and Cao Bin, who still had great potential power in the army, agreed on a detailed plan of action.

The ambiguous shed of the partition opened a door with a squeak at this moment, and two people came out one after the other, one in front of him was around fifty, with a national face, thick eyebrows and a wide mouth, and a few lines on the lips were like knife carvings, which seemed not to be angry and self-imposing, and it was obviously a figure who had been in the top position for a long time.

The one in the back is older, in a plain robe and cloth, with a sworn face, three locks of gray beard, a straight face, and warm eyes. Only those who know his identity know that people can't be good-looking, and if anyone judges people by their appearance, and treats this old man as a square gentleman, he will be sold by him and he will have to help him count the silver quite happily. It is the evergreen tree of officialdom that has stood tall in the five dynasties, the immortal pine in the political arena, and the old man Luo Gongming Luo.

i, Luo Lao, your son, wouldn't it be good for you to be in charge, why bother with someone to let him come to me. Cao Moucai was pinching a cold sweat, if your son insisted on not allowing it, he couldn't say it, so he had to detain him first, and a fight, wouldn't it hurt the flowers and plants in my shed. ”

The plan has been sold, Cao Bin is much more relaxed, and when he sees them come out, he jokingly laughs at Luo Gongming. The two of them have one article and one martial arts, Cao Bin and this old slippery head didn't have much intersection, but now they are going to big things together, and Luo Gongming is still the leader, and the relationship between the two people quickly warmed up and became a pair of close friends.

Luo Gongming twisted his beard and smiled slightly, and said: "My son, who likes to drill the horns of the bull, is a father's bitter heart, and he is not as good as General Cao Xiaoqing." The three old men laughed in unison.

The situation in this world is not easy to really be the master, it is really out of control, and Luo Ke has a fateful friendship with Yang Hao, and his cousin is Yang Hao's princess, once he achieves a great cause in the future, the queen of the main palace will not be able to run, and he loves Ding Yuluo deeply, once he runs to the past, there will be no barrier between each other, and he will be able to hug the beauty.

It was under such circumstances that when Luo Kedi considered how to choose, the only criterion was whether it was beneficial to the Song Dynasty and the people of the world, and he never thought about how beneficial his personal future would be to once he echoed Cao Bin and abolished the establishment together.

Such a square son, if Luo Gongming, as a father, wants him to consider from the perspective of family and personal future, maybe it will be a bad thing? Only by letting Cao Bin, an outsider, use the righteous reasons of his family and country to persuade him, and seeing that Cao Guohua, who has been conscientiously supporting the Great Song Dynasty to this day, also has the intention to abolish the establishment, he can turn around this bend in his heart very smoothly, and this father can be regarded as well-intentioned.

However, the hearts of parents all over the world are the same, just like Zhao Guangyi yīn is sinister and ruthless, although he feels that his son is too upright and stupid, he actually likes this son very much, Lao Luo has been smooth and cunning all his life, although his son's xìng style is not like him, he is also happy for his son.

You don't want to be a righteous man, but who doesn't want your son to be an upright man with high conduct?

The world was in a panic, and Guanzhong issued another message to inform the world, but this time it was drafted and released in the name of King Qi, Zhao Pu and Lu Duoxun, the two former prime ministers of the Great Song Dynasty.

Due to the invasion of the enemy in the north, His Royal Highness King Qi is afraid that the people of the world will suffer, and he is willing to put aside his family affairs and defend the country first. It was publicly announced that the Northern Dynasty would not retreat and that King Qi would not leave the Huang Pass, so that the more than 100,000 forbidden troops outside the Chen Binghuang Pass could be drawn out to participate in the battle to expel the foreign enemy. This is not an empty word, who dares to break the promise of the text that informs the world? The Great Song Dynasty is now withdrawing not a single soldier outside the scum pass, and there is no need to worry that there will be a single soldier in the pass.

With this move alone, the prestige of King Qi was as high as that of the middle of the sky, and no one could match it again. Originally, because of the olive text of the Seven Deadly Sins, many officials and ordinary people had already turned their hearts to the king, and after a series of defeats in wars, Zhao Pu and Lu Duoxun, two prestigious prime ministers, openly defected, and many local officials have begun to look at Guanzhong and secretly send Qiu Bo. As soon as this article comes out, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is inevitable to change the sky.

Tokyo Bianliang West City, Anzhou Lane, Tang Mansion.

The three brothers of the Tang family sat together, full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, but the three of them had no food at all, and they just drank wine for a long time, but they did not move a spoon.

i, this method, let's vote wrong*......",

Tang Ying tilted his neck, the glass was dry, and the impeachment was arrogant, but his face was sad, like drinking horse urine.

Tang Yong snorted and did not speak.

"It's not too bad." Tang Wei suddenly smiled: "Seven heirs of the Tang Seven Sects and five surnames, the most powerful ones are the Cui Zheng family, we and the Li family are in the third or fourth, the Lu family is dead, and the other surnames are gradually declining, but what about now?" The Cui family's nest in Qingzhou let the Zheng family end it, and the foundation of the Zheng family let the Cui family copy it............

Tang Yong said sullenly: "That's what I said, but the Zheng family has now climbed to the Northern Dynasty, it is said that the person who climbed up is a Han army general, and there is a Khitan prince behind him. As for the Cui family, the hometown of Qingzhou was copied, but it took root in the Xixia family, as long as half of the country was divided into the Western Xia, the Zheng family could make a comeback, and the glory was only prosperous compared to the beginning. But this one we can protect, hey! Hey! This emperor used to look at him as a person, why is it more and more awkward the more he looks at it now. ”

Tang San'er said with a smile: "A good person may not be able to be a good emperor, we went to Zhao Guangyi at the beginning, who knew that he would die." However, you don't have to be so sad, we saw the wrong person, but our sister is discerning. ”

Tang San'er slapped his thigh, his long hair fluttering, and he was proud: "Cough, it's a shame that we left a line in our work at the beginning, how do we know that a Luzhou prefect who doesn't lay eggs and a fire dean who is precarious can actually have such a great blessing?" It's a shame that our sister-in-law ran away from home and left home, if she really marries Zhao Guangyi, our Tang family will be completely finished. Now, hehe, our sister is the princess of Xixia, with this relationship, the Tang family will not come to the point of exhaustion. ”

The eldest brother Tang Ying said without jīng: "That being said, but the little sister can protect our family at most, how much benefit can it give us?" It's really giving, do you have the face to ask for it? In the past few years, our Tang family has invested more than half of the family property in the Great Song Dynasty, and has built countless ships, but the capital has not been recovered, and it has declined, which is certain. ”

i, not necessarily. ”

Tang San'er smiled slightly and said, "It's still too late to take refuge in my brother-in-law now." ”

Tang Ying was surprised: "Vote? What do you take to vote? When the family didn't succeed at the beginning, the Cui family made a bloody investment, and now of course it has paid off. Now that Yang Hao is about to win the world, you are a businessman, what help can you give others? Xuefeng can only send charcoal, the icing on the cake, who remembers you, you don't have to be looked down upon, is it possible that you will send another girl to him to be the princess? You've got to have wow, too. ”

Tang San'er glanced at him, "Snorted: "Relying on women to invite pets and solid pets, how much scenery can you get?" Even if we still have a girl, we can't use such a stupid method. Right now, if we want to vote for our brother-in-law, we have to get some meeting gifts, and we have to get a meeting gift, and we don't have this meeting gift. ”

Tang Ying and Tang Yong hurriedly leaned forward: "Third child, I know you have a lot of ideas, tell me quickly, what else do we have to do with the effect." ”

Tang San'er said confidently: i, Western Xia soldiers and horses, mainly cavalry. If you go out of the Huang Pass, wave the east, you can come overnight, but in the past hundred years, all industries in Guanzhong have withered, and the capacity of plugging heavy transportation is far from comparable to that of the Sui and Tang dynasties, if someone can provide a large number of ships? ”

Tang Ying and Tang Yong's eyes were shining, and Tang San'er said again: "No matter who sits in the world, the rich land in Jiangnan is the top priority, such a place is inseparable from the water division, and the Western Xia army is the only lack of water in the system, once he really becomes the lord of the world, he wants to control Jiangnan, he must build a water division, so there are few people who are good at manufacturing warships suitable for various waters of rivers, lakes and seas?" ”

Tang Ying and Tang Yong snorted, their excited faces turned a little red, and Tang San said again: i, Zhao Guangyi's Northern Expedition, 300,000 foot soldiers drove straight in, people pulled cattle and dragged them, and the grain and grass naturally kept up, but our brother-in-law has a lot of cavalry in his hands, once he sits in the world, he will definitely face the Northern Dynasty, and at that time, the iron cavalry will go north, a thousand miles, and the grain transporters will not be able to catch up if they are tired to death, and one person will carry so much food, how to fight? Either the cavalry dismounted and accompanied the foot soldiers slowly, or they fed the war with war, relying entirely on the capture of supplies from the enemy country.

35,000 people, 180,000 people, can barely be supplied, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, people eat horses and feed, which big city in Liao has as much grain and grass for them to consume? Besides, how can you not use the Song State jīng Rui Forbidden Army, think about it at that time, our brother-in-law must be a foot soldier with one hand and a cavalry with the other, you run fast, I have the Western Xia cavalry that is not inferior to the Khitan in terms of martial arts and bravery, and if you want to fight head-on, I have the Great Song Forbidden Army that is unparalleled in the world, so that there are countless people and horses, and we must not only rely on captive from the Northern Dynasty to meet the needs of the three armies, if there are a large number of ships along the river to transport grain, grass, arrows, and siege equipment, so what? ”

Tang Ying and Tang Yong glanced at each other, and the depression in their eyes was swept away.

Tang San smiled slightly: "Big brother, no matter how chaotic the world is, let's not mess up, you continue to supervise the shipbuilding, the battleship is enough, start now, go all out to build the boat, the salary will be paid, with the heart of the shipwright."

He pondered for a while, and said: "Don't build too big boats, the carrying capacity of more than 2,000 stone has stopped, the waterway from Guanzhong to Bianliang has been blocked for many years, the cleaning is insufficient, and there are many water shoals, if you want to cut the north, the rivers in the north are not well dredged, and the river is also narrow and shallow, so build more small boats, lake boats, saury boats, and sewing boats, these boats are slender and shallow, and they will definitely come in handy." ”

"Okay, I know." Tang Ying nodded again and again.

Tang San'er said to Tang Yong again: "Second brother, you personally preside, immediately send people to various places, and then notify all the businesses in our family, and go all out to buy food." ”

Tang Yong was stunned: "Grain? At this time, the autumn harvest has already passed, and now the grain is harvested, and the price will inevitably be high, let's ............

Tang Ying already understood what Tang Wei meant, and immediately interrupted his words, and said with a smile: "Second brother, don't ask so much, ~10~1010~s~$~}~.~n~Е~t~} is the fastest hand update!" The third child told you to collect grain for your own reason, you just have to collect it, collect as much as you can, don't be stingy with money, even if you are bankrupt, you must work hard to collect it. The people take food as the sky, and this grain is the foundation of stabilizing the world, and it is also the hope for our Tang family to stand up. Besides, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, even if our brother-in-law becomes the emperor, he can't let the soldiers drink the northwest wind to fight. ”

Tang San'er is our brother-in-law, and now Boss Tang has also learned.

Tang Yong still didn't react a little, but he also nodded and said, "Cheng, I'll do it immediately." That...... Third, you sent errands to both the eldest brother and me, what are you going to do? ”

"Help"

Tang San'er shook his long hair and said faintly: "I naturally want to go to Chang'an, now on Chang'an Road, I'm afraid there will be a lot of pedestrians, it's too late, even if they are our brother-in-law, I'm afraid I won't be able to grab the slot......"
