Volume 2 Bianliang Mistake Chapter 118 Autumn "Tide" Secret Life (6)

Two or three days after Zhun Xiao Yan could actually inspect the funds and financial affairs of the two forbidden troops stationed on the two roads at the right time. The parties in the DPRK and China finally returned the Western Army to the town, and the Shenwu Changsheng Army and the Huanqing Army went out of the town of Hedong and Hebei Yandi, and came up with a specific arrangement. Needless to say, Wu Min stood on the last shift, and those who could cooperate tried their best to cooperate. Cai Jing's Dongfu has not made any difficulties. Liang Shicheng tried his best to match behind the scenes, and at the moment when the party struggle was almost white-hot, it was already a rare effective and quick decision.

This time, the matter is serious, and the personnel arrangements involved are even more important. It was a large-scale transfer of about 100,000 troops and horses of the three armies, and the final decision was still made in front of Zhao Jiyu.

On this day of September 30 in the fifth year of Xuanhe, early in the morning, a group of people gathered in the Yanfu Hall in the forbidden middle and waited to discuss the matter with the official family. Zhao Ji was also very concerned about this matter, and he had already gotten up early in the morning, waiting for the ministers to be summoned in. Under the leadership of the internal envoy, headed by Cai Jing, Bai Shizhong, the governor of the political affairs, Gao Dai, the third envoy, and Wu Min, the deputy privy envoy, were secondary. Liang Shicheng was also on duty in the forbidden period, and at this time, he was by Zhao Ji's side with the "waiter". Originally, the two "gates" were stationed in the forbidden army to go out to open the town, and Gao Yu, the head of the three yas, should also have attended the meeting, but he was really sick and dying, so naturally he couldn't go sideways. However, there are several rulers, and Liang Shicheng, who has great influence in the court, is also there, and the big and small matters in the court are enough to be decided in one word. One less high-ranking person is not bad.

Several consuls and a three-secretary envoy saluted as if they were courteous, and Zhao Ji also waived all of them, and even gave them seats and drinks. After a few people took office, after all, the Privy Council was in charge of the affairs of the military in the world. Even if Wu Min is about to go out, this time is still his first and last. The first to stand up and speak: "The sage is in person, about the return of the Western Army to the town, the Shenwu Changsheng Army out of the town of Hedong, and the Huanqing Army out of the town of Yandi Hebei." The West Mansion and the East Mansion have been almost calculated............ The three armies of Jingyuan, Qinfeng, and Xihe of the Western Army, totaling more than 84,500 personnel, 13,000 mules and horses, together with a qiē military equipment. The second assembly was at the Daimyo Mansion to board the boat, land and water, and return to Shaanxi Zhulu. Supplies along the way have been prepared. The Western Army's military salaries are well rewarded, and they can also be part of themselves. A matter of response, because the road is smooth, the back and forth are the heart of the Great Song Dynasty, Shaanxi Zhulu has already been arranged, when there is nothing troublesome. ”

Everyone present knew about the return of the Western Army to the town, and there was nothing to worry about. The Western Army thought about it very much, but what they were afraid of was that the court would not let them go back. The imperial court has been stationed outside for a long time, and it is also worried. Now there is no Tong Guan pressing them on their heads, and after being out for a long time, maybe there is a real possibility of a mutiny. Now the two hit it off. No matter how much preparation work the Western Army will do, it will not be difficult to extort local supplies along the way. will only rush back to Shaanxi Zhulu. In Zhulu, Shaanxi, the place where the army is stationed, the side wall of the fortress and the facilities are all ready-made. You don't need to prepare anything. The 150,000 Western Army went on the expedition, together with the tens of thousands of soldiers recruited, and finally less than 90,000 returned to Zhulu in Shaanxi, which was finally a temporary but troublesome problem. It is expected that the Western Army, which has suffered a lot of vitality, will also be able to reassure the imperial court for a few years. Let's slowly look for a commander who can command the entire Western Army.

And that old seed can't afford to be seriously ill now. Back in Shaanxi, it can almost be regarded as the head of the fox's death. Without the old species, the remaining three armies of the Western Army may no longer have the cohesion they had before. It was easier for the imperial court to reach in. Generally speaking, the western army is no longer what the people of the DPRK and China are most worried about now.

The Western Army returned to the town like this, and everyone did not raise any different opinions. Zhao Ji had a relaxed smile on his face. He looked around, then nodded and motioned for Wu Min to continue.

Wu Min respectfully and respectfully, and continued to explain the agreed arrangements to the next sub-division: "............ Huanqingjun went out of the town of Hebei Yandi, because Hebei Yandi was too vast, and it was impossible to undertake all the defense of Yandi and Hebei for a while. Although the military town of Hebei collapsed, there were still some foundations for the garrison and the walled fortress. Hebei Zhulu, it is also more convenient to support the supply of the Huanqing Army. When inviting Yi Huanqing's army to be called the Yongning Army, stationed in Xiongzhou. It is the forbidden army stationed in Hebei. Wang Yuyao led Yanshan Road to pacify the throne, although he attacked Baigou Henan, but he could recruit Yandi Haoqiang in this name, and recruit Hebei Yongzhuang, hoping to achieve a large army within a few years, thinking that the northern part of the Great Song Dynasty was facing the ............"

Although the two armies were urgently sent out, after the Western Army left, Hebei's defense was empty. In addition to the partisan struggle between the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee, they cannot but consider this. In order for the weaker Huanqing Army to play a certain role as a barrier, it can be regarded as a "spending" of thought. Put the Huanqing army in Yanjing with a rod, and it is not easy to receive help from the rear. Hebei is empty. Moreover, Yandi has long been sparsely fought, unlike Hebei, which has the defense line that Lanyuan operated before, which can be relied on. Although it has long been abandoned over the years, it is better than nothing.

And there are some things that are not easy to say. The financial revenue of the imperial court is already stretched thin to maintain the current situation. The Huanqing army went out of the town to shield the entire north. The center doesn't have much money. Only rely on the income of Hebei Zhulu to transfer on the spot. Hebei Zhulu has also been damaged due to the war against Yan, and its income has also dropped sharply. If you take on the responsibility of transferring all the way to Yanjing, the envoys of Hebei Zhulu can only pick a pick. Only in this way can we barely maintain a situation. Let's see if we can spare some resources to invest in the newly established Hebei military town of the Huanqing Army in the future———— we will have to call the Huanqing Army the Yongning Army in the future. This change of military name means that this military horse is completely separated from the Western Army system, and it can be regarded as one of the achievements of the imperial court to divide the Western Army.

As for the fact that the imperial court will inevitably lose the part of the Hebei Zhulu to allocate the revenue to the Yongning army on the spot, then we will talk about it at that time. Anyway, Hebei Zhulu was not the main source of income for the imperial court. After the war, it was ruined, and its income was greatly reduced. Without this part, life will still have to go on. First of all, the "meat" is to mend the sores.

Zhao Ji nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Yu led Yanshan Road to pacify the position, which should be acceptable." However, the Yanshan Road guards should also be arranged quickly. What I have heard, after the Yan fell, these more than ten military states were recovered. The guards are only two or three out of ten, and the subordinate officials are even more incomplete. If there is no local defense and vassals to cooperate, it will not be possible to have the Yongning Army alone. After all, it is already the land of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is too degrading to have no servants for a long time. This matter should be arranged by the East Mansion as soon as possible and reported to me."

Cai Jing stood up and saluted, indicating that he received the order. But he didn't say much. Several other people also had ambitions at this time, pretending to be deaf and dumb. The swallow land was sparsely beaten, and there were no strong soldiers to suppress it. Facing the ferocious "female" real tartar. The officials on Yanshan Road have almost become the officials who "shoot". As long as you are willing to go, I will send you wherever you are. The official character is not enough, even if it is the right to send it. Rao is like this, and few people are willing to go to Yandi to serve as officials. When the official family says so, everyone listens to it. Although everyone is fierce in infighting, they are all interested in "messing" the official family here. Besides, this official's "sex" is light, and when he turned his head, he didn't know if he remembered this incident.

Zhao Ji was still there to groan, showing that he, the king, was worried about state affairs and had to take care of it everywhere: "The military town of Hebei has long been decadent and deserted, and the Yongning army has re-established its camp. It's a lot of money. Hebei Zhulu can only bear the daily supply in the future, and at the beginning of the opening of the military town, the three divisions have also come up with a financial plan to support. Zhuqing, how much can be vacated now to open the town with the Yongning army? ”

This sentence made everyone speechless, how many families does the court have now. As an official, how can you not know. Annual income, daily expenses are not enough. Although the Yongning army was established in Hebei, the military town was rebuilt. However, the expenses of the forbidden army stationed on the Hebei Zhulu Road, which basically only existed on the roster, could not be saved. No one would be stupid enough to clean up this, and then free up funds to divert it to the Yongning Army. Didn't your official family use Xiao Yan Xiao someone to do this, let Xiao Yan touch this hornet's nest.

But when it comes to the head, you always have to deal with it. Cai Jing looked at the third envoy Gao Dai lightly, Gao Dai coughed, got up and saluted back: "It's really difficult to plan for funds and finances now." I need money, but the source is cut off. The summer tax has not yet been collected, and it has been fully paid out in advance, and the deficiencies are all supported by the new "handover" banknotes this year. This year's new "handover" banknotes have reached three folds, and they are still rejected everywhere. If the imperial court's financial affairs want to be a little richer, they can only wait for Jiangnan and other places to slowly recover their vitality. Can you breathe a sigh of relief when you see it............ Yongning Army's additional expenditure is really unaffordable. The issuance of "handed" banknotes has been exhausted, and it must not be increased this year. Hebei Zhulu is no better than other heartlands, and so many "handed" banknotes are sent out to pay for the re-establishment of the battalion, and the soldiers are used to buy and sell. There should be a big trouble when there is a "commotion" in the border area............ Recently, I heard that His Majesty Xià Inner Treasury, because Xiao Xianmo should serve, there must be a sum of money, and the minister dared to ask the sage to send 500,000 yuan to the Inner Treasury to pay for all kinds of matters related to the promotion of the Yongning Army. As long as the Yongning army enters Zhenxiongzhou, it will always be easy to talk later. Naturally, the food and salary are the three divisions and the privy, and other matters are supported by Hebei Zhulu. ”

Zhao Ji frowned suddenly, and Gao Yi understood it. The three divisions don't want money now, and the summer tax is all "spent" after the confiscation is completed. If your emperor is as poor as Sansi, then there is nothing to say. Xiao Yan has been offering a lot recently, so let's take 500,000 yuan to deal with it first. As long as it can support the Yongning army to enter Zhenxiongzhou, the future supply is a matter of Hebei Zhulu. Look at how Hebei Zhulu and Wang Yu themselves can deal with it. It is not easy for the three divisions to manage the food and salary of the Yongning Army now, and if they have any moves in Hebei in the future, they will find their own way.

His own family background is clear, and Zhao Ji also knows that Gao Yi is telling the truth. Now the finances of the imperial court are almost desperate. After the "chaos" in the south of the Yangtze River, it has not been calmed down, and the Zhulu in Hebei has experienced another war. The source of income has been greatly reduced, but there is only more place to "spend" money. The country's finances are insanely poor. Xiao Yan is also precisely because of this situation (the latest chapter of Wu Dong Qiankun http://wWw.23hH.coM

wWw.23hH.coM), to gain a foothold. Zhao Ji had to be reused. He was even ready to use Xiao Yan to touch the big black hole where the forbidden army accounted for more than half of the imperial court's expenses every year.

The three divisions really couldn't come up with the money, so the idea hit the treasury of the inner provinces that only had a little bit of input. It's just that this is a big deal, and I can't shirk it. He frowned for a long time before he reluctantly said, "Well, the treasury of the provinces within me is also in trouble." Over the years, it has been supported by the state for an endless stream, and it has already bottomed out............ It is important for the Yongning Army to open the town of Hebei, so how can it move 500,000 yuan............ Liang Shicheng, you mention this matter and "hand" this financial plan to the cardinal government. The cardinal government was reissued and used by the Yongning army. ”

At this moment, Zhao Ji's heart ached, and he couldn't help but read Xiao Yan's good. If it weren't for Xiao Yan making money, the two armies discussed by your group would not have been able to dig up Xiao Yan's corners, but Xiao Yan had no complaints, and he still had a steady stream of supplies to his own inner treasury. Thinking about it this way, this Xiao Yan is loyal to the courtiers, once the Shenwu Changsheng army goes out, he should be honored and favored, and he should be at ease with the heart of this courtier.

Zhao Ji relieved his mouth, and the ministers hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty Shengming Yongning Army must also thank Heaven for the northern part of the Great Song Dynasty" Liang Shicheng even bowed down to receive the order, saying that he would do a good job in this matter. Never let the money of the saint's treasury be wasted.

Zhao Ji "spent" his own money, and he was lazy in his heart, and he was not happy about this empty sycophant, but waved his hand.

After the ministers praised the saints, Wu Min had a plastic surgery and continued to report: "............ Then there is the Shenwu Changsheng Army to open the town of Hedong, and the Shenwu Changsheng Army is stationed in Daizhou, covering the Ninghua Army to the front line of Zhending Mansion. It's easier not to have a military trumpet. Recruit local warriors on the spot to strengthen the army. In the future, it can become a strong army. The commander of the Shenwu Changsheng Army is Han Shizhong and the governor of Daizhou, and the deputy commander is Yue Fei and the commander of the Ninghua Army. It was restrained by the pacification envoy of Hedong Road. At the same time as the Yongning army, he went out of the town, according to the shape of the place, and guarded the east of the river. The two armies went out for the national screen domain, and the northern frontier of the Great Song Dynasty should have no deep worries."

The arrangement of the Shenwu Victorious Army is not completely nonsense. The people in the DPRK and China also only want to sever the ties of the Shenwu Victorious Army, and by the way, weaken it somewhat. The important land east of the river does need military horses to sit in the town. To the west of Hedong Road, such as Juzhou, Baodejun. By this time, although the administrative division was still Hedong Road, the military horses had long been integrated with the Western Army. It was responsible for the defense of Western Xia. From the Ninghua Army to the east, it undertook the defense of the former Liaoyun states. The Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army fills this void. And because the Huanqing Army was weak, the defense area of the Shenwu Changsheng Army also extended to the Zhending Mansion on Hebei West Road to cover such an important place. In this way, the Shenwu Changsheng Army and the Yongning Army are united in one place, which can be regarded as a complete line of defense.

Normally, just now Zhao Ji asked about the financial plan of the Yongning Army to open the town, and at this time, the third division Gao Dai should step forward and also report back on how to arrange the financial plan for the opening of the town of the Shenwu Changsheng Army. Now the clogs don't move. Zhao Ji sat on the head and did not ask.

Although there are few who can give the Yongning army now, the general of the Yongning army, Wang Yuling, appeases and makes him responsible, and the imperial court must also make it clear that Hebei Zhulu must fully cooperate with him. A considerable part of the local revenue is called by the king. Whoever doesn't cooperate, Wang Yu will write to the court, and he will also give him an explanation. In addition to not being able to give him a large sum of money and goods for a while, the imperial court gave enough support to the Yongning Army.

However, the two generals of the Shenwu Changsheng Army are far from the status of the king, and they must be controlled by the pacification envoys of Hedong Road. Naturally, the resources available locally are even more limited. It is impossible to let the center of the court fill this hole. No one in the court wanted to fill it in. On the contrary, he wanted to use this financial plan to completely snatch the Shenwu Changsheng Army from Xiao Yan's hands, and turned it into an ordinary garrison forbidden army in the Great Song Dynasty. In this way, there is nothing to be afraid of in the court. As for what Cheng Dù will be weakened by the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, is it a pity that such a "fine" and strong army will end up in the ordinary, but who cares about him. As long as the upper edge of the map is empty and plugged, everyone is already very diligent in state affairs and has been arranged carefully.

This is something that the monarchs and ministers all know well. Zhao Ji didn't bother with this boring. Save yourself from opening your mouth and have to pay for it, which is not easy to come by. The Son of Heaven, who has been poor for a long time, also said that it is difficult to give up good money............

In the Yanfu Palace, there was a strange silence at this moment. After a long time, Zhao Ji looked at Wu Min and said with a gentle smile: "Wu Qing, in the past two years, as a ruling party, you have been loyal and diligent in state affairs and in charge of Xifu. Helped me a lot............ According to my heart. I still want to keep you in Xifu and balance the affairs of the Great Song Dynasty. However, there are people everywhere, and capable ministers like Wu Qing really hate less. The post of pacification envoy of Hedong Road, except for Qing, who else can be deserved? Qing went out for a few years, settled the Hedong Road for me, and then returned to the court, when the time came, the Xifu was making the throne, it was none other than Qing............ Wu Qing, are you willing to worry about the matter of Hedong Road for me? ”

Wu Min's expression was as if he was solemnly saluting: "The saint is looking down, how dare the minister be?" For the king's share of worries, the courtier's duty is also. I wish that within a few years, the affairs of Hedong will no longer be worried about the saints."

Zhao Ji suddenly looked overjoyed, praised again and again, and immediately added grace: "Wu Min will sentence Taiyuan Mansion and lead the east road to appease the envoy." The official was transferred to the bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, and the son of Zengyin was Chengfenglang. The edict will be issued in the near future, and the task of Qingzhuan Hedong Road will be

Wu Min saluted again and thanked Tian's grace. The rest of the people looked at each other and knew that this was the precursor to the change in the pattern of the DPRK and China after the war against Yan. From this point on, we don't know how many changes the old pattern has made, how much benefit everyone can gain in the process, or how much power will be lost

Liang Shicheng, who was standing next to Zhao Ji, had the most ugly face, and when Wu Min went out, he hit Liang Shicheng's face. Who didn't know that he was secretly connected to the same privy deputy envoy to deal with a Nanlai son Xiao Yan. In the end, the Privy Counsellor went out, but Xiao Yan entered the Privy Council proudly. Even with him, Liang Shicheng's reputation declined. Now I have to connect with the old party Qingliushi doctors, so I can barely stabilize my position. Seeing that the situation is about to change, it is difficult for him to cover the sky with one hand, and everyone has to admit that he is snorting. The East Mansion has been restored to control Cai Jing, and the West Mansion has now also gone to Wu Min. Can I only mention some palace views? Without this favor, this palace view itself doesn't know how long it can be mentioned

After Wu Min danced and thanked him, Cai Jingcai got up slowly, saluted Zhao Ji and said, "Wu Longtu Town Hedong, the saint uses people." Everything in Hedong should be worry-free. It's just that the West Mansion balances the affairs of the whole country. The privy envoy was already in vain, after Wu Longtu went out. It is even more empty, and it should be arranged to win people early. Only then can the situation of the DPRK not be "chaotic" and all parties can be harmonious. ”

Liang Shicheng immediately became a "spirit" spirit, and Cai Jing was surprisingly cooperative in discussing the matter of the Shenwu Changsheng Army and the Yongning Army going out this time. There was no objection to all personnel arrangements. He was in charge of the finances, because he really couldn't get the money, and he didn't mean to cause any trouble. Cai Jing is so honest, but it makes people feel uneasy. It is clear that what everyone wants to deal with is Xiao Yan, and once Xiao Yan falls, it will not be difficult to implicate Cai Jing, who is trying to protect Xiao Yan. With Cai Jing's old "traitor", how can you not see this? He just didn't give birth to anything to obstruct him, but now it seems that he is staring at the position of Xifu. If you want to hold the East and West Mansion in your hand, you must put forward the characters in his pocket at this time, but you can't let this old fox succeed

Looking around, in the Yanfu Palace, Gao Dai is Cai Jing's person. Bai Shizhong is famous for his submissiveness, and no one can be offended. This time, in the name of participating in the governor's affairs, he entered the forbidden middle council, and except for the praise of the saint, the others did not say a word at all. Wu Min has already been approved to go out, and he said that he would not 'mix' water again at this time. At this moment, only he is shirtless.

When Liang Shicheng was about to speak, he saw Zhao Ji smile and speak: "Cai Laoqing's family is worried about state affairs, and they are loyal and diligent............ However, now the rivers and seas are clear, and there are no soldiers. The western army returned to the town, and after the two armies went out, there was nothing important for a while. The forbidden army of the capital "gate" must be reorganized, and the one who bears this heavy responsibility, in addition to the three ya, is the most important thing for the cardinal. Those who can do whatever they can do can only be those who have virtue and talent, and I have to slowly investigate them in detail............ Cai Laoqing's family is also right, the cardinal government naturally cannot be left unoccupied for a long time, and I will make a decision as soon as possible. That's it for now."

Zhao Ji blocked Cai Jing back in one bite, and Liang Shicheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Keep an eye on Cai Jing to see what else he will say. Cai Jing was silent, and saluted to express his acceptance. Slowly, he stepped back again.

This old fox, is it really too old? Giving up so easily? Just want to keep the wealth and honor before you die? Liang Shicheng was puzzled, and suddenly thought of Zhao Ji's possible intentions. At least in the Privy Council, at this time, no one can ride on the head of Xiao Yan, the deputy capital of the Privy Council, and what he wants to do, at least in the Privy Council, there will be no one to hinder him. Zhao Ji decided to act with Xiao Yan's convenience............ What is this convenience, is not to put the name of his dispatch into practice, so that he can really practice this bottomless "hole" that has swallowed up a large amount of financial resources of the Great Song Dynasty

This possibility was expected by Liang Shicheng and the Qingliu family of the old party. There is no other reason, Zhao Ji needs money too much. The forbidden army must also be retrained. Previously, let Xiao Yan test the water first, and it became the best, and if he didn't sacrifice a Xiao Yan, he would not shake the country's foundation. This is also what Liang Shicheng and they welcome. Now it seems that it is a foregone conclusion. Today, a qiē is in the material, and the shun lì is incomparable. Even Cai Jingjing did not give birth to anything. But I don't know why, Liang Shicheng always felt a gratuitous void. Everyone knows that this training of the forbidden army's funds and financial plans is a trap. Why is Xiao Yan so unhesitating and ready to jump down? Is he really that stupid, or does he have another embrace?

In the blink of an eye, Liang Shicheng had already gathered his mind. The Great Song Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, and this redundant army has some great wisdom, and the famous ministers with great ability have never been able to touch the slightest. Xiao Yan is not an immortal, how can he have the ability to return to heaven? Everyone just sit quietly and wait, even if Xiao Yan doesn't make any trouble, everyone will give him trouble, just on this one, once and for all, this Nan Laizi, who can't look at the eye, will be completely trampled under his feet

Sure enough, as Liang Shicheng expected, at this time, Zhao Ji smiled hesitantly, with a bit of tentative flavor in his semantics, looked around at the ministers, and slowly spoke: "............ The matter of the country's financial plans is now in extreme embarrassment. When the two armies went out, the center couldn't come up with any money. Even my inner library has almost bottomed out............ The country has everything to do, and it can't be done without money. If it goes on like this, the slightest change will not be able to cope with it............ This is the most important thing now, I worry day and night, all because of this, tossing and turning, and it is difficult to sleep. The situation in front of me is really shocking."

The country's financial plan is the matter of the three envoys, and when Gao Dai heard the voice, he immediately bowed down and confessed his guilt: "The minister has a negative effect, and his sin is also deep." The ministers asked themselves to avoid the throne and go out, and asked the saint to choose a capable minister, fill the position of the minister, and share the worries of the saint."

Zhao Ji let out a long sigh, let Gao Qing get up, and said with a heavy look: "How can you blame Gao Qing for this?" Gao Qing has done his best to solve my worries. In fact, in the past few years, things have been going on one after another, and there has been no time to break it. Jiangnan was originally a place of wealth, and the "chaos" of the Fang Lai Vegetable Devil has not yet recovered its vitality. The decline of the Liao State and the Northern Expedition to Pingyan are the wishes of the founding ancestors, although they are being done. However, after a war, the soldiers were in trouble, and the roads in Hebei were broken. Incomes have plummeted, and expenses have increased day by day. How can there be no reason for embarrassment? Since it is embarrassing, it is necessary to deal with it............ In this Northern Expedition, I and the ministers have seen that now the forbidden army is stationed in the "Gate", and it is really unbearable to select 20,000 "elite" elites to accompany the Northern Expedition, but without a battle, without a single target. In Hejian Mansion, the Liao soldiers arrived in Xiongzhou, and their own family was defeated. This is still the chosen "elite", and what about the others that have not been chosen? Do you still expect them to serve me? The country has raised it for more than 100 years, but it is so useless, not to mention that the forbidden army stationed in the "gate" is claimed to be more than 600,000, the real number, is there half? This half, has it been reorganized? Can you go into battle? The country has a lot of wealth to throw in this useless place, how can it be obtained in the long run? This ban on military affairs is a must-have."

Everyone present stood up again and expressed their approval. But they have their own thoughts. This redundant and redundant matter of the forbidden army has been shouted for more than 100 years. No matter which day it is changed, you have to take it out and say it a few times, and you have to say that you must practice. If you lose a little, you will immediately increase more. No one was able to cook it. Everyone sees this drawback, but no one can do it. And if possible, try to walk around it. Moreover, the forbidden army has been rotten like this all these years, and your responsibility as an official is not shallow. It turned out that the Sanya led the army, and it was still a veteran general who had been in the army for a long time. No matter how bad the forbidden army is, it can still make up tens of thousands of soldiers and soldiers. Since the official appointment, he has neither the ability nor the experience. I only know that after the high level of the official family. The forbidden army of the capital "gate" has degenerated completely out of control.

The official family is now poor and crazy, and it has gained great profits for Xiao. I'm ready to make up my mind to touch this. Your official family is light, and Xiao is used to not playing cards according to the rules. You have to do this, just do it. My generation agrees, and I just look from the sidelines. I can't say that I can take the opportunity to start and reap greater benefits.

The ministers knew Zhao Ji's intentions, but they didn't announce it. After praising the saints, he waited for Zhao Ji to say it himself. Sure enough, Zhao Ji spread out his own thoughts: "............ Now the deputy of the Privy Council is Cheng Xiao Yan and is familiar with military affairs. However, what is even more rare seems to be "refined" in financial planning. What I mean is to ask him to take a good look at the funds and financial affairs of the forbidden army stationed in the capital "gate", and see how much there is in the meantime. Check and understand, and then remove. The financial affairs of the imperial court can also be relieved. Then the important ministers will lead the training of the forbidden military, and the useful pay will be used to train the usable soldiers. If the forbidden army of the capital "gate" is strong, the strong and weak branches can be restored. What are the things in the world? ”

At this point, Zhao Ji can be regarded as saying that he wants to use Xiao Yan a lot, and first start with the financial affairs of the forbidden army. I was still quite apprehensive in my heart, for fear that the ministers would oppose it, saying that Xiao Yan was not qualified enough, and he was fortunate to advance. There is no way to do such an important military matter. What Zhao Ji didn't expect was that none of the rulers of the Great Song Dynasty in the Yanfu Palace, along with a hidden minister, were silent. After reviewing each other, they all saluted, and Cai Jing led the way and said: "A Pingyan war does show that the forbidden army of the 'Gate' is by no means enough to use the meaning of the saint. It can be said that Shengming is also ............ Xiao Yan came from the south, although he was worried about lack of prestige. However, he is still brave enough to do things, and he seems to be good at financial planning. Let him try it first, it's nothing. If there is any accident, the saint can correct it at any time............ The old minister had no objection to this matter. ”

Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jing, and then turned his head to look at Liang Shicheng. Giving Xiao Yan a respectful dispatch is enough to make the Liang master face. Zhao Ji didn't want to go too far for a while, but he wanted to see that Liang Shicheng had such a lot of power over Xiao Yan, and he didn't have any resentment. But he didn't expect Liang Shicheng to be not the slightest dissatisfied, and saluted beside him: "The saint has taken a plan, and he must be extremely 'fine'." My generation only hates Kuang Shi for being powerless, and in addition to being afraid, what other opinions can I have? I just want to be able to pick up the missing and make up for the shortcomings beside the saints, and there is little benefit, which is the use of my generation. The sage wanted to check the expenses and financial affairs of the forbidden army in advance with Xiao Yan, and the minister had nothing to say except for full cooperation. ”

Zhao Ji made up his mind, and realized that he usually ruled by the arch. These courtiers are intrigued, and the situation is very difficult to clean up. In the end, I had to go out on my own and arrange everything one by one. The ministers could only obey Shengming and wait for him to clean up the rivers and mountains. To be this Great Song Dynasty official, his ability and authority are enough, but it is too hard to work hard, and he smiled very confidently at the moment: "Since this is the case, I will invent a decree as soon as possible, and let Xiao Yan set up a temporary office in the cardinal mansion, set up subordinate officials, and receive the seal." The departments of the forbidden army stationed on Gyeonggi Road and Jingnan Road are stationed in the forbidden army, and they must not set up words to obstruct them, and act according to Xiao Yan. If anyone wants to do something, I will find him a place to oversee the liquor tax."

Today's major events have been discussed here, and they have already been said. The "servant" has already written down the will to be issued in a rough stomach. Just wait for the pen to be prepared, Zhao Ji will approve the treasure, and the "handover" of the political hall will be countersigned, and it will be finalized. Zhao Ji is rarely industrious today, and he dares to be tired at this time. Waved his hand to let the ministers retreat and settle. I have to find a quiet place to recuperate. The heartache of taking out 500,000 yuan for nothing has to dissipate to be less distressed.

After Cai Jing and Gao Dai resigned, they withdrew from Yanfu Palace. The inner envoy led the way, and Cai Jing was old and honorable, with shoulders to carry. Gao Dai didn't care about his identity, he followed closely next to Cai Jing, and asked softly with his face up: "Taishi, let them do it like this, watch Xiao jump into this fire pit." His position will inevitably be unsafe, and he will definitely be implicated in the Taishi at that time. What should I do then? ”

Cai Jing's eyes seemed to be closed, and he snorted in a low voice after a while: "Whose fire pit it is, it's still uncertain." It's too early to say that."
