With only three words, Song Jiu couldn't refuse the order.

But he was laughing in his heart, this is called tired, if there is Li Jiqian, you are tired. However, in the past six months, Zhao Heng has really been forced to suffer, disasters, rebellions, and strong enemy invasions have all been put on the table.

So Song Jiu called the officials in Suzhou together.

It's still about the plague.

Tightly, the plague is not very harmful, a few rains fall, disappear automatically, loosen up, the terrible No. 2 disease is infected, and I don't know how many people have died.

Before everyone could react, he rode his horse and galloped north.

Maybe if it's a little delay, hundreds of people will see him off, or even prevent him from going back. But having done so much in Suzhou, it is useless to ask for this false name, and besides, all his official positions have reached the peak, and a false name may not be a good thing for him.

Despite being a loose emperor who came to power.

But instead of going to the capital immediately, he went to Yunzhou to inspect the situation of the embankment, and the infantry army waited for Zhang Jin, and the deputy of the inner chamberlain knew that Yan Chenghan was bringing 30,000 people from various states to Ding Fusai, and the imperial court also did a good job, and transferred a lot of food to relieve the victims. Productivity in ancient times was just that, and it was okay to do this. And because of the low situation and low lying in Yunzhou, the imperial court simply allocated a sum of money to move Yunzhou City to a high place.

But this is not what Song Jiu mainly sees, and then along the embankment of the Yellow River, all the way to Mengzhou, through the boundary of the capital did not enter, and even personally inspected the sand accumulation of each section of the river and the sediment content of the river, and then Sanmenxia, Song Jiu returned to the capital in a simple manner.

I almost got tired.

"Time does not spare people." Back home, at this time, the family also returned to the capital by boat, Song Jiu sighed.

"Then don't be so desperate." Ping said lovingly.

"Just a few years."

There are no big problems with internal governance. After Zhao Heng's reforms, some of the changes he brought have been consolidated. Of course, there is no eternal system. Perhaps in a few decades, new evils will arise again. Just like the reform initiated by the second ancestor, it could not succeed again. However, after the three ancestors ascended the throne, they did not correct the ignorance of the pursuit of economy in time, which brought about the neglect of spiritual civilization, so all kinds of bad phenomena arose. But what does it have to do with the second ancestor?

Therefore, after realizing this truth over the years, he gradually relaxed.

I changed into court clothes and went to Zhongshu.

The personnel of Zhongshu changed again, the prime ministers were Zhang Qixian and Li Xin, and the vice ministers were Wang Huaji and Xiang Minzhong.

Except for Li Xin and Song Jiu, who don't know much about it. The other three can be said to be old friends, or even old subordinates.

The prime minister of Xifu is Wang Xian, in addition, Wang Jiying and Zhou Ying are the envoys of the Xuanhui North and South Courts, and Wang Dan and Qian Ruoshui are also known as the Privy Council envoys. Could it be that the Privy Envoy was gradually replaced by a temporary Privy Councillor, or that military affairs were not important in the eyes of this Song Zhenzong.

Song Jiu handed over.

Zhang Qixian and Li Xin smiled.

Neither of these people had a strong desire for power, so they didn't reject Song Jiu much.

As for Xiang Minzhong and Wang Huaji, the two juniors, they have nothing to say.

But the strange Li Xin opened his mouth first: "Song Gong should be here." ”

"In a hurry, sit down for a few years, and then give office. People are old, and they have been running along the Yellow River for more than ten days. I almost fell down from exhaustion. ”

Wang Huaji smiled on the side: "Song Gong, you still think you are the age when you were at Qigou Pass." ”

In fact, Song Jiu is only in his early fifties, and it is the golden time of his career.

But if you play like you used to, you won't be able to.

"Song Gong is back. Let's go to the government hall together. Zhang Qixian said.

It's a big deal.

After Zhao Heng heard this, he immediately came out of the palace and rushed to the political hall.

Song Jiu Shili. That hidden conversation has long been forgotten, and I am afraid that no one will know about it in the future. Except that Zhao Heng said it with his own big mouth.

Several people sat down.

Actually, there is no prime minister's seat. As long as Song Jiu comes back, no matter who he is, he has to be respected. That's a real old minister of the Three Dynasties. Don't mention political achievements.

Song Jiu said: "Let's talk about Bashu first. After Zhang Yong's governance, the term Bashu side household gradually became history, and the traitor had no people's foundation, so it could not become a general trend. However, this can also be regarded as the fault of the imperial court, at least the fault of improper employment, if the imperial court is economically prosperous and issues an edict to reduce the taxes of the people of Bashu for one year, then it will be easier to pacify the traitors. ”

Here, Song Jiu sighed deeply. Anyway, Fu Zhaoshou is his good friend, and he actually died like this......

But from an official standpoint, the court is inappropriate.

At Qigou Pass, he saw that Fu Zhaoshou had no military talent, so he asked him to flee in advance to report the news. After the battle of Qigou Pass, Fu Zhaoshou also served as a governor for a few years, and his performance in the local area was not good, I don't know what Zhao Heng thought, let him lead the army in Sichuan.

"Song Gong's words made me think that Lei Youzhong sent his nephew Lei Xiao Xianxian to take Wang Jun, and he smiled at Fan Tingzhao and said, this rat has a good ear, although the baby city is self-defending, it can be captured in a few days."

"That's not necessarily, this is a group of crazy people, once you are forced to jump over the wall, it will be very difficult to take it."

"Do you want to send the Betrayal Army?"

"Don't use it, the reason why the thief has not been extinguished so far is because the city wall of Yizhou is tall. The back-to-back army was used in field battles, not in siege cities. If the thieves break through and flee, the backswain army will lack speed. However, His Majesty can issue an edict to let Lei Youzhong prepare some Sichuan cavalry to prevent the traitors from escaping from the city and poisoning more people on the day the city is broken. Danchen thought about a question on the way, why did the officers and soldiers become very bad as soon as they arrived in Bashu? Just like this rebellion, just because Fu Zhaoshou is a little unfair in the configuration of armor, is he going to rebel? ”

If there is a rebellion for this reason, not only the army will not be able to control it, but the people will also be unable to control it.

"The minister has always been unable to figure it out, and it will not be because of the long distance, so isn't the two Guangzhous even farther? Probably because of the repeated rebellions of Bashu, rebellion has become a habit...... It's like as soon as Lei Youzhong's army arrived in Yizhou, they began to loot again, looting the people's property and robbing young and beautiful women......"

Song Jiu didn't want to say that if he changed the commander in battle, if Lei Youzhong was dissatisfied and joined the rebels, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Therefore, the minister thinks that it is not difficult to suppress the rebellion, but the governance after the rebellion, there must be a strong minister for the governor of Yizhou, even if it is a good minister, the cowardly cannot go. There are also powerful generals, who think that Ma Zhijie can do it, and after the chaos is quelled, he will still be wronged and then go to Bashu. ”

Before Wang Shun's uprising, Ma Zhijie knew Zizhou, and Wang Jien hated him for not attaching himself to him, and only gave him 300 weak soldiers from Pengzhou, so that he could fight with Wang Shun. Wang Shun attacked the city with 100,000 troops, Ma Zhijie fought from morning to night, and said angrily, the dead thief is not a strong man. This thief is not Wang Shun, but Wang Jien. I didn't want to die in vain, so I broke through with a lance, and the next day I actually found reinforcements and entered Pengzhou City again. In addition, with the merit of Liu Yang of 300 square meters, he moved to Qinzhou Zhizhou.

"This minister is good, and he can be the governor of Yizhou and the transfer envoy of this road."

"Then Bashu Ke'an."

This was the first headache for the imperial court.

Song Jiu said the second thing: "Before the minister came to the capital, he deliberately rode a horse to Yunzhou first, and then followed the bank of the Yellow River until he saw Mengzhou. The actual strategy of governing the river was told to the emperor earlier. There is also a model made by the minister in the book. The reason for this is that the Yellow River is too heavy with sand. If you want to be safe for a long time, one is to plant trees in the upper reaches of the river, bundle the soil and reduce sand, the other is to open a new river from Fan County, introduce the Yellow River into Jishui, use the flow of water to flush the sand, and then dig a new canal in Huangou and Qingshui to lead to the Huai River, and then open a new river on it, leading to the Yuhe, and divert water to wash the sand in the water hour to prevent the river sand from precipitating, and discharge the flood in time when the water is large. But that's too costly. Therefore, it was still the method of the minister and Wang Ming at that time, but at that time, due to various circumstances, the treasury had been very tight, Wang Mingzhi River was abandoned halfway, and the embankment and moon embankment in many places were not built, and the scope of the flood discharge area was not divided, so there was a shortage of embankment this time. If the treasury is sufficient, Wang Ming's river control project can be perfected, and moreover, the Hetao can be owned by our dynasty, and trees can be planted on both banks, especially Weishui, and houses can be built with cement masonry as much as possible, so as to reduce timber felling in the Qinlong area, which can also reduce conflicts with the Tibetan people. Then the harm of the Yellow River will be reduced. Or it will be expanded in the future, but if the finances allow it at that time, you can spend some money according to the strategy of the ministers, and carry out water and sand washing. This archive should also be in the Ministry of Water of Shangshu Province. ”

The Yellow River is a big problem.

Unless the Dafeichuan River in Qinghai is once again turned into a large pasture with abundant water and grass, and unless the north and south Hetao are once again turned into a place where the sky is firm, the wilderness is vast, and the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep, no matter how it is treated, it may not be cured.

It can only be said that one treatment will reduce some of the harm of the Yellow River.

The last thing to say is Liao.

"The Liao Kingdom will attack me, and there may be a very large-scale invasion."

"There are two reasons, not for revenge, even if the first emperor sent out an army to destroy Youzhou City, but it was also built, even if many Yanyun people moved back, they would hurt the people of our dynasty even more. Not for money, after the governance of Empress Dowager Xiao and Han Derang in recent years, the Liao State has also begun to become rich. The first reason is for Han Derang, and now Han Derang has appointed the king of Qi, the prime minister, and the privy envoy of the north and south, and one person has the rights of Yelu Hugo and Yelu Xian, and almost all the military and political powers of Liao. It was also allowed to build a palace tent with the Liao Emperor. It was not enough, the emperor of Liao personally wrote the Danshu iron coupon, fasted and burned incense, summoned all the ministers, and made an oath with the ancestors and the ancestors, and never failed to defeat Han Derang. ”

"Your Majesty, if you treat the minister like this, what will happen to the minister, first fainted in fright, and then hurriedly packed up his family and fled overseas. So what will Han Derang do? ”

Can you grasp the military and political power, but can you openly set up an army that only the royal family wants? Can you openly have an army that only the imperial family wants, but can you make the emperor swear in front of all the important ministers that he will never lose up?

In other words, Cao Cao and others are the real first ministers.

However, what about placing Cao Cao in the Liao State as a Han Chinese? (To be continued......)
