Ding flew out of Zhao Guan's office and got into the carriage unhappily outside the office building of the political hall. He really couldn't be happy, even if Zhao Guanjia had clearly hinted that Ding Fei could become the minister of the Ministry of Justice in the future, Ding Fei still felt very unhappy. This has nothing to do with the official position, but Ding Fei himself can't let go of his work in the Anti-Rape Committee.

If you are not happy, Ding Fei thought all the way on the road, but she didn't have the courage to find someone to talk about it. Zhao Guanjia himself

In the afternoon, Ding Fei was about to go to find Dong Yongnian, when he saw Dong Yongnian already appear at the door of Ding Fei's office. The two are old brothers who have been working together for a long time, and Ding Fei felt that Dong Yongnian should be the successor to the head of the anti-rape committee, so he felt that his chest was a little sour. Without waiting for Dong Yongnian to speak, Ding Fei said: "The official family has already told me that I am going to the household department." ”

"What?" Ding Fei was surprised.

After working in the anti-rape committee for so long, Dong Yongnian was very sensitive to the strange performance of his old partner, and he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I've been transferred too." Ding Fei replied dejectedly. The two leaders of the anti-rape committee were transferred together, which means a kind of blood exchange. At least Ding Fei felt that there was not a simple thing behind this drastic personnel change.

After a simple exchange, Dong Yongnian had already determined that Ding Fei was also leaving. Looking at Ding Fei's expression, Dong Yongnian smiled bitterly: "Since it is the meaning of the official family, let's not guess." We've been doing this for so long, and we know what the results of those rumor-mongers are. ”

“…… Did someone say bad things about us? Ding Fei's whole body became nervous.

"Hah!" Dong Yongnian may be from a deputy position, but he is not as stubborn as Ding Fei, he smiled and said: "You are also the one who wants to be the Minister of Justice, and the Minister of Justice is a six-department scholar." If you speak ill of you, can you be said to be six books? ”

Although these words also made Ding Fei feel some relief, they failed to make his emotions recover. However, at this time, it was time to get off work, and Ding Fei could only choose to get off work. Not long after arriving home, Zheng Jie from the military department came.

At this time, the Ministry of War had been reformed, and the original traditional officials and official titles were only left with the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of War. The others were replaced by the Zhao Guanjia as the title of the 21st century, and Zheng Jie was the chief of staff of the military department. When the young chief of the general staff saw Ding Fei, he asked straight to the point: "I heard that the official family is going to send you to the south?" ”

"What's wrong?" Ding Fei immediately felt that something was very wrong. It's not enough that his transfer alarmed the Ministry of Justice, but why did even the Ministry of War alarm?

"What are you doing in the south?"

"Why are you asking me about the south side?"

"You speak first."

"If you come to me, of course you have to say it first!"

……

After a verbal confrontation, Zheng Jie saw Ding Fei's tough attitude and had to say: "Don't guess. We just want to use troops against Sriwijaya, and the officials sent you to the south, I thought they were going to the south to rectify. ”

"Srivijayaya?" It took Ding Fei several seconds to remember that it was a country in the South China Sea. The Commission does not have the authority to conduct military operations abroad, and most of its knowledge of foreign countries is to guard against foreign spies. Or rather, against Mongol spies. The Three Buddhas don't seem to have much respect for the Great Song Dynasty, but for so many years, everyone has not seen anyone from the Three Buddhas come to pay tribute, and Ding Fei only has an impression.

Zheng Jie replied, "Yes. Sriwijaya tries to intercept our fleet every year, and the officials have long wanted to clean up Sriwijaya. When I heard that you were going to the south, I thought you might have to take care of the internal affairs. ”

Hearing Zheng Jie say this, Ding Fei felt that Zheng Jie probably didn't come to deceive him, so he smiled and said, "Then you are wrong." I'm going to be a prison on Fujian Road. Far away from Srivijaya. ”

"Fujian Road. Then it's none of your business. Bye. Zheng Jie pretended to get up and leave.

"Alright. Come to me, don't you drink two glasses? Ding Fei naturally stayed with Zheng Jie for dinner.

Zheng Jie and Ding Fei are both from Fuzhou, and they have such an incense love. Ding Fei invited, and Zheng Jie was not hypocritical. Just go to the community commercial street outside to buy a few meat dishes, and the two of them will eat them.

For those who are mixed with the chief of the General Staff and the head of the anti-rape committee, it is not important to eat, but to chat. When the two talked about Fujian, there was naturally a lot of mutual exchange. Their wives and children have arrived in Hangzhou, but many of their families are in Fujian. According to the information they received, after the Zhao Guanjia began to emigrate from Fujian, there were probably only a few cities left along the coast of Fujian in recent years.

"Half of the Fujian soldiers are now city soldiers?" Ding Fei really didn't understand the demographic changes, and he was greatly surprised by the current situation from the army.

"Who wants to stay in the mountains and suffer? Because some people were worried that the Mongols would cross the Yellow River and attack Henan, no one is willing to immigrate to Henan now. In addition, everyone goes to the plains of the Pearl River Delta, to the plains of Jiangnan, and to the south of Cochin, Champong, and Siam. In the early years, many people in Fujian went to those places to open up, and some people took them, and everyone was not afraid. ”

"Half of the people in Fujian are from the city. Can't think of what that looks like. Ding Fei sighed. He was in charge of the suppression of traitors, and naturally there was a study of the proportion of the population. The urbanization rate of the Great Song Dynasty is said to be 20%, which means that one in five people lives in the prefecture and county. According to Zhao's new division model, the urbanized population is the population that is employed in the city. As a result, the urbanization population has been reduced to 10 percent.

The Great Song Dynasty now has a population of 80 million, engaged in government-run industries, engaged in various handicrafts, and engaged in various animal husbandry industries. If it's really 20%, that's 16 million urban population, at least until now, the capacity of the city is far from that large.

Zheng Jie tried to correct: "It's not that they all live in the city. Half of Fujian lives around the city. They farmed and produced things, and they had to sell them to the city, and then they bought things from the city. Only half of the people who live completely in the mountains remain. ”

"That's called ...... A subsistence smallholder economy. Ding Fei flaunted his knowledge.

Zheng Jie nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, yes!" That's what we said in class. ”

"But I still can't figure out what that looks like. Are there so many mountains that no one lives? Ding Fei sighed.

"I heard that there really aren't many people living there." Zheng Jie replied.

Ding Fei thought for a moment, then smiled: "Thank you for telling me." If you go to Fujian, I will invite you to drink. ”

He provided Ding Fei with the news, and Zheng Jie naturally had a plan, he asked: "Speaking of which, is there any possibility of war in Sichuan recently?" ”

"Although the people in Sichuan are very afraid of the Zhao official family, probably no one dares to rebel. The little official's family lives very well in Lin'an, unless someone takes the little official's family to Sichuan. Otherwise, in what name did Sichuan rebel? ”

"That is to say, there are still people with bad intentions?"

"People over the age of 60 are all from the Rijong Dynasty, and they feel that they became officials earlier than the official family. Of course, I was not convinced. Many people over the age of 50 are officials at the same time as the official family, and these people know the reputation and achievements of the official family, but they are not happy in their hearts, and they dare not say anything. Those over forty years old, except for some ambitious, have never thought of evaluating the status of the official family. As long as the people over 60 years old are all Zhishi this time, and they go to tea and cool, no one dares to say anything. The official's disposition this time was very decisive. ”

"I see." Zheng Jie nodded repeatedly. When Zhao Taiwei was in power, the Song army established by Zhao Taiwei had all kinds of ideas. Zheng Jie was also worried about whether Zhao Taiwei would ascend to the throne, and like those who were staunch supporters, Zheng Jie was worried that Zhao Taiwei would just stop at power, which would be a bad thing for them as followers.

When Taiwei Zhao became the official Zhao family, Zheng Jie was worried that someone was plotting against him, and wanted to take advantage of such a big change to do something. Now through Ding Fei's analysis, it turns out that Taiwei Zhao has quietly eliminated all kinds of dangerous elements. Thinking of this, Zheng Jie was in a relaxed mood, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, he couldn't help but want to drop his schoolbag, and he smiled: "Is this a glass of wine to release military power?" ”

Ding Fei graduated from school anyway, and he was amused after hearing this, "A glass of wine releases military power, a fart!" You don't want to think about it, if a glass of wine releases military power, then you and I have to go home to retire. Now it is the people of the previous dynasty who go home to retire. ”

"A glass of wine releases military power, and the one who is stumped to go home to retire is not from the previous dynasty?" Zheng Jie refuted Ding Fei's words.

"This ......" Ding Fei thought about it, it was really the same thing. The people who helped Zhao Kuangyin seize the throne back then were not from the Great Song Dynasty, but the subordinates of the Later Zhou Chai family. It's just that these subordinates are under the command of Zhao Kuangyin. Zheng Jie was able to say such a truth, and Ding Fei, who couldn't refute it, immediately looked at Zheng Jie with some admiration. Zheng Jie's gang was not born in a systematic education, and Ding Fei originally underestimated the cultural level of these people.

The two drank for a while, and Zheng Jie got up to say goodbye. Ding Fei sent Zheng Jie away, and suddenly felt much better. Recalling Dong Yongnian's words during the day, Ding Fei was promoted this time. The current Minister of Justice, Sima Kao, will reach the age of Zhishi in five or six years, and Ding Fei should be able to take over the Ministry of Justice as long as there is no accident in the past few years. Forty-year-old Liubu Shangshu, what is there to disagree with?

As for the Zhao Guanjia's relative use of troops by the Three Buddhas, Ding Fei already knew that he just listened to it. A lot of people just talk stupidly, and that's what leads to bad things.

However, the Zhao family is very serious about this. Sriwijaya covers the area on both sides of the Straits of Malacca, and even in the 21st century, Malay pirates are famous here. In the Great Song Dynasty, acts of near-piracy were the state acts of the Srivijaya. All ships passing through the strait were ordered to dock at Sriwijaya and forced to trade in Sriwijayaya.

Since the establishment of the Navigation Guild, the Great Song Dynasty has used artillery to bombard the Sriwijaya ships when the large fleet passes by every year, which can be regarded as stopping the actions of the Srivijaya. However, it is inevitable that there will be accidents on the sea boat, and the personnel on the ship of the Great Song Dynasty were caught by the Three Buddhas, and the end was very bad. Of course, in the eyes of the Three Buddhas, the Great Song Dynasty killed so many people of the Three Buddhas, flaunted their might on the sea of the Three Buddhas, and owed the people of the Three Buddhas a deep hatred of blood.

Zhao Guanjia felt that the country needed to be cleaned, and overseas could not turn a blind eye. After talking to the chief of the general staff of the Ministry of War, Zhao Guan's family summoned the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs one after another. At this time, the Maritime Guild had been placed under the Ministry of Household Affairs as a maritime administration, and these people were closely related to maritime interests. Naturally, they need their full support.

At the meeting of the Maritime Safety Bureau, Director Qi Ye of the Great Song Dynasty General Money Village was also pulled to participate. How many years will this war take, what it will be, and what the final price will be paid will need to be discussed by more people who understand maritime trade.

Because of the matter of Zhishi, Director Qi Ye has not been in a very good mood recently. Hearing about the war, Qi Ye immediately said: "It should have been fought a long time ago." The Three Buddhas can destroy the country. ”

The people of the Maritime Safety Bureau knew that the Sriwijaya and the Great Song Dynasty were in conflict, so they did not object. Many of the officials of the household department did not know, especially Sun Qing, the new household servant who had begun to enter the transition period, was born in Qingyuan Mansion, and was assigned by the imperial court back then, and followed Zhao Guan's family to engage in cotton affairs. As soon as this person heard these murderous words, he was a little stunned.

"Director Qi, why did you get such a killing?" Sun Qing asked.

Qi Ye replied simply, "I have relatives in my family who died at the hands of the Three Buddhas. If you ask these maritime authorities, aren't there any distant relatives who died at the hands of Sriwijayaya? ”

"Huh?" Sun Qing was stunned, logically speaking, shouldn't it be a business affair? How can you even talk about personal enmity so clearly.

To Sun Qing's surprise, these people from the Maritime Safety Bureau agreed one after another. Zhao Guanjia was 19 years old at the time of the Battle of Ezhou, and after the Battle of Ezhou, he returned to Fujian to continue to be an official, and the first person to deal with was the Pu family. After the fall of the Pu family, the Zhao family quickly let the Navigation Guild take over the position of the Great Food Merchants in the South China Sea. Almost 20 years have passed since then.

In the past 20 years, there have been many conflicts between the Great Song Dynasty and the Three Buddhas, and of course the Qi family cannot send all outsiders to the maritime business, of course they have to involve their own families. The same is true for the Maritime Administration, where it is normal for people to die at sea.

Yuan Bingnan, director of the Maritime Affairs Bureau, said: "Now our shipping route enters the Tianzhu Ocean, and everywhere we go is the wind and grass, and the four Yi surrender. But these three Buddhas are stuck in our throats, and they are really like fish in our throats. At this time, everyone is happy. ”

Sun Qing looked at Yuan Bingnan, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart. Yuan Bingnan's father, Yuan Hongjie, is the minister of the Zhao official family and one of the competitors of the Hubu Shangshu.

"That's right. At this time, we still have a four-year truce with Mongolia and can go to war against Sriwijaya. Officials from other maritime administrations share the same opinion.

Sun Qing, as the leader of this time, saw that everyone was unanimous and he had no special reason to object, so he said: "Then let's talk about what the result will be." ”

"Like Cochin and Cham, the Three Buddhas will destroy the country." Qi Ye replied very simply.

Hearing these murderous words, Sun Qing felt a little indescribably funny in his heart, a few Great Song Dynasty officials could decide the fate of a country thousands of miles away with such a discussion. This...... It seems to be a joke.
