The season is like a stream, and it is the fifth year of Baoyou in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Meng started to build a town outside the festival and took on the task of countering the rebellion, so he did not return to Lin'an for the New Year.

With the frequent arrival of good news in Lin'an, the people are more and more at ease, and the world's largest city has resumed its appearance of singing and dancing.

In the middle of the court, at the beginning, there were many court officials who impeached King Yan for acting recklessly under the pretext of quelling the rebellion, persecuting the local gentry, and changing the local system without authorization, but the officials became more and more slack, and occasionally held a few small court meetings, but they did not even hold a regular dynasty.

The small court will only be qualified at the rank of Zaizhi, so the vast majority of officials have not seen the holy face for a long time, and there is no chance of public impeachment in front of the emperor.

The bullet stamps that were sent into the palace like snowflakes were only sunk into the sea, and there was no news.

Seeing this situation, all the officials understood that the official family was determined to be the shopkeeper, and let King Yan let it go, no matter how he tossed it, he didn't care anymore.

And the officials of the Yanwang family don't know whether they have foreseen it or have been entrusted, so they have been watching this impeachment move coldly, and then burying their heads in doing things, disdainful of arguing at all.

Those court officials found that the impeachment was just self-exciting, and they couldn't even make a splash, and they gradually felt bored, so they were dumbfounded, and instead of wasting their energy in vain, it was better to find a few glamorous and pretty women to study the origin of life in depth.

Although the Zhao official family was sluggish, the bureaucratic system had developed very maturely by this time, and there was no difference between daily government affairs and the participation of the emperor, so the government was still operating normally.

In the past six months, the Mongols have made small moves, but no major wars have broken out, and the whole is quite stable.

Jiang Wanli is responsible for the West Zhejiang Road meridian is also carried out in an orderly manner, and there are no more accidents, after all, most of the gentry in the two Zhejiang Road are busy making a fortune now, even if there are people who want to make trouble, without the cooperation of the gentry, they can't make any waves.

The Taihu Lake control project is also relatively smooth on the whole, Pingjiang Mansion is becoming more and more prosperous, last year the agricultural tax was exempted for a year, but this year it paid 116 stone tax grain to the imperial court, which shocked the jaw of the court inside and outside, which was four times that of the previous year.

This is not counting, in the past, the commercial tax was at most five or six hundred thousand yuan, but Baoyou escorted 3.67 million yuan to the imperial court in four years, so that the household officials began to walk with the wind.

Wu Qian's exploits are obvious to all, so at the end of the year, the imperial court moved him to the ambassador of coastal control, sentenced to Qingyuan Mansion, and was responsible for the coastal military defense of the Liangzhejiang Road.

Then Ye Mengding, who had been worried for another year and nine months, took over Wu Qian's original position, the pacification envoy of Xi'an, Zhejiang, and the governor of Pingjiang Mansion, and the general leader of the Taihu Lake Comprehensive Management Division.

Ding Wei was supposed to take three years, but in fact, few high-ranking officials in the Song Dynasty were full, so no one could say anything about Ye Mengding's recovery.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the imperial court announced that it would resist the Mongol invasion of Baihe, Fuhe, and Yuquan, and promote Wu Qian's third brother Wu Yuan to the governor's office and the Privy Council.

Originally, in history, Wu Yuan would die on the eighth day of the first lunar month, but here because Zhao Mengqi sent a physician to regulate his body a year ago, he should be able to continue his life for several years, and returned to the court in mid-February to sit in the center for King Yan.

So the court pattern was restored to the triumvirate model, Dong Huai was the right prime minister and privy envoy, as the prime minister, Cheng Yuanfeng was the left prime minister and signed the Privy Council, as the second minister, and Wu Yuan was the three ministers.

After all, political struggles are full of uncertainty and are prone to big ups and downs, and apart from some speculators, most officials still prefer a more stable political environment.

And this pattern is considered to be in the middle, but it is more biased towards King Yan, so the Zhang family, Ma Tianji, Chen Dafang and others can only temporarily lie dormant on the surface, slowly arrange it secretly, and accumulate strength in the yin alliance.

In the eyes of Zhao Guanjia, now is the peaceful day that he is striving for, the court is harmonious and peaceful, he does not make trouble for himself, and his son is shrewd and capable, which is enough to support the society of the country, and he doesn't need to worry about it at all.

has been an emperor for more than 30 years, and has long since worn out his ambitions, and now the successor is good enough, and he has a healthy and strong son, whether in public or private, he can have a good explanation of his ancestors and ancestors.

Most of people's troubles come from the pursuit, once there is no pressure and motivation, be content with the status quo and lie down, this life is not too moisturizing.

Comfortable and leisurely, Zhao Guan's family is becoming more and more lazy, and the mood is more beautiful and open-minded, even Zhao Hui said that he was going to accompany his brother for the New Year, he did not object too much, Zhao Hui was just coquettish and cute, and after a few pleas, he agreed.

So, Zhao Hui and Zhao Qian rushed to Quanzhou happily a year ago, accompanied by Wanwan, but Wanwan left and returned to Pingjiang Mansion after the Lantern Festival, after all, she is now a person with a career......

In recent months, navigation between Liuqiu and Quanzhou has become a daily routine, with ships departing and arriving almost every day in the ports of both places.

And Zhao Mengqi also runs at both ends frequently, and spends half of his time on the boat, so he simply treats Shenzhou as a mobile Jiedu Mansion, making Zhao Hui and Zhao Yun the two princesses about to become the daughters of the sea.

As long as Shenzhou docked in the port, you can see officials of all sizes running to the wharf frequently, and even set up a temporary office near the wharf.

After February, the Mori were completely wiped out, the adults were mercilessly slaughtered, and the young women and young children were given to the obedient tribes, presumably to become slaves and maids.

In addition to Luding County, Lubei, Ludong, and Lunan counties were also set up, excluding the garrison, there were nearly 200,000 Han people, of which thousands were all kinds of traders who spontaneously ran away.

On this side of Fujian Road, the counterinsurgency matter is also nearing the end, Tingzhou has been recovered, and Chen Wei is in charge, becoming the headquarters of the counterinsurgency army, and the remaining more than 30,000 rebels have been driven to Ninghua County, and the destruction is only in the future.

After reading King Yan's handwritten letter, Chen Wei carefully took back the envelope, and then looked at the map and fell into thought.

Although Lu Xiufu on the side was very curious about the content of the letter, he abided by the rules and did not ask rashly, nor did he disturb Chen Wei's thinking.

After a long time, Chen Wei spoke, "Junshi, your staff group has drawn up a battle plan, and in three days, launch a general attack on Ninghua, the purpose is not to annihilate everything, but to force the backbone of the traitors to go west." ”

Lu Xiufu frowned and puzzled, "Chen Xiang, now that the various departments are about to be in place, there is no pressure to encircle and annihilate the rebels, why do you deliberately set up the enemy?" If the traitor flows into Jiangxi Road, it will be infinitely poisonous. ”

"That's what Your Highness meant." Chen Wei smiled and continued to explain, "It's not that you want to let go of all the rebels, just control them at three or five thousand people, and when they arrive in Jiangxi, there are still the second and third brigades of the Dongwei waiting for them, well, there is no need to hide it from you, in fact, His Royal Highness wants the second and third brigades to move to Jingjiang Mansion, but the simple march is inevitably boring, so give them the remnants of the traitors as training objects, and control and drive them to Jingjiang like a cat and mouse, which is much more difficult than simply exterminating them." ”

"Jingjiang Mansion?" Lu Xiufu's eyes lit up, "Your Highness... Your Highness, is this going to Dali? ”

Chen Wei admired Lu Xiufu's acumen very much, and nodded with admiration in his eyes, "It's good that you know about this, don't tell others first, after recovering Ninghua, we have to take care of everything before April, and then return to Quanzhou as a whole army, and then go to Qiongzhou for adaptive training." ”

When Lu Xiufu heard this, he was puzzled again, Qiongzhou training?

Could it be that His Highness is planning to attack Dali in two ways?

It doesn't seem to be necessary, after all, the two main passages from Guangnan West Road to Dali are in Shicheng County, and there is not much difference between dividing and not dividing, but it is better to get supplies from Yongzhou by sea, and the logistical pressure will be less.

Lu Xiufu thought that he had thought of a reason to divide the troops, but Zhao Mengqi did not intend to ...... from Yongzhou at all

Towards April, many merchants from all over the world began to rush to Quanzhou in advance, because around May is the time when the monsoon turns, which means that most of the merchant ships return with countless overseas goods.

In previous years, when the maritime trade was prosperous, there were only thirty or fifty merchant ships a year, but last year, under the impetus of Zhao Mengqi, more than 100 large ships went out, and more than 100 ships of goods were brought back.

At first glance, the scarcity is expensive, and the supply is two or three times more at once, and the goods are definitely not so tight, and they should not be so attractive to merchants.

In fact, it is not the case, you must know that the sea trade has been depressed for so long, and smuggling alone cannot meet the huge demand for goods in the market, even if there are suddenly more than 100 ships of goods, it will not be able to satisfy the appetite of the rich people of the Great Song Dynasty.

That is to say, as long as you can get the goods, you don't have to worry about making money, and Yanwang has also released the specialization, which greatly reduces the entry threshold, and people who were not qualified before can also come up to get a piece of the pie.

The vicinity of the wharf is the place where merchants often hang out, and it is also the center of news exchange from all over the world.

"Hey, I used to come to Quanzhou often, but this time I feel that it has changed so much, the city is still the same city, the houses are still those houses, and the shops haven't changed much, but there are really a lot of people in his mother."

"Harbor merchants, people from ten continents in the market, there were a lot of people in the past, but now it looks several times more, not to mention anything else, in the inn where I lived, it used to be only 300 Wen a day, and it has not changed for decades, but this time I came to ask for 500 Wen, and I grabbed one by virtue of the face of the old familiar customer."

"In the past, the streets were bustling and lively, but now they are crowded with people, and many people seem to be on fire under their buttocks, and they walk as if they are flying."

"In the words of His Royal Highness King Yan, time is money, if you want to get rich, you can't run faster?"

"The change in Quanzhou is not only the number of people, but also the construction of countless workshops on the south bank ......of the Jinjiang River."

"Oh no, no, according to reliable sources, three more ships have been hijacked."

"Huh!? How can it be? Didn't you say that King Yan had already sent troops to sweep away all the pirates? ”

"Hey, you don't know about this, now there must be no Haikou within a thousand miles of Quanzhou, but not all of them have been wiped out by King Yan, many of them have fled to Nanyang, no matter how powerful King Yan is, there is nothing to do with them, besides, there are many Haikou there, especially near Zhancheng, there are so many Haikou as much as a cow's hair......"

"Isn't Champa also our vassal? If something happens in their territory, won't the court just ask? ”

"A few days ago, there have been several incidents, and it is said that the king of Yan sent several harshly worded documents to Zhancheng, urging them to ensure that the sea route is unblocked."

"It's also white-haired, in fact, the backers of those Haikou are the official government of Zhancheng, and even some are simply the officials and soldiers of Zhancheng, Zhancheng is a nest of Haikou people, besides, although it is nominally a vassal, but our Great Song Dynasty is not the Tang Dynasty, there is no deterrent at all, and in the past, they are probably perfunctory."

"We are also orthodox in the world, how can we be reduced to the point that even a small country can be bullied?"

"What's the use of orthodoxy, if the martial arts are not abundant, then no one will dare to step on it......"

"Speaking of which, the place that occupies the city is Xianglin County, Rinan County, Han Dynasty, which was stolen by a group of thieves, we have a lot of land and resources, and we don't bother to care about the corners and corners, as long as they are obedient, they will pinch their noses and admit it, it was okay before, these thieves are quite obedient, but now that our country is falling, they will kick their noses in the face."

"If you want me to say, you should take it back as soon as possible, otherwise how can you be worthy of your ancestors? And the city is not a horn, but the sea route to rush, the land is still very fertile, the treasure land of three crops a year, now it is a famous granary, if the Han people are allowed to cultivate, at least the grain production will have to be doubled several times. ”

"It's light, receive? How to collect?! What to take? If we have that ability, where do they dare to be presumptuous? ”

"It's true, the one who can keep the current half of the country is Amitabha... It seems that those who were robbed can only blame themselves for being unlucky......"

"Going to sea, it's no different from licking blood from the knife, there will always be a few unlucky, it's not a man-made disaster or a natural disaster, now it's actually a lot better, if you buy insurance, as long as people can come back alive, you can still recover a lot of losses."

"Hey, is hard to eat, money is hard to make, by the way, what is this insurance?"
