Gao Yu walked out of the emperor's side hall, walked down the imperial steps with a sigh of relief, and a person behind him called in a low voice: "Gao Dianshuai, stay."

Gao Yu hurriedly turned around and arched his hand: "Liang Gong, what do you have to order?"

Liang Shicheng walked down the steps with a smile on his face, wrapped the fox robe on his body and said with a smile: "Our family has warmed a pot of wine in the small warm pavilion in front of the palace, the weather is cold and the wind is cold, how about inviting Gao Dianshuai to come over and have a drink?"

Gao Yu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted...... Emperor Zhao Ji is still not at ease! In the matter of the sky lantern, I am afraid that if I want to let this hidden Liang Shicheng control one or two, I must not let myself mess up...... Perhaps, there is something else.

Liang Shicheng is a real old fox, he has never had anything to do with foreign ministers in the palace, and it must be the emperor's intention to openly invite himself to drink, which can be regarded as supporting himself in disguise!

"Hahaha, Liang Gong invited, Gao Yu had to win the panic! Liang Gong please. ”

"Hahaha...... Go, go, go, go! ”

In the distance, the two eunuchs led the two officials to walk quickly, it was the current high-ranking Tongzhongshu Sect Pingzhang Cabinet Minister Wang Huang and University Scholar Cai You.

Cai You's relationship with his father Cai Jing broke down, and he won the favor of Song Huizong even more, playing with the way of checks and balances, but it was the basic skill of the emperor's mental art. If the Cai family wants to continue the holy grace, it is impossible for the father and son to be important ministers together......

As for whether Cai Jing really had a bad relationship with his father, or whether the father and son were tacitly acknowledged, this is not what Zhao Ji cares about. Cai You left Cai Jing's Taishi Mansion, and Zhao Ji immediately rewarded the courtyard garden with an attitude...... I don't want to see you father and son in calamity!

Since then, Cai Jing has concentrated on cultivating his second son Cai Juan, and it is said that Cai You was very angry about this, and slandered the emperor several times to kill Cai Juan! It's worth playing with how much of this is acting and how much of it is true hatred......

Whether Cai Jing is using Cai Qian as a cover, or whether he really intends to train Cai Qian to completely replace Cai You to support the big tree of the Cai family, it is estimated that the three of them father and son are not clear. However, Cai Qian does not have the power of drilling camp like his brother, but he still has some real talents.

Cai You looked at the backs of Liang Shicheng and Gao Yu, and pouted: "Why did you entertain him in secret?" A captain of Keju, an insatiable marketman......"

Wang Hao's mind was much more gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "Xu is that guy has made a lot of money from the gambling club, and Lord Yin Xiang naturally wants to appease this good wealth boy!"

"Humph!" Cai You shook his head and stretched out his hand: "Wang Xiang, please!"

"Hahaha, Brother Cai Xian...... Why is it polite? ”

The two of them each had a ghost and went to see Song Huizong.

Here, Gao Yu followed Liang Shicheng to a side hall in a panic, and there was already a table of wine and food in a small warm pavilion in the room, and there were two waiters standing next to it.

Gao Yu knew that today's wine game had been prepared in advance, and he didn't know if it was Zhao Ji's meaning or Liang Shicheng's meaning.

"Lord Liang, please!"

"Gao Dianshuai doesn't have to be polite."

The two sat down, and the little waiter next to them carefully poured wine for the two.

Liang Shicheng said with a smile: "Gao Dianshuai, Your Majesty is now determined to use troops against Northern Liao!" Can't the Jingying Forbidden Army go wrong...... Can you make up for some of the shortfalls in the past? ”

Gao Yu replied: "Lord Yinxiang, rest assured, there are 230,000 forbidden troops stationed in key places in Gyeonggi, and the Privy Council has requisitioned 180,000 elites, and the training has already been completed!" There is no shortage of armor tents, but the Muhugang military horse camp is ...... It's the henchmen of the Privy Council who are guarding, and the horses and carts are ......"

"You don't have to worry about that, someone will mention them, you don't have to worry about the Northland Forbidden Army, Your Majesty also has his own arrangements! For this Northern Expedition, His Majesty even stopped the construction of Genyue Garden...... But I wronged myself! Military...... Grain and grass allocation, although the three divisions have some different opinions, but they are also diligent! Your Majesty also said that the current courtiers are okay to do...... There are not many people who can really worry about you! ”

As soon as Gao Yu heard this, he understood in his heart, Zhao Ji still couldn't let go of this bit of about Genyue Garden!

Jiangnan has been looted and rebelled by the Ying Feng Bureau, and now it is at the critical moment of exterminating Fang La, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and every day Gao Yu will also receive some reports of the forbidden army's battle damage and head merit...... That string of numbers made Gao Yu, who had never experienced a big battle, look frightened!

…… In December, 1,215 people died of illness in the Western Army, and 4,562 people died in three battles in which bandits fell into the water...... 17,545 Manichaean bandits were killed, and 49,000 bandits were killed...... Slaughtered 74,000 bandits...... Slash ...... The six battalions of the forbidden army lost 5,530 ...... Slash ......

Gao Yu can be regarded as a high-ranking official who has seen a big scene, but he will still sigh for a long time when he picks up the battle report and looks at it...... Heads are rolling! How many of these dead people were killed? How many of the soldiers who reported their dead took the opportunity to report to make up for the shortfall in their empty salaries in the past?

What a mess!

But even so, the emperor was still thinking about the majestic and secluded Genyue...... It can be seen that this emperor ...... He's a good emperor!

Gao Yu nodded and said, "My Emperor Shengming! For the sake of the eternal foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, I really wronged myself...... The old minister is not talented, and he is willing to share worries for the king! Genyue is the essence of heaven and earth, and the scenery of the Great Song Dynasty! But it will be handed down to future generations for generations to look up to and boast of...... Such a desolation is simply a tyrannical thing! ”

Liang Shicheng said with a smile: "Gao Taiwei is good at management and knows how to advance and retreat!" There is more loyalty...... Your Majesty is not wrong! ”

Gao Yu gritted his teeth and said: "Wazi Street has been destroyed, and I don't know how long it will take to rebuild it...... Lao Chen thought of a way to send some troops from the vicinity of Gyeonggi into the city and build it quietly...... As for the silver, Wazi Street can't count on it, so it depends on the gambling club......"

Liang Shicheng's eyes lit up: "The gambling club is now earning nearly one million, is there any other way to make a profit?"

"Keju, horse racing, these two are the biggest lottery heads, and you can make a profit of nearly 150,000 yuan per month! In addition, the shops near the stadium are also owned by the forbidden army, and the rent and income are also 350,000 taels! ”

Liang Shicheng was shocked...... "What? Nearly two million taels a year? How...... Why did the inner court only get more than 800,000?"

Gao Yu sighed: "Charity charity...... Nearly half of this year's profits have been taken out to persuade students to do relief! Every year, Taixue has to take away more than 100,000 taels to repair houses, buy books, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones...... It is also necessary to subsidize the travel expenses, room and board expenses, and give them to the people from all over the world who enter Beijing! I also have to entertain people from poor families for free to prepare for the exam in the capital...... Some of them failed to make the list, but they didn't leave the capital, and they lived in the student inn of the charity gaming club every day! As soon as people are driven out, the professors of Taixue and Guozijian have to scold people...... said that we are under the banner of charity, and the official fights gambling and corrupts the world! ”

Liang Shicheng said angrily: "These sour and rotten Confucians are really insatiable!"

Gao Yu sighed: "There is also relief, over the years, even the victims of the disaster have been displaced again, and more than one million people have been rescued!" I didn't see much less of the victims who fled to Bianliang, I'm afraid that they were almost greedy by those local officials......"

Liang Shicheng sighed...... "This, let Yushitai worry about it!" It's just that this silver flowed out in vain, which is really a pity! ”

Where did Gao Yu dare to offend Taixue and Guozijian? There's no reason why those poor sour people have to scold a few times, they can't be killed, they can't be scolded...... At every turn, he threatens to go outside the palace gate to petition and beat the drum!

Reducing charity spending is a hot potato, and Liang Shicheng, an old fox, will definitely not do it, and it is estimated that it will fall into the hands of Cai You, Wang Huang, and Li Yan...... But you can also get some oil and water, but this infamy has to be borne for Song Huizong!

Gao Yu arched his hand and said, "Duke Liang, there are still some confidential matters here...... Can ......"

Liang Shicheng glanced at the little chamberlain who was waiting next to him, and the little chamberlain hurriedly bowed down cautiously and carefully closed the door of the warm pavilion.
