Chapter 263: The Future of Military Generals

Every decision of the emperor will not be untargeted.

Let Zhen Jizu be under the command of Qin, firstly, it can be convenient to explore the situation in Fuzhou, and secondly, it can cultivate a force that truly belongs to him.

Once there is a change in the DPRK, the Zhejia family is the trump card in Zhao Zhen's hand!

Of course, it is better not to have such a situation, after all, it has only been a few decades since the Chenqiao Mutiny, and it is false to say that you are not afraid.

"As for what position to give him......

Zhao Zhen looked at Wang Zhen, he was a privy envoy, and Ji Zu was a military general, how to arrange it, and he was in charge.

Wang Zhen thought for a while and said: "The front division of the palace lacks a deputy commander, and Zhen Jizu has military exploits this time, and the deputy commander of a military division can be regarded as a reward." ”

Deputy Commander of the Front Division of the Palace.

In the past, Di Qing was in this position, and he was younger than his step-ancestor.

However, most of this is the result of Qin Wei secretly fueling the troubles.

"That's right...... And that Di Qing. ”

Zhao Zhen glanced at Qin Wei and said: "He is now in command of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and his position has not changed, so he will be named a six-rank cavalry general." ”

Di Qing made a lot of contributions in the battle of Fuzhou, although Qin Wei never mentioned it after going to the palace, but Zhao Zhen, as the emperor, still has clear rewards and punishments.

The six-rank Xiaocai general, although it is a small military title, has laid the foundation for Di Qing's career.

The little emperor is interesting enough!

The rest of the words were left with some unnutritious chatter, and the monarch and the ministers tacitly completed the debriefing.

Qin Wei retired, and he was ready to go home immediately.

I haven't seen you for three months, and my thoughts are like inexhaustible spring water.

The monarchs and ministers then dispersed, and Zhao Zhen went to the Empress Dowager Liu E.

Since Liu E gradually retreated into the background, Zhao Zhen has more and more power in his hands.

But in terms of Qin Wei's persuasion, this is just a test of mother and son, and he still has a long way to go.

Therefore, Zhao Zhen's attitude towards Liu E is more respectful, whether it is flattering or really deep mother-son love, at least in the eyes of outsiders, the mother and son of the heavenly family have finally returned to the life of mother and son filial piety again.

This is a good thing for Da Song.

Liu E was busy asking someone to get hot tea, and then asked someone to massage Zhao Zhen and beat him.

Zhao Zhen sat on the circle chair, closed his eyes, and enjoyed the massage of the palace maid.

He couldn't help but snort a few times, and then felt a little embarrassed, so he said: "Queen Mother, the good news of Fuzhou is coming, Ji Min broke the Western Xia army, and Li Yuanhao of Western Xia fled in the wilderness!" ”

Li Yuanhao is the next successor of Western Xia, and strictly speaking, Zhao Zhen is also the successor of the Great Song Dynasty.

The Great Song Dynasty defeated the Western Xia, and it can also be said that Zhao Zhen defeated Li Yuanhao.

So when he said this, Zhao Zhen had a little pride on his face.

And it used to be Zhao Zhen's spare tire, so of course Zhao Zhen has to make a gesture of concern.

Liu E sat on the side, the wrinkles on her old face deepened, and she looked out with a faint gaze, "The mourning family read the report, saying that it was Qin Wei who led the Northern Expeditionary Army to raid, which led to the rout of the Western Xia army...... Moreover, some people say that they saw a new weapon from the Northern Expeditionary Army on the battlefield......"

Zhao Zhen's eyes rolled for a moment, and he said with a smile: "The queen mother is talking about the bow and crossbow, right?" ”

Liu E turned her head and looked at her son lightly.

Mother and son are still playing this kind of scheming, and they are tired!

Are you afraid that being a mother will hurt you?

Liu E sighed, and then said: "You asked the Imperial City Division to hide some details in the battle reports of various places, but the more you hide it like this, the more suspicious it is. ”

Zhao Zhen's face was slightly red, and he lowered his head and did not speak.

Liu E glanced at Ah Fu in the corner, and then said, "Go and call Ye Shuangchou." ”

Later, Ye Shuangchou came, Liu E looked at his grimace with some disgust, turned her face away, and said: "I heard that the thing Qin Wei used in Fuzhou is very powerful, and once it explodes, everyone will be shattered, but is it true?" ”

Ye Shuangchou didn't care about Liu E's attitude at all, even if she was the most powerful queen mother in the dynasty.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Zhen was a little relieved in his heart, and said lightly: "The queen mother is here, why don't you Diao slave hurry up and tell me about the matter in detail?" ”

These words seem to be scolding, but Liu E knows that her son is afraid of being happy at this moment.

After getting permission, Ye Shuangchou said briefly, "It's gunpowder, and the lethality is amazing!" ”

Although there is no rhetoric, but to make this killing machine of the Imperial City Division say such words as 'amazing lethality', Liu E probably has a little understanding of gunpowder.

But she frowned again and said, "Isn't gunpowder used to burn?" Why did it explode? ”

"This is Qin Wei's way, and the secret recipe is only known to His Majesty and a few craftsmen."

Liu E raised her eyes to look at the void and asked, "Have you started making it?" ”

When my son grew up, he knew that he had good things to hide.

But why is it a little sad?

Zhao Zhen saw the loneliness on Liu E's face, and said softly: "That gunpowder is so powerful that it can't be stopped by manpower, so you have to be cautious ......"

Mother, it's not that my son doesn't say it, it's really that the Queen Mother's party has too many and complex personnel, if it is leaked.

The trump card of gunpowder will become a disaster for the Great Song Dynasty.

"Really?"

Ye Shuangchou nodded and said: "Qin Wei had shown it in front of the privy envoy Wang Zhen before, a small wooden barrel, all turned into scorched earth within a radius of half a mile, Wang Zhen knew that this matter was huge, and this matter was suppressed, and now not many people in the court know about it." ”

The corners of Liu E's mouth curled slightly, and then there was more disdain in her eyes: "They shout loyalty to the monarch and serve the country all day long? They thought that the way of Confucius and Mencius, the sages and rituals could make the Great Song Dynasty rich and strong. But they don't know that great powers compete with each other with their fists! Without absolute force, anything is for nothing. It's time for them to know what a great power is......"

Zhao Zhen was shocked in his heart, and said: "Does the queen mother want to make this matter public?" ”

Liu E's eyes were cold at the moment, and there was no mercy at all.

He glanced at Zhao Zhen and said, "If the Great Song Dynasty wants to be above the countries, it must not only have the means but also the power to look down on the world...... Have you seen the cowering Northern Han? Have you ever heard that the Tang Dynasty is afraid of foreign raids? Gunpowder is a sharp weapon given by God to the Great Song Dynasty, you have to use this thing well! ”

Zhao Zhen only felt an explosion in his head, and his scalp couldn't help tingling.

His hands clasped each other, and he said with some shock: "Does the queen mother want to use troops abroad?!" ”

The emperors of the Great Song Dynasty were always looking forward to recapturing the sixteen states of Yanyun that belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty.

But the idea is only one aspect.

The reality is that they have so many things to worry about that they don't even dare to take a step forward.

Liu E sighed: "It's too early to use soldiers, but it's good to deter, if you want to innovate, you must first stabilize the external troubles, otherwise, all the internal worries will suddenly calm the external troubles, how do you deal with it?" ”

In the corner, the sculpture reacted for the first time, and although it only moved, its reaction could be seen.

This is a bold queen mother!

To the point, the reason why Renzong's dynasty was able to become the most famous era of the Great Song Dynasty was that Zhao Zhen was tolerant and generous.

What's more, Liu E used her only a few years in power to bring real peace to the Great Song Dynasty!

Talking about the law of the ancestors, it is bullshit to the emperor.

Who will not be an ancestor in a hundred years?

These things were just a means used by the emperor to restrain his courtiers, and any rules could be changed when the time came.

Don't say it's the ancestors, and Jesus can't keep it!

Zhao Zhen is not a fool, he is just a little weak, but Liu E's words gave him the confidence to do enough.

At least in terms of innovation, the Queen Mother is supportive, and this is the strongest backing.

"Rest assured, I can do it...... Xu Mao ......"

"The minister is here."

Xu Mao trotted in, and Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "You go and tell Qin Wei and let him hurry up the development of gunpowder, money and people...... Let's come out of Neku, last time he got that bet, Neku is now quite rich. ”

Or is the little family angry, are you afraid that those Zaifu will have two hearts?

Liu E smiled in her heart, and continued: "The Imperial City Division must ensure the safety of the secret recipe and the craftsman, if necessary...... Some people with ulterior motives can be removed. ”

Ye Shuangchou glanced at Zhao Zhen, and then nodded: "Obey!" ”

For Qin Wei, a young man who once had a bad relationship with the Liu family and then became a firm emperor, Liu E went from hesitant to calm and then curious...... That's all the way.

She said lightly: "I heard that he killed five people on the battlefield...... Talented, and bloody, rare...... I heard that he also brought the step-ancestor of the Zhe family back to Beijing with him? ”

"Well, there is a step-ancestor here, and the family can feel at ease in the Fuzhou Imperial Court."

Zhao Zhen nodded first, and then there was still a little envy on his face.

He also wants to go into battle to kill the enemy, but as an emperor, he is destined to have no chance in this life.

Liu E glanced at him, with love in her eyes, and said with a smile: "That's a battlefield!" The young man had been shouting about strengthening the army before he went, and this time he went to Fuzhou and couldn't control him if he wanted to come to Jimin, so he ...... I forgot that he had made military achievements, and it was not small, how is Your Majesty going to reward him? ”

This is also a headache for Zhao Zhen.

It stands to reason that Qin Wei made military achievements, not only defeating Li Yuanhao of Western Xia, but also frustrating the plans of Xia and Liao.

I believe that after this battle, Xia and Liao also saw the attitude of the Great Song Dynasty, and the border was able to live in peace for a while.

That's a big deal.

If Qin Wei is a middle-aged man in his thirties, as long as Zhao Zhen wants to, even if he is a privy deputy envoy, he will only be criticized by the ministers for a few days.

But now he is only nineteen years old, have you heard that the Great Song Dynasty has a nineteen-year-old privy deputy?

What a nine-year-old worship, what a teenager Zaifu, these are all stories in the book.

If you really do this, not to mention that the ministers will not agree, even Wang Zhen will not agree.

Excessive rewards are killing, and Huo Quzhi is a bloody example.

But if you don't reward it, it will inevitably chill the loyal ministers.

After all, people returned to the dynasty with great merit, and even Di Qing and Zhe Jizu had the corresponding last time, if they didn't give a reward, even if Qin Wei himself didn't care and understood his approach.

But I'm afraid that the imperial historians who are waiting to take the handle will be happy.

Merit or not? Come on, let's impeach you, is there any better way to invite a direct buyer than to directly admonish the emperor.

If this happened in the Tang and Ming dynasties, it might not happen, but if it was in the Great Song Dynasty, it was really possible.

This group of officials in the Great Song Dynasty is not only ruthless to others, but even more ruthless to themselves...... Willing to dare to pull the emperor off the horse!
