318: There is no bottom line for a strong country
The reason why Qin Wei's cash-for-work last time was able to go smoothly was just because of the slow response of the elites.
If you want to do it again, it's not easy.
Those people do not lack fame and fortune, let alone power, they have no lofty ideals, so they are relieved to be rice worms that corrode the Great Song Dynasty.
Now that someone wants to take the 'rice' away from them, they will naturally not wait for death.
However, with Zhao Yuanyan's move, even if those powerful people are powerful, they will always be bigger than Dingwangfu, right?
As long as the Dingwang Mansion did not fall, they easily did not dare to refuse Zhao Yuanyan's request.
Then it's a complete thing.
In the future, in a disaster year, as long as Zhao Zhen takes out the example of Zhao Yuanyan, those magnates will have to obediently hand over the land and cooperate with the court to resettle the victims.
This is the thief who captures the king first!
Surprises and surprises don't always come first.
Qin Wei smiled, he just wanted to disgust Zhao Yuanyan, who knew that this surprise gift package would be so luxurious.
Zhao Zhen didn't expect Zhao Yuanyan to be so decisive.
It can be seen that this person is definitely not easy to deal with.
He gradually calmed down his anger, and after being silent for a while, he said coldly: "King Zhao Yuan has no mouth to hide, and he will be punished for one year!" Grounded for three months...... Go home and reflect! ”
……
At the end of the episode, Zhao Yuanyan was driven out of the hall in a gray manner.
The emperor and his ministers began to deliberate, but Qin Wei began to wander outside the realm again.
Zhao Zhen glanced at him without leaving a trace, thinking that this person was napping again......
But he was in a good mood at this time, after all, he solved a big trouble all of a sudden, and even the work-for-relief thing ended smoothly, and all of this was thanks to Qin Wei.
If he hadn't provoked Zhao Yuanyan to speak incoherently, he wouldn't have dared to say those words if he killed Zhao Yuanyan.
Fortunately, with him, Zhao Zhen even had a feeling of luck.
Ay!
It's just that Qin Wei can't stop the torrent in the court after all, so he will be bound by those tiger-wolf courtiers if he wants to let go of his hands and feet.
Does such an emperor really deserve to be comfortable?
No emperor is an emperor with a passable mentality, even if it is a faint monarch or a tyrant, he will have the ideal of wanting to make great efforts.
It's just that the reality is very cruel, and the kings of the past generations have lost something while they have gained supreme honor.
Courtiers, magnates, gatekeepers, clansmen, royal ...... This layer of tests and obstacles made many emperors become puppets of imperial power after they ascended the throne.
Zhao Zhen is not a puppet, after all, Renzong's temple number is not called in vain.
He's just too indecisive and timid about a lot of things...... To put it bluntly, it lacks the courage of the Qin Emperor and Han Wu to look down on the world.
Otherwise, Fan Zhongyan's reform would not have ended in nothing, and this Great Song Dynasty would have changed his appearance a long time ago.
Zhao Zhen was a little lost, he glanced at the Zai Fu again, and felt a little more comfort in his heart.
Zhang Zhibai and others can be regarded as rare loyal ministers, although they have some political disagreements, but in the face of major rights and wrongs, no one flinched.
Zhao Zhen has to admire his mother, in terms of selecting people, Liu E has really achieved a discerning eye.
Whether it is Fan Zhongyan or Yan Shu later...... is still the current Zhang Zhibai and Wang Yaochen.
Liu E's selection of people may be selfish, but these people are also capable ministers who can really do things for the Great Song Dynasty!
And the follow-up talents that belong to him, Zhao Zhen is also working hard to cultivate.
For example, Qin Wei, as well as the young courtiers Zong Sheng, Fu Bi and others whom he recommended, also began to gradually show their talents.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but have a headache.
These people selected by Qin Weixuan are indeed very talented, even if Zong Sheng, who often sneaks around and pats horses, is also a good hand in the governance of officials, otherwise the bureau would not be so stable.
Fu Bi is the leader of the younger generation.
But these people were all pulled up by Qin Wei.
If it's that day...... Will Qin Wei become the next Ding Wei?
Good steel needs fire, and it will be seen for a long time!
Who can guarantee that once Qin Wei, who is not good at fame and fortune now, becomes Zaifu, he will not go against his original philosophy.
The emperor is like this, the more trusted, the more suspicious...... The more he gives you rights, the more he has to find ways to imprison you by all means.
Zhao Zhen thought in his heart, and the whole person fell silent.
The Zaisuke, who were discussing below, didn't know what was wrong with him, so they stopped. After all, the emperor's attitude will directly affect their choice.
Zhao Zhen came back to his senses, replaced his silence with a warm smile, and the discussion continued.
The discussion ended later.
Zhao Zhen looked over and couldn't help but smile bitterly, such a lazy person, will he become the next Ding Wei? I'm afraid it's difficult......
If you want to be a minister, you must first know how to be motivated and seize power, right?
But look at him, all the haras are flowing out.
The Zaisukes followed his gaze and then smiled.
Qin Wei actually stood there and fell asleep.
And this person is a habitual offender at first glance, and he can keep his body upright and his head tilted back, and those who don't know think he is thinking about life.
It's just a little bit of the head.
"Ahem!"
Wang Zhen's old face turned red, and he felt that his son was ugly, and the old father was also embarrassed.
"Finished?"
Wang Zhen's voice was too recognizable, and the deep coughing sound made Qin Wei's body shake, and then suddenly woke up.
His first sentence was this, and Wang Zhen was so angry that his nostrils smoked.
If it weren't for Zhao Zhen and Zai Fu being present, his ear scraping would have been pumped over.
Qin Wei subconsciously shrunk his neck and stood there awkwardly.
Zhao Zhen was not angry, just shook his head and smiled, waved his hand and said: "Let's say, the Xixia side has stopped fighting, saying that it was a misunderstanding, and sent a few cattle and sheep baggage, saying that it was an apology...... What about you? What are the insights? ”
This is said very casually, not like the emperor is asking about the political affairs of his courtiers, but there is a kind of friends of the same age chatting.
Your Majesty's favor for this kid is rare in the world!
Zhang Zhibai shook his head secretly in his heart, and said with a smile: "In the past, Xixia never took the initiative to admit mistakes, it seems that after Li Yuanhao broke the halberd Baisheng Village last time, the Xixia people knew that it hurt." ”
This is to remind Qin Wei not to be rash.
Since the Western Xia took the initiative to admit that it was wrong, the Great Song Dynasty should not be too strong, it was originally a place where the three kingdoms were staggered, and if it caused a major war, the Liao people would definitely take advantage of the fire to rob.
It's still cowardly!
In the first battle of the Great Song Dynasty, the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty were about to become frightened birds.
Even a strong Zai Fu like Zhang Zhibai didn't dare to talk about war easily, did he have to wait until the situation of the Three Kingdoms to be forced to make a move?
But when that time comes, Da Song will only be more passive.
Since people dare to establish a country, then they are ready for everything, how can you stop it if you want to.
Qin Wei smacked his lips and said lightly: "Xiaguan also thinks that it is not easy to dispatch a large army at present, first, the Liao State in the north needs to be guarded, and second, the place in the northwest is barren, if there is a war, it must be a decisive result!" Completely wipe out Western Xia from this place! If not, it's just a plain attrition......"
Zhang Zhibai nodded, appreciating Qin Wei's attitude.
Anyone can say a word about the issue of Western Xia, but there are not many people like Qin Wei who judge the situation and say the key point in one sentence.
But without waiting for the Zaifu to speak, Qin Wei said again: "Your Majesty, Western Xia is now testing the bottom line of the Great Song Dynasty......"
"The bottom line?"
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "Western Xia is the time when the old and the new are replaced, they shouldn't ask for trouble." ”
At this moment, Li Deming is busy passing on the throne to his son Li Yuanhao, and Li Yuanhao is busy consolidating his rights.
In order to protect itself, Western Xia sent a small force to probe the attitude of the Song and Liao countries.
This is understandable.
After all, Western Xia was not Song or Liao, and there was no strong strength to guarantee that the surrounding countries would not invade it.
Therefore, the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty all thought that it was not a big problem.
"Your Majesty, the Tangut wolves are ambitious and greedy, and last year they invaded the border to consolidate the rights of their heirs, and this year? What about later? Is it that once Western Xia makes any moves, the Great Song Dynasty will become the object of their temptation? Your Majesty, the reason why a strong country is strong is because no one dares to be tempted, and a strong country has no bottom line! ”
Zhang Zhibai felt that Qin Wei's reaction was a little too much, and he said: "Li Deming is not a belligerent lord, he doesn't have the courage to really start a war with the Great Song Dynasty. Your idea is reasonable, but it doesn't fit. ”
Your worries are justified, and a young man who understands that he is prepared for danger in times of peace is already a qualified politician
But I'm sorry, your remarks are full of personal speculation, not to mention whether this is possible or not, even if it does, your current proposal is not appropriate.
It's like someone has just come out with a pair of juniors, and you have to throw the king fried.
You're gambling...... And the most taboo thing about gambling is impulsiveness.
He bowed slightly to Qin Wei with the elder's gaze as a sign of encouragement.
But Qin Wei was furious all of a sudden.
"Xixia said in the message that it was because of the escape from the border that he had to skip the border...... Isn't this nonsense? Even if there were really any escapees into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, the Western Xia should first inform the border defense army, and then take the lead in arresting people from the Great Song Dynasty, instead of directly leading the troops to invade our border people! What does that mean? This is a temptation and a provocation! ”
The angry Qin Wei was a little funny in the eyes of the monarch and ministers.
This young man is good at everything, but he is too axial, and he will not let go of the things he recognizes, and he will not be tactful at all.
Zhao Zhen also felt that Qin Wei was making a big fuss, but he still didn't interrupt for the sake of face, and only waited for Qin Wei to finish speaking, and then said, "That's it...... Let them be on guard! ”
It was also a compromise, but it was well-intentioned and not mixed with disputes.
Zhang Zhibai glanced at Qin Wei and thought to himself, you should be satisfied now, right? Your Majesty has been so gracious to you! Even the old man's face has to be refuted.
But as soon as Qin Wei opened his mouth, he stumped him.
"Zhang Xiang, although it is not appropriate to go to war, reinforcements are always possible, right? Let the minister lead 20,000 troops to aid the northwest, if the Western Xia dares to cross the border again, the minister will definitely have no return! ”
Zhang Zhibai finally couldn't help but roll his eyes, and then the monarchs and ministers were happy.
You say that if you send troops, you will send troops, do you know how much it costs to go back and forth?
The country is now eager to spend a penny in half, and the construction of this country is still stretched, how can you have the money to go out to waste.
"If you can't be defeated in a battle, the Great Song Dynasty will be a waste of money and labor."
Qin Wei was stunned for a moment, bowed down and said, "Thank you Zhang Xiang for your advice, the lower official is wrong." ”
His posture made people feel comfortable at once.
Zhao Zhen bowed slightly, and Lu Yijian looked at this scene with a smile, feeling that this was a rare atmosphere of harmony.
It's just that after Qin Wei thanked him, he suddenly changed his words: "Your Majesty, the minister proposes to transfer some firearms to Fuzhou, and Ji Min has seen the power of firearms, and he can make the best use of these killing weapons." ”
This one......
Zhang Zhibai suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Qin Wei with resentment.
I'm afraid that your kid is proposing to go to war is fake, and you want to transfer gunpowder to the side, right?
What a treacherous and cunning little fox.
