The autumn wind is gradually rising, and in the gloomy scene, it is reflected in the fruitful results.

This is a harvest season, the Central Plains is vast, countless grains have been made into food, and generations of Central Plains people have been raised.

The nobles also had to eat grain, but their favorite thing was meat.

Freshly slaughtered lambs, selected from the finest meat, stewed with turnips, the soup is delicious and rich, and then served with roast lamb......

Pick up a piece of good lamb leg meat, just put it in your mouth and gently sip it, the meat piece will be soft instantly, just gently sip your mouth.

The stewed lamb leg meat is fragrant and tender, and the taste is excellent.

Zhao Zhen took a sip of wine, and then sandwiched another slice of roast mutton.

The lamb was roasted at just the right temperature, and there was some fat on the outside, and the fat burst in the mouth as soon as it entered the mouth...... This is still made by the chef Qin Wei has personally taught.

I have to say that this person's understanding of food is even greater than that of him as an official.

Zhao Zhen squinted slightly, slowly savored the deliciousness of roast mutton, then shook his head and praised: "The most beautiful person in the world is nothing more than this." ”

The royal family's favorite food is lamb, and so do the powerful.

After all, it is illegal to slaughter ploughing cattle in these years, if you dare to shout 'Xiao Er, two catties of beef' in a certain restaurant! In the next second, the official can put you in prison!

Therefore, the trade is very enthusiastic, and the Great Song Dynasty trades a lot of cattle and sheep from the Liao State every year, if not, the Liao people are afraid that there will be a trade bottleneck.

There are many good things in the Song Kingdom, and when they can't beat them, they can only barter for things.

The Liao people could not make the Great Song Dynasty look at many goods, just cattle, sheep and horses. They naturally refused to sell the horses, but the cattle and sheep didn't matter.

This is also why the two countries can get back together after a fight, after all, each has its own needs.

After eating a meal, Zhao Zhen's forehead was sweaty.

He took the towel and wiped his face, then his hands in reverse.

Xu Mao was waiting on the side, and when he saw that he was comfortable, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, that Qin Wei is becoming more and more aggressive now, and he actually went to take revenge on those people......"

"Revenge?"

Isn't this the end of the story?

The gifts given by the magnates were arranged to be sent to Futian Courtyard, the court gained fame, Qin was wronged, and the magnates lost their wives and soldiers.

Isn't that enough?

Zhao Zhen got up and walked out, guessing in his heart how Qin Wei would retaliate against them.

It's good to want to take revenge, those people in the province have nothing to do every day, and they will come to sue.

Zhao Zhen's foundation is unstable now, and the support of these people is very important, if it weren't for this, he would have boiled these people a long time ago.

Xu Mao followed behind and said, "There is a word outside...... said that as long as he Qin Wei was in the national prison for a day, those powerful children would not want to go to school again. ”

Zhao Zhen was not moved in the slightest, just slowly paced to eat, and said with a faint smile: "Those people are probably so angry that they are going to die, right?" ”

Xu Mao laughed and said, "It's really annoying, but they are going to return home, and it is estimated that they will not dare to make a move at this time, but ...... Someone once drank too much and said that he was going to take Qin Wei's head......"

This is a bit excessive, and after drinking, he brags.

As everyone knows, once any words are excessive, they will be used as a handle.

But Zhao Zhen didn't get angry, just laughed and said: "If they can really do it, I still look up to them." The Great Song Dynasty has reached the point where it is now, and it must change in order to prosper, these people ...... I don't want them to do something for the country, but if they can live in peace and give me less trouble, I will be satisfied. ”

"As for the Guozijian...... Since I used Qin Wei, and he didn't disappoint me, I can't interfere in this matter, although they have the ability, but Guozijian is a place where the Great Song Dynasty cultivates talents, if they want to dominate, then don't blame me for turning his face! ”

Zhao Zhen went to the back with his hand, probably a concubine tonight.

Queen Guo recently gave birth, but she is just a daughter......

Despite this, Zhao Zhen is still very happy, after all, being a first-time parent, don't care about men and women, as long as you are sure that it is your own, it is worth being happy.

Anyway, he is still young, and there are a lot more concubines in the harem, as long as he is willing to work hard, there will always be gains.

Xu Mao's heart moved, and he carefully pondered what he said later.

——Guozijian is a place where the Great Song Dynasty cultivates talents......

But are the children of the powerful talented?

This is unfair, but there is some truth in it.

Most of those powerful people are gentlemen, even if there are a few who can become talents, but the talents who grow up in that environment, God knows what they have in their arms.

……

"They are all fierce and inward-looking, and they don't dare to do anything, so there is no need to be afraid of ......"

Pang Shiying is now about to become a frequent visitor to the Qin family, and he will always come to the door for various reasons.

Qin Wei was very tired of it, but there was no way.

After all, it's their own students......

Moreover, the old man of Pang Ji begged many times, let him teach his son more, and let him bow his head and beg, which is not easy!

If Qin Wei refused, the old man would definitely hold a grudge.

Hey, why bother...... I can't teach your son!

Qin Wei Ling Ran said: "The source of the Great Song Dynasty's weakness comes from this ......"

The destruction of a dynasty is mostly caused by poverty and weakness, and there are many reasons, either the emperor is mediocre, or the traitor is rampant but lawless.

The Great Song Dynasty was not poor but weak.

It's ridiculous and can't help it......

You say he's weak, he's richer than anyone else, you say he's strong, no one can beat him, and even the miscellaneous fish like Jiaozhi dare to jump his feet.

Because why - three redundancies!

Qin Wei got up and paced back and forth in the room, and said solemnly: "Redundant officials! There are so many shade supplements, and there are new ...... that are constantly being collected every year Most of these people are not talents, but maggots from the tarsal bones that suck the bone marrow of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

He looked at Pang Shiying meaningfully and said, "This shadow supplement starts with Zaifu...... Every year, a large number of positions are distributed, and some of them are not even clear about the official authority, so they are born in a grand manner, and then a lot of financial and material resources are consumed...... What do you think about this? ”

Qin Wei actually asked Pang Shiying to answer this question......

This is an intention to train him!

Zhao Yunrang's eyes had more meaning of the school examination, and then listened quietly.

This question is very acute, Pang Shiying thought for a while, "There are more scholars in the imperial examination, even far more than many dynasties in the comprehensive field." As for the shade supplement...... Everywhere it is to be appeased, and everywhere it is to be rewarded...... The court is afraid that they will not obey the rules, but sooner or later they will be dragged down by these people! ”

What can a dynasty that shares the world with scholars and doctors do?

Since it is shared, then everyone has the benefits to naturally share equally, your family has the imperial power, and has the greatest rights, so we people also have to drink soup, right?

So everyone is still rich and noble for ten thousand years, the simplest and rude way is to make up for it, the children and grandchildren are officials, rich and status, although there is not much real power, but everyone is at least stable.

But if it goes on like this, it's chronic suicide.

No matter how successful a country's economic and military reforms are, as long as the internal attrition is too great, then everything will be scattered at the slightest touch.

Pang Shiying's opinion made Qin Wei a little relieved.

These future successors of the Great Song Dynasty have at least not been poisoned, and they still have eyes that look down on the state of affairs.

"Lord Qin, Your Majesty summons you."

Zhao Zhen probably couldn't see Qin Wei moldy at home, and always wanted to find something for him to do from time to time.

When I got to the palace, I saw a group of courtiers chattering.

“…… Then Li Deming actually sent troops, could it be that the previous counterattacks of the Great Song Dynasty angered him? What should I do? ”

"An army of 100,000! Fuzhou may be in the way? Most of them can't be stopped, so they have to send reinforcements quickly. ”

"Yes! The Western Xia side has always been doing well, why has it become so radical in recent years? What do they want to do? ”

"Qin Wei is here."

I don't know who muttered quietly.

The ministers stopped talking to each other, and looked at Qin Wei who came in, as if waiting for the male protagonist to appear.

What's going on here?

Qin Wei was stared at by these people, and he only felt hairy all over his body, and he was not comfortable at all.

"Li Deming has sent troops."

Zhao Zhen sat on it, holding his forehead with his hands and worried, he succeeded to the throne until now, this is the first time that a foreign country has used troops against the Great Song Dynasty on a large scale.

He's inexperienced!

Qin Wei's heart froze, and he couldn't help frowning, this is not right!

According to the timeline of normal history, the Western Xia people should be very honest now, after all, Li Yuanhao is about to succeed him, and then he will establish a country.

At this juncture, Xixia should not make any big moves, and even have to endure as much as possible, so as not to cause extraneous branches.

The two bigwigs of Western Xia are also at the time of the alternation, what are they doing at this time?

Zhao Zhen let go of his hand and said: "The officials on the other side of the ceremonial room said that the envoys of Western Xia have been very peaceful recently, and they haven't even come out of the door, obviously they are not premeditated to send troops......

Qin Wei nodded, and then asked, "Your Majesty, did the minister just hear that it was 100,000?" ”

Zhao Zhen nodded, and there was a sad look between his eyebrows, "It is said that it is known as an army of 100,000, but in the barren land of Western Xia, it is not easy to replenish the source of soldiers, even if there are no 100,000 people, there will always be 50,000." ”

"Why is there no urgent report in Fuzhou?"

Zhang Zhibai was a little annoyed, and felt that Zhi Jimin was a little arrogant.

"This report is from Hedong, and there is no news from Fuzhou......"

Lu Yijian said annoyedly: "Who is the one from the Fuzhou Military Horse Division...... Qiu Shuxuan? What about him? Why didn't you send someone to tell you...... Isn't it possible to forget the rules? ”

In case of war, it is necessary to report to the central government in advance, and the local army can resist it, but it cannot take the initiative to attack.

Therefore, this requires the timeliness of the war report, in a word, it must not be delayed!

But Ji Min and Qiu Shuxuan didn't report it, and they didn't even send the news back, if it weren't for the military report of the Hedong Military Division, the court wouldn't even know what happened at this time.

After the last big victory, Qiu Shuxuan is said to have changed a lot, and he has started acting in military affairs.

But no matter how you change, you can't wear a pair of pants with the folded family!
