Chapter 3 A New Situation
The wind blows well, the weather in spring is fragrant with birds and flowers, and the spring breeze is almost proud, as if forgetting the pain of war, and the business of the capital has returned to prosperity.
Zhuang Xun also started a new imperial examination to select more talents, nominally a vassal state of the Yu State, but in fact it was already a semi-independent kingdom.
The new law is good for ordinary people, and many people are aware of this through propaganda, and there is less and less resistance.
Probably it is also Zhuang Xun's sharp sword, kill the people who resist, and give the meritorious soldiers land, and by the way, complete the feat of the gentry to pay food in one piece.
This is all discussed by Zhuang Xun according to his half-hung historical knowledge and Si Qinmi, there is no problem for Jiannan to implement it, and there is no problem with the heads of the three killings in the east, there are many people, you don't want to be the master, some people want to be the master, there are so many children of the poor family, you don't want to fill the grassroots, then change people.
There are four realms in the south, what can you do in the face of this situation, don't you still have to swallow your anger?
The family hated itchy, and they couldn't wait for Zhuang Xun to fall, the problem is that Zhuang Xun now has someone who is rich, and the external environment is very good, thank you again Nie Jin for killing the big family in China, because these people rarely support him and have connections with other princes.
Nie Jin made them disappear physically, the bad guy Nie Jin did it, Zhuang Xun did it even more, beating the small family that still existed, these people hated him to the bone, and cursed him every day for a short life and early death.
It was found that it was a rebellion, and the property was confiscated, but the trial still had to be done well, either deliberately suppressed, or with real evidence, encouraging mutual reporting, in this case, the families did not dare to contact by letter, and they did not speak out for a while.
If you don't speak out, you have no opinion, and in this situation, develop commerce, encourage agriculture, temper the army, and quickly heal the wounds of war.
Si Qinmi is also in this situation, and her talent can be fully embodied, and she can wantonly dismantle the political alliance of the courtiers.
In addition, Zhuang Xun is basically in the last dynasty, what does the queen think, after a long time, everyone knows that Zhuang Xun listens to Siqin Mi's words.
So she privately criticized that there were two suns in the sky, and the reform policies were all led by Si Qinmi, and she became notorious.
Someone dared to write to Zhuang Xun and talk about Siqin Mi's bad place, but the result was that he was not good, and Zhuang Xun was not used to it.
You demons and monsters also want to separate me from my kissing lady? It's just overwhelming.
Although Zhuang Xun is not a fan of the Three Kingdoms, he can remember every plot of the Three Kingdoms, he has learned deeply to a point, he can be used for life, he can be a waste, but he is not a waste that drags people back.
You can be a bastard in the battle, let the big brother lead you to win, then don't always think that you are strong, make trouble for the big brother, and just assist the big brother.
Obviously, Siqin Mi has a high level of governance, he doesn't know how many orders of magnitude, he is a half-bucket water traverser, what qualifications does he have to point fingers at Si Qin Mi.
When encountering something that is contrary to common sense or something that he thinks is problematic, discuss it with both parties, how to make sense and how to implement it, and trust Siqin Mi completely for what he doesn't understand, which is better than commanding blindly.
The stinky problem of the traverser, the first fifty people have not been managed, after the crossing of the great empire that manages tens of millions of people like an arm, the front of the crossing of the back of the teacher table is difficult, after the crossing suddenly remembered all the articles that I had learned, per capita Chinese language and literature graduates.
Zhuang Xun doesn't have so many benefits, remember is remember, if you don't remember, you don't remember, if you don't have experience, you will hand it over to the experienced, and learn by yourself, so as not to make it happen to Siqin Mi if she gets sick, and you can't do it yourself.
Although it is the two saints in the court, it seems that the two bodies are of one mind, and the two sides did not give anyone a chance to exploit loopholes in the court, which made people with a heart sad, so they could only spread some rumors, saying that the queen held King Xia You hostage, and the woman interfered in politics.
The rumor of the king's family has always been popular, but Zhuang Xun's sword and sword killing demon beast in front of him exists, and it is not convincing, how can Zhuang Xun, who can kill a demon king, be manipulated by a woman, it can only be said that Zhuang Xun really trusts the queen.
The previous deeds of the two were dug deeply, and the love was deep, and there were no black spots, but Zhuang Xun did bear the label of fear of guilt, because everything was what the queen thought.
So Si Qinmi laughed at Zhuang Xun with the information he got today, and when he saw the rumors in the market, Zhuang Xun was afraid of the rumors, and handed it to Zhuang Xun on the left side of the chessboard.
Zhuang Xun, who was dressed in regular clothes, looked at the paper handed over, and listened to Si Qinmi: "They said that Lang Jun, you are afraid of your concubines." ”
"Nonsense, afraid that you can hold your hand every day?" Zhuang inquired about the son, look at Siqin Mi, who is also commonly served, the beauty is dignified today, and there is a kind of demure beauty.
"I know, your chess skills are really, you haven't grown for so long." Jade held the white chess in his hand, and the situation was fixed, completely crushing the momentum of the black chess.
"Ah, I'm going to lose again, it's not that I don't want to grow, it's that I can't count you, and I'm confused when I count it."
Zhuang Xun also came to this world to learn chess, and the set is only recently clear, he prefers to read books on weekdays, and he only plays chess when he is with Siqin Mi or with Xuannu.
"Sophistry, forget it, do you want to do it again?" Siqin Mi didn't expose Zhuang Xun, she just wanted to have fun with herself.
"Come on......" Tidy up the chessboard, Zhuang Xun agreed.
"Finally, the concubine is going to rest, Lang Jun, you should go to find Sister Li, she will return to the palace in the afternoon." Put the white chess pieces away, and Siqin Mi motioned to Zhuang to ask for a shot.
"It's hard, in order to attack Yu Kingdom, both of you have bothered, and I don't know how long the old emperor can last, I recently heard that he is bedridden again." Zhuang Xun fell into the sunspot, and said that the focus of the current strategy is in the direction of Yu Guo.
"What's so hard, the concubine thinks that Sister Tan can only study a day, and she can't do things very hard, she is also hard, she learns to do everything, and she is more diligent than the palace maid."
Stupid women do everything possible to discredit their competitors, and smart people maintain the image of good people in the eyes of everyone.
"Maybe you and Ji'er's performance is too eye-catching, she has low self-esteem." Zhuang Xun rubbed the chess pieces and said that he could understand the mood of the little girl, and the other party didn't want to be a bastard.
"You're not going to comfort her?" Siqin Mi mentioned that managing the harmony of the harem is also the responsibility of her main palace.
"Comforted, she put Lone to shame, because she is motivated and Lonely enjoys." Zhuang Xun covered his cheeks with his sleeves and said embarrassedly.
"Ah, Sister Tan's relationship is not so weak, and she can still blame Lang Jun." Siqin Mi frowned, it was time to intervene, and his own Langjun could only be spoiled.
"It's not what you think, it's self-shame, for example, if there are studious people in a school, other students will feel ashamed, they are not so studious, they are lonely and other students, you are not good at learning, and you want to prevent others from learning and progressing, and being a person?"
Zhuang Xun combined his own experience on the earth, and deeply understood how bad it was for people who hindered others from progressing, and he couldn't do it.
"Okay, the concubine understands, just don't take you to the top, the concubine is afraid that you will be tired." Siqin Mi said after being amused by Zhuang Xun's analogy.
"Knowing your catties, let's talk about Yu Guo, how is the situation, Gu is really worried that Emperor Yu is gone, we have only been recuperating here for more than half a year, and the time is too short I don't know if we can participate in the battle for the throne of Yu State." Zhuang Xun promised Siqin Mi not to roll in, mentioning another issue he was worried about.
"If you can't do it, you can't let go of the opportunity to fight for the world, miss this time, and I don't know when it will be next time, maybe there will be no chance, just like the Youjun army in the north doesn't surrender, we can still pull, force back into the country, and get the three roads of the west from the Zhao country, and rule the entire Youguo together, there is no such entanglement as now, but the timing is not good."
Si Qinmi dropped the chess pieces, and sighed that there was no time to wait, and there was also a sense of greed and lack of greed, but if you miss it, you miss it.
"So I still hope that the old emperor will last a little longer, give us the opportunity to prepare, and keep swallowing elephants, and if you don't digest it, you will eat a bad stomach." The general trend of the country, Si Qinmi is willing to share with Zhuang Xun, and the two sides discuss with each other.
"Yes, I hope that the emperor will hold out at least until next autumn, so that the existing foundation will be basically consolidated, and the feedback generated by the reform can also enter the treasury.
Si Qinmi also prayed that the later King Yu died, the more beneficial it would be for them, but unfortunately King Yu's control of the court became more and more weak, if this idea had occurred five or six years earlier, it might be very different, and now the power that has been divided, the difficulty of wanting to recover it does not need to be considered, and King Yu is still in his twilight years.
"In this year's imperial examination, these new contents have been added to the count, I don't know how these scholars are doing." After talking about Yu Guo, he returned to the government affairs of his country.
"Look, I hope they can produce some talents, it's too slow to cultivate slowly." Zhuang Xun looked forward to saying that while killing people, he gathered talents, fortunately, the world is so big and there are so many people, but it's okay.
Chatting about the operation of the country and the chess game in the middle game, this time Siqin Mi kept his hand and deliberately made a few wrong moves, delaying for a longer time.
"Your Highness, Niangniang, there is an urgent military situation." The attendant sent a letter, and the messenger sent information.
Zhuang Xun took his hand first, glanced at the whole person stunned, a little surprised, handed the letter to Si Qinmi, and said in disbelief: "Zhao Guo attacked the western border, Chengguo was defeated and retreated, and without making any resistance, he withdrew from the western border." ”
Si Qinmi took the letter that Zhuang Xun had opened, and her eyebrows slowly tightened, thinking about Zhao Guo's purpose, Chengguo's response, and so on.
"How dare they? Aren't you afraid of the two countries of Jing and Zheng? Si Qinmi could immediately think of the two countries that contained Zhao State, and Zhao State attacked Jizhou like this, and they all acquiesced?
"It should have been coordinated, Zhao's country is not close to Jizhou, even if there is gallop transportation, the army that is requisitioned to attack Chengguo, the time to turn back and forth is enough for Jing Zheng Erguo to attack, what is wrong with Jing Zheng Erguo!"
Zhuang Xun was not sure that the three kingdoms of Zheng Jing Zhao, the king of the Central Plains, contained each other, Zhuang Xun and them were like Beidi, and it was important to eliminate Beidi, but this was also necessary for the other two countries to have internal problems, so they dared to do this
"I haven't received any information for the time being, even the reoccupation of the western border by the Zhao State feels very strange, the Cheng army does not have any decent resistance, the western border is a grain-producing area, is it easy to give up like this?"
Si Qin Mi felt more and more anxious about intelligence, and it was a pity that the intelligence network of Youguo was not inherited, and he re-ordered He Jun and Yao Zongwen to unify the foreign affairs work of intelligence, and at the same time to kill demons was also to collect all kinds of information, but at present, it is indeed strangling the remnants of the demon clan and stabilizing the domestic situation, the second establishment time is too short, the organizational structure is immature, and there is a lag in external news at present.
"Do you want to let Yu Guo's inspection office command Shen Lianzhen send some people over to give some guidance?" Zhuang Xun sensed Si Qinmi's worries, so he suggested.
"This kind of thing can't be borrowed from manpower, if the inspection department has already taken refuge in a certain prince Yu, my loss will be great."
Si Qinmi immediately objected, but he couldn't believe it, the current ecology of Yu Country was too complicated, several forces were criss-crossed, except for the territory in hand, Si Qinmi couldn't believe anything, and the probability of internal ghosts was too great.
"Okay, but what's going on, is Zhao Guo coming to sweep Jizhou?" Siqin Mi said that there were stakes, and Zhuang Xun no longer insisted, guessing Zhao Guo's purpose.
"It's impossible, we will be in a group with Chengguo, it's a hard bone, it's not so easy to gnaw, it's almost the same for her to carry out a discord, after all, if Zhao Guo is the rear, it doesn't pose any threat to it."
Si Qinmi said casually, and then the whole person was stunned, and Liu Ye's eyes narrowed, dangerous like a poisonous snake.
"Lady, what's wrong." Zhuang Xun saw that Si Qinmi didn't speak for a long time, and looked at her worriedly for a long time before waking her up.
"The concubine is thinking, maybe the purpose of the Zhao State is to divide us." Siqin Mi also thought about it, and when she saw that the ability of Wei Zhi was activated again, she had this idea in her mind, and immediately had a whole set of related plans.
"Huh?" Zhuang Xun wanted to know how Siqin Mi came to this conclusion.
"The concubine said just now, we and Chengguo can unite and even pose a threat to Zhao Guo, the last one that can pose a threat to Zhao Guo is Youguo, think about how Zhao Guo is preparing to deal with Youguo."
Si Qinmi sneered and said, Zhuang Xun also thought of the situation where Xuannu found himself to jointly attack Youguo, and strangled him with all his might, and the death of Youwang was not unjust at all.
"Are they going to deal with us? We shouldn't be enough for him, we can't beat him. Zhuang Xun said out of the actual situation.
"If the threat of force is the same, it will only make us and Chengguo get closer and closer, and they don't have the so-called force, they want to play tricks, and now they just haven't figured it out, why Chengguo wants to let Zhao Guo, unless they really have force, this can't be said, there is force to draw out, and it is ...... to sweep Jizhou"
Si Qinmi said along this line of thought, but the key puzzle is still one line away.
"Your Highness, Mrs. Jiang asks to see you."
