"Your county magistrate ......"

Han Shizhong's words came to his lips and swallowed them back again.

Liu Qi waved his hand: "It's okay, just the three of us here, if you have something to say." Every time I was beaten, I always scolded him behind my back. ”

"Hey, hey."

Wu Jue was immediately happy, only to feel that Liu Qi was very good, and he was a bold man with a true temperament.

"I thought I was brave enough, until I met your county magistrate, I didn't know that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are heavens outside the sky." Han Shizhong sighed.

Liu Qi comforted: "The county magistrate of my family is not a person, there is no need to compare with him." ”

This is not a scolding, but a serious praise of Han Zhen.

He grew up in the border army, went in and out of the barracks as a child, and witnessed his father fighting against the Tanguts countless times.

Whether it is the Western Army or the fierce generals of the Western Xia people, none of them can compare with Han Zhen.

Shoes don't deserve it.

"It's really not human!"

Wu Jue sighed.

Today's kick, if he hadn't reacted quickly, blocked him with his arms, and had the unloading force of the soft haystack, I am afraid he would have kicked himself to death.

"The county magistrate actually doesn't know kung fu, and he relies on brute strength. If he had been practicing martial arts since childhood like us, and he had the guidance of a famous teacher, tsk, I wouldn't dare to think about it. ”

Liu Qi's words shocked Han Shizhong and Wu Jue.

Hiss!

The two of them only thought about it for a moment, and then gasped.

After a moment of silence, Han Shizhong opened his mouth and asked, "Is your father General Liu Zhongwu?" ”

"That's right."

Liu Qi generously admitted, and chuckled: "I want to ask why I want to be a thief?" ”

Wu Jue nodded hurriedly and looked at him expectantly.

"I just can't get used to Tong Guan's dog thief and the dog emperor."

Liu Qi snorted coldly and said angrily: "My father has guarded the border army for many years and has made a lot of great achievements, but as a result, Tong Guan, the dog thief, not only robbed the credit, but also secretly suppressed the stumbling block. In the fifth year of Zhenghe, the battle of the ancient bone dragon, my father led an army of 50,000 and was ordered to garrison the Qingshui River, and resisted the 120,000 army of Western Xia for a month. ”

Hearing this, Han Shizhong said angrily to the enemy: "Tong Guan, this dog thief, really deserves to die!" ”

He hates Tong Guan, but he is no less than Liu Qi.

Not long after he joined the Western Army, when he attacked Yinzhou, he made several achievements in taking the lead and cutting generals.

The strategy department reported his merits to the imperial court and asked for an exceptional promotion of Han Shizhong, but the coach Tong Guan denied Han Shizhong's merits with a sentence of 'Xiao Xiao An can make his merits', and only promoted him by one level, and those credits were naturally pressed by Tong Guan on Xin Xingzong's body.

A few years ago, when he went south to conquer Fang La, Xin Xingzong snatched Fang La in front of him.

"Now that Tong Guan is stationed in the Daimyo's Mansion, sooner or later I will cut off his dog's head with my own hands!"

Liu Qi said hatefully, and then his voice changed, and he continued to scold: "Tong Guan's gelding dog deserves to die, and the dog emperor of Zhao Song is not a good thing, knowing Tong Guan's temperament, he even connived at his bullying and oppression of generals, snatching military merits, and being so stupid that he deserves to destroy the country!" ”

Good scolding!

Wu Jue applauded in his heart, but he was not easy to echo on his face.

Seeing this, Liu Qi said disdainfully: "They are all martial artists, they can scold if they want to, and they are afraid to shrink into what kind of heroes." The two of them fought desperately, but as a result, the Dog Emperor didn't remember that there was such a person as you, how ridiculous. ”

"Look at me again, I was only sixteen years old after the New Year's Festival, and now I am the commander of the army, with 20,000 soldiers under my command. When fighting, he fought as much as he wanted, and the county magistrate never intervened, nor did he have civilian guidance. ”

Hearing this, a trace of envy flashed in the eyes of Han Shizhong and Wu Jue.

I have to say that such a general is comfortable in front of him.

"It's getting late, and it's time for me to go back."

Seeing that the heat was almost over, Liu Qi patted his ass and stood up, and went straight out of the prisoner of war camp.

Such things as persuasion should not be carried out in a hurry, otherwise it will be too obvious.

Especially Han Shizhong and Wu Jue, they are both people with strong temperaments.

With Song Huizong's assist, the seeds have been planted, as long as they are watered frequently, it will not take long to take root and sprout.

Looking at Liu Qi's departing back, Han Shizhong's expression was complicated.

……

……

After resting in Licheng County for two days, Han Zhen led the army to continue to set off and rushed to Yidu County.

Although Jinan is also prosperous and has smooth water transportation, its location is too poor and has no strategic depth, so it is not suitable as a capital.

In contrast, Qingzhou is the throat of Shandong, which can be attacked and defended.

This journey has had a great impact on Zhao Fujin.

Especially today, I encountered a group of runaways who came down from the mountains.

The fugitives' unclothed, thin bodies seemed to be able to blow through a gust of wind.

Zhao Fujin was kind-hearted and ordered someone to give the remaining half of the cooking cake to those escapees.

The scene of dozens of fugitives fighting for half a cooking cake and beating their heads and bleeding has always lingered in her mind.

Night.

Zhao Fujin stepped down from the carriage and walked into Han Zhen's main tent.

"Husband."

Zhao Fujin called softly.

Hearing this, Han Zhen stopped the government affairs in his hand, raised his head and said, "Why haven't you slept yet?" ”

"Can't sleep."

Zhao Fujin shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Those people ...... today?"

"Runaway!"

Han Zhen replied.

Zhao Fujin, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, heard this title for the first time, and his face was dazed.

Seeing this, Han Zhen explained: "People who can't afford the harsh taxes and abandon their fields and houses and flee to the mountains are the so-called fugitives. ”

Zhao Fujin was puzzled: "Can ...... But why did they flee to the mountains? ”

"There are many tigers and leopards in the mountains, and the conditions are difficult, and many of the escapees who fled to the mountains can't even survive for a year."

"Then why ......"

Han Zhen Zhengse said: "You must know that if there is a glimmer of hope to live, these people will not give up their fields and houses and run to the mountains to fight tigers and leopards. ”

These words made Zhao Fujin's face pale, and he asked sneeringly: "Is this because of my father?" ”

"It's not stupid."

Han Zhen smiled with satisfaction, and said in a deep voice: "You have lived in the deep palace for a long time, I am afraid that the farthest place you have been to is the outer city of Tokyo City, and you are not to blame for the deviation of cognition." It is undeniable that Bianjing is prosperous, but there is only one Bianjing in the world, and the prosperity of Tokyo City is supported by the hard work of the entire Song Dynasty people. ”

"The pastries and meals in the palace are delicious, and Genyue is magnificent and beautiful, but do you know that every bite of food you eat, every piece of mountain, rock, flower and grass in Genyue is stained with the blood of the people, which will cause dozens or even hundreds of people to flee into the mountains with their families and mouths!"

"In the entire land of Shandong, there are more than one million escapees, and now more than half of them are dead in the mountains. Those people who died tragically at the mouths of tigers and leopards, and froze to death in the snow and winter, all rose because of your father. ”

Han Zhen's words did not leave the slightest emotion, tore apart the truth, and presented it bloodily in front of Zhao Fujin.

Zhao Fujin only felt a churn in his stomach, and hurriedly covered his mouth, tears in his eyes.

After a long time, Zhao Fujin's mood calmed down a little, and asked with a crying voice: "Please tell the slave family truthfully, what will happen to those runaways after they go down the mountain today?" ”

Han Zhen replied: "After going down the mountain, the officials under my command will distribute paper clothes and rice grains to them, distribute fields, and rent grain seeds and farm tools. Most of the money and food I asked for from your father will be spent on these fugitives. As long as you are willing to work hard and lightly pay for your meager endowment, you will definitely not starve to death. ”

Hearing this answer, Zhao Fujin felt a little better and said a blessing: "The slave father thanked the husband." ”

Han Zhen shook his head and smiled, "I didn't do this for your father. ”

Zhao Fujin said softly: "The slave knows, but under the rule of the husband, these fugitives can finally have a good ending, and it can be regarded as removing obstacles for their father." ”

Han Zhen instructed: "It's not early, let's go and rest." ”

"The husband also rested earlier, don't burn your body."

Zhao Fujin sighed lightly, turned around and left,

Before leaving the palace, she naively thought that the world was peaceful and the people were healthy, and she didn't understand why someone always rebelled.

After planning to get married, persuade his husband not to rebel and be a good courtier.

But what she saw and heard along the way made her gradually understand.

I also know how ridiculous the original idea was.

……

February 27.

The army has finally entered the territory of Qingzhou, and it will arrive in Yidu by tomorrow evening at the latest.

This time, from the dispatch of troops to the return of the squad to the city, it took three months.

For a war, it's already quite fast.

At this time, in Yidu County, the lights are colorful, and the lively scene is far better than the New Year's Festival.

A jar of roasted liquor, a big fat pig and pig, constantly transported to the barracks, the military cooks and idle people, busy feet do not touch the ground, preparing for tomorrow's celebration banquet.

In the palace, a group of officials gathered in the lobby and were deliberating.

Chang Yukun and Xie Ding are also among them.

Zhao Ting was the first to speak: "This official proposes to choose a piece of land in the inner city, requisition the people, and build the palace as soon as possible. ”

Although in the peace talks with Zhao Song, Han Zhen promised not to build Yuan and become emperor, but everyone here knew in their hearts that it was a matter of time.

It's time to change the rules and etiquette of the past.

Hearing this, Chang Yukun shook his head and said: "The county magistrate has always been thrifty, and I am afraid that he will not agree to the construction of the palace." ”

He has been with Han Zhen the longest, so he has more right to speak.

In Chang Yukun's opinion, Han Zhen is the most pragmatic, likes to spend money on the blade, and spends millions of dollars to build a palace, and Han Zhen's character will never agree.

Zhao Ting frowned slightly: "If you don't repair the palace, it's really not in line with the etiquette system, and it's not convenient to discuss matters in the future." ”

It used to be a grass platform team, so it's okay to make do with everyone.

But now it's different, all the land of Shandong has been taken under his command, even if Han Zhen wants to make do, they, the heroes of the dragon, are not willing to do it.

And Zhao Ting didn't say nonsense, now that the territory is bigger, the number of officials has expanded dozens of times, and they are always crowded in the government, which is really inconvenient.

The government is too small, especially after the expansion of the number of officials, it is even more crowded.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Wang Weizhong had a flash of inspiration in his mind and proposed: "The county town pavilion has always been idle, and it covers an extremely wide area and is beautifully decorated. With just a few modifications, it can be used as a palace. In this way, it is also considered to make the best use of things, and the county magistrate should not object. ”

Pavilion station?

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then their eyes lit up, and they all agreed.

Not to mention, the pavilion is really suitable.

Qingzhou was originally the seat of Jingdong East Road, and as the Yidu of the county seat, the construction of the pavilion will not be bad.

The pavilion is located in the southwest corner of the inner city, covering an area of dozens of acres, with a total of four courtyards and 28 rooms before and after.

There are pavilions and water pavilions inside, and the environment is beautiful.

With a few minor renovations, it can be used as an imperial palace.

"Not bad!"

Zhao Ting was overjoyed, and immediately ordered: "Dean Yuan, this matter will be handed over to your engineering institute to be responsible." ”

"The subordinate officer receives the order!"

Craftsman Yuan replied.
