Yangsan.

"Your Majesty, General Lin sent back the news that they intercepted Wanyan Lou's room and Wanyan Zonghan's army in Hetao, fought for a day and a night, killed most of the enemy, and the two fled into Yinshan with the army."

"In addition, Wanyan Zonggan and Wanyan Zongwang have fled north along the mountain range with a small number of enemies, and they have not intercepted them!"

Xiao Jiasui reported to Sun Leiyu.

"It's not surprising, after all, the Jurchens are a fishing and hunting people, and the mountains and forests are their battlefields, not ours!"

Sun Lei nodded, if the Jurchens enter the mountain, it is equivalent to a tiger entering the mountain forest, and it will be difficult to catch it again.

"Let Lin Chong bring people back to Yanyun, leave the soldiers and horses stationed, and the army can come back!"

Sun Lei thought about it and ordered, the army has been fighting for a long time, and it is time to stop fighting and rest for a while.

"Your Majesty, this is news from Xu Guanzhong!"

Xiao Jiasui handed over another recital, Sun Lei took it and read it, and now the recent war is in Liaodong.

"Xu Junshi is going to the grassland? It's a bit adventurous! ”

Sun Lei frowned after reading the book and said, Xu Guanzhong said in the book that he wanted to go to the grassland to see.

"The strength of the grassland has been exposed this time, Xu Guanzhong should want to go to the grassland to investigate, after all, the grassland is a force to be reckoned with."

Xiao Jiasui said.

"There's no need to take risks, it doesn't matter how strong the grassland is, we're not the same as before!"

Sun Lei shook his head, now is not the past, there is no need to take risks.

"Your Majesty, Xu Guanzhong is not the kind of character who can sit firmly in the army."

Xiao Jiasui said.

"Alas, pass the decree and crown Xu Guanzhong as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, from a product! Let Yue Fei lead people to follow the guards! ”

Sun Lei said helplessly, since Xu Guanzhong has made up his mind, let him go, it is not a way to force him to stop.

"Tell Xu Guanzhong, just go around the grassland, don't go to Xiliao, Yelu Dashi hates us to death!"

Sun Lei said again, the grassland is literally in war now, Yelu Dashi established the Western Liao to expand the territory, and the surrounding Mongolian tribes, Gaochang Uighurs, Tubo, and Huathornzimo have all occupied a lot of territory, and now it is the time for chaos.

"Yes!"

Xiao Jiasui nodded and said, the western grassland is indeed too chaotic, and it was too dangerous in the past.

"Your Majesty, I just received the news, the investigation in Tokyo is a bit strict, the vanguard has entered the city, but I am afraid that the follow-up will not be easy to enter."

Wen Huanzhang came to report.

"How strict?"

Sun Lei frowned and asked.

"It is said that those who enter the city, even if they have a reason, will be arranged to the west of the outer city, guarded by soldiers, and cannot move freely."

Wen Huanzhang replied.

"Can't you have a reason?"

Sun Lei's brows furrowed even tighter, which was a bit unexpected, he thought that it would be strictly investigated, but he didn't expect it to be so strict.

"It is said that it was written by Li Gang, and now he is staying in Tokyo."

Wen Huanzhang said.

"Li Gang? What a hassle! Let the follow-up people stop, and there are enough people entering the city, let them be careful to lurk. ”

Sun Lei looked at Wen Huanzhang and said, he still underestimated Li Gang, under this kind of precaution, it is too risky to continue to send people to Tokyo, lurking this kind of thing, the more people there are, the more dangerous it is.

"Li Gang's appointment to stay in Tokyo is not good news for us."

Xiao Jiasui also opened his mouth and said, Li Gang is very difficult to entangle, and staying in Tokyo is also very fatal.

"There is also news back from Tokyo, Wu Min, the former Privy Councillor, was promoted to Shaozai, and Yin Xu Churen, the former Kaifeng Prefecture, was Dazai, and many others were also promoted, and Tokyo officialdom has almost changed."

Wen Huanzhang spoke again.

"Is it so frequent? It seems that Zhao Huan is going to establish his own power! ”

Sun Lei touched his chin, Shaozai and Dazai are in phase, although Wu Min and Xu Churen have some ability, but they are still not enough.

"It's a little too urgent, such a child's play transfer, I'm afraid it's a lot of trouble, we should be able to find opportunities from it!"

Xiao Jiasui has a point, the prime minister is above 10,000 people under one person, and most of the time he governs the country for the emperor, Zhao Huan so easily transfers officials to install his own people, this kind of faction that only considers officials but does not consider ability will be a big problem.

"Master Wen, what do you think?"

Sun Lei looked at Wen Huanzhang and asked.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows a little about these two!"

Wen Huanzhang was silent for a moment before he spoke.

"Wu Min, in the second year of Daguan, I tried to enter the office with Biyong's private trial! Although he is talented, he is not mentally strong, and he often wanders among high-ranking officials, and is good at pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages when encountering problems. ”

"Xu Churen, a Jinshi during the Yuanfeng period, once opposed Tong Guan's forced liquidation of prices, and later asked to live within his means, save floating expenses, and stop the rampant, he is a decisive and insightful person."

Wen Huanzhang said.

"Biyong?"

Sun Lei touched his chin and was a little puzzled.

"Biyong was originally a school set up by the Son of Heaven in the Western Zhou Dynasty to educate the children of the nobility, and after the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were Biyong in all dynasties, as a place to respect Confucianism and perform ceremonies. The children of the male aristocracy learned the various skills required to be a nobleman, such as etiquette, music, dance, poetry recitation, writing, archery, horseback riding, and driving. ”

"The Great Song Dynasty also has Biyong, and those who can enter the school are all children of high-ranking officials and nobles, which is an alternative career!"

Xiao Jiasui explained that if you want to enter the office, the imperial examination is the only way for ordinary people. As for the nobility, there are many roads, and Biyong is one of them.

"A young man is not strong-minded, and a Dazai is strong-minded, this is a big contradiction, I am afraid that I will not be able to sing it."

Sun Lei immediately understood what Wen Huanzhang meant, Wu Min is now also a martial minister in the Privy Council, and Xu is a literary minister, this Wen Yiwu has a diametrically opposite personality, so it's no wonder if there is no problem.

"Your Majesty, the position of prime minister is related to the court situation, if Zhao Huan is wise enough and strong enough, these two people with diametrically opposite personalities can naturally restrain each other, but although Zhao Huan is thrifty and humble, his nature is still indecisive and capricious!"

Wen Huanzhang said.

"Then let these two fight and watch a dog-eat-dog!"

Sun Lei nodded, although Cai Jing and those people have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, after all, they have been together for many years, and the entanglement of interests has long been one, and they can still get along peacefully.

But Wu Min and Xu Churen are different, these two people were both promoted by Zhao Huan recently, and their foundation in the DPRK and China is limited, and it is inevitable to compete for power and profit under the sudden high position.

"Your Majesty, then Cai Jing and the others are just demoted, do they need to send someone to get rid of them?"

Wen Huanzhang hesitated for a moment, and suddenly lowered his voice and said.

"There's no need to beat the water dogs!"

Sun Lei said.

"Your Majesty, although those people were demoted to their homes and distributed, they still have a chance to make a comeback, after all, they have been in the officialdom for many years, and they have also made some "political achievements", and they are especially good at helping the emperor "solve problems". ”

Wen Huanzhang nodded, things in officialdom are not judged by right or wrong, but by need, now the emperor doesn't need these people, these people will be demoted and raided, and when the emperor needs these people again, these people will rise to prominence again.

Moreover, Wen Huanzhang emphasized "political achievements" and "solving problems". (End of chapter)
