9. Changes in the political situation 3

However, what is strange is that Yu Yunwen did not say a word on this matter. Instead, he strongly persuaded Chen Junqing and Liu Heng to focus on national affairs, not to be rash, and to withdraw their resignations. This caused some ministers to be dissatisfied with Yu Yunwen. Zhang Yan reprimanded Yu Yunwen in front of him in the political affairs hall and said: "The eunuchs have been in power, starting from Cai Jing and Zhu Huangke, and Xi has been in power recently, I am afraid that since the time of the Xianggong, Yan is not ashamed of the Xianggong." Then he wrote to resign and went out of Yuanzhou.

In this regard, Yu Yunwen had no choice but to smile bitterly. He knew very well the reason for Zhao Tuan's move. On the one hand, it is because Zhao Tuan trusts these close ministers very much, and on the other hand, it is also because of Tang Si's resignation from the party and the dismissal of the palace, and the external transfer, and now only Liang Kejia is the only one among the ruling ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China. However, the power of the main battle faction is much stronger in the DPRK and China. Therefore, Zhao Tuan hoped to reuse Long Dayuan, Zeng Mo, Zhang Shuo and others to balance the balance of power between the DPRK and China. Therefore, Yu Yunwen knew that he would never be able to dissuade Zhao Tuan now.

At the same time, he did not approve of Chen Junqing and Liu Heng's request for release. Now that the situation in the right Jianghuai has just stabilized a little, and the Manichaean rebellion has begun in the south, the country is in an eventful time. At this time, the two ruling ministers will only give up this important position to the treacherous villain. For the Great Song Dynasty, it is not good at all, and it will only be detrimental to the country. What's more, as long as a few of their important ministers form righteousness in the court, Long Dayuan, Zeng Mao, Zhang Shuo and others will also have scruples and dare not act too recklessly. It's better than just opposing it and asking for an outward send.

And Zhao Tuan is not a mediocre emperor, he appointed Long Dayuan, Zeng Mao, Zhang Shuo and others also think that they must have a certain ability. If it is found that they are not competent in the future, or if there is evidence of misconduct, Zhao Tuan will definitely reconsider his own arrangement.

It was after listening to Yu Yunwen's several exhortations that Chen Junqing and Liu Heng were forced to withdraw their resignations. But the two of them refused to accept Long Dayuan, Zeng Mao, Zhang Shuo and others except for official business, and their intention to accept the three of them. Yu Yunwen was helpless at this point.

However, in order to appoint Long Dayuan, Zeng Mao, Zhang Shuo and others, the court dismissed several officials, and Yu Yunwen recommended Fan Chengda as a scholar in the middle school, and Zhang Xiaoxiang as a scholar of Xian Moge. Zhao Tuan adopted them one by one.

Then Yu Yunwen wrote a letter suggesting that since the Jin army had withdrawn, there was no need for the Jiankang Governor's Mansion, which was originally set up for the Northern Expedition, to continue to be retained, and it should be withdrawn. Moreover, the border defense line of the Great Song Dynasty, especially the Jianghuai and Xiang'e defense lines, should also be rearranged.

Originally, there were three imperial garrisons in the Jianghuai area, namely Chizhou, Jiankang and Zhenjiang. Among them, the position of Chizhou was too backward, Yu Yunwen suggested that it should be eliminated, and the imperial garrison should be set up in Haozhou instead, which would be commanded by the commander of the Ma Military Division, and the Wufeng army would make Chen Min temporarily take charge of the imperial garrison in Haozhou. Liu Bao was commanded by the Xinyang Military Festival as the imperial garrison of Zhenjiang Prefecture. Wei Sheng still guarded Haizhou, Jing Haijun Jiedu made Li Bao the control of the coastal imperial front naval army, all under the control of the Jiankang Mansion imperial garrison, and the Ningguo army made Li Xianzhong controlled.

Originally, there were four imperial garrisons on the front line of Xiang'e, which were Ezhou, Jingnan, Xiangyang, and Jiangzhou. Niu Yi is the commander of the imperial garrison of Ezhou Mansion, Qin Qi is the commander of the imperial garrison of Jingnan Mansion, and Cheng Dayong, the son of Cheng Min, is the commander of the imperial garrison of Jiangzhou. Jia Han Yanzhi was the envoy of the Xingguo Army, and the imperial garrison of Xiangyang Mansion was under control. and control the other three imperial front garrisons.

In the tenth year of Shaoxing (1140), the Jianghuai defense line was garrisoned by Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun. The Xiang'e defense line was garrisoned by Yue Fei, who was known as the three marshals at the time. Among them, Yue Fei's army has the largest number of troops, with more than 100,000, Zhang Jun's department has 80,000, and Han Shizhong's department has the least, with 30,000 or 40,000. In order to prevent the generals from supporting too many troops, in the eleventh year of Shaoxing, Zhao took over the military power of the three marshals, and later successively divided the three armies into seven imperial garrisons. In this way, the military generals' heavy support of troops is eliminated, but it also causes the consequence of the dispersion of troops and the difficulty of unified action.

Yu Yunwen knew that it was impossible to restore the original structure of the three marshals, so he appointed a royal garrison in Jianghuai and Xiang'e to control the other garrisons, and did some remedial measures. However, moderation does not directly interfere with the internal operation of other garrisons, but only makes it easy to unify command when something major happens. These proposals have basically been approved.

After more than a month of turmoil, the situation in the entire Great Song Dynasty gradually calmed down. The newly appointed officials also took on their roles, and Song's state apparatus was back in operation.

The change in government did not have much impact on Yang Yan, and he still spent every day with nothing to do. But that doesn't mean he's forgotten. In the past few days, there have been more than a dozen bullets of Yang Yan's performance and sent to Zhao Tuan's desk. Some people said that Yang Yan's expedition was fruitless, and the lost troops were dismantled, and there was no great merit, and the response was punished. It is also said that Yang Yan's position is too high, his name is not true, and he should be recalled. It is also said that Yang Yan will be a concubine, and according to the practice of the Great Song Dynasty, relatives should not receive the year, so they should be reassigned to other positions. Wait a minute.

Yang Yan didn't expect that he risked his life and was born and became a citizen for thousands of miles, and now he is idle, not to mention, he still attracts so many rights and wrongs. Naturally indignant in my heart: These people were there during the Northern Expedition of the Song Army, and what did you do when the emperor was trapped in Qixian? Now that everything is too peaceful, they all come out and talk about it.

In fact, the duty of the imperial envoy is to supervise the hundred palaces, and although there are many people who are not afraid of power and dare to speak out, but in order to invite false fame, there are many people who make amazing remarks and exaggerate the facts, and some people are completely because of the dispute of will, or even make something out of nothing and distort the facts. In fact, the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty have not been impeached by the imperial envoy whether they are loyal or treacherous, good or bad. Some time ago, because the Jin army pressed the border, the DPRK and China were fighting and arguing, so they took care of other things flawlessly, but now that the Jin army has withdrawn and the situation has stabilized, the imperial envoys have naturally begun to be active again.

However, not all of Yang Yan's envoys came out of nowhere, and some of them were completely because of the practice of guarding against military generals that the Great Song Dynasty had been pursuing since the founding of the country. In fact, Yang Yan was not alone, Tang Siwei, Qian Duanli, Yu Yunwen, Chen Junqing, including Yang Yizhong, Li Xianzhong and other generals who left Beijing, were all impeached. The women's army formed by Zhao Yueru and Zhao Qianru was even more caught by the imperial envoys, and at most, Zhao Tuan could receive seven impeachments a day requesting the disbandment of the women's army.

Generally speaking, the officials who were impeached would defend themselves, and of course, there were also officials who did not bother to defend themselves at all but automatically resigned, taking retreat as advance and testing the emperor's attitude towards themselves. If the emperor agrees with the impeachment, he will accept the resignation and depose or exile him as a matter of course. If they do not agree, they will remain in the middle of the game, or they will remove the envoy to show their trust in the minister who has been impeached. Zhao Tuan dismissed the four envoys of the female army in a row, and as a result, the envoys all knew the emperor's attitude, and no one said anything more.

If Yang Yizhong was in Lin'an, he would naturally teach Yang Yan to defend himself. It's a pity that Yang Yi COSCO is in Jiankang now. Yang Yan also had a stubborn temper, so he simply ignored it, and he didn't care if he was an official or not. So he didn't go to the Yamen of the Ma Military Division to govern the public, in fact, there was nothing to do. I was just afraid that the tassel was for myself but the heart, so I didn't tell her. was really bored, Yang Yan would go to Ruyi Fang to listen to Yan Rui play the piano.

Later, Yang Yan had to go to Ruyi Fang almost every day. Yan Rui also pushed away all the daytime entertainment and waited for Yang Yan to arrive. Every time Yang Yan came, Yan Rui didn't ask anything, just made a pot of fragrant tea for him, and then stroked the piano for him. Yang Yan listened quietly on the side. After a long time, Yang Yan did not deliberately hide it, and it was also known by many people. However, at that time, except for a few Confucians who regarded themselves as science, most of the teaching officials liked to associate with ** and linger among the silk and bamboo orchestras, especially Yan Rui, a famous prostitute who was both beautiful and artistic, was especially popular.

However, these days are not all without good news, Zhao Tuan finally tried to announce that the marriage of Yang Yan and Zhao Qianru was confirmed. Now just wait for Yang Yizhong to come back, and you can start to do it.
