Listening to Zhang Shixun's words, Li Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "How can Xianggong do this?" The ambition of the jackals, their words are unbelievable, where is this kind of thing to be guaranteed? ”

"Liu Pingxin ascended to the dragon and was in charge of the army, and said that Zhao Yuanhao, the party item, was plotting against him and wanted to serve in the northwest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe imperial army has always been in Hebei, how can it change the deployment because of the new general in charge of the army——"

Zhang Shixun only felt that his head was as big as a fight, and he didn't know which way he had collided with the immortals this year, and he always encountered this kind of unlucky thing. Liu Ping was recently appreciated by Zhao Zhen, and Zhang Shixun was also forced by him to be anxious before he said the words of guarantee.

The national policy of the Song Dynasty, the main direction of defense was the Khitan, and the military and political arrangements were arranged according to this principle. How is it possible to change the strategy because of the opinions of one or two people? There are too many issues involved in a change in strategy. As the chief officer of the Privy Council, Zhang Shixun will inevitably adhere to the strategic judgment of the government.

Sheng Du's face was expressionless, he was like this, he was scheming, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Everyone sat down and was silent for a while, Li Shi still said: "I have already asked about the decommissioned Xiang Army, what he said is extremely credible, and Zhao Yuanhao's disobedience is already obvious." For today's plan, we can only redeem the loss of the court's words by entering the palace immediately. ”

Zhang Shixun patted the table lightly and said regretfully: "But now, the Holy Lord is recruiting Liu Ping!" ”

The Northern Song Dynasty said that the general of the army refers to specifically, not to refer to the general generals of the army, but to the ultimate positions of military generals. At this time, there are eight in total, and they claim to be the eight princes, which is analogous to the rulers of the two prefectures.

At the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty, the management system of the forbidden army was still imitated by the Hou Zhou, which was led by the front division of the palace and the pro-military division of the guards, and was called the two divisions of the yamen. Later, the Guards and Guards Division were divided into two, which were the Guards Horse Division and the Guards Infantry Division, which were collectively called the Three Ya with the front division of the palace. The three yas are independent of each other and do not belong to each other, and are the highest administrative bodies of the forbidden army.

The commander or deputy commander of the three ya, as well as the capital Yu Hou, plus the commander of the four compartments of the Tianwu and the four compartments of the dragon god guard, are called the management of the army, and the status is from the front of the palace, the horse army division, the infantry military division, and the status of the four compartments of the Tianwu to the dragon god from high to low. Because the Privy Council is a government agency, the Privy Council Deputy is not a military position, these eight positions are actually the top of the military position, and the salary is more generous, and the economic treatment is higher than that of the governor.

Although the national policy is that soldiers are not allowed to interfere in politics, in fact, the generals in charge of the army still have a great say in military affairs.

Liu Ping was originally a civil official, and in the second year of Jingde, Li Di was a jinshi on the list, and later exchanged literature for martial arts and entered the military general sequence. With such a background, coupled with the identity of the general in charge of the army, he can face off with the privy envoy Zhang Shixun. Liu Pinggang was not long in the post of general judge of the Zhenrong Army, which was the front line of the party and was familiar with the northwest, and strongly advocated that the main threat now was the party item.

Zhang Shixun used his position as a privy envoy as a guarantee because he couldn't argue with Liu Ping, and Zhao Yuanhao, a party item, would definitely not oppose the Song Dynasty in recent years. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came out, this kind of thing happened.

Thinking about it, Zhang Shixun had no choice, so he asked Sheng Du, who was sitting on the side and didn't speak: "Gongliang, how do you think we should deal with it now?" ”

Sheng Du said expressionlessly: "For the sake of Xianggong, if you can suppress things, then suppress them first." A retired soldier is just a soldier, and he can't close his mouth if he gives some gold and silver property? Yin Yue and a few people, after all, are party envoys, even if they really do something detailed, it is not easy to publicize. We know privately that it is enough to send men to the northwest. ”

Li Shi hurriedly said: "This method is not feasible! Before I went, this person fell into the hands of the Imperial City Division. As a result, Yang Jingzong was drinking and gambling money, and without asking, he almost beat people half to death, and now it is known all over the city! ”

Hearing this, Sheng Du shook his head: "Then there is no other way, so I have to enter the palace immediately and play to the saint." ”

Zhang Shixun asked Li Shi what happened, and slapped the table: "This Yang Jingzong, who was born as an idle man on the street, is now a minister of the imperial court, and he is still so lawless, which is really hateful!" ”

After speaking, he stood up first: "Let's go, let's enter the palace to face the saint!" ”

After taking two steps, he turned to Wang Deyong and said, "In the Privy Council, please also ask Wang Taiwei to take care of it." ”

Wang De hurriedly got up and held the wat with a smile: "Obey the decree of the Prime Minister!" ”

The three envoys of the Privy Council went out and got on the tricycle in the imperial city, passed through the imperial city, and arrived in front of the vertical arch hall.

As soon as they entered the vertical arch hall, the three of them were really taken aback. I saw that it was bustling here, all of them were Taiwanese counselors, some gathered together with passionate feelings, spitting everywhere, some lying on the case and writing urgently, and more gathered at the door of Tongjin Division. In addition to the Taiwan officials, there are also many pavilion officials who also join in the fun.

Shi Zhongli was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and walked around outside. It's been a few months, and it's been a lot of surprise.

Li Shi whispered to Zhang Shixun: "Xianggong, the matter has leaked out." ”

Zhang Shixun snorted: "These officials, why do they have such long ears!" ”

Li Shi just shook his head, didn't make a sound, and went straight to the door. I think that Zhang Shixun himself rose from the position of the imperial historian, how can he not have long ears when he is a spokesman? Not only are the ears long, but the mouth is also fast.

When I arrived at the gate, I saw that today was really different from the past, and Cao Cong, the gate envoy, was here in person.

Cao Cong came up to salute, and Zhang Shixun asked, "Who is facing in the palace now?" ”

"Hui Xianggong, it's Liu Ping, the new manager."

Zhang Shixun was a little irritable: "How long has this been, why hasn't Liu Ping come out yet!" ”

After pacing back and forth a few times, Zhang Shixun said to Cao Cong: "No matter, you just go in and pass the ceremony, just say that the Privy Council has an emergency military situation, and you must face the saint immediately." - By the way, related to the West, Liu Ping does not need to avoid it. ”

Zai Zhi has privileges, and there is no need to follow the regular schedule to enter the palace, since Zhang Shixun said that Zai Zhi does not need to be avoided, Cao Cong can only enter the palace immediately. As for whether Zhao Zhen sees it or not, that's another matter.

Looking at the crowd in the huge vertical arch hall, more and more officials came in, and their expressions became more and more excited, Zhang Shixun's brows became more and more wrinkled. There are several official positions in the imperial history, such as serving the imperial history, and so on, according to the convention, these people are not imperial historians. But in fact, some of them still regard themselves as speech officials, and they will admonish them whenever there is a major event.

I was hurt by Yang Jingzong this time, if it wasn't for him to come nonsense, he sent the information that Qiao Datou said to the Privy Council yesterday, how could he make a fool of himself during the court meeting today? Now it's okay, just swore that the party would not be opposed, and as soon as the words fell, I came to beat myself in the mouth. When it's over, you must not let Yang Jingzong go.

Zhang Shixun felt that time passed very slowly, and after waiting for a long time, Cao Cong hurriedly came out of the palace and saluted: "Xianggong, the Holy Edict, you will see you in the Chongzheng Palace!" ”

Zhang Shixun thanked him, straightened his official robe, helped the official hat, took a breath, and followed the gate personnel into the interior.

When he arrived at the Chongzheng Palace, he saluted like a ceremony, and was led by the small yellow door and entered the Chongzheng Palace.

I saw that the new commander of the Dragon Shenwei quadrangle envoy Liu Ping was wearing a military general's robe, sitting down, and had not left yet.

Zhang Shixun took Li Shi and Sheng Du to salute, and Zhao Zhen ordered to give a seat.

Sheng Du was obese, and after walking this way, he was already out of breath, and he couldn't drink the tea soup he was given, so he just sat there panting. Liu Ping felt strange and couldn't help peeking at him.

After drinking the tea soup, Zhao Zhen asked, "I don't know what military situation the Privy Council has, it's so urgent." ”

Zhang Shixun praised the wat: "Your Majesty, yesterday a decommissioned box army from Daizhou came to Beijing, saying that it was found in Wutai Mountain that the party envoys had drawn the geography of the mountains and rivers of the dynasty, and they were constantly spying around the military situation, which was obviously a meticulous work. It's just that the Imperial City Division arrested the person and sent it to Yang Jingzong, who was the official of the Imperial City Division, but he didn't interrogate him immediately, just because he was in a bad mood for a while, he beat the person half to death, and it was delayed. The gate only waited for Li Zhang to be there, because it was late, and it was too late to enter the palace. The decommissioned Xiang army had served in Yongzhou and was now a subordinate of Xu Ping, the deputy envoy of Yantie, so he left Beijing overnight and went to Zhongmu to report to Li Shi and Xu Ping, the privy deputy envoys there. The two of them returned to Beijing overnight, and early this morning, they rescued the person from Yang Jingzong, and only then did they find out the reason. Weichen just learned the news from Li Zhi, and hurriedly entered the palace to play! ”

Liu Ping on the side clapped his hands: "What am I talking about?" Zhao Yuanhao's wolf ambition must be opposed! When Cao Wumu was in Qinzhou, he had noticed this son, and ordered someone to draw his appearance, knowing that it was extraordinary, he would definitely not be willing to surrender! ”

Zhang Shixun shook his head and sighed, now facing Liu Ping, he really has nothing to say.

Cao Wei died in the eighth year of Tiansheng, and he was called "Wu Mu", since the founding of the country, he is worthy of being a general, and Cao Wei is afraid that he will be the last person. After his death, the Manchu civil and military held him in high esteem, and his words also carried weight.

Zhao Zhen was silent above. He values Liu Ping because he was born as a jinshi and turned into a military general, knows poetry and books, and is loyal to the Ming etiquette system. As for Liu Ping's views on the party, Zhao Zhen did not think so. For many years, the rulers of the two governments have been emphasizing that the great trouble of the country is in the north and not in the northwest, which is already a deep-rooted concept. If Zhang Shixun hadn't been in debt, Zhao Yuanhao would not have rebelled with his position as a guarantee, and he would not have attached so much importance to this news.

Yang Jingzong made another trouble, which made Zhao Zhen upset. Empress Dowager Yang is old, she really can't stand the toss, how can she punish Yang Jingzong heavily? Fortunately, this time it was Yang Jingzong who caused trouble, Xu Ping and Li Zhang made meritorious contributions, and in their hearts, the weight of those two people was even heavier. It's just that how to reward and punish is really difficult to grasp.

As for the party item Zhao Yuanhao, it is really fine, probably, maybe, it should not be reversed, right?

Thinking about it, Zhao Zhen said: "What about Xu Ping and Li Zhang? Let them come together and meet the demobilized van army! I will personally inquire about such important military affairs. (To be continued.) )
