"Heartless?"

Hearing the secret envoy's answer, Liu Xing's face turned pale: "If he asks me to besiege Yinshuke in Taiyuan City, I don't have to wait for him to persuade Lord Jin to fully withdraw the army from Hedong, and I can return his other child to him." Compared with Yinshuke, it should be more difficult to persuade the gold lord to withdraw his troops from Hedong, right? ”

Seeing Liu Xing say this, the secret envoy lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed much easier to persuade the emperor to withdraw all the soldiers and horses in Hedong than to give up Taiyuan City and Yinshuke. ”

"Then what are you hesitating about?"

Without saying anything, Liu Xing finished speaking, stood up suddenly, and threw down a sentence with a flick of his sleeve: "Go back and tell Xie Nu Lao'er that in order to show my sincerity and let him see my determination, I can put his son back first." If I have to hesitate, I can catch his children once, and I can catch him a second time. When the time comes, I will let him cut off his children and grandchildren. ”

As soon as these words fell, Liu Xing turned around and left.

When the secret envoy heard this, his eyes widened, and he wanted to stand up and continue to have Liu Xing distinguish, but he didn't see Liu Xing turn around, and first saw Ma Kuo staring at him coldly.

"Governor Ma, Governor Ma, how can this Mrs. Liu negotiate like this!" Seeing Ma Kuo's expression, although he knew that it was not good, the secret envoy could only speak cheekily and stubbornly: "Negotiation is for everyone to talk, where is he talking!" It's clear that it's the order of my general! ”

"It's just to order Xie Nu Lao'er, what's the matter?" After Ma Kuo heard this, he said coldly: "Now it is Xie Nu Lao'er who has come to beg my Taifu, and he will obey orders and not obey orders." Hmph, you know the consequences, but Xie Nu Lao'er knows better. ”

Liang Xing also suddenly stepped forward at this time, and made a gesture to the secret envoy. He said in a deep voice: "Here in my family's Taifu, Xie Nu Lao'er has no conditions to speak. If he doesn't accept it, grandpa, I'll make a few rings in his house tonight. Let's go, I'll send you back. ”

As soon as Liang Xing finished speaking, he couldn't help but step forward and grab the secret envoy, and dragged him out of the flower hall in the West Garden.

After the secret envoy was forcibly sent away, Liu Xing, Zeng Weijie, Wang Mingde and Ma Kuo came to the wing room of the West Flower Hall.

After the four of them sat down, Ma Kuo first laughed and said loudly: "Taifu Yingwu, this time the arrogance of the golden dog has been completely destroyed in front of you. Believe henceforth. The golden dog no longer dared to come to my envoys of the Great Song Dynasty to be arrogant and reckless. ”

As soon as his words that seemed to praise and even more like flaunting fell, Liu Xing said with a deep face: "It's just a Xie slave, not a gold master." ”

In a word. After Liu Xing looked up and saw Liang Xing walking into the room, he immediately said to him: "Let you Tian Cewei, how is the medicine that Xie Nu's son has been using now?" ”

Answer the question. Liang Xing replied expressionlessly, "Mrs. Yu." That kid already has a deep dependence on your improved Loose Scatter. Now if you don't take it every two hours, you'll immediately become a leper dog. ”

"Okay." Hearing his answer, Liu Xingcai turned his head to look at Zeng Weijie and said, "Fourth Brother Zeng, how is the situation of the little lady of the Xie Nu family who let you take care of now?" ”

Zeng Weijie didn't answer immediately when he heard this, but turned his head sideways and looked at Ma Kuo on the side.

After Ma Kuo saw Zeng Weijie's gaze, he immediately said to Liu Xing: "Mrs. Yu, that little lady has been taken over by her subordinates a few days ago. He is currently in custody in my Imperial Court. ”

Without thinking too much, Liu Xing just wanted to know the result. So after Ma Kuo finished speaking. Liu Xing immediately asked him: "Then you tell me, that little lady has been taught by several female teachers in the past few days, can she have the heart of repentance?" ”

"That Jiagu Yu'er himself is against the war and the Jin people going south." Ma Kuo knew that Liu Xing's style of behavior did not like to procrastinate, so he replied directly: "So in the past few days, several female teachers have explained to her the disaster of the war according to your plan and taught her her heart, she has already hated her father and brother for their invasion of the Song Dynasty in the bottom of her heart. ”

"Good."

After listening to Ma Kuo's words, Liu Xing nodded lightly and looked at Liang Xing again: "Brother Liang Xing, I will trouble you to go in person later." As long as Xie Nu really gives up Xinzhou City, you still need to personally return the Jiagu puppy to him. Remember, you must inform the puppy that he can only continue his life if he goes to get it once every three days according to Tian Cewei's agreement, and he must be firmly under the control of Tian Cewei, understand? ”

Nodding heavily, Liang Xing said: "Please rest assured, Taifu will do these things, and his subordinates will naturally not make mistakes." ”

No longer talking to Liang Xing, Liu Xing reviewed Zeng Weijie, Wang Mingde and Ma Kuo, and changed the topic: "If Xie Nu gives up Xinzhou, Daizhou in the north will not be a problem." For now, we should think about getting those people to go to the main place. This Yang Xianfeng has been rampage all the way to recover so many state capitals for us, if we can't timely mobilize effective people to govern the localities and appease the people, there will be chaos. ”

"This matter, it seems that Taifu, you are anxious for the whole cabinet to discuss, shouldn't it be that the three of us can make it happen if you come to give you advice?" After listening to Liu Xing's words, Wang Mingde immediately raised questions.

Seeing that he had questions, Liu Xing smiled coldly: "Cabinet, can I trust Zhao Ding, Ouyang Xun, or Ye Mengde or Wang Gao now?" ”

As soon as the smile was closed, Liu Xing's face became a little gloomy and said: "Those people are old fritters who have been in officialdom for a long time, if I let them come up with ideas, they will take the opportunity to form a party for personal gain." Governor Ma returned to the north, and there was not much officialdom entanglement. Both of you are my old subordinates, and I can believe that there are only three of you now. ”

Wang Gao, the governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Ye Mengde at the University of the Hanlin Academy, and Zhao Ding, the head of the household department, are all people who have experienced officialdom for more than ten years or even decades.

Liu Xing couldn't trust them, for fear that they would take advantage of the opportunity to elect local officials to form a party for personal gain, and as soon as Liu Xing said it, it was immediately recognized by the three of them.

It was Ma Kuo who spoke first, and after a moment of thought, he asked, "Taifu, do you have any basic ideas for the people in charge of the state capitals?" ”

Nodding slightly, Liu Xing said: "There are three main ones." First, they must not be old and weak among the old ministers, the upper age limit must not exceed 50 years old, and the previous time as an official must not exceed five years. Second, they must be loyal to the new cabinet, and those who are not satisfied with our new policy in the slightest cannot be used. Third, priority should be given to those who escaped from the old headquarters of the Red Turban Army and Taiyuan City, and those who have read books. You can't even show your talents, but you have to understand the series of new policies in my Hunter Valley and Wutai City. ”

After listening to these three requirements, Zeng Weijie immediately spoke: "If you follow these three points, I will first promote Sun Yujiang as the new governor of Xinzhou." Although Sun Yujiang has a broken arm, he doesn't read much. But in terms of understanding the new policy, he should be regarded as the deepest person. ”

"Then I will promote Wan Yafei as the commander of the pacification army, because Wan Yafei is also the same as Sun Yujiang, he is the old brother who has come all the way in Taiyuan City, Taifu. The understanding and implementation of the new policy should have been well understood. The most important thing is that Wan Yafei's ability to govern the army and train soldiers is a few points stronger than Sun Yujiang. Zeng Weijie finished speaking, and Wang Mingde also immediately spoke.

Hearing about the two of them, Liu Xing smiled: "Sun Yujiang went to Xinzhou Zhizhou, it's nothing." It's a big deal, I will separate the crash school and let him continue to help me train a grassroots military academy in Xinzhou. But if Wan Yafei is put in the Pingding Army, I will have a reliable person in front of the enemy, but who will be the dean of the Military Preparedness Rapid Learning School for me? ”

"Bi Jin can take over the provost of the Accelerated School."

Liu Xing's voice fell, and this time it became Ma Kuo's mouth: "With the observation of his subordinates, Bi Jin's talent is no less than Wan Yafei." And although Bi Jin has been in the army for a long time, his foundation in Confucianism is far better than Wan Yafei. Therefore, the lower official Bao promoted Bi Jin to take over the post of provost of the Accelerated School. ”

After listening to Ma Kuo's words, Liu Xing secretly thought in his heart: Now the deans of the crash school are Wan Yafei, and Bi Jin is still only the commander of the student barracks. Let him take over the position of military chief, in fact, it is nothing. But in this way, will Bi Jin be grateful to Ma Kuo and give Ma Kuo the opportunity to intervene in the crash school?

Thinking of this, Liu Xing shook his head and said, "No, the personnel of the Crash School can't move for the time being." ”

After pausing for a moment and thinking for a while, Liu Xing immediately said: "Sun Yujiang, the governor of Xinzhou and the master of the Xinzhou Military Preparedness Rapid Academy, can be determined. However, the Pingding Army, which originally only had three counties, should not continue to be established on its own. I am willing, the pacification army and Liaozhou will be re-established as a state, and Liaozhou will still be governed. For the position of Zhizhou, let Yue Fei take it over! ”

Yue Fei, the commander of the former Sidu of the palace and the provost of the newly established Wubei Academy, was the person in charge of the two places of Liaozhou and the Pingding Army, a total of twelve counties. After Liu Xing's proposal came out, Zeng Weijie nodded first, and then Wang Mingde also smiled after thinking about it.

Only after Ma Kuo listened, he frowned and said: "The front division of the palace is an important secretary of Gongwei Wutai, Yue Fei went to Liaozhou, will it make the front division of the palace unmanned and make mistakes?" ”

Sure enough, his mind was clear, Liu Xing secretly praised Ma Kuo's keen thinking ability, and said with a smile: "How long do you think we will stay in this Wutai City?" The front division of the palace, now Yue Fei has those battalions of soldiers and horses under his hands. The female soldiers of Yanling, the princess of Bi Jin, and the guards of Lei Zhen are two battalions. With only 2,000 people, wouldn't it be a waste for Yue Fei to be so wise and brave that he would continue to fight in an empty seat? ”

Halfway through the sentence, Liu Xing paused for a moment, and then said: "I asked Yue Fei to go to Liaozhou, not just to let him be the governor. The Pingding Army has long since dispersed, and he is the old department of the Pingding Army. I asked him to go back because I wanted him to reorganize the Pingding Army for me as soon as possible. In the middle of Taihang, a solid line of defense was reconstructed. ”

"Oh, it turns out that Taifu thinks so, then the lower official has no objection." After listening to Liu Xing's words, Ma Kuo fully understood Liu Xing's intentions, and nodded and said no more. (To be continued......)
