Chapter 819: Lonely Back
Cai Bian said: "My army is so powerful now? ”
Was the Song Dynasty army really so powerful?
Can you say that this kind of performance is not amazing? But is it really powerful?
Everyone was confused together.
"It's not that powerful, but it's not as cowardly as it used to be. A long time ago, Zhang Zhifu and I analyzed that the difference in the real combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms is not so big, if our army goes deep into the enemy's territory and is not properly prepared, it will be defeated, but if the enemy penetrates deep into our territory and is not properly prepared, it will also be defeated, so there is the origin of the shallow attack tactic. ”
"Secondly, there are many cavalry in Western Xia, there is a speed advantage, and there is more infantry in our dynasty, there is no speed advantage, and they often fight separately, even if the imperial court has placed a pacification envoy on the edge of the road, and is always in charge of the military, political and financial power of the state army, so as to facilitate unified scheduling, but because of the lack of talent, improper scheduling, they are still fighting separately. Therefore, in the previous battles, there were many defeats and few victories. ”
"However, there is one of the biggest characteristics of the use of troops in Western Xia, a slightly larger battle, with at least more than 100,000 troops, or even 300,000 troops...... It's a pity to think about it, I have fought so many wars, but when I fought in the summer, I used 300,000 troops and horses, and the rest, I used more than 100,000 troops, which was a shocking battle. Wang Ju explained.
Su Zhe and the others laughed dumbly.
After the victory, everyone's mood was relaxed.
Wang Ju was not ridiculing the Song Dynasty, but mocking the poor soldiers of the Western Xia.
"So once they are defeated, it is often a great victory, just like the battle to defend Fulin Road that Zhang Kang and others will launch......"
The Western Xia started with 100,000 soldiers and horses at every turn, and as long as the Song army won, it also means that at least more than 20,000 or 30,000 troops of the Western Xia will be gnawed.
"The problem is that they always have a speed advantage, so if they break this speed advantage and win again, it will be a super victory." Wang Ju said. Everyone will understand.
Cai Ting and Wang Ju presided over the defense of Dashun City, first flooded the Xia army in Huachi, and then with the help of Dashun City, the Western Xia army was divided into two, defeating the Western Xia army, the first is to break the strength advantage of the Western Xia. The second is to use the Dashun City to block and break the speed advantage of Western Xia.
Later, the battle of Gyeongju presided over by Wang Ju was more complex and more brilliant, but the reason was the same, this year's successive victories were still the same, especially the battle of Mingsha City, which attracted the main army of Western Xia to Mingsha City by using the strange ecstasy array, and then attacked with fire, resulting in the emptiness of the rear forces of Western Xia. And Liang Yiqi's main army was deeply trapped in Pingxi. It is useless to be fast, the mountain road is rugged, and it enters the ambush of the Song army, not only can it not give full play to the advantages of the cavalry, but it is also difficult to escape.
"Know yourself and know your enemy?" Zhao asked.
But it is also necessary, if you don't know the weaknesses and strengths of the enemy, you fight blindly. How can you win? But within ten years, even if the minister does not go to Shaanxi Road. They also did not use further troops against the Western Xia, and the Western Xia did not want to send 100,000 soldiers and horses to invade our dynasty at every turn. ”
It wasn't a joke, but everyone laughed together.
Wang Ju began to get down to business, and it was also his last edict before leaving.
That is, 10,000 families of destitute people migrated from Lizhou Road to the north.
There are more than 10 state armies, more than 30 counties, and more than 300,000 households on Lizhou Road. If you look at the area, as well as the number of states and counties, the population is not too dense.
However, in addition to the Hanzhong Basin, which is only more than 1,000 square kilometers, the rest of Lizhou Road is a vast mountainous area, taking this factor into account. It seems that it is not densely populated, but it is actually very densely populated. The main reason for this is that the three major turmoil in Bashu (the uprising of Quanshixiong when Wang Quanbin entered Sichuan, the uprising of Wang Xiaobo of Li Shun, and the rebellion of Wang Jun under Zhao Kuangyi's brother-in-law Fu Zhaoshou), all of which did not affect this area.
There are many people, and most of them are mountainous, so they have also become a poor area in the Song Dynasty.
But Wang Ju chose here for two reasons, compared with the inner hinterland of Bashu, the terrain here is relatively high, not as warm as the inner hinterland of Bashu, and the people can adapt to the climate of the northwest.
Secondly, there are many mountainous terrains here, including the southern foothills of the Qinling Mountains, the Daba Mountain that stretches for thousands of miles, the people are poor, and the folk customs are fierce.
The good news came that the northwest had not yet settled down in Huizhou, and the Battle of Gufengtai had just ended.
However, Huizhou must have been taken by the Song Dynasty, and the population of Western Xia became more and more scarce, especially since Huizhou was located in the frontline area, coupled with Liang Yiqi's burning and looting, there was a large number of vacuum areas in Huizhou, not only Huizhou, but also the Huluchuan area around Pingxia City in the past.
Too many people are not good, but too few people are undoubtedly even worse.
So 10,000 families were migrated to fill the area. Moreover, there are many rivers in this area, and there are a large number of places with abundant water and grass, which are used as grazing grounds for the Qiang people, but when the Han people come, they can plant, and grain will be the key to health in the next few years in the northwest. Even if Wang Ju took Western Xia and Huangzhou, the rebellion and war would have to last for several years, so in this sense, some people would have to be relocated.
But that's not the point.
This migration is just an attempt.
After several years of tragic battles, the population of Western Xia has become less and less, and now it is implementing the strategy of Song Taizu, coercing a large number of Western Xia people to move to Weiyuan, or Huanqing Road and Yanyan Road to resettle, then in the future, there are many places in Western Xia that are empty.
At that time, a large number of Han people would migrate from the densely populated areas in the inner hinterland of Hedong and Shaanxi to cultivate and plant, and even after the pacification of Huangzhou, many people would be migrated to the Huangshui and Irrigation River areas in the name of the Baojie army and border troops or archers, and the number of migrated people may be as many as 200,000 households.
At the same time, Wang Ju wants to implement the policy of ethnic integration, and the first premise of the Han family is that there must be a large number of Han people in the local area, and it can evacuate all kinds of pressure caused by the overcrowding in some areas.
However, when it is implemented, there must be many accidents, and this migration will be able to find many problems, and we will be able to find ways to resolve these problems in advance, laying a good foundation for large-scale migration in the future.
And this migration, there is also a very important premise, that is, many miscellaneous grains brought from the other side have gradually been promoted on Shaanxi Road, and the promotion of these drought-tolerant crops is also conducive to the survival of the Han people in the north with agricultural civilization.
Zhang Dian smiled: "Taibao." You have overturned all of Tang Taizong's policies. ”
"Since the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the most outstanding emperors are undoubtedly Emperor Guangwu and Tang Taizong, many of their strengths are worth borrowing, such as Tang Taizong's civil and military governance, using talents according to ability, and attaching importance to people's livelihood. However, no one is perfect, although Tang Taizong is close to a perfect person, but he is not a perfect person, such as his harmony with Tubo, sent a large number of craftsmen to Tubo, so that Tubo immediately entered the era of civilization and became a great disaster in the Tang Dynasty. For example, this ethnic resettlement ......"
Li Shimin completely reduced the northern and northwestern border areas. Therefore, An Lushan was given the soil for rebellion, and there was the emergence of Western Xia, so now Wang Ju is going the opposite way, and making the border areas as much as possible Sinicized, including Guangnan West Road.
Everyone is a family, so there are not so many problems.
"Speaking of strengthening foreign enemies, Your Majesty, Lords. The minister also talked about Hu Seng. ”
Dozens of Tianzhu monks finally came to the capital and settled in Xiangguo Temple. It has attracted the attention of many people, and even some Buddhist believers in the Jianghuai region have come to the capital to worship at Xiangguo Temple. Even if the people are counted, many ministers also go to join in the fun. Even under the urging of Gao Taotao, Zhao Ji met with these great monks in the palace despite Wang Ju's opposition. Actually. These great monks didn't even speak Chinese, and then they spoke the Dharma, and the interpreter they brought from Dali was on the side.
The emperor paid attention to it, so many wealthy people pooled money and let these great monks hold several big festivals in Xiangguo Temple. Anyway, Wang Ju can't be in a hurry.
"Hu Seng is a little better, the Buddhist teachings are not so radical, they promote Buddhism, and they also influence the people to accumulate good deeds, but once the ministers are lucky to take down the Hexi Corridor and the Silk Road can be unblocked, then the countries of the Western Regions will inevitably send envoys to worship our court."
"Your Majesty, your lords, I still remember the time of Taizong, when our dynasty had not lost the northwest, so many Hu people came to worship our dynasty, some were real envoys, but most of them were real merchants and false envoys, and in the name of envoys, they handed over the unsellable commercial goods to our dynasty as tribute, in exchange for a lot of rewards. In fact, the truth is that if our dynasty is strong, we don't need any rewards to win over, and naturally there will be all countries to come to court, and our country is weak, even if there are rewards to win over, there may not be many countries to worship our court. Therefore, strengthening oneself is the key. No matter how many envoys come, I will still come to my court, and if a messenger does not come, I will still come to my court. Therefore, once the Silk Road is opened, I hope that you will not make the same mistakes as before. If you come, you are a guest, and you can entertain you, but you don't have to accept any tribute, so we can take a little bit of the special products of the Great Song Dynasty and reward them, or give them to some high-ranking officials. Otherwise, our dynasty may fall into false fame, and even make the mistakes of Emperor Tang Ming in his later years. ”
No, this problem is not big, Wang Ju looked at Zhao Ji again and said: "Your Majesty, from now on, the king will not be in the early dynasty, it was written by Bai Juyi." In normal times, the ministers that His Majesty received in the Yanhe Hall were nothing more than a few important ministers, just like now. Therefore, the king must be early in the dynasty so that he can speak widely, so that he can hear and understand. ”
"In addition, not only the early dynasty, Emperor Tang Ming favored Yang Guifei, and he didn't even go to the early dynasty, but it was government affairs. So Li Linfu became a diligent little bee, and in order to deal with national affairs, he even slept in the government hall at night. ”
When they heard the little bee, they laughed again.
"When the minister gave a lecture to His Royal Highness, he deliberately said the distribution of this right, for example, in my dynasty, when the government affairs came to the Zhongshu, the small matters were decided by the Zhongshu Sheren and other officials, and the major government affairs were decided by the Zhongshuzai, and then deliberated by the subordinates, but the really major military affairs were still handed over to His Majesty to deal with, and the major edicts were also issued by His Majesty, and the two systems reviewed the draft edict, so that the ministers would not mess with the country. Emperor Tang Ming did not go to court early, did not decide on national affairs, and handed it all over to Li Linfu to make decisions on national affairs, which was equivalent to Emperor Tang Ming delegating the emperor's rights to Li Linfu, and eventually became a chaos in the Tang Dynasty. ”
"Well said," Zhao said.
"Your Majesty, but how did Song Renzong fall ill at the beginning of his pro-government? It's not like Fu Bi said, close to the woman who is seriously ill, but at the beginning of Renzong's pro-government, big and small things, all done by himself, even if there are Cai Gong, Fan Gong, and ministers in the book now, they can't make decisions on all military and political affairs one by one, and Renzong is alone? Your Majesty, this is a reasonable distribution of power. ”
Later, there were really two iron men in history who did this, one was Zhu Yuanzhang, and he survived.
The other is Yongzheng, who died of exhaustion in only thirteen years.
This is Wang Ju worried that after he leaves, Zhao Ji is not at ease. And as he did in his early years, he dealt with many things every day, and with his present body, he fell and fell.
But I can't just say, Your Majesty, it's good for you to make some major military decisions.
So Wang Ju said in reverse. First said that Li Longji's later years of the king did not come to the dynasty early, and then turned over to tell the story of Song Renzong's exhaustion after his pro-government, Zhao Ji can easily accept it.
Wang Ju said one last thing.
"In the past, the imperial court appeased the barbarian tribes, and often used money to buy peace from the barbarian leaders, but the result was that the power in the hands of these barbarian leaders became stronger and stronger, which made many people insatiable and ambitious. Therefore, the minister changed the land in the south and returned to the stream. The imperial court can benefit the people, and this people are all the people, including all the barbarians who belong to my Great Song Dynasty. But not the very few barbarian chieftains. Only these people are guaranteed to live and clothe, and even if there are a few ambitious chiefs, they can't make big waves. ”
In addition, if you want to completely stabilize the northwest, you must not only appoint reasonable officials (referring to the fact that the governors and counties must be held by military generals), as well as a reasonable policy of ethnic integration, but also make their lives better. It is necessary to allocate funds for the construction of roads and water conservancy, and teach them advanced farming. In this way, from this year until the next five or six years, the cost of the campaign to pacify the two countries, the cost of the campaign to suppress the rebellion, and the cost of resettlement of the displaced people. As well as the cost of building roads and water conservancy, the finances of the imperial court will be very tight for several years. ”
This article must be made clear, otherwise someone will make a fuss about it again.
"But as long as these few years have passed, the people of Shaanxi Road will be liberated. It is also possible to successively reduce some of the forbidden soldiers, at least a large number of Baojie, archers, volunteers, soldiers and strong horses on the Shaanxi Road, which can be cut by half, and there is no need to worry about the huge cost of the Song and Xia wars. Even if the military expenditure is not reduced, with the current financial situation, there will still be a large surplus. ”
"Your Majesty, the old minister said to several ministers in the Chinese book that at that time, the country must not relax, because there is still a river worker. If you want to completely control the Yellow River, there is only the strategy that the minister said, but in that way, the river union is very huge. Therefore, the minister said that it would take ten years, so that the people's resources would not be strained, and the financial resources would not be strained. After the completion of the river project, the country can be said to have truly entered the small governance. ”
"And once the river work is completed, our dynasty will be more perfect, and at that time, the imperial court can abolish all harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and even the two taxes for those below the fourth class household can be reduced or exempted."
As for the people above the third-class households, they are all small landlords, middle landlords and large landlords, and their two taxes are exempted, and their heads are broken.
However, this can be a lot of money.
It is difficult to calculate the amount of expenditure and consumption in each state and county, because it does not count the account books of the three divisions.
But Wang Ju has served as a local official for many years, and he can make an estimate in his heart that it is at least not less than 10 million guan, and he is still a new guan.
Now the two taxes have been reduced to 38 million by Wang Juyi, of which those below the fourth-class household occupy at least 25 million.
This 25 million yuan is converted into a new one, and it is nearly 20 million yuan, and if it is not reduced, the small coffers of various states and counties will emerge together with various floating fees.
Therefore, if the state wants to do this, it will reduce the income of 35 million yuan between the entry and exit of the country.
Wang Ju estimated these accounts roughly, and after a brief explanation, he said: "However, at that time, the Southern Third Route can slightly transfuse blood to the imperial court, so with the current financial situation, the country can still generate a surplus of one or two million guan a year, and this has not included the saved military expenses and the expenses incurred by the Northwest War." And in doing so, it will also effectively crack down on the mergers of powerful people in various places. ”
Those who are below the fourth class do not pay two taxes, but those who are above the third class continue to pay two taxes, so the value of this annexation is not large, and of course it will play a role in cracking down on mergers as Wang Ju said.
"Maybe there are policies and countermeasures, and maybe there will be more big households that divide their properties into fourth-class and fifth-class households. However, it is illegal to do so and cannot be made public. If it reaches that point, the country can be called from small governance to great governance, which can also be comparable to the governance of Wenjing, and can even surpass it. ”
"From the Jiefu Gong Reform Law to the improvement and correction of the ministers, at least in terms of national finance and taxation, our dynasty has taken on a new look, but there is one of the most important premises, do not destroy this system, it is easy to build and destroy. But it's hard to build it after it's destroyed......"
This is addressed to all ministers.
So what does Gao Tao want to do in the future. There will be great resistance.
However, many ministers also heard Wang Ju's words, in the past few decades, don't think about recovering any Yanyun, which also shows Wang Ju's calmness and sobriety. But they thought wrongly, whether to collect Yanyun or not depends on the promotion of miscellaneous grains in the Liao country, if all the Jurchens get off horseback. Then you can collect Yanyun. The recovery failed, at most the two countries deteriorated, with the current situation of the Liao State, it was impossible to threaten the Song Dynasty, and the recovery was successful, which was undoubtedly a thousand good.
But the Jurchens did not get off the horseback, and still maintained that fierce folk style, Wang Juzhen was really jealous, this is an ethnic minority who has entered the Central Plains twice. How many nomads did it?
"Some of you may think that I am unfounded, why do I respect Qi Guogong very much? It wasn't for the Duke of Qi Guo's support for me, after Xining's change of law, it caused controversy from all sides, until the time of the princess of Qi Guo, although the change continued, but the controversy gradually became smaller. ”
"I don't have a top minister, but Zhao Pugong will go down. Lu Duosun will go down if he goes down, and Kolai Gong will go down if he goes down. Even if Ding Wei goes down, he will also go down. But although Gong Wen is in Chizhou, he has always made me very jealous. Why? Whether it is Zhao Pugong or Ding Wei, there are only a few around them, but behind Duke Wen is a large group of people. ”
"Home and everything prospers, and besides, it is the country. The harm of partisanship. From the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, no matter which history book, it can be seen that Your Majesty, the minister, and insisted, once Duke Wen was the prime minister again. Inevitably, many of the systems established by the ministers will be overthrown one by one. ”
"Duke Wen is old, and it is not appropriate to be in the south, so I will make an order on the same day, let him be a minister." Zhao Ji said euphemistically.
But Mao Yong, as long as Sima Guang and Wen Yanbo do not die, Wang Juxin will be uneasy.
But the Song Dynasty was this kind of system, couldn't it be impossible to order these two guys to be executed?
"Fan Gong, in terms of financial management ability, you are not a leader in the Song Dynasty, why does Your Majesty think of you? It is your gentle personality that wants to use you to regulate the relations between all parties, calm the country, and resolve party disputes. Please keep it in mind. ”
Although Wang Ju's methods of doing things are very tough, his words before leaving, which takes into account the overall situation, also moved some ministers.
Wang Ju looked at everyone again, and there was nothing else to explain, so he said: "The minister said that three years will be the prime minister to improve the financial situation of the imperial court, and His Majesty will also try his best to support it, but there are still many things, and the minister has not achieved it, which makes the minister very ashamed." However, the three-year covenant is also approaching, so the minister will give a brief explanation in the book, and then issue the edict of the migrating people, and the minister will go to Shaanxi. ”
…………
"Your Majesty, the Taibao left the capital overnight after dark yesterday." A small yellow door reported.
Yesterday, Wang Ju returned to Zhongshu and issued an edict to relocate the people, and at the same time handed over, the imperial court granted Wang Ju Shaanxi Nine Road Jingluo to pacify the envoy, and there were three more roads, Hexi Road, Lingxia Road and Huangzhou Road, but Wang Ju resigned.
After all, there is still a Liao State, they don't want Western Xia to be destroyed by the Song Dynasty, what is the Nine Roads, it is too ostentatious.
At Wang Ju's insistence, the imperial court granted Wang Ju Shaanxi Six Roads to pacify the envoy, and added a sentence later, in charge of military and political affairs in the northwest.
As soon as it was delayed, it was approaching dusk, and Wang Ju was on duty, that is, from this day on, Wang Ju was no longer the prime minister of the Song Dynasty.
Then Wang Ju returned home, immediately packed his luggage, the actual luggage had already been packed, just to prepare the carriage, load the luggage into the carriage, a large family, except for a few servants who left to guard the house, the rest of them took advantage of the night to fall and leave the capital.
He walked away like a thief.
But Wang Ju was also helpless, the news that he went to Shaanxi after the Dragon Boat Festival had already spread in the capital, and even the servants who bought vegetables at home went to the vegetable market, and many people blocked up to ask.
If you leave the capital generously, maybe many people in the capital will send them off or even keep them.
If Wang Ju went to the other side, sent each other, and the people who were retained were lined up in Mizhou, it didn't matter, anyway, Wang Ju didn't come back, on the contrary, the more people he sent, the more he could prove that his policy was popular with the people, and the less likely it was to destroy.
Then after Gao Taotao's death, Zhao Xu was in charge of the government and further improved, he had no accident at that time, he would still be alive, and he could also write a letter to Zhao Xu, as long as he did not do anything overseas, Zhao Xu would not reject it, and the Song Dynasty would further change in a benign direction.
But not now, the more people who send it, the more people will make a fuss.
Take a look, so many people were bewitched by Wang Jugu. and controls hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and fierce generals on Shaanxi Road, if Wang Ju wants to rebel, the Great Song Dynasty will change the world.
And this kind of public opinion made Zhao Ji suspicious, and the major event was suspended.
So the king left the capital like a thief.
Where did Zhao Ji think of Wang Ju's thoughts? I don't believe it if I have gotten to this point, and he doesn't believe it himself.
Originally, he also planned to summon Wang Ju this morning, and then send him off with his ministers. At least send out the Xuande Gate.
Now Wang Ju is gone, which makes Zhao Ji feel lost.
What's more important is that Wang Ju has no political or martial arts in the court, and if there is anything difficult about it, summon him to ask him, and it will be solved immediately.
Therefore, when Wang Ju went, Zhao Ji seemed to have missing an extremely important thing in his heart.
He suddenly thought of what Wang Ju said: "I may just be a wild child in a poor ravine in the northwest, and many people don't welcome ......."
Come to mind. He was inexplicably sad, so he left the Yanhe Palace, came to the tower of Xuande Gate, and looked to the west, at this time he seemed to see a lonely back gradually disappearing into the sky through the thousands of houses that were lined up one after another.
He muttered: "Wang Qing, it's not you who are responsible for me, but I am responsible for you." ”
Not him. Many ministers and people in the capital felt reluctant and sad when they heard that Wang Ju had quietly left the capital.
In fact, this is exactly what Wang Ju needs. It's best that the entire Great Song Dynasty feels sorry for him, then he is in the northwest, so no one will make a fuss.
However, Sima Guang and Wen Yanbo, the two old guys, have never died, but it made Wang Ju sick.
"It's Shaanzhou ahead," Wang Ju said to the concubine in the car.
This trip was relatively fast, but I just stayed in Sanmenxia for a while.
Sanmen Caoyun is the lifeblood of the future Northwest War. Wang Ju is also very concerned, but Fu Shaoting has done a good job in Sanmen. Wang Ju looked across the Yellow River, and the group quickly set off towards Shaanzhou.
From afar, a group of people greeted Shaanzhou.
Some people say that Wang Ju is magnificent, but some people say that Wang Ju is cautious. In fact, Wang Ju is really cautious.
Just like Taixue, Wang Anshi reformed the imperial examination, and Taixue was placed in a very important position.
But Wang Ju's younger brother, his son, was unfairly treated in Taixue.
Therefore, after Wang Ju came back this time, he reformed the imperial examination again, and it was not the original three-level imperial examination, not to mention the sixth-level imperial examination of Wang Anshi's people, but the fourth-level imperial examination, which happened to be once every three years, and the first year of the county held the children's examination, which was guaranteed by the professors of the county schools, if there were no county scholars, the county masters would check their knowledge, and then they would be guaranteed by these masters, then they could participate in the children's examinations, and no one could go to the imperial examinations, and with the guarantor, then some small or fugitives or people with bad character could not enter the examination room.
The goal of this is to further screen and reduce the burden of the test in various states, and now that the road traffic is backward, some students come from poor families and do not know the height of the sky, so they go to distant state towns to take the test, which has brought financial pressure to their families.
Now you don't need to go to the state city, you just need to go to the county seat. If you can't pass the children's exam, what are you talking about?
In the autumn of the second year, the examination was completed, and he was sent to the capital to participate in the provincial examination in winter, and in the spring of the third year, he participated in the palace examination.
But what the child wants is only a guarantor, regardless of whether he has studied in the county school or state, as long as there are no bad deeds in the past and there is a certain amount of knowledge, even if he is self-taught, he can participate.
In this reform, the imperial examination was more perfect, but Taixue was once again saddened......
There was also that time when Wang Ju came back from the south and was treated unfairly in Chengdu Prefecture, and the relevant officials, including the general sentence of Chengdu Mansion Road, as well as the promotion envoy and the transfer envoy or the prison envoy, were also treated coldly by the imperial court one by one.
So this time, where Wang Ju passed all the way, officials from various states and counties greeted him out of the city gate.
Wang Taibao, we are warmly welcome.
The governor of Shaanzhou is Wang Ju's old acquaintance, Zeng Bu and Sima Guang returned to their hometown, still restless, Wang Ju deliberately transferred Zeng Bu to Shaanzhou to fight poison with poison!
The two met and made a noise.
The next day, Wang Ju did something that no one could have imagined, and the family continued to stay in Shaanzhou, but Wang Ju crossed the Yellow River on horseback and came to Sima Guang's hometown, and then asked to see Sima Guang.
Sima Guang didn't come out, but he was also worried that Wang Ju would give him small shoes.
Although Wang Ju does not form a party, his current shadow power even surpasses that of Han Qi and Wen Yanbo at the beginning, and Zeng Bu, the governor of Shaanzhou, is a good friend of Wang Ju, who is also a villain. In fact, Sima Guang was wrong, although Wang Ju and Zeng Bu had known each other for a long time, their relationship had always been lukewarm, let alone good friends.
So Sima Guang closed the door and disappeared, but Sima Kang came out, he said: "My father is not feeling well, I hope the Taibao will forgive me." ”
In fact, even so, Sima Guang is equivalent to sweeping Wang Ju's face.
When the door closes, send an adopted son out the back door, what's the point?
However, in the heart of Sima Guang, who likes to show his qualifications, he thought that he had given Wang Ju face.
Wang Ju glanced at the villagers who came up and said, "Sima Gong said that if I go to Shaanxi, the Liao State will send troops to invade my Great Song Dynasty." I'm going to Shaanxi now to see if the Liao State will send troops to attack our Great Song Dynasty? ”
Whether to send troops, Wang Ju is not easy to say, but even if he sends troops, it will not be until Wang Ju officially invades Xia and Western Xia is in danger, and Liao may send troops.
There will definitely be no troops now, even if Wang Ju destroys Ali Gu, at most he may send that Khitan princess back.
Sima Kang said calmly: "Taibao is a very human minister, why bother with a dying old man? ”
After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and entered the house through the back door again.
Silence at this time is worth a thousand words...... But Wang Ju is not angry, there is a big drama waiting to be staged in the back, this old guy, don't anger him to death, Wang Ju is not at ease. (To be continued.) )
