Chapter 744: Opportunity

Tong Guan was crowned as the Duke of Xu and Henan, led the Privy Council, and Xuanfu Hebei and Yanshan; Wang Hao rewarded the jade belt and purple flower robe, and was promoted to the title of Taifu, and was named the Duke of Chu, and the ceremonial guards such as chariots and horses, and attendants were almost the same as those of the prince; Cai Yu worshiped the Taibao and was named the Duke of England; and Tan Zhi was the privy deputy envoy and sat in the clouds. But when the edict was finished, he didn't hear the rewards of others, including the Seed Master Dao, which made the hundred officials fall to the ground.

Seed Master Dao himself has nothing, and it is already the greatest satisfaction to be able to leave a mark in the history books, but Seed Master Dao is a little puzzled by today's edict; people in the Privy Council, Seed Master Dao still knows a little bit of the situation, these days in the clouds, Youzhou's fast horses are almost non-stop, according to Wen Bohu's statistics, there are almost 20 copies of 800 miles of express newspapers a day, but these express reports are kept secret by the Zhongshu Province without exception, even the Privy Council has not seen it, Lan Congxi went to Wang Huang twice, all in vain.

The following early dynasties also had no content, and soon dispersed, but Zai Fu and the privy envoy and the six Shangshu were invited to the imperial study by He Su, and the seed master Dao found that Cai Jing and the crown prince Zhao Huan and King Jing Zhao Qi had been waiting here one step earlier; Song Huizong sat down on the dragon chair and signaled that Wang Hao could start.

Wang Hao said with a happy face: "We received news from Youzhou, the lord of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Aguda, devoted himself to cultivating immortals, and took his two sons Wanyan Zongwang and Jin Wushu to practice in Wanda Mountain after the sacrificial ceremony, and completely entrusted the state affairs to Wu Qimai; Li Gang said that Gao Qigong and others, who were originally stranded in Youzhou, had already decided to leave Youzhou for Liaoyang. ”

This is indeed good news, such a situation in a country, it is fortunate that there is no civil strife, and a room of people seems to see the prospect of the Jin Kingdom being depressed from now on; the crown prince Zhao Huan said: "I heard that there is a lot of movement in Yingzhou, and the elders of the Mirage Mansion have become Yang Zhi's house slaves, so a big show. ”

After Zhao Huan finished speaking, he suddenly found that no one responded, Bai Shizhong sighed secretly in his heart, because of this, these bigwigs in the DPRK and China are not fools, it is better not to provoke Yang Zhi or not, lest it end badly if Yang Zhi is forced to come out bloody. Song Huizong broke the silence and said with a smile: "Yang Zhi is still talented, and the poems that accompany Li Dimo's bamboo pictures are not bad; Yang Zhi has a heart for the people, and Yingzhou has never been less in taxes or money handed over to the national treasury, which can be regarded as the only one in the sixteen states of Yanyun. ”

Song Huizong was exempted from tax for three years, which was addressed to the people of the sixteen states of Yanyun, and included the commercial tax on the border; however, Li Gang and Tan Zhi did not make any contributions, and only Zong Ze, Wang Ping, Yang Zhi, and Wang Huan handed over the four people in each state, and Yang Zhi paid the most. The problem is that Yingzhou, Ulzhou and other places managed by these four people are not the closest to the border, and the scale cannot be compared with Youzhou, Pingzhou, Datong, Zhuozhou and other places, Song Huizong is not stupid, he can guess how much the tax revenue of Yanyun's sixteen states should be, and he can see who is a little sincere to himself.

Tong Guan grinned, there was no squeak, he still knew the reason, all the benefits of Youzhou, Pingzhou and other places were used by Guo Yaoshi and Zhang Jue to expand the army, Datong Mansion is Tan Zhi is too greedy, but Tong Guan has benefited from Guo Yaoshi and others, and there is filial piety every month, so naturally he will not reveal the truth. Wang Hao nodded and said: "What the Holy Lord said is extremely true, this is a trivial matter, you can talk about it later, Captain Tong made a suggestion yesterday, taking advantage of the chaos behind the Jin Kingdom, our army will continue to go north." ”

Continuing to go north, it is to attack Liaoyang and other places; the ministers understood, no wonder Song Huizong would be sealed today, which was actually a recognition of Tong Guan's suggestion. Tong Guan originally wanted to straighten his chest and show off a few words, but seeing Cai Jing's flat face, Tong Guan still said very carefully: "Li Gang and Tan Zhi have a plan, that is, to take advantage of the opportunity that Xixia and Yelu Dashi have given up Yelu Yanxi to recruit Yelu Yanxi, even if there are only 100,000 soldiers and civilians, Yelu Yanxi can go to Linhuang Mansion and other places with Xiao Gan to make trouble, our purpose is to go out of Pingzhou and capture Liaoyang Mansion." ”

Seed Master Dao frowned and said: "Tai Lieutenant, the national war is not a trivial matter, when the Jin Kingdom is rising, the famous generals are like clouds, and the army is a strong force that will not be defeated in a hundred battles, we are sure enough to drag them down economically, why bother to be quick for a while, even if the capture of Liaoyang is just an appetizer before the war." Now bandits are rampant in Hebei, Yang Jiang, Zhang Di, Li Cheng and others are troubled everywhere, and the people are struggling to make a living. ”

The words of the seed master made Song Huizong and Tong Guan unhappy, and Tong Guan scolded: "As a general, how can you be so timid, this time you don't need it, the prince has already suggested that Liu Yanqing and Guo Yaoshi be the rulers of the capital." As for the bandits in Hebei, Xin Xingzong, Yang Weizhong and others will be pacified in a few days, and time will come in time. ”

Wang Hao and Li Bangyan were both stunned, they didn't expect to continue to start Liu Yanqing, Wang Hao suddenly had the idea of retreating, the battle of Youzhou, Liu Yanqing's 200,000 army in the face of 10,000 Liao troops is not an opponent, Liaoyang has at least 3 to 50,000 gold troops, Liu Yanqing and Guo Yaoshi If 300,000 or 400,000 people can fight, how much military pay and materials will cost, both of them understand that after Hebei is pacified, a large amount of pacification costs are needed, and Zhongshu Province cannot raise this money.

Wang Hao and the others made up their minds not to interject, Zhang Bangchang and the others wanted to speak but didn't know where to start, and the scene was quiet for a while; King Jing Zhao Qi was very surprised about the performance of the Zai Fu, why did they all suddenly become a closed gourd, so he asked Shangshu Zuocheng and Hubu Shangshu Zhao Ye: "Is Hebei very chaotic now?"

Zhao Ye understood that what Zhao Qi was asking was not chaos, but Cao Yun and money, and replied: "This year's earthquake in Beijing, Hedong, Shaanxi and other places really needs a large amount of money for disaster relief, but Li Xiaochang, the deputy envoy of Jingdong Transport, is recruiting 50,000 people including Zhang Wanxian in Zhao'an, and Qian Boyan in Haizhou is recruiting 100,000 people including Jia Jin in Shandong, plus the good news from Hebei, it is estimated that Cao Yun will soon be normal." ”

Zhao Ye didn't say anything to death, Cao Yun's normal luck does not mean that he is rich, the crown prince Zhao Huan nodded and said: "Guo Yaoshi said that he only needs Jingshi to transport 500,000 rice to Youzhou." ”。

Wang Hao still didn't say anything, the pit in front of him was too big, Wang Hao suddenly had a sense of fear; Song Huizong sighed and said, "Wang Xiang and General Chong should go back first." ”

Wang Hao's face changed greatly, he didn't expect Song Huizong's attitude to be so resolute; Two hours later, news came out from the imperial court that Wang Hao, the breeder Dao Zhishi, Cai Jing returned to act as prime minister, Liang Fangping was responsible for arresting thieves in Shandong and Hebei, and Meng Kucuo, the squire of the Ministry of Industry, purchased grain and grass.
