When they could not answer questions from the official, everyone turned their attention to Gao Qiu. In the eyes of these civil officials who were born in Jinshi, Gao Qiu was a strange existence and despised him in his bones. Since this guy was digging his own pit, he would jump in by himself.

At this time, Gao Qiu was the first to find a crack in the ground to get into it. How could he know the level of Zhang Shuye's troops? At this time, he was a little resentful to Jiang Zhong. He didn't introduce Zhang Shuye in detail at the beginning. Now he knows nothing about the prefect of Haizhou, so how can he make a conclusion?

When Liangshan was recruited, Zhang Shuye and four other prefects led 30,000 imperial guards to monitor the Liangshan army to eliminate Fang La, and did not participate in the battle at all. Therefore, Gao Qiu was not very familiar with him.

Now he can only drive the ducks to the shelves. Gao Qiu gritted his teeth and started to speak: "Your Majesty, Wang Qing has been in Jiangnan for many years, and Song Jiang is also full of vicious thieves. If you want to suppress the rebellion, you need at least 100,000 imperial guards and 100,000 wing troops to fight together."

The military expenditure alone was astronomical. From this, Gao Qiu was ignorant. The number of imperial guards in local prefectures was limited. If the 100,000 imperial guards were mobilized from a large prefecture, at least four places were needed. If the 100,000 imperial guards were mobilized from a large prefecture, it would probably take eight or nine prefectures. In the Song Dynasty, 100,000 imperial guards were mobilized from one place, only the Western army on the capital and the Western front were impossible.

Song Huizong, the emperor of calligraphy and painting, knew nothing about military affairs. If it were Tong Guan, Cai Jing could discuss it. Of course, there was someone else to discuss it, that was Tan Zhen. However, this guy was sick at home. Now he still missed Cai Jing. With this old teacher there, there would be no such trouble.

"I sent an order to grant Zhang Shuye the pacification envoy of Jiangnan East Road and Jiangnan West Road, to control military affairs between the two routes, and to lead the Xiang army to quell the rebellion with 200,000."

At the critical moment, Song Huizong still saw the disadvantages of Zhang Shuye, a small prefect of Haizhou governing troops. The transfer of 100,000 imperial guards may not be able to play with them, so it was changed to 200,000 xiang army. However, this self-righteous Taoist Emperor did not know that Zhang Shuye was doomed to fail at the beginning and did not send 20,000 imperial guards to work.

As soon as the imperial edict was issued, Gao Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was no result in dealing with Jiang Zhong some time ago, he could now free up his hands to deal with this ungrateful guy.

The heavy rain continued, and the flood in Bianliang City did not retreat for half a month. Emperor Daojun finally couldn't hold on anymore, so he issued an order to let Prince Zhao Huan sacrifice to the sky.

The prince Zhao Huan didn't believe this at all, and refused it in his heart, so he delayed it repeatedly. Finally, under the reprimand of the official, the cowardly prince finally chose to sacrifice to the sky. Perhaps because of his intentional struggle, he actually chose to sacrifice to the sky at the Daxiangguo Temple, which completely angered Lin Lingsu.

Lin Lingsu, a very villain, did not expect that Prince Zhao Huan would embarrass him. At this time, he was too lazy to discuss with Jiang Zhong, so he mobilized his disciples and the believers began to fabricate rumors to secretly slander Prince Zhao Huan.

Jiang Zhong, who knew this scene, knew that the time was ripe, so he chose to visit Wang Fu. Now all the nodules need to be resolved by this versatile guy.

Wang Fu did not expect Jiang Zhong to come to visit him. He looked down on this vulgar guy at heart, but the gift this guy gave was too heavy and it was so heavy that it could not be refused. He had no choice but to meet him.

Jiang Zhong was bleeding a lot this time. Zhonglintang gave it to Zheng Juzhong, and Mingyuelou was to give it to Wang Fu, so this time it must have gained politically, otherwise it would be a big loss.

At night, Jiang Zhong personally visited Wang Fu.

In the reception room, Wang Fu had no intention of letting Jiang Zhong sit down at all.

Jiang Zhong was extremely angry inside. Mingyue Tower was worth at least one million yuan, and he couldn't get a sip of tea. He was not polite. After saluting, he sat directly next to Wang Fu, drinking tea while saying, "Now the Grand Master is not here, Wang Xianggong can be said to be powerful in the court and the people, covering the sky with only one hand."

"What do you want to say?" Wang Fu's face still had no expression, and there was contempt in his eyes. He said coldly: "If it's okay, just go back first. Imperial City and Liushemen will not cause trouble for you."

In Wang Fu's view, the Imperial City and Liushemen did not cause trouble, but they gave Jiang Zhong the rewards of Mingyue Tower, and both sides did not owe each other.

There is no such cheap thing in the world! After Jiang Zhong put down the teacup, he said slowly: "I still want to find trouble for the Imperial City and the Six Gate. This matter has nothing to do with Wang Xianggong. Today, what I want to say is that Wang Xianggong secretly surrendered to Wang Yun and desperately suppressed the prince. This time the prince sacrificed to heaven was planned by Jiang, and he was considered to give you a big gift."

"You are arrogant." Wang Fu didn't expect Jiang Zhong to speak so uncontrollably, and he felt very annoyed in his heart, and he also complained that the group of wastes in the Imperial City Department had not killed this villain.

"I wonder if Nie Shan becomes the young minister of Kaifeng Prefecture, is it a big gift?"

A small doctor from the Ministry of Personnel actually pointed at the position of Shaoyin of Kaifeng Prefecture, which was too overestimated.

Jiang Zhong knew that he couldn't continue to talk, and the other party would not trust him. He said, "Although King Yan was in the distance to take over the prefect of Kaifeng, it is well known that this is just a false position, and the one who is in power is the young master of Kaifeng. Within ten days, the young master of Kaifeng Prefecture Du Chong will be transferred, and the king of Yan will recommend Nie Shan. As for whether he can get to power, it depends on your operation of your grandfather. Okay, let's not talk about it, and the subordinate will say goodbye."

Nie Shan is Wang Fu's brother-in-law, and not many people know about this relationship, but King Yan Zhao Ya is one, which is no secret for Jiang Zhong.

On the third day after Jiang Zhong left Wang Fu's official residence, Xue Yongnian, the commander of the Imperial City Commander, was killed. News came from Kaifeng Prefecture that there were large-scale killings some time ago and four thousand corpses were found. These two horrifying events finally attracted the thunderous anger of the official family and directly demoted the Kaifeng Prefecture Young Mentor Du Chong.

King Yan Zhao Ya, who apologized for guilt, also recommended the right officer Nie Shan to serve as the young minister of Kaifeng Prefecture.

At this point, Wang Fu could not suppress Nie Shan, so he had to join forces with Li Bangyan, Zheng Juzhong, Bai Shizhong and others to push Nie Shan to the position of Shao Yin of Kaifeng Prefecture.

The biggest loss in the whole thing was the Yin Xiang Liang Shicheng, but now Tong Guan is far away in the northwest, Gao Qiu is bound by the Jiangnan War, and no one comes forward to fight for it, so he can only sacrifice Du Chong.

At this time, Wang Fu had seen Jiang Zhong's strength and understood that this guy must have something to ask for, so he chose to meet him at Mingyue Tower.

Now that he has become the owner of Mingyue Tower, Wang Fu chose to meet Jiang Zhong here, which is also a kind of show-off. He just wanted to see what medicine this young man sold in the gourd.

Although he was mentally prepared and knew that the other party had something to ask for, Wang Fu was still shocked after Jiang Zhong proposed it. He couldn't believe his ears and it took him a long time to react.

Wang Fu asked in confusion: "At the beginning, you tried hard to defeat the Grand Master Cai Jing, but now you want to restore him to the stage. I don't know what you think. It's rare that you think your father would agree to let him come back?"

"The two fight each other and the officials are in the family. This is the court. If Wang Xianggong is the only one, I'm afraid Cai Jing's present will be your future. Besides, Cao Caogong is over 70 years old and nearly 80 years old, and even if he comes up, he will go down in one or two years. On the stage, he will definitely cooperate with Wang Xianggong. The centipede will not be dead even if he dies. The old teacher's energy in the court and the country is far above you. If he knows that you are deliberately obstructing, what are the benefits of such a situation that will never stop?"

"Are you a Cai Jing lobbyist?"

"No, I am the one of King Yun. King Yun promised that as long as I complete this matter, I would arrange for me to meet with Emperor Jiade. In the future, I will go to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun to lay a solid foundation for marrying Emperor Jiade." Jiang Zhong knew that Wang Fu was very suspicious, so he threw out Emperor Jiade Zhao Yupan, making this cunning guy believe that he was just a love affair for the beauty, and was not a mature politician at all.

Wang Fu was suspicious of what Jiang Zhong said, but one thing was certain. This guy was indeed Wang Yun's person, and Wang Yun also expressed the idea of ​​letting this guy go to the Sixteen State of Youyun.

Seeing that Wang Fu was silent, Jiang Zhong continued, "Zhang Shuye led his army to fight against Wang Qing and could not extricate himself. It was only a matter of time before the defeat was defeated. The next step was to Taiwei Gao to quell the rebellion. He would never get up again if he went down this time. The position of the Pacification of the Privy Council should fall on He Guan's head. You will not suffer any losses in this transaction."

Wang Fu and He Guan are in-laws. If this matter works successfully, then the court will undergo a huge change. This is a bombshell thrown by Jiang Zhong. He doesn't believe that this old fox will not be blown up and cannot react.

"So your purpose is to pull Gao Taiwei down. Why did you do this?" At this time, Wang Fu understood that Jiang Zhong, the little fox, was drunk, was not about wine. Whether Cai Jing can be restored does not matter. The key is to pull Gao Qiu off.

Jiang Zhong said slowly: "I want to go to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. Anyone who stops me will be trampled. Besides, only if I go to the battle, then King Yun can truly suppress the prince. Otherwise, the trick will not be useful. The prince hates the prince to the core. Once the prince ascends the throne, you will probably be exiled to Shaman Island."

"Does Cai Jing have to restore the position?" Wang Fu finally defeated Cai Jing, so how could he let this old fox take power and seize power from himself?

"Cai Jing's restoration means the official." Jiang Zhong firmly rejected Wang Fu, and finally said: "But Mr. Wang don't have to worry. Cai Jing strives to support the prince. As long as the prince loses power, the old fox will not be able to make waves. Besides, Cai You will help you suppress the old fox. Even if he regains his position, he will not be able to stay for long."

That's right, Wang Fu had long known that the official family had the intention of letting Cai Jing regain the position of prime minister, but he had refused to admit it. Since he had reached this point, it was no big deal. He picked up the tea and said, "Zhang Shuye was defeated, Gao Qiu would go to the expedition. As for Cai Jing regaining the position of prime minister, let it go. By the way, you should go to He Guan more places. After all, if you want to go to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, you can't avoid the Privy Council."

Jiang Zhong stood up and said goodbye. He knew that Wang Fu was hinting that He Guan would take office, so that everything would come naturally, and everything else was empty talk.

Whether He Guan will rise to power depends on where the prince will eventually go in the upcoming storm. As this storm is brewing, the entire officialdom will also begin.

The prince sacrificed his sacrifice to the sky, and the flood receded. For a moment, the prestige of the prince Zhao Huan was unprecedentedly high. Liang Shicheng, Li Bangyan and others kept creating momentum for the prince, but these people did not know that the biggest crisis was brewing at this time.

The tabloids in the capital were flying all over the sky, pointing the finger at the prince Zhao Huan. On the surface, it was praising the glorious and great thing about the prince's sacrifice to the sky, but in fact, this kind of praising and killing trick was operated by Wang Fu.

Just as rumors were flying everywhere, Jiang Zhong visited Cai Jing, the old fox who lived in seclusion.

The simple and simple reception room makes people feel Cai Jing's treacherous, which ordinary people can't see, but Jiang Zhong knows that things that seem worthless are actually worthless when taken out. This kind of luxury in returning to nature and low-key was just invisible to the official residences of the Song Dynasty at that time. I'm afraid Cai Jing is the only one who is a scorpion.

The old thief Cai Jing still had a hypocritical smile on his face. He waved his hand and said to Jiang Zhong: "I am already in my twilight years and am about to be idled. I don't like luxury. I like this kind of tranquility, which makes you laugh."

"The nobles of the Grand Tutor are admired by the officials." Jiang Zhong gave Cai Jing the necessary respect, stood in front of the hall in a regular manner, not moving forward or overstepping, as if this was the most basic etiquette. He said softly: "I have pointed it out before, and I hope the old Grand Tutor will no longer care about it."

"You have something to be sorry for me, no, why don't I know?" Cai Jing deliberately slapped his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "Sit down and talk. I am old and can't remember many things."

Many things can be mentioned in one sentence, but on the core issues, the old thief still takes the initiative and does not take Jiang Zhong's hint at all. It seems that he is really dizzy and can't see anything.

Jiang Zhong cursed the old fox in his heart, and he said softly: "The dispute over Buddhism and Taoism is getting worse and worse. His Royal Highness of the Crown Prince celebrates the sky at the Daxiangguo Temple, which indicates that a new round of struggle has begun. On the surface, the prince is full of popularity, but in fact, there is a hidden crisis. The old master will not be unable to see this. In all dynasties, when the prince's limelight is getting more and more popular, it is not far from being suppressed. Although there are Liang Shicheng and Li Bangyan behind it, no one can resist this evil wind."

"I have retired and am old, so I can't take care of that much."

"The old god has shown goodwill. As long as the prince can openly suppress the Daxiangguo Temple, this dispute over Buddhism and Taoism will soon pass, and the regaining position of Taishi, you are just around the corner." Everyone is smart, there is no need to hide it. Jiang Zhong said bluntly: "The war in Jiangnan is getting more and more intense, and it is already in a rush. Zhang Shuye's defeat is a foregone conclusion. The next step depends on whether Taishi Gao Qiu can go to the battle. I believe that Taishi can control the direction."
