"If a person has no trust, he will not stand. If he is like this, the court should do this even more. Lord Wang is always playing with power, indulging in troubled people, and taking advantage of the robbery. I would like to ask the people of Youzhou to return to the court? How can you govern Youzhou if you are unpopular? The old minister begs Your Majesty to put national laws first and the court's credit first, and you can no longer indulge Wang Ning'an!"

Fu Bi was confident that since the Northern Tour, the conflict between him and Wang Ning'an has become increasingly fierce. In the war, in order to restore Youzhou, he could still work together. However, when it comes to how to govern Youzhou, the two of them went in the opposite direction, and a decisive battle was inevitable.

Wang Ning'an was not in Youzhou. As his iron-kick, Zhao Zongjing was not afraid of Fu Bi.

"The rich husband has to follow the scriptures and the powers. You always say that it is the national law. This place in Youzhou has just joined the court. Can it be the same as other places? There is nothing wrong with Lord Wang's actions. It is you who indulge in the gentry and landlords. Don't forget that decades ago, these people stood on the side of Empress Dowager Xiao. Emperor Taizong failed the two northern expeditions, and they were guilty!"

Zhao Zongjing has often dealt with Su Shi and Foyin in recent years. The three of them often gathered together once, eating meat and drinking. Both of them were both verbal and Zhao Zongjing could always learn a little bit of the bottom line.

When it comes to confront Fu Bi, they are also in one set of ways.

But the rich husband is not easy to deal with. "The prince is so bad. As the saying goes, do not do to others what he does not want others to do to you. If Youzhou is included in the territory of the Song Dynasty, it should be treated equally and behave in a bowl of water. Only in this way can people convince people. The scholars in Youzhou have indeed had a mistake of being rebellious, but the court can forgive them generously. Wouldn't these people be more grateful and loyal to the court!"

"Hmph! I'm talking lightly. Who knows if they have a conscience? Rich husband, do you dare to guarantee these people? What if they betray the court and chop your head?"

"you……"

Fu Bi was immediately angry, what a Zhao Zongjing, don’t think you are a royal family, you should act voluntarily.

The emperor cannot easily be rude to the prime minister. You, a junior of the royal family, are so arrogant. It seems that you learned from Wang Ning'an, and you are bold and arrogant!

Fu Bi wanted to impeach Zhao Zongjing, but Zhao Zhen suddenly waved his hand.

"My rich man, don't have to argue anymore, let me think about this."

Send both of them away.

Zhao Zhen fell into deep thought.

Wang Ning'an and Fu Bi represent two paths.

Fu Bi's idea was very clear, that is, to be appointed as an official and make a wish, to open an imperial examination, to win over scholars and landlords, to stabilize the upper class, and the place would be peaceful.

This item has been used in the Han and Tang dynasties, and has also had good results... But doing this will also cause troubles. For example, the Han and Tang dynasties experienced the internal migration of barbarians and conflicts with the Han people. One caused the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China, and the other caused the Anshi Rebellion. It can be said that the future troubles are endless.

Of course, Youzhou is different from other places. The people here are originally Han men, and it may not be impossible to win over by bribing and winning over them.

As for Wang Ning'an's method, it is simple and crude, and completely subverted.

The original Khitan nobles had to deal with it, and the landlords and gentry of the Han family had to be cleaned up and killed all the upper-class figures. Starting from the bottom, we allocated land, rebuilt the education system, and cultivated the Han soul.

Relatively speaking, Wang Ning'an's movements are bigger, he consumes more effort, and his destructive power is more amazing.

Take this for less than three months.

Wang Ning'an dealt with thousands of Khitan nobles, sent more than 3,000 people, imprisoned more than 200 Han gentry, and some gentry took their family thugs across the Great Wall and fled to the Liao Kingdom again. This number was more than 10,000.

On the surface, Wang Ning'an was in chaos and panic. If Murong Qingchen and others had not led the troops and strongly suppressed them, there would have been chaos.

But is there nothing good about Wang Ning'an's approach?

Zhao Zhen didn't think so. He had been to Pingxian and witnessed the miracle of Pingxian with his own eyes. He was shocked. Pingxian's success stems from a piece of white paper.

A flood eight years ago destroyed all the rules, leaving only hundreds of thousands of extremely poor people.

Wang Ning'an led these people to develop industries, build cities, accumulate wealth, work hard, and everything starts from scratch.

In just seven or eight years, Ping County has the highest industry in the world and Ping County's people's livelihood in the world! It is not even comparable to Bianjing!

In the Battle of Restoring Yanyun, Pingxian's ordnance workshops produced more than 70% of weapons and 90% of carriages and sleds, all of which were made in Pingxian.

He even mobilized 50,000 civilians, collected 1.5 million stones of food, and called 500 ships...

Behind the amazing data is Pingxian’s huge and terrible mobilization ability!

What is the mystery of the reason?

It is because Ping County has no gentry and landlords, and there are only industrial and commercial groups, as well as market-oriented farmers and manor owners... Their ability to create wealth and organize and mobilize is ten times or a hundred times that of traditional gentry groups!

It is precisely because of this that Pingxian relied on the power of a county to assume half of the responsibility of restoring Youzhou.

Facts outweigh words.

Wang Ning'an's ability to manage the local area is far beyond what ordinary people can compare to.

He was just trying to turn Youzhou into Pingxian, abolish all the rules and start from scratch.

There are 5 million people in Youzhou, 25 times that of Pingxian at the time!

If this power is released, I am afraid that relying on Youzhou alone can recover Yunzhou and destroy the Liao Kingdom!

As the Emperor, how could Zhao Zhen not be moved?

"Go and call Zong Jing over."

Without much effort, Zhao Zongjing rushed over panting.

"I pay homage to the saint."

Zhao Zhen said: "You accompany me to Luanzhou for a visit."

"I obey the order, should I notify Lord Wang?" Zhao Zongjing said curiously.

"No need, I just want to see what tricks this kid can do for me!"

I have to say that Zhao Zhen likes to see it in person more and more. Just sitting at home as an otaku, he can do whatever he says when he hears what the people below say. It is easy to be deceived!

Listen to Fu Bi’s wrong, listen to Wang Ning’an’s wrong, listen to something really useful!

Zhao Zongjing was very confident in his brothers. Just look at it. With his brother's ability, he could not defeat Fu Bi? This dull guy did not notify Wang Ning'an in advance. He only brought 200 Japanese troops to call Yang Huaiyu and protected Zhao Zhen, so he went to Luanzhou.

I just experienced the war and the place was very dilapidated. After leaving Youzhou, there were people begging for food everywhere. There were many helpless refugees on the road. They ran to Youzhou, and only here could eat.

Many people starve to death and freeze to death on the road.

Along the way, you can see many human traffickers. They took advantage of the opportunity to go to Youzhou and bargained with the refugees. A small bag of rice and a few sesame cakes could be exchanged for a big girl. A two or three-year-old boy was also very popular. If he kidnapped and sold it to a rich family without children, he would definitely make a fortune.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen's face became gloomy.

Fu Bi told him that local people are at peace and people are at peace with their own affairs. Is this what it is like?

Zhao Zhen was furious and asked someone to call Fu Bi.

The rich husband rushed over and couldn't hold his face when he saw His Majesty's appearance as if he was cannibalizing.

"The old minister immediately arranged disaster relief matters, asked all places to distribute food, open porridge factories, and help the people." Fu Bi pondered for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, it was inevitable that the people would be displaced after just experiencing the war, and some refugees were inevitable."

Zhao Zhen took a deep breath and said nothing.

He thought he would have to take a closer look.

...

Continue moving forward, after passing Shunzhou and Tanzhou, he entered Jizhou, which is also the area assigned to Wang Ning'an.

Zhao Zhen observed carefully and soon discovered a different place.

There are not so many refugees in Jizhou. On the contrary, there are many busy people in the fields. In February and March, the wind is cold and there is still some snow in the shade, but it does not hinder the enthusiasm of the people.

Many people get up before dawn, go to the ground to clear withered artemisia, dig water diversion canals, and dig wells and trenches in some places... they are very busy.

Even the children were not idle. They held whips, chased cattle and sheep, ate the weeds on the ground, and there was a thrilling scene wherever they went.

Zhao Zhen saw it and couldn't help but be surprised.

According to the memorial description, Shunzhou and Tanzhou are prosperous and peaceful, and the people are happy. Luanzhou and Jizhou are in chaos and chaos, but when they really come down, the situation is completely different.

This slap was a bit fierce!

That guy Zhao Zongjing kept looking at Fu Bi, thinking to himself, old guy, you want to compete with my brother, you are too different. Fu Bi's face is also not good-looking, and he couldn't figure it out, why is the gap so big?

Would the gentry rebel for the things Wang Ning'an did?

Why can’t you see any mess? It’s so strange!

Fu Bi couldn't figure it out.

Zhao Zhen no longer had the heart to pay attention to him. He heard it as a false voice, but saw it as a true witness. That night, Zhao Zhen lived in Xingtang. He invited several old peasants, but he did not have the identity of Emperor Liang. He only said that he was the censor of the Song Dynasty and came to visit the people's sentiments.

"You all tell the truth, what is the difference between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty? Who do you think is better?"

The old farmer was still a little scared. When facing the officials, he was uneasy, and Zhao Zhen smiled kindly.

"Don't be afraid of anything you say, the person who speaks is innocent."

One of the old farmers said with courage: "There is no better Liao dog than the Song Dynasty! In the Liao Kingdom, we Han people are dogs. Only when we return to the Song Dynasty can we stand up straight and be human beings!"

Zhao Zhen smiled and encouraged, "Say something specific."

"That's too much!"

A few old farmers opened up their conversation. One sentence of your words, one sentence of mine, is one sentence that the Song Dynasty gave them land! Many people passed down from generation to generation, let alone the fields, there was not even a beast!

They just act as tenants and slaves for the Khitans, and they live worse than animals!

The Song Dynasty is so good. It is a kindness to allocate them land and cattle and sheep. It is a kindness of greatness... Several old farmers have no idea to thank the court. They all say that being Han people is good. They have surrendered to Liao dogs before and lost people to their ancestors. This time they have to reform themselves and be loyal to the court forever.

Zhao Zhen smiled and said that after listening to the old farmers, he wanted to give them some money. The old farmers refused, saying that they had good hands and feet, and now that they had fields, they could earn themselves, and their lives would only get better and better!

After sending the person away, Zhao Zhen didn't say a word, but just looked at Fu Bi meaningfully. At this time, Fu Gong only felt that his old face was hot and he was beaten a little painful!
