Chapter 151: The minister invites Hongzhou to remain unchanged for three years!
Tokyo, Funde Temple.
Zhao Heng, who had just finished his day's court meeting, came here to rest for a while, and discussed with Wang Qinruo, a Grand Secretary of the Zizheng Hall who had just returned from Chuzhou, about the matter of Fengshan in the Heavenly Book of Heaven.
In the latter's heavenly book compiled by Zhao Heng, Zhao Heng was praised as the number one saint in history who was rare in heaven and never on earth, so Wang Qinruo put forward such a suggestion.
"Your Majesty is a saint king who has never been seen for thousands of years. His ministers are not talented. He dares to ask for his orders for the people of the world. I hope that your Majesty will be in the east for Mount Tai and worship the heaven and earth. In order to follow the will of heaven and the people, my great Song Dynasty will last for thousands of years."
Zhao Heng showed a little moved, but after a long time he sighed and shook his head and said, "No."
"Why can't it be?"
Wang Qinruo, who just came back by flattering, could not miss such an opportunity? As long as he could instigate Zhao Heng to follow the Fengshan Mountain, his contribution to flattering is no less than that of following the dragon. With Zhao Heng's emotional personality, he will definitely be rewarded so that he can be expected to reach a higher level.
So Wang Qinruo thought of trying to persuade Zhao Heng again for his humility, but heard Zhao Heng sigh.
"I just signed a peace agreement with the Khitans in Chanzhou. Although this move has protected the peace of the people on the frontier, it has insulted the country's system. Moreover, there is another Luo Ni on the Jiangnan Road. Even if you turn your tail to promote monsters and steal wolf hearts, you will be in chaos. If the country is unstable, how can I have to stand up to promote the Fengshan ceremony?"
"Why did your Majesty say this?"
Wang Qinruo choked and fell to the ground, and in a moment he cried bitterly: "Last year, Your Majesty did not hesitate to defend the peace of the country, and his Majesty personally led the army to fight. His guns were like forests and arrows were like rain. Only because there were hundreds of millions of people behind him, Your Majesty commanded the army to fight without taking a step back, and then he achieved the great victory in Yingzhou.
If Kou Yi had not advocated peace and shaken the morale of the army, my Song Erlang would have long been restored to the sixteen states of Yanyun under the command of His Majesty! In this matter, all the civil and military officials and soldiers of the three armies could have justified His Majesty's reputation.
Besides, when the rebellion of Jiangnan, the Majesty was shining with His Majesty’s power, I expected that the rebels would be eliminated soon and the crazy bandits would disappear. Therefore, I dared to persuade You Majesty again and asked His Majesty to visit Mount Tai in the east and hold a Fengshan ceremony."
Seeing Wang Qinruo crying so hard, Zhao Heng was also soft-hearted and stepped forward to help the former and hold his hand tightly and said, "There are only hundreds of millions of people in the world, but I only know my hardships best."
Everyone knows that the word "Love" is wrong, because this word is only used when the emperor tells the concubines in the harem, and where can the ministers be prefixed with the word "Love"?
But it’s not impossible to force it to use it. Although it’s stingy, he’s kind.
Zhao Heng felt like this now. He regarded Wang Qinruo as his confidant, and even said the only beloved in the world who understands my suffering best.
"The alliance in Chanzhou was all advocated by Kou Pingzhong. The people were ignorant and ignorant, and they were compiled by wolves and even falsely, and they were falsely abominable on my head. Alas." Zhao Heng raised his head slightly, not letting tears fall: "But I am the king and father of the world. Although Kou Gui is a little bigger, I also regard him as a baby born in his own country. I have to resist such a bad reputation with all my strength."
"Your Majesty is kind and righteous!" Wang Qinruo was suddenly heartbroken, feeling his heart was as if he was squeezing his sword, and hugged Zhao Heng's thigh and burst into tears: "I have accumulated so much blessing in my previous life that I am so lucky to be Your Majesty's minister and serve you at the official."
The king and his minister were getting tilted, so Zhang Qi walked in from outside quickly. This scared Wang Qinruo, who was crying, and hurriedly got up to wipe his tears in order to ensure his demeanor, scolding Zhang Qi in his heart for being the wrong time.
"Official family, Kou Xiang is back."
A sentence made Zhao Heng, who was a little disobedient and was tidying up his appearance, stunned and turned his head in shock: "What did you say? Who is back?"
"Kou Xiang."
After confirming that it was indeed Kou Jun, Zhao Heng shivered and asked anxiously, "But Jiangnan was defeated."
It's only been a month since I went south of Beijing.
Zhao Heng is ready to fight a protracted war, and he has to carry it even if Kou Shin fought for three years.
But I never expected that Kou Laoxi was so useless and was defeated after a long time.
"It's not a defeat, it's a great victory." Zhang Qi bowed with a smile: "Congratulations to the officials, Kou Xiang, Jiangnan, Fu, Gan, Ji and other six states that were captured by the pseudo-Chu regime were fully recovered. The thief chief Luo Yongsheng escaped with only a hundred people. At this moment, Kou Xiangzheng ordered the three armies to pursue them."
Restoring the six states and returning to the court with great victory?
This surprise came too fiercely. Zhao Heng felt a little lack of oxygen. He reached out and pinched Wang Qinruo's arm, causing the latter to jump in pain.
Not a dream!
Zhao Heng was so happy that he laughed to the sky on the spot: "Hahaha, Kou Xiang is worthy of being the pillar of our country's dynasty, and I am the Dinghai Sword of the Song Dynasty."
OK, it seems that Zhao Laosan has read Luo Yongsheng's version of "Journey to the West" a lot on weekdays, and even knows the Dinghai Shen Needle.
"Hurry, please come here, please come here."
Zhao Heng was happy, but Wang Qinruo, who was grinning in pain, was not happy at all. He was a mortal enemy of Kou Shi, and the latter has made great achievements now, so he can't mention the jealousy in his heart.
But no matter how jealous he is, to be honest, Wang Qinruo is still quite afraid of Kou Qu.
Who made the latter really fucking amazing?
Less than a month after leaving Beijing, the pseudo-Chu regime in Jiangnan, which was so disturbing?
Thinking about how he was talking badly about Kou Qi behind his back, Wang Qinruo couldn't stand it and said, "I'll leave first."
Zhao Heng then remembered that there was another Wang Qinruo coming. He was about to ask the latter to leave, but then he said again.
"Don't worry, let's wait for the time being after entering the screen. After I meet the enemy, we, the king and the minister, can talk about Fengshan again."
The disaster in Jiangnan has been settled, so how can we not be able to surrender Mount Tai?
Wang Qinruo's heart was shaking, and four big words instantly appeared in his mind.
Kill the donkey with a mill!
There are two prerequisites for Fengshan Mountain: one is to suppress the pseudo-Chu, and the other is of course to throw the blame on the Chanzhou Alliance on Kou Yan's head.
Thinking of this, Wang Qinruo looked at the back of Zhao Heng who was walking towards the gate of the palace with a smile on his face and was about to welcome Kou Yan, and a chill rose in his heart.
The emperor is the emperor.
Even the powerful prime minister like Kou Yan was just like a chamber pot in the eyes of the emperor, and life, death, honor and disgrace were all in hand.
Wang Qinruo, who didn't dare to think too much, hurriedly hid behind the screen and listened honestly to the movement outside.
"I, please see my emperor."
Under Zhang Qi's guidance, to be precise, Kou Yan walked into Wende Hall with a sluggish expression and bowed to Zhao Heng. Long live to speak before the latter could help him up enthusiastically.
"Kou Prime Minister, Kou Prime Minister, since I left the capital, I have thought about evil spirits for more than twenty days."
Zhao Heng's eyes were filled with tears. Seeing Kou Wei's face was pale, he was shocked: "Why is your expression so bad? Zhang Qi, go and pass it on to the imperial physician."
"Your Majesty, don't be surprised, I am not seriously injured."
Kou Wei wanted to refuse, but heard Zhao Hengyan say, "Nothing is better than Qing's body. When the imperial physician comes to take the pulse for you, I will listen again. I will never leave you by your side."
Kou Wei was so moved that he felt that his heart was frozen in Nanchang, and he spoke several times but was only choked up with emotion and could only say the previous sentence in a muffled voice.
The imperial physician came very quickly, and with one hand, he could tell Kou's pulse.
"Kou Xiang was so angry that he was so angry that he had never had a good rest before so he was like this. I will prescribe two prescriptions to relieve my heart and keep Kou Xiangan safe for a while."
"Okay, okay, then I'll feel relieved."
He sent the imperial physician to go down to get the medicine, and Zhao Heng sent Zhang Qi away: "Go to my treasury to get some good tributes, Ganoderma lucidum and other items. You must get the best ones. Then let Prime Minister Kou bring them when he returns home."
Seeing Zhao Heng busy for his health, Kou Yan was moved and knelt down with his robe and shouted: "Relying on the power of our emperor, Kou Yan, I, don't let down the sage, and I will not let down the sage's order. This time, I will pacify the pseudo-Chu and restore the six states. This is my honor and honor. Long live my emperor."
"Kou Xiang is about to rise."
Zhao Heng wanted to help Kou Yan, but saw that the latter took out a blood-stained list from his arms.
"I dare to ask for it. I hope Your Majesty will agree first, and I will be willing to rise."
This kind of threatening words made Zhao Heng a little dissatisfied, especially the blood-stained list made Zhao Heng unable to figure out what object it was.
What if there are a large number of famous soldiers who have fallen into battle, Kou Shi will ask for a sky-high price of pensions?
The Song Dynasty was rich, but the landlords had no surplus food.
"My dear, get up first." Zhao Heng was unwilling to respond in one go, so he asked Kou Shi to stand up: "Kou Qing has made extraordinary achievements this time, and I have to agree to the great things, and I will say."
Kou Yan said thanking and getting up, but said so.
"I heard a story in Jiangnan and was puzzled. I wanted to ask Your Majesty to answer my questions."
After a long time of trouble, just to solve the problem?
Zhao Heng was very calm, so he pulled Kou Yan to sit down and said as he walked: "Please tell me, I will wash my ears and listen quietly."
"There is a beggar in Hongzhou City who begs for food every day in front of the brothel in the city. When he saw the rich businessmen spending money to fight for the beautiful woman's laughter, he was very envious. On the other day, the beggar encountered wealthy money on the road, so he also went to the brothel to buy spring, with wine and meat filling his stomach, and the beauties were in his arms. Seeing that the beggar was about to taste the beauty. When the clouds and rains in Wushan, a team of yamen rang out of the brothel, took away all the money from the beggar, and made him beg for life.
I dare to ask Your Majesty how the beggar will act."
Zhao Heng frowned and snorted angrily: "How can these damn yamen runners bully at will because of their despicable status before, and not telling bad things about others, so how can they order people to beg for life because of their despicable status?
It is important to know that there are also heroes among the grassroots. They may not be able to serve the country in the future and kill the enemy on the frontier."
"I just want to know how beggars should act according to what His Majesty sees."
Zhao Heng thought for a long time and said, "I'm afraid I'll feel hatred. If I find a good opportunity, I will take revenge on these yamen runners."
"Your Majesty's wise!" Kou Yan knelt down again with a thud, and said, "I would like to ask your Majesty to keep it unchanged for three years in Kuanhongzhou!"
Zhao Heng was confused by the three-year unchanged sentence of Hongzhou, and he asked what he meant.
Kou Yan looked up and begged.
"Please use the system of fake Chu to manage Hongzhou."
Zhao Heng was stunned at first, then furious: "Fart!"
Although I don’t know what the system of the fake Chu system is, Zhao Heng subconsciously cursed and said that he was fartful.
"Hongzhou is my Hongzhou, and the Hongzhou of the Song Dynasty. How can it be controlled by the pseudo-Chu?" Zhao Heng might feel that his fart was a bit out of tune, but he was angry but did not forget to help Kou Yan up: "Kou Qing can say that the size of the pseudo-Chu system, I can make some adjustments to be more lenient than the people."
"The gentry collected food together, abolished the system of host and guest, five households and other households."
Zhao Heng, who was about to drink water to moisten his throat, froze.
