"This is what I asked the officials not to check."

Zhang Feng was stunned.

This kind of land is not good to cover the sky. If it is not done well, it will cause the court to suspect Wang Ju. In fact, there is no land is not enough, and some people will be worried about Wang Ju. No matter what, Wang Ju holds too many elite soldiers and generals in his hand at this time. Even if he and Wang Ju are in the world, the relationship between him and Wang Ju is well known to the world. Moreover, the army of Hedong Road itself needs to cooperate with Wang Ju to use troops to the Western Xia and deal with possible Liao troops.

Once many people suspect and there are too many variables, don’t say that the emperor believes in Wang Ju, the three of them say that they are tigers!

"Brother Zhifu, what do you think you should do? Look at how many people have been arrested by Mr. Jiefu's reform?"

In order to vilify Wang Anshi's reform, some people do everything they can. The most typical example is the case of cursing the prince and the incident in Dongming County.

Wang Anshi had no choice but to dispatch the "Da Nei Spy" of the Imperial City Department and once arrested countless people in the capital.

However, Mao Yong, at most, in the case of cursing the prince, he dealt with two big guns, and no one of the big bosses behind him was moved. Instead, the more people he arrested, the more people opposed the reform.

Of course, there are still some differences in the nature of the two. This year is particularly important. Whether the Song Dynasty can truly revive and whether it can be truly "real" depends on this year. Therefore, just like Fan Chunren was worried, if Wang Juposit would pursue the matter, even if Wen Yanbo was in his hometown, he could find out the punishment, and at least he could be demoted to a certain state to regulate. Don't ask about evidence, at this critical moment, there is no need for evidence!

If the court did this, it would be a disguised support for Wang Ju.

So Zhang Shi said: "The two are somewhat different."

"My husband, if the moon is full, the water is full, the water is full, it is overflowing. Too perfect may not be a good thing, so Xiao He is defiled." Wang Ju said it implicitly. In fact, he meant that everything has two sides. Although this rumor and prophecy is not very good, if you analyze it in turn, you will have this rumor and prophecy, like a thorn on your back, which may reduce Zhao Xu's suspicion.

"And, I said that the government is angry, so we must stop at the right time. Besides, the Xixia used Zi'an's merit to surpass Jinu, and directly defeated Helan and became the mainstay to distract the truth of our monarch and ministers. Then ninety percent of people would have doubts about this earth-covered world."

"That's it?"

"It's just like this, but it can't be just like this." Wang Ju kept a secret and changed the topic: "What news can the north find out?"

"The news on the side of the Bu Bu is not very good. His leader Yu Guhao worships the Lord of Liao many times. The year before yesterday, Yu Guhao and another leader loved him and worships the Lord of Liao in Xia Nabo of Liao. The Lord of Liao felt his loyalty and ordered the King of Yan Yelu Yanxi to be friends with him."

Yelu Yanxi was the future Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom, the last emperor, and the current crown prince of the Liao Kingdom.

Wang Ju frowned.

The reason why Wang Ju asked Zhang Ju to inquire about the news about Zubu was because in the Liao Dynasty, there were not many Jurchens in recent years, but Ugu enemy Lie and Zubu were turbulent many times.

The reason is the same as the Jurchens. One is the pain of tribute. Every year, the divination requires tribute to the Liao Kingdom a large number of annual tribute horses, camels, marten rat skins, green rat skins and other goods. The other is the greed of the military governors and generals of the three states of Zhenfangwei.

What is actually tribute, really can't be a big deal, just like the Song Dynasty, Khitan, Xi people, Han people, and Bohai people as the main body of the Liao Kingdom, they don't need to pay tribute, but they will pay taxes!

In fact, the main reason for the rebellion in various marginal areas is the greed of officials and generals, which has caused many contradictions.

Regarding this point, Wang Ju repeatedly emphasized that the imperial court can add additional salary to the officials and garrisons in various barbarian areas, but must not disturb the people, and law enforcement and mediation are fair, otherwise it will be dealt with more severely.

The Song Dynasty was constantly making mistakes in this, let alone the relatively backward Liao Kingdom.

Wang Ju didn't expect the Bu Bu to turn against him, but as long as he heard that the relationship between Bu Bu and Khitan was bad, he could send envoys to Bu Bu and promised some benefits for them. The reason was simple. As long as the Liao Kingdom wanted to support Xixia, their main army was dragged down by the Jurchens, and they would inevitably be transferred from Bu Bu. The Bu Bu people may not dare to ignore the orders, but as long as the Bu Bu is obscene, the difficulty and unpredictability of the attack on Xixia will be reduced.

In fact, Wang Ju didn't remember much. In the future, a remarkable person appeared, who almost dragged the Liao Kingdom into the sea decades ahead of schedule.

However, it is not a fault for the scouts being weak. After all, there is a Xixia gap between them. If Xixia can be taken down, the scouts may be able to find out about this character, or the character will actively contact the Song Dynasty, but it is like a sea separated by Xixia.

"As for the Yeluna scout in Yunzhou, he also heard some news. He heard that this man, Ji's father, Yelu Zhaosan, had made military achievements in suppressing the rebellion of the enemy harem in Wugu, and was appointed as the King of the Northern Court by the Liao Kingdom. This man is both civil and military, and his martial arts are not easy to say, but it is not easy to underestimate the people. Because he is honest, kind to the people, and just to make justice to the case, he is known for his favorable politics and is loved by the people in Yunzhou. But what is interesting is that this man's father, Yelu O, was killed by the people of Xixia when he followed Liao Xingzong to fight against Xixia."

Although it is interesting, in front of the country, it is impossible to sit idly by the Song Dynasty to annihilate the Western Xia for the sake of family feud.

The Liao Kingdom was established for a long time, and the weakness of the Song Dynasty before, it lost its cohesion to the Han people abroad, so it was difficult for the Youyun people to rebel. On the other hand, Wang Ju did not think about regaining the several states of Yunshuo, the mountain behind the mountain, so Yeluna also loved the people and had little effect on intelligence.

Even if the Liao Kingdom sent troops to support the Western Xia, it would have to wait until the Song Dynasty officially launched troops. It was impossible to transfer troops to Yunshuo in this ice and snowy land, and there were also Jurchens dragging them.

As for other information about the work, the scouts did not find out.

But it was not that Zhang Feng was incompetent. The most powerful information of the Song Dynasty was when Zhao Kuangyin was when the Liao Kingdom had not yet been in Hebei. The Song Dynasty heard the news that before the Liao army reached the border, Tian Qinzuo had already led thousands of cavalry to the front line. Therefore, during the reign of Emperor Taizu of Song, the Song Dynasty defeated the Liao army many times.

By the time of Zhao Kuangyi, restrictions on military generals became increasingly strict, not only were restrictions on rights, but also on money. Well, the intelligence system was quickly corrupted.

Although Wang Ju once again paid attention to intelligence, the main target was Xixia. Zhang Yue was transferred to Hedong and also attached importance to intelligence. However, due to the short time, it was difficult to find out truly useful information.

Wang Ju thought for a while and said, "Continue to supervise the betting. If the Liao Kingdom sends troops, I will have a fight with them."

Can you be afraid of this and that happen? The more you are afraid of it, the softer it becomes!

…………

"Duke Cai, have you heard that someone in the capital spread rumors, saying that the earth is covering the sky, Sima has no sun?" After the court came down, the censor Jian Xuchen stopped Cai Que and asked.

Fan Chunren frowned, Wang Ju asked Zhao Xu not to pursue the matter, and Cai Que not to pursue the matter. The others didn't say anything. Now Fan Chunren is in a daze and is afraid of making trouble.

Moreover, Jian Xuchen is a student of Wang Anshi, not only a student, but also a few other students of Wang Anshi, such as Wang Yun, Lu Huiqing, Cai Bian, Chang Zhi, 6 Dian, Jian Xuchen, Deng Xuwu, Wang Ling, Gong Yuan, Xu Yuncheng, etc., and are several capable generals in the promotion of new learning.

Not only himself, but also his father Jian Zhoufu was the most radical new party.

Now Jian Xuchen has become Yanchen again. Indeed, this earth-shaking sky is a huge handle, and Fan Chunren has a headache.

He looked at Cai Que worriedly, but Cai Que looked very calm and asked back: "So what if you hear it, so what if you don't hear it?"

"Why did the court summon Lu Huishu and Lu Weizhong to the capital?"

This was also Cai Que's proposal. Because the personnel of the prime minister changed slightly, he wrote a letter to Zhao Xu, suggesting that Lu Gongzhu be promoted to the minister of the disciple and Lu Dafang be the Minister of Personnel.

Zhao Xu was not understanding, and Lu Dafang was fine. Although he was an old party, he had no evil relationship with Wang Ju because of Zhang Zai. However, when Lu Gong was involved, he summoned Cai Que to the palace to ask.

Cai Que just told his reasons.

Now the Song Dynasty's ministers inside and outside the court and the opposition had four views. The first view was to see that the Liao Kingdom was constantly sending envoys to suppress it. The Song Dynasty now has many areas in the northwest, which can be used as the boundaries of Liuling, Yellow River, Qu Wu Mountain, Tiandu Mountain, Heng Mountain and Yinzhou Ancient Great Wall. Xixia is not enough to harm, so the court can stop the army. Moreover, the country has no economic burden, the people have not worked hard for it, and they do not need to bear any risks.

Among these four types of people, ministers hold this view the least proportion, but there are still many, so it is also a mainstream view.

As for those ministers who have to sell off their interests in order to suppress political enemies, there are very few, and they can be ignored.

The second view is ambiguous, and they really cannot tell whether to continue to annihilate Xixia or give up.

The third view is that the Song Dynasty is now at its strongest time, while the Western Xia is at its weakest time. If we still let go of the Western Xia, there will be few such opportunities in the future, and it will seriously weaken the enthusiasm of the soldiers of the three armies. Emperor Taizong of Song also said that the country is in virtue but not in danger. Li Jiqian could only wander in the desert. Who would have thought that the Dangxiang people would become the enemy of the Song Dynasty in the future? Moreover, the Western Xia still has Ganliang, the Lingxia Plain and the North and South Hetao. Once a hero is in charge of the rule, the northwest will inevitably become corrupt again.

The proportion of ministers holding this view is the largest.

But there is another point of view, that is, the Liao Kingdom may not be that powerful. The simplest example is that Liao developed the reign of Emperor Xia and defeated Hequ. Our dynasty was at its most powerful time, with strong soldiers and horses. If there were no major disasters and major wars, the country's income would have a surplus of tens of millions of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of chunks of

There are not many people holding this last view now, but once the Xixia is recovered, the number of people holding this view will inevitably increase.

Not to mention others, it is Zhao Xu himself. If he recovers Xixia and stabilizes the territory of Xixia and is still alive, he will have ambitions for Youyun at that time.

However, this is what you worry about the most.

Because of the real situation, the Song Dynasty's army was not that strong. If it were just defense and placed in the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty had the right time, place and people, and there would be no danger in the northern border. However, if we actively went deep into the enemy's territory and attacked the Liao Kingdom, Hebei and Hedong would become the main battlefield. However, these two places, especially Hebei, have been peaceful for too long, and the military and civilians were not accustomed to war. Therefore, during the Renzong period, Wang Lun and his party had only dozens of counterattacks, from Jingdong Road to Huainan Road, and the land that crossed thousands of miles was like entering a place without anyone. The king rebelled and defended Beizhou. The Song Dynasty dispatched so many military and civilians, and after several months of entry, he barely took down Beizhou.

The wise approach is to recover the Western Xia, the Song Dynasty must stop and wait until the northwest is stable and transfer a large number of soldiers who have been tested on the northwest battlefield to Hebei. At that time, the country's financial pressure was also reduced. Some funds could be allocated to train more and stronger border troops in Hebei and Hedong. At that time, the Song Dynasty could attack and defend and at least it would not need to pay 500,000 humiliating annual payments to the Liao Kingdom every year.

Cai Que's voice is that with these conservative important officials in the court, including Fan Chunren and Li Qingchen, the radical ministers would not be able to completely control the court in the future and would bring the Song Dynasty to an unpredictable direction.

This seems to be an explanation.

Then Cai Que said again: "When Wang Zi'an was leaving, he deliberately went to the old minister's house, sat down for several hours, and also talked about this."

This is official business. It is logical that the two people discussed in Cai’s Mansion, which violated the court system. But isn’t it time for the holiday? Wang Ju hurried to Hedong to inspect again. Time was urgent. If the front line wants a great victory, the rear must strongly support it. Wang Ju asked, even if the system was violated, it was understandable.

But that's not the truth.

Let’s talk about this radical first. If Zhao Xu lived safely for ten years, or even stopped Bu’s “supernatural power”, it would take less than ten years to continue. Wang Ju could lead the soldiers of the three armies to take back all the sixteen prefectures of Youyun for the Song Dynasty. Of course, after the recovery of Xixia, it would have to be stopped for two years, otherwise the finances would not keep up and forcefully used troops would only hurt the people and the winning rate would also be weakened.

But this sentence cannot be said. You two ministers dare to curse me for not living for a long time!

Therefore, we must prepare for the era of Xu of the Later Zhao Dynasty or the era of Gao Taotao.

Gao Taotao came up and did not mention party struggles, even from the perspective of one monarch and another minister, he had to replace a large number of important officials.

The old sect's previous bosses, Han Qi, Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi, Sima Guang, Fan Zhen and others, Han Fu and Sima were all dead. Fan Zhen was not dead, but he was ill for a long time and was dying, so he didn't have to think about it.

Lao Wen is in good health, but he is in his eighties. If he wants to take power, he must review government affairs, appoint and remove officials, and arrange close friends. This is undoubtedly a bit unscrupulous for Wen Yanbo today. What Lao Wen has in the future is not power, but huge prestige.

Therefore, the future may be the old-school bosses who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the ones who will be the one

Sun Gu, An Tao and others would never have a chance to make friends with Wang Ju. Ten would also hate the laws and policies issued by Wang Ju. Of course, they would also retaliate against Cai Que.

However, although Fan Chunren, Li Qingchen and others did not agree with Wang Ju's views, they did not have much conflict and at least they got along well in normal times.

So Wang Ju proposed that Cai Que be allowed to reiterate Er Lu again. First, although these two are old schools, they are not too motivated and have some bottom line. Secondly, these two are not very conflicted with Wang Cai.

Because Wang Ju and Cai Que suggested that if they didn't mention that they were grateful in the future, they would not pursue Wang Cai at least. Even if Sun Gu'an Tao and others took office in the future, they would not be able to successfully destroy Wang Ju's laws, and would also ensure that Cai Que's future safety will be partly safe.

There is another problem. The court opened up Dali and Jiaozhi and expanded the governance of the southern part of Kuixia Road. In the future, this ethnic group problem will be the top priority. Lu Dafang did a good job in the south. With him in the court, there will be no major problems in the south and even the northwest ethnic group policies.

But later Wang Ju changed this approach, not to continue, but to accelerate the destruction of these laws. However, this step was not a useless task, at least because of this arrangement, no one later thought that Wang Ju's promotion was behind those people's crazy.

Zhao Xu definitely wouldn't think about what happened after I died. After thinking about it, he said, "Accurate."

Therefore, the court issued two appointment edicts soon, but these two edicts attracted more ministers to have bad associations.

Could it be that this rumor made the emperor suspicious that he recalled Lu Gongzhu and Lu Dafang back to the capital and entered the Zaifu?

This is not a good sign. Not only did the opportunity to recover the Western Xia Dynasty missed, but there might be more serious turmoil within the Song Dynasty.

Cai Que was helpless. He knew all the truth, but he couldn't tell them. He frowned and had to say, "Super, where is Zi'an now?"

"northwest."

"Can the court intend or someone suggests to transfer Zi'an from the northwest?" To be continued.8
