Cai Que also breathed a sigh of relief. Gao Taotao, a general outside, scared him. Could it be that he would characterize Wang Ju as a military general so that he could harm him?

Wang Ju replied again, "The way of attacking the army and using the army is to complement each other, and only by fighting each other can one win every battle. Therefore, some tricks can be used to deceive the enemy. But as a minister, you must not deceive Your Majesty, that is the crime of deceiving the king. If the minister promises that if he continues to stay for six years, it is also the crime of deceiving the king, and this case cannot be opened.

Our dynasty pacified the northwest, and the people in the world all said that it was the merit of the ministers, but it was actually wrong. Without His Majesty's support, there would be no great victory in the northwest, and without the ministers working hard to govern the country, there would be no great victory in the northwest, and without the soldiers fighting bravely, there would be no great victory in the northwest. If Liu Changzuo was sick, he still led his army to fall snow and fought with the Liao army in Yunzhou to report victory in Yanmen.

If you are more successful than merit, as a minister, if you are not afraid and do not know how to advance or retreat, it will not be a good cause of the country.

However, I made an agreement with Your Majesty last year that you would marry the daughter of Nanyang Hou. Now Your Majesty is seriously ill. I hope the Empress Dowager will be in compliance.

Zhao Niannu has not returned, but Zhao Tianci has already returned. He has just arrived in Lingzhou by his horse, right next to Wang Ju.

Nanyang Hou is Zhao Tianci's father-in-law, the grandson of the "Eight Wise Kings", and the title given by Zhao Xu last year.

When Wang Ju wrote this memorial, he had already asked him to go to Beijing with his wife and the three girls selected by the Xihe Fan people. After all, their vocation was relatively slow.

Speaking of this, Gao Taotao agreed and promoted the title again. He went to the other side. Will the court still pay wages? Therefore, several officials who don’t have money were added, and even the officials behind Wang Ju were added sixteen consecutively, and four were added in only the Jiedushi, which was more than twice as long as Han Qi’s time.

The Song Dynasty is worthy of Wang Ju...

On June 26, Wang Ju entered the capital in a low-key manner and presided over the wedding for Zhao Tianci.

To be honest, some of them got married early, but there was nothing they could do. Do you still expect to come back and get married in the future?

On June 27th, Wang Ju, led by several prime ministers, entered the palace to visit Zhao Xu.

At this time, Zhao Xu could not move or speak, and could only rely on some liquid substances to survive. However, he could still think, that is, he was paralyzed all over, but he did not become a vegetable.

However, his situation was very bad, and even if the priest came to visit, it had to be approved by Gao Taotao, and Gao Taotao asked the eunuch to sit behind the curtain through a curtain.

Only then did Zhao Xu realize how strong his mother's desire for control was.

But this change in mind is actually blamed on Zhao Xu himself.

The Song army forced the Liao army to cede land, and Zhao Xu regarded himself as Emperor Wu of Han, but in fact...

Not to mention the others, just two people, Wang Anshi, and there was also one Wang Anshi during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, that was Sang Hongyang. If he wanted to defeat the Huns, he had to spend a lot of money. With the unhealthy finances of the Han Dynasty, it would be even more difficult to make money.

So the later Han Dynasty's finances became worse, which forced Emperor Wu of Han to let Sang Hongyang manage his finances. At that time, the opposition from both inside and outside the court and the country was even louder. However, did Emperor Wu of Han set any obstacles for Sang Hongyang, and even let Sang Hongyang go home to support his old age in order to compromise?

Let’s talk about Wang Shao, did Emperor Wu of Han put Wei Qing and Huo Qubing in the rear as a governor, wasting talents? Or Wei Qing was a foreign relative, okay, then is Cheng Buzhi the other general a foreign relative?

Or Li Guang, in fact, Li Guang's achievements during Emperor Wu of Han were just like that, but he was only Sima Qian and later literati myths. Did he not punish him after he paid the fine? Did Emperor Wu of Han force him to commit suicide?

If Zhao Xu completely asked Wang Anshi to remove all kinds of shackles and make thorough reforms, and let Wang Shao, Liu Changzuo and other important generals completely remove shackles and lead troops to fight, will the Song Dynasty enrich the country and strengthen the country in advance?

While reforming, many old parties used the techniques of restraining the reformists and balancing the art of balancing them. These old ministers were all powerful people. The women who entered the palace were their wives. How could they not have a serious impact on Gao Taotao?

I'm afraid that Zhao Xu has not seen through this section until now.

Perhaps it was not until now that Zhao Xu completely let go of his suspicion of Wang Ju. A simple truth is that if Wang Ju wants to be an emperor, he can do it on the other side. Although there may be many seamen oppose it, it is much less difficult than rebellion in the Song Dynasty.

The problem arose. With his mother's behavior and his appointment to Wen Yanbo, he had serious concerns, and his son was still young.

So what will happen to the Song Dynasty if he lets go?

Therefore, when he saw Wang Ju, he looked reluctant, unwilling and regretful.

If he had completely believed in Wang Ju at that time and did not allow him to make a six-year agreement. With Wang Ju's prestige now, even if his mother and Wen Yanbo wanted to join forces to do anything, he would not be able to succeed. Then, if the son grew up, the mother would have to return the power, and the Song Dynasty could develop healthily and become stronger!

This is his current idea, but Wang Ju really stayed in the northwest and stopped leaving. He probably had another idea.

Wang Ju visited, and Zhao Xu opened his mouth desperately, and actually made him miraculously shout two words: "Master..."

Cai Que was overjoyed. Could it be that the emperor could improve?

But as long as he shouted out, Gao Taotao and Wen Yanbo would not dare to stop him. Wang Ju said in a deep voice: "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty wants to see Your Highness."

Gao Taotao was silent for a while and whispered behind the curtain.

After a while, the eunuch brought Mr. Zhao in.

When they saluted each other, Wang Ju and the ministers must have to salute each other. However, these are important ministers, and Zhao Zhui also had to show respect. After performing the salutation, Zhao Zhui stared at Wang Ju with anticipation.

When Zhao Xu was sick, his grandmother immediately implemented strict control over him.

Fortunately, Wang Ju taught him many principles and repeatedly emphasized that sometimes one must learn to be patient, so the first line of the Book of Changes is to use the hidden dragon. It is not that the dragon has no future, but that it must learn to lurk and grow in its power.

These principles have positively helped Zhao Zheng now.

Wang Ju also knew his current suffering, but there was no way... Could it be that he would kill Gao Taotao?

He first took out a thick booklet from his sleeve and said, "In the past, Your Majesty gave his Highness a lecture. Many of them were not finished, so I went to the northwest. However, the northwest was full of problems and complicated affairs. Therefore, I have only compiled some historical examples and principles, including the previous lectures, totaling forty-eight chapters. Of course, I am always a minister, and I am standing in different positions and considering different things. When Your Highness reads, you can combine them with Emperor Taizong of Tang, so that you can know more things that people and monarchs need to pay attention to."

Zhao Xu lay on the hospital bed, his eyes showing a happy expression.

Wang Ju also turned his head and looked at him, saying, "Your Majesty, I will leave tomorrow."

Zhao Xu was reluctant to leave, and Zhao Zhui suddenly took Wang Ju's hand.

Wang Ju continued: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, it is right for me to leave the Song Dynasty. Our dynasty punished the Anshi Rebellion and the Rebellion of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Therefore, many restrictions were imposed on military generals, which would be too corrected. But not only military generals, but if the rights of foreign relatives, eunuchs and powerful ministers are too high, it will also cause harm to the country. Especially for ministers like me, if some restrictions are made, they will be beneficial and harmless. Even the prime minister cannot be re-elected for more than ten years to avoid losing control of power. Your Highness, please remember that this can be passed on as a convention and laws of the Song Dynasty."

The Song Dynasty started to be fine, but it became worse and worse since Cai Jing. Then Qin Hui, Shi Miyuan, Jia Sidao...

"Although I left the Song Dynasty, I am continuing to be loyal to the Song Dynasty. Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, Your Highness, and Rong Chen reported good news. The Khitan prevented the large-scale betrayal of the Bu tribe. This year, at the beginning of spring, the Khitan sent troops to suppress it, but it was defeated in disgrace. This year, the beginning of spring, the Khitan sent troops to suppress it again, but it failed again."

This is a serious misguided rebellion in the Liao Kingdom. There is a reference. In the battle of Lingzhouchuan, the Iron Cavalry of Bu was defeated by the Iron Cavalry of Bu, but the Song army suffered extremely minor losses. Although the Song army forced the Liao Kingdom to bow, the casualties ratio between the two sides was quite considerable. Even 60% of the casualties of the Song Dynasty occurred in several battles in the Song and Liao dynasties. Then the combat effectiveness of the Bu people should be far lower than that of the Liao army. Moreover, there are many tribes of Bu Bu, and not many who really defect to Mogus. Then Mogus can still be easily solved.

But the Liao Kingdom ignored one thing. Although the Zubu Cavalry defeated in Lingzhouchuan, it was a trap that was hiding into the Song army. Moreover, the three armies were not very united. Many tribal soldiers, like Mogus, were very repulsive from the beginning of the recruitment. If the Song army was easily defeated, the three armies would surge up and win more. But when they failed, these people began to escape early, and they were defeated even more.

The battle between Song and Liao was to go deep into the Liao territory, especially in the sniper battle in Hunhe. The Song army had few troops and did not occupy the right time, place and people. They forced the sniper army of Damei Slave, so that he could not return. How could the losses be low?

And they prevented the various departments from being poor and backward, and there were no excellent armors, but now at least the armors of the armors have been solved by Mogus.

Under misjudgment, the Liao army was defeated again.

"This is the first step to set up for the Song Dynasty. There is also the second step. The Khitan rebelled in Liaodong, and the Jurchens were trapped and almost wiped out. However, some tribe chiefs escaped by chance. I secretly sent people to contact them. This year they could not make any difference, but after I went to the other side, I could still support them to make them grow stronger again, and Liaodong began to rebel again."

Lu Hui escaped last year, that's so miserable.

Fortunately, although many of the escaped people were killed and dispersed, it was difficult to get him to gather dozens of leaders, so Wang Ju planned to secretly transfer an army after going to the other side, and then carry out devastating revenge on the Yue Riji tribe. As long as the revenge is successful, Lu Hui and these leaders' reputation will be restored again, and the huge rebellion will begin again.

This is the double insurance left by Wang Ju to the Song Dynasty.

However, because Wen Yanbo and Gao Taotao were present, Wang Ju just vaguely told him in one sentence.

"If there is no accident, the Khitan will be exhausted in this ten years. With ten years of rest, our dynasty will become stronger."

This is also what Zhao Xu is most worried about. He is about to fail. When he dies, his son ascended the throne. But in fact, the power of the military and national power will be controlled by his mother. However, before he dies, Wen Yanbo will take over. If he dies, he will not know what the political situation will be like.

Will Liao Kingdom take the opportunity to retaliate?

What Wang Ju said was to relieve his worries.

With ten years, it is hard to say whether the Song Dynasty will be stronger. It is difficult to cure it, but it is easy to destroy it. But in ten years, Zhao Zhong had already taken power, and the difficulty lies in the past few years. Wang Ju meant that, Your Majesty, you don’t have to worry. No matter what the political situation of the Song Dynasty is later, the Liao Kingdom has no intention of dealing with the Song Dynasty. In the past few years of precious time, I have won the Song Dynasty.

But in front of Gao Taotao, it is difficult to explain clearly.

Zhao Xu also understood, and his eyes showed a look of gratitude.

"This is the first thing I have served on the Song Dynasty. The second thing is the armor and some new technologies. Some people say that I have made contributions to the Song Dynasty. It is not. My little contribution is based on many precious heritages left by my ancestors. Without the internal governance of my ancestors, if I were allowed to go to the Han and Tang Dynasties, I would not be able to achieve these meager achievements. I also rely on the reform of Jiefu. Without the foundation laid by Jiefu, I still cannot achieve these meager achievements and the support of Your Majesty. It is not military merit. If it is not for this internal governance, I would not be such a powerful finance. What I did is just to correctly benefit the advantages of our dynasty. But what is my real contribution, that is, these technical knowledge."

"In the past, we have regarded this kind of knowledge as a magic trick and avoided it, but the ministers have promptly corrected the situation. For example, if there is no gunpowder, our iron production in the dynasty would not have reached more than 100 million jin. Even if Shen Cunzhong improved the motorcycle, there would not be enough iron resources to build roads. The supply of the northwest and the mobilization of the dynasty would still become a problem for our dynasty and even restrict the development of our dynasty."

"At present, the northwest is pacified and the Liao Kingdom retreats, but the biggest threat our dynasty faces is still the northern nomadic peoples, and the Yanyun portal is still under the control of the Khitans. Why have the northern nomadic peoples always become an indissoluble problem for the Central Plains dynasty? They chase water and grass to survive, feed on meat, so many warriors are strong and good at riding and shooting. The more closed and backward, the more backward, the more barbaric. Therefore, the sparsely populated Jurchens and the slogans can bother the powerful Khitans, so the Khitans can bother our dynasty."

"But advanced civilization is ultimately the general trend. Driven by new technologies, our dynasty has become increasingly advantageous in the armor. If it weren't for these new weapons, it would not be able to successfully capture the cities of Lingzhou, Shunzhou, Dingzhou, Xingzhou and other cities of the Western Xia, nor could it be able to quickly capture the Wuzhou, Shuozhou, Huanzhou and other cities of the Khitan, so that the Khitan did not have time to mobilize the army, and the Liao master fled in a hurry."

"But these weapons are not powerful enough. I plan to go to the other side to concentrate on developing a more powerful weapon. This requires a quiet environment. When it is developed, I will send someone to hand over its technology to the court."

"In order to support our dynasty, the other side donated a lot of money, gold and silver, which made some merchants on the other side complain about their ministers. However, if the other side's finances will be healthy again after the New Year. They were eventually the people of the Song Dynasty. Every time the court suffered a crushing defeat on the front line, all the people were as if they were lost. Every time the victory was great, all the people were excited. Your Majesty, not only the literati, but also ordinary people also had patriotism, including those merchants and people who migrated to the other side, they just drew too much money and silk under the run of the ministers. However, if the court had taken the initiative to recover Yan Yun, I believe many people would continue to support the court."

"Maybe the heavenly minister is also very old and cannot come to the Central Plains to fight the prosperity, but we can further persuade them to contribute money and efforts. In addition, our dynasty continues to develop, and with more powerful weapons, regaining Yanyun is no longer a dream, or even a future where a stronger and richer Song Dynasty will stand."

With so many reasons, I left the Song Dynasty.

However, after seeing how I heard it, those who were suspicious of Wang Ju could hear it. After going to the other side, Wang Ju couldn't rebel. Not only did he cross the sea, but the people on the other side would not agree. After all, they were all from the Song Dynasty.

When those who are moved will feel a lot of emotion. Wang Ju did so much, but the end of the incident was to go to the other side to escape suspicion, but even so, he was still trying his best to be loyal to the Song Dynasty.

Wang Ju looked at Zhao Zhong again and said, "Your Highness, since Taizu, several kings have worked diligently. This is the blessing of our dynasty's people. However, because they were too negligent to themselves, they were all in poor health in their later years. If Taizu had not died young, our dynasty would have been stronger in martial arts. If Taizu had not died young, our dynasty would have been stronger in martial arts. If Taizong had not died young, our dynasty's internal affairs would have been stronger. Zhenzong was sick in his later years, and the national affairs were deteriorating. The same was true for Renzong, and Yingzong was also sorry. Now Your Majesty is seriously ill again."

"Your Highness, my dynasty needs a wise lord, but even more a wise lord with good health. I will say one more thing, you don't have to be too frugal, but you must eat enough. Your clothes don't have to be gorgeous, but you must prevent cold and keep cold. Government affairs cannot be relaxed, but you must work with your husbands, rather than working alone, even if your body is damaged, government affairs are piled up like a mountain. Quiet is OK, but you must also combine movement. The predecessors said that lonely yin does not arise and lonely yang does not grow, which is the same principle."

Wang Ju looked at the prime ministers and said, "In ancient times, our ancestors lived on water and terrible environments, flooded with floods, pythons, crocodiles, and dense ferocious beasts. Therefore, our ancestors combined their images, evolved into dragons, and became the totem of the Han people. But it was the cultivation of generations of ancestors that this place of heaven and this place were created, so we must respect our ancestors."

"My Lords, I have said before that the Yellow River is our mother river, but it is a pity that it has deteriorated due to the overdrawing of generations of people, half water and half sand. But it is precisely because of this water that we drink and irrigate. It is precisely because of this soil that we have planted and eaten from generation to generation, so we have to love this land."

"During the Later Zhou Dynasty, several countries were established, and wars continued to perish, and the people were suffering. Because of Taizu and Taizong, the Central Plains were able to be unified, and the people were far away from the war, and we were able to enjoy this wealth and honor, so we had to love this country."

"The other side has opened up many places, and those people who have transformed themselves into different places are mostly lazy and fierce people. But our Han people in the Central Plains are hardworking and docile. It is their little bit of work that has created this powerful and wealthy country. Please take care of the people in this area."

When saying these words, Wang Ju was filled with deep affection.

Maybe Wang Ju's tricks were tough and iron-blooded and scheming, which made some people dissatisfied, but at this moment, several people had to admit that Wang Ju could also be regarded as a rare loyal minister in the ages.

Zhao Xu's eyes burst into tears.

It's a pity that he can't speak at this time.

After Wang Ju finished speaking, he bowed and then left the palace.

The next day he really left with his family, which also announced the end of an era...

...
