Chapter 39: Guarding the river must guard the Huaihe River, and guarding the Yang must guard the Jing
At this time, Lin'an Imperial City.
The palace that stretches for dozens of miles is five steps and one floor, ten steps and one pavilion, with all corridors and veranda, and is quaint. It is dignified and elegant, and has its own majestic spirit and is spectacular.
Just after the morning court, a majestic old man with a clear and beautiful appearance walked into the imperial study and wore a yellow robe of "Five-clawed Golden Dragon". This person was Yong Kuo, the current emperor of Nanyong Ningzong.
The look of anger flashed in his eyes, and as soon as he sat down, his face became calm and gentle.
I took a sip of the "Dragon Wind Tuan Tea" offered on the "Eight Minlands" and was the most fragrant and can be said to be the best.
Emperor Ningzong glanced at the prince who was standing respectfully standing in front of him, nodded slightly, thinking to himself:
"It's still Eunuch Wang who knows me that the Longfeng Tuan Tea I made today is a little more mellow than the West Lake Longjing yesterday. It just happened to get rid of the fire, which is very suitable for me."
Today, the court discussed the addition and site selection of the Maritime Warehouse Department in the court. The two factions led by Prime Minister Gu Jingxiu and Minister of Rites Fan Hongzhang took advantage of the issue, and involved "mainly fighting" and "mainly harmony" and confronted each other.
Ning Zong was furious and left.
Beiyong was defeated and retreated to the Qinling Mountains, Huaihe River, and south of Dasan Pass, and a corner of the south of the Yangtze River. It was already a situation of "establishing a country by the sea".
Behind it is the endless sea. At this time, Nanyong had no choice but to retreat, so the military adopted a defensive strategy with the two Huaihei as the border to resist the attacks of Donghan and Beiqi in the north.
"Stand to defend the river, to defend the Huai River, to protect the Yang River, to protect the Jing River."
Although the Yangtze River is a natural danger, it is too long to be defended everywhere. In order to protect half of China's history for thousands of years, it is necessary to protect Huainan and Jingzhou.
What is fought in war is national strength, which is actually financial strength and military strength.
Nanyong is located in a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, and the economy and maritime trade in Jiangnan became the guarantee for the longevity of the Nanyong Kingdom.
The economy in Jiangnan is showing vitality and prosperity.
Maritime trade also rumbling on the day and established trade relations with more than 50 countries and regions. In addition to establishing special management of the Maritime Trade Department in Guangzhou Port, Quanzhou Port and Mingzhou Port, it is now preparing to add ports and establish a new Maritime Trade Department.
Thinking of this, Emperor Ningzong Yong Kuo gave a mouthful of "Dragon Wind Tuan Tea".
Free and easy.
His eyes lit up, and his virginity suddenly appeared on his clear face.
In a moment, he fell into deep thought again.
Yong Taizu replaced the Later Zhou regime with military force and established the Dayong Dynasty. Therefore, after the founding of the State of Dayong, in order to prevent the generals from seizing power, he adopted the "cup of wine to release military power" to cut off the military power of local powerful people, forming a political situation of "strong, weak branches".
Although the generals were prevented from seizing power, Dayong's military combat effectiveness was weak and was finally destroyed by Donghan.
It is known in history as "Bei Yong".
Emperor Yong Kuo of the Southern Yong Ningzong was certainly clear about this history.
If the national policy of "emphasizing culture and suppressing martial arts" left by the ancestors is still as always, then it is certain that it will be a good idea to repeat the mistakes of Beiyong, but it will be just a matter of time.
If it is abolished, "recently martial arts and suppress culture" will be adopted, and the combat effectiveness of local warlords will be improved and they will resist Donghan. It will be fine, but if the tail is too big, it will inevitably have a strong impact on the imperial power.
Yuan Dingtian was so brave during the Guangzong period. If he really "got directly to the Yellow Dragon and recovered the Central Plains", with his reputation for expanding territory, he would raise his arms and make people feel inevitable.
Even if he doesn't have such thoughts, it is hard to guarantee that his generals will not "wear in a yellow robe"?
As a general of the Later Zhou Dynasty, Taizu of Dayong could still be established for the Zhou Dynasty without the merit of establishing dimensions.
If Yuan Dingtian recovered the Central Plains and had his unparalleled achievements, what would the court do if he became independent?
It's terrible to think about it carefully.
When Ningzong was the prince, he was also puzzled by Emperor Guangzong's execution of Yuan Dingtian on the charge of "false". He only realized how difficult the emperor's next decision was.
How many civil and military officials in this dynasty can share their worries?
Fan Hongzhang, the Minister of Rites, was upright and upright, but he was merciless in his words and actions, and often went against him, which made him very depressed.
But Fan Hongzhang is an honest and selfless model for scholars all over the world. He has the title of "Great Confucianism". He always has to use his own thing. Using him means promoting a kind of righteousness and showing his love for talents.
Although the prime minister Gu Jingxiu was selfish, he had the talent to save the world and could understand his own meaning. Such talents were beneficial to the court.
In fact, neither Fan Hongzhang nor Gu Jingxiu were talents that Emperor Ningzong Yong Kuo were satisfied with.
None of them are Fan Wenzheng, who "worry about the people when you live in a high temple, and worry about the king when you live in a far away world."
But looking up, the two of them were already the best in the entire court.
Fan Hongzhang adheres to integrity and advocates integrity, and uses him as a way to advocate "virtue", sets an example to promote righteousness.
Gu Jingxiu has the talent of Jingwei, and he is the one who governs the country and manages the world.
The eldest prince Yong Tan behind Gu Jingxiu and the second prince Yong Yun behind Fan Hongzhang are both talented and extremely smart.
Thinking of these two sons, Emperor Ningzong Yong Kuo smiled slightly and took a sip of the "Dragon Wind Tuan Tea" tribute from Fenghuang Mountain in Fujian.
"Those who do not plan everything are not enough to plan for a lifetime, and those who do not plan for the overall situation are not enough to plan for a territory."
I hope these two sons will be more polished and experienced, and will not be influenced by these two ministers.
The road to emperors is bumpy and bloody. There is never an absolute trust in anyone, nor an absolute enemy.
Only those who overcome all obstacles and after hard work and finally win are the talents of the emperor and the choice of heaven.
Both sons have grown up and have their own ideas, and will not completely obey themselves.
Looking at Eunuch Wang in his fifties in front of him, with more than half of his hair, he poured boiling water into the teapot, his movements were a little slow, and he felt like he was old.
But still so careful, respectful and pious.
Could it be that in this huge palace, Wang Jin, is the only one who listens to him the most?
I am the most powerful person in Nanyong and the loneliest person.
Thinking of this, his handsome face became paler and his eyes looked lonely. He raised his eyes to look at a green landscape painting on the opposite wall.
This painting is more than three feet long and one and a half feet wide. It is Wang Ximeng's masterpiece of the eternal masterpiece "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". It has thousands of mountains and valleys, and is full of beauty and magnificent.
Seeing this painting, Emperor Ningzong's eyes were bright and energetic, as if he had read thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, his expression also became majestic.
Lin'an City East Street, Cuibaozhai.
Li Yunzong and Liu Songquan have left.
Zhan Qianheng had just received a letter from his eldest daughter Zhan Aoshuang. Chu Cuishan led his three sons to Mingzhou Port. Chu Cuishan's eldest son Chu Zhaolong threatened to participate in Mingzhou Port affairs.
Human desires will change with the change of the environment.
This is the case in the temple, just as Emperor Ningzong was worried that after the general recovered lost territory and opened up his territory, his mentality would inevitably change in the face of extraordinary achievements.
The same is true in the world. Chu Cuishan has made the Cuibaozhai Guangzhou Port branch colourful now, and he is unable to do so when he sees Zhan Aoxue making Mingzhou Port.
So Chu Cuishan's mentality also changed. With external forces, Ye Xi instigated him and openly came to him to provoke trouble.
Of course, Chu Cuishan did not dare to take the initiative to find Cuibaozhai, the headquarters, to cause trouble, but found Mingzhou Port Branch to make trouble by taking advantage of the Duan, which caught Zhan Qianheng off guard.
Zhan Qianheng was furious and it was difficult to go to Mingzhou Port in person to calm the incident. It was inevitable that this was not a plan for Chu Cuishan to "speak east and attack west", which caused a passive situation where the beginning and end could not be taken into account.
If the father-in-law Zhuo Xiwen comes forward, it will be solved easily, but wouldn’t the people in the gang be laughed at by themselves?
Isn’t it that Zhan Qianheng seems incompetent when Zhuo Xiwen comes out again?
Just as he was upset, he suddenly saw Long Qingyun talking and laughing with Zhuo Xiwen in the distance, Xiao Shuxuan was rising from the world.
Zhan Qianheng was suddenly overjoyed and walked over to explain his purpose. Please ask Long Qingyun to come to Mingzhou Port to calm the matter.
Long Qingyun couldn't help but be stunned, a little surprised.
Suddenly, when Songyang Sword Mansion went down the mountain, his master Bai Yunqi and the mansion leader Mo Tianyu told him not to rush to report to the Ministry of War.
You should travel in the world and increase your knowledge before choosing the path you will take in the future.
Thinking of this, Long Qingyun happily agreed.
Zhan Qianheng was overjoyed and looked at Zhan Aoxue who was waiting and watching not far away, and said cheerfully:
"Xue'er, you're ready to visit your sister with Young Master Long tomorrow morning."
"Okay!"
Zhan Aoxue responded happily.
The sound is crisp, like a yellow oriole in the valley.
