Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The city of Bianliang has always been the most well-informed.  It has been more than a year since the Yan Yan War ended, and winter football matches have entered the winter break again.  The days became as usual, slightly boring, in the late winter of the sixth year of Xuanhe.  I don¡¯t know which day started, but a shocking news spread quickly.  In the blink of an eye, every corner of this huge city was clearly known.  There are teahouses and wine shops, Imperial College study buildings, government offices, offices, streets and alleys, and small apartments.  Everyone is rumoring, discussing, panicking, angry, calculating, and watching.  When this news spread, Bianliang was completely shocked!  On the east side of the river, remnants of the Liao people and Jurchen troops suddenly invaded.  Breaking through the border prefectures and counties, Taiyuan Prefecture has imposed martial law.  The Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, which was originally used to prepare the border, was cut off from support by Wu Min because of the appeasement, and the army had no intention of fighting.  One group was surrounded and the other group retreated from the Daizhou camp.  Taiyuan Prefecture, an important town in the east of Hedong, has opened its doors.  Taiyuan Prefecture is directly facing the roads of Gyeonggi.  In winter, the Yellow River freezes.  From Hedong to Kaifeng Mansion, it is almost a flat river!  The princess of Shu, a native of Liao, carried the jade seal passed down from Liao and led the 100,000 elite soldiers and generals left by Yelu Yanxi.  Under the banner of restoring the national flag, we prepared to attack Hedong and approach Bianliang.  He avenged the Song Dynasty's betrayal of the alliance, captured Yanjing and destroyed the Liao Dynasty.  The princess of Shu, a native of Liao, has formed an alliance with the Jurchens to take the land of the Song people and reestablish the Liao ancestral temple.  He spent all the people's resources in Song Dynasty to make good friends with Jurchens.  And borrowed tens of thousands of troops.  It turns out that all the land and population of the Liao people have been given to the Jurchens.  The restoration of the Liao people will be on the land of the Song people!  People in Bianliang already know that Shenwu's ever-victorious army is powerful.  The entire Western Army could not defeat the remnants of the Liao army entrenched in Yanjing.  In the end, it was Shenwu's ever-victorious army who took action to regain Yanyun.  On that day, Shenwu's ever-victorious army entered the city to show off its power, and its military appearance was seen by the entire Bianliang.  The talent of a strong army is already known to the world.  Now that even Shenwu¡¯s ever-victorious army is no match, what other troops and horses can be used to block the invading remnants of the Liao people?  Are we going to pull out the Western Army again?  Or should we pull out the imperial troops from Bianliang City and set up defenses along the Yellow River, fighting the remnants of the Liao people and the Jurchen Tatars?  Even if the Western Army comes out to help the king, the princes of the Domen Guards Army can actually come in handy.  But the wars were causing disasters, and they were burning in the Song Dynasty.  We can no longer face all this with a relaxed attitude as we look at the Yanyun War thousands of miles away.  And fight.  There are wins and losses.  It would be okay to win, but it would be better to lose.  Didn¡¯t the Khitan and Jurchen Tatars rush straight to Bianliang City?  How did the imperial court choose the commander-in-chief of Hedong Road? Not only could it not inspire military morale, but it could easily cause a strong army to collapse in such a small way?  The common people of the Song Dynasty all knew that the noble and the military were inferior, and they all took it for granted.  In daily life, military men may not be looked down upon much.  But now treating these soldiers poorly will endanger everyone's lives. This is unacceptable!  The common people just cursed a few times.  Those who serve as officials know more about propriety.  I also know more inside information.  It's unlikely that everyone will follow what others say.  But those who are most likely to get into trouble are those Tai students who spend their days idle in Bianliang.  ¡°These are talents reserved for the country¡¯s future, and they feel they are qualified to guide the country.  As long as you work for yourself, the world will not be peaceful.  Another happy event for young people.  I can¡¯t travel in winter, and there are no football games to watch.  Going in and out of seventy-two stores every day is really boring.  Now that such a commotion suddenly broke out, everyone immediately started to protest.  Be responsible to all the lords.  I was scolded to death.  Every day we held sword-wielding gatherings in the tiles of the wine shop, tea house, and were extremely passionate.  Some people have already begun to prepare a letter by knocking on the que, asking the saint to severely punish the commander-in-chief of Hedong Road, select famous commanders and generals, and quickly restore the lost land of Hedong Road.  The proposed candidates for the post of Fushuai of Hedong Road were listed in a eloquent manner.  Xiao Yan was among them.  The ranking is quite low.  After all, this is the famous commander who once led the Shenwu Victory Army and achieved great achievements in Ping Yan!  Wu Min also has a mansion in Bianliang. These days, the walls and doors are all posted with posters criticizing Wu Min.  The family members in the mansion came out to tear them apart.  However, he was caught by a large group of imperial students ambushing him on one side, and he was beaten severely, and then returned victorious.  It seemed as if the remnants of the Liao people and the Jurchen Tatars who invaded Hedong Road were vulnerable to this punch.  Wu Min stayed with her family in Beijing and was so frightened that she could only stay at home.  He put himself in prison.  Amid the fierce chaos, there were actually some good-hearted scholars who, somehow scratched their muscles, actually wrote a few poems praising the princess of Liao and Shu.  The words are gorgeous and the allusions are sophisticated.  The meaning of the words is ambiguous and lingering.  It's big and gorgeous.  It actually became popular for a while.  The former dynasty was full of golden branches and jade leaves.  It is also a good target for gossip.  In short, Bianliang City spread the news because of this news.  I can't sit still anymore.  The whole city was boiling, and everyone was staring at the center of the imperial court and the official Zhao family.  Let's see if we can come up with a way to deal with it quickly!  People's hearts are floating, and in the past ten years, they have reached extreme levels.?.  This situation happened, first of all, because Bianliang City is really not a confidential place.  The court has something important to do.  The court meeting just ended in the morning.  It became the talk of the streets in the afternoon.  The proportion of civil servants in this city is too high, and rumors can leak everywhere.  As a native of Bianliang, what kind of qualified capital resident is a person who doesn't like to talk about court affairs?  The second thing is that Xiao Yan¡¯s black hand was involved, and he used extravagances such as Zhang Xian and Zhang Langjun to cover up people.  Then use methods such as peripheral gambling, where the big profits are.  Already initially in the entire Bianliang market.  As one of the new godfathers in Bianliang, Zhang Langjun is already quite influential in the streets.  Even a high-ranking family would not necessarily allow Xiao Xianmo to be a guest.  Zhang Langjun, on the other hand, went forward boldly.  As for any qualified wealthy man, who wouldn't want to build a team to join the Football League?  To form a team, you need players.  Zhang Langjun spoke up, what kind of players do you want? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Handing over Xiao Yan may be troublesome, but Zhang Langjun, who is dressed in fine clothes, is an idol-like figure in Bianliang City.  Appearing side by side with him in the tiles, the girls must be enthusiastic when serving him.  No matter from which point of view, this Zhang Langjun must be accepted.  Through Zhang Xian, public opinion in the market was slightly affected.  The Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army is described as more innocent and more deeply aggrieved.  The situation is now more tense, and the invading enemies are more powerful.  It couldn't be simpler.  ??Bianliang City has developed to this extent, which is actually equivalent to having its own life and will.  The emperors of the Song Dynasty, since Zhenzong, have never left Bianliang City.  If you want to know a little bit about the public sentiment, in addition to going around and accepting rewards, you can also use the public opinion in Bianliang that the Imperial City Division inquired about.  Compared with other places that are rustic, they can accept the news in return.  Today's official Zhao Ji prefers to come for interviews with the Imperial City Secretary, bringing with him the popular sentiments of Bianliang.  As an emperor, Zhao Ji actually only had a vision of Bianliang.  No matter what the rest of the Song Dynasty looked like, as long as the Bianliang City under his feet was luxurious and magnificent, he felt that he was a sage king far ahead of his predecessors.  He is more concerned about the instability in Bianliang than the breakup of border states and counties and the civil unrest in Jiangnan.  Xiao Yan influenced public opinion in Bianliang through Zhang Xian.  It may not be useful to others.  But for Zhao Ji, it will still come in handy.  In a word, what happened in Hedong came and Bianliang was shaken!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~ The market is bustling like this, and there are all kinds of strange things.  It was the center of the imperial court that maintained the operation of the Song Dynasty empire.  Of course I understand the real situation.  The report from both civil and military sources on Hedong Road reached Bianliang two days ago.  Han Shizhong and Jiang Wei, the deputy general manager of the imperial army stationed on this road, arrived first to report, and the formal report from Wu Min, the commander-in-chief of Hedong Road, arrived later.  In fact, there have been some rumors in the capital a few days ago.  Wu Min's decision to deal with the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army was something everyone tacitly approved of, and no one in the court would find fault with Wu Min in this matter.  It aroused the morale of the soldiers to be a little unstable, and it was natural for some troubles to arise on the border.  Everyone in the court had a tacit understanding and did not take it too seriously.  It's nothing more than the old wisdom of some foreign enemies who invaded and used the thieves' self-respect.  Everyone has been dealing with the Western Army for so many years.  I have long been trained to be extremely mentally strong.  Compared with Xixia, which is still an enemy country that steals the name, what kind of thing are the remnants of the Liao people?  Can you still scare the powerful officials?  And everyone still hopes that the Shenwu Changsheng Army will make things worse until the Sacred Heart is completely lost.  It is self-destruction.  The collapse of the Shenwu Ever Victorious Army will inevitably involve Na Laizi.  There are many people in the capital who hate him with itch!  Once Nan Laizi falls, Prince Jia Zhao Kai will be implicated again.  This is another huge political article.  Coupled with the huge profits in Nan Laizi's hands - this is a major military matter.  In the land east of the river, there are indeed remnants of the Liao people.  It really broke all the states and counties.  What else does it matter?  Everyone who is qualified to participate in this game is watching secretly.  Traveling in private.  Prince Jia Zhao Kai, who felt bad, simply cut off contact with Xiao Yan and stayed in his palace behind closed doors, thinking hard about how to get out of this incident.  There are still some people who are gearing up and discussing how to divide the huge financial resources in Xiao Yan's hands.  No one thought about traveling to Wenhe East Road to let them actually report back.  Is the story about police on the border true or false?  If it is true, how about committing crimes against border thieves?  The person in charge is called the princess of Liao and Shu. Is this true?  In the end, Shenwu's ever-victorious army retreated because its troops were distracted and unwilling to contribute.  Or is he indulging the enemy?  The Jurchens also joined the invaders. This more important news??Isn't it true?  Since Zhao Ji took the throne, party strife has intensified, leading to unprecedented chaos.  As an empire, the Song Dynasty's normal ability to respond to sudden events was almost paralyzed.  Not to mention the most shocking thing is that now, as the highest military order and military and political agency of the Song Dynasty, the Xifu Privy Council, from the Privy Envoy to the Deputy Privy Envoy to the Privy Council, has been filled with vacancies along the way.  Even if there is Xiao Yan, the deputy chief of the Privy Council, he can't control the affairs of the Privy Council!  This state of numbness, which could make a knowledgeable person cry, did not end until the ominous announcement reached the capital two days ago.  It was only then that all the central officials in the capital and even the sage Zhao Ji, who had almost no idea that something was going on in Hedong, were completely alarmed.  The fall of border prefectures and counties is already a certainty.  The Shenwu Changsheng Army's defenders at three passes were surrounded, and their survival was unknown.  Due to poor food transportation, the defenders of the Shenwu Changsheng Army in Daizhou Camp retreated until they reached Taiyuan Prefecture before they could find a foothold.  Of course, Han Shizhong was doing it in the name of food supply and did not say anything about the imperial court cutting off the army's aid, but the resentment between the lines was very clear.  Taiyuan, the mainstay of Hedong Road, has also become chaotic.  In the city of Taiyuan, there are pacification envoys, transport envoys, warehouse envoys, constitutional envoys, stationed forbidden troops, archers and local soldiers, and regiments to train and strengthen.  They can't even maintain law and order!  Countless goods were lost.  There were hundreds of casualties.  Several grain stores were burned down (this is because the Changping envoys were planning to use troops to move the Zhihe East Road to save money. In fact, they had long been in short supply. They took advantage of the chaos in Taiyuan Prefecture to write off the accounts.) If it weren't for the Shenwu Changsheng Army moving to Taiyuan.  The government asked for food and was ordered to enter the city to quell the chaos.  However, there were remnants of the invading Liao people or Jurchen troops riding here, and easily captured the most important Hedong Road of the Song Dynasty!  If Hedong Road continues like this, it may completely collapse.  No matter who the enemy is, they can easily reach the edge of the Yellow River.  Crossing the frozen Yellow River is a flat plain, which leads directly to Bianliang.  The Song Dynasty established its capital here.  It was originally the biggest strategic burden.  When the war with Liao was tense, he made several plans to move the capital.  Once the alliance and peace were concluded with the Liao people, the matter was completely forgotten.  Now that the old things are being sorted out again, everyone is in a hurry and realizes that the prosperity and wealth of Bianliang is really fragile!  The Hedong incident must be dealt with.  But how to deal with it?  The first thing that matters is the soldiers and horses. Should we then pull out the Western Army?  Mobilizing the Western Army to quell the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, and finally the Northern Expedition to Yanyun.  The imperial court has spent a lot of effort and a lot of money.  In addition to having no troops and horses, they also planned to weaken the already somewhat oversized Western Army.  This time the Western Army finally struggled to get back, and they were already complaining that they would never leave Shaanxi again.  If you want to mobilize them again, you don't have half a year to mobilize them, so don't even think about it.  There is no need to ask what the situation was like in Hedong at that time.  Maybe the enemy has already reached Bianliang City!  (It was the first time in history that the Jurchens went south. Although they were King Qin, they had no conditions to negotiate, and everything was kept simple. The Western Army also came quite late. It was not the whole army, but only half of it at most. After the Jurchens surrounded Bianliang,  The Western Army just left Guandong and arrived at Bianliang. After the Jurchens withdrew from the siege, Qinzong, who took over his father's position, easily threw the Western Army in the direction of the besieged Taiyuan. As a result, the main force of the Jurchen army was defeated in the first battle and the second siege occurred.  During the Bianliang period, the remnants of the Western Army were basically unable to mobilize. These remnants later became the remnants of the Wu Jiajun in the Southern Song Dynasty, and together with Sichuan, they were the de facto vassal towns.  Should the Imperial Guard be mobilized?  Unless it is absolutely necessary, the princes of the imperial court have no intention of using the Imperial Guards.  Using these masters is not to defend against the enemy, but to seek death for oneself.  As for the Yongning Army, its strength is already weak and is still recovering.  Hebei¡¯s defense is also top priority.  Can't draw it out.  If it is true that the Jurchen Tatars and the remnants of the Liao people invaded together, all the roads in Hebei would probably have to send in reinforcements!  The army was on the verge of attack, and after much deliberation, we still decided to go with the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army.  Han Shizhong¡¯s report could not be more clear.  Because since we stationed in Hedong, we have been treated poorly by our superiors and subordinates.  The army had no desire to fight, so they retreated to Taiyuan.  If Shenwu can maintain its status as a victorious army, there will still be room for change in the Hedong situation.  Shenwu's ever-victorious army can fight alone.  Although there is no guarantee of success or failure, the incoming enemy can always be stopped and allowed to cross the Yellow River and reach Bianliang City. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off the table, all the gentlemen feel discouraged.  Although if the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army is available, it will at least buy the court time to respond to emergencies.  But it really tastes very tasteless.  There is no way he can deal with such an unruly military horse!  Counting all the important ministers who fell into their hands, including Tong Guan and others, there are no one knows how many!  In addition to troops and horses, there are also military expenses.  The army of the Song Dynasty only needs to start a war.  The cost is astronomical.  It turns out that when the imperial court sent the Shenwu Ever-victorious Army to guard the border, it gave them only hundreds of thousands of guan.  If the Western ArmyIf you know Shang Xia, you will probably laugh your big teeth off.  Once the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army is used to fight a war, the food and salary can no longer be dealt with like this.  The huge deficit that the imperial court has incurred in the past few years is far from being filled.  Relying on Xiao Yan's various tricks to make money, life became a little easier.  However, for such a huge empire, the financial plans that Xiao Yan was supposed to follow were basically a drop in the bucket.  There were too many people sharing the profit, and some Zhao Ji took it into the internal treasury and refused to take it out.  If we can really subsidize the three companies, the amount is still too small.  According to common sense estimates, this would require at least tens of millions of military expenditures.  Even if the local reserves in Hedong Road can supplement a little, the Third Department of the Central Committee will have to come up with at least more than half, a figure of six to seven million dollars.  Where can the imperial court get this money?  But when there was a war, they rushed to print a new batch of banknotes as military pay, but the soldiers refused to recognize it.  Moreover, additional banknotes will be issued. Once the market hears this news, I am afraid that the banknote market that has been struggling to maintain will collapse immediately.  Although he has no knowledge of modern finance and economics, the Three Masters of the Song Dynasty still know this simple principle of financial management.  Not as many foreign students as the Republic of China, which was said to be extremely elegant in later generations.  Doctors and Masters, Dicos, can issue legal currency gold yuan coupons with their eyes closed.  Under the shock, there is still no result in the two most important matters of military and financial affairs to deal with the accident in Hedong.  The princes in power can only hand over their conflicts and wait for Zhao Ji's holy heart to make an arbitrary decision.  In fact, for these old foxes, it might be better to leave the most difficult decision to Zhao Ji.  When the time comes, your own responsibilities will be even less.  Nowadays, the imperial court is full of party disputes. How can you still hand over the handle to political opponents on such a major matter?  Everyone pretended to be dumbfounded and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.  This is a powerful and ever-victorious army.  This Nan Laizi is afraid that he will turn over again.  But I don¡¯t know who is going to be unlucky.  This Nanlaizi's life is as hard as a knife!  But for Zhao Ji, this determination is not easy to make.  In his anxiety, he could only be patient and summon important ministers to the prison every day to question him.  But for these important ministers.  There are so many things to consider.  How can we come up with a clear attitude within two days?  No matter how Zhao Ji asked for opinions, he couldn't get the point.  In the center of the imperial court, the atmosphere has been tense these past few days.  Even in the ban, there is no longer the joy of singing and dancing in the past.  Everyone has a premonition that a big storm is brewing, but no one can tell what this storm will be like!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~ Cai Xiang¡¯s residence on Jinliangqiao Street outside Neiliangmen.  At this time, a group of Yuan's personal guards came in a hurry, surrounded by carriages and horses that had changed into winter clothes.  The Prime Minister¡¯s guard of honor.  The scale is very large.  Pedestrians on the road ran away one after another.  The carriages and horses stopped outside the gate, and several clever maids from the inner courtyard had already come out to greet them. Four strong young men were waiting respectfully carrying a chariot.  With the support of several pretty maids, the current Prime Minister Cai Jing got out of the car.  On weekdays, Cai Jing, who always pays attention to health and maintains excellent health, although he is tall, always waves and retreats.  I would rather take a few steps home to evacuate my muscles and bones.  Slowly wander into the inner house.  But today.  But he looked tired, and the bags under his eyes were a little blue.  The layers of wrinkles are denser than on other days, and the look of decay is more obvious.  He glanced at the chariot and sat on it without saying a word.  The four young men stood up as soon as they screamed. Without moving their upper bodies, they steadily carried the chariot inside.  Several maids hurriedly served tea, soup and drinks, and put up feather fans to protect Cai Jing from the wind.  Niao Tingting followed closely inside.  Cai Jing was afraid that there would be no more than seventeen or eight people waiting around him before he entered the ceremony gate. Cai You had already hurriedly descended the steps and said, "Father, my son, see you here. My father ordered me not to disturb my ears and eyes when I came here, so I  I can't greet you outside the door, please forgive me." Cai Jing waved his hand feebly, indicating that he understood.  Cai You hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and asked, "What did the father do when he saw the child?" Cai Jing sighed and said in a weak voice: "You were once an important minister involved in political affairs, but you still do this?  I can't hold my breath anymore. If you have anything to do, let's talk about it later. Don't worry about it now." Cai You dared to say anything like this.  He respectfully followed Cai Jing's chariot, and pretended to lend a hand, showing off his pure filial piety.  If it weren't for the occasional sneak peek at the pretty maids around Cai Jing, this performance would have been full marks.  After waiting for Cai Jing to enter, the concubine helped Cai Jing change his clothes, and then gave Cai Jing ginseng and ginseng soup to replenish his vitality.  A little more massage to relax for a while.  Cai Jingcai, with the support of two maids,I walked slowly to my study room.  Cai You didn't dare to follow Cai Jing into the inner room, so he waited in the study. At this time, he was already a little anxious waiting.  Hearing Cai Jing's footsteps, he quickly straightened his expression and respectfully welcomed Cai Jing into the study room.  Then he took the dragon ball tea soup from the hand of the maid, tested the heat with the back of his hand, and served it with both hands.  Then he took a step back, bowed his back and waited for Cai Jing to speak.  Cai Jing looked at his son, sighed softly, and said, "Do you know what happened in Hedong today?" The war against Yan has been settled for these days, but Cai You is still idle.  Both the government and the public seemed to have forgotten that Cai Jing's son had entered the Imperial Academy and had become a high-ranking official involved in political affairs.  Cai You is the most passionate person, how can he bear this.  I camped in the capital every day, trying to find a way to recover.  However, the person in power now, Liang Shicheng, ignored him because he returned to Cai Jing's sect again.  Cai Jing is the prime minister, and the seats in the political hall are full.  It is impossible to give up your place in the house to your son.  From any perspective, it is impossible for the old party's Qingliu lineage, which is gradually being used, to come together with Cai You.  After all these days, it turned out to be fruitless.  Although the retaliation was fruitless, Cai You's information was still well-informed.  The Hedong incident was so big that it would inevitably involve huge changes in the political situation in the DPRK and China. How could he not care about it?  For a while, he even thought about finding a position as the pacifier of Hedong. If he achieved military success, it would be logical to return to the center and enter the two palaces.  But think again about the fierce fighting and danger in the battle against Yan.  The unlucky appearance of his family after being implicated by Tong Guan.  He immediately gave up the idea and swore that he would never serve as an official in a foreign country again in this life.  Cai Jingdong asked. The thoughts in his mind were spinning rapidly, and he answered respectfully: "How could the child not know? The land east of the river has fallen, Taiyuan City is in chaos, and the civil and military are at odds. The ever-victorious army of divine and powerful forces is of no use. It seems that there is a great danger of collapse.  "My father has been working hard recently and must have discussed this matter with the saint." Cai Jing asked slowly, "Who do you think will benefit the most from this matter?" Cai You thought about it carefully and realized that his father was testing himself.  He also vaguely felt that he would not be idle for long.  So answer with doubly caution.  "After thinking about it, is it that Nan Laizi? It turns out that when the news came about the instability of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, he was the one who was the most tabooed. But when the trouble got to such an extent, we had to take advantage of him Hedong Road Zhuge Liang  The official is also useless. The important town of Taiyuan can cause chaos! Now besides relying on the Shenwu Changsheng Army, who else can we rely on? Since we need the Shenwu Changsheng Army to provide death, we can't use Nan Laizi to disrupt the army's morale  This Nan Laizi is really tough. This way he can still get lucky!" Cai Jing nodded and was quite satisfied with Cai You's answer: "In addition to this, there is another financial plan.  Now that the rest of the court can't move, we just hope that Xiao Yan can squeeze out a military expenditure. We have to rely on him for both military and financial affairs. Naturally, he is the one who will benefit the most from the Hedong incident."  He smacked his lips, jealousy and anger mixed in his heart.  Needless to say, he was jealous, Xiao Yan suddenly became famous again.  The family is still struggling to recover.  The situation is very different.  What was Xiao Yancai's status when he returned south?  What is Xiao Yan's status?  It's a world of difference.  But now in Bianliang, if you ask ten people, ten of them know Xiao Xianmo, how many of them still remember this little Xianggong Cai?  If you want Xiao Yan to work for you, you have to give him a bonus.  His official rank is already too high, reaching the fourth rank.  At this age, there is no way to improve.  The only thing I can do is make up my mind on dispatching.  He is already the Vice-Capital of the Privy Council. If he takes another step forward, wouldn't he be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with important ministers such as the Counselor of Political Affairs?  Although under the rule of saints nowadays, luck has become a common thing, but it is too shocking to do it like Xiao Yan.  What I hate is that I once wooed Xiao Yan at the banquet of the three kings Zhao Kai.  He wanted Xiao Yan to form a party with his family and use their strength to make a comeback.  At that time, seeing Xiao Yan's reputation and connecting with the three great kings, Zhao Kai, might be a way out.  But Xiao Yan didn't give him this face, which immediately made Mr. Cai have a bad impression of him and even made him angry.  Although Xiao Yan was feared again later, the sound and light suddenly fell down, and even the three kings Zhao Kai followed him out of his mansion.  Cai You was a blessing in disguise, but his hatred for Xiao Yan was still the same as before and would never get easier.  For a pure villain like Cai You, he will always remember whoever he hates, and it will be difficult to shake him.  But no matter how jealous or angry you are, what can you do?  After all, he could not bring out a victorious army with divine martial arts, nor could he personally go into battle to defeat Yan Yun.  Not to mention the ability to make money from nothing, he sent large sums of money to Zhao Ji's inner treasury in units of millions.  After feeling uncomfortable for a while, Cai You managed to pretend to be open-minded and said, "That's the case, that's all. Let's see if this Nan Laizi can clean up the mess in Hedong Do we want him to go out to suppress Hedong?" Cai Jing shook his head.  ?"It is impossible to go out to suppress Hedong for the time being. The Shenwu Changsheng Army is outside. Xiao Yan must be inside. Unless there is another big change, Xiao Yan will not be able to get out of Bianliang  Taking advantage of Xiao Yan again, the saint is still in a dilemma, and he is still in doubt." Cai You couldn't help but ask again: "Why?" After asking, Cai You scolded himself for being stupid.  Why is Zhao Ji hesitant? Isn¡¯t it the same reason as before?  Xiao Yan's background, his influence on the Shenwu Changsheng Army, and the financial resources he now controls.  All of them are taboo factors.  After all, Zhao Ji was still the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and he still used the ruling laws of the Song Dynasty.  How can people like Xiao Yan remain standing and occupy such an important position?  Not to mention that it would take him a step further and his momentum would increase even more.  Cai Jing shook his head slightly again and said softly: "A saint always has to make a decision. Apart from pushing Xiao Yan out, who else can be used at this moment? No one is willing to jump into this fire pit easily. Wu Min seems to be finding it difficult to settle down in Hedong.  He is in the comfort position. But who is willing to take his place and get along with such arrogant warriors as Shenwu Changshengjun? If something goes wrong, Wu Min will end up" Cai You finally became impatient. Today, Baba  summoned himself.  Are you just talking about Xiao Yan?  You know, my Mr. Cai¡¯s affairs are not trivial!  In this case, it is better to take a break.  See if there are any other options.  This matter is bound to involve people rising up and down the court. Could it be that I, Mr. Cai, can't get a position?  He reluctantly bowed.  Trying to maintain a respectful attitude.  "Father, my child has benefited a lot from what I have taught you today. I can see the situation in the capital more clearly. My child must be careful in his words and actions these days and avoid getting involved in the chaos in front of me. My father is also tired, so he should rest early. My child  Come back another day to save the trouble, father" Cai Jing snorted and raised his hand to point at Cai You: "When will you be able to have a deeper city and be more patient? I am already in my dying years, and the Cai family is a wealthy family.  , How can I rely on you to survive?" Cai You lowered his head and remained silent.  Anyway, he was used to being scolded by Cai Jing.  Now I feel nothing about these words.  That day, he left his father's house, walked with Wang Fu, and finally let Cai Jing take the throne.  Maybe there is some rebelliousness among some sons towards Lao Tzu.  Mr. Cai is still a young and middle-aged man Cai Jing is barely calm.  He said softly: "Today's discussion is related to you. We need to use troops in the east of the river, and the Privy Council can no longer be vacant. Moreover, Xiao Yan, the Vice-Capital of the Privy Council, cannot go to his appointed position, and the financial affairs of the Imperial Army must be sorted out by him. It must be done.  Someone is pressing on his head" Cai You was already happy: "What does the father mean, does the saint want the child to take over the West Mansion? This, this, this does not make sense in the system" He  It is true to say that the father leads the east mansion and the son leads the west mansion.  No emperor would tolerate this happening.  But Cai You said he didn¡¯t believe it.  On one side, he looked like he was overjoyed.  But he couldn't wait to stretch out his hand from his throat and snatch the Privy Councilor's position.  Comment according to Xiao Yan's words.  Cai You also couldn't hold two ounces of sesame oil in his belly.  Cai Jing glanced at him and said angrily: "Of course I won't let you take charge of the Xifu! Firstly, it violates the system. Secondly, your qualifications are not enough. You only served as a counselor for political affairs, and the Hebei road pacification system appointed deputy envoys for foreign affairs.  In the end, I was offended. How could I get the position of Privy Councilor to lead the Xifu? Today, Li Gang and Li Boji, who were recommended by Liang Shicheng, were promoted to serve as the governor of the Xifu.  The saint has already nodded, and Zha Zi will come down the next day. Isn¡¯t your mission finally found?¡± Cai You was startled and immediately called out to Tianqu: ¡°What¡¯s wrong with Li Boji?¡±  What kind of qualifications do you have? Although he has high expectations, he has never served in a major state. Even if he is recalled to the capital, how can a young minister be enough to lead the Xifu? Why is it that he can't be a privy envoy?  Sent? The child once served as an advisor to the Dongfu government. How could he not be sent by the capital to serve as a minister? Instead of doing this, it would be better to send the child to go out to know a large state! " Cai Jingsen looked at Cai You and said coldly!  : "The position of the Hedong Road pacifier and judge of Taiyuan Mansion is available. Do you want it? Where are the king Fu Tongguan and others who offended you and others back then? You are the one who is waiting for the crime. It is a special favor to be demoted and used.  . What else do you expect? But you have achieved something, and you are afraid that you will not be able to return to the position of the two houses? "Cai You is overwhelmed by Cai Jing's momentum and dare not complain.  Dad promised his family a future, and it seemed that he could count on it.  Thinking about it, compared with Tong Guan Wang Fu, I am really lucky.  Not only has he not left Bianliang, but he has to be sent again after more than a year.  There seems to be nothing unjustifiable.  It's just that I can't live with my face In this current situation, what's the point of talking about face?  But he is still unwilling to accept it, muttered and complained again: "But this position of deputy chief, no matter how hard it is, it is not Li Boji's turn" Cai Jing's tone was still cold: "Other than Li Boji, who else has such hope?  Who else would dare to fight with Xiao Yan who suppressed Ping Yan? Who else would be willing to jump into this pit of fire in such an emergency? Who could say anything?  Wu Nayan replaced Li Boji. The Qingliu old party's momentum was not declining, and the re-appointment of you as the capital also balanced the situation in the governor's office, so that the Qingliu old party would not gain momentum by regaining the position of Xifu.  The appointment of a person has been planned for a long time by the saint's heart, and it is just the recommendation of the saint. If you still have any complaints, I will resign for you." Cai You smiled awkwardly.  , and did not answer what Dad said.  At this time, he could also understand that Cai Jing actually spent a lot of effort on his important tasks.  You must know that Li Gang and Cai Jing have never dealt with each other, if Li Boji is allowed to return to Bianliang.  Cai Jing's life is not necessarily easy either.  No one dares to resist this Li Boji!  "Tacitly allow Li Boji to return to the capital, or make an extraordinary move and actually take charge of the Privy Council as Vice-President. The only condition in exchange is to re-appoint his son, who was reviled for his crime.  Seeing that Cai Jing was silent, Cai You spoke cautiously: "Father Is this it? Xiao Yan escaped from the catastrophe this time, Li Boji returned to the center, and the people in the old party got a blessing in disguise The child is nothing. Father.  After all the hard work, it¡¯s just like this?¡± Based on Cai You¡¯s understanding of Cai Jing, his father has always been the one who holds the most power.  For a long period of time, it can be said that one hand covers the sky in the court.  Although he has maintained a sufficiently low profile since his reappearance.  However, everyone in the court thought that Cai Jing was just forbearing for the time being, and would definitely use his strength at some point to fight in the court.  Let your cronies swarm the court and drive out all your former enemies.  Something happened in Hedong, which was a huge shock to the chaotic and unclear court situation in Bianliang at this time.  The forces in the temporary stalemate between North Korea and China will definitely take this opportunity to reshuffle the cards. All forces are waiting for the best opportunity to start fighting with all their strength.  Cai You expected that his father would be like this too.  Now it seems that Cai Jing seems to be lacking in fighting spirit.  Agree with the old party to move Li Gang and Li Boji back to the capital, and move them beyond the rule to take charge of such important positions as the Privy Council.  In exchange, it would be too easy to talk to him if he became a privy councilor and accepted the decree.  Cai Jing¡¯s face showed a look of exhaustion and he leaned back a little.  After a long while, he said softly: "You'er, I am already over eighty, and I am almost nine years old In the future, the Cai family will still have to be left to you to maintain I no longer want the Cai family to have any more  I am so prosperous when you are here. After you get back on your feet, you will work hard as an official. You must not get involved in the fight between Li Boji and Xiao Yan The imperial court always treats the scholar-bureaucrats favorably, as long as you don't cause any trouble.  , Just be obedient when things happen, and it is expected that you will be a U.S. official in the future. What does it mean to be in charge of the two houses? As long as nothing happens in the Song Dynasty, your generation will still be prosperous.  What happens next is not what I can worry about now. How can there be a family like Changbao Guisheng in the world? That's it, that's it" Speaking of the future, this man once held the top position in the Song Dynasty for more than ten years.  The young husband looks like he has an endless desolation on his face.  He had no intention of talking to Cai You anymore and waved his hand to Cai You to leave.  Cai You wanted to say something else, but he didn't say it after all.  After bowing respectfully, he slowly exited.  Cai Jing stayed in the inner study and was silent for a long time.  After clapping their hands gently, several pretty maids appeared quietly. Without waiting for Cai Jing's instructions, they helped him up and led him back to the inner room.  When he walked into the courtyard, Cai Jing stopped and glanced in the direction of the forbidden area.  The weather today is not necessarily very good. There are clouds and low pressure overhead.  I don¡¯t know what happened to Bianliang, the imperial capital with its ever-changing atmosphere.  There was a hint of indifference.  "A strong wind is about to rise It's hard to say what the future will be like if Xiao Yan doesn't fall this time Is this Song Dynasty still the original Song Dynasty?"
