Zhao Zhen is quite knowledgeable. He saw that someone dared to speak serious nonsense in front of him. In his eyes, the crime of deceiving the emperor did not seem to exist.
From Zhao Zhen's accession to the throne, he has never seen such a brazen man.
Unfortunately, Zhao Zhen knew that the other party was talking nonsense, but he couldn't deal with him for deceiving the king.
Zhao Zhen stared at Kou Ji with a bit of resentment: "Is the fourth brother still my old boy? Although I haven't seen that Xiangu He, Lv Aiqing visited Sanqingguan yesterday and met Xiangu He.
Lv Aiqing said that He Xiangu is not only a peerless beauty, but also a talented woman who is proficient in the study of scriptures, even if she discusses knowledge with him, she does not fall behind.
Lv Aiqing also said that He Xiangu is a rare kind-hearted person.
She has adopted many homeless children in just a few days after she entered the city of Bianjing. "
Kou Ji was slightly moved when he heard this.
Lu Yijian went to see a monk, who was still a woman, who worked at the same school as a student in the same school. Is it really appropriate
Aren't you afraid that someone will take advantage of the question, or fall into the trap designed by others
Kou Ji said contemptuously: "The old Lu Yijian is not ashamed, and he is obviously interested in seeing him. He sees that they are a little bit charming, so he feels that people fart are good.
You Dao is stunned by color.
Lu Yijian was bewildered by her beauty, and the officials couldn't believe what she said. "
When Zhao Zhen heard the words, the corners of his mouth twitched.
Kou Ji dared to criticize Lu Yijian so unceremoniously.
Although Zhao Zhen is the Ninth Five-Year Master, it is not good to say anything bad about Lu Yijian in front of others.
Kou Ji continued: "As for He Xiangu is a kind-hearted person, it is pure nonsense. Can the officials forget that since the mudmen in Bianjing City were cleaned up by the court, there has been no such kind of homelessness inside and outside Bianjing City Returnable child.
Any child who is found to be homeless will be sent to the lonely school or nursery in Kaifeng. No matter how bad they are, they will find a family without heirs and adopt them.
Therefore, the homeless children adopted by He Xiangu must have been taken from elsewhere to pretend.
She used this to pretend to be a living god, which I'm afraid she would be very superficial.
Officials also need to be cautious. "
When Zhao Zhen heard Kou Ji's words, his face was slightly straightened.
As Kou Ji said, since the mud men in Bianjing were cleaned up by the court, there have been no such homeless juveniles inside and outside Bianjing.
The imperial court not only expanded the loneliness garden, but also built a nursery school in order to accommodate the young children rescued from the mudman's hands.
In order to prevent those immature children from being abused again.
Zhao Zhen, Kou Ji, Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, Zhang Zhibai and many others will visit the lonely garden or the nursery from time to time.
Wang Zeng went to patrol the loneliness garden and nursery school once a day.
Just send someone to stare at it for twelve hours.
Under such circumstances, those in positions in the lonely school and the nursery are extremely good to the homeless children.
In addition, when the imperial court was building the nursery hall, large merchants led by Wanxiang Tower donated some donations, and regularly provided some firewood, rice, oil, salt and fabrics to the lonely garden and nursery hall.
The life in the lonely garden and the nursery is terribly good.
The lives of young children are far better than ordinary people.
Nowadays, some people in Bianjing who can't support too many children will quietly throw them at the entrance of the lonely garden or the nursery school if they lose their children.
Those children who have suffered misfortunes in their families, the children living in the upper reaches of the street, will immediately be sent to the loneliness school and nursery school when they are discovered.
Under such circumstances, there are no wandering juveniles in Bianjing.
There is no child who lives by begging.
Because there are no beggars in Bianjing.
As long as someone is begging, Kaifeng government officials and officers from the Inspection Division will immediately appear in front of them.
The young are sent to the lonely park and nursery.
The elders grabbed into the yamen, played a board, and then escorted them to Hexi or Xingqing to do coolies in autumn.
For officials and soldiers, whether it is sending homeless young children to loneliness or nursery schools, or sending lazy people to eat sand in Hexi and other places, it is a tangible political achievement.
Often homeless juveniles or begging slackers appeared on the streets of Bianjing City, and the yamen of Kaifeng Prefecture and the officers of the Inspection Department rushed into a group.
Under such circumstances, where can He Xiangu go to adopt a homeless child
Kou Ji exposed He Xiangu's hypocrisy through this incident.
Zhao Zhen's interest in He Xiangu diminished.
But a big reduction does not mean there is no.
Zhao Zhen thought about it and said: "The fourth brother said that Xiangu He has done a lot of things. What does the fourth brother think He Xiangu will do?"
Kou Ji groaned: "I will leave you alone to become a monk, or marry into the palace to become your concubine, and then through pillow wind, let you restore the Taoist official.
Kou Ji actually couldn't guess what Xiangu He had planned.
But he might as well speculate.
He Xiangu is a monk, and when the court targeted the monk, she appeared in Bianjing.
Then she must find a way to'set out the chaos anyway' so that the court will give up targeting the monks.
On the issue of monks, Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji's attitude is the most resolute, and the methods are also the strongest.
With the deep feelings of the two of them, if He Xiangu is going to become a monk, the other will inevitably be merciful and give up targeting the monk.
In addition, after He Xiangu entered the palace and became Zhao Zhen's concubine, the same effect can be achieved through pillow wind.
Zhao Zhen heard Kou Ji's words and said with emotion: "My father finally drove the Taoist monks away from the palace, and it is impossible for me to invite them into the palace again.
Therefore, I will not covet He Xiangu's beauty and accept her as a concubine.
Fourth brother, you don't have to worry that I will fascinate you.
Not to mention lying in front of me in order to prevent me from seeing Xiangu He. "
Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen paused, and then said: "She can't be a monk by me. Because if she is a monk by me, no one from the ruling or the opposition can tolerate her.
The temples in the world might be cleansed again because of this.
So her greatest possibility is that you are going to be a monk.
I heard that when she first entered the city of Bianjing, she visited the fourth brother's mansion.
She obviously came for your fourth brother.
Fourth brother, you have to be careful. "
Kou Ji didn't agree with Zhao Zhen after hearing what Zhao Zhen said.
If He Xiangudu Zhao Zhen became a monk, the risk is indeed great.
But the benefits are greater.
Once He Xiangu crossed Zhao Zhen to become a monk, Zhao Zhen passed the throne to his children and grandchildren.
It is very likely that there will be a risk that theocratic power will prevail over the monarchy.
Zhao Zhen is not Li Yuan.
Zhao Zhen has high prestige in the ruling and opposition parties, and there is no shortage of Wenzhi Wugong.
There are many people who are loyal and loyal to the ruling and opposition parties.
Once Zhao Zhen became a monk, the monks could influence the court through Zhao Zhen's mouth.
Before Zhao Zhen's children and grandchildren have done the Wenzhi martial arts comparable to Zhao Zhen, it is difficult to replace Zhao Zhen's position in the hearts of everyone in the ruling and opposition parties.
Zhao Zhen's children and grandchildren dare not make any rebellious and unfilial actions in front of a group of loyal ministers and generals who are loyal to Zhao Zhen.
In this way, crossing Zhaozhen to become a monk, there is a chance that the divine power will prevail over the monarchy.
Therefore, crossing Zhaozhen to become a monk, the income is amazing.
On the contrary, Dukouji became a monk and did not benefit much.
Although Kou Ji is now in a high position, his influence in the Song Dynasty is quite high.
But after all, he was not the first person in the Song Dynasty.
Once left the center, the civil and military officials and the opposition will most likely forget him in a very short time.
In addition, no one can say whether Zhao Zhen will give up targeting the monks because of him.
Once Kou Ji became a monk, the possibility that Zhao Zhen would continue to target the monk was as high as ninety-nine percent.
Therefore, the income of going to Kou Ji to become a monk is far less than that of going to Zhaozhen to become a monk.
He Xiangu is a living god recognized by the people.
She is also a strange woman with both talents and looks.
Such a character has given up a lifelong shot, and will naturally choose the one with the most profit.
She used Lu Yijian to put her talent and appearance into Zhao Zhen's ears, which is a clear proof.
If she had no intention of Zhao Zhen, she would not be able to express too much in front of Lu Yijian, and it would be impossible for Lu Yijian to mention her in front of Zhao Zhen.
But this matter is just Kou Ji's conjecture, and there is no convincing proof yet.
Zhao Zhen thought again that He Xiangu was here for Kou Ji.
Kou Ji did not tell Zhao Zhen of his speculation.
After Zhao Zhen felt that He Xiangu came for Kou Ji, he suddenly lost interest in He Xiangu.
He is no shortage of women.
Two years later, it's time for a new round of picking women into the palace.
When the time comes, the concubine in the harem will be replenished again.
The 72 concubines of the Sannomiya and the Sixth Court are likely to be completed.
Among them, there are many concubines who are both talented and beautiful.
He has no reason to give up a forest for a tree.
However, Kou Ji has married Xiang Yan for more than ten years since he entered Bianjing.
In Bianjing City, and even the entire Song Dynasty, it is a wonderful flower.
The ladies of the ruling and the opposition all thought Kou Ji was a good man.
The officials in the ruling and opposition parties felt that Kou Ji was a freak.
When the civil and military officials from both the ruling and the opposition are in groups with wives and concubines, you Kou Ji guards a woman alone, isn't it a freak
Zhao Zhen felt that Kou Ji was too wronged to guard a woman all his life.
He feels that Kou Ji is his elder brother, so he should have a group of wives and concubines to enjoy the blessings of the people.
Not only that, the people in Bianjing and even the entire Song Dynasty felt that with Kou Ji's status, they should have wives and concubines in groups and enjoy the blessings of all people.
Kou Ji may not look down on those vulgar fans in the past.
But Xiangu He was obviously not a vulgar fan, but a rare strange woman.
Kou Ji should be attracted to such a woman.
This is the end of my thoughts.
Zhao Zhen chuckled and said: "Then Xiangu He wants to pass the birth of the fourth brother, and the fourth brother can also pass her into the world. I believe that Xiangu He is not the opponent of the fourth brother."
Hearing this, Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment.
After thinking about it, he guessed how much Zhao Zhen was thinking.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Zhao Zhen didn't know what was wrong, and was very keen to stuff women into his house.
Since Zhao Zhen took office, he has given nearly a hundred talented and beautiful women to the Kou Mansion.
The more Kou Ji refused to accept a concubine, the more energy he gave.
Kou Ji felt that Zhao Zhen was deliberately antagonizing him.
In order to prevent Zhao Zhen's brain from giving him a woman again, Kou Ji hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Officials, the matter of He Xiangu is for the time being. As long as our monarchs ignore her, even if she has the means to reach the sky, it will not help.
Right now, our monarchs and ministers need to pay more attention to the affairs of Shaanxi Province. "
When Zhao Zhen heard that Kou Ji was talking about business, he became serious, "Fan Zhongyan sent me memorial notes three days ago and told me that he and Pang Ji had arrived in Shaanxi Province.
After a brief understanding, the poverty of Shaanxi Province is more serious than what you and I know.
The fields found in the temples of Shaanxi Province can only help a small part of the people.
Before the textile workshop moved to Shaanxi Province, we had to think of other ways to help Fan Zhongyan relieve the pressure. "
Kou Ji thought about it and said, "Since we can't allocate land to the poor people in Shaanxi Province, we will include some of them in the army and eat a share of the army's salary.
This can also relieve Fan Zhongyan's pressure.
The Shaanxi government sent strong troops, and the local people would have some combat power after a little training.
We have formed a new army, and the elites drawn from the various armies have gradually entered the camp.
Now all that is left is to recruit new pawns to make up for the vacancy in the army.
It just so happens that the people of Shaanxi Province can be added in. "
Zhao Zhen frowned slightly and said, "Dali, especially in Jingtang and other places, has a very complex terrain and a lot of smoky places. Sichuan Prefecture is adjacent to Dali, and the people in Sichuan Prefecture should be more likely to adapt to Dali.
If new soldiers are recruited from Shaanxi and sent to the past, will they not adapt to Dali? "
Kou Ji heard the words and smiled and said: "I am also a member of Shaanxi Prefecture. I know what the people of Shaanxi Prefecture are like. They are very reticent, kind to everyone, very practical, and very hardworking.
In the flourishing ages of Qin, Han and Tang, they also contributed to them. "
Speaking of this, Kou Ji said with emotion: "They are not actually warlike."
Zhao Zhen said solemnly: "But during the Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties, Guanzhong soldiers were almost invincible and invincible."
Kou Ji laughed and said, "The reason why they are invincible and invincible is because they love home."
Zhao Zhen looked suspicious and couldn't understand.
Love home can also become a condition for invincibility and invincibility.
Seeing that Zhao Zhen had doubts in his heart, Kou Ji explained: "It is precisely because they love home, so when they go out on the expedition, they always think that they can safely remove their armour and return to the field.
On the battlefield, only after the victory can we retreat to the field in a stable and graceful manner.
After being defeated, he was either reduced to a corpse or a captive of others.
Therefore, they want to return to the field in a stable and graceful manner.
Only defeat all the enemies in front of you.
That's why they are invincible and invincible. "
When Zhao Zhen heard this, he still wrinkled his brows.
Kou Ji continued to smile and said, "Actually, my descendants of Yan and Huang are the same."
In fact, not only the Shaanxi Prefecture, but the entire Chinese descendants of Yan and Huang, when they set out on the expedition, they will have the expectation of returning to the fields.
It's just that the people in Shaanxi Province feel more deeply affected by the military merit system.
After the political, economic, and cultural centers were transferred, after the military merit system was replaced.
The number of Guanzhong soldiers leaving the pass has decreased, and they have become less conspicuous.
But some things that are inscribed in the bone marrow under the influence of the military merit system are hard to be consumed.
Many people in later generations felt that Qin's strength was due to the military merit system.
But when the Qin soldiers conquered the Six Nations, the grassroots Qin soldiers, who had reached the pinnacle by virtue of their military merits and became the most highly anticipated figures, were rare.
Therefore, the military merit system was only one of the factors that affected the strength of Qin soldiers.
What really made Qin Bing tough were the strict laws of Qin State.
Strict laws constrained Qin Bing and must rush forward indefinitely.
Because once they retreat, or fear.
Will be severely punished.
I will be cut.
Companions and family members will also be punished.
Therefore, after Qin Bing's expedition, if he wanted to safely remove his armour and return to the field, he could only go forward desperately.
Retreat, die.
Lose, die, or distribute.
Whether it is retiring or losing, it is possible that you will not be able to return home for the rest of your life.
For the descendants of Yan and Huang, they can't return home for a lifetime, which is bigger than life and death.
Kou Ji is also a person who has been on the battlefield. He knows that on the battlefield, ordinary soldiers don't care about military merit or money at all. Most of them care more about whether they can win and whether they can go home quickly.
An ordinary soldier, in order to return home, he can defect and flee at the risk of decapitation, or he can fight desperately at the risk of death.
It has always been a minority of people who spare their lives for money and military exploits.
Because on the battlefield, I want to gain great military exploits, and I want to capture more floating wealth.
You must take the same risks.
Therefore, what really supported ordinary soldiers to fight desperately on the battlefield was the words'Retire the Armor and Return to the Field', not the words'Immediately Seal the Marquis'.
For a person who has been on the go all the year round, you give him a chance to go home and reunite with his relatives, which makes him feel more happy than if you give him a large sum of money.
"People in Shaanxi Province, once they have entered the barracks, want to remove their armour and return to their fields, and want to return home, they must overcome all difficulties and strive to survive.
During this period, neither the Miasma nor the local enemies could defeat them. "
Koj said frankly.
Zhao Zhen frowned and said: "I would rather see them die on the battlefield, but I don't want to see them die under the smoke."
Kou Ji was taken aback, thinking for a while and said: "Then first transfer the Yongxing Army back and let the Tianwu Army continue to be stationed in the depths of Dali. The new army is dispatched to Jianchang Mansion and get used to the smog of Dali first. Learn how to survive and fight in Dali."
When Zhao Zhen heard this, his brows stretched out, and he said, "Just do it."
Kou Ji slowly nodded and said: "The minister will go through the Ministry of War and go to the official document to Fan Zhongyan and let him start the conscription."
Zhao Zhen nodded, and suddenly sighed: "The greatest wish of the soldiers is to return to the fields. But many of them may not be able to return to the fields for the rest of their lives."
Under the influence of Kou Ji.
Zhao Zhen had long understood that storing knives and guns and putting horses in Nanshan is the way to kill.
He also understands that the peace and prosperity are played out.
As long as there are other states in the neighbors of Song Dynasty, the war cannot stop.
Therefore, the soldiers on the border can only continue to fight forever.
Some of them were destined to bury their bones in the war.
Kou Ji heard Zhao Zhen’s emotion, and said in deep thought: “We can’t let the war completely die out from the world. The only thing we can do is to turn all the places where the corpses of my descendants of Yan Huang and grandchildren are buried into the territory of my Great Song Dynasty. Become their hometown.
In this way, they can be regarded as falling leaves back to their roots.
It will not lead to living in a foreign country and being ruined by others. "
Zhao Zhen nodded slowly and said: "I am not short of money, people, and time. The land of Yanyun and Huangyan has more than one million people buried.
I must take back the land of Yanyun and let the descendants of Yan and Huang bury them in their own land. "
Kou Ji nodded in agreement and said: "Swallow Cloud Land, we will get it back sooner or later. But the most important thing at the moment is to reform the official system first."
The official system is only part of the cultural system.
Is the most important part of it.
It is also the part of Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen who can move and have the least resistance so far.
"Once the reform of the official system is completed, before the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu launches an attack on our Song Dynasty, our Song Dynasty can take the lead in launching an attack on the Liao Kingdom."
"I'm afraid that the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will launch an attack on me until the reform of the official system is completed."
"..."
Kou Ji frowned suddenly, and asked in a deep voice, "Liao Emperor can't help it anymore?"
Zhao Zhen slowly shook his head, and said: "It's his bones that is about to be unable to hold it."
Zhao Zhen looked sideways at Kou Ji and said: "The secret melodies handed back by the spies hidden in the Liao Kingdom did not arrive in my hands until last night. The spies clearly stated in the secret melodies that the body and bones of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu are deteriorating, and it has begun in recent days Coughing up blood.
According to the imperial doctors of the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Longxu, the emperor of the Liao Dynasty, may not survive for three years. "
Kou Ji raised his brows and said, "Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu knows that he will not live for three years?"
Zhao Zhen nodded slowly.
Kou Ji asked: "Then how did he react?"
Zhao Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "He sent people to go to Goryeo again, and at the same time, he sent people to conquer the small tribes in Liao Kingdom in the name of countering the rebellion."
Kou Ji said solemnly: "He is paving the way for his son. By the way, grab some money and prepare for the Great Song war with me."
Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "Liao emperor Yelu Longxu is robbing money, and he has begun to recruit troops in the territory of Liao."
"Liao has a lot of troops... Still recruiting?"
Kou Ji frowned.
Zhao Zhen said solemnly: "I have a hunch that when the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu goes south again, the force in his hand is likely to exceed 800,000."
Kou Ji said with a solemn expression: "Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu intends to fight us desperately."
Zhao Zhen nodded slowly and said: "At that time, Yanyun's battle is very likely to be the biggest battle in the history of my Song Dynasty."
Kou Ji pondered: "We should make some preparations."
Zhao Zhen stared at Kou Ji and asked, "Four brothers are ready to equip the entire army with firearms?"
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Before I dared not equip the army with firearms on a large scale, because I was afraid that the firearms would leak out and be acquired by the Liao people.
However, since the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu had already begun to prepare to fight to the death of our Song Dynasty.
And within these three or two years.
Then we can't hide it anymore.
The firearms were equipped in the army and would not leak out too much within three or two years, so even if the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu got some firearms, it would not be a threat to us. "
Zhao Zhen nodded slowly and said, "Fourth brother thinks it can be equipped, so it will be equipped."
