Seeing the smile on Zhao Zhen's face, Chen Lin also laughed, "The slave servant is a person next to the official. If he can't make the official happy, then the servant should be pulled out and killed."
Zhao Zhen just said a lot, but Chen Lin only stared at Zhao Zhen's initial response.
He turned a deaf ear to the words behind Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen glared at Chen Lin when he heard Chen Lin's witty words.
The smile on Chen Lin's face is even brighter.
Zhao Zhen didn't speak any more, and sat down slowly, ready to take a swig from the teacup, but after holding the teacup, he seemed to remember something, and the expression on his face changed a little.
"Damn Cao Wei, I almost missed business when I was hit by him."
Zhao Zhen cursed in a low voice, and turned his head to tell Chen Lin, "Go and call me Cao Wei's servant back."
Chen Lin was taken aback, nodded in response, and was about to go out to invite Cao Wei.
Just not two steps away, I heard Zhao Zhen’s helpless voice sounded behind him, "Forget it... I'll go and see him... He is poor and can't stand the toss. In case the toss falls apart, Yelu Longxu may be Laughing to death."
Chen Lin hurriedly stopped and complimented: "The officials are kind..."
Zhao Zhen curled his lips in dissatisfaction, "Benevolent ass, since I dealt with the imperial relatives and Wu Xun, among the wealthy and powerful families in Bianjing, there have been people spreading rumors and calling me overbearing."
Zhao Zhen snorted, stared at Chen Lin and asked, "Are I overbearing?"
Chen Lin gave a wry smile, without words.
In his eyes, Zhao Zhen said domineering and domineering, benevolence and kindness.
The difference is to look at people.
Facing the minister of the humerus who contributed to Song Dynasty, Zhao Zhen was really kind, even if the other party ran into him, he would pretend not to know.
In the face of the corrupt officials lying on Da Song's body, Zhao Zhen is really domineering and kills if he wants to kill him. No one can persuade him.
For example, some relatives of the concubines in the palace relied on their own identity to behave outside. Zhao Zhen saw one cut off the other.
He turned a deaf ear to whether it was the concubines blowing pillow breeze or the Queen Mother babbling in his ears.
Today, among the relatives of the emperor, there is a word circulating.
Rumors said, don't be the emperor's brother-in-law in whatever you do. The emperor always uses his brother-in-law to perform the operation.
After this was spread out, the emperor's brother-in-laws were pitiful and well-behaved.
Nowadays, in the ranks of bullying men and women, you can't see the emperor's brother-in-laws anymore. Instead, they often see the emperor's brother-in-laws in good deeds.
Under the double control of the emperor and their family, the former tyrant of Bianjing became the best of Bianjing.
This matter has become a conversational resource for the people, and it has been widely spread.
Seeing that Chen Lin had no words, Zhao Zhen didn't bother to ask Chen Lin. He stepped out of the Jinta Temple, and Chen Lin cautiously followed behind him.
Cao Wei didn't know, Zhao Zhen hadn't finished speaking, and was rushing to where he was.
Cao Wei walked out of the Golden Pagoda Temple, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, a bright smile came to the corner of his mouth, and he muttered in a low voice, "The official is a good official..."
In a simple sentence, what is contained in it is not something outsiders can guess.
Today, he confronted Zhao Zhen, and Zhao Zhen scolded him badly. Not only was he not angry, he was not afraid, but he was happy.
If anyone knew about this, they would doubt whether Cao Wei was a lunatic.
After all, people who can laugh after being scolded are either lunatics or conspirators.
Cao Wei is not a qualified conspirator, otherwise he would not be able to hold his head under the pressure of a civil servant when Zhao Heng was in power.
Cao Wei is in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops, so he can't be a lunatic naturally.
The reason why he can laugh out loud is because he has gained a lot today.
Today, he took the risk of offending Zhao Zhen and said those taboo things for the main purpose of Di Qing and Zhao Run.
If Di Qing has nothing to do with him or the Cao family, he doesn't care about Di Qing's future.
However, Di Qing is now deeply involved with the Cao family.
Not only his apprentice, but also his niece and son-in-law.
It's half of the Cao family.
If Cao Wei is dead, if Di Qing is willing, he can gather the strength of the Cao family in the army.
There are even some people who don't need Di Qing to deliberately solicit, and they will join Di Qing, the son-in-law of the Cao family.
Di Qing is likely to become the third military representative of the Cao family after Cao Wei.
If Di Qing replaced Cao Wei as the third military representative of the Cao family, it would be of great benefit to both Di Qing and the Cao family.
But now it's different.
Now the daughter of the Cao family is the queen, and the nephew of the Cao family is the prince.
A crown prince, plus a military boss.
It is easy to be targeted.
If Zhao Zhen is old and weak, that's all.
But now that Zhao Zhen is strong and strong, can he tolerate a crown prince and a military boss slowly sitting under his nose
For any emperor who is ambitious and values imperial power, adding the crown prince to the military magnate is equivalent to equating the word usurper.
Cao Wei was afraid that after he died, Zhao Zhen would be afraid of Di Qing and the prince, and would suppress Di Qing and the prince.
That's why today, I risked a big deal and tried Zhao Zhen.
Cao Wei knows Di Qing.
Di Qing is a real handsome talent.
Even without his teachings from Cao Wei, as long as Di Qing dabbles in the industry, he will soon be able to get ahead.
Cao Wei did not dare to assert whether he could appear in the court on behalf of the military ministers.
However, it is still very possible to sit on one side and become a pillar of the border of the Great Song Dynasty.
Such talents shouldn't be buried, let alone be hidden in snow.
Especially now that the generals of Song Dynasty are very scarce, he shouldn't cut his arm.
Cao Wei saw clearly that under the pressure of Emperor Taizu Emperor Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizong Emperor Zhao Guangyi, and Emperor Zhenzong Zhao Heng, the military minister was already in a precarious position.
Not only that, but there are also some unanswered questions.
Today, the civil and military in the court can live in peace, not because the military minister is strong enough to be on the same level as the civil servants.
But because the head of the military minister is Kou Ji.
Kou Ji protects the military ministers, and the civil servants can't beat Kou Ji, so there is no way to attack the military ministers under Kou Ji's protection.
In the final analysis, that was the power of Kou Ji, not the power of the military ministers.
Kou Ji is still young now, and it is hard to say where he will go in the future.
Once Kou Ji leaves the Privy Council, the Privy Council will immediately show signs of decline.
Regardless of Zhong Shiheng's bluffing in the court, he can fight and has some means, but he can't frighten civil servants.
Zhu Neng has always disliked being an early bird, so once the military minister is on the weaker side, he will definitely shrink and defend himself.
Therefore, the military ministers in the court can easily fall into a situation of being confronted by others.
More importantly, there are few handsome talents and few generals. Once the old batch of handsome talents and generals pass away, the court is likely to fall into a situation where no one is available.
If the court has no generals available, it will not be far from being beaten.
Regardless of the fact that the court is now sharp, it is almost invincible.
But when it comes to being handsome, he will always fall into a dilemma.
This time Kou Ji rushed to Hexi and took away Di Qing and Chong Shiheng. When the court dealt with the Liao Kingdom, there was almost no commander available, which is an example.
Once Cao Wei, Chong Shiheng, and Zhu Neng died, Di Qing was suppressed again.
The three of Wang Kai, Yang Wenguang, and Li Zhaoliang couldn't hold up half the sky of Song Dynasty.
It's not that Cao Wei looks down on them, but that they are really close.
Cao Wei felt that Da Song had finally gotten up, so he should guard the current situation of hegemony, and could not kneel down anymore.
Therefore, Di Qing had to protect him both in public and private.
After some trial and error, Cao Wei was really happy to know that Zhao Zhen was tolerant.
He was happy that Zhao Zhen was a wise emperor and that Di Qing could meet a Ming master.
As long as Zhao Zhen can reuse Di Qing, Cao Wei can guarantee that Di Qing can keep the Song Dynasty peaceful for decades.
People were taught by him, and he knew how much they could be patient.
While he was happy, he also had some sighs. If he had met Zhao Zhen earlier, he would not even be able to destroy the country, and whether he was included in the Zhaoxun Chongde Pavilion, he was criticized by others. The relationship goes in.
In addition to helping Di Qing test Zhao Zhen, Cao Wei also helped his nephew test Zhao Zhen by the way.
Let's see what Zhao Zhen thinks of Li Chu.
See if his nephew can safely be a peaceful prince.
Zhao Zhen told him the answer, and he was very satisfied.
Either become the crown prince, or go to Kou Ji's side as a long-term follower.
No matter which one, Cao Wei is very satisfied.
If Zhao Zhen enrolled Zhao Run as the crown prince, with his contribution to protect the body and his old love, Zhao Zhen would definitely favor Zhao Run.
If Zhao Zhen did not register Zhao Run as the crown prince, he would instead send Zhao Run to be the head of Kou Ji.
That's better.
The queen and Cao Tong tried their best to tie Zhao Run and Kou Mansion together.
But Kou Ji never agreed.
If Zhao Zhen took the shot and forced Zhao Run to give Kou Ji, then the empress and Cao Yu's thoughts would be easily achieved.
As Zhao Run, if Zhao Zhen really forced him to compete with Kou Ji, Kou Ji would not be able to let him be a long-term follower.
The best excuse for Zhao Run to stay with Kou Ji is the teachers and students.
You can't be a son-in-law, but it's also good to be a teacher and student.
Sometimes the role of teachers and students in politics is far greater than that of Weng-in-law.
There are many students under Kou Ji's school, and all of them are now showing their prominence, and they are destined to become characters in the future.
If Zhao Run became a student of Kou Ji, then he and Kou Ji's other students would be brothers.
Whether it's close or close, it's very easy.
At that time, there will be a bunch of powerful brothers to help, plus Queen Cao and the Cao family behind their backs.
Zhao Run's position as prince will be more secure and easier.
As long as Zhao Zhen arranges Zhao Run with Kou Ji, when Zhao Zhen establishes the prince and who is the prince, it doesn't matter at all.
Because Kou Ji did not speak, Zhao Zhen wanted to make other princes princes, and the Manchu civil and military would not agree.
The civil servants have always adhered to the orderly system of elders and children.
So as long as Zhao Run didn't make a big mistake and Zhao Zhen wanted to make other princes princes, the civil servants would not agree.
As for those few careerists, it's hard to get things done.
In the face of absolute strength and absolute power, careerists can only sigh with excitement.
Therefore, when Zhao Zhen made the other princes princes, the attitude of the military minister played a key role.
Kou Ji nodded, and the military ministers nodded.
Kou Ji did not nod, and the military ministers did not nod.
Kou Ji is a husband, it is impossible to push his disciple's position as a prince, right
Obviously not.
Because Kou Ji doesn't like to give good things to others.
Although Kou Ji didn't like the throne himself.
But if he really gave the decision-making power to him, he would definitely push someone close to him up.
Because Cao Wei got a satisfactory answer from Zhao Zhen, even if Zhao Zhen scolded him, she still smiled.
Cao Wei got on the sedan chair and smiled and told the sedan chair to carry him to the city lord's mansion.
On the way, Cao Wei hummed an unknown little tune even more leisurely.
After humming halfway, I can't hum anymore.
Because a faint voice rang outside Cao Wei's sedan chair, Cao Wei almost planted his head out of the sedan chair.
"Cao Aiqing... Confronting me makes you so happy?!"
Cao Wei froze, quickly opened the curtain, and looked out, and saw a familiar face staring at him through the window of the carriage.
Cao Wei gave a wry smile, preparing to tell the bearer to stop the sedan chair.
Zhao Zhen took the lead and told the bearers carelessly: "Don't stop..."
Zhao Zhen retracted his gaze, fell on Cao Wei, and said with a smile: "Cao Aiqing don't stop, continue singing. Since I left Bianjing, I haven't heard a little song full of Bianjing flavor for a long time."
Cao Wei said bitterly: "Chen... Chen..."
Cao Wei hesitated twice in a row.
Zhao Zhen glanced at him, "Sing! Do you want to resist the decree?"
Cao Wei's expression was even more bitter, "The minister will be like that."
Zhao Zhen snorted, "When you Cao Wei was young, you were not only a hegemon in the barracks, but also a hegemon in Bianjing. Now the things played by those daddy boys in Bianjing are all you Cao Wei used to play. leftover.
Speaking of the familiarity with the fireworks and willow alley, the self-proclaimed old guys in the hall may not be as good as you.
Flowers, birds, fish and insects, shallow singing and low chanting, without you Cao Wei is not proficient.
So, do you not only want to resist the decree, but also want to deceive the king? "
When Cao Wei heard this, he understood Zhao Zhen's thoughts.
He just made Zhao Zhen uncomfortable in the Golden Pagoda Temple, and Zhao Zhen now decisively retaliated.
The big hats were buttoned on his head one by one.
Although it is impossible for Zhao Zhen to kill him.
But Zhao Zhen's face is still to be given, and Zhao Zhen's sovereignty is also to be maintained.
Cao Wei bit his head and said: "Chen... sing..."
After saying this, Cao Wei began to sing a little song dumbfoundingly.
It’s just being forced to sing a small song, and I don’t always sing it when I express my mood.
Zhao Zhen just held the window of the carriage with his elbows and listened all the way.
If it weren't for Cao Wei inadvertently saw the earplugs in Zhao Zhen's ears, maybe he really thought Zhao Zhen was his friend.
Zhao Zhen accompanied Cao Wei all the way to the City Lord's Mansion.
After getting off the carriage and without waiting for Cao Wei to get off the sedan chair, he walked openly into the city lord's mansion, just like walking around his back garden.
Cao Wei has no opinion on this.
For Zhao Zhen, going anywhere in the world is like going to the back garden of his home.
Even if I went to other countries, it was the same.
Because Zhao Zhen dared to go to other countries, it means that those countries have been controlled by the Song Dynasty, and they can be regarded as the back garden of the Song Dynasty.
The back garden of Song Dynasty is Zhao Zhen's back garden.
After Zhao Zhen entered the City Lord's Mansion, he was not polite, and ordered Chen Lin to instruct the servants in the City Lord's Mansion to go round and round.
When Cao Wei found Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen had already sat down in an attic of the city lord's mansion, holding a copy of "Liao Guozhi" in his hand, and tea was placed in front of him.
Cao Wei stepped forward, sat opposite Zhao Zhen, took the initiative to help Zhao Zhen pour tea, and then softly asked: "The official comes to find the minister, I am afraid it is not just to let the minister sing a small song, right?"
Zhao Zhen pretended to be taken aback, put down the book in his hand, curled his lips and said: "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot. But I have doubts and need you to answer."
Cao Wei bowed his hand and made a gesture of wishing to hear the details.
Zhao Zhen sighed: "You tell me, if Yang Wenguang can't stop the Liao soldiers in the northern border, will the Liao soldiers in the northern border kill Bianjing?"
Cao Wei was taken aback, smiled and shook his head and said: "No...not to mention Bian Capital, they are considered to be great if they can pass Xingqing Mansion."
"Oh?!"
Zhao Zhen looked puzzled, "There is only Yang Wenguang in the north. If he loses, there will be no soldiers and horses to stop the Liao soldiers."
Cao Wei smiled and said: "Couldn't the officials forget that the northern border is a place under military control, and almost all the people are soldiers. The people who migrated from the Song Dynasty and the Xixia people who have been naturalized in recent years are countless. Numbers in a million.
The people who migrated in the past almost all started their business through military merit.
Their desire for military merit is just like their desire for land, endless.
And those Xixia people who have been naturalized need to use military merits to prove their loyalty to my Da Song, so that my Da Song can recognize them as the people of my Da Song and divide the land and cattle and sheep for them.
Xixia people who are not naturalized need to use military skills to cleanse themselves of their sins.
Therefore, the millions of people living in the entire Northern Territory are a group of people who aspire to military merit.
None of them are good stubborns.
Liao soldiers had to leave their heads behind if they wanted to pass in front of them. "
Zhao Zhen said solemnly, "Those Xixia people in recent years have caused trouble to me."
Cao Wei said frankly: "It is only a small part of the former Xixia nobles who cause trouble. Xixia people have rarely caused trouble in recent years. Although my Dasong is harsh on Xixia people, I have never deducted their rations.
And when they were under Li Deming, many people were actually not full of food.
Who is good and who is bad, the people have a steelyard in their hearts.
They made trouble because the sentence set by Kou Ji was too long.
Some of them did not see the hope of being released after serving their sentence, so they had to make trouble.
Now that there is a quick atonement, how could they miss it
After all, with the exception of a few careerists, most of the people still hope to have their own land, their own cattle and sheep, and then steadfastly act as obedience to the official family. "
After hearing what Cao Wei said, Zhao Zhen nodded intently.
Kou Ji's labor reform sentence set for those people is indeed too long.
Some military leaders in the control area can't understand those guys, so they find some reasons at every turn and impose punishment on those stabbing heads.
There was no such thing as life imprisonment in the Song Dynasty.
But since the Song Dynasty took Xixia and put Xixia into the military control area, talks such as life imprisonment appeared.
If it weren't for Wang Sui to formulate some regular management stripes after he arrived at Xingqing Mansion, I am afraid that it would not be long before three generations of life imprisonment would come out for you.
Under such circumstances, some people who have been reformed through labor will naturally refuse to agree and will cause trouble.
Because they can't see the hope of turning over.
Nowadays, in places like Xingqing Mansion, there are only two ways to turn around outside of labor reform.
One is reading.
One is military merit.
The former is more uncomfortable for adult prisoners who have been rehabilitated through labor than life imprisonment.
The latter is more acceptable to adult prisoners who have been reformed through labor.
Because they are not kind.
When Li Deming used to beg for life, kind people would be bullied to death.
So they had to take up knives, guns and clubs, arm themselves, and try to make themselves like a jackal.
In this way, you will not be bullied.
Only in this way can I barely survive.
Now that they have returned to the Great Song Dynasty, they naturally want to live better after their lives are easier.
The poor soldiers of the Song Dynasty could use their lives to seek wealth.
They can too.
They can even do more ruthlessly than the poor soldiers of the Song Dynasty.
The poor soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty will only do their best.
But they dare to fight with the whole family.
As long as the most valued person in the family can survive, everyone else is dead, and they don't care.
This is the law of survival on the grassland.
The young and strong eat food first, followed by children, and women and the elderly eat last.
If you have nothing to eat, you are hungry.
In the event of a natural disaster, when someone needs to sacrifice, the elderly die first, then the women, then the children, and finally the young and strong.
When Zhao Zhen attacked Xixia, it happened to be winter.
When he marched, he encountered such a tribe.
A very poor tribe.
If there is no cow dung to resist wind and frost, human walls are used to keep out the cold.
The elderly are at the outermost level, followed by women, followed by children, and young and strong in the middle.
Therefore, before the people who had undergone labor reform had not fully integrated into the Song Dynasty.
Such a law will continue to continue on that land.
When they need to work hard, young and strong can give up, but what can't be done for the old and weak women and children
So it's definitely the most common thing for the whole family to go to battle.
After Zhao Zhen analyzed Cao Wei's words thoroughly, he couldn't help but sigh, "They are just ordinary people..."
Cao Wei said sternly: "But they are crowded..."
Zhao Zhen sighed and nodded.
Cao Wei was right.
They are crowded.
More ants can kill elephants, not to mention a group of wolves that have been accustomed to hunting on the grassland.
If they were dispatched, many people might die.
But the Liao people wanted to step under their noses, and it was very difficult.
Zhao Zhen's gaze fell on Cao Wei, and he muttered: "After this battle, they might have a more sense of belonging to my Da Song."
Cao Wei stared at Zhao Zhen and said seriously: "Didn't the officials say it? You will not treat anyone who works for my Da Song. They work hard for my Da Song, shouldn't I Da Song give them one? Identity?"
Zhao Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and said with a laugh: "It's time!"
…
