"You can ask for it..."
After listening to Zhao Zhen's explanation, Empress Cao's expression eased by three points.
Jiangshan will eventually fall into the hands of her son. The safer Zhao Zhen governs Jiangshan, the safer her son will succeed.
However, Empress Cao still had some objections to the place where Zhao Zhen divided the Cao family.
Liuqiu is very far away from Bianjing, separated not only by mountains and rivers, but also by a sea.
In the eyes of most people in the Song Dynasty, Liuqiu is a barren land.
The people of the Song Dynasty hardly went to Liuqiu, only some people from the coastal areas moved to Penghu and other islands, and there were hardly many people on Liuqiu Island.
Cao's family moved to Liuqiu, that is, distribution.
In addition, Empress Cao had some other concerns.
If the Cao family had moved to Liuqiu Island, there would be no way to help Zhao Run, and Zhao Run would lose a big help.
Zhao Zhen heard Empress Cao’s words and frowned tightly together, “What’s wrong with Liuqiu? Liuqiu is also the territory of my Song Dynasty. Go out and ask, see who dares to say that Liuqiu is not the territory of my Song Dynasty. , I promise that he will not live tomorrow."
Empress Cao's face became ugly again when she heard this.
Zhao Zhen snorted and said, "You think I am sending out the Cao family, but Cao Wei doesn't think so. When I was making him the Nanhai County King, I had come to discuss with him, and he also fully agreed.
Therefore, Liuqiu was what he promised, not what I forced him.
Also, he was named a living king of a different surname, and he was not accepted by the Manchu civil and military.
If I put him in Liuqiu, the voice of impeaching him will be lower.
If I seal him in Bianjing, do you think he dare to ask for it
Can the Manchu civil and military tolerate him again? "
Empress Cao heard this and gritted her teeth slightly. She had already heard some anger in Zhao Zhen's voice, and she also knew that Zhao Zhen's heart was determined, and the matter was irreversible.
She knew that if she spoke again, she might anger Zhao Zhen, but she still spoke cautiously, "Even if the officials want my Cao clan to move, I have to leave my fourth uncle in Bianjing, right
My fourth uncle is now in danger, and there is no way to seek it. It is very likely that he will die on the road.
As a nephew, how can I watch him die on the road? "
Zhao Zhen's face was slightly cold, "He can also pass the throne to his son Cao Xu, and let Cao Xu leave with the Cao clan, and he will stay in Bianjing alone.
I didn't force him to die, and I wouldn't hurt the heroes.
The specifics depend on him, not me. "
Empress Cao frowned subconsciously.
Zhao Zhen sighed in his heart, and said, "I forgot to tell you one thing, that is, Cao Wei begged me to ask Run'er for a husband.
Run'er's husband is in Liaodi now, you turn around to help Run'er pack things up and send him there. "
Empress Cao was taken aback, and said, "Liao Di?"
Zhao Zhen stared at her without saying a word.
Empress Cao hesitated: "Kou Ji?"
Zhao Zhen still stared at her without saying a word.
Empress Cao has already got the answer.
It seems that only Kou Ji can be Zhao Run's husband in Liaodi.
Empress Cao originally thought that Zhao Run would lose a big help if the Cao family left, but did not expect Cao Wei to arrange everything.
Actually found a good gentleman for Zhao Run.
"The concubine wants to take Run'er to see Sibo..."
After knowing everything, Empress Cao hardly hesitated and bowed to please.
Zhao Zhen waved her hand and let her leave.
After Empress Cao left, Zhao Zhen sighed deeply.
Had it not been for Empress Cao and Zhao Run who had forced Cao Wei out of the way, Cao Wei rushed to Yanyun Sixteen States, and established the victory of Yanyun Sixteen States.
I am afraid that Zhao Zhen will not talk so much to Empress Cao in such a pleasant manner.
Queen Cao left not long after.
The three of Lu Yijian hurriedly entered the Shishitang.
Entered the hall, after the salute.
Lu Yijian hurriedly asked, "I heard that the official has given Cao Wei the king?"
Zhao Zhen glanced at Lu Yijian faintly, "The imperial decree has been passed down, and it has also been passed down in Bianjing. Do you still have to hear it?"
Lu Yijian looked embarrassed.
Wang Zeng coughed lightly: "It's fine for the officials to give Cao Wei the title of king. Isn't it a bit wrong to crack the soil and seal the territory to Cao Wei. Isn't the official afraid of raising tigers
"Raise a tiger?"
Zhao Zhen questioned: "Do you think that with my Da Song's current national strength, how long will it take for the tiger from the Cao family to go out to have the strength to compete with my Da Song?"
Wang Zeng looked stunned.
Zhao Zhen continued: "I have six hundred and sixty thousand forbidden troops in the Song Dynasty, and there are countless local soldiers. When the Song Dynasty completely takes back the Liaodi, two more forbidden troops will be added. When the time comes, I will have a forbidden army in the Song Dynasty. The number is seven hundred sixty thousand.
Chen Yaozi is now plotting Qingtang, and I believe Qingtang will soon become the soldier of my great Song Dynasty.
At that time, I might have to set up another imperial army to sit in Qingtang.
The number of our imperial Song Dynasty will inevitably exceed 800,000.
Do you think how long will it take for the Cao family to accumulate 800,000 troops to fight me? "
Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng had no words.
Zhang Zhibai hesitated for a while, and said a fair word, "It will never be possible just by the flow of plea."
There are probably not even 10,000 people on Liuqiu Island.
When the Cao family moved, ten thousand people passed by when they died.
It is almost impossible to accumulate enough troops to counter the 800,000 imperial army of the Great Song Dynasty.
Even if the Cao family worked hard and continued to annex other islands overseas to strengthen themselves, it would take a long, long time before they could barely gain some scale.
After all, the ocean is no better than land.
The islands on the ocean are separated from the islands by the sea. To fight a battle, it takes a long time to fight across the sea, and there are many things to prepare.
Unlike land, as long as there is sufficient food and grass, soldiers and horses can fight past anytime and anywhere.
Even in the case of insufficient food and grass, it can quickly fight over.
There is no need to do much preparation at all.
Therefore, it is far more difficult to expand at sea than on land.
Therefore, after the Cao family moved to Liuqiu, it was impossible to challenge the court for decades or hundreds of years.
Zhao Zhen knocked on the dragon case in front of him, and said, "If this is the case, why should I be afraid of raising tigers? Even if the Cao family wants to become a tiger, it will take three or four generations later.
If I did not seal the Cao family, there would be no way to seal other people.
If there is no way to block other people, this tiger will entangle under our noses.
No one knows when it happened and how much it affected my Da Song. "
Zhao Zhen Shen Sheng's thoughts of entrusting himself to the kings, he told Lu Yijian three people about it, and emphasized the stakes in it.
After the three of Lu Yijian finished listening, they fell into silence.
If Zhao Zhen does not divide the kings, those military ministers who have the power to overpower the master live in the city of Bianjing, and many people in Bianjing will be frightened day and night.
If you want to get it right once and for all, you can only kill them all.
But the problem is that it cannot be killed.
As long as there is a knife, Da Song will definitely be chaotic.
Therefore, entrusting the kings is the only way.
However, the influence of the enfeoffment of kings on the Song Dynasty was too great.
When this matter is spread out, everyone in the Song Dynasty will pay attention to this matter.
People have different minds, and it is hard to guarantee that there will be no other ideas in life.
Although people who have ideas do not necessarily act.
But if the seeds are buried, one day they will grow into towering trees.
This matter will be a great disaster for the later Song Dynasty.
Zhao Zhen saw that the three of Lu Yijian had thoughts in their hearts, but he did not speak any more.
As long as the three of Lu Yijian don't stop him from being king, he doesn't care about the rest.
Not long after the three of Lu Yijian stayed in the Shishitang, the Manchu civil and military had entered the palace, and they all asked to see Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen threw the Manchu civil and military to the three of Lu Yijian, and hid in the harem.
The prime minister.
It is to solve the trouble for him, if it can't solve the trouble, then he is still a prime minister.
The three of Lu Yijian confronted the Manchu civil and military, and they were not easy to deal with.
Can only continue to wrestle with the Manchu civil and military.
The matter of enforcing the king did not stop due to the riots of the Manchu civil and military affairs.
After Empress Cao took the longevity king Zhao Run to visit the Cao Mansion, Cao Wei took the lead and passed the title of Nanhai County King to his brother Cao Qi.
Cao Wei only left an old servant to accompany him, and the rest of the Cao Mansion, Cao Wei let Cao Qi leave Bianjing with him.
Before the people from Cao's Mansion left, they settled with the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The fields, houses, and shops of the Cao Mansion were handed over to the court.
As the first nobleman of the Song Dynasty, Cao's family property is huge and unimaginable.
After the people from the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Internal Affairs counted the family properties of Cao's mansion, and reported the specific figures to the court, the Manchu court was shocked.
There are three houses worth millions of dollars, and 13 other houses worth millions of dollars.
There are more than 200 shops in total, and there are more than 397,800 acres of land.
This is only the Cao family in Bianjing city, the ancestral home of the Cao family in Zhending Mansion, the Cao family's family business is even bigger.
The imperial court has sent officials to count, and I believe it will not take long to report a specific number to the imperial court.
After a brief period of shock, the Civil and Martial Arts of the Manchu dynasty came up with ideas about the homes of the Cao family.
It is a pity that Zhao Zhen only handed over the shop to the Ministry of Households for disposal, and dispatched the upright Zhang Zhibai to supervise him.
With Zhang Zhibai on one side, other people simply can't take advantage of the opportunity.
The residences, other courtyards, and farms that were most intrigued by the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty were brought to the Ministry of Internal Affairs by Zhao Zhen.
The Manchu civil and military also invited Zhao Zhen to this end, threatening that those property should go to the court.
Zhao Zhen's answer is also simple. He will use those houses, other houses, and farms to reward the heroes.
If the national treasury is willing to bear all the rewards needed for the heroes later, he doesn't mind putting those houses, other yards, and fields into the imperial court.
Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng vetoed the matter almost without hesitation.
joke.
Although the wealth of Cao's mansion is amazing, the number of heroes to be rewarded by the court is even more amazing.
If the property of Cao's mansion is used to reward heroes, it is not enough.
If the imperial court agreed to Zhao Zhen's request, he would turn his head back and give a blood.
Just when everyone in the city of Bianjing was discussing the matter of entrusting the king, just when everyone in the city of Bianjing was focusing on the property of Cao's house.
Cao Wei was carried by Zhao Run, Kou Tianci, Yang Huaiyu and others to the Wenchang Academy.
After Yang Wenguang's enlightenment, the knot between Kou Tianci and Yang Huaiyu was unraveled, but people became much more silent than before.
Doing things is safer than before.
Empress Cao assigned Zhao Runfa to Cao Wei and asked him to serve Cao Wei.
Zhao Run could not move Cao Wei alone, so he could only ask Kou Tianci and Yang Huaiyu for help.
After Cao Wei went to the Wenchang Academy, he put on a Confucian costume, and through Zhao Run's mouth, gave the last class to the martial arts students in the Wenchang Academy.
Then returned to his residence.
Kou Zhun and other gentlemen from Wenchang Academy gathered in Cao Wei's house.
Zhao Run, Kou Tianci, Yang Huaiyu and other juniors are also there.
Cao Wei lay on the rocking chair with a smile, mouth by mouth.
The old servant of Cao's Mansion recounted softly from the side, "The general said that he is afraid that he is about to die in Wenchang Academy. At that time, I am afraid that Wenchang Academy, the place blessed by the saint, will be contaminated with some sadness and the breath of warriors.
I hope Chief Kou Shan will not blame it. "
Kou Zhun said with a sad look: "Although the old man is not pleasing to the military officials, it is in the court. Now you and I have resigned from official positions, and the personal relationship is good, how can the old man blame you.
Besides, you are the gentleman of my Wenchang Academy. Sleep here forever, blessing all the students in Wenchang Academy. That's right. "
Cao Wei grinned, lips lightly opened, and said a few more words.
The old servant of the Cao Mansion changed his face. Just as he was about to repeat it, Kou Zhun sighed and said, "The old man knows."
The old servant of Cao Mansion didn't say much.
Cao Wei didn't say much, but instead set his sights on Zhao Run.
Zhao Run felt Cao Wei's gaze and walked closer to Cao Wei.
Cao Wei motioned to the old servant of Cao Mansion to take out a letter from his arms, handed it to Zhao Run, and exhorted Zhao Run.
Retelling by the old servant of Cao Mansion.
"The general asked you to give this letter to your husband, otherwise he might not accept you."
Zhao Run had known through the mouth of Empress Cao that he was going to apprentice Kou Ji, so after hearing Cao Wei's instructions, he nodded solemnly.
Cao Wei smiled, lips lightly opened, and made a sound, "Nowadays Da Song is so good... I really can't bear it..."
When the voice fell, Cao Wei closed his eyes with a smile, and never opened them again.
The eyes of the old servant of Cao's Mansion were red in an instant, and he choked up: "The general is gone..."
Zhao Run stood there stupidly.
Kou Zhun closed his eyes in pain, sighed, bowed and said, "The general is going well..."
"The general goes well..."
"The general goes well..."
"..."
The news soon reached the palace.
Zhao Zhen hurried to Wenchang Academy with Empress Cao.
After Zhao Zhen arrived at the Wenchang Academy, he watched Cao Wei smile and ended up with red eyes.
Zhao Zhen ordered people to set up a mourning hall for Cao Wei in Wenchang Academy.
At the same time, he decreed that the news of Cao Wei's death should be announced to the world and the whole country should mourn.
At the same time, Zhao Zhen also gave Cao Wei a posthumous title.
Wu Mu!
The highest posthumous title a military minister can obtain.
In addition, Zhao Zhen also ordered people from the Ministry of Industry to build a tomb in Gongxian County and give it to Gongxian County.
Why is it said that it is the burial of Gong County
Because that is the place where the mausoleum selected by the Qin Tianjian for Zhao Zhen is located.
Although the emperor’s tomb will no longer be built after the reform of the Song Dynasty, the site of the emperor’s tomb will be determined in advance.
The purpose is to avoid conflicts between the land used by the emperor’s tombs and the land used by the people.
The emperor of the Song Dynasty imperial family has always been very good to the people, whether he is sincere or showcasing. In short, when conflicts with the people, the emperor always chooses to let the people.
It is precisely because of this that the location of the tomb of the emperor must be determined in advance.
When the emperor was building the mausoleum, the people would build houses there and conflict with the people.
The construction of Cao Wei's tomb was quickly completed. On the day of the burial, Zhao Zhen personally went to the funeral.
The bell that was only rang when the emperor, empress dowager, queen, prince, and others died, also rang.
"Boom... boom..."
A dull bell, thick and grand, spread far away.
Seems to see off the general and let the general go well.
It also seems to be telling people in the distance that a general is gone.
"Did you hear the bell?"
On the top of the hill outside the capital of Liao State.
Kou Ji was in a daze when he heard the ringing of bells, and couldn't help but ask Chong Shiheng next to him.
Zhong Shiheng looked at Kou Ji suspiciously for one or two, and then made a posture of listening.
"What bells, nothing?"
Zhong Shiheng listened carefully but heard nothing, and couldn't help but say to Kou Ji.
Kou Ji frowned, "But I obviously heard a bell?"
Zhong Shiheng pouted his lips and said, "It's probably an illusion."
Kou Ji frowned and said nothing.
Zhong Shiheng has important things to discuss with Kou Ji. Seeing that Kou Ji cares about the illusory bell, he couldn't help but said: "Maybe the heavens knew that we were about to destroy the Liao Kingdom, so it sounded the death knell to destroy the Liao Kingdom. ."
Kou Ji sighed and said, "Probably..."
Seeing Kou Ji's approval of his statement, Zhong Shiheng hurriedly said: "The official has appointed Cao Wei the king."
Kou Ji glanced at Zhong Shiheng, "I know... the official's move is a bit inappropriate."
Zhong Shiheng said with some excitement: "There is a fief!"
Kou Ji stared at Zhong Shiheng and said, "So what?"
Zhong Shiheng hurriedly asked, "Do you think I have a chance?"
Others may have objections to Zhao Zhen's entrustment of the king's fiefdom. For example, they are not satisfied with Zhao Zhen's throwing these heroes into the poor country to suffer.
But Zhong Shiheng would never have this idea.
Because Zhao Zhen's approach coincides with his ultimate goal.
When he established Qingjian City in a remote area, he rushed to the Dangzhen vassal.
It's just that Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji joined hands to clean up his purpose before he achieved it.
Now Zhao Zhen took the initiative to let Wuchen be the town vassal, and he was still the kind of powerful and powerful vassal king.
He is naturally minded.
Kou Ji saw Zhong Shiheng's expression of excitement, and said angrily: "You are not afraid that the official will throw you into Yanshan Mansion outside the desert and let you eat sand?"
Zhong Shiheng shook his head decisively and said: "Don't be afraid! I'm afraid that the official won't seal me!"
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said, "If you can't win Liao, you will never have a chance."
Hearing this, Zhong Shiheng said a little arrogantly: "Nearly seventy percent of the elite of my Dasong have gathered here to fight a Liao country where the elite has been lost. If we can't defeat it, then we have no face to go back to the official, let alone. Sealed the king."
Kou Ji snorted: "If you want to be the king, let's take the Liao Kingdom."
Cheong Shiheng said exhilaratingly: "Now the frozen soil has dissolved, the snow has seeped into the soil, and the road is no longer muddy, we can leave.
Gao Chugong and Zhu Neng became wild after learning that the officials had given Cao Wei the title of king.
They are not easy to find you, but they run into my cave.
They are now looking forward to a big victory, and then they can go to the official to ask for a king. "
Wang Jue was too attractive to old guys like Chong Shiheng and Gao Chu Gong.
In the past, the court did not seal the living kings of different surnames, so they did not dare to think about it.
Now the court has set a precedent.
Let them see the opportunity, how could they miss it.
Not to mention them, it was Di Qing and other young generals who looked at Wang Jue.
"Yes, the Liao Kingdom is afraid that it will not survive summer."
Kou Ji couldn't help but sigh.
A group of killing talents, leading the force enough to press Liao to the ground crazy friction, rushed into Liao with red eyes.
In order to fight for merit, to be crowned king, they must sweep the remaining territories of Liao State as quickly as possible.
One winter passed, and Kou Ji was equipped with the firearms that should be equipped in the army.
Seventy percent of the soldiers in the army now have firearms.
Fighting power once again improved.
It is easier to fight the Liaoning Congress.
"Hehehe... you just sit in the tent and write us the merit papers."
Zhong Shiheng heard Kou Ji's words and said with a smile.
Kou Ji glared at Zhong Shiheng, "If I'm stubbornly admonishing, do you think the official will take back the prince who was sealed off."
When Zhong Shiheng heard this, he was taken aback, "Don't! It's all his own, why can't you kill each other?"
Kou Ji said dissatisfied: "Who is your own? I am your Shangguan! That's how you talk to your Shangguan?"
Hearing this, Zhong Shiheng said with a serious face: "Kou Shu's secret words are reasonable, it is that the officials are wrong. When the officials turn around, they write to the people in the mansion and ask them to transfer the money they have earned in recent years. And delivered to your house.
Please also say a few words for the next official in front of the official. "
"Fuck off!"
Kou Ji couldn't help but cursed.
A smile appeared at the corner of Zhong Shiheng's mouth.
Just when Chong Shiheng was about to leave, Chen Lin ran to the top of the mountain out of breath.
Chen Lin's face was covered with fine sweat, obviously she ran a lot.
Seeing this, Kou Ji and Chong Shiheng frowned.
For Chen Lin, his actions like this are already a gaffe.
Chen Lin is a person who rarely gaffes.
He lost his attitude, and something earth-shattering must have happened.
"What happened?"
Not waiting for Chen Lin to approach.
Kou Ji and Chong Shiheng asked questions almost in unison.
Chen Lin cried out sadly, "Cao Wei has gone..."
Kou Ji and Chong Shiheng were shocked at the same time.
Kou Ji sighed, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.
Zhong Shiheng sighed and sighed: "I thought he could survive the fall of the Liao Kingdom, but he didn't expect to go there..."
Kou Ji took a deep breath and slowly said: "The order is passed down, and the condolences are set up, and the army will see off Cao Gong. Three days later, the soldiers sent to the capital to destroy the Liao State, so that Cao can sleep peacefully under the nine springs. "
"Here!"
Zhong Shiheng solemnly agreed, and quickly went down to pass the order.
After Chong Shiheng left, Chen Lin walked to Kou Ji's side and put a letter in Kou Ji's hands.
Kou Ji unfolded the letter, read it carefully and exclaimed: "Wu Mu, he can afford it. It's just..."
