The Light, The Sword

Chapter 26: dawn

Views:

The wind was blowing and raining, whirring through the garden, but the atmosphere in the study of Xiangfu was somewhat frozen.

Qin Xi looked at Goulong Ruyuan, and his heart was fluctuating for a while.

What he said just now was a temporary inspiration, and he deliberately said the opposite, implicitly testing the meaning of this Goulong Ruyuan. Unexpectedly, the newly appointed Yushi Zhongcheng really didn't have the intention of paying attention to his right-handed foster father, so he unscrupulously stated his true intentions to prevent Tiao Chen's implementation.

Since Nandu, his adoptive father established a peace agreement, and he hit it off with the current emperor official who only wants to preserve half of the world in the south of the Yangtze River. From then on, the two prime ministers Zhang Jun and Zhao Ding, who were originally fighting and defending, have been expelled. After leaving the court, he formed a situation where his adoptive father had been dominant for more than ten years.

It is precisely because of this that the scholars who had long been accustomed to splitting into two factions in the original court had no force in the court for more than ten years to fight against their foster father. The scholars in the hall have gradually become acquainted with what the righteous father meant. The head of the horse is to look forward. As the peace talks became the state of the Song Dynasty, the righteous father naturally became the scholar of the world. The model and representative of

In the Song Dynasty, scholars were the roots of hundreds of officials in the imperial court. In the hands of themselves and their adoptive fathers, they have always paid attention to the actions of those scholars who are well-known among scholars.

According to the clues they have, the Goulong Ruyuan in front of him deeply recognizes the policy of advocating literature and suppressing martial arts since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, so he chose without hesitation in the struggle between his adoptive father and the military commander system represented by Yue Fei. To stand on the side of his foster father.

What's more, this Goulong Ruyuan has always regarded it as his own duty to maintain a country where scholars and kings rule the world together. For this reason, he even put forward the theory of "virtual emperor and reality", which has a lot of influence among scholars. Big, it fits the stomach and stomach of his foster father.

It is precisely because of this that his adoptive father will use all kinds of relationships to make him fill the position of Yushi Zhongcheng that was vacated because of Wan Chengmao's conviction.

Unexpectedly, this new job Goulong Ruyuan, as soon as they met, his opinions would go against him and his foster father.

It seems that this person is using the wrong one!

Yushi Zhongcheng, who is in charge of the world and admonishes Qingliu, his opinions have always had a great influence on the direction of the court.

Therefore, the prime minister has always been able to recommend the appointment of a hundred officials, but he alone has no room for comment on the post of Yushi Zhongcheng.

Let such a self-talking person sit in the position of Yushi Zhongcheng, and I am afraid that what will be annoying in the future is more than just the one in front of him.

What's more, Goulong Ruyuan is not the shameless Wan Qiang who is secretly despised by scholars in the world.

He is a generation of masters in charge of the orthodox school of modern Luoxue, deep in the hope of the world's scholars.

trouble!

He deliberately frowned: "The talents of Goulong are knowledgeable and unparalleled in the world. It is just that Goulong has just praised Wang Jinggong's new law, and the purpose of the two new donations is in the same line as Wang Jinggong. As soon as Lord Long turned his head, he strongly recommended to block the implementation of these two donations. Such a favored one and a weaker one made Qin Xi unable to understand."

Goulong Ruyuan was not answering his question. He just smiled slightly: "I am not lawful in the Han and Tang dynasties, and the ancient three dynasties. Yao Chan, the world gave Shun, Shun Chan, the world gave Yu, the world is governed by the world, and the weather is smooth. A model for all generations. However, in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, King Yan wanted to imitate the ancestors, and Zen was located in his son, but it caused great chaos in the world and even the ruin of the country. The same approach, but a different ending, Master Qin thought this what is the reason?"

There was a suffocating silence in the study.

Qin Xi couldn't help his face changing slightly.

Although he knew that Goulong Ruyuan would never see through the plot of his adoptive father, otherwise he would not be able to talk about the matter face to face with such ease.

But this issue is too sensitive.

Even with his cultivation, he couldn't help being speechless for a while.

"Hahahaha..." Qin Hui shook his palm with a long smile, breaking the silence in the study.

He stepped forward and pressed Goulong Ruyuan's shoulder affectionately: "Okay! Okay! The old man really didn't misunderstand the person! As Ruyuan is in the court, the old man can take care of his life with peace of mind!"

He didn't wait for Goulong Ruyuan to speak, he turned to Qin Xi and asked faintly: "Xi'er, don't you understand what Ruyuan means."

Qin Xi coughed dryly, and then he came back to his senses: "Boy understands that Lord Goulong is afraid of others to do it, and the good law will also become the evil law!"

Goulong Ruyuan focused his gaze on Qin Hui, as if he wanted to read something from his face, but he still saw Qin Hui's look in his eyes that seemed to be full of earnestness.

He frowned slightly and nodded and said, "Master Qin is right. With the sages of the former king Jing Gong, the new law will inevitably become a tool for some people to torture and take advantage of the opportunity to earn money. What's more, two more donations have been proposed this time. Daren Bao, born as an actor, is really a gentle scum, if you let him..."

A smile appeared on Qin Hui's face, and he raised his hand to stop Goulong Ruyuan's words.

"Ruyuan is very reasonable, and it coincides with what the old man has seen."

"It's a pity," Qin Hui sighed slightly: "Ruyuan came to the wrong place!"

He looked at Gou Long Ruyuan's frowning brows, and smiled softly: "Fang Jin's emperor's official is fighting hard. Although the old man has the title of staying in Lin'an with the same knowledge, he is actually just a body to be sinned. "

He seemed to think carefully for a long while, and his face suddenly showed a resolute look: "But if you eat the monarch’s salary for a day, you should bear the emperor’s worries for a day. The old man will try his best to mediate on this matter, but at this time If you want to make these two donations impossible, I am afraid that only one person can do it."

Goulong Ruyuan pondered slightly, "Qin Xiang meant Yue Fei?"

Qin Hui slowly shook his head and looked at Goulong Ruyuan, with a smile in his eyes and said: "The old man is not talking about Yue Fei, it's you!"

……

"Drink!" Zhao Kuangyin controlled the reins with his hand. With a burst of force, a war horse that was escaping from the right side stood up, and returned to the group of horses that were running fast. However, Zhao Kuangyin's body shape has changed again. Floating again.

In the deep dark night, he was like a black lightning, drifting horizontally and horizontally among the horses with hundreds of horses on the front and back, constantly adjusting the direction of some horses that had deviated from the route, and his figure changed and changed, and he seemed to be awkward. Insubstantial ghosts are general.

With the sound of hooves rolling, he was alone, controlling hundreds of war horses, straight to the direction of Shunchang City.

The other death squad fighters who followed him have also learned their own ways. Everyone has unfolded the limits of their own physical skills, crossing the horses from left to right, driving and adjusting the maximum number of horses that can be controlled by their own ability. , Following behind Zhao Kuangyin.

The vanguard of the Golden Man had been killed and wounded under the chaos and massacre that night, but how could Zhao Kuangyin let the fifteen thousand riders of such a high-quality horse be spared.

Since several horse-producing areas have been segregated by ethnic minorities, Dasong has been short of horses, not to mention that not all horses can become war horses. The "pull back" level alone will eliminate most of the horses. Therefore, it has been difficult to cultivate a large-scale cavalry in the Song Army.

It was not until the Song Dynasty went south that the four generals of ZTE, including Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, gathered and defeated the captured horses in the field battle with the Jinren. In key battles such as Guan and Monk Yuan, this cavalry was like a sharp bladed knife, rushing to and fro, making the gold men frightened.

Unfortunately, after Yue Fei was recalled, this cavalry team with the most combat effectiveness since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty was dismantled abruptly in this way. It has been sparsely trained for several years, and it is also difficult to feed. Most of the horses have long been degraded. Exhausted, no longer unbearable to use.

Zhao Kuangyin has always planned to reorganize a cavalry team, but he has always been a headache about the source of horses. What's more, even if there are many good horses, it is not something that can be done overnight to train as a war horse.

Therefore, he would never let go of the great horse horse, which had been selected by thousands of horses among the tens of thousands of horses that had been riding in the world.

Leaping over the slacking horses, the swift wind brought the torrential rain, and the scratches were painful. Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but have the urge to scream for a long time.

Although he has been on the battlefield for decades and has superb riding skills, he has never done so with one person to control a horse team with hundreds of horses.

Naturally, this is also because these horses specially used by the "Iron Futu" troops have been trained for a long time. As long as the leading horse ran in one direction, most of the horses behind would follow afterwards, and introspect many things.

And those horses are connected by hooks every three rides, and the number of horses that he can control has virtually increased by three times.

But in spite of this, in this dark night, he wanted to control this galloping horse team with a radius of several miles, because of Zhao Kuangyin's skill, he could not help but sweat on his forehead.

In the circle of this horse team, as long as there is a slight error in the jump and dodge, and the horse falls by mistake, even if the effort is high and strong, it will inevitably be trampled on by thousands of horses.

He exhaled and let out a voice, and the voice came far into the ears of everyone who followed him: "Brothers, if you can't control the horse, don't force it."

"To me, the life of any one of you is ten times more precious than 11 million of the best horses!"

"Yes!"

"General, rest assured!"

Everyone suddenly promised, but it was everyone's body shape, but it was a bit faster.

Although most of them only knew that the man in front of him, who was walking flat on the back of hundreds of horses and leaping like a dragon, was a newcomer to the army monitor, they didn't know that he was the current emperor official.

But this is enough.

Since there are generals who are not afraid of death, they can bring out soldiers who are not afraid of death.

The hero of the Great Song Dynasty, who has put life and death in his eyes!

Liu Dashun laughed and laughed: "The Jurchen Barbarian has worked so hard to give us this gift, how can we not honor this face?"

"Hahahaha..."

Everyone laughed loudly, with the wind and rain all over, leaving the roar and killing in the golden army camp far away to the dark night behind them.

……

"Me?" Rao was dumbfounded for a moment with the cultivation of Goulongruyuan.

He has been educated as a senior scholar since he was a child, and his responsibility is to govern the country and the world. Although he has just entered officialdom, he is by no means a person who knows nothing about the affairs of the government.

It is precisely because of this that after carefully considering Bao Daren's terms, he hurriedly came to meet Qin Hui.

Although Yue Fei was nominally staying in Lin'an, and Qin Hui was only acting as the second assistant to know Lin'an staying behind, but in fact, everyone knows that in Lin'an, if anything is really done, Qin Hui's nod is bound to be indispensable.

After all, Qin Hui has been in the country for more than ten years, and most of the ministers in the court are from his sect, although since today's Ziguan family rescued Yue Fei from the storm pavilion, there are quite a few ministers in the court who are good at looking at appearances. People, there have been some subtle changes in Qin Hui's attitude. However, when the Ziguan family is not in the court today, Qin Hui still has absolute influence on the affairs of courtiers.

On the contrary, it was Yue Fei, who started his career with military exploits. There is no foundation in Lin'an City. If you want to implement this Chen, you can rely on only the Bao Daren who made this idea for him.

This is exactly what he worries about most.

Bao Daren's impassioned statement at the court meeting that reversed Yue Fei's case had already been circulated among the court ministers, and he had basically heard of it.

Emotionally speaking, he was also quite able to appreciate Yue Fei's feelings, so he didn't feel bad for Bao Daren.

However, he has always felt almost intuitively that there are too many unsolvable mysteries in this Bao Daren, and this person is by no means as simple as his usual performance.

Especially after carefully studying Bao Daren's articles, he became firmer in his thoughts.

He has been obsessed with learning since he was a child, and his ambitions are to help the monarch and rule the world, but he is absolutely different from the circumstantial master who only knows how to talk about his heart. And research.

It is precisely because of this that what he reads in Bao Daren's statement is a bit deeper than anyone else.

The problem of the Song Dynasty was the increasingly prosperous commercial trade, which brought about profound changes in the entire society. This is indeed a situation that has never been encountered by any dynasty or generation since the ages.

The traditional ancestral family method is increasingly stretched and flawed in the face of dramatic changes in reality, but no one can say clearly whether each change will really make the world better or the entire Song Dynasty. Sink.

Bao Daren's business profit donation and Dingkou income donation are really a very interesting experiment.

Therefore, he is very clear that whether it is a trial in Lin'an or a wide spread in the world, these can never be just two temporary measures issued to raise military supplies.

With his insight, he can see at a glance that if these two donations are implemented smoothly, and if the power of the country is used to redistribute the huge profits brought by commercial trade among the people in the world, a relatively fair redistribution will be made. Therefore, what it affected was not just the war on the north bank of the big river, but the entire Song Dynasty, and even the future generations.

It is also for this reason that he can't even implement the donation policy without careful consideration and consideration when the emperor official is not in the court; he is even more worried that such a major reform will be handed over to Bao Daren. Let him do it for people who can't see the purpose.

After all, things on paper are often very different from actual implementation.

In the past, Wang Jinggong's reform was not the result of the wisdom of most scholars in the world, and Wang Jinggong himself was a sage who didn't think of his own profit in the least. Even his opponent can never deny this.

However, Wang Jinggong’s vigorous reform did not fundamentally solve the problems of the Song dynasty. On the contrary, the scholars in the world split into the old and the new parties, and they used all the emotions originally used in state affairs for each other. The controversy and the party condemned the differences, causing great damage to the court, and the rest of the calamity, even today, the Song Dynasty court still suffers from it.

This is a move concerning the destiny of millions of people in the world.

Now if there is another carelessness, the Song Dynasty will probably be overwhelmed.

The court is in danger, and everyone is responsible. Don't say that at this time, he himself is the chief admonisher of Taiwan, and he is an ordinary commoner. He has to desperately write to the letter, guilty of straight admonitions, and do his best to prevent this from happening.

Therefore, after he heard Qin Hui's obvious evasive remarks, he was already ready to meet Yue Fei in person and fight for reasons.

Unexpectedly, Qin Hui would give such an unexpected answer.

Qin Hui greeted his puzzled gaze and smiled softly: "Yue Fei was born in the army. He has always known only military affairs, but not government affairs. At this moment, he is staying in Lin'an and is in charge of the important tasks of the military and the state. Not to mention more than ten years. Come, he is always thinking about how to raise a strong team and win the battle against the golden man. Therefore, at this moment, he must only consider the victory and defeat at that moment and place, and it will never be possible to listen to you. So! So unless the emperor's official family returns to Luan, I'm afraid that no one can stop Yue Fei from going his own way!"

"It's just..." A smile hung from the corner of Qin Hui's mouth: "Ruyuan didn't say anything, no matter how good the plan is, after all, someone will implement it, isn't it?"

Goulong Ruyuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Qin Xiang means..."

Qin Hui smiled and nodded: "That's right! As the leader of Yuan Yuan admonishes Qingliu, the world's scholars are praised and criticized, do your best, as long as you climb high..."

His eyes were cold: "The old man doesn't believe that there is any shameless scholar who dares to help Yue Fei do this!"

Gou Long Ruyuan was silent for a long while, but he already understood in his heart what kind of idea this great Song Quanxiang was making.

He obviously couldn't agree to any measures taken by Yue Fei and Bao Daren, but he had to let himself say the reason for his opposition.

Moreover, you have to push yourself to the cusp of the storm and let yourself come forward.

In this way, if there is a discrepancy, it is only his own rootless and bottomless Yu Shi Zhongcheng who will destroy himself, and he will definitely not implicate the great Song Dynasty Prime Minister in front of him. .

It's just that this matter is due to the great Song Dynasty's national fortune. Since he is in this position, how can he be unreasonable

Perhaps this Qin Xiang is also seeing this point in his own right.

Goulong Ruyuan sighed softly and looked at Qin Hui: "Student, I understand!"
