7. Northwest Camp Field Envoy
At this time, Jia Dan stepped forward and suggested to the emperor tacitly:
Since after the Huating Victory, our Tang Dynasty has established the foundation for Jingyuan and Fenglong, so don’t delay any more and continue to build large-scale farming!
There are also Dangxiang and Fanluo who killed each other and wanted to issue an edict to protect the country and the governors of each army. It would be bad if they were killed in the Tang people.
"Aren't you sending an envoy to mediate the order?" the emperor asked.
At this time, Li Mi and others suddenly realized, and even said that of course, they were going to send someone to comfort him.
"Let Dou Shen choose a few censors with quick eyes and ears in the imperial palace, give them red clothes, and escort the envoys of Fanluo, and go to Xuanfu in various ways." The emperor issued an order.
The so-called "eye and ears" actually means going to various departments of the Party and Xiang to spy on and collect intelligence.
The masters took the pen and recorded what the emperor said on the tablet. Li Mi said at this time that he said that the five suggestions that Gao Yue had submitted earlier were not known whether Your Majesty thought were appropriate.
Of course the emperor had no objection, and said that Gao Yue's argument was very convincing and was deeply loved by my heart.
Seeing this, Li Mi took the opportunity to make a comment: Originally, the Uighurs' horses were driven away from Zhenwu City to Xiasuiyin, and then arrived at the capital through Weibei. Now the various parties and Xiangfan landed in Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Xiazhou, which was a great threat to the safety of the commercial route. I believe that Lingwu is a famous city on the frontier, and that many Uighurs and Hushangs trade each other at this point. The commercial route of the city can be changed to Lingwu-Yuzhou-Jingzhou-Bining-Beijing-Shixing-Beijing.
"When it comes to this, Gao Yue once told me that when Lingwu arrived in Xiaoguan, Yuanzhou, the middle road was more than 700 miles away, and if the boat was converted into water transportation, it would cost a lot of money, and the food obtained from the fertile soil of Lingwu's military farmland was transported to enrich the soldiers from the northwest and capital, which was short of the people and officials (1)." The emperor remembered the previous summoning with Gao Yue.
Li Mi and Jia Dan said that the water flows along the Lingwu coast is smooth and suitable for water transportation. The Western Fans had previously taken this road. As long as they built a large number of Gang ships, they entered the Yellow River along Yuanzhou Hulu River (Weiruchuan), and reached Lingwu City, they could carry food and return with their horses. Of course, Uighur merchants could also use this to transport goods to the capital to sell. When they went there, the Gang ship could also transport silk, hemp clothes and utensils that the Lingwu soldiers and the people were short of. This would not only greatly reduce the burden of land transportation, but also ensure the prosperity of the trade routes, but also maintain contact with the towns in Beiting, Anxi, which were isolated outside.
Because of this era, Longyou and Hexi were occupied by Xifan, and the Silk Road was blocked. Most of the merchants in the west changed to the Uighur land and entered the Tang Dynasty from Lingwu City. This was also the envoys of Guo Xin, who had previously guarded Anxi alone.
The emperor asked, "Why should the work of building ships to transport water transportation in Shuofang be the commander of the six cities in Shuofang?"
Li Mi immediately said that although this matter involves Lingwu City, shipbuilding still has to be done in Yuanzhou.
"Will you be the head of Jia Gong (Jia Dan is now the deputy marshal of Longyou)?" The emperor said this intentionally, and then he asked Jia Dan, "How about I send you to the Northwest Yingtian Ambassador and Jingyuan Water Transportation Envoy?
Jia Dan was very humble and said that as the chief magistrate, my most important responsibility was to command all officials, assist the emperor, discuss the country's status, and stay in the capital. The specific work was still done by the actual person in charge of the local government.
"Then I will let Gao Yue be the Northwest Field Envoy, Jingyuan Water Transportation Envoy, and the coin minting envoy." The emperor made this natural decision.
Although the entire Jingyuan is designated as a military town of Shence Camp, Liu Haibin and Xing Junya are all military men. Of course, Gao Yue has to carry the burden of such a thing.
Li Mi and Jia Dan were neither opposed, saying that this would also allow Gao Yue to train his experience in canal transportation.
Liu Congyi next to him couldn't help but laugh and cry. Such an important mission was just for Gao Yue to practice. How much did the emperor and the Secretariat of the Secretariat dodge this senior year? It is now the water transportation of Tongyuanzhou and Lingwu. It seems that Gao Yue will be in charge of the great transportation of the canal and even the benefits of the world.
No wonder Liu Yan and Han Huan, the former ones, both regarded Gao Yue as their successors.
"I don't accept it!"
Of course, Liu Congyi did not dare to say this.
However, when arranging the deputy of the water transport commander, the emperor had a strange look on his face.
Jia Dan recommended Wang Shao as Gao Yue's deputy envoy, because Wang Shao had previously transferred money to Fengtian for Fengtian on Shangjin Road, and received strong recommendation from Yan Zhenqing, the emperor had no objection to this.
At the same time, the censor Wan Qi, who was originally transferred to the Shangjin Daojian, was also sent to be the magistrate of the Water Transport Academy, with the title of the Sixth-rank Attorney Censor.
The new water transportation patrol was located at the mouth of the Weiruchuan injected into the Yellow River. Of course, the emperor also agreed to build a city here, that is, Feng'an Military City - the autumn defense of the towns in Guandong. After Li Mi established the Ministry of Revenue, the imperial treasury was indeed full of a lot. Now, the land in the northwest is built, and the city construction has financial support.
Just when several prime ministers believed that the candidates were stable and that this matter could be implemented in detail, the emperor hesitated and said that he should use more officials to "realize the border" and that he should give people a chance to serve again.
Li Mi understood as soon as he heard this, and the emperor wanted to take advantage of loopholes for his "true love" Lu Qi.
The man who had resisted the pressure and reactivated Bai Zhizhen as the Zhejiang East-West Observer and Zhenhai Army Governor, based on the assassinated Prime Minister Han Huan's "remaining order". Now he is preparing to use Lu Qi.
"What Your Majesty thinks is Shi Lu Ziliang, the governor of Ji Gil?" Li Mi asked himself.
The emperor was stammering and could only admit it, saying that I wanted to give Lu Qi a chance to atone for his sins, so that Wang Shao could be Gao Yue's deputy envoy for water transportation, and Lu Qi would be Gao Yue's deputy envoy for field camps. How about it?
"How could the reason why the former prime minister was now the deputy envoy of the camp? "Li Mi and several other prime ministers spoke in unison, and then cited the example of Jiang Gongfu. The person who had been dismissed from prime minister is still the right prince of the crown prince, and he met Leng Yilan in the capital!
The emperor was very heartbroken, but now he spoke a lot more confident than before because of the victory in Huating. He was a little angry and said that I used Lu Qi because Lu Qi had experience in governance and did not use Jiang Gongfu, because Jiang Gongfu was just a minister.
At this time, Zheng Zhi, a Hanlin scholar who was accompanying the hall, looked even more sad.
The emperor did not expect that these words hurt Zheng Xi's heart, but continued to insist on reusing Lu Qi, and stalemate with the priests.
It was Li Migui, so he said to the emperor: "If Your Majesty really misses Lu Ziliang, it is better to use his son. Lu Qi had a son named Yuanfu, and was named Yu Shilin in the Qing Dynasty. He had a family tradition in the Lu family and was taking the exam in the capital.
This is said very well. Lu Qi is a treacherous prime minister, sorry for his grandfather Lu Huaishen and his father Lu Yi, who died for the court during the Anshi Rebellion. He is simply an alien of the gene mutation of the Lu family. However, his son is probably inherited from generation to generation and has a very good character. Your Majesty, if you want to have a good reputation, you might as well use Lu Qi's son Yuan Fu to operate and make Yuan Fu a Jinshi this year.
"Okay, okay, I won't ask about the affairs of the Ministry of Rites. Please ask the ministers to inquire (operation)." At this time, the emperor had no choice but to accept Li Mi's suggestion, which was considered to be a calmer.
After nightfall, Emperor Li Shi was still reading various memorials in Zichen Hall.
Suddenly, Zheng Zhi, who was sitting next to him, burst into tears and bowed to the emperor. The emperor was shocked and asked why civilization was?
"I hope to be discharged from the hospital, to be loyal to Your Majesty, to go on a mission to Yunnan, to turn Yunnan away from Xifan, and to be my Tang vassal." Zheng Zhi gritted his teeth, mustered up the courage to make this decision.
