The guards Liu Quan and Zhu Dazi were shocked and quickly dialed out their swords. Zhang Hai was also drawing the sword...

Zheng Lang waved his hand and said, "Liu Quan, Zhu Dazi, don't be nervous, let me say a few words to him."

But Liu Quan and Zhu Dazi did not dare to put down the sword, but Zheng Lang said calmly: "Zhang Hai, I have a fair view of thieves everywhere. Some of them are indeed caused by the government's poor work, or they are hungry and helpless, or some generals are cruelly exploited. But the wise master is wise, if there is any grievance, you can come to the capital to appeal. I'm thinking about this situation. Today, I will spare your lives and surrender to the court after returning to Dengzhou. I can still protect you."

"Then exiled us?" said the young woman, referring to the fact that Wang Lun's subordinates who were captured by Zheng Lang last time were all exiled to the border.

"No, as long as you surrender to the court after you go back, there are not many evils now. Not only will I not exil you, but on the contrary, I heard that you have excellent martial arts skills, I will also protect you as a military general in the court. Those who have martial arts to kill foreign enemies are not their own family members, nor are the court's ministers. In the era when there is a rebellion, I should do it myself, go."

The couple looked at each other, and Zheng Lang’s two guards might not take them seriously, but Zheng Lang said their names, afraid of ambushing them. Moreover, this little husband was elusive and famous. If this little husband was captured, the momentum would naturally be greatly boosted. What if... Looking at each other, the beautiful young woman pulled Zhang Hai’s arm and said, “Let’s go.”

"No hurry, I haven't said anything, and I will surrender when I go back. If I resist, I will not be able to open the door next time."

"Then try it," the young woman shouted, and the two flew from the pleasure boat to the shore like two big birds. Zheng Lang didn't believe in martial arts, nor did he believe in light skills, but looking at the movements of the two couples, his skills were extremely flexible.

The couple were afraid that Zheng Lang would be ambushed, so they quickly left after getting ashore and disappeared into the night.

The night fog rises, the Bian River floats, and from time to time, singing girls on the painting boat next door comes, as if everything that just happened is like a dream.

Liu Quan stroked his chest and said, "Mr. Zheng. How did you know?"

"I just guessed it," Zheng Lang sat on the chair, his body softened, and his body was covered in cold sweat. This time was probably the most serious moment of crisis in his life.

When he left the Fan family, Zheng Lang did not find something wrong, but he was a little suspicious, so he brought two guards. It was not until Zhang Hai and his wife entered the pleasure boat that he realized something was wrong, and he thought of something: Zhang Yanghe, isn’t Yanghe just the sea?

It took a long time until several prostitutes came in that Zheng Lang woke up from his shock and said, "Let's go back."

But this time, he finally angered Zheng Lang.

The next day, Zheng Lang reported the morning court and told the matter. All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked. The thief actually entered the capital alone. This was Zheng Lang, who reacted keenly. If it were others, they would not know how to die last night.

Zhao Zhen was furious and pounded the table with his fist, shouting: "It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!"

It’s better for other ministers. Zheng Lang was Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui five years later. The hope for revitalizing the Song Dynasty. The Khitan regarded Zheng Lang as an enlarged version of Guan Zhong. In Zhao Zhen’s mind, Zheng Lang was no less than this position. Even after ten years of growth, Zheng Lang was more suitable to support the sky of the Song Dynasty than Lu Yijian. If something went wrong last night, thinking of this, he shouted at Li Shu: "Li Qing, how did you manage the security of the capital?"

Li Shu was wronged and had nowhere to shout, how many people were entering and leaving the capital every day? How to check this? If Zhang Hair was a little older and brought a hundred subordinates, he could also use the pedestrians coming and going to the capital to successfully bring it into the capital.

Ouyang Xiu took the opportunity to speak: "Your Majesty, Li Shu is evil and insidious. Your Majesty has known all kinds of signs. Now the ministers outside dare not tell Li Shu's name, but it is really a filthy virtue and ugly thing. Why do outsiders hate him so much? Because Li Shupeng attached to Lu Yijian, and was attracted by Lu Yijian as an elbow, so he has today's status."

The three corpses and five ghosts are extremely vicious. Taoism says that there are three gods that cause trouble in the human body. On Gengshen day, they report to the Emperor of Heaven about human evil. This is called the three corpses, also called the three corpses. The five ghosts refer to the five ghosts who are poor in wisdom, poor in learning, poor in literature, poor in life, poor in friendship, and generally refer to the five people who are in love with each other.

Li Shu was so angry that she almost blew up the smoke, but he couldn't tell her that Ouyang Xiu was a verbal minister and could talk nonsense at the court meeting. He was the prefect of Kaifeng. Once he was diagnosed with the court, he would be demoted immediately.

Ouyang Xiu continued, "I don't know that the court is so clear and clear, what's the use of this person? It was Li Shu who served as the prefect of Kaifeng. Kaifeng's prefecture from the bottom, doing all the dangerous and evil techniques, without doing their jobs, allowing the thief to sneak into the capital without knowing it. If something happened to Zheng Lang yesterday, the court lost a talent and laughed at the world, please make sure that your Majesty must stop this person from the capital to listen to the righteous saint."

Zheng Lang interrupted his endless talk and said, "Ouyang Xiu, is Li Shu right or wrong? Please discuss it after the court meeting. Let me report several major events to Your Majesty."

Not to mention, this talk will continue endlessly, but instead delays Zheng Lang’s important business today.

Fortunately, Ouyang Xiu consciously shut his mouth. The last time Zheng Lang's reform made him very satisfied, so he was like the prime minister. As the prime minister, how could he not do anything? He also made him even more satisfied with Yanchen entering the capital. He has always been very good at Zheng Lang these days.

Zheng Lang said: "I am discussing the reasons for the thieves. First, the thieves are the people. Drought is part of it, but officials are harshly stripped, and the granary that should have food is corrupted by officials, and there is no grain to be released. Second, military thieves are redundant, and the number of imperial guards and foreign soldiers is combined has reached more than 1.3 million. Since the founding of the country, it has never happened. During the reign of Emperor Taizong, more than 600,000 imperial guards have affected the national financial operation. Although the population was not as high as today, the tax revenue was not as high as today. However, many years of wars and years of disasters, how is the situation like when Taizong ruled the country? What can I do if there are too many taxes? During the reign of Emperor Taizong, the commercial tax was only 8 million guan, and by His Majesty, it gradually approached 20 million guan. This is also

It's okay, business is developed and it's reasonable to expand twice as much as it is. But why did it expand to nearly 50 million trump cards after the war, which is more than two taxes? Your Majesty also realized that the tax was too heavy, so he competed to reduce expenditures, including military expenses. However, the army was huge, and once the military expenses were reduced, the treatment of soldiers would inevitably decline. There were also generals at all levels who were severely stripped, and soldiers were not enough to support their families, so mutinies arose and became military thieves. It was far from enough to rectify the army of Shaanxi and the whole country. The country was full of crises, and if there were disasters next year, there would be more military thieves. Please issue an edict that from now on, the whole country will gradually cut off the elderly, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, and suppress the military camps in order to use the surplus military expenses to increase the treatment of soldiers. Otherwise, the country will not be in power."

Not to mention other places, there are a group of "military thieves" in Dengzhou.

Zhao Zhen frowned and said, "The capital will discuss after the court meeting."

This situation finally made Zhao Zhen feel an urgent sense of crisis.

But it is also what Zheng Lang needs, otherwise how could he convince Zhao Zhen to disarmament?

Zheng Lang also said: "Not only are the officials in various places who are cruel or greedy, so that officials force the people to rebel, but also the officials in various prefectures and counties are cowardly, which leads to rampant thieves. Therefore, Zhang Hai's pirates dare to sneak into the capital. He looked at the weak and movements of the country in order to wait for an opportunity to move. For example, Gaoyou Chao Zhongyou asked local wealthy households to reward thieves. Zhang Hai's affairs were not very powerful, with only more than a few dozen people. The state magistrate requested troops to suppress them, but Liu Zhi disagreed, so he sat on the thieves to grow stronger and stronger. However, the court has never dealt with these officials for several months. What is your intention? Does Your Majesty also want to indulge thieves?"

"Zheng Qing, what do you think will be dealt with?" Zhao Zhen asked.

This time he was also very angry. He finally felt cruel in treating officials.

"If you don't have great achievements in exile in Lingnan, you will never be used. This is a warning. In fact, it has been handled with great care. Otherwise, you will be willing to entertain thieves and cooperate with conspiracy to rebel, and the law should be punished."

"Your Majesty, I also think these officials should be punished, otherwise officials from all over the country would not be enough to be a police officer." Ouyang Xiu was in a state of spirit and stood up again and said.

"Follow Zheng Qing and Ouyang Qing, we will first punish Chao Zhong for an appointment. Then we will send someone to ask whether Liu Zhi indulged the thieves. If so, we should deal with it more seriously." Zhao Zhen said. He could understand Zheng Lang's mood. Since entering the Secretariat, Zheng Lang had not said that he would deal with the minister.

Zheng Lang said again: "The thieves are already in great power. I am afraid that Cao Yuanjie and Zhang Hong's two squads will not be wiped out. The court should be prepared to recruit Di Qing to Beijing in order to prevent any accidents. I will then order Han Qi to dispatch troops and generals in Shaanxi to cooperate with the court to suppress the bandits. If the thief is strong and immortal, I will ask Your Majesty and I will go to suppress them in person."

"Zheng Qing, no, Fan Yong is in charge of Xijing. Some thieves. If Cao and Zhang are unable to be wiped out, I will let Fan Yong go to suppress them, and the thieves will be destroyed."

"Your Majesty, Fan Yong is quite capable of governing the government and is also a loyal and honest elder. But Fan Yong really doesn't understand military affairs. If the court sent Fan Yong, I am afraid that I will mislead the matter. Although the thieves will be destroyed, one month earlier and one month later will have completely different effects. In one month, how many officers and soldiers will be killed, how many people will harm, and how much military money will be wasted? Please think twice. A few days ago, I told the Khitan envoy that you should act as a lion, and that you must also be like this for thieves. The thieves are already powerful, and I don't know how many thousands of people will be there. Therefore, I not only went there personally, but also asked Your Majesty to transfer Di Qing to the capital to cooperate with me. Please think twice."

Fan Yong suppressed the thieves, but he used tens of thousands of troops to work for nearly three months, and finally he used Han Qi to cooperate to kill the thieves. This old master cannot lead troops.

But Zheng Lang's words had two other intentions, calling Di Qing came not only to suppress Guo Miaoshan and Zhang Hai, but also to prepare for Guiyang Man. Guiyang could not let Yang Qi go. Even if Yang Qi went, Di Qing would have to cooperate, otherwise the south would be decayed for a longer time.

However, the main goal is not to get angry, but to get angry is part of it. The more important reason is that not long after, Fan Zhongyan launched the Qingli New Deal. What should he do when he stayed in the capital?

Zhao Zhen was silent for a while and said, "Absolutely, Li Qing, you will lead the yamen runners immediately to capture these two thieves."

"Here," Li Shu replied with a bitter face.

At this time, most of the couple had escaped from the capital, and even if they were in the capital, where would they be arrested? Ouyang Xiu was so angry that he bit his teeth. But from today, he was asking for it. The Song Dynasty was originally named Song Jiao, and he secretly told Zhao Zhen that Song and the country were surnamed, but those who were friends were not Shanying (the Song Dynasty handed over to others). Zhao Zhen was clear in his heart, so he asked the Song Dynasty to change its name to Song Xiang, not to hand over the Song Dynasty, but to protect the Song Dynasty. Five years after Ouyang Xiu impeached him, he had no memory and made Xiao Song. Zhao Zhen appointed Zhang Meimei as the imperial concubine, and according to the rules, he had to send an edict to the concubine, and the concubine himself

If you give up, you will be exempted from the etiquette of enthronement, which means that the concubine does not want to be a concubine. Normally, you will write the book first, read it with the door, and then the Bachelor's College will write the book, hand it over to the Secretariat, and the three provinces will be given the title of official title, and the official imperial court will be stamped, and finally presented it to the inner court. Only then will the process of enthronement of concubines be completed. It was Xiao Song's turn to write the book, and after writing it, Xiao Song didn't know much about the title of concubines, so he asked Li Shu, and Li Shu said, "Let's send it up quickly, without hesitation." So Xiao Song really delivered the book to Zhang Meimei. Zhang Meimei was furious and threw the book to the ground angrily. Xiao Song was sad.

In fact, this bad character also caused Li Shuyi's life to be bumpy. He was talented and capable of governing the government, but he was therefore ups and downs and never corrected. There were many similar cases. Even Zheng Lang and him were careful when they were inquiring about the imperial guards, so as not to be cheated by him.

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he shouted angrily: "Sanchao."

This country is increasingly disappointing him...
