Four hundred and ninetieth chapters superstition is good
"Ouyang Zhijian, we Xixia have no meaning... Zhang Yanshou said.
"Yes, not only do you want to - tens of millions, but you also want to covet the Guanzhong and Hedong of our Song Dynasty... is what you Xixia want. Do you know what a minister is?"
"have no idea.
"It seems that I have to teach you the Book of Rites - "Etiquette" - "Zhou Li"..."
Bao Zheng, who was sitting next to him, also made Ouyang Xiulei's deputy. With Ouyang Xiu's current talent and his ability to turn black and white into black and white, point a deer as a horse, and to describe ants as an elephant, Zhang Yanshou...
When it arrived in the capital, Zhao Zhen was stunned at first, then laughed, and then worried. He sent someone to call Zheng Lang into the inner palace and asked: "Zheng Qing, have you heard of Ouyang Xiu in Luoyang?"
"I have heard of it some."
"What am I worried about?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry. If it weren't for the family rules of our ancestors' emphasis on internal governance, our soldiers would not be as weak as they were on the battlefield..." Zheng Lang said this for a reason. Several wars of varying sizes occurred between the Khitan and the Western Xia were all at a disadvantage, but the Western Xia fought against Tubo and the Western Xia were at a disadvantage. However, the battle between the Song Dynasty and the Tubo-Xixia won more and the battle was less. Gao Qiu's defeat of the Khitan and Emperor Taizong of Song Gaolianghe was caused by the long battle and the soldiers were tired of war. Overall, if the dispatch was properly done, the Song army would not be very weak.
He quickly passed by, and the Dan said that the civil war could not be emphasized, and the controversy caused a lot of controversy, and continued: "The Xixia was very miserable after the defeat in Dingchuan Village. They wanted to recover their vitality. The Khitan did not take action next year, and the next year, they would definitely take action to attack Xixia."
“—Is it sure?”
"—Ding, Lu Ling has already brought some news. I originally thought that the Khitans would take action next year, but the Khitans have declined. If they want to conquer the Western Xia, they must mobilize more than 100,000 troops, which requires weapons, materials and logistics supply."
Zhao Zhen's head now. He knew the most about war and could understand better why Liu Bang named Xiao He as the leader of the three heroes of the Western Han Dynasty. Of course, with the various redundant periods of the Song Dynasty, the waste of launching wars was even greater, far exceeding that of the Han and Tang Dynasties.
"The Khitan all over the country despised Xixia, but the Khitan had already declined and was expected to be far away from the ministers. Judging from all the signs, the calculation of the ministers had been overthrown, and it is possible that the time would be delayed."
"You are already good." Zhao Zhen smiled. He could think of everything so long, it was a man, not a god.
"I got the news, and Yuanhao. He still had buffering time. Although he lacked the benefits of green salt, I was afraid that he would completely turn to the Khitan and deliberately did not close the Weizhou city. So my court continued to send some materials to Xixia, giving Xixia a meager vitality. He could hold on, but it would not last long. At most, next year, if my court did not agree to peace talks, he would try every means to force us to peace talks."
"You said if the Khitan starts a war with our dynasty, who will win or lose?"
"It's hard to say. It depends on who occupies morality, the command ability of the general, the situation in the country, and the Xixia. Xixia is ultimately a future. If there were no Xixia, the Khitans would fight against our dynasty at this time and would at most invade Hebei and would not bring back the merits. But if our dynasty is prepared properly, rest and rest, and there will be another ten years of peaceful development. If the general and commander are selected properly and fully prepared, it is not a dream to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun."
"Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun..."
"What else? The Han and Tang dynasties expanded their territory to Xiaohai. Our dynasty was just recapturing the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. This is a shame for Emperor Taizong. As a descendant, if he doesn't want to Xuezhi, he will be an unworthy descendant."
"yes"
This is Zheng Lang!
——bit by bit, mobilize Zhao Zhen’s enthusiasm, otherwise the Qingli New Deal he encouraged to initiate would fail, take the lead in decadence, and the whole country would be bleak. Although the reforms in a broken way created the best time in the Northern Song Dynasty, they left many serious disadvantages for those who came to the latecomers.
"The specific ministers have not thought about it yet, and cannot promote it. If the Khitan feels the strong hostility of our dynasty, they will join forces with Xixia."
"Zheng Qing's words are good." Zhao Zhen's more and more pleasing to Zheng Lang. Although he was young, he already had the kind of mature experience of Lu Yijian. At this time, Zhao Zhen cooperated with Zheng Lang and did not rush to push him to the front. It was not that he did not trust, but that was a kind of protection.
"When I go to Khitan in a few years, I will also pay attention to it."
"I'm very worried."
"It's okay, - it's the Khitan who still wants to covet the annual tribute of our dynasty. Second, the Khitan wants to use me as a person. The minister is not a regular person. It's not necessary to learn from Su Wu forcibly contradict the Khitan monarch and ministers. As long as the ministers do not have a head-on conflict with them, they will not kill the ministers and will not imprison the ministers. People are long-lasting. It's not easy to leave the Khitan? It's still early, and there's time to prepare."
"Say to me what I want."
"That's right, and I am Your Majesty's minister. Wouldn't Your Majesty help me?"
Zhao Zhen couldn't help but laugh.
"The north starts to fall in large-scale snow, and the drought will inevitably ease next year. There will be no large-scale war. Our dynasty will recover earlier than Xixia. One rises and the other goes down. Yuan Hao is not a lunatic. The more he does this, the less he dares to launch an invasion again."
This time the snow fell, it was also fun. The Hedong earthquake had a small magnitude, magnitude 5, magnitude 6, magnitude 6, magnitude 7, and several people died, and not many people were affected. Then the red snow fell in Hebei. What is red snow? Because of the severe drought in recent years, the air was dry and the sky was filled with a lot of dust. The snow was mixed with some dust. After falling on the ground, the snow passed by the clear sky and the sun shone, it looked like the snow was red and yellow.
The natural celestial phenomena were different from the officials' mouths. Sun Fu wrote a letter saying that Chixue and Chixiao are also called wars and fires, and the sign of soothing monarchs. Soothing is a good saying, that is, the king's deputy mediocre. Therefore, political affairs are relaxed, rewards and punishments are poor, and officials are abolished, and the chaos is summoned to the mouth of the great chaos. Emperor Taikang of Jin was lazy in political affairs and feasted in the harem, so he recruited Chixiao, which eventually led to the chaos of Jin. The earthquake was the prosperity of Yin. In the six or seven years of the Xinzhou earthquake, every time it was trembling, there was a sound like thunder. In the last 2008 earthquakes, there were earthquakes in the previous generations. Only Emperor Gaozong of Tang was granted the title of Gan Jin, and after he ascended the throne, Jinzhou was quarreled for years. I don't say it below, I understand, there is Wu Zetian.
Seeing Jingfu Inner Treasury, the ancestors accumulated funds for extraordinary purposes. In recent years, many of the goods and silk from all over the country entered the inner Treasury, and both Chinese and foreigners suspected that the private expenses in the palace were suspected. The ministers in the harem did not know, but they heard that the three officials planned to eat meat, and there were more than a thousand people, and there were noble positions and private personalities at the bottom, and many thousands of people. Zhang Xiuyuan favored and punished the market, and the disaster was gradually aroused. The latter was the legitimate legitimate. If you want to favor, you can only favor Empress Cao. Zhang Meimei was not yours, etc.
—Money cannot be called into Jingfu Insider, and no one must be pampered by Zhang Meimei, this is the difference... Just say. But the truth is that Zhang Xiuyuan did not do anything bad or said a few words for her uncle. The palace is full of more than a thousand people, but how can a few imperial cities not require manpower? How many people need to be cleaned in such a large area? Don’t say how many people need to be served in this feudal society in the future, in future generations, to serve the White House? This is a helpless thing.
Zheng Lang thought badly in private, but fortunately the gentleman failed. Otherwise, in the end, Zhang Meimei would have fallen into the fate of the two concubines Yang Shang and forced her to go out of the palace to become a female Taoist priest.
But without making a sound, it will not explain the principle.
No matter how you say that the emperor was still the greatest power at this time, Zhao Zhen and others were very self-disciplined. What should I do if someone was not self-disciplined? There is only one who is in a state of divine and restrained. For the master, proper superstition is a good thing, and definitely not a bad thing.
This is a law, although the celestial phenomena have often become the magic weapon for the ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty to attack political enemies.
To be able to respect ghosts and gods, but not to be able to get close to ghosts and gods. To learn from Qin Emperor and Han Wu or later Song Huizong, I want to become an immortal with my physical body.
Zheng Lang valued another thing, because heavy snow fell because of sufficient water and the drought was gradually alleviating. At least a few snowfalls fell to alleviate the locust plague and the surface was wet. You can plant spring seeds in spring next year.
Zhao Zhen said: "Zheng Qing, do you think I am unethical?"
"As there are disasters, Your Majesty should reflect on yourself. As for whether you have lost your morals, I have not seen it, or I have a shallow vision. However, since there are disasters, Your Majesty must work harder, and the plan depends on others, and the success depends on heaven. Your Majesty strives to be a good man. If there are disasters again, it is God's ruthlessness, and you cannot blame Your Majesty."
"Xixia..."
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'm just paying attention. Your Majesty in the South should be careful."
"Nansheng"
"Chen Zhifang killed the evil witch Huang and the ghost hunting, but the remaining party had not been destroyed. Guiyangjian recently reported that his party members Tang He and Pan Zhiliang gathered more than 900 people to attack the border. This matter was when Chen Zhifang moved the Shengman who did not accept discipline. In the past, the court was very generous and appeased these Shengmans, and the barbarians had become arrogant. The court suddenly changed the rules and would inevitably be dissatisfied, and the thief power would also expand. The court sent a transshipment envoy Guo Fu to eliminate it before. However, the southern soldiers did not fight for a longer time and were cowardly and could not be used. Guo Fuzhi did not know about military affairs, and I believe that he would be defeated and increase the thief power. The country is recovering and cannot undergo any turmoil."
"The word of God is right..."
"And these are brave and powerful, good at using short spears, vines and shields, and should not be underestimated. The land is dangerous and poisonous. It is best to go out in the best season. The miasma begins to lighten in autumn and winter, otherwise the miasma will become a barrier in spring and summer. However, time does not wait for me, but I just happened to be the first to conquer Zhang Hai before, and I had trained and criticized the imperial guards for being familiar with the mountain roads. According to my opinion, I must issue an edict on Yong Yirong to merge the three states and select soldiers who are familiar with the skills of mountains and rivers. There is no need to be many, but it must be good. Then Di Qing led the imperial guards trained by the capital to go to the capital to suppress them with thunder to prevent the thief from being corrupt. Otherwise, the west will be peaceful, the south will have another thief, and the country will be unstable."
"Di Qing..."
"It's okay to have a northwest. In addition to Di Qing, there are others. Zhang Kang can help in an emergency. Wang Xin-Zhong Shiheng is rare in the time. There are also powerful generals such as Zhang Lei-Wang Ji-Jingtai-Ji-Yang Wenguang. There are enough generals. And the ugliness of the barbarians in the south. Your Majesty is not unaware of the ugliness of the country. The country is peaceful and tranquil, and the population has skyrocketed, but it is also a crisis. If you want to resolve it, you can only manage the Xiangjiang region and even the entire backward Kuizhou Road. But there is no need to hurry. Now you are just a kind of detection preparation. Not only does Di Qing send, but you also have to bring young generals such as Zhao Xuan-Guo Kui-Jing Sili to prepare talents for the country later."
"Di Qing will work very hard."
"Your Majesty, he is not old now. In another ten years, his merits will be more important. It will be a taboo for civil servants. Your Majesty wants to use it, but it is not very useful."
Zhao Zhen was speechless.
Zheng Lang didn't want to say more about this matter, and said: "If Your Majesty thinks that I am right, please issue an edict as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be even later. When spring is strong, the miasma will become heavier. Even if Di Qing goes to wipe out himself, it will only increase many difficulties. Before the spring miasma comes, it will be easy to wipe out the majority of the anti-barbarians. At the same time, it will also shock the south. From Kuizhou Road, there are many barbarians plotting rebellion and rebellion. Even if they do not consider managing the south, they will send elite troops to carry out pressure so that these arrogant people will not act rashly."
This time, the imperial court let Guo Fuzhi go first, but failed. Then Yang Mei went there. Yang Mei was defeated. In the six years, Moji, the rebels reached 5,000 people, and several states were corrupt. In six years, how much money was the country ruined? How many soldiers died? How many people were killed? So Zheng Lang was preparing to plan for this matter and advised the court to send the strongest Di Qing, who was the strongest, to suppress him. Of course, Zhao Zhen didn't know the inside story. He heard Zheng Lang talk seriously, and thought about it, and said: "Accurate."
Then he said worriedly: "Zheng Qing, Shouzhou also makes me feel embarrassed."
Guo Zi went on to Liangtian and got into big trouble.
