More than twenty ministers brought in.

Zhao Zhen asked angrily: "Who is it, who wants to break my arm?"

Once the four prophecies were spread, Zheng Lang's career ended here, and he could only be a minister who made a soy sauce in the future. Otherwise, he would have to "Die" to lead the Zhao family. There are results and causes. The four prophecies were directed towards Zheng Lang, and there was no other person who wanted to make profits. One was the magistrate of the two governments, and he did not want Zheng Lang to threaten their rights in the future. The other was that the ministers were dissatisfied with Zheng Lang's various practices in the south and could not find them, so he had to make four prophecies first. With the prophecies, it would be easy to impeach Zheng Lang. Even Zheng Diezhao was often brought out in the future, and Zheng Lang had no choice but to be disgraced.

As for Di Qing, Zhao Zhen really never thought about it. In the Song Dynasty, a general would never have the right to speak.

Dozens of ministers looked at each other.

Zhao Zhen did not say the prophecy, but knew it was for the prophecy.

Fu Bi said, "Your Majesty, I have issued an edict to investigate it strictly. This person is too shameless."

Political struggle is inevitable. Xiao He and Cao Shen were the two great wise ministers of the Western Han Dynasty. Putting aside this glamorous cloak and carefully analyses, they actually fought to the death. Yao Chong, Song Jing, and Zhang Shuo, the three great wise ministers of the Kaiyuan prosperous era, also fought to the death.

Li Linfu was nailed to the pillar of shame, but when it comes to analysis, the reason why he bewitched Li Longji without asking about political affairs was nothing more than that he wanted to hold power and use the Hu people as the governor, which was to prevent Han officials from making meritorious service on the frontier, returning to serve as prime ministers, and threatening his regime. But he did not want the Tang Dynasty to collapse and collapse. In order to handle government affairs, he brought the quilt to the Political Affairs Hall, and even his family rarely returned, so he slept in the Political Affairs Hall, and few people could do the diligence. In fact, when he was prime minister, the Tang Dynasty showed no sign of decline, and Li Linfu did not want to have the idea of ​​usurping the throne. Everything is for one word, power.

There must be a proper balance in the fight, and you cannot even make it happen. As soon as this precedent is opened, you can imagine the cruelty of the court in the future.

Liang Shi said, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. In my opinion, I will send someone to investigate it strictly. This statement will not take long. If you conduct a strict investigation, you will eventually find clues. Secondly, I have two other opinions. The first one may not be the work of the ministers in the court. Your Majesty is wise and has to make mistakes. If the matter is exposed, your Majesty will punish you heavily, and the gain will not be worth the loss. I think it may be the work of the enemy country."

"Which country?"

"I don't know, but I should not underestimate the role of the secret spies. Several secret spies in the secret spies in the secret spies upended the Khitan and Xixia. They only spread a few rumors, and neither of them can compare."

It seems to make sense, especially the people of Xixia. Even the palace servants released by Zhao Zhen bought them and did almost everything. Zhao Zhen pondered for a while and said, "What about the second one?"

"The second article is to be in the opinion of the minister, Di Qing can be summoned back to the capital. The rebellion of the Nong clan was almost completely destroyed. There may be several years when the Barbarian tribes did not listen to the court's mobilization. Zheng Lang's performance in the Battle of Xunqian was enough to destroy these tribes. Moreover, the Nong clan was so ungrateful, which was rarely heard of throughout the ages. Di Qing could also take Nong's mother and Nong Zhigao back to the capital to show warning. Once Di Qing returned to the capital, the rumors were self-defeated."

"Nong family..." Zhao Zhen said unhappily that the Song Dynasty raised several ungrateful wolves, and the Western Xia was not the most powerful one. It was somewhat related to some of Zhao Kuangyi's practices. Only this Nong Zhigao was the real ungrateful wolves. Without the support of the Song Dynasty, there would be no growth of the Nong family. Moreover, seeing that the Nong family was not weird, the Song Dynasty continued to give them no restrictions without any restrictions. Not only did they sit on the sidelines of the emperor, but they also took the initiative to divide the Qiyuan Prefecture and other dependent states to give them land under the rule of the Danan Kingdom. Or is it true that the Song Dynasty did not accept Nong Zhigao as a minister?

Be a subject. Since you are a subject, you will hand over the former Song Dynasty's vassal states. If you don't give in, you will continue to be an emperor and continue to expand your territory in the various Song Dynasty's vassal states. When Jiaozhi comes, I am a Song Dynasty minister again. You Song Dynasty must send tens of thousands of troops to resist Jiaozhi's attack on me.

The tens of thousands of ministers of the Song Dynasty, plus the emperor, and nearly 100 million people, are they all fools?

Therefore, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty felt hatred and grievances, but Zheng Lang did not think so. There are absolute nostalgia and freedom in the world. Long live freedom and national autonomy are all deceptive and extremely vicious. If you want to govern, you cannot give the local area absolute nostalgia. That is not freedom, it is to indulge the people under your rule to divide, or treat them as a country like Dali. Furthermore, treat Guangdong and Guangxi as the territory of the Song Dynasty, ignore it, and even treat it as a inferior region, a place of exile, and how can the people of Lingnan become loyal to the country?

But Nong Zhigao gave Zheng Lang a great opportunity. Without Nong Zhigao, Zheng Lang wanted to develop Lingnan and implement the current measures in Lingnan. It would be impossible for the imperial court to invest 100 million yuan.

Zhao Zhen thought for a while and said, "Liang Qing, please report."

Knowing that Di Qing would help Zheng Lang in Lingnan, but the prophecy would be very serious. The two sides chose to choose and lose the car to protect the coach, so they had to transfer Di Qing back to the capital.

Other ministers also found this statement quite reasonable.

Only Pang Ji looked at Liang Shi suspiciously, and thought about it again, but he couldn't think of anything.

Afterwards, it seemed to prove that Liang Shi's judgment was correct. The prophecy was spread for a few days, and after many yamen runners were strictly investigated, they were quickly found out.

Two middle-aged people used money and tempted some toys and fruits to sing some naughty children in the capital. They even asked for accents, which was a northwest accent. They also invited painters to paint portraits, but the painters did not master the Western photo skills, and only drew a model.

Use these two portraits to go down to the sea capture.

It is a rumor deliberately released by people, so it is not a prophecy.

But the news also came out, and it was finally a shadow. So Di Qing ordered Di Qing to escort Nong Zhigao's family and return to the capital with the remaining foreign cavalry.

Zheng Lang quickly found out about such a big thing in Guangzhou.

There is no way. I don’t know which one person did it, or it may be that it was made by the people of Xixia. We cannot underestimate Wuzang Epang. But Di Qing couldn’t keep it anymore. Di Qing happened to return to Guizhou, so he summoned all the important officials from Guangnan East Road together.

Yue'er made tea for more than a dozen people.

Zheng Lang took out the drawings, and a total of 1,100 drawings not only cover water conservancy, but also roads. The construction of dikes, dams, dams, vehicles, slopes, and ladders brought nearly 300,000 hectares of various arable land. Not all of them are new arable land, and 100,000 hectares of reinforced dikes, but new arable land accounts for the majority. Not all of them are for the migrants, nor can they be cultivated. The 200,000 hectares of arable land can be cultivated at least 400,000 households, which is a number that cannot be completed by immigrants. Some of them will be handed over to the local macaque barbarians, and some will come out of the deep mountains and forests. The naturalized Shengman tribes are also in the future. However, the current arable land and water conservancy projects and roads have met the needs of the development of Guangnan East Road for two or three years.

Economic conditions are not acceptable, so I can't find any money if I redevelop it.

So many drawings are not only the contribution of Zheng Lang and all important officials, but also the contribution of officials of various prefectures and counties. However, Zheng Lang made the greatest contribution in the middle and advanced theory. It broadened the ideas of many officials, such as Chetian. With Chetian, many dry land can be irrigated. For example, "Dou", some places are also called han, or culverts. The dam is built on the dike to prepare for Xuanbo, build dams on the seawall, and breathe tides. It can be convenient to control and regulate the water source. But Zheng Lang directly

In the Qing Dynasty, the Dou was built with long-standing anvil and strong pine wood, which could make the gates of the gates so that when they are opened and closed, the rainy season could be divided into internal slums. In the dry season, the fields of slums, that is, those swamp areas, and even low-lying and humid areas with many malaria, immediately became good acres and high fertility. However, not all dikes were dominated by the Dou to control the water source, and some areas were based on the terrain. Small stone bridges were built instead, and irrigation was irrigated when they were drought, and blocked when they were slumped, which could also facilitate the passage of small rivers and boats.

And many other things.

It was these ideas that allowed the Ming and Qing dynasties to gradually develop Guangdong and Guangxi.

Although the Qing Dynasty developed Guangdong and Guangxi, the country always lacked a unified plan. Most projects were built by the landlords with the permission of the government and led the people to build themselves, causing many disputes and waste. However, this waste comes from the people and has nothing to do with the court. Therefore, although the people are hardworking, their development has been slow.

In other words, Zheng Lang made a great leap forward for Guangdong and Guangxi.

But there are many problems. Linhai Yushui Delta has large embankments, and other areas are mostly fragmented and scattered small projects. Some dam fields can only irrigate dozens of acres. There are nearly a thousand water conservancy projects alone, with more than 600 embankments and slopes and dams, and the length of the embankments reaches more than 7,000 miles. The stone embankments occupy more than 4,000 miles. The length of the newly built and expanded roads reaches nearly 20,000 miles. As for the employment, the more the better, and the more the better. Even if there are millions of people to construct, it will not be too small.

This is how tens of millions of dollars spent.

Gunpowder was also invented, otherwise the project cost would be increased by half.

He handed these drawings to Yuan Tao, Tian Yu, Cheng Shimeng, Yang Cha, and Cai Ting, and said, "Everyone, I'll leave the matter of Guangnan East Road to you."

Tian Yu was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

You are the real boss in Guangdong and Guangxi. The project is about to start full construction and you cannot escape.

"Zheng Diezhao, civil and military companions, fly south and return north. Can I not be afraid?"

"Where did this come from?" Yang Cha asked in surprise.

"The nursery rhyme that just emerged in the capital."

"Damn it." Zhou Heng said angrily. It was too unfair. Zheng Lang was exhausted and actually got this slander.

"Although it's abominable, I must be warned. The two-way management teams always hold all the military, political and financial powers in Lingnan. They are separated by five ridges. The various investments of the court may be close to 100 million yuan, and they will be handed over to me alone. It is already contrary to the family laws of the ancestors. With General Di Qing as a military assistant, how can it not cause some gossip? Therefore, I will hand over the affairs of Guangnan East Road to you."

Everyone kept silent together.

That is, decentralization.

After Di Qing left, he still couldn't do it. He had to separate the power, especially so much money, if he used it to rebel, he could do a lot of things. But if he handed it over to Tian Yu and other ministers, Zheng Lang could not control it, and the rumors were self-defeating. Therefore, Zheng Lang's return to Guizhou was also a high attitude.

Zheng Lang also said: "Everyone, although the preliminary preparations are complete, the project can be fragmented. Once implemented, it will inevitably lead to many disputes. Pay attention to mediation and be fair. By next spring, the project will basically be able to work, and the people will start to sow spring, and all matters will be implemented."

After talking about some details, Zheng Lang left Guangzhou the next day and took a boat back to Guizhou.

Di Qing still needs to prepare, but he has not left.

Zheng Lang called Di Qing and Sima Guang home, asked them to sit down, and said, "General Di, thank you for the hard work in the past six months."

"Mr. Zheng, I dare not take it."

Zheng Lang looked at Sima Guang again and said, "Junshi, you have worked hard too."

"Mr. Zheng, thank you." Sima Guang said, feeling terrified and almost threw his life on Temo.

"You are down-to-earth in doing things and knowledgeable. This is your strength. You can do things more conservatively. Therefore, I let you come and practice and open up your ideas. I don't know if there will be war in the future, otherwise I will call Jie Fu and let him see the cruelty of the war." After that, he looked at Di Qing and said, "I will write a memorial, and you stand by me to watch."

"Here."

Zheng Lang asked Yue'er to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone. He began to write memorials. First, he talked about the war. Liang Shi said that Lingnan was safe and sound. No, Jiaozhi was ambitious and should not be underestimated. Besides, there were Meishan Man, both battles were dangerous. I was not as proficient in military affairs as Liang Shi said. Now, because some people are not meant to be clever, they have to transfer Di Qing back to the capital, but they also have to send a famous general, Zhang Kang.

Not afraid of ten thousand, just fear of what if.

It is also said that there are lack of military generals in the court who can conquer and fight well. Although there are disasters in the south, it is only scabies, which will hurt when cut off. However, it is only painful and does not affect life danger. The north is the most deadly, and neither the Western Xia nor the Khitan should be underestimated. Although some generals are good at commanding infantry. Only Di Qing can have the overall situation and strategy, and use cavalry well. In the future, cavalry will be used. In this case of false rumors, Di Qing is another military general, rushing into the court and will be excluded by civil officials. I hope Zhao Zhen will think twice and treat Di Qing well, not for Di Qing, but for the future of the Song Dynasty.

Di Qing is equal to the future of the Song Dynasty!

"Mr. Zheng..." Di Qing was so moved that he couldn't speak.

Zheng Lang's words came from the heart, and he also expected that after Di Qing returned, it would be a bad thing, and it would be very miserable. He was strong and had many injuries on his body. Once he was hit, he would be like Wang Zhongsi and would not live long.

This memorial was written in front of Di Qing, just for Di Qing to read, don’t feel wronged. I will support you later...

Still worried, he put down the memorial and said, "General Di, the emperor loves you very much. In addition, you have made extraordinary achievements several times, and you will definitely use you when you return to the court. But for you, it may not be a good thing."

"However, the emperor..." Sima Guang stumbled.

"Just, the emperor is the king of a country. He is to rule the world, not to punish the world. Even if he protects General Di, if all the scholars and officials are angry and attacked, will the emperor want Di Banjun alone, or do he want the scholars and officials?"

"I did not offend the scholar-officials, either."

"General Di, you have not offended the scholar-officials, but you are a military general, and you are rushing into the two palaces, how can the scholar-officials tolerate it?"

"Unfair!" Di Qing said angrily. He didn't say the next sentence, I worked hard to death, why could these scholars and officials use me as a monkey just by talking?

"Di Qing, the so-called fairness is just a legendary noun. Look at this sky, the sky is round, the sun is big and bright, followed by the moon, the stars are weak, even if the stars are different, the sky is unfair! Look at this earth, the earth has high mountains, ridges, plains, high and low, the earth is unfair! Look at this water, the water is clear and turbid, wide and narrow, the water is unfair! The heaven and earth are unfair, the mountains, rivers, sun and moon are unfair, how can the world be fair? The so-called fairness is just a kind of gift from the strong to the weak,

A way of balance. Otherwise, the weak will be unable to repel resentment and will eventually lead to degeneration. After all, the strong are a minority. Once the resentment reaches a certain level, they will gather together and will have a turbulent effect. The country is destroyed and the powerful disappears. The strong are no longer the strong, and they can only trample on them at will. Therefore, the wiser the strong are, the more they can give, the darker the strong are, the more greedy the strong are, the less they can give, the poor are severely divided, the weak are accumulated, and the resentment is accumulated, and the strong are eventually gone. This is the principle of the evolution of the Book of Changes, my study of the doctrine of the mean."

Di Qing was still a little stunned when he heard this, but Sima Guang was pondering.

"It is impossible to say fairness, but there is actually no fairness at all. Even the emperor needs a balanced way. For example, when Empress Guo died, Yang Shang and the other beauties pulled out of the palace to be female Taoist priests, what should Your Majesty do? Kill the relevant literati? No. Once you kill, the literati will be disappointed. For the sake of the balance of the country, you will be patient and choose the big one to abandon the small one, and accept it silently. If the literati siege against you, what should Your Majesty do for balance?"

"What should I do?"

"Learn from Wang Deyong!"

But Di Qing may not be able to listen. Let’s talk about it at that time. Zheng Lang said again: “General Di, you are leaving Guangdong and Guangxi. I’ll ask you something.”

"What's the matter?"

"Jiaozhi," Zheng Lang said to Xunzhou: "If Jiaozhi suddenly attacks Guangdong and Guangxi, what strategy should I use to deal with it?"

"It's hard to deal with."

"I know that Jiaozhi is a country that is not comparable to that of Nong Zhigao. Moreover, Jiaozhi has been expanding over the years, and it cannot underestimate the combat effectiveness of its army. The terrain and climate are quite unfavorable to our North Korean army and are difficult to deal with."

Di Qing pondered for a long time and said, "Mr. Zheng, do you want to occupy Jiaozhi, or just let them settle down?"
To be continued...
