Chapter 187: The Emperor is compelled to
After Zhao Yunrang sat down, he took out a small hand ax and started picking his nails.
At this time, Tong Guan knelt down without saying a word, "My lord, Tong Guan, the envoy of the Jiangnan Provincial Government! I pay my respects to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and wish my emperor long life!"
After saying that, he started to pay homage.
After Tong Guan paid homage, the people from the Western Army and the Forbidden Army he brought with him all knelt down and paid homage to Zhao Yunrang together.
For a time, many of the hundreds of people knelt down and saluted, and the number of people standing became increasingly sparse.
After seeing this, Zhongshi Dao and the few others who were still standing also knelt down.
Everyone started shouting long live the mountain.
Zhao Yunrang leaned on the dragon chair with his eyes closed, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the arc of the smile became wider and wider.
"My dear friends, please be safe!"
Zhao Yunrang suppressed his smile and raised his hands to those who were still kneeling on the ground.
Those people all stood up, and they didn't say anything after they stood up.
They were all a little frightened. They had seen people who could carry a cauldron. In this strange world of Water Margin, there were many people who could carry a cauldron, but they had never seen anyone who could throw a cauldron.
Everyone was scared. In addition, there were guards with weapons watching them all around. It was impossible not to be scared at this time.
Tong Guan, who was the first to be timid, was the first to defect because his brain was good and it would be beneficial to defect to the first one. And the official position of Jiangnan Xuanfu Zhishi he mentioned was actually
This time, Fang La was not only given an official position, but also another person, Tan Zhen. Both of them were envoys of Jiangnan Xuanfu. In fact, Tong Guan was in charge of the Privy Council at this time.
His ability to take charge of the Privy Council was entirely a trick of Zhao Ji, in order to continue to suppress military generals, otherwise no one without brains would let a eunuch become the chief of the general office.
It can be said that Tong Guan's achievements are indeed certain, otherwise Zhao Ji would not have let him sit in the position of Privy Councilor.
I think that when he became an eunuch in his twenties, he was under the eunuch Li Xian at that time. He had a well-behaved personality and was good at guessing the emperor's will and making obedient decisions in advance.
After ascending the throne, he established the Jinming Bureau in Hangzhou. Tong Guan took charge of this matter as a minister and began to associate with Cai Jing.
Cai Jing came to Beijing to serve as an official, and was helped by Tong Guan. After Cai Jing became prime minister, he agreed to capture Qingtang, and told the emperor that Tong Guan had been sent to Shaanxi ten times as an envoy, and was familiar with the situation of the five routes and the talents of each general, and tried his best to recommend
Recommend him. The Song Dynasty combined 100,000 troops and appointed Wang Hou as the commander-in-chief. Tong Guan served as the supervisor of the army like Li Xian. When the army arrived in Huangzhou, there happened to be a fire in the palace. Song Huizong issued an edict and sent an edict to prohibit Tong Guan from sending troops.
Tong Guan opened it and put it in his boots after looking at it. Wang Hou asked him why, and Tong Guan replied: "Your Majesty hopes that the troops will be successful." He actually sent troops to fight, regained the four states, moved to Jingfu Palace Envoy, Xiangzhou Observer Envoy, and served for two consecutive terms based on his qualifications.
It started from Tong Guan.
Soon, Tong Guan was appointed as the envoy of Xihe Lanhuang and Qinfeng Road Economic Strategy, and was successively promoted to the military governor of Wukang Army. He defeated Xige Zangzheng, recovered Jishi Army, and Taozhou, and was promoted to Inspector Sikong.
But this was his most glorious moment. From then on, he went downhill completely. He also read the history books and their actions were clearly recorded, so he immediately abandoned the Privy Council.
He only said that he had a temporary position as Jiangnan Xuan Fu Zhi Envoy. He really didn't dare to imagine that if he said that he was the Privy Councilor, an ax would fly towards him.
"Who is the privy envoy? Stand up for yourself! There are also Jiangnan envoys. How is the situation in Jiangnan this time?"
Zhao Yun asked Mosuo with the small ax in his hand.
"Back at the official house, Jiangnan La has been razed, and the bandit leader Fang La was captured by his subordinate Han Shizhong in a battle. Han Shizhong was so brave that he broke into Fang La's lair in Qingxi Cave in Muzhou with a spear.
After a bloody battle, dozens of people were killed and Chief Dao Fangla was captured."
He didn't dare to lie at this time. He had seen Han Shizhong's deeds in the history books. He was now thinking of recommending Han Shizhong to Zhao Yunrang so that Zhao Yunrang would know how caring he was.
"Privy Councilor, since Han Shizhong has made the first contribution this time, how should he be rewarded?"
Zhao Yunrang looked at Tong Guan and said, he stared straight at Tong Guan when he spoke, so frightened that Tong Guan immediately knelt down.
"I am a eunuch, how can the official position of envoy and prime minister be given to an eunuch? There has never been a position of privy envoy in the court!"
He didn't dare to recognize this position because Zhao Yunrang started to use his axe, which made him a little scared.
"Yes, you are right. How can the official position of envoy and prime minister be conferred on eunuchs? If so, can the Duke of Jing be given to eunuchs? Can the Grand Master and the Duke of Chu be given to eunuchs? Prince Guangyang, please tell me.
Say it!"
Zhao Yunrang's words made Tong Guan's body exude a stinky smell.
"It's unbecoming of a king. Drag him out with two hundred imperial staffs!"
Zhao Yunrang frowned and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone pulled Tong Guan out. The people in the hall only heard a burst of screams, and then someone came in to report that Tong Guan had already died after only thirty strokes. He didn't know what to do.
.
"Whatever Cai Jing and the others have done, just follow the old routine."
After saying that, Zhao Yunrang waved to the officials who were standing there dumbly, "Zhong Shidao will stay, Zhang Shuye will stay, the others can go down, and if there is anything else, we can wait until the court meeting after I officially ascend the throne."
."
After he finished speaking, everyone else went down.
Looking at Zhong Shidao and Zhang Shuye in front of him, Zhao Yun let himself light a cigarette and started smoking.
"I will not hide it from you. Ninety percent of the civil servants in the court have been killed. The surrenderers you saw in the book have also died with their families. Now there are not enough officials in the court. Even Wang Dan,
Kou Zhun, Mr. Lu, it is not enough to borrow all these people. There are too few people below, so I intend to implement a military control system."
Then Zhao Yunrang told them about the military control system, then about the Zhuxia Alliance, and finally about the Northern Song Dynasty and Southern Song Dynasty.
When they were happy, Zhao Yunrang looked at them and said: "There is one more thing for you to stay, and that is that I have to explain to you. I have no choice but to come here to be the emperor, so you don't want the resources from the Northern Song Dynasty."
Thinking about it, as for why you are forced to think about it, just think about the dispute, so I want to know, is there anything special in this world?"
Zhao Yunrang's words directly poured several basins of ice water on them, extinguishing all their original enthusiasm.
They also tried their best to think about the benefits of this world, but none of them came up with it. At this time, a voice sounded behind them.
