Chapter 194 Champion Uncle
…
The day after Cai Shen took Han Shizhong away, he used his power and relationships to fight for Han Shizhong that he should have belonged to Han Shizhong to capture Fang La and his wife Shao, son Fang Bo, Prime Minister Fang Fei and more than 30 others.
As a result, Han Shizhong was more grateful to Cai, and then followed Cai Jian more devotedly.
In order to show his loyalty, Han Shizhong dug up the Jinwu army, like Min, Jie Yuan, Yue Chao, Dong Min, Chen Yu, Hu Yantong, and Xu Shi'an.
In addition, because he had been in the Shengjie Army for many years, Han Shizhong knew too well who was capable of the Shengjie Army and who was as depressed as him.
Therefore, if Han Shizhong helped Cai still poach people, he was so accurate.
In addition, the news of Tong Guan’s resignation spread, and with the intentional publicity of Cai’s people, the people of Shengjie Army believed that Shengjie Army might be split and they would have to find food for themselves in the future.
In addition, Tong Guan was gone and no one cared about Shengjie Army, which made the people of Shengjie Army let go of the sheep.
As a result, thousands of Shengjie soldiers were poached by Cai Jian, the Jinwu army was greatly supplemented, and the Shengjie army became even weaker.
Cai Shen also kept his word and did not wait for Han Shizhong's great achievements to achieve results. Han Shizhong, who had received political education and recruit training, formed a new army and temporarily took over the position of command. Han Shizhong's brothers were promoted to intermediate officers by Cai Shen and dispersed to his own Jinwu Army after receiving political education and recruit training. Han Shizhong helped Cai Shen to deal with the people he had been poached after receiving political education and recruit training, but this was all a story.
Because he wanted to win the corner of the Jie Army, Cai still couldn't help but delayed a while. It was not until the end of September that Cai still returned to the city of Bianliang, Tokyo.
To be honest, before returning to Beijing, Cai Jian, who was guilty of establishing his own base, was really afraid of returning to Beijing.
But Cai still couldn't hold on anymore, and it would be even more risky if he couldn't hold on again.
Thinking that the ugly daughter-in-law would sooner or later, she would inevitably be able to see her parents-in-law even if she stretched her head and shrank her head. Cai still gritted her teeth and then returned to the city of Bianliang without hesitation. The Jinwu Army returned to the Jinwu Army under the leadership of Yue Fei, Wu Jie, Han Shizhong and others.
...
What Cai still didn't expect was that Zhao Ji actually visited Jinglongmen and watched the ceremony of the Kai Kai.
Jinglongmen is very famous in Tokyo and is located in front of the Imperial City Koubaolu Palace. Every year on the Lantern Festival, the lights are blooming and brilliant. There are endless citizens coming to watch the lights and bustling. Zhao Ji also comes here to visit every year and enjoy the people.
The welcome ceremony was grand, with the sound of the sheng, and the tall imperial guards stood in two full roads.
Seeing such a scene, Cai was still even more worried. He was afraid that when a group of swordsman suddenly rushed out and chopped himself into meat sauce.
Therefore, Cai Shen was not proud of himself at all and was polite to everyone, which made everyone have a higher evaluation of Cai Shen.
Moreover, when Cai still saw Zhao Ji, he presented Zhao Ji with ten peerless calligraphy and ten peerless paintings.
These things are the most precious things that Cai Shen seized this time, and they can be said to be priceless.
But Cai still gave it to Zhao Ji without even blinking.
After Zhao Ji saw these peerless treasures, Long Yan became more happy and was still more enthusiastic about Cai.
The next day, Zhao Ji issued an imperial edict, and was granted the title of Cai and was still the governor of the Jinwu Army, the chief minister of the military service, and the champion of the champion.
After Cai Shen's reward was received, it was both beyond the expectations of the world and within the world.
Unexpectedly, it was because Cai was still only twenty years old and was less than twenty-one, and had reached such a height, which was so shocking!
As expected, that was because Cai Shen and Tong Guan and Tan Zhen saved the Song Dynasty. It was worthy of such a high-ranking title, and even a higher-ranking title. Don’t you see Tong Guan being promoted to the title of Grand Tutor, Duke of Chu, Tan Zhen being promoted to the title of Jiedu of Huainan Army, Marquis of Ruyang?
In addition to being enfeoffed by Cai Shen, Zhao Ji also rewarded Cai Shen heavily. Cai Shen's mansion had been built. Zhao Ji ordered that all the supplies required in the new house, no matter the size, be paid to Cai Shen with public funds. On the day of the new year's move, Zhao Ji ordered the Palace Educational House band to move to play music for Cai Shen. The convoy advanced wildly, and the people in the capital watched it together, which caused a sensation. Moreover, Zhao Ji personally mentioned the word "Lumeitang" for Cai Shen's new house (this name was because Cai Shen had a very beautiful plum blossom at home).
After receiving the reward from Zhao Ji, Cai Jian finally let go of his heart - his affairs should not be revealed.
A few days later, Zhao Ji issued a memorial edict to the southeastern prefectures and counties.
The pardon of the edict said: The command of military and bans is to show the great achievements of the emperor; to promote political and benevolent, to embody the great virtues of heaven and earth...
To put it simply, there are three contents:
1. Qu Pastors from the southeast prefectures and counties are granted. The so-called Qu Pastors are to pardon criminals from one or several places separately. Except for those who disobey the emperor's orders and rebels, the other criminals will be pardoned regardless of the size of the crime and will be released immediately. Each prefecture and county must use them to determine their talents and make them have their own belongings.
2. Exemption of the juvenile rate means exempting all kinds of taxes and taxes from the southeastern prefectures and counties. For poor and hungry people, they will provide relief to officials and grain, and do not displace the people.
3. To promote talented people, all kinds of talents who are talented and have been lost among the people, or those who have been recommended by the village but have not been tried, those who offend or are excluded by the powerful because of loyalty, and officials who have been punished for mistakes must be identified and promoted.
In this way, Fang La's uprising was completely over.
Because Cai still appeared, because Cai still surrendered the Fang Layi army of Yu Daoan, Lu Shinang, Hu Long, Zhu Liang's tribe, Qiu Rixin, Fang Qifo, Fang Wuxianggong and other tribes who should have resisted stubbornly in Taizhou and Wenzhou and other tribes. Zhao Ji did not temporarily give up the recovery of Yan Yun like in history, but was still obsessed with the recovery of Yan Yun.
There is actually a reason for this.
After Tong Guan's troops went to the court, Wang Fu reminded him that Zhao Ji finally remembered that there were two Jin envoys (i.e., Helu and Dadiu) who were under house arrest in the Tongwenguan.
At the beginning, the reason why Zhao Ji and the others put down Helu and Dadiu was because they wanted to decide whether to continue to join forces with Jin and destroy Liao based on the situation of extermination of Fang La's gang?
Now, the Fang La Yi army has been successfully wiped out, and the areas that are not stable are all under the control of the Jinwu Army. It is only a matter of time to settle down.
It can be said that the battle to suppress Fang La was going smoothly, and the cut-off Southeast economic lifeline has been reconnected.
The key is that all this was half a year earlier than in history.
At this time in history, although Fang La had been executed, the Fang La's army of Yu Daoan, Lu Shinang, Hu Long, Zhu Liang's army, Qiu Rixin, Fang Qifo, Fang Wuxianggong and other troops persisted until March next year before being completely suppressed by the Song army.
Moreover, although the Fang La uprising failed at that time, the struggle between peasants from all over the country to fight against the Zhao Song Dynasty did not stop. Some of the hidden rebel troops used the Manichean organization to continue to maintain secret contacts; some even carried out sudden armed attacks while the government was unprepared.
(In history, armed uprisings broke out in Yanzhou in 1129 AD, and in Quzhou and Yanzhou in 1131 AD. Some of these uprisings were initiated by Fang La's remaining troops, and some were organized by Manichaeism. It can be said that the Fang La uprising continued.)
This made Zhao Ji very worried.
The key point is that at that time, Zhao Ji didn't know when the Southeast would restore his offerings to the Northern Song Dynasty court, so he temporarily extinguished the idea of regaining Yan Yun.
Now, because of Cai Shen's relationship, the underground forces in the southeast are almost gone, and no one will carry out sudden armed attacks from time to time, and the southeast will restore its support to the Zhao Song Dynasty in advance.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Ji was inevitably itchy again.
The prime minister Wang Fu is just as itchy as Zhao Ji.
It can be said that if Cai Jing does not die for one day, Wang Fu cannot be completely relieved in one day.
Wang Fu could not kill Cai Jing, and Wang Fu didn't believe that he would be no better than Cai Jing in his life.
Therefore, Wang Fu also wanted to regain Yan Yun to prove that he was better than Cai Jing.
In this way, with the support of Wang Fu, although Zheng Zhongju and others repeatedly urged Zhao Ji to send the Jin envoy away and extinguish the dream of regaining Yan Yun, Zhao Ji refused to agree. Moreover, Zhao Ji also punished those who opposed the fiercely and restored Zhao Liangsi, Ma Zheng, Ma Kuo and others to their posts.
Zhao Ji's attitude was like this, which made the fire that had been extinguished to recover Yan Yun reignite.
However, those who opposed Zheng Zhongju and others did not give up resisting because of Zhao Ji's attitude. They calmly analyzed the situation, argued according to reason, and even tried to drive Helu and Dadiu away.
This made Zhao Ji hesitate again!
Before Cai still came back, the two sides were quarreling, which caused Helu and Dadiu, who should have left at the end of August, to delay until October.
After Cai Jian returned to Beijing, he only rested at home for two days. Zhao Ji recruited Cai Jian into the palace on the grounds of discussing the recovery of Yan Yun.
As soon as they met, Zhao Ji took the initiative to say, "I wanted to let my beloved rest for a few more days and summon me again, but some things really made me feel uncomfortable, so I wanted to talk to you to ease my heart."
Cai still said: "If you have any questions, please ask me, and I will definitely know everything."
Zhao Ji didn't say nonsense, he asked bluntly: "Is the Southeast change due to the Flower and Stone Order or the Tea and Salt Method?"
When Cai Shen heard that Zhao Ji was asking about this, he suddenly had a headache!
This is not a simple multiple-choice question.
You know, because of this question, Tong Guan has retired.
Moreover, the tea and salt method was chaired by Cai Jing, the eldest uncle of Cai.
Therefore, Cai is still more difficult to choose than Tong Guan.
Seeing that Cai Jian was hesitant, Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jian and said again: "Tong Guan said it was caused by the Hua Shi Gang, and Wang Fu and Tan Zhen said it was caused by the Tea and Salt Method."
Zhao Ji said angrily: "I'm so strange. Why does a simple and clear thing have two completely different answers? Moreover, these two completely different answers are given to me by my important ministers. I just want to know who is lying and who should I believe in the future?"
