After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Northern Liao army marched southward and forced the Tang Dynasty to sign an alliance under the city walls, which was a great shame and humiliation.
Then the Tang Dynasty successfully counterattacked, and the Northern Liao Dynasty lay dormant for more than ten years and gradually recovered its vitality.
Since then, the two countries have continued to friction in the northern Xinjiang area, with more and more conflicts. If a war does not happen every few years, the military and civilians of the two countries will feel that it is abnormal.
Did the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty (Liao Dynasty) become vegetarians collectively?
Against this background, the status of northern Xinjiang is unprecedentedly important.
The Northern Xinjiang Army was the strongest army in the Tang Dynasty. Even if the Southern Xinjiang Army said sourly that it was not weak, it still could not deny the fact that its skills were inferior to others.
During the government army system, the Northern Xinjiang Army was mainly composed of the disciples of Guanzhong and the government soldiers from the north, and would be rotated regularly.
Such a structure leaves no place for generals to act if they have different intentions.
What? Rebellion... you are so damn crazy!
The rotation system can ensure that the general cannot win over his subordinates... I haven't warmed up the hearts of his subordinates yet, I'm sorry, it's time to rotate.
But as the population increased and land annexation became more and more intense, the military system collapsed.
It’s no problem if the government’s military system collapses, but northern and southern Xinjiang have to be fortified!
So Li Yuan and his son proposed a method: the recruitment system.
There are no more soldiers, so you can recruit warriors on your own!
But a problem ensued. The border areas had no financial autonomy. Every year, taxes had to be sent to Chang'an first, and then Chang'an sent them back again.
The time spent going back and forth made Tobu want to vomit blood.
So the emperor waved his hand, don't make it so troublesome, let them collect taxes by themselves!
alright.
From then on, northern and southern Xinjiang became independent kingdoms.
If you collect your own taxes and recruit your own troops, if the power of appointing officials is still controlled by the DPRK, northern and southern Xinjiang will be considered treason, and no one will question it.
Huang Chunhui fell out with the emperor, but everyone was not worried that he would rebel. So when Huang Chunhui came to Chang'an, everyone showed a knowing smile.
It was just a quarrel, then things got better.
But now another problem, or a great opportunity, arises.
A piece of fat pork was thrown out by the emperor.
Whoever has the ability to snatch it away!
Deputy envoy of Jiedu, a proper and important minister.
Jiedu is the natural successor.
When Huang Chunhui was there, he strongly recommended Yang Xuan, but now the emperor has recommended his own candidate...Dali Temple Minister, Yuan Xun!
Yuan Xun originally served in the Southern Xinjiang Army for more than ten years and had a good record.
At this moment, he was standing on the side, letting the officials look at him.
A man in his forties is his best age, when his energy, experience, abilities... are all the most mature.
Who agrees!
Who objects?
The emperor looked at his ministers.
Wang Douluo moved.
Wang and Yang Xuan had some friendship, but Wang later let go, otherwise there would be another ally.
Zhou Zun spoke slowly, "Your Majesty, I would like to recommend someone."
"Shilang Zhou wants to recommend your son-in-law?" Zheng Qi said with a smile.
Zhou Zun nodded, "I would like to recommend Yang Xuan, the governor of Chenzhou!"
When Tu Qiongdeng saw him, why did he try to avoid it? Zhou Zun was so embarrassed that he went into battle shirtless for his son-in-law!
Zheng Qi glanced at Yang Songcheng... The abbot lowered his eyes, as if he was in trance.
"Yang Xuan?" the emperor said calmly.
Zhou Zun nodded, "Although Yang Xuan is the son-in-law of the minister, in the past years in northern Xinjiang, he started as the magistrate of Taiping County, and he has been a leader in both battles and governance. As the saying goes, one should not avoid relatives in internal promotions, and ministers recommend.
"
In short, the focus is on martial arts and governance.
That is the way of civility and martial arts.
Compared with this, Yang Xuan is really not afraid of anyone.
Yuan Xun's qualifications are sufficient, but both in performance and management ability, they are far behind Yang Xuan.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zun couldn't help but secretly praise his son-in-law's ability. If not, he wouldn't have the shame to recommend him.
Zheng Qi smiled, "Yang Shijun is good, but he is still young after all! I thought he could use a few more years of experience."
The Central Plains has a tradition of ranking based on seniority since ancient times, and seniority is nothing more than age... I am fifty, you are thirty, you are so young, just wait for another twenty years!
For people, age is something that makes people more troubled and anxious the more it increases.
But for many industries, age is a treasure.
Age represents many things: experience, stability, wisdom...
Young man, so impulsive!
One sentence knocked over a whole boatload of people.
Zhou Zun said: "During the Chen Kingdom, there was a general who led the army out of the fortress at the age of 18. He defeated the alien army with three battles and three victories. There was also a story about twelve prime ministers. Age was never a problem."
My son-in-law is over 20 years old.
"Young people are easily impulsive." Zheng Qi is like a resentful woman, talking over and over again.
Zhou Zun smiled and said, "I remember at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there were people in their twenties who were ministers."
At the beginning of the founding of the country, the Tang Dynasty had many talented people, and it was not uncommon for people in their twenties to become important ministers.
Zheng Qi said: "At that time, all kinds of wastes were in full swing, and everything was urgent."
"Is there harmony in Northern Xinjiang at the moment?" Zhou Zun retorted.
The two were in a quarrel and it was hard to tell who was better.
Yang Songcheng coughed dryly and said: "The situation in Northern Xinjiang is complicated. Not only do we have to lead the army to fight, but we also have to govern the place. What's more important is how to deal with Beiliao.
Being tough won't work, and being weak won't work either.
How to deal with it requires being steady and weighing the pros and cons... In this way, how can anyone who is not mature and prudent take on this responsibility?"
This is true!
Beiliao often deals directly with Northern Xinjiang, so it depends on the diplomatic skills of the person in charge.
"When Huang Xianggong was here, he was extremely stable." Yang Songcheng praised, as if he had forgotten that he led his men to attack Huang Chunhui and was a coward.
As a politician, you have to be shameless!
The more shameless you are, the higher your status is.
"Northern Xinjiang is primarily about governance and the ability to lead troops to fight, not diplomacy!" Zhou Zun retorted.
"Haha!" Yang Songcheng smiled and said, "If you go to war, many times the crisis can be solved without using troops. Why not? Zhou Shilang is like this... Could it be that he wants me to fight between the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Liao Dynasty?
The fighting between them is continuous?"
Zhou Zun said: "Where did the state leader start talking about this?"
The two sides were at loggerheads and refused to give in to each other.
Zheng Qi joins the battle group.
Luo Cai, who couldn't hold himself back for a long time, rolled up his sleeves and started spitting wildly, causing Yang Songcheng to cover his face with his sleeves.
Lao Luo's fighting power was too fierce. Gradually, Zhou Zun retreated to the second line, watching Luo Cai yell at Zheng Qi and others, pointing here and there, and scolding...
"... Diplomacy is important, but without the support of the army, what is diplomacy? It's just bullshit!"
For the sake of the little boy he valued, Lao Luo turned into an old gangster, "What qualifications, what age, and what is the use of qualifications? Qualifications are only those with outstanding military exploits and ability to govern the place. That is called qualifications. Being an official is mediocre, and fighting is mediocre.
Such a person, even if he lives to be a hundred years old, will still be useless!"
Lao Luo panted and waved, stood up, and looked around.
Why haven't you spoken?
Yang Songcheng wiped the saliva on his face expressionlessly. Zheng Qi coughed dryly and stopped talking.
The emperor stood up and said, "It's time to leave!"
The emperor strode toward the harem, and Han Shitou followed closely.
The emperor suddenly stopped and said: "What I regret most at this moment is that I left behind this old dog Luo Cai."
Han Shitou parroted his words and said angrily: "That old dog will die!"
Luo Cai was walking alone in the imperial city at this moment, no, he was lonely.
Zhou Zun stepped forward and said, "Thank you very much."
Luo Cai shook his head, "Yang Xuan is also a young man that I watched grow up. How did he do in Northern Xinjiang? Not bad! Those people are just moaning for no reason at any age.
If everything is based on seniority, this Tang Dynasty will not be far from becoming old. In fact, it is already old. All I can do is try my best."
Zhou Zun whispered: "Thank you very much."
For this matter, the emperor gathered Yang Songcheng and others with great momentum. Zhou Zun was alone. If Luo Cai had not stepped forward today, this matter would probably have gone wrong.
Zhou Zun still knows a little about his son-in-law's temperament. If the post of deputy envoy of Jiedu cannot be planned, Chenzhou will most likely become a state within a state in northern Xinjiang.
That son-in-law, except for Liu Qing, Huang Chunhui and others who could make him bow his head willingly and help him, not even Liao Jin could suppress him.
Not to mention Yuan Xun.
Once this happens, the situation becomes complicated.
Therefore, Zhou Zun's gratitude was genuine and he wished he could invite Luo Cai back to get drunk.
"Luo Shangshu!"
Luo Cai turned around, but it was Zheng Qi who called him.
"What's the matter?" Luo Cai always had a cold face towards people like Zheng Qi.
Zheng Qi approached, "I know that Luo Shangshu has a relationship with Yang Shijun. Every time Yang Shijun comes to Chang'an, he will give Luo Shangshu some gifts, right?"
Those medicinal materials... Luo Cai nodded, "That's right."
To deny it at this time is to slap yourself in the face.
Zheng Qi shook his head and sighed, "Let's go."
Later, someone accused Luo Cai of accepting bribes from local officials.
One copy, two copies...the memorial flew into the palace like flakes of snow.
Luo Cai smiled bitterly, "Are you driving me home?"
The entourage advised: "Why should Luo Gong argue with Your Majesty? If you take a step back, the world will be brighter for you!"
Luo Cai pointed to his chest and said slowly: "What will I say when I go underground and see the late Emperor and Emperor Wu? Say that I chose to live a low life under heavy pressure?! I'm so shameless!"
An official came in, looking anxious, "Shang Shu, Zheng Qi has taken action."
Luo Cai said calmly: "The old thing raised by my wife!"
Lao Luo cursed.
…
Yang Xuan returned to Chang'an.
"The old thief took them to buy grain and grass, and also bought dozens of sheep."
He has nearly two hundred followers, and his daily expenses are a large sum of money.
The old thief asked: "What's for lunch?"
"Let Yuanzhou Ramen bring it...that's all. The quantity is too big and they don't have that many people, so let them eat it in the shop."
Wang Laoer added, "Old thief, I want Huang's biscuits."
The old thief asked: "That woman from the Huang family has fair and tender skin, do you want her to give you the cake to cover with her breasts?"
Wang Laoer said disdainfully: "It's all sweat, what are you covering up with? You wear a lot of clothes in this weather, and you can't see the woman's thighs."
The old thief raised his eyebrows, "You can see her breasts...that woman's bottom line is extremely low."
"The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes, get out!" Yang Xuan shouted.
"Get out of here!" The old thief raised his eyebrows at Wang Laoer, touched his thigh, and then led the guards away.
Old snake skin!
It took my dick all the way down.
Yang Xuan led people into the imperial city.
"Shijun Yang!"
An official came to greet him. Yang Xuan remembered that this person was from the Ministry of Personnel. "What's the matter?"
The official sighed, "Many people have impeached Luo Gong these days just to envoy you."
How did you say this?
Yang Xuan was stunned, and the official said angrily: "Your Majesty wanted Yuan Xun, the minister of Dali Temple, to be the deputy envoy of Jiedu. Zhou Shilang recommended the envoy, and Luo Gong stood up for the envoy. He argued hard, and was subsequently impeached, saying that Luo Gong accepted it.
Let you bribe me."
No wonder the officials I met earlier looked weird, that's why.
"What bribe?"
"Every time the envoy comes to Chang'an, he always sends something to the envoy."
Those are the grass roots of rotten streets in the prairie!
One of the important raw materials of Rejuvenation Pill.
How does this matter have anything to do with bribery?
"Tell me carefully."
"Shilang Zhou recommended the envoy to you, but the abbot and others said that the envoy was too young and not stable enough. If you take this position, you might start a war without permission."
Yang Xuan nodded, "I understand."
The official said: "Luo Gong is suffering!"
Just don’t cry!
Yang Xuan turned around and said, "Bring me the gift I prepared for Your Majesty."
Your Majesty's gift?
The old thief was not here, and Wang Laoer was confused.
What a bunch of sticks!
Yang Xuan glanced at Uda, who was so excited that he turned around and brought a sack.
Yang Xuan has been the focus of discussion in the imperial city these past two days. Seeing him carrying a sack with a faint smile, everyone gathered around him.
What is this person trying to do?
Luo Cai was implicated by him, and his father-in-law did not please him. Many people were impeached in the past two days.
Yang Xuan untied the rope from the mouth of the sack, held it upside down, and shook it vigorously.
A pile of grass was shaken out.
Yang Xuan said: "This is what I gave to Mr. Luo. Not only Mr. Luo, I also gave it to many people, including several bad people from Wannian County..."
Everyone took a closer look...
"Isn't this just a pile of grass?"
"Yes, it's just a pile of grass. After boiling it, it can clear fire." Yang Xuan pointed to the herb, "These things are everywhere on the grassland. They are used to feed cattle and sheep. They don't eat them. The herdsmen call them: dogs.
thing!
What does it mean? Something that dogs won’t eat.
Chang'an Fengsha fell in love with the fire, I gave it to others, not for bribery, this girl can't be said to be a bribe, right?"
Someone said: "Who knew you were sending this!"
"Come out!" Yang Xuan raised his head, "If you dare to speak up, stand up!"
An official came out and smiled, "Of course I dare to say that. I just want to ask Yang Shijun, what is in the sack you gave to Luo Shangshu?"
Death without proof!
It's useless no matter what you say!
Yang Xuan pointed to the herbs on the ground, "I forgot to tell you, every time I come in with a sack, I will have it checked by the sergeant guarding the door."
He didn't turn around and waved, "Go to someone and ask!"
Wang Laoer had the best memory and ran away quickly.
Several sergeants were brought over.
One of them said: "Every time Yang Shijun comes with a sack, he will open it and turn it over completely... The villain said no, no, no, but he just didn't listen."
Yang Xuan turned around and looked at everyone.
"Who still has questions?"
…
Ministry of official affairs.
Luo Cai watched expressionlessly as the eunuch's lips moved in front of him...
"Gong Luo has worked hard for many years, and your majesty will remember it in your heart, but...the following words are what we said in private. People say that fallen leaves return to their roots. Luo Gong, just before, we saw more than ten censors holding bullets and asking to see your majesty. The crowd was very excited.
. Mr. Luo, please tell me something from the bottom of my heart, don’t lose your security this late!”
