After Huizong made a mistake that day, he was worried that he would not be able to change King Yama. The Five Dao generals led a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and heavenly warriors to help him realize his dream. Unexpectedly, Xixia, an enemy of his, came to the door! With his eyes shining, Huizong asked Aiqing
Cai You winked.
After Cai Jing's death, Cai Youman thought it was his turn to become prime minister. Unexpectedly, Huizong promoted his brother-in-law Zheng Juzhong to be prime minister, and Cai You had no choice but to serve as his deputy. Cai You was young and energetic, how could he be willing to be inferior to others?
But if you want to be in power, you have to make meritorious deeds. Cai You himself did not have the capacity to swallow up Liangshan's 300,000 troops in one go, so he had to burn incense and pray every day, hoping that Zheng Juzhong would die soon.
Now is the God-given opportunity. If we can persuade Xixia to send troops, wouldn't it be a great achievement? At that time, if we find a way to trap Zheng Juzhong, we should be able to be dignified in front of others and arrogantly seize the honor!
So after receiving the instructions from the officials, Cai You cheered up and went to the Jinting Posthouse to pay homage to Brother Cha at dawn the next day: "The King of Jin is a thousand years old. Can you take what you said at the banquet yesterday seriously?"
Brother Cha then deliberately said vaguely: "Xiao Wang Liangqian, even if he said something yesterday, it was drunken nonsense and he could not be accurate."
Cai You's heart burned with the flame of progress, but on the surface he was calm and calm. He asked Brother Cha to ask about the customs and customs of Xixia. When talking about Xixia's plight of barren land and stagnant industries, Cai You said: "Thank you for your kindness."
Now that the two countries have ceased war, it is
In a country of brothers, if brothers are in trouble, they should be aided. It just so happens that there is a giant bandit named Ximen Qing in the Song Dynasty who is causing chaos. My emperor is willing to double the annual coins and hire your troops to go to the Song Dynasty to help suppress it. In this way, I can help.
If you create a source of wealth, wouldn’t it mean that you get the best of both worlds?”
Brother Cha then waved his hand and said: "What a big deal it is to mobilize troops and horses into a foreign country? Without my brother, the emperor, to make the decision, it would never be possible!"
Cai You spoke loudly and promised all kinds of overt and covert benefits. Brother Cha finally moved and hesitated: "If you want me to help persuade the emperor to send troops, it's not impossible, but the price is..."
Hearing that the matter was clear, Cai You was overjoyed, so he took care of everything: "If King Jin Qiansui has any requests, please feel free to ask for them. I guarantee that the king and ministers of your country will be satisfied!"
Brother Cha then said: "My imperial brother is the head of a country, and nothing such as coins can impress him. If your country is really sincere and needs to cede the border land, I will send troops!"
After hearing this, Cai You stayed for a long time and then said: "This is a big matter, but I dare not make the decision. I must inform my Lord Long Live the Holy Inquisition." Saying that, he said goodbye and went to see Huizong for discussion.
The monarch and his ministers had a secret debate for two days, during which they also consulted the opinions of Yang Jian, Liang Shicheng, Wang Fu, Zheng Juzhong and other important ministers.
Only Huizong obeyed. The emperor and his ministers were united and finally made the decision, so they held a court meeting to discuss it with all the officials.
Huizong first introduced: "Now Liangshan is rampant, soldiers are surrounding Bianliang, and the prestige of the Song Dynasty has completely disappeared. But I don't know which civil and military family has the clever plan to be the Dukang who relieves my worries?" I asked three times, but no one could do it.
answer.
How embarrassing is this situation! Huizong said with a smile: "The imperial court has been raising scholars for a hundred years, but at this time of life and death, no one has contributed to this Taoist king. What use do you have?" All the ministers were ashamed and frightened, and no one dared to look up.
When Cai You saw that the heat was high, he hurriedly left his job, knelt down and said loudly: "Long live my lord, I have something to say to you!"
Huizong, still angry, nodded his hands and shouted: "Speak!" When the onlookers saw this, they were all sweating for Cai Xueshi.
Cai You, on the other hand, was unhurried and spoke eloquently: "Although the city is besieged by Liangshan, our lord's sage is on top, hundreds of officials are loyal and loyal, and soldiers and civilians are united below. Bianliang City is truly as solid as the Golden City Tangchi. But the city cannot be defended alone. It is necessary to have external aid from King Qin's division, so that we can attack from both inside and outside, defeat thieves and defeat the enemy."
Huizong said: "Isn't this nonsense? According to the military intelligence reports in the past few days, several teams of troops who finally came to visit the king were dispersed by Ximen Qing of Liangshan. Where else can we provide foreign aid?"
Cai You said: "The majesty of our Lord Heaven and his feelings for those far away made Xi Xia bow his head and bow to the east. Xia's leader successfully sent brother Di Cha to come to the Song Dynasty to offer money for peace. Now that the peace treaty has been concluded, it's time to gather at the border. The brave men and horses will return to attack Liangshan, and they will be able to defeat it with one blow!"
When all the ministers heard this, they were all surprised, and Hou Meng came out and said: "Long live my lord, although Xixia has made a peace treaty with me, the country's ferocious spirit cannot be trusted! If the border troops are transferred eastward, Xixia will definitely tear up the peace treaty." , invade our territory, there will be rebels inside and old enemies outside, and the country will never have peace!"
Liang Shicheng was a man of great righteousness. After receiving Xixia's local products, of course he wanted to speak for others. He immediately spoke out loudly: "Master Hou, Xixia admires the glory of our heavenly kingdom and has traveled thousands of miles to seek peace. You are sincere and sincere, everyone can see it. Now that the ink on the peace treaty is not dry, you falsely claim that the peace treaty will be torn up and slander your friends in this way. What kind of peace of mind do you have? Could it be that the two countries are constantly in war and war, and your lord has just been in your heart? Pleasant?"
After hearing this, Hou Meng shook his hands anxiously: "I don't mean that..."
Huizong presided over justice and said: "What Liang Aiqing said is reasonable. If you don't believe it if you doubt it, but don't doubt it if you believe it, going against it is not the way to attract people from afar! However, what Hou Qing said is also pertinent - if the border army is transferred eastward, , the border is empty, but what should we do?”
Liang Shicheng followed the trend and said: "I have a plan that can draw fuel from the bottom of the cauldron. Although the border is empty, it can also protect the Holy Heart from worries."
Huizong made a joyful announcement: "Liang Aiqing's plan is out, please offer it to me as soon as possible!"
Liang Shicheng's eyebrows were full of excitement and he said: "The Xia people value profits. As long as the officials write the certificate of credence and promise a heavy reward, please ask the Xixia army to raise troops to help me suppress the rebellion. The Xixia army is pointing at Ximenqing, Liangshan. What worries about the border?"
Huizong then exclaimed: "Great! What a great relief!"
Yang Jian flashed out: "Long live my lord, Eunuch Liang's plan is not only to draw firewood from the bottom of the cauldron, but also to drive away tigers and swallow wolves! With the troops of Xixia to attack the rebels in Liangshan, the enemy will be weak, but I am the only strong one, and I will defeat them without fighting." This is a good law!"
Huizong smiled broadly, then suddenly sighed and lowered his head in a gesture of frustration: "If we want to send troops to Xixia, we will definitely be promised heavy rewards - but Jiangnan and Shandong are all rebelling, and the imperial treasury is empty, how can we get money and silk?"
When Hou Meng heard this, he was frightened and hurriedly prostrated himself under Danqi: "Long live my lord, the Ministry of Revenue is really out of money!" His voice was so sad that he burst into tears after hearing it.
Wang Fu went out to bow down and said: "Long live my lord, I have a plan that can relieve the household's urgent needs and send troops from Xixia."
When Hou Meng heard this, he felt as if he had found a way out of a desperate situation. He didn't care about his disrespect for the king, and asked first: "But I don't know what good advice Mr. Wang has? Could it be that after you have donated food, do you still want to donate money? If In this way, the country is very lucky! The world is very lucky!" This Lord Hou was naive and thought that the families of Cai Jing, Yang Jian, Liang Shicheng and others were all extremely wealthy. No matter where they saved, a sip of money would be enough for the country to spend for several years.
This statement hit the lungs of several powerful ministers. The reason why they donated a warehouse of old grain and moldy rice a few days ago was because the situation forced them to fill the bellies of the small soldiers to protect their wealth.
Rich and noble, even if they donate rice and food, who would know the miserable situation of bleeding in their hearts? Now Hou Meng is still thinking about asking them to donate money. He is simply too poor and crazy to dream about the Chinese dream!
Hou Meng, who was dreaming about the great Chinese dream, turned a blind eye to everyone's murderous gazes, but Wang Fu's words came into his ears word for word, and they were like ice water showering his head, making him wake up with a jolt. It turned out that what Wang Fu said
yes--
"On the anniversary of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Quan Rong besieged Hao Jing, and the country was in chaos. At this time, the king of Zhou rose up and granted Qin the land of Guanxi. Qin was greedy for its benefits, so he bravely fought against the Quan Rong and marched thousands of miles north. The border troubles were finally settled.
, Qin also became
Zhou Dynasty Pingfan - How is today's situation similar to that of back then? Long live my lord, why don't you imitate the king of Zhou and seal Xixia with all the land east of Guanxi and Hedong, and seduce their hearts, and you will be able to drive away tigers and devour wolves, and finally achieve great things!"
After hearing this, Hou Meng's eyes were about to burst, and he was about to step forward to scold Wang Fu, but someone had already jumped out and shouted: "Long live my lord, Wang Fu's plan will never work!" When he looked intently, he was surprised.
This is Taiwei Su Yuanjing.
Huizong asked: "It turned out to be Su Qing - but he didn't know Wang Aiqing's plan, so why couldn't he do it?"
Su Taiwei kowtowed and said: "Long live, now Hebei has surrendered to Liangshan Ximenqing, and the northern part of the Song Dynasty has no national defense anymore, and its situation is critical! Hedong and Guanxi have become the foundation of the world! Without Hedong, Qin cannot defend it, and Bian cannot defend it either.
Capital; about the West, you can
The Qin army has recruited one hundred thousand soldiers. Since ancient times, the Qin soldiers have endured hard battles and are still enough to resist the enemy. If both places give up to the enemy, what will happen to those who abandon their wealth and want to be rich and wealthy? I hope my lord will understand Wang Fu's plan.
You must never follow the words that ruin the country!"
In agreement with Taiwei Su, a handful of them knelt down sparsely, and they all said in unison: "I wish my lord long live and see clearly!"
There was a trace of sarcasm on the corner of Wang Fu's mouth. These people are ignorant of the current affairs and block the car with their hands. It really makes people laugh!
In fact, this meeting was just a show-off, to prove that Huizong was not an arbitrary and wise king. With the support of important ministers like them, whatever happened after the meeting would be done, and the matter had already been decided.
It's just that Huizong didn't say it, Cai You didn't say it, Yang Jian didn't say it, Liang Shicheng didn't say it, only Wang Fu was eager to make progress, worked hard to be a pioneer, and dared to be the first in the world. As long as he could get promoted and make a fortune, it didn't matter if he was reviled by the world.
What? What's more, Wang Fu is convinced in his heart that he is doing the right and just thing. Even if he is criticized by thousands of people, he will not look back!
So Wang Fu said loudly: "Long live my lord! The siege of Ximenqing in Liangshan is very urgent. If the frontier troops are not transferred eastward and Bianliang is lost, what is the use of leaving the western frontier empty? If the frontier troops are transferred eastward, there will be less.
It is inevitable to repeat the mistake of Tong Taiwei that day. Only when the entire army is mobilized can we fight Ximen Qing! There was no one on the border at that time. If Xixia took advantage of the opportunity and entered, who could stop them? Therefore, the two sides
To harm the prime minister's power, I chose to take it lightly, and simply "borrowed" the land east of Guanxi and Hedong to Xixia temporarily, and deceived its soldiers to work for me. When they and Ximen Qing of Liangshan were both injured, I took advantage of the opportunity to rise up, punish the rebels, and regain the lost territory.
We can also take advantage of the victory to pursue it, wipe out Xixia, and achieve unification. By taking advantage of the situation, we will have a good opportunity for a long time. If we lose it, we will be hated forever!"
Cai You, Yang Jian, Liang Shicheng and other people all knelt down and said in unison: "Master Wang's words are in line with the will of the people and God!"
Hou Meng, Su Yuanjing and other Liao Liao several people stunned again and again: "My Lord is observed!"
Huizong slowly stood up from the dragon chair and wiped his sleeves.
At the same time, someone secretly sent the secrets of the land to Cha Ge's hands.
Ge Ge stroked these official licenses and sighed: "Ximen Qing, Ximen Qing! What I could not get in your hands, but got it in the hands of the Song Dynasty monarchs, if you know it, I do n’t know how to think? Hahahaha? Hahaha
""
I also thought: "I got these documents and received the border, which was called straightforward, and the name was justified. In the Song Dynasty's border troops, Liu Fa, the family will be fierce, and then the one will be provoked.
Naturally, the Song Dynasty had an appointment. I was in the middle of the summer, and only flattened, and I couldn't take a step in the Central Plains! Want to make our army fight with the two tigers in Ximen Qing? Hum! Where is it so easy! "
Thinking of pride, Chage Yangtian laughed. This is exactly:
Short eyes are rotten, and the machine conspiracy is shallow as greedy. But I do n’t know how the future is, and listen to the next decomposition.
