As he said that, Zheng Lang took out a brocade box, opened it, took out a thick book, and said, "This is the strategy I wrote. [*you]"

Zhao Zhen took it and opened the book to read it.

At the beginning, we talked about miasma. If we want to control the south, we cannot overcome the hurdles.

The main causes of miasma are animals and plants, especially animals' corpses after death. In addition, the tropical temperature is too high, the ground is rainy, the climate is humid, and the toxic rotten gas cannot evaporate and settles on the surface of the earth. People pass by it and inhaling poisonous gas causes disease or death.

There is another situation where there are many mosquitoes in the south. They live in this vicious environment and carry a large number of falciparum bacteria. Often, when a large group of falciparum is falciparum, it is like a mass of death. People are bitten by them and large-scale malaria occurs. Because of their backward understanding, people also call it miasma. They even once called the altitude sickness on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in Tubo.

The latter is the majority. Guo Kui attacked Jiaozhi in the south. Although he beat Jiaozhi honestly, many soldiers died. It was because he was hit by the miasma that later, that is, malaria caused by mosquito bites. But the former cannot be ignored. In addition to malaria miasma, there are indeed various strange miasma. According to the season, green grass miasma in spring, yellow plum miasma in summer, new grass miasma in autumn, and yellow grass miasma in winter. According to the symptoms, there are also cold miasma, hot miasma, mute miasma, etc. Osmanthus miasma and chrysanthemum miasma named after plants, and naughty miasma, peacock miasma, earthworm miasma, duck worm miasma, wasp miasma, etc., as well as miasma fields, mosandra, water miasma, etc.

When the miasma occurs, there are two shapes: some are as bright as clouds, some are as thick fog, and some are as odor as fishy winds, or strange fragrances. These abnormal situations are all miasma. The most terrible thing is the miasma mother. When she first rises, she is as bright as golden light in the forest, and shoots into the air, then falls down, and becomes a small projectile, gradually drifting like a wheel-like burst. The five colors are everywhere and the fragrance is imposing. This miasma mostly contains huge poisons. People suffer from it at a very low level of illness and death.

Zheng Lang sorted out these miasma distribution areas and various shapes one by one, gathered them into a map, and marked some unknown areas, mainly from reports from officials, as well as information collected from doctors, charlatans and witch doctors who treated miasma some time ago. Some of them were sent back by scouts from the secret camp. Some of them were able to confirm the distribution, while others could not be confirmed. It was too wide. From Fujian to Jiangxi to southern Sichuan, it was all southward.

The method of defense for local people is to eat and drink. One is to be healthy and able to withstand the cold. Secondly, try to live in high places when resting at night without untiing your clothes. Close the door tightly, there are various legends, but it is actually scientific and reasonable. Reduce mosquito bites and eliminate the source of malaria.

Either drinking more herbal tea is probably not the recipe of Wanglaoji. It has the same properties, nourishing the stomach and intestines, taking more coix seeds, lightening the body and squeezing betel nuts, or chewing more betel nuts can also be afraid of miasma. Or burning more realgar atractylodes and other atractylodes to eliminate the proportion of toxic toxic gases in the air. Later, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, soldiers smoked more, and the principle was one nature, using the gas burned from tobacco leaves to drive away harmful gases around them and eliminate the invasion of miasma.

The reason for miasma is that the humid and stuffy climate in the south is caused by a very strange one. The miasma area is almost composed of pure stones, with sparse trees and many other animals. Some venomous snakes and poisonous phlegm and arrow feces are spread among them. Even rivers and streams are not the normal color, mostly green or fishy red, and occasionally emit a fishy smell. Therefore, Zheng Lang deliberately wrote about the ability of trees to absorb poisonous gas in this book.

It is marked, but it is impossible to green one by one in all miasma distribution areas.

The main treatment method is later. First, it is burning. In severe areas, the soil is avoided from the onset of miasma. After plowing, the soil is covered with Atractylodes and other substances on the surface to burn it. Or sprinkle lime according to the pH, or sprinkle sulfuric acid at all costs to change the properties of the soil and weaken the miasma.

The second is to ward off mosquitoes. The latter is more harmful.

Zheng Lang did not go to Lingnan, and although he marked a large area of ​​miasma, only a few wrote about the treatment measures.

In fact, it is because human activities are backward and medical technology. The range of human activities is expanded, the ** and the ** and the miasma are automatically eliminated. For example, the southern part of Yangshuo was the most famous scenic spot in China later, but it was a famous killing scene in the Song Dynasty. (Let's go after reading novels.)

There are also various other methods of treating miasma. After being sorted out by Guizhou officials, they were sent to the Zhongshu. Zheng Lang sorted out one by one based on his later knowledge, removed the dregs of treatment methods one by one, leaving some essence, reorganized them and placed them in this booklet.

It can be said that the first half of this book focuses on the Song Dynasty's understanding of miasma, from distribution to governance and treatment.

The second part is about the specialties of each state and how to use them. It is not only in Guangdong and Guangxi, but also in the western part of Jinghu and the western part of the two routes of Jinghu, Kuizhou to southern Sichuan, Xiazhou and other places beyond the reach of the imperial court. But it also wrote about many questions, because Zheng Lang did not go to investigate in person, so it could not be confirmed.

The third part is the future concept, the main subject is the Tanzhou area and the Yushui River Basin, and the second is the re-development of the Xiuling Canal.

The court was not interested in Guangdong and Guangxi, too far away, and it was not profitable. Although the sea ships were mature, the sea ships were traveling according to the monsoon, once a year, or forced to use large oars, would inevitably hire many sailors, mainly for transporting grain, which was not cost-effective. But we can change our ideas. What if we were to transport gold, silver and cloth? Don’t underestimate the textile technology of the barbarians in the south, the cloth on the left and right rivers (Zhuang brocade) and the cotton cloth that was better than the Central Plains, the silk lily of Hainan, and the gorgeous flowers of the lily people in the capital. Even the ladies and ladies in the capital were attracted by it. The blue printed cloth of the Yao people, etc., are not inferior to the famous brand textiles in the Central Plains. It is just because no one organized them, and the tribes were scattered and not in scale, making their name not obvious.

This is just textiles, porcelain, fragrance, wax, rice, etc. There are some fist products in various regions that can be proven.

Furthermore, the Lingqu canal will inevitably be close once it expands, so Lingnan will no longer be alone outside the ridge. The same is true in the Kuizhou area. Although there is no Lingqu canal or the sea, with black gunpowder, it is a pity that yellow gunpowder is still a laboratory product. Even if there is no yellow gunpowder, the correct use of black gunpowder will reduce the difficulty of digging the road.

Zhao Zhen slowly read this book, whether it was an encyclopedia or a very long memorial, and his heart was mixed.

Yanchen said that Zheng Lang would not do anything without saying anything. Zhao Zhen knew in his heart that the simplest one was to present memorials that could not be decided at least by more than two-thirds less than before. This was the credit of the ministers of the two prefectures. Moreover, the country's great governance requires Zheng Lang to spend a lot of energy. How difficult is it to actually take time to write this extremely long six-way development plan?

But then he smiled bitterly again.

Plan is a plan. If it is true as Zheng Lang wrote, more than one-third of the Song Dynasty’s lagging areas will advance together. What earth-shaking changes will the Song Dynasty take?

However, this huge plan seems to be impossible to find any other minister to achieve except Zheng Lang who can go down to implement it.

After reading for a long time, I had to read it slowly. I couldn't finish it for the time being, so I closed the book and said, "Zheng Qing, in this way, I must use my troops."

A simple truth: if you want to develop Tanzhou, you must first move troops against the Meishan barbarians. Otherwise, the Meishan barbarians often go down the mountain to become bandits. How to develop? If you want to develop the Kuizhou Road, you must take back the rights of the major barbarian chiefs and you must also use troops.

Zheng Lang said slowly: "Your Majesty, a scout from the secret camp entered Kuizhou Road in the name of a merchant, but asked a local man of a tyrant to take all his goods as sheep, snatched all his goods, regardless of the seal of the government. He captured him as a slave. After receiving the news, he asked his government to redeem him with a large sum of money and worked for several months. He was tortured and dying, almost died. These barbarians despised this from the court, so the barbarians often rebelled in recent years. In order to develop the Kuizhou plan, I thought that they should also use troops appropriately to shock him. But Your Majesty does not have to worry. I will capture the big and let the small, and suppress some vicious barbarians by force, and let the other rich masters go one by one. There is no need to do too many troops. In fact, the local barbarians are loose in their organization and backward weapons. It is only based on the complex terrain. If the spy spys clearly, it is not difficult to conquer them."

"Zheng Qing, the south is too dangerous, and a gentleman will not stand under a dangerous wall." Even when he saw this encyclopedia, Zhao Zhen was reluctant to leave. Although life is not divided, people's lives are not divided. [*you] really do not distinguish between them? Wang Meng died in front, and Qin in the back was in chaos. In the end, Fu Jian died, and the powerful Former Qin was dismembered. Zhang Zhong was heartbroken for a while, and it was not related to the pain. If Zheng Lang died, it would be in chaos, and the whole thing would be in chaos. Moreover, so many areas are miasma areas, and there are many areas that are not clear. After Zhao Zhen read it just now, it was shocking. Zheng Lang had been born and died for the Song Dynasty in recent years, which was enough, enough. Thinking of Zheng Lang's various things, Zhao Zhen was grateful and held Zheng Lang's hand tightly.

But Zhao Zhen made a mistake. With Zheng Lang's nature, the more you treat him like this, the more he will be rewarded. It is not persuasion, but driving Zheng Lang to the south. Zheng Lang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, when I was a young man, I had very small ambitions. I just wanted to pass the exam for a good fortune, collect some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and live a wealthy and comfortable life. Until Taipingzhou and Hangzhou, I was not very ambitious. If I could help Your Majesty, I would do my best to help. I would not help you.

, I didn't force it. Then I entered the northwest and saw so many soldiers who were in charge of His Majesty, who were going to do one after another for His Majesty, who were willing to sacrifice to serve His Majesty, and who served the world, I felt ashamed. I was not old enough, so let me do something for His Majesty. Although the Master said that a gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall, there was no need to put himself in a dangerous place, but he also said that a gentleman would kill himself for righteousness. For the sake of His Majesty, how dare I deliberately pity this half-lived life for the sake of His Majesty?"

In fact, if history is not changed, there is a similar answer in history, which is also a case of Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty. Zhang Dun and Su Dongpo are good friends, and they are traveling in Xianyoutan in Fengxiang Mansion. Under Xianyoutan is a cliff with a thousand-foot cliff. There is only a cross-border block leading to the other side. Zhang Dun stretched out his hand and said, Zizhan was in succession, Su Dongpo said to cherish life, so let it go. Zhang Dun laughed and walked over, with a line of big words under the title. Zhang Dun and Su Shi visited here. The two passed by another forest again. When they heard someone shouting that the tiger was coming, there were still many tigers in the Song Dynasty. The two of them came forward with alcohol, but when they really encountered a tiger, Su Dongpo fled. Zhang Dun laughed again, borrowed a gong and knocked on the rocks. As a result, it was not the person who ran away, but the tiger.

Su Dongpo said, "You don't care about your own life, how can you love other people's lives? The two of you have become big names, and this period of history will be revealed and become evidence of the attack on Zhang Dun."

Now there is no need to argue anymore. Zheng Lang's doctrine of meanness and benevolence and righteousness talks more about things. It is not wrong to love oneself, but it is appropriate to love oneself too much, and to love oneself too much like most civil officials of the Song Dynasty. When the enemy comes, they either abandon the city or flee or surrender. How can the country be so good? Of course, it is not good to ignore one's own safety too much. This is the original meaning of the Master.

Zheng Lang spoke very gentle and sincerely. I only wanted to live a good life since I was a child. Ambition was only available when I grew up. Will the ministers say this? It is also a humble word. If I really don’t have great ambitions, I would not have practiced Confucianism and various changes in Jiangnan. However, Zheng Lang’s ambition at that time was definitely not as good as that at this time.

Zhao Zhen just sighed.

In fact, Zheng Lang was also very grateful. It was Zhang Dun. The Meishan Barbarians surrendered to the Song Dynasty. Zhang Dun went to surrender, but the two envoys did not do it well. By the way, they comforted the barbarian women, but the surrender was not successful and sent two heads. Zhang Dun was furious. The people in the Northern Song Dynasty were still open, and people's concept of chastity was far less important than that in the future. Even if they were not to comfort the women, they would not die. Who was he? In anger, he used troops to the Meishan Barbarians. This battle was not yet well fought for various reasons, but a Taiping Xiangshui was fought. However, when the war began, both Wang Anshi and Song Shenzong were shocked and did not believe that Zhang Dun actually started fighting.

It is really hard to fight, it is hard to fight. If the country loses, the country will not bear it. The barbarians are even more popular and they will win. The barbarians flee to the mountains. Now they say that the army is three major disciplines and eight points of attention. That is impossible. Even if the Yue family army is good, it will inevitably cause some burning, killing, looting and plundering. At most, they will restrict their subordinates from killing women, children, and young. The military discipline is already very good, so the barbarians become more poor and revenge is even more crazier.

Everyone knows that this is not a solution for these jailed areas, but because of this, the monarchs and ministers of the court have always been hesitant. Zhao Zhen was not a very brave emperor. He only cared about his own safety and did not question the feasibility of expedition. How much trust did he put in?

Zheng Lang used this effort to do so. Zhao Zhen did not stop him anymore. So he summoned the ministers of the two prefectures and handed the memorial to the ministers to read.

In fact, it is impossible to finish one by one.

It's too long, with a total of more than 200,000 words, and there are more than 30 related maps and design drawings. Just look at it at a rough time, and think about it while you are looking at it, it will take at least one day.

The purpose of Zhao Zhen to show everyone is to let the ministers learn the spirit of Zheng Lang.

The news spread, and the evil in the south kept coming, so Zheng Lang and his party could almost no one stop him.

Bao Zheng submitted a memorial in Hebei, impeaching Wang Juzheng. He said that Wang Juzheng was also a deputy to the two governments, but was demoted because of his incompetence. He was the chief censor at the time and was blindly asked for shelter. The disaster in Hebei was caused by the destruction of water and soil. The rebellion of the barbarians in the south was that the court had few troops stationed in the court. The policy mistakes were related to what was the relationship with the Secretary of the Central Secretariat. He arbitrarily added the disaster to the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, first demoted Wen Yanbo from the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, and then Zheng Lang was released in Lingnan. The two prime ministers were all conscientious and ruling. What was Wang Juzheng's intention?

The reason for this report was that one was the grudges of Bao Wang, and the other was that Zheng Lang had always taken good care of Bao Zheng, and the third was that Bao Zheng also thought about the country. Where is Lingnan? How could a dignified prime minister go to Lingnan? Because he was not in the court, he didn't know the inside story, so he pushed the blame to Wang Juzheng.

Wang Juzheng could not make a sound yet.

Some other ministers also opposed it, Fu Bi, Wang Yaochen, Zhang Fangping, Pang Ji and others, and they also wrote letters to talk about the matter, saying that Zheng Lang could not go to Lingnan.

This example is not well opened. From now on, a boss from the two governments will be placed in Lingnan at any time. Where is Lingnan? A killing field, a large killing field, a small killing field. Do you want to restore the stories of famous ministers such as Kou Zhun and Li Di in the late Zhenzong?

Zhang Yaozuo knew Luoyang, and he was in the Sansi. Zheng Lang and Wen Yanbo took care of the Sansi for him. There was no mistake. When he arrived in Luoyang, Luoyang was too big and had limited ability, and many problems occurred. So Zhao Zhen transferred Wu Yu to Luoyang as the second-in-command to take care of him. Zhang Yaozuo also felt that he respected Wu Yu very much. Old Wu, you have the ability, and you will work harder. What should Wu Yu do? Under Wu Yu's governance, Luoyang once again has political harmony. In short, this is a very interesting person. He is not wronged to be greedy for wealth, but how much harm does he have? As for it?

I am still very grateful to Zheng Lang. I wrote a letter saying that Lingnan was just a small barbarian rebellion and sent a detached general to suppress it. Why use a dignified prime minister?

He had a kind heart, but said the wrong thing. Jiang Xie, Yang Ting, Yu Jing, Sun Mian and others were not small generals.

Apart from the fact that a few ministers remained silent, most of them wrote letters to oppose, demanding that the court leave Zheng Lang. Zhang Fangping said directly that even if the position of prime minister cannot be held for too long, he can go to the Three Jings (Xijing, Nanjing, Beijing) to make a magistrate. Even if there is any mistake, he is still the magistrate of the big states such as Qingzhou. How can he travel to Lingnan?

Zheng Lang smiled bitterly when he saw so many memorials. In fact, if it is used properly, it is a good reflection. Whether it is the Song Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, a pseudo-democratic system has almost appeared under the rush of civil officials. It seems very good, but don’t forget that this is the feudal era.

It seems that there is a supervision system, but the country has not been able to implement a stable policy under the attack of civil officials. Just like the metaphor that Zheng Lang made when he was a teenager, it is best to go straight from Zhengzhou to Kaifeng. If it is impossible to go straight in execution, it will definitely take some detours and may go around to Mengzhou. It may go around to Caizhou, but as long as you continue, you will definitely reach Kaifeng City. I am afraid that when I arrive in Mengzhou, someone will pull the car to Caizhou. When I arrive in Caizhou, I will be pulled back to Mengzhou. If a solid carriage will be pulled back to Mengzhou, it will eventually be broken.

The wise rulers, such as Zhao Kuangyin and Li Shimin, would not have any problems at all. Again, Zhao Zhen, Yongzheng and Qianlong, turned the contradiction into small groups instead of large groups. The failure of the Qingli New Deal, later generations sighed, but did not notice the hollowness of Fan Zhongyan's policy and the harm to the position of the emperor. But again, it was Song Shenzong, who turned into two groups. It was terrible. In the last days, Li Longji and Song Huizong handed over the regime to one person in his later years.

The latter two are not the way to use people. However, civil officials do not know how to advance or retreat. As long as you don’t like it, they will be punished unscrupulously. Because Zhao Zhen treats ministers well, it is becoming more and more serious. Zhao Zhen uses his skills to prevent it from worsening. Once Zhao Zhen dies, the later generations lack Zhao Zhen’s skills, these problems will surface one by one, and the seriousness is far greater than the three redundant things in the Song Dynasty!

But in these memorials, how many civil officials have reflected on it?

The autumn harvest is over.

Zheng Lang had a duty. His home was not too far from the palace. He mostly walked back to exercise.

A beautiful woman stopped him and did not move him.

After several years in the capital, the people liked to point fingers at first. So when they went out, they wore Luo more and stayed for a long time. The people used to it and slowly took down the Luo curtain. It was probably because Wu Yi was anxious. My daughter came to the capital of the Song Dynasty. No good family came to the door to propose marriage, so she simply asked her daughter to look at people with her true face. It was not worthy of the achievements, and the family could not care about the good family that Wu Yi was worthy of. There was no one to worry about? No one was worried about the second marriage in the Northern Song Dynasty. Maybe she could not care about the queen crown on her head?

There are many frivolous disciples, because they are more beautiful and pursued by others. However, both the father and daughter of Wuyishan look down on him and are still exhausted. Besides, Li Yuanhao is not the case, he is also a hero. How many young men can compare with Li Yuanhao? Can ordinary vulgar sons fall into the eyes of Wuyi?

The two met several times, and Zheng Lang implicitly refused. Normal people dare not marry her home as their wife, but dare to take her home as their concubine? I guess when I did it, several friends could come to their homes to have a heart-to-heart talk with him, and those who opposed it were in the car and fight.

Seeing that Wuyi's family came over, Zheng Lang wanted to hide, but Wuyi's family ignored him, blocked him directly, and then whispered: "I have been in the capital for several years."

Some people stared at them curiously from a distance, so Zheng Lang had to haha ​​and said, "Yes."

"You brought our father and daughter to your country. I am not young." I am not old in my early twenties. Who said that the people are getting married early? Unremoved, and said, "Don't you care about me?"

How to manage it? When I was planning, I didn’t consider whether I could get married without moving. Zheng Lang spread his hands and said, “What should I do if I asked me to do?”

"You are the only one who cares."

Zheng Lang was helpless without being lazy in Yishi, and he was not very convenient to speak at this time.

"You are going to Lingnan?"

“It’s possible.”

"for how long?"

“It could be several years.”

"This is the ropa embroidered by me." Wuyishi knew the tact and quickly handed the ropa to Zheng Lang. Zheng Lang did not dare to refuse, for fear that the people would see it, so he put the ropa in his sleeve with faster movements. Wuyishi left, and the people did not see their small movements. Seeing the two brief answers, they did not doubt them, and then looked elsewhere. After walking for a while, Zheng Lang opened the embroidered handkerchief, embroidered with a lonely wild goose, looking at the sky with resentment. This is meaningful, the geese are the most loyal, so the ancients used geese as one of the important betrothal gifts. If not, geese are often replaced. Then there is a line of small characters, which is Li Yu's "Qingpingle":

Don’t be in the middle of spring, your heart is broken. The plum blossoms are like snow, and they are still full of all the flowers.

The geese come and the news is untrue, and the dream is hard to come back from a long way. The separation and hatred are just like spring grass, and they will be reborn even further.

It cannot be understood based on the meaning of the original text. After reading it, Zheng Lang shook his head. No, he could see if he could think of a way for this woman to find a good family. He could not let her talk about her feelings to herself sooner or later.

Zheng Lang was a little moved after seeing it.

But in the distance, Wu Yishi's mouth suddenly showed a cunning smile.

Zheng Langnan and his party were destined to be very exciting. Not relocating his family gave him a headache, and someone even gave him a headache even more.
