"Why do you sit and watch Agan City fall?" Zhao Zhen asked while sitting on the dragon throne looking down at several prime ministers.

Zhao Niannu disappeared for almost three months, and Zhao Zhen never expressed his opinion. This was a result of the conflict between rationality and family affection. Rationality told him that he could not ignore the country for a daughter, and family affection made him angry. So he remained silent, not only did he not ask for the extradition punishment requested by several relevant ministers, but he also did not punish his aunt and Li Wei.

As a result, many people Zheng Lang publicly criticized, including Fu Bi, felt very uncomfortable.

After asking, he looked at Di Qing.

Shortly after the Xixia and the Khitan formed a peace agreement, they suddenly sent troops to Agan City and recaptured Agan City.

Zhao Zhen did not understand military affairs, but Zheng Lang ignored his sacrifice and helped the blind man to seize Agan City, proving the importance of this place.

A large-scale dispatch of troops like this 721 is very cold and warm (III), may not know about it, but the Song Dynasty sneaked into many scouts in the territory of Xixia, and several capable scouts have now become important confidants of Mozang Epang. How could they not know about it?

Why did the two governments not react at all? After seeing this memorial, Zhao Zhen immediately called the prime minister of the two governments to question him.

Di Qing wanted to speak and wanted to stop, so he glanced at Wen Yanbo and Fu Bi.

Fu Bi stood up and explained: "Your Majesty, Di Qing was originally planning to transfer the troops in Weizhou to help, but after discussing with Yanbo, I rejected it."

“Why?”

"In the past, when Zheng Lang was in the Secretariat, he occasionally talked to me about Tubo. Whenever I was there, I would become an ally of our dynasty. However, what Zheng Lang was worried about was the future. If I was loyal to my dynasty, it does not mean that his son would continue to be loyal to our dynasty. When I was old, this is one of the reasons why I was worried. Even if I was the one who was loyal to my dynasty, I could not describe it as loyal to my dynasty. For example, my dynasty sent troops to Xixia for several years, can it be seen that he had sent Tubo soldiers to help me?"

"It makes sense, keep saying it."

"At that time, Zheng Lang had a lot of intentions to send troops to Agan City. Yuan Hao was alive and used his troops decisively. He got Agan City and then marched into Kan Valley, and then he could go to Weizhou from the west wing to form a cold and warmth (3) and he had to send troops to help. In turn, let the blind man get Agan City, and he could use Agan City to win over the Hexi Uighurs. Over the years, the strategy of winning over and dividing up has been effective. Now that the Xixia has taken Agan City and cut off the trade route, our dynasty can strictly investigate Weizhou City. The Hexi Uighurs will hate Xixia even more. This is the second reason."

Zhao Zhen said that although Zheng Lang criticized Fu Bi by name, Zhao Zhen also knew that Fu Bi had a good relationship with Zheng Lang and was one of Zheng Lang's few friends. He said that it was even more convincing.

"The blind man is the son of Zang Sila. This time, Xixia sent troops to Agan City, and soon the tiger would look at the valley. Tubo really ignored the various practices of Xixia. In addition, the Khitan and Tubo were inseparable from each other and wanted to join forces to deal with Xixia. Tubo still wanted to protect himself, and sat on the sidelines of our dynasty and the Khitan fought with Xixia and reaped the benefits of the fisherman. Now Xixia sent troops to Agan City. After Mozang Epang wanted to force the Khitan to promote his martial arts to the people again, which would be beneficial to the rule. However, it also dragged Tubo back into the war. Tubo could not care about it as before. But once our dynasty sent troops, Tubo would do a little effort and would stay out of the matter again, allowing our dynasty to start a war with Xixia again. I think it is inappropriate. But if we don't send troops to help, Xixia used to fight against the Khitan, but now we have to fight against Tubo again, which is beneficial to our dynasty."

It seems to be reasonable, but it is true?

Di Qing was confused, but Zhao Zhen was moved by Fu Bi again.

Fu Bi said again: "Not only that, according to the news sent by the spies, Wu Zang Epang will soon send troops to Kangu, and I think I will continue to ignore it. After several years of rest and rest, because Weizhou City has accumulated a lot of wealth, it is not easy for Xixia to capture Kangu, and I asked Di Qing to give up a lot of weapons to Kangu, and it is our Song Dynasty who enjoys the benefits of the fisherman."

In fact, it is a copy of the policy of the Song Dynasty that sent troops to Tubo in the past.

Most of what Fu Bi said was Wen Yanbo's opinion, but Fu Bi was right. Once the death of Ye Si Luo, the relationship between Tubo and the Song Dynasty would not be so close.

"There are still some situations that our dynasty and the Western Xia are not allowed to use troops. The new Khitan emperor ascended the throne and changed his strategy, but hatred is still there. If our dynasty sends troops, it will force the Western Xia to make further concessions to the Khitan. The Khitan hatred against the Western Xia will be further resolved due to the concessions of the Western Xia. The country is not very much allowed to use troops to the northwest, and the Liutahe River is built, Zheng Lang is developing on the South Road of Jinghu. Maybe he will go to Kuixia in the future, and they all need to use troops and money. If he is distracted from the northwest, I am worried that the troops will be insufficient."

"The south did not use any troops."

"Your Majesty, what about money? Besides, Guangdong and Guangxi cannot be said to be stable."

"Is Qianbo very nervous?"

"If you don't use troops to the northwest, you won't be nervous. Even if Zheng Lang used some money and silk in the south, Liutahe used a lot of money and silk, and the treasury could still be operated. But if you use troops to the northwest, it would be a small amount of money, and all kinds of situations will inevitably occur in the early Qingli period."

When talking about the Qingli War, Zhao Zhen frowned.

After several years of war, the Song Dynasty was withered and uprising everywhere, like a fire-fighting, it finally came down.

"I think it's not that I can't use troops in the northwest. If Xixia is not destroyed, my northwest will never be stable. Even if this brother and sister are not hidden, my dynasty warns, there will still be situations of invading and ploughing and disturbing the people. But the use of troops is not at this time. I think it will take a few years to settle in Guangdong and Guangxi, and the barbarians of the two Jingkui Gorges will be truly surrendered, and internal unity will be united. The country will have a large amount of financial accumulation. Even if we use troops in the northwest, the country will not be rushed to use the country. On the contrary, Xixia will be at a disadvantage in fighting with our dynasty because of the embarrassment. Therefore, I and Fu Bi jointly believe that they will not interfere in the battle between Xixia and Tubo." Wen Yanbo said.

Di Qing frowned. He didn't agree with this view very much. But the two rich men of the scriptures surrounded him and confusedly wrapped his head and finally surrendered.

This is his current situation. It is hard to say it, but it is hard to write it. After he served as the Privy Councilor, he almost became an invisible person under the pressure of a group of civil servants and pens.

Zhao Zhen was moved. He asked again: "What's the other side of Liuta River?"

"It has not been completed yet, but it's almost done," Fu Bi said.

"It's cold, and the civilians work hard on the construction site. If the gap is not big, the civilians will stop the construction and leave the remaining projects for construction after the arrival of next spring."

"According to the order, I will immediately let the two orders draft the edict." Wen Yanbo said.

"How about the other side of Guangdong and Guangxi Road?"

"The harvest of Guangdong and Guangxi this year is great, and the people who are moved to the people are stable. Thanks to Your Majesty for your kindness. Even if you have a mana, there will only be a incident of a mana and a mana. It will be suppressed quickly, which is not harmful. I have also received a report that although Your Majesty has exempted Guangdong and Guangxi from two taxes this year, commercial taxes, various specialties, and some workshops have gained a lot, and can earn about 10 million yuan for the court (referring to money, grain, silk, etc., the price may actually be less than 8 million yuan). After removing the expenses, you can still have more than three or four million yuan left, which is far better than in previous years. If nearly 20,000 households have once again spontaneously moved to Guangdong and Guangxi again, and spending some money to settle these immigrants, the surplus would have been a little more." Fu Bi said.

Zheng Lang has repeatedly explained the significance of immigration.

Jinghu South Road is more meaningful, and grain can be transported directly to the capital, which is difficult to achieve in Guangdong and Guangxi. However, Guangdong and Guangxi's development space is larger than Jinghu South Road, after all, the area is several times larger than Jinghu South Road.

Today, Guangdong and Guangxi Road still lacks population, with only 700,000 households, and many of them are still divided into more cultivated land. If the large Guangdong and Guangxi Road, including a large number of immigrants, is only half of the number of households that Jiangnan West Road.

Relying on the population, it is very slow to develop Guangdong and Guangxi, and it has to immigrate.

Fujian Road, Jiangnan West Road, and Liangzhe Road have strong land pressure due to dense populations, which is not conducive to rule and stability. This migration will alleviate this pressure. Moreover, the migration of a large number of Chinese households to the south is also conducive to the imperial court's rule over Guangdong and Guangxi.

No matter how Chinese is translated, there are still some differences between barbarians and Chinese households before they are truly transformed.

As prime ministers, Wen Fu and others are not as good as Pang Ji, but they will not make serious mistakes. After hearing the report from Guangdong and Guangxi, officials from Guangdong and Guangxi allocated a batch of funds to arrange these immigrants. In fact, some people were still moving to Nanyan due to poverty and did not stop. The immigration was not stopped until February next year. After autumn, they began again.

Although it took several years of great governance, there were too many poor people.

This is the limitation caused by productivity. It was the Zhao Zhen Dynasty. In other dynasties, there were more poor families.

Zhao Zhen said: "Let's do this, I will issue another edict. If the people move to Guangdong and Guangxi, or move to Jinghu South Road, the edict will not stop the governments in various places."

Since Zhao Niannu disappeared, he was unhappy and was not as diligent as before in handling government affairs, but he still had many years of experience as emperor. A large number of people evacuated the pressure of land evacuating Zheng Lang, but the main households were definitely not happy. Without the tenant farmers renting land, what should they do if they have the ability to hide the land and do not pay two taxes, it is desolate and cannot be reaped. Therefore, many complaints came from below.

Zhao Zhen knew the reason for the complaint. When Zheng Lang was the prime minister, his favorite thing was to analyze these things with him and talk about the distribution of interests.

Therefore, he complained a lot and ignored him.

But after careful observation, he heard another thing: the exploitation of customer tenants by many regions in the south is gradually relaxing. Some of the company's original owners are fierce, and one acre of land can collect more rent for customers with one stone, but now it is gradually decreasing.

This is what Zhao Zhen is happy to see.

The main household is what Zheng Lang said about the elite, the world, but the customers are also human beings. If the tenant farmers cannot survive, it will be very terrible when they break out. Once the pine is loose, they can survive, and the tenant farmers will not have much resentment and the country will become more stable.

"Here." Wen Fu and the others answered at the same time.

"There is no need to transfer the remaining money and silk from Guangdong and Guangxi to the capital, and then transfer it to Tanzhou. It seems that the money and silk are not enough there, and it will save some transportation costs for the court."

"Here," the two answered again, knowing in their hearts that although Zheng Lang left the capital, his status in the emperor's heart was still very high. However, Zheng Lang had two years to plant in Hunan, and Kuixia Road, which had a headache in the future, may be six or seven years, or even longer, and neither of them could eat Zheng Lang's taste.

"How about the other side of Jinghu South Road?"

"Your Majesty, the Xiaximan Incident has interrupted some of Zheng Lang's arrangements, but Zheng Lang and Xiaximan have made another vow to build a city, one fort and two forts in Ximan. There are still some arrangements, and Ximan is not worthy of harm."

"Fuqing, why did Ximan change?"

Fu Bi told Xiaxi Man about the cause and effect.

"Song Shouxin, did Jia Shixiong make a mistake?"

"In my opinion, although Peng Shixi was not strong in his rebelliousness, he had a rebelliousness. Before the court's troops arrived, Peng Shixi once gathered the barbarians to surround Chenzhou City and clang the city of the city. However, the approach of guarding Jia and the other two was a little too hasty."

"Ximan is an important area on the border, and the northeast is Meishanman. It is related to the success or failure of the Jinghu South Road management. Let me think about it. In this way, Peng Siyong will be the governor of Chenzhou. Their surnames are Peng, so the barbarians will be more convinced."

"Here."

Peng Siyong's trip to Chenzhou also means that Song and Jia had made mistakes and were demoted. This was not necessary for Zhao Zhen to specifically ask about it, and it was the matter of the Secretariat.

"Come Zhao Yan and Guo Shenxi." Zhao Zhen said to the eunuch beside him.

The eunuch went to the Censorate to bring Zhao and Guo and the others up.

Zhao Zhen let them fall behind and said, "Zhao Qing, Guo Qing, look at the sky outside."

The two turned their heads and looked at the outside of the hall. The weather outside the hall was gloomy and the north wind was howling, and they looked at Zhao Zhen in confusion.

"It seems that the sky is about to fall." Zhao Zhen said quietly, then looked at Wen Yanbo and Fu Bi, and said, "Wenqing, Fuqing, you have daughters, do you also have a daughter?"

Both of them have daughters, but they are both married.

But neither of them dared to answer, and knew what Zhao Zhen meant.

Everyone has children. As parents, they will like their children and want their children to live a good life. It is originally a family matter. No matter how the royal family and the Li family handle it, Zhao Niannu will not force them to run away from home. However, the ministers do not know the world and the earth. They not only care about the emperor's private life, but also the private life of the harem. The emperor's daughter's private life is not only care about, but also handed over one impeachment document after another.

If Zhao Niannu really disrespects his master, is lawless, and is favored by others, it would be fine. But after interrogation, it is not. Zhao Niannu has always been a well-behaved daughter-in-law in the Li family, and everything is something that happens only when there is an evil mother-in-law.

This time, the ministers made a mistake, a huge mistake because of their rashness.

A very obedient princess who has not yet grown up has been forced by a bad mother-in-law and minister to stay home and the palace cannot return, and has to run away from home, and life and death are unknown.

Although Zheng Lang wrote several articles in a row and mobilized a lot of people, it was a bit too much, but it could not be said that Zheng Lang's statement was unreasonable.

I want to impeach, but I will investigate it first.

The family law of the ancestors allowed the ministers to hear the news, but they targeted officials, even the emperor. If an official cannot pass this barrier, what official can he be? If the emperor cannot pass this barrier, the emperor will not do well. However, it is not to let the ministers hear the news, but it is used on a teenage girl.

Zhao and Guo and the others bowed down together and said, "I am guilty."

"I see you honestly, and I will not object to your advice, but you must know the importance of the country. Governing the country is not governed by alarmist words. In the past, Wei Zheng was loyal and upright and famous for his reputation for being loyal and upright, but how many times did he give advice not go away? What is the abuse of the current situation? Do you have a clear distinction?"

Zhao and Guo made them even more ashamed.

"I have always encouraged ministers to give advice, but I have never seen the ministers who are so sensible and distinguish the current problems like Wei Zheng." After saying that, Zhao Zhen sighed quietly and said softly: "Some officials were drawn from Guangdong and Guangxi Road on Jinghu South Road. There are just a few officials in Guangdong and Guangxi who have made up for the vacancies. Zhao Qing, you should be appointed as the magistrate of Shaozhou, and Guo Qing, you should be appointed as the magistrate of Rongzhou, and see how the officials of Guangdong and Guangxi do practical things."

This is the idea of ​​Cheng and Zhenglang.

In the past, the imperial court demoted officials who made serious mistakes to Guangdong and Guangxi.

Zheng Lang was able to govern Guangdong and Guangxi, so he could not allow this situation to happen. But where would the officials who made mistakes, especially those who were serious, be demoted? So Zheng Lang offered suggestions and still demoted them. What should he do? Not only were he not allowed to kill scholars and officials, but he was not allowed to punish them. Therefore, he was demoted to a prefecture for misdemeanors. He could be demoted to Lingnan for major private crimes, but he could not serve as the magistrate of the prefecture, and he was the deputy officer of each military officer, chief magistrate, county magistrate, etc., so that these officials could not lead the southern officials to ruin the administration of the government, and also allowed the prefectures and counties of each prefecture and county magistrate to supervise these officials who made mistakes.

Zhao Guo was not a private crime, but just an inappropriate advice, so he was kind and demoted to a verdict.

But with the status of the two, such a position is beyond words.
