Zhang Guangen looked bitter and said, "Since that's the case, I can only try hard."

"Yes, we should work together to help the emperor in order to win a peaceful rule." Han Zhong Youran said: "The Qin King Xu Zi first submitted another memorial. Please reduce the tax on Fujian Road by 30%. I have ordered people to refute it in the name of the Political Affairs Hall."

Zhang Guangen made a slight attempt and said, "The Prime Minister seems to have given him some face to the Prince of Kaifu?"

Han Zhong sneered: "I have some interactions with the King of Qin, but I am just working with each other. Both governments and officials hope that he can sit in the southeast and stabilize the overall situation. He wants Fujian Road, the officials and the two governments to give it to them. Even, he stretched his hands to Jiangnan West Road and Jinghu South Road, and we could hold back. Anyway, he is a surname of Xu, and this dynasty has not yet rebelled... We hope that he will stabilize the place and provide taxes and grains to the north. Instead, he will jump out to reduce taxes and taxes as soon as possible. Since that is the case, what's the point of giving him the title of King of Qin and opening a mansion for him?"

Taxation is really the top priority in the eyes of the important officials of the two governments, and it is the most important thing that cannot be ignored.

This is true. The taxes to the center of the world are like blood vessels, thick and thin. These blood vessels support the center of the Great Wei Dynasty. The center uses this to support officials to support the mind, and uses this to support soldiers and arms.

If taxes are cut off, it doesn’t matter whether Fujian Road is chaotic or flat.

Zhang Guangen smiled bitterly. He was speechless when a country was in power.

Han Zhong's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and he said in a resolute tone: "If the King of Qin has another trouble, he will scold him. If he wants to make trouble, he will make him shameless. If he really wants to pile up picks, he will ask him to go back to the Dongfan. He will reach out on Fujian Road and cut him off. Even if we squeeze, we will squeeze out about ten troops to Fujian Road. Reducing taxes will not be feasible!"

At this time, a call for Lang Wei to change his defense came not far away. Han Zhong glanced coldly for a few seconds, turned around and entered the Political Affairs Hall.

Li Enmao led a few Langwei and the imperial guards out of the capital. The emperor took Deng as the doctor's order and sent Chen Changde to the front to urge the war. This series of actions was naturally caused by no cause.

Li Enmao is Han Zhong's man. If Li Enmao does not leave the capital, the emperor dares not let go of a real victory or defeat. If there is a change ahead and there are police in the capital, will the emperor rely on Li Enmao to protect his safety?

Last year, when the capital was in trouble, Li Enmao was completely and firmly stood on Han Zhong's side.

If Han Zhong presided over the capital's defense and all the imperial guards, if there was another incident, would Han Zhong and the Korean Duke dare not join forces to preside over the destruction and establishment in the name of the two prefectures and the Grand Master?

The emperor lost his morality, resulting in frequent disasters, military failures, political affairs were not cultivated, bandits emerged, the world was full of chaos, and there were no children. King Zhao made such a big ugly again, and the image of the entire King of Zhao lineage was a big drop. If Han Zhong really had any evil intentions, which minister would dare to risk the clan punishment to protect the emperor?

The Zhao family and the emperor were both poor in their image, and there were not many supporters in the royal family. Last year, the Zhao family planned to frame the younger generation of the same clan. After this incident spread, it made the Zhao family's family the target of public criticism.

There are very few supporters in the royal family. The throne of the emperor seems to be stable, but in fact it is like sitting on an active volcano.

If Li Enmao leaves the capital, if Li Guorui and Yue Zhi do not obey orders, Li Enmao will replace Yue Zhi as the commander. Li Guorui's recruitment was a resigned from the Privy Councilor who was loyal to the emperor.

He Yao is in charge.

He Qiong was a man from Liu Zhiyuan. After the coup, he was released as Zhiguide Mansion. He was also the confidant minister of the emperor's Xinzhong. Jian was promoted all the way to Emperor Xinxin. If Li Guorui and Yue Zhi were dismissed, Li Enmao could lead the right imperial guards led by Yue Zhi. The main force and commander of the middle line were not at ease, so the emperor would not be able to hand over the power of others. Only by releasing He Qiong as the army to recruit and commander the middle line, the emperor could feel relieved.

This is also a check and balance between each other. When Li Enmao went out, Han Zhong had no military generals and corresponding troops in the capital. When Li Enmao led his troops, the capital was controlled by the emperor, and the commander of the army had to be replaced by someone the emperor wanted. Both sides checked and balanced each other and were wary of each other, so that they could be at ease with each other.

"My husband, the meal has been set up." In the Political Affairs Hall, a large group of officials in blue robes and blue robes were already standing under the eaves of the corridor. Many officials and deputy envoys of the Privy Councilors had already sat in the hall. There was a small table in front of each of them, with food and a small pot of wine. It was just a meal at the office, but no one could drink.

The dine-in rules require waiting for the prime minister to move his chopsticks, so everyone is waiting.

When Han Zhong sat down, he saw mutton soup, roasted lamb legs, fried lamb white intestines, fermented black bean chicken, fried white chicken nuggets, salt and wine waist, roasted duck, pickled goose palms, steamed deer tail and other meat dishes. Sometimes several kinds of vegetables were planted in a glass greenhouse and a fire pit in the suburbs of Yanjing. It looked clear and green, which was very attractive.

"It's all these kinds of vegetables, so I'll use this." Han Zhong pointed to the lamb, chickens, ducks, etc., and said, "Take it down and give it to the clerks."

"Thank you, my husband."

Dining in is not something that can’t be enjoyed by the priest, and there are even many stories of gods and monsters. But every day, the priests’ tables can’t be eaten? Of course, it’s a tradition to share food for the officials who are in the political affairs hall.

Han Zhong took the lead, and the rest of the slaughter took the lead and picked some of the food in front of him to give him some rewards.

Zhang Guangen sighed softly. When Xu Xia Shang was in the past, the old prime minister was very frugal, so the number of dishes was only one-third or even one-quarter of the dishes, only two or three plates of dishes. The priests could eat enough for themselves. Of course, there was no need to reward the officials in the hall. Although there was no way to invite people to buy people's hearts, in Zhang Guangen's opinion, the image of the old prime minister in the eyes of the officials in the hall was not necessarily worse than Han Zhong.

"Everyone, please." The priests are all gentlemen. Gentlemen should pay attention to food and not speak. Han Zhong came at the end, but he took the chopsticks first. His mood seemed quite good. The emperor's defense was left to him. The disobedient Qin King beat him back. Everyone was trying their best to provide the center, and no local officials dared to fight with the center... After the execution of Liu Zhiyuan last year, Han Zhong's power actually increased greatly. The center and local officials were respectful to Han Zhong, and they were no exception.

In the Political Affairs Hall, many great figures in purple began to pick up the bowls and chopsticks. Everyone could only hear the sound of jingling bowls and spoons colliding, and the servants tiptoed around the lobby. This lobby was the core of the huge empire of the Great Wei Dynasty. Even the inner east gate hall where the emperor met people in daily life, its important points were not as important as this Political Affairs Hall that had existed for more than 200 years.

Incense was lit in the bronze crane in the hall, and the fragrance was filled with fragrance. Outside the courtyard, the officials of the three departments, six ministries, and various temples, either came in person or sent officials to wait here. But at this time, when the priests were having their meals, whether they were the officials behind the Wufang Hall, the imperial edicts in the Sherenyuan, or the ministers waiting to be passed down to see them.

, Officials, everyone held their breath and waited for the prime ministers to pass on their visits after they finished their meal.

At this time, the entire huge empire seemed to have stopped.

No matter how important it is, it cannot break the tranquility here. However, while everyone is waiting, the sound of horse hooves coming from a distance is heard.

The crisp sound of horse hooves shattered the tranquility in the imperial city and also broke the peace inside and outside the political affairs hall.

"It's the doctor Chen Changde, what is he doing?"

"It's already a nomination order."

"I can't see it yet. I hold the red flag in my hand. I'm going to Yuguan to urge the war."

"The gold medal retreat and the red flag urged the war. This is the rule that Taizu set since the beginning of the country."

"Previously, the Privy Councilor Li Qiushi, the Minister of War Shi An and others were ordered to carry the red flag to urge the battle. Before that, they used the high rank of the eunuchs and then the court officials. Now they sent the Grand Marshal to send troops, and then sent the confidant general in front of the emperor to carry the red flag to come out. The urge was quite obvious."

"I will be outside, and the emperor will not accept the order of the emperor. It seems that this is unstoppable."

"Isn't there a general to control the mind of our ancestors?"

The last words caused a slight ridicule... The General Chengzhongyu was proposed by Emperor Xuanzong, and then the generals went to the Laoha River and Yushui area to defeat the Khitan and Jurchen alliance at that time. The deployment of the Great Wei outside the pass collapsed. The so-called General Chengzhongyu naturally became a huge joke.

When Zi can’t even reach the corner of Xuanzong’s robe today, will he talk about his control?

"The court really couldn't hold on..." The person who spoke was from Sansi. When he shook his head and sighed, he also looked sighing.

"I hope it is my Great Wei who won the victory!" Chen Changde had already raised the red flag and left under the protection of many cavalry. He went to the east gate of Yanjing, from there, leaving the city directly through Jizhou, to Pingzhou, Yuguan, and directly in front of the army.

When they saw the Red Flag Edict leaving, no matter how everyone was in or what the faction was, many people held their hands together and secretly prayed.

...

"Everyone has to grit their teeth and push it. My Great Wei has a billion yuan in income of hundreds of millions of yuan. At this time, it is a hard time. The emperor is really too impatient!"

Yao Pingzhong was in the central army of the Northern Expedition Army. This young military officer in his twenties had a leopard head, a round eyes, a swallow chin and a tiger beard, a sound like a pine tree, a standing like a pine tree, and a standing like a bell, and his every move had an unconcealable masculinity.

Both Qi and Zhong Ji were from martial arts and Jinshi, and were famous generals in the northwest. Among the imperial guards from the northwest, there were more than ten military officers at the command level of the Zhong and Yao families. The rest of the army were Yuhou, deputy envoys of the military command level, and more than a hundred people at the command level of the battalion.

It’s not that the generals are in control, but in a century, the generals either joined the army since childhood, and fought with fame with each other on the battlefield with a single shot, or entered the officialdom with martial arts and Jinshi. They learned military books and practiced riding and shooting since childhood. They were already better than the children of the people during the exams, but they just competed with the children of the family.
