After some examination, Zhao Jiu also realized it.

Although Wu Jie was determined, most of the young children he sent were from Western Army officials. The future of such people was already in the army. It was better to send him to meet him as an official, and there were still a few people like Wang Zhongfu.

Of course, this is also something that is expected and reasonable.

To put it bluntly, the so-called young man with excellent moral character and smart keenness, even if he is a good family, he will naturally study. How can he study in martial arts? Just like in later generations, high school students with similar grades will naturally go to the college entrance examination. Who would drop out of school and write the Internet or play e-sports?

Unless it is really not possible to go to school, or it is indeed as talented as Wang Zhongfu.

This is a conceptual problem for hundreds of years. Even if the Jingkang Rebellion objectively improved the status of military personnel, it was still not enough to shake this deep-rooted concept. In history, Yue Fei reached the top position of military officials, and his son was grateful to the civil servants. He was embarrassed to ask for it. He said that the civil servants were inferior to the military officials, and he exchanged them for the military officers, and specifically asked for the civil servants' favor to the son of his benefactor Zhang Su... In other words, even the military officials despise themselves.

To put it simply, although Zhao Jiu worked hard for four or five years to maintain war between the Huanghuai and Huai, it seemed amazing, but in fact, this achievement could not be said to make the identity of a military minister a little less than in history... because many places only encounter turmoil, and the abuse of force in the turmoil will only make them more disgusted with warriors, rather than thoroughly realizing the necessity of force.

Of course, even if you know some things, the Zhao Guan family still has to pretend not to know them.

Not only that, the official also spent a long time saying something about the Northern Expedition that had not been successful and the ministers still needed to work hard. They also wrote a couplet to the Military Academy Hall. It is said that it was used to use the words of Yue Fei, a famous general of this dynasty, and that it was "please go elsewhere for promotion and wealth, and do not enter this door if you are greedy and fearless."

Then?

Then there was nothing.

It's ridiculous. Zhao Jiu clearly wrote such words and said such words, but he knew in his heart that not to mention other martial arts children, even Wang Zhongfu and others came for the four words of promotion and wealth... If you want to change this situation, you must let these people get promoted and wealth first. Because only martial artists are prone to promotion and wealth, and are no longer inferior to society, the so-called "full granaries" can only truly establish a strong sense of honor and disgrace for the army.

In fact, this is also the reason why he built martial arts behind the palace, just to facilitate his entry and exit. In the era of imperial power, being close to the emperor was the best way to get promoted and make money.

It tastes a bit like the licentious Emperor Zhengde.

However, if you think about it this way, compared to Yue Fei, Zhang Yongzhen, and the Hou Dan who always can't remember the name but only one ear, that is, those who stimulate the concept of family and country and the mentality of honor and disgrace of soldiers, are becoming more and more valuable. But behind this value is the background of the destruction of the northern scholars and civilians in the collapse of the Jingkang that day, the destruction of the northern scholars and civilians and their displacement, which was exchanged for countless deaths and humiliation, which seemed heavy.

However, it was said that two days later, the Zhao Guan family changed the daily target shooting location to the third day of martial arts, and changed it to the morning after that day. Just as they were about to shoot with those officers in the further study, they suddenly received a request from Zhao Ding, the minister of the Duzhou Province. He made a promise, but changed the receiving location to the martial arts shooting range.

However, after a while, after the two sides met, Zhao Ding was very kind, but he just came to send a letter. Not only that, Yang Yizhong stepped forward to answer, but was rejected by the husband and asked in public to submit it according to the system, and asked the eunuch, the provincial apprentice, Lan Gui, to submit it on his behalf.

Just this word made the atmosphere on the martial arts shooting range serious.

"My husband is so serious, is it a letter to say goodbye?"

When Zhao Jiu saw Zhao Ding's attitude, he not only did not be alert, but instead made a joke... He did not specifically call Lan Gui, but instead put down his bow and arrow and went forward to pick him up.

But as the official said this, many military officers who had just shown archery skills were even trembling.

"Official joke." Zhao Ding's face tightened, and he bowed his head and handed the letter to him.

However, Zhao Jiu took the letter and did not open it to see it. Instead, he held the letter on the edge of the shooting range and thoughtfully: "Grandpa Zhao, do you know why I regarded you as the Prime Minister that day?"

Zhao Ding was so smart. He was just a little stunned and realized that his actions had attracted the dissatisfaction of the official family in front of him... This large-scale joint report of the Imperial City Department, even if the Imperial City Department did not go to investigate specifically, could not hide it from everyone... Not only that, he originally invited Prime Minister Lu Haowen, Prime Minister Zhang Jun and others to come together, but the two of them just refused. They thought that they might have received the instructions from the official family, or they might have guessed the thoughts of the official family.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Yuanzhen couldn't help but feel heavy, but he was also suppressed and stood there with a serious look: "I am ashamed, and sometimes I have some doubts. With my mediocre resources, how could I be so grateful to the holy grace that I have so much, so that I went from Kaifeng Prefecture to the Prime Minister of the Duzhou Province in four or five years?"

"If Mr. Zhao is a mediocre person, there will be few capable people in the world." Zhao Jiu held his back with his hands and raised his head and sighed. "You will be outstanding when you move to the people of Shunchang Prefecture that day, and you will be outstanding. Although I don't say anything, you know that you are a person who can do things. Then in the Battle of Cai, you guard the city with Zhang Jun as an envoy of the court to calm the morale of the army and have made great contributions. Later, you appointed Huainan, Huainan, Huainan, Huainan and Huainan military transport, and in addition to the livelihoods of Huainan, you will do a first-class job. After taking office as the Minister of the Ministry of Education, you will not be in charge.

Private, not forming cliques, simple style, and moderate behavior... I say rudely, among the important ministers I have experienced, if you are in terms of ability, only Xu Jingheng and Xu Gong were comparable to you before, and if you are in terms of virtue, you are just like Yue Pengju and martial officials, and you are all outstanding among the crowd! Even if you are in front of Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhang, I will not hide it. As for what happened to be the one who jumped up in four or five years, and the Jingkang Incident was like destroying the country. Is it the only one who jumped up in four or five years?”

"I... feel ashamed." Zhao Ding could only say this.

"However, I didn't know your virtue when I appointed you." Zhao Jiu continued to laugh. "At that time, you were appointed, first of all, your official rank, and all the credit was achieved, and he was a person I always kept in my heart and didn't have to remember in my notebook; secondly, there are two parts in your resume that I value especially..."

At this point, Zhao Jiu paused slightly, and then continued to say: "One, you were born in Hedong and were a displaced person; the other is that you were a Jinshi, and you have been in the position of Luoyang Order and Kaifeng Prefecture Yicao for nearly twenty years... The former makes me not have to worry about your position and feel that you can advance and retreat with you; the latter makes me feel assured that you can be at ease with your ability to do things and entrust the world with you."

Zhao Ding finally sighed... The problem lies in the advance and retreat together.

"Grandpa Zhao, you are all good, but you shouldn't be so selfless." Zhao Jiu became more and more serious. "So selfless is just to make it difficult for me to do... Because I use you to borrow your identity as a northerner to suppress the lord's responsibility, rather than to unite all the officials. What kind of papering craftsman is here! You come to see me with such a thing, and I can't refuse to accept it, but if I accept it, will the people below think that I should give in to other places? When you were in Huainan that day, Li Gang and Li Gongshu wrote me a letter saying that you are aware of things, talented, virtuous and kind, and deal with it well, but the righteousness is not very clear... It seems to be a foresight."

"I would like to resign!"

"There is no such statement." Zhao Jiu became more and more serious. "The prime minister must not resign because of false documents. It was a national policy that was set by Jianyan at the beginning. With the prime minister's body, he would resign at any time. It was just a matter of seeking fame... It is easy for you to resign as the prime minister, but who will be responsible for the political situation in the country? If you resign, Liu Dazhong, Minister of Personnel, and Hu Shijiang, Minister of War, also resigned? Moreover, this time, it was my fault that I had never been honest with you. I had already stated my intentions. Why did you do this?"

Hearing this, Zhao Ding was silent for a moment, but bowed to him: "The official family, if you say this, I will have a few words today."

"It's just right!" Zhao Jiu nodded and said to him. "Our king and minister should be honest."

Yang Yizhong turned around immediately after hearing this, but signaled the military officers present to avoid it.

"No need to do this. Everything the emperor and the prime minister said is to show others' words." Zhao Jiu turned around and stopped Yang Yizhong, then turned his head to face Zhao Ding. "Your Majesty, just say it."

"The root of doubts among officials and ministers is not only the officials and civilians in the south are not happy with the Northern Expedition, but also worry that once the Northern Expedition is in a hurry, there may be a slight setback. At that time, it will arouse more people's rebellion. It is better..."

"Why do you make a little rectification, rest for several years, and join the army to go north?" Zhao Jiu almost blurted out.

"yes!"

"Do you believe it or not? As long as I put down the word "temporary harmony" or quell the rebellion and stop the agenda of march, the court will be full of slackness. If you want to fight the Northern Expedition, it will be difficult for the world to move?!"

“…”

"As for the slight setbacks... I just leave my power to do my best!" Zhao Jiufu sneered again. "I naturally know that I am a master's asset, or a non-staff emperor who has taken office in a hurry. I don't know any emperor's mind. I also know that the court has undergone this major change and is full of holes. I also know that the problems of the Song Dynasty are difficult to clean up after hundreds of years. But I don't believe it. I cut the cost of the palace to the minimum, try to be honest with you important officials, give you as much preferential treatment as possible, and give your soldiers as complete equipment as possible. The official newspaper and the Jinshi who can talk about the national justice in the words of the military officials. The court's lord's attitude can be suppressed for a day, and do it one by one. If you do it one by one, it may not be worth the loss and may be backfired. But if you keep doing it like this, can it be worse than not doing it?!"

"His Majesty……"

"Zhao Qing." Zhao Jiu said a heart-wrenching word... If you want me to stop the idea of ​​destroying gold, there is only one way, that is, to drive me down and change me to the emperor!"

"Don't be angry with the official!" Before the officers were completely panicked, Zhao Ding quickly stopped. "With his power and virtue, no one can shake the official family now, and no one has the intention!"

"It is not enough to use power and virtue, but it is still possible to use etiquette and law." Zhao Jiu still stood with his hands behind his back. "Will there be people who can shake me when the two saints come back? Or just two... At that time, the Lord will help them again and occupy this position, wouldn't they all be happy? Even those who say they are always welcomed back to the two saints, may not be the intention to play leisure chess!"

The Zhao Guan family's words about tigers and wolves are too free. The shooting range is already silent. Everyone around them has turned pale, but Yang Yizhong's expression remains unchanged, and he just lowered his head slightly.

As for Zhao Ding, he still had a demeanor, but he sighed slightly: "Why is the official family here?"

Zhao Jiu did not speak directly, but just officially opened the letter behind him, and then checked in person: "I have received the wishes of all the ministers. Mr. Zhao might as well go back and tell everyone that I will definitely pursue the Northern Expedition according to their wishes and will never waver."

Now, Zhao Ding was silent for a while and finally had to bow his hands and say goodbye.

"Then what the little emperor of Song said?"

Yanjing, the Marshal's Mansion, and the powerful minister of the Jin Kingdom, Nianhan sat on the chair of the Grand Master. After listening to Wulin's reply to Changmo's reward, he just frowned. "Do you really think that if you win a battle, you will be invincible in the world?"

This is not a serious question. Wulin answered Jon Mo without saying anything, but just stood up and bowed his head.

"Forget it, it's hard to get around, let's go and rest!" Nianhan waved his hand and signaled.

Wu Lin replied to Changmo and just immediately said to him... This scene made Qin Hui, who was observing coldly in the corner of the hall, unable to help his eyes twitch slightly.

Let me say that the Wulinda family is now an important political force in the Jin Dynasty. Wulindao used literary works and Wulindaotai wanted to use martial arts, both of which were second only to the Wanyan family. However, even so, Wulindaomo was as docile as a domestic slave in front of Nianhan.

In fact, the Wulinda family was really considered a slave of Nianhan, because their tribe was completely subdued after being defeated by Wanyan family. At that time, the one who led the troops was Nianhan. According to the rules of the Jurchens, wasn't the Wulinda family just Nianhan's servant family? Or in other words, it was precisely because the Wulinda family was Nianhan's servant family that they had their current status.

But on the other hand, this great Jin has been a great country for thousands of miles. It has been established for a long time, so how can it still behave like this?

"What do you think of the Fourth Prince?"

Just as Qin Huizhi was thinking, Nian Han finally asked Wanyan Wushu next to him.

Wanyan Wushu, who had been seriously ill after swimming across the Yellow River before, looked pale and seemed to have not recovered. He heard this and frowned: "I only listen to Marshal Du's words."

After asking Wushu, Nianhan nodded and directly skipped the eldest prince Oben, the third prince Eliduo, Wanyan Talan, Wanyan Yinshuke, Wanyan Xiyin and others in the hall, and made a conclusion: "According to me, the Song people are so tough, let's forget about peace talks. Anyway, the Song people have to quell the rebellion in the south and have to advance Shaanxi and Jingdong. If there is no one or two years, we will take the opportunity to recuperate for a while and manage the national affairs and the army. If it is fast, we can still deal with the Mengwu people. At that time, we will teach the aggressive Song people a great lesson on the Hebei plain, and also avenge Wu Yan (Wanyan Loushi)!"

Many people in the hall looked at each other, but Yin Shuku took the initiative to frown: "Master Du, if this is the case, what should the living girl do? He led more than 10,000 troops in Yan'an, and did not listen to Ba Li to dispatch it quickly."

Nianhan's face turned dark and sighed: "Let's see how many days Oliyan's face is better than him. When Yanjing is cleaned up, who can't go there in person? Is it enough to say no? Can we still rebel?"

Silver Technique was too eager to speak but stopped, and finally he didn't dare to say much, and the people around him were completely speechless.

Nian Han didn't care about this: "That's it, it's all gone today. According to the rules, I will come to me again in two days to deal with the matter."

Everyone stood up and bowed to say goodbye from the three princes, and then left the hall in a depressed manner, then went away in groups of three or five, with their followers.

By the way, the spring days in Yanjing are not the same as other places. The so-called short spring neck is first cold, and then there is wind and strong wind. There is sand and dust inside the wind. When the wind blows, it suddenly becomes hot and it is summer.

At this moment, it was the time when the wind was shook the sky.

The rest of the people were not mentioned, but only said that Wanyan Wushu brought Qin Hui, and his three brothers Eliduo and his group walked together. When they arrived at a street intersection, they suddenly smelled a sweet fragrance in the wind, and they were also cheered up. Following the smell, they saw that there was a vendor selling fried chestnuts at the intersection of the street. The stall owner was a young man, only about twenty years old.

"Are there any fried chestnuts at this time?" Wu Shu was stunned immediately. "This chestnut has to be stored for half a year, right?"

"It's not a big deal for half a year." Qin Hui smiled behind him. "So that the fourth prince knew that there was a man named Li He in Bianjing that day, who was best at stir-frying chestnuts. His family's chestnuts were both secrets. Chestnuts can be kept for more than half a year, but they were not in the second half of summer and early autumn. The fried chestnuts are also recognized as the best, and no one can learn them... I think Yanjing is much northerly than Bianjing, and it takes a long time to winter, so it is common to have chestnuts at this time."

Wu Shu nodded, and Eliduo even thought about it and pointed it casually.

Immediately, the two Jurchen cavalry turned over and dismounted, went directly to the chestnut stall to take all the fried chestnuts made of hemp, and then broke the bundle of hemp with a knife and turned around to the two princes, guests who were treated like Qin Hui, and officers accompanying him.

However, one of them came up to Wu Shu. Wu Shu didn't answer it, but instead picked up the horse whip and whipped it in the face.

The Jurchen cavalry was at a loss, and neither dared to hide nor knew what it had made. They could only stand there and hold half a bunch of fried chestnuts in a daze... In fact, not to mention the Jurchen cavalry, even Eliduo and other Jurchen Xihan followers were confused.

However, Qin Hui understood and turned over and dismounted the horse. He first took the fried chestnut from the cavalry, then walked to the vendor, took a gold seed from his pocket in his sleeve, and handed it to the pale vendor owner. Everyone went to see Wu Shu at this time, and then they woke up a little.

"The fourth brother did the right thing." Elido was embarrassed for a moment. "It was all people in their own country and should not be forced at will."

Wu Shu just shook his head and sighed, and then did not eat chestnuts, so he went first. Many people behind him felt bored, so they spread out at the intersection of the street. Only Qin Huizhi held half a bunch of fried chestnuts and followed him, and returned to the mansion with Wu Shu... You know, before Qin Hui left to Huguan to meet Wanyan Wu Shu and persuaded the other party to go to Daming Mansion to pick up Nianhan, Wu Shu regarded him as the leader, and he felt that he had met too late.

As for Qin Hui, he had the intention of using the fourth prince to accomplish his business, so he naturally welcomed him with all his might. In addition, he no longer dared to go south, so he simply stopped hiding, but officially took up the position of Marshal's Mansion provided by Wanyan Wushu, and became the other party's confidant adviser.

Back in front of him, Wanyan Wushu and Qin Hui returned to the mansion together. They were still worried, so they simply ordered the wine to be served, and then they started chatting with Qin Hui with fried chestnuts.

"I really didn't expect that if the king suffered a stroke, everything would be over!" Wanyan Wushu sighed first.

Qin Hui also smiled bitterly.

That’s right, it must be emphasized here that Wanyan Wu Qimai was not under house arrest by Nian Han, but had a stroke!

In history, this guy was in poor health, about two years later... In fact, what Lou Shi said was right. Their generation was malnourished when they were young, and when they grew up, they had a lot of problems. It was in the past few years that something would happen sooner or later... This kind of body, coupled with Lou Shi's defeat in Yaoshan, died in Guanxi, Nianhan went south to take refuge, seized the military power of the Daming Mansion, and the continuous military affairs and internal affairs caused great psychological pressure to Wu Qimai.

So, when Nianhan was persuaded by Wushu to come back, it was getting warmer and the group followed the rules to go to Wuguo City. As a result, the strong wind in Yanjing was blown back in full view of the crowd, Wu Qimai was blown to his mouth tilted, and then he lay down and half of his body was silent.
To be continued...
