The only basis for Wang Jinghui to be convinced of this judgment was that in this era, only he knew that Yelu Hongji was one of the rare long-lived monarchs in history, and ruled the Liao Kingdom for 45 years. The most important thing was that when he had only one son like Yelu Jun, he just believed the slander and allowed Yelu Yixin to kill his own son. This made people too scared no matter what. In the Qing Dynasty, where the palace politics was the most cruel, even if the emperor knew that his son had the intention to rebel, he would give him a chance to correct it again and again. Regardless of whether it was sincere or not, at least it was not so cold.

In any case, Yelu Hongji is still in his prime. Unlike the sick crown prince of the Song Dynasty, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom has always been very good in good health, let alone Yelu Hongji, who loves hunting. Given Yelu Hongji's current situation, it is not surprising that he can rule for another ten years in the eyes of everyone. But Yelu Jun may not be able to wait for the previous year and next year - this is not to say that Yelu Jun wants to kill his father and ascend the throne early, but because Yelu Jun is young and energetic, and is also a passionate young man like Emperor Zhao Xu, with a higher heart and a higher heart and want to change the appearance of his country at once.

But Yelu Jun is much worse than Emperor Zhao Xu. Not to mention the talent of the two, there is no way to compare the talents around them. Yelu Jun just took power and took off the black hats of several officials. This was of no value other than that he was reckless. Yelu Jun's approach not only offended Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie, but also brought great pressure to his father. The prince's various actions pointed out his inaction in the past decade, which made Yelu Hongji feel worried.

"No matter what, Yelu Jun must die. Such a person inherited the Khitan soldiers in the future, which would be very unfavorable to our Song Dynasty. As long as Yelu Jun dies, the next heir of the Liao Kingdom will at least wait for the crown prince to grow up before talking about it. The revival of the Liao Kingdom can be sixteen years in the evening!" Wang Jinghui once explained to Nirvana carefully.

Now Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie of Liao are incompatible with the prince. Even if Yelu Jun will not die under the hands of both of them, Nie Xin will send Zhao Zhongge to the palace to assassinate the prince. At first, Nie Xin had no good feelings for Yelu Jun, but he had been in Liao for a while. The information fed back from all aspects shows that Xuezhen, the overseas student of the crown prince, has too many similarities in personality with the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, but the Liao Dynasty cannot find Sima Guang, Wang Anshi, and no Xiao Wang's prince consort!

"Brother Yan, I have to work hard to go to Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie's mansion twice during this period. The gold, silver and wealth used for bribery are all ready. If possible, try to buy some officials from the Liao Dynasty's Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, and try to collect the city and defense maps of the Liao Dynasty and various maps. These will be of great use in the future. Remember not to neglect them!" Nirhin said.

"This is no problem, but what should Yelu Jun do? I hope you can give me advice!" Ma Renhua said.

"The salt smuggling matter is just like this. We have already aroused the anger of both sides. The rest depends on how they fight. We still have to participate too much, just add a fire to the stove at the right time, so as not to expose ourselves early! However, the salt smuggling matters must continue to be done. After all, our expenses in the Liao Kingdom are not small, and we are used to make up for the cost of the Intelligence Bureau here." Nie Xin said with a smile.

The predecessors of the Intelligence Bureau in Liao were all run by Wang Jinghui before, and the intelligence work in the past was not as deep as it is now. Intelligence personnel teachers such as Ma Renhua and Xu Rongting provided support in the early stage. While providing intelligence to the Song Dynasty, they also made huge profits for Wang Jinghui. However, in order to consolidate the Liao Dynasty's intelligence network, Wang Jinghui did not transfer these profits to the Song Dynasty. However, it is not so easy to fill the appetite of giant corrupt officials like Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie. In addition to the low cost of getting off work, other gifts are real money and silver. This is also a considerable expense. At least Ma Renhua spent a lot of money in the circle of Dading Prefecture. It is calculated in thousands of guan. This is a wealth that ordinary people can't imagine.

Wang Jinghui has never been stingy about the money spent on intelligence. Those who are afraid of spending money are Emperor Zhao Xu, Sima Guang, Wang Anshi and others. If Wang Jinghui had not subsidized the expenses of the intelligence network from his pocket, it would be difficult to maintain the large amount of money based on the court's financial allocations alone. In fact, with the current intelligence spending level, Wang Jinghui can inject a sum of funds inward and handed over to the Liao Kingdom to manipulate it, and can achieve the level of making money with money, and even provide him with a considerable income every year.

The Liao Dynasty prohibited copper coins from flowing to the Song Dynasty, and the smuggling road was not so smooth, so the income was returned to the Song Dynasty in small batches in gold and silver. Making money was not the fundamental purpose of the intelligence network, but Nirvana couldn't stand everything and needed the son-in-law to pay for it. He used to be unable to directly manipulate this huge network when he was in Biandu and in Hebei, but now he is in Dading Prefecture, and all the intelligence networks of the Liao Kingdom are subject to his restraint, so he took this opportunity to seek some "welfare" for the son-in-law.

After the victory of the Xia War, Wang Jinghui had already heard about the purchase of salt fields, ranches and mines. Although he was not sure what Mr.'s overall plan was, one thing that could be confirmed was that Wang Jinghui needed funds very much. Otherwise, the use of such a large-scale purchase of industries was not to avoid the suspicion of the royal family. It could only be that he wanted to do something and needed a lot of money. He had made up his mind to send text messages to Liao Kingdom as much as possible, and sell it into gold and other things to smuggle back to the Song Dynasty to alleviate Mr.'s poverty.

"There is no problem with smuggling salt, but the business in Liao Kingdom was basically controlled by the Xu family and Jinzhou, Chenzhou and Suzhou. Will this cause their reaction?" Ma Renhua said. Although he vaguely guessed that Xu Rongting was probably a spy from the Song Dynasty built in Biandu like him, he still needs to confirm that it is relatively easy for him to smuggle with his power in Liao Kingdom. Even if he offended those wealthy businessmen, he didn't have to take it seriously. He just needed to let this "author of imperial envoy" confirm whether it was necessary to create an internal strife among his own people.

"Apart from taking the sea route, can't we do things?" Nie Xin smiled slightly, "In the southwest, a new smuggling channel will appear there. When I was in Biandu, I knew that the salt production in Liao is not limited to a few salt fields along the coast. In fact, some inland lakes are also rich in salt production. On Shangjing Road, there are also our people. As long as Yan Shushi makes some preparations in Dading Prefecture and obtains the share of smuggled salt from Guangji Lake Salt Farm on Shangjing Road, you can pass through the Baidadan tribe in the west and pass through the Wuliangsuhai in Heishan. It is already the control of the Tiande Army. One of my junior brothers is the head coach there. With his care, this smuggling network can be formed soon!"

Ma Renhua carefully accelerated the route in his mind and said, "As long as there are our people in Guangji Lake, we can completely skip Dading Mansion and smuggle salt directly into the Song Dynasty!"

"This is just a smuggling route that we can give up at any time. It is a trick of leisure. However, after we complete this mission, the Ma family will leave this place of right and wrong. At that time, we will lose control of this smuggling route. Instead of doing this, it is better to bring Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie in. Smuggling salt cannot make full use of this route. I also want to smuggle more things from the Liao Kingdom. If these private goods are placed in Xu Rongting, I am afraid that he will not dare to take it, but this smuggling route on Nanjing Road can be abandoned at any time. At that time, I will give personal favors to the descendants of the Liao Kingdom. I believe they will be very happy!" Nirxin smiled coldly.

After hearing this, the Ma Renhua brothers and Zhao Zhongge felt cold. The young man in front of them was simply the embodiment of a demon in their hearts. Judging from this situation, they had to make a big fuss in the Liao Kingdom. Originally, they thought the instructions from Biandu were just to take advantage of the Liao Kingdom's condom to provoke internal disputes between the Hou tribe and the King of Wei party. The maximum extent was to kill the prince. Unexpectedly, Nirvana not only stopped at this point, but also had a more ruthless back move behind. After the Hou tribe's power was weakened, they were using the southwest smuggling route to

Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie dragged into the abyss! If Nirvana can really make Nirvana work, I guess after this trouble, there will be nothing left in the process! Although the Ma Renhua brothers and Zhao Zhongge were heartbroken by Nirvana's plan, they were all ruthless characters who were determined to overthrow the Liao Kingdom. As long as they could weaken the Liao Kingdom to the greatest extent, any kind of poisonous plan could be used. What's more, Nirvana once again explained that after the matter was completed, they would all go to the Song Dynasty, and the more severe the damage it would be, the better!

Nie Xin's southwest smuggling route was used as an ambush to frame Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie. This strategy was beyond Wang Jinghui's plan in advance. Moreover, this matter involved a lot. Although Nie Xin wanted to take action first and then report, the entire plan still had to be approved by the son-in-law first. While instructing the Ma Renhua brothers to act in Dading Prefecture, he also wrote a secret letter to Wang Jinghui of Biandu to inform the entire plan.

"This is the whole plan. I have no hiding any more. However, I still have the issue of smuggling routes from the southwest to the Xijing Road to the Tiande Army through Shangjing Road. I hope the Lord can make a sacred verdict!" Wang Jinghui bowed and said.

Nirhin's "future" made Wang Jinghui difficult to make a choice. He had no problem with the smuggling route from Xijing Road to Tiande Army on the Jing Road. However, this was smuggling after all. In the Song Dynasty, there was no way to do the "Eight Discussions" legal system of Liao Kingdom. Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie could finally use the "Eight Discussions" to escape Yelu Hongji's anger, but he could not escape the resentment of Emperor Zhao Xu towards him. It would be better not to be a good deal, and he would never have such a risk again.

After receiving this letter, Wang Jinghui thought about it for a while and finally decided to visit Wen Yanbo's mansion first, because Wen Yanbo was the Privy Councilor and an insider of the Liao Kingdom's plan. The establishment of what Nirhin calls the "southwest smuggling channel" cannot be separated from the Privy Council and secret assistance. Although Bingfeng was the main general of the Hetao Plain, the Privy Council was in charge of national military mobilizations. Without their cooperation, if the smuggling information was exposed, it would be Wang Jinghui himself. Wang Jinghui in Mingli

I went to seek Wen Yanbo's advice, which is no better than coastal smuggling. In fact, Wen Yanbo cannot make the decision on this issue. In the end, he still needs the sage of Emperor Zhao Xu to calculate. According to Wang Jinghui's estimate, Zhao Xu could not add an official position to him, but the emperor still needed to win over his ministers. The biggest possibility was to occupy part of the benefits, and the greatest benefit belonged to him. Although the final income was less, it was very safe and secure!

Emperor Zhao Xu thought for a while after listening to Wang Jinghui's introduction, and said with a smile: "I have too many concerns. I think it is the best of both worlds to establish this smuggling channel! As I said, the smuggling channels in Liao should be "continued with the times". Since the Western Xia was wiped out, the extra border with Liao provided more possibilities for the Song Dynasty to smuggle from Liao. Although smuggling to Liao was not the main income of the Song Dynasty's finances, the economic impact on Liao was huge. I have also read the Intelligence Bureau to submit it.

The stipulation sent here is that the finances of the Liao Kingdom are almost collapsed, and the people who make a living by agriculture and handicrafts have gone bankrupt in large quantities, which has brought great trouble to the stability of the domestic political situation of Liao. In fact, I also believe that when the Liao Kingdom does not use military means, it is the best way to destroy the foundation of Liao Kingdom. This will eliminate the possibility of Liao Kingdom launching a war without bloodshed. However, I want to know what reason should I use to launch a war if the Song Dynasty wants to pacify Yanyun?"

Wen Yanbo's face changed after hearing this - launching an attack on the Liao Kingdom to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. This was the dream of the emperors of all generations, and it was also the greatest wish of the so-called "old ministers of Qingli". During the Qingli period, it was a peak of the glory of the Song Dynasty, but it was also the peak of the crater. In April of the third year of Qingli, Fan Zhongyan returned to Beijing to serve as the governor of the government and Han Qi. Fu Bi jointly presided over the government affairs. In the new policy program of the famous "Answer the Hand-Order" "On the Ten Things", he proposed "clear promotion and demotion, suppress happiness, improve tribute, select officials, all public fields, and enrich farmers and mulberry trees.

, cultivate military preparations, reduce labor service, promote favor and trust, and emphasize orders" ten reform propositions with the rectification of the administration as the core. The so-called "old ministers of Qingli" have become famous "Four Advices" - Ouyang Xiu, Wang Su, Cai Xiang, and Yu Jing - are only left with Ouyang Xiu as the "treasure of the courtyard" in Huaying Academy. Although Han Qi and Fu Bi are still guarding the border, they are already in their twilight years. The decline of famous ministers of Qingli made Wen Yanbo feel desolate at this time. But as that era, he always felt a swell of indescribable pride in his heart.

"Economic gap! Liao is not an incompetent person. Yelu Hongji is not a fool. When the Liao Dynasty's finances are so bad that it cannot be worse, it will not be able to sit idly by and watch the huge economic gap between Song and Liao. At that time, it is imperative to close the salt field, and it is reasonable to investigate smuggling. However, this is also an excuse for the war between Song and Liao!" Wang Jinghui replied calmly.

Wang Jinghui didn't know that Wen Yanbo was looking at him carefully at this time - someone used Wang Jinghui's very immature calligraphy to mock Ethiopia, and once asserted that the young prince-consort, who was talented and outstanding, would definitely not play the piano. As a result, a song "Lu Shuang" by Jiuweiju completely broke this rumor. This song "Lu Shuang" was the only song played by "Xiao Fan Laozi". Fan Zhongyan was called "Fan Lu Shuang" because he only played this song "Lu Shuang". This song "Lu Shuang" caused great controversy between the reformists and the conservatives. The main members of the conservatives are the famous officials of Qingli led by Fan Zhongyan at that time. From the perspective of the origin of the reform, Lian Yan was the pioneer of Wang Anshi.

"During the Han and Tang Dynasties, there was no excuse to attack Hu Yi. The formation of this situation is nothing more than because the Song and Liao countries have been evenly matched for a hundred years. The Khitan children only accepted the sinicization and used the Spring and Autumn righteousness to restrict the military operations of the Song Dynasty for the purpose of restraining our Song Dynasty. If the strength of the two families is not in contrast and the balance is broken, who can remember that they would need excuses when launching a war? Our Song Dynasty is the righteous and insisted on serving the Khitan with brothers. The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun have been a rival for a hundred years. Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong was not willing to see this situation. As long as the Song Dynasty has strong enough strength, the emperor can recover the former land of the Han and Tang Dynasties at any time!" Wang Jinghui continued.

Emperor Zhao Xu waved his hand to stop Wen Yanbo's interruption and said, "Your dear, don't say much. I know that it is not the time to dynasty in Liao, but one day I will hold 100,000 troops to observe the Dading Prefecture and fulfill the wishes of Emperor Taizu Taizong! Wang Qing, the matter of establishing a northwest smuggling channel is cleared. As for the profit after smuggling, the specific matters will be determined by the negotiation of the two dear dears. The next day, the registration of the Privy Council of the Path of the Daozi will be made!"

After hearing this, Wen Yanbo and Wang Jinghui exchanged glances in private - the young emperor has begun to mature, and he is no longer a young emperor who always wants to wield a "military stick"! And Wang Jinghui gained a lot from this time. He can smuggle under the public protection of the Privy Council - the Liao Kingdom is not only rich in salt industry, but also more. As long as the Dading Prefecture moves properly, the northwest smuggling passage can also obtain a large number of horses, metals, and even the Liao Kingdom's standard weapons, especially the saber they use!
Chapter completed!
