Chapter 173 The first shot
It seems very bad, but this case becomes a headless case after death. It doesn’t matter to Zhao Kuangyi, at most it’s a bit fishy smell, but maybe the two sons of the Su family will fight Song Jiu. Song Jiu asked: “How did you commit suicide?”
"In the morning, he was in the cell and quietly tore his clothes into strips of cloth and tied a knot. There were other prisoners in the cell. Some prisoners refused to listen and called him the yamen runners, but the yamen runners came late, so he hung them on the beam and committed suicide."
"Suicide?" Yuping asked in surprise. The most difficult thing since ancient times is the word "death", saying that you are not afraid of death, but how many people are truly not afraid of death?
But Song Jiu saw a ray of dawn in his eyes, which was too familiar, too familiar. He pulled Fu Zhaoshou aside and whispered, and Fu Zhaoshou said, "How could it be?"
"So the divine power must also be guided. The existence of ghosts and gods is a good thing for the country. With ghosts and gods, no matter how miserable the people live, there is still a spiritual sustenance. This life is not good, and there is still the next life. If there is no ghosts and gods, there will be no faith, and the laws of this world will be difficult to formulate. However, if there is no guidance, there will be problems with the royal power, and the divine power will also have problems. Don't go too far. In another thirty years, if Buddhism is not restrained or guided, it will have many disadvantages, and it may develop in the direction of the Southern Tang."
"This..." Fu Zhaoshou couldn't continue.
If a great Jinshi just said the Buddha's name and was exiled to Shaman Island, who would dare to say bad things about Buddhism? He did not say bad things. Judging from the various development trends of Buddhism in history, it is possible that it will develop into any kind of monster.
Song Jiu sighed and said, "I have seen many regions, there are ghosts, gods and religions in various places, and many countries in the West. There are also many ghosts, gods and religions. In simple terms, Lao Tzu was the same as Confucius in the Spring and Autumn Period. But with Taoism, he became the Taishang Laojun. Zhuangzi just wrote a good article and became a real person in Nanhua. There may be some ghosts and gods, but now these ghosts and gods are all granted by mortals. Why can't they provide them with mortals? Moreover, if ghosts and gods are used to make articles, it would be terrible to brainwash the people."
"My brother-in-law said you have the talent of a prime minister, but unfortunately you are too lazy... Jiulang, what do you think is longer than us?"
"Don't scare me!" Song Jiu said bluntly. What a talent for the prime minister. His unreliable golden finger stood by and said it was OK to be the prime minister. Think about the open and secret struggles in the officialdom, and being the prime minister himself is seeking death.
"You and your brother-in-law..."
"Didn't I say that, you'd better not ask about this. Even if you come to me these two times, don't show off to the outside world. It doesn't matter if you show some hostility in normal times. This is good for your brother-in-law and more for me."
Fu Zhaoshou still couldn't figure it out, but he understood it soon after.
Because of the power of Song Jiu, several Song troops gathered together, speeding up the speed of suppressing the rebellion. However, the main force was the Liu Cao East Route Army and Wang Quanbin North Route Army. Ding Deyu's ones could not count, there were only a few thousand soldiers. Kang Yanze's ones could not count, either, but they were just the rebel soldiers of Bashu, not to mention combat effectiveness. They could not keep up with weapons and armor.
The most difficult thing to pacify was Lu Han's army. He had many elite Song troops under his command. At this time, the Song soldiers fought extremely strongly. They were slightly better than the Khitan soldiers. If they were all good at riding horses and did not lack horses, defeating the Khitan and regaining Youyun was not a dream.
The two armies gathered together. Cao Guang was the commander of the rebel army, not the commander of the first battalion, but the head of the first army. The rebel army was some Bashu soldiers who did not obey Lu Han's command and defected. There were several battalions in total. The combat effectiveness may be weak, but they were familiar with the local terrain and climate. They led them to the Song army be more wings.
It was equivalent to the three armies attacking together, Lu Han was defeated, Yazhou lost, and fled to Lizhou. As soon as the flee came. He coerced his subordinates to plot against him, but the soldiers had no choice but to die if they did not plot against him. If Lu Han could accomplish great things and become the King of Bashu, the old and young people in the capital would close their eyes and ignore it. But in failure, these Song soldiers who followed him were furious. Thinking about their future, they gathered together in anger and killed Lu Han to vent their anger. Before they had time to make up corpses, Wang Quanbin's army caught up with him, threw Lu Han's body into the water, and fled in scatter.
But where can we escape? As a result, those who were killed were killed, those who were captured, the Yazhou Rebellion was quickly quelled. Wang Quanbin promised to avenge Cao Guangshi, and quell the Lu Han Rebellion in the front, and the two armies behind continued to move westwards. Cao Guangshi was the vanguard and pacified the remaining enemies in Lizhou. Of course, Zhang Zhongle also asked him to "pacify".
Seeing the cruel Song army, the nearby barbarians and Qiang chiefs brought wine and meat together to accompany them.
Then Wang Quanbin brought the army back to deal with Wang Keliao's remnants.
Zhao Kuangyin fought him endlessly and did not express his opinion. Instead, he sent envoys to take out money and silk to reward the three armies.
In fact, Zhao Kuangyin was very embarrassed, and Wang Quanbin's actions directly harmed the policies after the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Kuangyin didn't say anything, but just stabilized Wang Quanbin first, and then transferred some good officials to Bashu. For example, An Shouzhong, who performed well in Yongzhou, Hunan, was transferred to Bashu as the governor of Hanzhou. There was also Hu Jineng, the son of Hu Meng, who was pure and kind by nature, as the governor of Yazhou. He also transferred twenty-seven rebel leaders of the Song army, including Sun Jin, Wu Guan, to the capital.
Zhao Kuangyin asked in person.
Originally, the rebellion of Quanshixiong was not that serious, but the Song army of Lu Han and others also rebelled, and the rebellion had to be under the banner of rebellion. We cannot say that we were uneven in the division of the spoils, but only rebelled. Therefore, Wang Quanbin and Song generals such as the Song army were not engaged in the business, which further disturbed the hearts of the people of Bashu.
Song Jiu said a lot and also talked about this. He even commented that although the entire Shixiong was killed, there were still some forgiven places. People like Lu Han are the real sins that cannot be forgiven. One is from the perspective of the country, you are the Song generals of the Song army, and the other is from the perspective of the private perspective. Your family is in the capital, and you have thought about your family. They don’t care about the money and the family, and don’t care about these two points. Is this still a human being?
Zhao Kuangyin may not agree.
So I asked Sun Jin and the others why. In fact, Sun Jin and others were stunned at this time. If they all knelt down and beg for mercy at this time, maybe Zhao Kuangyin could spare their lives. Otherwise, why bother asking, just take it out and behead them.
But when Sun Jin saw Zhao Kuangyin's words, he became more and more reasonable. The biggest crime in feudal countries was the crime of treason. He finally decided that it was reasonable to rebel. Zhao Kuangyin heard it at the end. His face was originally dark, and he finally got a little white in the palace. As a result, he became angry and turned blue and black. He was angry and pulled Sun Jin and others out of the market together. In fact, Sun Jin was like Old Man Su. If he had confessed, he would have been instigated by others and would have forgiven his crimes. But he couldn't think about it and committed suicide in prison. Song Jiu couldn't explain the truth clearly and wiped out Zhao Kuangyi's face. However, once the case was solved, the truth was revealed. What about his family? This harm was the descendants.
The same was true for Sun Jin. The other surrendered generals admitted their mistakes, but because of Sun Jin's unruly, all the other twenty-six people were dragged into the water to behead and made public. It also hurt his family. Zhao Kuangyin became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it. He killed all twenty-seven generals and issued an edict to punish Sun Jin's clan. The clan was to kill the clan, and the worst was to kill the nine clans, but this was to kill the three clans. The parents were relatives, the brothers were relatives, the wife was relatives, and the ones were killed. One, two, and three were killed.
Then he dealt with the rebels of Bashu, which could not be punished by the three clans. So someone suggested that the wife of the three clans would not be implicated. The soldiers themselves were killed together. The law did not blame the crowd. Li Chongju said the truth: "Your Majesty. These people are rebelling and perishing, and they should be killed according to the law. However, there are too many people, and the rebels have more than 10,000. If they are implicated by their wives and children, the dead will be tens of thousands of people, and the entire capital will be bloody and cannot be killed."
Therefore all are released.
Not only was there nothing wrong, but those who were in the army would continue to join the army, but they would be punished more or less. Song Jiu was not very clear about how it was. He only knew one thing. The children of the Liu family finally wrote a letter back. Those who reported their safety said that the emperor would not kill them, and also wrote to them to inform their family that they were escorting them to the capital.
The Liu family cried with joy. It doesn’t matter whether they make money or not, it’s better for people to live. Song Jiuxin was also a little calmer. Whether Wang Quanbin quenched or not, Wang Ke’s army was just a group of scattered soldiers and brave men. Originally, under the attack of Ding Deyu and Kang Yanze, he could only flee in the mountains and fields, and his soldiers kept running away. In addition, the two armies were united, how long could they support? As soon as this disaster star came back, the people of Bashu began to be temporarily stable.
But at this moment, the first shot of the two Zhao battle was fired.
Feng Zan case!
Song Jiu said Feng Zan was good, and Zhao Kuangyin also thought it was good. He was handsome and talked with Zhao Kuangyin and laughed. This was the demeanor. Just like Song Jiu was nervous, his conversation was normal, and Zhao Kuangyin thought he had the demeanor. After all, who was not afraid of the emperor at this time?
After a discussion, Zhao Kuangyin was appointed as the Censor of the Later Zhou Palace to be appointed as the Chief of the Chief of the White Army of the Jianghuai River. What was that? The headquarters of the Jianghuai White-Clothed Army was located. Moreover, the previous governor Si Chao levyed heavily, which made the people resentful, and Zhao Kuangyin was afraid that something would happen again. Anyway, the military generals are not good now, and many civil officials are not good. As the emperor, Zhao Kuangyin had to send people to repair them everywhere. Feng Zan took office, and the tax was light and the tax was low, and Shu people were very happy. He should use more people, just like Lu Yuqing, who was the firefighting captain everywhere, and Zhao Kuangyin used Feng Zan. He was then appointed as the Luzhou, which is Hefei, to appease the people of Jianghuai. Something happened in Bashu, the court urgently dispatched capable officials, including Lu Yuqing and Shen Yilun. Feng Zan did a good job, and defeated Shangguan and promoted three thousand rebels with tens of thousands of riots, which made the territory of Zizhou quickly stabilize. Even the entire Shixiong controlled Tongshan, and did not dare to take a step and harasse Zizhou.
Wherever Song Jiu passed, it was not the best Puzhou in the rebellious area, but Zizhou. Zhao Kuangyin was very pleased, so Zhao Pu was deeply jealous of it. This was the statement outside. In fact, there was insider. Feng Zan was a member of Zhao Kuangyi for a long time. Zhao Pu also knew that when Feng Zan went down, he sent a dead soldier from his family to build Feng Zan. Song Jiu went down and was eager for the protection of the guards. Even if he was patrolling the mine, he summoned four eldest sons. Besides, Feng Zan saw that he was brave and clever, so he took him as a servant and took him to Zizhou.
Bashu gradually settled down and it was time to harvest.
The servant fled back to Beijing, knocked on the drum, and sued Feng Zan and Linjun Li Mei, and Li Yu, the censor in the Tongzong Palace of Zizhou, for corruption and abuse of power.
Some people can be greedy, such as Wang Quanbin, but some people cannot be greedy, such as Feng Zan and Zhao Kuangyin are preparing to use talents. This is like Song Jiu. Zhao Kuangyin allowed Zhao Pu and Zhao Kuangyi to recruit some talents, but even Song Jiu who had no ambitions, no desires and no demands, and just wanted to make some money would be included. How serious would that problem be? So Zhao Kuangyin changed the magistrate, but the inside story told people not to disclose it to the outside world. At that time, he was still preparing to reuse Feng Zan.
He just recalled Feng Zan, just asked a question, and continued to use it to prove his innocence. Feng Zan and others returned to Beijing. Zhao Kuangyin asked the censor to investigate, Zhao Kuangyi asked what was true and what was false? The censors all told Feng Zan to help Feng Zan and reported that the servants were false and that Feng Zan was innocent.
In fact, Zhao Pu's move was extremely cruel. The servant complaint was just a cover, and the drama was behind. Song Jiu thought that Zhao Kuangyi was not short of money. Where can he not lack money? He raised so many people and bought people's hearts without spending money? After taking out more than 10,000 yuan of money, Zhao Kuangyi's money and silk in his hands became even more nervous, but the more he wanted to take it, and with money in his hands, he did not raise many people! The real Zhao Kuangyi took out more than 10,000 yuan of money, and the economy in his hands was extremely tense.
This is not something Song Jiu can see.
