Of course, Zhao Huan was not interested in custodying Wang Yue's true intentions...

He still has a fart to say now.

At this time, Wang Yue asked him to add Jiuxi, and he probably had to add it.

Twenty thousand elite cavalry were stationed in Qingcheng and Yujin Garden. There were 5,000 patrols in the city, and 100,000 militias that could be mobilized at any time. Although there were more than 20,000 imperial guards and Western troops belonging to the court, and 50,000 imperial guards belonging to the court outside, the former was not ready to fight at all, and the latter was also ready to collapse at one touch. In this case, Wang Yue had the final say in Kaifeng.

He can do whatever he wants!

Zhao Huan then appointed Zhang Shuye as the primate, and Liu Fu learned about the affairs of the Privy Council, which was considered to be a reconstruction of his court.

In addition, Yan Gong, who had just entered the court, was promoted to the title of Prince of Zhongshan, and Hejian and other prefectures were transferred to Yanshan Prefecture Road, and he also added a Tongzhi Privy Council to him.

As for the beauties in the harem, there is no need to say publicly.

In short, in the next few days, Zhao Huan and his prime ministers cleaned up the mess, and at the same time reiterated the previous edict of intercepting his father, and also issued an edict to the escaped princes and nobles. If they did not come back within a month to re-report their duties, all of them were dismissed and imprisoned for life.

Including the royal family.

But these are useless.

His father was still continuing to move south, and in fact he did not even reduce his speed. Just five days later, his father had arrived in Chuzhou. Although local officials in Chuzhou had received the imperial edict, they did not stop him on the grounds that they were worried about endangering the Supreme Emperor, and even provided supplies to the team. In fact, they were not able to intercept. Liu Yanqing and his son were under three thousand elite cavalry, as well as Cao Yan and some bought Western Army, a total of five thousand troops to protect the Supreme Emperor.

These are really not a big deal in the north.

But there are only two generals in total, and Huainan, which has a slap in combat, is invincible.

It's really invincible.

The two generals in Huainan combined are probably only seven or eight thousand infantry, without cavalry.

Fang La has the most say in actual combat effectiveness. Even his rebellious farmers cannot defeat him. How dare such a slag intercept this army like a tiger or wolf?

What's more, there is a Supreme Emperor.

On the tenth day after Wang Yue arrived in Kaifeng, the Supreme Emperor had already visited Yangzhou.

Moreover, Tan Zhen and Song Huan led an army of 10,000 from Zhenjiang to Yangzhou to welcome the Supreme Emperor. Then Zhao Ji established his camp commander in Yangzhou, using Yuwen Cuizhong as the camp commander, and then sent his imperial edicts to various parts of Jianghuai, Jingzhe through Song Huan's establishment and shipping envoys.

Three main contents.

First, Huainan, Zhejiang and other troops sent a report to the Beijing corner and ordered them to be intercepted and not allowed to be released and the command was to be ordered.

That is, governments in the southeast are not allowed to pass any official documents to the capital Kaifeng.

Second, the two generals and generals of Hangzhou and Yue, the generals of Jiangdong Road, and the generals of Zhuzhou were not in charge, as well as local soldiers, archers, etc., before they could unite and start a campaign, they would wait for command and call the command first. If the number of people had been sent, the report would be intercepted.

That is, the troops stationed in the southeast were not allowed to travel to Kaifeng, and the 30,000 former king-supporting soldiers from Zhenjiang were intercepted as guards.

Third, keep the grain to the outline and transport it to the place where it is unloaded.

That is, the southeast is not allowed to transport any materials, including grain, to Kaifeng.

Privy Council.

"Look, this is the Supreme Emperor. I don't want to hide anything for him anymore. We are all our own people. I will clearly say that you may not believe these things, but I can swear to God that this is the imperial edict issued by the Supreme Emperor from Yangzhou. This is all true. This is sent by Lin Chi, the governor of Suzhou who just received the order and written by the Supreme Emperor, rushed to 500 miles, including this letter from the Supreme Emperor. I think you won't know the handwriting of the Supreme Emperor?

Others don’t have the ability to forge his words!”

Wang Yue pushed the urgent report and letter in his hand to Mr. Zhong together.

At this time, all the people who should come have come. Zhong Shidao, Yao Gu, Zhe Keqiu, and even Liu Xi was summoned. His magistrate Cangzhou no longer needs to be done. Come to the magistrate of the Privy Council. Including Zhong Shidao, Yao Gu is the magistrate of the Privy Council.

The Privy Council gathered in the first time.

Zhong Shidao is a military general. Don’t worry about whether he was born in a great Confucian family or not, he is now a military general. On the battlefield, he is the commander and his official title is the governor. These two are military generals. It is true that his family was born in a great Confucian family, but he was cheated by civil officials and was a coolie on the battlefield.

Now he finally got rid of the life of the coolie because he was appointed as the Hebei Xuanfu Envoy as the Tongzhi Privy Council.

Yuwen Xuzhong, the former official of this article, was the younger brother of Yuwen Cuizhong. Although he was not punished, he was removed from his position as the Xuanfu envoy.

After all, this is the commander of the war zone.

Zhao Huan is still afraid that Yuwen Xuzhong will turn against him one day when he and his father go to war!

As for military generals as the Xuanfu envoy, it is not without precedent. Xuanfu envoy is originally a civil or military officer. The previous military general is Di Qing, who also regards the Tongzhi Privy Council as the Xuanfu envoy. This official position is actually the supervisor of the Ming Dynasty. Once the Xuanfu envoy is out, the war zone will take care of what you are, strategy, system, and military governor. In short, everyone will obey orders.

He and Yao Gu looked at the letter silently.

This must be written by the Emperor...

Speaking of his own writing, there is no way to find a capable person to forge this Song Dynasty.

The level is too high, completely exceeding the level that the forger can reach. When the same level can reach the same level in the same era, all of them will die.

The content of the letter was very simple. Lin Chi asked him to give 50,000 guan that Suzhou had originally used for court procurement for use. In addition, he implied that the latter followed his three imperial edicts, but Lin Chi was just demoted by him last year, so he held a grudge against him. After weighing the distance between himself and the two sides, he simply sent these things to express his loyalty in a hurry of 500 miles.

"Everyone, I don't want to say anything else at this moment. Putting aside the cause of this matter, it's useless to entangle those things. The current fact is that the Supreme Emperor has established a new court.

The officials were worried day and night, and when they went to the palace to reduce food, they were not at ease.

The disaster of Xiao Jiang has already begun.

It is said that we were all promoted by the Supreme Emperor, so we should not criticize the Supreme Emperor, but it is related to the tens of thousands of brothers under our jurisdiction, the tens of millions of people in the north, and the life and death of the Song Dynasty. We really cannot stay out of it. The Supreme Emperor established a new court in Jiangnan. What should we do if we northerners do? He intercepted all the wealth of Jiangnan. What should we eat, the guards in the north eat? Our money and food are cut off, and the Jurchens will come over again. What should we use to stop the Jurchens?

The Supreme Emperor only thinks about himself, have we soldiers fighting bloody battles in the north?"

Wang Yue said.

"The King of Zhongshan is right, it is indeed heartbreaking to be so Supreme Emperor!"

Zhe Keqiu said very simply.

Wang Yue was right. Who among the great painters and fathers and sons is actually no big deal for civil officials and military generals.

It shouldn't have been mixed.

But it would be different for a great painter to go to Jiangnan to intercept money and food.

What should he do if he asks the northerners?

The money and grain in Jiangnan accounted for nearly half of the annual income of the Song Dynasty. The southeast, the Jiangnan, Zhejiang and Fujian provinces were rated at 6 million hu of rice per year, which was rated at 6 million hu of rice per year. This was rated at 1 million hu of commercial taxes per year, and this was also given to the capital city. The commercial taxes of the two roads in Jiangnan were also 1 million. This was not the case that he caught the two roads in Huainan were also a big deal.

Especially commercial cities such as Chuzhou and Yangzhou.

Moreover, after he blocked the Yangtze River, some of Sichuan's taxes fell into his hands, and Sichuan was a wallet that was almost equal to Jiangnan in the Song Dynasty, and the Han River shipping was also stuck, which means that the money and grain in the Han River Basin were also in his hands. The annual income of farming in Xiangyang and Tangzhou alone reached 90,000 jin, not to mention that he also cut off export trade in Jiangnan.

Most of the Maritime Services are located in Jiangnan, and the money and food that are used by Guangzhou to save Beijing must also be passed by him.

In other words, he could take away most of the money and food that was originally Jiejing in Jiangnan.

Not less than two-thirds.

These days, they all rely on water transportation, and water transportation must go to the places where he entrenched, such as Sichuan, Han River, Xiang River, and Gan River, all had to enter the Yangtze River in the end, and even the money and food from Guangxi had to enter the Yangtze River. In the end, they all gathered in Zhenjiang where he currently entrenched. If he wanted to cut it off, he would cut it off as much as he wanted.

He was there to be happy and happy.

You can squander whatever you want, just like a mountain of gold and silver. But what will the officials in the north eat, whether it is the army or the food?

Drink the northwest wind?

How can I fight against the Jurchens and Western Xia if I have no money or food?

Rely on the north?

Just kidding, just as the taxes in the north are currently being paid, what can I use to support these? Even food may not be enough, unless the taxes continue to be increased, but this will continue to rebel. In fact, bandits have begun to emerge in Hebei at this time. If the taxes are increased, the bandits are still rising? If the people are not forced, then will they be forced to force these generals and gentry who are actually the landlords?

What a joke?

Why do you take the blame for him?

By the way, the great painter offended not only his son, but he offended everyone in the north.

He offended people, he offended the elderly!

This is no longer the official's own business. This is the common thing for everyone in the north, whether the military or civilian, whether the gentry or the mud legs.

He must not make a fool of himself. He must be brought back no matter what. The Song Dynasty could only have one court and must be in the north. Only in this way can we ensure that the money and food from the south are transported to the north and avoid the northerners taking the blame for the court.

This is all real benefits!

"So, the official has issued an order to treat me as the envoy of the emperor, and I will lead my army south to invite the emperor back, but I feel that I am alone. After all, my people still have to leave a part of them. Once the Jurchens invade, I will also hurry to rescue them quickly. I decided to only bring 10,000 cavalry south, but these are not enough. At least 20,000 cavalry will be required to ensure that the emperor is brought back. Since it is not just my own business, I hope you can get the remaining 10,000."

Wang Yue said with a sincere look.

A group of military leaders looked at each other...
