"So, they hit it off immediately?"

After Zhou Huaian got the results given by many aspects, he couldn't help but sneer: the farce of attempted assassination in the pre-court court was actually a disguised joint force resulted by several forces from both inside and outside, intentionally or unintentionally.

For example, for those external forces, some people hope to create civil strife by sheltering and supporting these remaining remnants of Li Tang, desperate assassination, slow down the Taiping Army's process of pacifying the world, and gain more opportunities to survive;

There are also some people within the Taiping Army who hope that Zhou Huaian will fall here after he will be able to support and influence the infancy of his successors in the future, and change the cruel and harsh national principles for the old dynasty forces, so that the residual influence of traditional scholars under the background of aristocratic families can be returned to the table.

Some people simply took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled waters, or to revenge their former benefactors, used the assassination incident to divert public attention, and snatched out the imprisoned Zhu Youyu, and forced Zhu Laosan to a dead end by divorcing the relationship between Dongdu and Chang'an.

So these plans and plans were actually exposed from the root in an accidental encounter in Qujiang Street Market from the very beginning. In fact, even the successor of the Pavilion Master dressed as a woman and was favored by her favorites, never dreamed that she would be recognized by someone who had met once?

However, this also somewhat alerted Zhou Huaian. Since someone has put his ideas into his infant children, it also means that he needs to be careful of possible loopholes and problems; after all, many talented and stubborn kings have been in the issue of successors throughout the ages.

In front of him, there was a deep love for the sword, but he left behind an Emperor Xuan of Han who was brainwashed by the Confucian scholars and regretted "the prince is the prince!"; in the back, Emperor Yang of Sui, who played the role in front of Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian for the first half of his life, and after ascending the throne, he completely let himself go, causing a big and good head, and who could give him a favor.

Not to mention, there was the Ming Taizu pig father who was born in a monk in later generations. He killed meritorious officials like pigs and dogs and suppressed them for the rest of his life. As a result, he took a look at Zhu Yunwen, the good grandson he personally designated, and was killed by a group of scholars such as Fang Xiaoru and others.

In particular, as a founding king who needs to spend a lot of time and energy to govern the country and expand territory, it is easy to take advantage of the situation of the growth environment and upbringing of his heirs by people with ulterior motives with various positions and demands, which leads to a wrong path since childhood.

Therefore, Zhou Huaian has decided to change his name and surname regularly after he becomes a little sensible, hide his identity, and go to the schools where the corresponding Boys Camp and the Young Soldiers connect, and receive collective life and the circle of peers. At the same time, it is also a way to understand the external situation in disguise.

In this way, after having enough interpersonal experience and vision, a specific object will not be easily impressed and bewitched by a specific object in his life experience; this may be a not very pleasant process for a child's childhood, but since he is the mark left by his descendants and this time and space, this is the inevitable price of burden.

At least, compared to the mediocre talent who was supervised to learn various knowledge voluntarily or involuntarily since childhood, it is much better than the surprise of creating allusions such as "why not eat meat" in front of his ministers in the future; and then surrounded by foreign tribes or rebel troops, and regretting the original result with tears in his eyes.

On the other hand, it is the choice of the heir's teaching staff and group; at least after this lesson, Zhou Huaian will continue to add some content to the review conditions for the background of the corresponding alternate personnel;

For example, in the primary elections conducted by various departments and institutions, the direct relatives within three generations were directly rejected as officials of the previous dynasty, or those who had been suppressed in traditional families and families of families with suppressed situations.

At the same time, the scale of the candidate group is increased horizontally, and young new officials selected from practice are given priority; a certain number of people are regularly selected to join the temporary faculty team to specifically talk about the problems and countermeasures encountered in affairs work, which is also a disguised reward and incentive honor.

The teaching method is no longer a "principal lecture" that is face-to-face, but a random selection of part of the peers and mixing the heirs into it, collectively receiving the corresponding teachers' teachings; at the same time, batch assessment and testing are carried out.

The content of the story not only includes the country that was established and governed (ideology, theory, philosophy and thinking), but also talks about the experiences and lessons of the gains and losses of the rule of the past dynasties, as well as basic common sense such as mathematics, physics and chemistry (tools and methods for cognizing the world), and reorganizing the simple meanings of various schools of thought that have been circulated in the world.

At the same time, the batch and scale of rotation teaching are increased; in this way, no specific object or small group can have the opportunity to leave a deep enough impression and influence in front of the heirs. As for the most critical three views and the way of governing/dragon-slaying techniques, Zhou Huaian must be taught and taught by himself.

Then, Zhou Huaian also considered to designate three or five people to form a special review committee in the future to conduct targeted review of the background, social relations, and teaching content of these teachers; any behavior that exceeds the teaching content will be rejected.

Anyway, problems that can be solved with expected increased costs are not the real problem; compared to the great world that the heirs will face and bear in the future, this additional expenditure and budget content is nothing at all.

Of course, it is another matter if the heirs compete for the more and more descendants in the future. At least as a modern person with a vision and knowledge that has crossed the ups and downs of thousands of years of history and has sufficient auxiliary means, there is no need to mind or beware of the growth and possibility of his heirs.

Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian suddenly remembered that the two children he left in Jiangling had not yet been officially named; and he was currently using the nicknames given by his two mothers (Cao Hongyao and Zhang Yunqing) - A Tan and Youlang, and had a large-scale maintenance group.

After dealing with these temporarily added trivial matters and signing a number of urgent lists of house confiscations, exiles, imprisonment and hand-wrenching; Zhou Huaian couldn't help but want to ask about the results of Han Jiyue's work. However, he received another report from Hedong and was seriously delayed.

Although Zhou Huaian has always paid enough attention to the founder of the Later Tang Dynasty on another historical line, the Han Wuren group of the Daibei vassal headed by the Zhu Xie clan of Shatuo tribe, had maintained sufficient attention and continued investment in intelligence work; but because it was really out of reach, the time was still short and the effect was very small;

Therefore, it was not until the Daibei Group, led by Zhu Xie, took over Hedong Town that it had obtained a breakthrough in intelligence work at some nodes that originally belonged to the Hedong Shogunate and began to send out sporadic messages one after another.

However, most of them are irrelevant daily news, which may be useful as indirect judgments and research on long-term direction and macro-strategy, or indirect reference and confirmation; but there is very little valuable timeliness content.

But this time it seems different. This letter of information sent back from Suizhou (now Suide, Shaanxi) in the north of Guannei Road, adjacent to Shizhou, Hedong (now Suide, Shaanxi) through the Dinghu County/Mengmen Pass (Wubao County, Shaanxi); it mainly comes from the perspective of a minor official who transported the river channel; it reflects a recent situation closely related to the Hedong Army.

It is said that it is a serious crisis of general salt deficiency in Hedong Town. After losing the salt pool imported into the river, the supply of soil and salt from outside the border was cut off, and tens of thousands of vassals entering the pass also showed symptoms such as edema to varying degrees; and the animals they raised had higher demand for salt than humans, and were generally weak and thin.

Therefore, this is in contrast to the large-scale military operations of the Northern Tang regime in Hedong Town, which was eager to go south to seize Hezhong. One of the highlighted details is that a private team frequently set out from Mengmen Pass and crossed mountains and ridges to Yanfu County, Suizhou to trade local salt goods from Yanzhou (now Dingbian County, Shaanxi).

Therefore, behind this Hedong report is a military plan presented by Yang Shihou, the general of the Fourth Army, who was stationed in Boyanzhou and Suizhou; who was responsible for supporting the third detachment and promoting settlement, and at the same time rectifying the local ranch stables and the officer of the Tianmu Stable, and Cao Shixiong, the general of the Fourth Army who was suppressing bandits in the Loess Plateau in the northern Guanbei Province.

In this plan, it was mentioned that the opportunity to take advantage of the general salt shortage in Hedong and nearby prefectures and counties spontaneously break through the blockade to trade; seven new garrison battalions and four reorganized battalions are now deployed in the Wuding River/Shuoshui River Basin in the north of Guanbei; and a surprise attack was launched on Mengmen Pass, which was located in the western barrier of Shizhou (now Luliang City, Shaanxi).

If you can succeed in one fell swoop, you can follow the Red Flood among the mountains and use the help of the light boat transportation to go straight to the city of Lishi, the capital of Shizhou. This is a stalemate situation for the Northern Expedition to Hedong, and open a side gap before the possible heavy snow in winter blocks the mountain.

However, as partial divisions, they are still sufficient for military forces and civilians to fight; however, as heavy firearms to break through the fortifications and break the barriers, there is still a gap in the subsequent medicine and food, which is not enough to support the subsequent battle for more than one month.

Therefore, we need to apply for the Grand Governor's Office in Chang'an to make new budget and material allocation plans, and arrange water transportation and logistics supply for the corresponding Yellow River branch to support the corresponding local campaign process.

But this also means that under the command of the Taiping Army's Grand Governor's Office, five threads in many places (Huaishang, Henan, Hedong, Longxi, Sanchuan) were carried out simultaneously. This also means that the book deficit and emergency reserve inventory that were about to enter the autumn harvest have fallen to a dangerous level again.

At the same time, the latest batch of military bonds (short-term war bonds) will also be paid due in August; although most of them will not be cashed out directly by the holders, they will be converted into agricultural and sideline specialties and industrial products exported by the Taiping Army in various places, including factories, villages and mines.
