Three days later.
There are more famous assassins who have turned to Li Zhai, but Li Yong has one thing that is better than this person. He has self-awareness.
He and Yang Jingzong are completely different types of people.
Even if Li Lanhui was awarded the title of Queen Mother in the future, Renzong's reward for him was the highest in history, and Li Yonghe himself remained very low-key.
Therefore, he ignored any of these sudden assassinations.
In fact, in addition to his own personality, there was another factor that he ignored. He was afraid of causing trouble to his sister.
Under the operation of thoughtful people, what happened in Li's house was also spread to Bao Ci Hall.
Since the Jin Dynasty issued the edict to confer Li Lanhui, all the ministers who knew the inside story were eager to know the Queen Mother's true intentions.
Isn't it a temptation to pass the news into the forbidden area at this time?
However, these people's calculations are destined to fail.
When Liu E learned about what happened in Li Zhai, she just laughed it off.
After three days of cold war, the relationship between Liu E and Li Jie has eased.
In fact, the three-day cold war was unnecessary. Since Liu E issued the edict, this matter has turned over.
The reason why there is this Cold War period is simply to find a way out.
Bao Ci Hall.
"Madam, I would like to send General Cao to take charge of the military affairs of Shaanxi Road in the near future. This matter requires Madam's approval."
Although Li Jie had long discussed the strategy of managing the northwest with Liu E, at this juncture, it was best to discuss it with Liu E before making a decision.
"Didn't Sixth Brother say before that General Cao was unwilling?"
Liu E asked unexpectedly: "Why, have you agreed again recently?"
"Um."
Li Jie nodded slightly: "It's just a matter of knowing with emotion and moving with reason."
"After all, if the salt ban policy is revived, the northwest frontier will most likely be in turmoil again. With veterans like Cao Wei here, the court can feel more at ease."
"Is banning salt really a must?"
Even though they had discussed it before, Liu E was still a little worried.
"The military situation is dangerous. If the land in the northwest is corrupted..."
At this point, Liu E paused and then stopped talking, but even if she didn't finish speaking, Li Jie understood what she meant.
Her original words should have been, if the northwest land is corrupted, you and I, mother and son, will become sinners.
After all, the northwest region has finally enjoyed peace for more than ten years.
"My Lady, please be at ease. We will use the power of the border troops to attack the party. The outcome may be 50-50, but in terms of prevention, the victory rate should be 70-80%."
The Great Victory of Sandugu was only about ten years ago. This battle not only frightened the Tubo people, but also brought a turning point in the relationship between Song Dynasty and Tubo.
At the same time, it also shocked the party members.
The Battle of Sandu Valley was not a city defense battle, but a real field battle, and the Tubo people's combat power was not much inferior to that of the party.
It is no exaggeration to say that this battle almost established the situation in the northwest.
Zhang Fangping, the future envoy of the Third Division, commented on this battle like this: The three capitals strengthened the brigade and the Qiang destroyed it, so they have been afraid to move for thirty years.
It was precisely after seeing the bravery of the Song people that Xi Siluo showed his favor to the Song court again and again.
These thighs are thick and need to be hugged!
It was precisely because of this battle that Li Jie dared to implement the salt ban policy. ….
If he didn't have the confidence, how could he start the war lightly?
"Then so be it."
Seeing Li Jie's confident look, Liu E nodded slightly.
With Liu E's approval, the appointment quickly reached Zhongshu.
…
…
…
Political Hall.
Are you in charge of seducing soldiers and horses on the Shaanxi Road?
Seeing this fresh assignment, Ding Wei was startled for a moment. After looking at it carefully for a while, he finally understood the official's intention.
As for this difference
After the late emperor's experience, he had become accustomed to the issue of naming.
Most of the emperors of Zhao and Song had the habit of setting up temporary missions.
You can tell at a glance that this assignment must be a temporary position.
Originally, as a member of the civil servants, Ding Wei should join hands with other civil servants to suppress the military ministers.
But Ding Wei didn't want to care about this matter.
In fact, it’s not that I don’t want to take care of it, but that I can’t and can’t take care of it.
Since nothing can be done, it is better to just destroy it.
Whatever the officials want, what happens over there? Anyway, this country belongs to Zhao and Song Dynasty, not someone else's.
As long as he is not affected, no matter how bad the Song Dynasty is, what will happen?
Wang Zeng, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel a little worried when he saw this order.
Asking Cao Wei to guard Shaanxi Road was clearly to guard against party members.
Based on the reasons derived from the results, officials are determined to restart the salt ban.
'no! ,
'Something must be done! ,
In the afternoon of that day, Wang Zeng made an urgent appointment with Fang Jinyan, the imperial censor. He was going to use the censor's mouth to object to the official appointment.
However, this time the target is no longer a ban on salt, but a civil-military battle!
That's right, Wang Zeng would rather start a new round of advocating civility and suppressing military force than see the war in the northwest begin again.
During the Five Dynasties, all feudal lords and towns were warriors. At that time, these vassals and towns were proud of their power. Not only did they not pay attention to the literati, but they also devalued them.
Shi Hongzhao, a military commander in the Later Han Dynasty, even said that to pacify the court and deal with troubles, all he needed was a spear and a broadsword, such as an awl (writing brush), which was of no use.
Now, the events of the Five Dynasties are still vivid in our minds, so neither the southern scholars nor the northern scholars are willing to see the military officials rise again.
The cake is so big, and the civil servants can’t even share it themselves, so why should they give more to the military ministers?
then.
Under Wang Zeng's instruction, Fang Jinyan concocted a letter overnight, targeting the military officials.
[I have heard that your Majesty wants to send Cao Wei to the west. This is because your Majesty is concerned about the far-reaching affairs on the border. (First, let me praise His Majesty for his foresight)
However, when I heard about the important events of the war and state, I stopped fighting and used force. (Changing the conversation to express attitude)
A good soldier is an ominous weapon. (From the Tao Te Ching, cite scriptures, obtain political endorsement, and occupy the high ground first)
When our ancestors were in Pingyuyu, every time they raised troops and mobilized the masses, it was not for their own sake. (Here is a subtle criticism of Li Jie, the troops are used for his own selfish interests)
During the time of the late Emperor, he was quite tired of fighting. Since the Jingde Peace Conference and the Chanyuan Alliance, the barbarians are now submissive, and they embrace distant lands. This is the great virtue of an emperor. (Peace is hard-won, great events are about to happen, officials must not be confused)
Moreover, warriors who fight fiercely, achieve small successes, and are rewarded by nobles and prestige must be tolerated, but they often cannot protect themselves, which is harmful to the country and to their families. (The picture shows the dagger, attacking the general)
This must be observed! 】
(PS: This passage was originally said by Wang Dan and Song Zhenzong. It is a quote here. After all, our level is limited and we cannot write it.)
Originally, in Wang Zeng's plan, Fang Jinyan's Zazi was the first shot in the counterattack!
However, as soon as the shot flew out, the plan fell apart!
And all this stems from a forbidden edict.
After seeing this letter, Li Jie gave Fang Jinyan his official position without saying a word!
This move shocked the world!
Isn’t this just being punished for words? .
