Empress Qin was going to have an attack with Zhao Jiaren. Unexpectedly, Zhao Jiaren sent someone back to tell her that she would be doing business outside for two days. Upon hearing this news, Qin Yuzhen couldn't help but feel something was going to be intuition. In many cases, Zhao Jiaren often showed unusual supernatural perceptions.

With this idea, Empress Qin felt that Zhao Jiaren could hide, monks could not hide, and the temple. When he came back in two days, he must make a good calculation of the account. In less than two days, the secretary came to inform Empress Qin again, "The official family is going to the army, I will get the clothes for the change."

"What did he do in the army?" Qin Yuzhen was surprised.

"I don't know why the official family went." The secretary gave a very formulaic answer.

Queen Qin knew that this time it was not Zhao Jiaren who hid out, but something big happened. She didn't ask questions and started to organize her clothes. She handed the suitcase to the secretary. Qin Yuzhen asked: "How long will it take for the official family to come back?"

"I don't know. The official family will go to several places this time, but I won't come back in a day or two." The secretary still answered very standardly.

Qin Yuzhen did not ask if something big happened. At this level, the secretary probably didn't know Zhao Jiaren's specific itinerary. So Queen Qin could only wait at home. The snow had been falling these days. Queen Qin sat next to the heating, looking at the white world outside. In a blink of an eye, she saw the cat holding the radiator and couldn't come down. She would only rub against her when she was hungry.

Days passed day by day and the snow stopped. It didn’t make the snow cold. Qin Yuzhen also went out a few times, and then she felt that it was still more comfortable for cats to be in the warm home. A few days ago, the anger towards Zhao Jiaren was gone. Qin Yuzhen couldn’t help but start to feel sorry for her husband. People in their fifties still had to run outside in this winter. Don’t the old guy know that he is no longer young?

Thinking of this, Qin Yuzhen could only remind himself that the national government is so complicated. He stayed in the warm palace, not to mention the hard work of the place, the collection of information alone was greatly restricted. How could the emperor like his husband tolerate the officials below blinding him?

Zhao Jiaren went out for seven days and sent a telegram to Qin Yuzhen, saying that everything was fine and that it was cold, so he asked Qin Yuzhen to be careful not to catch a cold. After reading the telegram, Qin Yuzhen's anger also dissipated almost. Zhao Jiaren did have unpleasant places in many places, and at least the most basic things were within the scope of human feelings. In the past 30 years, Zhao Jiaren always kept writing letters to Qin Yuzhen when he was away.

Five days later, Qin Yuzhen received a greeting telegram again. Now His Majesty the Queen was worried about whether her husband was eating well outside and whether he was freezing. If the Queen Qin knew that this was the arrangement that Zhao Jiaren had already recorded in the schedule, and the secretary reminded him that day, he might not have been so moved. However, Zhao Jiaren was outside, but he could not care about so much. He also insisted on solving the problem immediately and wrote the telegram manuscript first. After writing it, he completely forgot what he wrote. He felt that at least he wrote it himself. In such a few minutes, his wife was still in his heart.

Just when the Queen Qin was moved, in the conference room of the Song army stationed in Zheng County, there were senior officials in the Song army. Zhao Jiaren sat in the main seat and glanced at the senior officers who followed him. It is said that during the Northern Song Dynasty, there were as many as 800,000 imperial guards. The total number of regular troops in the Song Dynasty now is 600,000. Of which about 100,000 are navies, and the rest are army.

With the current security situation in the Song Dynasty, the Song army south of the Huai River was less than 100,000, and was mainly distributed in areas close to the southwest. The 400,000 main forces in the north were all north of the Huai River. These troops were really wearing strong and holding sharp edges and guarding the border. At this time, most of the 400,000 northern troops gathered near Zheng County for the winter, and the conference room was really full of stars. All the soldiers at the colonel level were staying in the corner.

As a former major, Zhao Qian also stayed in the corner. It was not because he was Zhao Jiaren's eldest son. When Zhao Qian was called to his father by an urgent telegram ten days ago, the telegram made it clear that Zhao Qian was the first president of the Veterans Guidance Association and some things were involved with him.

He rushed to my father in confusion, and Zhao Qian followed him to do odd jobs. From the corner, he could only see a group of military caps and backs. Zhao Qian could not see the senior soldiers in the army, nor could he see his father. Zhao Qian was thinking about the current situation in his heart, and he didn't know how long after the meeting was over, how many senior officers in the seats in the venue could be left. When he arrived at my father, his father had met with senior officers, political commissars, and middle and low-level soldiers, and talked a lot. So Zhao Qian still couldn't help but remember what his father said when summoning the senior officers, "If I'm right, it seems that your biggest dissatisfaction now is that you have paid so much for the country, but you didn't get the benefits you expected."

Every time I think of this sentence in the past few days, Zhao Qian felt a little furious. Especially when he thought of his feelings when he got ten millions of dollars, Zhao Qian was even a little scared. According to general opinion, if a person passes the Jinshi, he will be independent. What he will come out next is his own life. His father Zhao Jiaren passed the Jinshi at the age of thirteen, and forty years have passed. His father's life is undoubtedly a life of fighting.

In the past forty years, his father changed not only the Song Dynasty, but the entire world island. After these forty years, many people have become rich, but they are not as rich as ordinary. Zhao Qian still can't figure out how his father could say so calmly, "The country has paid so much, but has not received the benefits you expect." But Zhao Qian now feels that what he said is probably correct.

Many people have paid a lot for the Song Dynasty, but from the perspective of the military, civil servants undoubtedly get more. It is far more than the military. Now nearly 300,000 Song troops gather in Zheng County for winter, one of the reasons is that the plague broke out in Mongolia. If the army is still placed near the south of Yinshan Mountain, if the plague unfortunately spreads to the north of the Yellow River, these elite soldiers who have no opponents on the battlefield may suffer meaningless losses.

Before the outbreak of the plague, these elite troops had already swept away not many people north of Yinshan. If the plague could pass, it would take at least fifty years to rise up the grassland tribes that could threaten the borders of the Song Dynasty. In other words, the opportunity for the army to make achievements has passed. At this time, the army hopes to get the reward for fighting for the country. Seeing that all the civil servants and families have gained benefits and strictly abide by the three major disciplines and eight points of attention, the military, as the pillar of the Song Dynasty, was extremely dissatisfied.

Zhao Qian felt that he was not unsatisfied with the country. Compared with ordinary people and ordinary soldiers, his efforts were far greater than those of ordinary people from the average line. Zhao Qian's income was completely impossible to measure by the average line. Even the generals of the Song Dynasty, such as Yang Tiexin, combined with his treatment and income, were much worse than Zhao Qian. Some things that Zhao Qian's younger brothers and sisters mentioned accidentally in conversations with Zhao Qian were many people who paid much less for the country than Zhao Qian, but the wealth their family has accumulated over the years is no less than Zhao Qian.

With a strong anxiety, Zhao Qian said nothing and listened quietly to the people in the center of the venue.

Zhao Jiaren didn't know his son's mood, and he couldn't take care of what his family thought at this time. After understanding the dissatisfaction of the troops at this time, Zhao Jiaren was also shocked. The first one that emerged at that time was the glass of wine created by Taizu Zhao Kuangyin to release military power.

From the perspective of military command alone, Zhao Jiaren does not think that he will be weaker than these generals. But the struggle of the army is not like this. If the army’s dissatisfaction reaches the critical point, it will be collective dissatisfaction. Of course, the upper-level soldiers look much different from the grassroots soldiers, but the reason for their dissatisfaction is actually the same. When the war is over, everyone hopes to start a prosperous and peaceful life.

Moreover, Zhao Jiaren also went to the grassroots and asked around and found out what the fuse was. The veterans had occupied many positions before. Now the soldiers found that they could not get more, and there were even fewer than the soldiers before. After all, there were only so many positions, and the medical level of the Song Dynasty has improved now, and the previous groups of people are still lively.

Some people in the army have nonsense ideas and will settle the score sooner or later. However, these people's ideas are pragmatic. If the troops can continue to have more power, they can arrange more people to enter the system. Zhao Jiaren would not think that these people are taking care of grassroots soldiers. They want to borrow the grassroots power to arrange more people from the upper class. There are so many such things in history, and Zhao Jiaren himself is not a pure white rabbit, so he can still figure it out.

Seeing that all the meeting members had arrived, Li Yun, who was in charge of the meeting, stood up and said, "This meeting was about the retirement of the troops. The official hosted the meeting personally. I will be responsible for the guidance process. Have you heard it?"

"I heard it." The generals answered one after another.

"Now, please give me a lecture to the official first." Li Yun began to promote the process.

If it were during the Ming and Qing dynasties, it would be lawless to do this. In the Qing dynasty, the person in charge probably pulled him out and chopped him. But there would be no such problem in the Song Dynasty. In the Xiliu Camp, the Han emperor had to follow the arrangements of the army to work hard. He was not allowed to ride a horse in the camp. The system itself must be respected for a relatively mature civilized country.

Zhao Jiaren stood up and said loudly: "Hello, comrades."

"Hello, the official family!" The generals responded immediately. They don't have to stand up, this is also a system. If the official family is not confident, they probably hope that the generals can kneel down and listen to the lecture. Zhao Jiaren will not have such fear. Correspondingly, the generals respect Zhao Jiaren more because of this.

Zhao Jiaren spoke, "I think that no normal person wants to live a poor life by himself. What do you think?"

There was a silence below first, and some people couldn't help laughing out loud.

Zhao Jiaren first eased the atmosphere, and then continued: "Everyone serves the country, of course, for the country. But if everyone only pays, they are all iron and can twist a few nails. They don't care. If they have parents, they naturally want to rely on their income to fulfill their filial piety to their parents. If they want to fulfill their filial piety, they will definitely not be able to just open their mouths."

Zhao Qian felt a little twitching when he heard it. My father was right, but the Song Dynasty looked prosperous. The court actually had no money. Are there really rich people...

"Where does a happy life come from? It depends on labor to create. I used to worry that I would be too straightforward, so someone would deliberately misinterpret my words. Now I tell you that I oppose getting something for nothing. Now the first step is to kill the landlords who get something for nothing. There are land and wealth. Many comrades in the army have learned courses on means of production and productivity. Some have not learned it. I will take this opportunity to order the society to educate the retired personnel of the army, so that everyone can understand that you only have strength but no land. But it is not okay to treat land as a commodity for sale."

Zhao Qian looked at the officers secretly, and they were probably listening, but a large number of them looked confused. For them, the words of the Zhao official family were too profound.

"I think someone will definitely think that the government is so unfair. I just took out the money and sent it to everyone. Everyone took the money and drank large pieces of meat and enjoyed it for a few years. This life is very refreshing. I know it is very happy, but I want to tell you, what should you do when the money is used up? I heard a story. A young man met an immortal. The immortal said, "If you meet me, you will be destined to help you turn gold with the spell of turning stones into gold. If you point something, I will order you to give it to you. However, the young man refused. What are you guessing it for?"

These words are easy to understand. Many generals' eyes shone and frowned and began to think. Zhao Jiaren kept it a little behind and then gave the answer: "The young man said that gold will be spent one day, and I want to learn some gold."

A lot of noise immediately broke out in the conference room. Although no one dared to cheer loudly, they were quite excited. Indeed, having some gold art means having everything.

"I think someone will definitely think that the government is so unfair. I just took out the money and sent it to everyone. Everyone took the money and drank large pieces of meat and enjoyed it for a few years. This life is very refreshing.
