There are also many scholars around me, and this truth makes it difficult for those who used to boast of being knowledgeable and knowledgeable to find fault.

It was also the first time that I knew how extraordinary this family was. I heard that I had been classmates with Yixi Weishe at Meishan Academy, which was really amazing.

Being defeated by members of his own enemy group in the field where he was best at it, Bingchang not only did not feel angry, but also appreciated Jialiang even more.

This is the standard for true talents. Both theory and practice are outstanding. Looking around, there is only one Li Qing who can match him.

Li Qing is similar to Jialiang. He is well-read in poetry and books, but he is very pragmatic. Many people around him have the bad habit of showing off their literary talent to show off their talents, but Li Qing does not.

Just as he was thinking of this, the chamberlain came to report: "Your Majesty, Li Qing is waiting for orders outside the palace."

"Xuan." Bingchang gathered his mood and prepared to receive his most valued ministers.

Li Qing was in his thirties, and his ancestral home was a Han Chinese on Qinfeng Road. Later, his family moved to Mingsha and became a Xixia native. There have been people from the Xixia clan who served as officials in Xixia in the past dynasties.

The young man traveled with his uncle for business, and visited the Qin, Song and Liao Kingdoms.

The situation in the Liao Kingdom deeply touched the young Li Qing. This was a country similar to Xixia, which was founded on nomadism. However, since the Chanyuan Alliance, the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty had not heard of the military revolution for eighty years, and their economy and people's livelihood had improved.

achieved great development.

Then why can’t Xixia?

Seeing that young Li Qing was ambitious, his uncle joked with him and asked, what would you do if you were the prime minister of Xixia?

At that time, Xiao Li Qing was not ashamed and said: "Promote culture and education, improve people's livelihood, open trade routes, and have enough food for soldiers. Connect the Qingtang, Hengshan, and Liao Kingdoms, and compete with the Song Dynasty for the entire Hetao area."

"It is covered by Hetao, Qilian, Helan, Kunlun, Heishan, and Hanhai. If you have been nourished here for twenty years, the world will not be at peace."

His uncle was shocked and thought that Li Qing's bones were unique and that he was a dragon or a phoenix among men, so he made great efforts to train him and began to hire famous scholars and scholars to learn everything from literature and martial arts to bows, horses, spears, and swords.

By the time he was in his early thirties, Li Qing had become a famous general in Shazhou. After Bingchang came to power, he transferred him back to Xingqing Mansion and served as the minister of the royal family.

Even when he was the commander-in-chief of the army, Li Qing often dressed up as a scholar. Now when he came in, he was still wearing a scholar's shirt. He was very handsome, especially his eyes, which were lively and lively. He was a famous handsome man in Xixia.

Li Qing came to the palace, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Li Qing, is here to see you."

Bingchang waved his hand: "Li Qing, I have told you many times not to be so restrained."

Li Qing bowed and said: "The order of etiquette is superior and inferior and cannot be abolished."

Bingchang couldn't help but shake his head: "In the middle of the court, there is only one family member and you, and you still know how to observe etiquette in front of me. How can the other ministers take me seriously?"

Li Qing whispered: "Your Majesty, these words are of no use except venting your frustration. Please be careful what you say in the future."

Bingchang said displeasedly: "Is it true that as the emperor, I can't even complain?"

Li Qing did not back down: "The emperor has his own laws for his advancement and retreat, his joy and anger, not to mention... now is the critical moment."

Bingchang asked: "Have preparations been completed for the restructuring?"

"Exactly," Li Qing said: "In the next few months, Your Majesty can practice etiquette, make crowns and clothes, and announce the restoration of the Han system at the Zhengdan meeting!"

"Okay! Thank you for your hard work, sir." Bingchang was overjoyed: "Ministers of the DPRK, how is the contact with you?"

Li Qing said: "Nowadays, those who are willing to restore the Han system include not only the pro-party members of the old clan of Wei Mingjia, but also the states and roads connected with Qingtang, Hengshan, Hehuang, and Jingwei."

"Those people have long been accustomed to contact with the Han people. Many of them have been wearing Han clothes, speaking Chinese, practicing farming, and doing business with the Song people. It is easy for them to restore the Han system."

After speaking, he said to Bingchang in a low voice: "I also want to report some great news to your majesty. Tang Silang, the wealthy businessman who controls the Song Dynasty goods in the four states of Qingtang Hengshan and Yanxia Weilan, we have also taken over!"

"Really?!" Bingchang was delighted: "What did he say?"

Li Qing said: "Tang Silang said that the Liang family in Xixia is now very powerful, and he and the Liang family are doing a lot of business."

"But from the perspective of merchants' interests, the Liang family is an important customer, and Your Majesty is also a potential customer."

"He can promise His Majesty to use his connections to establish a communication channel for Your Majesty with the Song Dynasty. However, he will not participate in the specific matters and is only responsible for conveying the intentions of both parties."

"Nine Classics, Buddhist scriptures, there is no problem with these, but the science of science and engineering is not a major science. He can get basic arithmetic, basic physics, and basic chemistry a little difficult. As for "Financial Theory", he has not even heard of it.

I’ve heard about it, but I guess it’s hard to find even in Bianjing City.”

Bingchang asked: "What about weapons?"

"Tang Silang said that weapons are strictly prohibited." Li Qing said with a bitter smile: "But he has channels to get some long knives from the Erlin Department, but don't even think about the crane-shank crossbow. No matter how much money you make, it's useless.

Only if you have a good head, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless you pay a sufficient price and get the approval of the Song Dynasty government and the emperor."

"At what cost?"

"Tang Silang said that if you want to smuggle weapons from Erlin, you must pass through Minzhou and inform the distant army. Gao Zunyu, the governor of Minzhou, is the uncle of the emperor of Song Dynasty."

"The emperor of the Song Dynasty sent Gao Zunyu to lead the army, with the purpose of allowing his uncle to perform meritorious service, be promoted to military governor, become an envoy, and become his own power to control the court."

"If Xixia can contact Uncle Gao and return the land of Quye and Henan to the Song Dynasty, and let Uncle Gao take charge of this great achievement, let alone Erlin's long sword, crane-shank crossbow, and even... shaking thunder."

"Really?!" Bingchang suddenly stood up and paced back and forth in the hall: "If we can get the thunder, great things will happen."

Li Qing said: "The Quye River is originally the boundary river between the two countries. The two sides have an agreement, and officials and private parties are not allowed to cultivate it."

"Because the land is fertile and the water and grass are abundant, people in the Song Dynasty have been illegally cultivating the land since the Renzong Dynasty, and some state officials even used it as official farmland."

"After Prime Minister Liang took power, he negotiated with the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty state government brought the case to the Transportation Department, and the Transportation Department strictly enforced the ban in accordance with the treaty."

"Afterwards, the Liang clan invaded the land, and the idle fields north and south of the Quye River fell into the hands of the Liang clan, becoming an important source of wealth for them."

Bingchang said quietly: "In other words, if we return Henan, in addition to getting strong support from the Song Dynasty and stabilizing the border, we can also attack the Liang family, right?"

Li Qing quickly bowed: "Your Majesty, this matter is definitely not feasible. After all, there is great domestic resistance, and Liang will not agree to it."

Bingchang was anxious: "Then think of a way quickly..."

Li Qing cupped his hands and said: "This matter needs to be done skillfully, and we cannot act so recklessly."

"Fortunately, I have already contacted the Song Dynasty. I will convey this intention to the Song Dynasty first and see their reaction."

"If Uncle Gao Guoji of the Song Dynasty can initiate a proposal to reaffirm the national boundary with Daxia, then Quye Henan will definitely become the focus of the dispute during the negotiations. If the situation is pushed forward by then, it will be too late for Liang to refuse."

Bingchang nodded with satisfaction: "I have become much more relaxed since I got help from you, and I am no longer like a fish in a rut. When everything is finalized and the strategy is decided, no one but you will do it!"

Li Qing bowed and said: "Your Majesty, you must learn from the Queen and implement more hunting strategies. In addition to judging whether your subordinates are capable, you can also win over the leaders of various ministries. According to my observation, the Baotai Military Division is ruling Yuzang Huama.

He is your Majesty's cousin, and he has always hated the Liang family's dictatorship."

"Except for the Weiming family and Yuzang Huama, the rest of the people such as Xi made the city guard Yin Boduo, and the partial general Sidu Luopan also supports your majesty."

"Even Li Wenzhao from Tiandu Mountain sent people to contact him, saying that your Majesty has the appearance of a wise king and has the heart to recover. As long as he issues an imperial edict, he is willing to stand up for the rebels and protect the emperor!"

Li Wenzhao is now quite powerful. Tiandu Mountain is the palace of the founding emperor. Liang Yongneng, Jia Liang, and Liang Yiduo buried several times to encircle and suppress them. However, Li Wenzhao relied on favorable terrain and elite soldiers to resolve them one by one. With the overt and covert assistance of the Song Dynasty, the campaign became more and more successful.

The greater the power, the more consolidated the position, like a hidden mountain, becoming a barrier for the Song army in Jingwei.

However, after Liang Zuo's death, Li Wenzhao no longer pursued his previous slogan of overthrowing the Xia Kingdom, and was no longer so passionate. Liang was also unwilling to waste national power in a head-on confrontation with this powerful strategist, and the war between the two sides finally came to an end.

Shaanxi has enjoyed stability and development in recent years, and Li Wenzhao has contributed a lot to attracting firepower.

So many forces are optimistic about him, which makes Bingchang a little surprised: "Then I will work hard to love you and continue to contact you. At this year's imperial meeting, we will use the plan of external chiefs to enter the Xingqing Mansion. We will announce a change of direction and restore the Han system.

"

"After that, Aiqing sent an envoy to the Song Dynasty to discuss the national boundary. Quye, Henan, is the land of the Song Dynasty. I can give it to you!"
