September of the third year of the Daliang calendar.
After Zhao Song surrendered.
Qiao Lie relied on the protection of the navy to move the government affairs system stationed in Yuncheng to Luoyang.
Women such as Qiongying and Fang Jinzhi also followed.
When the girls arrived in Luoyang, Su Mingzhe spent several days in the harem in order to appease the girls.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the middle of the month, the day of the great court meeting.
Su Mingzhe had to return to Qianyuan Hall and summon all the ministers.
All the ministers have finished their ceremony.
As the prime minister, Qiao Lie first read the "Amnesty Edict" drafted by himself and his officials.
During Zhao Jiji's reign, there were countless unjust, false and wrong cases.
Just in Jingdong and Dongjiang Road, more than half of the prisoners were innocent and unjust.
Therefore, when Su Mingzhe was in Yuncheng, he reminded Qiao Lie that the first thing to do after conquering Zhao Song's territory was to re-trial the imprisoned prisoners.
Now that Zhao and Song surrendered, Daliang suddenly accepted most of Zhao and Song's territory. It would be a waste of time to try every case clearly.
Therefore, the ministers discussed and simply issued an "Edict of Amnesty" to all the imprisoned prisoners and rehabilitated them all.
Su Mingzhe heard it and played it accurately.
Later, Lin Chong, Minister of the Ministry of War, first expressed his congratulations. The chief officials of Qinfeng, Lizhou, Kuizhou, Huainan, Jiangnan and other prefectures complied with the will of God and accepted the rule of the new dynasty.
(Guangnan, Fujian and other places are too far away, and there is Fangla in the middle. Wang Qing blocked it, and the information has not been transmitted yet.)
Later, Lin Chong reported that Chu King Wang Qing and Ming King Fang Laming were stubborn and occupied the two Zhejiang roads, Jingchu and other roads, and they needed to send troops to conquer them.
Su Mingzhe hasn't spoken yet to express his opinion.
Chai Jin, the Minister of Rites, hurriedly reported that the Jin people had sent envoys from the sea and were now living in Sifangguan, asking whether they wanted to form an alliance to attack the Liao Kingdom.
When the ministers in the court heard that the Liao Kingdom was being attacked, Wang Qing and Fang La immediately threw it aside and asked for troops to go out.
Everyone knows that conquering Wang Qing and Fang La is an internal fight.
Even if they win, it is expected and reasonable, and there is nothing to be proud of.
However, if we can defeat the Liao Kingdom, which was founded by barbarians, and regain the Sixteen Youyun Provinces, it will make up for the shortcomings of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and it will definitely be remembered in history.
Both the civil servants and the military generals understood this truth, so when they heard that the Northern Expedition to the Liao Kingdom was about to be launched, they all started shouting.
For a moment, there was chaos in the hall.
Snap——
Snap——
Snap——
Three silent whips sounded.
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
San Dezi scolded:
"quiet!"
Su Mingzhe glanced at San Dezi with satisfaction.
This kid is really discerning. He just showed a little bit of displeasure and he took the initiative to stop the chaos for him.
Compared with San Dezi, the censors responsible for managing order in the palace are simply a bunch of freeloaders!
Seeing that the hall became quiet, Su Mingzhe glanced at Lu Junyi.
Not long after Lu Junyi joined Liangshan, he led the troops to pacify the East Road of Hebei on his own, and made remarkable achievements. Now he is the right minister of the Ministry of War, just below Lin Chong.
After receiving the signal from Su Mingzhe's eyes, Lu Junyi quickly stood up and told him that Su Mingzhe had sent Yue Fei to conquer the Liao Kingdom and recover the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun.
Yue Fei's Northern Expedition to the Liao Kingdom happened in June.
I have to praise Yue Fei for being a natural-born commander. He set off in June and arrived at the border in July.
On the way, Yue Fei did not forget to train his troops. On the second day after arriving, he captured Zhuozhou in one fell swoop. Then he severely attacked the reinforcements, followed them and defeated them, and captured Yanzhou in one fell swoop.
In the following month, Yue Fei worked hard all the way and was able to capture a city in about three days.
By the time Zhao and Song surrendered in August, Yue Fei had captured most of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.
Now that another month has passed, I think all the sixteen Youyun states have been re-integrated into the Central Plains.
When Lu Junyi slowly told the story of Yue Fei's Northern Expedition, all the ministers instantly became speechless.
As expected, Emperor Liang was still the leader of his own village, and he liked to be secretive about everything he did.
In the past, everyone was in Liangshan, and the target of deception was other forces. Everyone felt quite happy about the village leader's "pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger".
Now that I find myself being left out, I begin to feel uncomfortable.
Qiao Lie suddenly felt that he wanted to say something.
After all, he is the Prime Minister of Liang Dynasty, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Even if the emperor is hiding something from heaven and earth, he should not hide it from himself.
But before he could speak, Su Mingzhe raised his voice and said:
"Winter is coming soon, and the Northern Expedition to Liao Kingdom will be stopped in these two months. For now, we still discuss how to attack Wang Qing and Fang La!"
Because Wang Qing separatized the Jingchu Road and Fangla separatized the Liangzhe Road, they blocked the communication between the north and the south of the imperial court.
Especially in Guangdong and Guangxi, Fujian, Jiangnan, Kuizhou, Lizhou and other places, if you want to communicate with the court, you need to travel a long distance.
As the Minister of War, Lin Chong was the first to express his willingness to lead troops on an expedition.
Lu Junyi, as the right minister of the Ministry of War, also hurriedly stepped forward.
Other civil and military ministers, such as Lu Zhishen, Chao Gai, Qin Ming, etc., as well as Zhong Shidao, Zong Ze, etc., all expressed their willingness to lead troops on the expedition.
Su Mingzhe had already had an idea. He first appointed Lin Chong as the commander-in-chief of the east route army to attack Fang La, accompanied by deputy commander-in-chief, Lu Zhishen, Lu Junyi, Chao Gai, Qin Ming and others as the vanguard generals.
Zhong Shidao commanded the army on the Western Route to defend against the constantly encroaching Xixia.
Zongze commanded the army in the middle to encircle and suppress Wang Qing, who was constantly on the run.
The three armies all numbered 200,000, which can be regarded as the strength of the whole country.
A big court meeting didn't end until after noon.
Su Mingzhe came to the second floor and was about to call the dancer to relax himself.
San Dezi reported it, and Concubine Shu Murong Yanran asked to see her.
"Xuan!"
In a moment, Su Mingzhe saw a beauty in a gauze purple skirt walking up from the stairs.
As the emperor, Su Mingzhe's position was facing south.
The place where Murong Yanran went upstairs was the south staircase.
When she walked towards the man with lotus steps, the sunlight passed through the layers of thin gauze purple skirt, and Su Mingzhe immediately saw a beautiful figure.
"Why didn't you notice before that Murong Yanran's legs are so slender?"
"My beloved concubine, come to me!"
Su Mingzhe's eyes were firmly attracted by the pair of straight and slender jade legs.
Murong Yanran came to ask the man for help, but before she could sit down, she found that the man had lifted up her long skirt.
I don't know how long it took.
The sun turns from the south to the west.
The warm sunshine fell on Murong Yanran's body, and her crimson skin seemed to be covered with a thin and thin golden gauze.
The long eyelashes fluttered, and the gentle watery eyes slowly opened.
Murong Yanran saw that the man seemed to have not eaten enough, and his eyes were like a ferocious beast, constantly scanning her body. This not only made her start to feel scared.
If she had known this, she would have waited until her sisters were together at night before talking to men.
"My beloved, are you awake?"
Su Mingzhe noticed the fear in the woman's eyes and felt sorry for the woman's frailty. He could only suppress his anger and ordered the Master Attendant to clean him and Murong Yanran.
After getting dressed again, Su Mingzhe asked why Murong Yanran came to see him.
Since the fifth year of Zhenghe, Murong Yanran has been occupied by him. This beauty has always dressed conservatively, does not like to wear makeup, and stays bare-faced all day long.
However, today Murong Yanran not only lightly applied makeup, but also wore a light gauze skirt and came to her door. This is obviously not in line with her past habits.
When Murong Yanran heard the man's question, she remembered her purpose and quickly said in her clear and soft voice:
"Your Majesty, I am here for my aunt."
Three years ago, Su Mingzhe attacked Qingzhou. The prefect of Qingzhou, Murong Yanda, invited his sister, Concubine Murong, to give Zhao Jiji a pillow breeze, which brought in 100,000 reinforcements.
Afterwards, all 100,000 reinforcements were wiped out.
Zhao Jiji became so angry that he snatched Concubine Murong away from her and threw her into the cold palace.
A few days ago, after Murong Yanran followed the girls to Luoyang, she began to inquire about her aunt's whereabouts.
As a result, several days passed without any news.
In desperation, Murong Yanran finally thought of asking a man for help.
When Su Mingzhe heard that Murong Yanran was looking for his aunt, Concubine Murong, he immediately became interested:
"Sandoku, please send someone to check where the former Imperial Concubine Murong is now. If you find her, bring her back immediately!"
