Chapter 1614: With the support of the imperial court, the capital will be safe
"Your Majesty, please consider this matter before we discuss it!"
Shi Hao hesitated to speak. After a moment of silence, he secretly gritted his teeth and said again, "Marquis Zhongwu was ordered to inspect the Fifth Northwest Road before. Now, if we continue to let him take charge of the Fifth Northwest Road, there may be something wrong!"
Zhao Shen was not surprised by Shi Hao's reaction!
It is indeed not easy to let Shen Tang control these roads. There will definitely be many opponents in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. This is why he asked for help from Shi Hao! Without Shi Hao's support, he, the emperor, would not be able to be in the court. Decide with one word.
Zhao Shen poured a cup of tea for Shi Hao with his own hands, and then said firmly, "Weng Zhi, of course I know what you are worried about! However, I can trust Shen Tang!"
"Since Shen Tang became an official, he has saved the country from many disasters and sorrows. Without Shen Tang, what would the Song Dynasty be like now?
Let’s not talk about Shen Tang’s pacification of Chengdu Fulu, but let’s talk about the two wars with the Jin Dynasty. Can our Song Dynasty win?
Not to mention, Shen Tang was kind to me in saving my life before!"
"I told Shen Tang before that I have no doubts about you and my ministers! Now that Shen Tang is determined to help me achieve my great cause, how can I not respond!"
Zhao Shen's words made Shi Hao silent for a long time, and finally he responded, "I will do my best to help your majesty!"
A few days later, at the court meeting, with the support of Shi Hao, Zhao Shen issued an order. After the Xia State mission provided the promised resources, Shen Tang led his troops north to help Xia State send troops to the Jin State.
In addition, Shen Tang was enthroned as the Xuanfu Envoy of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and the governor of Lizhou Road, Chengdu Road, Tongchuan Road and other four military routes! He was given the Emperor's Sword to control the four states! The Imperial Privy Council, the Ministry of War, and the Third Division fully cooperated. Shen Tang dispatched various troops and horses, mobilized corresponding grain, grass, and military pay!
Although there were many opposition forces in the court, Shi Hao persisted. Although Liu Gong didn't know what was going on, he acquiesced when he saw Zhao Shen. In addition, he and Shen Tang were old friends, so they also supported it! In addition, all ministries The opinions are not unanimous, but there are also many voices of support.
The officials from various ministries who had gone to Chengdu Fulu have returned. Although these people are not high-ranking officials in the ministry, they still have considerable momentum.
As the saying goes, eating people is short of mouth! They have benefited a lot from Chengdu Mansion, so naturally they will speak a word for Shen Tang this time.
So, as this matter was finalized, the entire court began to move quickly! A sealed letter from the Privy Council and the Ministry of War was quickly sent to Chengdu Mansion, and the Third Division under Ma Shao continued to mobilize grain, grass, and military pay to transport it towards Chengdu Mansion!
Although there are still many people who are afraid of war, they have to admit that the previous foreign wars of the Song Dynasty also gave many people courage! If they can take the opportunity to get back some of their homeland this time, they will naturally be proud of it. !
This matter also caused a great sensation among the people. Although Wu Lin deliberately provoked the last war between Song and Jin, the people did not know these things. In the eyes of most people, it was also the Jin Kingdom who took action first. The Song Dynasty counterattacked.
And this time, just like the Northern Expedition, it was a rare initiative of the Song Dynasty.
Therefore, countless people with lofty ideals supported the Song Dynasty in this battle in their own way...
Just when the Song Dynasty was once again turbulent, the war in Japan gradually calmed down.
Tengmu successfully captured Heian-kyo. Taira Munemori took Emperor Anto and fled from Heian-kyo, and took most of the Taira clan's troops to Shikoku. Finally, they stopped at Yashima Castle in Sanuki Province, and Emperor Anto issued an edict. Call on all countries to attack Ping An Jing to put an end to the chaos!
However, most countries are now in chaos, so this order is basically ignored.
The previous Emperor Takakura has abdicated, and the Zen Emperor Adoku was taken away by Taira Munemori, so there is no current emperor in the palace.
Under the pressure of Nioh, Emperor Go-Shirakawa canonized Nioh as the new emperor, with the title "Sanjo", which is the Sanjo Emperor.
The canonization of the emperor requires not only the elders of the royal family, but also the cooperation of the three artifacts.
It is a pity that the three artifacts were packed away with Emperor Anto when Taira Munemori fled. Therefore, the canonization of Emperor Sanjo was without the three artifacts! This is just like the inheritance of the Central Plains Dynasty without the imperial seal, which is somewhat unfair.
The words are not smooth.
At the same time, this also meant that in Japan, the situation of two emperors juxtaposing began to emerge, which also laid the foundation for subsequent turmoil.
After becoming the emperor as a nio, he naturally wanted to bestow great honors on his officials.
Teng Wu was directly canonized as Taizheng Minister, becoming the highest official position under the emperor! Minamoto Yoritomo was named the left minister, ranking below Teng Wu, and Minamoto Yoshinaka was named the right minister.
However, due to the previous bet between Tengwu and Minamoto Yoshinaka, and the considerable strength of the Minamoto brothers, in order to prevent Minamotoshi from becoming the next Taira clan, Minamoto Yoshinaka was consecrated as the lord of Awazu (also known as Settsu) country, and,
He will also rule the neighboring countries of Harima and Tamba.
Regarding this point, Inioh certainly has other thoughts. Awazu is adjacent to the mountain castle to the west. If Minamoto Yoshinaka is restless, he can send troops to suppress it in the shortest possible time. Moreover, although Harima is within his jurisdiction,
Many manor owners in Harima are dominated by the power of the Taira clan.
In addition, Awazu faces the Sanuki Kingdom above Shikoku across the sea across Awaji Country. If Taira Munemori wants to do something, he must first confront the power of Minamoto Yoshinaka. In other words, Minamoto Yoshinaka has become the leader of Heian Kyo.
West gate.
Although Tengwu's status in the court is high, he is not Japanese after all. In addition, even if his subordinates are powerful, they are only in limited number, so if necessary, everyone will reject him.
Although Minamoto Yoritomo's power is powerful, they are restrained and suppressed by the power of Teng Wu, so they will naturally become rivals.
Although Minamoto Yoshinaka also enjoyed the fruits of victory, he was eventually driven out of Heian Kyo, which also intensified the conflicts between Minamoto Yoshinaka, Teng Wu, and even the Gen clan!
Although Japan is a remote island country, this balancing method has been learned from the Central Plains Dynasty! Therefore, even if Nioh does not have direct power in his hands for the time being, the court is still relatively stable.
As for the chaos in other countries, Yiwang is not in a hurry to quell it! Anyway, he is the orthodoxy now, and no matter who wins the chaos among the countries, they must show their allegiance to him.
Even if there are a few who are unconvinced, they can send troops and horses to suppress them when the time comes, or directly ask neighboring countries to attack them.
Nowadays, it is most important for him to secure his position as emperor first.
But Teng Wu didn't care too much about his official position, which was more than ten thousand people below him! Again, what's the point of being an emperor here?
Therefore, although he is a minister of Taizheng, he does not care about government affairs. Even when he goes to court, he decides based on his mood.
