For the next few days, the city of Bianjing was peaceful and quiet.
If anything happens, it only happens in places where most people don't pay attention.
For example, Yongchen and Zhang Wei of the Song Dynasty measured the residences in Jing'an Square.
A total of one hundred and fifty-six private houses were measured, including one hundred and thirty courtyards, and the rest were all large houses with between twenty and thirty to forty-fifty sills.
Needless to say, these mansions are where some people in Bianjing keep their wives.
These houses are also famous residences in Bianjing City.
Generations of dignitaries from Bianjing have rented them to house some beauties who were inconvenient to take home but whom they liked very much.
You may have doubts, do the dignitaries in Bianjing City need to maintain an outside wife?
This means you don’t understand the Song Dynasty.
I think back then, the Zhen Temple still kept Zhang Xianming in Zhang Qi’s home!
Later, Zhao Ji also raised Master Li in this Jing'anfang?
Even the emperor has some women who are not suitable to take back, let alone others?
Song Yongchen and Zhang Yi spent a lot of time counting and measuring the residential buildings in Jing'anfang.
The next step is to acquire the residential houses in Jing'anfang, and then find a way to house these people.
Of course this will take some time, maybe a month or so.
In addition to Jing'anfang, the newsboys of Bianjing New Newspaper also changed their residence.
Under Zhao Xu's instructions, these children moved from Yongtaifang to Chongqingfang in the north wing of Bianjing New Town.
In this square there is the abandoned official office of the old Bianjing Pai'an Division North Division.
The so-called Pai'an Division is the agency in charge of water transportation and grain transportation in Bianjing. It was formerly divided into four divisions, southeast, northwest and southeast, each in charge of the Bianjing River.
Among them, the Northern Division is in charge of water transportation along the Guangji River.
During the Xining Reform, the entire Pai'an Division was merged into the Third Division, and Yuanfeng was reorganized and merged into Sinong Temple.
Because the Guangji River is affected by the sediments of the Yellow River and has less flow, it is now difficult to play the same role as it did in the early days of the Republic of China.
Therefore, now the Pai'an Division of Sinong Temple no longer has the Northern Division, and the entire Northern Division has been merged into the Southern Division. The Southern Division is in charge of the water transportation of Cai River, Huimin River, and Guangji River.
As a result, the Beisi Government Office originally located in Chongqingfang was abandoned.
Zhao Xu simply reused the waste and transformed these official offices into places for the newspaper boys to live, study, exercise and live.
Time flies, and March Xinsi (24) is here in the blink of an eye.
This morning, Zhao Xu got up, thinking it was another ordinary day.
But Feng Jing was waiting in front of his bed with a letter from the General Secretary.
"Everyone, the memorial to Lu Jiawen, the pacifier of Youjiang, the capital of Guangxi, has arrived."
"Oh!" Zhao Xu nodded.
Ever since Zhao Xu lost his temper during the Han Jie case, Tong Jian Si no longer dared to neglect him.
Regarding matters related to Zhao Xu, no matter how late he comes to Beijing, he will always be sent to Funing Palace first.
Zhao Xu took the memorial and asked, "When was the memorial that Lu Jia asked about sent to the palace?"
"Last night at five o'clock." Feng Jing replied.
"Oh!" Zhao Xu nodded.
The palace restrictions in the Song Dynasty were very strict. In theory, once the palace door was locked, no one except the emperor could enter or leave.
During the Ren Temple, there was a fire in the palace, and the governors were blocked outside the palace gate and were not allowed to enter the palace until dawn.
However, memorials involving military affairs could be sent to the palace in a hanging basket through the Tongjian Department.
After opening Lu Jiawen's memorial, Zhao Xu asked again: "Did the two palaces make copies?"
Feng Dingding nodded.
Zhao Xu then lowered his head and looked at Lu Jiawen's memorial.
This was the first memorial written by Lu Jiawen to Zhao Xu after he took office.
In the memorial, Lu Jiawen reported that he had arrived in Guihua Prefecture on Wushen Day (20) in the second month of the leap month as ordered.
And in Wuhedi, Guihua Prefecture, the Duda Youjiang pacification envoy office was established.
In addition, he also met local chieftains such as Nong Zhihui and Nong Shengde.
This is roughly the content. The date of submission is Guihai (the sixth day of the third month) in the spring of the first year of Yuanyou, which is eighteen days ago.
Zhao Xu calculated the time.
"It took almost fifteen days from Wushen day in the second month to Guihai day in the third month. In fifteen days, Lu Jiawen established a local organization that could perform his duties and connect with the chieftain..."
"Lu Jiawen is really a talent!" Zhao Xu murmured to himself.
In this era, it was naturally extremely difficult to start from scratch and establish an official office in a chieftain place where the Song Dynasty had never truly established actual rule.
Even though the responsibilities of this official office only have economic rights.
But convincing the chieftain is a difficult problem in itself.
And Lu Jiawen did it!
It only took fifteen days!
Really awesome!
He is indeed a talented person who was able to build the city's business within a few months.
Now, Zhao Xu began to look forward to it, and Lu Jia asked how much land could be scraped north of Jiaozhi every year starting from next year.
After thinking about it, Zhao Xu told Feng Jing: "Prepare the pen and ink. I want to ask Lu Jia for the writing edict."
Feng Jing was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered his head: "No."
After a while, the relevant pen, ink, paper and inkstone were ready.
Zhao Xu walked to the desk, sat on a chair specially made for his height, dipped his pen in ink, and began to write.
It was actually against the rules for the emperor to issue edicts directly to local officials.
In the tradition of the Song Dynasty, the emperor's edicts were generally only addressed to: prime ministers, privy envoys, and princes.
Other ministers, strictly speaking, can directly reject this kind of edict that has not been drafted by Hanlin bachelor/zhongshusheren, reviewed in the event, and sealed by the chief executive.
One sentence: This is a chaotic order, and the minister dare not obey the imperial edict, which is enough to make the emperor so embarrassed that he picks his feet.
But the problem is - few people dare to refuse to accept the emperor's edict.
Since the Song Dynasty, people with such courage can clearly count on their ten fingers.
Because the emperor would kill someone if he was embarrassed.
For those who offend the emperor, the emperor has ten thousand ways to make his life worse than death.
At most, a few drops of crocodile tears will be shed after the person is tortured to death.
Then use a sentence: I was just a little willful for a while, and I didn’t expect this to happen!
The matter was dismissed.
Is there anyone who can pursue justice from the emperor?
In the Song Dynasty, this kind of matter where the emperor issued an edict to directly interfere with local or provincial affairs was called "internal surrender".
Zhao Xu picked up his pen and quickly wrote the contents of the edict.
After checking it, he picked up the personal seal he carried with him and stamped it.
Then, Zhao Xu handed it to Feng Jing and asked: "After sealing this hand edict, send it to the Office of Tongjian, who ordered the Office of Tongjian to send this hand edict to Mr. Zhang of Guangxi."
Lu Jia asked whether it was better to go to the Queen Mother now.
Zhao Xu could not directly issue an edict to Lu Jia, so he could only convey it through Zhang Dun.
"No!" Feng Jing took the order and left.
Zhao Xu squinted his eyes and looked south.
"Guangxi's battle report, it will be time to enter Beijing in a few days, right?" Zhao Xu thought.
This is strictly the first battle after taking the throne.
Last year, Lu Huiqing's attack on the Western bandits was strictly speaking a border conflict.
The Song army only won the battle, but they did not develop any strongholds in Hengshan, nor did they carry out any devastating blows to the border towns of the Western Bandits.
Conflicts like this happened countless times during the long Song-Xia war and are not worth mentioning.
But things were different when Zhang Dun went south.
As long as he wins, Zhao Xu will immediately start the propaganda machine of Bianjing Newspaper.
He had already thought of the title - Five Thousand King's Division Goes to Jiaozhi!
Five thousand forbidden troops can spread thousands of miles and conquer a country.
As long as Bianjing Xinbao repeats these things a thousand times in different ways and from different angles.
Then, I am afraid that even the Liao and Dangxiang people will believe that the Song Dynasty really only used five thousand people to expand thousands of miles of land in the south and conquer a country.
As for the local army in Guangxi, the Dong and Ding gathered by the chieftains, and the leading parties in the north of Cochin?
None of that matters!
Don't worry, the combined strength of these forces may be ten times the strength of the Song army going south.
Let me ask you - did the Song Dynasty only send 5,000 forbidden troops south, and then expand the territory thousands of miles, and even conquered Jiaozhi?
This is the true meaning of journalism and media studies.
Starting from Goebbels, it has been used repeatedly by countries around the world and created countless miracles.
…
Guangyuan City.
Yang Jingtong stood at the top of the city, looking at the siege equipment that had been built below the city.
A huge trebuchet has been deployed outside the city.
There are more than ten huge watchtowers with a height of three feet, displayed in front of the trebuchets.
After besieging the city for ten days, the Song army finally appeared outside the city.
They were Guangxi soldiers and horses from Yongzhou and Guizhou.
Those terrible siege weapons were built by these people in the past three days.
Just this morning, the Song Army launched a tentative attack.
Hundreds of stones were thrown on the top of Guangyuan City.
Dozens of people were killed and more than a hundred were seriously injured.
More than a dozen of the defensive equipment on the top of the city were smashed.
The blood stains on the city wall have not dried up until now.
"Why haven't the Taiwei's reinforcements arrived yet?" Yang Jingtong stretched his neck and looked to the south.
It was already difficult for him to hold on.
After ten days of siege, half of the food stored in the city had been consumed.
Many people in Guangyuan City are already catching mice and digging for earthworms to feed themselves.
Now, the only ones who can still have enough to eat are the more than 3,000 Dong Ding who are his direct descendants.
Dissatisfaction in the city is spreading.
It is very likely that someone is already thinking of selling his Yang family and surrendering to the Song army outside the city.
Yang Jingtong was thinking anxiously when the Song Army camp outside the city burst into cheers.
It seems like some big shot has arrived!
Yang Jingtong reluctantly stretched his neck, trying to see clearly who was coming into the Song Army camp.
Unfortunately, he couldn't see anything.
But soon, he no longer needed to think about who was coming to the Song Army camp?
Because on this afternoon, the Song army outside the city fired hundreds of letters of surrender into Guangyuan City.
There is a signature on this letter of persuasion to surrender.
Zhang Dun, a bachelor of the Zizheng Palace of the Song Dynasty, was the envoy of economic strategy and pacification in Guangxi, knew the military and state affairs of Guizhou, was the envoy to encourage farmers within the administration, and was the envoy to observe and deal with the affairs within the administration!
"It's not Lu Huiqing!" Yang Jingtong was happy at first, and then his pupils dilated: "It's Zhang Dun who opened Meishan back then?!"
It’s better to let Lu Huiqing come!
Lu Huiqing has only become famous over the years.
But Zhang Dun and Zhang Zihou's evil reputation had already spread to Jiaozhi.
But in Nanjiang, there were so many people killed that even the people of the Southern Dynasties themselves were frightened. They said: Nine out of ten innocent people were killed, and the river was covered with floating corpses. The people of Nanjiang did not eat fish for several months.
The killings made people downstream no longer dare to eat fish.
Can you imagine how murderous this person is?
What made Yang Jingtong most frightened and trembling was that this letter of persuasion to surrender was not so much a letter of persuasion to surrender as a request for life.
The content on it is very straightforward and simple - the king's army marched south, only to kill the culprit, the thief Yang Jingtong and his family, and had nothing to do with others.
Then came the persuasion: You should open the city gate early to welcome the king's army. If the king's army enters the city, there will be no harm in the autumn.
otherwise……
Once the swords are drawn up, the whole city will be guilty!
