Although there was nothing wrong with Liu Chan's words in his own opinion, as far as the current Song Dynasty generals were concerned, it was a great gift.
Even Han Shizhong was shocked and speechless by Liu Chan's words, let alone the ministers of the Lord Harmony Sect. The right to act cheaply is still acceptable, but you directly asked what you mean by not accepting the life of the foreign king,
Are you so relieved?
In fact, for Liu Chan, the throne is really not that important. When he was in the Shu Kingdom, if Zhuge Liang had wanted to, Liu Chan would have given him the throne, and he was absolutely sincere. Unfortunately, Zhuge Liang is the best in the world in terms of ability and moral character.
How could an outstanding person agree to Liu Chan's request?
After Zhuge Liang passed away, Liu Chan did not dare to take the throne at will. After all, the affairs of the Sima family were shocking.
Qin Hui stood up and objected: "Your Majesty, this case must not be made. If the border commander acts at will, does not respect the edict, and keeps giving orders, there will be endless troubles. Has your Majesty forgotten the chaos in the Tang Dynasty feudal towns?
Liu Chan pinched his nose unconsciously. Could it be that he didn't know what Qin Hui was talking about? But he still thought about it for a while, but he still felt that this power was not excessive.
So Liu Chan waved his hand: "Now the Jin Kingdom invades our Central Plains and bullies our people. Although our Song Dynasty is weak, we must not let others bully us. I am determined to support the Northern Expedition. Please don't say any more words."
What does it mean to answer the question? This is it. Qin Hui wanted to show that Liu Chan gave too much power to the generals, but Liu Chan thought that Qin Hui meant to oppose the peace negotiation.
There is no way. From Liu Chan's point of view, the current situation is no different from when he was in Shu. Isn't it just starting a war and surrendering? He is very familiar with it. Let's fight first and see what happens.
Liu Chan also looked at the ministers below him very nervously, for fear that something would go wrong. After all, they were not the same person. And he didn't want to work, but he didn't have a husband. By the way, he had to find someone with similar abilities as his father.
It is absolutely impossible to work on your own.
When Liu Chan thought about Zhuge Liang, his thinking became a little divergent, and he said nothing for a while. Qin Hui was slightly stunned, what does the official mean? No, why did he support the Northern Expedition?
The reason why Qin Hui always supported the peace negotiation was because he knew that the emperor would definitely agree to his proposal. Because his proposal itself was the emperor's own idea, how could he deny himself. As for who understood Zhao Gou best in the Song Dynasty, Qin Hui said that he was the first
Second, no one dares to say No. 1. But now His Majesty actually refuses to negotiate peace and supports the main war. What's wrong with His Majesty's mind now? Has he been replaced?
When Qin Hui was stunned, Zhao Ding, as the head of the civil service, was very supportive of the official's decision. If he wanted to negotiate a peace, he should go to the Northern Expedition! But the power to act cheaply was still a bit too much. No matter what, he had to have a civil servant as a staff or send a
A eunuch went to supervise the army.
But what Zhao Ding didn't expect was that Liu Chan didn't say anything. Liu Chan seemed to have forgotten anything about being a staff officer or supervising the army.
"How many troops are on the border now?" Liu Chan still asked in a responsible manner.
Zhao Ding stood up and said, "Back to your majesty, Yue Fei has led 25,000 soldiers near Yingchang. We only need your majesty's order to march north and recover the Central Plains."
Liu Chan nodded slightly. Twenty-five thousand people was a lot. If there were more, he should send some people to monitor him. However, he still had to be careful. These big guys on the border are really good at fighting. If something goes wrong,
Whatever happened, it wasn't him who suffered.
Liu Chan looked at Zhao Ding, shook his head in his heart, then looked at Han Shizhong, his eyes lit up: "Good day, you can also send troops to help Yue Fei lead the Jin army."
Han Shizhong stood up excitedly. Although he was shocked by the power granted to Yue Fei by the officials, he had been waiting for a long time for the day when His Majesty allowed him to make the Northern Expedition, and finally waited until His Majesty supported the attack on the Kingdom of Jin and the recovery of the Central Plains.
"Your Majesty is wise, I will definitely live up to your high expectations!"
When Qin Hui heard this, he curled his lips slightly. How could he not know what His Majesty was thinking? He was just worried that Yue Fei's power was too great, so he sent Han Shizhong to monitor him. However, there was nothing wrong with the general direction, and most people couldn't see it. It seemed that
Your Majesty is still the same. Qin Hui hurriedly gave Wang Lun a look. Wang Lun immediately knew what Qin Hui meant and stood up: "Your Majesty, I don't know how to deal with Huizong's matter?"
"Huizong? Who is it?" Liu Chan asked subconsciously as he was not very familiar with Zhao Gou's memory. After saying that, Liu Chan regretted a little and shouldn't have said anything casually. As for Huizong, he had really forgotten it.
The court hall was silent at this time, and Wang Lun's face was full of panic. What do you mean, Your Majesty? Does it mean that Huizong's body has been left alone? Or will there be no Huizong in the future? This is a big deal, what is this?
What happened? I didn't say anything, and then Wang Lun sneaked to his original position, as if he wasn't the one who stood up just now.
Qin Hui was even more stunned. He knew that His Majesty's position today was actually not stable, or he thought that his position was not stable at all. Because the Jin Kingdom kidnapped the two emperors of Huiqin and cut off the inheritance of the throne, Zhao Gou's successor
Strictly speaking, this position is unorthodox. But to be honest, the people of the Song Dynasty didn't care about this at all. After all, the abilities of Huizong and Qin were so rubbish. But you can't pretend that Huizong doesn't exist!
Liu Chan saw that the court was too quiet, and he didn't know what he had said wrong. Because Liu Chan's memory of Zhao Gou was not perfect, he just had a rough idea. And it was this rough idea that made the civil and military officials in the court subconsciously think too much.
.
Originally, this morning's meeting was to discuss the return of most of the northern cities of the Song Dynasty and Huizong's coffin, but now His Majesty has made it clear that he wants to re-take the northern cities, and also stated that there will be no Huizong in the future, so what are we talking about!
Qin Hui saw that the situation in the court had undergone earth-shaking changes and was not under his control at all. He closed his eyes helplessly. He thought in his heart that it was really tiring to deal with such an emperor.
Thus, this morning's meeting ended with the overall victory of the main war faction.
The ministers who came down from the court were also severely shocked by what happened today. If there was anything that was absolutely impossible to happen in the Song Dynasty, it was that the emperor was determined to resist the Jin Dynasty. Even Song Shenzong only beat Xixia, and even Khitan
Don't dare to offend. And the rise of the Jin Kingdom only started after the destruction of the Khitan.
"Master Xiangguo, I wonder what your Majesty's thoughts are now. Will Huizong accept it or not?" Wang Lun asked Qin Hui helplessly. Qin Hui proposed the matter and handled it himself. Now that your Majesty has no such intention, then
What happens next?
Qin Hui was also a little confused. Logically speaking, no one in the entire Song Dynasty knew the current emperor Zhao Gou better than him. Zhao Gou was an emperor who had no sense of security and was very afraid of the Jin Kingdom. If the Jin Kingdom came fiercely and wanted to destroy it,
After the Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou would definitely resist desperately, but if the Kingdom of Jin only wanted to ask for property, then Zhao Gou would definitely give him money at all costs. But Zhao Gou is a bit strange to him now. After all, his eyes seemed to be brighter when he talked about the Northern Expedition today.
In the past, I was more determined, but this shouldn't be the case, Jin Guo didn't come over.
In any case, Qin Hui never thought that although the Zhao Gou in front of him was still Zhao Gou, his soul had already changed.
"Wait for me to enter the palace later and ask, what is this?" Qin Hui said tiredly.
"What about the envoy from the Kingdom of Jin?" Wang Lun asked in a low voice,
"Let's refuse it first. We haven't seen you recently. I'll try His Majesty's tone before saying anything."
At this time, a young eunuch ran over and whispered: "Prime Minister Qin, Your Majesty wants to see you."
Qin Hui's eyes lit up, he smiled in his heart, and followed the eunuch towards the palace again. Zhao Ding gritted his teeth at this scene, and said in his heart that Qin Hui was a coquettish bitch who would deceive the emperor.
Of course, this scene is also a direction sign for the next court ministers. After all, Zhao Ding, the head of the civil service, was not summoned privately, but Zhao Ding's deputy Qin Hui was summoned. Everyone knows what this means.
.
Qin Hui followed the eunuch into the study, and saw that besides Liu Chan, there was also Han Shizhong in the study. Qin Hui was secretly surprised: "I pay homage to your majesty."
"Prime Minister Qin, there is no need to be polite."
"I wonder what the purpose of your Majesty's summoning of ministers is?"
Liu Chan didn't quite understand the situation in the Song Dynasty at this time, but he knew how to balance it. The so-called court was nothing more than a way of balance. So he summoned Han Shizhong and Qin Hui to talk to them about his general direction. As long as the big picture
If the direction is good, there won't be any big problems.
"Prime Minister Qin, as a civil servant, you have to shoulder your responsibilities. If I were Liu Bang, you would be my Xiao He. You still need to worry about the food and grass in the army." Liu Chan said affectionately.
Why Liu Bang was able to conquer the world was because he had people who worked under him.
"I don't dare to live up to His Majesty's love. It's just that Prime Minister Zhao has always been responsible for food and grass matters. I don't dare to overstep my authority."
Zhao Xiang, Zhao Ding. At this time, the left prime minister of the Song Dynasty was less than one person and more than ten thousand people. Unfortunately, he was a staunch main war faction. If Zhao Ding was also summoned, the main war faction would be too powerful, so Liu Chan should
He left the team himself.
"Xiang Zhao is old, and the food and grass matters are too heavy, so I will leave it to you temporarily. If you transport the food and grass properly, I will give you a heavy reward when this war is over."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Then Liu Chan looked at Han Shizhong: "Liangchen, what is the need for this troop dispatch?"
"Your Majesty, I only wish to return to the border as soon as possible to fight against the Jin soldiers."
Liu Chan laughed: "Okay, you are indeed my minister. Although you are assisting Yue Fei in fighting, I give you the right to send troops three times at will. Come and get some wine."
A eunuch brought a wine pot, and Liu Chan personally brought two glasses of wine to Qin Hui and Han Shizhong, and poured another glass of wine for himself: "I respect you for this wine. I hope you will work together in this battle and defeat the golden army."
Qin Hui and Han Shizhong both drank down the wine in their hands excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After Qin Hui and Han Shizhong left, Liu Chan ordered that all government affairs except food and grass be handed over to Zhao Ding, and then the palace gates were closed and he did not care about worldly affairs.
Liu Chan returned to the harem, holding the new beauty in his arms, drinking fine wine, and enjoying the singing and dancing. He enjoyed it even more than when he was in Shu. He didn't have to move by himself, and no one bothered him.
In addition, in Liu Chan's opinion, women in the Song Dynasty were more gentle than those in the Han Dynasty, especially their voices and waists, which were truly outstanding.
"Your Majesty, come and taste the oranges that my concubine has picked."
"Your Majesty, I have made up a new dance. I'll show you how it goes in a minute."
"His Majesty···"
Liu Chan felt a happiness that he had not felt in the past few decades, and laughed and said: "I am so happy here that I don't miss Shu."
