The Northern Expedition was too far away from Liu Chan, or in other words, he didn't care at all. At that time, the Han Dynasty just had a hand in dealing with the Hu people, so in Liu Chan's view, it was not a big problem at all.
Moreover, Liu Chan had a headache when he thought about the defense problems in various places that Zhao Ding told him. He finally understood that the Song Dynasty was also a mess. But the situation was much better than that at the end of the Later Han Dynasty. After all, the Eighteenth Route princes were no joke.
.But everyone in the capital has their own ideas, and the local generals also have their own small thoughts.
For example, he heard that Zhao Jun, who was demoted from an official position, was also a tough fighter. But he once actually joined forces with Qin Hui of the peace faction. It can be said that he has a strong interest in interests. Although he can be regarded as serving the country
, loyal enough, but how to put it? This person has always put interests first. If the Northern Expedition goes against the will of the imperial court, he will definitely give up the Northern Expedition. This can be seen from his friendship with Qin Hui.
Of course, our Majesty Liu Chan did not care about this matter at all. After all, everyone has small thoughts, as long as there are no problems in the general direction.
It can be said that Liu Chan now lives in the deep palace almost all day long, without any involvement in government affairs. The Northern Expedition has already begun. Internal affairs are left to Zhao Ding, and food and grass issues are left to Qin Hui, and he only needs to make major decisions.
Well, Liu Chan, who has been in power in Shu for more than 40 years, can tell you clearly that there are no major decisions to be made. As long as you have a clear attitude, the people below will obediently handle it for you.
As for Zhao Ding, Liu Chan met with him in person and told him clearly that he would handle the government affairs by himself. If there was nothing important to do, and he bothered him again, it would not be Liu Chan's fault if he supported the peace negotiation. This
Zhao Ding was so frightened by these words that he quickly shook his head and claimed that he would definitely solve any problem and would never dare to trouble Liu Chan.
As a result, Liu Chan was clean, and of course Qin Hui's affairs as left prime minister came to an end. Poor Qin Hui was still nervously busy with food and grass matters, but he didn't know that Liu Chan had given up his original idea long ago.
Liu Chan looked at the girl who had just been brought into the palace, and he felt happy in his heart. He did not dare to have too much communication with the concubines who had already been titled in the palace, for fear of being seen as having some problem, so he could only find new ones to comfort his lovesickness.
.I have to say that in this country called the Song Dynasty, the attitude of women in the Song Dynasty was more docile than in the Han Dynasty, and they were more attentive to others. Unlike the Han Dynasty, when men made women angry, they were beaten countless times. What,
Do you think it's impossible? Ever since the founding of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, was afraid of Empress Lu. Later, Empress Lu even took the throne and no one dared to object. In the Later Han Dynasty, it was even more outrageous. The Empress Dowager took power.
There are countless others, and the imperial title system has been ruined.
Isn't there anyone who objects? Who does? And they are really doing a good job!
Why?
I can't stand people who are self-aware of themselves. How can they not know whether they are capable? If they are capable, then do things well; if they are not capable, then find capable ministers to do things. So, it seems that they all do it.
not bad.
Liu Chan even felt that in the Han Dynasty, the emperor and his harem shared the power of the world.
At this time, a eunuch came in and paid homage to Liu Chan: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Qin wants to see you."
The wine glass in Liu Chan's hand stopped, and he thought in his mind: What is Prime Minister Qin doing here? There hasn't been any big event recently! Liu Chan waved his hand: "Stop the singing and dancing, someone will tidy up the place. Take Prime Minister Qin to my study, I guess today
I can’t play anymore.”
The little eunuch following Liu Chan saw Liu Chan's depressed look, so he ran to Liu Chan and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to be in the study...?"
Liu Chan looked at the eunuch beside him with a surprised look. What a talent. He dared to arrange such a thing in the emperor's study. He didn't even think of it. But he seemed to have let his concubine wear the emperor's clothes. This was really impressive.
It takes fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps. The eldest brother no longer laughs at the second brother.
Liu Chan was a little moved, but he didn't dare to do it after all. The civil and military responsibilities of this dynasty seemed to be separated, but the power of the scholar-officials seemed to have increased a lot. It would be terrible if someone discovered it. But if the scholar-officials made a fuss, then Liu Chan would be the one
I can't express the pain.
"Another day." Liu Chan refused, but his refusal was not complete.
When Liu Chan entered the study, Qin Hui had been waiting for a long time. Liu Chan was very satisfied when he saw Qin Hui, because this minister could understand his thoughts very well, and he could execute everything he told him perfectly. If he hadn't known this
Whether his ministers were loyal or not, he wanted to hand over all the power of the Song Dynasty to him.
"My dear, what are you doing here?" Liu Chan waved his hand and did not let Qin Hui kneel down. It was etiquette at this time, so why did he kneel down so easily? No kneeling!
In fact, Qin Hui didn't want to come either, but although Wang Lun apparently took the lead in the previous peace talks, he actually arranged it. Now that the peace talks suddenly stopped, all parties are noisy and want an explanation. After all, Fei Fei
He spent so much effort. Although Qin Hui thought it was just a change of opinion, it was nothing. But there was a key point in this, and that was what to do with Huizong's coffin. You couldn't really ignore it!
"Your Majesty, I came here to ask what to do with Huizong's body? If the Jin Kingdom wants to use this as a threat to force us to agree to negotiate peace, how should we deal with it?" Qin Hui asked in a low voice. Everyone knew that Huizong was still with the person who was still alive.
The living late Emperor is His Majesty's enemy. No one dares to mention this matter, but who makes Qin Hui the leader of the peace talks? If he doesn't ask, how can he lead the team.
Liu Chan was very confused, Huizong? Who is Huizong? Why is everyone so careful when mentioning it? They seem to have some memory, who is it? Damn it, it seems to be the captured late emperor.
Liu Chan opened his mouth wide and was extremely shocked. In this Song Dynasty, even the emperor was captured, and those ministers were still discussing peace negotiations. How shameless this was. By the way, what kind of evil things did the Song Dynasty do?
Can the emperor be captured?
If Liu Chan didn't know about this, he could pretend that nothing happened. But now that he knew about it, he was confused. After all, he was an emperor and couldn't ignore it. Liu Chan walked around in confusion and couldn't think of a good idea.
Countermeasures. Huizong is still the father of his body, so he can't scold him. The great Han established the world with filial piety, and Liu Chan was deeply affected, so no matter how unhappy he felt, he didn't scold him. Since he couldn't think of a good countermeasure, then find someone
Come to someone who can think of countermeasures.
Liu Chan stared at Qin Hui and said: "I have promulgated the imperial edict of the Northern Expedition and will never repent. Huizong's coffin cannot be ignored. If I love you, it is better to think of a countermeasure that has the best of both worlds."
Qin Hui did not expect Liu Chan to be so tough and continued: "The Jin Kingdom wants to ask for peace at the cost of abolishing the puppet Qi regime and returning the Song Dynasty south of the Yellow River, and they also plan to return Huizong's coffin. In this way, our army
We can recover most of the cities in the Central Plains without the need for the Northern Expedition."
Liu Chan thought there would be such a good thing? Then he asked someone to bring a map and inspect the garrison situation of the Song army in various places. Well, I don't understand very well! Fighting is not Liu Chan's strong point, and dealing with internal affairs is pretty much the same.
"We, the Song Dynasty, can defeat the Jin Kingdom without returning it. My beloved may have forgotten that the Hu people are dangerous and unethical. If you don't defeat them today, they will attack again in the future. By then,
, the city was built over and over again, which consumed the power of the Song Dynasty." After saying that, Liu Chan felt that what he said was correct. But wasn't it? They knocked down the city, scraped away all the property, and then returned the city to you.
After a few years, you finally restored the local people's livelihood, and the Jin soldiers came again. By then, you still can't defend the city. It's better to defeat the city yourself!
Qin Hui didn't expect Liu Chan to be so passionate. Is this the Emperor who lacks a sense of security and keeps promising to go back on his word all day long? The conditions given by the Kingdom of Jin are already very good, although they are a bit like boiling a frog in warm water.
, but His Majesty should agree? Why did the war start?
