Sun Bing and Xu Yan hope that Gao Hang will never come back after he goes to sea. The person who is completely opposite to their wishes is Qingyu. Gao Hang can be accepted by the Feng Kingdom and become a member of the Feng General. Qingyu is
The happiest one.
The two of them were not very familiar with each other before. After all, one is in the imperial court and the other is far away in Donghai County. Due to geographical restrictions, they have admired each other for a long time. Now that they can finally serve as ministers in the same palace again, and they are both Mo people, the two of them have become more and more mature.
It's only natural to get closer.
Regarding the current situation of Feng Country, Qingyu gave a detailed introduction to Gao Hang. Although Feng Country is as powerful as it is today, there are many internal contradictions, complicated relationships, and numerous factions. If you are not careful, you may be in danger.
territory.
In the Feng Kingdom's court, there are indeed so many factions that it is unimaginable. There are the local factions of the Feng Kingdom, as well as the Ningren, Moren, and Zhenren factions. Even within each faction, there are many divisions.
The small groups also have different political opinions. If they can kill each other, they will never show mercy. Take Feng Ren as an example, Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji seem to have jumped out of the faction, and the people headed by Yushi Dafu
The two factions Zhang Zhe and Zhang Xin, headed by Zhi Su Neishi, are incompatible with each other and often have disputes. Even the Mo people faction is divided into aristocratic faction and civilian faction, such as Qingyu, Gao Hang, Li Jin, and Zhang Rong.
They belong to the aristocratic faction, like Qi Heng, and Guo Jue belongs to the civilian faction, and everyone looks down on them.
These many factions coexist in the same court, and they can suppress the conflicts under the water, and make the Feng Kingdom appear to be united and calm. This has to be said to be a miracle, and the reason why it can create
Tang Yin was indispensable for this miracle. It's not that Tang Yin used ingenious means to resolve the conflicts between the factions, but that Tang Yin's personal prestige was too high. With him alone, he suppressed all the factions.
, so that they dare not act rashly.
The Feng Kingdom had so many hidden dangers, and the fundamental reason was that it expanded too fast. Before one conflict could be resolved, new conflicts arose one after another, and this cycle evolved into the deformity it is today.
Just because of Tang Yin's presence, the Feng Kingdom's court was still very stable, and could still be united on the surface to deal with the outside world.
Before Gao Hang surrendered, he had already judged that the situation in Feng Country would be complicated, but he didn't expect it to be so complicated with so many factions.
After Qingyu finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "I should really thank the king for letting me go to Donghai County to train the navy and be ready to go overseas to attack the island countries at any time."
Qingyu smiled, raised his delicate eyebrows, and asked: "Brother Gao, can't you see the true intention of the king? It is a strategy to drive away tigers and devour wolves, and to use the opportunity of conquering overseas island countries to maximize the loss of Zhenjiang.
Navy and East China Sea Navy!"
Gao Hang sighed and said: "How can I not understand the king's thoughts?! However, I was born in Donghai County, and I know how serious the problem of pirates is. No matter what the king thinks, if pirates can really be eradicated
, I am willing to do it even if it costs my life to ensure that the people of this area live and work in peace and contentment."
Qingyu was quite moved when he heard this. There were not many people like Gao Hang who were ambitious and willing to think about the people. He sighed softly and said, "It's a pity that I don't know how to fight in water. Otherwise, I really want to fight with Brother Gao."
Let’s go out together to defeat the barbarians and bandits!”
Gao Hang said: "The biggest fear when fighting overseas is insufficient logistics supplies. If General Qingyu can stay in the court and help me supervise logistics, it will be a great help to me."
Qingyu thought for a while, patted his chest and said, "This matter will be taken care of by me."
"Well, I would like to thank General Qingyu first." There were many Mo people in the Feng Kingdom court. In addition to Qing Yu, there were also Li Jin, Zhang Rong and others. However, Gao Hang had already despaired of these Mo Kingdom veterans.
, If you want to count on them, you will really push yourself into a pit of fire. Among so many Mo people, Gao Hang also thinks that Qingyu is worthy of his trust.
A few days after receiving Gao Hang's navy, the two prime ministers Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen finally arrived in Zhenjiang.
Tang Yin was extremely excited about their arrival and went out of the city to greet them personally. When entering the city, he even pulled the two of them into his carriage, and the three of them rode together.
On the way, without much greeting, Tang Yin bluntly stated his intention to move the capital to Zhenjiang.
Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen were both shocked when they heard that he wanted to move the capital. In fact, as early as when Feng State acquired the eight counties of Ningbei, Yancheng was no longer suitable as a capital because it was too far away from Ningdi, which led the Feng State court to want to move the capital.
It is beyond our reach to govern Ningdi, and now that it has annexed eight counties in southern Ning and the entire territory of Mo except two counties, Yancheng is even less suitable to be the capital. Everyone knows this, but no one dares to bring it up.
.
Feng people are the foundation of Feng country. However, no Feng people want to move the capital out of Feng country. Although Ning and Mozambique have been merged into Feng country, traditional Feng people cannot accept it so quickly in their hearts.
.Because of this, anyone who proposes to move the capital is tantamount to being suspected of trying to shake the foundation of the Feng Kingdom. Even Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen, who are high-ranking prime ministers and important ministers of the orthodox Feng people, dare not bring up this matter. Now
Tang Yin raised it himself, how could Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen not be surprised and surprised?
Emotionally, the two of them definitely supported Tang Yin, but intellectually, they had to express their opposition. First of all, Shangguan Yuanji said: "Your Majesty, if you move the capital to Zhenjiang, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the people in the country.
, Since the founding of Feng State, Yancheng has been the capital of Feng State. It has long become a symbol of Feng State. In the traditional concept of Feng people, it is unacceptable to move the capital to Zhenjiang. I hope the king will think twice!"
Qiu Zhen agreed with Shangguan Yuanji's point of view, nodded repeatedly, and said: "It is a good thing that the king has the intention to move the capital, but in practice... I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
I haven't returned to Yancheng yet, but just when I met Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen, they unanimously expressed their opposition. This shows how difficult it will be to convince the ministers in the DPRK after returning to Yancheng.
Tang Yin said dissatisfiedly: "For the current Feng Kingdom, Yancheng is located in a remote location and the transportation is extremely inconvenient. It is no longer suitable to be a leader." Shangguan Yuanji smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of moving the capital involves too many interests. From the perspective of emotions,
Firstly, the Laofeng people will feel abandoned by the king, and dissatisfaction with the king will definitely breed among the people. Secondly, the properties of ministers and large merchants are basically located in Yancheng. Once the capital is moved, these properties may become
It's worthless. Therefore, the people will not support the move of the capital, and the ministers in the court will not support it. From top to bottom, they will not support the king's decision, so it will be difficult for the king's decision to be implemented. Since
So, why bother to bring this decision forward and harm your prestige?"
After hearing what he said, Tang Yin was speechless. He thought of the problem too simply. For a country, moving the capital is a huge matter. The stakes and various aspects involved are overwhelming.
As you can imagine, this is definitely not something that a monarch can decide on a whim or by tapping his forehead.
"So, the matter of moving the capital will definitely not work? The capital of Feng Kingdom will definitely die in Yancheng?" After holding it in for a long time, Tang Yin asked unconvinced.
In fact...that's it. Shangguan Yuanji muttered in his heart, but didn't say anything.
Qiu Zhen almost had the same idea, but he didn't want Tang Yin to be too angry, so he said in a roundabout way: "This matter needs to be discussed in the long term, let's discuss it in the long term!"
"Nonsense! Long-term plan? How long will the long-term plan last?!" Tang Yin slapped his thigh angrily, his eyes swept over Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen, and finally turned away and looked out of the car.
Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen looked at each other and did not dare to speak anymore. They also wanted to support Tang Yin and believed that moving the capital was the right decision. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do.
If Tang Yin really wanted to move the capital against all opinions, the dissatisfaction of the ministers would be okay, but he was afraid that the dissatisfaction of the people would be taken advantage of, which would lead to unexpected consequences. The people of Feng are the foundation of Feng country. If they continue to
The Feng people don’t support the king, let alone the Ning people, Zhen people, and Mo people. By then, the king will betray his relatives and leave, and it will be too late to regret it. With this, the Feng country, which is already full of contradictions, will also fall into
In the midst of crisis, Feng Guo cannot afford to take this risk, at least not now.
Originally Tang Yin was very happy about the arrival of Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen, but the cold water from the two of them suddenly poured out all the excitement in his heart, and his heart felt cold...
After Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen arrived in Zhenjiang, they shared most of the military and political affairs for Tang Yin, and Mo Di, which was merged into Feng State, began to gradually stabilize. At this point, it was finally time for Tang Yin to return to Yancheng.
Tang Yin was leaving Zhenjiang, and Lingshuang was also going back to Jade Country, so the two of them could go together.
Before leaving Zhenjiang, Tang Yin handed over the internal affairs to Shangguan Yuanji, the external affairs to Qiu Zhen, and the military affairs to Xiao Muqing. After everything was settled, he set off back to Yancheng.
Because the war in Mo Di was not completely over yet, the only Feng army that followed Tang Yin back to the capital was the direct army. After the two armies of Bu Feng and Yu left Zhenjiang, they went all the way north. In fact, they couldn't go very far together before they had to go their separate ways. But this
This time was different from the past. Tang Yin and Ling Shuang both felt a little more separated and were unwilling to separate too early, so the two armies were always moving at a very slow pace.
On this day, the troops of Fengyu and Yu arrived in the Tong County area of Haowan County. Going further, they would enter Zeping County. When they arrived at Zeping, it was the time when Tang Yin and Lingshuang parted ways.
Tong County is a grain-producing place. If you look to both sides of the road, you will see green crop fields, and you can see as far as the eye can see. Tang Yin and Ling Shuang were not sitting in the carriage, they were riding horses side by side.
