Five hundred and thirty nine chapters young official family
Who is the De'an person mentioned by the officials?
That is Xia Song.
It was no wonder that Xia Song had grown up before. Han Qi was not surprised.
Xia Song and Han Qi also guarded the west together and presided over the war against Xixia.
Wang Shao faced the official's inquiry and said directly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I and Xia Wenzhuang are both from De'an, and we passed by Xia Wenzhuang's Shinto monument before."
Wang Shao immediately took out the memorial and presented it to him.
The eunuch took it and presented it to the official family.
But the officials never saw it on the spot.
Just kidding, the emperor's time is very precious. He can't read all the memorials submitted by ministers of more than two systems, let alone Wang Shao's policies.
Since the war between the Song Dynasty and the Xixia Dynasty, the officials along the border and in the court, even when the barbarians came forward to propose the Pingbian policy, the papers were more than enough to fill a large hall.
The official put Wang Shao's memorial aside. Zhang Yue thought after reading it, Wang Shao, please give me some help. If you fail to make the report in front of the official, doesn't it mean that you have recommended a mediocre person to the emperor?
The official said: "Passing by Xia Wenzhuang's tomb...haven't you always been in the west? When will you return to your hometown?"
Wang Shao said: "Reporting to your majesty, there is a tomb of Duke Xia Wenzhuang in De'an, but Duke Xia Wenzhuang is buried in Xuzhou."
The official nodded and immediately opened Wang Shao's writing and Ping Rongce said: "Tell me about it..."
Wang Shao immediately said: "Your Majesty, I think Xixia can be captured, so negotiating peace is not a long-term strategy."
"But if the country wants to quell the Western bandits, it must first subdue the Hehuang and Huangzhous with force. If it wants to subdue the Hehuang and Huangzhous, it must first appease the tribes along the border with kindness and trust."
"In order to pacify the tribes along the border, it is necessary to overwhelm the Tu clan. The Tubo people value blood ties, and this Tu clan is after Dezan. As long as the Tu clan can be intimidated, it is also necessary to threaten Hexi. Your Majesty, please sincerely choose someone who is knowledgeable and intelligent.
Scholars, those who know their love all around, let people come and go among them..."
As Wang Shao spoke, the official looked at the other party's policy.
Zhang Yue looked at the official's face and his face was not at ease. Instead, his brows were slightly wrinkled and he suddenly thought to himself, "Oh no, Wang Shao has violated some taboo."
But seeing that the official had put down Wang Shao's policy at this time, the article said: "I have read Xia Wenzhuang's Ten Strategies for Pingbian Affairs. Qing's Ten Strategies are exactly the same as Xia Wenzhuang's article. It seems to have been stolen..."
Wang Shao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
Seeing Wang Shao's expression, the officials lost their patience and threw Wang Shao's policy directly to Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue glared at Wang Shao on the spot and thought, Okay, you Pingrong Shice was hiding it from me before, because I was afraid that I would peek and steal your credit. If you had shown me earlier, this would happen again.
?
You really judge a gentleman with a villain’s heart!
But Wang Shao, who was so powerful as an emperor, no longer dared to say a word. You must know that when a leader reprimands his subordinates, he must not defend himself on the spot, otherwise what is reasonable will become unreasonable.
Zhang Yue picked up Wang Shao's Ten Strategies and read them in his mind. If Wang Shao failed, he would be implicated as well. Let's see if there is any way to remedy the situation.
People in the Song Dynasty liked to make a cross when they went to the temple.
For example, Xia Song's Ten Strategies for Pingbian Affairs, Zhang Fangping's Ten Strategies for Pingrong Affairs, and the famous Fan Dashou's Ten Strategies for Chen's Edicts.
Such policies involving national grand strategy often use the number ten.
Zhang Yue read Wang Shaozhi's article at a glance and said to himself, "Fortunately, I was present."
Zhang Yue calmed down and then said: "Your Majesty, I have also read Xia Wenzhuang's policy theory. Among them are three policies for peace and Rong. They are that Tubo and Xixia have a feud, and the leader of Tubo defeated Li Yuanhao several times. Therefore, we can contact Tubo and Rong.
The Xixia people went to war."
"Secondly, the leaders of the tribes along the border were given the title of Han official and controlled."
"Recruit familiar Tibetans as soldiers again and provide training."
Zhang Yue thought to himself that fortunately he had a reading system and could memorize all the articles he had read. Otherwise, when he took out Xia Song's original text and compared it with Wang Shao's Ping Rong Ce, Wang Shao would have been stunned.
Of course, the officials have also seen Xia Song's Ten Strategies for Peaceful Affairs, but their views must be different from their own. They only have a rough impression, but the details are definitely not as clear as Zhang Yue's.
But to be fair, Wang Shao's Ten Strategies for Ping Rong and Xia Song's Ten Strategies for Ping Bian Affairs are indeed very close.
However, it is too much to say that two De'an people copied their fellow countrymen. To be more precise, Wang Shao did borrow Xia Song's ideas.
After listening to Zhang Yue's words, the officials looked at Wang Shao's article on Ten Policies for Pingrong and Xia Song, which was indeed somewhat different from Xia Song's article, but they could not tell what the difference was.
Wang Shao did not dare to speak at this time, so Zhang Yue had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, those who discuss magic tend to be inferior, only those who discuss Tao can grasp the key points."
The meaning of Zhang Yue's words is the core idea.
Why does Zhang Yue think Zhang Fangping is inferior to Wang Anshi? Because Zhang Fangping has a way, but no way.
But in Wang Anshi's reform, several of his measures ultimately pointed to the same content. No matter what the results of the methods were, your core logic makes sense and is consistent.
Therefore, when the king listens to his ministers, he should not look at the method. No matter what the conspiracy is, what everyone thinks is not much different. The most important thing is to summarize the core logic of each method.
Wang Shao was shocked when he heard this, and Zhang Yue woke him up with a few words.
He boasted that as soon as he wrote this eloquent Pingrong policy of several thousand words, the officials would be of great use to him in no time.
If it weren't for Zhang Yue's few words, his career would have almost ended on the spot.
Sure enough, there is no one in the government who should be an official!
Jing Zhangyue reminded Wang Shao to organize his thoughts and said: "Your Majesty, Duke Wenzhuang of Xia's ten strategies for peace and border affairs are to cooperate with Tubo to control Xixia, to subdue Xixia mainly, and to cooperate with Tubo as a supplement."
"But I think that with the current national strength, it is really difficult to defeat Xixia, and it is not easy to do it urgently. It is better to merge with Tubo first. If you are close, you can cut off Xixia's arm. If you are medium, Xixia will not dare to invade. If you are far away, Xixia will not dare to invade."
Those who can control Xixia or even destroy the country!"
Zhang Yue saw the official frowning, and it was clear that Wang Shao had understood what he meant.
Xia Song ruled the border before Qingli. At that time, the Song Dynasty was generally confident in its national power and believed that the whole country could not defeat Xixia.
Therefore, Xia Song's suggestion was to unite with Tubo to destroy Xixia. Peace with the Rong was the means, and peace with the Rong was the goal.
But now that Xixia's military power could overwhelm the Song Dynasty, it was unrealistic to directly destroy Xixia.
Therefore, the strategic policy must also be adjusted.
The official said: "The difference between Wang Qing's strategy and Xia Wenzhuang's strategy is that he is close to Tubo and far away from Xixia."
Wang Shao said: "Your Majesty, the policy proposed by me is not a harmonious harmony, but a merger of all directions!"
"How to combine?"
Wang Shao said: "In the third year of the ancient Wei Dynasty, I had a deep knowledge of the Tibetan tribes along the Qing and Tang Dynasties. I knew that their weak tribes were scattered and separated, and they were not unified. Although they seemed weak and useless, if they were merged, they could be combined.
If they match their aspirations and interests, encourage them to live together with the Han people, recruit them as soldiers, and sooner or later they will become our border ministers. This is called a merger."
"In addition, the imperial court cannot force the Tubo clan to do anything. However, the imperial court can confer officials on them and allow them to trade with the dynasty. However, they must use Chinese laws and gradually become consistent with Han customs. This is legal."
"The tribes of Tubo believe in Buddhism, and the common people live in wooden houses, and they only use tile houses to worship the Buddha. I look at the Tubo city, half of which is the Buddha's house. The people like to chant sutras, but they are not willing to fight. If we pacify the Tubo, we will kill.
Secondly, it is better to send monks from the capital who are familiar with Buddhism to go to Tubo to appease various tribes and at the same time build temples in the border areas. This is in line with the custom."
When the official heard this, his eyes lit up and he said: "Merge, legal, customary, good, good, good!"
After hearing what the officials said, Wang Shaozhang was overjoyed.
Zhang Yue also secretly sweated. Officials are easy to fool. If you don't have two brushes, it's not easy to persuade him.
Wang Shao's three strategies were to merge the weak and appoint officials to the strong, but the most important thing was cultural assimilation.
It is said that it is Pingrong, but it is actually Herong. Of course, the method is much more specific than the Herong mentioned by Xia Song, and it is very consistent with the Confucian thought of embracing gentle people and distant people.
The official looked at Wang Shaojian's words and said: "Among them, there are three strategies for peace and Rong, and seven strategies for peace and Rong. If the imperial court does not send a large army to garrison in ancient Wei, there will be no way to talk about peace and Rong strategies."
At this moment, Wang Shao had gained the initial trust of the officials, and he boldly said: "In ancient times, Wei was Weizhou. I have been camped here for several years and have conquered tens of thousands of Tibetan people. If the imperial court wants to use this as a basis to manage Hexi,
It must be cultivated.”
"From Weiyuan to Qinzhou, there are tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land that are not cultivated. I ask your Majesty to set up a municipal Yisi to capture the profits of merchants and use them to manage the land."
After hearing this, the officials thought this method was acceptable, but asked worriedly: "How much will it cost?"
Nowadays, when officials hear the word "money", they are a bit empty. This is the result of Sima Guang, Lu Gongzhu and other ministers whispering in their ears all day long.
Wang Shao said: "It won't cost the court a penny!"
The officials were surprised and happy, thinking, is there such a good thing?
Wang Shao said: "I have discussed with Zhang Zhengyan before, and I can ask the Shaanxi Transportation Department to borrow 100,000 salt banknotes from me, and then set up a market trade department here. I will use the salt banknotes from the market trade office to trade with the Tibetan people and Han merchants."
With the establishment of the market exchange, merchants from the mainland would inevitably arrive in ancient Wei to trade with the Fan people.
There is only one currency in the market, which is salt banknotes. Only Tubo and merchants who accept this can trade in the market. Xue Xiang used salt banknotes to buy horses from Xixia, but Xixia refused to use salt banknotes for other goods except horses.
However, Tubo was far less powerful than Xixia and would inevitably accept the conditions of the Song Dynasty.
Wang Shao had done this in history. He merged the Jiaozi business in Yizhou into the market exchange, and wanted to open a money printing press in ancient Wei and use Jiaozi as currency to buy Tibetan goods in the market exchange.
But there is no record of how this happened later, but if you think about it carefully, it must have failed. Even the people of the Song Dynasty did not use Jiaozi, but the Tubo people would use it? They are not stupid.
Therefore, only salt banknotes that can stably resist inflation are reliable.
Zhang Yue's ideal is to allow every Tubo people to use the salt banknotes of the Song Dynasty.
Fighting and killing is so boring. Wouldn't it be great if we all sit down together and make real money?
Wang Shao talked for half a day before leaving. The eunuchs outside kept reminding the officials that it was past the time for the interview and it was time to see the next minister, but the officials told them to push him away.
When Wang Shao left, the officials were overjoyed and said to Zhang Yue: "This Wang Shao is truly a rare talent. I have found someone today. Both Lu Huiqing and Wang Shao were recommended by you."
"You really know how to know people!"
Zhang Yue laughed twice in his heart after hearing this, but said on his face: "This is all thanks to your majesty's great blessing. Every leader who founds a country and revives it has good ministers and famous generals who have traveled thousands of miles to assist him! I really don't dare to take credit!"
After all, the official family is young. After hearing Zhang Yue's flattery, Long Yan was delighted!
