In the bleak autumn wind, Yun Zheng took away his command talisman and the order to mobilize troops from Pang Ji's home, and went to the gate of the imperial city to ask for an audience with the emperor but was politely refused. Cong Zou Tong looked at Yun Zheng with a little sadness on his face.
Zheng seemed to realize something.
When he was about to say goodbye and go home, Zou Tong put a sealed lacquer box in Yunzheng's hand and said, "When you are at a loss, open the box and take a look!"
"How much time does your Majesty have?" Yun Zheng asked softly.
"This is not what you should ask. As a general, you should not ask about politics or family from the moment you accept the military talisman." Zou Tong stuffed his hands into his sleeves and said expressionlessly.
Since such words would make the emperor unhappy, Yun Zheng didn't plan to ask any more questions. God knows it will be the year of the monkey and the month of the horse when we see each other again this time.
His chest was bulging with three edicts in his arms: an appointment decree from the emperor, a signature signed by the prime minister issued by the central government, and the last one was a military order signed by the Privy Council agreeing to mobilize troops. These three
All are indispensable. Without any Yunzheng, there is no way to control the army. This is the so-called restriction method of the three talents of heaven, earth and man.
The triangle is the most stable form. Of course, Yun Zheng knows that the three major government agencies of administration, judiciary, and legislation coexist, have equal status and check and balance each other's political system. It is a democratic political system commonly used by capitalist countries in the world.
The separation of powers in the Song Dynasty and the separation of powers among the three powers are fundamentally different things. Yun Zheng likes the situation in the Song Dynasty. One person monitors another person, and at the same time he is also monitored by others. There is no law, only rule by people, everything
The supervision system relies on people to complete it.
For example, the person monitoring Yunzheng turned out to be Chen Lin. In the past, Yunzheng hoped that Li Chang could continue to serve as the supervisor of the army. However, the emperor did not agree, and instead used Wang Anshi to drive Li Chang away to Lingqiu.
This is a prefecture and county that has just been recaptured by the Song Army. It used to be part of Yuzhou and was a famous grain-producing area in the Liao Kingdom. Unfortunately, there is no way to grow food anywhere now. Thieves and Liao Cavalry have already destroyed the area.
It became a hell on earth.
If Li Chang had not experienced several wars with Yun Zheng, he would not have been able to accept this appointment. Even so, when he left Tokyo to take office, he composed a song in front of Xuanwu Gate - The heads return to the barbarians, and the ghosts benefit the country!
This man has been acting all his life, but this time it is not an act. Going to Lingqiu can really be called a narrow escape. It is even more dangerous than the original plan to go to Tang County to serve. In just three years, the prefect of Lingqiu has been changed.
He served three terms, not counting Li Chang's term.
The reasons for the previous three resignations were all because they sacrificed their lives for the country, that is to say, they all died. Li Chang offended Wang Anshi too much, and now he finally got himself into the tiger's mouth.
Of course, no one would know that Li Chang came to the Yun family after singing the song at Xuanwumen, knelt in front of Yun Zheng with tears streaming down his face, and accused Wang Anshi of adding insult to injury. He also asked Yun Zheng to save him out of the kindness of his former colleagues.
One rescue.
Yun Zheng himself felt that it would be inappropriate to contact the bandits in the Taihang Mountains after assuming the important task of general, so he asked Ge Qiuyan to hand over the command of the Taihang Mountain bandits to Li Chang.
Yun Zheng firmly believed that the long-sleeved Li Chang, who was good at dancing, would definitely be able to subdue the Taihang Mountain bandits who only knew how to burn, kill, and loot. Back then, a man riding a skinny horse dared to persuade Li Chang, who was from the Sixth Division of Yuanzhai, that there was no reason why he would fall for a mere man.
Lingqiu area.
When I sent Li Chang out of the city, I realized how much capital this guy had accumulated in the Western Beijing Army. He had more than 800 wolf-like personal guards. Even Yun Zheng felt a little ashamed of himself.
Eight hundred fully armed veterans of the Western Beijing Army were more than enough to capture Lingqiu, let alone such a trivial matter as taking up a post in Lingqiu.
Li Chang looked at Yun Zheng and smiled bitterly. He proudly held his hands on his horse and went to Hedong to take up his post in a cloud of smoke.
It wasn't until this moment that Yun Zheng realized that the one who was being plotted was not Li Chang who took office in the smoke-filled Lingqiu, but Wang Anshi, who wanted to bring Li Chang to death.
In a war like the Northern Expedition, Li Chang knew long ago that he had no way to serve as Yunzheng's military supervisor, so he thought of another way to go to the far north.
The land of Lingqiu is the only way to attack Yuzhou at Yanmen Pass. How could Li Chang, who had been the military supervisor of the Western Beijing Army for six years, not know Yunzheng's war strategy.
Taking advantage of the impoverished Xijing to hold back the Xixia's advance, the commander quickly broke through Yingzhou, Hunyuan, Guangling, Guihuazhou, and finally arrived at Tanzhou on the edge of the Great Wall! Blocking the Liao people from the Gubei Pass through Beijing
The arrival of reinforcements created a favorable situation for Di Qing's strategy in Nanjing.
Yun Zheng and Di Qing did not avoid Li Chang when discussing these strategies. Therefore, Li Chang clearly understood the significance of his staying in Lingqiu. For this reason, he did not hesitate to risk his official position as Huangmen's Minister, which he had managed for many years.
Any fool would know that if Li Chang could perform well in the Northern Expedition, becoming a marquis would be nothing more than a common thing.
Tokyo City - This is a playground for the wise!
Yun Zheng is not a very smart person. The reason why he was considered a rare talent in the past was just because the knowledge from later generations blinded everyone's eyes, just like Qian who had never seen a donkey.
The tiger thought the donkey was like a god, but was deceived by the representation.
Fortunately, Yunzheng's performance in recent years is very different from that of the donkey in Guizhou. Not only can he shout, but he can also kick, and finally completed the transition from eating grass to eating meat. Even if some people see that this tiger looks a little bit different.
He looks like a donkey, but because he has been holding his nose fiercely in eating meat, he recognizes this tiger who looks like a donkey.
Lu Qingqing couldn't bear to hear her husband belittling himself, so he carefully collected the documents and orders, and then said bitterly: "Who dares to say that you are a donkey? My husband should be a tiger with a white forehead and a striking white forehead. You yourself
Look at yourself, how do you look like a donkey? A person with a leopard head and a swallow-breasted forehead is obviously a bear-like person, so you don’t have to worry about others saying you are hypocritical if you use a donkey as a metaphor for yourself."
A wife's words of praise for her husband are never counted. The ancients have long criticized this shameless behavior, and the benefits of a donkey are not something that a lady like Lu Qingqing can understand. Compared with the tiger's behavior in the boudoir, Yun Zheng feels
Donkeys may be more adaptable to private boudoir life.
When they went to bed at night, the two wives were around, but the children were sent away. Hua Niang and Xiao Lin came and insisted on taking the three eldest children to their place. Only Yun Zhang, who was still drinking milk, followed his parents.
Sleep together.
Lu Qingqing saw her husband sitting on the edge of the bed, blankly watching her son sucking milk, and said angrily: "Be careful, your saliva is going to flow down. Your little wife has enough milk. Zhang'er can't finish it by herself. If
You can go and eat it if you like."
Yun Zheng wiped his saliva in shame and said angrily: "I'm not that shameless!"
Lu Qingqing chuckled and said, "Stop pretending to be a gentleman in front of the two of us. Have you done enough about breastfeeding?"
Yun Zheng was so ashamed that his face turned into red cloth.
However, he quickly transformed this dirty thing into a theoretical level. He believed that all people have two sides, and when it comes to breastfeeding, has Wang Anshi, a gentleman and a gentleman, never eaten his wife's remaining milk?
By analogy, Wang Anshi, who always does good things, has never done some shameful things behind his back? Even a kind and honest gentleman like Ouyang Xiu can be found out about incest scandals. Wang Anshi is really so flawless and makes people laugh.
Have nothing to say?
When the reform failed, Wang Anshi followed Lü Buwei's example and wrote his ideas for the reform on a writing board in downtown Tokyo. He stood in the open space in front of Fanlou Gate and asked people all over the world for the shortcomings of the reform. He also said that as long as Wang Anshi had bad ethics, he
Anyone can criticize him. In order to show that his reform was public-spirited, he didn't even mention the methods.
I have read too many military newspapers, and they always say that the atmosphere on the border is tense. Today you kill a donkey from our country, and tomorrow I will snatch two sheep from your country. There are no major conflicts, only sporadic conflicts at the border between Song and Liao.
Performed constantly.
Yun Zheng no longer reads military reports. If he wants to make big changes on the border, he still needs to go to Yanmen Pass before starting.
So he set his sights on the strange things in Tokyo.
Wang Anshi is seeking his own death. God knows why he would use such a self-defense method. Although he is now known as a thief, his subordinates Deng Wan and others have been relegated to other places. To this point,
Wang Anshi was still struggling to his death, and he didn't know where his self-confidence came from.
Deng Wan flattered him by saying that Wang Anshi, Confucius and Buddha were all the same person. Wang Anshi actually believed this kind of nonsense during the heyday of the reform period. If he didn't say anything else, he would be criticized to pieces for just this one thing. What's more,
Not to mention that she has enemies all over the world, especially those like Yun Zheng who suffer the consequences without saying a word.
I was waiting to see Wang Anshi's tragic situation tomorrow, so I didn't sleep well all night. I didn't do anything all night, but in the morning I was sitting at the dinner table with two dark circles under my eyes, yawning continuously.
Hua Niang frowned and spat at Yun Zheng. Xiaolin drank her porridge and said leisurely: "You are about to take command and go on an expedition. At this time, it is important to live and recuperate. It is not a long-term solution to attack suddenly."
Yun Zheng drank the porridge in one breath and said with a smile: "I didn't do anything last night. I was thinking about seeing Wang Anshi's unlucky appearance today. I didn't sleep all night. After dinner, let's go to watch the excitement of Fan Tower.
I have already ordered Lao Liao to reserve the box."
Xiao Lin frowned and said: "If you don't like Wang Anshi, just go ahead and impeach him. It's not what you, a general, should do to hide in the dark and watch other people's ugliness. You still have to take into account the feelings between your colleagues.
Let’s divide it.”
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "That's wrong. The more powerful a person is, the more he likes to peek into people's privacy and laugh at people's jokes. Watching other people's buildings rise and seeing other people's buildings collapse. This is a state and a height. You
This little royal official doesn't understand this at all.
Yesterday, I asked Lao Liao to book a box, but he almost didn't get it. After asking, the box above was almost booked by others, including the Pang family, the Han family and other nobles... I'm not the only one waiting to see the joke.
