Chapter 67: Duke Yansheng

After finishing the meal, Yun Zheng figured out why the little bug turned into a thrush. The thrush was a kind of bird that ate the little bug...

Lao Liao went to the official to report that a maid of the Yun family died of a sudden illness. There were few people in the family to use, so he bought a little girl named Huamei to serve Mrs. Gaoming.

I don’t know what tone Lao Liao said, but he must have been arrogant, because Xiao Chong immediately took out his household registration from his pocket and showed it to Yun Zheng. Yun Zheng glanced at it and found that Xiao Chong had become a native of Bianliang, Tokyo.

She is an orphan. She can change her identity in half a day. Lao Liao is very capable.

The days passed like this, until one day when two swallows started to build a nest under the eaves of the wooden house, Yun Zheng and Di Qing were shocked to realize that spring had arrived.

After the arrival of spring, there are many activities at home. For example, Lu Qingqing and Ge Qiuyan will go to the nun temple opposite Xiangguo Temple to pay homage to the Empress and buy some sesame oil money. If possible, the Yun family also needs to make special offerings there.

A Buddha statue can bless the Yun family's descendants.

Yun Er didn't know where he took the bacon. I heard that a group of them were walking upstream along the Yellow River. They didn't know when they would come back. If Yun Zheng, the head of the family, asked, he would be told that it was confidential.

Rejected.

This is a very obvious revenge. Although Yun Zheng also answered like this when Yun Er and Su Shi wanted to inquire about military strategy. Their answers still made Yun Zheng very sad. Everyone has grown up. This is the biggest

of original sin.

The most enjoyable thing in spring is to let horses run wild, and the willow trees in Tokyo are the most beautiful time of the year.

"Who hunts in spring? Hunting is always in autumn. Spring is the season for the reproduction of all things. Spring prosperity, summer growth, autumn harvest, and winter hiding are the rules of the four seasons. Even the most barbaric Xixia people will not hunt in spring.

, spring is a good time to enjoy the scenery. My husband, don’t take the bow and arrow, and accompany me to go outing.

I’ve long heard that the spring scenery in Fantai is sultry, so it’s time for our family to go and see it.”

While having breakfast, Lu Qingqing proposed that the whole family go on a spring outing.

"Aren't you busy worshiping Buddha statues in Ciyun Temple? How can you find time to go to Fantai? If you just want to accompany me because I have nothing to do, then there is no need. I'm fine, just go and do your business."

Ge Qiuyan chatted from the side: "You have been in a bad mood recently, and your smiles have disappeared. If you are not happy, no one in the family will be happy. I have to make you happy after all!"

Yun Zheng pinched Ge Qiuyan's increasingly rounded pretty face, pressed Lu Qingqing's nose, picked up the riding crop and left the house, letting the two big-bellied women comfort him, this person can't afford to be embarrassed, what a big deal it is.

Ah, as for the thing that makes me look sad? Shouldn’t it be done just by solving it?

It's embarrassing to say that. Bao Zheng checked the files of the Ministry of Personnel and finally came to a terrifying result. During the Xiangfu period of the Song Dynasty, there were only 9,785 officials in the Song Dynasty. Now, there are only 9,785 officials in the Song Dynasty.

In the forty years of the Song Dynasty, there were more than 17,300 officials in the Song Dynasty. This does not include the officials dispatched to the capital, envoys and elected officials. The number of officials more than doubled in the forty years.

The situation of suppressing officials has been formed, and the finance of the Song Dynasty, which had just made some improvement, once again suffered a heavy blow.

Bao Zheng checked the number of officials in front, and Pang Ji checked the number of soldiers and horses in the world immediately behind. After comparison, he found that during the Kaibao period, the total military strength of the Song Dynasty was only 380,000, of which less than 200,000 were forbidden troops.

By the eighth year of Qingli, the total military strength of the Song Dynasty reached 1,259,000, of which 850,000 were the Forbidden Army.

There were so many soldiers, but the Song Dynasty's border defense was like a broken pocket. Whether it was Liao or Xixia, they could easily choose a place to break through. However, Yunzheng and Di Qing were worried that they did not have suitable troops at hand.

Fu Bi said that the world's wealth was used to support the army. He strengthened the jurisdiction of the army when he was in Qinfeng Road, but was dismissed by the censor, saying that his intentions were unclear, and he was transferred away from Qinfeng Road.

He went to Qinzhou to become the magistrate. According to Di Qing, this was a heavy blow to Fu Bi, a proud and arrogant guy!

Talkative people basically don't end well. Bao Zheng was sent to Qizhou to quell the rebellion! God knows why the rebels with more than a hundred people sent a second-grade officer to personally supervise the formation. Qizhou Forbidden Army Ma Da and Zhang Qing rebelled

, and Yun Zheng had never heard of these two people. How dare you call a rebellion of this scale a rebellion? What could have been accomplished by just sending an arrester, a strong minister of consolidation was sent to deal with it.

"This is not a fuss. When Wang Ze started a rebellion in the seventh year of Qingli, there were only a hundred or ten people at the beginning. How many people did the court send to quell the rebellion?

The governor of the capital, Mai Yunyan, the fierce generals Wang Xin, Wang Kai, and Hao Zhi were all beaten to pieces. Wasn't it true that Ming Hao, the pacifier of Hebei Province, was also beaten to the point where he couldn't find Bei? The imperial court was also beaten.

The inducement to surrender and the reward were all ineffective. Your Majesty was frightened and restless. In the end, he had no choice but to send Wen Yanbo to defeat Wang Ze. As a result, the six prefectures in Hebei have been corrupted. What do you think of this time? Motor, Zhang Qing

If you don’t send an important minister to rebel, who should you send?”

Lu Qingyuan, who also came to see Bao Zheng off for his long journey, sighed and told Yun Zheng a clear story.

"Marquis Yun, I didn't expect you to come to see me out of the capital. I thought you would have a grudge against me after what happened last time. It seems that I have become a villain in vain." Bao Zheng saw Yun Zheng riding a horse.

I'm very happy to be in Changting.

"Old man Bao, I just can't bear that an old man like you has to travel five to six hundred miles to Qizhou to quell the chaos. Tell the truth, do you have any confidence in going this time?"

"Your Majesty sends you, the old minister has no choice but to die."

"Forget it, old man, you go talk to His Majesty. Qizhou is only 700 miles from Tokyo. I heard that the place where the rebellion was taking place is only 500 miles from Tokyo. Come and go quickly. It will only take two days. I will go on your behalf."

, don’t send a large army, I will take my generals and servants there, ten days will be enough.”

The imperial court was so unlucky that Yun Zheng didn't know what to say. That place in Hebei was the base for his northern advance. If he messed it up again, it would really delay a lot of things. He took his family there with him, even though he would

He couldn't think of any other good way to settle the facts, at least it was much better than Lao Bao going to Hebei and using the border troops. Looking at it, Yun Zheng was the only fool who dared to do such a thing.

Bao Zheng's eyes lit up, he grabbed the bridle of Yunzheng's horse and said, "Really? You are an expert in fighting. If I go, I will be wasting my life and money. It is indeed better if you go."

Yun Zheng sat on the horse and lowered his body to look down at Lao Bao and said: "I just don't understand. Di Shuai and I are both in Tokyo. Why don't we come to us for such a thing as war, but we have to send someone like you who doesn't know how to fight?

?As long as the hundreds of bandits are wiped out quickly, nothing will happen. Are you satisfied with seeing those people sitting in power? Or do you think the ministers prefer to see the smoke billowing in the Song Dynasty and corpses littering the fields?"

This sentence not only made Bao Zheng red-faced, but also made many officials who came to see him off were speechless. Bao Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the imperial court has another appointment for Marquis Yun! I think

It's so simple. I understand Marquis Yun's kindness, so I won't go through with it."

"Don't leave too fast. I have already applied for leave to the Privy Council. I plan to take my family generals and servants to Taiyi Mountain for hunting. I will also visit the Kong family in Qufu. If I have time, I will take the family who are entrenched in Zoucheng.

What kind of motor, Zhang Qing, kill him and hand over the head to you to take credit. To be honest, I look down upon you all just hiding in your arms.

As long as everything is done honestly and openly, there is nothing to be taboo about. The generals and servants of the Yun family are so powerful that I don’t have to hide it from anyone. This is the pride of the Yun family. It’s because everyone is hiding their petty intentions that people will be suspicious.

, I don’t believe that His Majesty can’t see clearly what is on the table? It’s no use to be a villain, he did it all by himself.”

After Yun Zheng said these words, he turned around and took Monkey and Han Niu straight to his village, where he planned to gather some servants to go hunting in Shandong. At first, he thought the emperor didn't send him because he didn't trust him, so he asked Lu

After clearing the source, I found out what kind of bullshit artifact it was to conquer the country. It was said that this bullshit principle should not be used lightly. It also said that using it once would weaken your luck...

When the Yun family's two hundred fully-armed cavalry went to Shandong to hunt in smoke, Zhao Zhen already knew Yun Zheng's movements, and thought about it for a while before saying to Chen Lin: "Why is Yun Zheng so wanton and reckless?

Who goes hunting in the spring?"

Chen Lin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, of course you are going hunting, but the target is Motor and Zhang Qing."

"The generals and servants of his family are stronger than the soldiers of the imperial dynasty!" Zhao Zhen thought for a moment and said quietly.

The Queen said on the side: "Your Majesty, this is a custom. A general cannot do without his own bodyguards. This is a practice passed down from ancient times. The role of a general's bodyguards in the army is irreplaceable. In times of greatest danger, the general's personal bodyguards cannot be replaced."

The guards are the last hope of the entire army, and they are nothing if not elite."

Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "I know this. Therefore, I have no limit on the number of personal guards Yun Zheng and Di Qing can have. The two of them seem to be very conscious and not excessive. I hope Yun Qing succeeds in hunting this time."

Chen Lin comforted the emperor and said: "This is a real overkill. Now that Marquis Yun has gone, Your Majesty does not have to worry. Qufu Confucius should be relieved this time. The Confucius Mansion built since the first year of Song Bao should not be in trouble."

.”

Zhao Zhen laughed at himself and said: "What Yun Qing said to Bao Zheng is actually right. It is really inappropriate for the court to be frightened by a hundred bandits. It is my sorrow that a famous general of the country will go to suppress the bandits."

Chen Lin cupped her hands and said: "Actually, there is no need for Marquis Yun to take action. The old slave thought that it would be enough for generals like Zhou Tong, Jiang Zhe and Lang Tan to go. What the old slave actually wondered was why Marquis Yun wanted to visit Duke Yan!

Everyone in the world knows that His Majesty wants to promote enlightenment and specially conferred the title of Holy Duke of Kong Jiayan in the spring. This is an important move of the country. Marquis Yun's trip must be as he said. The suppression of bandits is just on the way, and the most important purpose is probably to pay a visit.

Yan Shenggong."

Zhao Zhen sighed and said: "I will ask Yun Zheng when he comes back. I don't want to guess his behavior casually." (To be continued)
