After sending Liu Yongnian away, Zhao Xin asked someone to find a map of the Qingtang Dynasty and read it. "Jiao Siluo, you are truly a hero!" Looking at the map, Zhao Xin couldn't help but sigh.
Qingtang is very big and the situation is very complicated.
There are Tubo people, Dangxiang people, Uighurs, and Han tycoons left here from the Tang Dynasty.
Religion is also a mixed bag.
There are Tibetan nobles who devoutly believe in Buddhism, and there are Bon Tibetans who swear to exterminate Buddhism and smash Buddha statues.
At first, Jiao Siluo was just a puppet like Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty.
Holding this bad hand, he managed to create a stable and unified situation.
Under his rule, although Bon believers and Buddhist believers still hated and opposed each other, they were not as prone to stabbing people with knives as in the past.
All ethnic groups can basically live and work in peace and contentment and enjoy peace.
This kind of person is not a hero. Who is a hero?
So, Zhao Xin closed her eyes: "What I was able to do in my previous life, I should do better in this life!"
In his previous life, during the early and middle periods of his reign, through Lu Quanquan and others, he continued to send Buddhist monks to the Qing and Tang Dynasties, quietly and quietly, and won the closeness and submission of a large number of Tibetan nobles of the Qing and Tang Dynasties.
Finally, when Dong Xiang was killed by his adopted son and his wife, he conspired to kill him.
Under the banner of "bringing order to order" and "reviving and destroying the country and continuing the peerless world", the King of Song Dynasty divided his troops into three groups, marching from Qinzhou and Xizhou into the Qingtang Dynasty.
Along the way, the Tubo tribe leaders, nobles and Buddhist monks drank pots of pulp to welcome the king.
Qingtang then decided back.
pity……
He was so impatient at the time that after pacifying the Qing and Tang Dynasties, he couldn't wait to announce the re-establishment of order in the Han and Tang Dynasties.
As a result, numerous noble rebellions were triggered, and the chaos in the Qing and Tang Dynasties lasted for nearly ten years until the fall of Xixia.
But the price was that tens of thousands of Song Dynasty soldiers buried their bones in Hehuang and Plateau.
The country's military expenditures have accumulated into the tens of millions.
It also ruined the credibility of the Song Dynasty. From then on, the Uighur tribes who were originally close to and trusted the Song Dynasty began to stay away from the Song Dynasty.
This lesson is very profound!
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!" Zhao Xin looked at the map in front of him: "Military matters should be planned slowly!"
Of course, the strategy of recovering the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties and restoring China's old frontiers will not change.
At most, change the method.
Use a gentler, calmer, and more acceptable approach instead of ugly military annexation.
Zhao Xin, who has ruled the world for a lifetime, already knows that military means is the worst option among all options, it is the final option, and it is the method that can only be chosen when all other options have failed or force must be used!
To rule the country and govern the world, one cannot act on one's own whim, nor can one act according to one's own preferences.
Because, as a king, every move he makes affects countless people.
Just like in his previous life, a thoughtless move caused tens of thousands of soldiers to be buried alive, but they would not have died in the first place.
"Forget it, in this life, I will learn the story of Zhuge Wuhou and how he captured Meng Huo seven times and seven times!" Zhao Xin slowly closed his eyes.
Qingtang is a good experimental field.
Many models and possibilities for the future can be explored and explored.
Of course, that means he has plenty of time and can observe slowly.
Otherwise, I'm afraid the choices I can make are not much different from those in my previous life.
…………………………
Liu Yongnian walked out of Chunfang, and someone immediately came to greet him: "Jun Xi...what did the Duke say?"
It was his uncle who came, Liu Congguang, the defense commander of Chuzhou.
Liu Yongnian looked at his uncle, hesitated for a moment, weighed it for a long time, and then said: "Don't be anxious, sir. This afternoon, the two houses should be relaxed..."
Liu Yongnian knew why his uncle was so concerned about this matter.
The Hexi Jiedu envoy came to visit this time, which was a big deal!
In particular, as soon as the two benefits he promised to 'increase the tribute of horses' and 'persuade the ministries to increase the tribute of horses' were spread, Bianjing City Traffic and Information Shop immediately reacted - all of this year and next year
The price of horse racing tickets immediately increased by 10%.
The prices of salt coupons, cloth coupons and the most important Jiaozi coupons also all increased.
Just like this, the Liu family's paper wealth increased by hundreds of thousands of dollars overnight!
If we can detect the tone of the court in advance, especially the attitude of the Duke, and determine the success or failure of this Song and Qing Tang transaction, then we can decide in advance whether to buy or sell in large quantities.
The commercial benefits involved are immeasurable!
In the face of such huge interests, Liu Congguang naturally ignored the so-called taboos, taboos and other rules and came directly to Liu Yongnian.
Now, after hearing Liu Yongnian's answer, Liu Congguang was naturally dissatisfied. He took Liu Yongnian's hand and said, "Jun Xi, this is no small matter..."
"Just because it is not a trivial matter, sir, please forgive my nephew for being rude!" Liu Yongnian said calmly: "Sir, what do we need so much money for?"
"It is not worth it to be evil to your superior because of money!"
Liu Yongnian thought very clearly.
The Liu family's status and preferential treatment were brought about by strong winds.
If there had been no chapter dedicated to Empress Dowager Mingsu, he and Liu Congguang would probably still be working as silversmiths in Yizhou, and they might not even be able to afford to read.
However, now that the Empress Dowager Zhang Xianmingsu has passed away, the current officials, for the sake of their past reputation and relatives, are willing to lend a hand to the Liu family and give them glory and wealth.
But what about the next generation?
If the official family is offended, how can the Liu family rely on it?
Therefore, we must be cautious, cautious, and even trembling.
Duke Shou of Chunfang has no relationship or friendship with the Liu family.
Through his own observation, Liu Yongnian also understood that this master was not as tolerant as the officials of the previous dynasty and would unconditionally favor the faults of his relatives.
He doesn't want to be alienated because of a few dollars.
So Liu Yongnian bowed to Liu Congguang and said, "If you have nothing else to do, my nephew, I will take my leave!"
Then he picked up his feet, stepped forward, puffed out his chest, and walked to the political hall, leaving Liu Congguang where he was, quite embarrassed.
After a long time, the imperial relative paced, took his horse, cursed and followed Liu Yongnian, heading towards the political hall.
However, he was not there to ask questions.
Instead, like other royal relatives, they went outside the Political Affairs Hall to wait for news.
In the Song Dynasty, there had been a hundred years of peace, and all kinds of internal and external trade, as long as there were oil and water matters, had already been completely controlled and monopolized by the related households.
The owners of Jiaoyin shops in Bianjing City are basically the generals of the three yamen, relatives of the emperor, and relatives of the ministers of the two governments.
Others are not even qualified to drink some soup here!
