I am Da Song

Chapter 123 Gyeonggi Transshipment
Mei Zhili is the prime minister. He has been in the officialdom for many years and has a deep understanding of people's hearts.Analyzed to Zhao Huan: "Kang Kang was appointed Marshal of the Army and Horses when the country was in crisis. He should be inspiring and loyal, and he should be diligent in relieving the king. But he was desperate, cowardly and fearful of war, and led the three armies to borrow detours. The iron case was like a mountain, and everyone in the world I can see clearly. King Kang is probably also worried at this time."

Zhao Huan nodded, Zhao Gou and Fan Ne and Zhao Ye are in the same sympathy.These few people are all in charge of heavy troops, but when the country is in crisis, they ignore the king's favor, stand still and sit on the sidelines.Even if the city of Tokyo and the court of the Song Dynasty were brutally ravaged by the golden cavalry.

At the end of the dynasty, it is nothing new for the princes to sit back and watch the court fall, and support troops to rule one side.These people have also bet right in history.

The only conflict is that Zhao Huan defended Tokyo, and they had to face the liquidation of the court.

But although Zhao Huan is staunch but not reckless, he knows to take care of the overall situation.There are already signs of rebellion in Nanjing, and Hebei can no longer rebel.

So Zhao Huan restrained the urge to execute Zhao Gou immediately, and instead ordered rewards and appeasement, he ordered: "Issue an edict to announce to the world that the Marshal of Bingma and Zhao Gou, the King of Kang, will work loyally and righteously in times of national calamity, unite the rebels, and defeat the enemy." Vigorous, defeated the Jin army repeatedly, made great contributions to the country, became the pillar of the country, made him king of Wei, and gave him 30 taels of silver."

Mei Zhili looked solemn, and asked, "Are the officials worried that King Kang, Minister Fan, and Director Zhao will be entangled?"

Although Zhao Gou ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor in Nanjing in history, Zhao Huan felt that it was difficult for these three people to be bound together.Zhao Gou's status is too embarrassing. He is both the prince and the general of the army. If he goes to Nanjing, he will easily take away the military power of Fan Ne and Zhao Ye.

If Fan Ne and Zhao Ye had no ambition to change the dynasty, they would not have allowed this to happen.

And just relying on three or two kittens, they obviously don't have the ability to change the dynasty.Unless there is a very powerful supporter, pushing them forward with incomparably powerful abilities, it is possible to change Da Song's world.

Thinking about it, a flash of light flashed in Zhao Huan's mind, but unfortunately he still couldn't figure out what the key link was.No matter how you look at it, these three soft bones are not capable of fighting the court to the end.

Zhao Huan said: "I just want to call Kang Wang back to the capital first, no matter what, let's get rid of this hidden danger first."

As for whether to find an interface to settle accounts with him in the future, it depends on how thick Zhao Huan is.

Mei Zhili agreed: "It's a safe move to remove Kang Wang's military power first. Reward the merits first, and then discuss it."

After all, the court has not found Zhao Gou, everything is expected, this is just the worst plan.

If the situation is optimistic, maybe Zhao Gou ran back when he heard that Tokyo had made a rescue.After all, this world is still the world of Song Dynasty, and he and Zhao Huan are also blood brothers, so they should not go to the point of fratricide.Moreover, with his weak temper, he should not dare to raise troops against the imperial court.

After talking about Zhao Gou, Zhao Huan said: "I called Prime Minister Zuo here today to talk to Prime Minister Zuo about the transshipment in Tokyo."

"Now that the siege of the city has been lifted and the Caohe River is reopening, how should the imperial court mobilize supplies to enter Beijing? The grain stored in the Zuoku can barely support the rations of the people in the inner city, but it will definitely not be able to supply the needs of millions of soldiers and civilians in Tokyo. New grain must be brought into Tokyo. to avoid famine."

Hearing this, Mei Zhili said solemnly: "I would like to recommend a capable minister to the officials to be responsible for solving this matter."

"Shan, Prime Minister Zuo really deserves to be in charge of the emperor, the important task of assistants." Zhao Huan praised with a smile.As a prime minister, he doesn't need to do everything himself, and he is already very competent and can be called a good prime minister if he can recommend talents to the emperor.

"Who is the prime minister on the left?"

"Zhimi Pavilion, Jingji Tixing, Jingji Road Transit Deputy Envoy Zhao Ding."

This long list of official positions alone amazed Zhao Huan.In addition to the fact that the post of Guan Ge is a false title, this minister is also in charge of the Gyeonggi Prison Department and the Gyeonggi Road Transit Department at the same time, which can be said to be in his hands.

Mei Zhili introduced: "Zhao Ding, Ziyuan Town, a native of Wenxi County, Xiezhou. He is well-versed in classics and history, and has great talents. He was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Chongning (1106). In May last year, he was imprisoned by Prime Minister Wu Min. Appreciated, he was promoted to Kaifeng Prefecture Shicao. At the end of December, because of his ancestral land, he was appointed as the deputy envoy of Jingji Road Transit."

"The Jinren committed a crime, and the Gyeonggi Road Transit Envoy followed tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians to seize the Wansheng Gate. Zhao Ding took full control of the Gyeonggi Road Transit Department."

Zhao Huan smiled and said with emotion: "Hedong Wenxi has many righteous men since ancient times. In ancient times, Guan Yunchang, and near Zhao Yuanzhen, can be called loyal ministers of the country. Call him to see him."

In fact, Zhao Huan knew the name Zhao Ding.However, the reputation of the four famous ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty is indeed not as loud as the four generals of ZTE.

Zhao Huan only remembered that he was a virtuous prime minister. The period when he and Zhang Jun were in the same phase was considered to be the most politically clear period in the early Southern Song Dynasty, known as "Xiao Yuanyou".

His experience before becoming prime minister is not so clear.Unexpectedly, this virtuous prime minister, the few ministers of the war faction in the Northern Song Dynasty are now under his command, and they are united under the command of the prime minister of the war faction, Mei Zhili.

Soon Zhao Ding arrived in the hall, and after saluting respectfully, Zhao Huan couldn't help but be amused, this virtuous minister with a long history is actually a little fat man, with fleshy cheeks, a pair of small round eyes, very pleasing in appearance.

Zhao Huan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Qing Zhao, do you think there is a lot of oil and water in the transfer department?"

Zhao Dingsurong replied: "The country is in danger, starvation is everywhere, and the officials don't ask about the bitterness and cold of the world, but only ask about the people's fat and people's anointment. How can it be the work of a sage king?"

Zhao Huan was dumbfounded. It has been a while since he traveled to the present, and finally he was inevitably remonstrated and ridiculed by these scholar-bureaucrats, gaining a wave of prestige.

However, Zhao Huan was not angry at this minister who wanted to work for him. The bosses of later generations would know how to treat the sales champion politely, not to mention that he is a majestic emperor.

So Zhao Huan also replied solemnly: "I am concerned about the suffering of the people in Tokyo, so I asked the Gyeonggi Road Transit Department how much money it has. Can you bring enough food to help the people?"

Zhao Ding also immediately borrowed the donkey from the slope, and said: "The benevolence of the officials, the sun and the moon, and the virtues of all the people are the blessings of the people of our Great Song Dynasty. Regarding the transfer department of Jingji Road, the most important thing is the four water transport routes."

Zhao Huan nodded. Tokyo's well-developed water transportation system has always been the pride of Song Dynasty.

Zhao Ding introduced: "Tokyo has four canals, including Caihe River, Guangji River, Jinshui River, and Bianshui River. There is no want of any kind.”

"I know these four canals for water transportation, and as far as I know, the Bianhe River transports the food in the southeast, and all the goods in the southeast enter Beijing from the Bianhe River to supply the needs of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Tokyo. But now there are a group of robbers sitting in the southeast, what do you plan to do?" To maintain Tokyo's supply?"

After hearing what the officials said, Zhao Ding lowered his head and frowned.

Nanjing is just southeast of the Bianhe River, with an army of more than [-].What kind of group of bandits can sit in the southeast under the eyes of this army of more than [-]?

Perhaps... Zhao Ding immediately had a rough guess about the situation.
