The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1825 Distribution of Grain and Grass

"Master, why don't we go back to Bianjing directly, why do we have to stay here all the time, it's not safe here after all, we'd better hurry back to Bianjing, we are needed there."

"What do you know, Bianjing, I have already arranged it. We can control the overall situation as long as we go back, but the situation here is closely related to our plan. We can neither let the Khitan win, nor let the Song army win. Then we have more chances.”

Zhao Pu has not returned to Bianjing until now. He has stopped walking along the way and has only walked a few miles. He is still paying attention to the war in the north. What he is saying now is the truth. Hope to win, just like this stalemate.

"But our side obviously suffers from this posture. Why did you design those plagues in the first place? Isn't this obviously helping the Khitan people? This is a bit inconsistent with what you just said?" This is for Khitan The butler who delivered the letter is Zhao Pu's most trusted person, and no one can replace his position in Zhao Pu's heart.

"You still don't understand, if we don't give Khitan some sweets, how can they willingly help to fight the Song army? As long as these hundreds of thousands of soldiers are entrusted here, our plan will soon be successful."

Looking into Zhao Pu's deep eyes, the housekeeper didn't know what his master was thinking. This was very contradictory. I thought he was determined to cooperate with Khitan, but I didn't expect that I really didn't understand this. Master.

"Okay, let's rest here tonight. I want to meet the Zhizhou and Tongpan here. These two people are trained by me. I have something to tell them, especially Tao Bing, me and His father's relationship is even better, and Tao Gu has already stood with me, and I want them to do some things, as much benefit as you want, you have to pay as much risk."

Zhao Pu has already arrived in Tanzhou, and he is not going to leave tonight. It seems that he has compiled a big net, which is a big net about interests, and some ministers in the court are all involved.

"Master Xiang, these small dishes are not bad, and only here can you eat such special snacks. Come and have a taste, this is specially prepared for you." In Tao Bing's private house, he was entertaining Zhao Pu , there are only the two of them here,

"Haha, you are caring. You can tell that you are very caring when you see these dishes. I accept your gratitude. You are an excellent young man."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Xiang. It is polite to say this. Yu Gong, you are the prime minister of the court, and I am also your subordinate. Yu privately, you and my father have been friends for many years. It is not right for a junior to entertain you." Well, besides, I did all these things by myself, and it was all designed to bend the law for personal gain, wasn't it?" Tao Bing's words were reasonable and reasonable, and Zhao Pu could only say that this young man was very good at talking and even more good at doing things.

"Okay, the future belongs to you young people. Don't you plan to return to Bianjing to take up a post? According to your father's influence, you will be able to gain a firm foothold in the court soon."

Zhao Pu really wanted to support this young man, not only because of his admiration for him, but also because of his relationship with Tao Gu.

"Bianjing is full of talented people. I don't have the idea of ​​going back yet. Isn't it better to train here for a few years?"

"Tao Bing didn't expect you to have such an awareness. I think we haven't seen each other for more than two years. Why did I hear your father say that you are here voluntarily and you don't want to go back to Bianjing?"

"Master Xiang thinks what I said just now, I will go back to Bianjing, but not now, the time is not yet ripe, by the way, Lord Xiang, stay in Tanzhou for a few more days this time, let me treat you well, By the grace of the Lord."

Zhao Pu paused before saying: "I want to take a good rest, but I really don't have time. There are so many things in the court that need to be dealt with, and I can't take it easy."

"Besides, I've been out for too long this time, and it's unreasonable not to go back. This time, I have something to discuss with you and let you do it. There is a letter here, so you can see it. "

Zhao Xu took out a letter. This letter was written in the name of Tao Gu. It was regarded as a family letter. It was nothing more than greetings. One of the most important items was to let Tao Bing Must obey Zhao Pu.

"Tao Bing, we are not outsiders. Let me just say it straight. You are the magistrate of Tanzhou. This is the closest to the front line between us and Khitan. This is also the base of money and food. Recently, some things happened in the court. All food and grass The supply may be insufficient, and it won't be long before the front line will come to urge food and grass again, what should you do by then?"

Food and grass have always been raised from Tanzhou nearby, but this is all allocated by the imperial court, and only allocated from the treasury of Tanzhou in special emergencies, but this time it is a bit strange for Zhao Pu to say these words, how can he care about this? something happened.

"Then what can we do? We can only transfer from the treasury according to the usual practice. This is stipulated by the court's rules and regulations." Tao Bing still doesn't know what he wants to do.

"There is nothing wrong with doing things in accordance with the rules and regulations of the imperial court, but there are still so many people in Tanzhou. You must know that only real achievements can make you promoted. Your Tao family depends on you, your father So many years of painstaking efforts cannot be wasted, just think about it, tomorrow you will distribute the grain and grass in the treasury to the people in the city..."

The next day, the treasury of the Tanzhou city government was opened. What the government said was that the common people had suffered for so many years, and now that the imperial court is well-off, it can be regarded as a little compensation for the common people.

When the people in the city heard that this was a good thing, they all said that the imperial court was wise, and of course some even said Tao Qingtian. They knew that the imperial court would not issue such an order, because the imperial court was still fighting against Khitan, so it was impossible for them to be so generous.

But the people don't care so much, as long as they can live well, they don't care about other things. Since the government said to give them these living things, they certainly accepted it. After all, this thing was given by the government voluntarily, not by them. Steal and grab.

But Tao Bing's complexion was very complicated. Is it right or wrong to do this, but Zhao Pu was very satisfied. He also prepared a memorial to recommend Tao Bing, and also told the court about the situation here, telling the people here Said that he had no food to eat and no clothes to cover his body. Tao Bing did a great job in doing so.

And Tao Bing also asked his subordinates to write two letters and send them out separately, and he also said that Shanhuan could do everything in time.It's not too late to know what it is, no one knows, I'm afraid only he himself knows.
