Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 258 It's Time for the Supreme Emperor to Return to Beijing

Every prime minister who is motivated and wants to reform hopes to have a powerful emperor who supports him.

As for what kind of emperor Zhao Huan wants to be?Is it the emperor or the official family?None of that matters.

Li Gang wants to increase the power and majesty of the officials!In this way, he will be safe enough.

It's not that Li Gang regrets his life, but he just hopes that he can live safely enough to the day when his policies are fully implemented.

Zhao Huan nodded, and finally got a definite answer to his question about politics.

"The knife is in our hands, so don't be afraid. Just do it boldly. I will protect you from the court's criticism. As long as it can make my Song Dynasty prosperous! I am willing to use the butcher's knife." Zhao Huan gave Li Gang a reassurance.

In fact, many policies require the prime minister and the emperor to reach a consensus, but there are many policies that cannot be reached before the court meeting.

"That's it, it's getting late, I'm going back to the palace now, and you, make good preparations for the abolition of the system of buying and selling. If you want someone, I'll give you someone. If you want money, I'll give you money. This matter has been done solidly, so don’t leave any future troubles. You still have to plan and save, you can do it yourself, and replace people when you need to.”

Zhao Huan not only wanted to be Li Gang's backing, but also gave Li Gang the greatest amount of power, and then carried it out.

Li Gang drank another glass of wine and said: "The officials wait a moment. If this matter fails, there will be a big shock in the court and the public. There will be constant criticisms in the court, and there will be voices of opposition outside the court. Just pull out the officials and kill them. Just restore the old system in an all-round way.”

"How could it fail?" Zhao Huan shook his head. This matter benefits the country and the people. Who can stop the momentum?
It's not just a class outside the members that can stop it!The gangs and gangsters they can rely on are nothing to mention in front of the tax inspection team composed of sergeants.

You know, Zhao Huan didn't intend to let this group of tax-collecting sergeants be equipped with bare hands, armor, bows and crossbows one by one.

"It is necessary to establish a supervisory department and visit the people to prevent the newly appointed inspectors from imitating the gangsters and arbitrarily raising taxes." Li Gang suggested.

Zhao Huan nodded and said, "In order to prevent more incidents, to eliminate the real villains, and to implement the new business tax in a smooth and orderly manner."

"I have decided to set up a special department to fight crime! Bullies, rangers, hooligans, and hooligans will not be let go! All ghosts and monsters in the city will be wiped out! If there is a problem with the inspection team, it will be dealt with severely!"

After Zhao Huan finished speaking, he scratched his head. What he implemented in the countryside was to equalize the land, and what he implemented in the city was to eradicate gangsters and evil. Does this count as two blossoms?
Reforms from top to bottom, as well as changes from bottom to top, can change the Song Dynasty.

Satisfied, Zhao Huan walked out of Dazaifu.

The next day, Li Gang distributed the beef that Zhao Huan had given him to the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty, and all the officials smiled happily.

On the third day, Li Gang wrote "Chen Anshang's Ten Strategies", and as soon as these ten strategies came out, the court was shaken, and all the officials couldn't laugh.

The people in Bianjing were panicked.

Abolish the rush to buy?Determine business tax?Special rectification of tax chaos?More than that.Zhao Huan's special rectification campaign against gangsters and evil was also introduced together with Chen Anshang's ten strategies.

The members of Bianjing rebelled!
Together with the gangs in the city, they are ready to find the culprit, Li Gang, and deal with him.

The gangs in the city are very confident because they beat Li Gang before.

The gap between the dispute between the temple and the rivers and lakes is too far away, because Li Gang strictly sealed everything that happened when Bamen entered Beijing that day, so the gangs far away from the rivers and lakes did not clearly realize that the current Li Gang is no longer The original Li Gang.

Because the officials came back with soldiers.

They only know that those business managers and managers are all locked up in the big prison.

And the way they went to find Li Gang was also a routine method used by the Song Dynasty to deal with reformers like Wang Anshi.

The officials of the Song Dynasty had to rely on them for food, and they had to rely on them to collect business taxes and support those trash-like forbidden soldiers.

Therefore, they rushed to Dazaifu without fear, and the gang suffered heavy casualties. The city defense army entered the venue in person to search the city for the gang involved.

There are [-] Yongding soldiers in Dazaifu!
The leader and leading members were cut in half.

The other gangsters involved in the case were all sentenced to imprisonment.

It is deprivation of liberty, imprisonment in a certain place, and forced labor.

In the Song Dynasty, there was a big pit to be filled in Hebei, the Yanjing Road pass was being built, and there was a military fort and civilian fort in Fengsheng Prefecture, and the East Road was rebuilding Taiyuan City. Even Guanzhong and He Li needed manpower there. Clarify the corruption of Changping warehouse in Song Dynasty and rebuild Changping warehouse.

Therefore, the official family is very short of manpower now. It is a pity that so many people directly cut it off. It is better to do some work for Song Dynasty under the supervision of the bow and crossbow.

"Officials, a total of more than [-] people have been imprisoned." Li Gang bowed his head and said.

The tattoo culture was prevalent in the Song Dynasty, and tattoos are also known as embroidery, although in various romances, tattoos look very cool.

But in the Song Dynasty, this kind of behavior was not accepted by the public. In the imperial examination system of the Song Dynasty, when checking whether there was a cheat sheet in the imperial examination, the embroidery would be checked. The officialdom of the Song Dynasty clearly did not accept tattoos. .

In the mainstream of the Song Dynasty, tattooing on the face is more of a punishment, and this is where the bandits join the army.

The flower arm Li Gang mentioned was the gang member involved in the case.

"Let's send them all to Hebei Road to fill in the pits. Order people to take care of them." Zhao Huan sighed. How can there be no bloodshed in any system change. The bloody person may be himself or the enemy.

"One more thing. In Lin'an, King Tong sent a lot of stolen goods from the Cui family involved in the exchange with the Kingdom of Jin. King Tong has doubts about the Cui family. This is Prince Tong's letter." Li Gang said from his arms. He took out a letter and didn't know whether to hand it in or not.

Zhao Huan ordered Zhao Ying to bring up the letter, looked at it for a long time, and sighed.

"Tong Guan is a loyal servant of the Supreme Emperor." Zhao Huan sighed.

The reason why Tong Guan brought this matter to Bianjing instead of letting Zhao Ji handle it is to let Zhao Ji live a more comfortable life for a few more days.

The imperial army in Zhao Ji's hands is collapsing, and there is a mutiny. Zhao Ji's dominance over the imperial army has almost disappeared, Zhao Ji is not clear about all this.

And after Zhao Ji knew about the Cui family, he would probably ask Tong Guan to lead the soldiers to implement the scorched earth policy again.

The scorched-earth policy of the third year of Xuanhe was able to be implemented because Zhao Ji was the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

And this soldier is the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty.

now what?Zhao Ji couldn't do this kind of thing anymore.

Because the soldiers in Zhao Ji's hands are the Imperial Army of the Great Song Dynasty, not the elite of the Western Army.

The result of reckless actions is to stir up popular uprisings.

The ruined camp and the squatting camp are already in jeopardy. If there is a civil uprising, then Zhao Ji's chances of returning to Bianjing alive may be very small.

So Tong Guan chose to present the Zhanlu Sword and begged Zhao Huan to solve the Cui family's problems.

Zhao Huan glanced at Zhao Ying. As a servant in the interior, he knew that he could do nothing but serve people.

"Zhao Duzhi, what's for dinner tonight?" Zhao Huan felt a little hungry when he saw Zhao Ying.

In fact, Zhao Ying's behavior is quite good. In the end, the eunuch's meddling in politics did not end well at all, and almost all of them were ruined.The eunuchs had no heirs, and no one refuted them.

Every time the court changes, everyone scolds women and eunuchs.Probably so.

"Li Dong Beef Crisp." Zhao Ying replied honestly.

Zhao Huan said to Li Gang: "Li Dazai stay and have dinner together."

"Zhao Ying doesn't know anything else, she is definitely good at cooking." Zhao Huan said with a smile.He kept flapping Tong Guan's letter in his hand.

It's time for Zhao Ji to return to Beijing.
