Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 304 Yu Wenxu returns to Beijing
Yu Wenxuzhong's second trip to Beijing was silent, and this time he had a panoramic view of the prosperity of Bianjing, instead of rushing like last time.

But this time, not many people in Bianjing recognized him.He walked through the streets of Bianjing step by step. In the past few years in Jinren, has he ever seen such a prosperous age?

Yu Wenxuzhong took Yu Wenzhong and Hua Gu back home, and wanted to see his old mother, but the mother refused to see him.

This made Yu Wenxuzhong very headache, and the old man was very stubborn.

Yuwenxuzhong's old mother stubbornly believed that Yuwenxuzhong was a second minister, so no one would say it would work.

Therefore, Yuwenxu was in a bad mood, but Yuwen saw his old mother again, which made Yuwenxu have mixed feelings.

When Zhao Ying found Yuwenxuzhong, he saw Yuwenxuzhong with a lonely face.

"The official family has returned to Beijing." Zhao Ying asked Yuwen Xuzhong to face the saint.

Yu Wenxu arranged his clothes a little bit, and followed Zhao Ying.

And Yu Wenxuzhong's old mother, seeing Yu Wenxuzhong going out from the window sill, burst into tears.

A second minister is a second minister, this is what the old man thinks.

But Zhao Huan didn't think so.

"Life is nosy as soon as you die, and you don't forget your canthus piercing your chest! It's so courageous and courageous!" Zhao Huan spoke highly of Yu Wenxuzhong's work behind enemy lines in the Kingdom of Jin.

There is a saying in his inscription of loyalty to the soul, don't go to the water and fire with your relatives and children, but seek great harmony when facing the enemy.

It is talking about the influence of Huangcheng Division on the war situation of the Song Dynasty, and it is also praising people like Yu Wenxuzhong, who changed their appearance in obscurity and worked under the enemy's hands, but still did not forget their loyalty to the country.

So Zhao Huan's praise is not excessive at all.

And Yu Wenxu lowered his head for a long time, then bowed his head and said: "I stay in the country of tigers and wolves alone, serve the two masters and steal my life. I am ordered by the Kingdom of Jin, set up an official system for him, pardon the text, and enjoy wealth and honor. It is really difficult to judge this. Officials praised it."

"Employment in all directions, not to disgrace the king's order, Su Wu has it, and the minister can do it."

Yu Wenxu said this because he thought that Su Wu was also an envoy to Beiyi, but he did not surrender until his death, but he himself did not keep the chastity in order to survive. Today, although the officials praise him, he himself does not Take credit and be proud.

Zhao Huan shook his head. Yu Wenxuzhong's second minister was a fact. After he surrendered, he was instigated by the people of the Imperial City Division, and then he won people's hearts step by step, and became the supervisor of the Imperial City Division of the Kingdom of Jin.

He was indeed limited by the great terror of life and death, and surrendered to the Jinren, but he also cherished his homeland, which is rare.

He also assassinated the clan of the Kingdom of Jin, sacrificing his life without fear of death.

If he didn't make a very special contribution, would he be able to climb to the position of Supervisor of the Imperial City Division?

Generally speaking, the merits outweigh the demerits, and the demerits can be offset.

Such a great talent returned to Beijing, naturally he should be treated with all kinds of courtesy.

"I want to re-appoint you as a Zhongshu Sheren. What do you think?" Zhao Huan asked.

Zhongshu Sheren is a good official. He writes imperial edicts to the emperor, communicates between the emperor and the prime minister, understands major events in the world, and understands the emperor's ruling philosophy. He is an official who prepares the prime minister.

The position Zhao Huan arranged was after careful consideration. He felt that this official position was in line with Yu Wenxu's talents.

"Today's court hall is very different from the decayed and dark court hall in the past. There are a lot of talents in the court. I think that the minister's virtue is not worthy, and the minister is unwilling to be an official, so I ask the official to withdraw his order." Yu Wenxuzhong replied immediately. road.

Virtue does not match, the law of the ancestors.

In the past, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin intended to move the capital, but Zhao Guangyi rebuked him by saying that he was not in danger.

And this Zhao Guangyi, who cultivated virtue to Huaiyuan, was really good. He set this "morality" so that the Song Dynasty was limited to the word "virtue" from the common people to the officials.

How difficult is it to break the shackles of the heart?Zhao Huan finally felt something.

He greeted Yue Fei with a grand ceremony at Chenqiaoyi, but Yue Fei turned around and ran away.

He appointed himself a candidate for prime minister, but was rejected by Yuwen Xuzhong.

Zhao Huan thought for a while and said: "Censor Zhongcheng, Zhao Dingzhen, Zhongshu Sheren, this Yushi Zhongcheng, the chief admonisher, can't refuse. Criticize current events and correct policy mistakes at any time."

"This can no longer be excused."

I really can't refuse anymore, the emperor wants to save face, you really don't accept the whole three speeches, everyone is not good-looking!
Yu Wenxu thought for a while, and said: "I thought that the official family would give me an idle official, but I didn't expect it to be the post of prime minister."

Although he is a censor Zhongcheng, he is also a court official who participates in politics, and he is actually a very big official who has mastered Taiwan advice.

"The king's kindness will never be forgotten by the minister." Yuwen Xuzhong still accepted the appointment.

At this time, the censor Zhongcheng is Zhao Ding, so Zhao Ding will naturally go to Zhongshusheren.

And Zhu Shengfei, the former member of Zhongshushe, also served as a lecturer, that is, to teach the prince, and Zhao Huan's whereabouts of Zhu Shengfei was also to help Li Gang, Shangshu Youcheng.

At this time, Sun Bo was working as a strategic envoy on Hedong Road, so he could not help Li Gang at all. Now the work of the entire Shangshu Province was burdened by Li Gang alone.

Zhao Huan nodded, he accepted the official of the Song Dynasty, but he was still a member of the Song Dynasty, that's enough.

"Officials, the minister was released on parole by Wanyan Zongwang. His idea was to convince Song Dynasty of Jin's determination to negotiate peace, and then use false edicts to force the Song army to withdraw from Pingzhou. Then he was released by Yue Xiaowei and General Han. Seeing through the treacherous scheme failed."

"But Jinren, it is true that he intends to negotiate a peace. Wanyan Zonghan entrusted someone to send a letter to his ministers, saying that if the officials agree to negotiate a peace and release his second son Wanyan Xiebao, then Wanyan Zonghan can be released to the king."

"General Wang Zhi's battle in Linhuang was extremely difficult. He guarded the city, but he was still surrounded by Wanyan Zonghan's troops. I don't know how the officials think about Wang Bao's matter?"

Zhao Huan just remembered that Zhao Yingluo, the emperor of Shunde, gave birth to Wanyan Zonghan's child, and was arrested by Yue Fei in Datong Mansion.

This Wanyan Xiebao has been sent back to Bianjing, and is now being fostered in the official residence of Liufengtang in Bianjing.

It's not a loss for a little milk baby to be exchanged for a king!

Zhao Huan felt that this business could be done.

"The purpose of General Wang and Captain Sun's attack on Linhuang is to delay the time for the military fort in Fengsheng Prefecture. It is he Wanyan Zonghan who wants to exchange. I agree, but Wang Ting may not agree." Zhao Huan shook his head and said.

Whether Wang Zhi withdraws his troops depends on whether the military fort in Fengsheng Prefecture has been built.

Even if Zhao Huan sent someone to take Wanyan Xiebao to Wanyan Zonghan's barracks, it was hard to say whether Wang Ting would retreat.

Wang Zhi gave up his life and forgot to die. He guarded Taiyuan City for more than 3000 days with 200 people. This is in Linhuang. There are [-] troops and general Sun Yi. He is counting on him to retreat without completing his strategic goals.

It is hard to say that Wang Ting will agree.

Zhao Huan thought for a while and said: "Linhuang needs to stick to it for a year to delay Yan Zonghan's southward attack on Yunzhong Road. This cannot be changed."

"However, if the battle in Linhuang doesn't go well, I allow Wang Tian and Sun Yi to surrender to the Jinren."

After Zhao Huan finished speaking, Yu Wenxu's face changed several times, and he said after a long time: "Allow the second general to join the enemy?"

The emperor seemed very wise before, why is this decree so stupid now?

If the general surrenders to the enemy, isn't he the second Li Ling?

How could there be such a stupid decision?
And Zhao Huan also thought about Li Ling's matter, so he decided.

"When the time comes, use up Yan Xiebao to exchange Wang Ti, Sun Yi and the soldiers back."

What Zhao Huan wanted was to keep Wang Tien, Sun Yi, and the [-] victorious troops.

If the green hills are kept, there is no need to worry about no firewood.
