Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 416 Zhao Huan Three Questions
"Li Gang, Wang Jin, Lin Youyu, Yuwen Xuzhong, and Wanyan Zongqian stay here. The others should retreat and prepare for the Chinese New Year. The Chinese New Year is only two days away, so let's rest." Zhao Huan asked the courtiers to retreat.

They were already on annual leave, but Zhao Huan temporarily pulled people together and received a wave of Wang's report. Although there was overtime pay, it is estimated that the courtiers had long been cursing in their hearts.

If you scold, just scold, I am afraid that you will scold me?

Dare to curse out loud, no wages for overtime work!
Zhao Huan asked Zhao Ying to carry a huge sand table and put it in the center of Wende Hall, while Zhao Huan sat on the north side and Wanyan Zongqian sat on the south side.

Wanyan Zongqian looked at the huge sand table in front of him and knew that his test was coming.

He wants to live, but he doesn't want to die. The smarter the person, the more he cherishes his life.

He has been showing off his intelligence all the way, in fact, it is a period of time to show off his ability to the Song Dynasty officials.

"I heard you say that when I was the prince, I was caught eating mutton by the palace people, and then spit it out."

"Now I tell you clearly that I have been arrested sixteen times during the seven years I have been the prince. Every time I gritted my teeth and thought that I must eat mutton every day when I became the emperor. As a result, I became the emperor and found that I was too busy. I can't take care of it." Zhao Huan looked at Wanyan Zong and said with a dry smile.

Wanyan Zongqian understood the meaning of Zhao Huan's expression in an instant, that is, he would always follow the people of the Imperial City Department of the Song Dynasty by his side.

The second meaning is to answer the sentence Yan Zongqian said, the emperor speaks fart.

If one day he Wanyan Zonggan is useless, he will die.

"Excuse me from the official, you must know everything and say everything." Wanyan Zongqian bowed his head and said.

"What do you think of the current situation in the Jin and Song Dynasties?" Zhao Huan said, pointing to the map model on the sand table.

Wanyan Zongqian looked at the sand table for a long time, and said, "Officials, I have a word. Move the capital!"

"When the officials come to Yanjing in person, they can launch a conquest against the Kingdom of Jin."

"The north of this place is Beigukou, the terrain is dangerous, and [-] elite soldiers can be as strong as gold. The east is Shanhaiguan. After the capital is moved, Shanhaiguan can be the gate of the Song Dynasty, and it can attack Liaoyang. The east is Juyongguan Yunzhong Road, which can be attacked from Yunzhong to Linhuang. Go to Beijing."

After Wanyan Zonggan finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Huan. Of course, he would not be so stupid as to analyze the situation in the Jin and Song Dynasties. The officials were like a mirror in their hearts, and he was making fun of his own life by playing sloppy with him.

"Continue talking." Zhao Huan took a cup of hot tea brought over by Zhao Ying, and slowly tasted it.

Wanyan Zongqian did not show off, pointing to the huge sand table and said: "There are advantages and disadvantages. The establishment of Yanjing as the capital may lead to the loss of control in the south. Besides, the matter of establishing the capital is a big matter, so we should not take risks lightly."

"You can still use Bianjing as the capital first, and control the world. Set Yanjing as your place, and then Lin'an as your place, and control the north and south. Then renovate the Yongji Canal from Luoyang to Yanjing. Repair water transportation to promote commerce , the national power will grow stronger day by day.”

"Good!" Zhao Huan put down the teacup, did Wanyan Zong work so hard?

Zhao Huan had more ideas about the canal.

From the north ferry of the Yellow River in Bianjing, a railway is being built to Yanjing, and a cement plant is already under construction. When the route is determined, bridges and roads will be built, and the capacity will be increased by another level.

"My second question, the century-old national destiny of the Great Song Dynasty." Zhao Huan put down his teacup, looked at Wanyan Zongqian and asked.

Great Song Guoyun, why do you ask me a golden man!
Wanyan Zongqian looked at Zhao Huan's aggressive eyes, and sat on the stool in a daze.

"Does the official know that someone has deduced the fate of the Song Dynasty?" Wanyan Zongqian felt that he had also met a very smart person.

Zhao Huan nodded. Since Wanyan Zongqian deduced the fate of the Jin Kingdom, it would be ridiculous if he did not deduce the Great Song Dynasty.

"Official, can I ask you a question?" Wanyan Zongqian lowered his head and said.

Zhao Huan said, "Ask."

"The imperial case of the official family was changed when the official family ascended the throne." Wanyan Zongqian said, pointing to the imperial platform behind Zhao Huan.

Zhao Huan really didn't know about this, he glanced at Zhao Ying, this is a matter of entering the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Of course it was changed after the official ascended the throne." Zhao Ying replied truthfully.

Wanyan Zongqian nodded, sat down and said: "When I was in Huanglong Mansion, a certain person was very confident in the deduction of Song Dynasty."

"When I arrived in Rehe, Wang Teng and his Jiesheng army changed a lot of my views on the soldiers of the Song Dynasty. I began to doubt my deduction."

"When I arrived at Yuguan, I and General Han Shizhong called each other brothers, and I had some doubts about the various measures of the Song people to treat the Bohai people preferentially. I reviewed my deduction and repaired it."

"When I arrived at Requiem Mountain, I saw the people of Bianjing. When I entered Beijing, I saw the prosperity and prosperity of Bianjing. When I arrived at Wende Hall, I saw the imperial case. I know my deduction. Totally wrong."

Zhao Huan looked back at his desk. He had used that desk for a year. What does this have to do with the great Song Dynasty fortune he asked?
"Why?" Yuwen Xuzhong hurriedly asked, this is his disciple, in front of the officials, he talks in a cloud, do you still want to live? !
"Because there is a part of the official's imperial case that is extremely smooth, it is supposed to be the place where the official approves the letter." Wanyan Zongqian pointed to a corner of the imperial case and said.

Zhao Huan looked back, not to mention, that place was really his usual place to review memorials.

These eyes are too poisonous!

Zhao Huan turned his head and glanced at the sword on the wall, people who are too smart don't live long!
Do you know how Yang Xiu died?The killing intent in Zhao Huan's heart revived again.

"The officials asked about the fate of our country, and I found that my understanding of the Song Dynasty was only a glimpse of the leopard. How dare you talk nonsense?"

"However, I think the Great Song Dynasty will definitely be in the hands of the officials and become a prosperous age far ahead of the Tang and Han Dynasties!" Wanyan Zongqian said loudly.

Zhao Huan shook his head and said, "You're a good flatterer, but unfortunately I know that you said it to save your life. This question, after a year, after you understand Song Dynasty, you can answer me."

One question for one year of life, Zhao Huan finally decided.

"I have a third question." Zhao Huan said with piercing eyes, "What do you think of the fortunes of the Jin Kingdom?"

"Three to five years." Wanyan Zongqian uttered a word in despair, leaned on the back of the chair, and panted violently.

Three to five years?
Zhao Huan himself was stunned, he thought Wanyan Zongdao would argue with himself in a truthful and reasonable manner, Jin people are tenacious and can always last ten or eight years, the result?
Just three to five years?
"Tell me the reason." Zhao Huan said.

"Wanyan Sheng died early, that is, three years, and Wanyan Sheng died late, that is, five years. The difference is not two years."

Wanyan Zongqian said in a daze: "Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang are both members of the Taizu family. They have already established the Western Dynasty in a substantial way. How could Wanyan Sheng's family let the power fall to the side? They must be beaten to the ground. At this time When the Song Dynasty advances, the Jin people have the strength to resist?"

"Or is it that the officials of the Great Song Dynasty are unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and they will not take advantage of the civil strife among the Jin people to take advantage of the opportunity to enter the army?"

"Is there any reason?" Zhao Huan asked.

Wanyan Zonggan's complexion became painful, he barely straightened his body, and said, "Officials, what do you think is the most important thing in a country?"

"Money and food? Soldiers? The court is clear? The monarch is wise?" Zhao Huan gave several answers.

He has plenty of money and food, and the mental outlook of the soldiers has also improved a lot. The new army is under construction, and the court is still relatively clear.

"The officials are absurd." Wanyan Zonggan's face became more and more miserable.

He cried out in pain, "Officials, they are talents!"

"I don't know if the officials have seen that until now, all the enemies of the Great Song Army have the surname Wanyan?!"

"There is no one in the Kingdom of Jin!"

Zhao Huan was stunned, watching Wanyan Zongqian speechless, he really didn't pay attention, he seemed to be facing people with the surname Wanyan, what he said was very reasonable.

Talent is the most important when.

Zhao Huan counted the people he met when he came to Song Dynasty. Li Gang, Sun Bo, He Li, Zhong Shidao, Yue Fei, Liu Qi, Chen Gui, Chen Dong, Ouyang Che, etc. were all talents.

And how did these talents appear in front of him?

Some came from imperial examinations, such as Li Gang, Sun Bo, etc., some came from national examinations, such as Chen Dong and Ouyang Che are still students of Taixue, and some came from recommendation, such as Yue Fei and Chen Gui.

As for the Kingdom of Jin, Zhao Huan was silent, and the Kingdom of Jin, which had lost Wanyan Zongqian, could not even implement the imperial examination system.

"Wanyan Zongqian, let me ask you, why are you trying so hard to display your intelligence and talent?" Zhao Huan asked.

Wanyan Zongqian pulled away the bench, knelt down in front of Zhao Huan slowly, and said, "If the officials agree to a trivial suggestion."

"I, Wang You, will be the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty with all my heart and brains, and I will serve you loyally! I will tie a grass and tie a ring to repay the kindness of the officials of the Great Song Dynasty! I will not recite it in this life! If there is any violation, I will cut off my children and grandchildren! Heaven and earth will perish! Heaven and earth will condemn!"
