Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 589 Everything Has Two Sides

After Yang Zaixing returned to the camp full of ambition, the news that he killed King Zhao of the Kingdom of Jin with one move quickly spread throughout the Phoenix Mountain military camp!
"Lieutenant Yang, I should call you Captain Yang tomorrow. You killed the first prince of the Kingdom of Jin." Shen Cong looked at the big head in front of him, shook his head with a smile and shouted loudly: "Have a banquet!"

Yang Zaixing touched his head, and asked with a smile: "With this level, what kind of battlefield do you go to? It's not enough to embarrass their Jinren."

"What is a first-class prince? Is it worth money?" Yang Zaixing asked with a silly smile. Combined with his ferocious face and fierce honesty, people couldn't help laughing.

Shen Cong said with a smile: "All the princes named after the Warring States Period are first-class princes. The rest are county princes. This has been the case since the Zhou Dynasty."

"That's why King Zhao is a first-class prince. For example, Tong Guan's Guangyang County King and Yifu's Guang'an County King are both second-class county kings."

"The princes are also different. They are divided into two classes. The first-class princes are generally the heirs of the emperor."

Yang Zaixing understood Shen Cong's words with his fingers, shook his head vigorously and said: "It's so strange that these civil servants are making twists and turns, and they can't figure it out. Just tell me how many rewards this prince has."

"Twenty thousand Song Yinyuan. Promoted to three levels in a row." Shen Cong said with a smile: "Lieutenant Yang, your position is getting higher and higher. You must understand these basic things."

Yang Zaixing looked at Shen Cong suspiciously, and asked, "General Shen, I'm a military ruffian. If I win a battle, I will cut off the enemy's head. If I lose the battle, I will be beheaded myself. Why do you know this?"

Shen Cong looked at Yang Zaixing's appearance, this general of the Song Dynasty who was able to match Yue Fei [-]-[-] in terms of strength, did not care about these things at all.

He thought for a while and said: "I am a general in Song Dynasty, I don't understand these things, and I don't know how to die one day. Have you forgotten about Di Shaobao?"

"Scary! Di Qing who was scared to death by civil servants! It's my father's! I won't be promoted to this official!" Yang Zaixing wiped the sweat from his forehead, and only after Shen Cong reminded him did he understand the danger.

Shen Cong nodded, sipped a cup of tea and said, "The salary of eating the emperor, the matter of loyalty to the emperor, and the rest are up to us."

"When the Yanjing Army was first formed, General Yue specially asked for an order to send you to the Yanjing Army as a second official. He wrote a letter to me to untie the knot between me and him back then, and at the same time please ask me to train you well. .”

Yang Zaixing nodded, he still knew about Yue Fei and Shen Cong's pimples.

When General Yue was still Bing Yilang, he was arranged by the officials to be in the palace, where he led the relatives to check and balance Shen Cong's relatives. Afterwards, Yue Fei led the troops to Xingzhou Canyon, and the knot between the two of them has never been resolved.

Yue Fei gave Shen Cong a fierce general Yang Zaixing, in fact, it also meant to untie the resentment he had formed because of the current situation.

In Yue Fei's eyes.

Shen Cong was the adopted son of Zhongshi, the minister who made the first contribution to the government's suppression of Zhao Kai, and an out-and-out minister of Conglong.

Right now, Shen Cong is the official official of Yanjing Road. If Yue Fei and Shen Cong get involved in something dirty, it will not be good for the battle situation.

In order to avoid the mutual restraint among the generals of the Song Dynasty, Yue Fei gave Shen Cong a big gift.

And when this big gift was sent out, it also suppressed Sun Yi, whom Yue Fei had never liked very much.

No way, Sun Yi actually disobeyed orders on the Taihang Mountain Road.

The officials have a good temper and completely forgot about it, but Yue Fei did not forget it!
Shen Cong also didn't forget this!

He saw the appearance of the official family at that time with his own eyes, and saw the lonely appearance of the two plates of five hundred guan rewards.

At the time when he was the most vigorous and gave up everything, the imperial driver personally marched on Hedong Road, pointing his sword at Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, Sun Yi refused to meet with him, and slapped the official at that time solidly.

Although the officials punished him with military sticks to settle the matter, Shen Congke deeply remembered the loneliness of the officials back then.

The officials wanted to promote and arranged for Sun Yi to be promoted, but Shen Cong and Yue Fei joined forces to disrupt the situation. While resolving their grievances, they also smoothly stood in the same camp.

Zhao Huan looked at his favorite Yue Fei with his left hand, and Shen Cong with his right hand who had been loyal to him since he arrived in Song Dynasty.

Then look at Sun Yi who listened to the tune but refused to listen to the announcement, and refused to meet with the court. This multiple-choice question is simply not too simple!
Therefore, Sun Yi's second officer, the position of the front army's second officer, just disappeared.

"Lieutenant Yang, officials often say that people often pay a high price for previous wrongdoings. This is the case with Sun Yi, let's encourage each other." Shen Cong said with a smile on his face.

Yang Zaixing nodded approvingly and said, "Sun Yi is just young, and his temper is too violent, there is nothing to do about it."

Shen Cong shook his head and said, "Youth is no excuse, Zhao Kai is already 24, and the courtiers still say he is a child."

"General Yue is only 25 years old this year, but he handles things carefully, like an old general. He thinks everything through very carefully."

Yang Zaixing nodded frantically, if you ask who in this world admires Yue Fei the most, it must be Yang Zaixing!
Yang Zaixing injured Yue Fei's younger brother, Yue Fan. Yue Fei saw him as a fierce general, so he only beat him with bruises all over his body, but never killed him.

Yue Fan didn't even arrange for promotion, so he was assigned as the second official!

In the past two years, Yang Zaixing was completely convinced by Yue Fei.

"It would be great if Brother Yue Fan could come to the Yanjing Army. At that time, I thought General Yue would arrange for Yue Fan to be a second officer in the Yanjing Army." Yang Zaixing said with a silly smile.

Shen Cong looked at Yang Zaixing's simple and honest appearance, shook his head and said with a smile: "Yue Fan has probably worked under General Yue's command all his life. Forget it, you don't understand these things. Learn hard."

There is a way of death among military generals, which is called the master of high meritorious service.

Is it really due to the great contribution that made the Lord feel uneasy?
However, most of the common people and the residence newspaper will attribute the credit of the generals to the emperor himself, and the high meritorious deeds himself is an excuse.

If the envoys are not enough, you will be named the county king, if the county king is not enough, you will be named the prince, and if the prince is not enough, you will have the privilege of not worshiping the name.As for the sixteen privileges, they should be sealed one by one.

In fact, how many people can climb to the step of the prince?
There is nothing to seal, the master of high merit?
When military generals are constantly promoted, they install their relatives, and there are quite a few people who can achieve the Tao by one person and ascend to heaven.

The ever-expanding family power of the generals made the emperor more and more jealous. Is this the virtue that a general should cultivate?

Especially this is Da Song.

Strictly speaking, Yue Fei and Yang Zaixing were enemies. Yang Zaixing beat Yue Fan seriously injured, and Yue Fei beat Yue Fan seriously injured Yang Zaixing.

If Yang Zaixing was promoted quickly, civil servants would say that Yue Fei was trying to gain fame.

If Yang Zaixing was slow to get promoted, Wen and Chen would say that Yue Fei suppressed dissidents.

Therefore, it was Yue Fei's helplessness to send Yang Zaixing to the Yanjing Army, especially the helplessness of being a general in Song Dynasty.

It can kill multiple birds with one stone, and without wasting Yang Zaixing's talent, it can also shut up civil servants.

Shen Cong suddenly thought of something, cheerfully refilled a glass of wine for Yang Zaixing, smiling all over his face.

"General Shen, what are you laughing at?" Yang Zaixing asked in confusion.

Shen Cong shook his head, did not explain, picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Drink this cup together, and congratulate Lieutenant Yang's new rank of Lieutenant! Da Song will fill in another general!"

He is laughing.

The game behind all this, Yue Fei's ingenious consideration, the officials seem to know nothing, and simply think that Yue Fei is not used to Sun Yi.

But that's good too, it's not good for the officials to see too much of these nasty things.

Putting all the pressure on the officials, what do you want these courtiers to do?
The civil servants of the Song Dynasty broke the emperor's heart. The generals of the Song Dynasty can no longer add chaos to the officials.

Shen Cong rubbed his knees vigorously. Although it was early summer, the sea breeze was still a bit chilly.

At the age of 16, he was sent to the marriage official camp by Zhong Shidao, and he began to learn how to kneel and kneel like Zhao Ji every day. He knelt for seven years, and his knees felt a bit old and cold.

Shen Cong suddenly remembered that on the night when the official family ascended the throne, he knelt in the snow and didn't let him get up when the Supreme Emperor left.

Now that the treatment of warriors is the highest in the entire Song Dynasty, what else can he be dissatisfied with?

"Come on, drink!" Shen Cong said with a very wanton smile.

When Zhao Huan received the military report, he was overjoyed. Now that Yan Zongbi went to smash Shen Cong's place, he originally planned to hold the Yanjing Army as the new army.

The result was good, he kicked on the iron plate and knocked off half of his leg.

King Zhao of the Kingdom of Jin, Wanyan Zongjie died.

The kneeling statue in front of Zhong Shaobao's grave +1.
"The big maid Lin Youyu went to Shuozhou and met Chen Xing. The son of the military supply guard has grown up now and can defend Shuozhou for me." Zhao Huan looked at Zhazi and smiled contentedly.

Chen Xing's father was the military detainee who fell on the snowfield where Wang Zhi rushed thousands of miles to attack Huanglong Mansion, and froze to death. He deeply remembered this man and his son.

Up to now, in Zhao Huan's Zhaoxun Pavilion, there is a portrait of a quartermaster who froze to death. He always remembers that these are the heroes of the Song Dynasty!

"What's the name of that big maid? Back in Datong Mansion, she still wanted to assassinate Yan Zonghan." Zhao Huan asked Zhao Ying.

"The surname is Wen, and the single name is Ying." Zhao Ying said with a cheerful smile. He had read the information of the servants, and he knew Lin Youyu and Wen Ying, the master and servant.

Zhao Ying suddenly frowned and said: "Chen Xing married a Khitan man as his wife, is it a bit inappropriate for the official family, it will affect his future achievements. Should I send a lobbyist to persuade him? His home is in Suizhong, which is the eastern foot of Yanshan Mountain."

Zhao Huan glanced at Zhao Ying and asked, "You are persuading, how are you going to persuade!"

Zhao Ying persuaded Zhao Mingcheng, it really worked!This is something Zhao Ying is very good at.

Do you want to advise?

Zhao Huan pondered for a long time, and said, "Isn't it a bit good for us to fight mandarin ducks like this?"

"But that Khitan girl has affected Chen Xing's future career." Zhao Yingwen said after drinking a cup of tea.

Zhao Huan suddenly remembered a sentence, everything has its two sides.

Misfortune comes, and blessings depend on it.Blessings come, disasters come!
The distinction between Hua and Yi is a big killer in Zhao Huan's hands, and he is not going to make any changes.

The distinction between Hua and Barbarians is an important spiritual pillar of the Central Plains Dynasty. A civilization pretends to be one of the important support points of the country. Only when he has a problem with his head will he change to the Discrimination between Hua and Barbarians.

Even the emperor Zhao Huan was also adapting to the times, and Chen Xing was no exception. He needed to find a Han wife.

As a Khitan servant, he cannot be a wife, only a concubine.

"As Chen Xing's meritorious deeds become more and more powerful, he will know it himself, and we don't need to correct him." Zhao Huan said with a smile.
