Since ancient times, talented people have been born in the Red Chamber

Chapter 285 Pulling up confidantes and walking on the road of rebellion against Beiliao (two more in one)

Chapter 283

It's a pity that it's winter. Even if Wang Yang can't wait to demolish all those old houses on the day he gets the title deed, he just picks his fingers and slowly waits for the spring to come. Conceive what kind of courtyard should be designed inside.

Designer Wang Da, who has visited countless essences of ancient Chinese gardens and collected the culmination of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign architectural art styles, naturally can't build a tube-shaped building that is too rough to live in.

Instead, it adopts a classical architectural model that conforms to the aesthetic design concept of Chinese national characteristics.However, the design work is by no means easy. The important thing is that although Wang Yang has visited and appreciated countless famous garden buildings in later generations, the problem is that they are all hundreds of acres of land.

Therefore, Wang Yang can only display his design concepts and talents within a limited space, and this is the place where he is the most exquisite design master.

However, Wang Yang conceived in his mind with great interest for more than half an hour, and finally had a glimmer of inspiration. When he picked up the charcoal pen and was about to drop it on the rice paper, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door. The dead eunuch appeared outside the door as if he was dead.

"I asked you, old boy, why are you here?" Even if Wang Yang was not in a beautiful mood, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction when he saw Liang Shicheng with a flattering smile on his face, and put down the charcoal pen in his hand helplessly.

"Sir, my Highness has held a family banquet in the palace, and I would like to invite you to come over..." After Liang Shicheng laughed dryly, he seemed to see that there was no one outside the house, so he came closer and lowered his voice. "Your Majesty is here too, but I'm not in a good mood..."

Uncle Wang looked at Liang Shicheng with a disdainful expression on his face, what the hell has happened to him?The little blue pill that can make men happy?When you are unhappy, think of yourself. "Let's be honest, did your Highness ask me to drink there?"

"No, His Majesty invited me... I would like to invite you over to have a chat." Liang Shicheng hurriedly declared after a haha.

"Okay, alas, please watch over that teacher, don't let anyone mess it up, I'll come back as soon as I go." Wang Yang only put down the charcoal pen, and after a few instructions to Master Li, he left. He walked away with Liang Shicheng at a fast pace.

#####
Zhao Xu's mood was indeed not high, but after seeing Wang Yang, he still showed a brighter smile. "Mr. came just in time, sit down quickly, just now I was thinking about when Mr. will arrive, and Mr. has arrived."

After the chatter, Wang Yang sat down, drained a glass of fine wine first, and then ate a delicious meal. After three rounds of fine wine, the gossip from the beginning finally reached the point where Zhao Xu was affected. This matter of emotion comes up.

It turned out that it was the end of the year, and Daliao sent envoys to ask for next year's "year-old coins", and the small country of Xixia also rushed over, hoping that Song Dynasty would not forget the wealth bestowed on Xixia every year, It made the emperor feel unhappy.

"In the first year of Jingde, although our Great Song Dynasty defeated the Northern Liao Dynasty, considering the lack of national strength, we had to conclude the "Chanyuan Alliance" with the defeated general, agreeing to donate 10 taels of Liao silver and 20 silk every year. horse, and when it came to Renzong...

... At the end of Xia Dynasty, they were unable to attack our Great Song Dynasty, and suffered heavy casualties, so they proclaimed their ministers to our court. Our court gave 13 bolts of Xixia silk, 5 taels of silver, and 20 catties of tea every year. Liao added [-] silver and [-] bolts of silk, which were changed to Na..."

Wang Yang sipped his wine and acted like a listener with Zhao Ji, listening to the emperor who liked to complain about the past disputes between the Song Dynasty and the surrounding countries.

However, complaints belong to complaints, but at least the emperor of the Song Dynasty did not cynically think that there was something wrong with the actions of the previous emperors or his ancestors.

"...But after decades of development, our Great Song Dynasty has gradually regained its vitality. Now our Great Song Dynasty has millions of soldiers, but we still have to continue to spend a lot of money in exchange for peace. It really makes me feel very..." Speaking of this, Zhao Xu, who was in a very unhappy mood, drained the wine in his glass in one gulp.

"Your Majesty's mood, in fact, my younger brother also understands very well, but if it weren't for these coins and accepting coins, how could my Song Dynasty have been peaceful for decades?" Zhao Ji couldn't help but persuaded in a low voice.

"I also know this truth, but look at the current Daliao, the political system is corrupt, and the treacherous ministers are in charge of the country, which makes the Northern Liao complain. Isn't this the best time for me, the Song Dynasty, to seize the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures again? But in the eyes of the empress dowager and those ministers, they only want to continue to spend a lot of money and continue to be peaceful..."

Wang Yang listened to Zhao Xu's complaints, and sure enough, this emperor of Song Dynasty was also a very angry young man.Very good, I like it, at least young people should forge ahead.

However, the wish of the emperor of Song Dynasty is beautiful, but the reality is skinny. At least he really wants to raise troops to attack the Daliao. If he is a little careless, it will hurt the Song Dynasty.

Another problem is that nowadays, the ruling and opposition parties in the Great Song Dynasty have a general awareness, as if the recovery of Yanyun Shizhou was a dream several generations ago, and it has little to do with them.

What they want more is to manage their own one-acre three-point land, um, fight for power, win profits, earn more votes, and earn more money. .

This is why since Emperor Renzong, the emperors of the Song Dynasty have always hoped to reform, that is, they are eager to break the political structure that has gradually formed since the founding of the Song Dynasty and is not prepared for danger, and the Song Dynasty is becoming more and more internally corrupt.

Who is Wang Yang? To put it bluntly, he is a passionate Chinese nationalist. To put it bluntly, this guy is an angry youth, and he is a particularly angry youth.

At the beginning, he was able to maintain his rationality, listening to the emperor of the Song Dynasty complaining there, but after hearing it, the angry youth of Wang Da felt more and more that the emperor of the Song Dynasty was really a confidant.

Wang Yang, who originally just wanted to come here to be an audience or an emotional trash can, couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty is right, but has your Majesty ever thought that if you want to take the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, you can only do it slowly. It’s been a long time since singing and dancing have brought peace…”

Sure enough, when Wang Yang saw the impulsive young emperor's expression instantly collapsed, it seemed that the last thing he liked to hear was such old-fashioned words.

"However, to deal with Beiliao, we can't see that we can only use war." Wang Yang's smile is so gentle, and his expression and tone are so calm, but it is the kind of strong emotion that overflows from his words. The taste of conspiracy made Zhao Xu and Zhao Ji stunned.

"Sir, why did you say that? Could it be that you already have a plan to deal with Beiliao here?" Zhao Ji, the ecstatic little prince, couldn't wait to ask.

And Zhao Xu beside him was also staring at Wang Yang, his face full of anticipation.

"...Wang has some ideas, but these ideas are not yet fully mature. However, to deal with the Northern Liao Dynasty, there are actually three methods: military, political, and economic." Wang Yang never thought that Zhao Ji would actually He would ask such a stupid question. He suddenly received the news and came here to have a drink. Why the hell did it turn into discussing national affairs.

"The military, presumably refers to the large army's suppression of the border and the attack of the city? Then what kind of means is this political and economic?" Zhao Xu couldn't help but become more interested, especially what Wang Yang said, let him Feel quite fresh.

"Your Majesty should know about Su Yi and Zhang Qin during the Warring States Period? He Zong Lian Heng, and during the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Shun and Liu Kangcao..."

Naturally, Wang Yang's eloquence is not fake, and the examples he cited are all famous historical events in history, and the occurrence of these events is all political means.

And Wang Yang not only interpreted the political means of those major events in history one by one in an easy-to-understand way, but also combined politics and military to explain.

Because politics and military are originally a pair of interdependent twins, the size of military power is closely related to the size of political voice. Just as Emperor Taizu of New China once said such a wise saying: The barrel of a gun This is the principle behind the emergence of political power. Only by grasping the military initiative can we grasp the political initiative.

#####
Following Wang Yang's eloquence, Zhao Ji, a young man, had a look of ignorance, but it was not in the ears of Emperor Song, who had been squatting on the court hall every day as a mascot since he was a child. same.

After all, even if it is Zhao Xu who can't hold power yet, the problem is that he has been the mascot for so many years. As the saying goes, he has never eaten pork. After watching pigs run for so many years, he knows what it is anyway.

What's more, Wang Yang's explanations are not like those old scholars who like to babble and confuse people to show their unfathomable cultural level.

Wang Yang, on the other hand, used plain and simple language to explain to Zhao Xu the close connection between politics and the military, as well as the complementarity between the two, through actual cases.

It really made Zhao Xu's spirit shine when he heard it, and his eyebrows were delighted.Hearing the highlights, Zhao Xu was even able to insert a sentence or two and comment on it.

"Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. Today, I have to listen to Mr.'s opinions. Only then do I know that the ancients are true. As Mr. said, military is an extension of political means. However, between the Great Song Dynasty and the Northern Liao Dynasty , can we also use political means to weaken the opponent?"

"Naturally." Wang Yang wiped the froth from his mouth and nodded with certainty. "Your Majesty must also know that Yelu Hongji, the emperor of the Northern Liao Dynasty, is a fool. He is indisputable about his loyalty and treachery. He only knows how to indulge in wine and sex, play and hunt, and neglect state affairs. All the affairs of the Daliao Dynasty are now entrusted to Yeluyi. Xin alone..."

"But Yelu Yixin is the Grand Master of Beiliao after all, and he has nothing to do with my Great Song Dynasty. How could he be willing to follow my Great Song's wishes?" Although he heard all the wonderful things, Zhao Xu still had some sense. of.

"Of course he won't obey, because the current emperor of Liao still trusts him a lot, but your majesty, have you forgotten that the queen of the current emperor of Liao and even the crown prince died at the hands of who?"

"I have also heard some rumors about this matter. It is said that the grand master of Beiliao secretly did it... Such rumors can't be true?" Zhao Xu replied with a disapproving smile.

Reluctantly, Wang Yang directly clarified his words. "What kind of Beiliao does Your Majesty think is the best for the Great Song Dynasty? Is it the Beiliao that unites as one? Or the Beiliao that is internally unstable, intriguing, and the monarchs and ministers are suspicious?"

"Of course...of course it's internal instability. Beiliao, where the monarchs and ministers doubt, is the best for my Song Dynasty." After staring at Wang Yang for a long time, Zhao Xu finally came to his senses.

Wang Yang's words really made Zhao Xu feel a little different. In other words, his words made Zhao Xu understand that in addition to military means, political means can really be used to make North Korea The Liao Dynasty Hall was shaken, and if it was handled well, it might be possible for Song Dynasty to take advantage of the opportunity to gain benefits.

A picture had already appeared in Zhao Xu's head. There was a distrust between Yelu Yixin and Na Yelu Hongji, which made the political situation in Beiliao become unstable.

And Yelu Yixin will definitely not be arrested without a fight, and will definitely pull a group of confidants to go farther and farther on the road of betraying Yelu Hongji, the emperor of the Northern Liao Dynasty.

"That's great, it's really great... What Mr. said today has really benefited me a lot. If it can be done well, it may very likely cause the entire Beiliao to fall into chaos. At that time, I will take profits from the Great Song Dynasty, and even..."

Zhao Xu stood up, rubbed his hands, and was so excited that he walked around the room. At this moment, he was so excited that he couldn't restrain himself.I feel more and more that Wang Yang, whose voice is already a little hoarse, is really a good talent and beautiful jade bestowed by God to Da Song.

He is also an immortal minister sent to him by his father’s spirit in heaven.This made Zhao Xu more and more eager to take charge as soon as possible.However, Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he thought of the way the Queen Mother still treated him as an immature brat.

#####
Seeing Zhao Xu standing there with an expression of sadness and joy, melancholy and anger, how could Wang Yang not understand what this young mascot emperor was thinking.

"Actually, Your Majesty does not need to be in a hurry. Food needs to be eaten one bite at a time, and things need to be done step by step. In fact, the most important thing for Your Majesty now is not to rush to think about how to take charge of the government, but to think about what to do after you take charge of the government." Act..."

Seeing that Zhao Xu still didn't understand, Wang Yang secretly rolled his eyes and couldn't help reminding him in a low voice. "Your Majesty, although the Empress Dowager is still in charge of politics, she is getting old after all, but you are growing up, Your Majesty..."

At this time, Zhao Xu finally came to his senses. Yes, the Empress Dowager was already almost sixty. In this era, she was definitely considered to have a long life.

Even if she is greedy for power, she can still listen to politics for a few years.As for myself, I haven't even got married yet, and I still have decades of good times waiting for me. After I take charge of the government, I can naturally show my strengths.

"That's right, thank you for reminding me, sir, what I need to consider is how to govern the country and society of the Song Dynasty after the pro-government..." Zhao Xu was full of confidence and clenched his fists, as if he had been fooled by Wang Yang After that, it has been restored to life.
