Dad, this seems to be the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 162 The Dust Settles
I inquired with Xue Juzheng. At present, the court has been discussing this matter because of him for several days, and the specific rewards and punishments for him have not been discussed yet. The reason is that Zhao Guangyi, Zhao Pu, Fan Wangwei, are all trying their best to help him Talking, even Zhao Guangyi said not only that he has no faults but also has great merits, but this is not the mainstream. At present, most people are more in favor of the idea of ​​offsetting merits and demerits, and extrajudicial grace.

Because he copied a policy theory from Su Shi, now the entire Confucianism is boiling. You must know that Su Shi’s level is among the best in the whole of China for 5000 years. In the cultural desert of the early Song Dynasty, the policy theory is simply God did it, especially in conjunction with Sun Yue’s feat of sacrificing his life for righteousness. It is no exaggeration to say that Sun Yue is now the idol of most scholars. Even if he is really dead, this strategy can still be famous in history .

Of course, although the matter has not yet been concluded, even a three-year-old child now knows that Sun Yue will not die.

Regarding his matter, although Zhao Kuangyin did not end in person, it can be said that the entire process of discussing the ceremony was completely under his control, and anyone with a little brain could see that Zhao Kuangyin wanted to protect him to death. Therefore, there was no one in the court to suggest Mingzheng punishment. In other words, his life must be saved this time, and with his fame, talent and age, as long as he can't die, he can eat with his eyes closed and wait for death. It is also a surefire future prime minister.

Sun Yue was naturally moved by this. He didn't expect Zhao Kuangyin to be so interesting. Of course, he could understand that this matter seemed to be the trend of the general trend and the people's will, but in essence it was Zhao Kuangyin's death protection for him, otherwise it would have been impossible. With such a big momentum.

At the moment, Sun Yue led Xue Juzheng around Langzhou several times, explaining the affairs of Langzhou clearly. During this period of time, Murong Yanzhao was doing the government affairs of Langzhou with his support. Xue Juzheng saw that he explained clearly I understand that the government order is also clear, and I can't help but praise him again and again. Sun Yue also took advantage of the situation to establish some friendship with this future boss.

Sun Yue also specially led Xue Juzheng to the Shimen area, and said: "Xue Xueshi, these days, the people in Hunan are praising me for being a Buddha of Wanjia, but I am ashamed. When I was in Yiyang, I ordered The massacre of civilians in Jiangbei, the innocent people who died in my hands, there are eight thousand if not ten thousand. Every time I think about this, I always find it difficult to sleep peacefully. I can’t help but feel ashamed. I keep thinking about doing something to compensate Hunan. people."

Xue Juzheng said: "Son, you did the right thing. This is war after all. Soldiers are weapons. If you don't kill those people, even Tanzhou will follow in chaos. It will be difficult to put down the rebellion at that time. There must be more, this is not your fault, you must not blame yourself, since you are on a job in the Privy Council, this kind of thing is always inevitable, as long as we have a clear conscience."

"However, I have a guilty conscience. If I don't do something, I will never be safe in this life. Master Xue, look, what is this? Saying that, Sun Yue directly took a small hoe and dug it up. After a while, a yellow clod was dug out."

"This is……"

"This is realgar mine. Look, from here, to here, and there, these more than 1000 miles are all realgar mine. This is the largest realgar mine in the world! It's a pity that such a good thing cannot be exchanged for money. , to subsidize the lives of Langzhou people."

"Regar? Oh, I see. This thing can be used to make realgar wine, but how much realgar does the realgar wine use? Is this thing worth money?"

"I don't know Mr. Xue. Although the most common uses of this thing are realgar wine and arsenic, the current gunpowder also needs this thing to produce. Didn't my father build a research base in Kaifeng? My father believes that although Gunpowder weapons are still only auxiliary on the battlefield, but sooner or later they will become the key to deciding the outcome of the battle. This gunpowder is made of other materials that are relatively easy to buy. Only this realgar is too expensive, too expensive. If you can let my father Set up a branch factory here to specialize in the improvement and production of gunpowder. When it is successfully developed in the future, it can be incorporated into the military commission's industry like cement. It can also make these realgars have a market and improve the lives of the people of Langzhou. Isn't it? It’s a good thing to have the best of both worlds? This is the only compensation I can give to the people of Langzhou, please, Mr. Xue, give me permission.”

With that said, Sun Yue bowed deeply to Xue Juzheng with a big gift.

Xue Juzheng hurriedly helped him up and said: "I can't do it, I can't do it. Although my young friend is not weak, my words and deeds make me ashamed. Don't worry, if your lord wants to do something here, I will fully support you."

"Thank you sir."

Shimen Realgar is the largest and best-quality realgar mining area in the world. In his previous life, he knew about this place while watching social news. It is said that this place is also one of the five most polluted areas in the world. Because of the rough mining development, dozens of nearby The city is full of cancer villages, and it has attracted the attention of people all over the world for a while.

And Sun Yue discovered this place by accident, so he took this matter to heart. Although this thing evaporates, it will be arsenic, and it will cause harm to people if it is not played well. But in the fifth generation with an average life expectancy of only 40 years, is cancer really more terrible than poverty? ?

Moreover, Sun Yue feels that if the mining area can strictly implement the safety management he set, and all miners wear hats, gloves and masks before working, cancer can actually be avoided.

Moreover, realgar can not only be used as gunpowder, it can also be used as a food preservative, and sulfuric acid, which is also made from this thing, but Sun Yue does not know how to do it, and Sun Chunming must be have no idea.

But what is the research base for?Isn't it just for research?As long as he is willing to spend money, Sun Yue believes that sooner or later this thing will be researched. When that day comes, the people of Langzhou can become the richest place in Song Dynasty by relying on this realgar mine.

At that time, the guilt in my heart should be solved.

Accompanied by the arrival of Xue Juzheng, Zhao Kuangyin's benevolence came along with him.Biao Zhou Baoquan is the general of Youqianniuwei, and saves punishment. He plunders all the lives in the Suohu-Nanxing camp, sends envoys to his family, and releases thousands of soldiers from Tanzhou to the peasants. All rebellions are innocent. The tea tax and salt and iron tax in Hunan were exempted, and the hearts of the people in Hunan were collected in one fell swoop.

Moreover, Zhao Kuangyin also did a particularly interesting thing. He personally went to the Temple of King Wucheng to see the famous generals painted in the two temples. Li withdrew, and from then on, Bai Qi was no longer among the famous generals.

This political signal is very interesting, and it is precisely because of this that although Li Chuyun has not been convicted of the crime, everyone knows the outcome.
