Take the system back to the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 100 Lao Cai's Thoughts
Zhao Cheng was slightly taken aback, "Is the news about Mr. Zhizhou confirmed?"

Cai You frowned, "Not sure but basically the same. The root cause is Qin Ming's stick!"

I don’t know why, aren’t the two of them in the honeymoon period?Cai You suddenly used words so seriously?

Cai You continued, "Qin Ming is self-willed and puts gold on his face. The Huangbianzhai incident is obviously incompetent, but he said that the gangsters are too cunning. The biggest problem is that in addition to talking about these bastards for this state, he also played for the Ministry of War. This complicates the current problem, so Benzhou concluded that it will be a matter of time before the Wuwei army enters Chizhou."

It is true that Qin Ming’s leader is Cai You, but the complication is that the Xiang Army in this period is the government series (Zhongshu Menxia), not the Privy Council (Military 1st Committee) series.

The sequelae of Zhao Tingzhi and Cai Jing's fight have caused the Minister of the Ministry of War to be a display, and Zhang Kegong, the minister of the Ministry of War, is the most anti-Cai family.

This represents the impulsive Qin Ming reporting to Zhang Kegong.This is possible, the military order is indeed in the hands of Cai You, but in terms of business, the general manager of the Chizhou Xiang Army can of course report to Zhang Kegong of the Ministry of War.

It's politically awkward.It's a pity that Cai You has nothing to do with Qin Ming at this time. Since Hongshan Village was killed by Wang Xiu, the situation in Chizhou has been on the verge of breaking out. General Qin Ming, who is known as a brave man who is not worthy of all men, has a tendency to be uncontrollable. As a scholar, Cai You doesn't care From any angle, he dare not touch Qin Ming at this time.

Otherwise, from Cai You's point of view, he might think that both Zhoucheng and himself are in danger!
In this way, Zhao Cheng can be sure that Qin Ming is abolished.

His impulsiveness and ignorance have harmed him, if he thinks that he can hug the thigh of Zhang Kegong, the servant of the Ministry of War, he is very wrong.Zhang Kegong will only be more conservative than Cai You in terms of the rotten Confucian thinking of fire prevention, theft and military generals.

Now it is nothing more than political strife and mutual use. Qin Ming dares to participate in this kind of affairs as a temporary worker general. Playing with the famous traitor Cai You like this.

This... Zhao Cheng can only mourn General Qin in silence. After Chizhou's difficulties are over and Cai You doesn't need to rely on him, Qin Ming's big troubles will definitely come.It's hard to talk about the plots in the Water Margin, but it's really possible.

Zhao Cheng thought with a strange expression. Cai You suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at Zhao Cheng and asked, "This state has been paying attention to you for a long time, serving in the river, rescuing Zhang Ji and Li Jianyou from the village, political strategy, the fire of "Lanruo Temple", the county government affairs, including identifying the thieves in Huangbian Village and rescuing the little girl."

After a pause, he said: "These piles are enough to prove that you are not only talented and thoughtful, but what is more valuable is that you are especially effective in execution compared to others. This state rarely values ​​relying on one person, and rarely listens to others. Opinions, but now I want to ask you, do you have any opinions on these matters?"

Zhao Cheng also became embarrassed.

Regarding this kind of matter, Zhao Cheng doesn't want to be the center of attention again.That's good, but it also has some invisible troubles.

It was too short a time since I came to the Northern Song Dynasty. To put it bluntly, it was only a little over a month. Now Cai You really seems to be too showy, and he has done so many eye-catching things without realizing it.

The one who got the most limelight was defeating Dong Jianwu with a famous "Yi Yang Finger", which was under the watchful eyes of everyone.To a certain extent, it was praised as "brave" by the gossip-loving Song people.This may be the reason why Cai You asked Zhao Cheng about banditry when he found out that Qin Ming was a big stick and blind.

This Nima is really not very good. Try not to lose your status as a literati in the Northern Song Dynasty.Fortunately, Zhao Cheng, who is capable of writing and martial arts, is not a special case, such as Han Qi and Fu Bi, especially Zhang Shuye, who was able to compete with nomadic Liao generals when he was an envoy to the Liao Kingdom. Zhao Cheng's Yiyang finger spotlight is not so strong.

Seeing that he was hesitating strangely, Cai You twisted his head and said, "Actually, you don't have to think too much about it. If you have any unspeakable secrets, you can tell Benzhou directly. It won't be your fault. Actually, about your brave rescue of Li Jianyou and Zhang Ji. , Honshu is always wondering that the cottage has not been suppressed, so is your process too simple?"

This is something that has been inconvenient to talk to him. Unexpectedly, he noticed it and mentioned it on his own initiative, so Zhao Cheng didn't dare to be careless, "Mr. , it was Bai Chenxiang who was in charge of the family, and his hostility was not serious. And when he killed the bandit leader Wang Ying, the students were kind to Bai Chenxiang. "

Cai You touched her chin and muttered to herself, "No wonder..."

He also said: "Since this is the case, there is no need to worry about it. It is a credit for not adding chaos. The cottage is also divided into moderate and non-moderate. This does not conflict with the policy of my father, Mr. Cai. On the contrary, it can make the Bai Chenxiang Department a special period With the help of the government, participating in stabilizing the situation in Chizhou is a meritorious service. In the future, the state will come forward, and it will not be difficult to recommend a background for Bai Chenxiang."

Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhizhou."

Cai You turned and said, "But you still didn't say it. Now that Wangxiu's village is growing rapidly and becoming rampant, but my government is unable to control it, how should we deal with it? When there are many cottages, they can still check and balance each other. Wang Xiu continues to grow, but we can't suppress it, and it is a foregone conclusion that the Wuwei army will enter Chizhou."

"This not only shows that I, Cai You, can't stabilize the situation, but it is more likely that my father's prestige when he comes back to power will be hit. In addition, once the Wuwei Army enters Chizhou, it represents the official attitude: the bandits are about to be suppressed. This will definitely cause the Shanzhai to go to extremes in advance. Not to mention whether we can win or not, if the flames of war are raging under my rule, and the taxation, money, and people's livelihood are greatly affected, then it will be my fault in the first place. What do you think?"

Cai You finally said: "You can speak freely about these things, and this state will tolerate it if you say it wrong."

Zhao Cheng then clasped his fists and said: "After the Hongshan Village incident was reported by Qin Ming, it has basically become a landmark event. The prestige of the old Prime Minister Cai was limited in the early stage of his comeback, and the Privy Council Prime Minister Zhang Kangguo was in a state of uncertainty. Under this situation The students are sure that the Wuwei Army's march into Chizhou is inevitable and unstoppable."

Cai You frowned, but he was helpless. From a political point of view, he also knew that this was inevitable. On the surface, Zhang Kangguo seemed to belong to his father, but he was really an old fox.In a good political situation, this kind of person can increase his momentum and be clever and easy to use, but at a critical moment, this kind of person is absolutely unreliable.

Sighing, Cai You nodded slightly, indicating to continue.

Zhao Cheng said again: "Since you can't control it, then leave him alone. Let him come. Although it is a foreign army, after entering Chizhou, as long as you still know the state, the law of whether to send troops is still in the hands of your husband."

Cai You twirled his beard and said, "That's the reason. I'm afraid they will be instigated by others like Qin Ming to make trouble for this state secretly. And the biggest hidden danger is that once the inactive army enters Chizhou, even if the state does not move, it will destroy the balance. For example, Wang Xiu must think that the inaction army is a threat, and if he jumps over the wall and takes risks, he may rebel in advance and attack counties or even state cities, which will inevitably lead to disaster. As long as it happens, it must be the failure of the state's governance! How can I put this face on my Cai family? "
