Dragon blood bodyguard of the beauty president

Chapter 2908
Li Yuanhao looked at Li Kui and Dai Zong, and asked them in a deep voice, "If we don't receive the call, how will our Xixia Kingdom survive this winter?"

Li Kui and Dai Zong lowered their heads, their minds turning sharply.

Li Yuanhao said, "We entered the customs just for show, and we don't necessarily have to fight Song Gongming. As long as Da Song agrees to their conditions, we will provide us with food for the winter of the Xixia Kingdom. It is not uncommon for us to take a trip to the customs with a large army. question."

Li Kui and Dai Zong looked at each other and shouted happily, "This is a good way!"

"That's right, we can work without any effort!"

Li Kui patted his head and suddenly realized.

Li Yuanhao said, "You should find someone to answer immediately and ask Da Song to provide us Xixia people with 100 million tons of food for the winter. If the food arrives, we will send troops immediately."

"Order!"

Li Kui and Dai Zong immediately went down to deal with the matter, taking this opportunity to blackmail Song Ting severely.

After receiving the reply from the Xixia Kingdom, the Privy Council of the Great Song Dynasty felt dizzy again.

Tong Guan threw the military newspaper on the table and cursed, "Bandits, a group of robbers. They really dare to open their mouths for 100 million tons of grain. My Dasong grain depot only has a year's worth of grain. They are like lions who open their mouths deliberately. They want to use this opportunity to blackmail us."

Gao Lian sat on the sidelines and said, "Then should we die or not?"

Tong Guan snapped at him and said, "What should we do? Where do we find food for them? More than a dozen state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River are occupied by Fangla, and all the rice grain roads there are cut off. There are bandits everywhere in the Song Dynasty. Bandits are being suppressed everywhere, where is there any surplus food?"

Gao Qiu said softly, "But if they don't give it to them, they will find an excuse, saying that they don't have military rations and refuse to send troops, so we can't do anything about them?"

Tong Guan sat down, his face darkened, and said, "All the granaries in the world are in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that the south of the Yangtze River is occupied, the household department is starting to be stretched. At this time, the rebels in Qilu and Shandong are making so much trouble again. Our Song Dynasty is now It’s just a dilapidated house with air leaks everywhere. When we give food to Xixia, we have to tear down the paper from the west window to mend the east window. If this continues, this dilapidated house will collapse sooner or later!”

Gao Qiu looked around vigilantly, went to close the door, and reminded Tong Guan, "Privy envoy, be careful in your words and deeds!"

He poured tea for Tong Guan and comforted Tong Guan, "The current situation is very difficult, but we have to solve the immediate matter first.

Although Fang La now proclaims himself emperor and separates himself from one side, he is making trouble on the south bank of the river after all.With the great river and natural danger blocking him, he will not be able to make trouble in the capital for a while.

And I heard that Taiwei Su was called to personally conquer Jiangnan this time, and now he has set off to sit in Jiangnan.It's not that our Jiangnan has lost all fronts, and the outcome is still two things.

But Qilu and Shandong are the gateways to our capital.If Song Gongming went south, he could easily reach the capital directly.At that time, let alone the capital, if there is any trouble, the two of us will also be killed.

Therefore, the most urgent task at the moment is to find a way to solve Song Gongming and his party first.As for the issue of food and grass, that is something that the Ministry of Finance should consider, and it has nothing to do with us! "

"Why do you pour cold water on me every time I worry about the country and the people?"

Tong Guan gave Gao Qiu a blank look, took a sip of tea angrily, and said to Gao Qiu, "Then, as you said, hand over this booklet to Your Majesty. Don't say anything else, just give this hot potato to His Majesty." Just hand it over to the Ministry of Accounts."

Gao Qiu laughed, "The privy envoy is wise!"

He took the booklet and went to the side room to have it presented to Huizong right away.

The opinion of the Privy Council is written below, "Consent".

After Huizong read it, he swiped his pen and added the word "Zhun" on it, asking the Ministry of Accounts to handle it.

Hubu Shangshu vomited blood when he received this military newspaper. He was a little dizzy when he saw the 100 million tons of grain and grass on it.

This year, there are bandits all over the Song Dynasty, and the household department is stretched short of money and food, and has been running short.

Let alone 100 million tons of grain and grass, even [-] tons he would not be able to produce.

He immediately asked someone to prepare a sedan chair, went to Cai Jing's mansion, and asked the Prime Minister for advice.

It was freezing cold outside, but Cai Jing's mansion was very warm.

A magic circle is used everywhere for heating, but some spirit stones need to be consumed.

This method is used in all the big officials in the capital.

The magic circle absorbs the fire elemental force, and gathers the fire elemental force scattered between the heaven and the earth to form a place where fire gathers.

After Hubu Shangshu saw Cai Jing, he cupped his hands and bowed first, then wiped the hot sweat from his head, and told Cai Jing the content of the military newspaper.

Cai Jing was fiddling with the newly found cricket, and said without any ups and downs, "Since it is Shengming, then follow your Majesty's wishes!"

The Minister of the Household Department wondered, "But this year the national treasury is not making ends meet, how can we get so much food and grass!"

Cai Jing said impatiently, "The household department has no money, so you can think of a way! If you have no way, then let someone who has a way come up. Now I come to this old man for any trivial matter, how can this old man give you money?"

"This, this?"

Hubu Shangshu stuttered, not knowing what to say.

Cai Jing waved his hand to let him back down.

After he left, he stood at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion feeling depressed for a long time, and couldn't help but vomit softly in the innermost part, "Your Cai Xiangye is right, I can't do this Minister of the Ministry of Households, let someone who is capable do it!"

After the Shangshu went back, he immediately gave Huizong a seal, saying that he was old, dim-sighted and suffering from illnesses, so it was really difficult for him to take on the big responsibility, so he should let Huizong choose another virtuous person to take over the household department.

After Hui Zong saw the paper, he didn't hold anything back, and directly approved the word "Zheng" on it.

He handed over the new candidates for the household department to Cai Jing for recommendation.

When Cai Jing saw it, he didn't expect the Minister of the Household Department to be so staunch, and he really didn't do it if he said he wouldn't do it.

After thinking about it, he and Huizong recommended Zhu Xi.

This is a villain who has no bottom line. At the beginning, he flattered Huizong, searched for strange stones everywhere in Jiangnan, and made Jiangnan people resentful. In the end, he directly turned against Fang La.

Cai Jingdu couldn't see it, so he wrote a letter asking Huizong to depose him.

He is now unemployed in Beijing, and he has to let this wolfhound handle such a tricky matter.

After Cai Jing's excerpt was uploaded, Huizong quickly read it.

In Huizong's heart, it was Zhu Xi who was actually thinking about it.

Although this person was ruthless and unprincipled, he won Huizong's favor, much better than those Qingliu officials in Huizong's eyes.

As soon as Zhu Xi received the emperor's order, he immediately entered the palace to meet Huizong.

He flattered and flattered for a while, and promised Huizong that he would never let down the emperor's orders.

After leaving the palace, he paid a non-stop visit to Cai Jing again.

He knew that Cai Jing had put in a lot of effort for this promotion and reinstatement.

A lot of good gifts are naturally indispensable, and there are more than a dozen big boxes alone.

Cai Jing was very satisfied with his attitude, and encouraged him, "Your Majesty is wise and merciful, and you still have us veterans in your heart. Since you have been promoted by the Holy Grace, you should not slack off. You must take care of the matter in front of you." Get things done."

Zhu Yu assured him, "Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, I know about this matter. It's just 100 million tons of grain and grass, and I already have a good plan in my heart. After this year, I will be able to handle this job for Mr. Xiang and the emperor." .”

His tone is sure, as if everything is under control.

Cai Jing's eyelids sank, and he said with a deep smile, "Then I wish Mr. Shang Shu success soon!"
