Three Kingdoms video king: The opening inventory of the top ten fighters!

Chapter 199

In June of the sixth year of Xiande, Chai Rong passed away, and Emperor Gong of Zhou, Chai Zongxun, came to the throne. In July of that year, Zhao Kuangyin was transferred to the Jiedu envoy of the German army, and Zhao Pu was promoted to the secretary of Jiedu.

On New Year's Day in the seventh year of Xiande, it was said that Khitan colluded with the Northern Han Dynasty to invade. Prime Minister Fan Zhi hastily sent Zhao Kuangyin to lead the army to the north. So it doesn't work, get Zhao Kuangyin drunk, and then add an apricot-yellow dragon robe to his body.Launched the Chenqiao Mutiny.

In the face of the fait accompli, Zhao Kuangyin took over the "Zen Position" book from Chai Zongxun and established the Song Dynasty, which was Song Taizu.

Song Taizu ascended the throne, rewarded meritorious deeds, and continued to use Zhou Zaizhi Fan Zhi, Wang Pu and Wei Renpu as prime ministers to maintain the hearts of the old officials.

Shi Shouxin, Gao Huaide, etc. were promoted to important positions, and Zhao Pu assisted him with meritorious service.

The domestic situation that Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin faced after he replaced the Zhou Dynasty was still the situation in which military officials exercised power since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

In the Later Zhou Dynasty, Li Jun, the envoy of the Yicheng Army Jiedu, was unwilling to be a subordinate, and refused the high-ranking official conferred by the new emperor who was concurrently with the Zhongshuling. In April of the first year of Jianlong, he colluded with Liu Jun of the Northern Han Dynasty to rebel against the Song Dynasty.

Seeing that the situation was worrying, Zhao Pu urged Taizu to go on a personal expedition and go with him. Song Taizu obeyed his proposal and ordered Zhao Pu to stay in the capital. Zhao Pu asked to go with the army.

Song Taizu smiled and said, "Are you capable of fighting?" In June, Shi Shouxin and Gao Huaide captured Baoze Prefecture, and Li Yun burned himself to death.

Li Chongjin, nephew of Zhou Taizu Guo Wei and Huainan Jiedu envoy stationed in Yangzhou, has become a confidant of the Song court.

After Li sent Zhai Shou to unite with the Northern Han Dynasty, and was captured halfway and used by Song Taizu, the Song court decided to give Li Iron Coupons to stabilize his heart, and ordered him to move to Qingzhou so that he could be restrained nearby.

Li Chongjin detained the envoys of the Song Dynasty, so he rebelled against the Song Dynasty in July. Song Taizu sent Shi Shouxin and Wang Shenqi to conquer, but the delay was not overcome.

Zhao Pu persuaded Taizu to go on his own because he was worried about the soldiers of the former Zhou Dynasty attacking the nobles of the Later Zhou Dynasty. In November, he conquered Yangzhou and conquered it.

The suppression of Erli's rebellion, in the sense of offering advice and conquering himself, Zhao Pu made remarkable contributions, so he moved to the post of Minister of the Ministry of War and Deputy Envoy of the Privy Council.

At the end of the first year of Jianlong, one day after Song Taizu put down Li Yun and Li Chongjin's rebellion, he summoned Zhao Pu and asked:

"Why since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the emperors have changed eight surnames and twelve emperors for decades, and the battles have been endless? I want to wipe out the soldiers of the world from now on, and build a long-term plan for the country. Is there any good way?"

Zhao Pu is proficient in governance, and he has considered these issues for a long time. Hearing Song Taizu's question, he said:
"The crux of this problem is that the power of the feudal town is too heavy, the monarch is weak and the ministers are strong, and there is no ingenious way to govern. As long as you take away its power, control its money and grain, and recruit its elite soldiers, the world will naturally be stable."

Before Zhao Pu finished speaking, Song Taizu said repeatedly: "You don't need to say any more, I understand everything."

So a plan to rebuild the centralized autocratic system was conceived and gradually put into practice.

In terms of centralization in the Northern Song Dynasty, the most important thing was military power, and it was also the first problem to be solved.

In the second year of Jianlong, in view of the fact that the situation was under control at that time, Song Taizu began to take some measures one after another. He dismissed Murong Yanzhao as the Jiedu envoy of the Zhenning Army in front of the palace, and dismissed Han Lingkun, the commander of the guards and troops. Chengde Jiedushi.

Because the inspection in front of the hall was the position that Song Taizu Huang Paojia had held before him, it was no longer set up. Shi Shouxin succeeded Han Lingkun as the commander of the guard Ma Bujun.

At first Song Taizu Yishi Shouxin and others were his old friends, and he didn't mind, so Zhao Pu said to him several times:
"I don't worry that they will betray His Majesty, but if their subordinates are greedy for wealth and honor, if there are evildoers supporting them, can they be independent?"

These words actually reminded Song Taizu to remember the incident of the Chenqiao Mutiny and avoid similar incidents from happening again. Sure enough, Song Taizu took measures to lift the military power of the senior generals of the Forbidden Army.

On the evening of the ninth day of July in the second year of Jianlong, Song Taizu left Shi Shouxin and other generals to narrate the brotherhood.

A little drunk, he confided to the generals the hardships of being an emperor, he can't rest at night, and preventing accidents is not as good as your ministers' peace of mind.

When Shi Shouxin and others expressed their allegiance to the death, they said, what if your subordinates are only a few for the sake of wealth and honor?

It is also said that the most important thing in life is to accumulate more money, farms and houses, to establish immovable property for children and grandchildren, and to buy more singing girls and beautiful women to drink and have fun all day long.

I became in-laws with you, so we don't have mutual suspicion, isn't it great?Everyone understood the meaning of these words.

So, the next day, one after another resigned from the military, handed over their military power, and went to the local area to serve as Jiedu envoys. Naturally, Zhao Pu's contributions in offering advice cannot be erased.

In the third year of Jianlong, Jin Zhaopu was the Privy Envoy, the school inspector and the Taibao.

"A glass of wine to release military power" is only the first step in solving military power. The hidden dangers of Fangzhen's power control since the mid-Tang Dynasty and the problem of power control of the new Forbidden Army are still Zhao Kuangyin's top priority.

The key is to infiltrate the spirit of Zhao Pu's twelve-character policy and strategy into the establishment of court and local officials, and change the independence of the power structure so that it must operate dependent on the monarchy.

Under Zhao Pu's counselor, this set of mutually restrictive functions and powers system was finally formulated. This is the central government setting up a deputy minister, a privy envoy, a deputy, and three ministers to divide the power of the prime minister and achieve the effect of mutual restraint.

The privy envoys are directly under the command of the emperor, while the horse guards and infantry commanders of the imperial guards and the front of the palace are all in charge of training and guarding.

In the first year of Qiande, Zhao Pumou was used to dismiss Wang Yanchao and other local envoys and gradually cut down the power of dozens of kings with different surnames, and arranged for other posts, and replaced military posts with civil servants, so the military official Fangzhen lost the basis for controlling power.

On the other hand, the bravery of the box soldiers and the recruitment of elite and strong men in famine years were the Imperial Army, so all the elite soldiers in the world were under the command of the Privy Council.

Although there are no elite soldiers in the local area, the combination of local troops can still restrain the imperial army. This has formed a system of strong stems and weak branches, and internal and external constraints.

At the local level, literati Ren Zhizhou and deputy general judges are administrative officials, and important documents must be countersigned to be valid.

The general judge was the eyes and ears of the emperor's inspectors and governors. In the early Song Dynasty, the prefecture set up a regiment training envoy, which was originally a idle job.

Controlling its money and food refers to a method to limit the financial power of the Jiedushi, stipulating that most of the local money and food should be sent to the central government, and set up a transfer envoy to take charge of the work.

During the Xining reform, the fiscal and taxation increased, and the local treasury was also full. At this time, the problem of Jiedushi had been solved.

In the second year of Qiande, Song Taizu decided to deploy the central government and the local government. When the time was right, he stopped using Fan Zhi, Wang Pu and Wei Renpu from the later Zhou Dynasty.

Zhongshu Province did not have a prime minister to sign the edict. Zhao Pu used this as an excuse to go to Song Taizu. Song Taizu said: "You just submit the edict, can I sign it for you?"

Zhao Pu said: "This is the responsibility of officials in relevant departments, not the emperor's business."
