On July [-]th, a Jiangdong general report was placed on Zhao Ning's imperial case, which was written by Zong Ze himself.

On the morning of July [-]th, Zhao Ning had a gloomy face. Before anyone could speak, he spoke first.

His voice was extremely angry: "I have exempted the tax in the south! But there are people in the southeast who rebelled! My benevolence is so worthless! Do you want to ask me if the sword in my hand is sharp?"

Chapter 538 Give Qin Hui a New Mission (Part [-])

"The imperial court is sympathetic to the difficulties of the people's livelihood and respects public opinion. I also listen to the opinions of many parties. I am willing to negotiate a peace with the Jin army and reduce taxes for the south. What did I do wrong?"

Zhao Ning continued with a straight face.

Qin Hui said with emotion in his heart: Your Majesty, you have finished all the good things. Next, you will kill people and ransack your house, so we can only sing praises.

What kind of emperor is the scariest?

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang?

No no no, Zhu Yuanzhang killed so many people and was scolded by many people.

Emperors like Emperor Wen of Han, Liu Heng, are the scariest.

Emperor Han Wen killed many people, and those who were killed by Emperor Han Wen not only lost their heads, but also ruined their reputations.

The more Han Wendi killed people, the more he was sung, and he sang it from the bottom of his heart.

When it comes to Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, he is the creator of the rule of Wenjing, but after looking through the history books carefully, he discovered the cruelty of the history books.

This is called the black-bellied sage king, who not only got rid of what he wanted to get rid of, but also won a world-wide reputation for the Han Dynasty and accumulated enough people's hearts and virtues.

Just think about it, if Emperor Han Wen was a tossing emperor like Yang Guang, who exhausted the power of the people, would Emperor Han Jing still dare to have the confidence to quell the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms?Does Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still have the confidence to toss the power of the people of the world?

There is a limit to the endurance of the people in a country. From the perspective of the supreme ruler, not only how to get rid of the enemy must be considered, but also the endurance of the people in the world.

This kind of emperor is the group of the top ranks of emperors.

At this time, Qin Hui deeply felt the methods of Zhao Guan's family like Emperor Wen of Han.

Emperor Han Wen abolished torture with his left hand, lightly taxed him, and rested with the people, and killed people with a knife in his right hand.

Facing this kind of emperor, you can't resist at all, because he has taken the sword and righteousness, and you can't even find a reason to resist.

There was a dead silence in the hall.

No one speaks.

As we all know, at this time, silence is the safest.

As long as I keep my head down, the teacher will not point me to answer questions.

The silence continued.

The ministers did not speak, and neither did Zhao Ning.

The atmosphere was so depressing that one felt as if a stone had been crushed in one's heart.

The current pattern is actually very clear.

Nanfang Liulu promulgated tax exemption, and Huaidong and Jiangdong were not included in the tax exemption list.

This also means that no matter what happens in Huaidong and Jiangdong, there will be no strong opposition from various quarters in the south.

And the court officials, officials in Tokyo and Nanjing, many of whom have land in the south, have already taken reassurance, and more or less have a mentality of "nothing to do with themselves" towards Huaidong and Jiangdong.

This once again confirms that the concept of "civilian group" invented by some historical inventors is basically a false proposition.

It is normal for the bureaucracy to squabble among each other, and party struggles between dead friends and poor people are the norm.

As for some of the bureaucrats in Koto Arita, now that Koto has been labeled as a rebel, they are basically afraid to speak out, otherwise they may be labeled as a rebellion.

After a while, Zhao Ning said, "Kang Kang."

Zhao Gou came out and said, "The minister is here."

Everyone glanced at Zhao Gou.

Zhao Gou is a veteran in dealing with agricultural issues, and he disposed of all the fields of the clan.

He has a high prestige, and he is the Governor of Kaifeng, one of the candidates for the crown prince. After all, it seems reasonable to ask him at this time.

"What do you think of this?"

Zhao Gou said: "I feel that we should send more troops to the southeast, lest the situation develop into what Fang La did back then, which would cause too much damage to the country."

"Zong Ze led thousands of troops and went to Jiangdong to rectify military affairs. With him around, the Jiangdong rebels would not be able to jump up. I am completely assured of him. I am asking you how to make up for the current political turmoil in Jiangdong."

Zhao Gou said: "The turmoil in Jiangdong lies in the hearts of the people, and the hearts of the people lie in the land tax. Since His Majesty has ordered the implementation of the New Deal in Huaidong and Jiangdong, the only problem now is how to implement the New Deal as soon as possible. As long as the New Deal is implemented, the people's hearts belong to the court. Jiangdong will naturally return to stability."

"Have you all heard King Kang's insights?"

The crowd said: "The ministers and others have heard it."

"What do you think?"

The crowd said again: "Your Majesty is wise, what King Kang said is reasonable."

"Qin Hui."

Qin Hui came out: "The minister is here."

"You told me before that Lu Yi is a rare talent, did I remember correctly?"

Qin Hui's expression changed drastically, and he quickly knelt down.

"Don't kneel, stand up and speak, don't let the ministers misunderstand that I am bullying you with this matter."

Gao Qiu on the side looked at this scene gloatingly, and thought to himself: Official, aren't you just using this to bully Qin Hui?When you say this, everyone now suspects that Qin Hui and Lu Yi are in the same group, and directly accuses Qin Hui of Jiangdong's conspiracy.

At this time, the admonisher Li Yu immediately came out, and he said: "Your Majesty, I feel that Qin Xianggong may have something to do with this matter!"

Qin Hui was taken aback. He had never been so frightened since he entered the center of the Great Song Dynasty.

He hastily said: "It was the minister's mistake, and the minister was also deceived by Lu Yi!"

But Li Yu continued: "Whether you have been cheated or not, how can Mr. Qin be able to clear it up with a single sentence?"

The others couldn't help being surprised, this Li Yu is quite courageous, he dared to openly label Qin Hui in the court, who is behind him?

Qin Hui said: "I am willing to temporarily resign from the ruling position and accept investigation."

"Okay, okay." Zhao Ning said, "I believe in Mr. Qin, the most urgent task is how to implement a new policy in Jiangdong as soon as possible. Can Mr. Qin have a good way?"

Qin Hui's back and palms were covered with cold sweat, his mind was spinning quickly, and he said, "I am willing to go to Jiangdong in person to put things right."

"Okay! With Mr. Qin's words, I am relieved, and that's it."

After all, Zong Ze is an official in the military and political affairs, so it is inappropriate to rashly interfere with the administration in Jiangdong.

The most important thing for Zongze is to rectify the local military affairs in the southeast, so as to ensure the overall stability.

After retiring from the court, Zhao Guan's family summoned Qin Hui alone in Wende Hall.

"Is there any connection between a state official in Jiangdong and Lu Yi?" Zhao Guanjia suddenly asked such a nonsensical question.

Qin Hui was stunned for a moment, guessing the meaning behind Zhao Guanjia's words, he said, "Many of them may be related."

Zhao Ning said: "If they are all replaced now, it may affect the local order. I need you to find out whether they are related to Lu Yi, and then handle it flexibly."

Qin Hui was stunned again.

Zhao Guanjia also said: "The most urgent task is to deal with the fields of local landlords and squires, and clearly distinguish between primary and secondary conflicts."

Primary and secondary contradictions?

Although this was the first time he heard such a description, Qin Hui finally understood the inner meaning of Zhao Guanjia.

The New Deal was to be implemented in Jiangdong and Huaidong, but there was too much resistance, and the core of the resistance came from the local big landlords and gentry.

The biggest problem of local officials is practicing Tai Chi and concealing the truth. They all have a mentality: nothing to do with themselves, do less and make less mistakes.

This is the biggest obstacle to the rapid fall of the New Deal.

However, the time required to change a group of people is beyond the court's ability to wait.

Now naturally there is a better way to solve this matter.

Qin Hui finally understood.

The next Jiangdong will indeed undergo a major change of blood, but it is not the officials that will be changed for the time being, but the local landlords, followed by the officials.

But this kind of thing now needs someone to do it secretly and secretly.

This person is Qin Hui.

Chapter 539 The Rebellion in the South of the Yangtze River (Second Update)

Zhao Guanjia even hinted at how to operate it.

Qin Hui said, "Does Huaidong need to be dealt with?"

"Take care of Jiangdong first. Those students in Huaidong who refused to take the exam are just trivial matters. Let Huaidong take care of Jiangdong."

"Yes!"

That day Qin Hui tidied up a lot, then took a boat on the Bian River and went all the way down to Jiangdong.

At this time, Yue Fei had arrived in Jiangzhou, not far from Hongzhou.

It had just rained and the ground was muddy.

Teams of cavalry rushed across the path.

Yue Fei adopted the tactic of dividing his troops in three directions. Although he only brought [-] cavalry, his combat power and mobility were strong. Spreading his troops, he could use the information difference from different directions to quickly attack the opponent.

In the early morning of July [-]th, Yue Fei was in Jiangzhou to make supplies.

On the contrary, Wang Chang, the magistrate of Jiangzhou, learned that the imperial soldiers were coming, and he brought the gentry from Jiangzhou to welcome and entertain Yue Fei.

Wang Chang flattered and said: "We have long heard that Yue Shuai is a famous general who shakes the world, seeing him today, he really deserves his reputation!"

Liu Li, the landlord of Jiangzhou, said: "I have admired Shuai Yue's name for a long time. This is our little care, and it is not a respect."

"Yes, yes! This is our little care!"

The others also hurriedly laughed.

The box was opened, and there were copper coins and gold and silver in it.

"This commander is the border commander, an official appointed by the court, how can he accept other characters at will, everyone put it away."

Everyone thought that Yue Fei didn't like these things, so they immediately ordered someone to bring a big box, which also contained copper coins, gold and silver.

"Wang Zhixian, you are bribing Bian Shuai, you are quite courageous!" Yue Fei shouted sharply.

Only now did everyone know that this Yue Shuai really didn't intend to take him anymore, so they hurriedly made amends.

At this time, the scout came back.

"Yue Shuai, the situation in the south is very complicated now. Many people have fled to the north. Hongzhou City did not open the city gates. Instead, some people joined the rebel army and robbed all the local households and government households."

Yue Fei's heart sank, he never thought that the situation on Jiangnan West Road was so serious.

Fortunately, the Jin army is standing still now. If there is a big disturbance on Jiangnan West Road at this time, the time to calm the chaos will inevitably be extended. At that time, the Jin army will definitely be aware of the real situation in the south.

Thinking of this, Yue Fei once again admired Zhao Guan's decision.

It takes courage to decisively mobilize the most elite cavalry on the border south during the critical period of the confrontation between Song and Jin.

Zhao Guanjia's intention is obvious, to kill the rebellion as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Therefore, there is not much time left for Yue Fei.

"Have any rebels been caught for interrogation?"

"The forwards should be back soon."

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xian and others did come back.

Zhang Xian took three hundred cavalry and captured a group of small-scale rebels near Hongzhou.

These people are shabby, unkempt, and skinny, and some of them are only teenagers.

There was no sign of any rebels.

Yue Fei asked Zhang Xian: "Is this a rebel army?"

"Yue Shuai, these are the rebels!"

"Then Cao Cheng's team is composed of such people?"
