Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant
Page 384
"In the beginning, people said that I was a tyrant, and if I disagreed, I would kill people and ransack my home."
"This is a big fallacy!"
"At that time, Hebei and Hedong were lost one after another, and the Jin army came to Tokyo, and the country was in danger."
"There are countless people who make peace in the court."
"I don't kill people, and I don't know how many people will make peace and abandon the city. Where will the millions of people in this city be!"
"I know very well that respecting the virtuous ministers and stopping the killing is the work of the sage king."
"Then, how can I deceive the world by admiring false fame!"
Zhao Ning said a lot in one breath, with both emotion and emotion, quite contagious.
No one moved in the slightest, they just stared at him intently.
Zhao Ning sighed again, and said, "Your Excellencies may not be able to understand this painstaking effort!"
Only then did the crowd say: "Your Majesty's sage and benevolence can illuminate the world. It is the luck of the common people and the blessing of all the people to have such a holy king in the world."
Zhao Guanjia paused for a moment, and then said: "Yes, now, the war is stopped, business and trade are opened, the world is peaceful, and there is nothing wrong in the universe. How can I not feel relieved."
Da Sinonong Chen Dong came out, and he said fiercely: "Your Majesty, absolutely not, gold thieves are tigers and wolves, and now the country and the court are negotiating peace, which is tantamount to seeking skins with tigers!"
As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked.
Li Ruoshui quickly winked at Chen Dong, but Chen Dong stood there rather insistently.
"Da Sinonong's words are wrong!" Zhao Guanjia said, "Stopping the war is what the people of the world want, how can I go against the sky."
"Your Majesty! The gold thief must have..."
Zhao Ding hurriedly came out and said: "Today is a grand ceremony, so don't disturb your Majesty and gentlemen's pleasure, Da Sinong."
"Come, let me have a drink with you gentlemen!"
After finishing speaking, Zhao Ning drank the wine in the glass: "Happy! Happy! In the future, the friendship between Song and Jin will last forever!"
Jin Li Shanqing quickly said: "Your Majesty is wise, I wish the two countries peace forever."
"Okay, gentlemen, drink hard, if you don't get drunk today, you won't return!"
Next, another dance and another drink.
The monarch and his ministers are happy.
Li Shanqing raised his glass alone and walked to the front of the imperial court, and said: "Your Majesty is truly a sage king through the ages, and the admiration of foreign ministers for His Majesty is like a surging river, which stretches endlessly."
After speaking, he drank the wine in his glass.
Zhao Ning seemed to be drinking too much, and said, "From now on, Song and Jin will rely on you for business and trade."
"It is a lifelong honor for foreign ministers to contribute to His Majesty."
"reward!"
The waiter brought a plate of gold.
Li Shanqing was immediately flattered: "The foreign minister has no merit, how dare he accept this great gift."
"This time the Song and Jin truces are all due to the king, and I hope to accept it."
Chen Dong looked at it and said, "Your Majesty is confused!"
Not long after, the Japanese envoy Fujiwara Shizuo also came to toast, and he said in suffocated official language: "The ministers wish Your Majesty peace."
"Saint Boon."
"Our country has admired the Celestial Dynasty for a long time, and I hope that His Majesty will also officially open business and trade between the two countries."
It has not been a day or two since the Song Dynasty and Japan have been doing business at sea. The Four Treasures of the Study, Poems, Books, Silk, Ceramics, etc. of the Song Dynasty are very popular among the upper class in Japan.
But after all, the transaction is not something on the table, and the scale is limited.
Zhao Ning said: "I heard that your country has a lot of gold and silver."
It's no secret that Japan is a land of gold and silver.
In the Song Dynasty, Da Song had already begun to import alluvial gold from Japan.
In the sixth year of Xuanhe Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, Japan even built a golden hall in Chuzun Temple in Oshu. Many businessmen who did business with Japan in the Song Dynasty knew about it.
As a result, Japan has the title of the country of gold in this era.
As for the later silver production in Japan, it was already in the late Ming Dynasty.
Chapter 548 Jin Guoxue Da Song? (Second more)
Fujiwara Shizuo said, "It's just as His Majesty said."
Zhao Guanjia said: "Presumably there are many private businessmen who do business with your country."
"There are indeed many people among the people who are willing to do business with our country. If His Majesty can issue an edict, there will be countless ships for business and trade between the two countries."
Zhao Ning laughed loudly and said, "Now that the world is in peace, can Aneng not be involved in business?"
Fujiwara Shizuo froze for a moment.
Zhao Ning said boldly: "Sure!"
Zheng Changjun, the Korean envoy, was naturally not far behind, and came over to toast.
Zhao Ning said: "Your country already has trade with the Celestial Dynasty, how about a comprehensive trade?"
Zheng Changjun said happily: "Foreign Minister, thank Your Majesty for your grace!"
Seeing this scene, Naxilin Helu whispered in Li Shanqing's ear: "Official Zhao is overwhelmed with complacency."
Li Shanqing whispered: "Isn't this exactly what we want to see?"
As night fell, the lights came on, and the night market in Tokyo City also started.
Zhao Ning seemed to have drunk too much, and fell asleep when he returned to Funing Palace.
On the tenth day of September, the autumn wind in Yanjing was already quite cool, and the roadside was full of fallen leaves.
Zong Wang dragged his tired body to the middle hall.
Everyone stood up and saluted, "I have seen Your Highness."
"Sit down." Zongwang coughed, his face pale.
After sitting down, Zong Wang said, "The imperial court has decided to designate Xijin Mansion as Nanjing, Liaoyang Mansion as Tokyo, Yunzhong Mansion as Xijing, Dading Mansion as Zhongjing, and Huining Mansion as Shangjing."
The crowd remained silent.
These changes naturally herald changes in the power of the court of the Kingdom of Jin, as well as changes in local governance.
In the past, the center of political power in the Kingdom of Jin was in Shangjing, but Shangjing was too far away from other places to be effectively controlled.
Now the five-capital system is equivalent to flattening the power gap in the Kingdom of Jin.
Moreover, the establishment of the Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo has the effect of preventing the Song Army from the Liaodong Peninsula.
As for Yanjing, some people privately believe that the Kingdom of Jin has already prepared to move its capital to the south in order to deal with the Song Dynasty more politically, militarily and culturally.
Zong Wang continued: "Your Majesty bestowed upon me the title of Shangshu Ling to govern all affairs of Yanjing. I hope you will assist me in the future."
Everyone got up and said: "This subordinate is willing to put his heart and soul to the ground for His Highness."
Zong Wang took the official title of Shangshu Ling, and Zong Han took the title of Zhongshu Ling, which heralded the beginning of the internal power reform of Jin State.
One must know that before it was the Bo Jilie system, Bo Jilie had great power, and the emperor had to decide jointly with Bo Jilie on the state affairs of the Kingdom of Jin.
Bo Jilie is more powerful than the prime minister, equivalent to the deputy emperor.
But with the current Shangshu Order and Zhongshu Order, the boundaries of power have gradually become clearer.
This is the beginning of entering imperial centralization.
Moreover, if the Kingdom of Jin wants to govern such a vast land and fight against the increasingly powerful Song Dynasty, it must ease internal conflicts and enrich its overall strength.
Zong Wang said: "Just now, I received good news from Bianjing. The Emperor Song has agreed to all our conditions and is willing to keep peace with us."
Everyone offered various words of praise.
The people here are almost all the peace faction of the Kingdom of Jin, including Wanyan Zongpan, Wanyanchang, Wanyan Zongjun and others.
Wanyan Zongpan asked: "Are you also agreeing to open the business?"
"Promise, except for some contraband, all other commodities are open."
"Good!" Zong Pan was overjoyed.
Although both Zongpan and Zongwang are peacemakers, their ideas on peacemaking are different.
To be precise, Zong Wang is also the faction to destroy the Song Dynasty, but he believes that the Kingdom of Jin cannot destroy the Song Dynasty by blindly using troops.
To destroy the Song Dynasty, it is necessary to carry out a comprehensive attack on the Song Dynasty from the political, cultural and military levels.
For example, Zongwang opened a literary museum in Yanjing to attract people of insight from the north to revise and interpret Confucian classics.
He also called on the whole country of Jin to regard itself as the Northern Dynasty and call Song the Southern Dynasty.
It means: Chinese orthodoxy is in Dajin.
This is a shaping of Jin's internal ideology.
What are the benefits of doing this?
For example, the people of Zhending Mansion and Zhongshan Mansion now recognize the Great Song Dynasty. If scholars from these places are recruited to Yanjing, they will be recruited and let them re-note Confucian classics.
When they return to their hometown, they will recognize the court of the Kingdom of Jin as authentic.
This is the sublimation of administrative rule, which is of great benefit to ruling the locality.
Another example is the promotion of a large number of Han Chinese into the bureaucracy.
This can attract literati and bureaucrats who were unknown in the Song Dynasty.
Finally, the recruitment system was initially established at the military level, and the combination of the recruitment system and Meng'an's restraint was achieved to enhance military strength and shift the focus of the army to Liaoyang and Yanjing, so that it would be convenient to launch a larger-scale war against the Song Dynasty in the future.
However, Wanyan Zongpan is really a little ambitious and incompetent.
Zong Pan's main peace, one is to fight against Zong Han's power, and he wants to be in power, and the other is to improve his life and enjoy life by doing business with Song Dynasty.
As for the extermination of the Song Dynasty, Zong Pan didn't have any thoughts in this regard.
The reason why they can still come together now is only because the superficial political ideas are roughly the same.
Now that the Song and Jin dynasties have completed the business, Zong Pan believes that with the current situation, thanks to his triumphant return in the court, those nobles who are drunk with money and money will definitely thank him.
I am one step closer to the throne of the emperor.
Liu Yanzong said: "His Royal Highness, could this be a trick of the Song Dynasty to confuse us on the surface and prepare an army secretly?"
"The emperor of the Song Dynasty invited my court envoy to a banquet, and said a lot of words to his ministers."
Zong Pan immediately said: "The state of Song doesn't want to fight anymore. Didn't you say that the south of the state of Song is even more unwilling to fight? Official Zhao's family even exempted the south from taxes. Where did he get the money to fight us? Now he is negotiating with us. Trade, that is his helpless move, it is good for us."
Wan Yanchang said: "That's right, it's good for us."
Zong Wang said again: "I have also obtained the results of the reform of the Song Dynasty over the years here, do you want to hear it?"
The place went quiet.
Zongwang said: "Let's talk about the new agricultural policy first. Farmers from all walks of life in the north have land, and town supervisors are set up to assist in local agriculture. Take Julu, Hebei as an example, there are three supervisors, and each supervisor In the government office, there are special officials who teach people comprehensive agricultural knowledge at the local level, and have established a special manure disposal system, a peasant labor system, and even detailed how to fertilize the field and when it must be fertilized."
"In addition, the town supervisors have direct contact with farmers, so they can organize farmers faster and better, and open up water conservancy. Within three years, five water canals have been opened in Julu County, and the grain output has doubled compared to Xuanhe's five years!"
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened.
Zong Wang continued: "There are still people in the court who oppose the peace talks and want to resolutely go south to attack the Song Dynasty. I originally intended to waver, but after seeing the results of Song's new policy, I decided to resolutely oppose the war! Because this is a long-term contest, The state of Song has the weakness of the state of Song, if you give them a little peace, they will become obsessed and greedy, but I have seen our weakness, we can't just know how to fight, our fields must also have people."
"Do you know the real reason why the harvest in Julu County has doubled?"
The crowd was silent.
Zong Wang said succinctly: "Official Zhao has reduced farmers' taxes and miscellaneous taxes by renting out the average land, and increased farmers' enthusiasm for farming. This is far beyond our reach."
Chapter 549 The Great Song Merchant Was Detained by Champa? (third change)
Liu Yanzong said: "The lower officials think that among them, the supervising officials play the most important role, which can help the Song court to effectively control the people, and these supervising officials are young people with ambitions, and they are more willing to do things."
"Liu Pushe is right, I was just about to talk about it." Zong Wang was a little excited, and he coughed a few more times, "I decided to establish Yenching University, follow the example of Song Dynasty, and train our supervisors for our agricultural affairs. Town official, enrich Yanyun's agricultural affairs."
Everyone said: "Your Highness is wise."
