This person, together with Qin Hui, framed Yue Fei in history and knelt in front of the tomb of King Yue.

But he was especially fond of his sons.

Zhao Ning put down his teacup, drooped his eyelids, looked at Zhang Jun, and asked calmly, "Who else in the court will do these business with you?"

"No... no more."

"Ok?"

"Still... still."

"Who?"

"This person is not an official, but his identity is extraordinary."

"How extraordinary?"

"He... He Yong."

"He Yong?" Zhao Ning froze for a moment.

He was actually waiting for Wang Boyan's name, or Qin Hui's name.

But he didn't expect He Yong to wait out.

Who is He Yong?

He Li's son!

He Li is the prime minister on the left, and usually keeps a low profile. After experiencing the Guo Jing incident in the early years of Jingkang, He Li stamped his seal on the province and basically did not interfere in any political affairs.

This is also what Zhao Ning wants.

There were two prime ministers in the Great Song Dynasty, which were to restrain each other. This system itself is no problem.

But during the special period of the New Deal, the efficiency will be reduced, so putting He Li in the position of the left prime minister is actually a decoration, and by the way, when the seal is stamped, he will report to the Zhao official family from time to time.

This not only relieved Zhao Ding's pressure, but also increased Zhao Ning's control over Zhengshitang.

It is a very stable equilibrium state.

It seems that there are not many clean people in this court.

"I'll ask you again, who is the official Wang?"

"Wang Guanren is He Yong, his pseudonym. He often travels from the capital to Zhaozhou. His father is the prime minister of the dynasty. No one is willing to make things difficult for officials along the way, and he has not harmed the interests of officials everywhere, so They all turned a blind eye."

"He Li is behind this matter?"

"This minister doesn't know, but if Mr. He doesn't know, I'm afraid it's impossible."

"Who else?"

"No... no more."

"Really gone?"

"It's really gone!"

"How much money did you make at the border?"

"I made... I made 50 guan."

"Don't make me copy your home."

"Earned five... five million guan."

Even though Zhao Ning was so calm, his heart skipped a beat when he heard this number.

An army of 10 people, if calculated according to the military expenditure of Jingkang for eight years, the annual salary is 240 million guan, plus food and grass expenses of 120 million guan, the full budget is 360 million guan.

In other words, the money Zhang Jun earns at the border alone can support an army of 10 people for a year, and there is an extra 140 million yuan.

If you count other expenses of the army, such as armor, weapons, etc., all are used up.

That can also support this army for a year!

According to Zhang Shuye's current estimate of 6 casualties based on various estimates, the total cost of pensions is 300 million, which is really more than enough.

The remaining 200 million guan are invested in the construction of the three towns in Hebei, which is barely enough for a year, right?

Don't forget, when Mei Zhili calculated the military expenditure of the Sixth Route Army in Shaanxi, it was only 600 million yuan a year.

Zhao Ning was silent for a while, and said: "If you don't do this, if you hand over 500 million coins, I will not only not kill you and your family, but also keep your official position and continue to be an official of the Song Dynasty."

Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment, as if a drowning man had grasped a life-saving straw, he suddenly raised his head to look at the kind-looking Zhao Guanjia.

Zhao Ning is very clear that if Zhang Jun is executed immediately, he will never get 500 million coins. Zhang Jun will not be so stupid as to put all his money together, it must be stored separately.

Besides, a pile of feces in the toilet can be thrown on the enemy's face to disgust the enemy, if it cannot be thrown, it can also be used as fertilizer.

A person like Zhao Ning must suck someone's bone marrow dry.

Those who can be used must continue to be squeezed.

Now it is equivalent to buying the lives of your whole family with 500 million pennies.

Zhao Ning knew that Zhang Jun had more than 500 million crowns. In the past few years at the border, his money was not only earned by smuggling from the Song and Jin Dynasties, but he must also have a lot of industries in the Song Dynasty.

It is impossible to earn 500 million guan from border smuggling.

The imperial court's discussion field can't earn so much in a year.

Another point is that not only He Li must be involved behind this, there must be others on Zhang Jun's commercial interest line.

Keep Zhang Jun, don't worry.

He Li's chancellor must not continue to do so.

Changing slaughters must be done one by one, and too many changes at one time will cause political turmoil.

From the standpoint of the emperor, the external stability of the frontier and the internal political stability are the two most important points.

"Why?" Zhao Ning smiled, "I don't want to?"

"Yes! Yes!" Zhang Jun quickly kowtowed, "Thank you for your majesty's grace! Thank you for your majesty's grace!"

"Get up and talk."

Zhang Jun stood up tremblingly.

"In fact, I really want to promote you, I think you are a talent!" Zhao Ning's tone changed again, it was the tone of hating iron but not steel, "But you let me down so much!"

"My lord is guilty!"

"Zong Han was released for the crime, you can't get rid of it, it's on you!"

Afterwards, Zhao Ning changed the subject and said: "But it's not a crime to die for. To the outside world, it is said that you made a mistake and let the bandit chief take the opportunity to escape. I dismissed you as the deputy general manager of Zhaozhou, but I think you are loyal to me. I asked you to go to the Shipping Department in Hangzhou City, the trade with Japan has been put on the agenda, you love to do business so much, you can do the trade between Da Song and Japan."

Zhang Jun froze for a moment, but didn't react for a while.

"Don't want to?"

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Jun's strength is not fighting at all, but doing business.

Moreover, Zhao Ning put Zhang Jun's line here, not just letting him do business with Japan.

It is known that many officials in the court are thinking of using power for personal gain. This matter should not only be banned from the face, but also suppressed by invisible emperor means.

And this also involves the issue of power consolidation.

He Li has been sitting in the left position for too long, and if one person sits in the same position for too long, the power in his hand will solidify and expand.

Therefore, Zaizhi needs to change people regularly, but not too many at a time, at most one.

Who else does Zhang Jun have contact with?

Did he just throw a big fish on purpose to divert attention?

Pulling line by line, no rush.

Chapter 790 Jin Guoxin’s Power (First Update)

Early in the morning on October [-], Han Shizhong received information from Fuzhou.

Han Shizhong's face darkened.

Geng asked: "Guardian, what's the matter?"

"Dong Tan's entire army was wiped out in Gaizhou."

As soon as he said this, there was a dead silence around him.

"It's impossible!" Hu Yantong said.

"It's Tiefutu who came." Han Shizhong sighed.

Geng said: "Could it be that Jin Wushu came personally?"

"The situation is critical. Now is not the time to talk about the specific situation of the enemy. The Jin army has already marched south to Fuzhou." Han Shizhong made a decisive decision, "Huyantong, you immediately lead [-] elites back to the capital city to support Fuzhou. Be careful."

"Yes!"

Hu Yantong led the troops to leave Kaijing that day.

It was not until October [-]th, when Zhang Rong withdrew to the capital city, that he heard that the Jin army had gone south to Fuzhou.

On this day, Hu Yantong arrived almost at the same time as him.

At this time, under the city of Fuzhou, there were already [-] elite gold troops launching the most violent attack on Fuzhou City.

Fuzhou City is at stake.

Zhang Rong and Hu Yantong immediately went north to support.

The Battle of Fuzhou can be regarded as the continuation of the fifth Song-Jin War.

On October 21, when Zhao Ning Yujia turned back to Daming, Zong Wang also returned to Yanjing.

The first thing Zongwang did when he returned to Yanjing was to arrange for an elite team to go north to Jinzhou while he was seriously ill.

"Your Highness, the King of Wei and the crown prince are on their way to Yanjing and will arrive tomorrow."

"King Wei?" Zong Wang was stunned for a moment, "He's here?"

"It seems that Jinzhou's problem has been solved." Zong Wang heaved a sigh of relief.

After speaking, Zong Wang fell to the ground.

"Your Highness!"

"Father!"

It was already the next day when Zongwang woke up from a coma again.

After a while, a youth and a teenager walked in.

"Second brother!" Wu Shu walked to the bed and asked with concern, "How do you feel?"

In front of Zongwang, Wu Shu was a completely different person.

"You came."

"I'm here, and everything is settled. The Song army in Jinzhou has already withdrawn, and I have also sent people to Fuzhou. You don't have to worry, don't worry too much, and pay attention to your body."

Zongwang's face was as pale as paper, but his gaze was still as calm as water, and he looked at Wanyanquan.

"His Royal Highness."

"Uncle Yan Wang." Wanyan Quan said in a very respectful tone.

I am afraid that there is no one in the Kingdom of Jin who does not respect Zong Wang, even Zong Han respects him a lot.

"It's fine if you come, it's fine if you come, I, Da Jin, can survive this calamity, Wu Shu, help me up."

Wu Shu hesitated for a moment, but still supported Zongwang to sit up.

"Zong Han is defeated."

"I've already heard what Liu Yanzong said."

"This battle has changed me, Da Jin, and Song State." Zong Wang said, "Zong Wang's prestige in the court will further decline, and my time is running out."

"I will make those doctors take good care of your disease!" Wu Shu said, "I will kill anyone who dares to take care of you!"

"It's useless, I know my own body." Zong Wang sighed, "Dai Jin is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and can only rely on you, Wushu, can only rely on you!"
