- How long can a person survive in the scorching desert? Wen Shen didn't know it before, but now he knows it. The answer is two hours.
Liang Shicheng was stripped of his clothes, briefly tied up, and thrown into the desert at 50 degrees Celsius. After wailing for an hour, I finally got more air in and less air out. After another hour of convulsions, I completely died in the sun. [bsp; "This eunuch who deceived the public with his evil words finally got the punishment he deserved!"
Wen Shen leaned on the chair, drank ice-cold Wanglao Ji, and looked at Song Huizong, who was pale and trembling all over. In fact, he felt that he was good enough to Song Huizong. If the original historical process was followed, Song Huizong's family would have been captured by the Jin and taken to Heilongjiang. The men were killed and the women were raped. It was countless times worse than the current situation.
"What the Imperial Preceptor said is absolutely true. This damn eunuch should have died a long time ago." Song Huizong wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, "National Preceptor, I don't know when we will return to the capital."
"Your Majesty, you can go back anytime!"
"Butbut, if the imperial master doesn't cast the spell, I can't go out?" Song Huizong felt like he wanted to cry without tears. This feeling was very uncomfortable.
"Well, I hope that after your Majesty returns, he can be a good emperor and work hard to study poetry, music, calligraphy and painting. As for the rest, I won't bother your Majesty."
"What the Imperial Master said is very true. I will study calligraphy and painting more in the future. I still have some experience in this matter." Song Huizong felt bitter in his heart, but he replied hurriedly.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
After saying this, Wen Shen took Song Huizong and Liu Guifei back to Yanfu Palace. Song Huizong glanced at the familiar Yanfu Palace, feeling as if he was in another world. When he saw Wen Shen, he knew that all this was real and not a dream.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen suggested that it would be more appropriate to withdraw the Privy Councilor tomorrow and let Wei Chen be in charge of the Forbidden Army?" Wen Shen thought for a while and decided that it was necessary to obtain the command of the Imperial Army.
Hearing this, Song Huizong looked extremely ugly. At this time, he really wanted to send someone to arrest the traitor. But when he thought of Liang Shicheng's tragic situation, he suddenly lost his temper.
¡¡
The next day, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty issued a decree and Wen Shen served as the privy envoy. In this way, both military and political power were in Wen Shen's hands. Of course, there must be some dissatisfied ministers, but for a moment they did not dare to challenge him.
Facing the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops stationed near the capital, Wen Shen felt it was necessary to find something to do for these people. After thinking for a long time, he decided to mobilize 300,000 troops to build the Jingyou Railway. In addition, twenty troops were allocated to dredge the Sui and Tang Grand Canals, especially the Yongji Canal from Luoyang to Youzhou.
When this order was given to the Forbidden Army, it caused a commotion in the army. Several of the military generals came to Wen Shen and asked, "Master Privy Council, why are you asking our imperial guards to build railways and canals? Isn't it too much?"
Wen Shen looked at these people coldly and said, "Who gave you the food you eat?"
"The court!"
"Now the imperial court asks you to build the railway, and it has wronged you."
Several generals racked their brains but could not think of a suitable excuse. When Wen Shen saw this, he chuckled and said, "You can go and repair it if you don't go far away. I can definitely ask the civilian workers to build it. It's a pity that the generous wages can only be given to the civilian workers."
"Wages? What kind of wages? Are there still wages for building railways and canals?" One of the generals asked eagerly with his eyes wide open.
"Of course there is salary, but it's not much, just the same amount for a month. I guess you don't like it either." Wen Shen waved his hand and said.
"My Lord Privy Council, I think that building the railway and canal still requires some effort. We in the Forbidden Army are all in strong years, so there is absolutely no problem in building this thing. I think it can be built tomorrow." A military general winked at the others. road.
Wen Shen chuckled, "Oh, aren't you unwilling to do this kind of physical work?"
"No way!"
Several generals said in unison. In fact, in the late Northern Song Dynasty, many military generals were living on empty pay, and the Forbidden Army was severely short of vacancies. Now let them build the railway. How could these generals send so many people? Even if they recruit people temporarily, they will lose their small treasury. Now that Wen Shen is paying, it's different. They can recruit people temporarily and still make some money. Of course they don't want to let such a good thing go.
¡¡
When Zhang Junbao learned that 300,000 troops were assisting him in building the railway, he was overjoyed and said to Wen Shen: "My boss, with these 300,000 people, I think the Beijing-Youzhou Railway can be built in two years."
"That's good! By the way, have you figured out how to build the Yellow River Bridge now?"
The location of Wenshen is where the bridge is planned to be built. ?Along the turbid and wide Yellow River, he still doesn't know how to build it.
"I've thought about it, but it's quite troublesome to say. It requires a machine factory to manufacture a lot of supporting equipment, mainly steel pipes, drilling rigs, etc. So it won't be built until after the year. Now we are building the land part."
"Well, as long as you have a way to build this bridge, I'll be relieved." Wen Shen looked at Zhang Junbao and smiled: "Junbao, you are now in your twenties, right? Are you married?"
Zhang Junbao lowered his head and smiled shyly, and whispered: "I am busy every day, how can I have time to get married?"
Wen Shen frowned and deliberately said coldly: "Jun Bao, you can't do this. No matter how busy you are, you have to start a family. You have been building railways for several years. Many craftsmen are veterans. There is no need for you to stay at the construction site every day. .
I will give you a task now. You must get married this year. If you can't complete it, I will fire you. "
"Don't! I just promise to complete the task." After saying that, Zhang Junbao's face turned red. In fact, Zhang Tielin had found him a long time ago, but he had been busy, so he put off getting married.
¡¡
There are not many people who can build railways, but there are many Song people who can build and dredge canals. Wen Shen quickly found a dozen officials with such experience in the Ministry of Industry. Then, they were sent to direct the 200,000 restricted area to dredge the canal.
Although these things sound simple, they are actually quite complicated to do. Fortunately, Wen Shen was not fighting alone, but with a group of people. There was nothing else in the Song Dynasty, but there were still many capable officials. Otherwise, why would six of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties be in the Song Dynasty?
On this day, Wen Shen was sitting in the office, looking at the various folds about half a meter high on the table. He felt dizzy and cursed secretly: "It's only been a few days, so you have to read these many folds by yourself.
It¡¯s really not how Song Huizong got through it in the first place. It seems necessary to change this situation. "
Soon, Wen Shen held a closed-door meeting in the capital hall for officials above the ministerial level.
"Grand Master, what's the reason for calling us here today?"
"I didn't read any of the brochures you handed over. Now you take them all back." Wen Shen pointed to the memorial on the table and said very calmly.
"Ah, Grand Master, why is this?" Zheng Ju asked in the middle of the room, puzzled.
"I don't have time to do these boring things! From now on, you and Mr. Yu will be responsible for reviewing and approving these notes. In the end, you two will give me a booklet every day and talk about what you did every day. That's fine, but it shouldn't exceed a thousand Character."
"This is not good!"
Zheng Juzhong and Yu Shen said in unison. At the same time, I thought to myself: "If this is really the case, then the power will be great. But there are still some problems. It's okay if the two people agree, but what if they don't agree?"
After the two people talked about this problem, Wen Shen looked at the six more ministers, the ministers left and right, the ministers, the ministers, and the ministers, and said with a smile: "Whenever I encounter people who are unsure in the future, there will always be ten of you." One person votes by a show of hands, and the minority obeys the majority.¡±
"ah¡¡"
These people did not expect that Wen Shen would do this. In this way, the intellectual group will have more power. It is equivalent to allocating Song Huizong's rights to ministers and Wen Shen. And Wen Shen was a master who didn't take care of things very much, which meant that the literati group controlled the operation of the court.
Rights are indeed a good thing. Once he gets it, asking him to hand it over would be worse than killing him. The civil servant group that was originally against Wen Shen is now slowly leaning towards Wen Shen. - Didn't finish reading?
