    Zhao Ji looked around at everyone and said: "The Liangshan grass bandits are a serious problem that must be eliminated. Who will share the worries with me?"

    Zhao Ji originally thought that as soon as he finished speaking, ministers would rush out. After all, there were only 20,000 grass bandits in Liangshan, so this was a good opportunity to get promoted.  But after he finished speaking, he found that in addition to silence, there was still silence in the hall.

    After waiting for a while, Zhao Ji became impatient and said, "Cai You."

    When Cai You heard the emperor¡¯s roll call, he quickly stepped out of the queue and said: ¡°I am here.¡±

    Zhao Ji looked at Cai You and said with a smile: "When we discussed joining forces with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty, you volunteered to be the deputy governor. Tong Guan, the governor of Liao and the two rivers, led the troops to destroy Fang La. I ordered you, the deputy governor, to lead the troops.  Go and exterminate the bandits in Liangshan. Let¡¯s see who among you, Xuanfu, is the first to win. The one who returns to the court first will be promoted to the next level.¡±

    When Cai You heard this, his face turned pale, and he joined forces with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty. He thought that Tong Guan, a veteran on the battlefield, would lead the army, and there were elites from the Western Army, and the Liao Kingdom had been defeated by the Jin Kingdom and there were still some defeated soldiers left, so he rushed to do it.  Deputy Xuanfu, so as to gain some military exploits and gain promotion to a higher rank.  But when he was asked to lead the army alone to attack Liangshan, he was self-aware. Gao Qiu led an army of 100,000 and was defeated and died. I'm afraid his defeat would be even worse.

    Just when Cai You was about to speak, Zhao Ji stood up and walked out.

    The head official of the palace also shouted: "Retreat from the court."

    "Best farewell to Your Majesty."

    "Best farewell to Your Majesty."

    Cai You also bowed to everyone and immediately ran out.

    Wang Fu looked at Cai You's irritated look and deliberately stopped Cai You, saying, "Congratulations to Mr. Cai on this good job."

    Cai You glared at Wang Fu, avoided him and ran out.

    Zhao Ji had known that Cai You would catch up. He just walked slowly out of the hall. Seeing Cai You running up out of breath, he smiled and said, "Do you have anything else to do?"

    Cai You said hurriedly: "I have been feeling a little unwell recently. I would like to ask your Majesty to choose someone else to lead the troops to exterminate the bandits in Liangshan, so as not to miss important court events."

    Zhao Ji's face was serious and he shouted: "Yesterday, you were still playing the role of an actor in the palace and jumping up and down. How could there be anything wrong with you? You guys are so bold. I just scolded you in the hall, and now you are here to hide it from me?"

    Cai You saw that Zhao Ji had changed his usual behavior of playing with them, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "How dare I deceive your Majesty? When I got up today, I felt unwell. Just now in the main hall, I felt pain all over my body. It was really difficult to bear the bumps of the carriage."  ¡±

    Zhao Ji kicked Cai You over and said with a smile: "You are addicted to pretending to be an actor, and you are sweating. If I didn't know who you were, you would really have been deceived by you. Do you want me to pass it on to you?"  How many royal doctors are here to take a look?"

    Cai You was lying on the ground. Seeing Zhao Ji return to his original appearance of playing with them, he became more courageous. He got up from the ground and said flatteringly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, you still haven't hid anything from your Majesty."

    Zhao Ji smiled and said: "I have known you since I was still King Duan. How can I still be deceived by you?"

    When Cai You heard this, he was not ashamed but proud and said: "Your Majesty also knows that Wei Chen has never been in battle, but this time he asked me to command the army to wipe out the Liangshan bandits. It doesn't matter if Wei Chen dies, I'm just afraid of losing the troops and generals.  I¡¯ve missed important court matters.¡±

    Zhao Ji glared at Cai You and said, "Then when we were discussing the conquest of Liao, why did you rush to be the deputy governor?"

    Of course, Cai You cannot say that he wants to grab the merit, although everyone knows that the emperor wants to take advantage of the opportunity to surpass Taizong Taizu and become the first emperor of the Song Dynasty, and they plan to grab the battle merit and gain promotion.

    However, no one can pierce this layer of window paper. Cai You said with a playful smile: "Your Majesty also knows that I am smart and studious. Although I have never been in a battle, I can still be qualified as a deputy governor by studying with Privy Tong.  But this time the emperor asked me to lead the army alone, is it a bit overwhelming? "

    Zhao Ji saw that Cai You was using these slang words to flatter him, so he kicked Cai You.

    "Ouch"

    Cai You fell to the ground exaggeratedly, rubbing the place where Zhao Ji kicked him.

    Zhao Ji glared at Cai You and said, "I don't know about your evil thoughts? Don't worry, I will allow you to choose soldiers and horses across the country. You can mobilize 100,000 elite soldiers and generals, but you are afraid that you will not be able to wipe out the two sides."  Wanliangshan bandits? As long as you wipe out the Liangshan bandits, I can give you a promotion. Wang Fu still lacks some political talents. It is a pity that Prime Minister Cai is unwilling to join forces to destroy Liao. Otherwise, I will take charge of the three provinces.  You can worry less."

    Cai You finally overthrew his father and suppressed his younger brother who was doted on by Cai Jing. Hearing this, he got up and said: "My father is old and weak, how can he still handle government affairs as he did in previous years."

    As he spoke, he said with a playful smile: "I have learned 80% of my father's political skills. As long as the Holy One gives meAfter a while, I can still do the job as a young Prime Minister.  From now on, the names of the prime ministers and ministers of Cai and Cai will remain in the annals of history. Isn't it a good story?  "

    Zhao Ji smiled and said: "I also know that you have extraordinary qualifications and a family background. Maybe you have the talent of a prime minister. But you are still relatively young, so I asked you to go and exterminate the Liangshan bandits. When you come back after winning the victory, I will  I¡¯ll give you an official post. Wang Fu¡¯s performance after becoming prime minister is really unsatisfactory. If you do some meritorious deeds, there¡¯s no telling if your Cai family will be able to produce two prime ministers.¡±

    Cai You actually looked down on Wang Fu in his heart. His Cai family could be said to be a family of officials, but Wang Fu was from a humble background. His father actually gave him the name Wang Fu, an eunuch of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Later, he received a gift from the emperor and gave him the name Wang Fu.  Changed to íë.  Wang Fu's name can be said to be one of the jokes among scholars. He only made his fortune by flattering the eunuch Liang Shicheng. He was promoted to eight ranks and became prime minister in one year.

    Cai You felt that if he were made prime minister, he would definitely beat Wang Fu.  So he immediately said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace."

    Zhao Ji said hurriedly: "Please wait and thank me. I am just giving you a chance. I only need you to perform well before I can let you be the prime minister."

    Cai You said with a smile: "The emperor has told me to choose my troops and horses at will, so I can definitely achieve this result. I will choose 100,000 Western troops, and I will guarantee that all the Liangshan bandits will be wiped out."

    Hearing this, Zhao Ji hurriedly said: "The Western Army is not good, you can choose whatever you want except the Western Army."

    When Cai You heard this, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "The emperor just said that I can choose my troops, so why can't the Western Army do the same?"

    Zhao Ji said helplessly: "Tong Guan has brought 200,000 Western troops to annihilate Fangla. The remaining Western troops have to guard against Xixia's invasion of the border and cannot be mobilized anymore. You can choose other soldiers and horses. Even my Upper Fourth Army can be used.  You choose some.¡±

    "If the Western Army can't do it, then only the Forbidden Army will be left. But Gao Qiu, with one hundred thousand Forbidden Army, is vulnerable, and I'm afraid the other Forbidden Army won't be able to do it either. What other soldiers and horses are there?"

    Cai You thought for a while and suddenly said: "Yes, didn't the imperial court recruit ten military envoys a few years ago? They all came from the green forest, and like the Liangshan bandits, they were recruited only after the imperial court failed to arrest them. If we take them  To exterminate the bandits in Liangshan, I will definitely succeed immediately. I will choose these ten governors."

    Hearing what Cai You said, Zhao Ji felt that it was feasible and said with a smile: "Then go and prepare, I will wait for your success." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
