    But in the end, even Cai Que did not agree. Zhao servant was too young and hindered the state.  But everyone can also understand Wang Ju's painstaking efforts. In terms of diplomacy, the Central Plains Dynasty has been very clumsy since ancient times, and Wang Ju also rejects this.  Let Maid Zhao observe it, it will undoubtedly be on-site teaching, which will leave a very deep impression on Maid Zhao.  In the end, at Cai Que's suggestion, everyone adopted a compromise approach, with Zhao Xu taking the lead, Wang Ju taking charge of the specific negotiations, and letting Zhao servant sit on the side, and then summoned the Goryeo envoy.  After a while, servant Zhao brought in.  But it would take a while before the Korean envoy could be brought to the palace.  Wang Ju then stepped forward and explained to Zhao servant the ins and outs of the matter, as well as the conversation he had just had with everyone in the palace, including what he said about the inner saint and the outer king and the inner king and the outer saint, about once.  Zhao servant raised his head and asked: "Taibao, is it really terrible for the people to unite as one?" "Do you still remember the story of Tian Dan? Le Yi conquered seventy cities in Qi State, leaving only Jimo and Jucheng. The leader of Jimo died in the battle.  , the army and the people jointly elected Tian Dan as the main general, and it was the army and the people who worked together to turn defeat into victory. This is the best example. Moreover, Xixia still has such a large area, and there may be support from the Liao Kingdom, and Tang Taizong cannot be ignored.  How to destroy the Turks and Xue Yantuo? Every time there was a change in their country, the people were disappointed, and the tribes were disloyal, the Tang Dynasty launched an army to conquer them and wiped them out in one fell swoop. But what Tang Taizong did was not wretched, but great, because it could do so.  Reduce the difficulty of the expedition, reduce the burden on the people in the country, and reduce the sacrifices of the soldiers. "Hearing this, Fan Chunren frowned slightly. Wang Ju's thoughts are very practical, that is, very utilitarian. As an old-school Confucian, he is more or less.  Somewhat unhappy.  But he doesn¡¯t know what to say. Is it wrong to strengthen oneself and make one¡¯s country rich?  Wang Ju continued: "There is another example, that is, I conquered Ali Gu, who was a Uighur. The Tubo tribes did not approve of it, and in addition, he used troops to attack Xitao, and suffered heavy defeats one after another, so I wiped him out in one fell swoop.  If Ali Gu is Dong Xiang's biological son, even if Taoshui and Dingxicheng are victorious, I will advise your Majesty to send envoys to appease the two sides to avoid war." "Why did Dong Xiang choose Ali Gu as his successor?" "Your Highness can think of this problem?  , very wise. In fact, the reason is not very clear to me. Maybe Dong Xiang was seriously ill at that time and did not think about the importance of recognition from all clans. Maybe Dong Xiang's mother Qiao had a grudge against the Li family, so she was against the two Li families.  For example, when Wang Shao sent troops to Xihe, Dong Fei only briefly sent Ali Gu to rescue him. Although the rescue was successful, the force was very small. Therefore, he may have thought in his heart that if he was selected from the descendants of the Li family.  A Zanpu, maybe his wife and some relatives are not safe, it is better to put Ali Gu on the throne. "This is just a guess by Wang Ju. Wang Ju really doesn't know the specifics, and the Khitan princess Dong Fei doesn't know either.  , but the Khitan princess was also sent to the capital to see what the Liao envoys said. If the Liao State was interested, the Song Dynasty would send the princess back to the Liao State.  But this princess is just a clan girl, not really the daughter of Liao Xingzong and the sister of Yelu Hongji.  The Liao Kingdom may not take her seriously.  "I see, then what does it mean to be clear, wise, wise and wise?" "Political clarity means trying to create a fair environment. To be more specific. Your Highness, have you ever heard that a gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way?" "It is wealth and nobility.  "Poverty and lowliness are what people want; if you don't follow the way to get them, you won't get them. Isn't this a little bit wrong?"  Patting my head, these eight words have not been published yet, but this passage in Fuzi's "Li Ren" has a similar meaning. He nodded and said: "That's it. In fact, what I want to say is that farmers want to have a good harvest.  , you must be diligent. If a businessman wants to earn more money, he must use more wisdom. If an official wants to be promoted, he must be diligent and love the people. This is the Tao, rather than using other abnormal means. It is impossible in this world.  There is real peace and wealth, but what the country has to do is to support everyone in using Taoist means to exchange for wealth and create this kind of good environment, which is what I call a fair environment, or what the ancestors call Qi people.  This is what I mean by the politics of Qingming. " "It seems difficult" Zhao servant said, although he is young, he doesn't know anything else, let's just talk about the annexation of the Song Dynasty. Even Wang Ju didn't dare to touch it.  Let¡¯s talk about this fair environment.  "It is indeed difficult. Where there are people, there will be fights. But as a wise king, you can use laws, taxes, imperial examinations, official promotion assessments, and other means to intentionally guide this direction, and then the country can  Theoretically, it is close to this kind of political clarity.¡± ¡°Then what is wise?¡±To have the right way means to be diligent in government and love the people. One more thing, it means to assist the king at the top and provide peace of mind to the people at the bottom. Be more public-minded, more patriotic and less selfish. At the same time, you must also be talented, just like your mentor.  , he has moral integrity and knowledge, but he specializes in educating Confucianism, not in politics, which means that the talent for being an official is in short supply, so he is not qualified to be a wise official.  What I call public-spirited is a wise minister.  ¡± Here, Wang Ju didn¡¯t say anything about selflessness. Wang Ju hated selflessness or things like picking up money for money. He simply changed the word, that is, to preserve the laws of nature and destroy human desires! Can ordinary people do it? Can they do it?  What is sage?  " It is clearly the knowledge of the emperor. Wang Ju glanced at Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu frowned, and said, it doesn't matter. Wang Ju then said: "See Zhuge Liang's entry list, it talks about many emperors' sage knowledge.  Tao, as well as Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, but I can roughly sum it up: first of all, listening is enlightening, and partial belief is dark. The combination I am talking about is not only a scholar-bureaucrat, nor just someone among the ministers, but  Only when all the people in the world, including scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, can understand the needs of all the people in the world can we achieve true enlightenment.  " "Use talents according to their talents and put the right talents in the right positions. For example, Shen Kuo. Using him as a border minister will only lead to the tragedy of Yongle City, but putting him in the Ministry of Industry is the best.  Candidate.  But as a sage king, you must also remember that you should not reuse someone because of your own liking, and do not exclude someone because of your own evil.  For example, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty reused Wei Zheng, which was the best example of a king employing people.  " "When it comes to choosing things, there is no absolute black and white, nor absolute good or bad in this world.  There will never be perfect people or perfect laws and policies. If any policy is implemented, some people will benefit and some will suffer.  Then we must wisely judge the important and the important, choose the important and abandon the light, choose the important and abandon the great harm, and the country can always move forward instead of backward.  " "Fickleness, but this fickleness is not the bad fickleness, but the need to learn to be smart and timely in adapting to the situation. For example, in Huangzhou, if Ali Gu does not betray our dynasty, I will send troops to Huangzhou.  That's called deposing a soldier, and it's a great achievement. If Ali Gu betrays our dynasty, and he is Tubo's orthodoxy, which is popular among the people, then you have to think twice before using troops against Ali Gu, but Ali Gu is not Tubo orthodox, and it is unpopular.  The old minister sent troops to Huangzhou in time.  Eliminate future troubles for the imperial court.  " "However, we should not enjoy great achievements because of this. For example, west of Chiling, if I want to gain a false reputation, I will open up unnecessary territory for the imperial court.  It would be a mistake to lead a large army to capture the Grass-headed Tatars and the Yellow-headed Uighurs.  There is only the Tao of Yongheng in this world, such as the Qi people of our ancestors, who love the people and pay less attention to wealth, but there is no law of Yongheng.  Just like tea tea, when the ancestors first implemented it, it was beneficial to tea farmers and the promotion of tea cultivation. It also increased national income and prospered the national economy. However, later tea tea became more and more one of the country's ills, so it must be changed.  .  " "Enthusiasm is hard and easy to break, but kindness without authority has no strength and cannot be established. Therefore, when I went to Huangzhou, there were also people who killed people. The purpose of killing is to establish authority, but it is supplemented by establishing authority.  , The main thing is to rely on kindness, let alone kill for the sake of killing. That is not the way of kindness and power, but the way of tyranny, the way to destroy Qin!  "Wang Ju then explained his different strategies for dealing with Xixia, Hexi Shuzhou and Huangzhou. "If rewards and punishments are fair and the simple style of ancestors is maintained, if a king can do these things, he can be called a king.  He is a sage king.  " "But shouldn't one be honest?  " "Your Highness, as a king, you must be honest and holy internally. Of course, when the country is so strong that there is no threat, the surrounding barbarians will become honest to the Song Dynasty, and then you can be honest.  Otherwise, it will be the Mohist family. Your Highness, can the Mohist family be used to govern the country?  Can I learn from Song Xianggong?  Just like Goryeo, Goryeo was an ally with Goryeo during Taizong's time, but when Taizong conquered Liao, did Goryeo send troops to contain it from the rear?  As a result, Taizong was defeated, and Goryeo was now repeatedly oppressed by the Liao Kingdom.  So should our court be honest to Goryeo?  "Strengthen yourself," Fan Chunren couldn't help but complain in his heart. However, Zhao Xu was very happy after hearing this, but sighed in his heart that his son was still too young. What Wang Ju said was a bit profound, and his son probably couldn't understand it. But he did  Wrong, if servant Zhao had grown up, Wang Ju would not dare to say this. But Wang Ju was driving away while talking. In fact, Wang Ju was very concerned about the health of the precious father and son.  I also asked Eunuch Zhu sideways, and found out that servant Zhao also fell ill in the autumn this year. It seemed to be a cold. The imperial doctor saw it in time and recovered quickly. This proves that he loves his children very much.  They are still his biological parents, but Zhao servant's mother Zhu has been suppressed very pitifully in history, so Zhao Xu is still alive.Only servants can receive careful care.  Now Wang Ju took a look and found that servant Zhao looked good. Zhao Xu might be able to live for a while. In this way, servant Zhao would be able to withstand Gao Taotao's torture after surviving the initial growth period.  In fact, in history, Zhao servants also gave birth to children, but there was only one son, and he died. It was the turn of the great artist to become the emperor.  I believe that this tragedy will never happen again, so with his talent and his own guidance, a more powerful Song Zhezong will appear in the Song Dynasty in the future.  The Korean envoy was brought in.  Even after Wang Ju explained the truth, several prime ministers did not know how to reply to the Korean envoys, so they just wanted to watch the show together.  The name of the envoy is Park Yanshun. He is not the only one here. However, he is an official envoy and only he was brought in.  After giving the gift, Zhao Xu said: "Pu Qing, this is my Taibao Wang Zi'an of the Song Dynasty. He wants to ask you about the specific story." Wang Zi'an?  Park Yanshun looked at Wang Ju with admiration in his eyes. Some people in Goryeo also spread the word about Wang Ju's deeds. When they came to the Song Dynasty, they heard more about Wang Ju's deeds.  Wang Ju said: "Envoy Pu, your credential is vague, what is the Liaodong rebellion, and why thousands of soldiers attacked Kaizhou of the Liao Kingdom, can you tell me more carefully." Could it be that it has nothing to do with the Song people? Pu Yanshun's heart  Thinking of it, he explained the situation carefully.  "Does the Liao Kingdom often harass you?" "Yes." "The Liao Kingdom is too powerful. So these thousands of people have never been found?" "No." "Could it be a spontaneous act by the righteous men of your Koryo Kingdom?  "No, there are quite a few of them, thousands of them. If so many people left their homes, sneaked into the Jurchen Ministry, and then returned, they should be able to find out and bring them with them."  The captured armor is also better than our Korean armor. " "It's so weird I know what you are thinking. But I heard your Majesty tell you the situation, and I have a vague idea in my mind, but your Korean armor is better.  Our allies, I have to show you the proof, who are you coming?" Wang Ju called the guards outside the palace and gave them some instructions.  Several guards left quickly, and after a while they brought many weapons. Wang Ju said: "These are the weapons of our Song Dynasty. How are they different from your weapons of Goryeo?" The weapons of Goryeo and Japan were both developed from the weapons of Tang Dynasty.  Up, such as the Japanese sword.  Its model is actually the horizontal sword of the Tang Dynasty. The weapons of the Song Dynasty were naturally developed from the weapons of the Tang Dynasty. However, after Wang Ju's modification of military equipment, it was very different from the weapons of the Goryeo and Japanese countries.  But Park Yanshun didn¡¯t say anything, and the meaning was obvious. Although your Song Dynasty weapons are different from Goryeo weapons, you can imitate Goryeo weapons and use them to frame Goryeo.  Wang Ju looked at Pu Yanshun again: "Messenger Pu, you are very strong. I wonder if you can draw a strong bow that is one and a half stones?" "One stone and a half. You can pull it." "That's good," said Wang Ju General Pu Yanshun.  By the way, he walked outside the temple and saw a large wooden board in the distance. He took out a divine arm bow and said, "Kick it open. Shoot at that wooden board." Pu Yanshun followed Wang Ju's instructions and kicked the divine arm bow.  Then he gradually pulled it full with his hand, and then loosened his hand. The arrow made a sharp whistling sound and flew into the distance like lightning.  In the blink of an eye, it hit the wooden board, punching a big hole in the thick wooden board, and flew tenaciously for more than ten steps before landing on the ground.  "Messenger Park, measure how many steps there are." Park Yanshun was frightened by the power and range of the divine arm bow. He walked over step by step and said in surprise: "One hundred and fifty steps!" "This is just one hundred and fifty steps!"  The weakest God's Arm Bow, and the stronger God's Arm Bow. In addition to the God's Arm Bow, we also have Tiger Cannon, artillery, these more powerful weapons. If our Song Dynasty subverted the Liaodong Rebellion, why didn't we support these?  Sharp weapon. Or you may think that our Song Dynasty does not want to openly antagonize the Liao Kingdom, but I want to say one more thing. Now our Song Dynasty is not the original Song Dynasty. We destroyed Jiaozhi, destroyed Dali, and occupied the city.  The powerful Tubo was also captured in the blink of an eye. Do we, the Song Dynasty, need to be so afraid of the Liao Kingdom?" "But" "It's just what?" "That Sui coin" "That was made by our ancestors?"  Covenant, if the Liao Kingdom dares to break the peace, there will be no money left. This is my answer on behalf of Your Majesty. Are you afraid? We still have a proof. Are these weapons powerful? " " I can still do it tomorrow.  I will take you to see the Tiger Cannon, the Thunderbolt Bomb, and some other weapons, so that you can see their power with your own eyes.If you think that Goryeo is interested, I will arrange a fast ship to send you back to Goryeo quickly. You can then discuss with your king. We, the Song Dynasty, will sell you Goryeo as much as you want.  Do you understand what I mean?  We, the Song Dynasty, dared to openly hand over these weapons to you, Goryeo, to fight against the Liao Kingdom, and we also dared to hand over these weapons to the Jurchens openly, so why bother to imitate your Goryeo weapons and sell them to the Jurchens? How much lethality can your Goryeo weapons have, if those women  If the real person obtained these weapons from our country, wouldn't it make the Liao Kingdom even more embarrassed?  If I have done this in court and you still don't believe it, I will take you to the Ordnance Supervisor immediately to look at the account books of the manufacturing and outflow of armor. You can look through it to see if any relevant armor flows to Liaodong.  " This round of confusion finally confused Pu Yanshun. Wang Ju added: "Because your credential is not clear, so when I talked with His Majesty and the princes just now, I just made a rough guess, or it was you.  There were righteous people in Goryeo who saw the Liao Kingdom's repeated oppression, and the righteous deeds they felt were unjust, or they were secretly ordered by a country that everyone ignored.  " "That country?  " "Japanese slave country," Wang Ju said, and pursed his lips to the guard. After a while, the guard brought a Japanese sword. Wang Ju said: "Mr. Park, this is the sword produced by Japanese slave country. Look at the sharpness.  whether.  " It's a Japanese sword. And it was the best Japanese sword that Wang Ju had just asked Konoe to buy from the market. How could it not be sharp? It was at least dozens of times better than Goryeo weapons! Park Yanshun's eyes were confused and he murmured.  : "Japanese slave country?  " Wang Ju despises this group of sticks. If China hadn't rescued them several times, the Japanese would have been destroyed many times in history. However, these sticks are not only ungrateful, but they are the most repulsive to the Chinese! Not only do they all  They are a bunch of white-eyed wolves, and they are super shameless Of course. I can only keep this feeling in my heart, and he said: "We have technology to imitate, and Japan also has technology to imitate, and the quality may be better than yours, Korea.  " "Why do they do this?  " "The Japanese country is located on an island, and it is also an earthquake-prone area There are also huge volcanoes, and the living environment is relatively harsh, so they want to go ashore. Remember that during the Tang Dynasty, the Japanese country sent troops to invade Korea, but they were defeated by Liu Rengui, the general of the Tang Dynasty.  .  Then he retreated.  Now, no matter your Goryeo, our Song Dynasty, or the Liao Kingdom, they cannot reach the height of the Tang Dynasty.  However, the Japanese slave country has been resting and recuperating for so many years, and its national strength has become stronger and stronger. In recent years, a large number of gold and silver deposits have been discovered, and the country has become richer.  Therefore, I just speculated with you that if it was not done by the righteous people in Korea, then it must be the strategy of the Japanese country. This is called killing three birds with one stone.  Once used properly, our three countries will all turn against each other, and you, Koryo, will be the weakest and the smallest, and you will be the first to bear the brunt.  But it is also the closest to the Japanese country. When your Koryo country is retreating steadily, maybe the Liao Kingdom is at war with our Song Dynasty again, and the Japanese army can land from your Koryo country.  " Zhao servants and several prime ministers all knew the truth, but they were all dumbfounded Pu Yanshun was also stunned. He said: "Seriously?  " "It's not true.  There is another way for you to verify my speculation. Maybe these people have learned your Korean language, but I don¡¯t think so. Everyone has learned your Korean language, so there must be people who speak the Japanese language, and even after the Liao Kingdom was swept away, it is still possible.  You have captured some prisoners of war. After you go back, just ask your king to write a letter of credence asking for it. Of course, you can also blame me, the Song Dynasty, but in that case, your Goryeo will definitely lose one of its most important allies.  " After Wang Ju finished speaking, he said to a guard: "Take Messenger Park to the weapons supervisory account room and ask the officials in the weapons supervisory department to view all the account books for him.  " The guards took Pu Yanshun away. Wang Ju clapped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the problem is solved.  " Zhao Xu was speechless. Wang Ju said: "Your Majesty, the reason why Qin is strong is firstly Shang Yang's reforms. We cannot look at Sima Qian's evaluation. His evaluation is unfair. Shang Yang's contribution to Qin is unimaginable.  Second, several generations of kings have managed the affairs of the country with trepidation.  The third is not to live up to the name, slowly expand the territory bit by bit, and then have the strength to dominate the world.  The fourth is smart and cunning diplomacy, such as Zhang Yi's envoy to Chu.  The so-called history books are for future generations to learn from history. Qin's rapid demise should be worthy of reference for future generations, but how Qin stood out from dozens or hundreds of countries in the Spring and Autumn Period, and how it stood out from the seven Warring States Kingdoms is also worth learning from.  " "Actually, many principles are the same in the world. For example, the way of using troops is divided into seven points of righteousness and three parts of treachery. For example, the Confucian concept of inner saint and outer king is the same. The same is true for national diplomacy. It is only one-sided  When pursuing the so-called right path, we often end up falling behind, becoming pedantic and being taken advantage of by the enemy.  "But no matter how Wang Ju explains it, Zhao Xu still cannot accept this method of confusing right and wrong. But what should we do?"And I have to admit that doing this has brought many benefits to the Song Dynasty. At least the Liao Kingdom has lost a lot of vitality. Not only next year, but within four or five years, Xixia will not be peaceful, at least not for this long.  Time, the people would not recognize the Song Dynasty.  If the Liao Kingdom loses its vitality, it will gain more valuable time.  He waved his hand and said, "Wang Qing, let's not ask about Korea. Let's talk about next year's arrangements." Wang Ju would have to say it even if he didn't need to give orders.  Of course, this is just an arrangement. The specific marching plan or other strategies will also change as the situation changes, but the approximate marching route will not change much But as I said in advance, the army's marching route is not too big.  If there are any changes, the rear will not be suspicious, which is also very important. After all, there are so many troops, even if Li Shimin is alive, they will be somewhat uneasy.  After hearing this, Fan Chunren scratched his eyebrows and said, "Taobao, the plan is good, but does the court have so much money and silk?" Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about post-war immigration. After Xixia's maiming, many areas  The population is sparsely populated, and some areas have even become no-man's land. This is actually a good thing, as immigrants are welcome.  With the territory of Xixia, there are so many fertile lands, and Wang Ju also plans to forcibly disperse some of the Qiang people and settle them in the peripheral states, which is enough to easily accommodate 300,000 to 400,000 households.  Immigrants don¡¯t have to worry. Hedong Road is crowded with people and the land is tight. Not only Hedong Road, but also Shaanxi Road. Many areas on Shaanxi Road are sparsely populated due to the damage caused by the Expedition of Xia and Yongle City, but this is a peripheral area of ??Beijing.  The Zhaofu area, including Tongzhou, Huazhou, Yaozhou, Hezhongfu, and Fengxiangfu, is extremely densely populated. It¡¯s really no good. There is also Lizhou Road. With the stability of immigrants on Lizhou Road and the exchange of family letters, Lizhou Road is  Many extremely poor people are willing to migrate to the north.  In this way, the pressure brought by the dense population in these areas can be evacuated, and the proportion of Han people in the northwest may reach half, and even more and more in the future, and it will no longer become a barbarian place outside the Great Wall.  "However, we cannot follow Wang Mang's example of relocating people. Just to resettle so many immigrants, we don't know how much money it will cost."  If the Liao State sends troops and the two countries fight fiercely again, Wang Ju will feel comfortable fighting, but what will happen to the treasury?  What to do behind the scenes?  (To be continued.)
