Fan Chunren looked at Wang Ju, who was smiling. I, I, I Fan Chunren, who suddenly woke up, was very miserable at this moment. Fan Chunren had no choice but to say: "Taobao, peace is the most important thing." But he was also wondering in his heart, what Wang Ju said before, and other things, it was not that Lu Yijian was weak, even if he was weak, Lu Yijian could not be blamed entirely. At that time, the northwest was not without generals, but there were generals. After Zhang Kang won several great victories, he treated him coldly. Zhong Shiheng was placed on the border and had no place to use it. He only used one counterintuitive strategy. During the Battle of Haoshuichuan, Di Qing stayed in Jingzhou and sulked. It¡¯s not that there are no soldiers. Take a look at the performance of the Song Dynasty soldiers in Haoshuichuan and Sanchuankou. Especially in Haoshuichuan, everyone died in the battle and a few soldiers surrendered! The entire Song Dynasty was shrouded in the military. In fact Under the brilliance of these gentlemen, it seemed that the Song Dynasty had no soldiers and generals, and suffered repeated defeats. Under such circumstances, how could Lu Yijian be tough? ? After hearing this in-depth analysis, Zhao Xu kept sighing. But it also shows Wang Ju¡¯s rationality. Now that Fan Chunren is the second prime minister, he knows more. Wang Ju is not afraid of the Liao Kingdom, but his idea is that it is best not to provoke the Liao Kingdom in order to capture Xixia smoothly and easily. After taking Xixia, the Song Dynasty did not need to fight on both sides. Once it recovered, it no longer had to fear the Liao Kingdom. But before that, we can't be weak. The weaker we are, the Liao Kingdom will think that the Song Dynasty is easy to bully, but we can't be too tough. If it's too tough, the Liao Kingdom is also bloody, and accidents will happen, so although Wang Ju secretly Many arrangements were made, such as the replacement of many capable generals on the front line and the strategy of Goryeo and Liaodong. However, many concessions were made on the surface, such as this miscellaneous grain. ¡°But Wang Ju¡¯s performance today was a bit tough, too tough. But in front of so many ministers and envoys from the two countries, it was difficult for Fan Chunren to ask. "Peace is the most important thing, haha, then peace is the most important thing." Wang Ju said, sat down and didn't speak anymore, which made Fan Chunren even more depressed. ¡¡¡¡ Several prime ministers came to the Yanhe Hall Biandian one after another, which is where Zhao Xu often convened a few ministers to discuss matters. But the time is a bit wrong, it¡¯s the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. They entered the palace and saw a person, Wang Ju. "Everyone, please sit down," Zhao Xu said. Everyone sat down one after another, and Zhao Xu gestured to Wang Ju with his eyes. Wang Ju stood up and said: "Your Majesty, gentlemen, last year I took His Highness out and was discovered by the people, which led to many impeachments. According to the system, this is wrong, but my starting point was good." He told the whole story of that day. He said it again, of course, Wang Ju did not want Zhao servant to appoint Zai to train a "big general" that day, but used this living example to tell Zhao servant that the bigger the dream, the more difficult it is to realize it. This is just As for a general, how much effort does he have to put in if he wants to be a good emperor? But that's not what Wang Ju said. After speaking, Wang Ju said: "Actually, another word for ambitious is to aim high, and another word for contentment is not to make progress But the two are different. Just like me If you are afraid of trouble and stay on the other side without coming back, it is not called contentment, but it is called not wanting to make progress. Or if Zhao Kuo thinks that his talent is better than Lian Po, then he is too ambitious." Wang Ju said it later. A little arrogant, but with his current actions, no one would reject him. "The difference is that you must clearly recognize your own talents, and then give yourself a reasonable position. Those with low talents can stay in their own place. This is the true contentment. Those who are talented and have a bright master must take the initiative to show their talents. , This is the true ambition. " "The problem is that it is difficult to recognize others clearly. Even if you have Zhuge Liang's talent, it is more difficult to recognize yourself than others! Now, when it comes to the country, it will be even more difficult to identify the country¡¯s strengths and weaknesses when you are inside the situation.¡± ¡°Know yourself and your enemy?¡± Fan Chunren asked. "Absolutely. In fact, there are many ways to achieve the same goal. No matter what school or religion, in the end, they are basically the same. For example, the true mean in Confucianism, the Yao Bian in the Book of Changes, and the fish points in the Taoist Tai Chi diagram are all described The principle is the same, that is, adjustments must be made in time according to different situations, otherwise as the environment and time develop, no matter how good the law is, it will deteriorate. However, this adjustment to the times is difficult and difficult, so it is still necessary to use it. Zhuge Liang used an analogy to say that his repeated Northern Expeditions were unsuccessful, which was also a manifestation of his failure to fully understand the strength of Wei and Shu.?There are not many ministers who truly understand the situation of the country. These people have become good ministers through the ages. " There are still some, like Zhang Liang, who suggested that Liu Bang make a three-chapter agreement. Zhuge Liang and Long Zhong are also considered half. Zhu Sheng suggested to Zhu Yuanzhang that he should build high walls, accumulate grain widely, and delay becoming king. But there are too few such ministers. "This is the first difficulty. There is another more difficult level next, which is to recognize it and how to correct it! " "Your Majesty, gentlemen, I have thought about the strengths and weaknesses of our dynasty without overestimating my capabilities. The strengths are wealth and stability, and there are three shortcomings. The biggest shortcoming is the military. Although we have captured Dali, Jiaozhi and Hehuang, and then Xixia, we cannot do it as a rule, because these countries are far from being comparable to our country. As long as we use the right strategy, we can win. Take it. But compared with the Liao Kingdom, which was of equal strength, I didn't have much confidence. What if it were changed to the Han and Tang Dynasties? " "Aren't our soldiers brave? Can't I keep up with the logistics? Isn't my imperial weapon and armor of good quality? Could it be that our country is sparsely populated and lacks soldiers? no! In other words, there is a lack of horses, but this problem will also be solved! The real reason is overkill. " "The ancestors were very wise and created a system called the separation of military and political affairs. From then on, there will no longer be warlords who disrupt the government and usurp the country. However, this system refers to letting civil servants be in charge of economic and government affairs, rather than letting civil servants control the army and lead the troops in battle. Let's look at the time of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong. The commander-in-chief had several civil servants. This is the truth why after the disastrous defeat at Qigou Pass, our dynasty did not decline, but instead defeated the Liao Kingdom many times! " "But now, not only that, as long as they make military exploits, they will be repeatedly slandered by the scholar-bureaucrats, starting from Di Qing, then Wang Shao, and then me. Even if the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, the rabbit is not dead yet! " "In fact, as long as government affairs and the economy are in the hands of civil servants, what can military generals do to disrupt government and usurp the country? There are specialties in martial arts. How many Confucian generals have been produced in ancient times and modern times? " "The Taibao, the five generals who conquered Xia are all generals. "Li Qingchen said. "Li Gong, who is the commander-in-chief! "Wang Ju shouted and asked. "General, Gao Zunyu!" The scholar-bureaucrats mentioned by Wang Ju actually include relatives and powerful people. There are powerful relatives, such as Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, but they are indeed powerful, and they were promoted step by step by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The superior. I asked Gao Zunyu what amazing performance he had. Especially Xu Xi in the Battle of Yongle City, and Fan Zhongyan was just an equal in the Qingli War. However, this equalization was only established on the basis of the astonishing expenditure of money from the rear. Li Qingchen was speechless. "The second is the population crisis. As a unified dynasty, our dynasty has the smallest area. Even now, our dynasty is still smaller than the Western Jin Dynasty, unless the other side is included, but it has the largest number of people, and it continues to grow at an alarming rate. Expanding. Don't count on the other side. The other side's capabilities are limited, and only the eastern region can be transferred. It's impossible to transfer people from the western region to the other side. " "The population crisis has brought about another crisis, annexation! " "In fact, our ancestors have already implemented targeted measures to stop the merger system, such as levying heavy taxes on wealthy households, forced apportionment, and prohibiting the children of powerful people from taking imperial examinations. However, our ancestors were soft-hearted. Although they knew the harm of mergers, they wanted to treat the meritorious officials well, so they did not do it thoroughly. " "For example, if you want to build a house, if you want the house to be strong, you must have a solid foundation. This foundation is the people at the grassroots level. But what now? " "If a country wants to be stable, it must have one large, one middle, and one small. In, the country also. The country must maintain good finances so that they can be used for military defense, disaster relief, and people's livelihood. However, it is enough to maintain a balance or a slight surplus, and not to focus on the people. Moreover, these funds are not used for the squandering of the royal family or the extravagance and waste of the scholar-officials and nobles. They must be used for the country and the people! " "As for the dignitaries and scholar-bureaucrats, it is enough for them to be richer than ordinary people. However, it is necessary to ensure that all people have enough food and clothing. This is the basis for a country's stability. Otherwise, the uprisings of the past dynasties will still happen in our dynasty. " "What does it mean to rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats? Wrong, Wen Gong refers to sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats. As for ordinary people, they are just ordinary people. That's why Sima Guang was disgusted with the peddlers and lackeys wearing socks. In fact, if all the traffickers and common people have money to wear silk socks and new clothes, can have houses that are protected from the wind and rain, and can have three meals a day without worrying about it, then it will be called a great country. " "However, when I was prime minister, I made so many compromises on these three current shortcomings, which still made many people resentful. " "Your Majesty, gentlemen, especially when it comes to the economy, I believe that no one can have my ingenuity for the time being. "Many people still disagree with what Wang Ju said. For example, what Wang Ju said about one large school, one middle school and one small school is actuallyIt's a pyramid. "However, in the minds of others, it is not the pyramid he said, but the royal family is the largest, followed by the scholar-bureaucrats, relatives and dignitaries, and then the squires and ordinary people everywhere. It would be better if they are not allowed to starve to death on a large scale. Or, to put it another way, it is the ancient three-tier system. Generally, the decrees of the imperial court are issued to the officials of each county, and then the officials of each county convey it to the squires of various places. The court, local officials, and the squires of various places, that is, the model of officials and squires co-ruling the world. Another example is annexation. Merger is indeed a problem, but compared to previous dynasties, the Song Dynasty was pretty good. At least the Tang Dynasty was gone. Even the side households in Sichuan disappeared instantly with the uprising of Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun. . Or there are some barbarian areas on Kuixia Road, but these areas were not fully governed by the previous dynasties. However, everyone recognizes Wang Ju¡¯s economic contribution. Although Wang Ju went down, the economy of the Song Dynasty was still good for more than a year. However, it was only on the basis of Xiao Gui and Cao Sui that the economy continued to develop. But Wang Ju will leave the Song Dynasty soon. How long can this momentum be maintained? And this is Wang Ju¡¯s strategy, which is to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. Why does Wang Ju repeatedly talk about this merger? In fact, this is also Wang Ju's personal experience in his two lives. For example, in the 1970s, many people's lives became increasingly difficult, just like Wang Ju himself. In the early 1980s, he began to remember things, but at that time his family still could not Keep enough food and clothing, and you won¡¯t see meat or fish a few times a year. Later, with the reform and opening up, life became better and better. But why are some people ungrateful and why are there so many Mao Zuo? It¡¯s not just money that comes first and moral decay. That's just the surface. Look at how the people behave when a major disaster strikes the country. Morality still exists in the hearts of the people! Maybe no one dares to help the old man when he falls on the road, but at least 60% of the people really want to help him! The real reason is the disguised annexation, which has caused extreme polarization. If nothing else, just one house makes it difficult for many poor people to breathe. Without happiness, it would be worse than the 1970s. At least everyone was as poor! However, this problem was not a big problem in the past life. At least the changes brought about by science and technology prevented most people from starving to death and freezing to death. However, given the low productivity of the Song Dynasty, if mergers became more and more serious, people would starve to death and freeze to death. . Or in the 1970s, when polarization was extremely polarized, what would be the consequences? If the annexation trend is not stopped and continues to spread, even if the Jin people do not go south, a serious crisis will break out within the Song Dynasty. " However, Wang Ju couldn't find a good way to solve it, and he said it many times, so he quickly changed the topic. "So you guys have to work hard, but I'm talking about another thing. Mr. Fan, did I behave inappropriately at the Tiangong banquet yesterday?" "Uh" Fan Chunren didn't know how to answer. On that day, Wang Ju was inexplicably tough at first, and then he was inexplicably silent. Wang Ju was silent. Facing the powerful Liao Kingdom, who dared to speak out, so some verbal agreements were successfully formed. . Afterwards, the envoys from the two countries returned. "There is a reason for me to do this, Mr. Fan. The main purpose of all my arrangements is to capture Xixia smoothly and easily. Even now that I have captured the Huangzhou area, I don't want Ali Gu's betrayal to happen, because in the At that time, many variables were undoubtedly added, which forced me to modify the battle plan. " "Xixia suffered successive defeats, and because of the Helan Stone, the Xixia economy and people's livelihood were even worse. It was inevitable that the Liao Kingdom sent envoys to mediate. To further confuse the Liao State, I proposed to Your Majesty that we should first agree to negotiate a truce. However, given this advantage, if we take the initiative to agree to negotiate a peace, would you be suspicious? " "The Taibao said" "Mr. Fan, I will. Deliberately saying that we will fight Yanyun and take back all the Great Wall is too tough. The opponent is Liao after all, so there will be objections But I don't blame you. If you are not prepared, you will go to war with Liao and Xia. , the consequences are indeed serious. Even if we are prepared to go to war with Liao and Xia at the same time, the outcome is unknown. " "As long as you have no objections to me, Mr. Fan, then there will be others. I can remain silent. Mr. Fan, do you understand what I mean? It is precisely this that will give the envoys of Liao and Xia the wrong impression. Our sudden peace and truce means that there is another serious problem within our country. , otherwise they would not stop conquering Xia." With this illusion, the Xixia people would feel lucky, and the Liao Kingdom would despise it. Then a few months later, when spring officially begins to bloom in the northwest, the Song Dynasty suddenly sends troops to Xixia. Xixia can be captured in a short period of time. Having captured Xixia, the Song Dynasty would not be afraid even if the Liao Kingdom sent troops. "So that's it" Fan Chunren murmured, feeling that he was being used as a gun by Wang Ju. "Fan Gong, don't blame me. Likewise, I feel very proud deep in my heart. It is impossible to attack without a plan. But my plan is for the outside world, not for the inside. On the contrary, some people are weak towards the outside world. , but they are very cruel internally. In order to destroy me, the Xixia people sent scouts to spread the prophecy at the border. Zian's achievements are better than those of Ji Nu, and they can break through Helan. You all know this. , I will open a gap from this prophecy in the future. However, recently, another prophecy came out in the capital, one earth will cover the sky, Sima Wuzhi! " One earth is undoubtedly a king, it will cover the sky, for sure. Big for sure. Sima is not Sima, but the leader of the Zhao family. Together, it would be very interesting. Chapter 842: Marriage Prophecy, or prophecy, or prophecy, was too powerful in ancient times. Where did it come from? The exact time is that it sprouted in the Western Han Dynasty, and the founder was Dong Zhongshu. Did heaven and man sense it? Therefore, there will be some weird lingo and prophecies, indicating good and bad luck, such as some fragments in "Zuo Zhuan", Ji's death and Lu Buchang The background is that Dong Zhongshu suggested abolishing hundreds of schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone. However, this required the support of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Confucianism alone was not enough. Therefore, Dong Zhongshu introduced the theory of prophecy to satisfy the rule of the Han Dynasty. legitimacy and rationality. "After the return of the Zhou and Qin Dynasties, the seal script legacy gradually mixed with Confucianism and Taoism. Those who entered Taoism became Fu seal script, and those who entered Confucianism became prophecy seal script. Dong and Liu Daru, who talked about disasters and disasters, were actually prophecy seal scripts." It was created by Confucianism. The stuff! So from this point on, Confucianism is no longer true Confucianism. The so-called prophecy means verification. There is a book that proves the prediction. The book published by Heluo says prophecy. This is the explanation given in "Shuowen Jiezi". So what is the latitude? It is not the latitude of the earth's longitude and latitude, but the latitude of the latitude book, which is to use theology to attach Confucianism books. Think about what Confucius said, respect ghosts and gods and stay away! Then we arrived at Wang Mang. Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty and was afraid that the world would not follow him, so he pretended to rely on the old rules of Yao and Shun's abdication and said that he was "the successor to the order." Meng Tong, the martial arts chief, saw the opportunity and said that I had obtained a white stone from the dredging well, with the inscription on it: Report to Anhan Gong Mang was the emperor. ???????? Later, a small pavilion chief in Qi County said that he dreamed that Heavenly God sent an envoy to tell him that it was true that he was the emperor. Wang Mang told the Queen Mother and based on this request, he asked to remove the word "she" and only call him emperor in front of his subjects, and changed it to the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. There are more and more following. In fact, this was a sign of guilty conscience, not only by Wang Mang, but also by Wu Zetian At this time, Chen Wei's statement was officially completed. The prophecy made by Wang Mang and some Xiaoxiao was almost a joke, but a very important prophecy appeared later: Liu Xiu will be the emperor! How did this come about? According to "Zi Zhi Tong Jian": (Liu) Qin married Fan Zhong's daughter from Huyang and gave birth to three sons: Yan, Zhong and Xiu. The brothers were orphaned early and were raised by their uncle Liang. The actor is resolute, generous and responsible, he is reckless and usurper, often angry, cares about the restoration of the country, does not care about his family and career, he goes bankrupt, and makes friends with the world's heroes. Xiulong's quasi-sun angle, his nature is diligent in farming. He is very good at acting, compared to his brothers Gaozu. Xiu's sister Yuan was the wife of Deng Chen in Xinye. Xiuchang and Chen were married to Cai Shaogong. The Shaogong learned a lot about prophecies and said, "Liu Xiu should be the emperor." Or he said: "This is Liu Xiuhu, the Grand Master of the country." Xiu Xi said: "What's the use of knowing but not being a servant?" Everyone sitting there laughed, and they were only happy in the morning. Li Shou, a native of Wan, was good at horoscopes and prophecies, and was the minister of Mang Zong. Tong said to his son Tong: "The Liu family will be in power, and the Li family will be the assistant." When the Xinshi and Pinglin troops rose up, and Nanyang was in turmoil, Tong's younger brother Yi said to Tong: "Now that the four directions are in turmoil, the Han Dynasty will be revived. The Nanyang clan, Liu Boxheng, the only brother, loves everyone and can plan great things with him. "Tong smiled and said, "That's what I want!" He would sell grain to Wan for a show. Tong sent Yi to meet the show and meet him. Because he had prophecies about literary affairs, he was able to meet him. Make an appointment and make plans. Later generations thought it was true, but Wang Ju thought Sima Guang's record was a bit far-fetched. Why? Because of Liu Xiu¡¯s situation at that time. " Many people in later generations said that Taizu was of low origin. It is true that Taizu was not of high origin, but there were still people with worse backgrounds than Taizu, especially Zhu Yuanzhang. Liu Bang's background was just that, and Liu Xiu was also very bad. Liu Xiu is the ninth grandson of Liu Bang. King Liu of Changsha in the Western Han Dynasty gave birth to Liu Mai, the title of Chung Fu Festival. Liu Mai's title was inherited by his son Liu Xiongqu. His other son Liu Wai served as the prefect of Yulin. Liu Hui, Liu Wai's son, became the emperor. Lu Duwei, Liu Hui's son Liu Qin, was the Nandun order. Liu Qin died early, and the three Liu Xiu brothers were raised by their uncle Liu Liang. By this time, the three brothers of the Liu family must have very little property. In ancient times, the eldest son inherited the family property, so it was Liu Xiu's turn to have even less. That's why Liu Xiu's situation as a young man appeared. According to historical records, he was "hardworking in farming" and liked to work?It is estimated that his family does not have much land, but he has great ambitions, so he has to study literature and practice martial arts, which must cost money. He must also marry a wife and have children, which must cost money. He has no choice but to do the farm work himself. He also put down his self-esteem during the off-season and became a small grain vendor to earn more money. His eldest brother Liu Yan often made fun of him because of his status as a small businessman in ancient times. At this time, Liu Xiu, how could he see the emperor's appearance? Therefore, this prophecy may really be related to another Liu Xiu, that is, the national preceptor Liu Xiu in the records of Zi Zhi. This Liu Xiu is very famous. He is the son of Guanglu doctor and university scholar Liu Xiang, whose original name is Liu Xin , I am also a scholar. He had a good relationship with Wang Mang in his early years. Later, due to various reasons, he was forced to prepare to kill Wang Mang and commit suicide after the incident was revealed. But what exactly happened is not clear to future generations because the historical records are confusing, or many of them were not written down. But no matter what, this Liu Xiu really became the emperor of the unification of the world, and became almost the most perfect emperor among all the founding emperors of the great unification. As for Li Shou, who had deduced the eagle's language, he was an official in the capital. Li Tong rebelled in Nanyang. After Li Shou learned about it, he took the initiative to see Wang Mang and asked for leniency. As a result, his entire family was executed. Instead, Li Tong later became the founding hero of the Eastern Han Dynasty. , Da Sikong, so there are too many mysteries. Then Li Shimin came. It is said that when Li Shimin was four years old, an alchemist visited Li Yuan. When he saw Li Shimin, he said that Li Shimin had the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, and that according to the sky and the sun, he would be able to help the world and bring peace to the people. Li Yuan was afraid that the judgment would be leaked, so he sent people to hunt him down, but no one was found. Wang Ju also didn¡¯t believe that this was true, because Li Yuan had been preparing to hand over the country to his eldest son for a long time, and this was how the Xuanwu Sect changed. Mainly because of the prophecy at the end, eighteen sons will win the world. After Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty heard about it, he began to investigate. Ordinary Lis did not need to worry, but there were three Lis. One was Li Mi, the great-grandson of Li Bi of the Eight Pillars Kingdom, but Li Mi was on the run at that time, and the other was Li Yuan, the grandson of Li Hu. , is also a relative of Yang Guang, and is serving as an official in Shanxi. However, Li Yuan kept a low profile and may have used some tricks to escape the disaster. The third is Li Yuan's grandson Li Min, who is also Yang Guang's nephew and son-in-law, and Li Min is in The power in the court was very strong, so soon all thirty-two members of the Li family were executed, and the rest were exiled to Lingnan. There are many examples, such as Zhao Kuangyin¡¯s inspection as the emperor. Li Chunfeng's "After three generations of the Tang Dynasty, there was a female protagonist, King Wu". "Hu Ye is the one who destroyed Qin" in the Qin Dynasty, "Although Chu has three households, Chu will definitely destroy Qin". Therefore, when it comes to this thing, the attitude of rulers in the past is only twelve words: I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go! But it cannot be said that it is easy to use. In fact, in ancient and modern times, few people have used this trick to deal with political opponents. Not to mention Wang Mang, the Wang family and the Queen Mother had already controlled the government at that time. As for what Cao Cao, Liu Yu, and Zhao Kuangyin said, it had no effect. Instead, they accelerated the replacement of the dynasty. ??Or Qin Hui, Cai Jing and others, saying that it is possible for them to monopolize power and cause chaos in the country, but can we say that they have the opportunity to change the dynasty? Therefore, if you say it, no one will believe it, and in turn, they will usher in crazy revenge. "However, when it comes to Wang Ju, everything seems to be in place" The faces of several big bosses were gloomy, and even Fan Chunren felt a little disgusted deep in his heart. Not for anything else, but for the present. If Wang Ju captures Xixia, stabilizes Xixia, refuses to leave, and uses this prophecy to force Wang Ju away, it is still a matter of words. Guan Jian At present, Xixia has not been pacified yet, and the Liao Kingdom is paying attention again! So everyone looked at Zhao Xu. Zhao Xu¡¯s expression was very solemn. It was obvious that Wang Ju had already spoken before he entered the palace just now and that he was mentally prepared. However, Zhao Xu¡¯s heart was equally complicated. When Wang Ju entered the palace earlier, he didn¡¯t talk about this at first, but about his son¡¯s marriage. Zhao Tianci was getting older, so Wang Ju wanted to choose a daughter-in-law from among the women in the clan. Zhao Xu was overjoyed. "Zhao Xu's mood was equally complicated for Bi'an. He was reluctant to give up. Let alone such a large territory, let's talk about Bi'an's help to the Song Dynasty. Zhao Xu could not ignore it and completely leave it. But it seems impossible to have jurisdiction. First of all, it¡¯s the officials. Not to mention the sea, which is thousands of miles away, let¡¯s just talk about Qiongzhou Island. No officials are willing to go there. Maybe, but it's definitely very few. There are just a few dozen officials who are not afraid of danger and are willing to serve the court. But can these dozens of officials control the other side? In fact, there is a deeper reason, which is the idea of ??officialdom in ancient China. If you become an official, you will have beautiful women, cars, mansions, money and food. With this kind of thinking, how many officials will be willing to endure hardship? Looking back at Europe a few hundred years later, theyWith a small population, it is impossible to be like Wang Ju, who can easily move millions of people and turn a foreign place into an area dominated by the same ethnic group. Even if it is done in America, there are English and Irish people. , Franks, Germans, Italians, Portuguese, Spanish Therefore, there are immigrants, but they cannot unite, so there is American soil. But even in this situation, the West once controlled most of the world, and even the Qing Kingdom became their semi-colony. However, despite Wang Ju¡¯s great ability, he could not change the ranking of scholars, farmers, industry and merchants in the Song Dynasty. So Zhao Xu saw it, but it was an unsolvable problem. With few officials sent, we have to face a second difficulty. The method of ruling the country in the Song Dynasty was similar to that of the previous dynasties. It was still the model of officials and gentry co-governing the country. ????????? Officials only reach the county level, where the head of the household is a squire, and the subordinate officials in the county are also squires and powerful. Some people say that Song Jiang is not a squire. He is indeed not a squire, a big landowner, or a businessman, but he is strong! Therefore, some officials are weak in ability and are often ignored by the powerful local gentry. But this kind of excuse is limited. At least in the general direction, these powerful gentry people dare not go against the court, otherwise they will face strong suppression by the state machinery. Therefore, this model ensures the stability of the country in the general aspect. But can the state machine control the powerful country gentry on the other side? So some officials went there, and every year the other side released some cities and made them states of the Song Dynasty, but these officials were never able to control the other side states. Zhao Xu thought about it for a long time, and finally gave the other side a position, that is, as a super-large Jisi area, just like the Hezhong area in the Tang Dynasty. "Then there is Wang Ju. Wang Ju will leave in the future. Zhao Xu is still a little reluctant to let go of this. But ask yourself, if Wang Ju really doesn't leave, he will feel relieved when he is here, but once he is in bad health, can he feel relieved? Or just like our ancestors, have a glass of wine to release military power. Well, not only to release military power, but also to release political power, so that Wang Ju can completely take care of his old age. But even so, Zhao Xu may not be relieved. Compared with Wang Ju, Shi Shouxin and the others were extremely weak! To compare, compare Sima Yi and Wang Ju. Thinking about it this way, Wang Ju going to the other side is the best ending, and it creates a good story between the king and his ministers. So will Wang Ju become king if he goes to the other side? Wang Ju had said vaguely several times that he would not be able to become king. Zhao Xu thought for a long time and thought that Wang Ju would not be able to become king. Maybe Wang Ju is kind to these sea guests and has certain binding force. Some of the systems on the other side were even formulated by Wang Ju, but these sea guests may not agree with Wang Ju becoming a king with the power of life and death! Therefore, Zhao Xu positioned Wang Ju as an invisible king with high prestige, not an open king. The future positioning of the other side may be like that in Hezhong. Although the Tang Dynasty is the main force, they may be independent in their own affairs, a loose alliance! And the area on the other side is too large, and it is separated by seas, especially the two huge continents on the farthest side. Most of his ideas were right, but many of them were wrong. The reason why Wang Ju did not sincerely hand over the other side to the Song Dynasty was that the other side's system was more advanced, and it was impossible for Wang Ju to let the backward system replace the advanced system. Second, this is the vast ocean that Zhao Xu thought of. With the current technological power, it is impossible for anyone to unify such a large area. What is even more fatal are two completely different systems. But Wang Ju did not cut off the other side. Instead, he wanted to wait to see whether a country with a more advanced system could emerge in the Central Plains under the influence of the other side in the future. The second was to wait for the rapid development of scientific and technological power. But I don¡¯t know how many years it will take. Wang Ju's thoughts have nothing to do with Zhao Xu's thoughts, but precisely because of Zhao Xu's thoughts, he still hopes that Wang Ju will continue to maintain a close relationship with the Song Dynasty after going to the other side, so that the wealth and vast territory of the other side will continue to be It can be beneficial to the Song Dynasty. So what is closeness? ??Isn¡¯t this marriage with the clan the best way to stay close? "One is the son of an aunt, and the other is a daughter of the clan. It is difficult not to miss the Song Dynasty. So Zhao Xu immediately agreed. It happened that his younger brother had many daughters and was worried about the dowry. The fifth daughter was not married and she was pretty. But Wang Ju immediately shook his head and said, I have taken good care of him. She is not the daughter of Zhao Hao, but the great-granddaughter of another clan woman, the "Eight Wise King" Zhao Yuanyan. Zhao Yuanyan had a high prestige during the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty and had thirteen sons. Except for Yunxi, Yunliang, Yundi, and Yunchu, all of them died early.

It is said that this person is very incompetent.Even his wife Qian couldn't stand it anymore and reported it to the court. Song Renzong decreed that he was demoted to the general of Youjianmen and refused to give him a court visit. His wife Qian was disappointed. , became a female Taoist priest. That has nothing to do with Wang Ju, and Zhao Yundi has been dead for a long time. The reason why this girl was chosen may be because of her grandfather's behavior. This lineage gradually declined, but this girl is very sensible, her appearance is also delicate, and her age is suitable. Zhao Xu was hesitant. In the Song Dynasty, princesses were just that. Besides, she was the granddaughter of Zhao Yundi, not even a county princess! Wang Ju told the prophecy. Of course, Wang Ju has gone to the other side. No matter what prophecies are spread, it doesn't matter. Guan Jian and Wang Ju can't go to the other side now.

The big bosses don¡¯t know the inside story of the marriage for the time being, but they all know the big deal. What impact will one have to have a soil in this time? They all recognized Wang Ju's contribution, but Wang Ju was a very stingy and difficult to deal with. With this kind of earth covering the sky, Wang Ju will feel very uncomfortable after going to the northwest, and it will be difficult to move even an inch.
