Chapter 10 The Benefits of Flying

What would a literati look like when they get angry? Yun Zheng was very curious. The great scholar of a generation raised his head and asked the sky was absolutely breathtaking. Yun Zheng and Shi Zhongxin looked at each other and laughed at each other, and told the horse to speed up the train and go to the official hall as soon as possible.

When he arrived at the official office at the gate of the palace, he didn't see Ouyang Xiu. When Pang Ji saw Yun Zheng looking around and looking for someone, he groaned in his nostrils and expressed his dissatisfaction. Yun Zheng stepped forward and bowed, "Pang Xiang, what's wrong with Mr. Yong? I don't know anything if I stayed in my door these days."

Han Qi glanced at Qian Xie, who had a expressionless face, and said angrily: "After or later, the evil spirits and monsters destroy people's reputation, there will be retribution."

Qian Xie's flesh on his cheeks shook for a moment, closed his eyes and said nothing, as if he was listening to the sound of rain outside.

It seems that Qian Xie killed ten thousand enemies this time and lost three thousand. If the rumors were arranged, they could achieve a huge effect. If the operation was not done properly, it would be like Qian Xie. Not only Han Qi and Pang Ji were very angry at him, but even people like Yun Zheng were spontaneously far away from him. Whether it was good or bad people, they didn't like a despicable villain around him. Qian Xie's business was really disgusting. Whoever was involved had been bad for ten years.

The literati of the Song Dynasty valued morality and knowledge was second to the second. They had to hide when they went to brothels. This time, a woman admitted that she had an affair with her own words. This kind of thing that heaven knows the earth knows you and I knows is just a mouth. Ouyang Xiu had no way to start if he wanted to defend himself.

Pang Ji and Wen Yanbo seemed unwilling to let everyone focus on Ouyang Xiu's matter, and instead asked Yun Zheng: "Wen Xinhou, are you really planning to become a prefecture?"

Yun Zheng nodded and said, "I am Jingji Sixing. Pang Xiang also knew that what the Song Dynasty lacked was a horse shedding place. I tried my best to find a suitable pasture in Fengxiang Mansion. Now I have the opportunity to plan for a natural horse shedding place in Hehuang. Of course, I don't want to let go. The horse politics of the Song Dynasty have seriously hindered the development of cavalry."

Pang Ji nodded and said, "The people can only raise horses, but they cannot raise qualified war horses. Moreover, horse politics can be found from south to north. It is better for the people in the north, but for the people in the south, horse politics is indeed harmful to the people."

"That's the truth. As long as the land of Hehuang is taken over to my Song Dynasty, the horse government can be abolished. The land of Hehuang only needs to raise horses with peace of mind. Herders can raise horses with hundreds of horses and hundreds of people. The efficiency is comparable to that of small farmers in a single room. Letting the right people do the right things. Isn't it the duty of our officials?"

"You are a new nobleman, not a nobleman. You are not corrupt yet. You are an ambitious general. You want to leave a name in the history of the Song Dynasty. You want to become a famous general for all ages. We all know these, so you can discuss border matters with Mr. Di and formulate the most reasonable military strategy. As long as it is military affairs, you will naturally have a say, but you should not participate in the battles that belong to civil servants."

Originally, he was talking about his appointment in Junzhou, Pang Ji changed his voice and quickly said such a passage. Yun Zheng looked around and found that Han Qi, Wen Yanbo, Wang Anshi, Zeng Gongliang and others intentionally or unintentionally separated themselves from others, and made a space for him to talk to Pang Ji. The strangest thing was that Yun Zheng did not see Di Qing either.

"Oh, Pang Xiang, Xiaguan's wife suddenly felt uncomfortable this morning. Xiaguan was worried and was preparing to take leave to ask the imperial doctor. I wonder if it was possible?" Yun Zheng screamed in shock and hurriedly bowed his leave.

Pang Ji smiled and said, "I heard that Yunhou’s wife and Mrs. Ru are pregnant. Ru is abnormal today and is not good for people's health. Since Mrs. Yun is not in good health, then go home and have a look. The country and the world are in front of you!"

Yun Zheng smiled and nodded, and hurriedly bowed to the big bosses around him and left the official hall. He got on his carriage with a smile. He looked back before getting on the carriage. He saw the vermilion palace gate slowly opening. An old man stood in the rain and looked at the sky stubbornly, his face full of rain...

Yun Zheng got on the carriage and kicked the silly cow and monkey who were sleeping like pigs, so that they could free up a place for themselves to lie for a while.

"Young Master, have you finished your court now? How long have we been sleeping?"

"Stop talking nonsense, drive the car home. If you want to sleep, let's go home and sleep. Master, my business is done."

Hanniu laughed and got out of the carriage and sat in the driver's seat. He drove the carriage and walked slowly towards home.

"I stood on the city tower and watched the scenery. I heard the chaos outside the city, and the flags were waving and the scene was flirting, but it turned out to be a soldier sent by Sima." Yun Zheng leisurely played the beat and learned that Ma Lianliang was singing the empty city plan. The comfort in his heart was not to sing and could not express his feelings.

"I've sent someone to inquire, too

After inquiring about Sima, he led his troops and headed west

It's not that Ma Su has no talent for no plans

It was because the generals were in conflict and lost the street pavilion.

How lucky you have to be in three cities

Greedy and insatiable to take away my Xicheng

Zhuge is waiting for a horse in the enemy building

I waited for Sima to come here and talk to you..."

The monkey has never seen the young master so happy. Although the singing is not good and there is a sense of vicissitudes, the young master's mood is now very good, and he is very sure of this.

The carriage is walking through the pouring rain. The naive cow tries to make the carriage walk more steadily, so that the young master will not have a sheep sound when singing, which will be better for everyone.

A few days ago, the heavy rain overwhelmed the entire city of Bianliang. The people in the city were preparing to eat. Nowadays, few people burn firewood in Bianliang. Every household took out a honeycomb coal road from the house and lit it under the eaves. Light blue smoke filled the street market. Yun Zheng's carriage slowly drove out of the smoke on this vibrant street, which was very sensual.

Ouyang Xiu was unlucky, but he was the one who got the advantage. Things in this world are really impermanent. Yun Zheng heard at least two truths from Pang Ji's words. The first truth is that he can pick the army, and the civil servants no longer restrict their control over the army. He is the core of power in the Song Dynasty. The second truth is that he is likely to have to go to Qinzhou to replace Fu Bi and return the court. A moral benchmark like Ouyang Xiu was abolished, so he naturally had to find a powerful person to fill the gap. It seems that Ouyang Xiu still has to go to Chuzhou with endless grievances and anger.

But this is not bad. Ouyang Xiu did not go to Chuzhou, but went there to enjoy the grand article like "The Drunken Old Man's Pavilion".

"Di Gong, Duke Di!" As soon as he returned home, Yun Zheng rushed to the wooden house and shouted at Di Qing's house. Di Qing pushed open the window of the wooden house and held a book in his hand, and a wolf-skin mattress on his knees. His legs could not bear the cold wind and rainy days, and it was difficult to bear.

"What are you calling? Pang Ji has given you good things? It's just that Ouyang Xiu has suffered, and his great reputation has been destroyed."

"A scholar is romantic, what if..."

"Get out of here. If Ouyang Xiu could do such a thing as a piece of dust, the world would have no idea what dirty things would be like. Qian Xie would have been a slaughter this time. But he was also done, and there were such stupid people in the world who harmed others and did not benefit themselves."

"Hahaha, I also know that Uncle Ouyang Yong can't do such a thing, but his niece insisted on it. How do you tell him how to distinguish between the two people? I have discovered that the more virtuous a person is, the easier it is to deal with. People like Shi Zhongxin, even if you say that he digs out a grave and kicks the widow's door, everyone will laugh it off. This kind of thing has long been a big deal for him."

Di Qing shivered and looked at Yun Zheng and said seriously: "You are too sinister than Qian Xie. If you take care of this kind of thing, Uncle Ouyang Yong will definitely have no way to survive. Yun Zheng, promise me that if you plan to kill someone, it is best to kill him with one knife, and don't ruin anyone."

Yun Zheng smiled with a wet hair and said, "Yun Zheng has not been so despicable yet. Besides, I always feel that it is not worth it to be a big deal for the sake of the matter in the court. There are some good ways!"

Di Qing looked at the heavy rain outside the window and said: "I have only one hope, that is, when the country is in trouble, you can wear armor and hold sharp edges to fight on the battlefield, and when the border is stable, you can return home as if you are forgotten now. You can read with peace of mind, discuss military strategies with like-minded people, and wait for the country to be summoned again until the horse's corpse is wrapped!

The disputes in the court are getting less and less bottom line, and they are becoming more and more despicable. They say that carnivores are despised. This is right. Those adults’ thoughts are even more dirty than toilets. It may be very difficult to live a peaceful life in the future.”

Yun Zheng laughed and said, "The world is full of heroic spirit. Wang Anshi is determined to reform. Pang Ji and others are determined to reform the official system through the east wind of reform, but they handed over the redundant army to us. This is also a matter of the best use of everything. Everyone has their own things to be busy. Only in this way can people use their strength together.

Di Gong, what kind of benefits did Pang Ji promise you?"

Di Qing closed the book and laughed: "What I want now is that I will serve as the governor of Hejian soon and control the elite soldiers of Hejian and Daming Mansion. However, Pang Ji has one condition, that is, to only allocate 150,000 military expenditures to me, which is to force me to eliminate the weak and retain the strong in the army."

"This is easy to do. Since the Yellow River was redirected in the eighth year of Qingli, Daming Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture have a lot of free land, and they are all fertile land. Liangshanpo has a fertile land for thousands of miles, but there are no people. Only some thieves settle down in it. You only need to place the eliminated people in Liangshanpo. Those who farm when they are busy and fish when they are free. It is not difficult to survive, and it is easier than being a wing army."

Di Qing smiled and said, "You are much better than me in this regard. Please think about how to convert those wing troops into tax-paying people? The wing troops in Daming Mansion and Hejian Mansion are no less than 200,000. If something goes wrong, it will be a huge disaster."

Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "Since Pang Ji has thrown a big trouble to you, he can't stand by and watch, right? If you eliminated a battalion of Xiangjun, you will ask Pang Ji for an official. This official must be able to do things. I guess he has many such officials. I will formulate a development outline for you. As long as these people strictly arrange Xiangjun according to this kind of plan, there will never be any trouble." (To be continued...)
