Chapter 498 The world is different from different angles
Zhao Tingmei got in the car and walked a little further away. She saw the new wall of Luoyang City from afar. Zhao Dezhao was shocked for a long time and couldn't speak.
"You see, this is the castle city. Luoyang is already in danger of the world. Now, there is this castle again. As long as the city has sufficient food and grass, it can protect the city for ten years. This city can be said to be the foundation of my century-old Song Dynasty. The official family, move the capital."
Zhao Dezhao opened his mouth and said, "Uncle San is indeed a good method. To be honest, I have decided to move the capital on the way to come. As soon as I returned to Kaifeng, the prefecture will start to handle this matter soon."
"In this way, the blessing of the Song Dynasty and the blessing of the world."
"Uncle San, according to the Golden Chamber Alliance, the throne should be yours. My nephew was put on the front line at that time and could not refuse. If Uncle San was willing..."
Zhao Tingmei interrupted, "Zhao'er, you used this to test me, but you're a little bit out of sight. I went out of the city to greet you for thirty miles. Isn't it sincerity? The so-called Golden Chamber Alliance was originally nonsense, and you have always known me that I am a playboy. To be honest, I have no interest in that position. My second brother did some things at the time, and even my elder brother died inexplicably. In order to protect himself, he was very obedient to the command and not the announcement. Now that you have become an official, as long as you let me enjoy wealth and leisure, why should I make things difficult for you? Zhao'er, I'm given all this by my elder brother now, and the reason why I gave it to me is to give you these things!"
"Uncle San, are you really not interested in the position of Ninth Five?"
"No. Don't you believe it if others don't believe it? You've made me a little disappointed with you."
Zhao Dezhao hurriedly said, "Uncle San atones, it's really a big change this year. I... I'm not very clear-headed. How could I not trust Uncle San?"
Zhao Tingmei also said: "Yes, it has been a turbulent time for more than a year. My Song Dynasty is now suffering from internal and external troubles. Our uncle and nephew cannot be suspicious of each other no matter what. We must work together to overcome difficulties. Otherwise, the great country that our elder brother has built will inevitably be snatched away by outsiders."
"I would like to ask my third uncle for advice, what are internal and external troubles?"
"Is there any external trouble? One is the Khitan. There is nothing to say about this. It has been fought for hundreds of years since the time of Wuzhou. The other is the governors of each town. They are all long-standing generals on the battlefield. My elder brother can naturally suppress him. But Zhaoer, your prestige is really too shallow. It's okay for others. For example, the key places like Zhaoyi Army and Tianxiong Army, remember not to hurry. Second brother is your lesson."
"I understand that I can't let them be as hereditary as the late Tang Dynasty."
"Yes, so although external troubles are dangerous, they are not a big problem. In comparison, internal troubles are the blade of the neck hanging."
"Uncle San thought, what is the internal problem?"
"Cao Bin, Zhao Pu, Sun Chunming."
"Oh? How are these... internal troubles?"
"Let me talk about Zhao Pu first. This person actually has nothing to say. For more than ten years, he has covered the sky with his hands and occupied the court. He is his disciples and his scheming and means the world is the best. His second brother could not fight him back then. If he didn't abandon him now, would he push me up and fight him? I can't fight him, and I'm not willing to get involved in such troubles. What's more, he has also taken out something like the Golden Chamber Alliance, and his heart is punishable. Therefore, this person must be dismissed from office and seized his post. I hope he will be sensible and will not hurt the friendship between our family and him for many years. But this person is best to solve, and we will join forces, and Cao Bin must also stand on our side, directly using the power of ten thousand pounds to break the tricks. I don't know how to make any waves."
"I heard what Uncle San said, and it turned out to be enlightened."
"Besides, Cao Bin, this is actually a big trouble for my Song Dynasty. He was already a prime minister and had been in charge of the Military Commission. He participated in the formation of the new army in Kaifeng. Now he has made great contributions to support him. The prestige in the army is extraordinary. After Zhao Pu left, he must be a powerful minister. No one in the Privy Council can compete with him. He is not afraid of his yellow robe. It is just a major matter of the country. How can he be completely slaughtered by the war? What if his ambitions expand in the future?"
"That third uncle thought, how should Cao Bin treat it?"
"It's not difficult. The Privy Councilor is just a civil servant after all. He only has the power to dispatch troops but no power to command troops. Moreover, he is not a minister of the eldest brother's dominance, and he is not as deep as Zhao Pu's foundation. To deal with him, you just need to start with the general. Cui Yanjin is older than him and his ability is not less capable than him. He may not be so convinced by him. As long as he finds a way to make the generals of the army convince you, he can use it as a military governor, just like Shi Shouxin, let him stay in his old age and wait for death."
Zhao Dezhao nodded in agreement after hearing this and asked, "Where is Sun Chunming."
Zhao Tingmei smiled bitterly, and even he pinched his eyebrows and said with a sad look on his face: "Sun Chunming, alas, it seems that his power is the smallest of the three, but in fact it is the most difficult one to deal with. Luoyang, all the gentry and civilians, are thinking about his good things. After moving the capital, he is really the most powerful minister who is too big to lose. He holds the entire imperial court's money bag in one hand. You don't know yet. He is no longer in the hands of the Three Divisions, but in the fuck. It's useless for anyone to be the Three Divisions. Even if he is a civilian, he can still put the Three Divisions in three days, and even have his son to control the Tianxiong Army outside. Who came up with this idea? Why did he leave Sun Yue outside? He gave such a large army? Now the father and son are on the side of the other, one is in charge of the money and the other is in charge of the army, and they complement each other. Which one do you dare to move? How did you think about it?"
Zhao Dezhao looked embarrassed when he heard this. He couldn't say that it was you who wouldn't let Sun Yue come back.
Zhao Tingmei actually understood the meaning of this. If the Sun family father and son were all by his side and were willing to help him, the throne would be very easy for him, so his complaint just now was actually an emotional vent.
Zhao Dezhao had no choice but to say, "Don't the third uncle trust the Sun family's father and son?"
"Oh, Sun Yue is my brother, my best brother. I have always treated Sun Chunming with the courtesy of my elders. From my perspective, I naturally trust him. But you are an official family now and the Tian family is ruthless. Is it because we are brothers that I know better than others that the father and son are people who have no fear of the imperial power. Even the eldest brother never dared to let Sun Yue have soldiers in his hands and always use him as a military supervisor. How can he give him Tianxiong Army? The key is that Sun Yue is so small than you, and you can't stand him to death."
"Then...what should I do?"
"Oh, I know you don't trust me yet. It doesn't matter. Let's take a look. But after the dust settles in the future, we must transfer Sun Yue back to the center. We cannot let him stay outside, otherwise there will be no way to balance Sun Chunming."
