Give to Qingtang City!

When Cai Jing heard Zhang Shuye's suggestion, he immediately looked at this civil servant who was a military officer from Kaifeng (it was so tactful. He was obviously a general, but he wanted to be a civil servant. After becoming a civil servant, he always leaned on military affairs).

This is because I can’t bear to bear the child and can’t trap the wolf!

No matter how dissatisfied with Weiming Ganshun, Renduo Baozhong had a big family to eat. If there was no territory, Renduo's family would not starve to death? Not to mention giving him a military governor of Guiyi Army, he could not rebel even if he gave him the emperor of Dabai Gaoguo.

However, Qingtang City must have more oil and water than Zhuoluo City, Zhucheng, Karochuan and Renduoquan City! That was the location of Xining City, Qinghai Province in later generations, and it is close to the Qinghai Lake area with abundant water and grass. It is suitable for herds and farming. Once it returns to the Renduo family, Renduo family may develop into the second Yusiluo and establish its own independent kingdom.

Therefore, once the Song army crushed Qingtang Tubo, and then attacked Renduo Baozhong, who helped Tubo, and then took out the territory of Qingtang City to lure him, the Renduo family would most likely turn against him.

Once the Renduo family turned against each other, the Hexi Corridor might be cut off by the Song army in half! In this way, Xixia had to draw elite troops from the front of Wudinghe on the eastern front to counterattack Zhuoluo City, Buxi Zhucheng, Karochuan and Renduoquan City.

"Okay!" Cai Jing clapped his hands, "Ji Zhong, you are indeed a civil servant who knows military affairs and is good at fighting! Your suggestions are very good, and I will definitely try to make it happen. You can let it go, but you must remember that before luring Ren Duo and protecting the whole world, you must keep it strictly confidential, even if you cannot say it to your own people, otherwise there will definitely be someone in the court who opposes the surrender of Qingtang City, do you understand?"

"The emperor remembers the instructions of my husband." Zhang Shuye was overjoyed and quickly patted his chest to make a promise.

...

At the same time, Han Zhongyan was visiting the patient in Su Dongpo's mansion. The patient was Su Dongpo himself! He got sick in January this year and coughed up blood for a while. It was relieved only after the weather warmed up. However, Su Dongpo took a leave again today and did not go to court, so Han Zhongyan was very worried and came to visit the house that night.

When Han Zhongyan arrived at the Su Mansion, Su Dongpo and his son Su Xi went out to greet him. After following into the study, Han Zhongyan breathed a sigh of relief. Su Dongpo seemed to be fine.

When Han Zhongyan sat down, Su Dongpo said to him with a smile: "I suffered a little cold last night. I had a little cold this morning, so I took a leave and asked the doctor to recuperate at home."

"Isn't it serious?" Han Zhongyan asked.

Su Dongpo: "It's not a big deal. You can always hold on for another two or three years."

Han Zhongyan nodded and said, "At our age, taking care of our health is the most important thing."

Su Dongpo smiled and said, "Yes, the most important thing now is to support the world for the younger generations."

Han Zhongyan nodded. For Su Men Shi Xue, Su Dongpo's life is the most important thing! He is a talented man from Su Dongpo who has been famous all over the world for more than 40 years. He is not only qualified to study, use books, and has the uniqueness of the world. Now he is the deputy prime minister, and two very powerful villains Wu Haogu and Liang Shicheng, and other villains dare not use literary inquisition to deal with him. Therefore, in the political, literary and academic circles, Su Dongpo is a big tree that can shelter the wind and rain from the real school.

If he is gone, Jiehe Market and Yuntai Academy will be in turmoil.

"You have to raise it well," said Han Zhongyan. "In a few days, you will be twice in a row!"

Su Dongpo is now the Right Prime Minister of the Shangshu, and Xuanma is the Right Pushe and the Minister of the Jungshu. Although Su Dongpo is in poor health, Zhao Ji still decided to let him replace Cai Jing as the Right Prime Minister (Cai Jing was promoted to Left Prime Minister) in order to maintain balance in the court even if he gets sick at home every day, as long as he is there, the court will be calm.

"It's just that there are few successors!" Su Dongpo shook his head slightly, "Qin Shaoyou, Chen Wuji is no longer alive, Huang Luzhi and Uncle Li Wen are not in good health either."

Qin Shaoyou is Qin Guan, and Chen Wuji is Chen Shidao. These two are both members of the Six Gentlemen of Sumen, but they have passed away. Huang Tingjian and Li Gefei are not in good health, and I don’t know how many years can they last? If both of these two and Su Dongpo passed away, the only people who are worthy of Sumen and Shu will be Su Che, Chao Buzhi and Zhang Lei. Su Che is not as good as Wu Haogu, the real soul figure among Sumen and Bachelor of Sumen...

Feeling the atmosphere a little depressed, Han Zhongyan smiled and said, "Are there any Wu Haogu, Wu Haowen, Mi Youren, and a few rising stars of the Su family? In another ten years, some of them will be able to Xuanma."

Su Dongpo shook his head: "It will take ten years..."

In these ten years, at least five years have been the "window period". Can Cai Jing, Zhao Tingzhi, and Zhang Shangying, the new party's strong men let go of those seedlings?

Han Zhongyan sighed and comforted: "Maybe it won't take that long... This battle in Hehuang is also an opportunity. Maybe we can make some military achievements, so that we can get to court officials in five years."

The person he said that he would make some military achievements and strive to become a court official for five years is of course a martial arts and good-written article. This night, he was saying goodbye to his mother Feng Erniang.

Tomorrow, it is time for him to follow the army and head to Lanzhou!

In February this year, Wu Chengzhi, who had just become an official, also went to Pingjiang Army where the Suzhou-Hangzhou Construction Bureau was located with Mi Fu. His eldest son, Wu Haogu, is now the head of state in Jiehe Shangshi, and will not return to Kaifeng Prefecture until autumn.

"Mom, do you really not move to the Lihua Villa to go with your sister-in-law?"

During dinner, Wu Haowen suggested to his mother to move to the Lihua Villa. There was a family of people in the Lihua Villa, and Feng Erniang could move it over and it would be more lively.

"No need." Feng Erniang looked at her son, "It's better for my mother to live here. How can I be lonely with my wife and grandson?"

Of course she didn't want to live with Pan Qiaolian. Because Wu Haogu and Pan Qiaolian have always called her "Xiao Niang", which is the word used to call her father and concubine. Feng Erniang is indeed a concubine who is not from a good family, so she is really not very strong. It would be fine in front of Wu Haowen's wife, Niang Han, but Wu Haowen is her own son. But in front of Pan Qiaolian, she really can't raise her head.

Especially Pan Qiaolian is her brother Pan Xiao'an and she had a good time back then. Pan Qiaolian knew about her origin in a brothel!

"That's good." Wu Haowen also knew that his mother didn't like Pan Qiaolian. He saw tears flashing in his mother's eyes and knew that he was worried about him, so he said, "It won't be too long for the child to go here, it will be a year later, and it will be a few months later... and there will be no danger. The child is the head of the comforting department, so he doesn't have to be in the face of the battle."

This is actually a lie. The head of the appeasement department, Yiwen, must follow the appeasement envoy. Wang Hou is a military general and appeasement envoy, and he must lead his troops out of the battle. How could Wu Haowen not be in the battle?

Moreover, the expectation of one year or several months is unfounded.

"Well, my mother knows..."

Feng Erniang nodded slightly, looking at her son who had grown up and was about to go west to make achievements for the country, with indescribable relief and reluctance.

...

Wu Haogu was sitting in the study of the Jiehe Wu family mansion, holding a thick roster in his hand and reading it. This is a roster of citizens of Jiehe Commercial City that has just been counted.

The total number of citizens in the mall is more than 21,500, including more than 21,000 male citizens and more than 400 female citizens... Oh, this does not mean that the ratio of men and women in Jiehe Commercial City is seriously unbalanced, but that there are far fewer women registered to become citizens than men.

Of course, women can become citizens of Jiehe Commercial City! As long as they pay taxes according to law and reach a certain amount, they can become citizens and do not have to serve in the military. However, there are not many women with independent economic status in this era, and even fewer in Jiehe Commercial City. Therefore, the number of female citizens is pitifully small.

However, in Wu Haogu's family, there are quite a lot of female citizens. Ximen Qing, who is by his side, is a citizen! Because Ximen Qing owns a street property under his name, all industries that require payment of land tax.

In addition, Wu Haogu's outdoor rooms, Oliga and Du Wenyu are both citizens. Oliga is a "female knight" who owns a manor and has his own residence in Jiehe Market. Because he pays land tax, he is called a citizen. Du Wenyu's industry has more, not only has a big house, but also has his own calligraphy, painting, and arts business. He is a very wealthy female capitalist.

Yan Po'er, who once served as a martial arts maker, is also a citizen. She also owns a luxurious house and her own brothel in Jiehe. Of course, it is a tax-paying citizen Jiehe Market, which is a place where people laugh at the poor but not prostitutes!

The Arhat maid who also owns a tax industry is not a citizen because she is not a free person, but a slave.

According to the laws of Jiehe Market, slaves can own private property and are protected, but slaves cannot become citizens unless they become free first.

By the way, it is mentioned that the citizenship rights and household registration in Jiehe Commercial City are two different things. Jiehe Commercial City does not have the concept of household registration, only three identities: citizen, businessman and slave. As long as the free people living in the Commercial City are all businessmen after registration. Citizens must meet certain conditions, assume certain obligations, and enjoy considerable rights.

"Master," the voice of the slave Arhat maid came from outside the door, "The letter from Grand Official Pan and Mr. Su has been delivered."

"Take it in." Wu Haogu said. Then he heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and then the Arhat maid who walked in with her belly.

The Arhat maid is now pregnant with Wu Haogu's child, but she has not recuperated, but is still busy with Wu Haogu.

Ximen Qing reached out to take the letter from the Arhat maid, gently tore open the letter signed by Pan Xiao'an, took out the letter raft inside, and handed it to Wu Haogu.

Wu Haogu opened the letter raft, glanced at him and frowned.

"Official, what's wrong with it?" Ximen Qing asked with concern.
