The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 214 Zhao Da Zhao Er's Redemption Journey

Zhao Ji reused treacherous ministers, and made people miserable.

After repeated defeats in foreign wars, they brutally squeezed the people's fat in the country to support the increasingly deformed Bianliang City.

The Song army before Zhao Ji was still capable of fighting, but after he had been an official for decades, the Song army completely lost its fighting ability.

It can be said that the root of Jingkang's shame stems from Zhao Ji's oppression of the people in the head of Guizhou.

As for Zhao Huan, he only wanted to consolidate his own power, and he always cede territory and seek peace in the face of foreign invasion.

Not to mention expecting him to kill Sheji, he didn't even dare to fight.

Many people said that the shame of Jingkang was the bad luck of the royal family and ministers, and the people in Guizhou head had little loss.

This is simply ridiculous.

In the east of Hebei Province, countless cities and towns and villages were slaughtered by Jinren, and the facilities in various places have already been completely destroyed.

Here in Bianliang City, there used to be a population of almost 200 million in the city alone in history, but after the Jin people retreated, there were only a few hundred thousand left.

Don't those people who died in vain count?

Zhao Huan didn't dare to fight the Jin people, and he would fight anyone who dared to fight the Jin people.

If he changed his surname to Wanyan, no one would think that he was an official of Jin Kingdom.

In order to meet the demands of the Jinren, not to mention the robbery of people's wealth, people even went from house to house with ropes to bind young women.

Send these women to the golden camp outside the city to provide for the robbers to enjoy, for fear that the robbers will be angry if they don't enjoy it well.

There are more than tens of thousands of these women who were tortured by the Jin army and died tragically.

Don't these people's lives count?
Yue Fei wholeheartedly wanted to rescue these two bastards, how would he explain to the tens of millions of dead souls after he was rescued.

Although in this world, many tragedies were avoided because of Li Yunze's appearance, but this is not the reason for Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan's father and son to be exonerated.

As for Li Yunze, it is naturally impossible to give them any high-end retirement treatment and enjoyment.

In Tongxu Town, about a hundred miles south of Kaifeng Prefecture, a house was erected outside the town.

No one knows who the owner of the house is, and no one will be curious to peep in the winter.

The surrounding people only knew that except for the carts that transported vegetables and food coming in and out of the house, no one even went out at other times.

The official yamen servant went to the door once, but no one dared to go there since then.

The people of Tongxu Town will not know that the two former officials of Song Dynasty are in this house at this time, receiving the punishment they deserve.

Just as the sky was getting dark, the rooster in the yard started to crow, and Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, who were under the same roof, opened their eyes.

Although their bodies were exhausted and their heads ached, they still had to get up and put on their tattered clothes and jackets.

The father and son looked at each other in the weak light, and then looked away.

When they first arrived, they didn't want to get up in such cold weather, but if the cock crowed three times and still didn't get up, the guards wouldn't come in to beat them, but they would cancel their meals for three days.

One day without food may be tolerable, but if you don't eat for three days in a row, you will have to suffer from sour water.

When they first came here, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, father and son, also resisted, just not getting up, but they ended up starving for three days.

Hungry, they had to beg the guards for food, but no one answered them at all.

Three days later, faced with steamed buns and rice soup, the Xilihulu that the two former officials ate was like a delicacy from a fairy house.

Since then, they have never dared to stay in bed.

The guards don't care about the identities of the two, they only have one identity here, Zhao Da and Zhao Er.

When they left the room, guards in thick cotton coats were already waiting for them.

These guards have sharp eyes, like sharp knives.

The father and son, with their heads down, skillfully took out the bucket from the woodshed, and then went to fetch water from the well in the yard.

On this icy winter morning, under the howling cold wind, the delicate faces of the father and son had already been blown into old farmers who were exposed to the wind and rain all day long.

With their heads shrunk, they fetched buckets of water with hands full of frostbite until they filled up several water tanks in the firewood house.

After all this work, the sky is completely bright, and I can finally take a rest for a while.

At least they were able to enter the kitchen and, under the command of the chef, to fuel the fire and provide food for the whole courtyard.

Zhao Huan, who squatted on the ground and stuffed firewood into the stove, looked down at his pitch-black hands and the patched cuffs, and couldn't help crying from his heart.

Zhao Huan's heart is full of grievances from being degraded from a dignified official family to the present situation.

After finally clearing up his mood, when he raised his eyes, he saw Zhao Ji's gloating face.

Seeing this, Zhao Huan's heart suddenly turned cold.

The rules here came to mind in his mind, and he cried and complained that he would be fined without food!
And the food that he was fined will fall into Zhao Da's bowl.

Thinking of this, Zhao Huan was immediately out of breath.

Sure enough, while eating breakfast, Zhao Huan's hungry stomach growled, but he could only hold an empty bowl and watched Zhao Da eat a full meal.

His heart was full of resentment, and he thought about how to find a chance to deal with Zhao Da.

Zhao Huan's mentality has always been the same, and it was the same when he was an official. He never looked for reasons on himself, and whenever he had problems, he blamed others. There are 26 reasons for the mistake.

After breakfast, it is time to tidy up Nuo Da’s yard, clean up the trash, mop the floor, remove snow, etc.

Zhao Da and Zhao Er have their own divisions, whoever can't do well has nothing to eat.

They also lost the luxury of eating a hundred sheep for one meal in the past. They only had two meals a day, and they were often deducted.As for mutton, it can only be seen in the bowls of the guards, and it is not bad to be able to feed the bowl.

Busy until the afternoon, I can finally go back to my room after dinner.

But things are not over yet.

They want to write a confession in the room, and make a confession for their life that has harmed the country and the people.

And there are indicators for the number of words every day. If the number of words is not enough, there will be no food for the next day.

There are experts who specialize in literature to conduct inspections, and the number of words must meet the standard, and you must not deliberately scribble the number of words in order to be able to survive such a day.

They don't just go to bed at night, they have to wash and mend their clothes by themselves. At the beginning, because they are not familiar with it, their hands are covered with blood blisters.

Usually you have to wait until these things are all done before you go to bed and rest.

Then the next morning, the same hard days would continue.

Dreaming back in the middle of the night, the father and son hugged each other and cried countless times, and they had already turned Lao Jiu over and over in their hearts, and they turned and died countless times.

But whether it's begging, complaining, resentment, or regret, everything is useless.

They can only be imprisoned in this courtyard, atone for the evil things they have done day after day, until the day when the oil runs out and the lamps dry up.

On the side of Bianliang City, Li Yunze, who has become a new official, is arranging those exaggerated numbers of husbands.

Among the three chronic diseases of the Song Dynasty, redundant officials, redundant soldiers, and redundant expenses, the most difficult to solve is redundant officials.

Because it is the scholar bureaucrats who control the world, even if they know the seriousness of redundant officials, they will not solve it, because they cannot solve themselves.

As for officials, officials without military power can't do it well, and those with military power but without this heart can't do well either.

There are too many officials in the Song Dynasty, and every family will have nephews, and they also want to be officials.This forced the scholar-bureaucrats to keep expanding their official positions, resulting in unclear powers and responsibilities, regardless of powers, and causing a lot of confusion.

Zhao Ji's re-use of treacherous ministers is to facilitate him to seize power and enhance the control of imperial power, because treacherous ministers are obedient.

And the loyal ministers either look down on the official's family, or grab the official's sleeve and ask him to order something. If he doesn't make an order, I will resign and leave.

Zhao Huan was even more exaggerated. In a year's time, he actually got 26 ministers, and he was the first among the kings of subjugation.

In history, the three major diseases of the Song Dynasty were all resolved with the help of the Jin army's blade.

Now that Li Yunze has driven Jin Jun away, he has to deal with it himself.

His solution was a little rough.

"Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Cai You, Wang Fu, Li Bangyan, Cai Tao."

During Zhao Ji's reign, the ministers who were infinitely beautiful, whether they were in Bianliang City or in the local area, whether they were the servants in the palace or the important ministers in the outer dynasty, were all included in the first batch of strike list.

People lined up directly to be sent to the execution ground, even someone like Cai Jing who was 80 years old couldn't hide.

Someone once pleaded for Cai Jing, and the reason he used was that he should respect the elderly when he was old.

Li Yunze's response was "Age is not a reason to avoid guilt. Whether you are too old or too young, you have to pay the price for what you have done, otherwise it will be hard to understand!"

After that, it was natural to ransack the house, and all the family property except the salary was confiscated.

At the same time, pursuing the writing of relatives at home since their birth is tantamount to completely cutting off the possibility of them becoming officials and recovering.

At this time, it was natural for someone to intercede again.

Li Yunze's response was, "It is absolutely impossible for me to have the prime minister's son be the prime minister."

When enjoying, these relatives also enjoyed it.

Now when you are in bad luck, you can't forget them naturally.

The ransacking of the house is really shocking. For example, Cai Jing's house not only confiscated a huge amount of supplies, but also exposed his luxurious life, which is even more shocking.

Cai Jing eats more than 100 dishes for a meal, and the kitchen is bigger than other people's yards. It takes hundreds of people to cook together just for meals.

Dozens of sheep are used for a meal, which is not much better than the officials in the palace.

When the news came out, the people in Bianliang City who lacked food and clothing were furious.

On the day of Cai Jing's execution, countless people rushed forward and directly reduced him to endless pieces.

There is no resistance to deal with the ministers of the Huizong Dynasty, and there are few people shouting that "the punishment cannot be punished for scholar-bureaucrats".

After all, they have become dogs in the water, and everyone wants to kick them a few times.

Next, Li Yunze encountered a lot of resistance when he attacked the Lord He faction.

Not only did he take favors from the palace, but he also mobilized the Tai students to engage in public opinion, and asked the clansmen to come forward to intercede and so on.

But what greeted them was Li Yunze's ruthless iron fist!
