Chapter 306 Eliminating Liao Poison - Ginseng

"Liao country cancer?"

The officials couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and looked at the Liao Kingdom in confusion.

Zeng Bu sneered and said, "I heard that Fan Taicheng has the method of healing the country, so Zeng wants to hear Fan Taicheng's great opinion!"

The Liao Kingdom was the great enemy of the Great Song Dynasty for a century, and the elites of the Song Dynasty were helpless against the Liao Kingdom. He did not believe that Fan Zheng could have an evil recipe, which could cause civil strife for no reason in the orderly inheritance of the Liao Kingdom.

Fan Zheng solemnly said: "How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch? This is a famous saying of His Majesty Taizu, but it is also applicable to the Liao Kingdom. The Liao Kingdom is different from the Song and Xia. The Song Dynasty is all Han nationality, and the Xixia Dynasty is a party member. The world, while the Khitan of Liao was a union of many tribes."

"You mean to instigate tribal rebellion within the Liao Kingdom?" Zhang Dun said with his eyes brightened.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "That's right! On the grasslands, the past dynasties have been dominated by the weak and the strong. There were Huns and Turks in the past, and now there is the Khitan of the Liao Kingdom. In the future, other tribes will replace the Liao Kingdom. This is the iron law of the grassland for thousands of years. The country has a vast territory and adopts a tribal system. The tribes are ambitious, and the Liao Kingdom naturally understands that the Liao Kingdom has always suppressed the powerful tribes. All we need to know is that the Liao Kingdom has suppressed those tribes the most. We know which tribes are the most threatening to the Liao Kingdom."

"Mongol tribe!"

Lu Dafang blurted out.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "That's right, the Mughals are the tribe with the largest number of people on the grassland except for the Khitan, and they are located in the bitter cold north, they are brave and good at fighting. Its constant infighting, if there is a hero to unify the Mengwu tribe, it will definitely threaten the rule of the Liao Kingdom."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

Zeng Bu shook his head and said: "Although the Mongols may threaten the Liao Kingdom, the Liao Kingdom has divided them into defenses against them. In addition, the Great Song Dynasty and it are separated by Xixia and Liao Kingdom, so they cannot contact at all. It is impossible for the Great Song Dynasty Used."

All the ministers couldn't help sighing slightly, Fan Zheng's idea seemed feasible, but it was beyond his reach, and there was no way to implement it.

Fan Zheng nodded and said, "Although mobilizing the Mongols to resist the Liao Kingdom is not feasible for the time being, there is another tribe in the Northeast that is equally powerful and also suppressed by the Liao Kingdom!"

"Could it be that what Fan Taicheng is talking about is the Jurchen?" Zeng Bu laughed, "It's even more impossible for the Jurchen to threaten the Liao Kingdom. Their tribe has no more than 70 people, and the Liao Kingdom has [-] troops. If the Jurchen dare to have a different heart, the Liao Kingdom can be destroyed in a snap. .”

The other ministers also shook their heads and laughed, thinking that Fan Zheng was just wishful thinking!There are many Mughal tribes and their special geographical location may pose a threat to the Liao Kingdom. However, the Jurchens are only [-] people, so it is impossible for them to pose a threat to the Liao Kingdom.

Fan Zheng said solemnly: "Although the number of Jurchens is small, their bravery is world-renowned. The Liao Taizu once said that "Jurchens are less than ten thousand, and ten thousand cannot be controlled." All along, the Liao Kingdom has been suppressing Jurchen doubly, making their numbers always dissatisfied Wan, Jurchen and the Liao Kingdom have long had a deep blood feud, as long as the Jurchen has the opportunity, they will definitely rebel against the Liao Kingdom."

Zeng Bu's face was solemn, Jurchen's bravery was indeed extraordinary, even in the Great Song Dynasty, Jurchen's bravery was still spread.

"Besides, the Jurchen is located between the white mountains and the black waters, where there are dense forests. Once the Jurchen rebels, with its brave characteristics and special location, it will definitely become the biggest cancer in the Liao Kingdom." Fan Zhengzheng believed.

The ministers nodded slightly. The Jurchen is indeed a tribe that may pose a threat to the Liao Kingdom.

"It's a pity that the Jurchen is located in the bitter cold of the Northeast, and the Song Dynasty can't support it, otherwise..." Zhao Xu regretted that there was obviously a way to restrain the Liao Kingdom, but they were too far apart to be helpless.

Fan Zheng smiled slightly, and said to himself: "Who said Da Song couldn't support him?"

Lu Dafang frowned and said: "The Jurchen tribe is powerful in battle, and the Liao Kingdom is strictly guarding against it. Moreover, there are also Goryeo and Liao Kingdom Tokyo in between. The Song Dynasty also has no chance."

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "It is true that Song Dynasty has no way to support the Jurchen on the surface, but it is not impossible to help secretly. In the place where the Jurchen tribe is located, there is a magical medicinal material called ginseng, which can greatly replenish vitality and strengthen the body." Heart solidification, calming the nerves and promoting body fluid, can be used for various symptoms of long-term deficiency and insufficient qi, blood and body fluid, especially ginseng that has been used for more than a hundred years, it can renew the life of a dying person. If it is a thousand-year-old ginseng, it may be used properly. effect."

"Continue!" "Back to life!"

All the officials were in an uproar. Fan Zheng just discovered that using first aid can bring people back to life, and now there is another medicine that can bring people back to life.

"really?"

Su Song frowned. Although he knew that ginseng was a precious medicinal material, he did not know that ginseng had such miraculous effects.

"Naturally, the Empress Dowager has been seriously ill for many years, but she is still alive today, thanks to the thousand-year-old ginseng. Now the thousand-year-old ginseng is almost exhausted. Your majesty spared no expense to solicit the thousand-year-old ginseng. The filial piety is really moving." Fan Zheng faced Zhao Xu saluted solemnly.

Zhang Dun's heart moved, and he quickly answered the words: "The officials are very filial, and the ministers are also very impressed. I heard that the thousand-year-old ginseng can only be found in Changbai Mountain."

The important officials in the court are all human beings, and Wen Xian knew it immediately: "I admire the pure filial piety of the officials."

Seeing this, Lu Dafang sighed, "I'm old, I don't want 500-year-old ginseng, but only [-]-year-old ginseng to keep my life alive!"

Zeng Bu was dumbfounded and said, "Can Jurchen rebel in this way?"

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, ginseng does have medicinal uses. It is also true that people often use it to kill people. Even the doctors of the Liao Kingdom have to admit this. Once this strategy is implemented, the Liao Kingdom will not be aware of the Song Dynasty's intention at all. , and Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Liao Dynasty was already old. The older the emperor, the more afraid of death. This is also the reason why all the emperors of the past dynasties sought immortality in their later years, and the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty was no exception. Although he was not stupid enough to cultivate immortality, he faced Ginseng, which can extend your life, will definitely not be missed."

Zhao Xu's eyes lit up and said: "Emperor Liao will definitely let the Jurchen tribe offer more thousand-year-old ginseng every year to further suppress the Jurchen."

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "Both the royal families of the two countries demand millennium ginseng, which will definitely increase the value of ginseng by ten times and a hundred times, and it is even hard to find old ginseng. You think that the nobles of Liao will miss this opportunity. They only need to buy it at a low price. The ginseng snatched from the hands of the Jurchens can be sold at a high price. How can the Jurchens be willing to accept it for a long time?"

All the ministers nodded. In this way, the conflict between the Liao Kingdom and the Jurchen will increase sharply in a short period of time.

"Furthermore, the price of ginseng has skyrocketed. The Jurchen tribe is unwilling to be squeezed by the rich and powerful of the Liao Kingdom. They will definitely avoid the rich and powerful and resell them privately. This is enough to get a lot of money, and it will further aggravate the conflict between the Jurchen and the Liao Kingdom."

"At this moment, the Jurchen has already obtained huge benefits from ginseng, and the power of the tribe has further grown, and its contradictions are destined to be irreconcilable until the Jurchen finally rebelled."

Fan Zheng spoke loudly.

"This is a good strategy!"

Zhao Xu beat the case and exclaimed.Fan only used a small ginseng plant to provoke the Jurchen rebellion. It was a stroke of genius.
All the ministers nodded slightly. In their view, the Liao Kingdom was impeccable, but in Fan Zheng's eyes, there were so many flaws.

To carry out this plan, Song Dynasty would spend some money to buy ginseng at most. If it can cause civil strife in Liao, the money can be said to be worth thousands of dollars.

"This strategy is an impeccable conspiracy, and it should be the best strategy." Zeng Bu understood the truth and said ecstatically.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Ginseng is a life-saving medicine, but now it has become the poison of the Liao Kingdom. The Song Dynasty can't even defeat the current Liao Kingdom. If Jurchen suddenly rises and wipes out the Liao Kingdom, a stronger and more barbaric country will be destroyed." If Jurchen appeared in the northern border of the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid that the Great Song Dynasty will also be in danger of destroying the country, which is why this strategy is a bad one."

At the moment, the entire Chuigong Hall was silent.
