Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

Fan Chunli looked around the court and said proudly: "Just as the policy of liberating serfs, which was effective in Tubo, cannot be implemented in Dali, the southwest will never repeat the disaster of Dangxiang."

"In the land of Xixia, the Dangxiang family dominates, and the Li family is in charge of the entire Dangxiang family. This is the foundation for Li Yuanhao's rise. Among the tribes in the southwest, the largest tribes include the four families of the Yang family in Bozhou, and there are countless other small tribes. In addition to the thirty-six tribes in eastern Yunnan and other tribes, there are hundreds of them. Coupled with the special terrain of the southwest, if the chieftain system is implemented, it is impossible for each chieftain to submit to other tribes, and the tribes in the southwest will always be A plate of loose sand.”

"If the chieftain system had been proposed a hundred years ago, and the imperial court had applied it to all party ministries, allowing them to be hereditary and self-reliant, it might have been possible to avoid the disaster of Xixia."

At this moment, Fan Chunli finally understood the essence of Fan Zheng's chieftain system. The chieftain system was a conspiracy that could disintegrate all the ministries in the southwest without spending a single soldier or money from the court.

For the benefit of themselves and their families, the chiefs of the tribes in the southwest would happily accept the chieftains from the court even if they knew the shortcomings of the chieftain system. They would even try their best to maintain the chieftain system. From then on, they would dominate their own tribes and completely lose their ambitions.

"The chieftain system!"

The officials couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring, and began to formally examine the chieftain system of the evil doctor Fan Zheng, and then discovered the beauty of the chieftain system.

"This is a wonderful recipe! The hereditary system of the past dynasties is like a parasite, constantly sucking the blood of the imperial court. The chieftain system allows the hereditary system of the southwestern tribes to be replaced without any reward from the imperial court. These patriarchs are like parasites and cannot absorb the blood of the imperial court. If you want blood, you can only draw the blood of your own tribe, which will harm one tribe and fatten the whole family. It is like one person suffering from schistosomiasis, with no possibility of growing stronger. Once this strategy is implemented, the southwest will be worry-free." Su Song sighed.

"Is the chieftain system the schistosomiasis of the Southwest?" All the officials suddenly felt enlightened, and their hearts suddenly became enlightened.

Fan Chunli echoed: "Moreover, Fan Zheng led the Eastern Route Army all the way unimpeded and invincible. He relied on the southwest departments. Now that the Song Dynasty has not established a stable foothold in the southwest, it may take ten years to immigrate the people. The so-called strong dragon cannot suppress Local snakes, without the cooperation of the southwest ministries, I am afraid that they will not be able to completely control Dali. I think the chieftain system is the best solution!"

"Is the chieftain system the best policy?" The New Party frowned. If the chieftain system of the evil doctor Fan Zheng is the best policy, then how should the Privy Councilor Zeng Bu's proposal be handled?

Fan Chunli snorted coldly: "Our biggest enemy in the Song Dynasty is the Liaoxia. It is not appropriate to waste too much troops and energy in the southwest, especially since the terrain in the southwest is dangerous and there are forests everywhere. If the government is governed by floating officials, the various ministries in the southwest will definitely not accept it. If Rebellion will definitely tie down the Song Dynasty’s many troops and delay the important task of destroying Xixia and recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun.”

"Having said that, anyone who starts from the chieftain system will definitely cause the southwestern tribes to be left behind, and it will become a disaster in the future!" Zhang Dun hit the nail on the head.

The New Party responded one after another and seized on the shortcomings of the chieftain system.

Fan Chunli shook his head and said: "You and I both know that the chieftain system is as harmful as schistosomiasis, but no one likes parasites, not even the patients themselves. Now the chieftain system only appeases the various departments in the southwest, allowing them to stay in their ways and become scattered, which will lead to great disasters in the future. When the Song Dynasty defeated Liao and Xia, it freed up its hands, and the shortcomings of the chieftain system must have been revealed."

"The people in the southwest will definitely hate the chieftain as much as the Tubo serfs hate the Tibetan lords. At that time, the court can take advantage of the situation to implement the Tibetan policy and make the people in the southwest completely return to their hearts. Finally, it is logical to send out exiled officials to govern the southwest. If they directly dispatch outposted officials to govern the southwest The various ministries, firstly, have no foundation, and secondly, the terrain in the southwest is special, so I’m afraid it can only be counterproductive.”

All the officials couldn't help but remain silent. Before this, everyone thought that sending officials to exile was the best policy, the chieftain system was the worst policy, and copying the Tubo policy was the worst policy.

However, after Fan Chunli interpreted Fan Zheng's middle strategy, all the officials were surprised to find that the chieftain system was the best strategy, copying the Tubo strategy was the middle strategy, and directly sending officials to govern the southwest was the worst strategy. The difference was simply astonishing. It's incredible.

"But if this happens, there will be a battle in the southwest." Yang Wei frowned.

As a representative of the old party, Yang Wei had a natural aversion to war. Who knew that the Song Dynasty promulgated the chieftain system. If he tried to abolish it in the future, he would be rebelled by the chieftains, and there would be a war in the southwest.

The other officials could not help but hesitate.

Fan Chunli snorted: "By then, the Song Dynasty has defeated Liao Xia and has no rivals in the world. How can it still be afraid of the scattered southwest tribes? Besides, if the southwest tribes do not rebel, how will the Song Dynasty suppress the rebellion? There is reason to move to the southwest. Common people, let the Song people occupy the majority in the southwest.”

"hiss!"

Suddenly, all the officials couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and looked at Fan Chunli in shock.

"This is an evil recipe!"

After Fan Chunli's interpretation, all the officials were shocked. They did not expect that Fan Zheng's chieftain system was so evil. Not only did he use the chieftain system as a conspiracy to let the Song Dynasty gain a foothold in the southwest, but he also found a perfect way for the Song Dynasty to interfere in the southwest in the future. Excuse.

"I am amazed by the evil prescriptions of the evil doctor Fan Zheng!"

Su Song couldn't help but sigh.

Although this approach has some evil charms, it is of great benefit to the Song Dynasty. Not only does it take into account the immediate interests, but it also lays the groundwork for the Song Dynasty to control the southwest in the future.

"Let the officials decide!"

After all the officials argued for a while, they bowed to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu looked around and solemnly said: "Send an order to Dali, govern Dali according to Fan Zheng's policy, enfeoff all the southwest tribes as chieftains, reorganize the Xiang soldiers into a construction corps, and immigrate to the Shanchan Prefecture area of ​​Dali City."

Dali City and Shanchan Prefecture are the essence of the southwest and the place with the richest products. As long as the Song people control these two places and connect them together, assisting the chieftain system, it will be enough to stabilize the southwest.

"The officials are wise!"

All the officials praised him one after another.

Zhang Dun couldn't help but sigh. He originally thought that this time the court would definitely choose Zeng Bu's recipe, but he didn't expect that the evil doctor Fan Zheng would once again make a comeback and conquer all the court officials with the chieftain system that everyone thought was full of loopholes. Even the most obvious shortcomings have become a foreshadowing for future interference in various ministries in the southwest.

If Fan Zheng had known about the controversy in the imperial court, he would probably have been stunned. He really didn't expect so much from the conscience of heaven and earth. It was because his father's interpretation was too perfect.

..............................

As the court decision was made, the officials dispersed one after another. At the same time, news about the Battle of Dali also spread in Kaifeng City.

"The evil doctor Fan Zheng used this strange plan twice!"

"Cross Cangshan Mountain and attack Dali City by surprise!"

"The evil doctor Fan Zheng is invincible! He really deserves his reputation!"

........................

In Kaifeng City, countless people heard about Fan Zheng's second plan to help others, and they couldn't help but feel like nectar dripping from their chests about his strange plan to cross Cangshan Mountain.

Although the first conspiracy was a strange one, it could still be understood. However, it was infinitely amplified by Fan Zheng's evil plan of using human beings as locusts, and he actually attacked the city of Dali in one fell swoop.

However, facing the powerful passes such as Longshou Pass and Longwei Pass, the evil doctor Fan Zheng made his second plan to directly cross Cangshan Mountain and attack Dali City. "The two great passes of Longshou Pass and Longwei Pass are in vain. It's a stroke of genius, a stroke of genius!"

One hundred thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were once buried under Longshou Pass, which made the people of Dali extremely taboo about Longshou Pass. But now Fan Zheng's evil method of crossing Cangshan has saved the lives of tens of thousands of Song troops.

"It is said that the main force that crossed Cangshan Mountain were the southwestern Yi tribes and the thirty-six tribes from eastern Yunnan. In other words, the Song Dynasty captured Dali City without any effort. With such a battle, if you look at the world, there is probably only one evil doctor Fan Zheng. .”

A commoner exclaimed.

"I heard that the evil doctor Fan Zheng did not forget to practice medicine during the war. He even invented Dali Baiyao in Dali. It is an excellent wound medicine and has miraculous effects on external injuries. He directly issued thousands of Panax notoginseng medicinal materials to various Lingnan tribes. The order can make those barbarians rich." A Kaifeng merchant said enviously. road.

"The evil doctor Fan Zheng was too kind to the southwestern barbarians. Even if they attacked Dali and became friends with them, they could not make each other rich. He also reported to the imperial court to make the chieftains of each tribe a chieftain and let them inherit the throne." There are also scholars who are dissatisfied with him. road.

Naturally, the imperial court would not disclose the conspiracy of the chieftain system to the public. Now the people in Kaifeng believe that the evil doctor Fan Zheng is too kind to the barbarians in the southwest.

"Also, today's officials have too much faith in the evil doctor Fan Zheng. They actually abandoned the best strategy of the Privy Council and chose the middle strategy of the evil doctor Fan Zheng." A student frowned.

Hearing this, the medical student passing by sneered and said, "Is there anything incomprehensible about this? Fan Taicheng should be the first to succeed in the battle of Dali, and Fan Taicheng's methods have never failed. If you were an official, you would definitely use Fan Taicheng's strategies." , Besides, what you think is an evil recipe will definitely prove to be a rare good recipe in the future."

Doctor Tai opened his mouth to argue, but was speechless, because this kind of thing has happened too many times, and all those who questioned the evil doctor Fan Zheng were slapped in the face. Is this time an exception?

..............................

In Dali City,

With the orderly retreat of the southwestern Yi tribes and the thirty-six eastern Yunnan tribes, only the Song army remained in the entire Dali City!

Zeng Bu was not idle either. He sent Song generals to cooperate with Duan Zhengchun and began to recruit the southern tribes that had not surrendered. He naturally knew that one of the purposes of capturing Dali was to prepare for the future attack on Bagan. Recovering the southern tribes of Dali was the top priority.

"I would like to inform you, Your Majesty the Privy Envoy, that the southern ministries have always been dissatisfied with Dali. In addition, with the outbreak of the Dali War, the Bagan Kingdom has vaguely heard about it and began to win over the southern ministries. Each ministry seems to be showing signs of defecting to the Bagan Kingdom!" Zhong Pu hurriedly reported.

"Bagan is so brave. Before our Song Dynasty provoked him, he now dared to stroke my Song Dynasty's tiger beard." Zeng Bu said angrily.

"Yelang is just arrogant!" Zhong Pu also snorted coldly.

However, although Zhongpu looked down on Bagan, he also understood that Bagan was not without confidence. First of all, Bagan itself was a powerful country. Back then, it directly attacked Dali City and asked Dali's monarchs and ministers to sign an alliance under the city.

Secondly, the country of Bagan is located in a remote location, and there is a forest in the southwest as a barrier. Zhongpu attacked Dali all the way, so he naturally knew the terror of the forest in the southwest, and the terror of the forest in the Bagan country was far worse than that in the southwest. The Song Dynasty had just laid the foundation of the Dali Kingdom but it was not yet stable. , it is really not appropriate to start another war.

"Temporarily appease the southwest ministries first, don't let them fall to the Bagan Kingdom, and wait for the Kaifeng decree before making a decision." Zeng Bu thought for a while and said.

"Yes!" Zhong Pu nodded.

"By the way, what is Fan Taicheng doing recently?" Zeng Bu suddenly asked.

Because he was stealing credit, he was quite estranged from Fan Zheng. He suddenly realized that Fan Zheng had not appeared recently, and couldn't help but ask.

Zhong Pu said with a strange expression: "Fan Taicheng has recently made good friends with Duan Yu, Duan Zhengchun's son, and is looking for Tianlong Temple. It is said that he is looking for Dali's secret knowledge."

"Duan Yu, Tianlong Temple, Dali's secret knowledge!" Zeng Bu couldn't help but was stunned and suddenly confused.

........................

"Little Wang dare not deceive Fan Taicheng. There is no Tianlong Temple in Dali. The place where my uncle and other Duan family emperors became monks is Chongsheng Temple." In Chongsheng Temple, Duan Yu tried his best to explain to Fan Zheng.

"Is there really no Tianlong Temple?" Fan Zheng frowned.

The elegant Duan Yu broke into a cold sweat and said: "Absolutely not. Xiao Wang has lived in Dali all his life and has never heard of Tianlong Temple, let alone the family's secret skill of Yiyang Finger, let alone the Six Meridians Divine Sword."

Fan Zheng looked at the emaciated Duan Yu and the skinny-faced Baoding Emperor Duan Zhengming. From a doctor's point of view, they looked like weak people and did not look like masters who were proficient in martial arts.

"Fan originally wanted to use his inner strength secrets to verify the doctors' theory of meridians, but he didn't expect it to be a misunderstanding!" Fan Zheng said regretfully.

Duan Yu wiped his cold sweat and said: "Misunderstanding, it is indeed a misunderstanding!"

Now the evil doctor Fan is a terrifying existence in Dali. He leads a mob and sweeps across the entire Dali. He also comes up with a strange plan to cross the Cangshan Mountain, making the two dangerous passes of Dali useless and destroying the country.

What Duan Yu didn't expect now was that for some reason he was targeted by the evil doctor Fan Zheng, who actually wanted to see the Duan family's secret skill of Yiyang Finger. According to his words, if the Duan family really knew Yiyang Finger, wouldn't it be possible? He was about to be disemboweled by the evil doctor Fan Zheng, skinned and cramped to study the meridians.

Duan Zhengming, who had always maintained a high monk status, also breathed a sigh of relief, and then slightly gestured to Duan Yu, who was accompanying the evil doctor Fan Zheng.

Duan Yu understood and gritted his teeth and said, "Please give me Fan Taicheng's warning. Dali will naturally be overjoyed when he learns that the Celestial Army is standing up for my Duan family. The previous resistance to the Celestial Army was all done by the rebel Gao family and his son, and the Duan family is innocent."

"Loyal ministers! Now the Privy Council has ordered that the Gao family and his son are loyal ministers of Dali. Prince Duan Yu should not get confused!" Fan Zheng corrected.

"Uh!"

Duan Yu concluded his words immediately. The performance of the Gao family and his son before their death, coupled with the Song people's change of attitude towards the Gao family and his son, made the Duan family's situation extremely embarrassing.

"I, Dali, have been longing for the Celestial Empire. I am willing to abdicate voluntarily and become a minister of the Song Dynasty. I would also like to ask Fan Taicheng to say a few kind words!" Duan Yu said through gritted teeth.

Duan Yu understood that the Duan family was now a subjugated king, and his life and death depended on the Song Dynasty. Everyone knew that the evil doctor Fan Zheng was a popular figure among the officials of the Song Dynasty and obeyed his advice.

If the evil doctor Fan Zheng could put in a good word for the Duan family of Dali in front of the officials of the Song Dynasty, he might be able to save the Duan family of Dali.

"It's easy to talk about! It's easy to talk about!" Fan Zheng said casually. He naturally knew that the Song Dynasty still needed the Duan family to appease the various tribes in Dali. In the future, it would need to use the Duan family as an excuse for revenge to attack Bagan. The Duan family in Dali would only be reused.

Suddenly, Yang Bangyi came in a hurry and came to report: "Report to Fan Taicheng, the imperial court has sent a decree, and Fan Taicheng's chieftain system has been implemented."

Suddenly, Duan Yu looked at Fan Zheng with a more solemn look. The evil doctor Fan Zheng was indeed a popular person among the officials of the Song Dynasty. Even Dali's policies were based on the advice of the evil doctor Fan Zheng.

Crab, will pull others down too. (End of chapter)
