Chapter 188

When the Empress Dowager Xiang arrived at the Baoci Palace, the Empress Dowager told her about the fact that Mrs. Han and Lu had entered the palace this morning to serve as lobbyists for Wen Yanbo.

After listening to the Queen Mother, she was taken aback for a while, and then laughed: "Madam, even Grand Master Wen has his eyes on Sixth Brother!"

"It seems that Sixth Brother has indeed won the support of the government and the public!"

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, has there ever been a senior minister who thought about sending his granddaughter into the palace after the new king ascended the throne?

Most people are avoiding it in fear!
Because becoming a foreign relative is equivalent to descendants, it is probably impossible to enter the three provinces and two prefectures again.

At most, that is, the local magistrate or the generous and leisurely noble position among the six ministries.

Wealth is wealth, but there is no chance to dominate the state affairs, and it is no longer possible to influence the world.

Therefore, as long as there is hope for the general family of veterans and ministers, they will never follow the path of their relatives.

Now, Grand Master Wen Yanbo Wen is actually willing to make this bet!
Rang Xiang was really surprised and delighted.

reason?

Even Grand Master Wenyan Bowen wanted to send his granddaughter into the palace eagerly.

It is clear at a glance whether the people of the world are against each other!
The Empress Dowager was also very happy.

After all, this matter gave her a lot of face!

"Empress Dowager, you might as well send someone to inform each family to postpone the day when each family's young lady enters the palace for a few days..."

This is to allow enough time for Wen Yanbo's granddaughter or great-granddaughter.

Smiling and nodding to the Empress Dowager: "Just according to your mother!"

……

When Zhao Xu arrived at Baoci Palace, he found that the two palaces looked at him differently from before.

"Mother, empress..." Zhao Xu sat down and asked, "Why do you look at me like this?"

"I have flowers on my face?"

The Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Xiang suddenly laughed, and the Empress Dowager said: "Although there is no flower on the official's face, it is almost the same!"

Zhao Xu probably guessed something, he sat in the middle of the two palaces calmly, touched his little face, pretending to be suspicious: "I washed before I came..."

The two palaces laughed again.

Empress Dowager Xiang stopped teasing the child, and stroked his head and said, "My son has no flowers on his face!"

"But my son has already attracted bees and butterflies!"

"Ok?"

"My son will know himself in the future!" The Queen Mother didn't think about it, so she just said it.

Although Sima Guang's words were a bit silly, they made sense to some extent.

Especially when it comes to women!

Brother Six is ​​young, so he should pay attention not to be contaminated prematurely.

According to the history books, Emperor Zhaodi of the Han Dynasty seems to have died prematurely because of his premature contact with female sex.

Another one, although the adopted girls were indeed for Sixth Brother.

But whether they can please Sixth Brother or not depends on themselves.

At this time, Liang Weijian's voice came from outside the hall: "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, everyone... good news..."

"Biography!" The two palaces looked at each other.

Then there was a courtier who was holding up a side newspaper that was delivered to the Tongjian Division in a hurry, knelt outside the curtain, and read the words on the side newspaper: "Quan Ti Ju Xihe Lanhui Road Frontier Defense Finance Minister Zong Hui , the same in charge of Gouxi, Helanhui Road, Frontier Defense Finance Minister Gongji, etc. bowed their heads and worshiped the two palaces, His Majesty the Emperor..."

The two palaces frowned suddenly, and their faces darkened.

In just a few days, the two bastards Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji have already provoked the side?
Then I listened to the courtier saying: "Fu Wei's two palaces are benevolent, wise and far-sighted, His Majesty the Emperor is powerful in the world... The minister is equal to Qin Fenglu, Dao meets the army thief Wang Chong's group... Lai the two palaces are blessed by the benevolent saints, His Majesty the Emperor blesses, More than [-] people under Wang Chong have been captured, more than [-] people have been beheaded..."

The complexion of the two palaces turned from cloudy to sunny.

Bandit Wang Chong? !
They all remembered that it was Wang Chong, the rebel sergeant who had been reporting the rebellion to the magistrate since last year?
After the two palaces took charge of the administration, they heard more than one report from Yousi that the bandit Wang Chong used the terrain of the border area to constantly harass and guerrilla.

Some local officials even shouted: After Zhang and Guo Erni, this is the most ferocious thief!

It means that you have to punch hard!
Zhang and Guo Erni, of course the two palaces knew that they were the leaders of the Shaanxi mutiny that caused a sensation in the Renmiao era.

These two rebels, when they were at their peak, roamed around half of the world's military states and repeatedly defeated the Song Dynasty's official army.

There was panic in the ruling and opposition parties.

Finally, under the personal deployment of Renmiao, more than [-] elite Yang Wenguang troops under Fan Zhongyan's command were recruited, and officials from all directions were appointed to dispatch the Eighth Route Army to block the traffic in Shaanxi.

Only then did this group of gangsters be strangled to death!

When Zhang and Guo Erni were active, the Empress Dowager was still serving Cisheng Guangxian in the palace, but she remembered very clearly that at that time, the palace was shocked three times a day, and Renmiao didn't think about eating and drinking because of it, until the side reported that he had been captured. After killing Zhang Ni and Guo Ni, and clearing up the rest, he finally became happy.

As for the Queen Mother?
When she was young, even though Zhang, Guo and others had already been put to death, the names of these people were still very resounding among the people, which had the effect of stopping children from crying!
And the thief Wang Chong was based in the Shangluo area where Zhang and Guo Erni started their business back then.

It is also the practice of Zhang and Guo Erni that imitated.

He ran around, harassed the government, and took down the county town if he had the opportunity, and opened a warehouse for relief.

Learn from the anti-king style at the end of the Sui Dynasty!

Naturally, when the two palaces found out, they were very worried.

Last month, a special edict was issued, ordering the government of Fuyan Road, Huanqing Road, Yongxing Army and other places to strictly enforce the encirclement and suppression, and also specially ordered Fuyan Road to dispatch a deputy general to lead the elite cavalry of the frontier army as the main force of the encirclement and suppression !

Unexpectedly, the thief Wang Chong fled to Qinfeng Road, but luckily he ran into the hands of Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji who had gone to Xihe to take office.

Although the two palaces knew it well, Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji sat in the back and watched the accompanying Xihe elite generals rush to kill.

But still very happy!
After all, one is a younger brother and the other is a nephew, and both have been discussed.

Now they have made such a feat!

It really gives them a long face!
The two palaces said almost immediately: "Send the good news quickly!"

Zhao Xu was at the side, and took the opportunity to say: "You two relatives of the country are actually on the way, and you have already made meritorious service for the country!"

"It can be seen that the two relatives of the country are indeed good ministers of the country!"

Lianggong listened, and couldn't close his mouth when he laughed.

Liang Weijian sent the news to the front of the Lianggong case.

The two palaces were opened, and after a careful look, the smile on his face became even brighter.

Zhao Xu was by the side and also finished reading the good news.

He was not surprised!
In the team of Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji, there are a bunch of war gods from Xihe Road!
Wang Wenyu, Akemi, Qin Gui, Li Hao...

They are all brave generals killed in a sea of ​​blood and mountains of corpses!
Including their accompanying cavalry and Xihe cavalry who came to meet them, there are more than 4000 cavalry!
Not to mention a group of wandering rebel soldiers, even if they encounter the Liao Lord's leather army and palace tent army, they can win the battle!
So, that Wang Chong was unlucky. He just jumped out of the siege on Huanqing Road and bumped into two royal relatives who were eating beef and singing and planning to go to Xihe to plant cotton.

"Mother, empress..." Zhao Xu said, "I remember that Yousi reported that Wang Chong was in trouble, killing officials, stealing treasury...it was really a huge thief!"

"The two relatives of the country were captured and killed in one battle, and all their followers were killed and captured..."

"You really deserve to be the son of my court general, the empress of a famous minister!"

"It's a great reward!"

When Liang Gong heard Zhao Xu's words, he felt very happy in his heart.

Of course, Lianggong still pretended not to care.

"The children were lucky enough to capture and kill a thief!" The Empress Dowager said calmly, "It's not enough to congratulate!"

Empress Dowager Xiang also said: "Xiang Zonghui is just lucky, it's not a credit!"

"Besides, Sixth Brother has already rewarded them with beauty officials, so no more rewards!",

"Let people in the world think that the empress mother and the mother-in-law are nepotism!"

However, the smiles and expressions on their faces have already betrayed them.

Zhao Xu said: "Seven to eight hundred people gathered together to create chaos and run rampant in states and counties? Since ancient times, where did such thieves come from?"

"These giant bandits and thieves are the country's trouble!"

Zhao Xu looked at the two palaces solemnly, like an adult: "Mother, Empress, two relatives of the country, for capturing and killing giant bandits for me, you must reward them!"

"Otherwise, if the rewards and punishments are unfair, the country will be ruined!"

This is the truth that Zhao Xu has kept in mind after seeing the deeds of the emperors in the past dynasties, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, and studying the deeds of several outstanding ones.

For the army, reward fast!

The good news ahead comes up, and the prepared rewards will be distributed immediately, without delay!

You can't be like Emperor Taizong, be stingy with those rewards, and finally lose your whole life's reputation!

　Note: The Zhang Hai, Guo Miaoshan, and Shao Xing uprisings were the uprisings in the Qingli era that shook the entire Northern Song Dynasty.

　　Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu and others were frightened by it, thinking that if they were not wiped out quickly, Da Song would have to take jujube pills.

　　The scale and destructiveness of this uprising surpassed that of Liangshan Shuibo later.

　　Moreover, this is a real rebel army.

　　On the contrary, it was the Song army who encircled and suppressed them. Their military discipline was corrupt, and they killed the good and pretended to be meritorious!
　　Even Song Ting's own scholar-bureaucrats had to admit: officers and soldiers... are better than thieves!
　　Therefore, readers are requested to pay attention to screening.

　　The buttocks of scholar-officials and emperors will not sit on the side of ordinary people!

　　Note 2: Wang Chong's uprising was a sergeant uprising that reappeared in Shangzhou, the base of the Zhang Hai uprising in the seventh year of Yuanfeng.

　　Sergeant uprisings were a characteristic of the Northern Song Dynasty—under normal circumstances, peasant uprisings in the early and mid-Northern Song Dynasty were small-scale and would not form large-scale peasant uprisings, so in the Northern Song Dynasty, it was usually sergeants who resisted!
　　According to the "Continued Zizhi Tongjian Long Story", Wang Chong's uprising was wiped out on Qinfeng Road in mid-June. According to previous records, it is speculated that Wang Chong met the elite frontier army of the Northern Song Dynasty on Qinfeng Road after he jumped out of the encirclement of the Northern Song Dynasty army.

　　Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji are used here.
