I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 817 I'm in a hurry

Chapter 817 I'm in a hurry
You can't kick him to death, you can only vent your anger a little bit like this.

The reason why Zhao Xi waited for the prince to come to let this rebellious son enter the palace is also to give the prince a chance to give favors...~Zhao Xi really doesn't want to see his brother's quarrel happen to his descendants.

Fortunately, the prince understands very well...

Zhao Xi was also looking at the prince's mind...

"Am I not cruel enough?"

Being persuaded by the prince, Zhao Xi did not continue.

When the people dispersed, there was really no one around to talk to, and they could only chat with Wang Zhongzheng.

"Small... small..."

What can Wang Zhongzheng say?What dare to say?Wang Zhongzheng followed him when he was a child in the official family.

If you don’t want to be cruel, you will start to be shady at a few years old...~
"Forget it, you idiot don't understand..."

He couldn't tell whether it was because the crown prince made him feel relieved, or because the rebellious son came back, Zhao Xi's depression in his heart these days, after kicking those kicks, he felt a little relieved.

……

"The second prince and the fourth prince have visited the prince's mansion..."

"How do you say, is it true that they planned Annan and Beiliao?"

"It's true, it's not true. The team that the Fourth Prince recruited and bought horses has basically dispersed because of the matter of the Empress Dowager and Concubine Hui, as well as the death of the elders of the country."

"The theory of the era name is nonsense..."

"You can't say that. Both Guangwu and Zhenguan are kings with eternal names, and their year names will remain unchanged for 30 or [-] years. Now that the official family's year names are approaching, it can only show that Song Zhongxing is comparable to Guangwu Zhenguan. As for the Queen Mother It is far-fetched for Concubine Hui, Concubine Hui, and important minister Xinwang to argue with the reign title. Could it be that Guangwu Zhenguan didn't have any important ministers die?"

"I don't know who instigated these things?"

After the second prince returned to Bianliang, the entire court and Bianliang paid attention, so that they could tell what was going on and decide what to do.

Teahouses and restaurants are full of discussions...

"Don't talk about those stories, let's talk about the second prince's return to the East Palace and the fourth prince's visit to the east..."

"What? Is someone in the family involved in this matter?"

"Well, this matter has been a toss, I just retreated, and now I feel a little interesting..."

"I heard that the court didn't want to manage the Northern Liao Dynasty, but..."

The speaker looked around and said in a low voice, "I heard that some small island countries around Ryukyu have discovered gold mines."

"I also heard that the small island with gold mines belongs to Korea, and the imperial court can only test the waters in the form of a caravan..."

The following voices became lower and lower.

Zhao Xi is also pondering at this time, he is trying his best to think about the terrain and products of the entire East China Sea.

To tell the truth, although the fourth prince is also intentionally asking the fourth prince to go to the east to make trouble, this kind of trouble cannot be done in the name of the imperial court, nor will it receive obvious assistance from the imperial court.

Let alone managing Fusang and Goryeo, even if you want to establish a foothold on those islands in the East China Sea, it will not take a year or two. Without the support of money and food, I am afraid that you will just go out for a walk and come back in despair.

Now that Guochao already had such an understanding, Zhao Xi simply took advantage of the trend.

"Zirong, how many people can be released for exploration in the workshop city? It is best to be craftsmen with a firm stand and high loyalty."

According to the current saying, even those who are accomplished in exploration are still called craftsmen.

"Maximum five or six. The time is still a bit tight. In another ten years or so, Chen and Cunzhong can train some more."

Su Song knows many of Zhao Xi's thoughts.When they were still in the old guard camp, the officials had talked about this with a few of them.

Even if there is no such thing as the fourth prince, the imperial court will start to develop the small islands around the East China Sea in a few years, or after winning Beiliao.

"Let's try the waters first. It's easy for the court to alert people. Although Guochao's current strength doesn't care about anything, once Beiliao, Gaoli, Fusang, etc. are alerted, and Annan will provoke..."

"Xixia and Dali have just been recovered, and they cannot be said to be completely stable. Many things cannot be pushed aside."

This is the case.

This situation is not only due to the short period of time for the rise of the country, nor can it be attributed to Xixia and Dali's incomplete digestion, but because his sons have shown up, so he has to act hastily.

According to the setting in the early years, it should be after the settlement of the Northern Liao Dynasty and the stabilization of the northern border of the Great Song Dynasty, and then further develop the sea power, and even extend to Koryo and Fusang.

When the sons had these thoughts of seizing the heir, Zhao Xi had no choice but to make mistakes, so he spread the stall across the board.

Stretched!Is it because the reserves can't keep up...

"Officials, I think this may not be a good opportunity..."

After all, Wang Anshi is the prime minister, and Zhao Xi couldn't ignore Wang Anshi when discussing these matters.

In fact, in Zhao Xi's view, it is more conducive to governance for the monarch and ministers to be frank than to let the ministers guess their minds.

"Appreciate further details……"

"Officials, the country is not a military system, and there is no such thing as military merit. Although the imperial court has issued regulations on the placement of soldiers, the officials have been on the throne for 20 years, the new army has been promoted for nearly 20 years, and the conscription system has been implemented for more than ten years. years."

"Based on the imperial court's stipulation that non-commander envoys must retire at the age of 40, the placement of retired soldiers has become more and more difficult for the imperial court in recent years."

"The Guochao army is well-equipped. The pacification of Xixia and the recovery of Dali did not cause much damage to the Guochao army, and the military exploits are more collective. This has led to more and more retired soldiers."

"At the age of 40, they are all battle-tested and fierce soldiers. The court cannot arrange them properly, which is a hidden danger to the stability of the country. Naturally, the country cannot return to the situation of redundant troops in the previous emperor's time."

"Now, the second prince is in Annan, and the fourth prince is traveling eastward. It's a good thing for these soldiers who have received the imperial court's compensation but can't be resettled."

Wang Anshi is indeed a capable minister with an overall view, and he does have a considerable long-term vision.

These things, originally Zhao Xi planned to push forward after a few years...

How should I say this.

In Zhao Xi's heart, Beiliao is indeed a serious problem. Although Beiliao shows signs of decline, it has not yet reached its peak.

Once something aroused the vigilance of Beiliao, Goryeo, Fusang, and even Annan and other countries, it was bound to be a war, or a war between one dynasty and all the neighboring dynasties.

However, Xixia and Dali have a short period of time to take over, and they can't fully return to their hearts. Once this war is not suitable, it will really be a disaster for the country.

As for now, at least the second child was forced to die because of failure to win the heir apparent...

"Zhongzheng, send people to the East Palace..."

Zhao Xi quickly wrote a paragraph and let Wang Zhongzheng take it away.

"It seems that some excuses still have to be used for a while..."

Zhao Xi and his son's strategy did not shy away from Wang Anshi and Su Song.

Until now, he still couldn't tell whether it was a plan or an accident.

"Officials, doing so can give the court a buffer of at least three years. After three years, even if the second and fourth princes do nothing, the court should be able to stabilize Xixia and Dali. The imperial court can also take back Yanyun first!"
