Chapter 220 Zhao Kai, your annual salary is 6 million! Ask for a monthly ticket)
"Official family, Qin Hui committed suicide in the storm pavilion of the Censorate yesterday, fearing his crime and this is his suicide note!"
In the Jinling Imperial Palace, Chongzheng Hall, Yuwen Xuzhong, the chief censor, was reporting to Zhao Huan about Qin Hui's suicide, and he thoughtfully prepared a suicide note for Qin Hui.
The content of the suicide note is to confess his guilt, admitting that he defected to the Jin thief after being captured and acted as a spy in the Jin people after being released, and wanted to frame the loyal and kind, and betray the crimes of the Song Dynasty!
The famous detective Zhao Huan took Qin Hui's suicide note from Yuwen Xuzhong, then looked carefully twice, nodded and said, "It's indeed Qin Hui's handwriting! This is his suicide note, I really didn't expect that Qin Hui was actually a spy of the Jin thief! Fortunately, I discovered it early, otherwise the loyal and kind-hearted people in the court would have been framed!"
As he spoke, Zhao Huan put down Qin Hui's suicide note, then looked at the two rows of neatly dressed and solemnly loyal in the hall with a bright look.
Of course, all loyal and kind people know who Qin Hui is? It may be unfair to say that he is a spy sent by the Jin thief, but it is not unfair to say that he is traitorous and secretly understands the Jin Kingdom, and holds the Jin people's thighs to be an official in the Song Dynasty.
However, Zhao Huan, the official, killed Qin Hui so resolutely, was beyond everyone's expectations. Is this scaring Zhao Kai? Could it be that the official, for Zhao Kai's intimidation, forced Qin Hui, as the Minister of Rites, to death?
Is this too scary? Just then Zhao Kai comes here, why do you resist? All surrender! Is this official family really willing to be the queen Chen?
Zhao Huan took his eyes back and said lightly: "Since Qin Hui has confessed his guilt and committed suicide fearlessly, there is no need to implicate his family. He seems to have no children, so why not place his wife on Guangnan East Road for a lifetime!"
Qin Hui’s death does not count, his wife will be released from Lingnan!
Fortunately, Qin Hui had no son (Qin Hui's wife didn't give birth to a baby, and she was very fierce, so Qin Hui had no queen), otherwise she would be killed!
The ministers in the palace all trembled in their hearts, and remembered how Zhao Huan dealt with Cai Jing and Cai You and his son. It seems that this official's coward is to the enemy, and he is very cruel to his own people, so don't mess with him.
When Zhao Huan saw that the ministers in the hall were all silent, he smiled bitterly and said, "As soon as Qin Hui died, there will be several years of peace in the southeast. I will plan to stop giving the annual monies to the Northern Dynasties and then increase the salary to the Royal Crown Brother of Luoyang!"
Zhao Kai and Zhao Huan, the brothers Zhao Kai, who are quite good at talking to themselves, calls Zhao Huan the King of Wu, while Zhao Huan said that Zhao Kai was the crown prince and now he has to pay his salary to the crown prince!
"How much is appropriate?" Zhao Huan muttered, "The prince's temperament is similar to that of the late emperor. He likes Fengheng Yuda! This way, give him three million stones of rice a year, so that he can eat more! Give him another silk, tea, and copper worth three million guan! What do you think?"
Zhao Huan actually completely agreed to all the requests made by Zhao Kai without bargaining!
Qin Hui was killed! The Jin Kingdom broke up with friendship! He also gave him a salary of 6 million yuan a year!
The ministers in Chongzheng Hall said to himself: You, Zhao Huan, are so cowardly, that Zhao Kai should not "first south and then north". Although after eating the entire Jiangnan, there will be more than six million a year. However, during the process of going to Jiangnan, it is not only Zhao Kai who is full, but also Zhao Kai's elite soldiers and generals!
Before these vicious and vicious people went to Jiangnan, they were elite soldiers and generals. After walking around Jiangnan, they were full and they could not say how much energy they had in fighting fierce battles.
Not to mention the distance, just to say that Tong Guan’s useful Western Army was OK before Ping Fang La. The Jin soldiers could not defeat them, but they would not be beaten by the Liao army, which was only one breath left!
But after returning from Jiangnan, they fell to this level!
In history, the Later Zhou Dynasty ancestors also opposed the south and then north, and advocated the north and then south. They should be afraid that the soldiers would fall into money after getting rich, but it really made the vicious fighting men get rich overnight, which seemed to be quite troublesome.
So everyone’s good days are probably still long!
Of course, the ministers would not be able to live a good life. Qin Hui, who represented the interests of the Great Jin Kingdom in Song Dynasty, was killed by suicide. Now Zhao Kai’s annual “salary” of six million yuan is deducted. What should I do if Zhao Kai brings troops to the army to ask for salary?
So the loyal and kind-hearted people of the Song Dynasty expressed their support!
"The official family is wise, and the Crown Brother will definitely do his best to guard the borders of the court. The court can live in Jinling and rest assured!"
"The official family can exchange for peace for the ten southeastern states with a salary of only 6 million yuan, which is really brilliant!"
"This is a blessing for the people of the ten southeastern states!"
"The official family is wise, our dynasty will revive, and the world will be peaceful, just around the corner!"
Listening to everyone's bullshit, Zhao Huan felt bad. He was good everywhere now, and he had no problem at all. The official family also thought it was very interesting, but he didn't want to be taken down by Zhao Kai, the traitor brother, and then killed him one day!
Thinking of this, Zhao Huan coughed, and asked the loyal and kind-hearted people below to shut up quickly.
Zhongliang below saw that Zhao Huan's face was unwilling, and he was so conscious that he didn't say anything.
Zhao Huan said again: "Although the prince is in charge of the Central Plains now, we cannot be unprepared for the Jin thieves. After all, our dynasty borders the Jin thieves in the Huaihe area, with a long defense line and may be attacked by the Jin thieves at any time! What are the corresponding strategies for you?"
All the nobles were smart people, and immediately understood that the official wanted to struggle to survive and kill Qin Hui. Giving Zhao Kai six million salary should be a delaying strategy.
If you have been slowing down for three or five years, you can step up your training!
Nie Shan, the official in charge of the Privy Council, immediately reported: "Report to the official family, the Huai River is long and the troops are stationed everywhere, relying on ships to dispatch. The season of abundant water is good, but it is difficult to respond to dry water. I think another cavalry should be trained, and the number does not need too many, and it is enough to have 10,000 or 20,000 people."
"Ten or 20,000 cavalry?" Zhao Huan frowned, "Where did the horse come from? Where did the soldiers come from?"
Nie Shan said: "Reported to the officials, most of the four armies now have northern soldiers who are good at riding and shooting, and among the people who fled from the north, there are also heroes who are good at riding horses. The court can recruit them with generous salaries.
As for war horses, officials from border states such as Ezhou, Guangzhou, Huangzhou, Shouzhou, Bozhou, and Haozhou can try to buy them. As long as they are willing to pay high prices, they should be able to buy good horses.
In addition, the imperial court can also find sparsely populated areas on Jinghu South Road, open horse farms, and breed good horses bought from the border."
Zhao Huan nodded, "It's so good. The East and West governments will come up with specific strategies as soon as possible. The situation is critical now and you should not neglect it."
After giving the order, Zhao Huan said again: "Do you have any good ideas to offer?"
Zhao Mingcheng, who had just been promoted to the position of the tutor of the tutor, came out to report: "The official family is now not suitable for advancing due to flooding in the west section of the Huaihe River. They can make long-term plans, such as choosing dangerous terrain, building fortresses, garrisoning new troops, and at the same time, they ordered Guangzhou, Shouzhou, Haozhou, Sizhou and other prefectures to recruit strong soldiers and civilians in the village and train strictly.
However, Chuzhou in the lower reaches of the Huai River, Haizhou north of the Lianshui Army and Haizhou north of the Lianshui Army are urgently needed! Especially Haizhou and Lianshui Army are both located in Huaibei. If they are abandoned, they will be obtained by the Jin thieves and used as the basis for crossing the Huai River. If they want to defend as a barrier to the Huai River, they will urgently need to send good generals to add troops and defend properly."
Zhao Huan thought for a while, "Haizhou and Lianshui Army were backing the sea, leaning against the Huai River while leaning against the mountains. We should not give up. Perhaps we can set up two places in Hebei and set up Huaibei Pacification Envoy to serve as Huaibei Pacification Envoy?"
The Left Prime Minister of the Shangshu and the Minister of Revenue, the old minister Zhang Que came out to report: "Officials, I recommend Liu Yu to serve as the pacification of Huaibei."
"Liu Yu?" Zhao Huan frowned, "Is it the Hebei farmer who worked as a Hebei Xing in Hebei and ran to Jinling with Li Gang and Li Lu?"
Liu Yu is one of the few Jinshi who is truly considered a farmer who is "as a farmer in the morning and ascends to the emperor's hall in the evening".
It is precisely because of this background that Liu Yu was not very generous in the officialdom and was always the object of ridicule. Moreover, when he was young, he stole the property of his classmates because his family was too poor, and he was considered to be poor in character, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan looked down on him, so this guy has never had any bad luck since he ran to Jinling.
However, Zhang Xu looked down on this fellow Hebei and knew that he was a military expert, so he recommended this person to Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan didn't think much about Haizhou in Huaibei, and the Lianshui Army was not very good at all. I just sent someone to do it!
After arranging Liu Yu to become an official in Huaibei, Zhao Huan saw that the ministers could not come up with any ideas, so he ended the court discussion and then asked someone to call the three brothers Zhao Shu, Zhao Qi and Zhao Xu who were recuperating in the mansion.
"Fifth brother, sixth brother, seventh brother, I have already agreed with the ministers that I will pay my third brother a salary!"
When the three kings heard this, they were a little amused. Zhao Kai has become an official, so you still need to pay your salary?
"Brother, how much did you send him?" Zhao Shu asked.
Zhao Huan stretched out his right hand and made a "six" gesture.
"Sixty thousand?" Zhao Qi asked with a smile.
"Six million!" Zhao Huan said seriously, "This is the salary to the Crown Brother! Is it enough?"
You are talking about the annual monies as salary!
The three kings knew it, but no one pointed it out, and they all nodded and said "enough". How could a six million annual salary not be enough?
Even emperors don’t have this number!
Zhao Huan smiled and said, "I think it's enough. Who of you is working hard? Let me tell my third brother about the news, and at the same time, I will talk to him about the opening of a court in Ezhou and Hanyang Army. If there is any matter between the two sides in the future, I will discuss it in this court, and the six million annual salary he will be given will be delivered at this court."
Zhao Xu is the youngest among the three brothers and has the best health. He couldn't bear to let the two brothers continue running, so he stood up and said, "Brother, let's go again!"
Chapter completed!
