Chapter 91 Conversation with Uncle and Nephew

Chapter 91 Uncle and Nephew Dialogue

The next day, in Wende Hall, Song Renzong frowned and looked at the memorial. After watching for a while, he stood up impatiently and paced under the stage.

Li Yonghe, who was standing outside the door with a blank expression on his face, looked in, and asked, "Officials, why are you so worried?"

Song Renzong looked at Li Yonghe, who was honest and honest, stopped, hesitated, and sighed, "Uncle! The world is uneasy! I just took power and encountered a major disaster in Jingdong. Now there is a civil war in Yizhou. It is said that it was incited by the Maitreya Cult, which is really hateful."

Li Yonghe frowned and asked, "Is there a large number of rebels?"

Song Renzong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's not too many. The memorials sent by the local government claimed that there were 2,000 or 3,000 people. Zhang Xianggong said that the local government was not effective in suppressing bandits, which was probably an exaggeration. It is estimated that it would be more than 1,000. The actual situation is hard to say now. I have sent people to investigate, but this time it will take more than half a month."

Li Yonghe asked: "Whether it is two or three thousand people or just one thousand, just let the local government send troops to wipe out it out! Why should the officials be so worried?"

After finding out that he said these words, he felt much more comfortable. Song Renzong was also very reluctant to worry about Li Yong and his relatives, and said, "I don't know what I know! The terrain of Yizhou is complex and the mountains on three sides are damaged. There are four mountains in the state, Lushan, Yishan, Mengshan and Nishan. These rebels were entrenched in Mengshan. They went east to Linyi, the capital of Yizhou, and one or two miles away, and Feixian County. The local area was afraid that when the attack, they would attack one of the rebels and control their troops. The most important thing is that these rebels are entrenched now!"

Li Yonghe was surprised. "Official family, how can you explain this? Why is it okay if there are traitors entrenched in the whole place?"

Song Renzong smiled bitterly and said, "It's also a shame to me, the official family. Now there are disasters between Jingdong and Jingdong, and locusts are appearing. Once these rebels flee, they will not have a Huang Chao Rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty, but they will also harm both sides! In particular, these rebels are afraid that they are good at inciting the Maitreya Cult, which is very good at inciting people's hearts, so it is even more difficult to deal with this!"

Li Yonghe was shocked and said, "It's actually true! Why didn't the official quickly order the nearby prefectures and counties to send troops to support? It is best to wipe out the thieves as soon as possible!"

Song Renzong sighed and said, "It is easy to issue an edict. The question is who will be ordered to command the troops? No one can recommend the candidate!"

Li Yonghe was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Song Renzong was helpless. This year, the government and the country changed drastically. The prime ministers can be said to be newly appointed, and they were all trying hard to get familiar with the situation and capture power. Most of the middle and upper-level officials were promoted and kept by Liu E. The prime minister and Song Renzong were both wary and distrustful of them.

Of course, it is not without the candidates. It is enough to send a prime minister to the side. You need qualifications and ability... Well, if you can't handle even thousands of rebels, it will be a good thing for the prime minister to be dismissed from office now.

It’s just the biggest problem, the prime ministers don’t want to move! As I said before, the political situation of the court has changed drastically, and it’s time to capture power! If I really get to the place and my status has not been consolidated yet, who knows how long it will take to suppress the bandits? After returning a year and a half, I don’t know if there is any position for you! Let’s take a step back, even if I have to come back, the yamen in which I was in charge of, I don’t know how many confidants I have been placed in.

As for the other hand, it was a system issue in the Song Dynasty! The highest administrative level of the Song Dynasty was naturally the court (central), and there were various routes below, equivalent to the current province, with the state below the road and the county below the state.

Logically speaking, if a rebellion occurred in Yizhou and Yizhou could not be resolved, it should be handled by the chief of the Lu. However, the Song Dynasty was afraid that the separatist situation of the vassal states would occur, and the power of the "Lu" was very little. The chief was named the Transshipment Commissioner. In addition to mastering the financial responsibilities of all or several routes, he also served as the duties of inspecting local officials, maintaining public order, counting criminal prisons, and enhancing talents. However, there was also the power to divide the Transshipment Commissioner of the Criminal Prison and the Pacification Commissioner below.

In military terms, the Transportation Envoy is a decoration. Only then do you need to ask for help from the court and let the court send someone to take charge of the overall situation.

Li Yonghe sighed and said, "It's such a troublesome!"

After just a pause, Li Yonghe said, "It's just an official family, you can actually send two people to complement each other!"

Song Renzong paused and asked, "Full each other?"

Li Yonghe nodded and said, "The defense of warriors should not be underestimated. In this way, one can send a general to the scene, and on the other hand, a loyal person can be sent as a pacifier, supervise and assist, so that the place can be settled!"

Song Renzong nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's so good, but there are not many people who can trust it. I'm afraid no one can take office if he can serve as a pacifier!"

Li Yonghe gritted his teeth, knelt down suddenly, and said, "I risk my life to say something!"

Song Renzong was startled and quickly held Li Yonghe with both hands, blaming him, "What's wrong with uncle? I'll say anything, why do you have to do this?"

Li Yonghe said: "This fact is a bit too much, and I don't dare to say it!"

Song Renzong comforted him: "Say it! Say it! Why would I blame my uncle?"

Li Yonghe paused, and then said sincerely with a look of understanding: "The King of Changsha can be trusted!"

Song Renzong's face, which was originally somewhat anticipated, immediately stiffened. In fact, if he wanted to use Zhao Jin's idea, Song Renzong had not been unfair, but had discussed it with several ministers. However, they all opposed it strongly, and used the matter of brothers killing each other for the throne in previous dynasties to warn Song Renzong.

When Li Yonghe saw that Song Renzong did not speak, he knew that Song Renzong was hesitant. He tried harder: "When the official family forgot that when the empress dowager passed away, who did not sleep late at night, was not afraid of the wind and cold, and just a wooden stick, he resolutely waited for his brother?"

Li Yonghe's words immediately reminded Song Renzong of that night, when it was snowing heavily outside, and a young man stood firmly in the wind and snow. He also thought of the pair of cold hands he felt that morning that made people feel.

Song Renzong couldn't help but think of what Zhao Qin said that morning. A smile from the bottom of his heart was blooming on his innocent face and said sincerely: "Brother, what are you saying? Father and son are fighting, and tiger-killing brothers. Alang has never seen his father's face before. The emperor is already Alang's only relative in this world, except his mother. If Alang doesn't protect the emperor, he will inevitably have who can protect the emperor?"

Song Renzong paused his lips, and finally turned into a sigh, shook his head and said, "Uncle, let's go ahead first! I must think about it carefully!"

Li Yonghe hesitated for a while, nodded slowly and stepped back.

I don’t know how long it took, but Song Renzong sat quietly on the dragon throne. Suddenly Xu Chen came in and reported: “The official family, Chen Lin, the envoy of the Three Divisions, is looking for a meeting outside!”

Chen Lin? Song Renzong instinctively felt disgusted, but then his heart moved, and the words came to his mouth, and he changed his mouth: "Xuan!"
