The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 35 The Rise of Gao Lian
Zhou Tong and his party hurried down the mountain again, Yue Fei was very excited along the way.He never imagined that during a visit to Liquan Mountain, he would get a magical weapon and a military book, which not only contained the method of marching troops, but also a set of marksmanship, how could he not be overjoyed.

Zhao Gou and the others were also happy for Yue Fei. Everyone stared at Yue Fei holding the Liquan sharp gun in his hand with wide eyes, as if he had obtained a beloved treasure.

Zhou Tong looked at the child-like Yue Fei lovingly. He knew that Yue Fei had a steady heart. After getting the Liquan gun, he seemed to return to that lively boy and said with a smile: "Pengju, you have this gun. If you practice marksmanship well, you will definitely go beyond being a teacher and reach a higher level!

Yue Fei was pleasantly surprised: "Is it really possible?"

"Seriously!" Zhou Tong said with a smile, "Brother is not only proficient in Shaolin martial arts, but also learned from a hundred schools of thought. If you walk in the rivers and lakes, you may be more famous than me. However, brother has a quiet personality and loves Buddhism. You only want to promote the Buddhadharma, but you don't have that kind of thought. Now, he has passed on a set of military tactics to you, which can be regarded as a piece of good luck for you, I hope you can practice it well."

Yue Fei nodded solemnly, and Zhao Gou thought to himself: "In history, Marshal Yue's marksmanship is as good as Yang Zaixing's, and he knows the art of marching and forming an army. In this way, the military book that the old monk gave him has played a good role. I just don't know which one is more powerful than the one passed down to me by my master."

Zhou Tong and the others walked along the way back. From then on, Zhao Gou, Yue Fei and the others knew that they must practice martial arts hard.At the same time, an earth-shattering event happened in the Song Dynasty.Song Huizong Zhao Ji went through many screenings and decided to reuse Gao Qiu and abandon Tong Guan.

"Brother Huang, do you really decide to use Gao Qiu?" Cai Wang Zhaosi frowned, and asked in a low voice: "In my opinion, this person is even worse than Cai Jing. After several months According to the analysis of my younger brother, this person is introverted, deep, and well versed in the way of being an official.

"My brother's suggestion, this person should not be reused, so as not to cause cholera in the Song Dynasty. After all, he was born in a poor family, and it took less than ten years for the Gaoju to be in his current position. Moreover, this person is familiar with Xiao Wangdu Taiwei, If you are capable of writing and martial arts, you have to guard against it. If there is another Cai Jing, then the situation in the Song Dynasty will be even more chaotic, and I hope Brother Huang will think twice."

"Thirteenth brother, have you forgotten what my original intention is?" Song Huizong smiled slightly, "I just want the Song Dynasty to be more chaotic. A new system. Although the century-old foundation of the Great Song Dynasty is the bet, if it wins, the Great Song Dynasty will become a new Great Song Dynasty; if it loses, the country will be ruined and the family will perish."

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can't catch the tiger's cubs. The current strategy can only be ruined. If you don't do this, the situation facing the Song Dynasty will never be broken. The dispute between the two parties in the DPRK and China has become more and more fierce. It is impossible to really dismiss them all. Investigate. They are my people, whether they are reformers or conservatives, after all, they are for the sake of the Song Dynasty. I can't shout their wishes. I can only choose to give in and choose one person to reuse. Only then can this situation be broken. "

"I decided to reuse Gao Qiu, firstly because he has an irresistible relationship with Xiao Wangdu Taiwei, secondly because he is exquisite in all aspects, compared with Cai Jing, and thirdly because he is loyal to me, maybe because he wants to gain power The government and the opposition, then I will help him. At least, he will not be as crazy as Cai Jing, wanting to launch a palace change."

"No matter how you say it, Wang Shen was once a dignified son-in-law, but he was relegated by his father because he attracted bees and butterflies. Since he recommended this person, then he and he must be in the same boat, or have the same preferences. And, Wang Shen is also a master of Danqing calligraphy, and I had a good relationship with him before I ascended the throne."

"If I'm not wrong, Gao Qiu must have known the relationship between me and him, so he would take refuge in Little Wangdu Taiwei. Then, he used his power to contact me. It just so happens that I need to observe carefully at this time. So I communicated with him a lot, and found that Gao Li has some talent and learning, and I also know that he has a deep mind, but none of this will hinder my determination to use him, only by relying on him can I check and balance the dispute between the two parties."

"At the beginning, when I was still King Duan, he came into contact with me, played with me, knew martial arts, and had a good literary talent, so the little king Du Taiwei recommended him to me. Firstly, he wanted to win my favor. It's good."

"Born in a poor background, he also knows the ways of the world, so that he can thrive in the officialdom and rise up step by step. At the beginning, when I ascended the throne, I sent him to the army. Unexpectedly, in the army, he also had a good relationship with his superiors; later, I left him Bianjing took office, and the result is still the same!"

"Whether it's in the army or in the court, he has a good relationship with his superiors, and even handles his subordinates in an orderly manner. I know that his talents are not limited to this. He is far more exquisite than Cai Jing, but he does have some talents."

"At the beginning, I used Cai Jing a lot, and promoted him to a noble position. Firstly, I indulged him, and secondly, he had some talents of his own."

"In order to prevent Gao Lian from becoming the second Cai Jing, I will use him heavily, but will not give him too many ranks, the highest is no more than Taiwei. However, the world is unpredictable, and the only way to do it is to prepare in advance."

Cai Wang Zhaosi was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Brother Huang, Gao Qiu is really the same kind of person as Cai Jing. I'm afraid that at that time he will not be able to control it, causing the government and the public to be shaken, the people living in dire straits, and complaining."

"Cai Jing's unscrupulous behavior is due to his high position and authority, and the connivance of the emperor's brother. If Gao Qiu becomes the second Cai Jing, it will be too late to regret it; my brother thinks it's impossible to gamble!"

"The Great Song Dynasty is already in turmoil. In recent years, bandits and bandits have been rampant and have oppressed the village. People's lives have become more difficult, especially in the border areas between the two countries. There are many neighboring countries that are disturbing, and it is even more miserable."

"If there is a second Cai Jing, there will be a lot of public grievances, and there will be a rebellion. In this way, the Song Dynasty will be in danger, so the minister thinks this is inappropriate, and the emperor should think twice."

Song Huizong sighed: "I don't know! However, the fate of the Song Dynasty is hanging by a thread, and only this action can break the rules. For the future, I can only choose to gamble once, and I have to hold the determination of a strong man to break his arm. Endure the pain for a while, in exchange for a peaceful and prosperous world, everything is worth it!"

"Brother Huang..." Cai Wang Zhaosi persuaded bitterly.

Song Huizong smiled knowingly, and said: "Thirteenth brother, I understand your intentions! Even if it is a bad smell for thousands of years, don't worry about it. If you care, I will not choose this path from the beginning."

Zhao Si smiled wryly again and again, and sighed deeply, he knew it was useless to say anything else.However, he never thought of what he said today, and it became a proverb, so let's not talk about it for now.

Therefore, Song Huizong began to reuse Gao Qiu.Within half a year, he was promoted to Taiwei.Firstly, Gao Qiu himself has some skills, and secondly, Song Huizong deliberately reused him, which made his official position skyrocket. He even discussed with Gao Qiu on all matters in the court.

The ministers of Chinese and military affairs of the court all attached themselves to his influence one after another, just like the stars holding the moon, more and more people were following his power, and even Gao Qiu himself felt in a trance.

He was still an unknown person before, but in a blink of an eye he became a captain of the court and a celebrity beside the emperor. When he walked, he walked with his head held high, his back straight, and he was full of vigor.

Song Huizong was expressionless, looking calmly at Gao Qiu who was in high spirits, and then at the civil and military ministers gathered around him, thinking: "Next is the real beginning, don't disappoint my expectations!..."
