The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 624 Loyalty or traitor?
"Zhu Bian!"

"The students are here!"

"Are you a Tai student?"

"Go back to the emperor, the student is right!"

"In that case, then I will seal you Feng Yilang!"

"Thank you, Emperor Ron!"

After Zhu Bian went down, Zhao Gou called several people to confer titles one after another. He didn't ask too much, and directly awarded them official positions.Not only Zhao Yougong couldn't understand, even the six books were a bit strange, only Zhao Gou knew it.In fact, these people came here by self-recommendation. Zhao Gou knew their names and their conduct, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"Qin Hui!"

"Chen is here!"

Qin Mi is one of the twenty or so people, and also the last one. He is also the object of Zhao Gou's key observation, and he is also an important person for this self-recommendation.Others may not know it, but only Zhao Gou knew that Qin Hui was a well-known treacherous minister in history.

According to historical records, Qin Hui and Emperor Huiqin were taken captive. Later, Nangui was reused. He not only served as the prime minister, but also successively served as the prince of the state. One person under ten thousand people controlled the government, and even killed Yue Fei. One of the important culprits.

Even though Qin Hui was a treacherous official in history, he was also a man of real talent and learning.Zhao Gou looked up and saw that his face was yellow and thin, his cheekbones were protruding, his cheeks were sunken, and he had a beard, so he knew that he was living in a difficult life. This time, Zhao Gou wanted to know why Qin Hui came here, for his name or For profit.

"You have served as the official of Taixue, Zuo Sijian, and Yushi Zhongcheng. You must know a lot about the Jin soldiers' invasion of the Song Dynasty. How about you talk about it?" Zhao Gou said slowly, He wanted to know what Qin Hui was thinking at this time.

Qin Hui replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Reporting to the emperor, I thought that the Jin soldiers invaded the Song Dynasty in the south, and they should focus on peace talks and supplemented by war. Our dynasty is just waiting for prosperity. First, the two emperors of Huiqin were captured and left. , the common people were filled with righteous indignation, and everyone in the court was panicked."

"The emperor ascended the throne in accordance with the mandate of heaven, and later implemented Wang Anshi's reform to strengthen the country. I dare not make rash comments on this matter. However, it must be a pain for the people to fight with our Song Dynasty with Jin soldiers. If you fight for years, it will not only consume national power , It consumes a huge amount of materials, not to mention laboring people and money, and the border lands of the Song Dynasty are even more raging, this will damage the prestige of the emperor, and even lose the hearts of the people."

Zhao Gou then asked: "What if the Jin Man asks me to bow my head and profess my vassal, pay the old coins, and pay compensation for the land?"

Qin Hui said: "Our dynasty is the celestial dynasty. The Great Song Dynasty has a vast territory. Since ancient times, the countries of the Central Plains have been the hegemony. Even though our dynasty has internal and external troubles, it is still the Celestial Dynasty. It is absolutely impossible to bow down to the Jin people, and it will damage the great Song Tianwei. "

"Pay the old coins, this is a necessary condition for peace negotiations. My Song Dynasty can pay the old coins to the Jin Dynasty, but I can't cede the land for compensation. The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were taken back from the Liao people by the emperor. It's not handing over, this matter is absolutely impossible."

"According to the requirements of the Jin people, isn't my dynasty a man with my tail between my legs? How do the people of the world treat my court officials and officials? Wouldn't it be even more popular. Therefore, the humble minister thought that paying the old coins would be a To ensure peace on the border between the two countries, this request can be granted, but other requests must not be granted.”

"Well said!" Pan Lianggui couldn't help but praise loudly.

Qin Hui's thoughts were somewhat similar to Zhao Gou's, as if he could see through Zhao Gou's thoughts.At the beginning, when the envoys of the Jin Dynasty came and took the two emperors of Huiqin as hostages, Zhao Gou hesitated to ask for compensation.

Zhao Gou could ignore Zhao Huan's life or death, but Huizong's life he had to consider.Because Huizong was his father and was born as a son of man, he had to be a bit scruples.In addition, his mother, Concubine Wei Xian, passed out several times after knowing about it, and told Zhao Gou to rescue the second emperor and return to the court.

Concubine Wei Xian is not a queen, but Zhao Gou's biological mother, so he cannot make Webster the queen mother.Moreover, Concubine Wei Xian has long been indifferent to these false names, and doesn't care about them at all.Therefore, Zhao Gou did not force his mother, and being accompanied by Xing Bingyi and Li Shishi made Webster's grief much less.

Webster still cared about Huizong's safety in his heart, and he was worried all day long.At this time, the envoys of the Jin Dynasty came, and Zhao Gou hesitated.If it weren't for other people's firm opposition, I'm afraid Zhao Gou really agreed.It's just that the last condition cannot be agreed to, and the rest are easy to discuss.

Now Qin Hui's words have won the approval of Zhao Yougong, Liubu Shangshu and others. They all think that Qin Hui is not afraid of life and death, and fights hard with reason, which is a talent.When Zhao Gou asked this person alone, everyone understood what he had done.

"Is it a loyal minister?"

At this moment, Zhao Gou couldn't tell whether Qin Hui was a loyal or a traitor. What history said and what he saw now were completely different things, which made him very melancholy.Based on what Qin Hui just said, he is indeed a rare talent. If he uses it properly, it will benefit the country and the people, and if he uses it improperly, it will harm the country and the people.

If Qin Hui is a loyal minister, then he can make good use of it; if he has been hiding his inner thoughts, he must personally command the battle with the Jin soldiers in the future, so that when he comes to the court, he will be in charge of the court alone, I am afraid that it will be really dangerous at that time up.

Zhao Gou thought about it again and again, and decided to stay in the capital for the time being, so that he could always pay attention to his movements and take precautions early.If he is a treacherous and evil person, there is no need to worry at that time. If he is really a loyal minister, then it will be a good thing.

"I have promoted you to be a political adviser, and you can participate in the resolution of all major affairs in the court!"

Qin Hui was overjoyed, restrained the ecstasy in his heart, his face remained unchanged, and replied respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty Long En! Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Everyone withdrew, and Zhao Gou asked the Ministry of Officials to register all these people in order to consider their daily political achievements.In addition, Zhao Gou ordered that only Qin Hui stay in the capital, and all the others would be sent to prefectures and counties to serve in other places. After some achievements, they would be transferred to the capital as officials.

"Second brother, send someone to keep an eye on Qin Hui all the time!"

Zhao Yougong was stunned, and said: "Your Majesty, didn't you just now..."

"Don't ask too much about this matter, just do what I say."

Zhao Gou didn't explain, he can't say that he came from later generations, history records that he is a treacherous official, if you know that he didn't do anything at all, just kill him directly, it really doesn't make sense, only surveillance, after discovery line processing.

Seeing that Zhao Gou didn't want to say more, Zhao Yougong didn't ask any more questions, and followed the instructions.Moreover, Zhao Yougong not only did that, but also sent people into Qin Hui's residence, and even put in the people around him, and everything was done seamlessly.

It wasn't until this moment that Zhao Gou understood why Emperor Gaozong in history favored Qin Hui so much. He did have some abilities, and he was indeed a talent for governing the country.Now Qin Hui has not shown that he is the main battle, he is still the peace faction, but his remarks are also very appropriate, only by using it first can we know whether it is true or not
