Chapter 6 Human Heart (Continued)



Liu Ziyu frowned slightly, as if he didn't want to get involved in this topic, but he had to ask: "So, you want me to stay and strengthen the center?"

"What else?" Zhang Jun smiled helplessly. "In the current situation, as a minister, I can't choose a concubine for the emperor and persuade him to pay less attention to state affairs and spend more time in the sun, right? The only thing I can do is to recommend talents as much as possible, so that people like you, Yan Xiu, can stay by the emperor's side and help him make plans, so that he can do things with less twists and turns..."

Liu Ziyu sighed, as if he was convinced, but he still couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

"No matter what, the safety of the country now depends on this person. Only when the emperor is stable can the country be stable!" Zhang Jun said earnestly. "I myself would also like to go out and govern a place and do something big, but at least we have to wait until the emperor is completely settled and has rules and regulations in place before we can do that, right?"

After hearing this, Liu Ziyu could only nod his head reluctantly and said no more.

Moreover, Zhang Jun's remarks were mostly based on his own conjectures. Moreover, as the emperor's personal confidant, the so-called top confidant among the civil officials, his stance was biased towards the emperor. Even though Liu Ziwu had been on very good terms with him these days, he did not completely believe him.

However, there was one sentence that Zhang Deyuan said that hit the nail on the head, which was that the emperor who traveled west after the victory in Shouzhou was obviously a little uneasy and didn't know what to do... This was understandable, because Zhao Jiu had never seriously been a proper official, and didn't know how to be an official.

As soon as he came, he was immediately isolated by several people. After he finally broke free, he just sat there waiting for Li Gang. Li Gang came and acted like a puppet. After Li Gang fell ill, he was just feeling extremely depressed, so he decided to throw away the jar and ran to Huaishang to fight a battle with the help of Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun... After winning the battle, this Emperor Zhao also calmed down. Logically, he should have been a good official. However, on the one hand, the roads were unstable and Nanyang could not be settled, so no one had the heart to teach him how to do things; on the other hand, the Battle of Shouzhou had added some color to Emperor Zhao, and not everyone had the courage to teach him how to be an official, so he has the current impetuous situation.

And this was precisely an important reason why Emperor Zhao had foolishly decided to keep Wanyan Yinshuke. He seemed to have determined that the only "serious thing" in resisting the Jin army was fighting, so he was somewhat happy to hear about the enemy.

Back to the present, Emperor Zhao himself, perhaps because of stupidity or because he was in the middle of a situation, did not think so much. On the contrary, he slept soundly until the afternoon and received a good news, which cheered him up - it was because the governor of Tokyo, deputy commander of the Grand Marshal's Office of the Heavenly Army, and Privy Councilor Zong Ze came to make another memorial, and the content of the memorial was exciting.

It was very clear in the letter from Grandpa Zong that Huazhou was completely recovered by him, and Qingzhou and Weizhou in the east of Jingdong Road were also definitely abandoned by the Jin people. Now they are occupied by a man named Li Cheng... In short, the large-scale withdrawal of the Jin people is a foregone conclusion. As long as Emperor Zhao occupies the city well and guards it safely, there is no need to worry about Wanyan Yinshu. The latter may continue to attack, but if he fails, he will definitely go north.

Of course, at the end of the letter, one cannot help but ask Emperor Zhao again whether he will come to Tokyo or not.

Not to mention the important information in the first half, just the politeness in the latter part almost made Zhao Jiu cry for joy... You have to know, it has been more than half a year since he traveled through time. Except for the period when Li Gang was in power, Grandpa Zong has sent twelve invitation letters to him, Emperor Zhao, asking him to return to the old capital to settle down, an average of one letter every half a month.

The previous eleven letters were all about national justice and loyalty and filial piety, and they were all about "the great unification of our ancestors is hard to achieve" and "a small palace has been built for the two saints, and the emperor will live in the old palace." Every sentence was accurately poking someone's spine, and the moral kidnapping was so smooth that it was difficult for Emperor Zhao to explain. In addition, Tokyo already had so many soldiers and so much food and fodder, and was waiting for the emperor to come here to reorganize the six divisions to cross the river to the north!

But this time, it was the first time that Emperor Zhao had received such a polite invitation.

What does this mean? This means that after the battle of Shouzhou, and after Emperor Zhao's swift and decisive actions after the battle, all the way to Ruyang, the world's number one general who was stationed in Tokyo in the north finally began to trust Emperor Zhao!

The only reason he was embarrassed was that he kept on inviting her. Of course, it was understandable that a man in his seventies could be a little bit arrogant.

All in all, for the whole world, in the spring of the second year of Jianyan, the Jin Dynasty prospered and expanded further, while the Song Dynasty declined and lost control further... After all, the two routes of Jingdong, Jingxi, and Guanxi were swept, with large-scale casualties. Civilians from all over the country moved south, and the city's storage was plundered. At the same time, several cities in Hebei that insisted on resisting the war were constantly being eliminated.

However, if we only talk about Emperor Zhao and the Emperor, although there are still some disturbances at the moment, the overall situation is still positive.

This is mainly because the troops have been gathered and people's hearts have been united to a certain extent. In addition, according to the remarks of Zong Ze, Han Shizhong and Liu Ziyu, as long as they deal with it properly, Wanyan Yinshu will not be a big problem here. Then, by then, it will be clear that he will be able to establish himself in Nanyang.

The significance of a stable secondary capital to the people at all levels is self-evident.

The situation developed in the next few days in a similar way. Without mentioning the ups and downs outside, let's just talk about the situation here. With the help of the people sent by Emperor Zhao to recruit people, many defeated soldiers, bandits, and rebel forces in Caizhou surrendered one after another, and then accepted the emperor's offer of amnesty.

Among them, although Han Shizhong was not in a hurry to unify and reorganize because Yin Shu's movements were unknown, everyone's sense of security was significantly improved when they saw the map change from enemy territory to their own territory.
