Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty Jin Guodong Shi Xiaofu

PS Seeing that many readers are worried about my status, I will report a letter to give you a message. Everyone doesn’t have to worry at all, just look at it with confidence.

Wanyan Zongpan was also very depressed. The local nobles and gentlemen who were left by the Liao Kingdom were relatively powerful in the Jin Kingdom.

This created a certain resistance to his transformation in the Jin Dynasty. The policies of the Jin Dynasty's court were not usually issued.

For example, he wanted to imitate Zhao Huan's tax reform, abolish corvee service, and reduce taxes, but after such a policy came to Beijing, it was like a piece of mud thrown into the sea.

He also established the Dajin Bank, but due to the immaturity of printing technology, fake Jiaozi was rampant among the people.

He wanted to release his wealth to the public through infrastructure construction, and also established a Ministry of Commerce to specialize in commerce.

Moreover, there is also a Shangyu Department under the Ministry of Commerce, which is responsible for the recruitment and management of emerging trading companies.

However, all the recruited were trading companies established by local nobles and gentlemen, which led to a large amount of wealth falling into the hands of these people.

The social structure of the Jin Dynasty has not changed much in recent years. The allocation of resources is the same as before, except that the total social wealth has increased.

Social contradictions and turmoil are becoming more and more intense.

Local aristocrats and gentlemen became stronger and stronger, and began to use means to cover up the monitoring of local governments in the Jin Dynasty, and there was a serious information gap.

Even Wanyan Zongpan himself didn't know that many local trading companies were firmly attracted by the trade arranged by Zhao Huan.

This has led to a shrinking decline in the basic people's livelihood industry.

This issue was reported to him by the Han minister Shi Ling Ai several times, but he chose to ignore it.

Wanyan Zongpan stirred up the storm in the Jin Dynasty with the spirit of the ostrich.

In order to train Wanyan Zongpan to become the crown prince, Wanyan Sheng trusted him extremely and almost handed over all the administrative power to him, becoming a role like the prime minister of the Han country.

One person is below tens of thousands of people.

It has much more power than the Prime Minister of Song State.

However, this time Wanyan Zongpan fell into the pit.

With Yelu Dashi's escape from the north, the pressure on the western front of the Jin Kingdom weakened and the pressure on the southern front increased. Some ministers in the court advised Wanyan Sheng, demanding that Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan be transferred back on the western front.

These two people are Wanyan Gao's capable generals and are the obstacles for Wanyan Zongpan to control military power.

But now Wanyan Zongpan's reform is not going well. The new policy of the Jin Dynasty not only did not enhance the comprehensive national strength of the Jin Dynasty, but instead gave Song State an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Wanyan Zongpan's prestige in the court was challenged, and the traditional nobles led by the Jurchen nobles began to speak out in the court.

Under pressure from the court, Wanyan Sheng transferred Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan back from the Western Front.

Moreover, some people visited Wanyan Gao privately.

This is a game between the Han people and non-Han people.

Under Wanyan Zongpan's new policy, most of the benefits were Han nobles and Han gentlemen.

Because whether it is the Jurchen or the Khitan, it is really not as good as the Han people in terms of trade.

Traditional aristocrats saw that the Han people made money under the new policy and had long wanted to restore the old system.

This is also the reason why Season Ai has always been reluctant to mention the disadvantages of the new policy with Jin Emperor Wanyan Sheng alone.

But now the contradiction is obviously no longer covered.

While the Jin Dynasty was remediating the Jin Dynasty's trade, the old nobles were blowing in the ears of Emperor Jin Wanyan Sheng, hoping that Wanyan Gao could return to Beijing.

As the Song Kingdom became stronger and stronger in the south, it posed a huge threat to the Jin Kingdom. The previous pro-war factions in the Jin Dynasty rose again at the time of Wanyan Zongpan's defeat.

The voices calling on Wanyan Gao to return to the center of power have risen.

The transfer of Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan was the first step for Wanyan Sheng to adjust the power allocation of Jin State.

On this day, Wanyan Sheng summoned the Han ministers such as Shi Ling Ai and Han Qixian.

"My dear friends, now the Song State is becoming more and more powerful, and there are many voices in the court going south to attack Song. What do you think should you do?"

In fact, Wanyan Sheng also had the idea of ​​sending troops to attack Song.

Now the conflicts in the Jin Dynasty suddenly became sharp. He wanted to use the attack on Song Dynasty to divert internal conflicts and temporarily stabilize the situation.

The season love said, "Your Majesty, I think that the present is not the best time to attack Song."

"What do you say about this?"

"Our dynasty trade with Song led to a shrinking livelihood and food in many places was tight. Once a war broke out with the Song State, with the character of the Emperor of Song State, it would be a protracted war. Our dynasty's grain reserves do not have a protracted war for the time being."

Wanyan Sheng couldn't help but nodded. He had to admit that the Song State at this time was no longer the Song State in the past.

It is no longer practical for the Jin Dynasty to annex the Song State.

It seems that with the current situation, we can only compete with the Song State like the Liao State.

Wanyan Sheng regretted transferring Wanyan Gao from the center. If the war against Song was launched a few years ago, the situation might be completely different.

Regret now is useless.

Korean Enterprise said first, "Your Majesty, as long as you shrink your trade with the Song State, the new policy will benefit without any harm."

Wanyan Sheng fell into thinking.

The Han ministers naturally hoped for the new policy. After all, the new policy of the Jin Dynasty benefited the most from the Han people.

Wanyan Sheng also realized something at this time that the new policy of the Jin Kingdom was to learn from Zhao Huan's new policy.

But the national conditions are completely different from those of the Song Dynasty.

The contradictions in the Song State were the contradictions between the civilians and the powerful, and the emperor of the Song State was reconfiguring the social resources of the powerful and the civilians.

But the contradiction in the Jin Dynasty was the contradiction between the Han people and non-Han people.

For example, ministers like the Season Ai and Han Qixian will not think about whether the new policy of the Jin court is beneficial to the people and the Jin state. They will think more about it, which is beneficial to the Han people.

But Wanyan Sheng had to think about the overall situation.

He wanted to balance the overall situation, and the Han people's power has obviously developed too much now.

The new policy can indeed increase the income of the court, but the Han people had too much influence on the new policy, and the tax revenue in the middle is likely to be suppressed.

Wanyan Sheng still respected these Han ministers very much. He knew that to make the Jin Kingdom stronger, he had to rely on the Han people.

"At that time, I love my grandfather, now the Song State has ambition to spy on Goryeo's troops. I will use Goryeo to check and balance my Dajin. What are your good plans?"

"Your Majesty, our dynasty and the State of Song have contracted trade, and we can trade with Goryeo."

Han Qi first said, "Your Majesty, the State of Song is stationed in Goryeo, and the King of Goryeo is naturally one hundred. If he does not want to be annexed by the State of Song, he must cooperate with us."

Wanyan Sheng nodded and said, "Han Aiqing, leave this matter to you."

"yes!"

Korean Qixian was overjoyed because the new policy was affected, most of the trade between the Jin and Song dynasties were suspended, and the Han people in the Jin Dynasty suffered the greatest losses.

If Dajin now opens trade with Goryeo, the group of Han nobles can be arranged to communicate with Goryeo.

Although Goryeo's trade demand is not as good as Song Guoda, at least it will not be nothing.

"I have all my beloved friends in Dajin, and I have no worries."

"Thank you for your trust."

While appeaseing these Han ministers, Wanyan Sheng asked Wanyan Gao to find him and form a balance with Wanyan Sheng in the court.
