After hearing this, Zhao Bing found it very interesting. The reaction of a normal person to end the Northern Expedition under the good situation was a heartbroken, sighed, inexplicably sad, and even did some extreme behaviors. He felt that it was very normal. What the hell was "relaxed"? Could it be that he was self-indulgent and overestimated people's expectations for regaining his hometown!

"Your Majesty, the government and the people are very excited about the Northern Expedition to recover Lianghuai and some areas of Jingdong East Road. They are also inspiring to regain Yingtian Prefecture, and they all praise Your Majesty for the Shenwu. However, they still have some complaints about continuing the Northern Expedition, and the reason is really unspeakable." Wang Yinglin said with a shameful expression.

"I have made it clear that it is just a private statement. There are no taboos. I will never blame anything for anything. I can say anything bluntly." Zhao Bing emphasized again. To be honest, he was also curious about this strange reaction.

"Your Majesty also knows that this Northern Expedition is huge, and all the officials in the court feel heavy pressure, for fear that a slight mistake will lead to the failure of the Northern Expedition, which will cause turmoil, and even the fall of Jiangnan again. Therefore, under the heavy pressure, everyone is trembling and exhausted. Therefore, if the Northern Expedition is announced at this time, everyone will naturally feel much more relaxed, and at least they can breathe a sigh of relief." Wang Yinglin said.

"Haha, I have neglected this. This Northern Expedition is a national power, and the entire army has come out in full swing. If it is defeated, it will be a situation of losing all the money, which will scare all the ministers with me!" Zhao Bing thought about it, and he was confident that he would win this war, but it did not mean that everyone had confidence. The failure of the war was not only wasted all his efforts, but the situation was reversed, and his life was not easy. Those who advocated the Northern Expedition were also sad. They were still criticized by the government and the public, and they would even take the blame for the failure, causing them to lose their reputation and dismissal. Years of struggle were ruined, so it was understandable that they would stop when they were better.

"Your Majesty's commander-in-chief is invincible, and there is no defeat. It's me who are worried about it." Wang Yinglin bowed and smiled. "Yingtian Mansion is the Qianlong land where Taizu founded the country, and there is also a royal temple built to worship Taizu, Taizong and Zhenzong's three former emperors. Your Majesty has no objection to the recapture of the court and the country, but he has some complaints about continuing to capture Kaifeng."

"Kaifeng is the former capital of Tokyo. It was first in the hands of the Jurchens and was occupied by the Mongols, causing our dynasty to lose its capital for more than a hundred years. It was a great humiliation for our dynasty. After moving south, regaining the former capital was not only the wish of emperors of all dynasties, but also the wish of the benevolent people of our dynasty. Why did it retreat when we were close to us?" Zhao Bing asked, but he wondered if everyone was as he thought. Kaifeng had been abandoned for too long and had lost its original value, so he thought of giving up as a bargaining chip for bargaining with the Mongols!

Yingtian Prefecture is indeed of great significance to the Zhao Song Dynasty. It was both the Longqian land of the Northern Song Dynasty and the founding capital of the Southern Song Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of Song Dynasty, was the governor of Guide of the Later Zhou Dynasty. After the Chenqiao mutiny, he became the emperor and established the capital in Kaifeng. He thought of making his fortune in Songzhou, so he established the country as Song. After the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin army went south. Zhao Gou, the first emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, established his capital in Nanjing (Songzhou) in May of the second year of Jingkang, and then went south to Hangzhou more than 40 days later. The reason why he ascended the throne in Yingtian Prefecture was because this place was auspicious place for the Song Dynasty.

In addition, the original temple built in Yingtian Prefecture is a place for royal family to worship ancestors. According to its etiquette system, the court had to pay tribute to the emperor every year. Even after the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed, the Fire God worshipped here became the soul of the Southern Song Dynasty. They always set up a vegetarian hall to worship the gods, and prayed for the Fire God to bless him whenever they were in trouble. In the late Jin Dynasty, Jin Aizong also used this place as the capital, hoping to borrow the blessing of the auspicious land of the Song Dynasty to repeat yesterday's glory. As the place where the ancestors made their fortunes, it was also the place where the ancestral temples were located, so it was no surprise that the court and the people could understand that Zhao Bing insisted on regaining Yingtian Prefecture.

"Your Majesty, our dynasty has moved south to Jiangnan for more than a hundred years and has taken Hangzhou as its place, which has led to the prosperity of Jiangdong. Even the migrant military and civilians have settled in Jiangnan for a hundred years. After several generations, they have been accustomed to the customs of Jiangnan and have long known where they are. Once Kaifeng is recovered, they are worried that Your Majesty will give up his place in Hangzhou and move the capital to Bianjing. In this way, not only will the officials from the court relocate, but the wealthy families in the capital also want to move to the new capital, which will lead to the loss of the dragon energy in Jiangnan and no longer have the prosperity of the present." Wang Yinglin said in a funny way.

He actually understood that 'Xingzai' means the place where the emperor was. After the Jingkang Incident, after Yingtian Prefecture ascended the throne in the first year of the Jin army, in order to avoid the attack of the Jin army, he successively went into Yangzhou, Pingjiang Prefecture, Hangzhou, Jiankang Prefecture, Shaoxing Prefecture and other places, all named "Xingzai". During this period, when he was stationed in Hangzhou in February of the third year of Jianyan, he ordered it to be an palace and promoted Hangzhou to Lin'an Prefecture. In fact, it was the capital of Lin'an, but it was still called Xingzai in name, and it was still called the Bianliang City, where the tombs of the late emperors of the Zhao Song Dynasty, was located, and even before Lin'an was captured by the Mongolians, Hangzhou was not called the capital.

After the remnant Song Dynasty, the little emperor still believed that the capital would always be Kaifeng, Bianjing, and was determined to fight the northern expedition and recover the old capital. Therefore, Wang Yinglin also believed that it was inevitable to consider relocation after the recovery of Kaifeng, but it was not so easy, and it could not be decided overnight. First of all, even if Kaifeng was recovered and the Central Plains had not been restored, Kaifeng was the frontier of the battlefield. Only when the emperor was stupid would he hurriedly move the capital to a place of four battles. But no matter how he looked at the little emperor, he would definitely not do those brainless times. Although the king and his ministers mentioned this matter in private words, he could also see that he had the intention of stopping the war in Yingtian Mansion.

Secondly, Kaifeng City has experienced natural disasters and wars over the past century, and has long been beyond recognition. If you want to move the capital, you must renovate the city, rebuild palaces, unblock canals, and build water conservancy. These projects are huge, and they consume countless financial and manpower, and the court is unable to bear it now. Even if you have money, it will take time to build it. Therefore, you don’t know that the year of the Monkey and Horses will put the capital on the agenda. Those people are really worried earlier.

"Moving the capital is a major event for the country, so how can we move lightly? But I don't know if Bohou thinks anything to restore Yingtian Prefecture to Nanjing!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and smiled. He had already given up Kaifeng as the capital in his heart, and would not make any moves at this time. But since someone wants to make trouble with this, he might as well release the news that he will not move the capital for the time being to break the rumors and stabilize the hearts of the people.

"I personally think that the time is not ripe for restoring Nanjing's status. Its location controls Jianghuai in the south, Heji in the north, Pengcheng in the north, and Bianliang in the left, Bianliang in the right, and is in a victorious connection, which is enough to protect the southeast, the throat and the Guanshan in the north, and is the main road to the north and south of the Great Henan. Now the border with the Mongolian and Yuan dynasties will inevitably become a place for battle. Once the rules are lost, it will cause shock to the court and the country." Wang Yinglin said.

"But this Northern Expedition to our dynasty recover the important places of the two Huaihe Rivers and Huaibei is less meaningful than Kaifeng. If Your Majesty is willing to stop fighting in Yingtian Prefecture, restoring the name of Nanjing is of great significance, second only to the regaining of Kaifeng. Therefore, I think that restoring the name of Nanjing can inspire the hearts of the savages and demonstrate your majesty's unparalleled achievements!"

"Well, what Bohou said is very much. But once Yingtian Prefecture is promoted to Nanjing, you need to guard the important officials. Can anyone choose Bohou choose?" Zhao Bing nodded and asked again. In fact, he knew that once Yingtian Prefecture was promoted to Beijing, as the political status of the city increased, the rank of the chief officer would also increase. According to convention, Nanjing was left behind as the chief officer, but Yingtian Prefecture would be appointed to serve as the chief officer, but generally, Yingtian Prefecture would be held as the chief guard of the palace key and the capital city, suppression and repair, money and valleys in the capital, soldiers and civilian affairs, and they could be called a small prince.

In addition, the Song Dynasty customarily built a Shenyu Temple in the capital and some important places. Because Yingtian Prefecture was the original temple of the Zhao family, it was naturally built with the three holy kings of Hongqing Palace Feng'an. According to the patriarchal ritual system and the official history system, the name of the officials in charge of Hongqing Palace affairs was Shi Ju. Although this position has little affairs and is usually relatively leisurely, the people who hold this position have high requirements, most of them are respected old ministers, knowledgeable people, and high-level people.

Anyone who was appointed as the Hongqing Palace was either a royal family, a respected person, or a literary master. For example, Zhao Lingjia was a cousin of Song Huizong, and after being promoted to prime minister after being promoted to Fan Chunli, he was promoted to the prime minister. For example, the great calligrapher Mi Fu, the famous poet Zhou Bangyan, doctor You Zuo, Longtu Pavilion Waiting for Lu Yun, famous writer Huang Buzhi, and Zhu Xi, a Daliist of the Southern Song Dynasty, all served as the Hongqing Palace successively, which is enough to show that Hongqing Palace had a great influence on the politics of the Zhao Song Dynasty, and most of the people who entered the office could become prime minister. Therefore, although the yamen was cold, it was a popular official position.

"Shi Kai has been walking in front of the imperial court for many years, has outstanding knowledge, is calm and reasonable, has a meticulous mind, and is familiar with military and political affairs. I think I should also serve as the governor of Yingtian Prefecture. As for the promotion of the position of Hongqing Palace, I heard that Chen Shangde in the court and the country have a high voice, and many officials and scholars have recommended him!" Wang Yinglin was silent for a moment, as if he had to muster up the courage to say.

He knew that several of the officials who had joined the imperial court had already left the township and held important positions. However, Duke Zhuang was calm by nature and did not care about his position. He repeatedly refused to join the local government or work in the ministry and province, and has always stayed in the imperial court. Now he is in charge of the imperial court affairs. Chen Pu did because His Majesty accepted the recommendation and ordered him to go to Beijing to go to office, but he thought that Neo-Confucianism was the right way, and those tricks were just a hobby of others, so he refused to serve as a priest of the Academy of Sciences, which made His Majesty hate him. Although many court officials asked for his orders and allowed him to enter the court as an official, His Majesty kept letting him sit on the bench.

"Let Shikai be the one who stayed in Nanjing and Chen Pushi as the Hongqing Palace? Is there any hidden meaning in it?" Zhao Bing was stunned when he heard this, frowned and pondered for a moment.
