The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 114: Suspected - Part [-] (ten updates)

Cai Jing.

I'm afraid you still don't know about Cai Jing.

Zhang Dun smiled.

The other three looked at Zhang Dun's smile with doubts on their faces.

Zhang Dun: "Cai Jing will not survive, nor will Cai Bian, the whole family, the whole clan."

After hearing this, the other three people looked at Zhang Dun.

Suddenly, Zhang Dun patted the table lightly: "Yes, yes."

"What, don't beat around the bush." ​​Su Shi felt that Zhang Dun was going to interrupt.

Zhang Dun said: "In knowing there is action, and in action there is knowledge. However, as my son said, knowledge and action are integrated and progress together, and there is no doubt about it. Just this sentence, you three can realize it."

Su Shi stopped pressing the question, and after a full quarter of an hour said: "Master, you have to be a master."

Only then did Zhang Dun talk about what happened at the dock that day. He saw every scene with his own eyes.

Hearing that Cai Jing's eldest son fell into the water unexpectedly, Fan Chunli, Han Zhongyan, and Su Shi all had expressionless faces. This incident was not worth their shock.

However, Zhang Dun said at this time: "There was a person wearing a bamboo hat to cover his face. Think about it now."

"Who?"

"Liang Xin! That's what he said just now."

Su Shi began to circle around the room: "No, if this knot in my heart is not resolved, I will go into self-exile and return to Danzhou."

"Let's go together." Zhang Dun also had the same attitude.

Fan Chunli: "Count me in."

Han Zhongyan: "Well, that's still a child, so that's not appropriate."

Zhang Dun moved a basket of draft instructions and piled them in front of Han Zhongyan: "Come on, search all over the world to find a kid who can handle government affairs with such a sophisticated attitude."

By the way, this so-called child at this time.

Treating guests.

Find only one person to treat with.

Zong Ze.

"I said Brother Nian, are you warm-hearted?"

In an open-pit iron mine, iron ore can be dug out by just digging.And then...the Iron Buddha.

Cui Yiye was beside him and kept calculating.

Just this kind of armor, human armor plus a vest, their Jurchen tribe would have to spend at least 100 million Song Dynasty money to barely make a pair, and it may not be able to achieve the exquisite iron armor described by Liang Xin at this time.

Zongze listened quietly.

Is Liang Xin betraying the Song Dynasty?

Do not!
Zongze believed in his own vision.

"As a friend, give me one hundred Silla maids first. Then, you can make iron yourself. If not, I will buy the iron ore. For a ship of iron ore, I will give you two pieces of cloth and ten loads of grain. , and a suit of armor, or human armor, or vest.”

How much is Songdi’s iron ore worth?

Iron, if it can be purchased, costs about three guan per hundred kilograms.

This is ordinary iron.

If it were made into a weapon, it would be worth ten times or even a hundred times.

Regarding the kind of armor Liang Xin mentioned, Cui Yiye whispered to Nianhan: "It would take at least six hundred guans to make it for the people of the Song Dynasty. If we make it ourselves, we may not be able to make it with a thousand guans."

Nianhan nodded.

Cui Yiye continued: "This is a conspiracy. The Song people just want us to fight the Koreans. I can't guess the reason. But we can rob the Korean cities and use whips to make the Koreans dig iron ore, and then Transport it to the seaside, and the Song people's ships will come to transport these ores. I don't believe that the Song people only want this little ore."

"Don't speculate on those useless things. It doesn't matter about intrigues and conspiracies. If such an armor has a thousand men and horses, we will need two thousand ships of ore."

Cui Yiye quickly corrected: "There are also weapons, crossbows, arrows, and food and grass."

"Yes, ten thousand ships." "Yes." Cui Yiye recognized this number.

With a thousand pairs of armor like this, the Wanyan clan could suppress all the Shengnuzhen, and even become the sole king of the Shengnuzhen.

Nianhan picked up the big bowl and filled it with wine: "We have to deal with this matter. Within three months, you will send a ship for one hundred Silla maids, two ships of medicinal materials, and fifty high-quality war horses. We don't have a big ship." . This is our sincerity, drink up this bowl of wine now."

Liang Xin looked at the big bowl, smiled bitterly, took it and drank.

Nianhan, holding the wine jar, raised his head and drank heavily.

Nianhan's side is really drinkable.

As for Liang Xin, the wine flowed from the corner of her mouth to her collar, and then...

Anyway, Liang Xin definitely didn't dare to drink this bowl, as he would be so drunk that he would have a headache tomorrow.

Everything is a verbal agreement.

All based on credit.

Zongze and Cui Yiye briefly discussed how to arrange contacts and mutual tokens. They used a few ordinary jade pendants to divide them into two pieces, each holding half. When the time comes, they will recognize the jade pendant but not the person.

After finishing this matter, Liang Xin was carried onto the carriage.

drunk.

Zongze sent Liang Xin home.

Not far from Wumingjiaolou, Liang Xinteng sat up immediately.

Zongze was not surprised and pretended to be drunk. In the situation just now, it was very appropriate.

Arriving in front of the Liang Mansion, Zongze was ready to leave.

Liang Xin said: "Come with me. If you can trust me, I will naturally trust you. It's just hard to say what will happen next. I can't tell how you will react. You may be furious or you may accept it. , or maybe I have to find a way to kill you and silence you."

Zongze said nothing and followed Liang Xin silently inside.

East across the courtyard.

Four old men were analyzing Liang Xin. Liang Xin came, smelling of alcohol and Zong Ze.

Entering the room, Liang Xin said directly: "Mr. Zhang, you said that when there are five people in this room, our affairs will be stable. This is the fifth person I chose."

Zhang Dun: "Reason."

Liang Xin asked: "Mr. Zhang, do you remember the ten thousand words of advice he wrote during the imperial examination?"

Zhang Dun: "Of course I remember that he was placed in the 'lowest subject'."

Liang Xin: "I can trust him. After you, he will be my choice as left prime minister."

After hearing these words, Zongze turned his head and looked at Liang Xin.

Originally, these four people were shocked in this room. Zongze at least knew the relationship between Zhang Dun and Su Shi. It was already very incredible for these two people to sit in the same room.

At this time, Liang Xin also said that she was his chosen future left prime minister.

How could this not shock Zongze.

Liang Xin added: "However, his style is too tough. If he were the prime minister, he would be more domineering than Zhang Gong when he was the independent prime minister. But it doesn't matter, he has a right heart."

Zhang Dun stood up and walked towards Zongze: "Zong Chengzhi, I want to ask..."

Before Zhang Dun could speak, Su Shi interrupted him: "It doesn't matter. We won't all die of old age in the next few years. Let's ask the important things first."

"That's right." Zhang Dun stepped aside after hearing this.

Su Shi walked toward Liang Xin, but Fan Chunli stopped him, and then motioned to Han Zhongyan to ask.

Han Zhongyan said: "Brother Xin, the four of us are puzzled. If we keep this doubt in our hearts, these three will go to Danzhou and never come back."

"You ask." Liang Xin also felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right.

Han Zhongyan asked: "Brother Xin, the son of Liang Shicheng a year ago was a dandy in Bianjing City. What do you think of you today? We suspect that your poems were copied." Su Shi interrupted at this time: " Tell me the key points." Han Zhongyan nodded: "A person cannot become smart overnight. What can I say about today's...?"

　Ten more.
