Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Your Majesty, calm down. Today is His Majesty's birthday. I just finished drinking, and getting angry can easily hurt the dragon's body."

"Brother Emperor, can I not be angry about this kind of thing?" Zhenzong patted his watch, "Li Deming has already sent an envoy, and he will arrive in Beijing in a few days. He said he was bringing food back. This kind of behavior is nothing short of robbery!"

De Fang cupped his hands, "Your Majesty, let the minister go to meet the envoy and send him back to the party."

"No" Zhenzong shook his head, "what is the identity of the emperor, what are they! I will send a servant from the yellow gate to meet them outside the city, and drag them to stay in the post house until they leave by themselves. They are a grain of rice!"

Wang Dan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think it's okay to give it to him."

"What?" Both Zhenzong and Defang looked at Wang Dan, and Wang Dan said, "Your Majesty, since Li Deming has sent an envoy, let's let him fetch rice from Tianxin and be ridiculed by the world."

"Tianxin takes rice?" Both Zhenzong and Defang couldn't understand, "Prime Minister, what is the meaning of this? How can he be ridiculed by the world?"

When Wang Dan explained the method he was thinking of, Zhenzong was very satisfied, and Defang said, "Your Majesty, let the minister and the prime minister handle this matter."

"Okay, but..." Zhenzong smiled, "I want to see this drama with my own eyes, hahaha"

Defang returned to the mansion and called his third son, Wei Neng, and ordered him to take people to Jingcang to carry the purchased beans and wheat. A few days later, the party envoy Li Deming's cronies entered Beijing, but Wei Neng took people to the city gate to greet him, and the envoy got off his horse. He clasped his hands and asked, "I don't know who is coming?"

Wei Neng handed over his hand, "I am Zhao Weineng, the third son of the Eight Sage Kings, and the current member of the Household Department, Wailang."

"It turned out to be His Royal Highness, polite and courteous. Today, His Royal Highness who is in the household department welcomes you. So the Emperor Song agreed to lend food to our party?"

"Dangxiang has submitted the form to our court. The emperor of the Song Dynasty agreed to borrow food this time, so he specially sent me to welcome the envoys to Beijing to get food."

"The Great Song Dynasty is really a ****! Hahaha" the party envoy laughed and said, "Then don't delay, and ask His Royal Highness to lead the way."

"Please" Wei Neng led the party envoys to the palace. Many people gathered along the way, looking at them with disdain, and some even laughed strangely. You won't be ambushing someone to catch us, right?

Wei Neng led them along the Imperial Street to the empty space in front of the main gate of the palace, got off his horse and said, "Envoy, we have arrived."

All the envoys of the party got off their horses and took a look. At this time, there were piles of sacks full of sacks around the empty field, but there was only a small pile in the middle, but they didn't know what it was, and there were many guards standing on the tower. After watching quietly, just as the envoy was in a daze, Defang and Wang Dan came over, "Envoy, the journey is simple and simple, and it is really hard work to borrow food from thousands of miles away."

The envoy cupped his hands, "This envoy is polite, but who are the two of you?"

Wang Dan turned his hand to Defang, "This is my eight virtuous king of the Song Dynasty, and I am the prime minister Wang Dan."

The envoy was startled, and hurriedly bowed, "It turns out that it is the prince and the prime minister of the ****. This envoy was rude, so please forgive me."

"The envoy speaks seriously." Wang Dan smiled, "My Emperor Song, learned that the envoy came to Beijing to borrow food in person, and he attached great importance to it, so he sent the prince to greet him here."

"Don't dare dare," the envoy said, "This envoy is also under the king's order. The King Xiang of our party has submitted a petition to borrow food from the ****, and this envoy...is still in a hurry to go back."

"Oh." Wang Dan nodded, "I also expected this to be the case, so I have prepared all the rice and grain, and the envoys can take them away now."
