Compete for the Song Dynasty

Prince Zhao Shu was thinking about his own plan, so he waited for Wang Pang to come back and praised him well, he was going to hold Wang Pang high and then throw him hard.

At this time, Wang Pang had already embarked on his return journey. When he was followed by two mighty guards; At the time of Hengshan, Wang Pang really breathed a sigh of relief.

When Wang Pang went down the mountain, he saw that a group of people and horses had been photographed on the opposite side. General Zhong Er, who had come to pick up the supplies for the horses, had arrived here. The banner with the word "Zhong" in the front was waving in the wind, which made Wang Pang feel inexplicably kind in his heart. Ke Jun led the team to wait, and urged his horse forward.

Chong Er had also seen the king, and he raised his horse to greet him. The two of them reined in the horse with the wrong stirrup, and bowed their hands to salute each other.Chong Er admired Wang Pang a long time ago, the two of them competed with the envoy of the Liao Dynasty in the imperial archery competition, and they were also in the Imperial Street Kuajie together, and it has been two years since then.The Wang Pang in front of him has completely lost the childishness of the youth, and is a bit more mature and stable. He is dressed in a vermilion robe, which shows his heroism and pride.

Chong Er looked at Wang Pang and said loudly: "Haha, Wang Shilang will return triumphantly from his mission to Xixia this time. It has been a hard journey, and the magistrate of Yanzhou has already arranged a reception banquet, so I will leave it to Chong ( Note) right" His voice was high-pitched and resonant, resounding through the valley. [

Seeing Zhong Er this time, Wang Pang is not at all like the general Zhong who seemed to be asleep on the military field two years ago, half-squinting his eyes and being able to hit a hundred shots. His eyes were shining brightly, as if he had just won a big victory. .Wang Pang thanked Zhong Er with a smile, and took Zhe Kejun and Zhang Ping to Yanzhou.

They traveled more than ten miles to reach the city of Yanzhou. From a long distance, they saw crowds of people outside the city gate. It seemed that there were quite a few people waiting outside the city.

The three people next to Wang approached a little closer, and saw clearly that it was Zhongyi who led the city officials out of the city to meet them, and now the three were even happier.It was the first time in Wang Pang's life that the officials led a team to greet him at the gate of the city.His mood was like walking on the red carpet of the Oscar awards ceremony, he couldn't help holding his head up and smiling, come on, pay tribute to me!

The team led by Zhong Yi to welcome Wang Pang had just entered the city, and Wang Pang was startled by the scene in front of him.The city of Yanzhou was full of common people, men, women, old and young, rushing towards the king. This was not arranged by Zhongyi in advance, and even Zhongyi was somewhat inexplicable.

Zhong Yi wanted to order the officers and soldiers to disperse the crowd, but Wang Pang was not yet satisfied. Seeing this scene, he hurriedly said to Zhong Yi, "It's not in the way, it's not in the way." Before he finished speaking, the crowd surrounded him.

"Wang Shilang, great job!" Someone in the crowd shouted.Wang Pang was surrounded by people, watching these people cheering, listening to the greetings, and some couldn't wait to ask Wang Pang: When will this discussion field be built, and when will it be possible to open business.

The common people who couldn’t make it to the front also smiled and said to each other on the street: “It would be great if we can do business!” “Yes, everyone can make money!”

"If you don't have money, you don't have to worry about going to war."

Wang Pang suddenly felt how much the people of Yanzhou longed for peace. This feeling slowly replaced the glory that was cheered just now.

It made him feel inexplicably moved. He never imagined that he was such an ordinary person. He went back to hundreds of years ago and did a little thing to make the common people safe.

Thinking back to his previous life, he was just a poor commoner. Wang saw the faces in front of him longing for comfort and worshiping him. He was a little excited. He waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down. He said generously: "Thank you for your love. My Great Song Dynasty is still Xixia, and the common people only hope to be safe and prosperous in this life. Without the praise of all the adults, without the help of all the brothers, without the support of all of you, how could I, Wang Mou He De, be able to achieve this result."

Everyone gradually quieted down, and Wang Bang continued to say: "The world has always been divided for a long time and must be united. After a long period of unity, it is inevitable that armies will meet. The mountains and rivers will be washed with blood, and the souls will be destroyed. The king's hegemony and the soldiers' bloody battles are all for the peace of the unified world. For the prosperity of the dynasty for several generations, all living beings in the world will be blessed; Wang is willing to devote himself to the wish of making the country rich and the people strong based on what he has learned in his past and present lives."

He said that he took out the document of Song Xia Commerce from his pocket, held it up high and said: "If this document can make people in the world live and work in peace and contentment, I, Wang, would like to go to the north and south of the river to establish the connection between various countries and my Song country. May everyone be prosperous and safe!"

Before his words fell to the ground, thunderous cheers and applause erupted from the crowd, and even the officials led by Zhong Yi, who were blocked by the common people, were not moved.Everyone praised Wang Pang's courage in whispers, and even Zhong Yi felt relieved to have a deep friendship with Wang Pang.

Surrounded by the crowd, Wang Pang finally came to the magistrate's yamen.The ministers working in the yamen also came out to greet them, and it was very lively up and down in Yanzhou city for a while.

Zhong Yi set up a reception banquet next to the king at the magistrate's mansion. That night, Zhong Yi, Zhong Er, and Xue Xiangjun came to the banquet, and even officials from nearby counties and counties came to join in the fun, and Zhang Zai also brought Zhong Jianzhong.

Zhong Yi asked Wang Pang about the trip, Wang Pang smiled, what is there to say, he didn't go to see the war, so he just waited for the news in Xingqing Mansion, and as for the placement of Wu Su, he was right No one can mention it.

Zhong Er is the elder brother of Zhong Yi, but the two are completely different. Zhong Yi is a gentleman of a literati; , Knowing that Wang Shilang has successfully handled this matter, the emperor is so happy, it is rare to see the emperor laughing."

Xue Xiang has also been doing things more and more smoothly recently. He said proudly: "That is, in the past few years, Guang has signed so many alliances with Xixia and Liao, and they give money to others every year. This time, no soldiers were sent. The pawn made Xixia so impressed, can the emperor be unhappy?" [

Wang Pang laughed out loud when he heard this, and he was very proud of what he did. Fortunately, this was the Song Dynasty, and if he couldn't help himself in the Three Kingdoms, he would be Zhuge Kongming.

They were laughing and laughing at this table, and at another table, Zhang Ping and Zhe Kejun were also hosted by Zhongyi to celebrate their achievements. Those people were all from Zhongyi's old department, a group of rough and bold soldiers, Zhang Ping had a good time this time He said with a smile: "You didn't see that Wang Shilang was predicting things like a god, so you said that Li Liangzuo went back to Xingqing Mansion. Let's take a look at it from the tower. Oh, when the army went there, it was vast and mighty, but when it came back, it was sparse. .”

Then someone said to the two of them: "Now you two are fine, and you will be in the limelight with Wang Shilang."

Zhang Ping felt that what Zhong Yi said was right, but he didn't seem to be so right. He said with a smile: "It's going well with Wang Shilang, but our knife is almost rusting."

Zhe Kejun glared at him: "Look at the people in Yanzhou who are happy, are you still afraid that the world will not be chaotic?"

Zhang Ping hurriedly waved his hands. He didn't have to fight, but he always felt that he was holding back his energy and wanted to do bigger things with Wang Pang.He chuckled: "If we all do things like Wang Shilang, we really can't help but we will live in peace for the rest of our lives." Everyone laughed along.

Wang Pang bid farewell to Zhongyi, Xue Xiang and the others at the reception banquet. He had to leave early so that he would have time to visit Jinxiang Mansion.

Wang Pang returned to Jinxiang Mansion this time, just in time for Yu Danian's big day.Jiao Deyou, Yin Shijie and others gathered together.Congratulations on Yu Danian's wedding and happy event, and also congratulations on Wang Pang's smooth trip to Xixia.Seeing Yu Danian's stupidity, Wang Pang just smiled. In the past two or three years, he has bought a house and real estate, married the boat king's sister-in-law, and even got married with himself in circles.

Thinking about it this way, Wang Pang missed Yuexia even more. After going for more than half a year on this trip, thinking of Yuexia sitting alone in the room every day was even more pity, so he felt more and more like an arrow.

After staying in Jinxiang Mansion for a while, Wang Pang took a boat back to Bianjing, feeling a lot of emotions along the way. When he went to Xixia, the leaves on both sides of the bank were green, and when he came back, his eyes were golden.This is the season of harvest, and Wang Pang also returned with a full load, not only the tribute from Xixia and the establishment of discussions, but also the admiration of the border people.

When Wang Pang returned to the mansion, he immediately ordered someone to go to Chenzhou to fetch Yuexia back.There are full-time people to do the handling of the border market, and there are also several apprentices of He Xingyuan on the Xixia side, so it can't be done in three to five days.So Wang Pang is planning to stay in the capital for more days and spend more time with Yue Xia.

Wang Pang went to the palace to renew the decree, and Renzong was happy to reward him, so there is no need to elaborate.Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, Wang Pang is very busy, busy with meeting Bao Zheng and Wang Anshi, busy with the contacts and entertainments of officials and merchants in the capital;

After the mid-autumn festival, there was an official holiday. This period of time just allowed him to deal with the matter at hand happily, and at the same time, he could get along with Yuexia comfortably.Let Wang Bang rest assured that the people around him are doing things more and more smoothly, so he needs to worry more, everyone will arrange the things at hand properly.Even that boy Cai Jing, who helped Lu Shenyan take care of the tea farm, did it in an orderly manner.

While the king was busy, there was another person in the capital who was as busy as him. Prince Zhao Shu was busy convening a group of ministers to discuss matters; he was busy monitoring every move in the palace; I was busy discussing with my confidant: how to let Wang Pang go to Liao and never come back.

What made Zhao Shu particularly happy was that he got a secret letter from the spy he sent from the Liao Kingdom. Seeing the secret letter, he frowned slightly, and a sneer emerged from the corner of his mouth.In addition to reporting the situation of the Liao court as usual and the progress of Yelu Chongyuan's recruiting and trading, this letter also told Zhao Shu a piece of news.

This news is a favorable blow to Wang Pang, that is, Yelu Zhongyuan has a general named Wanyan Xiezhe under his command.His younger brother is a successful general beside Wang Pang, whose alias He Li Bo is in Wanyan He Li Bo in the Song Dynasty.
