Compete for the Song Dynasty

Wang Pang didn't go to Liao Kingdom in fear, after all, he still had a wish in his heart, to go to the land of Yanjing to find Baishi's whereabouts.If He Libo hadn't received that letter, he wouldn't dare to say whether this matter would fall on him. Now Wang Pang believes that the letter is true, and judging from the prince's attitude, the prince would really like to leave Song Guo.Especially after the emperor said the wrong sentence just now, it might be safer for Wang Pang to leave Song Kingdom now.

Wang Pang thought to himself that instead of waiting for someone to poke him, it would be better to stand up first, at least not to be too passive.

When Emperor Renzong saw that Wang Pang volunteered, he finally gave himself a step. Otherwise, none of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty would be willing to go on an envoy, and he would lose face. Arrange someone to accompany you."

He looked around again, and the prince Zhao Shu hurriedly said: "Father, don't worry, there are many capable people around me..." One more official would be more troublesome, the prince wished the king could go by himself.

Now Wang Pang can confirm that the crown prince already knows the identity of He Li Bo, so Wang Pang took the words and said: "I report to the emperor, I have the experience of finding out the envoy to Xixia, the emperor need not worry about Wang's safety. "[

Renzong just nodded and gave up, and ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare congratulatory gifts for the king's envoy Liao, and reward the king's side with gold and silver for what he needed on the way.Wang Pang calculated that invitations from neighboring countries like this are usually made a few months in advance, and the time for envoys to deliver letters can be scheduled. The birthday of the Empress Dowager of Liao Kingdom is still one or two months away, so I should stay in Bianjing at least a few months longer. A month away, never late.

After retiring from the imperial court, Wang Pang and the crown prince came to the Chui Gong Hall to wait for the emperor. The emperor summoned the two of them just to go through the process, to ignore his wrong words in the court, but Zhao Shu seemed to have found an opportunity to be in front of Wang Pang, in front of the emperor. The emperor praised Wang Pang.What a young talent, full of wit and intelligence, in short, basically used all the words that can be used.

For Zhao Shu's move, Emperor Renzong was very happy, and it was rare that the prince finally got the hang of it.But Wang Pang thought to himself, the weasel had no good intentions when he wished the chicken a new year.

Coming out of the palace, Wang Pang went straight to Yunxuan, Zhongzhen and Yuanze happened to be there today, and the two were preparing for the content of the next issue of Yunzhai.Wang Pang greeted them, and when they saw Wang Pang coming in, Yuan Ze hurriedly asked, "Ruo, is there anything new in court today?"

Wang Pang found a chair and sat down. Dr. Tea, a pretty girl, came over immediately and brought tea to Wang Pang: "Yes, there are not only new things, but also big things." Wang Pang said after taking a sip of tea.

Both Yuan Ze and Zhong Zhen put down the manuscripts in their hands, and they walked to the seat next to Wang and sat down opposite each other: "Brother, tell me quickly." Zhong Zhen kept calling Wang Pang brother in private, and Zhong Zhen called her brother , Wang Pang suddenly wanted to laugh.Not bad, the future emperor of Song Dynasty, Emperor Shenzong of Song Dynasty; the current emperor of Xixia, Li Liangzuo, and the future Taizu of the Kingdom of Jin, they are all brothers.

Thinking of Wang Pang laughing out loud, this laugh confused Yuan Ze and Zhong Zhen: "Hey, why are you laughing with that? Yuan Ze patted Wang Pang and said.

Wang Pang stopped laughing and said: "I'm laughing at the Liao Kingdom..." Wang Pang wanted to say that the emperor of the Liao Kingdom would be all right if he swore to him, but he thought that the matter of Xixia Li Liangzuo must not be said of.

Zhao Zhongzhen waved his hand and said disdainfully: "Cut, what's so funny about the Liao Kingdom?"

Wang Pang was about to laugh: "By the way, I will only stay for another month before I have to go to the Liao Kingdom. I will bring you some special products from the Liao Kingdom."

The two of them gave a disdainful "Huh~", and Zhongzhen said, "If there is any special product in the barren land, at most, bring us some cattle and sheep."

This is the reason why the information is backward. Wang Pang understood what Zhongzhen was saying. In the eyes of the Han people, except for the Central Plains, which is as big as a palm, other places are barbaric.It's no wonder they think so. They lived in the previous life for 30 years. In the past 20 years, they thought that two-thirds of the people in the world were still in dire straits.It's just that when the information is developed, we know who is in dire straits.

What Wang Pang and the others said was not completely wrong. There are a complete range of crops in Liao Kingdom, including grain crops such as millet, wheat, rice, and rice, as well as vegetables and fruits.What if the common people eat and drink, but it is not considered a special product. As for the unique geographical location of the Liao Kingdom, it is true that the animal husbandry industry is very prosperous.

Wang Pang said with a smile: "I'll talk about what to bring back. I'll have to rely on you to take care of this side after I leave."

Yuan Ze didn't say anything, Zhong Zhen said with a pouted face, "We're just playing, we don't make any money here, and the income from Yunpick is also limited, unlike your business."

"Haha" Wang Pang laughed loudly. In his eyes, although they were about the same age on the surface, in fact, Wang Pang looked at Zhongzhen and Yuan Ze, but they were just teenagers: "Don't underestimate our Yunxuan. And Yunzhao. Come, let me tell you about the function of Yunzhao."

Yuan Ze also said: "You should talk about it~"

Wang Pang was about to use Yunpiao to do something, he said: "For example, I have a lot of business now, and I am going to Liao country again, so I definitely can't look around. Let's take Yunpick next time and send me to Liao For the matter of celebrating the birthday of the country, find a space to publish it, and also, call the business leaders from various places in Mayer's mansion back to Bianjing, and see how effective it is to send people to call them one by one."

He remembered something, and said: "By the way, Zhong Zhen, it's your father who forced me to go to Liao this time. Don't forget to praise your father for knowing people and making good use of him." laugh. [

In Zhong Zhen's eyes, it is a great thing for his father to value Wang Pang, so he is naturally happy.But from Wang Bang's point of view, this is tantamount to telling the world that if I make a mistake, or if this trip doesn't go well, sooner or later you, Zhao Shu, will look good to me.

The three younger brothers chatted again for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Wang Pang and Yuan Ze went back to Wang Anshi's residence together, and when they came out, Yunxuan and the two bid farewell to Zhongzhen.Along the way, Yuan Ze began to scold Wang Pang, because Wang Pang was too good at delaying something, so that his mother nagged when she had nothing to do. "I said brother, now that my mother has given birth to a little girl, and there are many maids and wives around, when will you pick up Rou'er?"

Wang Pang was taken aback, Yuan Ze forgot about it without mentioning himself, he hurriedly said: "My dear brother, how can I have time, I am going to Liao Kingdom soon, and I even have my wife on weekdays. I don't have time to accompany you next month."

Yuan Ze shook his head and looked at him with a smile: "You only have the moon in your eyes, and the flowers, flowers, willows and greens in this world are not in your eyes anymore."

Wang Bang stood still and looked at Yuan Ze in amazement, Yuan Ze greeted him: "Let's go, what do you think I am doing?"

Wang Pang took a closer look at Yuan Ze this time. He wore a light blue square scarf on his head, a light blue silk robe, and a tall and thin figure.Four or five years have passed since then, and Yuan Ze is no longer the ignorant young man who regarded women as scourges when the two brothers were talking about women.Now it seems that the heart of spring is moved, and I actually know that the world is full of flowers and willows.

Wang Pang decided to tease him: "I see if you have a crush on Rou'er, anyway, I can't let others go, why don't I go tell my parents, just leave Rou'er to you."

Yuan Ze hurriedly waved his hands, it wasn't that he was interested in Rou'er, Wang Yu and Wang Yuanze already had someone in mind at this moment, he was just worried about his brother.

"Don't mess with this. Rou'er is infatuated with you. Besides, Rou'er is seventeen or eighteen. Do you want her to find someone else in the future?"

When Wang Pang heard it, what Yuan Ze said was indeed reasonable, and he never said that he didn't want Rou'er, so he made the girl grow old in a flash: "Brother, you have to give me time, I will go back and do my wife's ideological work .”

Yuan Ze glared at him: "As long as you have a lot of things, I don't think Miss Yuexia is such a right and wrong person. Besides, taking concubines is nothing. You can see that Su Zizhan has married three of them."

Wang Pangwen laughed out loud. Su Shi is also known as a romantic talent. He is neither a genius nor a romantic. How can he compare with Su Zizhan, who is admired by later generations: "I am not compared to Su Zizhan, but I want to compare myself." Brother, how can you have a wife and concubines without marrying me? You, don't just urge me, hurry up and recruit yourself."

While talking, the two had already arrived at the gate of Wang Anshi's mansion, Wang Pang entered the house with a smile, Yuan Ze Nai shook his head, his own brother had his own reasons for everything.

The servant at Wang Anshi's mansion saw the two young masters coming back together, before the two brothers could open their mouths to ask, he greeted them with a smile on his face, bowed and said: "Young masters, the master is now in the study."

Just as Wang Pang and his elder brother Yuan Ze were about to take a step, the servant hurriedly said in a low voice: "Hey, two young masters, the master doesn't seem very happy today..." He winked his eyes as he spoke.

They nodded to indicate that they understood, and the servant turned around to do other things.

The two slowed down, and Yuan Ze asked Wang Pang in a low voice, "Ruo, do you know who made Daddy angry?"

Wang Pang smiled slightly: "Have you ever seen your father get angry because of a trivial matter at home? It must be something in the court." He had already thought that what could make Wang Anshi angry was none other than his mission to Liao Kingdom today.

The two walked into Wang Anshi's study room. There were a few books in a mess on Wang Anshi's desk, and he was looking for something on the bookcase up and down.Seeing the two sons coming, he said to the eldest son, "Yuanze, you have a good eye, help me find the location of "Khitan Kingdom Chronicle""

As he spoke, he beckoned to Wang Pang again: "Ruo, take these! Hurry up and read them."

When Wang Pang walked up, his head was getting bigger. If these books were in the hands of modern people, they would be worth a lot of money. The side-sealed vertical edition hand-copied original ancient books. "Zi Zhi Tong Jian Volume 270 Fifth Later Tang Dynasty", "Zi Zhi Tong Jian Volume 271 "Hou Liang Ji Six", "Liao History" and so on

Not to mention that Wang Pang has only a half-knowledge of ancient prose, even if he is proficient in ancient prose, these books are enough for him to read for half a year.Yuan Zesu knew that his younger brother was most afraid of reading, so he secretly smiled while looking for the "Khitan Kingdom Chronicle" that his father told him to look for. [

Knowing Wang Anshi's kindness, Wang Pang neatly arranged the numbers on the desk and said, "Daddy is worried about my trip?"

Wang Anshi sat down, looked at Wang Pang and asked, "Why did my son volunteer to go to the Liao Kingdom today? The crown prince obviously thought that my son was young and deliberately said something that appealed to you. Are you a little proud?"
