Compete for the Song Dynasty

Logically speaking, Wang Pang and Qin Minxue were strangers to each other, so why did Qin Minxue insist on making trouble for Wang Pang over and over again?Those who are admired in everything will inevitably be envied.The important officials in the court who are jealous of Wang Pang naturally also target Wang Pang, Qin Minxue is one of them.

Wang Pang can be regarded as a person with extraordinary behavior. Although he was not awarded a Jinshi at the age of fourteen or fifteen, he made an exception and was appointed an official, and he went to Xixia and Liao as an envoy.Not only that, in terms of business excellence, in terms of achievements, he is against the enemy; but he is easy to make friends with, attracting a group of buddies around him to follow, and some friends and elders in the officialdom support him.

This Qin Minxue is a small and competitive person, seeing that Wang Pang is worshiped like a god by the crowd, he couldn't help getting more and more angry, so he was jealous of him, and wanted to try to hurt him and express his grievances.Qin Minxue knew from his elder brother Qin Minzhi that Wang Pang had always made Zhao Shu, who was not enthroned, a thorn in his side like Di Qing.Sometimes Qin Minxue would think, what kind of virtue can Wang Pang do? Could it be that he has three heads and six arms, and is stronger than his peers?This time, brother Qin Minzhi was sacked because of the Jinxiang mansion at the king's side, and Qin Minxue held his breath even more. Now that you are at the king's side without a adoptive father and the protection of Emperor Renzong, let's see how long you can survive.

This is a bit like Sima Guang's feeling of being unhappy. The person Sima Guang admired most was Yan Shu. Yan Shu was able to write poems at the age of five. , By the age of 14, he was already a prime minister with one person under one person and over ten thousand people.But Sima Guang became famous at the age of seven, and became a Jinshi at the age of 29. Now he has passed his forty years, but he is still an admonishing doctor.

Sima Guang was cautious in his words and deeds from the beginning of "Xiu Daily Notes", showing extraordinary stability and patience everywhere, until he leaned on the big tree of Zhao Shu, but after Yingzong ascended the throne, Sima Guang still succeeded his predecessor.This also became a heart disease, and even when Shenzong ascended the throne, he immediately appointed Wang Anshi as prime minister, which made Sima Guang even more depressed and unconvinced.Originally, Sima Guang, who proposed reforms during Yingzong's time to eliminate the long-standing malpractice, would be overwhelmed by Sima Guang in the later period, no matter what method Wang Anshi proposed, and he would become a thorough conservative. [

Of course, how can Qin Minxue compare with Sima Guang?After all, Sima Guang was knowledgeable, he was just angry and opposed it openly, but Sima Guang, who was later regarded as a high-ranking man, did not necessarily use some schemes to frame people.On the contrary, Qin Minxue, who has a stomach full of bad water, made things discovered by him by such a blunder.But he was not in a hurry to tell the truth, including Yingzong and the prime minister, everyone knew that those volumes were not finished, but some people were holding back to find a reason to leave the king, and some people didn't want to let the compilation of the book involve energy. Now the prime minister's energy is focused on reading. Live on this often nervous emperor.Therefore, when each has their own concerns, they often turn an event that should not have happened into an unsolved case that can be convicted at any time.

Wang Pang didn't know these things, and Wang Pang didn't even know that the person sitting next door with such an arrogant servant was Qin Minxue. Of course, Qin Minxue didn't want Wang Pang to see him at this time.Although Wang Pang has resigned now, but what Xu Liang said is right, it is better to avoid provoking Wang Pang and let him go to Guangnan as soon as possible.The three of Qin Minxue also wanted to stay in Jinxiu Tower at this time. Xu Liangsheng was afraid that these two people would not be happy. Seeing that the food and wine were similar, he led the two of them to the Immortal Cave to drink tea and listen to music, and then ordered some pretty songs Accompanied by prostitutes, waiting so carefully, finally saw a smile on Gao Gonghui's face, and Qin Minxue seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness just now, Xu Liang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

When Wang Pang returned to the mansion, everyone bid farewell to Wang Pang one after another. By the end of the evening, almost everyone had left. Except for the servants of the mansion, only Lu Shenyan and his wife, Rouer, who were looking after the mansion, were left. Tong Guan, and Cai Jingwazhuang who was traveling with Wang Pang.Wang Pang ordered someone to tell Yuan Ze to make preparations, and they would be on their way in a day or two.

After all the arrangements were made, Wang Pang felt a little empty in his heart. First, most of the relatives in the mansion had left, and the usually bustling mansion was extremely quiet now; second, the future was uncertain. There is still no clue about the matter; the third is going south. Thinking of going south, I have to go to Zeng Xianggong to try to get the customs clearance document, and the document can’t be written only to Jiaozhi. Use your brains.

Wang Pang walked back and forth in the study room. Although the study room was larger than the study room in the Meyer Mansion, the study room was full of elegance and exquisiteness that literati often have. I don't even know where Lu Shenyan got the things in traditional Chinese.

When he calmed down, Wang Pang missed Yuexia and the child a little. It had been a while since he returned to the capital, but the news of the child was still unknown. Even Zhang Yi from Chenzhou sent people from the beggar gang to inquire, but there was still no whereabouts. Wang Pang Gently sighed.

"My lord, Shen Cunzhong is here."

"Quick, please!" Wang Pang almost didn't jump up when he heard that, Shen Kuo hadn't seen him for a while, and he was the No. 1 brother of Wang Pang back then.

After a while, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and as the door was opened, a short fat man appeared at the door of Wang Pang's study, and Wang Pang walked over quickly: "Brother Shen, what wind brought you here, hurry up Come!" Said Wang Pang and patted Shen Kuo vigorously.

The two brothers haven't seen each other for a while, and this intimacy is like seeing a long-lost relative.

Although Wang Pang had many close relatives in this physical body in the Song Dynasty, emotionally, these people knew Wang Pang for the same amount of time. However, in recent years, they have been buddies who usually do things together and joke together, making Wang Pang very kind.

"You bastard, with such a sharp attack, you have gone to the Wonu country, and you have been away for several years, okay, you have grown up again. You think my brother is not short when you slapped me with such a big hand?! Haha "Shen Kuo still looks like an old urchin.

It was only then that Wang Pang discovered that when he first met Shen Kuo, he was only fourteen or fifteen years old. At that time, he felt that Shen Kuo was not tall. Over the past few years, his height has grown a bit. No wonder he just reached out and patted Shen Kuo on the shoulder. Still feel quite relaxed.

"I said, old brother, people grow taller and taller, why are you getting more and more twitching, do you have the feeling of hating the sky?"

The two laughed, Wang Pang gave up his seat to Shen Kuo, and ordered someone to brew a good dragon well: "Brother Shen, where are you from? You see, I just returned to the capital, and I was busy with the affairs of the house. Don't blame me for not visiting you."

"How dare I blame you, I know you have something to do. No, I came to see you?!"

"Then I can blame you. Knowing that I'm back, I didn't come to see me earlier. Now the court officials are so frequently transferred, if you don't come, I don't know where to find you."

"Hey, why are you looking for me? I don't come to you because I'm afraid I won't be able to climb high. I haven't increased my size or my official position for so many years. Your third-rank servant has too many people looking for you. I'm afraid you won't want to see me." .”

"Brother Shen, that's a long way to go, we are brothers! Besides, my official is well-known, even if I give an errand, it's a hard job for an expedition. I don't usually help you, but my brother always helps me. I am grateful It’s too late.”[

"If you say that, then I'm being stingy! But now that you've resigned, I'm not afraid that my official position will be low. If I don't come to see you, I'll come to say goodbye to you."

What Shen Kuo said said that Wang Pang felt very uncomfortable. Since he became an official and went to war again, although every time he came back, he returned with praise, but he always felt that his old friends were getting less and less, just like Shen Kuo, Cheng Hao, Li Gefei and others Gradually alienated a lot, even his elder brother Yuan Ze was polite to him, which made Wang Pang very uncomfortable.Seeing Shen Kuo say that now, I feel that Shen Kuo is a good friend.

"Okay, brother Shen, don't dislike me as a commoner now."

"Dislike? Dislike me and I won't come today." Shen Kuo pouted, looking at Wang Pang. This guy is really good-looking. After all, it was written by himself, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

Wang looked at Shen Kuo and looked at him with good eyes, his eyes were full of admiration, thinking what happened to Shen Kuo today, and it would not be like this if we haven't seen each other for a few years.

"Oh, I really like this face of yours. It's obvious that I ruined myself and made it like this. Tsk tsk." Shen Kuo praised while drinking tea.

Only then did Wang Pang understand: "Haha, then you are the pirated Wang Pang. And the pirated version hasn't been pirated yet, let's get a widened version."

"Hey~ how do you get the word 'pirate'? Stealing means self-interested things. Well, this is at most just an imitation. Haha, forget it, I still think my old face looks good now."

Wang Pang also laughed, and Shen Kuo was still talking about words at this time: "It's really beautiful, so beautiful, haha, by the way, Brother Shen, you just said goodbye to me, where are you going?"

"It can be said that if I were in the Tang Dynasty, I might not be worse than Concubine Yang." Shen Kuo touched his white, plump and smooth face, making Wang Pang laugh out loud.

"I came to say goodbye because I was just appointed as the manager of Yangzhou to join the army. No, I am planning to go to Yangzhou after the new year."

"Okay, I'm going south after the Chinese New Year. I just happened to drop by to see Brother Shen. Then don't say you don't know me."

"Just your face? If I don't know, who else do I know? Don't just talk about me, why are you going south?

Wang Pang hesitated for a moment and said, Zeng Xiang asked for a private unannounced visit to seal up the lost scrolls. Should I tell Shen Kuo: "I'm going to Jiaozhi. I heard that there are unicorns in Jiaozhi. I haven't seen them in Xixia for two years." , Anyway, I have resigned now, and I just went to see the beasts when I was light-hearted."

"Hey, luckily I'm here. Let me tell you, no one in the imperial court knew the one enshrined in Jiaozhi. His Majesty Renzong named it a strange beast. In fact, I don't think it's a unicorn, but it's just that people in the Central Plains have little knowledge."

"Oh? What is that?" Wang Pang couldn't help being surprised, what did Jiaozhi offer so boldly?
