A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Humans are group animals. For example, a group of neighbors live in a simple alley. No one dislikes anyone. They always come out with a big bowl to eat, and their voices are as loud as thunder. Everyone can hear what is going on in the house. .

No one thought it was inappropriate at this time.

But when one of them suddenly gets rich or becomes an official, things will immediately start to feel wrong.

I have money, I have power, but I feel uncomfortable surrounded by a bunch of poor people!

And what about security issues?

Brother is so rich, what if someone robs him one day?

So the guard came into being.

These guards are all determined to win over the powerful. To put it bluntly, they will follow even if they want to rebel.

This is inheritance.

If a family doesn't have many dead men, it will be embarrassing to say hello to others when going out.

There were more than three hundred guards, with several large vehicles in the middle.

"That's all gold."

There was more joy in Shen An's eyes and he said, "Let's start three miles from the town."

The convoy moved slowly away, disappearing into the mist.

Some are yawning, others are grumbling.

"It's too far from here to there, and the cart is so slow. It will take years and months to get there!"

"Stop being so verbose, just think it's a bad trip?"

"Traveling... Who travels in this weather? It's freezing cold in the morning and evening."

"Huh? Why is there no one?"

"Why no one?"

"Someone should be walking by this time!"

"wrong!"

"Stop..."

Someone screamed, and then the sound of horse hooves was heard.

"what is that?"

The mist was knocked away, and the black-armored cavalry seemed to emerge from the ground, the crossbows in their hands flashing.

"Yes...it's the Mangshan Army!"

"Heijia, it's the Mangshan Army!"

The Song Dynasty was the only one, and the cavalry without a semicolon appeared.

Someone figured out the whole thing in a flash and shouted: "This is a scam!"

"Haha, you are really smart."

Shen An smiled from behind, and Zhao Xu said lightly: "Kill them all, no one will know."

"Fire the arrow!"

Crossbow arrows flew, followed by long knife slashes.

The guards pride themselves on their superb skills, but when facing the Mangshan Army, they feel as helpless as children.

As the attack continued, Shen An suddenly asked: "I heard that you brought a woman into the palace?"

Zhao Xu said angrily: "It's the aunt from Wenfeng Village."

"aunt……"

Shen An thought for a while and then remembered the poor aunt, "Why?"

"Chang Er wanted to marry her. My aunt is pitiful. I couldn't bear her jumping into the fire pit, so I brought her back. Now she is waiting by my side."

"You won't..." Shen An frowned and said, "That's impossible. Neither the officials nor the saints will agree."

If Zhao Shu and Gao Taotao found out that their son was going to marry their aunt, their anger would burn down the entire imperial city.

The wife of the future prince is very important, as she will be a mother to the world, and she will rule the harem and so on. The aunt is a village girl, but does she have such abilities?

Definitely not.

"Where are you thinking about?" Zhao Xu said angrily: "If I were thinking about it, there would be many women around me."

Too.

"Watch your waist!"

Shen An rushed out without saying a word.

"Kidney, what do you mean?"

Zhao Xu was a little confused, and the guard beside him laughed dryly: "Your Majesty, you just have kidney deficiency..."

Damn Shen An!

Zhao Xu got angry and said, "You are so weak!"

Shen An had already charged in, and after a few back and forth, the remaining ten people dismounted and asked to surrender.

"Look who so-and-so is."

Those people looked up, and when they saw Shen An, someone shouted: "He is going to silence him!"

In fact, from the moment they saw the black-armored cavalry, these people knew that they would not be spared.

After several sweeps, there was no one alive on the ground. Shen An walked over, patted the wooden box, and said with a smile: "Open it and take a look."

Someone pried open the box, and the gold shone in the morning light.

"Get rich, hahahaha!"

The black-armored cavalry disappeared into the morning mist again...

…

In the morning light, Zhao Shu had just finished breakfast and stood outside in a daze.

Behind him is Chen Zhongheng making a routine report.

"Last night there was a fire in a teahouse in the outer city, and two people were burned to death. Fortunately, it was discovered quickly and it did not spread."

"Chen Ji?"

"yes."

Zhao Shu said calmly: "The means are nothing more than this."

He originally thought that Shen An would come up with some shocking means, but he didn't expect that it would be the same old routine of murder and arson.

How boring!

"The dignitaries were furious last night. Many people went to the ruins to check. The officials in Kaifeng Prefecture had a headache."

"Deserve it!"

Zhao Shu's attitude was obvious. Those powerful people would probably have nightmares if they saw it.

"Shen An and the king set off last night...More than an hour later, many people left the city one after another and headed southwest."

"Um."

Zhao Shu nodded and looked at Zhang BaBa walking in the morning light.

With just a hint, Shen An understood it and went after the guards. Of course, gold was also important.

"Guan Jia, Shen Anlin said before setting off that he had worked very hard to arrange this scam and spent a lot of money..."

"That money man, give him 20%."

Zhao Shu had a smile on his lips and was in a good mood.

A minister must have a hobby, whether it is lust, greed for money, or gluttony, such a minister is easy to control.

Zhang Baibian raised his head with a sense of gloating in his eyes, "Then Shen An said it would be at least 30%, otherwise..."

"You still know how to bargain with me?" Zhao Shu said coldly: "Otherwise, what?"

"He said...otherwise he will take the king to Dali, and maybe he can really find the magic tea."

"..."

Zhao Shu's breath tightened, and he immediately wanted to hit someone.

Later, when I went to the front, the ministers seemed to have a lot to say.

"Your Majesty, there was a fire at Chenji Tea House last night and two people died, but the shopkeeper Chen Ji ran away from the tunnel."

Han Qi said angrily: "Your Majesty, that is a busy city, those people are too bold."

Bao Zheng's eyelids twitched. He knew what happened last night, but when he thought about Shen An's fight with the powerful, he felt something was wrong.

He was very familiar with that kid Shen An. If the powerful people stabbed him, what would happen according to Shen An's urine?

Will definitely push it back.

Moreover, someone actually deceived so many powerful people, and they were so daring that the powerful people outside were clamoring for a reward of 10,000 yuan for Chen Ji's head.

He was very courageous, but Bao Zheng felt something familiar.

Huang Li was unlucky, the village changed hands, but Shen An didn't take action. Bao Zheng felt that the child had a much broader mind and was very pleased.

But then he thought about it and felt something was wrong.

A wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat, and a dog travels a thousand miles to eat shit.

Shen An's temperament means that he doesn't want to suffer any loss. How can he be broad-minded?

If he is broad-minded, then I will be the prime minister's heart.

Bao Zheng felt that he was afraid that he could not even sail a canoe, so Shen An was even more unlikely.

That brat, he was probably responsible for this scam!

"One thousand catties of gold, when did Bianliang have such a scam like today? Your Majesty, please go and investigate the case."

Han Qi was filled with indignation and felt that this big scam that happened in Bianliang was a provocation to him.

Since the Baozhou victory, Old Han's spirit has become even higher.

Zeng Gongliang said: "Your Majesty, this kind of liar is very skilled and harmful. I thought I should catch him and throw him to the island to be isolated from the world."

Ouyang Xiu blinked, "That...I think this kind of liar...will be killed if caught, so as not to become a disaster."

Bao Zheng didn't say anything, and everyone felt a little strange.

Ouyang Xiu said: "Bao Xiang used to hate evil so much. What happened today?"

yes! When Lao Bao learned about such things in the past, he would have been furious.

What happened to him today?

Zhao Shu glanced at Bao Zheng and couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

Did you guess that it was that little beast Shen An who did this? Ha ha ha ha!

That little beast actually wants to bargain with me.

A thousand kilograms of gold is worth a hundred kilograms at a time, so that little beast can do it!

The royal family has always been a serious lover of gold. In their view, gold with small size and high value is most suitable for building a small vault.

One hundred pounds!

Zhao Shu was very angry.

Bao Zheng said seriously: "I am thinking about those powerful people. Why were they fooled?"

Han Qi said: "The liar said that the magic tea that prolongs life actually has some effects..."

"Since there are such good things, why don't you report them to Your Majesty?" Bao Zheng said righteously: "As a minister, I don't have such treasures for His Majesty to enjoy, but to enjoy them secretly. These ministers have been deceived. ...I think I...deserve it!"

"you……"

Han Qi felt that Lao Bao was being confused, but after thinking about it, he felt that he was right.

When the powerful people learned about these treasures, they secretly enjoyed them themselves without saying they would be dedicated to the officials. What a beast!

The most important thing is that they didn't think of giving Old Han a chance to breathe. At least they let me have a drink and live a few more years!

Lao Bao's move was like an antelope hanging its horns, leaving no trace, and it immediately changed the atmosphere.

…

When we returned to Bianliang again, it was already dark.

Shen An was about to go home. As soon as he waved his hand, he saw a skull face.

"Mr. Shen... the officials have invited me."

Zhang Baibian's voice was a little ethereal.

"I'm a little dizzy, I'm afraid I've caught the wind and cold."

Shen An has already packed up 30% of the gold and is waiting to take it home for collection.

But if Zhao Shu wants to summon him, it doesn’t taste very good here!

Then he and Zhao Xu entered the palace.

When she saw Zhao Shu, Shen An just didn't speak.

Zhao Shu looked at him steadily and suddenly asked: "What do you need so much money for?"

"collect."

Shen An's answer was simple.

"Collection..." Zhao Shu said happily: "The favor of the ministers is in the hands of the emperor. Today's collection will become evidence of crime tomorrow. What do you think?"

Today you have a lot of money, but tomorrow you will be a prisoner, and all the money will belong to others.

He Shen and others are examples.

Shen An said: "I think there should be rules."

Zhao Shu's smile became even brighter, and he waved his hand and said: 'Go. ’

Shen An raised his head and asked: "I take the liberty..."

Zhao Shu smiled and said, "Take the 30% back yourself."

"Thank you, officials."

A smile appeared on Shen An's face, and then he excused himself.

Zhao Xu watched all this blankly from the side, suddenly feeling that he was still very young.

"He is not short of money and is generous with his money, but why are he arguing over a hundred pounds of gold?" Zhao Shu stood up and walked out, followed by Zhao Xu.

"I thought..." Zhao Xu said tangledly, "I'm afraid it has something to do with the rules."

"Yes." Zhao Shu said: "The powerful people are putting pressure on me. He is worried that I can't stand it, so he uses this method to ask me, are there any rules between the monarch and his ministers?"

"If there are no rules and the king is allowed to do whatever he wants and change his orders every day, then Shen An will feel that I am not a wise king, and he will probably not want to serve me anymore..."

"Behave!"

Zhao Shu smiled and UU read www.uukanshu.net "That boy is so courageous that I can't help but want to deal with him."

Zhao Xu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, knowing that the monarch and his ministers had reached a tacit understanding.

You are the emperor, so what should you do? I am a minister, so what should I do? It is best for everyone to act within the rules.

What if the emperor breaks the rules?

"What will happen if that boy is dissatisfied with me?"

Zhao Shu was very interested in knowing the answer.

"Don't try to lie to me."

He used the title "I" just to give a formal answer.

Zhao Xu said tangledly: "Probably...probably..."
