A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Zhao Shu said with some excitement: "For the Song Dynasty, Xixia used to be a weapon to balance the Liao Kingdom. With Xixia here, the Liao Kingdom did not dare to deal with the Song Dynasty with all its strength. Now that the Song Dynasty is not afraid of the Liao Kingdom, Xixia has naturally lost its use. The place of martial arts, what is that called..."

"The newlyweds married into the house, and the matchmaker threw them over the wall!" This was what Han Qi said, and Old Han was so happy that he was a little incoherent.

"Crossing the river and burning the bridge." Bao Zheng seems to have the intention of an old man talking like a teenager.

"To add insult to injury." This was what Shen An said, and she got a roll of eyes.

"Ignorant and ignorant!"

Zhao Shu looked down upon him and said: "Xixia is a ferocious barbarian, so you need to plan carefully..."

"Your Majesty, what I am most worried about is that if the Song Dynasty persecutes people too much, Xixia will defect to the Liao people. When the two countries merge into one, the Song Dynasty will be in difficulty." Fu Bi thought about this matter for a long time on the road. At this moment It's easy to say.

"Li Liangzuo is young and energetic. If the Song Dynasty oppresses too much, he will definitely join forces with the Liao people. Once the northwest and north warn at the same time, the Song Dynasty will be in a dilemma." Fu Bi said seriously: "So I think Be careful when attacking Xixia."

"This is the advice of an old man to plan for the country!" Zhao Shu praised: "It seems that Fu Qing has gained a lot from this trip. If there is anything else, he can write a memorial later."

Fu Bi was happy and glanced at Han Qi.

Old Han, you wait, wait until I enter the political hall, and we will spar again.

Zhao Shu was thinking about the difficulties of attacking Xixia. He inadvertently looked up and saw Shen An's indifferent expression, so he asked, "Do you have any opinion?"

"Yes." Shen An held it back for a long time, waiting for this sentence.

"Your Majesty, I think Li Liangzuo is short-lived."

Well!

Zhao Shu almost choked at these words. He coughed dryly and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

What is short-lived?

Although there are fortune tellers these days, basically no one believes them.

Han Qi smiled and said: "What auspiciousness is recorded in the history books, and those fortune tellers just look at people and say that they have talents as kings and assistants, or that they have the destiny of prime minister, or that they have a short life... But these are mostly It’s far-fetched, you should be able to distinguish these when you read.”

Don't think that the ancients were fools. Most of the so-called records of experts were scorned.

——Looking at your beautiful bones, you will definitely be able to be a minister when you grow up!

Many such words have been recorded over the past thousands of years, but most of them are far-fetched.

Bao Zheng said: "Just like the Li family in the former Tang Dynasty who claimed to be a descendant of Li Er, this kind of thing is not credible."

"Why not believable?"

Ouyang Xiu suddenly retorted, and Bao Zheng sneered: "Then Li's blood is not pure..."

"Just because he has impure blood doesn't mean he doesn't have Li Er's blood..."

The two old guys were fighting again. Zhao Shu was used to it and talked to Shen An, "Can the Mangshan people still read fortune tellers?"

"No." Shen An said: "It's just that Li Liang Zuochen used a telescope in the northwest last time. When I saw it... I couldn't describe the feeling. I felt that this person was short-lived and must be short-lived. "

"Your Majesty, think about it, if Li Liangzuo is short-lived, then Queen Liang dares to lean towards the Liao Kingdom?" Shen An said confidently: "If she leans towards the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Hongji will swallow her up, so it's best The solution is to be self-reliant. But in this case, the Song Dynasty will fight and negotiate at the same time, fight and pull at the same time, and finally strive to let Empress Liang... that..."

Shen An didn't think of that word, and Chen Zhongheng beside him raised his eyebrows, "Your Majesty, if Li Liangzuo is really short-lived, I thought that if I asked Shen An to go to Xixia, Queen Liang would return with a smile..."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Zhao Shu couldn't help but burst into laughter, holding his stomach while laughing, feeling very happy.

"Why are you laughing, Your Majesty?" Ouyang Xiu and Bao Zheng had been arguing for a long time with no result. Seeing Zhao Shu laughing freely, he felt a little regretful.

Chen Zhongheng lowered his head and refused to say anything more.

Zeng Gongliang smiled and said: "Shen An said that Li Liangzuo was short-lived. After he leaves, he will try to win the surrender of Empress Liang."

Isn't this nonsense?

Bao Zheng frowned and said: "Just say these things in private, don't say them outside, otherwise if others hear them, there will be an uproar in an instant."

Shen An nodded, thinking if you don't believe it now, just wait and see.

Zhao Shu looked at him and said, "You have made great contributions during this trip, but Guixin County can no longer use it."

When it reaches the level of a county official, the title must be given by the county unit.

However, there was no such unit as a county in the Song Dynasty. Most of them were place names from the Han and Tang Dynasties.

For example, what about Tianshui County, what about Anding County...

Shen An's heart moved and he said, "Your Majesty, I belong to the Shen family of Xiongzhou."

This is his name and must not be taken away.

After that, his descendants traveled abroad and claimed to be Xiongzhou Shen. After a few generations, this reputation became extraordinary.

This is the foundation!

Shen An looked at him all day long, but when he said these words, even Han Qi was surprised.

"Xiongzhou Shen..." Han Qi muttered: "As long as your children and grandchildren do not ruin the family, in a few generations, people in Xiongzhou will regard the Shen family as one of their own, and the Shen family will have a foundation. You The planning is excellent, which makes me a little envious."

"Why not Bianliang?" Zhao Shu asked suddenly, with a relaxed expression.

It is normal for a minister to plan for his own family. He only cares about his country and not his family. Such ministers are so rare.

Shen Bian passed away without leaving any legacy. The Shen An brothers and sisters had to start from scratch in Bianliang and build a brand new Shen family.

It’s not easy!

"Your Majesty, there are too many powerful people in Bianliang." Shen An said very calmly: "As a joke, if you throw a brick on the streets of Bianliang, you might hit a few men..."

Zinan refers to viscount and baron.

"Do you think the title of the Song Dynasty is mud?" Zhao Shu pointed at him and shouted: "Promote narrowness!"

"Yes." Shen An admitted his mistake in his mouth, but never in his heart, "Bianliang is too big, I can't find my roots."

"Root?" Zhao Shu frowned and said, "What is the root?"

He thought about it carefully, and then said with a sad expression: "My roots!"

His roots are outside the palace, in the prince's palace, in that old man's scolding voice...

…

"...that shameless old guy, he was talking about being inedible at home... and he was talking about being able to become a god..."

"If he can become a god, I will be his father! Hahahaha!"

The shouting and cursing in the county prince's palace came as usual every day, and a spy outside was recording it.

——Last night, the princess of the county had a bowl of soup cakes, two eggs, and three lamb chops for breakfast...

——The prince started yelling and scolding after breakfast, with a loud voice...

This report was later sent to the palace and delivered to Zhao Shu.

Zhao Shu read it and put the report in the box.

Ever since he entered the palace as a child, he knew that his fate would not be simple.

But Zhao Yunrang warned him not to take this seriously.

——If you want to despise all this, don't worry, daddy is always here.

Zhao Yunrang has been protecting him since he fell into a trough. Regardless of whether it is a family member or an outsider, Zhao Yunrang will scold anyone who offends him...

——In the past, Zhao Yunrang was kind and taciturn. After Zhao Shu left the palace in despair, he changed from his normal behavior and often cursed.

These scoldings drove away the mockers, allowing Zhao Shu to have a relatively quiet space to quietly lick his wounds.

——I feel sorry for Thirteenth Lang and let him enter the palace to seek wealth and honor. I deserve to die...

After getting drunk, Zhao Yunrang would cry bitterly and regret that he had let Zhao Shu enter the palace.

Zhao Shu lowered his head and murmured: "My roots are not here."

This palace made him feel depressed, and the lack of scolding made him not used to it.

He raised his head and said with a smile: "Shen An won the Duke, what did you say before?"

Chen Zhongheng saw the tears in his eyes and quickly lowered his head and smiled: "He said he would send a thank you gift when he comes back!"

"What kind of thank-you gift should I give for a national title? Do you think I am an emperor who regards the title as a favor?" Zhao Shu laughed and scolded: "But his family has a lot of good things. Go back and ask him to see what he has given you." Where is my thank you gift?"

Chen Zhongheng agreed, smiling secretly in his heart.

After he went out, Zhao Shu ordered: "Send some good medicinal materials to the prince's palace, and... tell the prince not to ask for..., just let him do what he wants."

Someone behind him responded.

He wanted to persuade Zhao Yun to stop playing with women, but as a son, he clearly knew the sacrifices his father had made for him.

From the time he became the prince, Zhao Yunrang almost restricted himself to the prince's palace, never leaving the front door or taking any steps forward.

What is he doing?

Isn't it just to let his son succeed to the throne smoothly?

When Zhao Shu ascended the throne, Zhao Yunrang became a little more relaxed, but he still rarely went out.

The emperor is on the throne, and his biological father is still alive. This is an eternal wonder!

Zhao Yunrang didn't want to embarrass his son, so he still drew the ground as a prison and locked himself in the prince's palace.

He is so lonely, and his only pleasure is probably drinking and playing with women. Without these pleasures, what is the difference between him and the walking dead?

Zhao Shu sighed slightly.

…

"Mr. Lang is home!"

After a cheer, the door of the Shen family opened. Aunt Chen and Zhao Wuwu helped Yang Zhuoxue out. Guoguo followed and shouted: "Huahua, go see where your brother is, Lumao, don't run around, where is my bleat..." …Baa baa…”

Huahua rushed to the front, rushed all the way to the entrance of the alley, and then stood there wagging her tail.

Shen An dismounted and threw away the reins. The horse didn't run around and just followed him, entering in a familiar way.

Huahua rushed over and stood up.

Shen An caught its paw and said with a smile: "Be good, be good."

Huahua licked his hand, then went down, turned around and led the way.

The neighbors came out and cheered all the way.

"Mr. Shen County is mighty!"

This battle was of great significance to the Song Dynasty. After the victory came, Bianliang rejoiced.

The people in Yulin Lane were even more happy because they were neighbors with Shen An.

When Shen An saw a woman with slightly dark skin, she smiled and held her hands in her hands: "Isn't Shopkeeper Yan out yet?"

Yan Yue has already settled down in Dongertiao Tianshui Lane. She cupped her hands and said, "I'll go later. I congratulate County Duke Shen on his triumphant return."

"Thank you."

Shen An handed over his hand and was surrounded by others to the door of his house.

Yang Zhuoxue was helped over and barely squatted down. Shen An quickly went to help him.

"Congratulations on your triumphant return."

"Congratulations to my brother on his triumphant return!"

Guoguo walked over with Taro in hand. Shen An touched the top of her head and said with a smile, "Are you good at home?"

He still habitually regarded his sister as the child who stumbled while walking.

Guoguo gave him a big smile and said, "Be good."

Guoguo still regards him as the most trustworthy brother who carried her all the way to Bianliang.

Shen An leaned over and picked up Taro, who frowned and said, "Congratulations, Daddy..."

What is this mess?

Just when Shen An was about to speak, Taro covered his nose and shouted, "Daddy stinks!"

Depend on!

Shen An then remembered that he hadn't taken a shower for half a month and hurriedly entered the house.

"My husband has been granted the title of Duke of Fanyang this time!"

Yang Zhuoxue was overjoyed when she heard this, but Mr. Zhuang had already begun to squeal outside.

He stood on the steps, holding the door frame with one hand, his right leg shaking slightly...

"My husband has been granted the title of Duke of Fanyang this time because of his meritorious service."

"congratulations!"

The neighbors happily held their hands in congratulations, and someone said, "Is there a wedding banquet?"

Zhuang Laosheng said proudly: "Other families have to hide in hiding after being rewarded, but my family is different. Lang Jun said that a gentleman is magnanimous and a villain is always close to each other, so the Shen family's wedding banquet will be held as usual. All the neighbors have nothing to do."

The Shen family was generous, and the neighbors knew what they were doing, and they all planned to go back and prepare some gifts, and then the whole family would come to eat for two days.

But this level of showing off could not satisfy Zhuang Laoshi's desire for expression. He asked, "Do you all know the story of Fanyang County?"

Most of the people shook their heads, and Zhuang Laozhen said proudly: "Fanyang County is a place name in the former Tang Dynasty, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net It is the same as what we have now. In the former Tang Dynasty, the area of ​​Xiongzhou belonged to Fanyang County, that’s why the officials named my husband the Duke of Fanyang County!”

Everyone sighed happily, and Zhuang Laoshi continued: "Fanyang City is now a place belonging to the Liao people. The last time my husband inspected his subordinates under Fanyang City, he was so angry that Yelu Hongji vomited blood..."

The crowd cheered again, and Zhuang Laoshi said seriously: "My husband's title is Fanyang County, so whose place should Fanyang City belong to?"

yes!

Shen An is the Duke of Fanyang County, but Fanyang City is within the territory of Liao Kingdom. How to say this?

This county official seems to be very embarrassed!

According to Shen An's urine, he will definitely keep an eye on Fan Yang's place in the future, looking for opportunities to bewitch the emperor and his ministers to take that place back.

"From the Song Dynasty!" Everyone couldn't help but look forward to it.

The Duke of Shen was the most vindictive, and now that he had received the title of Duke of Fan Yang, the Liao people were afraid that they would have a headache.
