A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

In the political hall, Han Qi took a sip of tea and said happily: "I have known that the king is a talented person ten years ago. Now wait and see, this kind of prince who can calm down and do things can tell the lives of the people. The better, the more stable the country will be, how many princes have there been in the past who have said this?"

Zeng Gongliang was silent.

"These words gave me an enlightenment." Bao Zheng turned his eyes and said proudly: "With such a prince in our dynasty, we can ensure that the Song Dynasty will be stable for hundreds of years!"

He habitually looked to the side, but his old enemy Ouyang Xiu had already finished class, and the newcomer Fu Bi was deep in thought.

"Didn't you realize the mystery behind this matter?" Fu Bi raised his head, tapped the table with his fingers, and glanced at Han Qi, "The king said he would give the people tax exemptions, which makes us ashamed, but there is another thing here... "

He smiled at Han Qi and said with a sense of superiority, "Does Prime Minister Han know?"

Han Qi clenched his fists and moved his eyelids a few times.

Fu Bi raised his head slightly, smiling and saying nothing.

The situation is about to break out...

Zeng Gongliang quickly winked at Bao Zheng and signaled him to intercept Fu Bi, while he went to intercept Han Qi.

Bao Zheng said calmly: "What Xiang Fu wants to say is that every time before doing something, do you have to go down and check?"

There was a look of surprise in Fu Bi's eyes, and it disappeared in a flash.

Bao Zheng is not very good at being an official, and he is always slow to understand the situation, but he has seen through this matter long ago?

Fu Bi smiled and said: "That's right. Removing the people's piecemeal taxes is just a small step. What I value more is the king's way of doing things."

He glanced at Han Qi, still with a sense of superiority, "For example, if you want to give kindness to beggars, you can't just sit in the check-in room and figure it out by yourself... Let's put it this way, you are not a beggar. , how do you know what the beggar is thinking? You have to ask, go to the beggar and ask, this is the king's way of doing things."

There was silence in the duty room for a moment. Zeng Gongliang rubbed his face with his hands and said, "Bow down..."

Han Qi nodded, "Yes, bow."

Fu Bi did not target Han Qi this time. He said quietly: "Be careful and remember that the officials were out of the palace before, and there were often impeachments by the censors. Tell us what happened today and see if those censors have anything to say." explain!"

"Bow down!"

Bao Zheng walked over, opened the door, took a deep breath, and smiled on his face, "It's always a good thing."

"yes."

When he turned around, the prime ministers and assistants looked at each other and suddenly laughed.

Sitting in this position, it would be nonsense to say that you want to get promoted and get rich.

They were already standing at the top of the Song Dynasty. Unless they wanted to rebel, they would not be able to rise. More often they think about ambition.

Everyone's ambition is different. Zhao Xu's ambition is to become a good emperor in the future.

And Shen An's ambition is to protect his descendants from being trampled by iron hoofs. From the current point of view, he has done a good job.

Xixia had been beaten to a semi-crippling state. The Liang family was shocked in Xingqing Mansion and lost all the Li family's savings for many years... It is said that she had the money placed in front of the palace, saying that as long as it could block the Song Dynasty's attack, This money belongs to everyone.

Xixia people are... relatively "upright". When they saw so much money, their eyes widened, so everyone from sixty-year-old men to ten-year-old children came, and there were even women riding horses. Mount your horse, bring your bow and arrows and join the army.

"Liang was so proud that he stood in front of the palace in military uniform and said that he would fight to the death against the Song Dynasty."

The spy looked very proud and took a sip of water.

This is the Privy Council. Wen Yanbo is sitting at the top, and Han Qi, as a member of the political hall, sits on the side with him. Next is Shen An, the foreign affairs expert of the Song Dynasty. Opposite him is Zhang Bianba.

Wen Yanbo glanced at Shen An, who shook his head and signaled to continue listening.

The spy drank the water, wiped the corners of his mouth, and continued: "This water is so sweet... There was a lot of joy in front of the palace at that time, and many people were shouting that they wanted to die with the Song Dynasty..."

These words made Shen An feel very funny. Xixia and Song Dynasty perished together. What nonsense!

"The Western thieves are powerful and should not be underestimated!" Wen Yanbo spoke very slowly, and the way he spoke every word made people think of the old fox.

"Just when they were shouting, someone shouted loudly." The spy looked at Shen An and showed admiration, "That person shouted: Madam, Shen An is waiting for you in Bianliang!"

Damn it!

Shen An's head was instantly covered with black lines, and he really wanted to die.

"The man also recited the poem Shen Longtu wrote for Liang, about spending time in bed day and night..."

Everyone in the room was looking at Shen An with strange expressions.

A pre-laughing atmosphere was instantly filled.

"There was laughter in front of the palace. Mrs. Liang's face was ashen and she asked people to fetch him."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Han Qi took the lead, and even Wen Yanbo couldn't suppress his so-called magnanimity and burst into laughter.

The spy was confused and didn't know why they were laughing.

"Longing in bed day and night, hahahaha!"

Han Qi rubbed his belly and gasped: "This is to shame Ms. Liang in public. It must be a good thing done by someone who disobeys her."

"Later, Mrs. Liang said in public that if she colluded with Shen Longtu, she would definitely become a prisoner in the future."

Han Qi smiled and said: "I am a prisoner, this is a great kindness."

Wen Yanbo nodded, "Then let her do it."

The two looked at Shen An together.

Wen Yanbo didn't have much research on strategy and was unwilling to make a fool of himself in public; Han Qi had the same idea, so they both looked at Shen An, waiting for him to analyze.

"It's just hysteria." Shen An understood this clearly. "The area where the Western bandits thrived was taken back by the Song Dynasty. Now that the economy is collapsing and food is scarce, the Liang family knows that they and the so-called Great Xia have already arrived. The last moment...

Why did Song Dynasty retreat after half the battle last time? First, the entire army has been making surprise attacks. It seems easy, but it is already at the end of its strength.

Secondly, the Liao army was constantly attacking, and Yelu Hongji knew very well the truth behind the scenes. Therefore, if they continued to attack the Western bandits, the Liao people would go crazy, and the Song Dynasty would be attacked from both sides. "

Shen An waved over the map, "The purpose of this battle in the Song Dynasty has been achieved, which is to seize two horse-raising lands and a lot of cultivated land. In this way, the Song Dynasty can easily store war horses in the northwest, and can also raise food and grass locally. , the next battle...recover!"

Next battle, take back.

The Song Dynasty has always regarded the Western thieves as rebellious and refused to recognize them as an independent country, so Shen An used the word "recover".

Wen Yanbo's breath tightened and he looked at Shen An with complex eyes, "In other words, the purpose of the Song Dynasty last time was to seize the horse breeding land and weaken the Western bandits by the way?"

"That's right." Shen An thought of Liang Xing, who didn't have a very good temper! "After they captured Lingzhou in that battle, the Western bandits were united and their army gathered in Xingqing Mansion, waiting to find the Song Dynasty to fight for their lives. However, we did not move and then retreated. The Western bandits hit nothing with one punch. It was so uncomfortable! Ha ha ha ha!"

The secret spy felt that Shen An was really a god, "Shen Longtu was right. The Western bandits were very powerful that time, but after the Song Dynasty retreated, the momentum had no place to go and it was released immediately."

Han Qi said: "A big man is looking for someone to fight for his life, but he finds that person crouching behind a shield with a bow and arrow in his hand. It's considered good if he doesn't get angry and vomit blood. This is the saying that the strength of the enemy will be exhausted again and again. This is the truth. "

He glanced at Shen An and said, "Shen An insisted on withdrawing the troops. Many people in the army were dissatisfied and said that they wanted to plow the courtyard and sweep the holes. Later I learned that hundreds of thousands of people had gathered in Xingqing Mansion. Regardless of whether there were women and children inside, Xi The thieves are fierce, how can we fight with hundreds of thousands of people?"

That battle was the battle that established the Song Dynasty's external tone.

"The Western thieves won't last long." Shen An said firmly: "They lost the most prosperous place, and there are many conflicts in the country. The key is that Liang is a Han, and the Western thieves and dignitaries don't trust her at all. If they can win externally, they will That’s all, but after repeated defeats and losing all prestige, how long can the Liang family survive? It looks like it will be in danger next year.”

Wen Yanbo narrowed his eyes and looked at him, feeling a little sad in his heart, "You want to say... something will happen within the Western Bandits?"

"Absolutely." Shen An smiled and said: "The Western Bandits are a den of robbers. Whoever can lead them to grab good things will be their leader. Li Yuanhao could do it back then, so he was regarded as the leader. Li Liangzuo is It's far worse. If she doesn't die early, the follow-up will be troublesome. It's even worse when it comes to the Liang family, so... it depends on her fate."

Wen Yanbo nodded, "With these words, I know the situation in Xixia very well. Anbei, you are indeed our number one general in the Song Dynasty."

You can't eat the old fox's sugar-coated bullets. If you eat them, you will suffer from indigestion.

Shen An smiled and said, "Everyone knows these principles."

Wen Yanbo laughed, but Han Qi asked: "Does Wen Xiang know?"

This is targeted.

Wen Yanbo said calmly: "Of course I know."

"Best regards, Wen Xiang!" Han Qi stood up and went out laughing, followed by Shen An.

The room was quiet, Wen Yanbo was thinking.

"Actually, I don't know." He suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Shen An knows the Western bandits very well. This is a gift. I heard that he once discussed the Western bandits with others all night long. This is hard work. I am old, but I am not as good as young. People. But he said that Mr. Liang was in danger, but I thought that Mr. Liang would not survive this year.

In the last war, the Song Dynasty won Lingzhou and stopped attacking. This not only discouraged the Western thieves, but also caused the discord between the Liang family and those powerful people to explode, leaving them to fight among themselves. This is a weapon that conquers the enemy without fighting. Now it seems that the opportunity has arrived. Shen An's move has a far-sighted vision, which is rare in the court, but it makes me feel a little competitive..."

"So competitive!" Wen Yanbo narrowed his eyes slightly, "I feel that I am light and healthy, so I just want to take a look and see what this young man can do."

Zhao Shu and others also thought that something was wrong with Liang.

"As a woman of the Liang family, those powerful men hold military power. If they really want to take action, how can she stop them?"

Fu Bi's eyes were full of evil spirits, "Your Majesty, send out troops. The Song Dynasty just plowed the court and swept the holes, and wiped out the Western thieves in one fell swoop."

"The civil strife in the West is a good time to take action."

"I second the proposal!"

The court was agitated, and memorials calling for war were piled high on the imperial court.

Zhao Shu was also very excited and told Gao Tao that Jiaozhi was about to destroy the country, and the Western thieves might not survive.

Shen An had no time to care about this because there was a fire in the backyard of his home.

"Daddy, daddy!"

Maodou's calling her father was so rhythmic that Shen An couldn't help but pick her up and kiss her hard.

"Ahhhh..." Maodou danced and shouted, not knowing whether he disliked it or liked it.

Shen An teased Maodou for a while, UU reading www.uukanshu.net Seeing that Yang Zhuoxue was silent at the side, he asked: "What's going on? Are you angry with Taro? Go back and deal with him for your husband."

Taro is naughty, but the key is that preaching is useless. He often makes Yang Zhuoxue and Guoguo so angry that they want to deal with them.

Yang Zhuoxue shook his head, "Official, dad said you are doing something big, which is very threatening. If you don't do it well, you will be infamy for thousands of years."

"Nothing." Shen An smiled, but admired her father-in-law's sense of smell.

"Dad said that we would not collect taxes from the people. This is a great kindness."

"Yes!" Shen An put the edamame on his head, and the little kid suddenly became overjoyed and giggled.

"But you are taking risks. Once someone outside says that you are in Shi'en, you will have committed a big taboo."

"That's what the king said." Shen An was already prepared.

"Dad said you can't hide it from smart people." Yang Zhuoxue said worriedly: "Dad drank too much and sighed for a long time, saying that young people are brave after all, but they don't know how to deal with the consequences."

Shen An was speechless. When Zhao Xu called someone to invite him into the palace, he naturally had a bad expression.

…

Zhao Xu was very busy because Baoan's marriage could no longer be postponed.

Gao Taotao issued an order, saying that he must find a candidate for Baoan's consort this year, otherwise no one would be able to live well.

Once a woman is unreasonable, you can't convince her unless you take action.

Of course, you can't do anything, so Zhao Shu broke down the task. Zhao Xu was honored to assume the responsibility of 'selecting the chief expert for the prince's consort'.

"Take care." Shen An handed over his hand, feeling that Gao Taotao wanted to take this opportunity to deal with this guy.
