A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 180: That Shen An bullied others too much

"ah!"

The spray of blood was so brilliant that the neighbors, who were already timid, couldn't help but cover their mouths, but the screams were still uncontrollable and alarmed the entire Yulin Alley.

Cao Ding had never experienced anything like this before. Severe pain came from the bridge of his nose, but he forgot to call and just turned around blankly...

"Why... why?"

He was answered with a fist and a kick...

When Shen An panted and stopped beating, Cao Ding lay at his feet, his face almost unrecognizable.

He tried hard to open his swollen eyes, but still said in disbelief: "You...you dare to beat...beat me? Why?"

The Cao family originated from the famous founding general Cao Bin. Although they lost hope of returning to the political center due to various reasons, the legacy left by their ancestors has not completely dissipated...

He was a little anxious to urinate when he came, but now he couldn't hold it in anymore, so the wet marks gradually spread and began to flow down his body.

It all started hastily, but ended quickly.

The neighbor looked here blankly and suddenly exclaimed: "I peed! I peed!"

Shen An looked deep into the alley and said calmly: "If you asked someone to test it, Shen wouldn't blame you. But you dared to block the road in Yulin Alley. It can be seen that you thought you were sure of Shen. You are so By the way, I also wanted to spread the news, so even if Shen doesn’t agree, my sister’s reputation will be ruined.”

Thinking of this, Shen An couldn't help but kicked him again.

Cao Ding screamed and said: "Good kick! Good kick! You are just waiting for death!"

Shen An said with a cruel smile: "Then Shen just waits..."

He felt that he had rested enough and was about to beat the guy again, but he caught something from the corner of his eye.

The door of Shen's house opened, and then a head poked out.

The little head looked left and right, and then a smile gradually appeared in the big eyes...

"elder brother……"

The weather was not very good, but in the Imperial City it was gloomy even when the sun was shining brightly, so no one cared about the weather.

Zhang Baibian was sitting outside the torture chamber. The screams inside almost never stopped, but he still looked numb.

A chamberlain hurriedly came over and said, "Do you all know that Cao Ding of the Cao family was beaten?"

Zhang Baibian's face was still calm, and there seemed to be will-o'-wisps burning in his deep-set eyes.

"Who did it?"

The chamberlain whispered: "It's Shen An."

The will-o'-the-wisp flickered, "Why?"

"It was said that Cao Ding wanted to use his son to marry Shen An's sister... Shen An was furious..."

Zhang Baba raised his hand, and the waiter hurriedly shut up, then stood with his hands tied, waiting for orders.

"Report it to the officials immediately."

The chamberlain thought of Empress Cao and asked, "You know, where is the saint?"

Zhang Baba raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said coldly: "Whose are you?"

The Imperial City Division belongs to the emperor, not the queen.

The waiter was almost scared to death by this sight. Zhang Baba shook his head slightly and shouted: "Go!"

The news rushed into the palace almost like flying. Zhao Zhen, who was reading the memorial, raised his head, looked at the chamberlain and asked: "But is there any news from Shen An and the Cao family?"

He felt that this news would make him lose his appetite for dinner, so he couldn't help but frown slightly, and then pressed his abdomen a few times.

The chamberlain said: "The official family failed."

Zhao Zhen felt relieved and couldn't help but smile: "That boy didn't disappoint me, okay! Come here, go get a bowl of yokan, I..."

The servant said tangledly: "The official family, the Cao family is afraid that they will become enemies with Shen An."

"Why?"

The smile on Zhao Zhen's face became even brighter.

Nowadays, courtiers like to put their arms around each other to keep each other warm, even Bao Zheng, who is known as Bao Qingtian, does the same. It took a lot of effort to create a Shen An who did not cling to the powerful. Zhao Zhen felt that this was the result of his charisma.

The chamberlain remembered the news and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Shen An violently beat Cao Ding in Yulin Alley."

I……

Zhao Zhen felt that Shen An should politely refuse, so that he would not offend the Cao family and gain favor with himself.

He asked in disbelief: "He beat Cao Ding?"

The chamberlain thought this was not good news, so he nodded with a sad face, "Yes, Guan Jia, the beating made his face covered with blood and he even urinated... It is said that Cao Ding's relatives can't recognize him."

"This boy!"

Zhao Zhen felt that the satisfaction in his heart was about to overflow.

What a great Shen An!

Such a young man makes me feel so reassured. If there are such selfless ministers in the court, then what should I worry about? Why did the Song Dynasty worry about not having a man?

At this moment, he accidentally thought of what Shen An said, and then said with emotion: "The Cao family... and the Queen, Shen An has to give a reason, right?"

If you beat Cao Ding violently and don't give a good reason, the Queen and the Cao family will not be easy to talk to.

The chamberlain blinked his eyes and looked a little pitiful.

"The official...he said...he said...he said that Cao Ding peed in Yulin Alley, which was immoral. After he scolded him, Cao Ding peed again...he also said..."

The chamberlain glanced at Zhao Zhen secretly, worried that he would be angry.

Zhao Zhen said expressionlessly: "What else did he say?"

The chamberlain's cheek twitched and he said: "He said... he has never seen such a shameless person without a beating... He felt that his thoughts were not smooth and he felt aggrieved, which would definitely affect his work for the official family and the great government. Song Jingfeng..."

After speaking, he lowered his head slightly and glanced before lowering his head.

Zhao Zhen said numbly: "Is that what he said?"

The chamberlain nodded and said, "Guan family, I don't dare to lie. Zhang Douzhi also got the news."

He waited quietly, but received no response.

Chen Zhongheng was also spying on Zhao Zhen's mood. He knew the emperor's thoughts well, so he felt a little surprised after seeing it.

Not angry?

Zhao Zhen's expression was neither angry nor happy, and he gradually had a headache.

He covered his forehead and said, "Why is that young man so..."

He wanted to say shameless, but in the end he held back.

When ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, they will probably say that Cao Ding is domineering or something. But Shen An actually talks nonsense and confuses right and wrong...

Will such a person...become a traitor?

He stood up and said, "I'll go to the queen's place and tell them to stay out of trouble."

Chen Zhongheng responded, and then glanced at the people waiting in the hall with a threatening tone.

Anyone who dares to talk too much in front of the queen should not blame me, Chen Zhongheng, for being cruel.

Zhao Zhen didn't know how he felt. When he saw the Queen again, Queen Cao was obviously not used to such frequent meetings.

"The official...is there something wrong?"

Under normal circumstances, Zhao Zhen would come to her place to sit for a while every now and then, and would stay overnight probably once or twice a month.

This is the honor of the queen, no more, no less, no bias, no leaning.

But what happened today?

Just separated!

Could it be that the officials thought I was more feminine and were attracted to me?

Empress Cao couldn't help but lower her head slightly and squeezed out a "shy" smile.

You've been lonely for so long, and you finally discovered the benefits of sister... But it's not too late!

Zhao Zhen didn't expect such a misunderstanding. He turned away and said, "Shen An rejected your cousin's marriage proposal..."

Empress Cao felt relieved, and then said with a smile: "How can Shen An be so well-informed? Official, you have gained another loyal minister. I congratulate you."

She has been worried about this matter. What worries her the most is that Shen An not only agreed to the baby's marriage, but also took the initiative to get close to the Cao family. The two families joined hands, and eventually both families became a thorn in the official family's side.

It's fine now, the two families are safe and sound, but the Cao family has been a bit reckless this time and needs to be beaten.

But it is difficult to blame the Cao family for this matter, because no one would have guessed that the official family would value Shen An so much.

Marriage between civil and military officials is somewhat taboo, but Shen An is just a small person waiting for an imperial edict at the moment. If it is settled at this moment, even if Shen An rises to great heights in the future, it will be difficult for others to criticize him.

This is the method of a powerful family. It is not clever, but it is practical and effective.

The old and powerful families all know this. Only the newcomers will be as straightforward as the nouveau riche, or as timid as mice, and then they will be despised by old nobles like the Cao family and isolated from that small circle.

The joy in Queen Cao's heart gradually dissipated, and then she felt some dissatisfaction.

My Cao family asked you to marry me, but you dared to refuse?

This reaction occurs to both men and women. It usually occurs when people relax after going through a difficult time, and various emotions are amplified.

After the fear dissipated, she returned to her heroic appearance. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

Zhao Zhen originally liked this look. When the palace was full of weak women, Queen Cao's heroic spirit was like a red flower among green leaves, eye-catching and heartwarming.

But Queen Cao was more heroic. When she encountered rebellion, she immediately began to command various forces in the palace to fight back against the rebellion...

What's this?

This is the general!

But what about me?

I turned out to be a little soldier.

It’s frustrating!

Zhao Zhen sighed slightly in his heart and said, "Shen An injured your cousin..."

Queen Cao asked in shock: "Why?"

Just like Zhao Zhen's reaction when he heard it before, Queen Cao was also a little confused.

Zhao Zhen felt that this place might become a place for a woman to vent, so he coughed dryly and said, "Say it's your cousin...anywhere...and...that's it, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Queen Cao almost went crazy. As soon as Zhao Zhen went out, Chen Zhongheng, who was a little behind, was forced to stop by the Queen's eyes.

If you don't tell me, I'll kill you if I find a chance!

The queen just bowed her head to the emperor. She had the support of the Cao family. If she really wanted to get angry, Chen Zhongheng would not be able to handle it.

Chen Zhongheng complained secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to stay for a long time or hide it, so he hurriedly said: "Sage, it was Cao Ding who... peed... everywhere..."

Your cousin defecated everywhere and was caught by Shen An.

After saying that, he quickly chased after him.

As soon as he left the palace, Chen Zhongheng heard a sound of gnashing of teeth.

"Then Shen An...that's too much!"

Once a woman gets angry, her hatred will last forever.

Shen An, wish yourself well!

Chen Zhongheng shrank his neck and decided to stay away from the queen recently.
