A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Those fire heads were burning like maggots on the tarsus. Zhang Baanba looked at Shen An with complex eyes: "Once you are touched by such a fire head, the only way is to cut off the piece of flesh. It's such a cruel fire."

Shen An smiled very calmly and said, "If necessary, someone can spray out this fire with something. Can the Eagle Claw Technique block it?"

Zhang Baba said coldly: "Can you squirt?"

How to spray this kind of fire?

Shen An said helplessly: "Create a pressure vessel, then light the fire and compress the air, and the flames will spurt out. Although it is not far away, the people close to it will be dead."

Zhang Baibian wanted to sneer, but Zhao Zhongzhen looked matter-of-fact and asked, "What is this?"

"Miscellaneous studies."

Shen An shook his head, feeling that he was talking to these people about this.

"Miscellaneous studies?"

Zhang Baba felt that he might have underestimated this knowledge.

After returning to the Imperial City Division, he summoned several of his subordinates for questioning.

"What did the miscellaneous studies do?"

"Divine Crossbow."

"Golden Fat Pill."

"And that thing that absorbs water."

"...It doesn't seem like much."

The subordinates were all talking, and finally someone said: "Actually, the place with the most miscellaneous studies is in Taixue. It is said that there are students there doing some...experiments? It's very magical."

"The Shenwei Crossbow is a powerful weapon for military strategists. Once this weapon comes out of the Song Dynasty, you can be sure to defend the city. The Golden Fertilizer Pill is a powerful weapon for farmers. It is said that farmers around Bianliang are using it. If they all increase their income next year... everyone knows that Shen An will be a millionaire." A savior in the eyes of thousands of farmers.”

This thing, if it were in later generations, would probably be called 'Shen. Archdruid. An'. ’

Zhang was silent for eight years, and then went to see Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen is taking a nap.

"Official family."

"Um?"

Zhao Zhen opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Bianba blankly, then he hummed and sat upright.

His breathing was a little rapid, his face gradually flushed, and his eyes recovered slowly.

"Guan Jia, I saw Shen An playing with fire earlier. The fire was as fierce as tarsal maggots. He said this was something from the miscellaneous studies. I was thinking... the miscellaneous studies made a divine crossbow and a golden weapon. Fat Dan..."

"Um."

Zhao Zhen was still a little sluggish.

"He is so good at miscellaneous studies, but Shen An is teaching at Taixue. If some of those students are connected to other vassals, such as Liao people or Xixia people, officials, I think it is inappropriate."

He imagined the scene: countless pipes were aimed at the city of Song Dynasty, and then spewed out the will-o'-the-wisps he had seen before. The will-o'-the-wisps burned crazily, and the enemy troops laughed wildly under the city...

That is the doomsday scene!

Zhao Zhen's mind was spinning slowly, and he said after a long time: "Taixue...those are all students of the Song Dynasty, so it's okay. The Imperial City Secretary should keep a close eye."

"yes."

Zhang resigned in eight years, and Zhao Zhen gradually regained his energy and ordered: "Let the prime ministers and assistants come, as well as the privy envoys and the third envoys."

While waiting, he ate a bowl of yokan.

The yokan was delicious, but after eating it, he rubbed his stomach and said, "I feel bloated."

Later Han Qi and others came.

"It's the end of the year, and there are a lot of expenses everywhere. How about Sansi?"

Bao Zheng shook his head and said, "It's difficult, Your Majesty. I suggest you give me a smaller reward."

The New Year is coming. As an emperor, Zhao Zhen naturally cannot be stingy, but must reward his ministers and clan members.

Zhao Zhen's eyes were dull and he said calmly: "Let's think of another way."

Bao Zheng wanted to rant, but in the end he said helplessly: "Yes, I know."

If the New Year is fast-paced, it will affect the image of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Zhen looked at Zhang Sheng and asked, "Are the Liao people quiet?"

Zhang Sheng said: "They suffered a loss in Xiongzhou, and then Yelu Hongji cleaned up the civil and military officials in Xijin Mansion. The new ones are quite honest."

Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "This is because I was beaten and frightened. It seems that this is what the Liao people are afraid of."

Only when the fist is strong can the waist be strong. At this moment, Zhao Zhen deeply understood this truth.

Zhang Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "It's just a small fight."

Zhao Zhen looked at Han Qi, "How is the clan?"

Han Qi was shocked, lowered his head and said, "I'm watching."

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "That's very good."

He got up and walked outside. Chen Zhongheng quickly got a thick robe and put it on him.

It's cold outside, but the sunshine is nice.

Zhao Zhen turned around and said: "Call the prince to come, and all the ministers to come too. Let's go and see the royal book and the auspicious signs together."

Han Qi felt relieved and said with a smile: "Does the official have to take care of a meal?"

Zhao Zhen pointed at him and said with a smile: "How about I just take care of it?"

Everyone laughed together.

Then everyone went to Longtu Pavilion and Tianzhang Pavilion to read the imperial books and auspicious signs of the emperors of the past dynasties.

Zhao Zhen was in high spirits. After the banquet was set, he frequently raised his glass to invite people to drink.

After getting a little tipsy, he asked for a big cup, filled it with wine himself, and then waved: "Han Qing is here."

Han Qi stood up and came closer. Zhao Zhen picked up the big cup and said with a smile: "The world has been peaceful for many years, and you have worked hard and made great achievements. The joy of today's monarch and ministers should be passed down to future generations..."

Han Qi took the cup and drank it in one gulp.

"This is deer fetus wine."

Han Qi nodded and praised: "It tastes good."

Zhao Zhen smiled and clapped his hands, "Let's sing and dance."

Singing and dancing were good company for drinking, and this time the monarch and his ministers drank until late at night before they dispersed.

Queen Cao just laughed when she got the news.

"Are the officials holding a peace banquet?"

Quietness in the palace is peace...

Early the next morning, Queen Cao was having breakfast when she saw Chen Zhongheng rushing in rolling and crawling.

She put down her chopsticks and said calmly: "I know."

Before Chen Zhongheng could say a word, Queen Cao had already walked out of the room.

Her steps were getting faster and faster, and Chen Zhongheng had to jog to keep up.

The cold wind was biting, but Queen Cao's expression was even grimmer.

All the way to Funing Hall, there were already people standing outside the West Pavilion, and everyone looked depressed.

Queen Cao said in a deep voice: "Get out of the way!"

Everyone avoided it, and Empress Cao strode in from the middle. Chen Zhongheng behind him actually felt some murderous aura.

This queen is incredible!

The West Pavilion is the bedroom, and Queen Cao walked in without any hesitation.

If you go, this New Year will have no color anymore...

The world is pure...

The first thing you see when you enter is the imperial doctor.

A row of imperial doctors gathered together and murmured, using various terms and medicine names.

And Zhao Zhen was lying alone on the bed, staring blankly into the void.

Normally he couldn't hear the footsteps, but he still turned his head, smiled at Empress Cao with tears in her eyes, and then reached out with difficulty...

"This time...I am...ok...ok...this time..."

Empress Cao straightened her back, glanced at the imperial doctors, and shouted: "Go out and tell us!"

An old imperial doctor wanted to say a few words based on his seniority. Queen Cao glanced at him, and the coldness in her eyes made him throw away his hands and step back.

The imperial doctors went out, and Queen Cao walked to the bedside, her eyes gradually softened, "Guan, please take a good rest this time."

Zhao Zhen muttered: "I...I feel fine, but I just don't have the strength."

Empress Cao said firmly: "Let's take a rest, okay?"

Zhao Zhen looked at her with some dissatisfaction in his eyes, but Queen Cao did not give in.

"My concubine is a woman, why are you usurping the throne? Can Wu Zhao be reborn? First of all, the prime minister in the court will not allow it."

Empress Cao sighed: "Even if he usurps the throne, he should be an outsider. You should rest and don't think about it."

Zhao Zhen closed his eyes and said, "It's time for the prime ministers and assistants to arrive."

"Officials, please see me."

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "No, I'm talking outside the door."

He is an emperor and does not want his ministers to see his weak side.

So Han Qi and others asked outside the door: "May I ask if your majesty is okay?"

"I'm fine, I just need to rest for a while, and I have to worry about the affairs of the foreign court... The daily memorials are sent to me to read."

As long as he doesn't fall completely, he will not give up the rights in his hands.

"yes."

Han Qi and others resigned.

"My name is Zhang for eight years."

Zhang Baibian came later, and Zhao Zhen leaned on the bedside and said weakly: "Keep an eye on everywhere..."

"yes."

This is the main responsibility of the Imperial City Division.

"Let Li Zhang come."

Zhao Zhen thought for a while, "That's all, if he comes, I'm afraid it will be a storm in the city."

Queen Cao frowned at the side and said: "So what if the city is full of storms? It's just a good time to see who is rebellious."

"You woman..."

Zhao Zhen felt that the main reason why he didn't like Queen Cao was that she was too strong.

Empress Cao sneered and said: "How many Forbidden Army are there in Bianliang City and the surrounding areas? Most of the elite Forbidden Army are here. Are we still afraid of them?"

Zhao Zhen lowered his eyes, feeling exhausted coming over him like a tide.

He lay down slowly and said: "The palace should be careful..."

"I know this."

…

The official fell ill.

The news was immediately blocked. Han Qi said with a dark face in the political hall: "Who dares to talk nonsense, kill! If others don't dare to kill, I will kill!"

He found a long sword and hung it on his waist, but there was too much fat on his waist, and the hilt of the sword was pinned.

"Peace of mind, no one dares to say anything."

Ouyang Xiu rubbed his eyes and asked, "What did the imperial doctor say?"

Han Qi said: "They said the official family was fine."

Zeng Gongliang said: "Then it's over. Let's go to Funing Hall every day and say that there will be less things at the end of the year and the court will be over quickly."

Han Qi and Ouyang Xiu praised: "This is a great thing to say!"

So they started to cheat, pretending to go to Funing Hall every day, say a few words to Zhao Zhen outside the door, and then go back.

This deception has been hidden from most people, but not from those who are interested.

In the Beihai County Prince's Mansion, UU reads a book www.uukanshu.net Zhao Yunbi is drinking tea.

There were only him and Zhang Wen in the quiet room.

The aroma of the tea slowly came out. Zhang Wen took a sniff and said with satisfaction: "If I can do this every day for the next few decades, I will be very satisfied."

Zhao Yunbi said calmly: "It's just a small matter. After the matter is completed, you will naturally be my important minister."

Throughout history, he has been coveting, being dissatisfied, and then taking action.

Zhang Wen lowered his head slightly and said with a smile: "The prince is so complimentary, so..."

There was a sparkle in his eyes, and he raised his eyebrows and said: "This Song Dynasty will do great things. The north will suppress the Liao people and destroy Xixia...and then accumulate national strength. When the time comes, we will devote all our efforts to the Northern Expedition..."

Zhao Yunbi stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Avenge your shame!"

The two of them smiled at each other, then raised their teacups to greet each other from a distance.
