A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

The palace gradually became stable, and someone advised Zhao Shu to take a nap, but he refused.

He knew very well that during this period of time, many people would be watching him and watching his every move.

What kind of person is the new emperor?

Is it tough or as weak as the late emperor?

Zhao Shu had a realization the moment he ascended the throne: The emperor must keep a straight face and not show any emotions easily, otherwise his subordinates will use this to figure out your character and then seek to seize your power.

The struggle between the monarch and his ministers is always without gunpowder, but it is fierce.

The late emperor Qingli failed in his reforms and was suppressed by his ministers ever since.

What about me?

The corners of Zhao Shu's mouth turned down slightly, looking a little cold.

"Your Majesty, Shen An would like to see you."

The downward-turned corners of his mouth returned to their normal angle, and Zhao Shu nodded, with more satisfaction in his eyes.

Shen An came in. Before he could salute, Zhao Shu smiled and said, "How's it going?"

"Qin Zhanliang, the Marquis of Yu, the capital of the heroic army, is..."

Shen An glanced around, and Zhao Shu said coldly: "Get out of here!"

The chamberlains and maids withdrew one after another.

Shen An frowned slightly and said: "A man named Mr. Xiaoshan instigated rebellion. Qin Zhanliang led more than a hundred of his confidants to instigate and make noise in the army. The brave army bombed the camp, but I was lucky enough to arrive to intercept..."

He said it was easy, but Li Zhang knew it was not easy.

Han Qi also knew, and everyone knew, the danger hidden in these simple words.

If the Shen Yong Army had lost control at that time, Shen An would have been hacked to death.

Zhao Shu naturally knew this truth, so he said, "Why take risks?"

Taking risks?

Shen An had never paid attention to this. Now that he was reminded, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"I forgot at the time."

"forget?"

Zhao Shu couldn't help laughing and said: "Others would probably brag about how fearless and loyal they are, but you say you have forgotten..."

The ministers and ministers also laughed, and Bao Zheng said: "Your Majesty, Shen An is young and speaks straightforwardly. At that time, he probably couldn't think about why. When he thought about it, he was probably scared."

Zhao Shu was surprised, "Yes, but I asked a bit stupidly."

Just like those stupid reporters in later generations who chased the brave people and asked: "What did you think before saving people?"

how to think?

Think about it!

That's the instinctive reaction!

If you think about it, you will probably hesitate or just watch.

Zeng Gongliang smiled and said: "I was in Yongzhou at that time. Shen An tricked me into going into battle to kill the enemy. I remember at that time... He said who was a real man, but the man's things were still there... When I saw him, I rushed forward and fought in a bloody battle. , my mind got hot, and I didn’t think about anything, so I just went up with my long sword.”

Lao Zeng was chasing the enemy in Yongzhou. When the news came, the civil and military officials in the court were shocked. They all felt that he was the first civilian official to kill the enemy.

Now that he has disclosed his mental journey at that time, everyone thought it would be a bit exciting, but they didn't expect it to be so dull.

Han Qi asked curiously: "What happened afterwards?"

"afterwards?"

Zeng Gongliang said with a smile: "I vomited all over my horse's face and fell off it. Fortunately, I was rescued. I was thinking about it afterwards... I found that I was indeed very bold at the time. If I didn't go up and kill the enemy, I would definitely regret it. I will regret it for the rest of my life.”

Is it that simple?

If you don't kill the enemy, you will regret it.

Zeng Gongliang nodded and said that this was his mental journey.

Zhao Shu praised: "Although it is not soul-stirring, it is real and makes me want to watch the battle."

Everyone looked at each other in shock, thinking that you should not go on any personal expedition.

When Zhenzong was forced by Kou Zhun to conduct a personal expedition, the morale of the Song army was greatly boosted, and then they held back the Liao people. In the end, the Liao people had no choice but to ask for their money and leave.

That is the Chanyuan Alliance.

Regardless of whether the Chanyuan Alliance is right or wrong, if we just talk about the personal conquest by the emperor, the effect is indeed leverage, but the risk is not small.

If the war is defeated and the emperor is captured, the Song Dynasty can clean up and go to sleep.

There will never be another Kou Laoxi, nor will there be another incompetent and opinionated Zhenzong, so Yujia's personal conquest should be the last word.

When Bao Zheng saw that Shen An was not injured, he asked, "The city is in chaos, where are Guoguo and the others?"

Han Qi frowned and said, "This is the palace."

It's business time now, what kid are you talking about?

Bao Zheng said plausibly: "He is going to fight for the officialdom. Who will take care of his wife and children at home? Why should he be worried?"

Han Qi turned away, not wanting to compete with him.

"Fortunately, they are outside the city now."

Sooner or later these things will be told, so Shen An chose to be calm.

"That Mr. Xiaoshan..."

Zhao Shu's eyes became colder: "Where are you from?"

Shen An said: "The person from the county king in the north."

In the Song Dynasty, there were no titles in the southeast, northwest or north. The prince in the north was Zhao Yunbi, the prince of Beihai.

Zhao Shu's eyes narrowed and he said coldly: "He wanted to force him into the palace before, but I was still wondering where he had the confidence. It turns out that the confidence is the Divine Warriors!"

Han Qi was extremely frightened and said, "Your Majesty, we must hurry up on this matter, otherwise the man may run away."

Zhao Shu smiled and said: "Zhao Yunbi can't run away. Are you talking about Mr. Xiaoshan? Shen An, do you think it's hard?"

He has not used Zhang for eight years, which shows that he still has little trust in the power of the palace and the army.

Shen An was an old friend of his when he was hiding in the mansion. He was very helpful to the county prince's palace, so he was naturally the person he trusted most at this moment.

Shen An said: "I also want to meet Mr. Xiaoshan and see why he has such thoughts."

Zhao Shu nodded, "Go ahead."

…

Today, the city of Bianliang is filled with gray smoke, and every household is burning paper, incense and candles.

There was no fire in the Beihai County Prince's Mansion, but the gray smoke from outside was still falling in.

Spring is here, everything is growing, and the flowers and trees in the courtyard are sprouting green. In a pool of water, fish swim leisurely.

Zhao Yunbi's cheeks were bruised and swollen, but he looked calm.

He let go of his hand, and a handful of corn fell into the pool. Several fish rushed over frantically to grab the food.

"Before, he was leisurely and contented, like a hermit in the mountains, but as soon as he saw food, his reserve disappeared. It can be seen that most of the nobility in the world is fake."

Zhao Yunbi rubbed his hands, and the corn stuck to his hands fell, triggering another round of fighting.

He turned sideways and said to Zhang Wen: "At that time, you said that we should be decisive. It would be best to let Qin Zhanliang kill Han Decheng, and then coerce the brave army into the palace to kill people in the chaos..."

Zhang Wen's horse face was full of a calm smile. He clapped his hands, raised his head and said: "Prince, we have always been decisive in such matters. The same was true for Emperor Taizu back then. When he was in Chenqiao, if he hesitated twice Today, this world may still be Zhou. Going back thousands of years, countless people are plotting rebellion, whether it is for ideals or greed, they have exhausted all means..."

"But how many people are successful? Why do those who fail fail?"

Zhang Wen smiled and said: "The loser may not have the strength, but most often he uses the wrong method or is not decisive enough."

Zhao Yunbi's eyes contained guilt: "I hesitated..."

"I wanted to test it out. It would be best if we could fight without losing blood, but... Zhao Shu actually looked calm, and the ministers and ministers all sided with him... Those princes were mostly pretending to be stupid."

Zhang Wen smiled and said: "Now that we have ascended the throne, those ministers are not fools. What is the risk of establishing a new king? It is so big that it will lose your head. At that time, I said that this matter should not be done, but... I did not blame you. This It’s...fate..."

He leaned over and stretched out his hand to stir the pool. The fish were not afraid, but instead gathered around and pecked at his fingers.

"These fish get used to no one killing them, and gradually forget about the danger, so they think this will work and that won't work... But in this world, swords and guns still have to speak, and whoever's swords and guns are sharper will win. "

He flicked his fingers, and the fish suddenly scattered away.

"I have read a book called The Story of Stone. There are many interesting things written in it."

Zhang Wen stood there with his hands behind his back, naturally looking cool and unrestrained.

"I like those lines the most, the jade is in the coffin for a good price, the hairpin is in the box waiting for it to fly. I am looking forward to that day in the prince's palace."

Zhao Yunbi sighed slightly and could only smile bitterly.

"Now I know that day is gone, but there are still a few sentences in the Stone Story..."

He walked slowly towards his room.

"Everyone in the world knows that gods are good, but they cannot forget their fame..."

His voice was clear and clear, without any hint of panic or despair.

Zhao Yunbi failed. As the elder of the county king, Zhao Shu would naturally not kill him, but from now on he would have to suffer in the mansion. But Zhang Wen, as a think tank, couldn't escape that knife.

"Where are the generals and ministers of ancient and modern times? A pile of grass has disappeared in the deserted tombs..."

Zhang Wen slightly raised his head and looked at the sky covered with gray smoke, and said: "If the emperor can come here, his fame will last forever."

The whole Bianliang is grieving for Zhao Zhen. When the news gets out later, the whole world will cry.

How can one not envy such a life?

Zhao Yunbi was envious, but he had no chance.

"But some people will be infamy for thousands of years!"

Zhang Wen turned around, looked at Shen An who was bringing someone in, and said with a smile, "Is the imperial edict here to take someone's life?"

Shen An nodded and said: "If you succeed today, Bianliang will become a sea of ​​blood. He is the king of the county and can escape through reincarnation, but you can't."

Zhao Yunbi stared at Shen An, the murderous look in his eyes could no longer be concealed: "You can actually suppress the brave army, why?"

They only learned that Shen An led 3,000 people to suppress the Shenyong Army, but they did not know the specific situation.

"Are you anxious? No, are you all internally burned?"

Shen An looked at him and said disdainfully: "Your people don't succeed enough and fail more than they do. Do you know why?"

Zhao Yunbi shook his head and Shen An said: "The most appropriate method at that time was to trick the soldiers into killing Han Decheng, so that everyone would board the pirate ship. Who could stop this force? Even if they could, the casualties would be heavy."

Zhao Yunbi looked at Zhang Wen, and all the previous distrust dissipated, "Minghuan, I was wrong."

Zhang Wen smiled freely and said, "The prince does not need to blame himself. I have said it before. This is fate."

Destiny is not in your hands, so you will naturally make mistakes.
