When the wind blows up the imperial city, the yellow flags on the towers of Beiyuan City are swaying in the wind.

Fu Jinzhan slowly walked up the stone steps, behind which a group of court ladies bowed and followed. The wind blew her dress against her body, and her hair was messed up. A few strands of blue silk fluttered in the wind and floated on Ruyu's face, adding to her beautiful face a little bit of poignancy.

When she came up, she saw a man in a martial suit standing alone on the Beiyuan pasture. He was Emperor Guo Shao of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Guo Shao's back was facing the tower, and his direction was not right. Fu Jinzhan raised his face and felt the wind direction in the air, guessing that Guo Shao followed the wind for the accuracy of his archery.

He shoots arrows there, repeating monotonously, pulling out an arrow to hit the bowstring, spreading his arms, aiming at the target ahead, aiming and staying for a while, then release the arrow. Then draw the arrow again, and the cycle repeats without any pause or accident.

"Pop!" There was a dull chord from time to time. After a while, there was another "pop".

The bowstring seemed to vibrate in Fu Jinzhan's heart. Somehow, she felt a pain in her heart when she saw this scene.

The **** Cao Tai said carefully: "Your Majesty met with the minister in the morning, read a time memorial, and shot arrows here until now."

Fu Jinzhan straightened his neck and looked down at the grass field without saying a word.

Guo Shao has become the emperor, and there are many people around him, but Fu Jinzhan believes that no one but himself really understands him, because people are different in height and see different things.

After a long time, Guo Shao finally turned around and found Fu Jinzhan's yellow shirt. He stood there looking up at this side, Fu Jinzhan also looked at him. The two of them were separated by a long distance, and the sound of the wind roared in the middle, and one of them looked at each other as if they had passed away, as if they had been looking at each other for a thousand years.

Cao Tai said: "This morning, Prime Minister Fan Zhi wrote a letter to make a statement, and his majesty was on the spot..."

Fu Jinzhan finally spoke: "Your Majesty is still a person who can tolerate compromise. As long as it benefits, he can negotiate peace with anyone, but he cannot negotiate with Liao alone."

Cao Tai hurriedly said: "Yes, the slave servant looks at Fan Zhi as a loyal and good person, but in reality he is a man of fame!"

Fu Jinzhan stood for a long time, turning around and leaving the tower without trying to persuade him.

... the more things a person has, the greater the responsibility he shoulders, and the smaller he is, the more he can walk on thin ice.

Guo Shao fully understands the seriousness of the matter, so he has not yet made a decision. But there was another unbearable unwillingness to block his chest, which made him unwilling to give up.

Sometimes when I think about it, I may be a bit prejudiced against Fan Zhi, which is why I am so dissatisfied with him. After the Central Plains has fought in these years, there are not many real strengths that can actually be fought. The Northern Expedition was only a little bit over at the beginning of the year, but the Northern Expedition has already been tried, otherwise the result will not be a hasty retreat.

Fan Zhi's suggestion is a bit harsh, but it is not a road, perhaps in their opinion is a very pragmatic way. The current situation in the world requires at least to unify most areas and establish a unified dynasty. It is not difficult, and the general trend is; holding on to the acquired turf and good governance is good for the emperor and the ministers and nobles who have obtained a lot of resources, at least sharing the prosperity and wealth. The problem...In history, the Central Plains found it difficult to take down Liao, and it did so.

But Guo Shao was not reconciled, and even more uneasy.

After practicing arrows for most of the day, he felt a sore waist and pain, and his arms were so weak that he left Beiyuan. In fact, this kind of exercise was changed to practice every day seven or eight years ago, and there has been a lack of exercise in the last two years.

Returning to the Hall of Grace, Guo Shao did not call any concubines to bed, and Yulian took care of her daily life.

When Yulian saw Guo Shao, she said: "Ms. Dong (Gao's) came to visit me that day. I know that she and her majesty had the meaning of Jin Lan, but she is not familiar with me..."

She glanced at Guo Shao, and then paused: "Mrs. Dong loves Jinsuo (the princess) very much. She gave a pair of gold bracelets with gems, which should be very expensive."

Women are indeed very sensitive to some things. Guo Shao pretended not to understand, and said: "If you give something, just accept it."

"Yeah." Yulian said.

Guo Shao sat down on the Jin Nan chair in front of the book case, stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, thinking of the Gao family, he also wondered that her wife had never run away and was arrested by the Khitanese... But it can also be imagined, Khitan Raid and harassment_ The plundering of the population is very serious!

The Central Plains dynasty seemed to them like a pasture. Not only savagely looted resources, but also robbed women for their lewdness, just like their brothel! The question is, why? !

Guo Shao's face became cold, and a sense of humiliation and anger came to his heart. The weak and the strong eat, in this world, the only way to fight is king.

The more he thought about it, the more dissatisfied he became, and because of this, his anger gradually faded. Guo Shao understands that although he has always been called benevolence and righteousness, for internal cohesion, it is not benevolence and righteousness that really wins. On the contrary, the more rational and cold-blooded, the easier it is to judge accurately.

He flipped through the files on the table and began to look at the strategies of Wang Pu, Wei Renpu, Cao Bin and others.

After looking at it for a while, he brought up the brush to write and draw on paper, and drew his own ideas. They were all circles and squares, analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, summed up experience and lessons, and deduced the strategies proposed by the ministers. .

... Guo Shao's life has become very regular, he is hardly close to female, let alone Fu Jinzhan. In the morning, I will meet with the central government officials as usual, and then pick some memorials to see. Then I went to Beiyuan to run, practice archery, and ride a horse until I was sweating and exhausted.

The situation in Hebei is urgent, and the ministers have all kinds of comments. But Guo Shao ignored it.

Instead of becoming irritable, he was more calm and patient than usual. He had a very good temper and never rebuked the minister. Only a calm state of mind can sensibly examine risks and various factors!

August 29, the eve of the Great Dynasty.

Guo Shao went to the Sanqing Palace after changing his regular track for many days. He sat in the temple for a while, not wanting to see Qingxu who was too dull, so he went straight to see the imperial concubine Zhang.

Zhang seemed to have learned that Guo Shao had come to Sanqing Hall, and had already dressed up and waited in the monotonous hall. Seeing Guo Shao, she was still a little flustered and hurried up to meet her.

Guo Shao was very casual. He even wore an old robe that he had worn for several years. He didn't even have a decorative jade pendant. If the robe was not silk, he would be a bit like a Taoist priest. People are changing. In the past, Guo Shao still liked gold, probably because he thought it would keep its value even after a thousand years; but then he lost interest in these things, because they lost their meaning to the highest position where there is no way out.

Guo Shao didn't sit by the chess table in front of the window. When he saw a book table with a scripture on it, he pointed to it and asked, "Can I read it?"

Zhang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please feel free. I usually have nothing to do, and follow the copied Taoist scriptures."

Guo Shao looked through it very carefully for a long time. Zhang also gradually adapted from the initial tense state, made tea, and sat down opposite Guo Shao.

A young woman who can concentrate on copying the scriptures every day, she must have a good temperament...Although she is forced.

Guo Shao looked at it for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Taoists seem to pay attention to no desires and no demands. Dao is natural."

Zhang smiled and said, "Exactly."

Guo Shao relaxed and asked casually: "Can copying scriptures work?"

Zhang glanced at him and shook his head slightly. Guo Shao saw that although she was wearing a Taoist gown, her lips were carefully smeared with a light rouge. Although it was deliberately very light, she could still see her modification.

She whispered: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for allowing me to go to the banquet last time."

Guo Shao said, "That banquet is actually not that interesting."

Zhang said: "It's always more interesting than copying the scriptures. It is really difficult for people to be truly wantless."

Guo Shao pondered for a moment and then said: "Today I just want to come to Sanqingdian to be quiet~www.readwn.com~ I came to harass the imperial concubine... I suddenly wondered if this would be imposed on you. Upset?"

Zhang shook his head without hesitation and blurted out: "Actually...Waiting for your majesty here also gives me a little hope..." She said that her face blushed, and she continued slowly, "Although there is always time It’s very long, and I understand that there is no result, but it’s so sad day after day."

Guo Shao looked at her. The pressure for many days made him unrestrained in his words and deeds at this time. He owed his body, moved his upper body closer, and whispered: "People's desires can be realized. If you give up, the level of desire is still not enough."

Zhang looked at him in surprise and could not speak.

Guo Shao originally thought of the Taoist temple for a moment to quiet down, but at this time the crazy ambition in his eyes was fully revealed, and it became more and more difficult to control himself.

Deep down in his heart, he originally felt that in ancient times he had reached the point of mastering the country and could do whatever he wanted, turning the world upside down. Unexpectedly, even a Youzhou could not be taken back, and he would be threatened and disturbed by the Liao army. This was something he couldn't accept! He should not be restricted by the rules here.
