A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

"Prince Chen Zhongheng went to Zhao Yunliang's house with several carts of account books."

"Hahahaha! Okay!"

"Prince, Zhao Yunliang fainted!"

"Fake!"

Old Zhao was so happy that he even forgot about the imperial doctor's instructions for him to rest for a few days.

"Where's Zhongzhen?"

The children and grandchildren came to persuade him, but the result was predictable: Lao Zhao would not listen.

When he saw that his beloved grandson was no longer there, he became angry.

"Are you still venting your anger on Zhong Zhen? You beast, get out!"

A group of children and grandchildren looked at each other, and one of them said sarcastically: "Dad, didn't Zhong Zhen say that he should be alone for three days? Have you...forgot?"

Zhao Yunrang just remembered this, but he still said with a straight face: "I don't know how to remind me, they are a bunch of beasts!"

The children and grandchildren looked constipated and thought, didn't Zhao Zhongzhen tell you personally? You forgot it and blamed others.

He strode outside Zhao Zhongzhen's room and shouted: "Zhongzhen, come out."

Zhao Zhongzhen's voice came from inside, "My grandson still has two days to go. Let's have a good rest."

Being alone in a quiet room... the feeling is actually similar to being in confinement.

That taste...

Zhao Zhongzhen regretted it.

All the doors and windows are closed, and the light in the room is very poor.

Fear, boredom, loneliness...

He gradually thought about his past, and then remembered the situation at home.

Weng Weng is getting older, and it is very difficult to support the family independently.

But currently there is no one in the family who can replace him...

He thought of his father again.

That was a poor man. From being brought into the palace as a child, to becoming the lucky one that attracted everyone's attention, to returning home alone from the palace, he received countless looks and ridicules... and then he collapsed.

He was afraid of the palace and subconsciously did not want to have anything to do with the word emperor.

But as Shen An said, the less you want something, the more God will give it to you.

Most of the world is like this.

Weng Weng is getting old, and dad needs to recover from illness...

I have to work hard!

Two days later, he walked out of the room and saw his grandfather and father.

"Weng Weng, Daddy."

He looked at the long-lost sunshine and felt that the world was very beautiful.

Zhao Yunrang said with satisfaction: "You are growing up slowly, good."

Zhao Zhongzhen felt that he still needed to grow faster.

He went to Shen's house.

"Brother, Huahua ran away!"

Guoguo stood under the tree, pouting and akimbo.

There was a deck chair under the tree, and Shen An was lying on it, with a book covering his face.

"Flower."

Shen An shouted in confusion, and Huahua rushed out from the direction of the door.

Also coming with him was Zhao Zhongzhen.

"Brother Anbei, I, Wengweng, said I want to thank you."

Shen An took the book away from his face and saw that he was empty-handed, so he asked, "What about the thank you gift?"

Zhao Zhongzhen said in confusion: "I forgot."

Shen An pointed to the side, and after Zhao Zhongzhen sat down, he said: "Many times, bad things will turn into good things. This is the case in your family, so don't worry about it."

"No worries."

Zhao Zhongzhen briefly talked about the situation in the past few days, and Shen An lost all sleep.

Damn it!

Did Lao Zhao almost get tricked to death by me?

What would be the consequences if Zhao Yunrang crossed his legs?

Shen An was frightened and asked Zhao Yunliang how he was doing.

"The palace sent some more account books."

"puff!"

Shen An couldn't help laughing.

He felt that Zhao Zhen was really mischievous.

…

"...The Prince of Runan County said that his grandson has grown up and is very happy."

Someone else’s grandson!

Zhao Zhen was a little bitter, but still nodded slightly.

He is the emperor, and besides venting his anger, he also has to consider the future of the Song Dynasty.

So he was observing the performance of these two families.

"Prince Huayuan is said to have fainted from anger."

Chen Zhongheng didn't know what kind of news this was.

Good or bad...

The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth moved imperceptibly, "Where are the staff?"

"Still."

Chen Zhongheng mourned for Zhao Yunliang for a moment in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the princes are here."

"Please come."

Zhao Zhen sat upright and straightened his clothes.

The prime ministers and assistants came together to explain what happened in the Song Dynasty that caused them a headache.

Fu Bi took the lead, and the ministers and assistants filed in.

"What's the matter?"

Zhao Zhen felt a little dizzy. I've been feeling this way for a while, so it's best to go to sleep.

But if you sleep during the day, you will have insomnia again at night.

What a shame!

Fu Bi said in a deep voice: "Song Xiang, please tell me."

Song Xiang, who had just "killed relatives for justice", went out and said: "Your Majesty, I have just arrived to report that Jiaozhi has harassed Qinzhou and plundered many people and livestock."

Zhao Zhen instantly wanted to smash something.

At this moment, he was extremely envious of that old guy Zhao Yunrang.

Zhao Yunrang had a loud voice, and anyone would dare to scold him when he was unhappy. Sometimes he would scold him as the emperor at home, and his voice was so loud that if the surroundings were quiet, the neighbors could hear him.

I also want to curse people!

"Xiao Zhu, the governor of Guangxi Province, said that if Jiaozhi dissatisfied with Wang Hua, it would be a crusade..."

The so-called Guangxi refers to Guangnan West Road, which borders Jiaozhi.

Song Xiang raised his head and glanced at Zhao Zhen and said: "Jiaozhi... is a barren land. Our government also spent a lot of money at the beginning. If it weren't for Di... if it weren't for the wise officials, Jiaozhi would have taken advantage of the situation when Nong Zhi was high. We have invaded the Song Dynasty. Officials, please be careful!"

At that time, the southwest of the Song Dynasty was full of wars and the situation was corrupted by Nong Zhigao. If Di Qing had not been enabled to go there, I am afraid that the southwest would no longer be owned by the Song Dynasty.

Song Xiang glanced at Han Qi and nodded apologetically.

I didn't mean to mention Di Qing, don't get me wrong.

Zhao Zhen said angrily: "Back then, Nong Zhigao rebelled, and Li Dezheng asked to send troops to help, but who can't recognize the ambition of such a wolf? Is his son going to provoke the Song Dynasty today?"

The current ruler of Jiaozhi is called Li Rizun.

Li Rizun's father was called Li Dezheng. He was an opportunist. He actually wanted to take advantage of Nong Zhigao's rebellion in the southwest of the Song Dynasty to raise troops into the Song Dynasty.

This idea is really too simple. How could the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty agree and say that they have sent Di Qing? You are not afraid of death, so come and try it.

Di Qing wore a mask and wore his hair down before the battle. The rebels such as Nong Zhigao who were killed in the southwest were frightened by the news. This battle also effectively deterred Jiaozhi's ambitions, and the southwest border of the Song Dynasty was peaceful.

Now Di Qing has died of fear, the stars of the Song Dynasty have withered, and foreign enemies are watching again.

Zhao Zhen suddenly felt regretful and thought that if Di Qing was here, how could the Jiaozhi people dare to invade the territory to rob and kill.

Han Qi lowered his head slightly and pursed his lips tightly.

certain!

Zhao Zhen patted his thigh, wiped away his regrets, and said, "Call the Third Division... I heard that Wang Anshi has a lot of research on Du Zhi. Let him come and convene people to discuss the matter."

He remembered that Song Qicai, the envoy of the Third Division, was decentralized and that the Third Division was currently in a state of chaos.

But in this chaos, Wang Anshi, who was studying the annual income and expenditure of the Song Dynasty alone, stood out.

How could the emperor not like an official who did not fight for power but concentrated on his work?

Shen An was also among those summoned. When he arrived at the palace, he saw that Bao Zheng and Wang Anshi were there. The faces of the prime ministers and ministers were solemn, and they felt a thump in their hearts.

After everyone arrived, Zhao Zhen said slowly: "Jiaozhi attacked Qinzhou, killed people and looted, and the Qinzhou area was uneasy."

His eyes swept over the ministers, waiting.

"beat!"

These words were categorical, and when Zhao Zhen saw it, it was Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng said: "Your Majesty, since Li Dezheng, Jiaozhi has never forgotten to covet the Song Dynasty. It's time to teach them a lesson."

Fu Bi said: "It's easy to say fight, but who will lead the army? Once the two sides are entangled and it lasts for a long time... the southwest will be corrupted."

He looked behind him, his eyes blank.

Who can lead the army?

It seems not possible.

It was customary for civilian officials to lead the army, but looking at these colleagues, Fu Bi felt desperate.

At this time, a person passed through his mind.

Di Qing!

If Di Qing was here...

He turned around and said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Zhu suggested that the goods sent as tribute from Cochin should be withheld as compensation."

They talked about a crusade earlier, but later they even talked about detaining the goods... Isn't this child's play?

Shen An watched from the side, thinking of the entanglement between Zhongyuan and Jiaozhi in later generations, and said: "Hit!".

Seeing that it was him who came out, Fu Bi thought that this was the normal Shen An. He said: "Anbei underestimated me. If I can fight, I am willing to lead the army myself, but... Song Dynasty is looking at the north now. Once the southwest reaches a deadlock, the Liao Kingdom and Xixia in the north will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble. By then..."

"At that time, the sky will be filled with blood, and the Song Dynasty will be in a dilemma."

He asked Wang Anshi: "Judge Wang is here, let's talk about it. Once the Song Dynasty and Jiaozhi are in a stalemate, the expenses may be able to support it."

Wang Anshi originally wanted to fight, but at this moment he could only shake his head and said: "I can't hold on."

Fu Bi nodded to Shen An, and then said: "Your Majesty, please send an envoy to scold Li Rizun. In addition, you can ask everyone on Guangnan West Road to discuss and strengthen vigilance. If there is another entry, we will resolutely expel them!"

This is the most appropriate way to respond.

This Prime Minister is good.

Zhao Zhen nodded and immediately asked Zhi Zhi Gao Liu Chang to start drafting the decree.

Shen An was watching, with all kinds of thoughts running through his mind.

There were no elite soldiers in the south of the Song Dynasty, and there were not many in the north. They had to guard against the Liao people and could not mobilize them. The main elites are all near the capital, but this is the force used to defend the capital. If there is a war, most of them will be transferred...

Who would agree?

Even Bao Zheng will not agree to it!

Fu Bi said that they could not fight because the Song Dynasty's defense focus was in the north. Once the fight with Jiaozhi came to a stalemate, the two opponents in the north would definitely take advantage of it.

This is inevitable.

From ancient times to the present, there has never been any contract between countries.

Those who signed the contract knew that breaking the contract was the ultimate goal.

The so-called Chanyuan Alliance was only the result of both parties being unwilling to continue the fight. Once the Song Dynasty was weak, the speed at which the Liao people broke the contract would surprise those gentlemen.

But the Song Dynasty was not a good person. When the Liao people were beaten by the Jin people and couldn't take care of themselves, they took the lead in breaking the contract and then launched an attack.

So Cochin is not a serious problem, but it is best not to irritate it.

Madan! Jiaozhi is really as disgusting as a gopher!

It has never stopped since ancient times. UU read www.uukanshu.net

It’s time to mess with him!

Shen An felt that it was time to practice Jiaozhi, so he went out and said, "Your Majesty, please train your troops!"

He said this naturally, as naturally as he burped after eating.

Since there are no elite soldiers in the south, can we train elite troops?

The king and his ministers all looked over instantly, with surprised eyes.

Even Liu Chang, who was drafting the edict, stopped and looked over.

this……

At this moment, a name appeared in their minds.

Shen Bian!

That person has left, but his son stood up today and shouted the same words.

Your Majesty, please train your troops!
