A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 286: Youthful Spirit

"The Fuzhou Army and the Mangshan Army wiped out the remnants of the enemy's army in a battle. When they returned, people from each clan sent various gifts and more than ten beauties, saying they were presented to His Majesty."

Damn it!

Shen An couldn't help being furious, thinking that he had just rejected those beauties. The people had sworn that they would not use them to corrupt the officials of the Song Dynasty, but they actually went behind his back and donated them to Zhao Zhen through the ancestors.

He glanced at Zhao Zhen and felt that if a few more beauties came, the official would probably not survive more than two years.

So he coughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, my face was blown open over there."

Boss, those beauties are the standard for Fan people. If you really think they are beauties, you will definitely regret it.

There was a glint in Zhao Zhen's eyes, and then he said majestically: "These trivial matters... beauties are not beneficial to national affairs, so go back."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The prime ministers and ministers bowed their heads in praise. Shen An felt that Zhao Zhen meant it, but was afraid of welcoming a group of swarthy girls, so he endured it.

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, then looked at Shen An: "Are you rushing into the formation?"

"yes."

Shen An said honestly: "At that moment, I didn't think about anything, I just wanted to kill the enemy and serve the country."

Not everyone has the courage to rush into battle, so it is extremely precious.

Zhao Zhen nodded in approval and said: "The courage is commendable, but it is a bit reckless."

With concern in his words, Shen An said: "Your Majesty, the sergeants in the army are only one or two years older than me, but they have long been fighting on the battlefield to serve me, the Song Dynasty. Why can they do this? cannot?"

Don't deprive me of the opportunity to go into battle in the future!

Shen An really fell in love with that kind of world of iron and blood.

There, intrigues will be put aside, and what you can trust is the sword and gun in your hands, and the color of your robe.

The horses were galloping, and the people who were alive one moment were turned into flesh and blood by the shouts, and in the end only corpses were left on the ground.

There was more fanaticism in his eyes, and Zhao Zhen looked at Han Qi when he saw it.

Han Qi coughed dryly and said: "Your Majesty, this is murder... This is what you look like after killing someone."

He once saw the sergeant who killed someone for the first time. He looked even worse than Shen An now, like a walking corpse.

He took a closer look at Shen An and felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed not afraid, but excited, so he asked, "How many people were killed?"

Shen An stretched out five fingers.

hiss……

There was a burst of exclamation in the hall.

Fu Bi was surprised and said: "Did you really kill someone?"

Zhao Zhen also said in disbelief: "You...why, no, how did you kill people?"

Don't blame them for being curious and shocked.

It is the duty of a warrior to go into battle to kill the enemy, but civilian officials go to the battle in person and then follow them to surprise the enemy...

You are not a civil official, but a military general!

and……

"Killed five people?"

Zhao Zhen felt that this Shen An was a bit strange.

This is not a boy who follows the rules. It feels like he never follows those rules. From the moment he tried his best to encourage the victims to resettle on the spot, from the moment he shouted "Look up the river and look north"... this kid was not a follower of the rules.

Now he has also learned to kill.

Who would kill someone in court?

Zhao Zhen looked at the prime ministers and assistants, and sadly found that they were all a group of gentle gentlemen.

Just lower your eyebrows and look down on Shen An...

"Your Majesty, this...then if you don't kill someone, people will kill you!"

Shen An felt that it was necessary to spread some battlefield knowledge to these monarchs and ministers.

"Your Majesty, when Zhe Jizu led his troops into battle, he was surrounded by enemy troops. Those soldiers who were left alone did not plead. Their courage..."

Shen An's eyes couldn't help but heat up as he thought of those miserable howls and courage.

"Those brothers did not kneel down and beg for mercy even when they died. When I saw those soldiers who died in battle, most of them threw themselves at the enemy before they died, just asking for one of them to die together... Your Majesty, those are the backbone of our Song Dynasty. If not Their bravery was not afraid of death. Without their generosity in dying, there would be no peace in the Song Dynasty."

Shen An said sincerely: "Your Majesty, what I can tell you is that there is never any poetry or painting on the battlefield. Some are just iron and blood, and some are just killing or being killed. This is not a pear garden, but a battle between countries. A slaughterhouse competing for profits..."

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but nodded and said: "Profits! Those rebellious people in the northwest always want to cut a piece of flesh from the Song Dynasty, but I won't agree... I..."

He said excitedly: "Some people want to give up Linfu Road, Fu Qing, what do you say?"

Facing an emotional emperor, Fu Bi could only say tactfully: "Your Majesty, Linfu Road guards the front line of the Yellow River and is the forerunner of Hedong Road. If it is cancelled, Hedong Road will directly face the enemy and there will be no room left... The war could start again at any time."

As prime minister, Fu Bi's vision is qualified.

Han Qi nodded. He had already stated his position and was unwilling to say anything more now, otherwise it would sound like he was compromising with Shen An.

Zhao Zhen said happily: "Those people are making a fuss about the excessive cost of Linfu Road, but they don't know the key behind it. They are short-sighted!"

Boom!

Shen An seemed to hear the roar of cannons.

Zhao Zhen's map cannon can be said to have spread thousands of miles and spread far and wide.

Shen An thought this ending was good and was about to resign when Zhao Zhen asked, "How is Fuzhou?"

This question was very vague, but even Fu Bi was staring at him.

They don't want a vague answer...

Shen An said: "The Zhe family in Fuzhou are loyal. I can guarantee that the Zhe family will still be a lone wolf in the northwest of the Song Dynasty in the future."

The loyalty of the Zhe family was unquestionable. Even when no Song flag could be seen in the entire north, the Zhe family still sent people to the south to pay allegiance to the Song Dynasty.

It's a pity that Zhao Gou and the small court were like bereaved dogs. They were in panic all day long. In the end, Zhe Keqiu's southward visit to the king's master came to nothing...

Guaranteed?

Fu Bi glanced at Shen An and felt that this young man still lacked calculation and government.

The price of this kind of guarantee is quite high. Even a hundred years later, if there is a problem with the Zhe family, such as rebellion or something, Shen An's name will be mentioned constantly, like a corpse being whipped. And his descendants will also be implicated.

Youthful spirit!

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, appreciating this kind of impulsiveness.

No, I feel more at ease.

This is what a young man looks like!

If Shen An pretends to be a serious person, it will probably arouse all kinds of suspicions. Therefore, it is most appropriate to be more wanton and more impulsive.

Shen An seemed not to know this, and still said: "The soldiers and civilians of Fuzhou are loyal to the Song Dynasty. Before I came, the soldiers and civilians asked me to go back to Beijing to ask Your Majesty and your gentlemen when the soldiers and people of Fuzhou can cross the river."

Crossing the Yellow River is Hedong Road, which is considered the mainland of the Song Dynasty and is safe.

This indirectly proves the loyalty of Fuzhou. Zhao Zhen said: "They have worked hard. I will ask Hedong to send more money and food to them so that they can live better this winter."

He never mentioned crossing the river, and Shen An didn't ask any more questions. The emperor and his ministers completed the debriefing in a tacit understanding.

Shen An resigned and was going to pick up his sister from Bao Zheng's house.

"etc."

Zhao Zhen suddenly stopped him and said thoughtfully: "The Prince of Runan County is dying, please go and take a look."

What?

Shen An was startled, then resigned.

Zhao Yunrang is actually dying?

The monarch and his ministers then dispersed, and Zhao Zhen went to the queen.

Empress Cao was busy asking people to get hot tea, and then asked people to massage and beat Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen was sitting on an armchair with his eyes closed, enjoying the massage from the palace maid.

This massage was not the kind he would get in the future, and that kind of massage could not relieve Zhao Zhen's physical fatigue.

The one who massaged him was a stout palace maid with a very 'pleasant' appearance. Every time she finished the massage, Zhao Zhen would always choose to sleep alone that day.

Zhao Zhen felt extremely comfortable when held by those strong hands. He couldn't help but hum a few times, and then felt a little embarrassed, so he said, "You sent someone to the county prince's palace earlier. What will you say when you come back?"

Zhao Yunrang is the elder of the clan and was once Zhao Zhen's backup, so of course Zhao Zhen had to show concern.

Empress Cao sat on the edge and looked out with a faint look, "It doesn't matter that she refuses to eat, even if the doctor comes here. I only drink a little soup every day. If I continue like this, within a few days... I'm afraid... …”

Zhao Yunrang is dying?

Zhao Zhen sighed, and then said: "Let Zhang come here for eight years."

Later, when Zhang arrived, Empress Cao looked at his grimace with disgust, turned away and said, "The officials would like to ask about Prince Runan's condition."

Zhang Baibian didn't care about the queen's attitude at all. He said coldly: "Prince Runan has no symptoms, he just doesn't eat."

Zhao Zhen opened his eyes, looked into the void and asked, "Why?"

Zhang Baba shook his head and said: "I don't know, but I think it was intentional, just wanting to commit suicide."

The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth turned up slightly, and then there was more disdain in his eyes: "He thought I would be jealous of him? He thought I would reject Thirteenth Lang as a candidate for the palace because of this? He misjudged me!"

Queen Cao was shocked and said, "Why would he be like this?"

Zhao Zhen's eyes at this moment were cold and merciless.

He glanced at Queen Cao and said: "If I choose Thirteenth Prince, Zhao Yunrang will be a bit of an eyesore. If I go, he will be an eyesore even more... Have you ever seen an emperor ascend the throne, but your father is the king of the county? Hmm? ?!”

Queen Cao felt an explosion in her head, and her scalp couldn't help but feel numb.

She held her hands together and said with some sadness: "Guan, you will definitely live a long life."

Those who say long live are flatterers, but those who listen are fools.

Zhao Zhen is not a fool, so he is very sad about this blessing: "I'm afraid I won't live to be a hundred...can I live to be sixty-five? Or seventy, I will be satisfied at seventy."

Empress Cao quickly comforted her with a few words and then changed the topic.

"Guan family, will Shen An gain anything from his trip to Fuzhou?"

For Shen An, a young man who once brought shame to the Cao family, UU Reading www.uukanshu. NETEmpress Cao went from angry to calm to curious... just like this.

Zhao Zhen said calmly: "Zhe Jizu couldn't control him, so he led the Mangshan army to charge... and killed five people."

"He actually killed someone?"

Queen Cao was surprised at first, and then envious.

She also wanted to go into battle and kill the enemy, instead of managing a group of warblers in the palace.

Zhao Zhen glanced at her and said with black lines on his head: "That's a battlefield! That young man was eager to try before he went there, and Zhe Jizu also indulged him, so... he forgot that he had made military exploits, which was not a small feat. , I am having a headache about his reward."
