Chapter 534: Advice to Panic the Monarch
The monarch and the ministers were happy, and the messenger was talking and stopping on the side, looking constipated.
“…… I thought that when I asked Shen An to go to Xiongzhou, he would be newly married, but after a word of responsibility, he set off. I feel indebted to him now when I think about it......"
Han Qi felt that he couldn't let the official family sigh any longer, so he said, "Yes! But the Courier looks like he has something to say......"
Official, can we get down to business first?
The messenger finally had a chance to speak, he squeezed out some anger, and said: "Shen Zhizhao has investigated the field, and the officials from Li Tiantian and below are suspected of smuggling Liao people......
Zhao Zhen wants to hit someone!
Is it easy for me to be happy once?
I was finally happy today, and I was still excited, but I got this bad news, and I was so angry!
This is poking Zhao Zhen's lung tubes!
The messenger knew that this would be the case, so he lowered his voice, "After an inventory of all places, more than 300,000 pieces of property were found......
"Ahem!"
Ouyang Xiu suddenly coughed a few times and said, "Bao Zheng complained about the lack of money everywhere yesterday, which is good news. ”
Zhao Zhen stared at him with some anger in his eyes.
But this is Ouyang Xiu, he is old, he can't scold.
And it's also true.
Bao Zheng often complained during this time, saying that the expenses everywhere were too great, and he, the third envoy, was like a debtor, and he was complaining about him everywhere.
It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice!
"That...... Not good. ”
Zhao Zhen felt a little aggrieved, and the corrupt property could actually fill the hole in the third division, would it still have a face if it was spread out?
Lose face!
"Your Majesty, you still have to do business!"
Ouyang Xiu remembered something and said: "Smuggling over there is a common thing, the minister doesn't say much, just say that in the past fifty years, there will be two million yuan in and out, right?" Two million yuan, Your Majesty, if there is such an extra sum of money in the DPRK and China......"
Ouyang Xiu was sad and wanted to cry, looking very sad, but he secretly raised his eyes and glanced at it.
He was spying on Zhao Zhen.
His old eyes couldn't see the expression on Zhao Zhen's face clearly, and finally he had to say stupidly: "Your Majesty, you must investigate strictly!" ”
Zhao Zhen was also very sad, no, he was very angry.
The Great Song Dynasty said that it was prosperous, but he, the emperor, knew that he was poor and wanted money everywhere.
More than 300,000!
He also had no food to spare, so although he was angry, he had a little joy in his heart.
"Your Majesty, here is the recital of Shen Zhizhao."
Zhao Zhen took it and looked at it, and said, "Shen An suggested that if you want to kill a few, it is best to peel the skin and grass......"
I'll go!
There seemed to be a gust of wind blowing in the hall, which made Han Qi and the others shiver.
Peeling the grass?
What a ruthless Shen An!
"Your Majesty, this ...... It's too violent. ”
Zai Fu felt that this suggestion was too scary, and Zeng Gongliang even said: "Your Majesty, this matter must not be spread outside. ”
Ouyang Xiu said viciously: "Whoever dares to spread it, Shen An is unlucky, and he will not be better." ”
In the future, Ming Taizu's method of dealing with corrupt officials was violent at this time, and people outside would say that Shen An was the reincarnation of the executioner, and he was full of anger.
Zhao Zhen's eyes turned, and he said lightly: "If I hear rumors outside, everyone who is here today should go to Qiongzhou, and the whole family will go." ”
The chamberlains all knelt down.
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly and said, "My nephew emperor is not a lamb, but a wolf. He has been thinking about gnawing on the Great Song Dynasty, but he is afraid of breaking his teeth, so he has been enduring it, but which year has he been less tempted? ”
These words made Zaisuke sigh, and they all felt that it was really not easy to survive all these years.
"Every time something happens in the Great Song Dynasty, the first one to jump out must be the Liao people, and Qingli gives coins ......"
Han Qi shook his head, feeling that it was difficult to explain.
That time the Great Song Dynasty was worried about internal and external troubles, and the Liao people took the opportunity to exert pressure, and in the end, the Great Song Dynasty paid the price of almost doubling the annual coin, which allowed the greedy Liao people to sit and watch the battle between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia.
So don't talk about peace, it's just a whitewash.
The high-level leaders of the Song and Liao sides have a clear understanding of this, but the two sides have no intention of starting a large-scale war with each other at present, and they are just temporarily hooking up with each other.
If needed, that hand can always go to the other person's throat.
This was the situation between the Song and Liao countries.
The so-called sympathy for each other...... That's just some people's wishful thinking, just like the boast of later generations: a certain star hangs Boss Mei...... As a result, it spread out and became a joke.
There are also all sorts of boasts, and the perpetrators are those media. At this time, the media changed the situation of existence and became those literati.
So in various records, at this moment, the monarch and the wise can be called a rare prosperous era through the ages.
So this time the Liao people were deflated, and the happiest mood was still this group of monarchs and ministers.
"The ......"
Zhao Zhen was a little dizzy with excitement, he thought about it for a while, and said: "According to the time, Shen An's return will be in these days, that ...... Pity his wife who is about to get married without her husband to accompany her, so let the queen send someone to comfort her, which is also her intention. ”
Zai Fu looked at each other, and Zeng Gongliang said in a low voice: "I heard that Liu Zhan's condition has improved?" ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
Han Qi almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Zhao Zhen also got up with a strange look and said, "Let's disperse." ”
After leaving the main hall, Zeng Gongliang couldn't help but laugh.
Ouyang corrected his color and said: "If Liu Zhan hears this news, he will definitely hide at home and dare not come out." ”
Han Qi nodded and said, "That's fine." ”
Shen An has made meritorious contributions, if Liu Zhan comes out at this time, he may break his leg or something.
……
"Sister-in-law, hurry up and ......"
In summer, you can only be outdoors in the morning, especially for women who love beauty, the sun is the enemy of the skin.
Knowing that it chirped proudly in the trees, it was hard to imagine how the great energy came from its small body.
Yang Zhuoxue was holding a bamboo pole in his hand, and there was something glutinous rice at one end of the bamboo pole.
Her pretty face was slightly red, tender and delicate. Holding his breath at the moment, his eyes widened, and his hands moved slowly......
"Sticky!"
The bamboo pole stuck to one of them, and Guoguo clapped his hands and cheered.
Yang Zhuoxue put Zhizhi in the bamboo cage, reached out to wipe her forehead, and said solemnly: "Don't make a sound." ”
Guoguo immediately nodded with a straight face.
Two women, one big and one small, began to sweep the backyard until Aunt Chen came outside.
"Lady, the people in the village said that the wheat will be raised the day after tomorrow, who will collect the rent at home?"
This is a matter of formalism.
There is a steward in Shenjiazhuang, and it is Zhuang Honest who is connected with him.
Yang Zhuoxue said with a face: "Let the housekeeper go." ”
"Yes."
After Aunt Chen left, Yang Zhuoxue smiled and said, "I don't look like a lady in charge?" ”
"Like."
The two sisters-in-law laughed for a while, and the waiter came outside.
"Lady, go quickly, it's the sage's attendant here."
Yang Zhuoxue was a little nervous, but remembered her mother's teaching: A thousand words are better than a silence.
She went all the way to the front hall and heard a sharp voice: "This is the lady of the Shen family?" Shen An is in Xiongzhou, is there any difficulty at home? If so, just say, go back and ask the saint to help......"
It sounds beautiful, and it's even a little affectionate.
But although Yang Zhuoxue has not seen much of the world, her brain is not bad.
Difficulty...... The neighbors of the Shen family are Zhao Zongshi's family, who dares to come here to ask for wildfire?
These words are implying that Yang Zhuoxue will not be in charge.
If ordinary people are frightened like this, they will make a fool of themselves.
Yang Zhuoxue remembered Shen An's words before leaving: 'Your family officials have made a lot of meritorious contributions, to what extent...... You have to break people's legs to offset the credit, otherwise the official family will have a headache how to settle it......
So she looked up at the chamberlain and said, "The clumsy man has made a lot of meritorious deeds, if someone comes to make trouble, then break his legs......"
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Zhuang couldn't help coughing, blushing with laughter.
The person who came was Ren Shouzhong, and he was a little dumbfounded at the moment.
Yang Zhuoxue is a new daughter-in-law, she has never seen much of the world, so it is best to fool her.
So he also wanted to scare this woman, but he didn't expect to be counterattacked.
- Don't be shy, wait for my husband to come back and break your legs.
This is a woman's natural reaction, but Ren Shouzhong, who is squeezed, has nothing to say.
"Hahahaha!"
Someone outside was laughing, Ren Shouzhong's eyes were more cold, and there was an attendant on the side who went out to take a look, and came back and whispered: "It's Xiao Langjun next door." ”
This is not at ease, so come and listen.
Ren Shouzhong's heart sank, and he said: "The news that I just arrived, Shen An has made a contribution in Xiongzhou, and he will come back later." The sage said that you are a bride, and if there is anyone in the Shen family who disagrees, just discipline ......"
The corners of Zhuang Laoshi's mouth twitched on the side, feeling that the queen's hand was too long.
The intimidation failed, and Ren Shouzhong had no interest in staying, so after handing over the reward, he took people back.
As soon as I got out of the gate, I saw Zhao Zhongjun standing on the left.
"I've seen Xiao Langjun."
In the past, Ren Shouzhong didn't look down on Zhao Zhonglian, and he turned a blind eye when he met several times.
But now it was different, he bowed his head and saluted very respectfully.
Zhao Zongzhi did not enter the palace in order to buffer the discomfort of the two sides, but it could not be slowed down for long, and next year at the latest, there would be one more prince in the palace.
And this little Langjun is probably the future prince, and he must be respectful.
"Shen An has made meritorious contributions?"
"Yes, I killed the thieves in Xiongzhou."
"Okay."
Zhao Zhongjun happily entered the house and found Zhao Zongshi who was reading.
"Daddy, Shen An killed those thieves in Xiongzhou."
"Oh!"
With Zhao Zongshi's calmness, he was still a little surprised.
"Go and ask."
The prince asked for the battle report, and the Privy Council naturally would not refuse, and the news would come later.
"More than 100 people surrounded and killed more than 500 elites of the Liao army, none of them escaped, and they also built Beijing to view the riverside."
"Okay."
Zhao Zongshi nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "It's the embryo of a famous general." ”
This is a compliment from the future emperor, if Shen An hears it, he will probably be proud for a long time.
"Shen An also cleaned up the field, captured many officials and sergeants, and cleared out more than 300,000 pieces of property."
"More than 300,000?"
Zhao Zongshi frowned and said, "Is smuggling so rampant?" ”
Zhao Zhongjun said: "Daddy, people's hearts are insufficient! ”
"yes!"
Zhao Zong turned his words around and said: "Smuggling is stealing national wealth, and Shen An's move is very good. ”
Zhao Zhongjun probed in the side interview: "Daddy, how about the next time the child goes outside to see it?" ”
Zhao Zongshi shook his head and said, "It's difficult." ”
One word made Zhao Zhongjun frustrated.
He dreamed of going to Xiongzhou and seeing the other side of the Jiehe River. If possible, he would like to cross the boundary bridge and step on the opposite bank.
There is Youzhou over there, by the way, the Liao people renamed it Xijin Mansion.
But in Zhao Zhongding's heart, that is Youzhou.
Youzhou of the Great Song Dynasty!
