Chapter 194: Northwest Wolf
"Look a fart!"
Shen An scolded: "You have been working hard all day long, and your archery skills are even better, if you have such skills, you should share the worries of the official family, and if you are young, you want to be lazy, this is not good." ”
Chen Zhongheng's face was trembling, and the thickness of Shen An's skin was obviously beyond his expectations.
"I can only talk about whether it can be guaranteed or not."
After he left, Zhi Kexing looked at Shen An and suddenly knelt down.
"Brother Anbei!"
This is a brother-in-law, and it is not an exaggeration.
"Get up!"
Shen An frowned and said, "If you can't afford it, get out." ”
Zhi Kexing got up, tears in his eyes.
He came to Bianliang alone, as the current outcast of the family, his task is to stay here as a hostage until one day he returns to the northwest and Fuzhou, and may not be able to go back for the rest of his life.
So he was a little frustrated, until he met Shen An.
It was just an assigned protection task, and since then Shen An has regarded him as a brother, opened the Shen family to receive him, and helped him and the folded family to solve difficulties several times.
Today, Shen An even exchanged his merits for the opportunity to participate in the competition, and he couldn't repay this great favor, so he was grateful.
Shen An looked at him and said with a smile: "The fold in my heart is a hero who sheds blood without tears, martial arts can overcome thousands of troops, and leading the army can attack the city and destroy the country, and make a good living." ”
This would remain silent until many years later, when he was at war with Western Xia, when he got a chance, and he was still on an errand to protect the grain road.
But it was from such a seemingly useless errand that he was invincible.
In the Song Dynasty, the Zhe family was always full of pathos, from the time when Zhe Yuqing went out to fight with illness, died in the army, and finally fell alone in the northwest......
And the DPRK has never trusted the Zhi family from the beginning, and the Linfu Road Soldiers and Horses Division existed to monitor the Zhi family, and there were many guards around, so they were worried that the Zhi family would turn their faces and rebel.
In a word, there was a Song dynasty, and the Zhe family had always been loyal, until the entire north could no longer see a Song flag, and they were still fighting alone.
In the end, Zhe Keqiu ran out of ammunition and food, and his son Zhe Yanwen was captured, and the Jin people surrendered with this, and Zhe Ke begged Kaecheng to surrender.
"Be firm."
Shen An patted him on the shoulder, he hoped that Zhi Kexing would become the head of the Zhi family in the future, and he hoped that the Great Song Dynasty would change its defensive posture in the north and take the initiative to attack one day in the future.
I gave you this opportunity, seize it!
is famous at the moment, when I want to arrange you in the future, others dare to suppress it, and Lao Tzu dares to ask, 'Grass and mud horses!' Are you better than the Liao? ’
……
In the lobby of the Privy Council, Song Zhen looked at the quarrel below anxiously and sighed helplessly.
"Don't you have archers under your command? Call two out to try and try. ”
"Fart, last time you said that your archery skills were unparalleled in the world, don't you want to go?"
"So-and-so's hand hurts."
“……”
After Zhao Zhen instructed to carefully select tomorrow's contestants, it turned out that the generals who fought bravely to be the first and broke their heads for the place of accompanying shooting were dumbfounded.
Song Zhen knew why.
The official family attaches great importance to it, and most of the losses will have serious consequences.
It has been peaceful for a long time, and the bravery and decisiveness of the generals are gradually corroded.
The big guys of the three yas are all here, and they are foaming at the moment pushing this qualification.
Even Gu Zuoxian, who was about to make a mistake, didn't dare to take the risk of stealing the credit, but just shook his head.
Ay!
Seeing that a fight was about to break out below, there was a person outside.
"Xianggong, there is an order in the palace."
"Ahem!"
The three chiefs all tidied up their clothes and stood up solemnly, as if they were just talking nonsense between them just now.
Then a chamberlain came in, he glanced into the room, and when he saw a teacup that had fallen on the ground, he looked up quietly, and then said, "Your Majesty has an order." ”
Everyone stood in silence.
The chamberlain said: "This time, the Liao envoy will accompany the shooting, and Zhi Kexing will be responsible. ”
The chamberlain turned to go out, and there was a relaxed exhalation in the room.
Then someone said, "Ah! I wanted to show some archery skills, but who knew that it would be replaced......"
Someone asked, "Who is that Zhekexing?" ”
Gu Zuo said: "It's the Zhe family in Fuzhou, the boy who followed Shen An." ”
Someone said angrily: "Why let a teenager go? I've been waiting for many years on the battlefield, can't I compare to him? ”
These quarrels and anger were sent to Zhao Zhen.
The hall was very warm, singing and dancing in front, and the royal family was watching.
To the left of Zhao Zhen is the queen, and the two say a few words for song and dance from time to time.
This is the decency for the queen.
Chen Zhongheng came in, and after walking to Zhao Zhen's side, he leaned down and said in a low voice: "Those generals in the Privy Council didn't dare to go, and then they said that they were going to go to Zheke, and they were all angry, saying why didn't they go." ”
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, with some anger in his eyes.
These stupid people who are so horny and inward-looking, they don't even have any responsibility, what else can they expect to do?
They regarded it as a deadly chore, but Shen An regarded it as an opportunity to serve the country.
Why is this man different?
He looked at the singing and dancing in front of him, but he was thinking about tomorrow's competition.
I hope that boy doesn't let me down.
……
Shen An naturally didn't want to disappoint him, so the family went to bed early that night, and all the wine was put away by Shen An, and he was not allowed to take a sip.
Early the next morning, the South Imperial Garden outside the Nanxun Gate was already crowded.
Wang Anshi also came with his son Wang Yan.
It was easy to enter the South Imperial Garden, and Wang Anshi met his acquaintance Han Qi.
After the two sides met, Han Qi praised Wang Yan a few words, and then said: "I'm afraid today's things are difficult to be good, don't be surprised." ”
Is this optimistic about the companion shooting on Da Song's side?
The so-called competition is that the Liao envoy first fires crossbow arrows, and then the companion shot from the Great Song Dynasty is archery.
A crossbow, a bow and arrows.
Wang Anshi frowned and said, "Great Song, can't you find a marksman?" ”
Han Qi sighed: "In order to reward Shen An, the official family asked him to recommend a companion, and he recommended a teenager. ”
"Isn't this nonsense!"
Wang Anshi said: "This is a major event between the two countries, winning or losing is not child's play, if the Great Song Dynasty loses, the morale of the people will be stagnant, how can the official family be such a child's play!" ”
This is also a strong order, and he can't be stubborn, so he dares to accuse the official.
And he has been writing articles recently, very long articles, so he has been pondering the inside and outside of the Great Song Dynasty for a long time, only to know that this competition seems to be child's play, but the impact is not small.
"Shen An is here!"
After a call, several people turned around and saw Shen An holding a girl, and next to him was a young man dressed as a guard.
The young man had a bow and arrow hanging from his waist, a little behind Shen An, very respectful, but there was more eagerness between his eyebrows.
Wang Anshi walked over and said, "Shen waits for the edict ......"
Shen An stopped and said hello.
Wang Anshi said bluntly: "This competition is not child's play, but you recommend this person but you are not stable, you can quickly change people." ”
Shen An was stunned and said, "Why do you want to change people?" ”
Wang Anshi saw that he was still 'pretending to be stupid', so he said angrily: "This matter is not child's play......
Shen An interrupted him and said, "Shen has never taken this matter as a child's play, and the prince thinks too much. ”
He reached out and patted Zhe Kexing's shoulder and said, "Peace of mind." ”
Previously, Chen Zhongheng sent a message, saying that a good show in the Privy Council yesterday was full of ugliness from pushing each other to blaming each other angrily.
It's all a bunch of cowards!
Shen An felt that this opportunity was given by God, so he took it with peace of mind.
Wang Anshi was left behind, and Wang Yan said dissatisfiedly: "Daddy, does he dare to despise you even as a young man?" And the young man beside him looked trembling, it can be seen that there is no city, and he is afraid that he will lose later. ”
Wang Anshi shook his head slightly and said, "It seems that this is going to lose." That's it, for my father, I went to ask the official family, and I must change to a marksman today. ”
The father and son went to look for the emperor, but Zhi Kexing stopped trembling.
"Brother Anbei, the younger brother almost wanted to chop him off with a knife."
The reason why he was trembling just now was that he was angry and wanted to kill.
"Be less temperamental, and start preparing."
Shen An thought it was very funny, Zhe Kexing actually wanted to kill Wang Anshi, if this idea was a few years later, it would be a joke.
The Liao envoy was in front of him, with more than a dozen companions by his side.
"That's the Song people's accompaniment?"
Only Zhi Kexing was present with a bow and arrow, so it was easy to recognize.
Someone among the Liao people sneered, and then said: "It turned out to be a young man, it can be seen that there is no one in the Southern Dynasty." ”
The so-called Southern Dynasty refers to the Great Song Dynasty, and most of the Liao people are called it like this.
The Liao envoy remembered yesterday's fiasco, so he said to a Liao person: "Today is going to aim, let the Song people lose face." ”
The Liao man was fiddling with the crossbow, and when he heard this, he raised his head and said, "Okay." ”
This man's face was grim, and he had only said one good word so far, which showed that he was silent.
This is the best warrior among the Liao, and at the same time the best crossbow archer.
"The official family is here."
A group of cavalry came slowly, escorting a horseman, but it was Zhao Zhen.
After some etiquette, Zhao Zhen sat on a high place, surrounded by tall sergeants.
Bows and arrows have no eyes, and if anyone is plotting against them, then these sergeants are ready-made meat shields.
Zhao Zhen saw Shen An and Zhi Kexing, he sighed slightly, and said, "Get ready." ”
Shen An said that the archery skills of Zheke are unparalleled, but who has seen it?
It was the last time he was in the palace, he manipulated the bow and crossbow invented by Shen An. But a bow and a crossbow are not bows and arrows.
The Liao envoys used bows and crossbows, while the companions on the Song side had to use bows and arrows.
Shen An's Guarantee ......
"It's not me bragging, the archery skills of Zundao were not very good before, and then he went to Bianliang, studied under Yu Shen, practiced diligently every day, and now it is a great achievement."
Shen An glanced at the arrow target and said, "Just this point, I am sure that I can shoot one arrow at a time." ”
A group of envoys didn't dare to stand with the Liao envoy, so they stood by Shen An's side and listened to him blow the conch.
"If Shen goes up in person, he will definitely not look at it, and he will definitely be hit."
This thing can really brag about it!
The envoys of several countries were disdainful in their hearts, and then looked at Zhi Kexing carefully.
Hey!
Why did this boy look trembling?
Wang Anshi was slowly coming, and Zhi Kexing's eyes were following him.
Zhi Kexing felt that Wang Anshi's questioning was deliberate, and he must have wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Shen An, so he had murderous intent.
Shen An knew the baby's ability, so he hurriedly went over and whispered: "Wang Jiefu's temperament is like this, and it is also like this to the official family." ”
If he didn't explain it clearly, Shen An was worried that this baby would drink more alcohol one day, so he touched into Wang's house and chopped Wang Anshi with a knife.
Zhi Kexing looked at him and said, "Brother Anbei, the life of the junior brother is yours." ”
The soldier dies for his confidant, and the words of the fold show that he is already burning.
Brother, you treat me like this, and the younger brother has nothing to say when he goes to the soup. Don't say it's Wang Anshi, if Fu Bi offends you, the younger brother will even dare to kill him.
The wind of the northwest has forged the character of the Fold family almost like a wolf, and when the blood is rushing, anyone can be killed!
