Su Jin bowed his hand again and again and said: "Your lords, you are angry, the lower officials have no other meaning, they just laughed, why bother to make a big fuss." The saint is here, how dare the lower officials ridicule and laugh, you will be mistaken. ”

Su Jin specifically mentioned Zhao Zhen, just to remind the few who reprimanded him, and not to be too presumptuous, it is not for them to have the final say here.

Zhao Zhen didn't get angry, but felt very interested in his heart, originally after the discussion was the court discussion, and then he would call Su Jin forward to discuss the gains and losses of the grain affairs and the big case of the officials, but this kid couldn't bear the loneliness, and actually jumped out, which is strange.

"Su Jin, you step forward and reply." Zhao Zhen said lightly, his face was calm, and he couldn't see likes and sorrows.

Su Jin hurriedly stepped forward and was about to kneel down to salute, when Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, what is the reason why you misbehaved in the court and sneered?" ”

Su Jin hurriedly said: "Playing the emperor, Weichen just smiled, but he didn't sneer. ”

Zhao Zhen shouted: "Are you a fool when everyone here?" Can't you tell the difference between normal laughter and shameful laughter? ”

Su Jin hurriedly said: "I just don't agree with the statements of several adults, so this laugh is at most a sneer, how can it be said to be a shameful laugh." ”

Du Yan shouted: "You dare to have any objections to the words of Lu Xiang and Yan Sansi? It's funny. ”

Su Jin raised his head and said: "What this said is so unreasonable, although Su Jin is soft-spoken, but he can't even have an opinion on things, is Du Shumi going to deprive others of the right to think?" ”

Du Yan was speechless for a while, and pointed at Su Jin and said: "The teeth are sharp, what kind of system has it become." ”

Su Jin smiled and said: "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and the common people are still worried about national affairs, why can't I have an opinion on this matter?" It's one thing to have a right opinion, it's another thing to have an opinion, everyone has the responsibility to guide the society, why does Du Shumi think it can't? ”

Du Yan said angrily: "What words, it's just a big rebellion!" Everyone has the responsibility to guide the country, so doesn't that mean that everyone can slander the government? ”

Su Jin arched his hand and said: "Du Shumi doesn't need to buckle the hat for the lower officials, in this court, doesn't everyone have this responsibility?" Otherwise, all the affairs of the emperor are arbitrary, so why bother to discuss politics and ask everyone's opinions? Everyone is waiting for the holy decree to be followed, so why bother to get up early in the morning and blow a cold wind on this hall. ”

Du Yanqi's face was black and purple, and he shouted: "Su Jin, you are simply ...... It's ...... Unreasonable. ”

Yan Shu was very happy in his heart, Su Jin turned Du Yan around with a few casual words, but he couldn't find the words to refute it, he only knew that he was angry indiscriminately, and his clumsiness and stupidity were exposed, and he stepped forward and said: "Du Shumi, why bother to be like him, don't you lose your identity." ”

Du Yan glared at Yan Shu and said, "It's not that you recommended this person, it's not up or down, it's rude, it's unreasonable." ”

Yan Shu sneered at each other: "Du Shumi can't say this, Envoy Su is the emperor's special envoy for grain affairs, don't blame the old man for not reminding you of this." ”

Du Yan was startled, quickly shut up, and stood aside angrily and sulked.

Zhao Zhen's heart blossomed, listening to the quarrels of the people below, Zhao Zhen not only did not get angry, but was not in a hurry at all, just like when he first ascended the throne, the old queen mother taught herself, the way of the emperor is not only to control people with morality, but also to exercise the art of power and strategy, when the emperor can not expect the courtiers to work together to be obedient like a puppet, on the contrary, the appropriate fight can show the authority of the imperial power; The emperor is like a weight, which side of the courtiers is out of balance, they need to balance it, as long as they don't make people angry, the more they fight, the more stable their imperial power will be.

"What are you doing, two adults? Are we still talking about politics or not? Lu Yijian was a little annoyed, he couldn't participate openly, seeing that Du Yan was clumsy and suffered a loss, he naturally had to come forward to play fifty boards each to show his majesty.

Yan Shu didn't think of the head-on conflict, and Shi Li said: "The old man is rude, Du Shumi doesn't take it to heart." After that, he looked at Su Jin and asked him to return to his position, and he also returned to the train.

Su Jin twisted his ass and retreated, but heard Zhao Zhen's voice sound: "Su Jin is slow." ”

Su Jin secretly called unlucky, so he had to turn around.

"Just now, you said that you have some opinions on the border of the Liao Army, you talk about it, I want to hear what you think."

Lu Yijian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, how can such a major national event be consulted by him, Su Jin is not a member of the imperial examination, and he has not yet had an official status in terms of identity, if he is in the court, wouldn't it be a joke to spread it." ”

Su Jinxin said: This old thing looks down on people, isn't it a human being if he doesn't have an official body? It's definitely better than the uninformed people who have official status?

However, he was annoyed, and he really didn't want to make trouble, so he followed Lu Yijian's words and said: "Yes, Weichen has a short vision, and his ideas must be immature, so don't make people laugh, this kind of national affairs is not something that Weichen can discuss, the emperor should spare Weichen." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly: "Lu Aiqing, but what's the harm in listening?" If there is something desirable, take it, and if there is no merit, it should be the wind next to your ears, so why not listen to it and then think about it. ”

Lu Yijian rolled his eyes, knowing that if he was arguing, he would not be able to tolerate people, so he said: "Since there is such a Yaxing in the saint, then it is better to listen to it; However, if Su Jin talks nonsense, the minister will stop drinking. ”

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I know, I know, Lu Aiqing is Zaifu, and he is in his position, so he naturally has this right." ”

Lu Yijian felt useful, and immediately went back to the brocade stool and sat down, intending to listen to what Su Jin was going to say word for word, once there was a disagreement, he would immediately stop this person, and he would never be allowed to talk nonsense.

"Su Jin, say it." Zhao Zhen smiled.

"Do you really want to say it?" Su Jin hesitated.

"If you say you, just say, what do you want to resist?" Pang Ji couldn't help but shout.

"Huge people, why do you always button your hat and scare people, this is a bit unauthentic." Ouyang Xiu stepped forward to help Su Jin speak.

Pang Ji stepped forward with a glare, and seeing that another war of words was about to break out, Zhao Zhen said unhappily: "Everyone, Aiqing go back to the train, I am asking Su Jin, don't you have to say anything." ”

Ouyang Xiu and Pang Ji had no choice but to stare at each other and return to their original positions.

Su Jinxin said: Ouyang Xiu is also angry, at this time, he shows that he supports me, and it seems that he still has the meaning of making friends.

Su Jin cleared his throat and bowed respectfully: "Since the emperor inquired, Weichen can only say what he thinks in his heart, if what he says is wrong, or there is a fallacy, please ask the emperor to forgive his sins, just let a gust of wind blow, don't take it to heart." ”

Zhao Zhen snorted and did not speak.

Su Jin said: "What Du Shumi and Deputy Envoy Chen said just now, Wechen can hear it clearly, Yan Sansi and Lu Xiang said that the Liao State troops are not for attacking our Great Song Dynasty, this conclusion, Wechen thought it was premature......"

The ministers were in an uproar, and some people shook their heads and discussed softly: "What a big breath, it is not that he indiscriminately accuses Lu Xiang and Yan Sansi, this kid is crazy." ”

Lu Yijian didn't speak, but his face was cold, of course he couldn't respond, responding to this kid, wouldn't it be too much to give him face; Yan Shu was even more calm, he knew Su Jin's way of speaking, if he was the same everywhere, it would not be Su Jin; On the contrary, Yan Shu was very much looking forward to the reason why Su Jin said this.

Also looking forward to Zhao Zhen, I haven't seen such a bold courtier appear in front of him for a long time, Zhao Zhen feels very novel.

Without waiting for Zhao Zhen to open his mouth to ask, Su Jin had already said to himself: "Weichen didn't say that the analysis of Lu Xiang and Yan Sansi was wrong, on the contrary, the analysis of the two adults was very reasonable; Song and Liao became a brother country as early as the alliance of Lanzhou, my great Song Dynasty is a brother, Liao is a brother, the two countries have been friends for nearly 40 years, and there is nothing to do with each other; The border also opened a number of fields, the two countries have mutual benefits in business and trade, I gave 100,000 taels of silver in the year of the Great Song Dynasty, 200,000 horses of silk and Liao, showing the friendship of brothers; If the Liao people have a little favor, they will not brazenly use troops against our Great Song Dynasty, so Weichen said that Lu Xiang and Yan Sansi analyzed it very much. ”

Zhao Zhen frowned and said, "In this case, why do you say amazing words?" What you said, Lu Aiqing and Yan Aiqing have already made it very clear, and I also know this truth. ”

There were bursts of discussion among the officials, and they all said: "This kid picks up people's teeth and wisdom, how can he have any insight, it's just a waste of time." ”

"The emperor is benevolent, and he actually allows this person to talk about it here, and he can't talk about anything new."

“……”

Su Jin smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, although Weichen agrees with the analysis of the two adults, he wants to add two words to the conclusion of the two adults. ”

Zhao Zhen said: "What word? ”

"It's the word 'temporary.'"

"Are you saying that the Liao people will not attack my Great Song Dynasty for the time being?"

Su Jindao: "Exactly, although the Liao people are influenced by the etiquette of my Great Song Dynasty and also speak some truths, everyone here should understand that the barbarian clan is not enough to believe it, the Liao people are the Khitan wolf clan, and the wolf's ambition has never been eliminated. Since the Liao people are stationing troops on the border, is it possible that they just put soldiers and horses on the border to consume grain and grass in vain? How strange is this matter? ”

There was silence in the court, and the officials thought about Su Jin's words and felt that there was some truth.

"And what do you mean by that for the time being? Could it be that under the impetus of some kind of opportunity, the Liao people will launch it? Zhao Zhen keenly grasped the key point in Su Jin's words and asked quietly.

Su Jin nodded and said: "The saint is wise, Weichen thinks that this matter cannot be looked at in isolation, and only when you look at the overall situation can you have a proper conclusion." ”

Yan Shu said in a deep voice: "Su envoy don't want to say half and leave half, although he can say everything in his heart, don't wait for the emperor to ask." ”

Su Jin bowed and said, "Yes, yes." He turned to Zhao Zhen and bowed his head and said: "At present, there are four things happening at the same time, and Weichen is listed by the saints one by one, the first is the rebellion of the western thieves, who invaded my northwest; The second thing is that my Great Song Dynasty encountered a great famine that I had not encountered in ten years; The third is that the Liao people suddenly stationed troops at the border; The fourth is that the Liao envoy is coming; These four things may seem unrelated, but if we analyze them carefully, we will find that there are subtleties and inextricable connections. ”

Everyone was thinking about what was inextricably linked between the four major events that Su Jin said, and Zhao Zhen also lowered his eyes and pondered the key to it, and the hall was quiet, filled with the snoring and wheezing sound of the old officials.
