When they arrived at Dongsimen, the prince was already waiting, and a luxurious carriage stopped there.

Zong Shu was riding in just a donkey cart. Zong Shen led the donkey.

Because of the lack of horses in the Great Song Dynasty, only officials above the second rank could use horses. Everything else can only be done with donkeys.

Zong Shu sat on the donkey cart and walked in front, because he was in charge of finding the coal.

"Zong Shu, where are we going to find the coal?" Yingluo lifted the curtain and asked.

"Just follow me." Not long after leaving the city, sitting in the donkey cart, Zong Shu shivered for a while, it was really too cold.

"Zong Shu, you come to the carriage. Go faster this way. Zhao Huan shouted.

Zong Shu was not polite at all, and immediately got into Zhao Huan's carriage, and Yingluo and her cousin Zhuzhu were already inside.

After all, it was the crown prince, and the carriage was really spacious, and there was a brazier in the middle.

The prince, Yingluo and Zhuzhu surrounded the brazier, and Zong Shu pulled the Yingluo, "Please let go of the trouble, I will also roast." ”

Zhuzhu immediately moved to the side, and Zong Shu sat down between Yingluo and Zhuzhu with a big grin, and happened to be face to face with the prince.

What is the identity of this guy, shouldn't he sit in the corner of the carriage? Do you want to lean in front of the brazier?

"Zong Shu, let you sit in, it's for you to tell the story." Although she was a little reluctant, she still moved to the side.

"Childe, it's a long way to go today, so it's better to continue talking." Zhuzhu spoke slowly and logically, sounding an indescribable comfort.

"What book?" The prince asked.

"You'll know if you listen to it, and you're guaranteed to be hooked." Zhu Zhu said.

"Okay, I'll talk about it directly from the third time, this time it's called: Desert Wind and Sand."

This time there is no background in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, so there is no need to worry about what kind of rebellious hat the prince will put on him, so Zong Shu let it go.

After speaking, Zhu Zhu said: "The gambling between the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan and Qiu Chuji is eighteen years!" It's been too long. ”

"Zong Shu, how long will it take to see your bet with the national teacher?" Zhao Huan asked.

"Seven days, in fact, seven days is also a lot of talk. I'm sure if you go fast, you'll see in two days. Zong Shu was very sure.

The place where Zong Shu wants to go is Mi County, only 70 kilometers away from Bianliang, and if the carriage goes fast and the road is good, it can be reached within a day.

Under the soft grinding and hard bubbles of beads and tassels, Zong Shu talked about "Black Wind and Double Evil" again.

At this moment, the prince finally listened and asked Zong Shu to continue.

"Zong Shu, why do I listen, you hate the Jin people so much? The father said that we are in alliance with the Jin people, and shouldn't the Liao people be hated the most? Moreover, the Liao people took our Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures. The prince asked.

The crown prince, like most people, is not vigilant enough against the Jin people.

The Liao people took the sixteen states of Yanyun, while the Jin people were even more ruthless later, taking the north of the Yangtze River.

Yingluo heard the prince interrupt the story, and hurriedly said: "Big brother, you should be in the tile." By the way, Zong Shu also said that within two months, the Zhongjing and Xijing of the Liao State will be captured by the Jin State. Do you believe it or not? ”

Zhao Huan shook his head and said, "I don't believe it." ”

After so many years of confrontation between Song and Liao, Zhao Huan must have understood the combat power of the Liao army.

However, the victory or defeat of a war is often not the decisive factor in combat effectiveness.

Yingluo and Zhuzhu kept pestering Zong Shu to continue speaking, and Zong Shu said: "I told you all, what will I do when I go to the academy in the future?" ”

Yingluo thought for a while and said, "It's easy to do, you just need to print out "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". ”

That's a good idea. The printing industry in the Northern Song Dynasty was very developed. If you publish this, you will not only make money, but also make it visible to most people.

"Yingluo, let me tell you, you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are in charge of publishing. Profit sharing, how about five or five open? Zong Shu immediately threw out a bait.

Didn't you Cai Xiu say that I was plotting rebellion when I talked about books, then I would pull the prince and princess into the water.

Yingluo and the prince also often go to the tile to listen to books, but they have never seen such a wonderful speech as Zong Shu.

If you really publish this, it is certain to make money.

didn't wait for Yingluo to speak, Zhao Huan immediately agreed. Zong Shu is so happy in his heart!

Fortunately, Zhao Huan hadn't heard of the first two times, and if he did, he wouldn't agree 100%.

Haha, it's so easy to pull the prince into the water.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you have to count when you speak. That's it, I'll tell you more about it today. ”

Seeing Zong Shu's treacherous look, Yingluo glanced at Zong Shu, while Zhuzhu bowed his head and was silent.

It's really a classmate, he didn't expose him!

It seems that Yingluo has something to do with himself? Zong Shu couldn't help but think a little wrong.

……

Wende Hall. Huizong was reviewing the chapter and talking to Tong Guan.

"Has Mr. Yuan Miao left?" Huizong asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, Mr. Yuan Miao hasn't left yet. It's the crown prince, and Zong Shu have already set off, and it's not clear where they are. Tong Guan replied with a bent over.

Huizong put down his pen, rubbed it and said, "Mr. Yuan Miao, as a national teacher, won't lose again this time, right?" ”

Tong Guan secretly glanced at Huizong: "Your Majesty, the little one thinks that the national teacher must find Shi Tan first." That kid from the Zong family is just playing tricks. It's just that the little one doesn't understand, how can the prince not see such an obvious trap for the son of the Zong family? ”

Tong Guan has always supported the Nine Emperor Princes, Zhao Gou, and whenever he had the opportunity, he gave the crown prince eye medicine in front of Huizong.

Sure enough, a trace of displeasure flashed in Huizong's eyes.

"If the prince can't find the coal, Kaifeng Mansion Yin won't either." Huizong said.

……

In a deep house compound in Bianliang, there is still a light on in the study.

Cai Jing took the notebook written by Cai Xiu and read it from beginning to end.

"Grandpa, how about it, can you pass it to the official family through Taiwan and the officials? Zong Shu, this guy deserves to be punished. Cai Xiu said.

"Confused! No matter who hands it over, who doesn't know that the back is our Cai family? Now the official family doesn't care about trivial matters at all, a small Zongshu, if you want soldiers or no soldiers, if you want people to have no people, even if you are a rebellion, what's the use? ”

Seeing that Cai Xiu bowed his head and was silent, Cai Jing said: "Your father is an official outside, and I can't take care of you." You have to grow up on your own, don't fight with the clan kid all day long. ”

"We have to care about what the officials care about! Do you know the Prince? What about the Three Princes? If the prince doesn't find the charcoal this time, what will happen to the prince? Have you ever thought about it? ”

Cai Jing taught Cai Xiu bitterly.

"In the future, you have to get closer to the third prince Zhao Kai."

Cai Jing and Tong Guan are at peace on the surface, but in fact, they look down on each other, Cai Jing laughs at Tong Guan for being a eunuch, and Tong Guan laughs at Cai Jing for having no military merits, so he is also secretly competing in the selection of the prince.

The crown prince Zhao Huan only became the prince because he was the eldest son.

happened to Zhao Kai to come to the door, and Cai Jing gladly accepted it as a strong supporter of Zhao Kai.

Since Cai Jing supported Zhao Kai, Tong Guan chose Zhao Gou, the Nine Emperor Princes.

"Prince, I don't know how to make a mistake this time. We must seize this opportunity. Cai Jing said.
