Chapter 155: See Fan Zhongyan Again

The Son once said that those who love others love them, and those who watch other people's jokes will also see his jokes.

Fan Yong, who was waiting to see Fang Zhongyong's jokes, ushered in the second low tide of his life.

Although this battle was a great victory, more than 60,000 Western Xia were killed, and more than 20,000 prisoners were collected, what does that have to do with you Fan Yong? Your pedantry and restraint almost caused a catastrophe, and you don't have to wait until the autumn to settle the account.

Don't get me wrong, Fang Zhongyong wasn't so careful, and he didn't have the leisure to give Fan Yong eye medicine. It is also not appropriate for a military chief to give eye medicine to the chief executive.

The meticulous work and secret agents planted by people from all walks of life have long reported their performances and actions. Although it is not clear that a few farts are released at night, the general situation is still grasped.

I don't know what Fan Yong thinks, Fang Zhongyong is gone, it's your turn to know Yongxingjun? If others are working hard, you will be able to lie down and be promoted?

If you're ugly, don't think about being beautiful!

Feng Fang Zhongyong's will as the founding marquis is great news in Fan Yong's view. An empty Hou Ye, what is the use of sending nothing? Let Fan Zhongyan know about the Yongxing Army, Fan Yong's Ministry of Servants, and Zhihe Zhongfu, it is a big bad news. Although it was a small promotion, Fan Yong was unhappy! With such a big credit, just mix up the official and reinstate it? Can't you put me in the political hall?

arranged for Fan Zhongyan to know the Yongxing Army, and Zhao Zhen's heart was also very upright.

The old guy cursed me for not having a son, and cursed me for not living long. If it weren't for the fact that he had no relationship with King Pu, he would have been killed as a rebel and thief.

But this old guy is really a talent, and he can mix well wherever he goes, and he has quite a political achievement. The ministers praised each other, thinking that they were great sages.

Since everyone is a great sage, it seems that it is not suitable to stay in a remote barbarian land and be a small governor. The people of Hongzhou and Yuezhou praised this statement, you are a barbarian, and your whole family is a barbarian!

Transferring Fang Zhongyong back to Beijing, although he is a marquis, it is definitely impossible to pay homage to the prime minister. It's done, it seems, it seems, it's probably a little unkind.

Ignore him if he is kind or not, and he doesn't dare to say anything anyway.

Filling the gap after Fang Zhongyong left is the most important thing. Don't think that this battle will kill Yuan Hao. In three or five years at most, Western Xia will inevitably make a comeback and re-invade the west.

After thinking about it, this candidate is really hard to find.

A pure military general is definitely not good, what is the difference between that and Fang Zhongyong? Why don't you replace Fang Zhongyong?

Civil officials who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality are even worse, they are like the pedantic Fan Yong, who will suffer a big loss!

And the identity can't be lowered, like this time Fang Zhongyong and Fan Yong disagreed, almost causing a catastrophe, it is not advisable! It is necessary for important ministers of the court to be able to suppress those arrogant soldiers and civil officials.

After thinking about it, Zhao Zhen hit Xia Zhu with his idea.

Xia Zhu, who was greedy for money, was the third envoy at the time, that is, the minister of finance. Although a person who is greedy for money must be proficient in the method of making money, he does not know whether the money he makes is in his own pocket or the treasury. What's the difference between this and letting the monkeys guard the peach orchard?

Xia Zhu does make money, but he really doesn't put the taxes collected from various places in his pocket, which is not the same level as the dead monkey.

You have eaten all the good peaches, what do you let the leader eat? If I don't clean you up, who will clean up?

Xia Zhu is different, he always puts a good peach first, uh no, he first collects and pays the taxes well, and then accepts the request of others, does what he can but does not violate the principle, and collects a little hard fee, not too much, right?

Not excessive, not excessive. People live in the world, seven aunts and eight aunts, and the sophistication of human feelings still has to be talked about. You help me today, I'll help you tomorrow, everyone helps each other and loves each other.

Xia Zhu, who has been loved by many ministers, is well received and has the potential to soar into the sky.

It is said that everyone has a lot of money and accumulates and destroys the bones, but it can also be said the other way around, even if you are a piece of soaring, there are many people who say that it is fragrant, maybe someone will want to try it.

Zhao Zhen doesn't need to taste it, he has already decided that the current third envoy Xia Zhu is very fragrant and a big pickle, and he is ready to add a burden to him, and he is ordered to appease and recruit envoys for Shaanxi Jingluo.

What kind of job is this?

The name of the place where he served was not Shaanxi Province in later generations, but all the places west of Shaanxi Yuan (in present-day Shaanxi County, Henan). Theoretically, Qingtang Tubo also fell under the jurisdiction of Xia Zhu.

The suffixes "strategy", "pacification", and "requisition" represent the three jurisdictions of finance, administration, and military respectively. If it was placed in the Tang Dynasty, this would be the rhythm of dividing the territory and tearing the flag to rebel.

Will Zhao Zhen be so generous and give Xia Zhu the power to set up another mountain?

No way!

Xia Zhu also knew that it was impossible, and said with great embarrassment: "The affairs of the Weichen are cumbersome, and I dare not leave lightly, so I ask the official family to appoint a deputy envoy in charge of specific affairs." ”

Zhao Zhen was also very reluctant to go away from Xia Zhu, who was good at making money, so he asked, "Ziqiao has a favorite candidate?" ”

"Han Zhigui is a simple person, which is a big deal. Since he was appointed as the right secretary, there has been no mistake, and everything he says has something to say. The minister thought that he could be a deputy envoy. ”

Han Qi's combat power is amazing, and last year, he singled out the prime ministers Wang Sui, Chen Yaozuo, and the governors Han Yi and Shi Zhongli, the so-called "pieces of paper fell to the four rulers". In the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, no one knows Han Zhigui's prestige.

In order to unite this political supernova, Xia Zhu didn't mind recommending Han Qi as his deputy, and went to the northwest instead of himself, so that he could continue to unite more colleagues in the capital.

Xia Zhu didn't mind, but Han Qi minded.

Although he just came back from Yizhou disaster relief and was as tired as his third grandson, Han Qi was not a person who was afraid of being tired. What he feared was that his excessive power would not arouse suspicion? The answer is simply yes.

Why did Xia Zhu recommend himself as a deputy envoy? First, it is to show goodwill, and secondly, it may not be that there is no idea of finding someone to share the risk.

Han Qi, who was a jinshi at the age of twenty and has been in the court for more than ten years, is not an official, and he quickly thought of the object. is not the object of a blind date, but the object of throwing the pot or the common back, Fan Zhongyan.

After entering the palace to meet the saint thanksgiving, Han Qi put forward his own suggestion in a timely manner: "The minister has been in the center for a long time, and there are many things that are not clear in local affairs, and he is even more ignorant of the affairs of the military array. The minister is brave, please use one person from the official family and be the deputy envoy, so as to ensure that there is nothing to do in the northwest! ”

"Oh, I don't know which great talent can deserve Han Zhigui's reward?"

Han Qi and Xia Zhu glanced at each other and said, "Fan Zhongyan! ”

Xia Zhu also immediately said: "The minister seconded the proposal. The minister thought that the two could be made to be deputy envoys, Han Zhigui presided over Jingyuan Road, and Fan Zhongyan presided over Yan Yan Road and knew the Yongxing Army. ”

Zhao Zhen wondered: "This Fan Xiwen really has a talent that has passed through the heavens and latitudes, why are the two of them so respected?" I don't know, how is it compared to the two? ”

Xia Zhu said: "The minister is not in time!" ”

Han Qi was even more modest: "The light of fireflies, how dare you compete with Haoyue?" ”

So, Fan Zhongyan's round of Haoyue rose into the air again and came to Yanzhou.

Fan Yong can rely on his qualifications to scare Fang Zhongyong, but he can't scare Fan Zhongyan.

is not only because Fan Zhongyan is a serious military and political officer, but also because although Fan Zhongyan's age is almost the same as him, his reputation is far beyond Fan Yong. All the corporal in the world are cited as models, and there is quite a bit of "I don't know Fan Zhongyan in my life, so it is in vain to call the scholars".

Fan Yong has also admired this Fan Zhongyan, who was a family five hundred years ago, and regardless of the fact that he is seven years older, he grabbed Fan Zhongyan's hand tightly as soon as they met, and said very kindly: "Brother Xiwen, you have finally come out of the mountain." If Xiwen does not come out, what is the life of the world? ”

Fan Zhongyan may not have been very accustomed to this sudden enthusiasm, so he quietly withdrew his hand, very humble: "Brother Bochun praised it falsely, how dare you compare it with Xie Anshi?" Thanks to the official family's refusal to give up, Fan was able to return to the court and act as the northwest border officer. Do your best to follow the work of dogs and horses. ”

To see if a person is mature, you don't need to look at age, just listen to what you say. Fan Zhongyan, who has been honing outside for many years, is no longer the 205 temper of the year. I already know that I keep saying that I will talk about the official family of Shengming in everything, which is definitely right.

Fan Yong is not afraid of big things when he sees the excitement, and when he saw that there was nothing lively to see, he provoked trouble again: "Brother Xiwen went to office today, Fang Zhongyong didn't come to greet him, it was extremely rude!" Young man, if you seal the Hou, you won't look at others in your eyes! I don't know what to do! ”

Look up, don't you? Not only did Fang Zhongyong not come, but his staff Gongsun Ce and the dog's legs were broken, and even the dozen or so veterans who couldn't get on the stage were nowhere to be seen.

asked Di Qing, who led the Hundred and Tenth Forbidden Army, Di Qing replied very respectfully: "Lord Qiqi Jingluo, Master Fang Hou went to the Martyrs' Cemetery. ”

Yes, you read that right, it is Di Qing and many forbidden soldiers, there are not many people around Fang Zhongyong, and they are basically considered to have betrayed their relatives.

Fan Yong arched the fire again: "Fang Zhongyong is too presumptuous!" If you don't come out to greet Brother Xiwen, you should handle the handover at the Yamen, so why don't you go out and play around? ”

Fan Zhongyan was much more generous, and laughed: "If the mountain doesn't come, I'll go to the mountain, wouldn't it be happy?" ”
