Chapter 161 Among the illiterate is a writer

Zhao Zhen took the manuscript behind "Journey to the West" and left very happily. Before leaving, he casually left another sentence: "Tomorrow, you go to Honglu Temple to serve as Siqing!" ”

Hearing that the official family was coming, Fang's father, who had never dared to show his face, poked his head out: "What kind of temple is Honglu Temple?" Which is bigger, Siqing or the abbot? ”

Xiao Fangzheng is still the most well-behaved, and he did not laugh at his ignorant grandfather at all, but explained very seriously: "Honglu Temple is not a temple, and it is responsible for receiving guests from Siyi." Siqing is even ranked in the ninth qing, with a high position. ”

Fang Zhongyong waved his hand: "Son, don't fool your grandfather." Do you think it was when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still in a high position? It's just a petty official from the fourth grade, who is specially responsible for receiving the envoys of Fanbang to pay tribute to the court, just like the second shopkeeper. ”

Fang Zheng was more serious again: "The position is not low, my father can't be too ambitious!" ”

"Less nonsense! Lao Tzu still needs you to teach a lesson? Let's go on a big horse, shall we? ”

Fang Zheng is a child after all, and he is not finished riding, and he no longer plays deep when he hears the words, so he turns over on the "horse" and drives up. With Fang Zhongyong's "boom", the horse began to gallop again.

The next day, the new shopkeeper, uh no, it should be the new Honglu Siqing's official seal letter and official uniform black yarn were all delivered. The red official uniform, with more than a foot long gauze hat wings, looks very majestic, at least festive, isn't it? It's like being a groom's officer.

In order to show the emperor's grace, Zhao Zhen also intimately carried private goods inside: a goldfish bag. Don't look at it as just a small sachet or something like that, this is a status symbol, and it's even higher than any black card.

With Fang Zhongyong's level, it was originally only possible to match a silver fish bag, but Zhao Zhen rewarded him exceptionally, and the meaning was obvious: work hard, it is not a dream to be promoted to a third-grade executive!

Honglu Siqing is not what Fang Zhongyong said, he is a junior who welcomes and serves foreign guests. In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, except for the envoys of the Northern Liao, there are really no envoys from small countries who dare to ask the Great Song Honglu Temple to bring tea and pour water for themselves, they don't have the guts!

After all, they are all autumn wind guests who give some worthless small gifts and exchange some rewards from the Great Song Dynasty. Before you get the things, you offended the person in charge of the reception first, and you still want benefits?

Although the small countries of Lion and Java were far away and were not afraid of the Great Song Dynasty attack, they all came to China for a common goal. How bad it is to quarrel and quarrel, fight and kill, harmony is precious, and harmony can make money!

There are also those who are not very kind, such as the one in front of him, Mr. Zhen Cheng, who is known as the Northern Liao Wenzong.

This Mr. Zhen Cheng did not wear the usual leather jacket and mink fur of the Northern Liao people, but a wide robe and big sleeves, dressed as a Confucian student. With the crane's childish face, no one can see that he is a Liao man who chases after the fish.

Zhongzhou Yin also said the words in a straight and round tone, and a mouth was like this: "What do you want to get?" Don't hurry up and get out of here! ”

The envoys of the small countries who surrounded Fang Zhongyong like green-headed flies surrounding that matter, the buzz dispersed. Fang Zhongyong was so smoked by the smell of all kinds of fishy smell and seafood that he almost didn't lose his breath, so he quickly took a few breaths of fresh air, and thanked him: "Thank you, sir!" Mr. Unknown is the envoy of which country, and where is the fairy town? ”

Zhen Cheng smiled proudly, and the attendant replied on his behalf: "This is my bachelor of the Great Liao Wenhua Palace, Mr. Zhen Cheng and Zhen Zongzheng." On the orders of my lord, I came to the Central Plains for a trip. ”

Fang Zhongyong's shallow background was instantly exposed: "Is there also a Wenhua Hall in Northern Liao?" Do the people of Northern Liao also read? ”

Zhen Cheng waved his sleeves: "The shaft is rude!" I am a big Liaodi, a vast treasure, and outstanding people. Educated people are like carp crossing the river, innumerable, how can you know that only know how to argue is known! ”

"Who is Nanban? You're the South, uh no, the North, your whole family is the North! "When it comes to fighting, who is Fang Zhongyong afraid of.

But after three or two rounds, Zhen Cheng was defeated: "Sure enough, it's a yellow-mouthed child, and his words are full of vulgar words." A vulgar person like you can actually win six yuan in a row and win the top spot, there is really no one in the Southern Barbarians! What a pity! It's ridiculous that the old man thought you were some kind of amazing and brilliant character, so he came to take a look. It's better to be famous than to meet, it's better not to see! ”

With a wave of his sleeves again, he prepared to leave without taking a cloud with him. Fang Zhongyong didn't want to be counted out in vain.

What do you mean? Think my literary talent is not good? I don't dare to say more, copy out the poems of Su Shi, who was just born, and make sure that you doubt life with low self-esteem!

Fang Zhongyong raised his eyebrows: "Compare?" ”

"Compare!" Zhen Cheng should be old and strong, and he is not afraid of the young man.

It's not better than punches and kicks, to see whose physical strength is better!

This is a competition of cultural people, fighting for the heritage, fighting for the quality. If you can defeat Fang Zhongyong, who is known as a "genius", in literature, and then discuss the matter of increasing the number of coins, it will also be more confident, right?

Zhen Cheng stroked his beard and said proudly: "The old man has been by the emperor's side for a long time, and there are two old works "Ode to the King", which will open your eyes. One of them said, the grass is young and the snow is in full bloom, and the chrysanthemum autumn rain washes the intestines. Yulin followed the noise on the fourth floor, and the concubine smiled and played a thousand marquis.

The second is that the love wind kisses the willow fragrance and floats, and the soul of the pink warbler is a green mirror mink. Xi Shi Guifei beauty show, Feng Junyu face ashamed.

This poem praises me for the many beauties of Daliao and the glory of the emperor. If you grow up in a country like this, I'm afraid you won't have the opportunity to see that grand scene! ”

"I haven't seen it, I've never seen someone as stupid as you. As long as you mock Queen Xiao in your poem, why didn't the Liao lord kill you?

If you want to say a poem about Jun, you listen to this one: Cui Tian Tijing is as light as a smile, and the jade phoenix carving hairpin is about to fly. At dawn, the Emperor Pavilion of Hechun, the colorful clothes are better than the dragon clothes. Show my magnificent grandeur of the Great Song Dynasty, better than your crooked poems that don't make sense of writing, and if you don't get it right, you will be killed! ”

Zhen Cheng's old face turned red, and he played a scoundrel: "The old man knows your ability!" The song "Qingyu Case" is famous at home, and it is just a temptation to speak. Looking at it now, there are still some real talents. But how can the old work show its true ability, do you dare to improvise a poem by the old man? ”

"Why don't you dare?"

Zhen Cheng also paid attention to it: "I heard that Lord Fang fought with Western Xia a few times ago, and he killed 100,000 people. Every time the Tangut people mention it, they hate adults to the core. Dare to ask Lord Siqing, what do you think of the situation in Liao, Song, and Xia? Do you want to take advantage of the victory to pursue, pacify the Western Xia in one fell swoop, and then point the sword at my Da Liao? ”

Fang Zhongyong laughed: "The people of Western Xia hate me again, what does it matter to me?" Can they bite off a single hair of me? I was an official of the Great Song Dynasty, and I received the Song Emperor's salary. If the people in the enemy country like me, I'm afraid there is a problem! As for the situation in the Three Kingdoms, the Emperor of Freedom arranged it, and he did not dare to say anything about it. In my opinion, well, I have heard a great man say a poem that could be given to the messenger to reassure the people.

Born out of nowhere, reckless Kunlun, read the spring of the world. Three million jade dragons flew up, stirring up Zhou Tian's cold. Summer dissolves, rivers overflow, people or fish and turtles. Who has commented on the merits and crimes of a thousand years?

Now I call Kunlun: don't want this high, don't want this snow. Ande drew his sword and cut you into three? A section of the Liao, a section of the summer, and a section of the return to the east. In the peaceful world, Huanyu is hot and cold. ”

After all, Zhen Cheng is not a fanatical warmonger, and Fang Cai's aggressiveness is just a negotiation skill, and the so-called preemptive voice is also. Since he failed to frighten the enemy, he no longer stubbornly carried it.

To put it bluntly, he is just a royal literati, and he is still of Han descent. Neither can he fight on horseback, but he is not related to the royal family and the descendants. How dare you speak out and threaten to fight each other?

In the end, Zhen Cheng said to Fang Zhongyong very sincerely: "I hope that what Lord Fang said is from the bottom of his heart, so that the two countries can live in harmony forever, and don't let the lives of the people be miserable!"

The old man has a reluctant request, if Emperor Song sends someone to send New Year's coins to Daliao, I hope that Lord Fang can be the right envoy. When the time comes, let's have a good time drinking and talking happily to continue today's friendship. ”

Diplomatic rhetoric or something, whoever believes who dies.

Fang Zhongyong didn't take the words of the so-called "sincere" gentleman to heart at all, he was talking about jokes, why should he take them seriously! Unexpectedly, Mr. Cheng is really a sincere person who does what he says.

At the court meeting the next day, Mr. Zhen Cheng first expressed the empress dowager of Daliao and the emperor's strong longing for Zhao Zhen with enthusiastic words. I don't know, I thought that Empress Dowager Xiao had an unclear relationship with Zhao Zhen.

The fierce rhetoric and ambiguous language made the high-ranking officials of the Great Song Dynasty who paid attention to subtlety and euphemism pout. You guys really fought hard for that little coin!

Zhao Zhen is not a young man who is easy to fool, and he will definitely not rashly increase the New Year's coins for the sake of two good words that are worthless. Therefore, Zhao Zhen just smiled very reservedly: "I bow to An, but I am tired of the Empress Dowager Xiao and my brother." ”

Good words are not good, Zhen Cheng began to cry and threaten: "Dare to report to His Majesty Emperor Song that he knows." In recent years, the weather has become colder and colder, and tens of thousands of people in Daliao are short of food and clothing, and they are waiting to be fed. As the saying goes, hunger and cold make a thief. What if our people were forced to harass the border and do something that is detrimental to the friendship and good-neighborliness of the two countries? ”

Cao Xi, who was successfully promoted to the commander of the palace, laughed: "It's good to disturb the attack!" My Great Song Dynasty is full of fierce generals, and it has been useless. I heard that the Liao people are good at riding and shooting, and they happen to hunt in the northern Xinjiang and fight for each other, wouldn't it be happy! ”

This old immortal may be afraid that he will really let him go hunting in Northern Liao, and he slandered again: "Especially Fang Zhongyong, the Qing of Honglu Temple, is the best at miscellaneous governance of foreign races. The 100,000 army of Western Xia attacked, and Yuan Hao was only spared. I don't know which general in Northern Liao dares to fight with it? ”

Fang Zhongyong, who was standing in the civil official team, couldn't help but secretly scolded his mother: Lao Tzu is now a civil official, and he loses his ID card when he fights and kills. In case you accidentally defeat the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, how difficult will you make the Zhao Song official family who had promised to "get Yanyun crowned" a long time ago?

Crowned king, right? I'm afraid that you, a prince with a different surname, will rebel.

Don't be crowned king, right? Where do you put the face of Emperor Song, who flaunts benevolence and righteousness?

Therefore, let's be our own diplomatic reception staff for the time being, so as not to make too many and too many contributions, and if we are not careful, we will be shocked by the master, and if we are not careful, we will kill the master's family as the one who has finished the grinding.

Depressed!
