Da Song Jaefu's income is very high, although it is still difficult to buy a house, but except for the house, he can be regarded as a rich man.

So when he heard that the envoy of Western Xia had gone to the Shen family with a gift, Han Qi's first reaction was to shake his head, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't believe it." ”

Others may take bribes, but Shen An's family wealth is countless, where is it necessary for him to collect money?

Zhao Shu nodded and said, "I don't believe it either, I think about the envoy too much." ”

Bao Zheng smiled, "Shen An's child knows that the envoy of Western Xia will be driven out if he goes to bribe." ”

"Your Majesty......"

When the news came, Chen Zhongheng came in with an attendant.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Western Xia entered the Shen family with a few wooden boxes, and came out empty-handed."

Fuck it!

Bao Zheng's old face flushed, and he instantly remembered the air-dried meat.

Zhao Shu frowned and said, "Go and ask." ”

Ouyang Xiu, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister knows some of Shen An's temperament, probably because outsiders must take advantage of it, even if it is just a little." But this is not a bribe, and the minister concluded that those things would be sent to the palace later. ”

Bao Zheng glanced at him and nodded slightly, feeling that he was concerned about it, but he didn't expect Shen An's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, someone from the Shen family has sent something."

"Hahahaha!" Zhao Shu couldn't help laughing, and he laughed very comfortably.

"Ouyang Qing is really a god."

Shen An doesn't accept bribes, this matter is considered proper, Han Qi said with a cold face: "The Liao envoy and the Western Xia envoy went to the Shen family together, and the Liao envoy was mostly there to probe the wind, but what about the Western Xia envoy?" What did he go to do? ”

Zeng Gongliang frowned slightly and thought for a moment, "The old man thinks ...... I'm afraid that the DPRK will cut off their coins. Western Xia was poor, and without those coins, their lives would be very difficult. ”

Zhao Shu nodded and said: "That's right, but Shen An's side can mix it up casually, as for the coins of Western Xia, what do you think of it?" ”

"Or ...... All at once? Han Qi said: "The Western Xia and the Liao people have formed an alliance, let's just cut off their money together, the Western Xia people are poor, so they will naturally seek the Liao people for money and food, but the Liao people are not having a good time!" ”

Zhao Shu smiled: "So their own family is going to make a fuss, okay!" Han Qing's words are very good, so summon the envoy of Western Xia. ”

"Your Majesty is wise."

Zaifu's faces were flushed, and they felt that today would be a big day worthy of being recorded in the annals of history, and it was really an honor for them to be able to participate in it!

"Your Majesty, Zhang has been here for eight years."

Zhao Shu covered his forehead and said: "I'm afraid that nothing good will happen to him when he comes, but I'm used to it, let him in." ”

The Imperial City Division is full-time to inquire about the news, and it is indeed that there is nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

Zhang Banian entered the hall as if he was floating, his eyes were deeply sunken and cold, like a dried corpse.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of Western Xia and the envoy of Liao fought outside Yulin Lane, three of them were fractured, and one of them has not woken up to ...... yet."

Belch!

Zhao Shu and Zai Fu looked at each other and asked, "Why did you do it?" ”

"I don't know." Zhang Banian said: "The Liao envoy scolded the Western Xia envoy for betraying the covenant. The envoys of Western Xia scolded the Liao people for being insatiable. ”

"It's a fight...... All right! Han Qi suddenly slapped it with his hand, and Zeng Gongliang's thigh behind him was hit hard, and he immediately hissed and ached. Then he easily twisted Han Qi's fat waist.

Han Qi struggled slightly, Zeng Gongliang couldn't pinch his fat, and then said proudly: "Your Majesty, as soon as the envoys of the two countries fight, this is a face-turn!" The minister suggested that Lang Zhong should be sent to the Western Xia envoy immediately, and as for the Liao people, they were cold. ”

"It's a divisive ploy, not bad."

Zhao Shu felt that Han Qi had really grown, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered: "Just do it." ”

The monarch and the minister were beaming, and Bao Zheng suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister...... The minister thinks that Shen An is afraid that there is some credit in this! ”

Bao Zheng could have been a leader, but he said that he would stay up for a few more years to shield Shen An from the wind and rain, and now this is it.

With him, it is impossible for the DPRK and China to get Shen An in private, and the credit cannot be ignored.

Zhao Shu thought about it, so he ordered: "Go and call Shen Anlai." ”

Before the words fell, someone came to say, "Your Majesty, Shen An, please see you." ”

"Is this a sign of merit?" Zhao Shu smiled: "Let him come." ”

Later, Shen An came, and Zhao Shu asked, "What happened to the fight between the Liao State and the Western Xia envoys?" ”

"......" Shen An looked at Bao Zheng, and when he saw that his expression was calm, he knew that there was no problem, so he boldly said: "In the morning, the envoy of the Western Xia came to see the minister, and the minister said that the Liao people wanted us to abolish the coins given to the Western Xia people, and instead gave the money to the Liao people, so that both countries were very happy." The envoy of Western Xia didn't believe it, but he only left with his front foot, and the Liao envoy came to the minister's house with his back foot......"

Zhao Shu was happy when he heard it, "You, you, I just asserted that you did it on purpose." ”

Han Qi also smiled, "The minister seconded the proposal, Shen An is too bad, he is definitely cheating people." ”

Shen An said with a pure face: "It's just a coincidence, and the minister told the Liao envoy that the Western Xia people were willing to make friends with the Great Song Dynasty in order to keep the New Year's coin...... The Liao envoy didn't believe it either. ”

Zhao Shu had already thought of some ideas at this moment, and couldn't help but be amazed.

"Later, the envoy of Western Xia really came again, and brought many gifts, and the minister had already asked someone to quietly send them to the palace."

Shen An said with a straight face: "What the minister hates most in this life is corruption. ”

What a courtier!

Zhao Shu praised: "Shen An is good. ”

Han Qi said: "Your Majesty, Shen An went back and forth between the envoys of the two countries, and a few words made them turn against each other, such a skill...... reminded the minister of the years before the Han Dynasty, those vertical and horizontal families traveled all over the country, together vertically and horizontally, with a three-inch incorruptible tongue...... What are you doing? ”

When he said that the three-inch tongue was not rotten, Shen An couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick his lips.

Han Qi frowned and shook his head, "Shen An's move is very good, if the alliance between the two countries can be broken, then the Great Song Dynasty will be much calmer, Your Majesty, this is good news!" ”

"yes!" Zhao Shu nodded to Shen An, feeling that this kid is a clever person, especially a pit person, it is really a pit and a quasi.

"If it weren't for the fact that the Liao people hated you to the core, I really wanted to send you to the Liao country to see if I could trap Yelu Hongji."

"Hahahaha!"

The Zaisukes couldn't help but laugh.

Ouyang Xiu said with a smile: "Shen An changed his name to Cao Xueqin outside Yanmen Pass last time, and almost burned Yelu Hongji to death with a fire, Your Majesty, if he goes to Liao, Yelu Hongji is afraid that he will make an exception!" ”

The two countries are fighting and not killing, this is the rule, but according to Shen An's ability to die, Ouyang Xiu feels that this rule is useless to him.

The crowd laughed again.

Everyone was in a very good mood, but Shen An said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the diplomacy of the country, the first thing is strength, if the Great Song Dynasty has strong strength and can not be afraid of the Liao State, then any means are just icing on the cake." This is the case with such means, and the battle between great powers still has to rely on fists to speak. ”

Zhao Shu nodded and praised: "This is reasonable. The battle between great powers relies on fists, and only when fists are hard can the other party be obedient, I know. ”

"You've grown a lot!"

Zhao Shu praised: "I was worried that you would do it before, who would have thought that you would be able to seize the opportunity to provoke the envoys of the two countries, so that the Great Song Dynasty has gained a lot of benefits, good!" ”

Han Qi said: "I'm afraid that the alliance between the two countries is going to be in vain, so according to the temperament of Western Xia, if the Liao people send troops south, they will at most guard the border to watch, if the Great Song Dynasty is weak, they will take the opportunity to send troops, if the Great Song Dynasty is strong, they will not move, so that the Great Song Dynasty can concentrate on dealing with the Liao people, okay!" ”

Zhao Shu nodded and smiled: "That's true, it's always good to have one less opponent." In this way, the Liao people will be in trouble. ”

After leaving the main hall, Bao Zheng and Shen An walked behind.

"You have made a meritorious contribution this time, but you are really not tempted by the things sent by Xixia?" Bao Zheng looked very serious, if you don't tell the truth, the old man will be able to chase and kill outside Bianliang City from here.

"I won't be tempted." Shen An said lightly: "Those medicinal herbs ...... Bao Gong, you don't know, those Western Xia merchants gave everything in order to get the fragrance and glass, and the envoy's little thing really didn't pay attention to it. ”

He said this with great self-confidence, and he had the boldness to regard money as dung.

Bao Zheng was relieved and said with a smile: "At the end of the year, go back to the house to get some mutton steamed buns, the old man personally adjusted the stuffing, and made dozens of them, you remember to let the fruit eat less, so as not to eat." ”

Belch!

Shen An smiled: "Okay." The family will get some seafood this year, and when the time comes, they will cook some dishes, and someone will send them over on the last day. ”

"Seafood? The old man didn't like it very much. ”

"Then mountain goods." Shen An's heroic face was not bad for money, so that Bao Zheng almost couldn't help but want to slap him.

……

"I like seafood!"

Su Shi met Shen An outside the imperial city, and Shen An said this year's gift in passing, and Su Shi was immediately moved.

"Then send some more." Shen An felt that sooner or later, this guy would become a big fat man.

"Okay." Su Shi waved his hand, and was about to leave, when he suddenly turned around and asked, "I heard two messengers fighting just now, what is there to say about this?" ”

The Imperial Historical Observatory needs these news, and the Imperial Historians need to grasp this information, otherwise the impeachment of the person in the future will be targetless.

For example, in terms of foreign decision-making, as an imperial historian, you don't know the specific relationship between the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State today, so how can you impeach the decisions made by others?

In the original history, Sima Guang gave the territory that the Great Song Dynasty had worked so hard to win all the way to the Western Xia people, why didn't those imperial histories make a sound?

The reason is simple, because they judged the relationship between the Great Song and Western Xia, as well as the Liao State.

In the eyes of the imperial historians at that time, it was best to maintain peace between the Great Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom, and the Western Xia, so everyone covered their faces and pretended not to know.

But now it's different, the Great Song Dynasty abolished the Liao Sui coin, it is the moment when morale is like a rainbow, whoever dares to do this, it is everyone shouting and beating.

Shen An crumpled the most quintessential thing in it and told him, and finally said: "This matter has a far-reaching impact on the relations between the three kingdoms and has great benefits to the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Su Shi said with a smile: "Yushitai is discussing this matter, so I will go and surprise them, so as to accumulate some merits and prepare for future promotions." ”
