Chapter 455: The Great Victory in the Imperial Palace

Guangguang, take the initiative to be your little brother!

Of course, Wang Ningan smiled from ear to ear, but he still had to pretend to be deep, "Brother Junshi, there is nothing good to do with me, you also know that since I joined the office, I have been impeached every year, and I have been attacked every month. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Guangguang immediately shook his head, he believes in the way of a gentleman, since he said it, he can't deny it, he really admires Wang Ning'an's insight, besides, if it wasn't for Wang Ning'an recommending him to envoy to Western Xia, a lifetime of fame would be over, what a kindness this is! If he doesn't repay the favor, he will never think of raising his head.

What's more, he has now been beaten into one of the three gangsters who have been with Wang Ningan all the way, no matter what he thinks, outsiders have put them together, since this is the case, it is better to lean over.

Guangguang also has an abacus, Wang Ning'an has been in and out of the prime minister in less than ten years, and he has defeated a large group of ministers, a bunch of protΓ©gΓ©s and disciples, countless allies around him, and he has won the favor of the Son of Heaven, and when he comes together, at least there is no loss.

I have to say that Sima Guang is a natural actuary, and after turning around a little, he figured out the powerful relationship.

"Wang Xianggong, the lower officials really admire the talents of the Xianggong, and they will not give up, and the lower officials are willing to worship Mr. as a teacher!"

Wang Ningan blinked and said with a smile: "Brother Junshi, I'm afraid you won't be able to look down on this bit of my knowledge!" ”

Sima Guang made up his mind, and simply regarded himself as a student, "The talent of a gentleman can be compared to books!" ”

Wang Ningan smiled even more happily, "Okay, I won't shirk, Junshi." ”

"The students are here."

"Since you are hard-hearted, let's join hands to fight the enemy!"

Guangguang was suddenly stunned, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, who are you going to deal with?" ”

"It's not those big families in the northwest, someone has already gone to the palace to sue me, you follow me to the palace to face the saint!"

As he spoke, Wang Ningan lifted the curtain of the car and asked, "How far is it from the palace?" ”

"Go back to the young master, it's two more streets away."

Wang Ningan was silent, he lowered his eyelids, and quickly went through it in his heart, preparing a good deal to deal with. Sima Guang was a little dumbfounded, obediently, he had just recognized the teacher, and he was about to go to the battlefield, how did it look, it seemed to be premeditated! Wang Ningan deliberately lured himself to the bait and acted as a thug for him? is worthy of light, and he guessed Wang Ningan's dirty thoughts at once, but what can he do if he doesn't have it now?

If you're already on the thief ship, don't even think about going down......

"Bitter!"

Sima Guang secretly complained in his heart, but he had no choice but to follow Wang Ning'an honestly and arrived at the palace, just in time for Su Gui to wait outside.

"Lord Wang is really an unpredictable prophet, and the saint is asking the slave to invite the lord!"

Wang Ningan smiled, walked closer, and said in a low voice: "How many are here?" ”

"Five!"

Su Gui stretched out his slap, shook it, and said with a cheap smile: "Lord Wang, the opportunity to fight the heroes has come." ”

Wang Ningan smiled implicitly, just handed over the sign, and after a while, it was announced.

In the palace, in addition to Zhao Zhen, there are five high-ranking officials, the first one is Shaanxi Zhulu Jinglu to appease Pang Ji, the second is Hanlin bachelor Wang Qi, the third is a thin little old man, he is Liu Ji, the head of Qinfeng Road, Luoyang, this person was a famous prodigy in his early years, and later recommended by Fan Zhongyan to enter the office, very capable, outstanding political achievements, it stands to reason that he should not oppose Wang Ning'an, but Liu Ji is the one who hates Wang Ning'an the most.

It was Fan Zhongyan who recommended Liu Ji out of the mountain, and it was Sun Wei who made Liu Ji Fei Huang Tengda!

At the beginning, Nong Zhigao rebelled, Sun Wei and other Lingnan officials were all killed, and the death was unknown, so this account naturally had to be counted on Wang Ningan's head!

Liu cried bitterly several times and vowed to make Wang Ningan pay the price!

After Liu Ji, there are two more, one is Xi Ruyan, the judge of Xijing Yushitai, and the other is Zhang Wen, the servant of Yushi.

These five, including the prime minister, the minister, the leader, and the two officials, can be described as a strong lineup and extraordinary! When Wang Ningan walked in with Sima Guang, Pang's old face was black!

Sure enough, you rabbit cub actually got together with Wang Ningan!

What an unfed white-eyed wolf!

Villains with wolf hearts and dogs!

As soon as Sima Guang raised his head, he saw Pang Ji's cannibalistic gaze, and hurriedly lowered his head.

Broken!

The loess mud fell into the crotch of his pants, it was not but was also, and he would definitely completely offend Pang Ji.

Even the bright and wise head can't think of a way to crack it, so he can only run one way until it goes dark...... After seeing the ceremony, Zhao Zhen gave Wang Ningan a seat, looked up at Sima Guang, Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "You are the hero of the envoy to Western Xia, Sima Aiqing, right?" ”

Sima Guang hurriedly saluted, "The minister sent an envoy by order, and he only knew how to do things honestly, but the minister's talent was slightly limited, and he did some things, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong, and asked His Majesty to forgive him!" ”

Guangguang was very humble, but Liu Ji grabbed the handle and immediately said, "Since you don't know right or wrong, how dare you let the green salt of Xixia come in?" Could it be that the wine and beauty of Western Xia have confused you? ”

As soon as it came up, it was a personal attack, and Liu Ji looked murderous.

Guangguang is humble, but he is an extremely proud person in his bones, if it weren't for the mistakes and getting involved in this chaos, he wouldn't have worshiped Wang Ning'an as a teacher!

Just imagine, even Wang Ningan looks down on him, how can he care about Liu Ji!

"Lord Liu doesn't understand what he said, is it that the ministers who have been sent to the country over the years, as long as they drink wine and watch the beauty dance, they are not loyal to the Great Song Dynasty? If this is the case, how many of the princes of the imperial court have been envoys to Western Xia and Liao, don't you have to doubt it? ”

Liu Ji was choked so that his face was red and his neck was thick, but Wang Ningan laughed secretly in his heart, pulling light, he made a lot of money, and his combat effectiveness was quite strong!

"Sima Guang, don't talk nonsense, the old man asked you, why did you promise the green salt of Western Xia to enter the Great Song Dynasty?" Liu Ji asked again: "Don't you know that the salt law is important?" Don't you understand that this is an enemy? The old man sees that you are basically trying to disrupt the country, and you have been bought by the Tangut people! ”

Sima Guang said twice, "Lord Liu, the lower official doesn't want to fight with you about the green salt, the lower official just wants to ask for advice, if you don't let the green salt of Western Xia enter, what is a good way for Lord Liu to get the best of both worlds, please advise!" ”

"This ......"

Liu Ji was asked again.

Wang Ningan stroked his palms and laughed on the side, "Well said, my lords, as important ministers of the court, you can't talk and do things like a shrew, you can't just know how to buckle your hat and oppress people with power, this is not good!" You have to come up with a way to do it, the current situation in the northwest, is it war, is it peace, is it to cede land and pay compensation, increase the annual currency, or open up green salt and expand trade...... The lesser of two evils, the heavier of two benefits! This truth is obvious, and I think you can see it clearly, and you have a better way, just put it forward. If not, just standing on the shore and watching the ship capsize, blindly talking about the wind and cold, then it will lose the dignity of the minister. What's more, the holy mirror is hanging high, and the candle is shining thousands of miles, so whoever does more and makes more mistakes can't be, right? ”

As soon as these words came out, Guangguang almost cried, and gave Wang Ningan two thumbs up in his heart, worthy of being my master, that is, a cow!

Sure enough, the five people who were still aggressive just now all seemed a little stammering at the moment, and they couldn't think of words to refute it.

They are all against opening up the import of green salt, but if they don't let green salt in, what will they let in? You must always have an exchange with the Western Xia in order to reach a peace agreement, otherwise the Western Xia people are not so easy to dismiss.

Xi Ruyan said with a calm face: "Salt is related to the livelihood of thousands of people, it is very important, if it is manipulated in the hands of Western Xia, the country will not be a country." Such a concession is unheard of, rather than this, it is better to fight to the death with Xixia! ”

Liu Ji finally relented, and hurriedly said: "The old minister thinks that what Xi Zhongcheng said is extremely true, he should start a war with Western Xia, and he can't make peace easily!" ”

Guangguang glanced at Liu Ji, and sneered in his heart, when this Lord Liu was young, he was indeed a member of the officials, and he could even lead people and horses to kill in the field, very brave, but when he got older, he had long since lost his courage as he used to be, and he had been in charge of Qin Fenglu for a few years, and his subordinates were very unpresentable, lacking quotas, greedy for ink, cronyism, forming gangs, and even killing the people, and the local grievances were very great.

In fact, the speed of the Northwest Army's corruption in recent years has been very amazing, and it has long since lost its bravery, otherwise there would not have been the defeat of Qu Yehe, and it was killed by the Western Xia people!

"Lord Liu, Lord Xi, since you advocate war, then ask the two adults to personally supervise the troops and fight to the death with Western Xia! The lower officials are not talented, and they are willing to lead the horses and fall for the two adults, even if they die in the battlefield together, they have no regrets! ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Ji and Xi Ruyan's faces turned dark, and even the army of the family was defeated, where did they come from to start a war with Western Xia, one by one, their old faces were purple and red, and they could only stare at Sima Guang with poisonous eyes, if their eyes could kill, Guangguang would have become a piece of meat long ago.

Pang Ji is old-fashioned in the end, he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it is indeed inappropriate to start a war with Western Xia now, but Western Xia may not dare to use force against the Great Song Dynasty, at this juncture, the most important thing is to have courage, not afraid of strong enemies, not humble and not arrogant, in order to retreat from the enemy, not blindly retreat, there is no bottom line!" ”

It seems that Pang Ji was really angry, and he almost scolded his nose. Guangguang was very bitter in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only lower his head.

At this time, Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, "Pang Xianggong, I understand your worries, but I think it's not necessary!" ”

Zhao Zhen stood up with a smile, walked a few steps, came to Wang Ning'an's side, and said with a smile: "I remember that Wang Qing said a sentence, when it comes to doing business and saving money, I, the people of the Song Dynasty, can't beat the barbarians?" As for worrying about the problem of not enough salt, there is no need, how many people are there in Western Xia, and my Great Song Dynasty has millions of salt workers alone, unless the whole country of Western Xia digs salt for the Great Song Dynasty, in order to control the salt lifeline of my Great Song Dynasty. It's just that at that time, is there still a threat in Western Xia? ”

"Pang Xianggong, the recovery of Youzhou is inseparable from trade, the recovery of the Hetao is also inseparable from Qingyan, you all have to think carefully about which is more important, and you must know in your hearts!"
