After Wang Hou bowed, he retired and went out.

The two pairs of border ministers in five days not only proved the importance of Wang Hou's position, but also Zhao Ji wanted to hear more about the good news he brought.

For example, the rich results of the tea and horse trade, such as the rapid growth of the Longxi household registration, such as the steady expansion of Xihe Tianmu, such as the competition of the barbarians from all over the world, and even the states of Xihe Road, and now the Keju League to be held every four Fengjiu, all made Zhao Ji listen to it with relish.

As soon as he thought of playing gentle and elegant in the capital, and he was already so soft that he only won the footwork and had some interesting footwork, when he arrived in Longxi, it turned out to be a sport that caused serious injuries and blood splashed everywhere, Zhao Ji couldn't help but boil his blood and couldn't wait to see it with his own eyes.

Looking forward to the Keju competition of the Jin Ge Iron Horse, after a long time, Zhao Ji didn't have the heart to take a look at the music on the table. He just didn't want to think about the two cases that had plagued him these days and directly split the court.

But his courtiers would never let him get his wish. Li Shunju, who was on duty today, reported in Zhao Ji's ear: "Official, Fan Bailu is right. ”

"Xuan!" Zhao Ji was very helpless.

Regarding the case of Zhao Shiju and Li Feng's rebellion, Shen Kuo, who has a weak personality, has been kicked aside, and Fan Bailu went to the palace alone to play it. Walking up to the hall, Fan Zhen's nephew said loudly: "Your Majesty, Li Shining has confessed today, Xining has been in June of the fifth year, and he has given a dragon knife to the world. And tasted the mother of the world, and took four of the poems of Renzong as a gift. And he said: 'If you are not public, you can't do this.' ’”

Well, according to what Fan Bailu said, when Li Shining gave Zhao Shiju the dragon knife, he happened to live in Wang Anshi's mansion. Zhao Ji didn't care about chopping up one or two Taoist priests according to the law and sending them to see Taishang Laojun for thirty-three days, but he never wanted to involve Wang Anshi as well.

Annoyedly, Fan Bailu left the confession, and Zhao Ji motioned for him to retreat. Just a moment later, Deng Huang came up again.

"Official, Deng Juan asks to see."

"Xuan ......" Zhao Ji's voice was full of exhaustion.

Deng Juan came up, and the case also made progress, but this time it implicated Feng Jing. Zhao Ji also dealt with the same thing, left a confession, and invited the person out of the country.

The latest confessions of the two cases were in front of him, but Zhao Ji had no intention of taking a second look.

The two cases, in fact, can be closed as long as he has the next will not to delve into it, but Zhao Ji just doesn't want to. The Great Song Tianzi saw a lot of rebellious words from the confessions of the two cases, which made his heart panic - the confession also recorded that someone once called Zhao Shiju look like Taizu. As a lineage of Taizong, Zhao Ji doesn't like to hear this sentence - it is already a shameful knife, how can it be easily sheathed? He didn't want to stop there.

But Zhao Ji didn't want to expand the two cases, and the big prison would inevitably involve hundreds of families and dozens of eunuchs, which was definitely not a good thing for the stability of the court.

Can't you just just talk about things!?

Because of these two cases, the old and new parties in the DPRK and China have been completely opposed, and the government has not been delayed much because of the delay. Zhao Ji has been anxious and annoyed in the past few days, and there are two blood bubbles on the corners of his mouth, and it hurts badly if he doesn't touch it.

There is also Han Gang, Lu Huiqing took the case of the Xiang army gathering people, and wanted to have a plot. Han Gang, the client, stayed out of the matter and didn't say a word, it seemed that he didn't agree with Lu Huiqing's thoughts, but he didn't object. Zhao Ji has no intention of caring so much. But in Han Gang's hands, the weapons supervisor is like a colander, no matter what is created, it can spread all over Tokyo City in the blink of an eye, and it will set off a storm in the end, which makes Zhao Ji a little unacceptable.

Zhao Ji could vaguely figure out Han Gang's thoughts: in order to promote the theory of Gewu as soon as possible, he would rather let himself make some mistakes and suffer some stigma. For an emperor, as long as the courtiers below do things well, he doesn't care about his thoughts in private, Han Gang can still be regarded as a capable minister. And an official who is unclear about the people and the gods and ghosts is clean, but it is not a good thing. Han Gang was stained with some stigma, but Zhao Ji was happy to see it.

However, if militaristic weapons such as the Divine Arm Bow, Plate Armor, Thunderbolt Cannon, and Bed Crossbow leaked out, Zhao Ji would not be able to tolerate it. In the past, according to the system of the Ordnance Prison, even before the establishment of the Ordnance Prison, the various artifacts made in the various workshops, especially the twenty-one works related to siege equipment, were made in a way that was not written down, and only allowed the craftsmen to pass on by word of mouth, and it was strictly forbidden to inquire about the situation of other workshops. It is the compilation of the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts", and some of the data in it are deliberately obscured.

"Official...... Official ...... Official! Li Shun raised the voice of the Son of Heaven, one voice higher than the other.

Zhao Ji's body was shocked, and he was awakened from his thoughts, and asked a little dazedly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Official." Li Shunju said softly, "Bachelor Hanlin and Pavilion Companion Liu Zhen have something important to ask for the right thing. ”

Liu Zhen was an official who was sent to accompany the envoys of the Liao State. According to the alliance of the Yuanyuan, Emperor Zhenzong and Liao Shengzong became brothers. Since then, the Song and Liao countries have become in-laws, and Zhao Ji still calls the current son of Liao as his uncle. The hostility between the two countries remains, but on the scene, there is nothing lacking. Therefore, when it comes to the New Year's Festival or the birthday of the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven, the two countries will send envoys to each other to congratulate each other. When the envoy comes, he must also arrange for someone to receive him. Living in the same post, approaching the court, seeing the speech, and traveling to the banquet, you have to accompany the left and right, and the one who undertakes this errand is the embassy escort.

The officials who accompanied the Liao envoys were usually not low-level officials, and they often saw Hanlin scholars coming to pick up guests. Liu Zhen had just returned to Beijing recently and became a bachelor of Hanlin, and he was appointed as the accompanying envoy of the embassy to accompany the Liao envoy. His urgency, of course, will not be related to Western Xia.

As soon as he heard that the matter involved Liaoguo, Zhao Ji became nervous and immediately said: "Xuan! ”

Liu Zhen soon entered the palace, he was a direct character, after the salute, the door-to-door said to Zhao Xu: "Your Majesty, the Liao envoy asked the minister about the orbit today, and asked in detail about the spaceship, iron ship and other things, and also sent people to the printing house to buy "Buoyancy Tracing the Source". Judging by his actions, he will have a plan. ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, he was shocked. If Han Gang's invention leaked out and only circulated in the country, he wouldn't have worried about it at all. But once the matter involves the Khitans, Zhao Ji can't feel at ease.

"Quickly pass Han Gang into the palace!"

Han Gang was urgently summoned to the palace again, and he could see the Son of Heaven once in two or three days, but this could not be regarded as a favor.

went to the palace, worshiped the Son of Heaven, and listened to Liu Zhen re-explain the whole thing, Han Gang asked directly: "I don't know what the bachelor is worried about?" ”

Liu Zhen was awe-inspiring and saluted to Zhao Xu: "Your Majesty, the Qin people repaired the Zhengguo Canal, and they couldn't peep east for ten years, but once the water came to fruition, it would sweep the world." Orbits and spaceships are two things, the world is rushing to them, when it can be seen that their effectiveness, the Khitan people may not be useful in the country's plans, please Your Majesty to take precautions on this matter as soon as possible. ”

Liu Zhen kept asking Zhao Ji to make it convenient, which meant that the orbit and spaceship that Han Gang was building were not a good thing, and it would be a disaster if they were built. Wu Chong said and Feng Jing said that many people believe that such an easy-to-imitate invention is actually helping the Khitan and the party. There is no need to think much about how much of this remark is public and how much is selfish.

"The Qin people built the Zhengguo Canal for irrigation, so that their country could produce millions more stone grains, and its function is still above today's white canal. I don't know what use the Liao people can use to repair the track? Han Gang sneered and asked, "If the Liao State renovates the track, it will never be the First Emperor who repairs the Zhengguo Canal, but the Emperor Yang of Sui who repairs the Grand Canal." It is precisely because of the shortage of horses in China that tracks that can save animal power are useful. If it is like the Khitan, there are tens of millions of war horses, what are they doing with all the hard work to repair the track? ”

"Where's the ship?"

Han Gang didn't want to argue, he was already very annoyed these days, although he wasn't angry like the two obvious bubbles on the corners of Zhao Ji's mouth, but the frequent waste of saliva was of course unbearable. But in front of Zhao Ji's inquiring eyes, he still had to ask patiently: "The spaceship is a tool used in siege and defense of the city, and it can only be fixed on the ground to prevent it from drifting away, and it cannot be used to fight, so why should the bachelor worry about it?" ”

Zhao Ji still has to rely on Han Gang to preside over the weapons superintendent, and he can't agree with Liu Zhen's attack on Han Gang, and it is also an old statement that Han Gang has refuted many times, and there is nothing new to say. After saying a few words, he asked Liu Zhen to retreat and continue to match the Khitan envoys.

It's just that the matter involves the Liao people, and maybe the party members are already stretching out their hands. If a year or two has passed, in the cities of Liao and Xia, one after another spaceships will be lifted; On the wharf and even on the avenue, there were railroad carriages to transport grain and military materials, which was definitely a disaster for Zhao Ji and the Great Song Dynasty.

"Han Qing, you still have to be more vigilant in prison and strictly guard the secrets in prison. I don't want to see that after two years, the Iron Harrier is really wearing a full set of iron armor all over his body. Zhao Ji's words were already a little heavy, but he still had to remind Han Gang.

"Obey." Han Gang saluted, raised his head, and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, after the minister returns, he will be strictly supervised and disciplined, so that the secrets in the prison will not be leaked to the second captive in the northwest." ”

"Oh, that's good!" Zhao Ji was a little tired, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead.

"Your Majesty's body is heavy in the world, and you have to take care of your body." Han Gang looked at Zhao Ji's movements and said with concern.

'Take care? How to take care? I don't let me be quiet every day! Zhao Ji wanted to scold, but his self-control as the Son of Heaven made him endure it. Nodding reservedly, "Han Qing has a heart." ”

Han Gang lowered his head, "It's almost in the past two days. ’
