Sima Guang read two lines of poetry with emotion, and in his arms there was a set of exquisite luminous cups, top treasures from the Western Regions, which were given to him by Li Liangzuo.

The original owner of the cup is no longer verifiable, but it is known that before Li Liangzuo, this cup belonged to Yelu Hongji, and the cup was one of the many gifts he gave to Xixia to ask for marriage.

During the Western Xia, Sima Guang and the Khitan envoy Yelu Yixin repeatedly fought several times, and Guangguang relied on his wise mind to play Yelu Yixin like a monkey. He also succeeded in persuading Western Xia to give up hostility with the Great Song Dynasty.

This trip, Guangguang gained a lot, and he found that he was indeed talking on paper in the past, and he relied entirely on imagination to use swords and soldiers, which is really damned!

The Western Xia is indeed in crisis, Li Liangzuo, who represents the royal family, and the Minister of State, that is, his own uncle and uncle, as well as many Western Xia nobles, they have sharp contradictions, and sooner or later there will be an outbreak!

But just like any illness, it takes a process, from Wang Ning'an to see Yelu Chongyuan's ambitions, until Chongyuan raised his army, seven years before and after.

Guangguang saw the crisis in Western Xia, and then immediately sent troops, it is strange not to touch a head and break the blood!

The emperor of Western Xia, Li Liangzuo, was only ten years old!

Even if he has the heart to eradicate the ministers, why should he wait a few years!

What can a 10-year-old do?

"Confused, really confused!"

Guangguang faced Qu Ye River, sighed for a long time, he took out the precious luminous cup, took out a pot of Western Regions wine, and sprinkled the dark red wine into Qu Ye River, paying tribute to the living beings who died because of his recklessness.

"Shame on you, may your heroic souls rest in peace!"

Leave from Quye River and go straight to Luoyang.

Along the way, Sima Guang obviously felt different, when he went, no one saw him off, desolate and desolate, pitiful, when he came back, all over the country rushed to greet him, and regarded him as a savior!

People are warm and cold, and officialdom is revealed!

Sima Guang saw very clearly that when he went, he was still a guilty body, but when he came back, he became an angel who brought peace. According to the practice of the Great Song Dynasty, if the envoy is meritorious, he will be reused when he comes back.

Guangguang has a very good background and complete experience, maybe in a few years, he will be able to worship the prime minister, can these people not go to the pole and stutter!

If it is replaced by Wang Ningan, most of them will not be ashamed of these guys who tend to be inflammatory. But the light is different, he hides everything in his heart, but on the surface he looks flattered, treating everyone with humility and kindness, gentle speech, and proper manners.

Soon, Guangguang conquered a large group of people with his elegant attitude, and many officials rushed to tell each other, saying that ten years later, Guangguang must be the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty!

In a group of praising voices, Guangguang was very calm, he felt that he had turned over the salted fish, there must be a noble person who helped him, so who could it be?

Without a doubt, Pang is the most likely.

Guangguang returned to Luoyang, first handed over his credentials to the yamen left behind, and His Majesty met him three days later.

Taking advantage of his free time, Sima Guang immediately prepared a gift and went to visit Pang Ji.

When he arrived at Lao Pang's mansion, he found that there were all carriages and horses outside, and there were many people, and it seemed that they were either rich or expensive, and there were many guests of Xiangye!

Menzi knew Sima Guang, not long ago, he was a distinguished guest of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but since the defeat of Qu Yehe, Pang Ji ordered that Sima Guang was not allowed to enter his door, and he did not accept letters and things...... Pang Xianggong blacked out the light!

"Little brother, I am returning from the envoy Xixia, fortunately I am not dishonored, this is also the cultivation of Xianggong, you go and say goodbye, Xiangye will meet me."

The light was silent, and a golden bean was stuffed into Menzi. When he was in Western Xia, he did this a lot, and his skills were extremely skilled.

Menzi was very embarrassed, but for the sake of Jin Douzi's face, he could only run in.

He walked for a long time, Guangguang was not arrogant or impatient, waiting outside, when he was in Western Xia, he saw that the nobles of Western Xia liked to boil eagles, and they had to stay up with the eagle and subdue it, so that they could be obedient and catch prey.

Maybe Pang Xianggong is also testing himself, endure it, you must endure it!

It took about a quarter of an hour for someone to come out of it, his face was very ugly, and he said coldly: "Xiangye let you in." ”

Guangguang lowered his eyebrows and entered the study.

As soon as he entered the door, Guangguang bowed to the ground and bowed again and again.

"The little nephew greets Shibo."

Guangguang waited for a long time, and his waist was about to be broken, and suddenly he heard a snap, which scared him!

"How can the old man be qualified to be your uncle? The old man still wants to live a few more years, and he is even more afraid of being poked in the back after death! ”

Sima Guang was really stunned, and his big head couldn't turn.

"What do you mean, Shibo? The little nephew did everything according to Shibo's orders...... If he is upset in any way, just scold. Guangguang said on his lips, but his heart was full of grievances, God is pitiful, he is desperate, and he ends up like this, which is too chilling!

Pang Ji saw that he refused to admit his mistake, and he was even more angry, rabbit cub, and he still had the face to say that the old man ordered it, do you want to buckle the basin on my head?

Pang Ji was furious, "You pretend to be confused, that's good, the old man asked you, when did I let you go to war, and when did I let you turn your back on your ancestors and bow to the thieves of Western Xia?" ”

Guangguang was even more aggrieved, he admitted it in the first half of the sentence, it was indeed his greed, but where did the rest of the words begin? When did he bow his head to Western Xia?

Guangguang attaches great importance to reputation, Pang Ji's accusation almost scolded him for being a traitor, Guangguang's little white face turned red, he suddenly lifted his robe and knelt on the ground.

"Shibo! The little nephew was deeply favored by Shibo, and he was repeatedly protected by him, and he was grateful for the five years. Although the little nephew did not dare to boast of his loyalty, but when he arrived in Western Xia, the little nephew was neither humble nor arrogant, and he never embarrassed the Great Song Dynasty. ”

When Pang Ji saw him kneeling down, his face was full of tears, and his heart softened, but when he thought of what he had done, old Pang Ji was furious!

"Sima Guang, don't talk about the previous things, the old man asked you, why did you promise the Qingyan of Western Xia to enter the Great Song Dynasty? You're an enemy, you know? ”

"Ahh

Guangguang was dumbfounded, "Shibo, isn't this your advice to the imperial court?" ”

"What? How did the old man come up with such a ridiculous suggestion? ”

Sima Guang was even more surprised, "Shibo, since you didn't mention it, why did you send me as an envoy to Western Xia?" ”

Pang Ji took a breath and couldn't help muttering, "The old man didn't-who protected you?" ”

The two of them were stunned, and Pang Ji said, "Tell me carefully, what's going on?" ”

Guangguang immediately replied: "It was the official who stayed in the yamen to send a decree to the little nephew, and also instructed the little nephew to go to Western Xia immediately, on the way, someone sent me a message, saying that the imperial court was ready to open up the benefits of green salt, in exchange for peace, and the bottom limit they gave was 500,000 stones, and the little nephew was worried that buying too much green salt in Western Xia would impact the salt merchants of the Great Song Dynasty, so the little nephew fought hard and overwhelmed the purchase quantity of 300,000 stones, this is what happened in the past, Shibo, the little nephew really did something wrong? ”

This time it was Pang Jifa's turn to be stupid, if it was really as Sima Guang said, but he misunderstood, and the fault should be on someone else.

"You didn't lie to the old man, did you?"

Guangguang was anxious, "The little nephew dares to swear to the sky, there will be no half a lie!" ”

Pang Ji was very puzzled, he didn't know how to judge, and after a while, Pang Ji was disappointed: "No matter what, you shouldn't let Xixia Qingyan in, you are cruel to the salt merchants of the Great Song Dynasty, and hand over the lifeblood of the people to the control of the Xixia people, you are too confused!" ”

Pang Ji waved his hand happily and drove Guangguang out.

Coming out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Sima Guang's head was still confused

Pang Ji was so angry that his beard was cocked, it didn't look like he was pretending, since it wasn't Pang Ji who helped, then who would protect himself? and Xixia exchanged green salt for peace, whose trick is it?

Hikari was about to cry, his brain was not enough for the first time......

In the next few days, the price of salt fell a lot, and it has already appeared 24 Wen a catty.

At this time, a strong voice of doubt finally came out, and some imperial historians publicly appeared on the table and impeached Sima Guang, saying that he colluded with Western Xia and misled the country and the people.

There are also people who scold, saying that the merchants work hard to sell salt, and they can't make ends meet, and they have no return, if this continues, I'm afraid that no one will do the salt business again, could it be that the Great Song Dynasty will eat the green salt of Western Xia? Didn't he hand over the lifeblood of the Great Song Dynasty to the Western Xia?

These people scolded more and more ugly, and gradually they also figured out that it was Wang Ningan and Wen Yanbo who made this decision to Zhao Zhen.

Although I don't know what the two of them said, but since the monarch and the ministers immediately sent envoys to Western Xia, it must have been done by the two of them!

Wen Yanbo, Wang Ning'an, Sima Guang!

It was these three guys who opened the door to thieves, introduced the green salt of Western Xia, destroyed the salt method, and moved the cake of the big guy.

Over the years, most of the important ministers who were degraded in the imperial court went to Luoyang, and over time, a large number of frustrated bureaucrats and literati gathered here, who often sang and composed poems, and made discussions.

Soon, some people called these three guys "three cowards", and they attacked them wantonly without the slightest politeness.

Among the three people, Wen Yanbo supervised the repair of the palace and hid in the construction site all day long, after Wang Ningan arrived in Luoyang, he checked out in depth, except for Zhao Zhen and Wen Yanbo, no one cared, and Wang Ningan's residence was tightly guarded, and outsiders couldn't enter at all.

There was only one unfortunate light left, and he lived in a caravansera, and at night people threw stones at his window, and rotten eggs, and even more excessively, roosters that had just been killed, and even black dog hoovesβ€”what a hatred to treat him as a demon and to be tempered!!

Guangguang only lived for three days, and he couldn't stand it, so he wanted to move out, but the front was blocked by an angry crowd, so he could only run through the back door of the pavilion.

As soon as he escaped, before he could react, two people grabbed his arms and sent them directly to a carriage, scaring Guangguang half to death, and said in his heart, this is the end!

How do you know that there is no fierce god in the carriage, only a person from the previous year, looking at him with a smile, Guangguang suddenly felt a chill, what is this guy going to do?

Robbery? Or is it a robbery......

"Introduce myself, I am Wang Ning'an, one of the three cowards known as you, Brother Junshi, are you interested in talking to me, a traitorous minister?"
