Chapter 117: Secret Story (2)
After arriving on the second floor, Zhao Pu seemed to be tired from walking for a while, so he directly found a place to sit down, until he rested for a while and his breath eased, he summoned the woman in black, pointed at Zhao Gu and said, "Show him all the records of that operation." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
The woman in black had already seen Zhao Gu, and she was only slightly surprised when she heard this, and then went to take a very thick stack of papers and handed it to Zhao Gu.
Zhao Gu took the paper, but he didn't look at it for the first time, but unconsciously glanced at the woman in black first, after not seeing her for a while, her figure seemed to be getting better and better, and the protrusion in front of her was almost about to break out.
For some reason, when he saw her, Zhao Gu couldn't control his eyes, and always wanted to linger on her for a while.
The woman in black found his gaze and snorted, "Beware of your Su Xiaocheng being angry." ”
With a dry cough, Zhao Gu withdrew his gaze, and then looked at the thick pile of information in his hand.
When Zhao Gu's gaze fell, his eyelids twitched.
"Zhao Yuan, male, twenty-one years old, from Hangzhou, has been a good reader of history since childhood, well-read and memorized, and has a lot of reputation when he grows up."
"Zhao En, male, twenty-five years old, from Luoyang, strong in martial arts and thoughtful."
"Zhao Yifa, male ......."
"Zhao wants to ......."
Zhao Gu flipped through the pages and found that on the more than 100 pieces of paper, all of them were recorded men surnamed Zhao, ranging from their teens to their twenties, some of them commented that they had written a full page, and some of them had a few words.
"It's ......."
Zhao Pu said with a smile on the side: "You don't need to know why I collect so much information about men surnamed Zhao, you just need to know that these people are the top among the young generation surnamed Zhao in the Great Song Dynasty, and you are the most top-notch among these many people, which is why I take a fancy to you." ”
"When did you pay attention to me? From when I escaped from prison with Su Xiaocheng? Zhao Gu asked.
"No, from the moment you enter the territory of the Great Song Dynasty." Zhao Pu replied.
"Huh?" Zhao Gu found that Zhao Pu really gave himself too many surprises today, and all this he told himself today was really incredible, and it was difficult to figure out what he was going to do.
However, judging from the information here, he should be able to reuse this group of people, because behind the information of several of the best men surnamed Zhao, someone made a simple comment, which can be an official rank of so-and-so, and Zhao Gu felt that the person with this inscription was Zhao Pu nine times out of ten.
Since it was determined that Zhao Pu tossed himself so much in order to discover his talent and then reuse it, Zhao Gu was finally relieved in his heart.
The woman in black glanced at him with disdain: "You don't think my father-in-law is trying to harm you, right?" ”
Zhao Gu looked at the woman in black, but his eyes slid down unconsciously, and said secretly: "This woman really can't open any pot, but her place is really big." ”
Zhao Pu waved his hand: "Okay, now that you know the truth, let's prepare for the Northern Expedition." ”
Zhao Gu answered yes, and then said goodbye and left, Zhao Pu asked the woman in black to send him off, and along the way, Zhao Gu naturally used his eyes to help the woman in black measure the measurements.
Before leaving, Zhao Gu met the disdainful gaze of the woman in black and asked, "I've known you for so long, and I still don't know what your name is?" ”
"I won't tell you." After the woman in black finished speaking, she turned her head and left, Zhao Gu smiled bitterly, and then planned to leave directly.
However, as soon as he raised his foot, the voice of the woman in black came: "Honey." ”
Zhao Gu turned his head, but where was the shadow of the woman in black, and couldn't help but think: "Honey? She wants to eat honey? Or is her name Honey. Oh, what a strange name. ”
At the same time that Zhao Gu found Zhao Pu, there were also more than a dozen guests at the home of another minister of the Great Song Dynasty, who should be more than a dozen officials to be exact.
The guests entered the mansion of the great man with serious expressions, but their steps were very light, for the porter had reminded them when they came in that the senior was reading a book in the study.
After waiting for more than an hour, the door of the study finally opened, and more than a dozen guests hurriedly greeted them. ”
This high-ranking official has a thin figure and meticulous hair combing, and it is Lu Mengzheng, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty.
After entering the study, everyone sat down, and Lu Meng spoke first: "Are you here for this Northern Expedition?" ”
A middle-aged man at the bottom hugged his fists: "Lu Xiang, you have been teaching us all these years not to use swords and soldiers, and to work the people and lose money, but this time Zhao Gu ......, we just can't figure it out, why are you ......." ”
"Why did you agree to the Northern Expedition?" Lu Mengzheng completed his words.
The middle-aged man nodded, as if he was afraid that Lu Meng was angry.
Lu Mengzheng glanced at the middle-aged man, and suddenly sighed: "Why is the old man willing to go on the Northern Expedition?" Although Zhao Gu swore to the Northern Expedition, he was not afraid of 10,000, but he was only afraid of what happened, and the old man was actually very worried in his heart. ”
As soon as the words changed, Lu Mengzheng said again: "But there is one thing Zhao Gu is not wrong, the recovery of the sixteen states of Yanyun must be done as soon as possible, and changes will occur later." ”
"Don't we still have an inner storehouse? It's enough to buy back the sixteen states of Yanyun with Liao, so why make such a big fight? Another asked.
The disappointment in Lu Mengzheng's eyes flashed, but he finally replied: "Taizu established the pile sealing warehouse back then, intending to save money to buy back the sixteen states of Yanyun, this original intention was good, but now that the times have changed, the Great Song Dynasty has been established for decades, and the sixteen states of Yanyun have been firmly controlled by the Liao State in these decades, and it is not easy to spend money to buy it." Now let's not say that the gold and silver in the inner treasury are the savings of my Great Song Dynasty for decades, and we must not act rashly, even if we really give the money to the Liao State, they can really return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to the Great Song Dynasty? The difficulty of this is no less than that of the Northern Expedition! ”
The crowd was silent, and after a long time, another person dared to say, "That...... Then let's not want Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, anyway, we and Liao have not committed any crimes in the past few years, and maybe there will be no more wars in the future, let's go our separate ways, maybe ....... ”
"Presumptuous." Before the official finished speaking, Lu Mengzheng directly stood up and drank him, so frightened that the descendant who had followed Lu Mengzheng for many years almost slipped off the chair.
"Cha Zhi, how can you have such thoughts? The wolf ambition of the Liao people, even if they don't invade us now, they won't attack in the future? Besides, the sixteen states of Yanyun have been Han territory since ancient times, how can it be people? Aren't you afraid that future generations will poke us in the backbone? ”
"Yes, the old man has never wanted to fight, so he has always taught you to be calm and calm, not to act rashly, but that doesn't mean that you will lose your integrity, you have to get by, you really disappointed the old man."
"Cha Zhi, didn't you say some time ago that you wanted to go back to your hometown? It just so happens that your hometown Gongzhou is old when you take office as a governor, so you can do this Zhizhou. ”
